"snort."
Although Wei Zhongxian's words pierced his mind, Hakka didn't panic at all.
She didn't speak, just sneered and stared straight into Wei Zhongxian's eyes.
Keshi understood very well that even though she was the emperor's wet nurse, the most important reason why she was so powerful in the harem was because of Wei Zhongxian's cooperation.
Although Wei Zhongxian is an old salted dog and seems to have become somewhat useless, after all, this old salted dog has been in the palace for so many years. It is deeply rooted and canine teeth are intertwined. In addition, his alliance with the Hakka family has been very smooth. Accordingly,
The conflicts are basically no longer serious problems.
The Hakka family also needs Wei Zhongxian, an old picky dog, to protect her interests and ensure this delicate balance.
She further understood that only by maintaining the bargaining chip in the palace was her greatest asset in front of Li Yuanqing.
At this time, seeing Hakka's cold, yet somewhat forlorn eyes, Wei Zhongxian felt a little soft-hearted for a moment.
Water flows to lower place, man goes to higher position.
Eunuch Wei also understood very well that the only connection between him and the Hakka family was interest, and the rest was just a mist.
Especially the relationship between the emperor and the Hakka family was much closer than him. Even if he knew that the Hakka family had some shady activities, his Eunuch Wei still had to endure it, and even made it convenient for the Hakka family.
door...
Everything is for the sake of the overall situation.
After a moment, Eunuch Wei said: "We are all members of our family, why should we get into such a tense situation over some trivial matter? I made a mistake just now. I apologize to you."
Eunuch Wei said, and slapped his old face hard.
Keshi frowned slightly, but for a moment, her eyes softened a lot, but her words were still a little cold: "You don't have to be like this."
Wei Zhongxian was not in a hurry and said slowly: "It is indeed a way for you to ask Li Yuanqing for help. However, do you know that it is easier to ask the gods than to send them away. In addition, Li Yuanqing cannot get away from the crisis in Liao. This matter
, the harm outweighs the benefit. What's more, even if I agree to your condition, I'm afraid, Li Yuanqing may not come next. This person is really a poisonous snake. Either he will transform into a dragon and ascend to heaven, or he will die without a burial place! No way!
There will be a middle!”
However, the Ke family did not buy Eunuch Wei's account and said coldly: "If you and I don't have military power, how will we solve it if unforeseen troubles arise? Don't forget, those who want to kill you and me will definitely not
One person and two people!”
Eunuch Wei nodded: "The Za family has also thought about this matter. The Za family has also been planning carefully. However, this will take time. Moreover, the current situation may not be as bad as you think..."
…………
The negotiation with Eunuch Wei ended on bad terms, but Hakka remained quite calm and did not break up with Eunuch Wei.
Returning to her palace, Hakka dismissed all the maids and eunuchs, and soaked in the huge bathtub alone.
Although the water in the bathtub was very hot, Keshi's heart gradually cooled down.
At this time, she had somewhat understood why Li Yuanqing did not respond to her request in person... It is possible that Li Yuanqing had seen that Wei Zhongxian, an old dog, would never let go.
Wei Zhongxian's several nephews have all been granted titles and uncles, but her son, the emperor's younger brother, Hou Guoxing, is only the commander of the Jinyi Guards at this time, and her brother Ke Guangxian, but
This is the Jinyiwei Qianhu.
Coupled with the matter of the woman who was brought into the imperial court for the little emperor Tianqi... Keshi suddenly felt a shudder.
Could it be that Wei Zhongxian, an old bastard, wanted to kick her away after everything was done?
For a moment, Ke Shi became more and more frightened as she thought about it. It seemed as if the wind and cranes were everywhere around her and could kill her at any time.
no.
She must go to Li Yuanqing to find out about this matter and find the answer personally from Li Yuanqing.
Just as Keshi was about to climb out of the tub, she suddenly remembered that Wei Zhongxian was as shrewd as it was impossible not to send someone to monitor her at this time...
This old pickled dog is really...
Keshi slowly lay down in the tub again and began to think deeply.
…………
At this time, Wei Zhongxian also returned to his residence and directly ordered in a cold voice: "Go and recruit Xiaodouzi to the Zajia family!"
"Yes." The little eunuch beside him didn't dare to neglect and hurriedly went to recruit Xiaodouzi.
Not long after, Xiaodouzi hurried over and knelt down on the ground with a thump, "I have seen my ancestors."
Wei Zhongxian stared coldly into Xiaodouzi's eyes, trying to find any clues in Xiaodouzi's eyes.
Unfortunately, there was some fear in Xiaodouzi's eyes, but not too much panic. Wei Zhongxian couldn't tell much at the moment.
After a moment, he said in a cold voice: "Xiaodouzi, today, you are with the Hakka family. What exactly did she do? Don't miss a word, tell the Zajia everything!"
Xiaodouzi suddenly had a clever idea in his mind.
As expected, the general had guessed it.
Eunuch Wei, this is bound to happen. Fortunately, he was prepared.
He hurriedly and respectfully recounted the speech he had prepared to Eunuch Wei.
When Wei Zhongxian heard this, he couldn't help but frown tightly. For a moment, he stared directly into Xiaodouzi's eyes and said, "You mean, the Hakka family went out of the city today? But they left you in the house?"
Xiaodouzi hurriedly said respectfully: "Returning to our ancestors, when I went to serve at the house of Madam Feng Sheng today, Madam Feng Sheng said to me that I was tired from serving the emperor last night, so I specially rewarded me with a handful of golden beans.
Go to the wing to rest. The slave was very tired, so he didn’t think much about it. He ate some food and went to sleep. When the slave woke up, it was already dark. But the saint’s wife hadn’t come back yet. The slave had just gone to find the saint.
Madam, I asked for instructions on what happened tonight, but I happened to meet Mr. Hou. Mr. Hou told the slave that the Holy Lady had returned to the palace. He told the slave that when the slave wakes up, it would not be too late to go and serve the Holy Lady tomorrow. He will reward her well.
Servant."
After saying that, Xiaodouzi hurriedly and carefully took out a small cloth bag from his waist, and opened it respectfully in front of Wei Zhongxian. The golden beans and cakes were all inside.
Xiaodouzi hurriedly and respectfully said to please: "Ancestor, this is the reward that the Holy Lady and Mr. Hou will give to this slave today. I am willing to dedicate all of it to my ancestor."
Wei Zhongxian's eyes couldn't help but narrow slightly.
At this point, he already believed eight percent of Xiaodouzi's words.
Xiaodouzi is a very smart kid. He knows the rules in the White House very well, especially the rules around him. In this kind of thing, he should never dare to mess around.
But how did Eunuch Wei know that before entering the palace, Xiaodouzi's heart had turned into a red heart for Li Yuanqing.
For a moment, Wei Zhongxian's face softened a lot, and he said with a smile: "Xiaodouzi, you did a good job. The Za family has always believed that you are a good boy. Get up. You can use this gold. The Za family is old.
, it’s no use asking for all this gold.”
Seeing that Wei Zhongxian's tone relaxed, Xiaodouzi already understood that this matter was probably going to be over, but he still did not dare to neglect, and said hurriedly and respectfully: "Old ancestor, these golds are all for the sake of our ancestors, Xiaodouzi is the one who got away with it."
Come. Ancestor, please leave 70% and leave 30% to me. I have always wanted to honor my ancestors and thank my ancestors for taking care of me over the years, but I have never been able to find the opportunity. Now, Xiaodouzi can make money.
Oh, ancestor, would you accept some of this gold?"
As he said that, Xiaodouzi knelt down respectfully in front of Wei Zhongxian and kowtowed desperately.
By this time, Wei Zhongxian's last doubt had dissipated, and he couldn't help but touch Xiaodouzi's head very affectionately.
"Xiaodouzi, the Zajia family has known for a long time that you are a good boy. Get up quickly. Since you are so filial, the Zajia family will help you. However, you and the Zajia family will share half of this gold."
Wei Zhongxian smiled and grabbed a handful of golden beans from the small cloth bag, but after a moment, he put the golden beans into the small cloth bag again and said with a smile: "Little Douzi, now, these golden beans are given to you by the Za family. You
Do you feel safe holding it?"
Xiaodouzi couldn't help but be overjoyed and kowtowed to Wei Zhongxian: "Thank you, ancestors, for the reward. Thank you, ancestors, for the reward."
Looking at the excited Xiaodouzi, Wei Zhongxian smiled and said: "Xiaodouzi, you did a good job. However, the Zajia now has one more thing to ask you to do. If you do it well, the Zajia will reward you with ten handfuls of golden beans!"
…………
Seeing Xiaodouzi leaving happily, Wei Zhongxian couldn't help but let out a long breath, as if he had aged ten years all of a sudden.
When the book is used, I will regret it less.
Before, Wei Zhongxian had never understood the true meaning of this sentence, but now, he understood that there were still too few people available to him.
At this time of year, the rain is coming and the wind is blowing.
He could only grit his teeth and move forward step by step.
…………
Xiaodouzi quickly returned to his kennel, carefully closed the door, and took off his clothes with some difficulty. Just as he was about to lie on the bed, he discovered that the clothes on his back were already soaked through.
Not bad, not bad.
The general planned and arranged everything in advance, otherwise, he might not be able to pass today's test.
Wei Zhongxian, the old dog, wants him to keep an eye on the Hakka family tomorrow... Could it be that he has already become suspicious of the Hakka family?
This matter must be reported to the general as soon as possible.
…………
The tense atmosphere in the palace seems to have begun to spread to the people.
Early in the morning, Ye Qiming, the legitimate son of former cabinet chief Ye Xianggao, wore only a green cloth robe and took a boy with him for a walk on Qianmen Street.
To be continued...
