"Housekeeper?"
Gu Qiang didn't realize what the person in front of him was saying, but Shen Qianshan raised the corners of his lips and smiled, "It turns out to be the manager, so since you already know that I am a general, why don't you give me some face? Don't continue to cause trouble in this place." Shen Qianshan was not prepared to continue making trouble with the person in front of him. It was quite ridiculous to me that a housekeeper came to Lingyin Pavilion and even threatened to find a girl. Come drink with him again.
Gu Qiang didn't understand why the people around her were laughing. She looked at the people in front of her carefully and thought about what he had just said. Then she realized that weren't all the housekeepers in the palace eunuchs? It is really strange that a eunuch who is so confident must find a girl to drink with him.
The man in front of him seemed to have realized that the people around him were laughing at him, and he patted the table hard, "Everyone be quiet, how could you commoners know how much salary I, a housekeeper, get in a month? Let me tell you, my monthly salary is enough for you to live on for a lifetime."
"It seems that the housekeeper is not enough." The more Shen Qianshan listened to him, the more he felt like laughing, and it was still the kind of uncontrollable laughter. Unexpectedly, on the first day when the business was booming, he found such a person for himself. Fun.
"What's impossible and what's not possible? Do you know that as a housekeeper, my monthly salary is much more than that of your generals?"
The person in front of me seems to have drank a lot, and his words have begun to sound a little awkward, but he must talk to Shen Qianshan carefully. Shen Qianshan has nothing to do. He has other things to do, so he simply stops. Listen to him here.
"Okay, how much do you give away in a month? Is it enough to make all of us envious?"
"I tell you, I make one hundred taels a month!"
…
The fuss was no longer interesting. The housekeeper was probably drunk. Shen Qianshan was quite amused and asked his men to help him return to the palace. As for facing him, he would I don't know what kind of punishment it will be. He left such a big person outside and went back smelling of alcohol. I'm afraid he won't even be able to get the one hundred taels of salary this time.
"Although he is a bit ugly, he is quite cute. However, if others really find out, he probably won't be able to serve as the housekeeper for much longer."
Shen Qianshan did not have any impression of this person, but he did know him, which showed that he was probably the real internal affairs manager, but he had never paid much attention to it, either before or now. It is normal for these people to have no impression.
But since even the people from the palace have come over, there probably won't be any big problems in the future. At least no one will come to affect their business again.
"The Concubine." Shen Zhongbai stepped into a quiet courtyard in the palace, and happened to catch up with the people in the courtyard playing chess under the trees to enjoy the cool air. The people playing chess didn't seem to welcome Shen Zhongbai's arrival. He just nodded lightly and said, "Your Majesty is here, why don't you let your servants inform you?"
The person Shen Zhongbai was looking for was none other than the concubine of his imperial grandfather. Because of his special status, she was not buried with him, but had been living in the palace. He had a cold temperament, so he had been living in a remote place. , many people in the palace did not know her existence.
"If there's nothing else, just step back first. I probably can't help you with what you want to do."
The person called Taifei seemed a little unhappy that her interest in playing chess was interrupted, or maybe she was disgusted with the person in front of her, so she didn't even raise her eyes to look at him.
"If I remember correctly, the concubine should have a token left by the emperor in her hand, right?" Shen Zhongbai has not been going well in the recent period. When he wanted to get close to Feng Yao and Gu Huaian, , his people gradually discovered something was wrong between the two of them, for example, they investigated the cause of Grandpa Huang’s death...
After Shen Zhongbai thought carefully for a day and night, he finally figured out everything. Of course, he gradually discovered some clues about Feng Yao's identity. For example, in addition to Huang Hao at that time, , no one knows his true identity.
Calculated according to time, if Shen Qianshan was indeed injured after that battle, he would have recovered from his injuries in two or three months before returning to the military camp, changing his identity and returning to Kyoto. , it’s not impossible, it’s just...
I don’t know how to describe silence. In short, when I came into contact with Shen Qianshan before, I always thought that Shen Qianshan was a difficult and aloof person, so I didn’t have too much contact with him. He, but now, he feels that this Feng Yao is much easier to get in touch with than Shen Qianshan. The temperament and temperament between the two are also very different. I don't know if I think too much. I feel that these two people are similar in some ways, but they are very different, like two completely different people.
"That's what the emperor left for me. How could I give it to you so easily? Besides, you are the emperor now. If you want any token, just make one yourself. Why bother? Are you coming to snatch something from me, a lonely old man?"
The concubine sighed and pushed away the chess player in front of her. "Go down tomorrow. I have something to do. Please come back later."
"The High Concubine doesn't know something. There are certain things that only that token can do. Otherwise, it would not be easy to ask the High Concubine for something."
Shen Zhongbai has sorted out everything in the past few days. Lou Mingyue and Lou Ziqi still have military power in their hands, which can be regarded as a huge obstacle in the process of unifying military power. What's more, in Bei'an Country Among them, there is far more strength than Lou Ziqi who can compete with him.
King Cheng of Northern Xinjiang, this time, the person Shen Zhongbai is targeting is him.
King Cheng probably never dreamed that even if he rejected Shen Qianshan's invitation, he still could not get over Shen Zhongbai's surveillance. Although this matter was nothing to him, but this thing in his hand The army was indeed left to him by Shen Qianjun. As long as he didn't have Shen Qianjun's token, he would never hand over the military power in his hands no matter what. There was absolutely no doubt about this. But now he must get the army in King Cheng's hands before he can be confident and able to protect himself. This is something he must never give in to.
Shen Zhongbai had already expected this, so he needed the token in the hands of the concubine.
"Really? I didn't know that the token left by the emperor could be of such great use. However, if you are not prepared to tell me what it is used for, I will not use it. Cards for you."
The concubine really didn't like the father and son. She thought that when Shen Qianjun died, she actually knew it, so they were not the culprits of this matter, but Shen Zhongbai's father killed his siblings. In order for you to sit on the throne safely, to be honest, if it weren't for his Queen Mother's son, this throne would never have been his turn anyway.
"This is too dark, so you don't need to know. Knowing too many things may not be a good thing for you. It is better to give the token to me earlier and keep the token next to you. Although you can still miss Grandpa Huang, But since this person has passed away, even expressing gratitude is of no use."
Shen Zhongbai still had a smile on his face, exactly as he always did, always hiding a knife in his smile and killing people inadvertently. Today, the purpose of his coming here is the same.
Although some people have nothing left to use, they cannot let their servants do it. They should still do it themselves and send them away in person.
"If you are not prepared to tell what you have used it for recently, I will not give you the token."
The concubine's attitude was also very clear. After all, those things were left to her by the late emperor. Why should she leave these things to someone she hated for no reason
"I think that the concubine would put such an important thing in her bedroom. If you are not prepared to give it to me, I will get it myself." Shen Zhongbai said and was about to enter the door. As soon as the concubine heard this, she quickly stepped forward to stop him, but she didn't expect that this was Shen Zhongbai's plan from the beginning.
"The concubine is so nervous and won't let me in, does that mean that this token is really in the bedroom?" Shen Zhongbai casually sealed the concubine's acupuncture points, "The concubine is too tired, like this Let’s leave things to our juniors.”
The concubine has always lived here without any precautions, because no one would bother her at all on weekdays. Who would have thought that one day she would be treated like this? The token was not hidden very deep at all, it was just kept beside the pillow. Anyone with eyes would be able to find it after entering.
"You will be punished..."
After Shen Zhongbai entered the room, he found the token without any effort. He didn't forget it after walking out of the room and helped the concubine untie the acupuncture points.
"If I remember correctly, this brand was the reason why the concubine was able to avoid being buried at that time, right?"
