February in the capital was still cold. Chu Zhaoren kowtowed on the brick floor outside the Cining Palace. Not long after, his forehead was broken and blood flowed down.

Most of the people serving here are palace maids, but they are used to big scenes. What is the eunuch's head is bleeding, and the people standing at the door are looking at each other and ignore them.

Fortunately, a female official came out and passed the decree of Empress Dowager Cisheng Li. The female official served the Empress Dowager and was also a figure in the palace. She had a similar status as the eunuchs in the various supervisors' yamen. She came out to pass on the decree lightly, then looked around and said, "You help Eunuch Chu up, wipe the wound and apply medicine to avoid getting on the wind!"

Several palace maids next to him hurriedly bowed to take the order and went forward to support Chu Zhaoren. Eunuch Chu dared to get up like this, kowtowed a few times on the ground, shouting: "The Queen Mother is so kind, I will definitely die!!

After shouting, he was helped up. There were many people serving Cining Palace. In just one or two words, someone brought hot water and a clean hand towel and wiped the wound clean. "The empress said that this matter has nothing to do with Eunuch Chu. Don't think too much. Eunuch Chu is still loyal and can do the same as usual."

The female official said gently. When Chu Zhaoren heard this, she struggled to get up and kneel down again. The female official said with a smile:

"There is no medicine on the forehead of Eunuch Chu. It's really dirty when Yu kneels down. It's cold outside. Eunuch Chu, go back quickly!"

Chu Zhaoren was mixed with feelings. When he heard this statement, his family probably was not suspected, but the empress dowager must be angry, otherwise why wouldn't he let himself go into the hall to reply?

What I thought about in my heart is one thing, and I would never dare to say it. Several palace maids over there put the medicine for him and wrapped it with clean white cloth. Chu Zhaoren took out a mandarin duck jade pendant and a few small flower buds made of gold from the pulp, and said with a smile:

"Since the Empress Dowager has the order, we will go back now. Today, our family has caused trouble for the sisters. I hope my sister will accept it."

He is not ten years older than the other party, but the eunuchs in the twelve dynasties are so polite to the female officials of the Cining Palace. After all, they are the personal servants of Empress Dowager Cisheng.

The female official who sent the order hesitated for a while, and smiled and took the jade pendant and Jinbiaoduo. The jade pendant was given to her own house. Jinbiaoduo was a bit relieved and thanked her. Then she walked out. His follower from the Imperial Horse Prison also followed her and hurriedly helped her. "Empress, Diancui took a jade pendant and five golden croakers, and Chu Zhaoren had already sent her away.

In the main hall of Cining Palace, Empress Dowager Cisheng Li sat upright in the seat, with Feng Bao and Zhang Jing standing next to him. A female official was reporting in front of him. Empress Dowager Li nodded and said casually: "The jade pendant and the golden turtle are allowed to leave the difference by themselves!"

The female official bowed and left, and Feng Bao and Zhang Jing's expressions did not change much, but they had to consider what they said later and not allow them to meet in Cining Palace. That was because the empress dowager was dissatisfied, but these gifts could still be accepted, which means that the matter was not yet perfect. "Zhang Jing, go and talk to Chu Zhaoren, and do it with peace of mind. Longxiang Zuowei and Huwei Camp have gone out. The other battalions have to go out to experience it. After all, it is a good rule." Zhang Jing bowed and took the order. Feng Bao next to him smiled and said jokingly: "Old Chu has some little thoughts, but he didn't expect that the trouble was so big. He was probably scared to death when he heard the news. Then he hurriedly came over to apologize. It was still the wise wisdom of the empress dowager."

Feng Bao was the only one who could speak casually in Cining Palace. The Empress Dowager of the Temple shook her head slightly and said with a smile:

"Chu Zhaoren wished he could kill Wang Tong. This is true, but if he made such a big noise in the north, he would not be so stupid if he didn't have the ability... All parties reported that the imperial guards were indeed a good way to practice martial arts, and the benefits were not only in the imperial guards' own homes, but also in the imperial guards everywhere, but also in the imperial guards' might. Anyone who was good for the country and the emperor was good for me, and the Ai family would definitely protect them. "The Empress Dowager's wiseness!

Feng Bao and Zhang Cheng bowed to praise each other at the same time. Empress Dowager Li raised his hand to the side. The palace maid who was serving him immediately handed over the tea. Empress Dowager Li sipped it. After that, her voice became colder and she spoke:

"When Longxiang Left Guard went outside the frontier, Ai's family remembered that there were emergency memorials from police officers on the frontiers on the nine sides, but Longlai Left Guard did not meet any Tartars. When Huwei Camp went to the frontier, it was so peaceful everywhere. Why did he meet? Feng Bao, Dongchang, wanted to go and investigate, and let the Jinyiwei go to investigate too." Feng Bao looked a little embarrassed on his face, and knelt in front of Empress Dowager Cisheng and said:

"The Empress Dowager, when it comes to matters outside the Great Wall, the Dongchang and the Jinyiwei are not able to use any effort. It is a bit difficult to find out what is going on. It is not that the servants don't do it with care. I will sue the Empress Dowager first here.

The nine borders of the Ming Dynasty are now in a defensive situation. In addition, the grassland is not as good as the inland of the Ming Dynasty. There is no need to mention the stakes and stakes. Empress Dowager Li also understood. After hearing this, she sighed but didn't say anything. She was so sank and said to Zhang Jing next to her:

"Huwei Camp is so good at fighting on the grassland. Go and see if the other battalions can handle this."

Compared to Feng Bao, Zhang Jing was much more respectful. When he heard the inquiry, he frowned and knelt down and replied, "Empress Dowager, Wang Tong can fight, this is not a bad thing. Maybe he has made such a record outside the Great Wall. I still don't believe it now. I have to send someone to check it and then confirm it." Empress Dowager Li nodded slowly and said, "The Ai family also thinks it is too strange. When the late emperor was there, he cut more than a hundred heads and came to report the victory. He killed thousands of them at once. He said it was true everywhere. Let's check it again!"

When the news came to Chu Zhaoren, the eunuch of the Imperial Horse Supervisor, and the eunuch of the Supervisor Lin Shulu, he naturally got it. There were eunuchs in charge of various places in the main hall where he was located, which was also a system. News from Chu Zhaoren came from time to time. When he heard that eunuch Chu was so embarrassed, many people were gloating.

The imperial guards went out of the capital to experience their experiences, regardless of whether things were good or bad. In the first lunar month, everyone wanted to celebrate the New Year in the palace, but they were sent out by the branch. No one was happy and they were very resentful to Yun Chu Zhaoren. When they heard such a embarrassment, everyone secretly applauded. Lin Shulu's behavior became reserved, but he just shook his head and smiled, and said, "Everyone is doing their own responsibilities. Eunuch Chu naturally has his own concerns.

However, in the afternoon, Lin Shulu, who had always been in the yamen until dark, left an hour earlier than before. He was the chief official, so everyone would not say anything. After Lin Shulu went out, he got into the sedan chair and smiled and said, "I was woken up by the sparrows in the yard this morning. I didn't sleep well. Take our house back to the residence to rest soon. I have some errands to do tomorrow." The little eunuch who carried the sedan chair and served said in unison, "Thank you hard" to carry the sedan chair back together.

Back at the yard, the only one of his close eunuchs in his house was Shuangxi. Lin Shulu entered the yard with a normal expression. When he walked past the threshold, he staggered and almost tripped. Shuangxi hurriedly stepped forward to support him. Lin Shulu stood there and smiled mockly, waved his hand and said, "Close the door first!"

Shuangxi closed the door, prepared tea and snacks on the side, and went to the main hall. When he entered the door ten times, the things in his hand almost fell down. Lin Shulu, who had always been calm and composed in front of the people, collapsed in the chair of the Grand Master. The eunuch Shuangxi hurried over, put down the things in his hand, and asked anxiously: "Big... Eunuch Lin, what's wrong with you..." "Shut up, our family is not dead yet, don't be so much trouble. Do you want to alarm all the people in the palace?"

Lin Shulu struggled to sit up from the chair, lowered his voice and scolded Shuangxi and quickly stepped back. Lin Shulu's voice was hoarse. He lowered his head and dulled for a long time before he said in a stern voice: "No wonder there is no news coming from Shanxi... But how is it possible..., the thousands of infantrymen in the Ming Dynasty, and they are all new recruits, actually cut off thousands of heads of the Tartars... How is this possible..."

The voice became more hoarse. At the end of his speech, Lin Shulu covered his face with both hands. Shuangxi next to him was already anxious. He said at a loss: "Don't scare the young, you are always calm, you are always..."

Before he finished speaking, Lin Shulu suddenly stood up and grabbed the tea bowl at his hand and was about to set it out. But he raised his arm and took a few breaths there, but then put it down and said hoarsely:

"No, no, they can't find anything, but the Yu family is in trouble, but the compensation is also the money, and the supply is just for them. Shuangxi, our family said, "You come and remember, there is still half an hour to close the palace gate. After going out, go to the third son's village. The sooner you can tell the better..."

In late February, Li, Zou and Lu met and discussed matters sooner or later as usual. This time, when Lu Wan took off his cotton robe, he smiled and said to Li Wenyuan: "The Ministry of War Military Selection Department has agreed. When the lord comes to the level, he will be promoted to the commander of the Jinyiwei according to the level, and will still be in charge of the Qianhu of Tianjin Wei." Li Wenyuan nodded there, but his face was not so relaxed, and he said with a calm face:
Chapter completed!
