The Child Emperor

There are only six ministers in the Qinzheng Hall, Prime Minister Yin Wuxian, Zuocha Censor Xiao Sheng, Right Inspection Censor Shen Mingzhi, Minister of Personnel Feng Ju, Minister of Rites Yuan Jiuding, Minister of War Jiang Juying, and Han Ruzi have all seen it. There was a eunuch with an unfamiliar face, and looking at the clothes, it should be the new supervisor of the Central Division.

The entourage could not enter the hall, so Han Ruzi and the King of the East Sea personally carried the official seal and held it in their hands for the six ministers to check.

The whole process was very brief, and it could be said to be hasty. The ministers didn't even come close, but just glanced at it from a distance, and Yin Wuhao asked, "Are you okay?" The others nodded at the same time.

Xiao Sheng's expression was a little stern, but he did not speak. Standing in the Hall of Diligence, he regained the bearing of an important minister. No matter what he was thinking, he would not show it easily.

The eunuch sent the two visitors out of the Qinzheng Hall and stood under the steps. The King of the East Sea said doubtfully, "This is the end?"

"This is just the beginning."

The four contenders still have half a year to win the support of the minister.

"I mean it's that simple to read the official seal? Why was this step necessary in the first place? It's superfluous." The King of the East Sea was still puzzled.

The two parted outside the palace gate, and the King of the East Sea mounted and said, "Don't go out in the afternoon, I'll find you."

Han Ruzi took his entourage to the military governor's mansion, and officially handed over the official seal. The official who received the seal checked it carefully to make sure that the potholes on it were old.

On the way home from the Grand Governor's Mansion, Du Chuanyun let out a long sigh of relief, and then said a little disappointedly, "I thought something would happen, so I could fight."

"What do you want to happen?" Han Ruzi asked with a smile.

Before Du Chuanyun patted the horse, he drove with Juan Hou, "Stealing prints and stealing prints, I didn't sleep all night last night, and I inspected Hou's mansion with my grandfather, and I didn't even see a mouse. I thought there would be something wrong during the day. Well, it turned out to be so peaceful. Oh, it's boring, remember the days you just left the palace? That's interesting."

Han Ruzi laughed and looked at it after the fact. It is interesting to live in a catastrophe, but as a party, he hopes that the future will be calm, even if it is boring.

"The longer you wait, the more ruthless you will be." Han Ruzi said.

"Who shot? Us, or someone else?"

Han Ruzi smiled without saying a word, because he was not sure, and Yang Feng couldn't predict it. He just suggested that Marquis Tien would wait and watch the changes, win over people's hearts, and make plans when he can really integrate the various forces into a real force.

For Han Ruzi, everything had just begun. For the King of the East China Sea, the King of England, and Wang Qi, it was all the same, with the exception of the champion, who was one step away from the throne, so he could not wait to fit in and rush on immediately.

"Let's go to Zuixianlou for dinner." Han Ruzi said.

Du Chuanyun cheered and led the way. A group of seven or eight people went straight to the Zuixian Building in Xiaochunfang. It was noon, and there were many people eating. Du Chuanyun only came here occasionally more than half a year ago, but he seemed very familiar, and greeted the shopkeeper and the guys warmly. It seems to be a regular customer, plus there are many people, the restaurant does not dare to neglect.

The group was taken to the private room upstairs. Han Ruzi told the entourage not to be polite. Anyway, there were no other guests, so everyone gathered around a table to eat.

These entourages are not servants of the mansion, but bodyguards brought by the grandfather and grandson of the Du family. They are all from Jianghu. You can't drink wine indiscriminately.

Du Chuanyun was so greedy, he even wanted a bowl of vinegar to temporarily subdue the wine bug in his stomach. Although his grandfather Du Motian stayed in the mansion and didn't follow him, he still didn't dare to drink.

Apart from the lack of wine, this meal was very enjoyable, there was nothing to say about the dishes, and Juan Hou was also very easy-going. Everyone told some interesting stories and laughed frequently.

Do not want to be a cook here, Han Ruzi wanted to invite him over, but Du Chuanyun shook his head, "Do not want to be a weirdo, don't disturb him when he is in charge."

When I was about to eat, there was a noise outside the private room, like a group of people asking for wine and food, rude and rude, mixed with a lot of curse words, not like ordinary guests.

The noise got louder and louder, Du Chuanyun didn't fight for Hou Juan's approval, got up and jumped out of the private room, quarreled a few words, and came back again, the noise outside still didn't disappear.

"Someone really came to make trouble. It hasn't been a day or two. I heard from the shopkeeper that this group of people came every three times and five times, and it has been more than half a year."

"Don't mind your own business, Zuixianlou has his own way," said an attendant.

"Hehe, it's not really a nosy thing, there are some of our acquaintances among the troublemakers." Du Chuanyun sold it for a while, reached out and brought a plate of leftover fish, and ate the tails cleanly.

Not long after, someone came to see him in the elegant room, and it turned out to be someone Han Ruzi knew, the iron-headed Hu San'er who had protected him, a tall and strong black man.

Hu San'er clasped his fists and saluted, pushed Du Chuanyun away, and sat next to Hou Juan, "I'm sorry, I disturbed Hou's dinner. If I knew you were here, we'll be here tomorrow instead."

Han Ruzi smiled and said, "Long time no see, Brother Hu, what are you doing? Are you coming to Zuixianlou for an account?"

"It is indeed a debt, but it is not Zuixianlou who owes the debt, but a lifeless one."

"Don't die? How much you owe, I'll pay it back for him."

Du Chuanyun stood aside and laughed, but Hu San'er didn't say anything.

"Brother Hu, don't you believe me?"

Hu San'er patted the table lightly, "Since I have caught up, I have something to say."

"Brother Hu, please speak."

Hu San'er glanced at the others, and most of those bodyguards nodded to him, obviously knowing each other.

"Do you remember Kuang Taiyi from Sanliuxiang?"

Han Ruzi certainly remembered that Kuang Caiyi had persuaded the troublemakers to retreat at the Marquis Mansion, and was later killed twice by the riverside.

Hu San'er continued: "Don't tell me that Kuang Caiyi once colluded with two imperial eagle dogs in the Zuixian Building to work for the 'Guanghua Group Tigers', but he has always refused to show evidence, we belong to Kuang Taiyi. Friend, of course you can't let things go by in the dark."

Du Chuanyun huddled with an entourage and said with a smile, "Tie Tou, when did you become friends with Kuang Taiyi?"

"A friend of a friend, can't you?" Hu San'er said angrily, glared at Du Chuanyun, then eased his expression, and said to Hou Juan, "This matter has nothing to do with Hou Juan, just just in time, I'll come with you. Say."

"Don't kill Kuang Taiyi because of me." Han Ruzi couldn't stay out of it, don't kill Kuang Taiyi, it's all for him.

Hu San'er shook his head, "Marquis Juan is not from the rivers and lakes, and many people saw it at the time. Don't let me kill you suddenly, Marquis Juan didn't know about it beforehand, and didn't give any orders, right?"

Han Ruzi reluctantly nodded.

Hu San'er got up, "I heard that Hou Juan is doing something big, don't waste your time ignoring us reckless men."

Du Chuanyun said with a smile: "Kang Caiyi has been dead for more than half a year, so you just come to Zuixianlou to eat and drink? Why didn't you find a deadly fight?"

"It's none of your business, go home and ask your grandfather." Hu San'er strode out of the elegant room. He was very familiar with Du's grandfather and grandson, and his mouth was fierce, but his friendship was not shallow.

Du Chuanyun didn't care, but still had a smile on his face, "Don't worry about Hou Juan, these guys are afraid of dying, so they don't dare to fight with him. If you eat and drink for free, it will probably stop."

Do not die has not come forward.

When Han Ruzi left, he saw the group of troublemakers, including Hu Saner, a total of eleven people, eating and chatting around a table, occasionally shouting loudly, causing the surrounding diners to look sideways, guys. It's calm, serving wine and food normally, only treating them as a group of irritable guests.

Back at the House of Marquis, Han Ruzi invited Du Motian.

Du Motian knew this a long time ago and said with a smile, "You don't need to worry about Hou Juan, this is a small grievance in the arena, Kuang Taiyi has a group of friends, don't let them be less popular, but there are also a few brothers who are good friends. Everyone, you know me, I know you, and sooner or later you can talk about things. Jianghu has its own solutions, and the tired Hou can rest assured."

Han Ruzi still felt a little weird, but he really didn't have the energy to intervene in this matter.

As dusk approached, the King of the East Sea hurried over, with Zeng Fucheng following behind, there was no time to inform him.

The King of the East Sea broke into the study and asked directly, "Have you heard?"

"What did you hear?" Han Ruzi put down the book, Yang Feng and Meng E didn't come back outside, and he didn't receive any special news.

Zeng Fucheng saluted Marquis Juan with a wry smile and exited the room.

"King Ying went to Qinzheng Hall to hand in the official seal in the afternoon. You can't imagine who he is recommending."

"who is it?"

"The Queen Mother!" The King of the East Sea looked at Han Ruzi, "Aren't you surprised?"

"What else can be more surprising than fighting for the throne and choosing the emperor? Besides, the age and character of the King of England are exactly the kind that the Queen Mother appreciates."

"But isn't the queen mother already... crazy?" The King of the East Sea found a chair and sat down, furious.

"It is said that the queen mother has good times and bad times. This is probably the arrangement she made when she was sober."

The East Sea King snorted and said nothing.

"Is the empress dowager a first-rank minister?" Han Ruzi asked.

"The queen mother is a first-class and also has a seal, but no one can call her a 'minister' or a 'idle official'. This is a loophole, which was left on purpose by the hopeful." The East Sea King stared at Han. Ruzi, "Could it be like this: We fought the champion Hou to the death and the other, and when we both lost, the queen mother suddenly took action and solved all the threats at once. She was just pretending to be crazy!"

"I will always guard against the queen mother, no matter if she is crazy or fake."

"I should contact my mother as soon as possible, she is in the palace, she must know something..." King Donghai stood up without saying goodbye, and walked outside, bumping into Yang Feng.

"you know……"

"I know."

The King of the East Sea hesitated for a moment and walked out, he disdain to ask Han Ruzi's counselor for advice.

"The queen mother is going to take action?" Han Ruzi asked.

"Probably not, don't worry about the queen mother, I'll take you to see Guo Cong tomorrow."

Yang Feng's concerns are always different from others. The queen mother, champion marquis, hopeful people... These threats that seem to be imminent, he doesn't seem to care about them, and just wants to "please" those scholars.

"I went to Zuixianlou today and saw someone looking for life-threatening trouble."

It was Yang Feng who introduced him to Marquis Juan. Compared with Du's grandfather and grandson, this cook is more like Yang Feng's "confidant".

"He can solve it himself." Yang Feng didn't care more than Du Motian, "Send a letter to the Northern Army, those noble children can go home."
