Chapter 42 Ministry

However, after walking out of the Chunyu courtyard, Qian Ning, who had a warm smile on his face, suddenly became gloomy. Zhu Qianhu noticed the change in Qian Ning's expression and said in a low voice, "Brother Qian invites you, Then Li Huan doesn't give Brother Qian any face, he really doesn't know how to flatter him."

Qian Ning frowned. From being a servant, he first got the eunuch Qian Neng's love and Liu Jin's favor, and later he even fell in love with Zhu Houzhao. Not to mention the others, his ability to read words and expressions and understand people's hearts is by no means comparable to ordinary people.

At this moment, Qian Ning recalled his conversation with Li Huan and Li Huan's attitude for a while, and realized the sense of alienation that Li Huan showed after knowing his identity.

"Should I send someone..."

After leaving the Yunlai Inn, Zhu Qianhu whispered to Qian Ning.

Qian Ning shook his head, smiled slightly and said, "It's okay, brother Li Huan may still be concerned about the previous matter, after all, we were wrong about this matter first."

As he said that, Qian Ning said to Zhu Qianhu, "Brother Zhu, please don't make any more troubles."

Zhu Qianhu patted his chest and said, "Brother Qian, don't worry, I will personally supervise this time, and there will never be any trouble again."

On the second day, Yunlai Inn
Qian Ning looked at the owner of the Yunlai Inn in astonishment and said, "What are you talking about, the couple of master and servant in Chunyu Courtyard already checked out of the room early yesterday?"

Is it because the desire to recruit Li Huan has gained the upper hand, what's more, Li Huan is still an employee of the Jinyiwei, and he will be able to win the favor of Eunuch Liu when he returns to Beijing. It may be difficult to be promoted to a thousand households of Jinyiwei, but It should be no problem to be promoted to a deputy thousand household.

At that time, I only need to recruit Li Huan to my subordinates, and then I will have an extra good helper.

Therefore, after having breakfast, Qian Ning went directly to the Yunlai Inn to look for Li Huan, hoping to get closer to Li Huan, and after returning to Beijing, he would find a way to transfer Li Huan to his hands.

However, what Qian Ning didn't expect was that Li Huan had already left, how could this not surprise Qian Ning deeply.

"This is not avoiding me!"

For some reason, Qian Ning thought of the kind of alienation Li Huan subconsciously showed towards him yesterday, and this idea came to his mind.

Thinking of this, Qian Ning's expression couldn't help but become gloomy. The innkeeper who was standing opposite to Qian Ning terrified subconsciously glanced at Qian Ning. He was startled by Qian Ning's expression and quickly lowered his head. I'm afraid it will become the target of Channing's vent.

Taking a deep breath, a strange smile appeared on the corner of Channing's mouth and he muttered softly: "Interesting, really interesting, do you think you can avoid it!"

When Qian Ning came to look for Li Huan, Li Huan and Lian Qiao had already boarded a big boat, and the big boat was going down the river.

From Hangzhou to the capital, taking the canal line of the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal, the speed is not slow, but it took about half a month. Li Huan and Lianqiao disembarked at the canal pier, and then came to the capital in a carriage.

The majestic capital with a century of vicissitudes is like a sleeping dragon lying on the ground. Li Huan and Li Huan got out of the carriage, paid the carriage fare, and looked up at the big characters on the tall city gate.

"The capital has arrived."

Lianqiao also had a smile on her face and said: "Yes, young master, we are finally here!"

Li Huan looked at the endless crowd and said, "Let's go, let's go to Beijing."

Not long after, Li Huan and Li Huan rented a small courtyard in the capital under the leadership of Yaxing people. Two silver dollars, this price is almost equal to the annual expenses of an ordinary family of four.

But to Li Huan, a mere 20 taels of silver was nothing. If he didn't want to be too high-profile, the silver he carried would not be a problem even if he bought a house in the capital.

With a place to stay, Li Huan was not in a hurry to go to the Jinyiwei yamen to report. Instead, he wandered around the capital for two days. news in .

Among them, several elders of the pavilion jointly wrote a letter, imploring the emperor to eradicate several eunuchs headed by Liu Jin, Gu Dayong, etc., there was also news that the emperor was planning to transfer a group of people from Jinyiwei to listen to them, and there was even news that the eunuch Liu Jin often seduced The news that the emperor left the palace privately.

Anyway, in the place of teahouses and restaurants, there are all kinds of news, which is true and which is false, and it is impossible to distinguish which news may be true, or it may be a rumor at all, so it is best to listen to these news Untrustworthy attitude.

On the third day after arriving in Beijing, Li Huan had almost rested and heard a lot of news, so he took his transfer documents and went to Jinyiwei Yamen to report.

Jinyiwei is divided into Nanbeizhen Fusi, Beizhen Fusi is responsible for arrest, torture, execution, etc., and Nanzhen Fusi is in charge of the law and military discipline of the guard. Simply put, Beizhen Fusi is the person who works outside Jinyiwei. Nanzhen Fusi supervises Jinyiwei's internal discipline.

The Yamen that Li Huan went to report this time was the Fusi Yamen in Jinyiwei North Town. When Li Huan handed over his transfer document, Li Huan was called in not long after.

In a side hall of the yamen, a man dressed in Jin Yiwei's Qianhu robe sat there, looked at Li Huan and said, "Are you Li Huan who was sent to Beijing by Fujian Qianhu?"

Li Huan bowed his hands and said, "My lord, it's Li Huan!"

After looking at Li Huan for a while, Chen Ke nodded slowly and said: "You should be clear, although you have the title of a hundred households, there are too many people who lead Jinyiwei with hundreds of households, thousands of households, and even Tongzhi."

Li Huan is naturally aware of this. Titles are titles and do not represent real power. Whoever asked the emperor of Ming Dynasty to reward meritorious officials? People are equivalent to giving an honor.

Perhaps a Jinyiwei Tongzhi has no school captains or warriors who can be used, not even a Jinyiwei's real power Xiaoqi has as many subordinates.

Looking up at Chen Ke, he said, "Li Huan knows about it, please ask your lord to assign me a job."

Chen Ke was quite satisfied with Li Huan's attitude. After all, at the local level, Jinyiwei's hundreds of households commanded hundreds of Jinyiwei.

But just now he didn't believe Li Huan could not understand what he said, but Li Huan's reaction made him look at it differently. There are not many people who can be so flattered or humiliated.

After pondering for a while, Chen Ke said: "Since that's the case, I will order you to be in charge of a small flag brocade guard and be responsible for patrolling the royal hunting grounds."

Li Huan was even ready to be a polished commander, but he didn't expect to be able to have the real power of a small flag, and ten people under his command could listen to him, which was already quite preferential treatment for him.

"Thank you, my lord."

Chen Ke nodded and said: "Recently, His Majesty and Eunuch Liu may go to the royal hunting ground. You must do a good job of patrolling. If anything happens, you will lose your head."
