In the circle of civil servants today, the hierarchy is very strict. Whether you are a student or a junior, you cannot have any unfair intentions towards your teachers and elders. If you harm your teachers and elders, even if you gain power for a while, you will not be able to survive in the circle.

Not only that, even if you are your boss, you cannot report him, otherwise even if you pull your boss off, no one will dare to use you again in the future.

However, this set of things is only applicable to the outer court, and it is useless in the inner court. The eunuchs in the palace will not be bound by the moral standards outside. Their world is so big, no matter how much they scold outside, it cannot be cursed in the palace, not to mention that the affairs of the inner court cannot be controlled by the inner court, and the power of the eunuchs in the inner court is so great and so tempting. Therefore, the godfathers and adopted sons in the palace kill each other, and the intrigue between superiors and subordinates is normal. After all, there is only one eunuch in the inner court, and there are too many palace servants in the palace.

Xiao Huai obtained evidence that could cause Xiao Zheng to die a few months ago, but not only did he not report his godfather, but instead spent several months helping Xiao Zheng smooth out the traces left by this matter, hoping to completely bury the matter into the soil.

I have to say that this is extremely rare.

Even though he had been a eunuch for more than ten years, he was shocked when he saw Xiao Zheng who had been in trouble for many years. He stood there silent for a long time, then looked at Xiao Huai and sighed heavily.

"You... are interested."

Xiao Huaigong bowed his head: "My son was a coward who was bullied by others in the palace. He was not a godfather. His son was probably still washing clothes at Shangyi Supervisor. Before his son entered the palace since he was a child, his family taught his son to be kind."

"This is what my son should do."

Xiao Zheng patted Xiao Huai's shoulder and exhaled a long breath.

"I remember this matter, no matter whether you have selfish intentions or not, it is my kindness to me in my heart."

The most cruel thing in the power field is. It is the most difficult thing to be able to maintain a little bit of conscience in it. Xiao Huai’s actions still make Xiao Zheng quite grateful.

Of course, if you look at it carefully, it is hard to say whether Xiao Huai has selfish intentions.

Because he is not the only one who is the eunuch!

The eunuch has another young prison with a higher qualification than him. If Xiao Zheng was defeated and he did not climb to that position, it would be more than worth the loss in the end.

Of course, guessing others with evil thoughts is the most undesirable thing. Only he knows what Xiao Huai thought in his heart, but he actually did a good thing for Xiao Zheng.

Xiao Huai walked behind Xiao Zheng, lowering his head slightly.

"Godfather, according to the information found by Meihuawei, Mr. Li is likely... coming to the capital."

"If Mr. Li enters the capital, will we still arrest him according to His Majesty's wishes?"

Xiao Zheng shook his head: "What Your Majesty is thinking about is to invite Marquis Jing'an to the capital. If he is willing to take the initiative to enter the capital, it will be a matter between their master and disciple, and it has nothing to do with us servants."

"At that time, I'll inform Your Majesty."

……………………

In June of the fifth year of Yuanzhao, the weather was hot.

In the capital, there is only some shade under the big tree in Liushufang. The wealthy families in Mingdefang in Yonglefang have already asked their servants to open ice cellars and use ice to cool down.

It is worth mentioning that because of Li Xin's arrival, there have been a lot of food in the capital over the past decade, such as the barbecue kebabs made by Li Xin in the early years, as well as the ice food in summer, etc., and many people are already selling it along the street.

In the scorching sun, a middle-aged man in his blue clothes looked like he was in his early thirties, alone, holding a fan in his hand, walking lazily on Desheng Street.

He was wearing a very ordinary cloth robe and didn't look very outstanding. There was no problem with the way he was on his body. The soldiers in the capital did not recognize who he was, so he let him walk into Yonglefang and arrive at the back door of Duke Chen's mansion.

He reached out and knocked on the door. The back door of the Duke's Mansion opened quickly. The doorman at the back door naturally recognized him. After seeing him, his face changed and he said in a lost voice: "Li..."

"Mr. Li, why are you here?"

This middle-aged man naturally came to Li Xin secretly. He deliberately did not repair his beard, and he was wearing ordinary clothes and carefully prepared Lu Yin and his body photos. He was alone and actually sneaked into the capital without anyone discovering it.

However, it doesn't matter if someone discovers it. He went to the capital to let the court discover it.

Li Xin smiled: "After staying in the south for a long time, I will naturally have to return to the capital. Is Ye Mao at home?"

“At home at home.”

The concierge nodded quickly and said, "The master has been in the study these days, and the villain guides Mr. Li."

“Hard work.”

Li Xin was familiar with Duke Chen's mansion. Most of the old people in Duke's mansion recognized him. Not long after, he came to the backyard of the Ye family. Before he could reach Ye Mao's study, Ye Mao, who was also dressed in coarse cloth clothes, ran out quickly. After seeing that it was Li Xin that he had really come, the black-faced man widened his eyes and swallowed his saliva.

"Uncle Li... why are you here?"

In Ye Mao's opinion, his uncle had completely betrayed the court. Even if he returns to Beijing in the future, he should have entered the capital, rather than suddenly appearing in the capital at this time.

Ye Mao even made plans to never meet in his life.

The reunion at this time made the Duke Chen, who was in a very bad mood, feel refreshed.

Li Xin patted Ye Mao on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Teacher Ye told me before his death that he would help him take care of the Ye family. I heard that the Ye family was in trouble in the south, so I went to the capital to take a look."

"It's not that my Ye family is in trouble..."

Ye Mao shook his head and smiled bitterly.

"Yes...forget it."

He took two steps back and bowed deeply to Li Xin.

"Ye Mao is very grateful to the Master for this trip to the Ye family."

Li Xin looked at the big man with a smile and laughed: "Whatever you say, you believe, no wonder you are forced to this point!"

Ye Mao reached out and scratched his head.

"You haven't invited me in and sit there? I'm afraid I won't be able to sit there after a while."

Duke Ye woke up from his dream and immediately made a way out and bent slightly towards Li Xin: "Please, Uncle Master."

"It's not easy for you to recognize me as your uncle at this time."

Li Xin shook his head and smiled: "But don't yell in front of others, as it will cause implication to the Ye family."

"Speaking of this, the Ye family was still implicated by me."

Ye Mao shook his head.

"Uncle Master helps the Ye family more."

The two of them entered the study room of the Ye family. After sitting down, Ye Mao personally poured a cup of tea for Li Xin. After Li Xin finished drinking the tea, he asked about the current situation of Zhenbei Army.

Although he had heard a lot of news in the secret division of Jizhou, compared with the Ye family, who actually controlled the Zhenbei Army, the intelligence accuracy was still much worse.

After asking a few simple questions, Li Xin nodded and said, "In this way, it is not a problem for Zhenbei Army to support it for another few months."

"It's been very difficult to keep it."

Duke Ye frowned and said, "If I were in Jizhou and I, it would not be a problem to stay until the end of the year, but I am not sure how long I can stay now."

"Court reinforcements..."

Li Xin only said four words. Just as he was about to continue speaking, a sudden burst of knocking on the door outside the study room came from outside.

"Master, someone is coming from the palace!"

Ye Mao's face changed slightly, while Li Xin's face remained unchanged.

“It’s arrived so soon.”

He put down the teacup in his hand and looked at Ye Mao with a smile.
