205. Correct operation of women disguising as men
King Heng Yuanhuan returned to the palace, and with a wave of his sleeve, he lifted the hot tea that had just been brought to the ground.
The subordinates and the servants in the royal palace knelt on the ground, not daring to look up.
Yuan Huan suppressed his anger and sneered coldly, "I really underestimated Shen Pei."
He dared to frame him outside the Zhongzheng Gate, but he was really deceived by her beautiful and weak face.
The leader of the person kneeling on the ground was also the subordinate who was responsible for handling Guo Jin's affairs before. "Don't calm down. If the prince hates Shen Pei, we must do our best to get rid of her for you."
"Your Majesty, never." The other person was an aide in the mansion and immediately spoke out and said, "If something happened to Shen Pei, I am afraid that the first person everyone doubts is the prince. Please put the overall situation first."
"You're right." Yuan Huan said lightly. Although the incident during this period made him angry and upset, he still did not lose his mind.
The aide also knew that His Highness had never been very ambitious, otherwise he would not have wanted to seek power and profit, rather than being a idle and rich prince.
The former cares more about reputation. Shen Pei is just a fifth-rank official. The status of King Heng, who is born with a royal relative, is nothing. If it is because of a mere little person, the reputation of Your Highness and the impression of the officials in the court will be more than worth the loss.
The staff advised King Heng to endure his anger for a while, ignore Shen Pei for the time being, and first restore his reputation and rebuild his power.
It wasn't true that Yuan Huan hated Shen Pei too much. After all, he didn't know that the assassination was a drama directed and acted by Shen Pei himself, and more of it was caused by Shen Pei outside the Zhongzheng Gate.
Moreover, he clearly took the initiative at the beginning, he was the prince, and Shen Pei was just a new member of the Hanlin area. He was very likely to discover Shen Pei's secret, but he did not expect that he was ruined by Shen Pei, and now he has to stay away from her.
But so what? The future is long. He is waiting to see Shen Pei look so servile to him one day.
As if he had imagined that scene, Yuan Huan narrowed his eyes slightly.
He sneered coldly, "Look at Shen Pei and report to me every day."
"Yes." The subordinates were shocked.
...
"Mr. Shen really made me admire him." Several officials stroked their beards and exclaimed.
Shen Pei smiled and said, "You are too proud. It's still up to everyone to do this. Shen Pei is just helping him."
He is not greedy for merit or aggressive, and is humble enough. Even the ministers above Shen Pei feel relieved after hearing this.
This credit is clearly Shen Pei's. If they snatched it, it would be ugly. Moreover, Shen Pei is really a rare talent. Not only is he supervising the Si Fengsheng, but he also assisted the Dali Temple Minister in handling the case and checked the accounts with the Ministry of Revenue.
The contributions made in just two or three months are not amazing.
Moreover, I heard that the officials who worked with Shen Pei didn't praise her. I thought that Shen Pei, who had the courage to find out, would be a thorn in King Heng, but she didn't want to get along with her, was very good at dealing with things, and knew how to promote merit, even those with her could get some credit.
In this way, Shen Pei also resolved the hostility of most people as he wished.
Shen Pei is good at being a human being, and is also good at doing things. The Dali Temple Minister and the head of the Ministry of Revenue have all contacted the Supervision Department to grab people, but the Supervision Department is reluctant to let Shen Pei go.
Although the problems under King Heng’s disciples in Jiangnan’s salt and iron tax caused shock in the court and caused such a big deal, Shen Pei also made his mark.
The people in the Supervision Department also thought in their hearts that they were more afraid of becoming an optional existence in the court than offending the powerful.
There was nothing wrong with this incident that shocked the inspection department again.
More importantly, Shen Pei is really useful. Even if it is a serious and difficult problem, it can be solved in her hands. Moreover, Shen Pei is only a fifth-rank military official now. She is not as high as the level of fighting for power and profit, nor is it as low as inconvenient to use it. It would be a pity not to maximize the use of it while she has not yet been promoted.
As for whether Shen Pei will be promoted, no one will doubt that Cheng Zhongfu alone values Shen Pei very much.
Hearing that he invited Shen Pei to his mansion for dinner twice, his wife saw that Shen Pei was both talented and had a good future, and wanted to give him a gift to Chen Zhan, but was rejected by Chen Zhan.
Not only was Cheng Shoufu not angry, he also felt that Shen Pei was as handsome as a jade. He turned around and said that his wife did something wrong. Then, within two days, he personally betrothed another marriage for his youngest daughter. In comparison, it was really worse than Chen Zhan, and he married far away.
It can be said that Mr. Cheng is a strange creature. Many people in the court think he is too straightforward, just like a stinky stone in a pit. He has been the chief minister for two or three years, and he has never even planned his own son-in-law, but he is very fond of Shen Pei.
But she didn't know that half of this was planned by Shen Pei. In order to eliminate the hidden danger of King Heng, she naturally thought about it carefully. She even thought about whom to hand over the note to. She never thought about handing over it herself. Not to mention the risk, and the emperor might not take a look at it by a new official. The candidate she was looking for to hand over it on behalf of the emperor was to win the attention of the emperor, and at the same time, she was not afraid of hostility to the clan royal family like King Heng and could thoroughly investigate it, Shoufu Cheng.
