In the afternoon, Fan Ning returned to Zhu Yuanfeng's mansion. As soon as he entered the mansion, he met his sister-in-law Zhu Jie. Zhu Jie has been widowed for many years. She has been taking care of her father and is the actual housekeeper of Zhu Yuanfeng's mansion. In addition, the Xinbao founded by Zhu Yuanfeng is also in her hands. Novels.

"Aning, I've been waiting for you!" Zhu Jie greeted him and said with a smile.

"My sister-in-law is asking me for something?"

My sister-in-law rarely looks for her. Fan Ning thought about it and smiled and said, "Can it be that Ape and the others are about to arrive in the capital?"

"They have already set out from Yingtian Mansion, but I'm not looking for you for this matter. Do you have time now?"

Fanning nodded, Zhu Jie smiled and said, "Then you go with me, someone wants to see you."

"Who wants to see me?"

Zhu Jie said a name to him with his ear. Fan Ning was stunned. How could it be her?

"The princess has been here in the afternoon?"

"The princess sent someone, but she was very cautious and had nothing written. Just follow me."

Fanning got on the carriage, and he could understand Gao Taotao's prudence. After all, it is difficult for a lonely man and a widow to meet alone, so he needed a third party to accompany him.

But what Fan Ning is a little puzzled is that Zhu Jie seems to have a good relationship with Gao Taotao. Why is that?

Zhu Jie understood Fan Ning's doubts and explained with a smile: "Most of the support my father gave to the Prince of Julu was done by me. I directly looked for the princess. After so many years of friendship, we are already very familiar with each other, and she trusts me enough."

So that's it, Fanning nodded and asked, "My sister-in-law is very busy recently!"

"I have always been busy. The main reason is that the news matters make me unable to separate myself. If I am not here, those who are in charge of publishing articles will be troublesome if they make trouble."

"My aunt actually doesn't have to worry too much. Just follow the "Chaobao". If the "Chaobao" is not published, then the "Xinbao" must be cautious. The "Chaobao" has a good grasp of the sensitivity of this aspect."

"So are there anything to pay attention to now?"

Fan Ning thought for a while and said, "You can say a few things about Zhang Yaozuo, but don't publish anything about Empress Wen Cheng. Empress Wen Cheng is the emperor's rebellion, so don't touch it."

"King Liang is very popular recently. Is there any insider information?" Zhu Jie asked with a smile.

Fan Ning smiled slightly, "I have a lot of inside information, but I gave it to you, but it hurts the Xinbao. My sister-in-law just remember a little. King Liang moved into the East Palace."

"Who knows what happened when King Liang lives in the Eastern Palace? The key is to forget it, I won't look for you, so as not to get angry."

The carriage slowly stopped in front of a restaurant. Fan Ning looked at it and it turned out to be Zhu Lou.

"Come with me!"

Zhu Jie got out of the carriage and took Fan Ning into the restaurant through the side door. She walked directly to the third floor from a hidden staircase. From the staircase, there was a room for miscellaneous items. Zhu Jie pushed open the door and there were no guests in the corridor. She pushed open the door opposite and walked in.

Opposite was a suite, with two female guards standing outside. Zhu Jie pointed to the inner room, "I'll wait for you here, so I won't go in."

Fanning lifted the curtain and walked into the inner room.

There was a tea table and tea set in the inner room. A solemn and elegant beauty in the palace dress was drinking tea calmly. It was Zhao Zhongzhen's mother Gao Taotao.

Fan Ning hurriedly stepped forward and bowed, "Fan Ning sees the princess!"

"St. Fan Zhan, we haven't seen each other for almost two years."

Gao Taotao smiled and said, "Please sit down!"

"Thank you the princess to give you a throne!"

Fanning sat down opposite her, and Gao Taotao said again: "I should have invited you to dinner, but I don't want to drink, so I have to invite you to have tea."

She rolled up her sleeves, exposed her white white wrists, and poured a bowl of sen tea for Fanning herself, "This is the tea I cooked myself, you can taste it."

"Thank you for your kindness!"

"It should be my thank you for taking care of Zier. It is your contribution to the fact that Zier can do what she is today. Of course, the Zhu family has made great contributions. If they hadn't donated generously, Zier would not have received the best education, and I know it."

Fanning shook his head and smiled and said, "I think the greatest credit should be the princess. You gave birth to such a transcendent son. If it were Zhao Wenyun, ten Fannings would be useless."

Fanning's flattery made Gao Taotao feel excited. She looked at Fanning deeply, "Mr. Zhan is very good at speaking!"

Fan Ning smiled faintly, "I'm just telling the truth. It's better to say that there is a wise ruler than having a good minister. Yang Kai is extremely smart, but he met Zhang Yaozuo. That's his misfortune. Although Fan Ning was stupid, he met Zhao Zhongzhen. It's my great blessing. I know very well in my heart that the princess doesn't have to be too proud of me."

"I can't help but say I won't reward you."

Gao Taotao took out three jade pendants from his bag and put them on the table and pushed them to Fanning, "These are my three promises. In the future, I can agree to your three requests. If the priest ascends to the throne, I will be the queen mother and should be able to make a promise of a thousand gold."

This is Gao Taotao's purpose of looking for Fanning. He wants to buy his heart well. She has nothing now, but it does not mean she has nothing in the future. So she uses her future promises to comfort Fanning now.

"Thank you for your love, Fan Ning remembers it in his heart."

Fan Ning carefully put three jade pendants into her arms. Gao Taotao was afraid that he would not accept them. Seeing that Fan Ning was not pretentious, she directly accepted them, and she breathed a sigh of relief.

Gao Taotao looked at Fan Ning carefully again. Seeing that Fan Ning was tall, heroic and handsome, she liked her very much. She couldn't help but smile, "I often ask Zhu Jie, is there any secret to Brother Fan being in a high vocational position at such a young age?"

A cold sweat broke out behind Fan Ning. Gao Taotao actually called him Little Brother Fan. This was not a good sign. He hurriedly said, "Actually, Fan Ning has another thing to ask the princess."

Gao Taotao's face felt a little hot, and she also realized that she had just been a little abrupt. She smiled and asked solemnly: "St. Fan Zhan, please tell me."

"It's about the prince. His Highness King Liang has just entered the Eastern Palace and is still unstable. Zhang Yaozuo will never be willing to do so. I am worried that he will use Prince Julu again to cause adverse effects on His Highness King Liang."

"Don't worry!"

Gao Taotao said decisively: "If he wants to do anything stupid, he can only bear it himself. I will never let his stupid things affect the qianer!"

"If this is the case, I will feel relieved!"

Gao Taotao stood up and said, "I'll leave first. If you have any questions in the future, you can go through Zhu Jie and Fan Zhan, take care of yourself!"

Fan Ning bowed and said, "Princess, take care of yourself!"

Gao Taotao passed by Fanning, causing a gust of fragrance, refreshing. Soon, everyone outside left, Fanning sat there, he felt like he was dreaming

At night, Zhao Zhongzhen handed over the two lists to the emperor's grandfather Zhao Zhen. Zhao Zhen looked at the list and smiled: "Have you settled so quickly?"

"Of the five people who reported to the emperor's grandfather and the emperor's grandson, only Cao Gao and the emperor's grandson were appointed by the emperor's grandson, and the other three were the suggestions of Master Han and Fan Zhanshi."

"I'm afraid only Han Jiang is your master's suggestion!"

“That’s right!”

Zhao Zhen nodded and said, "These three are all good. Han Jiang has a deep family background. She is only fifty years old this year. She is the best in qualifications, ability and character. She is the talent of the prime minister. I originally wanted to promote him to be a political affairs officer next year, so I will leave it to you!"

Zhao Zhongzhen didn't dare to speak, and Zhao Zhen said again: "Although Feng Jing is the top scorer, his ability and courage are not as good as Fan Ning. But his father-in-law is very powerful. This place can be regarded as winning over rich husbands! And Yu Xiaonian, the second governor of Kunzhou, is very familiar with Japan. Fan Ning has a high evaluation of him, but he is not the best candidate. It should be considered Fan Ning's selfishness!"

Zhao Zhongzhen felt a little uneasy and whispered: "Since it's not the best candidate, then let's change someone else."

Zhao Zhen smiled slightly and said earnestly to his grandson: "You are the superior. You should look at things from the perspective of the superior. It doesn't matter whether these people are excellent or not. What matters is who recommends them? It is a good thing for ministers to have selfishness. Only with selfishness can they control it. I am afraid that they have no selfishness.

Since it is Fanning's recommendation, you have to give him this face. As for whether to use it in the future, that is your business. The emperor's grandfather has nothing else to teach you. The only thing he wants to teach you is balance. The core of the imperial art is balance. You have to remember this. Fanning balances Han Jiang, which is a little weaker, but it's enough to add Yu Xiaonian. Do you understand if you add Feng Jing as a peacemaker?"

"Grandson remembers it!"

Zhao Zhen looked at the five people recommended by Fan Ning again. Without hesitation, he picked up the pen and issued a word "accurate" on the two recommendation forms.

In just one day, ten officials decided to set up the two high and low teams of the East Palace. When many people just got the news and were about to start looking for a way, the Ministry of Personnel announced that the ten officials had issued an order and no longer made another decision, which really made many people stomp their feet and beat their chests and regret it.

But for Fan Ning, he also had to build the Shenwu Army's military yamen, including the deputy military envoy, judge, provocateur, record officer, joining the army, the six ministers, chief clerk and several employed people.
