Ouchi Cat Controlling, starting with the Ten Tiger Forms!
Chapter 70 Seeing flowers in the smoke
"Okay, let's get down to business."
Zhao Feng did not continue to struggle with this issue. He patted Wei Chengji's hand and motioned for him to lead the way.
Although Zhao Feng was nominally the head of the House of Internal Affairs, due to his special status, everything that happened in the palace was basically under his control.
When something happened in the palace, the emperor also learned about the situation through Zhao Feng.
While Zhao Feng holds power, he also bears corresponding responsibilities.
Just like the fire in Yanqu Palace yesterday, the emperor was not very interested in the cause and process. He only wanted to see a satisfactory result.
This is also the main reason why Zhao Feng came to Yanqu Hall today.
As for Zhao Feng's excuse for himself in front of His Majesty, Wei Chengji believed it.
From the reactions of the several waves of people who came to check the situation last night, he had already expected it.
Therefore, the mood at that time became even worse.
In that situation, the only person who could help him was Zhao Feng, the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
But considering the past grudge between him and Zhao Feng, he would rather the other party did not help him and let him be punished by His Majesty.
With Wei Chengji's status, the worst possible outcome would be to give up his position as the sealing father-in-law of Yanqu Palace, never get involved in the struggle again, and find a casual job to support his old age.
Wei Chengji has worked hard for so many years without any merit. Considering his many years of serving the royal family, he will not lose his life because of it.
But not everyone has the courage to retreat from the rapids and the calm mind to let go of the power like Mr. Shang.
Wei Chengji worked hard all his life and finally managed to control some power. Naturally, he was unwilling to give it up until the last moment.
Thinking of this, Wei Chengji led Zhao Feng and others to the fire scene last night without knowing it.
Now there is nothing but dark ruins.
But after last night's cleaning, most of the building debris inside has been sorted out.
Zhao Feng walked into the ruins calmly regardless of the mess, and asked Wei Chengji beside him: "I wonder if Eunuch Wei has found out the cause of the fire?"
Wei Chengji glanced at the people behind Zhao Feng and did not speak immediately.
Zhao Feng understood and waved his hand.
The eunuchs in colorful clothes who were following him immediately dispersed, alerting the surroundings.
Only Zhao Feng's adopted son Zhao Bugao was still waiting.
"Aji, you know Bu Gao, there is no need to be jealous of him."
Zhao Feng had already given enough face, and Wei Chengji stopped being pretentious and repeated the speculation they had come up with in the morning.
But among them, Wei Chengji's own considerations made some details omitted.
After hearing this, Zhao Feng couldn't help but sigh: "Oh, this fire almost killed Wang Cairen. Fortunately, she was not in danger, otherwise she would have been in trouble."
Wei Chengji nodded and did not agree, but he also showed a noncommittal attitude.
"General Zhongwu is very fond of his daughter. It is known to everyone in the court. If something happens to her in the palace, it will not only be you and me, but also His Majesty will not be able to explain it."
Zhao Feng said this and looked at Wei Chengji faintly.
Wei Chengji breathed heavily, and this time he answered: "Mr. Zhao, that's right."
"We work as servants in the palace. Although we may appear to be prosperous, we are nothing more than rootless duckweeds. The power in our hands all comes from the grace of the Holy One."
"Aji, you have to understand that we are all just vassals of the imperial power."
"The Holy One is better off, so we can be better off too."
"Do you understand?"
After Zhao Feng asked this question, he looked at Wei Chengji quietly.
Wei Chengji was speechless for a long time. After a long time, his shoulders slumped and he replied in a muffled voice: "I have learned a lesson."
"Okay, as long as you understand."
Zhao Feng smiled and nodded, showing a satisfied look.
"By the way, I don't know who saved Wang Cairen. Where is he now? I want to see him."
Hearing this, Wei Chengji's heart skipped a beat.
He had previously deliberately reduced Deng Weixian's presence, and it was just a brushstroke.
But unexpectedly, it still attracted Zhao Feng's attention.
"Director Zhao, he is a young eunuch who has just entered the palace. He was assigned to me from the Imperial Palace a few days ago. His name is Xiao Dengzi."
"Because Xiao Dengzi conspired with Huang Shan in this fire, I have asked someone to keep him in the woodshed, waiting for Manager Zhao's disposal."
"Oh, so that's it." Zhao Feng suddenly understood, nodded and continued: "Then let's go see this little Dengzi who saved Wang Cairen."
"Please ask Aji to lead the way for us."
Although Wei Chengji was reluctant, he had no choice.
But at this moment, someone was rushing towards the eunuch in colorful clothes who was on guard nearby, trying to come over here.
"Uncle Yin Fang, Gong Yin Fang!"
Several people were attracted by the sound, turned around to look, and found that it was Wang Suyue and Xia Wanfeng.
Wang Suyue ignored the obstruction and wanted to rush forward, but the eunuchs in colorful clothes blocked her and refused to let her go.
Wei Chengji couldn't help but frown slightly when he saw Wang Suyue appearing here.
There was a faint smile on Zhao Feng's face, and then he ordered the eunuchs in colorful clothes: "Invite two talented people to come over and talk."
After receiving the order, the eunuchs in colorful clothes were willing to let them go, and two people followed Wang Suyue and Xia Wanfeng.
"Wang Suyue."
"Xia Wanfeng."
"I've met Mr. Zhao."
In front of Zhao Feng, the two of them bowed respectfully.
"You two are such talented people. I wonder if you are so urgent. Do you have something important?"
Zhao Feng didn't care at all about their previous recklessness, but asked kindly, without any intention of putting on airs.
But Wang Suyue and Xia Wanfeng would not underestimate the kind old man in front of them.
Before they entered the palace, they had already heard of Zhao Feng's name.
His authority in the palace even exceeded that of many concubines, and even Empress Wu was extremely afraid of him.
However, Zhao Feng was extremely loyal to Emperor Yongyuan, so he remained unmoved for many years despite wind and rain.
On the contrary, this person's influence in the harem is getting stronger and stronger, and even many ministers in the court have to face up to this eunuch.
Wang Suyue exhaled nervously, and after preparing herself mentally, she said, "The little girl has taken the liberty to come here. She just wants to ask Mr. Yinfang why he put Xiao Dengzi, who saved my life, to death?"
"Isn't it a meritorious service that he saved me from the sea of fire?"
"Or is it that he had a problem because of it?"
Wei Chengji narrowed his eyes slightly and felt cold in his heart when he looked at Wang Suyue who was looking directly at him without making any move.
But when Wang Suyue said these words, she was already giving up.
Yesterday, she had doubts about Deng Weixian's motives, but just now, she overheard the verified causes and consequences.
Knowing that Deng Weixian was coerced by Huang Shan, he came to monitor himself.
And no matter what, my life was indeed saved from the sea of fire by the other party.
Knowing that the sealer's father-in-law was going to get rid of Deng Weixian soon, Wang Suyue didn't care about anything else and took advantage of Zhao Feng's presence to rush over, intending to save his savior's life.
Wang Suyue's character has always been like this, without any twists and turns, she just wants to have a clear conscience.
So even though my good sister kept trying to persuade me, she still showed up here and asked these questions.
Xia Wanfeng, who was staying by the side, watched her friend stubbornly look at Eunuch Yinfang, and she could only sigh and stay by her side silently.
"oh?"
"Has Eunuch Wei made a decision on how to deal with little Dengzi?"
Zhao Feng asked with a half-smile, waiting for Wei Chengji's answer.
