"We are just waiting for adults." Chen Hong said with a smile, and stretched out his hand to pull Yu Maoheng aside.
Yu Maoheng was also aware of Chen Hong's thoughts.
We are all thousand-year-old foxes, and we can smell the scent as soon as someone reveals the slightest hint.
Yu Maoheng certainly knew what Chen Hong wanted to do, but he avoided it.
It’s not because he doesn’t want to make friends with Chen Hong, nor is it because he looks down on Chen Hong.
The struggle in the court is so fierce now, and the ministers are fighting each other. At this time, the benefits of making friends with a powerful eunuch in the palace are naturally self-evident.
But Yu Maoheng did not intend to do so. He now had a clear understanding of his own position. He was just a firecracker thrown by His Majesty, and it was not time for it to explode yet.
At this moment, Chen Hong came to find him. Yu Maoheng didn't know what Chen Hong was going to do, but he still followed him to the corner, looked at Chen Hong quietly, waiting for him to speak first.
"We came here because we have something to tell Lord Yu." Chen Hong said with a smile.
"I wonder if this is what Your Majesty meant, or what Eunuch Chen meant?" Yu Maoheng asked directly.
Yu Maoheng didn't have to ask this, nor was he low in emotional intelligence, but he had no choice but to ask.
If it is Chen Hong's business, then I can refuse, but if it is His Majesty's intention, then I have no way to refuse.
Chen Hong smiled, squinted his eyes and said, "Our family is not interesting."
After hearing this, Yu Maoheng understood and said with a smile, "Please teach me, sir."
"I'm afraid things may be a little uneasy these days. Lord Yu, go back and rest for a few days. If you feel any discomfort, ask the imperial physician to treat you." After Chen Hong said this with a smile, he bowed to Yu Maoheng.
The meaning is very clear. You should go back and stay at home for a few days. No matter what happens in the court, don't get involved.
Yu Maoheng understood instantly and said with a smile, "In that case, thank you very much, eunuch."
The two people met for a very short time and didn't say much. Basically, they said hello and then parted ways.
Chen Hong returned to the Palace of Heavenly Purity, while Yu Maoheng left the Forbidden City and returned to the Censorate.
Naturally, the news of the grand court meeting could not be concealed. Not long after the court was adjourned, the news had spread throughout the entire officialdom.
For many middle and lower-level officials, they basically understood a few meanings.
One piece of news was that Zhao Nanxing, the Minister of Works, was going to investigate the Ministry of Works. As a result, the Ministry of Works was the first to be thrown into panic.
Another piece of news is that Grand Secretary Han Yu is going to take over the Dongchang case.
Some people are optimistic about this, believing that Zhao Nanxing and Han Yu are their own people and things will get better; some people are very pessimistic and think that something big is about to happen this time.
There are all kinds of ideas in the officialdom, but the specific situation depends on how things develop, so no one has expressed any opinions.
At this moment, the Palace of Heavenly Purity.
Zhu Youxiao looked at Xu Guangqi standing in front of him and said with a smile, "Looking at your expression, my dear, you seem quite high and cheerful. It seems that you have been doing well these days."
Xu Guangqi took a step forward and said with gratitude, "This is all thanks to your Majesty."
Glancing at Xu Guangqi, Zhu Youxiao waved his hand. "There's no need to say such things. I called you here today mainly to ask about the situation over there. How is the military training going?"
In fact, Zhu Youxiao had always been paying attention to how the troops were training. Even if he didn't ask Xu Guangqi, he knew it very well in his heart.
But there are some things that you have to pretend not to know even if you know them. You have to give your subordinates the opportunity to perform, and you can't force them to pretend.
When Xu Guangqi heard Zhu Youxiao ask this, his face suddenly lit up.
Xu Guangqi lived a very good life during this period. With the presence of the veteran general Qi Jin during military training, he didn't have to worry about anything.
Compared with Qi Jin, Xu Guangqi felt inferior, but at the same time he was very happy.
Why do I need to train my troops?
It's not because I like training troops, but because the country is in turmoil and the country needs elite soldiers to stabilize and defend the country.
Under such circumstances, even if his ability to train soldiers was not that outstanding, he was willing to do his best. This was Xu Guangqi's idea.
It’s just that the idea is good, but the reality is cruel.
In the face of cruel reality, my ideas were vulnerable, which was why I was so discouraged that I submitted a letter of resignation.
But now Xu Guangqi saw hope. Although the recruitment had just been completed, he had already seen the potential of this army.
With 3,000 Zhejiang soldiers as the backbone, a force of more than 10,000 strong men was formed from the 100,000 Beijing troops.
It can be said that this is a very elite force, with the best food and military supplies, and the firearms are of new type developed by the Baigong Academy.
Xu Guangqi also went to the Academy of Craftsmen to take a look, after all, he was also an expert in firearms.
After reading it, Xu Guangqi was overjoyed.
Bi Maokang is a talented person. He not only has his own ideas, but also does things in an orderly manner.
The two of them benefited greatly from their exchanges. Bi Maokang even admired Xu Guangqi so much that he always regarded him as his teacher.
Old Xu was able to do things more smoothly, and since His Majesty had given him so much silver, there was no constraint at all.
Xu Guangqi naturally felt very comfortable working in such an environment.
Zhu Youxiao looked at Xu Guangqi and listened to him introduce the whole process to him in detail. Some parts even seemed a little long-winded, but Zhu Youxiao did not show any impatience. He listened with a smile from beginning to end.
