Chen Hong didn't say anything else and walked out with the test book in his hands.
Soon, Chen Hong arrived at the Tongzhengsi and went straight in to meet Zhao Bingzhong.
"Sir Zhao, His Majesty asked me to deliver this memorial to you." As he said that, Chen Hong handed the memorial to Zhao Bingzhong.
Reaching out to pick up the question book and taking a look at it, Zhao Bingzhong sighed helplessly.
It turned out just as His Majesty had said, so Zhao Bingzhong said, "Thank you, Eunuch Chen. Please report this to His Majesty, and I will see to it that this matter is properly handled."
"Don't worry, Lord Zhao. I will definitely report this to His Majesty." Chen Hong agreed with a smile, then bowed and said, "If there is nothing else, I will take my leave."
"Take care, Eunuch Chen." Zhao Bingzhong made a gesture of invitation and said
After leaving the Tongzhengsi Yamen, Chen Hong walked back and said to a young eunuch beside him: "Go, get the job done, don't make any mistakes."
"Don't worry, godfather, there must be nothing wrong." The young eunuch agreed, then left the team and walked away.
The young eunuch entered a room, changed his clothes, and quietly left the palace through the side door.
There was already a carriage waiting for him outside the palace gate.
After getting on the carriage, the curtain was quickly lowered and the eunuch said, "Let's go."
The driver didn't ask where they were going. He just waved the whip gently and the carriage drove away from the palace gate along the cobblestone road.
After traveling through several streets in the capital, the carriage finally stopped at the gate of a courtyard.
The driver said softly to the people in the car: "Mr. Chen is here."
As he spoke, he lifted the curtain of the carriage, and the young eunuch came out of the carriage. He looked around and saw that no one was following him, so he pushed the door open and walked in.
There was already someone waiting in the yard. When he saw the young eunuch come in, he turned around and went in to report.
Not long after, a fat middle-aged man came out.
This was a man in his forties with a big belly. When he saw the young eunuch, his face was full of smiles.
"Mr. Chen." He said respectfully
The young eunuch nodded and said, "Let's go in and talk."
After saying this, the young eunuch walked inside.
The fat man didn't dare to delay and followed him in directly, while winking at the people around him.
Several people quickly found a place to stand, and some even went to the street to stand guard.
After entering the house, the fat man smiled and said, "Mr. Chen, do you have something to tell me?"
"Indeed, there are some things for you to do." The young eunuch nodded and said directly, "The Luoyang County Magistrate submitted a memorial and also a secret petition, impeaching the Henan Prefecture Governor and Prince Fu."
Hearing the young eunuch's words, the fat middle-aged man immediately became serious.
Obviously, this matter involves the struggle in the court, which proves that this is a big deal. He dare not be negligent in the slightest, because once he is negligent in the slightest, it will be a matter of life and death.
The young eunuch glanced at him and continued, "Have your people spread the word that Chen Qiyu, the magistrate of Luoyang, is forcing Your Majesty. If Your Majesty does not severely punish Prince Fu, then the secret petition system will be meaningless. If Your Majesty severely punishes Prince Fu, then you will be disregarding the ties of the royal family."
Hearing the young eunuch's words, the fat man was almost frightened and cried. He showed a very ugly smile on his face and said with a sad face: "Mr. Chen, how could we dare to say such a thing?"
As he spoke, he quickly took out a stack of banknotes from his hand and gently handed it to the young eunuch.
"Eunuch Chen, please give me some advice." As he said this, he stuffed the bill into the young eunuch's hand.
After quietly collecting the bills, the young eunuch said, "Just do what I tell you to do. Why are there so many things to do? If you do this job well, you won't suffer any loss."
"But I'm not sure about it." The fat man continued with a sad face.
After hearing this, the young eunuch laughed and said directly: "It turns out that the famous Third Master Chang in the capital also has something to fear."
"Sir, you're joking. This is a matter of confiscating property and exterminating the entire family." The fat man, Master Chang San, said hurriedly.
The young eunuch stood up, walked to Mr. Chang San, patted his chest gently, and said with a smile: "Just do it if I ask you to. Don't worry, you won't lose your life. If you don't do it, then your life may really be gone."
Mr. Chang San was in tears.
As a prominent figure in the capital, Mr. Chang San had no idea how these people found him and used both soft and hard tactics on him.
These people have great power. Not only can they mobilize the Jinyiwei, but they can also do many things.
He had also asked people to investigate secretly before, and knowing that these people had roots in the palace, he was even more afraid to offend them.
But the matter got bigger and bigger, and originally they just wanted me to release some information.
Although it's just a rumor now, it's too big. It involves His Majesty. If this news gets out and someone investigates, I might even lose my life.
The young eunuch looked at Master Chang San and said with a smile, "I know you have investigated us. I think with your ability, Master Chang San, you should have found out something and know some of our background."
"Since you're still respectful, let me remind you that the water here is much deeper than you think. Don't think you can't drown just by the river. A single wave will wipe out your body."
"So be obedient and do your job well, otherwise..."
Having said that, the young eunuch stopped talking. He believed that Master Chang San understood what he meant.
Master Chang Sanye quickly said, "Don't worry, sir, I know what to do."
"It's good that you know it, but don't even think about running away. You can't. If you really want to run away, I can tell you that there's no place for you in this world."
After the young eunuch said this, he put Mr. Chang Sanye's banknotes into his sleeves and turned to walk out.
