Qin Yu looked at everything in front of him speechlessly. He wondered if Zhang Tang would regret recommending him if he saw this person doing such a thing.
Just as I was thinking this, I heard the crowd around me start to stir again.
"This shop has finally been raided."
"Yes, I heard that this place not only lends money at high interest rates and cheats people, but it's also a place where bandits sell stolen goods. The boss is really despicable."
"This is what they call 'the wicked need another wicked to teach them a lesson!' That's exactly how they should be dealt with!"
The crowd continued watching the show while talking.
Upon hearing this, Qin Yu frowned.
He nodded thoughtfully; it seemed things weren't as simple as he'd thought.
Just as Qin Yu was about to continue asking questions, Yin Dang and Wu Chi squeezed through the crowd with difficulty, and Qin Yu quickly swallowed back the words he was about to say.
They turned and squeezed through the crowd, and the four of them continued on their way back to the palace.
Having successfully completed their mission, Yin Dang and his companion hastily bid farewell to Qin Yu, intending to report to Zhang Shichang.
Watching the two figures leave, Qin Yu finally spoke.
"Anfu, go back to the archives and bring me the information on that fat Zhu from the street today."
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Anfu nodded and quickly turned to walk towards the archives.
Qin Yu returned to the study alone.
Inside the study, Qin Yu had just tidied up a bit.
Anfu then walked in carrying a scroll of documents.
He walked to the table, placed the documents in front of Qin Yu with both hands, and said.
"Your Majesty, this is the information about Zhu Fei that this old servant found in the archives. Please take a look."
"good."
Qin Yu nodded and reached out to open the document.
After carefully reviewing Zhu Fei's resume, Qin Yu's expression changed slightly.
"No wonder the Duke recommended him to me; there is indeed a reason for it."
As he spoke, Qin Yu pushed the documents in front of An Fu.
Anfu looked down and his eyes were full of surprise!
It turns out that although Zhu Fei was not good-looking, he was the head instructor of the Great Xia Martial Arts Academy.
This position is similar to that of the president of the National Defense University in later generations.
Moreover, although Zhu Fei is not good-looking, he is a good teacher and is deeply loved by his students.
Today, he has countless students and mentors.
Students who graduated from the martial arts academy are now scattered throughout the country, holding various positions in the military.
However, he later incurred the wrath of the Jia family by reprimanding the incompetent Jia Zhengjin and expelling him from the martial arts hall. His father, in alliance with Sima Lie, then dismissed Zhu Fei from his official post.
He was then transferred to the patrol battalion and became a minor military officer.
Qin Yu couldn't help but sigh, "This is truly a dragon swimming in shallow water."
However, the ancients placed great importance on the relationship between teachers and students, and respected teachers and their teachings.
Even though Zhu Fei is only a minor military officer in the patrol battalion, he is bound to be able to recruit a group of virtuous ministers and capable generals.
"Your Majesty, it seems that Zhu Fei is a man who can be put to great use."
"However, today on the street, this old servant and His Majesty clearly saw with their own eyes that General Zhu oppressed the people, was proficient in eating, drinking, gambling and whoring, embezzled military funds, and extorted money from the people. Could it be that he has fallen into depravity and been assimilated by those scumbags in the patrol camp?"
At this point, Anfu suddenly frowned again, pointed to the resume and said, "It's really strange, but I see in the resume that this person has been rated as an advanced individual in the Ministry of War every year, and all his superiors have given him extremely high praise."
Anfu was stunned for a moment.
People are all two-sided, but it is rare to see someone like Zhu Fei who embodies both sides so thoroughly.
In fact, you could say he had never seen it before.
In this situation, he dared not say anything reckless.
Qin Yu was puzzled, and his brows furrowed involuntarily.
The rumors surrounding Zhu Fei's behavior are simply incomparable to the image of a diligent and hardworking individual who could be considered a model worker.
However, since it was Zhang Tang who recommended it, and the Ministry of War's records praise it so highly.
He couldn't definitively say which one he should believe.
Thinking of this, Qin Yu gave a wry smile and muttered to himself.
"Zhu Fei, Zhu Fei, are you a human or a ghost?"
A profound silence fell over the study.
A moment later, Qin Yu's voice rang out again.
"Since we don't know whether it's a human or a ghost, we'll just have to find out for ourselves."
As Qin Yu spoke, she turned to look at An Fu standing to the side.
"Anfu, go to the police station and bring him to me!"
"What? Your Majesty..."
Anfu paused for a moment, then looked up at Qin Yu.
But Qin Yu said, "Today I want to see if he is a human or a ghost. If he is a human, I will give him an important position. If he is a ghost... then don't blame me for being ruthless."
But Anfu frowned and looked at Qin Yu, speaking softly.
"Your Majesty, this is probably not a good time."
"This old servant has checked all the palace gates these past two days. Ever since Li Geng's incident, Sima Lie has tightened the defenses at the palace gates even more."
Anfu said in a low voice.
"This old servant sees that almost everyone in this palace is Zhang Shichang's man. They are all waiting to see what the Emperor will do about Li Geng's matter."
Qin Yu's face darkened, and he gave a cold laugh as he pondered.
"In that case, I will not summon him; I will go to see him myself."
"Your Majesty..."
Anfu looked bewildered, and Qin Yu immediately waved his hand.
"Now set up the Imperial Observatory and say that I'm going to check if my aphrodisiac is ready and to urge them on."
Upon hearing this, Anfu was completely bewildered, but he still made arrangements for the imperial carriage.
They walked towards the Imperial Observatory.
The Imperial Observatory was almost the quietest place in the entire palace.
When Qin Yu's imperial carriage arrived, Liu Caiqing was practicing swordsmanship with her female disciples in the courtyard.
The swordplay was gentle and graceful, and the group's elegant postures momentarily captivated Qin Yu. Just then, Liu Caiqing noticed Qin Yu out of the corner of her eye.
She quickly stopped, walked briskly to Qin Yu, and knelt on the ground.
The crowd behind him hurriedly knelt down and said in unison.
"Long live the Emperor!"
"Get up."
Qin Yu jumped off the carriage, a slight smile playing on his lips, and said.
"I've come to see how the preparation of the Hehuan Powder is going."
"yes."
Upon hearing Qin Yu's words, Liu Caiqing immediately realized what he meant.
She quickly got up and led Qin Yu and An Fu into the inner hall.
They went into the inner room and then followed the corridor to the study on the side.
"Your Majesty, aren't we going to the police station to see Zhu Fei?"
At this moment, Anfu, who was standing to the side, glanced at Qin Yu with some puzzlement.
He was supposed to be going to the patrol camp, but instead he ended up in the Imperial Observatory. He really couldn't figure out what Qin Yu was up to.
At this moment, the group had arrived in front of the study.
Liu Caiqing and Qin Yu exchanged a glance, and after making sure no one was around, they spoke.
"Your Majesty, is there something important that you have to discuss so late at night?"
"Open the secret passage. I want to see someone now."
