Chapter 884 Breaking the Game (1)
"Haha, let me borrow Eunuch Liu's good words. Eunuch Liu is busy, so I won't disturb you."
Zhu Ping'an and Eunuch Liu again After chatting for a while, when other young eunuchs came to see Eunuch Liu, Zhu Pingan said goodbye and left.
"Easy to say, easy to say, Mr. Xiao Zhu, walk slowly." Mr. Liu took a step forward and watched Zhu Ping'an leave with a smile.
After leaving Eunuch Liu, the dark clouds in Zhu Pingan's heart became a little lighter. He slightly squinted his eyes and glanced in the direction of the harem. The light disappeared in a flash, and then he became honest and harmless again. stand up.
After walking out of the inner hall of Wuyi Hall, Zhu Pingan slowly walked down the steps, came to the courtyard of Wuyi Hall, and walked straight towards the door.
"Eunuch Xiao Zhuozi."
Zhu Ping'an came to the door and said hello to the little eunuch standing straight at the door, with a pair of dark eyes full of smiles.
"Master Xiao Zhu." The little eunuch named Xiao Zhuozi at the door saw Zhu Pingan, his eyes lit up, and he returned the favor with Zhu Pingan very familiarly and enthusiastically.
Xiao Zhuozi is not very old, about the same age as Zhu Ping'an. Like Xiao Caozi who works at Xiyuan Gate, he is a young eunuch promoted by Feng Bao from the Huanyi Bureau and belongs to Feng Bao's direct lineage. . Since the last time Zhu Ping'an gave Feng Bao some advice, allowing Feng Bao to gain a firm foothold in the harem, Xiao Zhuozi and Xiao Caozi have also become more prosperous. Following Feng Bao, they have taken up a lot of light and assumed various responsibilities. The errands are countless times better than before, and the fuel and water are much more abundant.
Feng Baoneng's success today is inseparable from the harem's brand-turning system.
Although Feng Bao abides by his agreement with Zhu Pingan, he has not revealed to outsiders that the system of making a fool of himself during the harem fire was the work of Zhu Pingan, not even the direct descendants of Xiao Zhuozi and Xiao Caozi. disclose.
However, although Feng Bao did not say it explicitly, Xiao Zhuozi and Xiao Caozi, as direct descendants of Feng Bao, combined with what happened before and after the brand flop, as well as Feng Bao’s attitude towards Zhu Pingan, Xiao Zhuozi and Xiao Caozi still You can guess it.
In fact, it is also very obvious that during that time, Feng Bao was forced by the mistresses of the harem, and the disaster was imminent. Feng Bao was at the end of his rope. Xiao Zhuozi and Xiao Caozi saw that With anxiety in his eyes and in his heart, Feng Bao met Zhu Ping'an when he went to the Ministry of Justice on errands and chatted with Zhu Ping'an all the way. Xiao Zhuozi and Xiao Caozi also knew about it. It was after this that Feng Bao proposed to the Holy Emperor the system of turning tables to serve in bed. Sure enough, Emperor Jiajing was very interested in this novel, interesting and extremely imperial method, so the system of turning tables became popular in the harem and gradually became popular. It became the custom-made item for the favored concubine of Emperor Jiajing. Feng Bao also won a desperate turnaround. Not only did he avoid the disaster, but he also gained a firm foothold in the harem. He also went a step further, from an insignificant young eunuch to a powerful figure in the harem. and the great eunuch who has the right to speak.
Before meeting Zhu Ping'an, Feng Bao was in panic and was walking on thin ice; after meeting Zhu Ping'an, Feng Bao was able to turn around from his desperate situation with divine help.
So it is obvious that the brand-flipping system was Zhu Pingan's idea for Feng Bao. It was only because the privacy of the harem and the empress was involved that Zhu Pingan, a foreign minister, was not suitable and could not be involved in the brand-flipping system in the slightest. Feng Bao was tight-lipped. However, this can be proved by Feng Bao's attitude and respect for Zhu Pingan.
Don’t forget the man who dug the well.
For Feng Bao to gain a foothold in the harem and take a step forward, it was inseparable from Zhu Ping'an's idea of turning the tables. As Feng Bao's direct descendants, Xiao Zhuozi and Xiao Caozi, with Feng Bao, both prospered and suffered losses. Today, Zhu Ping'an's idea of flipping the brand is also inseparable.
So, Xiao Zhuozi and the others are also sincerely grateful to Zhu Pingan.
The relationship between Feng Bao and Zhu Pingan is getting closer and closer, and their relationship with Zhu Pingan is also getting closer, not just because of Feng Bao.
Zhu Ping'an was young and promising. He was already the number one scholar at the same age as them. He was a fifth-rank official and had no airs about them.
For example, this morning, when Mr. Xiao Zhu came to Wuyi Hall to sit straight, he saw himself sitting at the door of Wuyi Hall. Mr. Xiao Zhu stopped and said a few words to Wuyi before entering. temple.
They are sincerely willing to get close to Mr. Xiao Zhu.
"Haha, it's a good opening. You probably know that I opened a Zhuji fast food in Qihuamen. It just opened yesterday and the business is not bad. According to the tradition of our hometown, I want to give you a A little red envelope for good luck. You were not here yesterday, and there were so many people this morning. Please make up for it now."
Zhu Pingan walked up to Xiao Zhuozi with a smile and took out one from his sleeve. The red envelope was handed to eunuch Xiao Zhuozi.
"Congratulations to Mr. Xiao Zhu. I wish Zhu Ji's business will become more and more prosperous and the red envelope will be unnecessary. If Eunuch Feng knew that I accepted the red envelope from Mr. Xiao Zhu, he would tear my skin off." Xiao Zhuozi smiled and shook his head. He shook his head and refused to accept the red envelope.
"It's different. It's a good thing for starting a business. It's auspicious, and it's not free. If you have the opportunity to go out of the palace to run errands someday, drop by my store to take care of the business. Xiao Zhuozi's father-in-law won't accept it. Are you unwilling to give this good fortune and take care of my store's business, or is it too little?" Zhu Ping'an looked at Xiao Zhuozi with a smile.
"How could it be possible? Master Xiao Zhu, if you say this, how dare Xiao Zhuozi refuse to accept it." Xiao Zhuozi smiled bitterly and scratched the back of his head.
"That's right."
Zhu Ping'an smiled and patted Xiao Zhuozi's shoulder, then put the red envelope into Xiao Zhuozi's hand.
"Hehe, thank you, Mr. Xiao Zhu. From now on when I go out to the palace to do errands, I will definitely go to Mr. Zhu's to try something new."
After receiving the red envelope, Xiao Zhuozi narrowed his eyes and smiled. Thank you Zhu Pingan.
"Haha, I've been waiting for you to say this. Tell me your name after you go, and you can get a 40% discount on all purchases." Zhu Ping'an joked with a smile.
"Thank you Mr. Xiao Zhu. Then I have to go to Zhu Ji. I must go. This is not a joke. Mr. Xiao Zhu, you don’t know that before your Zhu Ji opened, our palace Many people here know about it. Many people still laugh at you, Master Xiao Zhu. They laugh at you for being the first scholar to get out of a book and be tainted by the smell of copper. They are also in the business of pig-to-water. Everyone made bets that Mr. Xiao Zhu, your store would be ruined within two days of opening. Xiao Caozi and I even wanted to fight for your injustice, Mr. Xiao Zhu, but we couldn't defeat them. Yesterday at noon, Xiao Dongzi, who was in the imperial dining room while shopping for ingredients, passed by Master Xiao Zhu’s Zhu Ji and saw the business in your store. It's so popular, the seats are packed, and the queue outside is more than ten meters away. There is no store in the whole street, no, in the entire Qihuamen area, that has Zhu Jihuo. Xiaodongzi said that in your store. The aroma spread ten miles away, and he was so greedy that his mouth watered. He had never smelled such a fragrant dish in the imperial kitchen, but it was a pity that there were people waiting in line. There were too many. He had errands and couldn't taste them. It was a pity that he missed the Queen Mother's peach feast. When he returned to the palace, those who laughed at you, Mr. Xiao Zhu, were all dumbfounded..."
Xiao Zhuozi couldn't help but laugh when he thought about the scene when Xiao Dongzi came back yesterday to tell everyone that Zhu Ji's business was booming. (End of chapter)
