If it weren't for his fear of death in stopping King Yan's horse and Mao Sui recommending himself to lead King Yan's horse, Ji Gang would have died there for the rest of his life. How could he be as powerful as he is now?

Both of them came from the military, so Ji Gang was destined to be somewhat respectful when facing Zheng He.

What's more, Zheng He was one of the most powerful eunuchs in the palace.

Fortunately, Ji Gang was not in a state where he dared to confront Zheng He.

Ji Gang only said: "Isn't the Sanbao eunuch pretending to be a jailer and guarding the door of the literacy class? Then Mr. Jiang must have seen you."

Zheng He frowned slightly: "It was all in the dark at that time, and Jiang Xinghuo's attention was all on the house, and it wasn't even a one-time relationship. Can he remember it clearly?"

"It's hard to say."

Ji Gang thought deeply: "In order not to be exposed, it is better to ask the eunuch Sanbao to put on makeup, otherwise His Majesty will blame him, and Ji really can't afford it."

Zheng He nodded. The emperor must have had moments when he was not thinking clearly. At this time, subordinates would have to quietly take up the blame.

"Commander Ji is as careful as his hair, you've got your work done!" Zheng He said with his hands in hand.

Ji Gang smiled and said: "Wait a moment, Eunuch Sanbao. Ji will send someone to find Xiao Qi, who is in charge of disguise in Fusi, Beizhen."

"Wait a moment."

Zheng He called Ji Gang, his face remained calm, he just nodded slightly and said.

"One more thing is that my masters Daoyan, Yuan Zhenren, and Zhang Tianshi didn't calculate it before."

Ji Gang was startled: "Is he a banished immortal?"

"Yes, your Majesty sent someone to ask me to verify it for the last time." Zheng He said, "There are many strange people in the world. Mr. Jiang Xinghuo Jiang has always been known as an immortal. Does your Majesty have the ability to predict the future?

Completely confirmed. At that time, I was thinking, why not, I have always had a deep-seated wish that I don’t know whether it can be realized, so I just went to test it myself in the past few days, so that whether it is true or not, I will have an explanation to Master."

"By the way, I have three more requests in the past few days. I hope Commander Ji can fulfill them." Zheng He requested seriously.

"Sanbao eunuch just said it doesn't matter."

Ji Gang smiled heartily.

"Absolutely treat him like an ordinary prisoner, never leak any news, and never come to visit him."

Ji Gang naturally could not refuse the request of the emperor's confidant and disciple of Dao Yan, so he readily agreed.

"Don't worry, Sanbao eunuch, we will definitely do it."

After talking about the business, Ji Gang sent someone to find Xiao Qi, who was in charge of makeup. The two sat in the side hall and chatted about miscellaneous things.

"By the way, I actually have a small matter that I want to trouble Eunuch Sanbao with." Ji Gang's expression suddenly became a little uneasy.

"Oh? Commander Ji, please speak." Zheng He put down his tea cup.

"Um, didn't Sanbao eunuch go to Wanli Shitang?"

As soon as Ji Gang's words came out of his mouth, Zheng He's face turned dark as if in a stress reaction.

It’s not over, right?

Ji Gang said quickly: "The Sanbao Eunuch may not know that some time ago, when Ji went to Jiangnan with His Majesty to investigate the 'Zhou Jin rebellion case', His Majesty picked up a baby girl and gave it to Ji to raise. Ji heard that there was a girl in Wanli Shitang.

There are rare 'mermaid tears', I wonder if eunuch Sanbao can catch some. If so, Ji would like to shamelessly ask for one as a gift for the first week of next year."

The so-called ‘mermaid tears’ is actually another name for South Sea pearls.

Zheng He breathed a long sigh of relief and just said: "Of course there is. It's a trivial matter. I'll send someone to Commander Ji's residence later."

“It couldn’t be better.”

Ji Gang smiled slightly.

Not long after, Xiao Qi, who was in charge of makeup from Jinyiweibei Town Fusi, came to the side hall carrying a box of tools.

"Master Commander, what do you need to transform into?"

"What do Eunuch Sanbao think?" Ji Gang looked at Zheng He.

Zheng He pondered for a moment and said: "It's better to be someone who is more in contrast to me now, and it's better to be more masculine."

"Is there any problem?" Ji Gang asked, looking at Xiao Qi who was in charge of makeup.

Xiaoqi nodded repeatedly and said: "No problem, you can rest assured that our craftsmanship is definitely the most contrasting and masculine!"

That night, a tall prisoner with a red face and a long beard packed his bags and checked into the prison cell. The cell was next to Jiang Xinghuo's.

"Get in!"

In his sleepy state, Jiang Xinghuo heard the jailer's scolding and the jingle of shackles. He rubbed his eyes and woke up. He looked out through the small window of the cell door.

Huh, what a good candidate for Guan Gong!

This man has a muscular build, a red complexion, and a three-foot-long beard. He is not angry and intimidating, and his murderous aura makes people tremble.

With heavy shackles hanging on his body, it was obvious that he had committed something serious. Several jailers with knives were waiting to escort him into the cell passage.

Probably because he was impatient at being pushed, the big man just glared coldly, and the jailer who was about to scold him retracted his head.

This big man was none other than Zheng He, the eunuch of Sanbao. His face was originally dark, but Xiao Qi, who was in charge of makeup from Jinyiwei, painted it red with special paint.

Zheng He's beard, which was originally unable to grow due to castration, was glued on with a long fake beard.

Zheng He held his head high and strode forward in the cell passage with heavy handcuffs and shackles as if on patrol. He even walked away from the jailer several times and went straight to the cell where Jiang Xinghuo was held where Ji Gang told him.

Jiang Xinghuo was lying lazily on his side on a pile of straw, as if he was on vacation on the beach.

Zheng He paused and looked at Jiang Xinghuo through the small window of the cell door.

"You are quite leisurely."

Jiang Xinghuo was so sleepy that he didn't bother to pay attention to him. He just said something casually and turned over to fall asleep.

“Wherever you have the sea in your heart, there is the Maldives.”

“Where is the Maldives?”

Jiang Xinghuo casually took out the globe he made from the straw pile, touched the texture with his hands behind his back, and then pointed.

"here."

This thing had been carved with the golden knife donated by Li Jinglong long before the "Prison Essay" that made him die.

Zheng He was a little disapproving at first, but when he saw the location of "Maldives" on the globe, his pupils suddenly shrank!

However, before Zheng He could continue to ask questions, the sword-wielding jailer behind him followed him.

Since Zheng He specifically told Ji Gang, ‘You must be treated as an ordinary prisoner, you must never let the news leak out, and you must never come to visit’, these jailers did not know Zheng He’s true identity, so they directly pushed him with a knife.

Zheng He's eyes widened in anger.

"How dare you? I am..."

Several jailers just couldn't stand the ridicule.

"It won't work even if grandma you are here. I don't care who you are?"

"This is a prison. A high-ranking official died of starvation just the day before yesterday. Do you understand?"

Zheng He clenched his fists with both hands, and the joints of his sandbag-sized fists creaked. Finally, he seemed to have thought of something, and glared fiercely at Jiang Xinghuo, who was turning over to watch the show.

Jiang Xinghuo looked confused. It's not me who provoked you. Why are you glaring at me?

Fortunately, Jiang Xinghuo always had a big heart and had no intention of arguing with the grumpy inmate who lived next door. Unable to sleep, Jiang Xinghuo took out the globe he had made for free from the straw pile and planned to continue to improve it.
