Chapter two hundred tears of joy
The visitor from the imperial concubine, Eunuch Wei, had met several times, and was named Pang Bao.
For this person, my father-in-law was really the life-saving benefactor, because Pang Bao and Liu Chengcai were the real parties involved in the attack, and the one who took the direct action was Zhang Chai, the bad gambling man he met on the way to Beijing.
The mastermind behind this case, the Donglin Party member who tried the case, and one of the doctors of the Ministry of Justice, was determined to be Concubine Zheng. Instead of the trial officials of the Donglin Party, they believed that it was a bitter plan directed and acted by the Prince of the East Palace, with the purpose of framed Concubine Zheng.
No one knows what the truth is, so the "Strike Case" was listed as one of the three major suspects in the late Ming Dynasty.
Thanks to his father-in-law running around in the imperial city to protect birds, he staged the "Shooting Case" in advance. Although it led to Chongzhen's mother Wang Cairen receiving the lunch box in advance, he also formed a deep fighting friendship with Xili, making Xili one of the "iron triangles" that her father-in-law laid out in the Tianqi Dynasty.
In addition, the real "strike case" was also invisibly eliminated, because one of the parties involved Liu Cheng had been wiped out by his father-in-law.
Therefore, as long as Concubine Zheng was not really crazy and wanted to find someone to kill Zhu Changluo, the "strike case" would theoretically not happen again.
In this way, Pang Bao would never have been able to fall into the ground, and Zhang Cha's bad gambling man could not have wandered around the palace with a big wooden stick.
But Pang Bao didn't know that Eunuch Wei was his life-saving benefactor, but he was very afraid of Eunuch Wei. The reason was that Jiang Lishan, the eunuch in charge of Yikun Palace, and Liu Cheng, both asked Eunuch Wei to take him out of the palace and then disappeared from the world.
As a person in the palace of the Imperial Concubine, Pang Bao must also know the status of Eunuch Wei in the mind of the Imperial Concubine, so he was very pleased throughout the journey.
In response to this, Eunuch Wei received it, talked to him for a few words, and asked casually: "How can I be, Empress?"
Pang Bao said: "The Empress is so happy, she is just unable to move with her body."
"Is the Empress pregnant?"
Eunuch Wei said "Huh" and said, "The Imperial Concubine is OK. She is a grandma outside of forty, and she can still spit out beads with clams. She is really good at maintaining her. But deep down, she is so sour inexplicably. This old boy, Wanli, is unauthorized.
"Don't you know? Oh, yes, my father-in-law has been outside for the past six months, so he doesn't know what's going on in the palace."
Pang Bao didn't think about it and told Eunuch Wei that the Imperial Hospital said that the Empress was about to give birth in two months.
"Thank you for your hard work, this woman is pregnant for ten months."
Speaking of this, Eunuch Wei suddenly "shocked": If you are pregnant for ten months, then the time will be calculated up. Wouldn't the day when the imperial concubine won the bid be in April?
If he remembers correctly, in April, he and the Empress had an unspeakable incident in the West Mountain.
Could it be?!
My father-in-law was stunned, his heart was like a big drum beater, and he kept beating "dongdong".
"What's wrong with my father-in-law?"
Pang Bao looked at Eunuch Wei with confusion on the side, not understanding why he didn't leave. After calling again, Eunuch Wei reacted and waved his hand to Pang Bao, "No, nothing."
Because of this, Eunuch Wei became restless on the way. He suspected that it could not be his, and then he suspected that it could be his. Is this or not? It is really tormenting.
If not, we will be happy and we can still be friends happily.
If so, it would be a big trouble. If his family's blood becomes Zhu Ming's royal family, how can he recognize his ancestors and return to his hometown in the future?
One Shiqi has already caused a headache for my father-in-law, and another one has come, and my father-in-law is ashamed of being embarrassed.
I vaguely felt that the imperial concubine called him over, maybe it was related to this matter. When I thought about it, Eunuch Wei became even more panicked and asked Pang Bao if he knew that the imperial concubine called him, but Pang Bao didn't know.
"Don't worry, father-in-law. The empress is very happy when she heard that her father-in-law is back. There will be no bad things." Pang Bao whispered.
Eunuch Wei nodded slightly, took out a silver ingot from his sleeve and handed it to Pang Bao. Pang Bao was flattered and thanked him very much.
Halfway through the way, I saw four young men in front of me carrying a stretcher and turning out from the temple prison. There were two middle-aged eunuchs crying behind the stretcher, which looked like they were all unqualified.
It looks like someone in the prison died. This is normal, and there are a lot of people in the palace, and birth, old age, sickness and death are common.
Eunuch Wei was thinking about the concubine's belly in his mind, so he didn't have the time to think about it, so he didn't look at it much, but when he passed by the pedestrian, his eyebrows jumped, and he stopped by a strange man and asked, "Who are you carrying?"
A middle-aged eunuch following behind the stretcher saw that Eunuch Wei was wearing the clothes of a fifth-rank official, and did not dare to neglect. He stopped sobbing and said respectfully: "Reply to my father-in-law, it is Master Chen from the Jingshifang."
Master Chen from the Jingshifang?
Eunuch Wei's expression changed, and he stepped forward and lifted the white cloth on the stretcher. When he looked closely, his skin couldn't help but twitch and let out a "huh".
At the same time as this sound, my father-in-law was so happy that he was in his heart!
Because the old man who didn't move on the stretcher, who could not die anymore was the old eunuch who had to tie the red rope to his father-in-law's bird!
"Eunuch Chen, you are old"
The excited Eunuch Wei had lost his voice, holding the white cloth tightly with both hands, looking heartbroken. This look only made Pang Bao think that Eunuch Wei recognized Master Chen. Just as he was about to pretend to howl twice, he saw Eunuch Wei suddenly straightened up and waved his hand to the young men carrying the corpse: "Come away, it's melted."
"Yes, father-in-law."
The young men hurriedly said that when they were about to leave, the young father-in-law called them again.
"Where is Master Wang from the Jingshifang? Master Chen is also very sad when he leaves." Eunuch Wei sighed.
The middle-aged eunuch who had just replied hurriedly said, "My father-in-law doesn't know anything. Master Wang passed away two years ago."
"ah?"
After Eunuch Wei's face was thrusting, he finally resisted the urge to laugh loudly.
One, two, three, four, five
My father-in-law must be unhappy. The palace knew that there were five people who had not been cleaned. Apart from the Wanli couple, there were two old experts in the Clean Room. The rest was Zhang Cheng, who swallowed a lot of his Dongzhu.
Now that the two old experts have passed away one after another, only three people are left to know the truth.
After calculating, Wanli has four years of life, and the imperial concubine will live for a long time, but she is his dear Eunuch Wei. In theory, as long as Zhang Cheng makes a fuss, Eunuch Wei in the palace can be regarded as his own family and go in and out at will. Even, Eunuch Wei can be promoted a few more steps and transferred back to the center to taste the taste of writing.
Well, this is really the best thing my father-in-law knows in more than half a year. I couldn't help it. My father-in-law shed a drop of crocodile tears.
