Emperor Taizong's Growth Plan

Chapter 14 Strange Desire to Win

In Xiyi Palace, Nan Rongshu was sitting on the honorable seat, her slender palms tightly gripped the armrests of the chair, her whole body was trembling slightly, apparently suppressing the anger in her heart.

Seeing this, the confidant maid next to her carefully offered the teacup and persuaded:

"Why does the lord need to be angry? Outsiders don't know it, but the servants in the palace know it very well. This little emperor is out of his mind, so why bother with him, and make himself angry instead!"

Nan Rongshu panted heavily, gritted her teeth and said bitterly:

"Fool? Even a fool!"

My old lady is so good-looking, you don't even look at her a few times in the afternoon, you know you're dragging me into a cricket fight, and in the end you still think I'm bad?
The maid also knew that her lord was already quite conceited about her appearance.Now that the little emperor is ignoring her like this, even with a slight dislike, it is more uncomfortable than killing her.

"My lord, maybe the little emperor just doesn't understand, and it's not your problem." The maid had no choice but to follow her temper and comforted her.

Nan Rongshu heard the words, snorted coldly, and said:
"When I was young, I lived in the clan. What did the boys who lived with me know? Aren't they admiring me and following me all day long?"

The maid heard the words, sighed quietly, and did not speak.

Everything is good on my own, but I am too narcissistic!

In fact, back then, the boys in the family followed you because the elders in the family taught them by ear, so they had to follow behind you and obey orders.

If the boys could choose back then, I believe they would be more willing to go out on their own.

Nan Rongshu took a few deep breaths, stroked her loose hair, pursed her lips and hummed:
"I don't believe it anymore! Unless this little emperor likes men, he must bow to me!"

The palace maid squeezed a smile and cautiously persuaded:

"Maybe, the little emperor really likes men?"

Nan Rongshu turned her head to look at the maid, her eyes were burning, and she asked:

"Do you think I'm not as good as those men?"

The maid heard this and sighed softly.

By the way, almost forgot.In addition to narcissism, the owner also has a strong desire to win.

To be honest, these two problems are really annoying sometimes.

Xiao Cheng glanced at the roster handed over by Feng Bao, and said in surprise:

"So many? In just a few days, you have so many favorite candidates?"

The roster sent by Feng Bao is not too thick, but it has seven or eight pages, and it is estimated that hundreds of people's names are recorded.

Xiao Cheng asked him to pick people, but within half a month, there were so many people, which really surprised Xiao Cheng.

Hearing this, Feng Bao bowed and smiled and said:
"Your Majesty, there are three to four thousand eunuchs and maids in the imperial palace alone. Not to mention, there are tens of thousands of imperial guards stationed in the palace. It is easy to pick out a hundred unhappy and bullied ones. These people , all the servants wanted to come here on the grounds that they were transferred to the sticky pole. First observe, and then select the smart and courageous ones from the middle, and this Shangyu spare place will be built slowly."

Hearing this, Xiao Cheng nodded, took the list, and said:
"That's a good idea, you're paying attention.

At the same time, a few lines of characters appeared in the line of sight that only Xiao Cheng could see.

[December 21th, the [-]st year (winter) of Tiande in Dayun Kingdom
Literature: 32 Martial Arts: 9 Morality: 65
Fitness: 80 Age: 15 Health: 72
State treasury: 797 million taels of silver (unusable) Imperial prestige: 5]

Above the upper right corner, there is another line of fonts.

[Location: Shangyu spare place (stick stick)
Introduction: On the surface, it is a miscellaneous agency for the emperor to clean up the songbirds in the palace, but in fact it is a spy agency that goes around spying on information and eradicating dissidents.

Functions: (assassination), (undercover), (intelligence collection), (framing), (wooing)...]

Just when Xiao Cheng took over the list, suddenly, a slightly illusory form appeared in Xiao Cheng's sight.

On the form, the names, ages, identities, abilities, and loyalty of more than a hundred eunuchs, maids, and guards were densely written.All kinds of values ​​can be seen at a glance.

Among these people, there are quite a few people, and their various abilities are not bad.It's just that when Xiao Cheng looked at the values ​​in the column of loyalty, they were all not high.

In fact, it is no wonder that the authority of Yun Kingdom's royal family is declining day by day, and the news that Xiao Cheng's mind is confused is also circulating among the servants in the palace.Under such circumstances, the loyalty value of these people can still be maintained at around 600 on average, thanks to Xiao's [-] years of prestige.

Now that Xiao Cheng is in a wretched state, these people are obviously unusable.If one is not careful, he turns around and sells Xiao Cheng, which is no fun.

"Next, what are you going to do?" Xiao Cheng closed the form tiredly, turned his head and asked Feng Bao.

Hearing Xiao Cheng's inquiry, Feng Bao was well prepared, and hurriedly said:
"Your Majesty, there are a few people who are suitable for my servants. But the Grand Master is powerful now, and the people in the palace are used to changing the direction of the wind. It is inevitable that some people's minds will be shaken. All the servants plan to condense these people into a rope. .”

"Tell me!" Xiao Cheng raised his hand and said.

Feng Bao continued:
"The positions of Yong'an Cheng, Yuan Zhong Cheng, and Guo Cheng in the palace are all held by eunuchs. Although these positions are humble and unobtrusive, they have great power. Many of them can go out of the palace in a fair manner. The servant girl plans to, Pushing the subordinates to these positions, on the one hand, it will give benefits to win people's hearts, and on the other hand, it will also be able to connect to the outside of the palace, so that they will not be blinded."

"Okay, you do it with all your heart." Xiao Cheng nodded in satisfaction and said.

When Feng Bao heard this, he immediately saluted respectfully, turned around and was about to go down to plan.

At this moment, Xiao Cheng suddenly remembered something, and called out to stop Feng Bao.

"By the way, you should find a way to find out about this concubine."

Feng Bao couldn't help being taken aback when he heard this, and asked:

"Concubine Zhang? I don't know what His Majesty wants to know."

"Just check on Princess Zhang's sister..."

Xiao Cheng spoke halfway, but suddenly paused, changed the topic, and said:
"Forget it, I shouldn't be able to find out anything. You go and find out, how did the concubine and the servants in Ling Zhaoyi's palace come here, and there is something strange about their daily behavior."

First of all, Concubine Zhang had been protecting Xiao Cheng before, and she and Grand Master Wang Xiao were obviously not on the same side.

And if Concubine Zhang and Nan Rongshu were really together, since they dared to enter the palace, and they were able to make arrangements under the watchful eyes of Grand Master Wang Xiao for so many years, the beginning and end of the two involving the two must have been cleaned up.If you go to investigate at this time, you will definitely find nothing.

But in the palace, the rules are strict, and there are many servants in the palace.The two wanted to cause trouble in the palace, and the eunuchs and maids around them definitely had problems.Otherwise, it would be impossible to be so watertight.

If you want to find clues, those servants in the palace are the key!

Hearing Xiao Cheng's words, Feng Bao immediately understood in his heart that the harem was not peaceful either.

He didn't dare to ask any more questions, so he hurriedly bowed and left.

　Well, it broke out a bit today, and with the manuscript saved, there should be no need to ask for leave.
