The passersby on the streets of Luoyang seemed to be used to the prestige of the Chinese traditional medicine's eunuchs, and chose to avoid them from afar, fleeing in all directions like they were fleeing from a plague. A few strangers who had come from other places did not know what was going on, but they craned their necks to look in front of them.
”Let's go, let's go! The chief eunuch, Zhang Fu, is here! Do you all not want to live anymore?”
Some kind people immediately reminded the strangers that they were greeting them as they ran away. At this moment, those strangers no longer had any interest in watching the show. It was as if they had seen a mad dog, and with a ”squeak” they disappeared into the alley.
Zhang's troops strutted down the street, as if the Emperor was out on a patrol. The street was extremely quiet. Even the cries of children could not be heard. Even the one or two crying sounds were extremely short. It must be someone's child whose mouth was tightly covered by his mother.
When Zhang Jean returned to his residence, the streets were bustling with noise and excitement, and everything was back to normal.
Zhang Jean's mansion was a building that was taller than even the palace itself. It resided majestically in the Luoyang City. It was said that in order to prevent the emperor from finding out, Zhang Rong told the emperor that ”The Son of Heaven cannot ascend the throne, and disaster will befall upon one's life” to deceive the Spirit Emperor, and this unconscious king actually believed it to be true, never to go back to a higher place ever again, and even proclaimed Zhang Ye's father.
”Chief Steward, Arrowhead's messenger has been waiting for a long time. Will Chief Steward see him or not?” A Young Eunuch among his trusted aides ran over and reported to Zhang Jean in a low voice.
He calmly lifted the cup of water and took a sip. He then put the cup down and said to the Young Eunuch: ”Let him in.”
After waiting for a long time, Xin Ping suppressed the anger in her heart and followed Young Eunuch into Zhang Jean's hall. He straightened her clothes, cupped her fists, and bowed deeply to Zhang Qian. ”I raised my head and looked at Zhang Jean with a face full of smiles.” Youzhou, who is involved in the business, Xin Ping greets Chief Steward. ”
”What have you come all this way for?” Zhang asked in his chicken like voice, and suddenly he felt goosebumps all over his body.
Returning to Chief Steward, Lord General is extremely grateful for Chief Steward's kindness. I had wanted to personally thank Chief Steward for his help, so why would I allow Youzhou to surround my surroundings? Now that Pitiful Moslems has started a rebellion again, Lord General has no choice but to personally go out and seek revenge. Xin Ping said indifferently and then bowed again.
”Since you are busy dealing with the rebellion, what are you doing here?” Zhang Jean asked lazily with his triangular eyes.
”When returning to Chief Steward, Lord General said that no matter how busy he is, he must not forget about Chief Steward. This is Lord General's Recital, I hope Chief Steward can help me pass it to the Emperor. At the same time, Lord General requested for Chief Steward to tell the Emperor that the Lord General is unscrupulous and uninterested in the position of the Three Great Clans. This was entirely due to Liu Bei, Gongsun Zan and the other despicable people colluding together. If it's convenient for Chief Steward, it would be best to call them out of Youzhou so that they don't harm Youzhou. ” After Xin Ping finished speaking, she respectfully handed over a small booklet.
”The Emperor already knows about you pacifying the Leroy County. Put the Recital there.” ”Yes, sir,” Zhang Jean replied indifferently. As for Liu Bei, Gongsun Zan, it is said that their reputation is very good, and in that moment, I am afraid there is no reason for us to let them go. ”
”These two fellows love to make a name for themselves and gain fame. I hope Chief Steward can observe.” Xin Ping put down the Recital and immediately carried a box from behind. She placed it in front of Zhang Rong with a very serious expression and said carefully: ”Chief Steward, this is a treasure passed down from the ancestors of Lord General. It is specially here to honor you.
Xin Ping said as she slowly opened the chest that held the treasures. In the case, she saw a pair of butterfly pattern jars covered with red flowers. The jars were round belly, round mouth, and round feet, and the helmet was covered with a red falling ruby pattern around the head. The lid was covered with a small round peach leaf; the jars were covered with red phoenix through peony and chrysanthemum, and the butterflies were flying in the middle of the jars.
Chang looked straight ahead, not daring to breathe. In the palace, he could be considered to be very knowledgeable. However, he had never seen such a treasure before, because he didn't know what this thing was made of. How could it be so beautiful and luxurious?
”How can I accept this? let the Lord General spend it. ” Zhang Jean wasn't polite. He was already used to being rude.
”Chief Steward, Lord General has one more request. Lord General was a set of Confucian classics, and urgently needed a few Confucian Scholars to come and compare them. After hearing that Cai Yong had offended the Chief Steward, he was about to be exiled. Lord General asks Chief Steward to expel Cai Yong from Youzhou, to have him compose books for his entire life, so he will no longer cause Chief Steward any trouble. ” Xin Ping then handed over a small booklet to Zhang Qian.
”Mm …” The corner of Zhang Jean's mouth twitched as he squinted his triangular eyes. According to his meaning, he wanted nothing more than to execute Cai Yong, but that Cai Yong had just impeached the position of eunuch, at most, it would be exile, and it would not be bad for him to write a book for Yang Lin. I already know. ”
”Thank you Chief Steward, then I will take my leave.” Xin Ping said softly.
”Bye.” Zhang Kai did not even raise his hands, the sharp voice giving Xin Ping goosebumps.
Just as Xin Ping walked out of the living room, Zhang Nan impatiently picked up Yang Lin's treasure and started admiring it. They were indeed a pair of beautiful treasures, so beautiful that he could not bear to touch them. But after looking for a long time, he still didn't know what it was. More importantly, he had no way of knowing how valuable the treasure was.
