"Is this an attempt to drive a wedge between me and Emperor Deqing?"

Thinking about what Zhou Shangjing had done, Zhao Junchen frowned slightly and thought secretly. (To read the latest chapters of this book, please visit the biquge.info of Wรจn Aishang Novel Network)

When Zhao Junchen had just returned to Beijing, Zhou Shangjing had used "entering the cabinet" as a bait, wanting Zhao Junchen to join him to stop Emperor Deqing's southern tour.

But at that time, Zhou Shangjing was to stop Emperor Deqing's southern tour, but now that Emperor Deqing's southern tour has been decided, why did he do this?

Could it be that he still wants to form an alliance with Zhao Junchen?

For Zhao Junchen, this is simply impossible.

Zhao Junchen didn't know how wide and long the bottom line of Emperor Deqing's tolerance for himself was, but Zhao Junchen knew very well that he was friendly and close to Zhou Shangjing, and it was by no means within the scope of Emperor Deqing's tolerance.

If he disobeys Emperor Deqing, Zhao Junchen is not like Zhou Shangjing, who is full of students all over the world, and his influence is deep-rooted, even if Emperor Deqing wants to deal with Zhou Shangjing, he can only check and balance first, and then start slowly. Now Zhao Junchen's foundation is still shallow, the most important thing is to rely on the support of Emperor Deqing, once he disobeys Emperor Deqing, the end will definitely be unimaginable, so, at least in a short period of time, no matter what Zhao Junchen thinks of Emperor Deqing, he can only follow everything.

"These Zhou Shangjing should also be able to think of it, so what is the purpose of his doing this?" Zhao Junchen frowned and muttered to himself: "However, no matter what, it is imperative to repair relations with those eunuchs in the inner court. โ€

Yes, at this time, Zhao Junchen instead thought of repairing relations with the eunuchs of the inner court.

Because, Zhou Shangjing seems to have the idea of separating Zhao Junchen and Emperor Deqing, Zhao Junchen is not worried that he will be affected, but Zhao Junchen is very worried that Emperor Deqing will be affected! Therefore, it is inevitable to repair the relationship with the eunuchs of the inner court.

Of course, Zhao Junchen will not do too much, as long as the eunuchs in the inner court are no longer hostile to him, can occasionally reveal some news to Zhao Junchen, and even say some good things for Zhao Junchen in front of Emperor Deqing at some times, Zhao Junchen will be very satisfied.

Zhao Junchen once wanted to make friends with Liu Qing, the eunuch in charge of the inner court's inner court, and also expressed his intention to Liu Qing through the fact that Emperor Deqing's entourage was too close to Zhang De, but perhaps because the result of the gambling contract between Zhao Junchen and the crown prince Zhu and Yu was undecided, Zhao Junchen's side also failed to get a response.

However, now that everything has been decided, I want to come to Liu Qing's side soon.

โ€ฆโ€ฆโ€ฆ

In the evening, Zhao Junchen came to Tianhai Tower again, this restaurant is not low-grade, and it is very close to Zhao's mansion, and the dishes are also in line with Zhao Junchen's taste, so all kinds of banquets, Zhao Junchen has always arranged here.

When Zhao Junchen appeared, all the officials who came to Tianhailou for the banquet greeted each other.

There were many visitors, including officials from the DPRK and China who had already taken refuge in Zhao Junchen, such as Zuo Lanshan, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, Tong Huan, the envoy of the General Administration, Zhan Shanchang, the new head of the Ministry of Households, Li Lide, the head of the Criminal Department, Chen Dongxiang, the head of the Ministry of Works, Gu Quan, the right deputy of the Inspectorate, and some officials in charge of the Ministry of Households, the Ministry of Industry, and the Ministry of Rites, who are also the main forces of Zhao Junchen's current disciples.

And more visitors are some court officials who intend to take refuge or intend to get closer to Zhao Junchen after seeing Zhao Junchen's rise to power, compared with the former, they have lower power positions, but they are more numerous.

Zhao Junchen held a banquet this time, called the reward after being promoted, but in fact, one was to get closer to Zuo Lanshan, Gu Quan and other new people who had taken refuge, and the other was to see which other officials in the DPRK and China wanted to take refuge in him, and took the opportunity to choose among them.

In the greetings of "Congratulations to Lord Zhao on his promotion" and "I have seen Lord Shangshu", Zhao Junchen was as polite and easy-going as ever, and with the support of all officials, he came to the second floor of Tianhai Building, and sat down separately between mutual politeness.

There, there were six tables at the banquet, and after the officials were seated, they were packed, which showed the influence of Zhao Junchen's current status.

However, after taking his seat, Zhao Junchen did not speak, nor did he announce the opening of the meeting, but glanced back and forth between the officials, as if looking for something, seeing Zhao Junchen like this, although the officials were puzzled, they did not dare to speak at will, just waited quietly.

After a while, Zhao Junchen finally found his target on the table in the corner, but it was Jiang Qian, a member of the household department.

"Jiang Qian, why are you sitting there? Come here with the officer, and the officer will also introduce a few adults to you. โ€

Zhao Junchen beckoned to Jiang Qian.

After hearing Zhao Junchen's words, all the officials focused their eyes on Jiang Qian, or envy or jealousy or doubt, Zhao Junchen's statement was obviously not only treating Jiang Qian as a cronie, but also deliberately promoting him.

When Jiang Qian heard Zhao Junchen say this, a trace of flattered excitement flashed on his face, you must know that the officials sitting at the same table with Zhao Junchen at this time are all courtiers with real power above the third grade, and they are also the objects that Zhao Junchen wants to focus on, Zhao Junchen wants him to sit there, which shows that Zhao Junchen values him.

Although he was a little worried about attracting the jealousy of everyone, Jiang Qian didn't dare to ignore it, so he quickly came to Zhao Junchen's table, bowed down and said, "Jiang Qian, a member of the lower official household department, has seen Lord Shangshu and all of you. โ€

Jiang Qian's expression and attitude showed his humble duty, and after seeing Zhao Junchen's attention to him, all the members of the team were also more polite, and nodded their heads one after another.

And when Zhao Junchen waved his hand, Jiang Qian also sat down cautiously.

After Jiang Qian sat down, Zhao Junchen smiled at Zuo Lanshan, Zhan Shanchang and others: "Although this Jiang Qian is not very old, and he is only a member of the household department, he has always been able to do things effectively and is quite talented. โ€

Although Zhao Junchen was talking to the people around him, his voice was not small, and the officials were attentive to listen, so most of them could hear it clearly.

In this way, Zhao Junchen used Jiang Qian to show his attitude - after taking refuge in Zhao Junchen, as long as he works hard and loyally, then Zhao Junchen will definitely not treat him badly.

Zhao Junchen's meaning could be seen by most of the officials present, either with peace of mind or eagerness.

However, perhaps it was Zhao Junchen's statement that stimulated the nerves of some people, but before Zhao Junchen got up to speak and announced the opening of the banquet, an official who Zhao Junchen did not know suddenly stood up, raised his glass to Zhao Junchen and said: "Lord Zhao is really generous-minded, cherishes talents, and admires the officials very much. โ€

However, although this person's voice was loud, there were few responders, and even many officials couldn't help frowning and showing dissatisfaction.

Officialdom has the rules of officialdom, and the wine field has the rules of the wine field, when Zhao Junchen has not yet announced the banquet, this person's behavior, although it is to please Zhao Junchen, but whether it is in the officialdom or in the wine field, it is obviously not in accordance with the rules.
