Zhao Zhen has been in charge of the "Storytelling Guild" for a period of time, and he can be regarded as a public eye, which makes him have the illusion that he is also a big man.

Therefore, when he saw the dense carriage and sedan chairs outside the Zhao Mansion, his face was also full of pride, with a condescending attitude, as if the owners of these carriage sedan chairs came to please himself, and he also felt honored to be a member of the Zhao Mansion.

"Hehe, Lord Zhao is now not only officially admitted to the cabinet and has become a cabinet elder, but also canonized as a noble earl, and there is no one in the Manchu Dynasty except Zhou Shangjing...... No, Zhou Shangjing is dying of old age, maybe when he will return to his hometown, the imperial court will inevitably be the dominant situation of our Lord Zhao family in the future! At that time, the lives of those of us servants of the Zhao Mansion will inevitably be much more comfortable...... is the so-called seven-rank official in front of the prime minister's house, saying that the gatekeeper in the prime minister's mansion is equivalent to the seven-rank county, and I am now the confidant in Lord Zhao's mansion, how many officials is this? At least it's the prefect of the fifth grade, right? ……

…… When Lord Zhao returned to the capital, after many things settled, I asked Mr. Xu to leave the capital and return to his hometown in Xiangxi for a period of time, and then directly found the local magistrate of Xiangxi's hometown, and revealed to him the identity of my Zhao Mansion manager, and a magistrate will definitely do everything possible to please me at that time, and if I want to get in touch with Lord Zhao through me, I can also circle more than 1,000 acres of fertile land near my hometown through this magistrate, and then my family will be a big landlord in Xiangxi......

…… But I can't be too anxious to leave the capital, I set up the 'Storytelling Guild' during this time can be regarded as a great contribution to Lord Zhao, and now the people of the capital have praised Lord Zhao, this is all my credit, and when Lord Zhao returns to the capital, he will definitely be rewarded for meritorious deeds, and I still receive the reward first before making a decision...... It's best to send me to the United Shipping Company to do business, where there is the most oil and water, and with my status as a Zhao Mansion, no one will dare to take care of it even if I make a little money for myself at that time......"

While thinking about it, Zhao Zhen entered the Zhao Mansion briskly, only to see that the front courtyard of the Zhao Mansion was full of various gifts, and all the servants of the Zhao Mansion were busy ushering in and sending them off, everyone had a proud expression, and there was a faint trace of arrogance when facing the guests, obviously the vast majority of the people in the Zhao Mansion were similar to Zhao Zhen.

This is the case of the so-called one-person attainment of the Tao and the ascension of the chicken dog to heaven.

However, when Zhao Zhen walked into the back house of the Zhao Mansion, he quickly restrained the smugness in his expression and put on a respectful and cautious attitude.

The Ruyi lady in the Zhao Mansion is not easy to deal with, Zhao Zhen is the old man of the Zhao Mansion, and he is also well aware of the character of this Ruyi Lady, knowing that Fang Ru's mood at this time is only a little bad, at this time, once Fang Ru finds something dissatisfied, it will definitely be a heavy punishment.

*

In fact, just as Zhao Zhen speculated in his heart, Fang Ru was not in a good mood at this time.

Zhao Junchen's entry into the cabinet and the canonization of the earl is of course a great joy, just looking at the current guests of the Zhao Mansion and competing to celebrate, it can be seen, Fang Ru will naturally be happy for Zhao Junchen.

It's a pity that Fang Ru is only Zhao Junchen's concubine in name, so she can only hide in the back house to deal with all kinds of miscellaneous things at this time, and the person who meets the guests on behalf of Zhao Junchen is Cui Qianxue, the nominal hostess of Zhao Mansion, so Fang Ru can't personally feel Zhao Junchen's glory time.

In this way, Fang Ru was naturally in a bad mood.

However, compared to Zhang Yu'er beside Fang Ru, Fang Ru's situation is quite good.

Zhao Junchen's favor for Fang Ru has long been an open secret, many people know that Fang Ru is the de facto mistress of the Zhao Mansion, and many of Zhao Junchen's properties and affairs are managed by Fang Ru, so when the guests come to the Zhao Mansion today to congratulate, many people will also prepare a gift for Fang Ru.

But Zhang Yuer's situation is completely different, most people don't know that there is a Zhang Yuer in the Zhao Mansion, so they will not prepare gifts for Zhang Yuer, so the lively scene in the Zhao Mansion has nothing to do with Zhang Yuer.

When Zhao Zhen asked to see Fang Ru, Fang Ru was discussing with Zhang Yu'er what had happened in the morning this morning.

During this period of time, the situation in the imperial court has changed rapidly, and Fang Ru also felt powerless to deal with it, so after Zhang Yuer returned to the capital, he shared information and planned with Zhang Yuer.

When Zhao Zhen entered the room, he heard Zhang Yu'er say in a coquettish voice: "Master, he is really clever and far-sighted, we were worried about Your Majesty some time ago that he would finally count all the military exploits of Shaanxi and Gansu on the head of Liang Fuchen, so that our lord's bamboo basket would be empty, and he also specially prepared many means for this, but I didn't expect that our lord did not leave His Majesty any chance to divide up the military merits, and now he has monopolized all the glory!" We were worried at the beginning, but now in retrospect, we are too worried, what we can think of, how can he not think of it? Naturally, there are already preparations and chances of winning! ”

As she spoke, Zhang Yu'er's wonderful eyes turned, glanced at Zhao Zhen who entered the room, and said with a smile: "And this 'storytelling guild', who would have thought that the storyteller, who was originally just a ninth-rate storyteller, would play such a big role after being secretly controlled by the master?" Four months ago, the whole capital was talking about "The Complete Biography of Yue", and I also heard about it, but I didn't expect that it would be the foreshadowing of the old man for today's situation! If it weren't for the foreshadowing of "The Complete Biography of Yue", the master's achievements today would not have such a big repercussion, and such a method is really amazing in retrospect! ”

Unlike Fang Ru's complicated thoughts, Zhang Yu'er was not unhappy at all because she was ignored by the guests, she was just indulged in Zhao Junchen's various exquisite plans and was extremely excited.

For Zhang Yuer, as long as she can participate in Zhao Junchen's plan, it is enough, she doesn't care about those false names.

After Zhang Yuer returned to Beijing, the diamond powder in her stomach was quickly dissolved, coupled with the recuperation methods of Zhang Decheng, a famous doctor in Zhaofu, now most of her body has recovered, and she has also regained her former charming appearance.

At this time, Zhang Yuer just glanced at Zhao Zhen with her wonderful eyes, which made Zhao Zhen can't help but feel a wave in his heart.

Zhao Zhen didn't dare to show more abnormalities, for fear that it would cause Fang Ru and Zhang Yu'er to be unhappy, so he hurriedly saluted and said, "The villain has seen Mrs. Ruyi and ...... Miss Yu'er! ”

When calling Zhang Yuer, Zhao Zhen hesitated slightly, but chose the title of "Miss".

Zhao Zhen knew that Zhang Yu'er's scheming methods were better than Fang Ru's, and he would have a position in the Zhao Mansion sooner or later, but he still didn't dare to use "madam" to be called "madam", for fear that he would violate Fang Ru's taboo.

After Fang Ru heard Zhao Zhen's different titles, a trace of satisfaction flashed in his eyes, and he asked slowly: "After the storyteller told the story of the master, what was the reaction of the people?" ”

Zhao Zhen hurriedly said in a flattering tone: "The response is excellent, and the people have now changed their attitudes, not only thinking that our master is a hero and virtuous, but also that our master is regarded as the first saint in a hundred years!" ”

While speaking, Zhao Zhen told Fang Ru and Zhang Yuer in detail about the scene in the teahouse.

After Fang Ru and Zhang Yuer glanced at each other, Fang Ru didn't seem to have any more opinions, but Zhang Yuer said: "It's still far from enough, we must continue to increase publicity!" According to what you said, the tea customers in Yuelai Teahouse today easily believe the storyteller Zhang Yunqing's statement, but most of those tea customers are old customers who often listen to Zhang Yunqing's commentary, and they already have some trust in Zhang Yunqing, so they are more likely to accept this story, but the vast majority of people are afraid that it is difficult to change their impression in a short period of time, so our next plan is to let more people accept this story, and we must make certain results before the master returns to the capital! ”

Zhao Zhen nodded again and again: "The villain understands!" ”

After Zhao Zhen received the order, seeing that Fang Ru and Zhang Yuer had no more instructions, they hurriedly said goodbye and left, not daring to disturb the second daughter to discuss things.

As soon as Zhao Zhen left the room, he saw another Zhao servant enter the room and report: "Mrs. Ruyi, Miss Zhang, this is the latest guest gift list!" This morning alone, our Zhao Mansion has eighty-seven guests to visit to celebrate, all of them are dignitaries, giants and wealthy families, and more than 300 people although they did not come to congratulate in person, but also sent valuable gifts to the house, the people in the account room roughly calculated, but all the congratulatory gifts this morning were added together, and the total value was as high as more than 200,000 taels of silver! ”

After speaking, the servant of the Zhao Mansion presented the gift list to Fang Ru.

After Fang Ru took the gift list, he lowered his head and looked at it, and suddenly couldn't help but sigh lightly.

"Sister, what's wrong?" Zhang Yuer asked curiously.

Fang Ru handed the gift list to Zhang Yuer and asked Zhang Yuer to read it herself.

Zhang Yuer looked over, but saw that the name at the top of the gift list was actually the crown prince Zhu and Yu!
