Chapter 908 Just know how to eat

7days ago Historical fiction 7
Cao Fu served in Rouyi Hall for a whole morning, and when the imperial chef brought lunch, he took care of the palace people to try and serve the dishes.After lunch, the emperor took a nap, and Cao Fu went to the back hall to have dinner by himself.

After a while, his godfather Wang Gui suddenly walked in alone.Cao Fu hurriedly put down his bowls and chopsticks and stepped forward to greet him and ask him about his well-being.

Wang Gui stretched out his hand from his sleeve and waved it gently. The two little eunuchs in the corridor quickly retreated.

Cao Fu stepped forward and bowed, and said in a deep voice: Report to Godfather, Yin Qing’s affairs are done.

Wang Gui nodded and said: When he comes back, he gets the money, so you can leave some for yourself.

Cao Fu said: Thank you for your godfather’s reward, but it’s useless for your son to get the money.He hesitated for a moment and said, "My son always feels that the emperor can guess this kind of thing, and the emperor understands everything."

Wang Gui replied, "You are right, of course the emperor understands, but don't be afraid."We know that some money can be taken, but some money cannot be taken.

Cao Fu asked: My son is too talkative, what is the godfather doing with so much money?

Wang Gui glanced at him: The most dangerous days have passed, when will I enjoy it now?

Cao Fu didn't say anything, he didn't understand very much.

As a eunuch, there is nothing more than eating. What else can you enjoy?

Cao Fu has no interest in women anyway. He likes to eat the most, but the imperial chef has nothing to lack, so he is already very satisfied.

The evidence is that the more you get fatter you get in the past few years.

He did not agree with his godfather, and he really planned to persuade him, so he thought about it and then let it go.

It’s nothing if Yin Qing’s money is collected, after all, there are many eunuchs who respect their father and father.

Cao Fu thought the hottest thing was Huang Taiping’s money back then.

Huang Taiping is the godson of Huang Yan, the traitor who was extremely guilty. A few years ago, this person was handed over by King Zhao and became a scapegoat.

Later, after a person interrogated him, he found that Huang Taiping was a useless stick, so he threw it to Fengyang.

As a result, Wang Gui also took out Huang Taiping and sent it back to the Zhao Mansion to continue serving.Afterwards, Wang Gui took the initiative to tell the emperor; fortunately, the emperor turned a blind eye to his loyalty for many years of loyal service.

Cao Fu was silent for a while, and then said in a low voice: By the way, Meng Ji did not mention Wang Jinghong at all in front of the emperor today, but just talked about Liu Ming.He brought Queen Zhenla back and found his son first.My son looked at him. Although he was with Zheng He and his group of people in the past, he was no longer the same as Wang Jinghong and wanted to get close to us.

Wang Gui immediately said: Who do you care about who he wants to get close to?

Cao Fu was stunned for a moment: Meng Ji went to the Sili Supervisor to serve as the Young Supervisor and did several errands, which made the emperor very satisfied.Wang Jinghong and Hou Xian were in charge of the navy, but they were surrounded by the crowd and were in full swing.

Wang Gui frowned and looked at Cao Fu, without saying a word for a moment. Then he walked to the stool where Cao Fu had just eaten and sat down there.Cao Fu hurriedly bowed forward.

Good fortune, you can be more courageous if you are greedy for some money and courage.But power cannot be greedy, power is a knife with blood.Wang Gui said earnestly, "Our family asks you, if you want to talk about your status and power in the palace, how is Wang Jinghong compared to Zheng He?"

Cao Fu hurriedly said: I'm afraid it's a lot worse.

Wang Gui said: Then what happened to Zheng He?

Dead.Cao Fu answered honestly.

Wang Gui said: It's gone in one sentence, it's not the emperor's words or the Queen Zhang's words; so, what can Wang Jinghong do?We have been with the Emperor for many years. At that time, the Emperor was still the Prince of Gaoyang. Can Wang Jinghong be more reliable than us in front of the Emperor?

Cao Fu thought deeply and nodded.

Wang Gui's voice said again: Don't make trouble.When the emperor ascended the throne, Huang Yan sent someone to join us, but we ignored him. If Wang Jinghong was sensible, he should understand our attitude and appreciate this love.Everyone serves the emperor with peace of mind, and life is easy.

Cao Fu bent down and said: My son must remember his godfather’s teachings.

Wang Gui stood up, reached out and patted Cao Fu's shoulder twice, and our family returned to Wuying Palace.

Cao Fu said: Godfather, let me go slowly, my son will see you off.

Wang Gui looked at the food on the table and said kindly: Have a good meal.You know how to eat.

Cao Fu whispered: My son, please be careful to find a few women for his godfather.

Wang Gui smiled and said: You don’t need you, we only like Sister Kiln.Those who are humble in their identities will also be able to live, but they will not forget their surname.Otherwise, what would she want to do with our family?That would be a big trouble.

Cao Fu still insisted on sending his godfather out and then continued to do his own thing.

Today, because of the eunuch Yin Qing’s incident, Cao Fu remembered the irrelevant Huang Taiping.Unexpectedly, a few days later, he really met Huang Taiping.Is this an example of what you want to come true?

Cao Fu heard the report from the eunuch guarding Xi'an Gate, saying that a eunuch named Huang Taiping asked to see him.Cao Fu rushed to Xi'an Gate and saw Huang Taiping.This man was mysterious and claimed to borrow a piece to speak.

Let's talk in it.Cao Fu led him into a office of the Xi'an Access Guard, stepped back and asked Huang Taiping to talk about it.

Huang Taiping then took out a bamboo tube and said: His Highness Zhao personally sent us to send something to Beijing, and he would personally give it to Eunuch Wang or Eunuch Cao.The eunuchs from Xi'an Gate said that Eunuch Wang was busy, so our family asked someone to inform Eunuch Cao.

Cao Fu took the bamboo tube, what is inside?

I don’t know, the opening was closed, and our family didn’t see it.Huang Taiping said.

Cao Fu flipped the things up and down, and saw that the bamboo tube was wrapped in paper, and there was indeed a seal and a painted seal on the opening.

Because Huang Taiping said it was for Cao Fu, Cao Fu tore the seal straight and took out the things inside to see.

While looking at the words on the paper, Cao Fu also looked up at Huang Taiping.Huang Taiping said flatteringly: Thanks to Eunuch Wang last time, I wonder if my little filial piety is enough?

Cao Fu nodded, put away the paper, walked to the door and shouted: Come on!

Huang Taiping stood there with a confused look on his face.

Soon several soldiers came running.Cao Fu immediately pointed at Huang Taiping and said: Take it down.

Huang Taiping said with a sad face: What's wrong?What's wrong!But the soldiers had no choice but to say anything and immediately pressed him to the ground.

Cao Fu said again: I've tied up and sent it to the imperial prison in Hongwu Gate and locked up first.

Huang Taiping hurriedly said: Eunuch Cao, you can’t hurt your own people by chance. What’s wrong with our family?

Cao Fu said with a strange expression: You have been sold by someone, and you are still paying attention to helping people count the money.He paused and stretched out his two fingers to gesture, and twice.Don't worry, there is still room for trouble.

Huang Taiping looked thoughtful, and when he heard the last sentence, he hurriedly said: Eunuch Cao, we still have some things in our house.

Cao Fu said: I understand.

The soldiers found a rope and tied Huang Taiping up all the flowers there.Cao Fu stopped asking, took the bamboo tube and hurriedly walked into the palace.

As usual, the emperor came to Rouyi Hall nearby after the Imperial Gate heard the government.Cao Fu walked into Xihua Gate quickly, crossed the stone bridge on the Yu River, passed Wuying Hall and walked north, and soon arrived at Rouyi Hall.

But seeing Zhu Gaoxu being inside with Qi Tai, the Minister of War, Cao Fu stretched out his head and looked at the door, waiting outside the door.After a while, Zhu Gaoxu called him with his voice, and he hurried in.

Cao Fu put the bamboo tube on the big table and bowed his head to Zhu Gaoxu's ear and said: "Sent by Huang Taiping."

Huang Taiping?Zhu Gaoxu looked thoughtful.

Cao Fu whispered: Huang Yan's godson, later he returned to the Zhao Palace.

Oh... Zhu Gaoxu nodded, poured out all the paper in the bamboo tube and took it to see it.

Cao Fu had read the content before, one was from King Zhao, and the other was from Huang Yan's handwriting and the original secret letter sent back from the Tatar tribe.Cao Fu only read the letter from King Zhao.

In the letter, King Zhao said that the messenger of Urianha (the flower boy) came for the first time and wanted to take out Huang Yan's property in the money house. The chief secretary Gu Sheng had reported to Guo Ang, an official of the Northern Department of the Ministry of Defense; at that time, the eunuch responsible for receiving the messenger of Urianha was Huang Taiping.

Recently, the Urian Ha people came to Zhangde Mansion again. Huang Taiping went to receive it first, but he agreed to help others without authorization, and received a secret letter from the Urian Ha people and 100 taels of gold.

King Zhao was outside the palace at that time. When he came back, he knew that he did not dare to act rashly, for fear of ruining the affairs of the Guardian Department, so he ordered Huang Taiping to bring a secret letter to the capital to apologize.

Please arrest the castration immediately and torture him.

After reading it, Zhu Gaoxu handed the letter to Cao Fudao and asked Qibutang to see it too.

yes.Cao Fu bowed and took it.

Zhu Gaoxu said again: Huang Taiping is really a bad guy. It is not wrong to not kill him at the beginning.

Cao Fu gave the letter to Qi Tai, then turned around, bent down and smiled, "The emperor said, "I came to my door to ask for a arrest. When I saw this letter at Xi'anmen, I almost laughed out loud."King Zhao is really good at having fun.

My third brother is not trying to have fun.Zhu Gaoxu said, he might be very imposing.

Cao Fu didn't understand very much for a moment, so he said: Since King Zhao is loyal to the emperor, he just needs to send the secret letter from the Tatars to the capital.

Zhu Gaoxu said: How did the court know the authenticity of the secret letter?

Cao Fu was stunned for a moment: Why didn’t I expect it!Maybe Huang Yan wrote two true or false letters?

Zhu Gaoxu nodded gently: It is just an objective inference, and this is possible.Although Gao Sui cannot lead troops to fight, he is not a stupid person.After he said that, he continued to read the secret letter Huang Yan wrote from the Tatar tribe.

After a while, Cao Fu, according to Zhu Gaoxu's wishes, also gave Huang Yan's secret letter to Qi Tai.

After seeing this, Qi Tai immediately said: What was Eunuch Cao's expression when he saw Huang Yan? What if I want to capture him?

Cao Fu then expressed Huang Yan's appearance in detail and said it again.

Qi Tai asked: Are you sure he didn't pretend on purpose?

Cao Fu thought for a while and said: I'm afraid it's not pretending.Our family has known him for many years. This person has always been a clever person. How can he pretend to be so similar?

Qi Tai bowed to the superiors and said: Master, please release Huang Taiping immediately and let him return to Zhangde Mansion to report.

Zhu Gaoxu raised his head and said: Then he followed the Qi tribe's plan, Cao Fu, go and pass the order.

Cao Fu hurriedly said: I will obey the order.
