Zhou Bingchen was not depressed when he left. Although the imperial concubine did not agree to him, he did not refuse at all. Zhou Bingchen knew it in his mind. If he really agreed to it, it would be strange. There were three little masters in Yong'an Palace, not to mention that the emperor would come here almost every day, whether to visit the three little masters or to see the imperial concubine, he would basically stay in Yong'an Palace and would not go back to Changning Hall in front of him. In this way, the access to Yong'an Palace is no less than that in Changning Hall where the central government is located. Even those palace ladies and eunuchs who do rough work look very different from others.

Therefore, it is not easy for Yong'an Palace to join a person. It is indeed not a decisive concubine who can make the final decision by himself. Zhou Bingchen has been in Houyuan for ten years, and he will not expect to be promoted for another ten or twenty years. But Eunuch Zhou is self-conceived that he is young and strong and never wants to retire now. Besides, Houyuan is not suitable for retirement. Those young people are worried about causing trouble every day. Zhou Bingchen wants to change places too much. When he reaches his position, he can only go up and not retreat. Besides, he has made a good relationship with the imperial concubine back then. It is better to use him than to use a completely stranger.

This is Zhou Bingchen's biggest advantage, and the imperial concubine also understands this.

Zhou Bingchen entered the house and sat down. His apprentice Zhou Yuhai handed over the tea. He was very eye-catching and did not inquire about the results of the master's trip. This apprentice was not surnamed Zhou, but Zhang. After he became a master, he changed his surname to Zhou. Zhou Bingchen later changed his name. He was very careful. Although he was not particularly clever, Zhou Bingchen thought it was too clever because of some of his early experiences. So after the first apprentice disappeared, he accepted Zhou Yuhai, who was only twelve years old at the time. Although Zhou Yuhai was not very clever, he was very sensible and willing to work. With him in Zhou Bingchen, he would be much more worry-free.

"Is there anything wrong with me after I go out?"

"There are a few things." Zhou Yuhai simply read a few words, and was afraid that he would forget things, so he wrote them down. The words were written in a crooked manner, and some were missing their arms and legs, but in the end they would not miss them. If they forget one or half of them and delay the matter, they might offend others.

"Baomingxuan said he wanted to repair the wall, and said that there was a lot of rain in summer and there was a piece of damage to the backyard wall," Zhou Yuhai thought one by one: "My lady Zhou didn't seem to want to live in Wangyun Pavilion anymore. She sent the palace maids to come and ask for it for a while, and it seemed that she wanted to move out and live alone. In addition..."

Zhou Bingchen just didn't want to continue dealing with these people and things for many years in the future, so he couldn't wait to change the place. Houyuan was full of newly selected beauties living in. When they had a high position, they all left one by one. Then, next time, a group of new people would be added, and everything started again.

It's really annoying to deal with these newcomers.

Zhou Yuhai recited the last one: "Tang Cairen came here in person, but didn't say anything. She went back when she heard that the master was not there."

Zhou Bingchen originally squinted his eyes and listened. In fact, Zhou Yuhai could handle all the trivial matters without his orders one by one. But when he heard Tang Cairen, his eyes narrowed open.

Tang Cairen was able to make trouble among the group of people who selected the selection and entered the palace. Yang, Zhou Bingchen and Luo Shanggong, who died by Jingtai, both felt that she could not get rid of the matter. It was just that the imperial concubine was pregnant at that time, and the emperor did not seriously investigate the matter.

This time, the emperor promoted another group of concubines in the harem. Three of them were promoted to the throne, but she was not. What did she want to do at this time?

"Let someone keep a close eye on her movements. If she comes again, I will go back and forth immediately."

Zhou Yuhai responded.

However, Tang Cairen did not come again on this day.

Zhou Bingchen left the door again when it was almost dark, but this time he came back very quickly. Zhou Yuhai's mouth was very tight, and he didn't know where the master was going. In short, he was busy with his future to go to the higher ground. But Zhou Yuhai understood at least one thing, and he followed him wherever his master went. You must know that the in-house affairs in Houyuan are not small, and the master saved a lot of money. Zhou Yuhai could also get filial piety and rewards when running errands and passing messages by himself. He wanted to respect the master, but the master asked him to save these things. It was a pity that he gave up such a fat man. Besides, it was already quite decent. After going to a new place to start from scratch, he might not be able to live more comfortably than now.

But Zhou Yuhai knew at least one thing: only if he had a master, he would have to be swallowed by others in three days.

When the master came back, Zhou Yuhai hurriedly went up to serve him to change his clothes and then brought in hot water. In the palace, the little eunuchs served the big eunuch like this, and it was natural to serve the master as an apprentice.

Zhou Bingchen covered his hand towel on his face for a while, then wiped it hard twice before taking off his shoes and socks to wash his feet.

"Yuhai."

Zhou Yuhai squatted there to serve him to wash his feet and responded in a suffocating voice.

"I'm leaving these two days. What are your plans?"

Zhou Bingchen thought that it was normal for Zhou Yuhai to be reluctant to leave Jiye here and not want to go with him. Zhou Bingchen would never force him. It is important to know that the forced melon is not sweet. It will take some time for him to gain a foothold when he arrives at Yong'an Palace. There are so many people staring at him, so he must carefully hold his tail at the beginning. If Zhou Yuhai wants to stay, he will also give him some convenience and arrange another one for him in the end.

Zhou Yuhai did not hesitate at all: "Of course I have to follow the master."

Zhou Bingchen smiled and said, "The life will not be so leisurely and comfortable by then."

Zhou Yuhai also smiled and said nothing. After wiping his feet for the master, he went out to pour the water. He washed himself and came back to put the door.

Because he asked Zhou Bingchen for his blessing, he did not have to go to the shop in the lower room with other eunuchs. There was always a scent of stuffy smell in the house. The eunuchs were cut and their bodies were not clean, and there were more and more people in the lower room. Anyone who could make a fortune would be eager to leave the shop and find another place to live.

Zhou Bingchen had already lay down and told him through the wall: "Get up early tomorrow to pack up. If things go well, we will not live in this room tomorrow night."

Zhou Yuhai responded again in a depressed voice.

The master and apprentice had nothing to say, but another pair of eunuchs with more powerful eunuchs were still talking under the lamp.

When the emperor entered Yong'an Palace, Bai Hongqi was fine. He checked the procedures for issuing the enthronement tomorrow and the number of people who should be busy. After sending away Zhou Bingchen who had come quietly, Xiao Ye also entered the house.

"Did the master answer what he asked for?"

In contrast to the disciples accepted by Zhou Bingchen, the two disciples accepted by Bai Hongqi are both like thief spirits. They will definitely not understand them if they are with stupid people. Even if they are told thoroughly, they may not be able to understand them. Moreover, if they do things, they may move and say less, they may run into the ditch.

Xiao Ye is a clever person. With such a capable arm, Bai Hongqi really saved a lot of trouble. As Zhou Bingchen went around, Xiao Ye guessed his purpose. In fact, this time it was not that he was particularly clever, but that he was not the only one who wanted to go to Bai Hongqi's path. Everyone was willing to take out most of his wealth to impress Bai Hongqi. Who doesn't know that the Imperial Concubine is at its peak now? Who doesn't want to board the big ship of Yong'an Palace? Bai Hongqi, the chief manager, can't compare with them, but the Imperial Concubine is also a good place to go. To be bold, maybe in two years, the Imperial Concubine can still rise. At that time, the people around her will definitely be these people, but the status is very different from now.

Therefore, Zhou Bingchen is not too eye-catching among these people.

"He had already run to the imperial concubine to blow himself up, and said that although the imperial concubine did not respond to him, she did not refuse him at all."

Xiao Ye immediately understood. Zhou Bingchen is really cunning. He and the imperial concubine were familiar with each other in the Houyuan for three years, and they also had a little bit of incense. I heard that when the imperial concubine had not yet been favored, he was quite generous to others. Since he had gone to the imperial concubine to recommend himself, if the master recommended someone else, even if the imperial concubine agreed, would he feel awkward to the master when he looked at a stranger? He felt that his master was stretching his hands too long and acting too arrogant?

Since everyone responded, Zhou Bingchen must have not come empty-handed just now, so it would be better to be a favor and make a good fortune in Yong'an Palace.

Bai Hongqi picked up the tea and took a sip. Xiao Ye hurried forward: "Master, don't drink this tea. Be careful not to sleep well at night. Let's change you to a cup of white water."

"No, don't drink anymore. There's nothing wrong with it anyway. I'll take a break early later and I'll have to be busy all day tomorrow."

As he was talking, someone asked outside the door: "Have you stopped?"

Bai Hongqi raised his voice slightly and said, "I haven't slept yet, come in."

The other disciple Meng Quanfu came in. When he saw Xiao Ye also in the room, he smiled and said, "Brother Ye is here too?" He stepped forward and bowed to Bai Hongqi, stood aside with his hands down and said without saying a word.

Xiao Ye was reluctant, but he stood up and said, "Master, I'll go outside and check out the portal."

When he got out, Meng Quanfu came to Bai Hongqi's ear and whispered a few words.

Bai Hongqi frowned: "When did this happen?"

"Just yesterday. However, Xia Yue said that Fang Shanggong went to the needle office and did not make any statement after he came back. I wonder if he had already thought of a countermeasure."

Xiaoye left without obediently after going out. He even stuck to the door to hear what Meng Quanfu was saying on his back, but the boy's voice was so small that he could not hear anything. He had to give up and took a lantern to patrol the portal in disappointment.

Bai Hongqi in the room had already confirmed this matter.

"There must be a countermeasure. How could Fang Shanggong go out if he has nothing to do? He is still busy at Yong'an Palace. The needle factory should have a backup plan for making such things. Eighty-year-olds are taking the extra spare one to top up. What about that one broken one?"

"Xia Yue said it was in Fang Shanggong's hands." Meng Quanfu took out a thin piece of cotton paper from his arms, which was often used by women to draw flowers. Although Xia Yue could not take out the broken auspicious clothes, she drew the broken appearance on the paper.
