Hide And Cultivate In The East Palace, Only To Find The Prince Is A Girl

Crown Prince. With him backing him up, he was still a county captain and Chen Youcai’s remaining team. Although Chen Youcai did not ask his remaining team to help, they were still from the same faction. If Ma Ping’ an’s methods were good, these people would naturally be used by him. Shangjing government still had Chen Youcai’s protection. If it really involved factional disputes and issues of right and wrong, Even if Chen Youcai did not like him, he would still stand up. This was a matter of principle.

If the crown prince’s faction fell, everyone below would suffer.

Under such circumstances, he was still unable to open up the situation and was even being manipulated by others. Even his subordinates dared to disobey him and not take him seriously. It was a waste of resources. How could the Crown Prince think highly of him?

If he hadn’t come from the Eastern Palace, he would have given up long ago!

He deduced that Zheng Fugui was looking for him.

“Why do you want to see him?” she asked.”

Zheng Fugui said,” When I was engaged to Sister Mi, he came over to give me a gift. Now that he’s injured, it’s reasonable for him to go and take a look and return this gift.””

After a pause, he asked again.

“Cousin, are you going?”

Zhang Ronghua thought of the man in black. Last night, when he was interrogated, he said that he had killed a county captain. Later, he changed his words and said that he might still be alive. At that time, he didn’t think much about it. Now that he looked at it, it should be Ma Ping ‘an.

“Forget it! On account of their past relationship, it was good to go over and take a look.”

He looked at Ding Yi. “You go back first.”

“Brother, be safe!”

After boarding the Changping carriage, Uncle Ding drove away.

“Let’s go!” Zhang Ronghua shouted.

He changed directions and rushed towards Ma Ping ‘an’s mansion. On the way, he bought some gifts.

“Cousin, are you free recently?” asked Zheng Fugui.”

“I have something to say!”

“The day after tomorrow, I’ll be taking a break. I’ll hold a banquet at home and want to invite you to drink.”

Zhang Ronghua smiled knowingly and patted him on the shoulder twice. “Your luck is pretty good. When it was time to go, you just asked Lu Junxiu to help you apply for two days of leave.”

“Then you must come over at noon the day after tomorrow.”

“Yes.” Zhang Ronghua agreed.

He stopped outside the Ma Manor and looked at the manor in front of him. It had two entrances and two exits. It could not be considered luxurious and could only be considered ordinary. It was barely a place to settle down in the capital.

The entrance was deserted, without a single guard.

Zheng Fugui knocked on the door and shouted,””County Officer Ma is at home?”

No one answered.

He turned around and pointed at the wall.”

Zhang Ronghua shook his head. He could sense a mature young woman in a green dress walking over from the backyard.”He’s already here.”

Zheng Fugui nodded and continued to wait. After a while, a voice like that of an oriole came from behind the courtyard door. It was very soft and pleasant to hear. “Who’s outside?”

“The Eastern Palace’s Rong Guards, Zheng Fugui, and the Grand Scholar Zhang Ronghua are here to visit!”

Ning Niang was still on her guard. She didn’t believe Zheng Fugui’s words. She leaned on the door and looked through the gap. When she saw Zheng Fugui and Zhang Ronghua, she felt relieved. She pulled the door bolt out and opened the courtyard door. With an apologetic expression, she placed her right hand on her left hand and bowed to Zheng Fugui.”Sorry for making you two wait!” He moved aside and waited for them to enter before closing the courtyard door.

Under her lead, the two of them walked towards the backyard.

Along the way, he only saw two servant girls and no one else. It seemed that Ma Ping ‘an’s life had been very difficult when he was transferred out of the Eastern Palace and worked in the county government. Otherwise, his family would not be in such a state.

He entered the bedroom.

The room was filled with a strong medicinal smell. It was bitter, unpleasant, and pungent.

Ning Niang said,”Please take a seat. I’ll pour you some tea.”‘

He heard movement.

Ma Ping ‘an slowly woke up. His upper body was bare and bandaged. There was a strong smell of medicine inside, and his face was pale without a trace of blood. His breathing was weak, and even his breathing was panting. He smiled bitterly and said with difficulty, “I didn’t expect you to come.”

As she spoke, she frowned in pain. She tried her best to hold it in and did not cry out.

Zhang Ronghua glanced at him and knew that although the poison had been removed, it had invaded his meridians before this and had already injured his origin. It made it difficult for him to even move, let alone sit. In addition to the fatal injuries on his body, some parts of his meridians had been pierced by the butterfly dart. Although he was rescued, he was afraid that he would not be able to last long. He said,”After all, we’re colleagues. We have to come and visit. ”

At this moment, Ning Niang was holding a tray with two cups of tea on it. The taste was average and the tea was muddy. They were just ordinary tea leaves. She placed the tray on the table and brought a chair over.”Sirs, please take a seat!”

Then, he handed the teacup over and tactfully retreated.

Ma Ping ‘an was too ashamed to face anyone. He was once a colleague and had witnessed their rise to prominence. One was the Eastern Palace’s Rong Guard’s Tooth General, who was nominally a deputy but was actually in charge of the

Flood Dragon Guards and the Crown Prince’s personal guards. One was a Rank-4 official, a Grand Scholar of the Hall of Scholars, who was in charge of important departments like the Hall of Scholars. As for himself, although he had been transferred to the Eastern City County Office, he had still been promoted. However, he was in such a miserable state that he could not even bring out decent tea leaves and could only serve ordinary tea to guests.

Zheng Fugui was fine, but Zhang Ronghua was different. He knew that with the latter’s status, even if the tea he drank was not spiritual tea, it was at least top-grade tea leaves. It was far from ordinary tea leaves that cost two taels of silver per catty. He advised, “This tea is average and has a strong flavor. Don’t drink it.. “
