Chapter 570: The Grand Eunuch
In the late spring, in the rainy season, the heavy rain is majestic, splashing in the capital city.
Previously, there was no custom of posting charms in Chukyo. Because there was not much rain in Zhongjing, but I don't know why, in recent years, there has been more and more rain in Zhongjing, and it is getting heavier and heavier. Ordinary people go to the Taoist temple to spend dozens of dollars to buy talismans, and break the wealth to ask for peace of mind. Naturally, the wealthy sect has a way to let the calligrapher draw talismans, and some can even invite the Taoist practitioners to make the talismans themselves, which is even more unusual.
At this time, there was still a small scene before the dawn of the fifth watch, and a man wearing an official uniform in the inner court walked in the deep palace, holding several yellow-bottomed Zhu Dan talismans that were completely different from ordinary charms, and the other hand hung down on his sleeve, carrying an ordinary oil-paper umbrella.
Slowly through the corridor aisle, walking towards the north gate of the palace, the man has white eyebrows, snow-white hair, two strands of long hair like snow hanging in front of the official uniform, the hand holding the charm probe sleeve, at a glance, is just trimmed, such as a woman's fair skin and slender, and if you look closely, there is a wireless red silk on the cuffs like a slender snake twisting its body.
Probably because of the proximity to the lake, after the shower, there was a sound of frogs nearby. There is a more drum room at the north gate and a leaky room, each with a diligent eunuch on duty, this hair is like frost, the old eunuch's footsteps are silent, like a cat walking in the night. There was only one eunuch in the palace who was qualified to wear this robe.
The old eunuch personally pasted the Zhu Dan talisman.
After pasting it, he stood under the door, looking at the charm that came out of the thief bell, the old eunuch's lips moved slightly, and he said three words that no one could hear, "Ghost draw talisman." ”
He looked up at the sky, there was still a heavy rain, but it was a pity that those new red peach blossoms and new green shoots, silently took the umbrella and walked back.
The fourth watch is approaching, close to the carved room, an old eunuch on duty hurriedly took the hour card with gold characters on a blue background and ran to the drum room, along the way the eunuchs of all sizes saw it, regardless of identity, they had to stand sideways to show respect, that is, the eunuchs in the room who had not covered the door saw it, and they should also get up. The eunuch, who is covered in clouds and fog in the eyes of the world, really has too many rules and exquisiteness, and no one can surpass it.
At this time, the old eunuch who went to the drum room to deliver the hour card was originally immersed in the respectful courtesies of all the eunuchs everywhere he went, and when he saw the old condition of the white hair that came from the corner, his hair exploded in an instant, and he didn't dare to stop, but he just bent down and bowed his head, and his big strides became small steps, but he accelerated his pace, so that the speed did not increase but decreased. The white-haired old eunuch slightly sideways his shoulders, and the two eunuchs with vastly different identities passed by, and the old eunuch never dared to breathe.
The fifth watch drum sounded, that is, the dawn broke.
The little eunuch with flexible legs and feet in the carved room rushed to the palace gate to announce that dawn had arrived. Thousands of red lanterns were hung high almost at the same moment, illuminating a palace that was brightly lit and full of life. The old eunuch walked lightly in it, and when the next quarter of an hour came, he just came to the emperor's palace without missing a step, and after entering the house, he always bowed his head, and could only see a pair of yellow and purple boots from the Shang Yi Supervisor, except for the color of the noble, it was no different from the cotton shoes of ordinary families. In the room, there was a man who served the man wearing a yellow dragon robe, and the man listened to the sound of rain outside the window, and laughed gently, "The rain in the valley rains, everything is clean and clear, which is a good sign." ”
The old eunuch bent down, two strands of drooping hair almost touched the cool bluestone slab ground, and said softly: "Your Majesty, there is an immortal mountain that has not succeeded. The news from Daoling said that Nangong Han was nowhere to be found, but Gu Yu seemed to have gone to the camp of the rebels in the White Horse Temple. ”
The man didn't make a sound, the atmosphere in the room was stagnant, and he could only hear the rumbling of the rain outside the window, and after a long time, he smiled and said: "Now Canghai City is calculated by Bi Kongqing and the prostitute, it can't become too big a climate, let the monks carry it first in the White Horse Temple, let's rest first." ”
The old eunuch nodded, and the tips of the snowy hair bent on the floor, picked up the cotton shoes, handed them to the hands of the royal front Jingren, and then retreated a few steps, stood in place, and used the gentle tone unique to eunuchs, but compared to some eunuchs, it was a little more mellow, and said in a low voice: "There is one more thing, I hope Your Majesty will agree." ”
The emperor, who had just taken the cotton shoes and was about to put them on himself, paused, looked up at him and said, "Say it." ”
"I want to rest. Let Le Song come to His Majesty's side and help His Majesty do things. The old eunuch paused, did not look up at the emperor, and said to himself.
"Oh. The Emperor's hand on his shoes also paused, and then with a sigh, he had already put on his shoes.
"Can he?"
"It should work. ”
"It's your apprentice, you can say it's natural, but don't think about being idle, you still have to take care of the affairs in this palace. “
The eunuch of Zhangbaoxi and several eunuchs of not low status were already waiting quietly outside the door, standing in the middle of the corridor, the wind and rain were slanting, the heavy rain slapped the railing, splashed into the corridor, and the upper of the shoe was quickly soaked. These eunuchs were all waiting to follow His Majesty the Emperor to the south, during which they had to walk through a dragon road that symbolized the Great Inner Boundary, and then bypass the two palaces before they reached the palace that participated in today's early dynasty.
But today is clearly not quite what they thought. The old eunuch's subtle but clear voice sounded in the hall, "Come in." ”
These eunuchs, who were almost the highest-ranking eunuchs in all the imperial cities, looked at each other, not knowing what was going on. But he obeyed the old eunuch's words, and walked into the emperor's bedroom in a hurry, but with great caution.
The eunuchs stopped at the doorway, stood in two rows, and bent their waists so low that no one dared to look directly at the man in the yellow robe.
"Lesong. The emperor gently called out a name, and the little eunuch standing at the back answered, and then straightened his waist slightly. But it still didn't look up.
"From today onwards, you will be the chief manager. The Emperor seemed a little tired, and he did not say another word after saying this.
The two rows of eunuchs standing at the door were not shocked by this sentence, because everyone knew that Le Song was the apprentice of the old eunuch, and he had excellent cultivation talents, and he was deeply loved by the queen and His Majesty.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace. Le Song pressed his head very low, completely without the usual high-spirited posture, as if he was humble to the dust, but he was so outstanding in the crowd.
The old eunuch looked at this young man, who was extremely young, but extremely intelligent, and nodded with satisfaction.
The early Han Dynasty followed the old practice, the emperor came in person, except for natural disasters, the severe cold and heat were uninterrupted all day, but for the vast majority of Beijing officials who were not high in rank, it was not how tired, and they only needed to participate in the five-day dynasty. Today's heavy rain, civil and military officials went out with raincoats, at this time wearing raincoats and waiting for the gate to open, because it is a great dynasty, not only the princes and horses and nearly a thousand Beijing officials, many hereditary lords and officials also came to the early dynasty as usual, there are seven or eight hundred people, densely standing in the rain outside the gate of the imperial city, the raindrops the size of soybeans hit the umbrella surface, banging.
Then the gates opened.
The officials found that the person who opened the city gate today was not the little eunuch Le Song, who they knew well in the past, but a different person today. A curious person asked why it wasn't Le Song who came to open the door today, and my eunuch who opened the door replied with a sharp voice: "Manager Le has been promoted to the chief manager today, so he naturally can't do such a trivial matter of opening the door." ”
Everyone was in an uproar, so Le Song should be the youngest chief manager in the history of this big man.
Seven or eight hundred people stood still in the Qinzheng Palace, and when the emperor walked slowly, he found that it was indeed Le Song standing behind him. Only then did everyone feel that the palace without the figure of the old eunuch seemed to have changed a little taste, and no one could say what it smelled like.
