Chapter 8: Tired
Night slowly falls, and the starlight fills into the imperial study.
Wang Siying has been waiting in the outer hall for three hours, and he has been worried for three hours, like sitting on pins and needles, the people in front of him go in, and come out with different expressions, some are happy to leave, some are carried out, the worst is Hu Hanbin, there is a fierce quarrel in the inner hall, and after a while, the editor of the Hanlin Academy was helped out, with a bloody face, and he was extremely embarrassed.
I don't know what happened in the inner hall, Wang Siying exhaled a long breath of white air, and took a sharp breath, loosened his hands that were tightly clenched and his knuckles were white, and wiped the sweat on his brows.
The future and fate made another move, he didn't want to be nervous, but he couldn't suppress the trembling all over his body.
After Hu Hanbin was helped away, the door of the inner hall was slammed shut, and he swallowed hard, resisting the urge to look up and wait, waiting for the call of fate.
I don't know how long it took, the door of the inner hall was pushed open, someone walked quickly in front of Wang Siying, and the head of the cell in the east of the city stood up abruptly and straightened his clothes.
"Lord Wang, Your Majesty is tired, you can go back first. The little eunuch who came out spoke.
Wang Siying's arm hovered in the air, his face stiffened, he came to his senses for a while, suppressed the whimper in his voice, bowed to the inner hall, and muttered to himself in despair...... First...... Retired first. ”
But his legs seemed to be stuck on the ground, and he didn't move.
The little eunuch looked at Wang Siying's reluctant expression, and suddenly felt funny, Your Majesty is tired and wants to rest, is it possible to drag the tired Holy Body, and summon your little cell boss: "Lord Wang, go back, Your Majesty will summon you when he remembers it one day." ”
When do you think about it? One day, two days, or a year, or two years? Or a lifetime?
Out of the imperial study, Wang Siying looked up at the starry sky, was blown by the cold wind, cold all over the body, walking on the royal road of the palace, the empty and majestic palace was brightly lit, like a magnificent picture slowly unfolded in front of him, he walked carefully every step, looked at the scenery that could be seen, engraved in his mind, because maybe this is the peak of his life.
In the imperial study, the little eunuch Yu Qing was sorting out the chapters, and the three words Wang Siying on the roster were drawn with a big cross: "Your Majesty really doesn't see Wang Siying?"
"No, my mood has been ruined by Hu Shi. As soon as Hu Hanbin left, Li Yuanhao used "the stones in the pit are smelly and hard" to edit a nickname for the Hanlin Academy.
"Your Majesty, you have a golden mouth, you must be cautious in your exports, and if you don't want someone to grandstand, you will use your nickname to show off your power outside. ”
"Other people maybe, Hu Hanbin won't, he can't imagine that this stone is lying on that is a show of martial arts, where do you need me. Li Yuanhao stood up, looked at Yu Qing with interest, and knocked on the door of his head: "I haven't seen you for a few years, but you have taught me a lesson, don't forget, the name of the first little eunuch in front of your emperor is still from me." ”
"That's different! The minion lives up to its name. Yu Qing retorted: "Your Majesty doesn't like Hu Hanbin on the surface, but the slave knows that His Majesty does not dislike him in his heart, but appreciates him a lot, why is he so disgusted with this trembling Wang Siying? ”
"It's not that I don't like him, but I hate his speculation and gloom, the first time I saw Wang Siying, you were also there, he deceived others by looking at palmistry. To tell the truth, it is understandable for a person to do something deceitful and abductive for his livelihood, and I will not criticize him, but for a scholar who wants to stand in the court and take the rise and fall of the world as his own responsibility, I look down on him. Li Yuanhao walked to the window and happened to be able to see Wang Siying's lost figure.
"Yu Qing, court battles, deceit, all dynasties and dynasties can't avoid it, as long as there is power, there will always be places that can't see the light, and I can't change it. In the final analysis, I am the center of power and the ultimate decision-maker, how can a center of power wipe itself out? This is not scientific. Speaking of this, Li Yuanhao suddenly smiled and shook his head, this is like Chen Luoyan's style, pretending to be profound.
"Since it can't be changed, but it can't be left unchecked, I can make this kind of battle as bright as possible, the battle in front of the public will not be so bloody and dark, and it can abide by a certain bottom line, which is precious to a court, Su Shangshu and Suo scholars often quarrel, but they don't hold grudges, which is very good. However, Wang Siying is a variable, Mr. Kong said, Wang Siying is a great talent, powerful, if he can enter the court, he will definitely be able to sit in a high position and become a generation of capable ministers, the reason why I dislike him is this, a gloomy person who can fly to the top if he is given a little chance, I am afraid that one day I will not be able to suppress him, and he will lead the entire court to an irreparable civil strife. ”
"Oh. Yu Qing nodded, scratching his head innocently: "Your Majesty thinks so far that a slave can't even think of it if he wants to break his head." ”
Li Yuanhao walked up to Yu Qing and stared at the little eunuch's eyes: "Yu Qing, I have worked hard for you in the past few years, I know that you have experienced a lot, and I also know that you are no longer the same person you used to be." What about I, don't care about the case of the destruction of the Gongsun family in Shanyang County, and don't care about the relationship between you and the little palace maid Xuan'er, I only ask you one thing, did Uncle Zhao say the following words, Yu Qing, in the future, you will always be an innocent and stupid little eunuch in front of Your Majesty, and in front of outsiders, you are the new royal cat who kills people without blinking?"
The little eunuch's eyes were slightly red, and he shook his head: "It's not Daddy who said it, it was the Empress Dowager's ancestor who instructed the slaves, and the ancestor also said, what Your Majesty wants to do but can't do, you Yu Qing wants to do, and if Your Majesty wants to kill but can't kill people, you Yu Qing wants to kill." ”
Li Yuanhao was slightly stunned, and reached out to knock on Yu Qing's head, but the moment she went down turned into a stroke, she couldn't help but let out a long sigh: "Hey, you made Uncle Zhao a murderer without blinking, and now you want to harm Yu Qing, grandma, you are so powerful." For me to sit firmly on the throne, for the sake of the Li family, how many wrongs have you taken on yourself. ”
After being silent for a moment, Li Yuanhao suddenly turned his head: "Forget it, let Wang Siying come in, I will give him a bright future, and I won't let my grandmother owe him the favor of sending a letter to the Zhennan Army." ”
"Lord Wang, Lord Wang, please slow down. The little eunuch caught up with Wang Siying panting, his hands on his knees panting, and his words were intermittent: "Your Majesty...... Your Majesty...... Your Majesty, let you go to the Imperial Study, and I will discuss something with you. ”
Wang Siying was stunned on the spot, reached out to wipe the tears and snot on his face, ran towards the imperial study in a panic, accidentally stepped on the front hem of his shirt, and fell a dog eating.
