Chapter 013: Entering the palace as a eunuch
After Wang Zhen came in, he did not salute Qi Le, but directly told Qi Le about Zhang Wuxian being arrested and taken to the prison of the Criminal Department. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Qi Le said with a confused expression, "When did I order General Qiu to be hunted down?"
Wang Zhen looked at Qi Le, as if he wanted to speak and stopped. Qi Le said: "There is no one else here, you just say it." ”
He approached Qi Le and whispered, "Your Majesty, it is the order of the Queen Mother." ”
This news undoubtedly shocked Qi Le, and Qi Le hurriedly asked: "Didn't the Queen Mother stop listening to politics three years ago......?
The two of you, you look at me, I look at you, it seems that at the same time I have seen through the mystery of the matter, Qi Le sighed, and said: "Alas, it seems that the Queen Mother is going to make a comeback, pass on my order, and put the punishment department in plain clothes!"
Wang Zhen said: "Your Majesty, the night is dark, you will make a holy decree and ask the old slave to take you to invite Zhang Gongzi over." "Wang Zhen didn't want the emperor to have too much contact with Zhang Wuxian, after all, when there was no Zhang Wuxian, the emperor favored Wang Zhen alone, but now it's different.
Qi Le squinted his deep eyes and said: "I want to see how many taels that uninjured Zhang is, and he can actually give me some Jingzhao Mansion, and he really has some great wisdom, if this person can be used by me, then even if the Queen Mother has the ability to reach the sky, I Qi Le will not be afraid anymore." ”
The emperor traveled, he sat in a sedan chair, there were a total of 30 masters before and after, among which there were many eunuchs like Wang Zhen, although they were eunuchs, but Wang Zhen's kung fu was not comparable to these masters, at most they could only look at it.
In particular, Wang Zhen's orchid brushing acupoint hand has the power to destroy the ancient era.
After arriving at the prison of the Criminal Department, Qi Le specially did not let the eunuch report, the purpose was to see if this injury-free card had the quality of becoming inflammatory. Because the guard was only a small Congliupin official, and Qi Le went out in casual clothes, the guard naturally did not recognize Qi Le's identity.
After Qi Le arrived at the prison center, he saw the guard official lying on the recliner gracefully, humming a little song, Qi Le also laughed and said: "Liu Jingsheng, ordinary life is so nourishing" The jailer who followed Qi Le just wanted to remind Liu Jingsheng that the man in front of him was Long Live Lord, but Wang Zhen stopped him.
Liu Jingsheng opened one eye and said lazily: "Where did Diao Min come from, not only trespassing into the prison of the Criminal Department, but also calling the official by his name, do you know me?"
Without waiting for Qi Le to speak, Liu Jingsheng paused again and said: "It's not unusual to know me, this official is famous all over the world, plus this official is the nephew of the current emperor, and there are many people who confess to me." ”
Qi Le said: "Liu Jingsheng, I don't have time to play poor with you here, I want to see Zhang Wuhurt a few of them." ”
Liu Jingsheng stood up and said with a very helpless look: "Brother, it's very difficult for me to do it, it's already disrespectful for you to call the name of this official, and you even want to save Zhang Wushu and a few of them, but a few of them were specially arrested by Yongle Ye." ”
Liu Jingsheng looked at the jailer behind Qi Le and said loudly, "Ma Wu, what are you doing standing there with their bunch of people? Ma Wu was stunned by Wang Zhen, so he had to keep shaking his head.
Liu Jingsheng said: "If you don't come, you won't come, by the way, who is behind you who is holding you?"
Ma Wugang wanted to move, but Wang Zhen behind him stopped him, walked out by himself, and said with a smile: "Lord Liu, let's not come unharmed." ”
Although Liu Jingsheng has never seen the emperor, he has seen Wang Zhen, and almost all civil and military officials know Wang Zhen, of course, except for one person who hates and abandons being friends with Wang Zhen, that person is Qiu Gan.
Liu Jingsheng rubbed his eyes, hurriedly ran to Wang Zhen, and asked warmly: "In the middle of the night, why does Lord Wang have time to come to me? ”
Qi Le sighed in his heart, I don't know how many officials are like this, if all officials can be as loyal and patriotic as Qiugan, I will be at ease.
Wang Zhen said: "Lord Liu, miscellaneous... I wouldn't come to this kind of place if I have nothing to do, and besides, this place is full of miasma, so what's the good thing? But today I'm here to do something with the Long Live Lord, even if it's the Longtan Tiger's Den, I have to come. "Wang Zhen has always liked to call himself a miscellaneous family, but he can't make a mistake in front of Long Live Lord.
Liu Jingsheng looked outside and said, "Where is the emperor? If I, Liu Jingsheng, can see the dragon's face in this life, I will be satisfied even if I die." Where?"
Wang Zhen walked up to Qi Le, bowed and said, "Your Majesty, the old slave thinks that Lord Liu's proposal is good. This sentence is equivalent to telling Liu Jingsheng that Qi Le is the emperor.
Liu Jingsheng's mind turned, he hurriedly knelt on the ground, kowtowed vigorously, and soon his head was bleeding, and his mouth kept shouting: "The emperor spares his life, the emperor spares his life, it is because I have eyes and do not know Mount Tai, it is me who is despicable and shameless, please let the emperor save my life for the sake of me working so hard in prison." ”
Qi Le said: "Didn't you say that I am your own uncle? Come on, drag this traitor out to me! Ma Wu, I see that you have some brains and some current affairs, so you can take Liu Jingsheng's place." ”
When Ma Wu heard this, his heart suddenly blossomed, and he hurriedly knelt down and thanked: "Thank you, Lord Longen, thank you, Lord Longen! By the way, the emperor, let the minister lead the emperor to find Zhang Wuxian and them." ”
As soon as Qi Le wanted to leave, Wang Zhen stopped Qi Le and said, "Your Majesty, the old slave thinks that this Liu Jingsheng can't be killed yet." ”
"What? Could it be that you still want to intercede for him?"
"The old slave didn't dare, but Liu Jingsheng just said that Zhang Wuxian and a few of them were specially arrested by King Yongle, and King Yongle was from the Queen Mother's side, you said that the Queen Mother chased Qiu Gan and King Yongle detained Zhang Wuxian, is there any connection, so, Liu Jingsheng must know a lot of news that we don't know. ”
Qi Le said: "Wang Zhen, what you said makes sense, I almost destroyed an important chess piece with my own hands, and the Zongren Mansion is also in charge of the Queen Mother's people, so I will escort Liu Jingsheng to Dongchang, you are responsible for this matter, and I will have the answer tomorrow." ”
"The old slave commands. ”
Immediately, under the leadership of Ma Wu, the two came to the prison where Zhang Wuxian and his party were locked up. In prison, the three of them were discussing something. Shangguan Jin believes that this is all because he was framed by Qiu Gan, but Zhuge Jin has always vetoed it. The two continued to argue, Zhang Wuxian looked at Qiu Gan and Qi Le outside the fence, and then looked at the two who were still arguing, and said, "Shangguan girl, Zhuge Gongzi." Stop, you two, for justice is coming. ”
Zhang Wuxian smiled, then knelt on the ground and said: "Zhang Wuxian, the son of Zhang Buqian, greets my emperor, long live my emperor, long live, long live!" Shangguan Jin and Ah Jin hurriedly knelt down when they saw it.
Qi Le secretly praised Zhang Wuxian's ingenuity in his heart, and said, "Hurry up, please get up, before I say anything, you have already guessed my identity, and you really have some brains." ”
Zhang Wuxian smiled: "The emperor is too humble, the minister is confused about something, and I want to ask the pope, I wonder if the emperor is free?"
Qi Le said: "This place is full of smoke and miasma, if you don't mind, I want to invite my son to my palace for a while." ”
"Then I'd be respectful and obey. ”
On the way back to the palace, a crescent moon crosses the delicate corner tower, casting a hazy yellow light on the high walls, and the Forbidden City looks mysterious and quiet.
From afar, the crimson palaces looked like they were embedded in the snow. The palace is nestled in the trees, revealing glazed tile roofs, just like a golden island. This place gives people a feeling of being unapproachable.
The golden glazed tiles shine brightly in the sun. Under the clear blue sky, the golden glazed tile heavy eaves of the Forbidden City looks particularly brilliant.
Qi Le has always accompanied Zhang Wuxian on foot, did not sit in a sedan chair, and said, "How is it?" Zhang Gongzi, you haven't seen the scenery of Ouchi yet, right?"
Zhang Wuxian sneered: "The sunset is infinitely good, it's just near dusk!"
Wang Zhen glanced at Zhang Wuxian and said, "Zhang Gongzi, what do you mean by this, do you think that my Daqi has no national luck?"
Zhang Wuxian said: "Governor Wang is surprised by this, any good thing will definitely wither one day, I just told the truth." ”
"You ......"
Wang Zhen knew that there was nothing good to eat in front of Qi Le, so he changed his words and said: "I can't see that Zhang Gongzi's words are amazing, and he can do it easily, why don't you get some fame?" When Wang Zhen said this, he looked at Qi Le and saw how Qi Le reacted.
Qi Le said: "Prince, everyone has their own ambitions, and Zhang Gongzi's ambition is far from here. ”
Zhang Wuxian smiled, and a few people came to Qi Le's south study with a smile, it was already midnight at this time, Wang Zhen said: "Your Majesty, the old slave suggests that you go to bed first, and there is something to discuss tomorrow." ”
Qi Le said: "Father-in-law, I have no lack of intentions, and today Zhang Gongzi has something to ask for, I should listen to it before sleeping, Wang Zhen, you go back to the room first." ”
Wang Zhen made a salute to Qi Le, bowed and retreated, and when he arrived at the door, he whispered to the eunuch guarding the door: "Remember what they said for me, and tell me tomorrow." ”
After seeing Wang Zhen leave, Qi Le said: "Zhang Gongzi, if there is any problem, you can say anything, as long as I know, I will definitely know everything." ”
Zhang Wushu made a gesture and said: "Thanks to the emperor for believing in me, if he has the opportunity in the future, he will repay the grace of today's acquaintance." ”
"Yes! I'm waiting for you. ”
Immediately, Zhang Wuxian sat down and told Qi Le about the matter of the bachelor's mansion, Qi Le was taken aback and said, "What, the university scholar was lost?"
Zhang Wushu nodded and said, "I originally thought that the emperor might know about this matter, but now that the emperor seems to be ignorant of it, it is strange." I wonder if you can ask the emperor to let us stay in the palace?"
"In the whole world, there are only a handful of people who dare to move scholars. In this way, I will send Wang Zhen to help you investigate this matter thoroughly, and tomorrow morning I will also knock on the side to inquire, if you want to live in the palace, you must have an identity, so let's ask Xiao Shunzi to arrange a fake identity for you in the worship room of the harem, you can investigate the matter without being restricted by anyone. ”
Zhang Wuxian and the three of them knelt on the ground and kept thanking them.
