Chapter 3.4
Entering the palace to see the young emperor Wei Li Xin was a very important thing for Ren Jia, so she got up early in the morning and cheered up very energetically, packed up as quickly as possible and followed Liang's father.
Liang Yi after a night of calmness for his daughter's thoughts is not as resistant as yesterday, he sat alone last night and thought about it only to find that he was a little biased in the past, when his daughter was weak and incompetent, he was worried and disappointed, when his mind was deep, he was dissatisfied and hesitant, in fact, it was nothing more than that he never really believed in this daughter in his heart, and the two of them have been getting farther and farther away over the years.
So, on the second day, when he decided to take his daughter to the palace, he was a little more open-minded than before.
Ren Jia habitually followed Liang's father with the hilt of his sword - entering the palace gate, Liang Yi started as the lowestly chamberlain when he entered the palace, so although he couldn't talk about covering the sky with one hand in the forbidden palace, there would be no uninteresting people to come to find bad luck.
Following Liang's father through the carved corridors and paintings, pavilions and pavilions, and when he arrived at the Purple Imperial Palace where the young emperor was dealing with government affairs, the imperial guard guarding the palace gate immediately stopped Ren Jia and his party, with a cold expression and sharp words, "The palace is heavy, and no one is allowed to carry a blade." ”
Ren Jia looked at the tip of the sword that was shining with cold light across her chest, and decisively drew her sword with her backhand, before everyone could react, the tip of her sword had already hit the guard's chest with a thunderous momentum, and the oncoming sword qi even directly broke through the opponent's armor, revealing a bit of bright red blood.
For a while, the guards at the gate of the palace were all surrounded by nervous expressions, and the atmosphere was so heavy that it was about to erupt, Ren Jia smiled indifferently and reversed the hilt of the sword in his hand and slowly handed it over, "Why are you so nervous?" It is a rule that the Tai-Zu can not carry a sword in the forbidden palace, and as a courtier, he naturally has to abide by the Tai-Zu system, and my father said that I am right? ”
Liang Yi looked at the contempt in his daughter's eyes, his heart was complicated, he was both worried and proud, but this did not prevent him from defending his daughter's position, "Since it is a rule set by Tai-Zu, naturally everyone must follow it, since you know, hurry up and present your weapons, so that you can enter the house to see Your Majesty as soon as possible." ”
"That's what my father said." Ren Jia untied the scabbard and short sword at his waist and threw it directly into the hands of the onlookers, and calmly glanced at the guards around him who were like facing a great enemy, "These two swords are my favorite, please be sure to take care of them carefully for me." After finishing speaking, without looking back, he followed Liang's father into the side hall where the courtiers were waiting when they met the emperor.
Waiting for Ren Jia to go away, the guards at the gate of the Purple Palace immediately sent someone to report all the things to the emperor, the Purple Palace, as the important place of the emperor's forbidden palace, has always allowed anyone to be scornful, and now it was humiliated by a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl in front of so many people, this is undoubtedly a slap in the face of the emperor of the dynasty, and the people who went to report the emperor couldn't help but feel worried in their hearts, and only hoped that the emperor's thunderous anger would not fall on him.
The time waiting for the young emperor to summon him was undoubtedly very boring, especially what she did at the gate of the palace just now must have angered the majesty who attached great importance to imperial power, and when Wei Lixin had the intention to snub Ren Jia and Liang's father, the waiting time for the two was even more difficult.
Ren Jia was bored and passed the waiter to put on a chess game, and played backgammon by himself, Liang Yi didn't care, but after watching it for a while, he also became a little interested, and after Ren Jia said the rules, the two played chess without distraction.
"Your Majesty is busy with government affairs now, and I would like to ask Commander Liang and Miss Liang to wait for a while." The servants who came to pass the news were almost covered with cold sweat, and seeing that the two powerful people looked calm and did not intend to punish the crime, they resigned and hurried back to the emperor.
"Father, please allow my daughter and me to go to see His Majesty alone later." After Ren Jia left behind his last son to block Liang's father's chess path, he took a sip of tea with a smile and talked about the purpose of today's trip.
"Today, you don't want to say anything more because of your transgression, but don't get an inch." Liang Yi withdrew the sunspot in his hand and looked at his daughter with a solemn expression.
"If the father already intends to trust his daughter, why don't he have any more points?" Ren Jia didn't intend to go toe-to-toe with Liang Yi, her natural advantage didn't have to wait any longer at this time.
Liang Yi looked at Ren Jiazhi's smug smile, but he was not as proud and happy as he was at the beginning, he suddenly regretted a little, did he inadvertently open something terrible, his current daughter, even he couldn't understand half a point.
In the silence of Liang's father, the emperor announced the will to summon the audience to come, Ren Jia stretched out his hand to block Liang's father's intention to get up, and said with sharp eyes, "Father can wait for good news, and my daughter will go first." After speaking, he followed the summoned servant and left without looking back, leaving Liang's father with a complicated mind.
The Purple Imperial Palace is the important place for the emperor to deal with government affairs and receive the ministers from the beginning of the Tai-Zu era, the palace shape is majestic and majestic, the huge dougong, the golden glazed roof, the bright and gorgeous color, the carved ceiling caisson well, and the beams and pillars of white marble together constitute the majestic and profound forbidden palace.
Young Emperor Wei Li Xin met Ren Jia in the main hall of Qianyuan, and the young emperor who was seated saw that only she was a little girl, and he raised one chin with an unpredictable expression, and quietly looked at this girl who surprised him for several days and hid it deeply.
The main hall of Qianyuan is the purple palace used to meet the ministers of the highest shape, the most beautifully decorated vast inner hall, only the imperial steps under the emperor's dragon chair have nine hundred and eighty-one steps, take the meaning of the emperor's supreme, the young emperor chose to meet Ren Jia and Liang Yi here, may not have demonstrated the emperor's authority and dignity.
Ren Jia stood on the top of the main hall and looked at the emperor on the throne, the young emperor Wei Li Xin has been on the throne for five years, and now he is only twenty-five or sixteen years old, combined with the experience of Liang Yiyun in his previous life, this emperor is afraid that at the beginning of his ascension to the throne, he had already made a grand wish to eradicate the vassal king and the family and collect the imperial city division.
"Why didn't you salute when you saw me?" After waiting for a long time and not seeing Liang Yiyun on the top of the main hall, Wei Lixin thought of the two fathers and daughters who abused power and disrespected the royal face, and said coldly.
Naturally, it was because he didn't want to kneel to you, Ren Jia thought so in his heart, but he had a warm smile on his face, "The little girl entered the palace to help Her Majesty realize her ambitions, and at this time, Her Majesty is not enough to make the little girl surrender and bow, and naturally she can't afford my big gift." ”
"Oh? You actually bluntly said that I can't afford your gift? Wei Lixin withdrew his hand holding his chin, looked at the unashamed girl below with a mocking expression, got up and took two steps forward, "This world is all in my hands, you are just the daughter of a courtier who speaks so wildly, are you really not afraid that I will immediately send you to prison and let your soul return to the underworld?" ”
"If Your Majesty really wants the life of a little woman, but it's just a matter of an edict, why bother to find any Qi Yuwen?" Ren Jia calmly mentioned the scumbag who was cut to only half a life by her a few days ago, and looked at the emperor with meaningful eyes, "For Your Majesty, the little girl is more in line with your expectations when she is alive, isn't it?" ”
"You are quibbling," Wei Lixin slowly walked down the imperial steps, looking at the girl who ruined his plan with a gloomy expression, "It's just an unknown scholar, I sit in the world, and the people in this world are all my people, so why bother with a scholar who has no talent or fame." ”
"Your Majesty does own the world, but it's a pity that there are always some uninteresting pawns in this game of chess in the world who annoy Your Majesty," Ren Jia took two steps forward, his expression was quite gloating, "Your Majesty is ambitious and young, so naturally he will not look at these little pawns in his eyes. ”
Wei Lixin's eyes were full of cruelty, and his chest was murderous because of the girl's merciless words, how high-spirited the Tai-Zu was when he founded the country, and the emperor's decree was surrendered to the world, and now hundreds of years have passed, the family and the vassal king have already become a major disaster for the dynasty, if it weren't for his father and him who have been dormant for many years, I am afraid that the world has already changed his surname.
Even now in the court, it is difficult for him to push the executive order, the family is hugging together to confront the imperial power, the royal majesty is no longer there, even an imperial city division is controlled by Liang Yi, who was born in a eunuch, and the vassal kings outside Yuanjing covet the throne, and his tripartite mediation finally settled the current situation, how can he be willing to be ridiculed by a girl who does not know the world for many years.
"The words of the emperor are not in conflict, how about I punish you with the death penalty of the emperor's dereliction?" Wei Lixin stood in the middle of the steps, looked at the smiling and mocking girl below, and said with a disgusted expression.
"The little girl is really scared," Ren Jia patted her chest with a gesture, "If your majesty is just so bold, the little girl will only feel that she has seen the wrong person and made the wrong plan, except for blaming herself for not having vision, she can't blame anyone." ”
Having said that, Wei Lixin only felt that this girl looked sneering with disdain, if he was guilty of her words and deeds, it would undoubtedly prove that he was just as she secretly mocked, and he really could not be called a surrenderable emperor.
"Since you want to share your worries about me, I might as well give you this opportunity to see what you can do as a weak woman worthy of my attention."
Ren Jia finally provoked the emperor to show the carriage and horses, and said the purpose of his trip word by word with a smile on his face, "The little girl can get rid of the vassal king for His Majesty, what does His Majesty think?" ”
Wei Lixin has seen a lot of arrogant people in his life, from scholars and students to brave warriors, but when it comes to the family and the vassal king who stand side by side with the imperial power, even he, the emperor, does not dare to speak wildly, a slender girl who is only seventeen years old bluntly said that she can get rid of the vassal king and flattening the family, so he laughed directly on the spot, and the laughter was full of absurdity and anger.
"Liang Yiyun, do you really dare not kill you?" Wei Lixin squinted his eyes and looked at Ren Jia arrogantly, he didn't dare to directly attack Liang Yi to rein in the Imperial City Division, but he was worried that the family and the vassal king were eyeing each other, and he didn't want to recklessly make a wedding dress for others, but this didn't mean that his imperial majesty could be trampled on by a eunuch's daughter!
"If Your Majesty kills me, there is no one in this world who can help Your Majesty realize your great wish!" Ren Jia's expression was still neither humble nor arrogant, but his eyes were extremely unruly, and his whole body exuded arrogance to look down on the world.
