Chapter 94: Rejoicing with the People
The chief eunuch next to the emperor, Gonggong Deng, walked in with tea, and just heard these words, and said with a smile: "Things that can make the emperor interested can be really interesting." ”
The emperor laughed and said, "You old thing, you are used to saying good things." Come on, come on, you analyze, is it the Northwest Palace's ability to win, or the Confucian family's ability to win. ”
Gonggong Deng straightened up, shook the Buddha dust in his hand, and smiled a lot of folds on his old face: "Ouch, the emperor's question, I really got the old slave." In this life, the old slave knows how to serve the emperor, and the rest, the old slave can't. ”
The emperor smiled and said: "Others don't know, don't I know the ability of Gonggong Deng? When my father was still a prince, Gonggong Deng was waiting by his side. This courtier has changed a generation, and Gonggong Deng is still sitting firmly in the position of the chief of the internal prison, if Gonggong Deng says that he is incapacitated, I really don't believe it. ”
Gonggong Deng hurriedly knelt down, kowtowed, and said, "The slave can have today, thanks to the emperor's appreciation." Slaves are toothless and unforgettable. ”
The emperor said lightly: "Okay, you have the skill of being a dragon, and you have been serving diligently all these years." We all know how much you are capable of. You don't have to be sloppy in front of me. Tell me about it, why did Tao Yao and Kong Yuehua do this?"
Gonggong Deng said in a puzzled and whispered: "This ...... According to the emperor's speculation, isn't there something between the Northwest Palace's Mansion and the Kong family?"
"Fart!"
The emperor snorted coldly: "There's a fart! Others don't know, don't you know? The princess of the northwest and the queen mother are lifelong friends." The Kong family is a descendant, so naturally it is also sincere. I dare to say that even if your little Deng Zi betrayed me, then there can't be anything between the Northwest Mansion and the Kong family. ”
Gonggong Deng's body that had just gotten up knelt down again, and he said in fear: "The emperor is a slave, the slave is a slave of the emperor when he is born, and he is also a ghost slave of the emperor when he dies, so he dare not betray the emperor." ”
The emperor said angrily: "That's what I said, what are you doing so nervously." Come, you help me analyze and analyze. What are they going to do?"
Gonggong Deng smacked his lips: "Listening to the emperor's analysis, the old slave is also open." According to this theory, the inference that there is a gap between the Northwest Royal Mansion and the Confucian family is no longer valid. Is it possible that this matter was caused by the Northwest County Lord and the Confucian family's young lady who loves martial arts makeup? The old slave heard that although the Northwest County Lord was young, he was very competitive. On that day, when His Royal Highness King Gui took her to the horse farm to choose horses, she met Miss Kong, and there was a discord between the two of them, thinking that they would decide the winner. That's why you did this?"
The emperor nodded and said, "What you said also makes some sense. I have also heard of the temperament of the county lord of the northwest. All day long, he shouted that women were not as good as men, and he wished that he had given birth to a boy and wanted to compete with his four brothers. ”
As the emperor spoke, he shook his head with a smile, only thinking that Tao Yao was too ridiculous.
How can a woman compare with a man?
Father-in-law Deng nodded hurriedly: "Isn't that what you say." Miss Kong of the Kong family is also an arrogant person. You can see that she spends her days practicing riding and archery on the horse field. ”
The emperor shook his head and said: "This Kong family is very strict, no matter how deviant this Miss Kong is, she can't be like the lord of the northwest county." ”
Father-in-law Deng has a different opinion: "But I heard that this Miss Kong is also arrogant." may just feel that this is an ordinary road, and there is no way to get ahead in the Kong family. That's why the sword went sideways, hoping to be taken seriously. ”
The emperor is the king of a country, and he will not pay attention to the affairs of these daughters' families on weekdays.
If it weren't for the fact that this gamble was too shocking and involved many courtiers' families, he wouldn't have bothered to ask.
Now listening to what Gonggong Deng said, I feel that it makes some sense, but I am also curious: "You old thing, you are not diligent in your errand all day long, and when you talk about these gossips, you are the first to gossip." ”
Gonggong Deng smiled and said: "The emperor is wronged, the emperor is clear." The old slave is not like the emperor, and he worries about family and country affairs all day long. The old slave is old, and he has the emperor's mercy to have something to eat. I can only mix in the world of the harem all day long, and listen to the gossip of the palace daughters and the eunuchs. But they are all east families, and west families are short. Occasionally, I heard a little useful, no, I just hurried to show off in front of the emperor. It's just a smile from Emperor Bo. ”
Although it is gossip, it sounds a little reasonable. However, the handicap of this gamble is also a little too big. There are too many people involved. "I'm still a little worried, for fear that there will be undercurrents surging in it, which will affect the stability of his court.
Gonggong Deng hurriedly stepped forward and smiled: "The emperor is too worried." This matter, even when the emperor listened to it, he also felt that it was very fresh and interesting. Not to mention the people, not to mention the families of those officials. Everyone is just having fun with the emperor. Who made the emperor bet, those who were ready to move, who didn't pay attention at all, also rushed to join in the fun. This spread out, and he participated in the same gambling game with today's saints, tsk, how beautiful it is, how faced. ”
The emperor's doubts dissipated a lot, and he looked at what Gonggong Deng said over there, raised his eyebrows, and said with a smile: "Listening to you say this, this is the person who pushes this gamble to get bigger and bigger like a snowball." It's not someone else, it's me?"
Gonggong Deng didn't say anything to excuse himself this time, and said with a smile: "Now that the world is peaceful and prosperous, the emperor is happy with the people and happy with the people." ”
"Yes!"
The emperor laughed: "I am just happy with the people." You also go and place your bets, and be happy. I know you have money in your hand. ”
Father-in-law Deng hurriedly agreed and went out, and as soon as he went out, he raised his hand to wipe the cold sweat on his head, and was glad in his heart: fortunately, he didn't let the emperor see any clues. However, you still have to hurry up when it comes to betting, after all, it is not bad to be able to win a small hand.
Stretched out his hand to summon a little eunuch, took out a bag of silver, and taught him to take Tao Yao, the lord of the northwest county.
The little eunuch weighed the weight, and then felt sorry for Grandpa Deng: "Master, this emperor has suppressed Miss Kong." The master went to the northwest county lord, isn't this not very good. This is a lot of silver, in case you lose, don't feel distressed. ”
