Chapter 126: Sitting and Watching the Southwest War Fight Endlessly (8)
The nearly one-month period in Nanjing must have been the most difficult years in Jian Zheng's life.
Fortunately, the suffering will always pass one day, and on the first day of the third month, Jian Zheng finally received a notice from the Ministry of Rites that he would enter the palace with the court officials of the Ministry of Rites, but he had to wait outside the noon gate.
If the emperor summons him, he can face the saint, if the emperor is unwilling to see him, then call the noon gate and return to the station, and wait for the emperor to remember it.
Then wait.
This is the first time Jian Zheng has entered the palace in his life, it is bigger and more magnificent than he imagined, he can't understand how noble the emperor of the Celestial Empire is, so that he can live in such a noble palace, and the Heavenly Palace Qionglou in the mouth of the storyteller is afraid that it is nothing more than that.
In comparison, although it hurts his self-esteem, Jian Zheng also has to admit that Annan's palace is no different from the kennel at all.
The waiting time was always long, and no matter how magnificent the palace was, it could not compare to the importance of his hometown to Jian Zheng, so in just one hour, he began to pace back and forth in a hurry, but fortunately, a little eunuch came over at this time.
"Honorable envoy, Your Majesty summons, please."
Fairy sound ear irrigation, this is fairy sound ear irrigation.
Jian Zheng only felt that the whole person relaxed instantly, and Annan was saved!
Before coming, his father told him many times that as long as you can see the emperor of the Celestial Empire, you just have to cry, cry with your life, the worse you cry, the greater the rescue efforts of the Celestial Empire, they are so face-saving, and they are very friendly to the surrounding subjects and outsiders.
Selling miserably is the best trick to deal with the Celestial Empire, and it has been tried and tested repeatedly.
From the noon gate to the Fengtian Palace, it was only a few minutes of walking, and Jian Zheng had already begun to brew his emotions, and he only needed to enter the main hall in one step, and he could cry and cry loudly at any time.
Dozens of steps apart, Jian Zheng saw a young and handsome man sitting on the golden platform high above, with a delicate face, and there was not too much beard under his chin.
This is the emperor of the Celestial Empire?
Known as the supreme lord of these nine heavens and ten earths, thousands of miles of rivers and mountains?
So young, it should be easy to deceive.
"Ministers of the Nation..."
"Presumptuous!"
Jian Zheng had just spoken, and before the tears could burst down, he heard an angry roar in his ears.
"Who allowed you to look up!"
It was no one else who was shouting, it was Su Gan, who was eating and drinking in the capital with Jian Zheng these days, and the latter at this time was still as polite as some time ago, just like a wild horse that had taken off the leash, pointing at Jian Zheng's nose and blowing his beard and glaring.
"Even if you are an envoy from a vassal country, without the grace of Your Majesty, where are you qualified to look up at Long Yan."
What's that? I can't see what the emperor looks like yet?
Jian Zheng was still in a state of confusion when he heard Su Gan continue: "If you offend Tianyan, you should be beheaded according to my Da Ming law!" ”
Do I knock on it! Do we have a grudge? You have such a big rule, you told me that we were together for more than 20 days before, aren't you playing with me?
Jian Zheng trembled, and before the tears fell, he almost peed his pants.
"The people of a small barbarian country are not educated and civilized, and it is understandable that the kingdom of my heavenly kingdom is a state of etiquette, and the sages have said that they should take virtue and convince talents as the king."
Just when Jian Zheng was in despair, he saw one of the two classes of courtiers walk out, coughing lightly to excuse Jian Zheng. His speech still had a mass base, and voices of support sounded in the hall, and they all felt that it was a loss of mind for a great country to kill in vain for this trivial matter with a faux pas.
"Even if you are a barbarian, since you have come to the land of my Celestial Empire, you should be punished for breaking the law!"
Su Ganyi refuted rhetorically, and walked out of the train and knelt on the ground.
"Please Your Majesty severely punish this outlaw, so that you will not fall into the national dignity of my Celestial Empire."
Where else did Jian Zheng say now, he hated and feared, and the whole person knelt at the temple gate and trembled.
Zhu Yunwen, who was sitting behind the dragon book case, was also interested now, in fact, he had never paid attention to these small details, if it weren't for the small officials of the Ministry of Rites standing up, he wouldn't be able to remember how many courtiers there were in this court.
It's just that the officials of the Ministry of Rites have always paid attention to the bearing of the Heavenly Empire?
How in this matter, so aggressive.
Could it be that this petty official has an enmity with Annan's envoy?
Of course, you can't kill it, and if you kill it, you can't get down to business, but it's good to use this excuse to get off the horse.
Thinking of this, Zhu Yunwen coughed lightly.
"Okay, since it's unintentional, I'll forgive you one or two."
Jian Zheng cried with joy, and just as he was about to say thanks, he heard the young voice sound in his ears again.
"But the death penalty can be avoided, and the living crime cannot be escaped, fork it out, first hit the twenty court rods and then narrate."
Outside the hall, two Han generals stepped in, first glanced at Shuangxi standing behind Zhu Yunwen, and saw that the latter's feet were outward, and they knew it in their hearts.
Eight lives on the outside, eight dies on the inside!
Jian Zheng was still complaining about his flesh and skin suffering, but where did he understand the doorway here, he should be glad that he didn't have a foot disease thanks to Shuangxi.
If the court staff is left alive, the twenty sticks will not be so fatal, although it is inevitable that the skin will open the flesh, it is only an injury outside the skin, Jian Zheng grew up in a small military camp, this bitterness is completely trivial to him.
After receiving the stick, Jian Zheng was much more honest when he entered the Fengtian Hall again, his head was lowered to his arms, and when he entered the hall, he knelt down and grabbed the ground with his head.
"The ministers of the subject country knock on His Majesty the Emperor of the Celestial Empire, and wish the Emperor a longevity of ten thousand years."
Seeing that Jian Zheng was obviously much more obedient, Zhu Yunwen was a lot happier, for these foreigners, just relying on politeness has a fart, people are not civilized, what is engraved in their bones is wolf nature, you have to fight, you can only teach well if you are honest first.
"Speak near the messenger."
Zhu Yunwen looked at the child and felt pitiful, his back was bloody, and he ordered the attendant to move a stool over.
"This honor of being given a seat by the Heavenly Temple, the envoy is the first to enjoy it in so many years."
As soon as Jian Zheng heard this, he dared to sit down, for fear that he would be beaten again if he broke the rules, and he didn't want to get up when he said anything, so he knelt on the ground and began to cry.
"I beg His Majesty the Emperor to save me Annan."
Before Zhu Yunwen could speak, he saw Su Gan popping out again.
"Bold! His Majesty the Emperor gave him a seat, and he didn't know how to thank him, and he dared to refuse to accept the order, didn't he think that I didn't have a knife to cut the messenger? ”
Well done!
If it weren't for Jian Zheng, Zhu Yunwen would have been eager to give this little official a three-level promotion right now.
Look, this is what the Celestial Empire should look like, it's our business whether to give you face or not, but if we give it to you, we have to ask for it!
Jian Zheng suddenly felt that the errand of envoy Daming didn't seem to be as comfortable as he imagined?
