Chapter Ninety-Seven: The Seventeenth Master
A group of regular attendants at the gate of Xiyuan were waiting, and one of the regular attendants led by him had some fairy bones, and Shu Changshou also lost half of his body.
As soon as King Hua got out of the car, he shouted with some joy when he saw this regular attendant: "Grandpa Zhang, are you back from Mingcheng?" ”
Ah Gong Zhang, as soon as this title came out, this regular attendant who was quite a bit of a fairy wind and bones happily greeted him.
This person called "Zhang Ah Gong" by King Hua is the "Zhang Changshi" in the mouths of the ministers, and after he came, he took over the affairs of the inner court of Xiyuan.
"Oh, these old slaves haven't seen King Hua Chitose, and they look more and more like Your Majesty when he was young." Zhang Changshou is really like a grandfather at home, holding King Hua and touching King Hua's head.
This scene made everyone present envious.
If the above scene makes people feel envious, but the following sentence makes people feel intimidated. Zhang Changshou: "Your Majesty asked Ah Gong to come back, just because I was afraid that there would be no one around you to take care of you." From now on, if someone bullies you outside, Ah Gong will come forward. ”
After speaking, he turned his head to Mo Haig and said: "Hagrid, Your Majesty has been waiting for you for a long time, and you are a little tired, this is also noon, come in and eat a soup first, and then go in when Your Majesty wakes up." ”
Mo Haig saluted and followed into the West Garden.
Not far from the West Garden is the Zongqin Mansion, and just a quarter of an hour before Mo Haige and King Hua entered the West Garden, Mo Longxiang walked out of the Zongqin Mansion.
Mo Longxiang entered the clan family's mansion to receive punishment, and His Majesty's holy decree was "to think about it behind closed doors for a month, and not to go out of Huadu unless ordered." "The one-month period starts today.
The Zongqin Mansion is different from the Zongren Mansion, the Zongqin Mansion only deals with the royal clan bloodline, while the Zongren Mansion covers a wide range, from His Majesty's concubines to nobles with foreign surnames, all of them are nailed and riveted here in the Zongren Mansion.
In the eyes of ordinary people, it is really a little boring, but after all, it is an official business, and what is played is "procedure" and "sense of ceremony".
When you enter the door of the clan palace, you have no identity outside, no matter what kind of official you are, in the clan palace, there is only the royal rank.
As soon as he entered the clan family's mansion, a disciple stepped forward to ask: "Master, what is this here to do?" ”
"Mo Longxiang, receive the punishment." Mo Longxiang returned.
"Southwest Loft." After Menzi pointed to the southwest, he immediately looked at Mo Longxiang with a smile behind his back.
Mo Longxiang casually stuffed a gold pendant into the door and smiled.
Menzi quickly accepted it and said, "I'll take you there." ”
Menzi led in front, Mo Longxiang followed, although at first he walked in the direction pointed by Menzi, but he turned around and arrived at a house. Menzi pointed and said: "The punishment is the ancestor of the "sheng" generation. ”
Mo Longxiang stuffed another gold pendant and said with a smile: "You are lucky. ”
"To do things for the Hou Ye, no matter how hard you work, you should do it." Menzi took two gold pendants and left with a smile.
The Han family has a generational theory, such as the Song Dynasty's "Kuang Dewei Congshi Lingzi, Bo Shixi and Meng Youyi" such a couplet style, or the Ming Dynasty's "Gao Zhan Qi Jianyou, Hou Zai Yi Changyou, Ci and Yi Bo Zhong, Jian Jing Di Xianyou" five-character poem style, or the current Qing court used in the "Yin, Hong, Yong, Mian, Yi, Zai" one-word pattern.
The imperial family, using the single-word model, the first year of the empire, it happened that the generations of the previous generation had been arranged, and Emperor Taizu appointed ten characters "Sheng, Qi, Han, One, Zi, Zheng, Cheng, Ying, Xiang, Kun", but the regulations are regulations, and Emperor Weide is not making a hard requirement, so when it comes to Mo Longxiang's generation, the generation is the generation, and the name is the name. For example, Moore is a member of the character "Han", but no one has a name with this character.
Mo Longxiang entered the main hall, no one was on duty, yes, this kind of institution is held by the royal family, these masters, it is strange if they can be on duty.
There was no one in the main hall, but there were bursts of hearty laughter in the side room.
Mo Longxiang looked for laughter, walked to the side room, the door had not been pushed open, and he immediately said: "The door is not closed, come in." ”
Entering the house, there are two people in the house, one of whom knows him, is his father's long history Qian Youhe, and the other, with a blank beard, faces Prince Tonggong somewhat similarly, which is the "eldest ancestor of the 'Sheng' generation" in Menzi's mouth.
"I've seen the Elder Ancestor." Mo Longxiang said.
Qian Youhe stood up with a smile and introduced: "This is the seventeenth son of Taizu, the younger brother of His Majesty, according to the generation of the son, it is not an exaggeration to call the seventeenth master." ”
"I've seen the Seventeenth Master." Mo Longxiang said obediently.
The old man was very happy, Mo Longxiang looked at Qian Youhe and there were two new birdcages behind him, one was covered with black cloth, and the other was empty, but the empty birdcage was made of pure gold.
Seventeenth Master: "Your Majesty has always instructed us not to be the executor of the rules of the Three Sects (Zongqin Mansion, Zongren Mansion, and Zongwu Mansion), not to be the traditional spokesperson, and to do less of the sword slashing of the previous dynasty as a court official. ”
Mo Longxiang listened and didn't say anything.
The seventeenth master stood up, led the two out of the side room, and walked to the main hall in a few steps.
The Seventeenth Master sat down at the top and said, "Kneel." ”
Mo Longxiang knelt in response, and the seventeenth master took the ring ruler from the case, stepped down from the head of the case, handed the top of the ring ruler to Mo Longxiang, and said, "Take a look, there are the seals of His Majesty and the Taifu on it." ”
Mo Longxiang looked up and saw that there were indeed two engraved seals on the top of this bamboo ring ruler, one with a gold edge and the other with a red edge, and the specific characters were not clearly understood.
"Yes, I see."
The seventeenth master said: "After Your Majesty ascended the throne, he asked the Sanzong Mansion not to easily beat the heirs of the royal family, and to humiliate them in private, unless they are direct blood relatives, otherwise they are bullying the king." Therefore, if I beat you, I have to use this ruler with a seal on it, and I have to show you, and this has become a rule. Alas, back then, we used a random elder to beat and scold when he said, and he still used this. ”
The seventeenth master was a lot of rambling, Mo Longxiang and Qian Youhe didn't dare to interject, and finally said: "According to the rules, anyone who is punished must receive a penalty ruler ten times and stretch out his hand." ”
Mo Longxiang stretched out his hand, and the seventeenth master picked up the ring ruler, but he didn't fight it, but put it in Mo Longxiang's hand, and said: "Fight yourself, you also know the rules of fighting." ”
Mo Longxiang took the ring ruler in his right hand, stretched out his wrist with his left hand, and exposed the pulse, only to hear the sound of "snap", Mo Longxiang recited: "A punishment, disrespecting the emperor, discrediting the country." ”
Another "Smack!" ”
"Two punishments, disrespect for the elders and teachers."
"Smack!"
"Three punishments, delicious and lazy."
"Smack!"
"Four punishments, ignorance and greed."
"Smack!"
"Five punishments, narrow-mindedness."
"Smack!"
"Seven punishments, see God bend the knee."
"Smack!"
"Eight punishments, self-willingness."
"Smack!"
"Nine punishments, don't keep promises."
"Smack!"
"Ten punishments, self-inflicted."
Mo Longxiang hit very hard, and the pulse of his entire left hand was already purple and swollen.
The seventeenth master turned out to be a ruler and said: "Two days ago, Mo Hu came here to receive the punishment, and he also beat it himself, but the ring ruler was stained with his skin, and now you are real." ”
Mo Longxiang didn't speak, and the seventeenth master said: "Get up, you are so real, there are not many in the royal family." Since you have this attitude, I will also tell you: you have thought about it behind closed doors, if you don't have the next sentence 'you are not allowed to go out of Huadu', it means that you are at home behind closed doors. And the addition of this sentence 'not to go out of Huadu' means that you are not allowed to leave Huadu within a month, understand, you have to remember this, I will be fined here a month later, and it will be fine. ”
Mo Longxiang nodded.
"Get up."
Mo Longxiang had just gotten up, and he was really about to salute and leave, only to hear the seventeenth master whispering: "Come to me at noon tomorrow." ”
Mo Longxiang's eyes rolled, and he just reacted and looked at the seventeenth master, but the seventeenth master seemed to have never said anything.
When Qian Youhe accompanied Mo Longxiang out of the clan mansion and got into the carriage, Qian Youhe showed distress and gave Mo Longxiang medicine, and said: "The son of the world is really ruthless, and he can be so ruthless to himself." The prince happened to attend a banquet of a British chamber of commerce at noon this day, and arranged it at the Savoy Hotel, and we will go over now, otherwise we will not see the prince when he returns to the palace. ”
Mo Longxiang frowned and asked, "Why are my sister and my mother here?" What has become of the situation in the entire Huadu, you still have to take them over! What are you all doing? ”
This will make Mo Longxiang's state completely different from the state in Moore's car just now.
Qian Youhe explained: "Shizi, this is not the meaning of the inner court, it is under the concubine, and I have to come." ”
Mo Longxiang withdrew his hand and said, "I am hostage in Huadu, my father is half in the palace, and my mother and sister are also sent to Huadu by you!" Now it's Mo Longqi who is in charge of things in Zhenhaigang, you are really a good uncle. ”
Qian Youhe was frightened, hurriedly knelt in the narrow carriage, and said in his mouth: "Shizi, if you think so, you will torture the old minister." ”
Mo Longxiang: "We are royal, we are a favorite girl and a strict son, and the disaster will not affect my sister, you can send my sister abroad as soon as possible, even if it is to Zhaojia." ”
"Zhaojia is not safe, it is very chaotic." Qian Youhe said.
Mo Longxiang shook his head and said: "Sure enough, it's disobedient, it's just that, I want to find a way, if you make any moves in the middle, I don't mind using the second branch to send you." ”
Mo Longxiang could clearly see Qian Youhe biting his back molars.
There was no more talk in the car, and when I arrived at the embassy area, there were more trees around me. The carriage was walking on the road in the shade of a sunny pass, and the sound of the horse's hooves ticking made Mo Longxiang a little sleepy.
When he was about to arrive at the hotel, Qian Youhe said: "Minister, I just want to assist His Royal Highness King Luo......"
"That time has not come." Mo Longxiang pushed back with a word.
After entering the hotel, Qian Youhe and Mo Longxiang walked into a small single room, and King Luo entered the room after a while.
As soon as King Luo entered the house, Mo Longxiang stared at Qian Youhe. Qian Youhe was informed and left.
"You're disobedient this time." King Luo said.
Mo Longxiang pursed his lips and said, "My mother and sister were brought to Huadu, Dad, do you know?" ”
"You blame me? It's all a disaster that you broke through, this time you are so eye-catching, if I don't take your mother and sister over, what will Your Majesty think? Your mother said that if I don't pick up your sister, our family won't be able to leave! ”
Mo Longxiang looked at King Luo with some confusion.
King Luo frowned and said, "I can't understand this thing?" Bringing your sister to Zhaojia is to show your majesty, if something happens......"
"Yes, I know, at the beginning, His Majesty asked his sister to enter the palace as a proton, and you tried to refrain from writing eighteen articles, and finally sent me, who should not be a proton, to Huadu." Mo Longxiang said this, quite annoyed.
"Presumptuous, you know what!" King Luo roared.
Both of them stopped talking.
After a while, King Luo said: "I know what you are worried about, you don't have to worry, your sister will enter the palace tonight, and she will accompany the concubine for the next two days, all the way to the ceremony."
"Grandpa controls his son by holding his granddaughter, and he is really a harmonious and beautiful emperor." Mo Longxiang said.
King Luo's voice was two points higher, and he said, "Presumptuous, I called you here, not to listen to your yin and yang weirdness. ”
