Chapter 163: Audience
Yao Wuxian followed Jing Shun's order to come in from the back door of the palace, and when he saw Jing obeying the order, the forbidden soldiers at the back door bowed down one after another, and even the forbidden army captain on duty had a flattering expression on his face, Yao Wuxian felt a little ridiculous when he saw this scene, a little eunuch, just because he was a member of the Detective Affairs Department, even the forbidden army captain had to nod and salute.
Chu Mi has been eroded to this point, can His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who has ambitions against the sky, really be saved?
"When you get to the palace in a while, you will rest in my room, and if the time is not right, you will not move yet."
After entering the palace gate, Jing obeyed the order and let Yao Wuxian get out of the carriage and follow him, bending over and following with small steps, so that he would not be suspected, Yao Wuxian tried to walk a few steps like this, and felt really fucking tired.
"In two hours is the time for dinner, according to the rules, Your Majesty's meals must go through two inspections, the first is the Ouchi guards, the second is our Detective Division, I am on duty tonight, I will take you with me when I go over, you don't have to say anything just follow behind me, and when it is sent into the house, I will let you take a dish."
Yao Wuxian nodded, and he asked curiously: "Little father-in-law, why did you choose to stand on the side of the prince?" ”
Jing obeyed the order and stopped, he glanced back at Yao Wuxian with some anger in his eyes.
After a moment, he slowly exhaled and said, "I'll talk to you when I get back to the house." ”
Yao Wuxian didn't ask anymore, and followed Jing Shun's order back to his residence, it seemed that Jing Shun's status in the palace was not low, and the palace maids and chamberlains he met along the way would bend down and salute when they saw him.
Returning to his residence, Jing obeyed the order and waved his hand and ordered: "You all go to the door and wait, this newcomer will come into the house with me, I will teach you the rules of the palace and the rules of the Detective Department, and no one else is allowed to come in without my order." ”
"Yes!"
The chamberlains and the guards of the Detective Department in this courtyard all bowed down and retreated, and it could be seen from their attitudes that Jing Obeying the Order was definitely not the kind of little eunuch with little power that Yao Wuxian thought at first.
"You ask me, why do you want to stand on the side of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
Jing sat down obediently, poured himself a cup of tea, he took a sip and looked at Yao Wuxian and said: "Because I was originally a person of His Royal Highness the Prince, four years ago, I was found by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince from his hometown in the countryside and connected to the capital, and then after several turnovers, I got rid of the relationship and entered the palace to be a little eunuch, and it took me another two years to get Liu Chongxin to notice me and promote me to the Department of Investigation. ”
Yao Wuxian immediately understood, why Jing Obey's position in the palace and the Detective Affairs Department was so special, those eunuchs who seemed to be of a higher level than Jing Obey's order, when they saw him, they also nodded and greeted him, and they all flattered as if they were old foxes who forcibly became adults without attaining the Tao, and there were some hypocrisy that people could see, but they themselves should not have noticed it, and they thought that they were profound.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince met you in the Heroes Building, do you know why it is the Heroes Building?"
Jing obeyed the order and asked Yao Wuxian.
Yao Wuxian shook his head: "I didn't think about it, probably I just chose a random place?" ”
"No, because the hero building also symbolizes the glory of Da Chu, symbolizes the original military spirit of Da Chu, symbolizes loyalty and courage, the first generation of the hero building is called Wu Yuan, who was the personal soldier of Emperor Taizu, and then the hero building was occupied, and Wu Yuan's descendants were also forcibly driven out of the capital, they returned to their hometown in Suxian County, but they have always been unwilling in their hearts, and they have always hated, Mr. Yao, I, my surname is Wu."
Yao Wuxian's face changed, and he couldn't help but have some respect for this little eunuch.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince sent someone to find us, I was only fifteen years old when I came, my father said to me, the ancestors are the pioneers of the Great Chu, and we, the descendants, must also be ready to sacrifice to protect the Great Chu, we all believe that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can save the Great Chu and save the people of the world, so I volunteered to enter the palace."
Jing listened to the order and breathed a sigh of relief and said: "You actually don't know how long His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been preparing for this day, how much he has prepared, and you don't know how many people are ready to sacrifice for His Royal Highness the Prince, most of the people in this world have already knelt down, kneeling in front of those ugly and disgusting people in power, and they are secretly living, but not all people in the world are like this, and there are still people who are willing to stand with their backs straight, or ...... Standing to death. ”
He looked at Yao Wuxian and smiled and said, "I'm just an insignificant person, but I'm still proud of what I'm doing. ”
Yao Wuxian nodded, he now believed that some people in this world were different.
Jing let out a long breath and said a little sadly: "If a person like His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was born a hundred years earlier, even if it was fifty years, Da Chu would not be what he is now. ”
Yao Wuxian said: "That's not necessarily, if you were born a hundred or fifty years early, you won't be by his side to help." ”
Jing snorted obediently: "People like His Highness will never lack followers, just like there will be many, many people like us, for His Highness and for Da Chu, even if we go forward and die, we will not hesitate." ”
Yao Wuxian suddenly discovered that this little eunuch was different from others, because he had faith, and his belief was that the crown prince Yang Jing firmly believed that Yang Jing could revive the dying Da Chu and make Da Chu's old and battered body stand up again.
"What if you lose?"
Yao Wuxian asked.
Jing obeyed the order: "If Your Highness loses, Da Chu will die, Your Highness is the last person who can save Da Chu, if we lose, at least we can tell others before we die, in order to save the world, we have worked hard, and we have worked hard to take our lives, and no one can laugh at us." ”
Yao Wuxian nodded, Thaksin.
Jing was silent for a while and then asked, "What do you want, just tell me, there are less than two hours before you go to His Majesty's dormitory to change the guard, you can sleep, you can eat something, tell me what you want to eat, and I can have someone send it over quickly." ”
"Come to the bar with two pots, and the dishes are casual."
Jing frowned after hearing this: "You can't drink, drinking may make a mistake." ”
Yao Wuxian smiled: "You underestimate me, I won't make a mistake when I drink, I will only be calmer, and ...... You shouldn't have turned me down, because this might be the last time I'll drink on earth. ”
Jing thought about it and nodded: "Okay, I'll drink with you...... I haven't had a drink in the capital in four years, and I'm afraid of making a mistake when I drink, but today I want to have a drink with you. ”
Yao Wuxian said: "If you want to drink, just say it, God knows if this is also the last time you will drink in the world." ”
A moment later, Yao Wuxian picked up the wine glass and looked at Jing Obedient and said with a smile: "Unexpectedly, the last time I drank was with a little eunuch." ”
Jing obediently glanced at him, then picked up the wine glass and said, "I am also a big husband, no one is inferior to you." ”
An hour and a half later, the emperor's bedchamber.
Jing obeyed the order and led a team of guards from the Investigation Department to the door, and the guards on duty immediately bowed down to him and saluted, Jing obeyed the order and waved his hand casually, as if because of the wine, he did not have the nervousness he had when he first met Yao Wuxian.
"You go back
Go ahead, and I'll check it myself when His Majesty's dinner comes up in a moment. ”
"Yes!"
The group bowed down again and left the dormitory door.
"Is Jing obeying orders outside?"
There was a lazy and old and weak voice in the room, Jing was obviously startled, and his shoulders trembled slightly, but he quickly replied in a calm tone: "Back to Your Majesty, it's the slave and maid outside." ”
"Where's your master?"
"Your Majesty, my master has gone to Lima City, and he is ordered to supervise the army."
"Hmm...... He begged me to go, but I forgot, come in. ”
Jing Obey's face turned slightly pale, according to the original plan, he and Yao Wuxian were going to go in together to deliver dinner, Yao Wuxian looked for an opportunity to attack the emperor, but now, Jing Obey felt that the timing might be better than when he was eating, so he temporarily changed his plan, he gave Yao Wuxian a look, and motioned for him to follow.
Yao Wuxian nodded and straightened his clothes to prevent the traces of the Biye Knife from being revealed.
Jing obeyed the order to enter the door, the old emperor's room was full of smoke, Yao Wuxian almost coughed out, he didn't know what this smoke was, but it smelled a little strange, and it was a little disgusting.
He didn't know that this thing was called ghost addiction cream, it was something that came from Qiu Liguo outside the southern border of the sea frontier, it can make people addicted, and it can't be quit, this thing is Liu Chongxin dedicated to the emperor, and the emperor can't do without it now, and he has to smoke it every day.
At this moment, Yao Wuxian saw the old emperor lying on the dragon bed, wearing a short placket, the buttons of the jacket had not been buttoned yet, the white-haired and old Long Zhong was as thin as wood, his face was wrinkled, and when he spoke, he could see that his teeth were about to fall out, that was the emperor?
Is the emperor supposed to be like this?
The old emperor was helped to sit up by the palace maid next to him, he looked sallow, there were few teeth in his mouth, and it was not that old feeling, because there were still a few teeth that were black, and these teeth were also broken in half, as if they were rotten, and the emperor looked like an old ghost who refused to leave the world, and stole the supreme power in the world.
"When will your master come back, I miss him a little."
The Emperor asked in a hoarse voice.
Jing obeyed the order and hurriedly replied: "Your Majesty, my master and he only left the capital yesterday, and I am afraid that he has not yet arrived in Lima City at this time." ”
The emperor seemed to be very sluggish, he thought for a while and said: "I miss him, let him come back, why bother to go outside to bask in the sun, isn't it good to accompany me in the palace?" ”
Jing obeyed the order and hurriedly leaned over and said, "Your Majesty, Master, he is ordered to supervise the army." ”
The emperor snorted: "It's clear that I just want to hide from me..... Whose will is it decreed? It's not mine, I can let him go and let him go back, huh? Who are the people around you? It looks like I've never seen it. ”
Jing obeyed the order: "Your Majesty, he is a new person in the Department of Investigation, originally worked in the local area, because of his good martial arts, and he was steady and cautious, so he was transferred to the capital by the master, and the master said that he left the capital temporarily, and he was not worried about Your Majesty, so he should strengthen the manpower defense of the Department of Investigation." ”
The emperor sighed: "I have many brothers, brothers, but I have always known that those brothers of mine want to take away my country, only Liu Chongxin really regards me as a brother, and he is the only one who ......."
The emperor seemed to have forgotten something, and as if he was thinking about something, after a moment he asked Jing to obey the order: "What about your master?" ”
Yao Wuxian was stunned.
The person in front of him is really the emperor?
