Chapter 725: Audience

(Readers, don't say anything else, the wish of 200 monthly passes this month should still be fulfilled!) )

Outside the main hall, when the bigwigs came out of the hall, Chen Xiaoting intuitively lowered his head.

Keeping a low profile in this part of the capital is the best way to protect yourself, so no matter whether the emperor attaches importance to it or not, Chen Xiaoting will not be arrogant.

The ministers had their own important matters to discuss, so they naturally didn't pay attention to the Jinyi Wei deputy Qianhu in the corner, and left directly in silence with each other.

Then the three of Yu Peizhong came out of it, and after seeing Chen Xiaoting standing outside, only Liu Jinzhong stopped.

"Isn't this Chen Qianhu of Jinyiwei, when did you come back?" Liu Jinzhong asked with a smile, no matter how he listened to his tone, it was uncomfortable.

"Back to my father-in-law, I entered the capital early today!" Chen Xiaoting said very respectfully, he would not take the initiative to provoke Liu Jinzhong, a mad dog.

Perhaps it was Chen Xiaoting's attitude that made Liu Jinzhong feel satisfied, so he turned around and kept up with Yu Peizhong and Chen Hong.

At this time, snowflakes were floating in the sky again, and he had been standing outside the hall for half an hour, and Chen Xiaoting had been frozen to the point that his hands and feet were cold.

"Chen Qianhu, the emperor has sent you to see you!" At this time, a little eunuch came out of the palace gate.

Only then did Chen Xiaoting move his feet, enter the palace under the guidance of the little eunuch, and shuttle through the inner corridor.

The main hall of the Yuxu Palace is divided into several areas, each with different functions, among which the Sanqing Pavilion is the place where Zhu Yujun specializes in meditation.

was taken outside the door of Sanqing Pavilion, and the little eunuch slowly retreated, and Chen Xiaoting suddenly became nervous.

But he still knew what to do, so he simply knelt on the ground, and then kowtowed: "Weichen Chen Xiaoting, long live my emperor, long live, long live!" ”

In the Sanqing Pavilion, even if he is a cabinet boss, he is not allowed to enter without the permission of the emperor, so Chen Xiaoting can clearly distinguish his position.

At this time, Zhu Yujun was sitting on the couch painted by the Five Elements Bagua, and bright yellow curtains were falling around him, adding a bit of mystery to him.

Chen Xiaoting knelt in place for a long time, and when he felt that his forehead on the floor tiles was cold to the bone, he heard a majestic voice from the Sanqing Pavilion say, "Excuse me!" ”

Chen Xiaoting raised his head at this time, then got up cautiously, waiting for the emperor's questioning.

Zhu Yujun looked through the curtain at this time, looked at Chen Xiaoting, who was standing outside respectfully, and asked casually: "I went all the way to Beijing, have you ever returned to the house?" ”

Chen Xiaoting was a little stunned by this question, and then he reacted that this was the emperor trying to win people's hearts, but it still made Chen Xiaoting's heart warm.

So he immediately replied: "Back to the emperor, everything is important to official affairs, how dare the ministers abolish the public ...... Thank you for the emperor's memory! ”

"Well, that's a good point...... If all the courtiers were as loyal to the monarch as you, the Ming Dynasty would not have so many disasters! ”

Zhu Yujun then asked, "The thieves of the White Lotus Sect, have they all been caught?" ”

"Back to the emperor, Weichen has arrested the White Lotus Sect's advocate Xianhong, as well as the middle and high-level of the sect left and right protectors!"

"Now people are outside the palace gate, just waiting for the emperor to send ......"

But Zhu Yujun didn't answer this, but asked, "So...... The Northwest White Lotus Sect is a disaster, and it has all been solved? ”

This question is precisely the most difficult to answer, who dares to make an absolute guarantee.

After thinking about it for a while, Chen Xiaoting said: "Back to the emperor, this time has dealt a heavy blow to the top of the White Lotus Sect, as long as the imperial court maintains the strength of the attack on it, the White Lotus Sect will definitely not be able to make waves!" ”

"You're a cautious man!" Zhu Yujun said suddenly.

The emperor suddenly praised such a sentence, which Chen Xiaoting did not expect, but before he could interpret it in his heart, he heard Zhu Yujun ask again: "You brought King Anyang back?" ”

"Yes!" Chen Xiaoting only replied with one word.

Zhu Yujun was silent for a while before he said, "Wait a while to send people to Zongzheng Mansion!" ”

"Those people from the White Lotus Sect, let's take them back to the prison of Jinyiwei!"

"Yes!"

"The matter of the Northwest, although the performance in the early stage is not good, but the later disposal is quite appropriate, you are meritorious!"

Finally hearing this sentence made Chen Xiaoting feel recognized, and his heart suddenly brightened.

But Chen Xiaoting said: "The minister is ashamed that he failed to suppress the White Lotus Sect's anti-thief flame in the early stage, which caused turmoil in Yongxi, please ask the emperor to punish the crime!" ”

It was precisely these words that made Zhu Yujun look at him again, and his positioning of Chen Xiaoting changed from a useful person to a person worthy of cultivation.

This is a great change, but it's a pity that Chen Xiaoting doesn't know about it, but this does not prevent him from using it in the future.

"I've already said that you have merit, so let's say it...... What reward do you want? Zhu Yujun asked.

How to answer this question really needs to think about it, so Chen Xiaoting is not in a hurry.

"Wechen's current official position and mansion are all given by the emperor, and it is difficult for Wechen to repay the emperor's grace even if he dies, how dare he say that he will be rewarded!" This sounded a little fake, but with Chen Xiaoting's tone and expression, it made Zhu Yujun feel his true feelings.

In fact, Chen Xiaoting is not telling a lie, the big mansion that the emperor gave him is indeed a long grace to him.

This is the capital, and the ancestral house of the Shen family for many generations has only entered the courtyard five times, and the emperor casually gave the same house.

"The reward should still be rewarded, so let's give it together after the year!" Zhu Yujun said casually.

"Weichen thank the emperor for his grace!" Chen Xiaoting kowtowed again.

"Kneel down!"

"Yes!"

Chen Xiaoting got up slowly, and then he was about to retreat outside the hall.

didn't wait for him to take two steps out, but was stopped by Zhu Yujun again: "I heard that you brought pastries back for your daughter, and the bright moon cake just sent from the imperial dining room was given to you!" ”

Speaking of this, Zhu Yujun had a rare smile on his face: "The children have been on the road for a month, bring them back to give them a tooth sacrifice!" ”

The emperor gave his courtiers food, and it was the food that the imperial chef presented to the emperor to eat, which could not be more obvious.

At this time, how can a courtier not be grateful? So, now is the time to fight for acting.

I saw Chen Xiaoting kneeling on the ground with a thud, and then kowtowed: "Thank you for the emperor's kindness, humble duty...... Humble for a pair of children, thank the emperor Longen! ”

I have to say that Chen Xiaoting really worked his acting skills, and he really squeezed out tears.

At this time, a eunuch had already taken out a food box, handed it to Chen Xiaoting and said, "Chen Qianhu, go on!" ”

Chen Xiaoting got up at this time, wiped his tears, took the food box, and then slowly walked out of the Yuxu Palace under the guidance of this eunuch.

It wasn't until he stepped out of the main hall that Chen Xiaoting's heart really fell, and after thanking the accompanying eunuchs, he left the Yuxu Palace.

At this time, the snow in the sky became heavier and heavier, and Chen Xiaoting rushed to the palace gate with the food box carefully in his hand.

In the main hall of Yuxu Palace, Zhu Yujun sat quietly on the couch, but he was thinking about what to do with his nephew.

These anti-thieves such as the White Lotus Sect are simple to deal with no matter how they are handled, but King Anyang, as the imperial prince, is very tricky to deal with.

According to Zhu Yujun's original intention, of course, it was a one-shot kill, but things were not so simple.

In the end, Zhu Yujun sighed: "It's hard to be an emperor!" ”
