"Shaoling."
"Right Cheng."
The front hall of the General's Palace. Jia Xu and Huangmen Ling Zuo Feng greeted each other and sat down.
After taking a sip of the fragrant tea sent by the maidservant, Zuo Feng, who came in a hurry all the way, said: "Fortunately, I am not dishonored." His Majesty's Yongle Palace family banquet and other people are all on the book. ”
As he spoke, Zuo Feng took out a roll of white silk from his sleeve. Hand it to Jia Xu.
Jia Xu took it with both hands and slowly unfolded it.
Your Majesty's words and deeds. All have historians' records. Put Your Majesty's every move. See also in the living book. Scale: Living Note.
"The ancient people, the left history of the record, the right history of the words, so to prevent mistakes, and show the queen. The duty of note-taking is the same thing. ”
At present, there are no full-time officials. Most of them are recorded by the internal officials around His Majesty.
Zuo Feng is the Yellow Gate Order. Nature has the right to view. I also asked the Yellow Gate, palace maids, guards, and others who were on duty that day.
The personnel exchanges on the day of the family banquet, the arrangement of the guards and many other inside information were clearly investigated.
Why is Youcheng so worried about the family banquet? Although he has not said anything about the Yellow Gate Order. However, the general of Fuhan did not see any visitors in January. Zuo Feng also knows a thing or two.
There must be a reason.
This is to sit down with tea and wait for the right man to read the white silk handbook.
Rao is, Jia Xu, who is wise enough to be close to the demon, also failed to find the abnormality.
During the family banquet, the two queen mothers and the queen all left halfway. Except for the two queen mothers who stayed in the garden, where did the two queen mothers go? ”
Empress Dowager Dou returned to Yuntai. Empress Dowager Dong's guard of honor also entered the side hall. ”
"Why did you enter the side hall?" Jia Xu asked.
"In May, Gengshen, Yongle Palace was damaged. Damage to the dormitory. It has been repaired for several months, so the Empress Dowager Dong moved to the side hall. ”
"On the day of the family banquet, there are still craftsmen in the Yongle Palace?"
"Yes, yes." Zuo Feng nodded slightly.
"But will it be overseen?"
He will be in charge of the civil construction of the palace, temple, mausoleum, etc. The chief is a master craftsman.
"Definitely. Because it is the dormitory of the Empress Dowager Dong, the matter is urgent. His Majesty ordered Bi Lan to take full responsibility for the court created by the good organs. ”
"Oh?" Jia Xu pondered for a moment, then asked, "Are Shao Ling and Ye Ting Ling Bi Lan familiar with each other?" ”
"The court ordered Bi Lan to be a big Changqiu, but I am not familiar with it." Zuo Feng shook his head.
It turned out to be the person of the Great Changqiu Cao Festival. Cao Jie has a very shallow relationship with the lord. And the life-sustaining medicine is also a gift from the lord. Harming the lord is harmful to Cao Jie, and there are many harms but no benefits.
In other words, the court ordered Bi Lan to be innocent.
"Why don't you ask each other face to face." Zuo Feng said.
"This matter will have to bother the lord to go out."
Sending Zuo Feng away from the Yellow Gate, Jia Xu entered the atrium, kicked the study on the third floor, and met the lord Liu Bei.
"Why bother with the long autumn." Liu Bei smiled slightly: "Ordered Shi Lian to come to the door to post, and the court ordered Bi Lan to come to see him." ”
"Yes." Although I don't know what kind of friendship the lord has with the court Ling Bi Lan. If the lord says so, Jia Xu can do it.
Before going out, Liu Bei said again: "Wenhe must be cautious. Don't startle the snake. ”
"The minister knows also." Jia Xu bowed out again.
As the lord said.
First, Shi Lian took advantage of the night to post. Later, Bi Lan stepped on the moon.
Jia Xu and Bi Lan are not familiar with each other, and they still need Liu Bei's recommendation.
The host and guest are seated.
Liu Bei introduced Jia Xu, the general's mansion, to meet Bi Lan, the court commander.
Jia Xu's name, the court made Bi Lan have long heard of it. He is a confidant of the general.
The general was crowned the king of thistle again. The position is high and weighted. It's not as casual as it used to be. In order to avoid suspicion, many things must not be done by yourself.
Today, I introduce Jia Xu and his acquaintance. The intent is self-explanatory.
That is to say. In the future, if there is anything, the court will order Bi Lan to come to the door to discuss with Jia Xu. Then Jia Xu told the lord Liu Bei.
Liu Bei personally came forward today to bring the two to get acquainted. It's a guarantee.
"The court order is incompatible with me, Wen He has something to say, but it doesn't hurt to say it." There is a noble girl to vouch for the two, and Liu Bei threw 100 million dollars. The relationship between interests is not deep. It can indeed be called "intersecting and irreversible".
The court ordered Bi Lan to smile flatteringly at Liu Bei first. He rushed to Jia Xuzuo, who was sitting opposite, and said, "As the general said, slaves and maids are not outsiders. I don't know what you want to ask? ”
Jia Xu replied: "I want to ask about the construction of the Yongle Palace." ”
Bi Lan was stunned. I thought that Jia Xu wanted to go to Zhan Gong to win the laurels. Unexpectedly, he asked about the construction of the harem.
Seeing that the general was expressionless. Bi Lan cheered up: "In May, there was a fire in the Yongle Palace Office. Affected the Queen Mother's bedroom. His Majesty ordered the slaves and maids to build with all their might. So the slave and maid searched according to the map and restored it as it was. It was completed by the end of July. But I don't know, what are the doubts about this matter? ”
Jia Xu smiled and said, "How dare the foreign minister doubt the internal official." I just want to ask, when the Yongle Palace Department is repaired, is there anything abnormal? ”
Bi Lan shook his head resolutely: "Step by step, there is nothing abnormal." ”
Jia Xu asked again: "Where did the craftsman come from?" ”
"Recruited by Yongxiang."
The harem of the former Han Weiyang Palace is called Yongxiang. It was originally a long alley in the Imperial Palace. For the palace maids who have not been assigned to the palaces, they live in a centralized manner. Later, it also became a place where concubines who lost power or fell out of favor.
The present Han Dynasty set up a court order and a Yongxiang order. The court ordered the nobles in the harem to take women's affairs; Yongxiang ordered the warden maid. Both officials were held by eunuchs.
The court is also located here.
It is natural and reasonable for the court to order Bi Lan to recruit craftsmen here.
The trail was interrupted.
Seeing that Jia Xu was silent. Bi Lan, who didn't know what he was in, rolled his eyes. began to excuse himself: "Because it is the queen mother's bedroom, the slave and maid dare not have the slightest delay." Supervising the work day and night, the doppelganger lacks skills. Therefore, the recruitment of craftsmen will be entrusted to Yongxiang Order. If you want to know the details, how can you ask Yongxiang Ling? ”
Jia Xu's eyes lit up: "Dare to ask the internal official, who is Yongxiang Ling?" ”
"Zhongchang serves Xu Feng." Bi Lan blurted out.
Seeing Jia Xu looking at himself. Liu Bei shook his head and said, "I don't know either." ”
Bi Lan said with a smile: "Speaking of Xu Changshi, there is still one person to mention. ”
"Who?" Liu Bei asked.
"Your Majesty's mother-eater, Mrs. Cheng." Bi Lan replied again.
Liu Bei has also heard of this person. She is the adopted daughter of Cheng Huang, who is often servant.
Cheng Huang and his people, how can Liu Bei not know! The strategy of his adopted daughter is even more unique.
Former Situ Liu He married his adopted daughter. Si Li's wife is also his adopted daughter.
Cheng Huang accepted bribes, squeezed out Zhongliang, and used his qualifications to be old and old, and to be powerful. He is known as "Lord Cheng". In the first year of Guanghe (178), Cai Yong was ordered to go up and mention Cheng Huang's crimes. His Majesty got up and changed his clothes, and even the music was leaked.
Cheng Huang therefore teamed up with the Great Changqiu Cao Festival to frame Cai Yong and exile him. Later Sili Lieutenant Yangqiu and Liu He and others plotted to eradicate the eunuchs, and Cheng Huang betrayed his son-in-law under the persecution of Dachangqiu Cao Jie and others. and even the plan was leaked, so that Liu He and others were killed.
Set off a chain reaction. and even everyone is in danger. The government is not in the same situation.
How could Liu Bei think of it. A palace red pill turmoil actually involved so many big people.
It also made him more determined. The real culprit behind the scenes must be traced.
Who has such a means to reach the heavens?
"Dare to ask the internal official, what is the connection between Yongxiang Ling and His Majesty's Eating Mother?" Jia Xu asked for Liu Bei.
