Volume 1 The End of the Dynasty Chapter 14 Courtiers Discuss Each Other

(Today's 3 chapters)

The feast of Huangfu lasted from morning to evening, and the slanting sun slowly slid down the battlements until it completely disappeared on the distant hills, and the hazy night came, and one or two points of starlight began to rise slowly.

Yin Ping Hou Mengying, who was already drunk, suddenly woke up, he sat up with his fat body, there was no trace of drunkenness in his slightly squinted eyes, he looked around, he didn't find Huang Gongfu, the two maids were still kneeling next to him to give him a fan, he waved his hand: "Go down, by the way, what about your master?" ”

"The old man seems to have drunk too much wine just now, and went down to rest." The maid's sweet voice made Meng Ying's heart agitated, but he knew that this was not the time to do these things, and he still had something important to find Huang Gongfu.

"Take me over to see your lord, I have something important to discuss." Meng Ying stretched out his hand to support the ground and wanted to stand up, probably a little drunk, so he couldn't stand up. The maid hurriedly dropped the fan and reached out to help him. Meng Ying finally stood up with the help of two maids.

Meng Ying came out of the banquet hall, a gust of hot wind hit his face, he felt that sweat seemed to come out of every pore of his body again, and he couldn't help frowning. The maid seemed to sense his impatience and hurried forward.

The flowers in the courtyard garden had already bloomed, bright and colorful, contributing to a clump, and the fish in the pond were swaying from side to side, so happy, but Meng Ying obviously didn't have much interest in looking at the scenery in the courtyard, he followed the maid and hurried through the corridor to the backyard. The backyard is where Huang Gongfu sleeps, and no one will easily come in here, and it is not good to enter someone else's bedroom after all, but Meng Ying has something important, there are too many people in the front hall, he can't say it, especially the two who are the latest promotion of the emperor, he said it today, I'm afraid the emperor will already know it tomorrow, he knows that Huang Gongfu is the first minister of the court today, and he will always know some eyebrows.

Huang Gongfu sat on the desk outside the bedroom, staring quietly outside, until Meng Ying's footsteps came from outside the door, he smiled at the corner of his mouth, knowing that this Yin Pinghou must be the first to be unbearable.

Meng Ying walked in breathlessly, wiped the sweat on his head with a handkerchief, and saw Huang Gongfu staring straight at him, Meng Ying put down the handkerchief, sat on the soft futon, and was about to speak, but Huang Gongfu waved his hand, asked the subordinate next to him to bring some herbal tea, poured it for Meng Ying personally, and motioned him to drink tea. Meng Ying was puzzled, but he also knew that Huang Gongfu had been in the court for fifteen years, and he had already practiced human essence, he must have made sense to do so, Meng Ying picked up the porcelain bowl and drank the herbal tea for a while, and then picked up the handkerchief and pretended to wipe the corners of his mouth elegantly, at this time, Huang Gongfu actually closed his eyes and recuperated, Meng Ying suddenly became a little anxious, and said: "Lord Huang, you ......"

"Shh," Huang Gongfu put his index finger to his lips and whispered, "It's still early, it's not time, just wait." ”

Meng Ying was taken aback, could it be that this Huang Gongfu actually knew what he was going to say, but he learned the news from his sister who served the emperor in the palace, how could this Huang Gongfu know? Sure enough, it's a personal essence. Meng Ying thought in his heart, and he also began to calm down, and the heat seemed to subside a lot.

The night had completely fallen, and there was a "rustle" sound of the leaves being blown by the breeze.

I don't know how long it took, Meng Ying began to wait a little impatiently, suddenly, there were footsteps outside the door, a lot, Huang Gongfu looked at Meng Ying and smiled, and said, "Here, it seems that they are all drunk, let's go and greet them." He got up and walked out the door. Meng Ying had to go out with her, only to see that seventy or eighty percent of the people who came to celebrate her birthday today had come.

Everyone greeted each other slightly, and after exchanging a word of elegance, they were welcomed into the room by Huang Gongfu.

Huang Gongfu saw that everyone was seated, and said, "Master Hou can stand and say." ”

Some of the people below have already gotten the news, but more people don't know, so they still looked at Huang Gongfu with some confusion, and then looked at this Yin Pinghou, who was not very liked by everyone.

Yinping Hou Meng Ying rubbed his fat hands and said in his usual sharp voice: "A few days ago, everyone must know that the emperor issued an order to seek talent, but the so-called scholars in the world probably looked down on the court, so only one came, that is Uncle Yang. ”

The insiders don't know what it means to say this here, whether they support the change or not, so no one speaks, and the uninformed people are still talking about the meaning of this, so no one speaks, and the officials of nearly fifty large and small in the hall are all silent, and Huang Gongfu is not in a hurry, he knows that someone will pay more attention to this matter, unless there are people here who really don't understand anything, or even people who have never even read history books, there are indeed such people here, but there are not many, After all, these people have more or less read books in order to show the difference between nobles and commoners, and in history, anything that can be called a change will definitely have some big moves, so he is not in a hurry.

Sure enough, someone couldn't sit still first, only to see a red-robed dressed person stand up, that person was born with a tiger's back, a tie-dyed beard, and an inexplicable fierce light in his eyes poured out, this person's name is Wang Wei, his father is a famous general who fought with Wuzong, and saved Wuzong's life in an enemy attack, so he was named a second-grade general, worship Dinganhou, hereditary replacement.

"What does this mean, does the emperor think that we people just eat and don't do things?" Wang Wei said with a loud voice.

Everyone was shocked, this Wang Wei is simply looking for death, who dares to say that the emperor, fortunately, the current emperor has not killed any courtiers.

"Presumptuous, the emperor is what you can say! If you dare to talk nonsense, you will be beaten out with a stick! Huang Gongfu was only afraid that this old man would not have a long brain, so he said directly and extremely harshly.

Wang Wei snorted, sat on the mat, and did not speak.

But everyone is still a little apprehensive, after all, this is a major event of the country, or a major event related to their future glory and wealth.

"Lord Huang, you are the head of the courtiers, you can give me an idea." Meng Ying said with a grin, he knew that most of the people here didn't care about this, because although there was a lot of oil and water in the world, it only flowed into the pockets of a small number of people, and most people still didn't see much.

Huang Gongfu looked at Meng Ying and sneered in his heart, if this matter is said well, it can be trusted by the emperor and respected by the courtiers, but if it is not said well, it will be abandoned by everyone, and Meng Ying, who seems to be a little dull, is actually extremely shrewd.

"I also only know about this matter, and the emperor has not said it yet, you can rest assured, the law of the ancestors should not be changed, and if it changes, something will happen, so just wait for the emperor's edict."

Meng Ying also sneered in his heart, he was really cunning, and he only said such a painless thing when he gathered the courtiers here so aggressively, and everyone had nothing to say.
