Chapter 72 Who said that eunuchs are useless

In order not to lose too badly in this dispute, Lu Jue began to make multiple preparations. Qi Zhongzong's reversal must also be one of his choices, there is no doubt that the price of his gamble this time is not small, if Qi Zhongzong can calm down and let them fight to lose, then there will be no then! Father and son are how many years have passed since father and son, and that blood connection allows Lu Jue to understand his temperament clearly. Zhongzong has been waiting for so many years, and it is impossible to let go of such an excellent opportunity, the forces in the court are divided into many parts, and he is facing more than one Yan Lie, if he lets his pawn die now, he will have to bother himself to fight those people. Therefore, this move is the key to Lu Jue's life! He will naturally find someone who is sincere to himself to complete this most important task.

Yao Minghao was also conscientious, quick and sleepless, and arrived in the capital in just five days, but even so, when he arrived at the main gate of the palace, Xuande Gate, the curfew time had arrived, and the palace gate had been closed. The life of his good brother Lu Jue and the fate of Daqi are in his hands, and he doesn't care about any rules and regulations, relying on his father's exploits to break in.

The forbidden army guarding the door knew what kind of person he was, and naturally no one was interested in stopping him, and he arrived at the Yonggan Hall of the emperor's bedroom all the way unimpeded.

But when he arrived at Yonggan Palace, he met the person who gave him the most headache, Yang Wei, the chief eunuch. Except for the old ancestor in the family, only this person made him a little jealous. For Lu Jue, he endured Yang Wei's cynicism and reprimand, put on a smiling face and said a lot of good things, but this person just didn't get in the oil and salt, and the two words were not allowed.

Yao Minghao clenched his fists, suppressed the anger that was about to erupt, put on a smile and pointed at his face: "Gonggong Yang, don't you know me!" I, Yao Minghao, Yao Minghao, the great-grandson of the Lord of the Protectors, please raise your noble hand, and let me in to face the saint! I really have something very important to see the emperor! Please, please" also made several moves one after another.

He Yao Minghao was a tyrant in Beijing back then, although he has learned well in the past two years, a hairy boy who has just reached the crown has a clan shade and a father's merit, what will be the big deal! Yang Wei was afraid that he would recklessly collide with the holy car for a while, so he refused unhurriedly: "The little general is so good at laughing!" Long live the Lord is the golden body of all saints, and he is what the little general says he will see. The time has passed long live and you have fallen asleep, you have a few heads to disturb the holy car, listen to the old slave's advice, no matter what, please play tomorrow morning! He glanced at him, shook off the dust, hung on his arm and turned away.

"Hey, hey, Grandpa Yang, don't go!" Yao Minghao resisted the urge to rush up and beat people, he knew that this was not the time for him to make trouble, gritted his teeth and put on a smiling face, chased a few steps to block Yang Wei's way, folded his hands, and pleaded: "This matter really can't wait, just run with Father-in-law Lao Yang!" Human life is at stake, I have been delayed on the road for several days, if it is delayed until tomorrow, I am afraid that my eldest brother's life will not be guaranteed! Please, please. ”

Yang Wei saw that he was dressed in dust, and his expression did not seem to be lying, and his mind moved slightly. But he was not teased by this person once or twice, even if he wanted to help him and was afraid of this kid's way, he decided to be cautious, lowered his eyelids, and asked unhurriedly: "The little general might as well talk to the old slave first, let the old slave listen to the important matter of whose life is at stake, and see if it is worth alarming!" ”

Seeing him so unhurried, Yao Minghao couldn't hold back his anger anymore. He said a lot of good things, but this person didn't listen to a word, his eyes widened, he raised his finger to poke Yang Wei's chest, gritted his teeth and said: "Oh, you are deaf, I have said good things for a long time, and you haven't heard a word in your ears, aren't you just a chief eunuch!" Isn't it just an errand in front of the emperor! What's the big deal, why should I tell you about that big thing, how old are you! Look at your bravado-like appearance, I call you Gonggong Yang to give you face, and I really treat myself as a green onion. Haven't you heard that phrase? If you don't have a door on your mouth, you sneak out and kill my eldest brother, will you pay for it! He was scolded, but he didn't know that he almost made a mistake because of it.

Yang Wei was confused by this sentence, and he didn't taste it carefully, he had the intention to help him, so he just did it now, and pointed at Yao Minghao with a whisk and gritted his teeth and said: "Okay, you little thing who doesn't know what to do, let's let you see, the weight of our family's words!" Turning his head, he ordered the guards of the forbidden army on the left and right: "Come on, fork down this thing that broke into the forbidden palace at night and didn't understand the rules!" ”

"Yes" Several forbidden soldiers took the order, stepped forward and pressed Yao Minghao to the ground and dragged him out of the hall.

Yao Minghao struggled and scolded loudly: "Okay, you dead eunuch, you wait, I will never let you go......"

Yang Wei snorted and waved his hand, "Hurry up and blast this person out." After finishing speaking, he ignored it, looking at everything expressionlessly, he Yang Wei was an old man in the palace, serving two generations of kings, and even the prince and Niangniang called Yang Gonggong. I didn't expect to be angry with a hairy boy today, and I got into trouble with him. Didn't you say that eunuchs are useless, then let's see who has the final say!

Not to be outdone, Yao Minghao stretched his neck, stared at a pair of eyes, and scolded indiscriminately: "Okay, you dead eunuch, you dead eunuch, you won't let me see the emperor today, okay, okay, I warn you, if you are a step late because of this matter, what happens to my eldest brother, I will chop your old boy and throw it into the flower garden to make flower fertilizer!" ”

Listening to his eldest brother, Yang Wei couldn't help but be stunned, no one in the entire capital didn't know that the Yao family was the only seedling, and where did he Yao Minghao come from.

The thought went back to two years ago, Yao Minghao was a tyrant in the capital, although there were small mistakes but no major mistakes, Yao Gongzhi turned a blind eye and let him not force discipline. But who knew that once he was angry for his friend, and he shot too hard and beat someone to death. This completely angered Yao Gongzhi, and pulled Yao Minghao with a steel knife to ask him to resist his life! Fortunately, Lu Jue arrived in time, otherwise he Yao Minghao would have been shouting here at this time.

Because of Lu Jue's intercession, Yao Minghao was able to save his life and be exempted from a capital crime, although he was punished with dozens of military sticks and sat in prison for two whole years, but because of Lu Jue, he greatly changed his opinion of these literati. When he was in prison, Lu Jue took care of him more, and he preached with reason and emotion, and Yao Minghao admired him somehow. Time has passed, and the first thing Yao Minghao did when he was released from prison was to deadlift Lu Jue to emulate Liu Guanzhang and become brothers with him. I don't know where he found a place with pleasant scenery and peach blossoms, and put an incense case on the table to come to a peach orchard. One of them is a young talent, who is young and has a bright future; One is the orphan of the martyrs after the heroes and famous generals, and it is rumored to be a good story for a period of time at this time!

Yao Minghao's eldest brother reminded Yang Wei of Lu Jue, what is Lu Jue's identity, he Yang Wei has been serving the emperor for more than a day or two, and he has long known it. He understands the temperament of the current saint, and he also understands the princes who are not successful, and naturally understands what kind of choice Qi Zhongzong will make. He glared at Yao Minghao, waved his hand to signal the forbidden army to retreat, walked to Yao Minghao, who was afraid of being pulled away again and was holding the big pillar, poked his shoulder with a whisk, and asked, "Let me ask you, the eldest brother in your mouth, but Lu Jue, the secretary of Dali Temple?" ”

Seeing that no one stepped forward again, Yao Minghao let go of the arm holding the pillar, moved, raised the corners of his eyes, and grinned: "Nonsense, who else is there, I, Yao Minghao, have served him alone in my life!" After speaking, he didn't forget to shave Yang Wei for a look.

This is not a big deal, Yang Wei glared at this ignorant person, gave him a slap in the dust, and said angrily: "You are a thing that is not enough to succeed and more than to fail, if you had told our family earlier, it would have been such a trouble!" ”

As soon as he heard that things had taken a turn for the better, Yao Minghao's eyes lit up, and he asked with a smiling face: "My father-in-law agreed!" ”

Yang Wei snorted, glanced at him, and said sarcastically: "Of course, if our family is not in the country, you kid will not throw our family into the flower garden to make flower fertilizer!" ”

Yao Minghao snorted and laughed embarrassedly, and immediately apologized with a smiley face: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, my child, don't worry about me as an old man, I'll give you a salute, and you don't care about it." He bowed a few times in succession

Yang Wei was amused by his appearance, raised the dust and slapped him on the head, not thinking about him, waved his hand at him and said: "You are waiting for Hou to summon here, and our family will give you Tongbing"

Yao Minghao nodded like a chicken pecking rice, and said several times in succession: "Yes, yes......"

Yang couldn't help but smile again when he saw his virtue, this kid turned his face faster than turning a book, he was going to fight and kill just now, and now he is accompanied by a smiling face, he is really moody! He shook the dust and hung it in the crook of his arm, turned around and pushed the door into the Yonggan Palace.

At this time, Yao Minghao finally breathed a sigh of relief, he now only hoped that the emperor could believe his words, and hoped that the words that Lu Jue taught him could help him get rid of his suffering, the more he looked at the closed palace door with expectation!

In just one cup of tea, it was so long for him. Just as he was a little uneasy, the door of the Yonggan Hall was opened. The sound of the door opening made his eyelids jump, and he saw a Gong E in a pink breast-length skirt coming out of it, and at the same time, Yao Minghao wanted the most news. Yao Minghao hurriedly stood up straight, tidied up his clothes, and after saluting and thanking him, he stepped into the Yonggan Hall with Gong E.

As the deputy commander of the forbidden army, Yao Minghao, who has been in the palace for half a year, has also learned to observe etiquette; I also learned a lot of rules, stepped into the dormitory without squinting, walked to the center and knelt on the ground and said loudly: "Yao Minghao, deputy commander of the forbidden army, see my emperor, long live, long live, long live." Then he leaned down and knocked on the ground.

Qi Zhongzong was sitting on the couch chair in the center of the hall wearing a fur cloak at this time, looking a little tired, and looked at Yao Minghao, who was leaning over the ground, and said, "Flat." ”

"Your Majesty." Yao Minghao saluted again before getting up, stepped aside in a proper manner, and squinted slightly at Qi Zhongzong's expression.

But Qi Zhongzong didn't seem to be in a hurry at all, and slowly drank two sips of ginseng tea before slowly asking: "I sent you to protect Lu Qing's safety, but you dared to return by resisting the decree alone, what kind of life-threatening event happened, requiring you to break into the Forbidden Palace at night!" ”

Yao Minghao took a step forward and said respectfully: "Holy Rong Bing, this is the case、、、、、、 he told Zhongzong about the causes and consequences of everything that happened in Hangzhou, and also observed Zhongzong's face, when he said that Zhu Xian, the king of Qi, was dead. Qi Zhongzong closed his lips tightly, and his hands were clenched into fists on the couch.

Seeing this situation, Yao Minghao's heart was completely bottomless, and he was afraid that Zhongzong would use this matter as an excuse to ruthlessly try to take Lu Jue to vent his anger. After all, the one who died was his own son, and the other was his own brother, even if it was disobedient or disobedient, who would give up his relatives and protect outsiders at this time!

After finishing speaking, Yao Minghao was so discouraged that he hung his head and stepped aside, secretly scolding himself for not having the ability to save Lu Jue, but also harming him.

"Lu Qing, how is he now?" What Yao Minghao said just now, Zhongzong heard it clearly, and he also knew very well in his heart what he should do at this time! It's not that he doesn't feel heartache when he loses his son, it's not that he doesn't love his son, the situation forces him to do his best to protect Lu Jue, because only he has a way to contain that ambitious person, otherwise no one will be spared!

Hearing Zhongzong's question, Yao Minghao, who saw hope again, took a deep breath and said what Lu Jue taught him word for word to Zhongzong: "Back to the emperor, Lord Siqing said that now is the best time to regain the military power in the hands of King Luo, Jin and Meng have no time to re-invade the border at this time, although the border crisis is temporarily resolved, but it is still careless, only Your Majesty regains the power of the army and deploys the troops, and the country can regain peace." The king of Qi is dead and cannot be resurrected, but he can do the inducement of this matter, Lord Siqing is willing to be this bait, for His Majesty to catch this big fish and press this person in Hangzhou. I hope Your Majesty will not hesitate and miss the opportunity, if there is a death of the minister, you will not be able to turn a blind eye! ”

Yang Wei immediately added a fire and said: "Long live the lord, don't think again, don't miss the opportunity and never come again, the adults and the people have nothing to do with the royal family, so you can stand by and watch in order to protect yourself." Because with the talents of adults, no matter which court you are in, you will definitely make a difference. Now it is not easy to help His Majesty's heart, long live the Lord must not let the adults fight alone, if there is anything unimaginable! ”

It turns out that this old boy is on his own side, although Yao Minghao is serious on his face, after listening to Yang Wei's words, he really wants to give a thumbs up and pat his ass.

How could Zhongzong Gui not understand the truth as an emperor, he propped his hands on his knees, barely supported his body, and immediately ordered: "Yao Minghao obeys." ”

Yao Minghao immediately came to his senses, immediately knelt on one knee on the ground, and said in a loud voice: "The minister is here." ”

Zhongzong said: "You immediately bring your great-grandfather, the right prime minister Ma Chengqian, and Han Hou into the palace as soon as possible." ”

"Commandment." There is hope for saving Lu Jue, Yao Minghao couldn't suppress the joy in his heart, forgot the rules for a while, turned around and ran out.

After Yao Minghao left, Zhongzong said with red eyes: "What a Lu Jue!" I shouldn't have 、、、、、、 back then."

Hearing this, Yang Wei coughed twice to interrupt him, stretched out his hand to lift the fur fur cloak for Zhongzong, bent down and reminded in a low voice: "Your Majesty, what your lord said is true, it is an indisputable fact that His Royal Highness King Qi is dead, and His Majesty's hatred cannot be changed." At this time, what His Majesty has to do is to prevent future troubles, and now the only way to protect Lord Siqing is to do his best, even if the death of King Qi is really done by adults, long live to swallow this breath! ”

After hearing this, Zhongzong fell into deep thought, how did he not know all this, but now what he was most worried about was that success and defeat were also Xiao He. But now is not the time to dwell on this, it is the country that will be subverted in hesitation. He thought for a while, took Yang Wei's hand and stood up and said, "Yang Wei, take the imperial seal, I want to make an order in person!" ”

"Yes," Yang retreated.

Two hours later, Yao Minghao held the holy decree and rode a fast horse out of Beijing first!

Followed by Ma Chengqian, the right prime minister, Han Hou Han Shao, the great eunuch Yang Wei, and the commander of the forbidden army, Zuo Jizhong, accompanied by 5,000 imperial forest troops, and the honor guard of the prince of the East Palace.

It was a mighty night out of Beijing and went straight to Hangzhou.
