Chapter 365 Enter the palace and face the saint
Liu Renyu, Li Jiye, Yang Desheng, Zhang Tieniu, Sun Wuxian, Wang Zuohang and others each dismounted, tied the horse to the horse stone near the left gate of Chang'an, and then followed the officials of the General Administration Department to enter the road between Daming Gate and Chengtian Gate.
Then they passed through the Chengtian Gate, the end gate, and walked towards the noon gate.
"Yesterday, when the father-in-law of the inner court gave you the edict, he already told you the rules, right?" The official of the General Secretary asked as he walked.
"Yes, Grandpa Liu has already explained the rules to us yesterday." Liu Renyu replied.
"That's good, you have won a big victory, the emperor is happy, today's dynasty, the emperor is in the emperor's palace, the officials above the fourth grade in the Beijing division, whether it is the Beijing official or the official who is released, it is very lively, so today you must be careful, be careful, otherwise the monarch will lose his honor, not to mention the great achievement, maybe you will have to go to the edict prison." The official of the General Administration said solemnly.
"Ming, understood." Li Jiye and the other generals were already nervous, but now when they heard the official of the General Administration say this, they suddenly sweated like pulp and became even more nervous.
Only Liu Renyu has entered the palace several times and is completely immune to such words.
After everyone walked for a while, they walked outside the noon gate, and the official of the general administration stood still and said to Liu Renyu and other military attachés of Jingbian Fort: "Do five bows and three bows." ”
Liu Renyu and others bowed five times and kowtowed three times according to their words, kneeling on the ground and kowtowing.
Among them, Zhang Tieniu, a real person, didn't care about the fact that the emperor couldn't see himself at all, and when he knelt on the ground and kowtowed, he hit the ground with his head heavily, hoping to smash the ground into a pit.
It was finished with these heads, and the others were not injured, but Zhang Tieniu had a bruise on his forehead and suffered a small injury.
The official of the General Administration Department silently watched Liu Renyu and the others kowtow to the master, and then said again: "Let's go, follow this official inside." ”
Liu Renyu and other military attaches followed behind the officials of the Tongzheng Division, passed through the Noon Gate and the Huangji Gate through the side gate, and then arrived outside the Huangji Hall of today's Great Dynasty.
At this time, in the main hall, Chongzhen, who was in a very good mood, sat on the dragon chair, and the officials above the fourth grade stood on both sides of the station. Among them, Wen Tiren and other Hanlin scholars stood on the left side of the emperor's throne, Jinyiwei commanded the envoy to stand on the right side of the emperor's throne, the six departments, the nine Qing, and the six departments were divided into left and right, the imperial history was divided into classes facing the north, and the officials of Honglu Temple stood behind the imperial history.
Today is a day of great joy, the officials know that the emperor is in a good mood, so today does not talk about disasters, does not talk about border troubles, does not talk about rebellion, does not talk about thieves, and even the six departments have decided to stop for a day, let the emperor go, and no longer look for trouble with the emperor today.
Everyone changed their way to say something nice, what "the victory of the Great Ling River is the biggest victory of the Ming Dynasty since the Jiannu uprising, so far Jiannu knows that there are people in China!" The list goes on and on.
Some of the agitated ministers even shouted out such words as 'restore the entire territory of Liaodong, wipe out the Jiannu in one fell swoop, and relieve the northeast border trouble once and for all'.
When Chongzhen heard these words, his heart was inevitably a little fluttering, a big Linghe would destroy 5,000 soldiers of Jiannu in one battle, and if he fought a few more battles, Jiannu might be dead, and it may not be impossible to restore the entire territory of Liaodong Dusi.
And just when the festive atmosphere in the main hall reached its peak, suddenly the officials of Honglu Temple sang: "Today, there are five members, including Liu Renyu, the guerrilla general of the Yansui Army Zhenjingbian Fort, and Li Jiye, Yang Desheng, Zhang Tieniu, Sun Wuxi, and Wang Zuohang, a total of six people. ”
"Oh, Liu Aiqing is here." As soon as Chongzhen heard Liu Renyu's name, he immediately perked up, and said to Wang Chengen: "Quick, announce him quickly, I want to see him, I want to see him now." ”
"Yes, yes, long live the master, the old slave will go." Wang Chengen smiled and decided to personally go to Xuan Liu Renyu and a few others to come in.
In fact, such trivial things did not need to be handled by Wang Chengen personally, but Wang Chengen was grateful to Liu Renyu for repeatedly bringing good news to his master, and this Liu Renyu often honored himself, so he personally came to the outside of the main hall and prepared to call Liu Renyu and others in.
At this time, outside the main hall, the military attaches of Jingbian Fort, who were about to meet the emperor, behaved differently.
Liu Renyu has seen Chongzhen several times, and he has long been no longer nervous, but the others are not.
Li Jiye didn't know how many times he swallowed saliva; Yang Desheng's face is colorless; Lotte sent Sun Wuxian to wipe the sweat beads on his forehead from time to time, which seemed extremely hard; Wang Zuojiao was trembling all over, if it weren't for the fear that the king would be guilty of losing his manners, he would almost collapse to the ground.
Zhang Tieniu often asked Liu Renyu in a trembling whisper: "General, when you enter the main hall later, should you take your left foot or your right foot?" ”
Liu Renyu knew that Zhang Tieniu was nervous, so he said gently: "Tieniu, you can walk how you usually go, as long as you don't jump in." ”
"Got it, got it." Zhang Tieniu replied with a chick pecking rice.
"Don't panic, it's not too tight, just kowtow more and talk less." Liu Renyu reminded again in a low voice.
"Yes, yes." Li Jiye and other military attachés replied in a low voice.
"A group of mountain goods, just to meet the emperor, as for it?" The official of the General Administration Department who led Liu Renyu and the others to the Imperial Palace snorted slightly, and said secretly with a disdainful face.
Just as the military attaches of Jingbian Fort were fetching fifteen buckets of water in their hearts, seven up and eight down, Wang Chengen Shi Ran with a smile on his face walked out, saw Liu Renyu and smiled lightly: "General Liu, long live the master, Lord Long Live is waiting for you, hurry up and go in." ”
"Yo, Princess, what an honor it is for you to come out to greet you in person." Liu Renyu smiled.
"Let's not talk about this yet, the emperor is waiting for you, go in." After Wang Chengen finished speaking, he turned around and walked in front and led them in.
"Gentlemen, let's go." Liu Renyu took a deep breath, bowed down and walked into the Imperial Palace.
Li Jiye and other military attaches were also like large lobsters, following behind Liu Renyu and rushing in.
When Liu Renyu and others entered the Imperial Palace, they first pushed the gold mountain and poured the jade pillar according to the rules, knelt on the ground, and kowtowed to greet him.
"Minister Liu Renyu."
"The little Li Jiye, Yang Desheng, Zhang Tieniu, Sun Wuxi, Wang Zuohang."
"Knock on the emperor, my emperor is blessed with Jin'an."
Liu Renyu is an old man, kowtow, say goodbye and it's over, but Li Jiye and other generals don't know if they are too emotional, or if their brains are short-circuited, anyway, they are addicted to kowtow, and they can't stop it.
"Bang, bang, bang, bang."
The hall was filled with the sound of foreheads hitting the ground.
Chongzhen, who was sitting on the throne, saw this scene, and couldn't help laughing: "Enough, enough, a few meritorious soldiers, and don't be busy kowtowing, get up and talk." ”
"Your Majesty." When Liu Renyu and the other generals heard Chongzhen's words, they stood up, but their bodies were still bowed.
"Liu Aiqing, I still remember the first time I saw you, you led the troops to King Qin, fought a small victory, beheaded the ninth level, the last time I saw me, you beheaded four hundred northern captives in the northwest, or won the battle, and then invited yourself to fight in Liaodong, looking for me to ask for artillery, and said that Jiannu disturbed my holy car, and wanted to kill them for my anger, Aiqing really did what he said, and did what he said, after such a great victory in the Ling River, you really got angry for me, and it was also my Angelo." Chongzhen laughed.
"It is the duty of the minister to make the emperor happy, and the minister will do his best to win more battles in the future, and if he can enter the palace to meet the emperor, he will be the angel as a saint, and if he can't enter the palace to face the saint, he will write a fold to the emperor to report the good news, so that the emperor will always smile and see the sun every day." Liu Renyu replied with a smile.
"Liu Aiqing is really good at talking, hahahaha." Chongzhen was in a good mood and laughed.
Chongzhen laughed, and the ministers in the hall also laughed.
"Liu Aiqing, you fought a big victory in Liaodong this time, which greatly boosted the morale of the people of my Ming Dynasty, I really want to know how this battle was fought, and you can tell me and the ministers in the hall to listen to it." Chongzhen asked with interest.
