Jingshi was shrouded in a chic rain, and a gust of wind blew in the air from time to time, and the dripping rain blew under the eaves of the palace "...... with a bang". The countless palaces and towers in the imperial city were shrouded in a hazy rain curtain.

The clouds that had been cloudy for many days a few days ago finally came down with rain. The rain is incessant.

Outside the imperial gate, Yuan Heng, the secretary of Taichang Temple, who had received an umbrella, was suddenly drenched by a burst of rain that flew diagonally, and his head and face were full of water. I don't know if it was because of the rain or because of something, he was furious and scolded.

Yuan Heng used to be a looker, and his own face was also good-looking, with a square face with white skin and big ears. But at this time, his face was distorted by extreme anger, and his face was also white and blue, and his eyes were bloodshot!

There were also some ministers around, and they all looked different. Yang Rong, the former official of the East Palace, scolded with Yuan Hui, and the person who scolded was Zhang Fu. Guo Zi sighed, and the military department Shangshu Ruyu, Taichang Siqing Xue Yan and others were silent and solemn.

Yuan Hui said loudly and angrily without any scruples: "He Zhang Fu has a heavy army, and even the Holy Lord has accommodated him in every way, I just hope that he will put down the rebellion as soon as possible!" He is good, he will work very hard to deal with dissidents, frame the Marquis of Jiangyin, and arrest the Marquis of Ningyuan, the left deputy general of the Ping Han Dynasty, which is called a thunderous means! But as soon as you encounter the rebels, you will be defeated and defeated! I look at him Zhang Fu, even Cao Guogong back then! ”

Zhang Fugui is a relative of the British Duke and the Emperor, and the prince born to the noble concubine is his grandson. Before that, no matter who in the court was dissatisfied with Zhang Fu, they didn't dare to scold him in public, and they had to save some face. But now Yuan Hui seems to be out of the way, and he no longer shy away from it at all.

At this moment, the celebrant and eunuch Haitao came to the outside of Fengtian Gate.

Without waiting for Haitao to speak, Yuan Heng impatiently stepped forward and asked, "Didn't the Holy Lord come to the Imperial Gate today to listen to the government?" ”

Haitao said with a sad look: "The news from Huguang came back, and the emperor didn't go to bed for several days, alas! The emperor's dragon body has also lost weight......" he gently rubbed his sleeve on his dry eyes, "Last night, the emperor finally returned to the Qianqing Palace and slept peacefully. ”

Yuan Hui asked again: "The Holy Lord is now in the East Warm Pavilion?" ”

Haitao shook his head and said, "The emperor is in the Qianqing Palace." Two months ago, some beauties from the king of Goryeo had come to Gyeongshi; The emperor has been busy with state affairs and has not even seen them. I was summoned at the Qianqing Palace today, and I didn't want to live up to the good intentions of the king of Goryeo. ”

Yuan Heng was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then said, "If the ministers have important matters, please face the saint." ”

Haitao said: "Then the ministers, please come with us, wait outside the Qianqing Gate, and our family will go in and report to you." ”

So Yuan Jue and the others opened their umbrellas, followed Haitao out of Fengtianmen, and then went north.

Everyone came to the Qianqing gate and waited for a long time.

Sure enough, Haitao came out again and said, "Today, the emperor is tired and has no intention of summoning the minister. The emperor said, please Yuan Siqing into the inner saint, play important things; The other ministers will go back first, and each will perform his duties. ”

The officials bowed and said, "The ministers obey the order." ”

Yuan Hui followed Haitao into the Qianqing Gate.

As soon as he walked into the Qianqing Gate, Yuan Jue suddenly heard the sound of silk and bamboo orchestras in the sound of "...... and ". He thought it was a little incredible! Since the news of the defeat of the vast number of war officers and troops in Huzhou was transmitted back to the Beijing Division, there was a heavy depression inside and outside the court.

The more he walked towards the Qianqing Palace with an umbrella, the clearer the sound of the rhythm became. Yuan Heng didn't hear it right! And at this time he also heard the woman's voice.

When Yuan Heng walked outside the gate of the Qianqing Palace, he saw that the main hall was also holding a lamp during the day, and a group of women wearing silk and satin were singing and dancing. They squirmed, trying to show off their beauty to the throne to the north. Yuan Heng stood in astonishment for a while, and then saw those women gathered into a circle amid the sound of the piano, and then threw their long sleeves out in all directions.

For a while, it was as if a large purple and red flower suddenly bloomed, and the scene was quite festive.

"Yuan Siqing, come with us." Yuan Heng reminded in a low voice.

From the wall of the palace, the two of them bypassed the Goryeo beauties who were drumming, singing, and dancing, and came to the throne above.

Zhu Gaochi's face was a little red, and he looked like he had drunk at least several glasses of wine. He sat down in a large, soft and comfortable chair, and did not look the slightest emaciated.

"The minister knocks to see the saint!" Yuan Heng knelt down on the side of the throne.

"Flat." Zhu Gaochi said, "What do you have to do?" ”

Yuan Heng said in a deep voice: "The British public is misguided by the country, and the party is suspicious of the same and dissident, or there is a collusion with the rebels......"

Unexpectedly, Zhu Gaochi directly interrupted Yuan Hui's performance and said, "Don't pay attention to Zhang Fu!" Let me tell you, Zhang Fu is really guilty of losing his teacher and land, but he has no dissent. If he had colluded with Gao Xu, he would have surrendered a long time ago, so would he have to wait until now? ”

Yuan Hui didn't know what to say for a while. He pondered for a moment, then arched his hand and said, "The minister asks the Holy Lord to summon the minister to discuss the countermeasures. ”

Zhu Gaochi squinted his eyes, and actually showed a hint of a smile, and looked at Yuan Heng for a while. Yuan Heng was seen to be uncomfortable.

"I've been thinking about a good plan for a few days." Zhu Gaochi looked like he was smiling, "I suddenly woke up, our Ming court is now a dynasty; The internal and external subjects are all loyal and capable ministers. I thought it would be better to let you and other ministers discuss the handling of military affairs. ”

Yuan Heng was suddenly nervous, and hurriedly said: "The minister respectfully asks the Holy Lord to preside over the overall situation." ”

Zhu Gaochi's expression became very serious, and he said seriously: "What I said is true, you go back and tell the officials of all ministries and temples that all major matters will be discussed; I trust you a lot. Let Yang Shiqi, Yang Fu, and Yang Rong reply with a blue pen, and discuss with you first. ”

"Holy ......" Yuan Hui looked at a loss.

Zhu Gaochi said again: "If you can't argue about it, write it into a concert and ask Haitao to send it in." ”

Yuan Heng hurriedly said: "The ministers are discussing one thing, please make a decision!" Today's candidate for the general of Pinghan, Wei Guogong should be the most appropriate......"

Zhu Gaochi said: "Then you go and invite Wei Guogong." When it is done, I will give him the title of General of Ping Han. ”

"Obey." Yuan Heng thought about it and said, "Why don't you ask Master Daoyan for ......advice again?"

"Sounds good!" Zhu Gaochi said happily, "This flute is played well!" Yuan Siqing, let me tell you, I have been very interested in music for a long time; But back then, the emperor's grandfather was most tired of the clan nobles playing and singing, so I didn't dare to touch the instrument. ”

Yuan Hui's expression was complicated, so he had to bow down and agree.

Zhu Gaochi's voice said: "I looked back and thought about it, and suddenly found that after so many years, I didn't have a few days of comfortable life, and I didn't dare to do what I liked." A few days ago, I wondered, what do I love? You guess. ”

Yuan Jue said: "The minister doesn't dare." ”

Zhu Gaochi's voice whispered: "I like the same sound and color, the rarest Yan thin ring fat all kinds of beauties!" ”

Yuan Heng bowed and stood for a while, and when he saw the emperor and a Goryeo woman eyebrow-winning, he smiled happily. Yuan Hui sighed secretly, but there was nothing he could do...... It seems that there are no rules that prohibit the emperor from getting close to women.

"Please retire." Yuan Jue bowed.

Zhu Gaochi waved his hand without looking back.

This place already belongs to the harem area, and Yuan Heng can't walk around alone. The eunuch Haitao sent him out of the Qianqing Palace again.

The two were silent for a while, and Yuan Jue suddenly asked in a deep voice, "What is the queen's idea?" ”

Haitao also lowered his voice and said: "The queen also agrees with Wei Guogong to take charge of the army, and hopes that Wei Guogong will be able to turn the tide!" Niangniang also said that now except for Wei Guogong, no one has such ability. ”

Yuan Hui nodded: "Just now I talked about Wei Guogong's appointment to the post of General of Pinghan, and the Holy Lord did not object, Gonggong Hai heard it." Gonggong Hai came forward to ask Wei Guogong's idea; As soon as you go, Wei Guogong will know that it is the meaning of the palace. ”

Haitao hugged his fists and said: "Our family will follow what Yuan Siqing said...... Yuan Siqing said in front of the emperor, Master Daoyan has a good plan? ”

Yuan Heng said: "After I leave the imperial city for a while, I will immediately go to the temple to meet Master Daoyan. ”
