The Ming Empire, the imperial city, the night, the lights are bright, the Wuying Palace is like day, on the throne, next to the imperial case, a young man in the imperial robe, haggard face, sideburns already have silver threads are still working hard to write, review the chapter.

When he saw a piece of music, for some reason, the bruises on his forehead suddenly appeared, and he shouted, "Bastard," and then threw the piece in his hand far away.

And he scolded and shouted angrily: "Yang He's really hateful, who was not a child back then, he deliberately appeased the thieves, but now the appeasement has not been half a year, the thieves have rebelled, Shaanxi is erosive again, what he recruits, what he does, I want to take him, I will punish him." ”

The Son of Heaven was angry, what a mighty position, most of the eunuchs and palace maids in the entire Wuying Hall were so frightened that they knelt on the ground, and they didn't even dare to come out, after all, now the emperor is angry, if he touches the emperor's mold, maybe today next year will be his death day.

But there was one man who was not so afraid!

I saw a middle-aged eunuch slowly pick up the fold that fell to the ground, slowly approached the throne, put the fold on the imperial case with both hands, and said with a good face: "Long live Lord, don't you want to spoil your own dragon body for these unsuccessful feudal territories." ”

"How can I not be angry, now Jiannu has become an elbow and armpit trouble, I can barely resist the strength of the whole country, I don't think that there will be chaos among the people, poisoning Shanxi, Shaanxi Province, in the first month of this year, it is easy to recruit the thieves in Shaanxi, and I can free up my hands to concentrate on dealing with the thieves in Jiannu and Shanxi, I don't think about it, the thieves in Shaanxi rebelled, alas, I am busy at both ends, if it goes on like this, the Ming Dynasty is only afraid that it will die in my hands!"

The emperor was originally very angry, but the more he said it later, the weaker his momentum became, and in the end he simply collapsed directly on the throne, with indescribable sadness and melancholy.

When the middle-aged eunuch heard his master say such words, his face changed several times, so he quickly knelt on the ground and hissed and said: "Long live Lord, don't say that, I will definitely live forever, and you will inevitably become a generation of saints." Jiannu, the thieves are just the disease of scabies, long live the lord, if you are like this, you only need to work hard, in a few years, you can fill the treasury, the soldiers are sharp, when the time comes, I will be able to destroy the soldiers and thieves, and the world will be appeased. ”

"Forever!? A generation of saints!? The emperor smiled miserably and said to the middle-aged eunuch: "Great companion, it has been three years since I inherited the Ming Dynasty from the hands of the emperor, and it has been three years, and there has been no improvement in state affairs, and none of the things I want to do have been done well." Bad things are one after another, the northwest has been plagued by famine for many years, the thieves are in turmoil, the first line of Xuanda Chahar is Koubian, the first line of the northeast is a slave and a slave is committed to the Beijing Division, the official army has no combat power, how can there be a new atmosphere? If it goes on like this, I'm really afraid, if Da Ming really dies at my hands, what face will I have to see my ancestors underground! ”

When the emperor said this, there were tears in his eyes.

"Your Majesty, look at you now, the old slave is sad, although you are now the Ninety-Five, enjoy the world, but so hard, you see that you are still so young, sideburns have gray hair, I knew this, you might as well be a prince of peace, even if you have been a prisoner since then, only a world above your head, you can always be carefree, it is always better than now." When the middle-aged eunuch spoke of his sadness, he began to cry.

"Big friend, what did you say? The descendants of Taizu, how can they avoid their own responsibilities because of the difficulties of the world, it's just that they still think of your kindness and don't punish you. The emperor was somewhat moved in his heart, and comforted the middle-aged eunuch with a few words of relief.

"Old slave thank lord Longen." When the middle-aged eunuch heard this, he immediately stopped crying, and said in a timely manner: "Long live Lord, in fact, if there is that person in Shaanxi, it will be a thief and a thief, and it will be okay, he will definitely be able to calm down this chaos." ”

"That person? Who? The emperor was puzzled.

"Liu Renyu." The middle-aged eunuch said word by word.

"Is that Liu Renyu, who has killed the elite of Jiannu Bayala, defeated the thieves several times, and recently killed more than 400 northern captives?" The emperor's eyes lit up, and he asked in a lower voice.

"Exactly, long live the lord, as long as this son is still there, he will definitely be able to defeat the thieves and appease Shaanxi." The middle-aged eunuch advised.

"So very good, Shaanxi has this tiger general, why should the thief not be destroyed, and he intends to order Jinyi Wei to take Yang He's lock to the Beijing division to ask for guilt, and Zhuo Shenghong Chengchou is the governor of the three sides, and he will do his best to suppress the thief." The emperor's complexion changed, the haze on his face disappeared, and he ordered with great momentum.

"Your Majesty, the old slave is in charge, but there is something that the old slave wants to tell the emperor."

"What?"

"Then Liu Renyu is not in Shaanxi, but in the capital."

"Why is he in Jingshi?" The emperor was puzzled.

"Liaodong wants to build a city, and the military department asked him to take his troops to the Daling River to build a city, and now he is just going to Beijing." The middle-aged eunuch explained.

"Speaking of which, there is indeed such a thing, thieves, Jiannu, it is more difficult to deal with Jiannu, so let him go to Liaodong to fight Jiannu first, and when all the things in Liaodong are over, it is not too late to go back to Shaanxi to suppress the thieves." The emperor first groaned, and then said to the middle-aged eunuch with a smile: "Since this son was naturalized, he has made many contributions to the country, and now he has invited himself to Liaodong to fight with Jiannu. ”

When the middle-aged eunuch Wang Chengen saw that the emperor himself said that he wanted to summon Liu Renyu, he couldn't help but feel happy in his heart, and said secretly: "Long live Lord himself said that he wanted to summon Liu Renyu, but it saved our family some trouble." However, he said respectfully: "The old slave has the order." ”

"That's it." The emperor responded and wanted to continue to watch the recital.

At this time, Wang Chengenfu pleaded again: "Your Majesty, it's already Chenshi, it's not too early, please take care of the dragon's body, let's go and rest." ”

The emperor wanted to ignore it, but after thinking about it, he bowed his head and said: "If you want to see the military ministers tomorrow, you must be more energetic to have some spirit, just rest." I remember that someone went to inform Liu Renyu, and tomorrow morning after the dynasty dispersed, I would meet in Wuying Palace. ”

"Yes, long live the old slave, the old slave has written it down." Wang Chengen agreed, and then sent someone to report the news.

However, in view of the fact that the palace gate is closed at night and usually does not open, the messenger can only pass the news through the crack in the door to Liu Renyu and the others who are waiting outside the palace gate.

But said that Liu Renyu really didn't know how to find Liu Chaoqing and Liu Gonggong before, so he had to go to the Ministry of Industry to find the Director Cai, and then Director Cai dragged his friends in the palace to find Liu Gonggong, and when Liu Gonggong came out to contact Liu Renyu, it was already dusk.

Liu Renyu handed over the treasure to Gonggong Liu, and asked Gonggong Liu to hand it over to Wang Chengen, so that Wang Chengen could help say a few words, so that the emperor could summon him.

Speaking of which, if ordinary small characters such as cats and dogs want to face the saint, it is unlikely that they will be able to meet the saint, but Liu Renyu still boasts that he has some fame, and if he wants to come to the emperor, he may be summoned.

That father-in-law Liu had received a generous gift from Liu Renyu before, and he couldn't immediately excuse himself when he encountered something, so he told Liu Renyu that the things were sent over and the words were handed over, but if things were not done well, don't blame him.

Liu Renyu naturally agreed.

When Gonggong Liu went to deliver the message, he thought that it was getting late, and it was inconvenient for the palace city to pass on the message, so he asked Liu Renyu to take his subordinates to guard outside the palace gate and wait for the letter at any time.

Liu Renyu waited and waited until 11 o'clock in the evening before receiving a small note, which said: "Tomorrow morning, after the court, the Wuying Hall will face the saint." ”

When Liu Renyu received this note, he felt relieved, so he took a few of his subordinates and went back to the inn.

The next day, when the sky was bright, Liu Renyu got up, put on a grand court dress, washed his face, brushed his teeth, pouted, asked someone to put on makeup for himself, and used the best posture to face the saint.

Then he rode his horse to the right gate of Chang'an, dismounted, and under the guidance of the officials of the General Administration, he traveled all the way to the side hall of the Wuying Palace, and then, the officials of the General Administration Department left, and a small eunuch was responsible for receiving Liu Renyu.

"Are you the guerrilla general Liu Renyu Liu of Jingbian Fort in Yansui Town, who is going to face the saint today?" The little eunuch asked.

"Exactly." Liu Renyu smiled.

"Right now, Long Live Lord is in the early dynasty, and he will come here in a short time, and he will summon you to meet you when the time comes." The little eunuch said with a smile.

"I'm tired of my father-in-law, it's a little meaning, it's not a respect." After Liu Renyu finished speaking, he took out a pearl and handed it to the little eunuch.

"No wonder the old ancestor and Gonggong Liu said that you are arrogant, and the little slave can be regarded as an eye-opener." The little eunuch took the pearl with a smile, then blinked his eyes and asked Liu Renyu: "Master Liu, you are also bored here, why don't you bring a cup of tea to you to drink." ”

"There is Father-in-law Lao."

Liu Renyu knew that this family was still exchanging, so he didn't refuse.

"Wait a minute, the little slave will come when he goes."

The little eunuch didn't have much time to leave, so he handed it to Liu Renyu with a cup of tea.

"Master Liu, drink it."

"Hey, okay." Liu Renyu picked up the teacup, just took a sip, and didn't watch out for the little eunuch and smiled mysteriously: "Master Liu, is this tea delicious?" ”

"The tea in the palace is naturally delicious." Liu Renyu nodded.

When the little eunuch heard this, he smiled more and more happily and said, "It's delicious, and I won't tell you that the tea you drink is the same as what our Long Live Lord drinks, and it's all made in a teapot." ”

"Ouch." When Liu Renyu heard this, he was really shocked, and he was so shocked that he almost knocked over the teacup.

"Father-in-law, how does this make. This is the emperor's tea. How can I be along, if I drink it, it will not be disrespectful. Liu Renyu was so frightened that he was at a loss.

"Hey! Master Liu, what's this, we often drink the emperor's tea, and the emperor can't finish it alone. The little eunuch said nonchalantly.

"Then father-in-law, aren't you afraid that your ancestor Wang Cheng'en will know about it and punish you?" Liu Renyu wondered.

"The old ancestor can manage so much, we just need to be loyal to the master, long live the master, what can we do with a cup of tea, it's okay." The little eunuch didn't care.

"Oh, then I have to thank my father-in-law, let the last general drink the jade liquid elixir for a while." Liu Renyu bowed and saluted.

"Huh! I can't see it, General Liu is a Sven person, and he said it well. The little eunuch chuckled.

Liu Renyu saw that this little eunuch had a good personality, so he smiled and asked the other party: "Dare to ask the little father-in-law, who is his surname and where is he from?" ”

"The little slave's name is Su Wen, and he is from Hejian." Su Wen replied.

"Hema is a good place,.......。"

In this way, Liu Renyu chatted with Su Wen without a word.

The two chatted for about half an hour, and suddenly heard a call from the main hall: "The emperor has an order, and Liu Renyu, the guerrilla general of Xuanyan Suizhen, will meet you." ”

"Father-in-law Su, the last general is going." When Liu Renyu heard the call, he reluctantly said to Su Wendao.

"General Liu, ..... free" Father-in-law Su wanted to say that he would come back to sit when he was free, but he felt that the Forbidden City was not something that could be come casually, so he could only change his words: "I have time to find a little slave to gather outside the palace." ”

"Okay, good," Liu Renyu agreed, then tidied up his clothes, walked out of the side hall, bowed down and walked into the main hall, according to the rules, he bowed four times, and said in his mouth: "Liu Renyu, the guerrilla general of Jingbian Fort in Yansui Town, has seen the emperor, and my emperor is blessed with Jin'an." ”

"Aiqing doesn't have to be formal, let's talk to each other." A gentle baritone floated from the throne.

"The humble minister thanked the emperor." Liu Renyu replied respectfully, then raised his head and saw the supreme ruler of the Ming Empire.

This was the second time he had seen the emperor, who was darker and thinner than the last, and he looked like a little old man.

"Your Majesty, you have lost weight." Liu Renyu saw Chongzhen like this, and for some reason, this sentence actually rushed out of his mouth.
