Chapter 128: Unclean Little Eunuch
Chapter 128: Unclean Little Eunuch
"What's the matter, Lord Xu doesn't have this thing at home?" The woman smiled and said, "Come on, go and get a few dozen catties to give to Lord Xu." ”
"Oh, the concubine ......"
Xu Qing took a breath of cold air, and there was a concubine in front of him, so he bowed again; "The concubine is above, please bow to the ministers." At this time, Xu Qing suddenly remembered that Li Yuan's queen died long before the founding of the Tang Dynasty, and there was only one concubine room before the emperor, and the concubine room was deeply trusted by Li Yuan and was named a concubine, so she must be the person in front of her, Wan Guifei. Wan Guifei gave birth to the king of Chu, and was killed by Sui on her back, and there was no queen, but because of this, she was able to take charge of the harem, plus the prince or something, and she also respected her very much, and was later given the princess of Chu.
Concubine Wan smiled, shook her head and said, "Lord Xu, please get up, you are the person the emperor often says, and this palace does not dare to accept you again and again." ”
He said, "Okay, this palace is also a little cold." Zhao Gong, you take Lord Xu around the palace, and in the future, you will work under the horse in front of Lord Xu's saddle, and you don't have to serve the palace. ”
The eunuch named Zhao Gong immediately knelt down to thank him, and the thunder, rain and dew were all graces. Wan Guifei said to one person beside her: "Reward him ......." After speaking, she left. Then a palace maid gave Zhao Gong a bag of money, and a eunuch brought a bag of sponges.
Seeing Concubine Wan leave, Xu Qing couldn't help laughing, patted the bag of sponges, and was about to carry it. I saw Zhao Gong pounce over, knelt down and howled: "Master! Beg to be left behind! ”
Xu Qing was surprised: "What, you come along, it's okay, I really lack someone." Xu Qing finished speaking, but he didn't see Zhao Gong up, and when he asked, he realized that Zhao Gong saw Xu Qing carrying the bag by himself, so he thought that Xu Qing didn't want him. Xu Qing explained, this is not heavy, but Zhao Gong still took it. Looking at Zhao Gong, who was less than twenty years old, Xu Qing asked:
"Zhao Gong, how old did you enter the palace?"
"Master, I don't know how old I entered the palace," Zhao Gong said with a smile: "Since I can remember, I have been in this palace." I heard the old eunuch say that I was thrown in front of the palace gate by others, and another eunuch saw me
Poor man, he brought me in. After the death of Sui, some old eunuchs were driven out, and those of us who were young stayed. ”
After speaking, Zhao Gong was still smiling, but there was humility and fear in that smile.
Xu Qing couldn't help sighing, he was cut since he was a child, then, uh, it's not bad compared to other eunuchs, right? At least it won't be a pity, Xu Qing opened his mouth, but still didn't tell the joke.
However, Zhao Gong saw that Xu Qing wanted to speak and stopped, and knew Xu Qing's thoughts, so he pulled Xu Qing to a rockery, and took the initiative to say: "Lord Xu, I hope you keep one thing secret......" As he spoke, he lifted his hem and took off his cotton pants, and a small bird shook out.
Xu Qing was shocked at first, and was surprised that you pulled me to the corner and let me watch the birds, what was your intention? Then I was shocked again, how could this eunuch be fake? Although each part is a little smaller, it still has a complete form, and it is difficult to do it, it is growing again.
Zhao Gong also suddenly realized that it was really not good to keep the bird exposed in front of the master, so he quickly put it away and explained: "When the villain entered the palace, he was crushed, and then the emperor didn't live in the palace, so they didn't care about me so much." Later, when I entered the Tang Dynasty, they didn't know that I was not clean, and I was selected to serve by Concubine Wan's side, so I escaped. Lord Xu, the villain's life is in your hands, I hope you keep it secret, and you will definitely get a grass ring to report! ”
Xu Qing sighed at the strength of his vitality, crushed it and grew back, and when he heard it, he asked, "Then why did you choose to tell me?" If you don't say no, there will be nothing? ”
Zhao Gong lowered his head and said: "I know that Lord Xu is a good person, besides, I can only follow Lord Xu in the future, in case Lord Xu finds out in the future, wouldn't I be a capital crime?" Now that I've said it, there's still a glimmer of life."
Xu Qing shook his head, it was not easy for anyone, and asked, "I can keep it secret, but what does Concubine Wan mean by letting you follow me." Will you still live in the palace in the future? ”
Zhao Gong said: "No, I won't stay, I will live with you in the future." ”
So Xu Qing said: "Okay, since that's the case, then you can follow me." I'll keep it secret for you, wait for a few more years, hey, your thing will be long, and in a few years, I'll marry you a daughter-in-law. ”
Zhao Gong was embarrassed when he heard this, bowed his head and said nothing, Xu Qing asked him to lift the sponge and take him to Xuanwu Gate to work and check in.
In Li Yuan's imperial study, several black-clothed people knelt in front of Li Yuan again last time. Li Yuan took a magnifying glass, looked at the folds, and then said, "Recently, what has happened to Xu Qing?" ”
"Your Majesty, there are more than a dozen carriages from Lord Xu's house, all of which are sent by the magistrate."
Li Yuan didn't seem to hear it, and the rest of the people continued.
"Your Majesty, Lord Xu went to Shangshu Province today to discuss matters and help the ministers solve the problem of Ling Xun."
At this time, Li Yuan raised his head and asked, "Isn't the method Xu Qing said the righteousness of the official and the benefit of the people?" ”
"The emperor is wise, that's exactly the case."
"So where did he go next? In the next few books, I didn't see him speak......"
"Well, Your Majesty, then Lord Xu, went to Taiye Pool and met Concubine Wan."
A few people in black thought that Li Yuan would scold angrily, but they didn't expect Li Yuan to just laugh and scold: "That stinky boy, why did you go there?" ”
The man in black said: "It's the wrong way, Wan Guifei rewarded Lord Xu with a little eunuch and a bag of sponges, and at this time he asked the little eunuch to take it to Xuanwu Gate." ”
Li Yuan waved his hand, let the man in black go down, and pondered: What is this sponge used for, what does he want a bag for, isn't Wan Guifei bullying Xu Qing The young man is not rich, and he doesn't understand sponges, right? Then he shook his head, finished the fold in his hand, and then covered it with the jade seal. I wanted to watch it again, but I couldn't stand it anymore, so I said to the guards guarding the door: "Come on, set up the Xuanwu Gate, I want to ask him, what is the use of this sponge!" ”
-----
After Xun Fang arrived at Dunyifang, he saw dozens of big cars parked in front of his house, and they lined up dozens of feet along the side of the street. It turned out that Xu Qing had just entered the Taiji Palace, and the follow-up convoy arrived. They also got the letter, Xu Qing's own things were sent to Shantianzhuang, and those gifts were sent to Dunyifang.
Xun Fang looked at the long convoy, and couldn't help but have a headache, there are so many things, they have to be sent to the homes of major officials one by one. Xun Fang went over, took the gift list, counted it, and sent it to the warehouse he built. Now that the ministers have not returned home, it is also a blank belt to send gifts, and besides, officialdom pays attention to a sequence, so you can't give it away indiscriminately.
