However, it was said that Yang Su wanted to reduce the royal family, and after being rejected by the ministers, he drove back to the palace angrily. As soon as he returned to the Qianqing Palace, Wang Chengen, who had carefully observed Yang Su's face all the way, found that the emperor seemed to be in a good mood, and hurriedly came up, "Your Majesty, Cao Huachun and Cao's father-in-law are still kneeling outside the palace gate, and they can't pull it up." ”

"Oh, what is he doing here?" Yang Su said curiously.

"He said that he knew that he had made a big mistake, and his majesty was not strict and had to apologize to the emperor with death." Wang Chengen mentioned Cao Huachun with a look of hatred, "The old slave heard the little ones say that he has been kneeling for an hour, and he is only wearing a single dress on his body in this winter, if it weren't for the old slave knowing that Cao Gonggong has already changed his bones and is not afraid of the cold and heat, the old slave is afraid that he will sympathize with him!" Since the emperor wants to die himself, let's let him kneel and see how many days he can kneel to die. ”

"Haha, you! If you want to say good things to him, you don't have to beat around the bush like this, go and call him in! Do you really want me to meet him in person? Yang Su shook his head and scolded with a smile, Wang Chengen responded happily, and called Cao Huachun into the hall.

Looking at Wang Chengen's back, a glimmer of light flashed in Yang Su's eyes. This group of eunuchs in the Ming Dynasty is not simple, I originally thought that Wang Chengen was Yi Gu Xiaocheng, but I didn't expect that there was Cao Huachun, who was full of Yi Gu, which was an unexpected joy.

You must know that martial arts cultivation and Taoist cultivation in the world are also four realms, and each realm is divided into three levels, small success, great success, and consummation. The four realms of martial cultivation are refining tendons, changing bones, changing marrow, and holding pills, which correspond to the cultivation of qi, the transformation of spirits, the return of emptiness, and the way of harmony. Martial arts training is different from cultivation, which focuses on talent and Taoism.

Although martial arts training also attaches great importance to these, talent determines the starting point, but hard work is more important! And martial arts training also requires huge resources, and although martial arts cultivation enters the realm quickly, it must be that the monk's combat power is strong, but there are always physical limitations, and once they are old and weak, they will quickly slip from the peak.

The most important martial arts cultivation is not immortal, so it is despised by the monks and regarded as the next way, so the masters of martial arts cultivation are generally from the imperial army, but they never thought that these eunuchs in the Ming Dynasty were actually good at martial arts!

If it was Cao Huachun by his side today, although the Jingxu Daoist was said to be a great monk in the realm of returning to the void, he was in a hurry to be close to Cao Huachun, a martial artist who was easy to bone, and he was afraid that he would not be able to survive three moves before he was captured.

"Your Majesty, the emperor's slave and maid are guilty, and the slave and maid deserve death!" Before Cao Huachun arrived, the cry came from outside the hall, and the voice was sad but sincere.

"Get up! You are also an old man who has followed me since the palace of the king, I can't trust others, can't I still trust you? Yang Su picked up the tearful Cao Huachun and carefully looked at this eunuch who was scandalized in later generations.

Tall, fair-faced, upright appearance, a little righteous, usually without the yin qi of the eunuch, which makes people feel good.

Cao Huachun is called a false son. When he was young, he entered the palace because of his family's poor background. Cao Huachun was proficient in poetry, calligraphy and painting, so he was deeply appreciated by the celebrant eunuch Wang An. Later, he entered the palace to accompany Zhu Youzhen, who was very favored by Emperor Chongzhen, and was exquisite, as a eunuch Cao Huachun was friendly with Donglin, and was loyal, and there were no other evil deeds.

On the contrary, it was to rehabilitate Wei Zhongxian's more than 2,000 unjust, false and wrongful cases, and saved countless Donglin Party members, never thought that after the Manchu Qing Dynasty entered the customs, it was also slandered by the Donglin Party members, and some people wrote to Cao Huachun to surrender in the seventeenth year of Chongzhen, which made Li Zicheng's peasant army occupy the outer city and lead to the loss of the capital.

"Your Majesty!" Hearing Yang Su mention the letter to the palace, Cao Huachun's eyes were red and there was a burst of tears, and Wang Chengen, who was standing next to him, also silently wiped the corners of his eyes.

"Okay, okay, all of them are doing some children's gestures, and they are not afraid of making people laugh! I've already heard Cheng'en say the specific thing, and I can't blame you for the suddenness of this matter, but some people's hands are a little too long. Yang Su patted Cao Huachun on the shoulder.

"Your Majesty, the whereabouts of the chamberlain Dongchang have been inquired, he disappeared after entering a shop in the capital, the old slave guessed that most of them had been wiped out, but the shop was opened by merchants in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, this matter must be inseparable from the Donglin Party, please rest assured that as long as the old slave is given a day, the old slave promises to find out about this matter." Cao Huachun gritted his teeth.

"Let's put this matter aside for a moment! I have other plans. Yang Su pondered for a moment and shook his head and said, the Donglin Party has become a force, not only thousands of officials in the court, but also Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism, big businessmen in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, big landlords, and wealthy elites in Nanjing.

Although Yang Su had no experience in politics in the previous two lives, he was well-informed as a national teacher of the Great Song Dynasty in his previous life, so he naturally would not make a big mistake because of a moment of anger.

"Yes, all the old slaves listen to the emperor" Cao Huachun nodded hurriedly, suppressing the careful thoughts in his heart.

"The emperor has been tired for a day and has not eaten a drop of water, I am afraid that you will be hungry, I ordered the imperial dining room to prepare the dishes, and now they are still hot, do you want to eat something now, Your Majesty?" Wang Chengen saw that the matter was finished and came up from the side.

"It just so happens that I'm hungry too, so let someone pass the meal!" Yang Su sat down at the table, he couldn't remember how long it had been since he had eaten a good meal, although he was a sword cultivator in the realm of Hedao before he died, he would not become an immortal, and of course he would still need to eat as a mortal in the flesh. It's a pity that since Lin'an City was broken by the Mongols, and then after the battle of Yashan, he was chased and killed by the gods of the sky, until he finally died in Shushan, when he couldn't even care about his life, let alone food, he was also a foodie before the crossing, and now he can finally eat hot food again, which makes Yang Su feel a little anxious.

After a while, Wang Chengen took four palace maids holding food boxes into the palace, and when the palace maids opened the food boxes, Yang Su found that the dignified Ming Emperor ate only eight kinds of dishes in one meal, which can be called extremely simple, and the materials used in the process were not dragon liver and phoenix marrow, but some ordinary ingredients.

Yang Su subconsciously looked at the dragon robe on his body, and sure enough, he didn't find it when he was standing, and now after sitting down, he found that the underwear under the bright dragon robe was actually full of patches, this is not the patch of Emperor Daoguang of the Qing Dynasty worth a thousand taels of silver, these patches were made up by Queen Zhou herself, usually Chongzhen didn't dare to walk too fast, not entirely because of paying attention to appearance, but more because he was afraid of walking fast and revealing the underwear full of patches under the dragon robe.

And the most important thing is to be strict with himself and lenient, unlike Emperor Daoguang, in order to prove that he governed the country well, he required the Manchu Dynasty to be "simple", which finally led to the rapid growth of the price of old clothes in the capital, which was higher than the price of two new clothes, and finally only rich officials could afford to wear old clothes.

"Hehe, I only know the emperor's poverty today. The life of the emperor's family during the New Year is not easy! Yang Su sighed with a smile.

"Bang!" The palace maids who were making vegetables knelt down in panic.

"Your Majesty, it's all the slave and maid, the slave and maid will go and let people change all the dishes now!" Wang Chengen poked his head and asked worriedly.

"It's okay, you go down, you don't have to wait here," Yang Su waved his hand to make the palace maid retreat, and said to Wang Chengen, "Let's do this first tonight." ”

The slave wrote it down. Your Majesty, the slave and maid will serve you dinner! Wang Chengen replied.

"Well, but don't be extravagant either." Yang Su is not like Chongzhen, who would have wronged himself like Chongzhen, as a sword immortal, who dared to make him uncomfortable in the past, he would slash it with one sword, if one sword could not solve it, then two swords!

"For you and Hua Chun, I don't like to eat alone"

"Your Majesty, don't be hungry without old slaves!" Cao Huachun refused repeatedly.

"Your Majesty, or the slave will invite Concubine Tian to come. Recently, there have been major events in the DPRK and China, you haven't seen Tian Guifei for some days, Tian Guifei must miss the emperor very much. Wang Chengen asked speculatively.

"Let you sit down and eat with me, just sit down, what I said is the rules!" Although Yang Su's words were fierce, his tone was very gentle: "By the way, today's events should not be known in the harem now!" ”

"No, Your Majesty, the old slave has given a death order, and now the old slave in the palace promises that even a fly will not want to enter or leave as long as there is no order." Cao Huachun got up and replied.

Yang Su nodded, he hadn't figured out what to do with the concubines and children left behind by Chongzhen, and now that there were too many things, he was not in the mood to pay attention to them, so these little things naturally had to be put back.
