Chapter 768: Let's Go Together
Over there, Shi Zhongchen, who had been sitting under the pillar, spoke, he slowly stood up from the pier and said, "Your Majesty, if you want to follow the old slave, you have to go to relax, where is it not possible, why go to the nunnery?" Isn't it nice to be in the Imperial Garden, and now that the weather is still a little cool, don't go far! ”
Li Zhi frowned, glanced at Wang Ping'an, said to him, lowered his voice, and said, "He is old and confused now, and sometimes he can sleep while sitting." ”
Wang Ping'an nodded slightly, in fact, the current weather is neither hot nor cold, just right. But Shi Zhongchen said that the weather was still a little cold, which showed that his body was starting to weaken.
Shi Zhongchen walked over slowly and said, "Your Majesty, you said that the old slave is confused?" In fact, the old slave is just lacking in blood and energy, but he is like a mirror in his heart, and he is not confused! ”
Li Zhi sighed and said strangely: "Loyal minister, did you hear what I said just now?" I'm talking in a small voice, isn't it, disease-free? ”
Wang Ping'an nodded hurriedly and said, "Yes, the emperor's voice is not loud, and even the ministers almost didn't hear it." Uncle Shi is old and strong, and he can hear what Emperor Zecai said, which is even stronger than his little nephew. ”
Shi Zhongchen walked up to him, shook his head and said: "Where did the old slave hear what the emperor just said, just when he saw that the emperor and Wuzhi said something in a low voice, the old slave guessed, it must be that the old slave is confused!" ”
Wang Ping'an and Li Zhi laughed together. This Shi Zhongchen was also a figure who was surprised, and the difference between him and the eldest grandson Wuji and others was that he was a eunuch in the palace, while the eldest grandson Wuji and others were courtiers. Shi Zhongchen is an old fox, so old that even his hair is white, he only needs to look at other people's expressions, he can know what others are thinking, nine out of ten guesses.
Li Zhi smiled and said: "Loyal ministers, I want to go to Ganye Temple with Wu Disease, to see those concubines of the first emperor, they have all become nuns, blame the pitiful, so I go to condole, it is also considered to be filial piety, no matter how they say, they are also my elders." ”
Shi Zhongchen glanced at Li Zhi, and then at Wang Ping'an, he remembered that Wu Meiniang's matter was coming, but in his heart, he always thought that Wu Meiniang was dead and the great disaster had been eliminated.
Shi Zhongchen said: "Do your filial piety, but don't delay there for too long, let outsiders gossip, then you can't do it." The emperor has not been on the throne for a long time, and the ministers of the DPRK and China have not attached themselves to the people, so they should be careful in everything. ”
Li Zhi snorted and said with a smile: "How can there be outsiders, what can there be, how can someone gossip!" ”
Shi Zhongchen waved his hand and said: "Your Majesty, you have forgotten about Li Ke, the chapter about the conquest of him is still on the case, why did you forget him?" Which ministers in the court secretly hooked up with him, will they take advantage of this matter to spread rumors to slander the emperor, this is all a matter of maybe! ”
Li Zhi looked at Wang Ping'an and said, "What the loyal minister said is right, what do you think about the disease-free?" If it were you, what would you do to spread rumors? ”
Wang Ping'an hurriedly shook his head and said: "The minister is loyal and honest, and he is also a reckless and bold person. When it comes to rumors, the minister doesn't know how to make them at all, I don't know where to make them! The emperor still asks Chief Shi! ”
Shi Zhongchen said with a smile: "No disease, our family is especially good at spreading rumors?" He thought about it for a while, and didn't stop it anymore, but said: "Your Majesty, if you go outside the city tomorrow, it's just to avoid the government, there is no need for this." By the way, the old slave seems to have heard that there is a horse farm near the Ganye Temple, but I wonder if the horse farm is still there? ”
As soon as he mentioned the horse farm, Li Zhi and Wang Ping'an looked at each other. If this was someone else, Wang Ping'an would immediately shout loudly, and Li Zhi would have to turn his face. However, Shi Zhongchen, who is speaking now, was the big inner in the palace when the Xuanwu Gate changed. Without Shi Zhongchen, whether Li Shimin can become the emperor is still between the two theories, and Li Zhi, the new emperor, is even more uncertain, such a great hero is an elder who watched Li Zhi grow up, Wang Ping'an did not dare to reprimand, and Li Zhi was embarrassed to turn his face!
Li Zhi was silent, with Wang Ping'an here, let Wang Ping'an deal with it, whether he was a prince in the past or an emperor now, anyway, if there are any difficult things to do, difficult things to say, all of them will be handed over to Wang Ping'an to handle and say, there is nothing wrong with it.
Wang Ping'an stiffened his head and said, "Raising horses? What kind of place is that, I haven't heard of it, Ganye Temple is a place for monks to practice, if there is a horse farm nearby, it smells so bad, and it's noisy! ”
Shi Zhongchen laughed dryly twice and said, "That's our family's mistake!" People are old, confused, and have a poor memory, and it's always easy to get confused! "Just now Li Zhi said that he was old and confused, and he was still unhappy, but now he took the initiative to say that he was confused.
Wang Ping'an looked at Shi Zhongchen and thought, "You are always old, but you are confused but not necessarily!" He said: "Uncle Shi doesn't have to worry, the little nephew will prescribe you a medicine to replenish qi, as soon as you eat, your body will be fine, and you will be able to walk like flying!" ”
As he spoke, he took a pen and wrote a prescription and handed it to Shi Zhongchen. Shi Zhongchen took the prescription, put it in his arms, and said, "Thank you for not being sick, you are still thinking about our family!" He said to Li Zhi again: "Your Majesty, the old slave takes a leave of absence, decoction and drinks!" ”
Li Zhi hurriedly said: "Okay, loyal ministers, go quickly, if you are not feeling well, you can just rest, and let the patriot be on duty!" ”
Shi Zhongchen saluted, turned around and went out. But as he walked out, he thought: "I'm old and don't have the energy to preside over the affairs of the inner palace, but it's okay for him to love the country." In the future, the position of the chief manager will be inherited by patriotism. But when I was the chief manager, there was a patriotic echo, so after the patriotic became the chief manager, who would echo him? Well, Mi Xiaomiao's guy is good, you can test it and see if he is suitable. ”
Seeing that Shi Zhongchen was gone, Li Zhi said: "Alas, I am really troubled! Although the loyal minister is loyal and does things properly, after all, he is old, and I want him to retire in the palace and not come to duty in the future, but I am embarrassed to open this mouth. No disease, you can find an opportunity in the future, knock on the side, hint at it, and the loyal ministers will understand. ”
Wang Ping'an nodded, Li Shimin's era has passed, once the son of heaven and a courtier, the chief manager of the inner palace should also be replaced, this is a normal personnel transfer, not to do anything to Shi Zhongchen, after all, with Li Shimin's death, the inner palace belongs to Shi Zhongchen's era, and it has also passed.
Li Zhi said: "No disease, then when will you come to me tomorrow?" Is it too early to come, let's go? But if I go to the morning court tomorrow, I'm afraid that those people will come to ask again, and I'll be annoyed to death. ”
Wang Ping'an said: "Then, tomorrow the minister will come early?" Otherwise, the minister went to Xuanwu Gate to wait, after the emperor got up, he didn't have to eat breakfast, he went directly to Xuanwu Gate, let's go out together and have breakfast outside the city. But Your Majesty, you'd better wear casual clothes, just make a private visit to Weifu! ”
Li Zhi smiled: "It's good to have a private visit with a microserver, I haven't had a private visit with a microserver for a long time." Then it's decided, let's see you tomorrow at Xuanwu Gate. ”
The two of them made an appointment on the time and place, and Wang Ping'an retired and returned to his Guogong Mansion. When he returned to the Guogong Mansion, it was already dark, and Ouyang Li and the others had already returned. They told Wang Ping'an about the day.
Wang Ping'an was surprised when he heard that Wu Meiniang had moved to the stone room next to the back mountain gate. Things happened like this, Wu Meiniang lived in the stone room, and then Li Zhi had a private meeting, but it was so convenient!
Wang Ping'an told Ouyang Li about Li Zhi's visit to Ganye Temple tomorrow, and asked him to prepare in advance, don't make an assassin or something, it won't be interesting!
After dinner, Wang Ping'an wrote a letter to the Wang couple in Gyeongju in the study, telling his parents that he had received the seal of Menxia Province and became one of the prime ministers, and that the matter had been completed and that they could enter Beijing on a later date. The mother of the father of the Prime Minister Liao Guogong, this title is enough for the old couple to brag about for a while!
There was no word for the night, and the next day dawned.
Wang Ping'an got up early, and after washing, he put on a light stand-up collar beard suit, rode on a white dragon horse, and rushed to Xuanwu Gate with a group of guards.
After a short time, they came to the Hong Lim Gate, just in time to open the city gate, they went out of the Hong Lim Gate and went around to the Xuanwu Gate.
While walking, Wang Ping'an turned around and said: "Things are too busy, I actually forgot not to close the gate of Chang'an, and I didn't mention it to the emperor. ”
Ouyang Li said: "The master is too busy with Wu Meiniang's affairs to be busy, how can he still take care of the affairs of the city gate." Besides, there is no urgency in this matter, and it is too late to talk to the emperor today! ”
Wang Ping'an said: "This is also true. While talking, he came to the Xuanwu Gate after a while.
Xuanwu Gate is the back gate of the palace, the most important place, idle people are not allowed to approach. Wang Ping'an was wearing civilian clothes, so he didn't go to the door, he wanted to save trouble, just wait far away.
But as soon as he arrived at Xuanwu Gate, he saw the drawbridge put down, and a general on horseback came out of it, and the general was far away, so he smiled and said: "Wang Xiangye, the last general Xue Rengui, we haven't seen each other for a long time, have you always been good?" ”
Wang Ping'an sighed, hurriedly dismounted, hurried to catch up, and said, "It turned out to be General Xue, rude and rude." "Actually, he had seen Xue Rengui before, but no one introduced him, and no one mentioned it, so he saw it, and he really didn't have the right number, I don't know if this person is the famous Xue Rengui.
As soon as the two of them said hello, they saw another person galloping out of it, and it turned out to be the eldest grandson Wuji. The eldest grandson Wuji shouted: "No disease, you bastard boy, you caused the old man to get up early, and he didn't even eat breakfast!" ”
Wang Ping'an was taken aback, why did the eldest grandson Wuji also come? Even in casual clothes!
Two more people came out later, one was Fang Xuanling and the other was Chu Suiliang. Both men were also on horseback and dressed in civilian clothes.
There was another sound of horses' hooves, and a few more people came out of the Xuanwu Gate, the first one was Emperor Li Zhi, and he was followed by Mi Xiaomiao, as well as Meng Datian and Meng Xiaotian brothers!
