Chapter 174: Talking to Emperor Xian
In the palace hall of Hongnong, Zhao Yue and Qin Feng have already come to the palace to stand firm, and dozens of personal guards are not allowed to enter, so they can only stand not far from the palace to guard, facing the bright moonlight, showing the brave side of the warriors, and the sky is full of stars, but they are not in the mood to look up.
Wang He ordered the Imperial Forest soldiers to go to the periphery of the palace, and no army was allowed to enter, even if they broke through on the opposite side, they could fight directly without sending people to inquire about it. The entire palace is like a battle fortress firmly surrounded by a group of soldiers. In a moment of great urgency, this is about to become the focus.
In the hall, Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty's lieutenant servants had already begun to order a group of eunuchs to hold the lanterns in the hall, looking at the lanterns that emitted orange-red light one after another, Zhao Yue instantly felt a kind of warmth.
Because of the urgency of time, the copper lamps in the hall have been completely removed, and at this time, the little eunuchs had to carry lanterns and stand on both sides to become the lantern bearers of the main hall.
Zhao Yue saw that the Zhongchang attendant, who was dressed in elegant clothes and wearing a unique official hat, had ordered everything, and was standing under the throne of Emperor Han Xian, waiting for the emperor to come forward, and was ready to come forward to chat with him.
Nakatsune looked very kind, he should be around fifty years old, and his face was already wrinkled. In Zhao Yue's eyes, the people who can serve the emperor during this period must not be as simple as they seem on the surface.
Zhao Yue walked over with a calm step, and said softly: "Lord Zhongchang, dare to ask how to call you?" ”
When the Zhongchang attendant heard this, he was startled at first, and hurriedly bowed down and said modestly: "Lord Zhao Yue, you are too humble to the old slave, who doesn't know your outstanding merits. It is all your credit to restore Luoyang, which was burned down by Dong Zhuo. ”
Zhao Yue smiled slightly and said: "My credit lies with the people, and the credit of the Zhongchang Servant lies with the emperor, the Han Dynasty has been in constant wars, but the emperor can be safe and sound." The diet and daily life are still in accordance with the regulations, thanks to the middle and regular attendants. ”
Zhong Chang Shi smiled happily, in this period, very few people in power in the imperial court can take care of the vanity of a eunuch, Zhao Yue did it, he felt that this was a different person, and he should be different from Dong Zhuo and Wang Yun.
"Thank you Lord Zhao Yue for your reputation, the old slave's surname is Bai, and his name is Ying. Lord Zhao can call the old slave Bai Ying in the future. Bai Ying bowed again, and replied politely with a group of kindness.
"Lord Bai, I still need a lot of help from you in the future." Zhao Yue clenched her fists, and as soon as her words fell, she heard the little eunuch on the side shouting: "The emperor has ascended to the court!" ”
When Zhao Yue heard this, she hurriedly stood back in the center of the main hall, next to Qin Feng. Waiting for the appearance of Emperor Han Xian.
Emperor Han Xian followed the voice and walked out, Zhao Yue had just entered Luoyang as King Chen Liu a few years ago. I once had a relationship with him on the street. In the past few years, the young emperor has also changed a lot, he is taller and more handsome, but Zhao Yue can no longer feel the clarity and simplicity of the year from his eyes. Some are not mature, but a kind of turbidity and occlusion.
Thinking about it, Dong Zhuo and Wang Yun have been in power for the past few years, undoubtedly treating him as a puppet in the palm of their hands, and will only impose their ideas and decisions on him. It doesn't inspire him to think for himself at all, so he will only become more and more stupid and less intelligent than his peers.
The emperor ascended the throne with dignity and grace, followed by two beautiful maids, and behind the throne was a picture of the Han Dynasty. When Zhao Yue saw that picture, she didn't know why in her heart, she felt a little funny, probably because she felt that the Han Dynasty was constantly fighting, and the only area that she really controlled at this time was Hongnong, and it was also nominally controlled.
Following the emperor, there was also a heroic general, dressed to look more gorgeous than Wang He's, especially his delicate helmet, there was also a bright feather inserted, Zhao Yue guessed in his heart, this should be the commander of Emperor Han Xian's other pro-army Yulin Army, but Zhao Yue came here at the beginning of the month, and no one knew him.
Zhao Yue stood on the large hall covered with a crimson carpet, thinking about what to say, but who expected Emperor Han Xian to speak first.
"Zhao Aiqing, I have heard of you, and I am very happy to hear that you have managed Luoyang in an orderly manner." Emperor Han Xian seemed to be speaking on his own for the first time without anyone affecting his thinking, "The other ministers of the court are currently taking refuge in their respective mansions because of the war in Hongnong, so there are only a few court officials by my side at present, and I hope Zhao Aiqing will not dislike it." ”
Zhao Yue knelt down and pressed her forehead to the ground, and Qin Feng also quickly knelt down.
"Your Majesty, the minister came to Hongnong, in order to save the thief, how can I dislike it, Your Majesty is the Ninety-Five Emperor of my Han, Zhao Yue can see Your Majesty in person, it is really my glory, and I hope that Your Majesty can trust me, so that I can guarantee Your Majesty's safety."
When Emperor Han Xian heard this, he blinked his eyes and said, "I haven't decided on major national affairs for a long time, everything is up to Situ Wang Aiqing, how is Wang Aiqing now?" ”
Zhao Yue was silent for a long time before she raised her head and said thoughtfully: "Your Majesty, with all due respect, Lord Wang Yun's Situ Mansion may have been attacked by the traitor Zhang Duan at this time, and Lord Wang's life is in danger." ”
Emperor Han Xian sighed softly and said: "Zhao Aiqing, I'm not afraid of you being angry, I heard Wang Aiqing say before that you and Zhang Duan both came to attack the city, in order to take the rule of my Han Dynasty, but like this?" ”
Before Zhao Yue could speak, Shang Shu Ding Guan answered on the side: "Your Majesty, it must be Wang Yun's nonsense and framing the loyalty of my Han Dynasty, Zhao Taishou came this time with the jade seal of my Han Dynasty for a hundred years, in order to present treasures to Your Majesty, how can it be as Wang Yun said." ”
When Zhao Yue heard this, she first smiled, and then continued to answer respectfully: "Your Majesty, what Ding Shangshu said is true, Zhao Yue heard that the traitor Zhang Duan had made a comeback, intending to avenge the dead traitor Dong Zhuo, so he led the loyal soldiers of Luoyang to come here to rescue him, and by the way, he presented the jade seal that Zhao Yue had obtained by luck before. ”
Emperor Han Xian nodded suddenly and said, "So that's the case, Zhao Aiqing, you are really loyal, you raise your head and let me see what you look like." ”
The holy will was unbearable, Zhao Yue hesitated for a while, and had to raise her head.
"Zhao Aiqing, your appearance makes me feel familiar, as if I had seen it a few years ago, and I still have an impression in my mind." Emperor Han Xian's words made Zhao Yue feel that this was not an emperor who knew nothing at all. (To be continued.) )
