With a light cough, the eunuch in charge suddenly had an itchy throat, and hurriedly blocked it with both hands, the sound was light enough, and the figure above shook for a moment, and Zhu Yuanzhang sat up straight and opened his eyes. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Your Majesty, the old slave deserves to die." When the eunuch in charge saw that he woke up the emperor, he knelt on the ground in fright, don't look at the prestige in the palace on weekdays, he is always a slave in front of Zhu Yuanzhang, and he must be extremely careful in everything he does.
"Get up, don't worry about you, I had a nightmare." Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes were slightly bloodshot, for the matter of Jinyiwei to think hard, Jinyiwei wants to move, how to move, how to grasp the size, if there are no spikes or branches and leaves on a branch, they are also threatened, Jinyiwei and Lanyu Those people never use, even if it is a thorn, it is also put by the royal family himself, and it will definitely not hurt himself unless it is absolutely necessary.
The eunuch in charge got up and stepped forward with the eunuch, "The emperor is too tired, so he will be cranky, it is better to go back and rest early, beware of hurting the dragon body." ”
Zhu Yuanzhang took a deep breath, "You don't want to hear what dreams I had?" ”
The eunuch in charge said: "The old slave doesn't dare, the emperor's business is a political matter, and the slave is just a eunuch, as long as he serves the emperor well." ”
Zhu Yuanzhang was happy, "You still know how to be a man and know how to be proportionate, if everyone can be like this, I don't have to worry every day." ”
"The old slave can be so praised by the emperor, and he will be blinded when he dies."
"What is this, unlucky."
"Phew, look at my mouth, the emperor doesn't know what to say and what not to say when he praises." The eunuch in charge took advantage of the situation and landed his palm on his face, just patting it gently, it was nothing more than coaxing the emperor to be happy, beating himself himself, who could really do it.
"Okay, I dreamed of Yan Jin."
"Lord Yan!" The eunuch in charge rolled his eyes, and knew in his heart that the emperor was worried about Yan Jin's affairs these days, and it was really the first time he saw the emperor so hesitant about one thing, the Hu Weiyong case and the Lanyu case were all senior members of the court and the central government, meritorious ministers, and in the end, they were all big hands with a wave of their hands, and they should be killed, without mercy, Zhu Yuanzhang's cold-blooded characteristics were undoubtedly revealed at that moment.
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded, "I saw that Yan Jin was holding a knife in his hand, the knife was full of blood, and there were dead people all over the ground, and those people were all people who wanted to be unfavorable to me." ”
"Your Majesty, such a dream should be auspicious, which means that if you live today, there will be no more turmoil." The eunuch in charge has stayed by Zhu Yuanzhang's side for many years, and he has long figured out Zhu Yuanzhang's preferences and temper, and what he says is equally pleasing to the ear.
Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head, the eunuch in charge peeked, first nodded, then shook his head, he really couldn't guess the emperor's thoughts, so he simply chose to shut up, as long as the emperor wanted to say, he would definitely say it, if he didn't want to say it, it would be annoying to ask.
"It's a pity that in the end, an arrow fell on Yan Aiqing." After Zhu Yuanzhang finished speaking, he pinched his forehead twice with his hand, and his tired nerves were relaxed.
"The emperor doesn't have to care, it's just a dream."
"I hope so."
Just when the master and servant were talking, the eunuch who held the lamp trotted to the main hall, these few nights the emperor wants to review the folds here, all of them are the lamps he lit himself, don't look at it is just an inconspicuous errand, there are many doorways inside, where the candle flame should be higher, where it needs to be brightened, when it should be extinguished, it must be just right, and nothing can go wrong.
"The emperor is inside?"
The eunuch who held the lamp asked in a low voice, and the little eunuch who was guarding the door hurriedly said: "Back to Gonggong Sun, the emperor is here, and Gonggong Liu is waiting inside." ”
"This old thing."
The eunuch who holds the lamp scolded in a low voice, the two entered the palace at almost the same time, and they have their own means to stand out among the many eunuchs, one is the lamp, the other is in charge, the status is different, and the competition in the dark also exists, the palace seems to be calm, the dark tide is turbulent behind the scenes, and all kinds of complex relationships are intertwined with each other, anyone who wants to survive in this kind of place must have enough backers.
After the death of Ma Dajiao, Zhu Yuanzhang decreed that after no longer standing, the entire harem was handed over to the favored two concubines to be in charge, which invisibly formed a battle between their respective eunuchs and palace maids.
The bloodless soft knife is even more brutal than the fight on the battlefield.
"The old slave has something important to meet the emperor." The eunuch in charge of the lamp came to the front and shouted, the eunuch in charge turned around, and happened to see the eunuch in charge of the lamp showing his head, his face sank, and the two of them did not deal with each other in private, in order to consolidate the forces in the palace, they each did their own things, especially this grandfather Sun, who had long been worried about the position of the eunuch in charge.
"Your Majesty, the slave will go and take a look."
Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand, his mind was still on that dream at this time, killing for many years, and thousands of people who died directly or indirectly in Zhu Yuanzhang's hands, but at this time he had such a strange dream.
The eunuch in charge walked out of it and coughed, "Grandpa Sun, it's still bright, why is it so early today!" ”
Gonggong Sun smiled: "Yo, it turns out that the person in charge is here, but I don't know if there are rules in this palace that the person who holds the lamp can't come out during the day?" ”
The eunuch in charge of the affairs was happy, "That's not true, the emperor is tired of reviewing and playing, and I'll talk about it tomorrow if I have something." ”
"This matter is very important, and you must see the emperor immediately." The eunuch in charge of the lamp knew that the emperor was inside, but it was the eunuch in charge who deliberately made things difficult and deliberately raised his voice.
"Let him in."
"Minion Command."
Zhu Yuanzhang's voice came from inside, and the eunuch in charge had to step back, and the eunuch in charge of the lamp stepped in, and pushed it with his left hand, which happened to be pushed in the waist and abdomen of the eunuch in charge, and the whole person's center of gravity was unstable and fell to the ground, and his head hit the pillar with a bang.
"Father-in-law Liu, why are you so careless."
The eunuch in charge grinned, the emperor was inside, and he could only suffer a dumb loss at this time, the whole person leaned there, raised his right hand, raised his orchid finger, and frowned, "You wait." ”
The eunuch in charge of the lamp was happy, and walked in with a proud face, knowing that although the eunuch in charge had more power than himself, he also did not dare to do anything to himself.
"The slave knocks on the emperor."
"Get up and speak."
The eunuch who held the lamp came to the front respectfully, and the playful smile on Fang Cai's face disappeared completely, "What do you see me?" ”
"Back to the emperor, Lord Patrol is waiting outside."
"Oh, but about the city defense?"
The eunuch who held the lamp shook his head, "I heard Lord Sun mention that the body was found in the Kaiping Palace. ”
"Kaiping Palace." Hearing the words Kaiping Palace, Zhu Yuanzhang instantly raised his head, in Zhu Yuanzhang's heart, the status of this brother with a different surname was far from being comparable to others.
"Who is so bold to make trouble in Kaiping Palace?"
"The slave doesn't know, I only heard Lord Sun of the city patrol mention that this person has an old relationship with the emperor, so he will rush to face the saint."
"Old!"
Zhu Yuanzhang frowned, there are not many people in the entire capital who can be called old people, "Have you asked who it is?" ”
The eunuch shook his head, "Lord Sun looks very anxious, but the slave forgot to ask." ”
"Let him in." Zhu Yuanzhang heard some slenderness, and he was also curious, so he simply figured it out.
"Yes."
The eunuch who held the lamp ran out quickly, although the scale of the palace in the Ming Dynasty could not be compared with the later ones, the distance from the inner city to the outer city was also continuous, and he needed to pass through several gates in a row, and he was already out of breath when he came to the periphery of the imperial city.
"The emperor decreed that the Lord of the City Patrol should enter the palace to face the saint."
This voice really works, false transmission of the holy decree is a big crime of raiding the family and destroying the door, even if it is a eunuch, there are always brothers and sisters of the same clan.
"Master Sun, please."
There was a voice from inside, and the gate of the imperial city opened, and the person who had been waiting in front of the gate stepped forward quickly, and happened to see the eunuch standing panting and holding the lamp, and came to the front, "There is Cousin Lao." ”
"This is not the place to talk." After speaking, the two of them kept moving forward, the eunuch who held the lamp had been in the palace for more than ten years, and the roads were extremely familiar, and when he came to a secluded place, he looked left and right and said in a low voice: "At this time, it is not trivial, the emperor has been upset about Lord Yan's affairs these days, you are patrolling the city, and such a big thing has happened, whether it is a blessing or a curse depends on your creation." ”
"Don't worry, cousin, I've been prepared."
"Let's go."
The two of them kept coming to the door of the main hall all the way, the eunuch in front of the lantern, went up the steps, climbed to the top and his legs were sore, looking at the majestic hall in front of him, he suddenly gave people a sense of awe, this is the imperial city, and the most powerful man in heaven and earth is sitting inside.
