Chapter 559: Ten Legatos (1)

After dealing with more than a dozen twists and turns, no one else stepped forward. Kublai Khan snorted angrily and turned to Cheng Yue and said, "King Zhennan is about to go east to Japan, is there anything to say?" ”

Cheng Yue coughed lightly and stood up and said, "Kick off the Great Khan, the minister has ten books to play today!" ”

"Ten copies?!" Not only Kublai Khan, but also the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were surprised!

Where did the king of Zhennan come from so many concerts!

Kublai Khan was interested, Cheng Yue came to Dadu for the first time, and only went on three folds successively, each of which can be called a shock, and this time it was ten books? Let's see what he says!

Kublai Khan said in a deep voice: "Play them one by one!" ”

Cheng Yue said: "Yes! First, the minister promised the Great Khan before, and after the minister's table clock was made, it would be dedicated to the Great Khan immediately. This time, the ministers brought a total of 300 table clocks, 100 of which were dedicated to the Great Khan, and the rest were to be given to the adults, and they were to be placed outside now. ”

Kublai Khan's dragon heart was overjoyed, and he laughed and said, "I saw it, that clock is extremely ingenious, and it is indeed a rare treasure, bring it in." ”

Yesterday, Kuo Kuolun and Ba Ba Han returned to the palace, nothing else matters, their two grandfather clocks are out of the limelight!

Inside and outside the palace, everyone flocked to the palace, and the dormitories of the two nobles were crowded with people to see the legendary table clock that could measure time. Anyone who saw it was amazed and amazed, and their eyes were reluctant to look away. When the crisp chime of the grandfather clock is heard, an earth-shattering cheer immediately erupts. Some queen concubines still looked at it again and again, repeatedly touching and not wanting to leave, and the envy in their eyes was completely undisguised.

Kublai Khan, Chabi, Nanbi and others also went to the sleeping palaces of Kuokuolun and Babahan to open their eyes, and after seeing it, they were amazed and added a sense of awe to Cheng Yue - accurate measurement of time is a big problem from ancient times to the present, and it was easily solved by Cheng Yue! This man is incredible. It's like a god and a Buddha descending into the world!

Kublai Khan was also surprised to notice that Kuo Kuolun and Babahan had become younger and more beautiful than before. The scenery that Kuo Kuolun and Ba Bahan are about to see along the way, the food they eat, and the things they are going to go to sea on a boat to play? After saying it again, Tuhuan rendered the prosperity and beauty of Lin'an on the side, as well as all kinds of new gadgets, which made all the concubines fascinated, and they were clamoring to go to the Southern Song Dynasty to play. In particular, Talahai, Nuhan, and Sabuhu were the most active. They have no children, they have nothing to worry about, they stay in the palace every day, and they are annoyed to death.

Kublai Khan couldn't resist their repeated requests, so he had to promise to have a chance to talk about it, and he was also very interested in the Southern Song Dynasty under Cheng Yue's rule.

Nangjiazhen told Kublai Khan that Cheng Yue had prepared a lot of clocks to dedicate to him, but the specific number was not said, so Kublai Khan was very much looking forward to it.

Cheng Yue turned around and walked out of the hall. After asking a few words to the chamberlain outside the palace, he found the table clock to be dedicated to Kublai Khan from among the three hundred table clocks, and personally carried it back to the temple.

Kublai Khan and Chabi looked forward to it on the throne, and it took a long time to see Cheng Yue holding a very solemn and elegant wooden box in both hands to the foot of the jade steps.

Cheng Yue didn't wait for Kublai Khan's permission, and climbed the jade steps in a few steps in a grand manner, but Kublai Khan and Chabi didn't care. The ministers also pretended not to see it.

Cheng Yue came to Kublai Khan and carefully opened the wooden box. The inside is wrapped in fine silk very securely. Cheng Yue untied the silk again, and finally revealed the table clock specially made for Kublai Khan.

The case and dial of the table clock are made of the finest white jade, which is crystal clear, smooth and warm. The numerals, hours, minutes and pendulum are cast in gold, and the dial is adorned with diamonds with Kublai Khan's family emblem and the Great Khan's Mongolian inscription. It is beautiful, far better than the grandfather clock of Kuokulun and Babahan.

Kublai Khan and Chabi were overjoyed, and the more they looked at it, the more they loved, and Kublai Khan gave a thumbs up and praised: "Good! This thing is very satisfying. Cheng Yue, your first piece is good! ”

Cheng Yue smiled: "Thank you for your compliment." Then he clapped his hands outside the hall, and many attendants carried all the 100 table clocks dedicated to Kublai Khan to the temple. Some of them have good names, such as chabi, nanbi and other queens and princesses, and those who don't have names are rewarded by Kublai Khan.

The box outside each table clock given to the civil and military officials also has the corresponding name and official position written on it, and it is placed outside the main hall, and it can be collected by itself after the next court, and the officials who are not qualified to receive it can only look at it.

Kublai Khan looked at the large number of clocks in front of him, smiled, and ordered the clocks to be sent to the harem, and then they would be rewarded separately after he went down to court.

After all the clocks were moved, Cheng Yue said: "Second, the minister refined two pianos for the Great Khan, and brought them into the palace today, does the Great Khan want to listen to the minister's performance?" ”

Kublai Khan had already learned about this from Kuo Kolun and Babahan, and said with a smile: "Very good, you can follow me to the Yingchun Pavilion after the next court, and play a song for me to listen to." Kuo Kuolun and Ba Ba Han both said that the piano was played with the sound of heaven, and the aftermath lingered for three days, and I was very curious. ”

Cheng Yue said: "The minister obeys orders." He immediately continued: "Third, the cake shop opened by the minister in Lin'an will set up a branch in Dadu and will open tomorrow." The minister specially made some cakes and brioche bread for the Great Khan to try today, and asked the Great Khan to smile. ”

Kublai Khan clapped his hands and laughed: "This Kuokuolun and Babahan also mentioned to me, saying that the cake is a delicacy in the world, and I am advised to try it." Come and send them to the harem for the time being. ”

Chabi was also overjoyed, yesterday she was salivated by Kuo Kolun, Ba Ba Han and Nang Ka Jin, and was waiting to taste it.

After the light thing was said, the smile on Cheng Yue's face gradually disappeared, his face became serious, and he said in a deep voice: "Fourth, the minister wants to talk about the Pingzhang political affairs of Huguang Province. ”

Yosumur was arrested and had not yet reported to the court, so everyone from Kublai Khan to civil and military officials was stunned.

King Zhennan, it's time to get down to business!

Kublai Khan was puzzled: "What happened to Yosumur?" Didn't he do a good job in the political affairs of the province? ”

Cheng Yue took out a copy of the recital he had already written from his arms, handed it over and said, "The minister is clear here, please read it to the Great Khan." ”

Kublai Khan spread out the folds and read them carefully. The more he read the back, the more angry he became, and he slapped the fold on the royal case, and said angrily: "Is Josumur really so evil? Why didn't I know before? Why didn't Lian Xixian tell me? ”

Cheng Yue said calmly: "The Great Khan, the land of Jingxiang, has been plagued by wars for decades, and all kinds of waste are waiting to be rebuilt, and in the early stage of governance, it is inevitable that there will be some expedient moves. Lian Pingzhang thought that Josumur would do the same, but later found out that this was not the case. After Lian Pingzhang vaguely learned of Yosumur's perverse behavior, out of caution, he informed Ahmad Pingzhang of the matter. Although Ahmad Pinjang had a good friendship with Josumur, he was still unwilling to shield him. Ahmad Pingzhang came to avoid suspicion, and secondly, he didn't want to listen to just one side, so Ahma Pingzhang sent a letter to the minister, asking the minister to investigate Yosumur's crime with the advantage of the location. The minister happened to find a witness in Suzhou who confirmed Ahma Pingzhang's account, and the minister felt that the matter was very important, so he ordered this person to send the minister's letter to Lian Pingzhang, and ordered him to thoroughly investigate Yosumur, and if the evidence was conclusive, he could escort him to Dadu to ask the Great Khan for ruling. ”

As soon as Cheng Yue's voice fell, Ahma hurriedly stepped forward and said: "What His Royal Highness the King of Zhennan said is true, the minister misused the traitor, and he was ashamed of the Great Khan, only by bringing him to justice can he atone for his previous sins." ”

Kublai Khan glared at Ahma angrily, ignored him, and said to Cheng Yue with a pale face: "You have all been on the show, do you still need to say the result?" What about people? I'm going to interrogate it myself. ”

Cheng Yue said: "The minister went out to ask just now, and the person has been escorted outside the palace gate, and the Great Khan can ask at any time." ”

Kublai Khan snorted coldly and said, "Bring him in." "From beginning to end, I didn't think there was anything wrong with Cheng Yue's order to arrest people. Kublai Khan advocated simplicity, and he didn't want to take care of many things, as long as he didn't hide it from him, so Cheng Yue and Lian Xixian worried in vain.

Zhao Dingying and two of his own soldiers waited in front of the palace gate for a long time, and couldn't help but feel worried, hoping that the king of Zhennan could successfully persuade the Great Khan, otherwise his credit would become a crime.

Josumur saw his uneasiness, sneered and was just about to make a sarcastic remark, when he suddenly saw a chamberlain walk out of the palace gate and said, "The Great Khan has a decree, pass you in, go quickly." ”

Zhao Dingying saw that the waiter's eyes were very calm when he looked at him, but when he looked at Yosumur, he showed a sense of disgust, and his heart was overjoyed - the great thing has been accomplished! Shaking his spirits, he pointed at Yosumur and shouted angrily: "Yosumur, you are heinous, and you cannot escape the blame, if you don't enter the palace now, when will you wait!" ”

Josumur smiled bitterly, sighed gloomily, walked into the palace gate with heavy steps, and was taken by the chamberlain all the way to Kublai Khan and Chabi in front of the Daming Palace.

Zhao Dingying was facing the saint for the first time, and he had to see Cheng Yue, the ruler of the Great Song Dynasty, at the same time, and the nervousness in his heart can be imagined. When he entered the palace, he immediately saw Kublai Khan and Chabi standing on top of him in gorgeous clothes, and another handsome young man with short hair looked at him with a smile not far in front of him, except for Cheng Yue, the king of Zhennan, there would be no one else. Hurriedly "poofed", bowed to the ground, and shouted: "The minister Zhao Dingying should knock to see the Great Khan, the Great Queen, and His Royal Highness the King of Zhennan." Josumur also fell to his knees.

Kublai Khan didn't remember who he was for a while, and asked, "Are you a vassal of the Southern Song Dynasty?" ”

Zhao Dingying sighed secretly and said: "Yes, the ministers heard that the Great Khan blessed the people, so they defected from the Southern Song Dynasty. ”

Kublai Khan said again: "Are you a clan? ”

Zhao Dingying stubbornly said: "Yes, the subordinate is the Southern Song Dynasty clan." ”

Kublai Khan thought about it in his mind, and finally remembered a person, and said, "Did you flee from Sichuan to Lian Xixian to surrender?" I remember such a person. ”

Zhao Dingying said embarrassedly: "The ministers have long admired Lian Pingzhang's profound virtues, and he knows that Lian Pingzhang is known as the Great Khan's trust, so he surrenders to sincerity across the border." (To be continued.) )
