Chapter Seventy-Two: Summoned by the Son of Heaven
When Zhong Yu returned home with two beautiful women, he found a gorgeously decorated carriage parked in front of his house. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Two tall white horses with no variegated fur pulled a large and spacious carriage, the four sides of which were carved in relief, and the crimson painting was like a dragon. The sun is in the sky, and the sunlight is shining on this carriage, making people feel as if there are thousands of golden lights.
Seeing such a gorgeous carriage parked at the door of his house, Zhong Yu knew that it must be an important person visiting, and he couldn't help but be curious, he really wanted to meet the owner of this gorgeous carriage, and hurriedly entered the house.
As soon as Zhong Yu stepped into the courtyard gate, he saw Tie Zhu hurriedly greet him and said, "Son, you are back, there is a father-in-law from the house, saying that he is from the palace!" ”
When Zhong Yu heard that the palace was coming, he couldn't help but suddenly think, no wonder this car was so beautiful, it turned out to be the royal car in the palace!
When Zhong Yu walked into the flower hall in the front yard, he saw a eunuch sitting next to his elm coffee table, crossing Erlang's legs, drinking tea very leisurely. His eyes narrowed, his right index finger curled slightly, and he knocked on the elm coffee table a few times from time to time. Zhong Yu looked at the eunuch as if he was humming a little song, and seemed to be very interested in the elm coffee table.
If you like this coffee table, move away, let's change to Huang Tan immediately, Zhong Yu said secretly.
When Zhong Yu got closer, it turned out that this eunuch was still an old acquaintance, and it was the chief eunuch who was the celebrant who was sentenced when Zhong Yu was punished by the court rod that day.
When the big eunuch saw Zhong Yu coming in, he didn't stand up, but just looked at Zhong Yu with a smile and said, "Yo, Zhong Gongzi is already well now." ”
Zhong Yu hurriedly smiled: "Thanks to my father-in-law's blessing, it's already great!" ”
The big eunuch still looked like he was smiling and groaning, pulled the corners of his mouth silently, and said, "Is Zhong Gongzi praising our family, or is it harming our family?" As he spoke, he glanced at Zhong Yu meaningfully and said: "Zhang Yong and Wei Bin, those two who have practiced martial arts, have a good physical foundation, but they still can't get out of bed while lying down, but Zhong Gongzi is recovering very quickly!" ”
Uh, did this dead eunuch see that the group of brocade-clothed lieutenants had released water during their execution and came to find trouble? Isn't this dead eunuch so boring? Besides, he has no enmity with him.
Zhong Yu hurriedly changed his painful face, sat down on another seat next to his elm coffee table, rubbed his buttocks, sighed and said, "Oh, I didn't go out and walked a few steps, this butt hurt badly, it seems that this injury is still not good!" ”
The big eunuch glanced at Zhong Yu with a smile, and said slowly: "Actually, our family doesn't want Dongchang and Jinyi Wei to fight back and forth!" ”
Zhong Yu couldn't help but be stunned, do you want Dongchang and Jinyiwei to fight, it's about my birds?
But then Zhong Yu understood that the dead eunuch was afraid that he had guessed that he had a close relationship with Jinyiwei, and this was to show that he had no hostility! Thinking about it further, looking at the posture of this dead eunuch, I am afraid that the status of the celebrant is not low, and there is no need to signal to a small person at all! I'm afraid that this is to signal to the commander of his own brocade guard through himself!
Zhong Yu remembered that he hadn't asked the name of the big eunuch yet, so he hurriedly pretended to be respectful and asked, "I haven't asked my father-in-law for your surname yet!" ”
"Hehe, what else do the eunuchs have a noble surname, our family Li Rong!"
When I heard Li Rong's name, I immediately understood the joints.
When he was in the East Palace, Zhong Yu listened to Gu Dayong talk about the main figures in the inner court. This Li Rong is one of the two eunuchs who are the celebrant eunuchs. Since the Ming Dynasty, it has been the master of ceremonies and eunuchs who have supervised the East Factory, and now the eunuch Wang Yue is old and unable to manage things, so he appointed the eunuch Fan Ting as the eunuch of the East Factory. This Li Rong is afraid that he is not willing to succumb to Fan Ting, so he has this signal.
Thinking about the joints, Zhong Yu is reluctant to mix with these complicated power struggles, his own little person mixes indiscriminately, and he is afraid that he will be crushed if he is not careful, it is safer to stay away!
As soon as Zhong Yu thought of this, he hurriedly changed the topic and asked, "I don't know what Gonggong Li is doing when he is in the cold house?" ”
Li Rong saw that Zhong Yu did not respond to his signal, nor did he break it, he still looked like he was smiling, and said with a smile: "Hey, you see that our family and Zhong Gongzi hit it off at first sight, and they talked about it, but forgot about the business!" The emperor summoned Zhong Gongzi into the palace to see the driver, and now it is estimated that the Wu Dynasty should almost be dispersed, so Zhong Gongzi will enter the palace with our family! ”
Zhong Yu wanted to rush home for lunch, but the emperor Lao Tzu summoned him, and he could only be hungry again!
Why do you have to go hungry every time you go to see the emperor? Could it be that the emperor deliberately wants to starve his body and skin in order to hone himself, and use himself as a pillar in the future!
Thinking of his hungry body, Zhong Yu thought of the little prince of Hengwang's mansion again, hehe, I don't know how the little prince's mind is honed, well, how is the foundation built? When I have time to go back to Qingzhou, I will beat him a few more times and help him practice his skin. Alas, after all, the master and apprentice are a game, and it would be unkind not to help him practice his skin!
In this short moment, Zhong Yu thought of teaching the little prince boxing from being hungry, and his thinking diverged very quickly!
Seeing Zhong Yu in a daze, Li Rong couldn't help but ask, "What, what else does Zhong Gongzi have to do?" The emperor is almost in the afternoon! ”
"Uh...... No! Hearing Li Rong's question, Zhong Yu came back to his senses.
"No, let's go with us over there!"
Zhong Yu followed Li Rong into the royal car in the palace.
As soon as he entered the carriage, Zhong Yu immediately smelled a faint musk fragrance in the carriage, and then looked at the decoration in the carriage, cashmere upholstery, Persian blankets, and even the curtains were fine satin, which was very different from the carriage of ordinary rich families.
As soon as Zhong Yu sat down, the sound of the wheels turning came out.
The royal car walked on the street very smoothly, and did not feel the slightest bump. Zhong Yu leaned comfortably on the goose down cushion, half sitting and half lying, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart: Emperor Lao Tzu just will enjoy it, this car is called a comfortable one, and when we have money, we will definitely find someone to build one.
Xiaowei Hutong is not far from the Forbidden City, and Zhong Yu feels that this extremely comfortable carriage has not been done enough, so he has already come to the noon gate. Zhong Yu reluctantly got out of the car with Li Rong in front of the noon gate!
The golden sunlight sprinkled on the glazed tiles of the various palaces, making the entire Forbidden City seem to be shrouded in golden light.
Zhong Yu's waist card walking in the palace has been withdrawn with the deprivation of the official position, Li Rong took out his waist card for the Han generals who guarded the door to test, and announced the emperor's command to summon Zhong Yu, and the Han general who guarded the door let Zhong Yu enter the palace.
Through the doorway, the eyes are unobstructed, the bluestone floor tiles have been extended to the far distance, and in front of it is the small bridge carved in white jade, as far as the eye can see, you can see that the palace is faintly built on the high platform of white marble. The high temple can't help but put endless pressure on the people under your feet.
This is the center of the Ming Dynasty, the center of power, how many people in order to enter here, some cut jj, some study hard, and some people fight to the death, just to have a foothold on the jade steps under the Danxi.
This is the first time that Zhong Yu has seriously looked at the Forbidden City, standing here, and suddenly a burst of pride swelled in his heart: I, Zhong Yu, will one day also occupy a place on the imperial steps under this Danqi!
Zhong Yu followed this Li Rong all the way, crossed the Jinshui Bridge, bypassed one magnificent palace after another, and went straight to the Qianqing Gate. Walk through the Qianqing Gate and come to the gate of the Qianqing Palace in the second half of the Forbidden City.
Zhong Yu couldn't help but muttered in his heart: I said earlier that I came to the Qianqing Palace, how close is it to go directly to Donghua Gate, why do we have to pass through half of the Forbidden City? Could it be that the emperor summoned his courtiers and still had a rule on which gate to enter the palace from?
When Zhong Yu used to be a companion to the prince, he entered the palace from Donghua Gate every day, so he naturally knew that it was much closer to Qianqing Palace from Donghua Gate.
Outside the Qianqing Palace, the Han generals of the guards stood quietly one by one with bright clothes and armor, holding halberds and swords, and occasionally a few small chamberlains with hooks in and out, and their footsteps were also gentle.
Zhong Yu looked at this posture and said in his heart: It seems that the emperor is in court, and this time there is no need to wait so long hungry!
"Zhong Gongzi and stay here for a while, let's go and reply." Li Rong gave Zhong Yu an order, then entered the Qianqing Palace, and after a while, he went and returned, and said to Zhong Yu: "Zhong Gongzi, go in quickly, the emperor has summoned you." ”
