Chapter 135: Audience
~~~~~~~
The night in Jingshi was a little cold, the closer to the imperial city, the less crowded it was, but the wider the streets, this kind of cold and uncontrollable coercion combined, even Li Yuanqing's heart began to be a little nervous. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Today, Li Yuanqing and the three of them have just settled, and before they have time to rest, the little emperor of the apocalypse is so anxious that he wants the three of them to meet, which can also be seen that although the little emperor of the apocalypse is young, he should be very concerned about the affairs of Liaodi.
Soon, the red-brick and blue-tiled imperial city compound had appeared in the distant field of vision, Li Yuanqing slowly exhaled a breath of turbidity, adjusted his breathing, and tried his best to restrain his emotions.
This is like an interview in the future, people will always be inevitably nervous, but as long as they get through, the results are absolutely rich.
Li Yuanqing secretly glanced at Zhang Pan and Chen Zhong beside him, the two of them were no better than Li Yuanqing, their faces were solemn, as if they were facing a great enemy.
Li Yuanqing suddenly smiled slightly, imperial power. This kind of thing, even if you are a traverser, but in the face of this deep-rooted thing, you still can't avoid vulgarity.
Soon, after bypassing a few white jade bridges, the group came to a magnificent city gate, and the leading little eunuch showed a token to the guards, whispered a few words, and the guards quickly opened the city gate and let them go.
Li Yuanqing and the three of them, following behind seven or eight little eunuchs, entered inside.
Inside was not as general as Li Yuanqing imagined, the space suddenly became wider, and it was still a high wall.
The leading little eunuch carried the lantern and turned directly to the road on the right, and without saying much, Li Yuanqing and the three of them could only hurriedly follow closely behind.
In later generations, Li Yuanqing also went to the Forbidden City, but unfortunately, it was just a casual view, and could not explore the details, and the Forbidden City in later generations was left over from the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and the imperial city at this time was the imperial city of the Ming Dynasty.
At first, Li Yuanqing could barely judge the direction by feeling, but as he turned around, Li Yuanqing's mind was thinking about the words of the face saint again, and even the sense of direction disappeared.
The three of them walked for half an hour, and finally came to the outside of a palace.
The leading little eunuch turned to the three of them: "Generals, you wait here for a while." The miscellaneous family went in to report. ā
Li Yuanqing and the three hurriedly nodded yes.
Li Yuanqing also secretly regretted that the matter was too sudden, and on his side, he had no preparations at all, and he did not prepare gifts for these little eunuchs, so it was difficult to find out the news.
Now, I can only be like a puppet, at their mercy.
The cold wind blew, blowing the trees outside the door swaying back and forth, a few little eunuchs didn't speak, and Li Yuanqing couldn't speak, so they could only secretly make eye contact to stabilize each other's confidence.
After a while, the leading little eunuch came out, he cleared his throat and said, "The emperor has a decree to meet the three generals Xuanzhangpan, Chen Zhong, and Li Yuanqing." ā
As he spoke, he smiled and said, "Three generals, please?" ā
Li Yuanqing and the three hurriedly followed him carefully.
Entering the gate of this palace, there is a large courtyard, rockery pavilion, and the space is suddenly spacious.
There were red lanterns hanging on both sides, and the warm firelight made Li Yuanqing and the three of them feel a little warmth in their hearts.
In a moment, the three of them followed behind the little eunuch, bypassed a rockery, passed through two corridors, and came to the door of the palace.
Li Yuanqing glanced at it quietly, this should not be the main entrance, but the side door.
The little eunuch turned around and smiled: "Three generals, please." ā
"Thank you, father-in-law." Zhang Pan smiled and bowed, and walked inside carefully, followed by Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong.
Entering the main hall, I went around a few rooms, and came to a side hall, several braziers on both sides were being burned crackling, the red firelight, dispelling the chill outside, in front of the bookcase on one side, a big eunuch in a purple python robe, was under the lamplight, reviewing several thick stacks of music.
The little eunuch hurriedly came to the big eunuch and said in a low voice, "Father-in-law, they are here." ā
The big eunuch nodded, but did not make any other moves, but continued to review the chapters, and the little eunuch hurriedly stood beside him respectfully.
After a while, about a quarter of an hour, the big eunuch put down the pen in his hand and looked at Li Yuanqing and the three with a smile, "You are the three generals Zhang Pan, Chen Zhong, and Li Yuanqing, right?" ā
Li Yuanqing and the three of them hurriedly kowtowed and saluted.
The big eunuch smiled, "Get up." The emperor is waiting for you inside now. However, after all, the palace is different from other places, and there are many rules, so the miscellaneous family will remind you a few words. ā
Li Yuanqing and the three hurriedly kowtowed and thanked them.
The big eunuch smiled and said a few words about the rules of the palace, which was very pleasant.
Li Yuanqing already knew at this time who this big eunuch was.
Let's ask the world, except for the famous Gonggong Wei, who can approve the popularity on behalf of the Son of Heaven?
And the reason why Gonggong Wei is so kind to the three of them is probably because he has a strong desire to win over.
In just a moment, Li Yuanqing's heart had already made a decision.
How many years can the little emperor of the Apocalypse live, how many years will Wei Zhongxian be beautiful. At this time, it's only the beginning of the second year of the apocalypse, and this kind of thighs don't hug, isn't that stupid?
At this time, seeing that Wei Zhongxian finished speaking, Li Yuanqing hurriedly kowtowed and said, "A few people from the humble position Xie Gonggong mentioned it." Being able to get some mention from my father-in-law is really a blessing that a few lowly people have cultivated for thousands of years. ā
Wei Zhongxian couldn't help but be stunned, but after a moment, a soft smile appeared on the old face, and he smiled faintly: "You little monkey, are you quite clever?" Alright, get up. went to see the emperor with the miscellaneous family, and the emperor should be in a hurry. ā
Li Yuanqing and the three of them hurriedly kowtowed and thanked them, and then they dared to get up and carefully followed behind Wei Zhongxian.
After walking along the side hall for a while, I turned a corner, and the terrain suddenly opened up, this is a huge palace, covering an area of nearly a thousand square meters.
On the central case, a young man in a bright yellow dragon robe was bored holding a book, flipping through it, obviously a little confused.
Wei Zhongxian motioned for Li Yuanqing and the three of them to wait outside the door, and he walked into the hall carefully, came to the young emperor's side, and whispered a few words in a low voice.
Although it was far away, Li Yuanqing could still see it clearly, and the young emperor's face was overjoyed, and he was busy saying something to Wei Zhongxian.
After a while, a little eunuch hurriedly walked out, "The emperor has a decree, and the three generals Xuanzhangpan, Chen Zhong, and Li Yuanqing will meet ----."
Li Yuanqing and the three of them hurriedly followed the little eunuch to the palace, and just a few steps into the hall, the little eunuch glanced at the three of them, meaning to let the three kowtow and salute.
Li Yuanqing and the three of them hurriedly kowtowed again and again, respectfully saying, 'Long live my emperor, long live, long live'.
The little emperor of the Apocalypse couldn't wait at this time, so he came to Li Yuanqing and the three of them, looked at the three of them carefully, and couldn't help laughing: "The three generals, sure enough, they are all dragons and phoenixes among people, please hurry up." ā
Li Yuanqing and the three of them hurriedly kowtowed and thanked them, so they dared to stand up carefully.
Among the three, Li Yuanqing is the tallest, Chen Zhong's figure is also above 1.8 meters, and Zhang Pan is a little shorter, also above 1.75 meters.
Compared with this, the little emperor of the Apocalypse is much shorter, more than a head shorter than Li Yuanqing, almost a little more than 1.6 meters.
Seeing the figures of the three people, the little emperor of the Apocalypse couldn't help but be even more pleased and envious, "The three generals are really fierce generals." Otomo, you say, the three generals have done such a great job, how should I reward them? ā
Wei Zhongxian couldn't help but smile and shook his head, the emperor was still a child after all, and said with a busy smile: "The matter of reward, the cabinet and the court have already decided. Your Majesty, haven't you always wanted to know how the three generals caught Huerhan? Now, the three generals are here, just in time to ask for clarification. ā
The little emperor of the Apocalypse also reacted, and couldn't help but smile, "Exactly." If I don't say it, I'll forget it. Three generals, come and tell me, how did you capture Huerhan? ā
Seeing that the little emperor of the Apocalypse was so kind, Li Yuanqing and the three of them also relaxed a lot.
Zhang Pan hurriedly went out and carefully recounted the battle of the Sancha River crossing to the little emperor of the apocalypse.
Frankly speaking, Zhang Pan did not have a talent for storytelling, and the originally wonderful story became bland and tasteless when it came out of his mouth, but the little emperor of the Apocalypse was still very happy to listen to it.
When he heard that the three tribes finally decided to abandon the Tartars on the other side and only make a move against Huerhan because of the problem of troops, the little emperor of the apocalypse couldn't help but sigh, "Oops." This, this is really worrying. If the three generals had enough troops at that time, wouldn't they be able to wipe out this gang of Tartars? ā
Wei Zhongxian said with a smile: "Your Majesty, that's what you said. But if the three generals had so many troops at that time, I am afraid that they would not be able to enter the hinterland of western Liaoning so smoothly. ā
"Huh. That's right, too. But I'm confused. ā
The Little Emperor of the Apocalypse scratched his head with a smile, and said: "Three generals, you are all heroes of my Ming Dynasty, what good can you do to deal with Jiannu in the future?" ā
Wei Zhongxian also looked at the three of them with a smile.
Li Yuanqing's mind spun rapidly.
Due to the lack of cultural heritage, Li Yuanqing does not understand Wei Zhongxian's political position, however, Wang Huazhen is a eunuch, to a certain extent, Mao Wenlong should also be regarded as Wei Zhongxian's eunuch lineage, and these grassroots generals should also have the label of Wei Zhongxian.
This is probably the reason why Wei Zhongxian was so pleasant when he first met.
Through these previous questions, Li Yuanqing has already understood that the little emperor of the Apocalypse is still young after all, and his childishness is still very heavy, and the key to making decisions is probably the famous Wei Gonggong in front of him.
Among the three, Li Yuanqing had the least qualifications, so he didn't speak in a hurry, and gave Zhang Pan and Chen Zhong the opportunity to perform first.
Zhang Pan pondered for a while, and said: "Back to the emperor, Gonggong Wei, at this time, in such a situation, my Ming Dynasty has lost all the territory, if you want to defeat Jiannu in one fell swoop on the frontal battlefield, it is already very difficult." But my Ming Dynasty has a territory of thousands of miles, a population hundreds of times that of Jiannu, and the Liaoxi Corridor and the Liaohai region are still under the control of my Ming Dynasty, and we still have a great advantage. ā
The Little Emperor of the Apocalypse and Wei Zhongxian both nodded.
If a front-line general like Zhang Pan is limited, even if the perspective is limited, it is more realistic, and it is easier for them to form a correct judgment.
The little emperor of the apocalypse smiled and motioned for Zhang Pan to continue.
Zhang Pan said again: "You can't be in a hurry about this matter. Although Houjin seems to be strong, in fact, they also have a lot of instability. At this time, the Mongolian tribes in the west were ready to move, which had seriously threatened the interests of the Houjin, and after the old slave took Hexi (west of the Liao River), the next target must be Mongolia. Just waiting for the main force of the old slave to go out is the best opportunity for our department. ā
The little emperor of the Apocalypse couldn't help but be overjoyed, and laughed: "General Zhang has a strategy to break the enemy?" ā
Zhang Pan's eyes showed an indescribable look of excitement, and he hurriedly calmed down and organized his language.
On the side, Li Yuanqing lowered his head slightly, Zhang Pan still couldn't resist this temptation after all, and wanted to push himself to the cusp.
