Chapter 88: The Emperor's Decree Must Not Be Violated
"You kid is in the blessing, I don't know if it's a blessing, what is the identity of the queen? In addition to the emperor's final say, there is only the queen left. As the mother of a country, I asked you to do something, and what kind of temper do you dare to play, will there be a shortage of people among the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty? It's just that the kid has been having a good time recently, and he forgot that there is such a thing as Wang Fa. ”
Yao Guangxiao was so provoked by Tang Ming's words that he almost jumped up and scolded him with his head and face. didn't leave any emotion, it seemed to be really angry.
Tang Ming was also shocked when he saw Yao Guangxiao's abnormal performance, he usually looked at this old monk as if he had no temper, and thought he was very good at talking, but this would be regarded as an understanding that no matter how honest a person is, he will have an outburst one day.
Not to mention that Yao Guangxiao, who can stand in such a high position, is definitely not a temperless person, but he is hiding deep enough now. Being reprimanded by Yao Guangxiao, Tang Ming naturally didn't dare to show any dissatisfaction, no one would speak for him, and a sense of powerlessness lingered in his heart.
originally wanted to come to Yao Guangxiao in a hurry to find comfort, but now he was not only scolded, but also wronged, and this depressed mood was only understood by himself.
"What the master taught is that the disciple has been taught!" No one agrees with him, so there is no choice but to compromise.
In fact, Yao Guangxiao was just anxious, he wasn't really training Tang Ming, he was angry, and he didn't want to serve the emperor more. just cares about messing around all day long, and this mentality of getting by is the most unaccustomed to him.
Yao Guangxiao couldn't help but think: "Although Tang Ming, this kid is a genius, after all, his age is still too young, and he can't become a big deal if he is uncertain." Looks like he's going to have to sharpen him for a few more years! ”
The lesson has also been taught, Tang Ming also realized his mistake, although he is definitely not convinced in his heart, but forcing him to do things is not a long-term solution. This little trick of beating a mallet to give a candy, Yao Guangxiao, the first minister of the dynasty, naturally understands.
"The emperor has only been a little tighter recently, so let you think of an idea to make some money, and not cut off your head and make a fuss. It's good to sell your wine for the sake of the teacher, but as for those major matters of people's livelihood and economy, it is not your turn to worry about it now. Slowing down his tone, Yao Guangxiao began to persuade him with good words.
It seems that the emperor is just looking for himself and trying to get some money, so what else does he have to worry about. As Yao Guangxiao said, it is not a matter of minutes to make some distilled liquor and sell it and dominate the emperor's name.
Respectfully saluting and bidding farewell to Yao Guangxiao, Tang Ming hurried back to Zheng's mansion non-stop, and before he could step into the mansion, he met the eunuch sent by the queen to take him into the palace. When they met, it turned out that they were still old acquaintances, and they took him to visit Fang Xiaoru's little father-in-law in the prison for the first time.
Unexpectedly, the little eunuch who was still guarding the palace gate before, I haven't seen him for a few days, and as soon as the emperor ascended the throne, he became a person next to the queen. It can be seen that when this guy betrayed Jianwen, he must have made a lot of contributions.
They are all old acquaintances, so naturally everyone doesn't need to say some polite words so hypocritically, greet each other and set off for the palace.
Tang Ming, who has entered the palace many times, is still the first time to come to the harem where the queen lives, and the ministers are not allowed to come to the harem. But Tang Ming has the queen's decree, and the road is naturally unimpeded.
When Tang Ming arrived at the Shouning Palace where the queen lived, it was noon, and the acquaintance of the little father-in-law went in first to tell him, and he waited outside the door. Just as he was bored, a familiar voice appeared behind him. Turning around, it was Zhu Yong, who I hadn't seen for a long time.
This guy was wearing a guard uniform today, with a brand-new broadsword pinned to his waist, and his still swarthy face was full of surprise at the moment.
"Tang Ming, did you kid forget me, you haven't come to see me for so long since you came to Nanjing, are we good brothers?" Zhu Yong's surprise was followed by endless complaints.
Since he came to Nanjing City, he wanted to be a good prestige in the army, but at this juncture, Zhang Yu seemed to be afraid that Zhu Yong would cause him some trouble. actually issued an order to directly arrange him to the emperor's side as a royal guard.
Zhang Yu was indeed relieved, but Zhu Yong was miserable, staying in the palace all day and not leaving, and there was not even a person who could talk well. He has always been unable to be quiet, but he was arranged to be a guard by the emperor's side, he naturally did not dare to be presumptuous, only an honest errand.
Whenever he thinks of the days with Tang Ming and Li Ba in Weihaiwei, Zhu Yong is full of longing. He was almost suffocated, he thought he was dazzled when he saw Tang Ming just now, but when he was really sure, he was naturally pleasantly surprised.
"Why did you hide in the palace, didn't you say that you were going to come to Nanjing to be on duty for your father and take good care of the soldiers in the army?" When he met Zhu Yong here, Tang Ming was also quite surprised.
Zhu Yong was about to vomit bitterness, but unexpectedly, a sharp voice came from the Shouning Palace: "Biography, Weihai is waiting for Tang Ming to meet you!" ”
It was too late to listen to Zhu Yong spit out bitterness, Tang Ming left a sentence and had a chance to talk later, and hurriedly walked into the Shouning Palace. The sun was shining outside, and as soon as he stepped into the door, Tang Ming couldn't get used to the darkness in the house for a while. After a few quick blinks, he slowly recovered.
I saw the queen sitting next to the coffee table, the person next to her was Zhu Di, in the cubicle inside, there was a dining table, which was full of more than a dozen dishes, and the hot steam was constantly coming out, it seemed that the queen and the emperor should not have used it well.
Tang Ming, who had not eaten a drop of water since the morning, was already so hungry that his stomach was growling, and he smelled the fragrance of food in his nose, and he almost couldn't hold back, and his saliva was about to flow out. Even when he saw the queen, the emperor forgot to salute, and his father-in-law, who was so anxious that he was familiar with him, kept making eyes.
Fortunately, the queen didn't seem to blame Tang Ming's faux pas, and said with a smile: "Weihaihou, let's dine inside with the mourning family and the emperor!" Look at your gluttonous appearance, do you still eat lunch? ”
The world is big, the meal is the biggest, Tang Mingke is not polite at all, and after thanking him, he sat down with the two of them, opened his belly and ate heavily. Not only did he not have time to eat lunch, he didn't even eat breakfast, he pretended to be a gentleman with a hungry stomach, this kind of loss-making thing would not be done if Tang Ming was killed.
Although the food is not good-looking, Tang Ming seems to have played a leading role, and the emperor and queen actually ate a bowl of rice more than usual under Tang Ming's infection. This made the cook who had been waiting next to him smile on his face.
Recently, the emperor seems to be angry about something, and the amount of food for three meals has decreased a lot, which makes the cooks of the Gozenfang feel panicked and worried about their heads all the time. Today's cook is also considered lucky, when he meets Tang Ming, a nobleman, he will definitely be rewarded afterwards.
