Chapter 901: Straight Palace
Chu Huan was bored and lazy out of the Guangming Palace, his heart was still quite slanderous against the emperor, and he was about to have a round room with Su Niang at home, but he was interrupted by Shengsheng and summoned to the palace.
He didn't know what the emperor was doing when he announced that he had entered the palace so late, and he was puzzled, when he came out of the palace, a gust of breeze came, but his heart was thinking about whether he would go to Su Niang's courtyard after returning to the house, and whether he should finish the unfinished business.
I heard a scream in my ears, and saw several eunuchs not far away pressing Yelisin, who were playing the board under the supervision of Shui Lian, Chu Huan's face was expressionless, and he could hear Shui Lian shouting over there: "Lighter, lighter, don't hurt Grandpa Ye!" ”
Chu Huan thought to himself that this water ripple should be incompatible with Yelisin's water and fire, with such a good opportunity, how could he not rectify it well, could it be that this water ripple was really afraid that Yelisyn would settle accounts after the autumn.
Shui Lian had already seen Chu Huan coming out of the hall over there, and hurriedly came over, Chu Huan had already smiled and said: "The saint is tired, I will announce it another day, father-in-law, I am going out of the palace." ”
Shui Lian has already said: "The main palace gate has been closed, and it will not be opened after midnight, Lord Chu, the miscellaneous family sent you to leave through the side door, your carriage, the miscellaneous family has already notified the side door to wait." ”
Chu Huan knew that this was the rule of the kilometer, for the safety of the palace, some palace doors had to be closed, and he smiled at the moment: "My father-in-law is also very tired, just send someone to take me there." ”
Shui Lian shook his head and said, "If it doesn't work, the miscellaneous family will send you personally." I couldn't help but say that I wanted to take Chu Huan out of the palace, Chu Huan saw that Shui Lian insisted, and it was not easy to refuse, and at the moment with Shui Lian out of the palace, passing by the side of Yelisin, I saw several eunuchs carrying wooden sticks and execution, but these eunuchs didn't look heavy, but Yelixin screamed like a pig, and said in his heart that this Yelixin didn't want to deliberately pretend to provoke the sympathy of the snowflake lady in the inner temple.
After walking over, Shui Lian glanced back, and the corners of his mouth crossed a smug look, but Chu Huan saw it in his eyes, felt a little strange, and couldn't help but ask softly: "Father-in-law, is this Jelisyn pretending?" ”
Shui Lian smiled, lowered his voice and said: "When others ask, the miscellaneous family has their own words to deal with, and if Lord Chu asks, the miscellaneous family can only tell you the truth." Lord Chu, you know that these children are specially executed with canes in the palace, and they have been with the miscellaneous family for some years, and they still obey the words of the miscellaneous family. Chu Huan nodded, and also knew that although Yelisin relied on the existence of the snowflake girl, he seemed to be majestic in the palace, but the foundation was far inferior to the water ripples, the eunuchs and palace maids in this palace were all the eyes and ears of the water ripples, and the water ripples did not dare to tear their faces with Yelisin for the sake of the snowflake girls, but if they really wanted to fight, Yelixin might not be able to fight the water ripples that were deeply rooted in the palace.
"This cane is not known to outsiders, but if it is really an insider, it is very good." Shui Lian led Chu Huan out of the palace and said in a low voice: "Lord Chu saw that the children were very light, so he thought that Yelisyn was actually pretending?" ”
Chu Huan nodded and said, "Not bad." ”
Shui Lian said a little proudly: "Lord Chu doesn't know, these little guys who are executing are not weak in ability, and that is a good way to practice one-handed cane punishment." Put a piece of tofu on the table, cover it with a layer of light yarn, exert enough strength, pick up the stick and hit it, I don't know, I thought it was fighting hard to hit the stone, and the fight is called a strong, but when you hit thirty or forty sticks, take the light yarn away, and ensure that the tofu has no cracks at all......! ”
Chu Huan let out an "oh", and Shui Lian continued: "Stuff the hay into the sack, put it on the ground, and then hit it with a stick, it looks like it's just touched, and when you open the bag and look again, the hay is broken by roots!" ”
Chu Huan understood and sighed: "This method is really amazing. ”
Shui Lian smiled: "In a line, there is always a doorway in a line." Speaking of which, these methods were not initiated from the palace, but in the early years from the local yamen, it is said that those executed servants came up with these methods in order to obtain some foreign money. It looks like the strength has been used up, the skin is open, in fact, I went back to recuperate for three or two days and recovered as before, but some of them seemed to be randomly hit a few times, and I really wanted to go back, and I broke my muscles and bones, and I had to be disabled if I didn't get it right. ”
Chu Huan said with a smile: "So, then Jelisin is really calling?" ”
Shui Lian sneered: "It's only been a few days since I arrived in the palace, and there is no one in sight, and everyone in the palace looks at him unpleasantly, so they want to find a chance to teach him a good lesson, but they haven't been able to find a chance, Lord Chu helped everyone out today, and everyone is grateful in their hearts, this Yelisin, why don't you want him to get up for ten days and half a month." ”
Between the two talking and laughing, they turned around the corridor of the palace, this side has become deserted, but there are also guards patrolling from time to time, suddenly saw the sound of the car sounding, Chu Huan looked up, and saw two carts not far ahead, seven or eight eunuchs were pulling the cart over, the car had not yet approached, Chu Huan smelled a strange smell, but saw that Shui Lian had raised his sleeves to block his nose, had flashed to the side, and made way out, seeing that Chu Huan did not dodge, he hurriedly said: "Lord Chu, this is the person from the direct palace eunuch who poured the bucket at night, don't pollute you!" ”
Chu Huan was stunned, but he understood in an instant.
There is food and drink in the palace, of course, there is also Lasa, the emperor and queen and their concubines and palace eunuchs, that is thousands of people eat and drink Lasa, and the filth of each palace must be cleaned up.
This straight palace supervisor is naturally a group of people who clean up the Gong bucket, it is inconvenient during the day, but in the dead of night, it is to send all the Gong barrels in the palace out of the palace to clean up, and I saw that the Gong buckets on the board car are piled up, and there are many side down, obviously just cleaned up from the outside.
Chu Huan also retreated to the side, looking at the two carts passing in front of him, these direct palace supervisors were covered with black gauze, and their eyes were covered, and they didn't dare to look up when they saw Chu Huan wearing an official uniform beside him.
The palace eunuchs and palace maids, thousands of people, are also divided into sixteen divisions, there are inner palace supervisors in charge of purchasing utensils, there are divisions in charge of dependence, curtains, and rain gear, there are food supervisors in charge of food and jade banquets, there are clothes and clothing supervisors in charge of robes, shoes and socks, and there are seals and ribbons in charge of zirconium, seals, letters, surveys, and books.
Shui Lian is subordinate to the governor, that is, he serves the emperor and is responsible for the summons, etc., and it stands to reason that he does not have much power, but because he is the person around the emperor, it is naturally extraordinary, and the palace people see it, and they all want to give a little thin face.
However, this direct palace supervisor is responsible for palace hygiene, and belongs to the lowest yamen of the sixteen eunuchs, but Shui Lian is also a little disdainful in his bones.
Seeing the two carts passing, Shui Lian was about to take Chu Huan away, but Chu Huan suddenly said, "Slow!" "I was staring at the cart behind me.
Hearing Chu Huan's order, the two carts hurriedly stopped, and the water ripples were unknown, and they said strangely: "Lord Chu, you are ......!" ”
Chu Huan had already smiled and said to Shui Lian: "Father-in-law Shui, please send it here, it's not far from the west gate, I'm afraid that the saint will look for you when he turns back, don't delay Father-in-law, please go back first, I'll let them bring it over." ”
Shui Lian frowned and glanced at those eunuchs of the Straight Palace, and said softly: "Lord Chu, this ......!" ”
"My father-in-law and I are already close friends, and your intentions are already clear to the lower officials." Chu Huan sighed: "Father-in-law Shui treats people kindly, and the lower officials are grateful, so I really can't delay my father-in-law any longer." He casually pointed to one of his eunuchs and said, "You lead me to the west gate and take this official out of the palace!" ”
Seeing that Chu Huan insisted, Shui Lian didn't say anything, he was really worried that the emperor would turn around and greet him, if he was not in the palace, it would be a little bad, and he also beckoned to the eunuch at the moment and said, "Come here and lead Lord Chu out of the palace." ”
The status of the direct hall eunuch was low, and at this time, Chu Huan called, how dare the leading direct hall eunuch dare to offend, and waved his hand: "You go and lead the lord out of the palace!" ”
The little eunuch was a little hesitant, and Shui Lian was already annoyed: "I can't come yet!" ”
The little eunuch had no choice but to come over, Shui Lian said goodbye to Chu Huan and returned from the Changguang Palace, and the eunuchs of the direct hall did not dare to delay, and pulled the car in, leaving only the little eunuch standing next to him with his head down, Chu Huan glanced at him, did not speak, and did not wait for him to lead the way, he walked forward with his hands behind his back, walked a few steps, and saw that the little eunuch did not follow, frowned and said, "Don't keep up yet!" ”
The little eunuch kept his head down, seemed to be a little scared, and finally followed, Chu Huan walked along the road of the palace, and it didn't take long for him to see the palace wall appear in front of him from a distance, knowing that it was about to arrive, at this time, there was no one around, it was quite dim, but the little eunuch's steps were fast, and he was getting closer to Chu Huan.
He finally raised his head, stared at the back of Chu Huan's head with a pair of eyes, and saw Chu Huan walking forward calmly, the little eunuch's eyes flashed a light, looked left and right, and suddenly stepped forward quickly, he had already raised a hand, turned his hand into a knife, and his body was light, and he silently cut down on the back of Chu Huan's head.
Seeing that his hand was about to cut on the back of Chu Huan's head, but when he saw the figure in front of him flickering, Chu Huan disappeared in an instant, the little eunuch immediately felt a strong wind under him, and when he lowered his head, he saw that Chu Huan did not disappear, but suddenly lowered his body just now, and at this time he had already turned around, and a hand reached out, grabbing his waist and eye.
The little eunuch didn't expect Chu Huan's reaction to be so sensitive, he was taken aback, and quickly retreated, but Chu Huan was already following him like a shadow, and he followed him quickly, the little eunuch's body was light, Chu Huan pasted it, the little eunuch pointed to the ground on his toes, and retreated continuously, the cold light flashed, and there was already an extra dagger with cold light in his hand, and he reprimanded in a low voice: "What do you want?" ”
Chu Huan had already stood firm, his hands behind his back, his eyes were like torches, staring at the eyes of the little eunuch, and he said in a deep voice: "You ask me what I want?" I would like to ask you what exactly do you want? What kind of place do you think this is? ”
