Chapter 7: The Son of Heaven's Army
Xu Jingchun was moved to tears by Lu Chengqi's push, and he couldn't wait to dig out his heart on the spot to show his loyalty. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info immediately said: "The emperor loves much, and the only way to repay the minister is death!" ”
Lu Cheng pulled Xu Jingchun up with force, and said with a smile: "You don't have to die, I have one thing that I need you to do." ”
Xu Jingchun said categorically: "Your Majesty, please instruct, even if Weichen is smeared with liver and brain, he will definitely do it for the emperor!" ”
Lu Chengqi said word by word: "I ask you, do you have a trustworthy henchman in the capital?" ”
Xu Jingchun was stunned for a moment, and just wanted to answer, Lu Chengqi continued: "It must be the kind of innocent person who has nothing to do with the ministers of the DPRK and China." ”
Xu Jingchun thought for a while and said: "Weichen has many comrades, all of whom are in the border army, and their net worth is indeed innocent. It's a pity that they don't have any way, even if they have skills, they have nowhere to be promoted......" Suddenly, Xu Jingchun realized that he had slipped his mouth, but Lu Chengqi waved his hand and said: "I know what you said, you don't have to be taboo, I just have to make up my mind to eradicate these tumors for Dashun." ”
Xu Jingchun's worried heart slowly relaxed, and continued: "Weichen once served as a captain in the border army, and he has a lot of henchmen. ”
Lu Chengqi remained silent and said, "Can you read?" I want you to write down the names of these people so that they can be reused. ”
Xu Jingchun was overjoyed, and bowed to the ground again: "The emperor treats them like this, they must be loyal!" It's just a micro-minister...... He is a rough person, but he knows one or two words, but he doesn't know much. ”
Lu Chengqi frowned and said, "That's it, you come and I'll write it." After that, he picked up a wolf pen, spread out a piece of rice paper, dipped it in thick black ink on the inkstone, and wrote down a holy decree: "Shangyu: The border army of Yanmen Pass has meritorious service in resisting the enemy, and it is rumored that the meritorious soldiers will return to Beijing to face the holy ......."
After a short time, this holy decree was prepared, and after handing over the holy decree to Xu Jingchun, he said: "You need to do this matter yourself, and I can't rest assured that I can leave it to others." This matter is about the world, you must do it well, otherwise you will come back to see me with your head! Also, don't alarm the ministers of the DPRK and the central government, and you have to dress up in disguise along the road, can you understand what I mean? ”
Although Xu Jingchun is loyal, he is not a fool, Lu Chengqi said it so obviously, he will not comprehend it anymore. immediately made a poisonous oath: "Wechen will live up to the emperor's trust, if it can't be done, Wechen will come to see him!" ”
Lu Chengqi seemed to let go of a matter on his mind, breathed a sigh of relief, waved his hand tiredly, and said, "You go down to do something." ”
Xu Jingchun withdrew, looked back at the majestic imperial study, wiped a cold sweat, but was full of pride, he knew that this time he was going to gamble, if the bet was right, the glory and wealth of the second half of his life would be at his fingertips. He was like a spring breeze, the wind was blowing under his feet, he trotted out of the palace all the way, led a healthy horse, didn't even return home, and went straight out of the city.
At this time, in the imperial study, a little eunuch was telling Lu Chengqi: "Your Majesty, the minister saw with his own eyes that the chief of the guard Xu went straight to the outside of the city, and did not delay for a moment in the city. ”
When Lu Chengqi heard this, his eyes burst into light, waved his hand, and said, "I know, you did a good job, go to the inner treasury to get fifty taels of silver, and say that it is my reward." ”
The little eunuch smiled and respectfully withdrew from the imperial study. A smile appeared at the corner of Lu Chengqi's mouth, and he said in his heart: "In the past few days, I have been constantly exploring the structure of the DPRK and China, and I can be regarded as having some experience. When Xu Jingchun returns, my pro-army will be there. Hmph, you must first settle inside, these rice-eating insects, it's time to harvest! ”
Outside the palace, on the Taishi's mansion.
Taishi Yang quietly listened to the report of the ear thread he had laid in the palace, and when he heard that Xu Jingchun was ordered to go out of the city overnight on a business trip, he paused for a moment to drink tea, and said with a frown: "You mean that the little emperor summoned Xu Jingchun's stunned young man and talked inside for a long time?" ”
The chamberlain (a type of eunuch position) who stood down and said, "Our family will never be mistaken, the emperor summoned the chief of the guard Xu and stayed in the imperial study for about three quarters of an hour. And after the chief of the Xu guards left the imperial study, they went straight out of Beijing. ”
Before Taishi Yang could speak, a voice sounded on the screen behind him: "Dad, that little emperor who doesn't learn and doesn't know how to learn, must have found something interesting again, so he asked Xu Jingchun to procure it, are you too careful?" ”
As soon as the words fell, a nobleman with a shiny face came out from behind the screen, waved the chamberlain out of the room, and said, "You have done a good job, go to the butler to receive the reward!" ”
The chamberlain didn't dare to stay any longer, and withdrew. Taishi Yang took another sip of tea slowly and said, "Having said that, you must not be unguarded!" Others don't know, don't you know? Everyone knows that the master is beautiful, but they don't know how dangerous it is. If you are not careful, you will never recover! ”
Gui Gongzi smiled: "Even if that little emperor wakes up now, it's too late." North Korean and Chinese officials, who dares not to listen to their father's words? ”
Master Yang frowned and said, "It's okay for others, but that old man will never give up on being against the old man!" ”
The noble son smiled: "Xu Chongguang, that old man is a stubborn donkey, why should you be angry?" However, he was in charge of the household department, which caused a lot of trouble for his father. ”
Taishi Yang sighed and said: "Even if he has the ability, without him, the Dashun Dynasty will be half collapsed." If it weren't for that, how could the old man keep him until now? But after the little emperor fell seriously ill, it seemed that he really changed people, and it was a sign that he was going to take power? ”
The noble prince said: "Don't worry, Daddy, in four days, it will be the regular dynasty, and then you will know what the little emperor is planning." ”
Master Yang put down the teacup and said, "That's the only way." ”
"Daddy, it's late at night, go back and rest. The affairs of the DPRK and China will be left to those bad old men. ”
Master Yang sighed and said, "Okay, I'll go and rest first." ”
Gui Gongzi sent Yang Taishi into the bedroom, then flicked off the folding fan, and said to Mingyue: "Little Emperor, if you want to be a faint monarch, it's fine, if you want to be in power, hum, then don't blame my subordinates for not being merciful!" ”
The moonlight is like water, but where the moonlight does not shine, it is as black as ink......
The next day, Lu Chengqi was told that Xu Chongguang, the head of the household, was outside to see him. Lu Chengqi frowned, it had been five or six days since he crossed over, but he had never seen an official so dedicated. Lu Chengqi said in his heart: "Could it be that this is the legendary loyal minister?" ”
He almost couldn't help but "eat" Zhou Zhiruo last night, and he endured it so hard that he almost didn't sleep all night. No wonder he was too weak now, sixteen years old, as if he could be blown down by the wind. Besides, Zhou Zhiruo is only fifteen years old, and now she has sex, which is simply a matter of careless human life. For the sake of himself and his wife, Lu Chengqi still held back.
After being served by the little palace maids and washed up, Lu Chengqi went to the imperial dining room for breakfast, and remembered that the household secretary was still waiting for him, so he ordered: "Please Xu Qing go to the imperial dining room with me." ”
