Chapter 567: Know Yourself and Know Your Enemy
Tang Ming wanted to see Jianwen, but Zhu Gaochi was not surprised, and personally took him to the harem, this unique small building. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
It is still heavily guarded, and no one is allowed to enter or leave without the emperor's permission. Usually in this small building, in addition to the guards, there are only a few eunuchs.
When Zhu Gaochi and Tang Ming arrived, they had not yet entered the small building, but they suddenly heard a familiar sound, the sound of rubbing mahjong and the complaint of the eunuch.
Obviously, upstairs this should be playing mahjong, and it should be Jianwen, the old man, who played a scoundrel, listening to the urgent complaint of an old eunuch, this scoundrel is still playing a lot.
The guard guarding the door just wanted to inform the emperor that he had arrived, but Zhu Gaochi waved his hand to stop him, and quietly entered the wooden building with Tang Ming, and went directly to the second floor without stopping.
As far as the eye can see, there is only a luxurious wooden table in the middle of the entire second floor, four chairs and four people, who are engrossed in playing their mahjong. Even Zhu Gaochi and Tang Ming had been by their side for a while, but they still didn't know it.
Tang Ming didn't want to wait stupidly for them to come and find out, so he coughed lightly to attract everyone's attention, and then smiled at Jianwen: "Mr. has a ruddy complexion, it seems that the little life is still good." ”
Jianwen has presbyopia, but fortunately, Zhu Gaochi has ordered the craftsman to get him a pair of glasses, which will recognize Tang Minglai at a glance. The other three eunuchs were startled when they saw Zhu Gaochi, and they all trembled and knelt on the ground, even claiming that they deserved to die.
Zhu Gaochi was a little annoyed, and directly waved his hand to blast the three eunuchs out, and the second floor returned to calm.
Jianwen watched Tang Ming carefully for a moment before he spoke: "It turned out that there was a distinguished guest arriving today, no wonder the old man's luck just now has been very good, TOEFL!" ”
What kind of luck is good, Tang Ming just stood for a while, and obviously saw that Jianwen, the old man, had played a scoundrel no less than three times. The brand that was played out, people were going to eat Hu, and he actually said that he had bad eyes and played the wrong brand. Judging from his appearance as a scoundrel, Tang Ming was very upset with the three eunuchs who were playing with him.
Tang Ming and Jianwen said a few polite words, and then went straight to the topic: "This time I suddenly came to disturb Mr.'s purity, because I don't understand some things, and I hope that Mr. can solve the doubts for this prince." ”
Jianwen invited the two to sit down at this time, and said with a smile: "If you have any doubts, even if you say it bluntly, the old man should know it and not say anything." ”
Tang Ming hugged his fists and thanked him, and then said: "A few days ago, when my subordinates were on a mission on the border of the Yue Kingdom, in a deep mountain and old forest, they accidentally discovered a gathering place of the Bright Sect. That place is not very far from the place where Mr. fell, there is a huge altar, I wonder if Mr. knows about this place? ”
Tang Ming stared at any slight changes in Jianwen's face as he spoke, he needed Jianwen's true thoughts in his heart, and he also hoped that he wouldn't have any perfunctory possibilities for himself.
Jianwen was very confused, at least Tang Ming didn't see anything wrong with his face, he was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and smiled bitterly: "You are suspecting that the old man is hiding the truth of the matter from you, and that's right!" I really can't blame you for thinking about it, in fact, the old man is indeed the most suspicious person at present. ”
His self-deprecation was full of bitterness, and his expression was even more decadent and lonely, a dignified emperor of the former Ming Dynasty, and in just twenty years, he became a pawn of the Bright Sect. Now he is suspected of being impure, but he can't have a seizure, so he can only endure it silently.
"Alas!"
A long sigh came from Jianwen's mouth, and it took a long time before he heard him say: "The old man of the altar you said really didn't know that he would flee to the mountains in the first place, and it was also because of those two people who raised poisons. I thought that relying on their poison could buy time for the old man to escape, but I still lost at your hands. ”
Tang Ming suddenly withdrew his gaze and stared at Jianwen, from his expression and tone, he could already fully trust him, in fact, as long as he thought about it deeply, Jianwen did not have a reason and motive to deceive them now.
Nodding, Tang Ming chose to believe him, and asked again: "Then I don't know if Mr. knows if there is a woman in the Bright Sect, and this woman's status in the sect should not be small?" ”
There is such a question, also because Zhu Yong once mentioned to him what he saw with his own eyes that day, and Zhu Yong, the person on the altar, deliberately paid attention to it, and was even more impressed by the beautiful woman.
The corners of Jianwen's mouth curled slightly, and he said with a smile: "Is this woman both beautiful and young?" ”
Tang Ming's eyes nodded and said, "Yes!" ”
In fact, she is the saint of the sect, that is, the next sect leader. When the old man was controlled by the Bright Sect before, he directly obeyed her, this woman is extremely smart, and her delicate mind should not be underestimated. To put it mildly, although she does not have the majesty of the prince, she will never lose to any of us in the rigor of employing people and doing things. ”
With the arrogance of the emperor of the previous dynasty of Jianwen, in the end, he was bought by him with all his heart, and he was willing to act as a pawn at his mercy. It can be said that this memory is a piece of his heart disease now, and it is also a shame.
Zhu Gaochi's face was full of disdain at the moment, isn't there anything great about a little woman, she seems to be so powerful, but the result is not sneaky and afraid to come out, and fight with himself or Tang Ming openly.
When Jianwen saw Zhu Gaochi's disdainful look, he just smiled and did not explain again, but Tang Ming was convinced. He never classified himself among the wise, and as for his current situation and fame, it can only be said that it depends on luck and the knowledge of the afterlife.
And when he removed these advantages, the other Tang Ming was just an ordinary person who couldn't be ordinary anymore. Not even better than some of the native people, at least they know everything about this era. When Tang Ming first came, it would take a long time to integrate into this era.
As for being smart, he never thought of himself as a smart person. For example, he is definitely not the opponent of those old fox courtiers in the court, which is why he always avoids and is unwilling to go to court. Avoiding one's own shortcomings and promoting one's own strengths, this is the way Tang Ming believes in doing things.
"Sir is so familiar with this holy woman, I wonder if you can tell us about her life. Knowing that the other side can survive a hundred battles, we don't know anything about this secret enemy, so it directly leads to us not knowing where to start. Tang Ming clasped his fists and saluted again, and his tone was very sincere. (To be continued.) )
