Chapter Ninety-Four: "Great Wisdom and Foolishness" Zhu Youxiang

The early chirping of cicadas from the plane trees on both sides of Shichengmen Street seems to indicate that today is another hot day.

Luo Jian and the others got up early, in this hot summer with no air conditioning and no electric fans, it is indeed not a comfortable thing to sleep at night.

"Brother Luo, is this Xiaoice River period over? Why is it so hot on this day? Liu Lan stretched her waist, and her beautiful figure made Luo Jian a little moved.

"According to the history books, it seems to be this year, saying that the temperature has risen rapidly this year." Luo Jian turned his gaze to look at the small garden.

"Last night, the little maid sat on the edge of my bed and kept fanning me, seeing that she was sweating profusely, and she stopped and knelt on the ground in fright, which was really uncomfortable." Liu Lan pouted and said.

"Yes, at this time, the strict concept of hierarchy has been deeply rooted in people's bones, and we have a long way to go to change this! Let's start with us. Luo Jian said with a sigh.

Seeing Wang Qiang yawning and walking into the back garden, Liu Lan glared at him and said, "You kid had to be in the limelight last night, which made me embarrassed." ”

"Sister Liulan, why are you embarrassed? You play so well, you're so much better than whoever you are. Wang Qiang said with a smile.

"Xiao Wang, don't talk nonsense, Liu Ru is a professional player, and your sister Liu Lan is an amateur, and she can't compare with others. It's good that you went up and stirred it up, otherwise it would have been a bit embarrassing. Luo Jian said with a smile.

"It's all about to die, they are still singing and dancing, I don't look comfortable, so I invited Sister Liulan to play, by the way, this meal last night cost a lot of money, right?" Only then did Wang Qiang tell his true intentions.

"You kid still have this mind? Can't see it? I asked for this meal last night, and it cost 2,000 taels of silver. Liu Lan turned to stare at Wang Qiang, seeing that he began to care about this, as if she was looking to see if it was a different person.

"Sister Liulan, don't underestimate me, I've been reading and studying these days, and I've read almost all the books that the chief told me to read. This is not the chief's business alone, veteran Liu is so hard, I can't pull it down. Wang Qiang, who said this, looked a lot more mature.

As he was talking, Steward Li turned out, bowed to a few people and said, "Grandpa Guo, Grandpa Zhang is here in the palace, please invite Grandpa Guo and a few people to enter the palace after eating." ”

"Grandpa Zhang?" Luo Jian walked towards the front yard, thinking to himself that it was Gonggong Zhang who read the holy decree yesterday.

When I walked to the front yard, it was not Zhang Zhizhong who came, but Zhang Cheng who followed Ruan Dacheng to Yangzhou.

"Father-in-law Zhang, I haven't seen you for many days, and you will come here in person today?" Luo Jian said hello.

Zhang Cheng did not have the arrogance of Zhang Zhizhong at all.

Zhang Cheng, who has seen all kinds of angels in Yangzhou, stubbornly thinks that a few people are immortals in the world, how dare he have the slightest disrespect for immortals? He lowered his eyebrows and took a few steps forward and was about to kneel down and kowtow to Luo Jian, but Luo Jian hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed him.

"Father-in-law Zhang, yesterday you already knew that we don't like people to kneel, not only that we don't kneel to people, but we don't like others to kneel to us." Luo Jian said to Zhang Cheng and glanced back at Steward Li.

"Grandpa Guo, the emperor came to invite Grandpa Guo with a small one, I wonder if Grandpa Guo can drive a god car to the palace?" Zhang Cheng said cautiously.

"Hehe, of course you can, as long as you can pass the big car on this road, it's no problem, let's eat first, and then set off after eating!" Luo Jian said with a smile, didn't the emperor let a few people come to Beijing just to see this warrior car?

"Let's go, Father-in-law Zhang, the two little fathers-in-law, let's eat together! Surely you haven't eaten yet. Luo Jian shouted to Zhang Cheng and the two little eunuchs he brought.

"The little ones don't dare, please invite Grandpa Guo to eat, and the little ones are waiting outside." Zhang Cheng was taken aback, and said in his heart, how dare he eat with a few angels?

"Why are you so abrasive? We eat, you wait, how can you let us eat? Liu Lan took a few steps forward and said to Zhang Cheng.

Zhang Cheng had no choice but to lead the two little eunuchs into the house with the three of them.

The breakfast was very rich, and the lotus seed eight-treasure porridge and more than a dozen kinds of snacks that were boiled last night, plus six or seven dishes of exquisite side dishes, made Luo Jian and the others dazzled.

"Don't make so much tomorrow morning, cook a big pot of white rice porridge, steam a pot of steamed buns, stir-fry pickles, Steward Li, do you hear? We can't afford to eat this way! ”

Seeing that breakfast was so extravagant, Liu Lan was very unhappy and said to Steward Li.

Wang Qiang doesn't care so much, more than two months of intensive training in the army, coupled with daily martial arts training with Wang Sicheng, his food has become extremely large, and he didn't eat too much last night, and he was already hungry.

picked up the spoon and first gave Luo Jian a bowl of eight-treasure porridge, and then took the bowl in front of Zhang Cheng and was about to serve it to him, so frightened that Zhang Cheng almost didn't fall from his seat, stood up and said again and again: "The little one doesn't dare to work angels." ”

"You're really wordy, it's convenient for me here, hurry up and eat, and I'll enter the palace after eating." Sister Liulan, this is about to enter the palace, are you nervous? Wang Qiang complained to Zhang Cheng for a few words, and then turned his head to ask Liu Lan.

"Nervous? This girl is a person who even dares to make a big fuss from the town government, and she will be afraid of a small Jinluan Palace? After Liu Lan finished speaking, she laughed first.

Luo Jian and Wang Qiang also laughed when they heard it.

Zhang Cheng listened to it on the side, and while drinking porridge in small sips, he began to ponder, where is this "town government"? Could it be a heavenly palace?

After breakfast, Luo Jian asked Zhang Cheng and the three of them to get into the car together, and went out of the palace gate in the direction of the imperial city.

Zhang Cheng has been the envy of everyone since he sat in this "magic car" in Yangzhou, and he has always been the envy of everyone when he returned to the palace, and today he was pulled on the "magic car" by the "angel", and he was grateful in his heart, and the two little eunuchs curled up together, not daring to move.

"So that the grandfather of the country knows that the emperor wanted to pick up a few angels in person yesterday, but was stopped by the ministers, saying that it would damage the face of the heavenly family, and today the emperor will invite a few angels to have a banquet in the palace."

Zhang Cheng said flatteringly to Luo Jian, who was driving.

"Oh, we haven't eaten the food in the palace yet, and we're in for a good day." Luo Jian replied casually.

"By the way, Gonggong Zhang, is there a woman named Li Xiangjun in this palace?" Liu Lan, who was sitting in the front row, remembered what Hou Fangyu begged for.

"Back to the angel girl, yes, this woman plays the pipa very well, and now she is the professor of the palace female musicians, and the little one is just in charge of them." Zhang Cheng hurriedly replied.

"Oh, you're in charge? Then can you get her out of the palace, I also want to learn to play the pipa. When Liu Lan heard this, she was happy in her heart, thinking that it would save you if you just got her out.

"Ouch, angel girl, don't you dare this little one, the people in this palace are all registered, if there is one less person, the small one can't be explained." Zhang Cheng was startled and said to Liu Lan anxiously.

"Okay, I'll go to the emperor and ask for someone." Seeing Zhang Cheng say this, Liu Lan couldn't do it, so she had to find another way.

The guards rode their horses ahead of the road, and the road was very smooth today.

Soon cross Xi'anmen Outer Street, turn right into West Huangchenggen Street, and then turn left to Chengtianmen.

As soon as the warrior car stopped, the eunuch guarding the Chengtianmen immediately shouted: "Wei Guogong and the angels have arrived in the divine car!" ”

The eunuch in front of him relayed inside.

Luo Jian didn't get out of the car, he drove directly through the Chengtian Gate, entered the Forbidden City from the noon gate, and according to Zhang Cheng's instructions, turned left and drove the car directly to the front of the Wuying Hall and stopped.

The arrival of the warrior chariot immediately attracted all the attention of the soldiers and eunuchs on duty outside the Wuying Palace.

Waiting for a few people to get out of the car, the eunuch guarding the gate of Wuying Hall stayed for a moment before shouting at a few people: "The emperor has a decree to announce the three angels to meet you!" ”

Luo Jian and the three of them took a big step and walked towards the Wuying Palace, today the three of them are wearing short-sleeved shirts and military pants in regular clothes, Bi Ting's clothes are angular, Liu Lan's military pants are still changed from Luo Jian's extra pants, and she herself has no clothes for him except for a camouflage uniform.

The combat boots of the three of them walked in unison, stepping on the "golden brick" floor of the Wuying Palace, showing a strong sense of rhythm.

The eyes of the ministers of civil and military affairs who had already gone to court in the main hall suddenly all looked at the three of them.

Luo Jian glanced at the entire hall, it was not much different from the palace in the Forbidden City, but the pattern was slightly smaller, and the civil and military ministers standing on the main hall were not densely packed, but there were more than a dozen people on each side, the civil ministers were in front, the military generals were behind, and it was Ma Shiying Ma Pavilion who stood in the front.

Looking at the front again, there was a wide chair on the platform in front, just came in from the outside, his eyes were not yet adapted, and the details were not clear, there was a big fat man in a dragon robe sitting on the chair, and two eunuchs were standing behind him.

Luo Jian and the three of them walked to the bottom of the platform in a few steps, clasped their fists at the big fat emperor on the stage, and said, "Luo Jian (Wang Qiang, Liu Lan) has seen the emperor!" ”

Shi Kefa, who was standing in the audience, saw that Luo Jian and the others didn't even bend down, and remembered the deep bow that Luo Jian and the others had when they saw their mother yesterday, and his face changed a few times.

Before the fat emperor Zhu Youxiang, who was sitting on the stage, could speak, a military general walked out of the ministers below, stepped forward a few steps, and said to Luo Jian and the others: "Why didn't the Duke of Wei Guo pay homage when he saw the emperor?" ”

Luo Jian turned his head and saw that it was Liu Kongzhao, the sincere man who had been to Jubaomen Square yesterday.

As soon as Liu Kongzhao's words came out, the ministers immediately discussed, Shi Kefa stepped forward and wanted to speak, but after thinking about it, he didn't know what to say, so he lowered his head and returned to the column.

"Oh, did you hear what I said yesterday? What do you want to dwell on today? Luo Jian said to Liu Kongzhao with a cold face.

"The ceremony cannot be abolished, although the three are angels, now they have been sent by God to assist the emperor, and they should pay homage with great gifts!" Among the ministers below, another official who looked like a royal history said.

Hearing him say this, Wang Qiang on the side was already impatient, and said to Luo Jian: "Chief, let's go, it's too annoying!" ”

Ma Shiying heard Wang Qiang say this, his heart tightened, and he was just about to go out of class to speak, when he heard the fat emperor Zhu Youxiang on the stage speak: "My virtue is shallow, I can't afford to be an angel gift, the Qing family can't be entangled in this matter anymore, give the three angels a seat quickly." ”

When the ministers heard this, they immediately fell silent.

After Zhu Youxiang finished speaking, he looked at Luo Jian and the three of them carefully, and finally his eyes stopped on Liu Lan for a long time, and Liu Lan was a little uncomfortable.

Several eunuchs moved a few brocade piers to the hall, and Luo Jian and the three of them were not polite, so they went over and sat down directly.

"Several angels came to Yangzhou, saved my Yangzhou soldiers and civilians, and also saved the capital, I thank the four angels for the people of Daming, oh, why didn't another angel arrive?" Only then did Zhu Youxiang realize that only three of the four angels he heard about came.

"Xiao Liu is entangled in Yangzhou affairs and can't come to Nanjing, please forgive the emperor." Luo Jian sat and arched his fist towards Zhu Youxiang.

Zhu Youxiang nodded with some regret and said, "Several angels came by the magic car, I don't know if this magic car is available now?" ”

Luo Jian originally wanted to tell Zhu Youxiang about the general trend of the world, but when he saw that Zhu Youxiang didn't say two words, he pulled it to the warrior car, and his impression of him was suddenly much worse.

"The car is outside the palace, and the emperor can see it when he leaves the hall." Luo Jian had no choice but to reply.

As soon as Zhu Youxiang heard this, he stood up from his seat and wanted to get up and go outside the hall to see.

"Please don't be impatient, the emperor has something to play!" As soon as Li Zhan, the right capital Yushi, saw that this early dynasty was about to end, he was so anxious that he hurriedly went out of work and said.

Zhu Youxiang stared at Li Zhan for a while, didn't sit down, thought for a while, and said, "It's not too late to talk about Li Qing's family tomorrow." As he spoke, he stepped down from his seat.

"Your Majesty! The so-called magic car is similar to a wooden ox and a horse, but it can walk on its own, the emperor should take state affairs as the priority, and don't indulge in strange tricks and tricks! ”

Seeing that Zhu Youxiang was about to come down, Wang Duo, a scholar, hurriedly stood up and said sharply.

When Zhu Youxiang heard this, he had no choice but to stop, but he was still standing on the platform and did not return to the throne.

Liu Lan was most annoyed to hear the word "strange tricks" on weekdays, and when she heard Wang Duo say this, she was so angry that she stood up and said to Wang Duo:

"Don't think of everything you haven't seen as 'tricks', okay? Without this car, I'm afraid Yangzhou City was broken by the Tartars! ”

Hearing Liu Lan say this, there was a lot of discussion below.

Ruan Dacheng walked out of the class and said: "The minister once sat in the magic car, and I also feel that it is not the word 'strange and skillful', and its magic can be known by us." ”

"What's so magical, I don't think it can even run as fast as a horse!" Liu Kongzhao stood up and said.

"You're a Pegasus in the sky, aren't you? Even your horse is going to be faster than this cart? Wang Qiang was very unconvinced, stood up and said.

Li Zhan stood in the class, seeing that everyone was discussing the warrior car, and looked at Zhu Guobi helplessly, and Zhu Guobi also gave a helpless look.

Qian Qianyi stood in the class and saw that everyone was discussing enthusiastically, and couldn't help but walk out of the class and said: "The big school field is not far from the palace, why don't you compare it there?" ”

"Good! All right! Sincerity Bo hurried to pick a BMW horse, let's go to the university to compete. When Zhu Youxiang heard this, he was immediately full of energy.
