Chapter 163: Entering Beijing and Entering the Huitong Pavilion
On the way back to the museum, the long man told two stories of "fairy jumping" that spread in the market, and everyone looked at each other.
In the final analysis, it is just a romantic debt caused by going out to business or a scholar who is greedy for money and lustful, and several people are teenagers, and they are very curious about the relationship between men and women, so they have to ask more.
I really didn't have any other thoughts, after all, the woman's body shape was more enchanting, and her appearance was not very good. Not to mention anything else, but these people have seen sisters and their own maids, and there are many excellent ones.
Seeing the disapproving appearance of the young men, the chief couldn't help but say: "Don't underestimate these market methods, a few sons should not underestimate these market methods, there is evil here." If the people who are fooled are all small households, how much money can they extort? There is no shortage of sons from good families who have been deceived. ”
Liu Congyun shook his fan and said, "Could it be that they have other means?" ”
The chief replied: "The villain has heard two mouths. In addition to colluding with the head snake and sheltering in the government, this 'fairy jump' is divided into long and short games, some of which are used for medicine, and some are the girl's own capital, which is interesting. "There was a bit of a slurring between the words.
Wang Qi listened interestingly, and just wanted to ask in detail, he saw Liu Congyun quietly pointing to Dao Idiot and Lu Bing.
Wang Qi said: "Okay, I know that they are not good, and if they don't provoke, they will enter Beijing after staying in Liangxiang for two days." ”
Lu Bing frowned slightly, and hesitated: "This place is so close to the capital, and the people's customs are so corrupt, what about the capital?" ”
A simple young man can't afford to be hurt, even if he knows the height of his eyebrows and eyes in the palace, but for the world outside the palace, Xiao Lu Bing is still too unfamiliar.
The education he received since he became sensible was that "all good and filial piety come first, and all evil and fornication come first", and now when he hears about such things, he really can't stand it. It's not that I can't stand the existence of bad people, but I can't stand the connivance of the government.
The chief looked at him unhappily, didn't dare to answer directly, and looked at Wang Qi.
Wang Qi said with a smile: "No matter where it is, there is no shortage of people who are out of the way. However, the security in the capital is good, if you don't go to the capital, you don't know how many officials there are, and the officialdom is complicated, who knows which fat sheep has a backer behind it. Even a dry old man walking on the street may be a Hanlin, and there are a few powerful students under the door. ”
When Lu Bing heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief, and when Wang Qi saw this, he shook his head and said, "Don't worry, I'm afraid that the person who dares to bully you hasn't been born yet." ”
Lu Bing seemed puzzled, and his face was different. Wang Qi said: "Not to mention Lord Lu's merit from the dragon, the promotion is imminent; Let's just talk about your relationship with Your Highness, which one of you dares to bully you without opening your eyes! ”
Lu Bing laughed twice and said, "How can I rely on His Highness's momentum." When it comes to the relationship with His Royal Highness, your brothers and Your Highness are not inferior to others, and when you arrive in Beijing, your brothers are also majestic. ”
To be ordinary, Wang Qi was about to be proud when he heard this, but now he just raised his eyebrows at Liu Congyun, "hehe" and said with a smile: "San Lang and Boss Chen are going to be promoted and make a fortune!" ”
Liu Congyun glanced at Wang Qi, his eyes were a little complicated.
In the reading of the companions, excluding Lu Bing, Wang Qi was originally the lord of Shang County and became the in-law of the prince, which was the most decent; But the prince went to Beijing to succeed the emperor, and Wang Qi's identity became embarrassing. Since it is the honor guest of Xingwangfu, there is no reason to leave Xingfan, unless the prince ascends the throne and the sisters are princesses. Only then can Wang Qi stay in Beijing, but the price is the retirement of officialdom within three generations.
Which one will it be?
The prince is filial piety, and the two sisters are from the same property, can they really enjoy the supreme power in the capital alone and leave the palace aside?
With the temper of the son, it is more likely to be the latter.
Liu Congyun's eyes couldn't help but widen, and he quickly glanced at Wang Qi and Dao Idiot.
The two brothers couldn't see anything, did they not expect this, or did they have a way to deal with it?
After speaking, everyone arrived at Guanyi Street.
Because the prince has moved, martial law here has also been lifted. Only here is the pavilion, and there are still 200 palace guards, and there are more than 60 palace subordinates who have no grade in the palace.
Fan told everyone to come back before dark, but now the twilight was hazy and a little late.
Everyone was worried in their hearts and went to Fan's place.
Fan's eyes were red and his face was stained with tears, and everyone was shocked when they saw it.
Without waiting for everyone to open their mouths to inquire in detail, Fan Shi had already said with tears in his eyes: "There is an envoy in the capital just now, and His Royal Highness has been enthroned as the emperor this afternoon...... Ordered me to wait until tomorrow to enter Beijing......"
Everyone was surprised at first, but then they reacted with great joy. Even Wang Qi, who was originally complicated, also showed a sincere smile.
These days, everyone is in suspense. If there is no such edict, whoever is the dragon chair will not be willing to do anything to the vassal king. With this edict, if the prince cannot ascend the throne smoothly, it will be a catastrophe. Even they, the members of the royal palace, may not end up well.
Compared with the stakes of life, everything else is behind. Even Wang Qi, although he was embarrassed by his identity, he never thought about looking forward to the prince not ascending the throne.
Fan's tears couldn't help but flow down again, and Lu Bing stepped forward to persuade: "Your Highness has successfully ascended the throne, and my mother should be happy, why are you crying again?" ”
Fan Shi hurriedly wiped away his tears, nodded and said, "Mother is happy, Mother doesn't cry." See you tomorrow, I have to change my words, I can no longer be called 'Your Highness', I want to be called 'Holy Lord'. ”
Lu Bing scratched the back of his head and said: "I've called His Royal Highness for more than ten years, but I really can't call it at first glance." ”
Fan Zhengse said: "If you can't call it, you have to call it, the most important rules in the palace, don't make a mistake in the rules, give the palace ...... Discredit the saint. ”
When everyone heard this, they all looked at Fan's, and Lu Bing was a little puzzled: "Mother, can we also enter the palace?" ”
Fan said: "It's not just about entering the palace, the meaning of the saint is to order me to take you to live in the palace temporarily." ”
Even if Lu Bing was a little curious about the palace, he also knew that the palace was full of nobles. The princess is loving, and she is usually exempted from A-Niang's worship ceremony, in front of the harem nobles, A-Niang is not going to worship non-stop. Therefore, instead of joy on his face, he showed some worry.
Fan touched his son's brain and said, "When the saint first enters the palace, someone must take care of him. Even if the saint doesn't mention it, the princess has not arrived, and I have to take the initiative to ask to enter the palace. ”
Lu Bing nodded and said, "My son knows ......."
The night passed in a hurry, and everyone had different thoughts.
The next day, they all got up early, and everyone's face was full of joy.
In addition to these two hundred and sixty people, the luggage and belongings that the prince brought with him when he traveled, as well as the logistics baggage carried by the previous escort army, were all in the pavilion. More than 200 people rode horses, surrounded by dozens of carriages, and left the good hometown in a mighty way.
Dao idiot, Lu Bing and others all rode horses and followed Fan's carriage.
At the beginning of the morning (seven o'clock in the morning), I set off and arrived in the capital in an hour and a half.
The current capital is still the plan of Taizong, the square city, and the nine gates are opened. However, due to the increase in the number of people in the capital and the multiplication of people's livelihood, it was impossible to live in it, and many houses were built outside the southern city.
Many Jingwei are stationed here, and the guards are safe and orderly.
However, because there is no city wall, the rich and wealthy officials will still buy houses in the city, after all, the Mongolian border is not once or twice, or even under the gate of the capital.
Most of the people living outside the city were merchants and ordinary people, and when they saw the mighty convoy on the official road, the guards were all dressed as military masters, so they all avoided it from a distance.
Looking at the towering city wall in front of them, Lu Bing and Liu Congyun couldn't help but feel a little excited. Even the Taoist idiot looked at it intently.
The Ming Dynasty built the capital of Yandi, because of the national policy of "the Son of Heaven guards the country", the city wall of the capital was built extremely tall and majestic. Compared with the permanent population of the capital exceeding 20 million in later generations, the population of the capital at this time was less than 700,000, so in the eyes of the Taoist idiot, this continuous house and endless flow of pedestrians and carriages are really nothing.
He is more satisfied with the natural environment, only that the sky is bluer, the grass is greener, and the roads are wider.
Lu Bing is too busy, for a young man who has never left An Lu, the capital is too spectacular, too prosperous, and there are too many people.
There are three gates in the south city wall, Zhengyang Gate in the middle, Xuanwu Gate in the west, and Chongwen Gate in the east. Zhengyang Gate is the main gate of the capital, and it is the gate where the emperor travels, and it is usually closed. The military and civilians entered Beijing to go through the Xuanwu Gate and the Chongwen Gate, because the Chongwen Gate set up a customs yamen, so the merchants and freight passed through this gate, and the others went to the Xuanwu Gate.
After the Dao idiot and the other people, two hundred guards, entered the Xuanwu Gate, someone responded and placed them in the garrison of the Son of Heaven's guard camp. Fan and Lu Bing were introduced into the palace by internal officials, and other members of the royal palace were led to the same hall where the yamen of the military department was located.
Originally, it was used to house foreign vassal envoys, but later the envoys of the feudal kings and local officials from all over the country went to Beijing on errands, and some stayed here.
The hall is divided into the south hall and the north hall, with 376 rooms in each hall, and each hall is divided into six rooms. Yesterday, with the entourage of the palace who entered Beijing, the internal officials have entered the palace with the new emperor, and the officials are stationed in the South Pavilion; These people who entered Beijing today are stationed in the North Pavilion.
The Huitong Pavilion is subordinate to the Ministry of War, and the person in charge is only the ambassador of the official of the Nine Pins and the deputy envoy of the Deputy Nine Pins.
But there were a few officials in front of him, and the officials with warm faces at the entrance of the North Pavilion were obviously not the configuration of the nine products, because the peacocks were embroidered on the supplementary clothes.
Sure enough, an official wearing a quail (nine products) raised his voice to introduce to everyone, a certain squire of the military department is here, greeting all the heroes from the dragon.
Dao idiot and Wang Qi glanced at each other, and helplessly led everyone to kneel.
The soldier had already inquired clearly, and knew that the people who entered Beijing the next day were all members of the Wupin Palace, but he knew in his heart that there was no product now, which did not mean that there would be no product tomorrow or the day after tomorrow.
The new emperor ascended the throne, and Garn divided the old subordinates, which was also the practice of all dynasties.
In other words, those people yesterday were already quality officials, and maybe after being promoted, they would be officials in the same hall, and even one or two people with higher grades than them would not be able to keep it. Today, these people, after all, have not yet come out, even if they are sealed, five or six products.
However, about the news of the new emperor, the bigwigs in the capital have already found out about it.
I know that the new emperor has several companions, and he can't be with ordinary people......
