Chapter 366: See the Emperor
Knock knock
Yue Kang knocked on the wooden door of the Qing Yuan Chamber.
"Haha, Junior Brother Yue, you didn't expect us to meet in the capital!" After Tong Lao opened the door, he smiled.
"Brother Tong, it's so hard for me to lie to you!" Yue Kang said with a happy expression.
"Hehe, it's my brother, it's wrong, I've been hiding my identity from you, come, come in, brother will be fined three glasses of wine to accompany you, isn't it still possible?" As Tong Lao spoke, he pulled Yue Kang into the box.
"Brother Yue, long time no see."
A familiar voice rang out in the box.
Yue Kang was startled, he only cared about talking to Tong Lao just now, and didn't notice that there were other people in the box.
Yue Kang turned his head to look, and Fan Xuguang, who had a mysterious identity, stood up with a smile and slightly arched his fist towards Yue Kang.
At first, Yue Kang was stunned for a moment, and then he saw Yue Kang clenching his fists, bowing down, and facing Fan Xuguang for a long time, and said with a respectful face: "Yue Kang, see the emperor"
Tong Lao and Fan Xuguang were stunned at the same time, the two looked at each other, and both shook their heads.
"Hahahaha, I really didn't see the wrong person, I didn't expect you to guess my identity, excuse me!" Fan Xuguang's expression showed a hint of relief.
"It's the emperor." Yue Kang stood up straight, a gentle smile on his face.
Tong Lao looked at Yue Kang incredulously, "How do you know?" ”
Yue Kang smiled and said lightly: "Guess." ”
Guess? Tong Lao gave Yue Kang a thumbs up.
"Alright, sit down! At the banquet, there is no emperor, and they are all good brothers. Fan Xuguang said to Yue Kang.
Yue Kang was not coquettish, he sat down, and then he said to Fan Xuguang: "Your Majesty, does what you said before count?" ”
After hearing this, Tong Lao reproached: "Little Brother Yue, the emperor is the king of a country, how can his words not count." ”
"What did I say before?" Fan Xuguang asked suspiciously.
"Last time at Brother Tong's house, the emperor said that he wanted to be brothers with me, does the emperor still remember, look at this brother, do I don't have to bow down when I see you in the future?" Yue Kang said with a smile, even if the other party is the emperor, but Yue Kang does not have the habit of kneeling, therefore
Speak out.
"Oh, haha, I see, count and count, don't kneel and don't kneel, it's just a courtesy, why bother, we are brothers, there is no distinction between monarchs and ministers, in the future, I will call you Brother Yue, you call me Brother Fan, this is the best." Fan Xuguang said with a smile.
"This" Yue Kang deliberately hesitated.
"Brother Yue, when did you become so squeamish, I don't want you to be a person!" Fan Xuguang said directly.
"Your Majesty, I listen to you, oh no, it's Brother Fan" Yue Kang was happy in his heart, it was really an honor to be called a brother and a brother to the emperor.
Tong Lao glanced at Yue Kang meaningfully, and his eyes seemed to say, "Good boy, you have a bigger face than my old man!"
Fan Xuguang asked how to guess his identity as the emperor.
Yue Kang replied truthfully, since Brother Tong can mobilize the Royal Guard, it proves that the official position must be not small, while I guess Brother Tong's identity, and think of his respect for you, I know that your identity is more noble than Brother Tong, and you are so young, I make a bold guess
You are either the current emperor or the prince's elder brother, only these two identities are most likely.
Tong Lao and Fan Xuguang both listened to Yue Kang with a smile on their faces, and Fan Xuguang couldn't help but ask, "Then why don't you guess, I am the prince, or the prince?" Why do you recognize me as the emperor? ”
Yue Kang smiled slightly, and said: "It's very simple, because when I first came in, I saw the emperor beside you with golden light, and there were nine mighty dragons hovering around you, and there was a kind of kingly spirit, if the surging river was rolling and rushing, wouldn't all this prove that you are the emperor?" ”
Tong Lao and Fan Xuguang both smiled after hearing this, and they both pointed at Yue Kang and laughed.
Tong Lao gave a thumbs up to Yue Kang again, "You kid, your kung fu is really a must!" ”
Yue Kang smiled very "shyly".
"Brother Yue, have you guessed what Mr. Tong's identity is now?" Fan Xuguang asked again.
Yue Kang cleared his throat and said: "Well, Brother Tong's identity is easier to guess, Brother Tong has elegant manners, is highly educated, knowledgeable about ancient and modern, and knows everything about poetry, so I will narrow down the scope of my talk to civil officials, and then speculate one by one, and now I have come to the conclusion of Brother Tong."
The identity should be a university scholar, Brother Tong, am I right? ”
Tong Lao and Fan Xuguang couldn't help but gasp, their faces were shocked, "You kid old man, I have nothing to say, it's just a monster, even if it's a civil official, how can you conclude that I'm a scholar?" ”
"Yes! There are many learned and profound civil officials, and there are more talented people who can recite poetry and make right things, why do you guess that they are university scholars? Fan Xuguang asked curiously.
"Because Brother Fan calls Brother Tong Mr., in my opinion, even if the emperor loves the people like a son and respects the ministers and generals, it is impossible to call the courtiers Mr. casually! The title of Mr. doesn't sound like anything at first glance, but when you call it out, Brother Fan, the meaning is different. "Yue Kang
Say it truthfully.
"Okay, you Yue Kang, I didn't expect you to be so delicate, I really admire you for my brother!" Fan Xuguang said appreciatively: "Yes, Mr. Tong is a scholar of the Hanlin Academy, and he is my enlightenment teacher, so I call him sir." ”
"You kid, you kid, you let my brother say what is good about you, it's a freak." Tong Lao scolded with a smile.
"Hahahaha," Yue Kang laughed.
Then the three of them chatted briefly, and then the shopkeeper brought the fragrant appetizers.
Fan Xuguang, who was already tired of eating the delicacies of the mountains and seas, ordered a lot of light dishes, which he couldn't eat in the palace, every time he asked the imperial dining room to make these light and delicious dishes, the people in the imperial dining room always said that those dishes were not nutritious, and eating them was not good for the body, day by day
Xuguang's ears have given birth to squirts.
"Little Brother Yue! Didn't you bring your wine? Tong Lao really misses Yue Kang's self-brewed wine, he hasn't drunk it since he came to the capital, but he feels something.
Yue Kang smiled bitterly, "Brother Tong, this time I am specially to send Jiulong Ding to the capital, and I am not here to enjoy the mountains and rivers, and besides, I am not in the mood to drink!" The matter of Jiulongding, how can I Yue Kang be sloppy! I'll tell you the truth, I don't dare to drink too much these days, I'm afraid
It's that someone is secretly dealing with me, but even if I take precautions, I still fall into the way of others. ”
"Brother Yue, I know everything about you and Wenxuan, don't worry! I can't hurt you if I have me. Who made you my good brother? Fan Xuguang smiled.
"With Brother Fan's words, my heart is much more steady." That's what Yue Kang was waiting for.
"Little Brother Yue, I think you've already guessed it! Today, I arrived in time because I was ordered by the emperor. Tong Lao interjected.
Yue Kang nodded and said, "I knew that it wouldn't be such a coincidence." ”
"Wen Xuan is really your Bai family's Bai Haoxuan, who has been missing for many years?" Fan Xuguang asked again.
"Indeed, over the years, he has been imprisoning his father-in-law, and he has never stopped dealing with the Bai family secretly." Yue Kang said truthfully, he vaguely felt that Fan Xuguang would not favor Bai Haoxuan, otherwise how could he send Tong Lao to rescue him.
"Don't worry, he can't make any big waves, don't think I don't know what he does." Fan Xu's eyes were shining, and he looked confident.
Yue Kang smiled slightly, with the emperor giving him the control, what else did he have to scruple about.
"Brother Yue, you can't act rashly during this time, you will soon see a good show, and some people can't help it." Fan Xuguang said meaningfully.
Although Yue Kang didn't understand what Fan Xuguang meant, he faintly noticed something, Fan Xuguang didn't say it, he naturally wouldn't ask, in short, the emperor was on his side.
After that, Tong Lao asked about Jiulong Ding again, and asked Yue Kang if he could hand over Jiulong Ding after five days, and Yue Kang promised that there was no problem.
Tong Lao didn't know what medicine was sold in Yue Kang's gourd, and said that if it really didn't work, he had a way.
Fan Xuguang has been sitting aside, listening to the conversation between the two, Yue Kang clearly knows in his heart that even if he can't hand over the Jiulong Ding Emperor, he will definitely not punish him, sure enough, as Yue Kang expected, the Jiulong Ding used to worship the ancestors has already been fired in other official kilns, and Fan Xuguang has not had it from beginning to end
Count on Yue Kang, because he knows that Yue Kang has a great enemy, and then he can destroy his Nine Dragon Ding.
Yue Kang was stunned, but still said, the other four Nine Dragon Tripods are now on the way to the capital, I believe that they will be able to reach the capital tomorrow, Yue Kang made a clever move this time, from the fact that he knew that this time the burning of the Nine Dragon Tripods was the meaning of the prince, he was a little uneasy, because it happened before
Those things are related to your prince's mansion.
Obviously, the prince's mansion did not have a good heart towards the Bai family, Yue Kang did not know the intention of letting the Bai family burn the Nine Dragon Ding, but Yue Kang guessed that the other party would definitely start from the Nine Dragon Ding, originally thought that the other party would rob the Nine Dragon Ding halfway, but he did not expect that the road to the capital was safe, which made Yue
Kang was puzzled for a while, but today he knew that the other party had already made a move on the Nine Dragons.
When he came to the capital from the Bai family, he asked Meng Tangxin to transport the other four Nine Dragon Tripods to the capital every two days, what he was afraid of was that the Nine Dragon Tripods would be damaged, and he was really expected.
Fan Xuguang and Tong Lao listened to Yue Kang and his backhand, and they both sincerely praised Yue Kang's intelligence.
Yue Kang smiled, and he didn't blush when he was praised for being fluttering.
Then the three of them stopped talking about the issue.
"It's a shame that we don't have good wine!" Tong Lao said after taking a sip of wine, although the wine on their table was all famous and good wine, Tong Lao felt that it was still a little worse than Yue Kang's wine.
"Mr. Tong's appetite seems to be getting bigger and bigger!" Fan Xuguang said with a smile.
Suddenly, Yue Kang suddenly thought of something, and hurriedly took out the bag of tea that Bai Fuxing gave him when he came, and showed off like a baby in front of the two.
