Chapter 94 is so easy

Xu Guan was shocked when he heard this: "The Xuangong has vented the earth's qi, and the golden well is gushing with spring water, this is a bad omen, and it should be reported to the emperor immediately, and then move to a good location." As soon as he turned around, his heart suddenly moved, and he stopped and thought about it: "Supervising the construction of Tailing, headed by the Ministry of Rites, what do the officials of the other ministries think about this?" ”

Li Duo said: "The lower officials are responsible for building Luocheng, and when I heard that the water from Jinjing was rushed out to see it, the spring had been blocked, and the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, the deputy supervisor of Qintian, and Dai Gongcheng were reprimanding several soldiers, and they also whipped a chief, saying that the water spraying in Jinjing was nonsense and rumors.

Seeing their panicked expressions, the lower officials wanted to go down to the gold well to see what was going on in person, but they were stopped by the waiter of the Ministry of Rites to find an excuse to come back.

Xu Guanqi said: "What? They deliberately cover it up and don't report it? Why? Yes! The old man understood". Xu Guan suddenly couldn't help but smile coldly.

At the beginning, the exploration of the imperial mausoleum was the responsibility of the Ministry of Rites and the deputy supervisor of Qintian, as early as the beginning of the year when the emperor was seriously ill, the imperial mausoleum had been set to start the construction of the underground mausoleum, and now the cost has been extremely huge. If it was only then that it was discovered that the exploration was wrong and the feng shui was not good, the officials of the Ministry of Rites and the Qin Tianjian would have to lose their official positions and be dismissed, and they would naturally want to cover up the matter.

And Dai Yi, the eunuch of the celebrant supervisor, is in charge of the Tailing project, this kind of fat difference is not something that can be encountered casually, if you get a new exploration of the mausoleum site, it will be long-lasting, and when the emperor is re-selected, it may not be him to supervise the construction, so

Li Jie saw that Xu Guan was silent, and said: "The subordinate officials supervised the construction of the peripheral project, and the important place of the mausoleum was in charge of the officers and soldiers of the Shenji Battalion.

"Divine Machine Battalion?" When Xu Guan heard this name, he suddenly remembered Yang Ling, wasn't Yang Ling in charge of these officers and soldiers? He realized something in his heart, and suddenly laughed with a spring breeze on his face after a long while: "Li Jie, you have done a good job in this matter, but this matter involves the Ministry of Rites, Qin Tianjian, and Shenji Battalion, and Dai Yi is a close confidant of the prince of the inner minister, since it is just a rumor now, we can't just report it to the emperor like this, otherwise if the situation is not true, we will offend too many yamen." ”

Li Jie listened and said hurriedly: "My lord, a lot of silver is flowing in Tailing every day like flowing water, if you don't quickly investigate it now, I don't know how much money it will waste."

Xu Guan stretched out his hand to stop him, his tone softened, and he said with a heartfelt look: "Li Jie, you are thirty years old, and you are honored as a second-class waiter, young and promising, and the future is great, and the old man has always favored you."

You must know that the official career is sinister, these officials of the yamen are not fuel-efficient lamps, if you can't catch the real evidence, you will offend many characters in vain, and your career can have a great impact. The old man can't stay in the court for a few years, but you have a great future, why is the old man so reckless and delaying your future? ”。

Li Shilang gratefully bowed his hand and said: "The cultivation grace of the lord to the lower officials, the lower officials have always kept it in mind."

Xu Guan smiled and said: "Well, then listen to the old man, you immediately rush back to the cemetery, secretly investigate this matter, and once we have conclusive evidence, we will report this matter to the emperor."

Li Jie saw that Xu Shangshu was so cautious, so he had to give up. Xu Guan twisted his beard, looked at his back and smiled slightly, his heart was full of pride: The underground palace Jinjing is the most important place in the mausoleum, and in order to prevent the leakage of the internal organs, the officers and soldiers of the Shenji Battalion were built.

If what Li Jie said is true, and the people in the Shenji Battalion also know about it, then Yang Ling will not be able to escape the crime of bullying the king, Yang Ling, Yang Ling, you are deeply favored, and it is really not easy to bring you down, but now you are stepping on the iron shoes and finding nowhere to go, and it takes no effort to get it.

＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊

In the afternoon dynasty, Zhengde first received the first batch of envoys of the vassal kings who went to Beijing on the Golden Palace. Now the four princes of the king, the king of Jin, the king of Lu, and the king of Ning congratulated the new emperor on his accession to the throne The envoy has entered Beijing, in addition to the same thing as the congratulatory table, the tribute of the He Yi is mostly some mascots such as gold toad and jade Ruyi, although the gold is expensive, the gifts are not much. Only King Ning, Jiangxi, in addition to the ordinary gold beads and jade, carried up to the palace with a full 30 boxes, for a while the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty were all sideways.

The local vassal king said that he didn't have such wealth, even if the Jiangnan region was rich and the vassal king was rich enough to rival the country, how could he be so stupid and dare to show off so much in front of the emperor, and he was not afraid of violating the taboo of the Son of Heaven? All the ministers were a little curious for a while, and they didn't know what kind of gift King Ning was paying tribute to.

The valuable gifts paid by the kings and the singing officials will be called one by one and told the officials. However, these cages are not published on the gift list, and they do not look like valuables. Zhengde sat on the dragon chair, took the gift list presented by the little eunuch, and couldn't help but dance with his eyebrows after only a few glances.

On the side, Gu Dayong saw that the emperor only cared about the list, and hurriedly approached to remind a few words, Zhengde came to his senses, comforted the envoy of the vassal king, and received him in Honglu Temple, and then said impatiently: "You Aiqing can have a play, if there is nothing important, I will go to the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager to ask for peace."

Xu Guan, the secretary of the Ministry of Works, immediately went out of class and said: "Enlighten the emperor, the ministers have their own music."

Zhengde glared at this blind thing, and asked anxiously: "What's going on, Aiqing hurry up."

Xu Guan bowed and said: "The emperor ordered the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Industry, the Qin Tianjian, the Internal Affairs Office, and the Shenji Battalion to be responsible for the Tailing Project of the First Emperor. Tailing is the mausoleum of the first emperor, and the Shenji battalion is responsible for the construction of the underground palace and the layout of the organs, which is the most important place in the Tailing.

Emperor Zhengde said absentmindedly: "Well, I know, these two said that I wanted Yang Ling to take over the imperial village, and there were more miscellaneous things, and then I ordered him to go to the mausoleum." Do you still have a music? Since there is no retreat! ”

As soon as Zhengde returned to the harem, he said to Gu Dayong anxiously: "Hurry up, bring me the lanterns and fireworks offered by Uncle Ning." Gu Dayong hurriedly asked the little eunuch to carry in the two boxes, opened the lid of one box, and saw that there were lanterns neatly stacked in the boxes.

The gift to congratulate the new emperor on his ascension to the throne can be used in joyful colors, but the lanterns offered by King Ning did not use bright red, and the fancy kit and colorful lanterns were made of bamboo and silk in the shape of flowers, grasses, insects and fish, and the appearance was beautiful and beautiful, and I don't know how many skilled craftsmen used to make these many exquisite lanterns.

The yarn silk on the lamp is used in light colors, and some of the lanterns that are not tied into birds and beasts are painted on the silk with some character stories, the idea is exquisite, the poor ingenuity, and the Zhengde Emperor dances for it, and he can't close his mouth for a while.

Another box is opened but all kinds of fireworks, the middle is separated by soft cotton paper, although it is not clever for a while, but the colored paper wrapped in the outside of the fireworks are painted with this kind of fireworks when the explosion of the pattern, after reading it is even more provoking Zhengde's heart is itchy and scratchy, and he can't help but praise again and again: "The gifts given by the vassal kings, only the most dear heart of King Ning, is really a good thing." ”

Zhengde was very happy, Liu Jin accompanied Yang Ling walked in, the two had just gone to see the eunuch Jing Gonggong, the steward of the Jiaofang Division, this Jing Gonggong was not yet thirty years old, born white and fat, rich and rich, he saw that the Emperor Zhengde and the two celebrities in front of him jointly begged each other, and what he entrusted was only to temporarily delay the family of the offender to deal with such a trivial matter, and he was full of promises at the moment, in order to show his respect for the two, Jing Gonggong immediately took the tooth card and rushed to the Jiaofang Division in person, Yang Ling was relieved.

Yang Ling walked towards the Qianqing Palace, while thinking about how to open his mouth to Zhengde according to Liu Jin's strategy, but as soon as he stepped into the Dongnuan Pavilion, before he could speak, Zhengde grabbed his arm and said happily: "You guys came just in time, come and see the good things that King Ning has offered."

"King Ning?" Yang Ling was taken aback, since he came to the capital, he didn't think about the limited information he knew about this dynasty, he knew about King Ning, but this King Ning rebelled too incompetently, according to the development of history, it was not a scourge at all, so Yang Ling had never taken him too seriously, but when he suddenly heard his name, he couldn't help but be surprised.

Zhengde happily carried a heavy large firework and said, "Come, let's go to the Imperial Garden to set off fireworks!" ”

Yang Ling saw him swaying around like he was carrying a bazooka, so he hurriedly stepped forward and snatched the fireworks and said, "Your Majesty, be careful, there is fire in this kind of thing, but you can't be careless."

Gu Dayong listened to Yang Ling's words to save the danger of this thing, and only then did he carelessly carry the whole box to the emperor, and let him carry it with his own hands, if he accidentally ignited a branch, even if the emperor was unharmed, if he was just frightened, it would be enough to cut off his head, Gu Dayong's face turned pale with fright, and he hurriedly ran up to take the fireworks from Yang Ling's hands and put them in the box, and asked the little eunuch to quickly move the fireworks box.

Zhengde watched them carry the box away, and said reluctantly: "It's a pity, it's a pity, it's still early, and it's not the time to light the lanterns."

Yang Ling poured another bucket of cold water and said: "Your Majesty, now that you are still in the mourning period, if you put out colorful lanterns in the imperial garden, it will still be a trouble for the ministers to know about it, and besides, the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother will definitely refuse to agree."

Zhengde has a child's surname, although he often misses his father, but when he sees this novel and interesting thing, how can he bear to not touch his surname, but after listening to Yang Ling's words, he also knows that this matter cannot be caused by his own surname, and he can't help but feel sad.

Liu Jin saw that Emperor Zhengde was full of disappointment, and suddenly had an idea, and couldn't help laughing: "If the emperor wants to watch this fireworks, it's not impossible, but when he says it, the emperor will inevitably love the three scholars to blame."

Zhengde hurriedly said: "What good ideas does Lao Liu have?" Speak quickly, speak quickly! ”

Liu Jin smiled and said to the emperor: "The emperor has circled seven Zhuangzi, but he hasn't had time to take a look, if it's an excuse to go to the Huangzhuang to take a look, even if the scholars have a slight rebuke, they must not blame too much, when we get there, let's drill into the col, don't you want to light the lamp, and set the fire if you want to?" ”

Zhengde's eyes lit up, and he immediately stroked his palms and said, "Okay, I will go to my own Zhuangzi and see, can they rap again?" Yang Ling, you go back and prepare quickly, I will go to Huangzhuang in the afternoon to have a look."

Yang Ling saw Liu Jin looking at himself and made a look, and suddenly his heart suddenly changed: "Liu Jin is really good, his method is to kill two birds with one stone, not only as the emperor intended, but also helped me." Yang Ling stopped the idea of dissuading the emperor from leaving the palace, and immediately said: "Yes, the minister will do it immediately."

＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊

Yang Ling returned to the Zhenfu Division, led four personal soldiers Pegasus to rush back to Gao Laozhuang, and did not even return home, and went to the big tent of the Shenji Camp first. At this time, the officers and soldiers were cutting trees and weeding on the back mountain, and they wanted to build a few barracks. Yang Ling rushed to the mountain to find Liu Biao, told him that the emperor was coming to set off fireworks, and carefully instructed Liu Biao, Liu Biao immediately gathered his own soldiers and personally took people into the mountain to arrange.

Yang Ling made all the arrangements and hurriedly returned home. He didn't come back overnight, and although Han Youniang didn't believe that something would happen to him, they were inevitably worried in their hearts, and they didn't sleep well all night.

At this time, a few people were enjoying the shade under the grape trellises in the garden, and now the weather is almost June, the weather is sultry, and the sleep last night is not very good, several people are not energetic, a little drowsy.

Han Youniang supported Xia Ye, and inadvertently looked up, saw Yang Ling striding along the corridor, and immediately jumped up and said happily: "Xianggong is back!" The other people looked back and saw Yang Ling happily greeted him, Yang Ling's eyes swept away, and saw that there were only four people, including the young lady, the Zhang family, Su San and Xue Limei, and the Gao Wenlan girl was not beside her, so she said, "Isn't Miss Gao here?" ”

Xue Limei said: "We invited her to drink tea under the corridor, but Miss Gao said that she was already a slave in the house, and she had to wait with a maid on the side, and the young lady sister couldn't bear to see her, so she had to send her away."

When the young lady saw that Xianggong was sweating, she hurriedly pulled him to sit down under the porch, and said, "Xianggong, look at the sweat you are running, drink some tea to quench your thirst first, how is Miss Wenxin now?" ”

As soon as the young lady mentioned that Miss Wenxin, several women were a little nervous, and the four pairs of wonderful eyes couldn't help but focus on him, Yang Ling saw that there were no outsiders around, so he lowered his voice and said: "Don't worry, Miss Gao is okay for the time being, I have entrusted the people of the Teaching Department to take care of it."

The young lady was relieved when she heard this, and the sister-in-law Zhang couldn't help but clasp her hands together and said: "Thank God, such an innocent good girl, fortunately, the sky has eyes."

Yang Ling sighed: "You guys, are the prisoners so easy to save?" The emperor did not forgive her identity as a prisoner, and whoever brought her home would be guilty of raiding her family and destroying her family! ”

The young lady Zhang is from the countryside, Su San and Xue Limei are fiddling with piano, chess, calligraphy and painting all day long, who knows the stakes and disadvantages, as soon as they heard Yang Ling's words, their faces changed, and Su San said worriedly: "Is this matter so serious?" Is that why this girl can't be saved? ”

Yang Ling shook his head and said, "Not really, I did ask for a way, but I haven't had time to tell the emperor yet." Now that the emperor is coming to Huangzhuang, he will definitely have dinner here tonight, and I thought about it again and again along the way, if you accompany me to see the emperor tonight, maybe you will be able to succeed."

The young lady wondered, "What? Xianggong wants me to see the emperor?! ”

Yang Ling nodded and smiled: "According to the emperor's surname, I am sixty percent sure that the emperor can pardon Miss Gao with this method, if you go to the emperor to show your face and make a sick appearance, then you will have at least ninety percent certainty." It's just that I'm afraid that you will be so afraid that you won't even be able to say anything when you see the emperor, and if he sees the flaws, it won't be beautiful."

Han Youniang listened and thought seriously for a moment, and said resolutely: "Xianggong, even if I see the emperor and the emperor, I am not afraid, you tell me how to do it, I will definitely be able to do it."

Yang Ling comforted: "You don't have to worry, this emperor doesn't have a little arrogance, he is very talkative, you have seen him before."

Han Youniang was surprised: "What? When have I met the Emperor? ”

Yang Ling smiled and said, "Don't you remember those East Palace attendants who came to our house to congratulate us on moving to the capital?" The guy who calls you sister-in-law for a while and your young sister for a while is the current emperor."

＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊

The Shenji battalion is in charge of firearms, and the soldiers are good at using firearms and artillery, but now the officers and soldiers are holding in their hands the giant fireworks offered by King Ning of Jiangxi. As soon as Yang Ling returned to the village, the first thing he thought of was to prevent mountain fires, so he instructed Liu Biao to go into the mountains to find a place with little grass and trees.

Liu Biao first found the local protection in the village to find out the surrounding terrain and landforms, and according to the guidance of the local protection, he quickly found a canyon, where the grass and trees were scarce, and the only hundred trees were also cut off by Liu Biao and dragged away, leaving only bare trunks.

It was getting dark, Zhengde rushed to Gao Laozhuang under the escort of the Imperial Forest Army, and the Han general behind him carried fifteen boxes, in addition to ten boxes of fireworks, he actually brought five boxes of lanterns.

By the time the group of men and horses had entered the canyon along the mountain path, it was already dark. Yang Ling saw that he brought five boxes of colored lanterns, and simply asked someone to take them out and hang them all on the trunks of the hundred and ten trees, and once the five large boxes of colored lanterns made of bamboo and colored silk were opened and lit, they were suddenly like sparks in the sky, and the originally dark and desolate valley was immediately filled with a mysterious and romantic atmosphere, which made people suspect that they were in the middle of the galaxy.

Such a beautiful night scene is not only that Zhengde has never seen before, but Liu Jin, Gu Dayong, and the officers and soldiers who came with him are all relaxed and happy, for fear of disturbing this fairyland-like atmosphere.

When the sound of "tom", the first fireworks rose into the air, and then it was like a golden chrysanthemum and silver filament blooming all over the sky, one would be like a meteor shower, one would be like a fire tree and silver flowers, and one would be like thousands of fire dragons, silver weeping willows, crimson, blue, golden color, and the purple and red were extremely gorgeous.

Yang Ling stood beside Zhengde, looking up at the beautiful night sky at this time, and only regretted that he did not bring his young lady to enjoy this rare beauty.

The splendor is always short-lived, and the fireworks that have been made by many skilled craftsmen and how many silver taels have been spent have finally burned out, and the valley is filled with the smell of gunsmoke. Yang Ling inhaled the choking smell of fire vigorously, and secretly swore in his heart that before he was going to leave this world next year, he would definitely let the young lady enjoy an incomparably beautiful fireworks, the scene must be bigger than this time, and the atmosphere would be more romantic, so that the young lady would always have a romantic dream in her heart.

Until he stepped into the Weiwubo Mansion in high spirits, Emperor Zhengde was still excited, such a scene was really an irresistible impact on a child who had lived in the deep palace for a long time, but was full of romance, so that he had been talking about those fireworks with great interest at the sumptuous banquet.

Emperor Lao Tzu doesn't eat, how can others start to move? Everyone had to stand there together. Zhengde was excited for a long time before he smiled at Yang Ling: "Yang Ling, young lady cough, where is your wife?" Why didn't I see it? ”

Yang Ling was secretly happy in his heart, and hurriedly got up and said: "Back to the emperor, since Humble Jing knew that the emperor was coming, she was also very happy, but she is a woman, so it is not good for her to come out to see you."

Zhengde waved his hand and said: "Where are these rules, please come out to meet her, hehe, I knew it was so fun, you should have taken her with you." By the way, you haven't told her who I am, have you? ”

Yang Ling hurriedly said: "The emperor has ordered, how dare the minister disobey?" She doesn't know you're the boy yet."

Zhengde was overjoyed, as if he had found something interesting again, he hurriedly said: "I want her to come out soon, hehe, she must be frightened when she sees me."

When the young lady came out, Yang Ling, Zhengde, and Han Youniang were all surprised. The young lady deliberately pretended to be shocked, but although she already knew that this emperor was the little boy she had seen before, she was still very nervous, although it was contrived, it was seven points true.

Yang Ling and Zhengde were really shocked, although Yang Ling said that she wanted her to pretend to be like she had been sick in bed for a long time, but she didn't expect Han Youniang to be like this. With messy hair and a yellow face, as if she had just dragged her sick body out of bed, Zhengde couldn't help but be surprised when he saw her, and pointed at her in a delighted manner, "You...... You...... How does it look like this? ”

Han Youniang touched her face nervously, and she didn't know if the ginger juice that Su San painted would be seen flawed. Yang Ling saw that the young lady was still a little nervous, and hurriedly replied for her: "Your Majesty, Humble Jing has not recovered since her last serious illness, and this body is getting weaker and weaker, and Weichen is really ...... Alas! If she had Lang Zhong by her side all the time, it would have been better to recuperate slowly, but cough! ”

Zhengde said disappreciably: "Then you can find a good Langzhong, can't you even afford to hire a Langzhong?" ”

Yang Ling said with a sad face: "The emperor doesn't know, the clumsy Jing suffers from a woman's disease, not to mention that someone needs to serve at any time, it is really inconvenient for a man, the minister can't find a suitable Langzhong to look for it, and then he finally found a Langzhong, not only has superb medical skills, but also a woman, it is really the most suitable person, but she coughs!" Don't mention it! ”。

Zhengde listened inexplicably and asked, "Since you have found a suitable Langzhong, why don't you hire her for outpatient treatment?" What do you have to hide? ”

Liu Jin glanced at Yang Ling, leaned in front of Zhengde and said softly: "Your Majesty, Lord Yang would rather let his wife be sick than dare to find that girl, because that girl is Gao Tinghe's daughter."

Zhengde was stunned for a moment, and then said in surprise: "Gao Tinghe? Who is Gao Tinghe? Isn't his daughter amazing? Since he is a langzhong, why can't he give it to the young lady...... Mrs. Yang to see a doctor? ”

Liu Jin almost had a cerebral congestion when he heard this, he took two breaths of air in a row, and then said with a strange face: "Your Majesty, Gao Tinghe is the imperial doctor who diagnosed and treated the first emperor's condition."

Zhengde's face suddenly sank, he looked at Yang Ling and the sick and weak Han Youniang, and was silent for a long time before slowly asking, "Is it his daughter?" I remember that his daughter seemed to have been punished, and where is that woman now? ”

Liu Jin hurriedly said: "Back to the emperor, Imperial Physician Gao was beheaded for dereliction of duty and misdiagnosis, and his daughter was sentenced to be a slave in the Jiaofang Division for eternity."

"Oh? Faculty Division? The Yamen Zhengde of the Jiaofang Division naturally knew, but no one had ever mentioned to him what the Jiaofang Division had besides the court ceremonial music, singing and dancing, and he couldn't help but say strangely: "Joining the Jiaofang Division as a slave?" What are you doing there? ”

Liu Jin laughed and said: "It's to accompany people to drink, dance, and make men happy."

Liu Jin spoke exquisitely, but this sentence can't be found at all, first of all, the Teaching Workshop Division does have this kind of musicianship, who knows if the Teaching Workshop Division arranged for Miss Gao is not this kind. As for the other, more humble one, if anyone really finds fault, a sentence that the emperor is young, so as not to defile the holy hearing, is enough to deal with it.

Zhengde was really dissatisfied when he heard this, and he threw away the chastity that he couldn't understand yet, and this kind of punishment made him feel as if there was no punishment. This kind of slave is too happy, is this for slavery or for pleasure?

Zhengde flicked his sleeves unhappily and said, "Hong Zhong, that old fool, what kind of punishment is this?" Liu Jin, tomorrow, you will go to the Jiaofang Division to pass on my message, and transfer that daughter of Gao He He to Weiwubo Mansion as a domestic slave, and specialize in diagnosing Mrs. Yang! ”
