Chapter 203: The Storm in the Capital (3)

, today's big outbreak, updating 20,000 prisons. Brothers, look at it, let's do it,

Riding the "wind" in the Forbidden City, Di Haonan's mood was extremely comfortable. And the wind is a revisit, and it was only chained to the stable before, but now it is revenge.

One person and one horse wandering around the Forbidden City, you can't do it without being eye-catching. The royal forest soldiers, eunuchs, and palace maids who came and went on duty were all stunned.

"It's too arrogant!"

"Who is this?"

Several royal forest soldiers wanted to go up to stop and ask, but when they got closer, they found that the other party was wearing a python robe and a jade belt, and they suddenly stopped.

What a great way to get it!

A few Guardsmen, look at me. I look at you and shake my head. Don't be nosy! They didn't bring weapons anyway!

When he looked at the man on the horse again, Deng Haonan had already passed by a gust of wind.

Seeing that I saw the Jinjian Palace, six rows of civil and military officials were walking in line, seeing that they were all very old, and it was really a good perseverance to walk for an hour to go to the court.

Na Haonan swept past and rushed in front of them, which immediately attracted the attention of this group of old guys.

"This, this, this"

The ministers pointed to Na Haonan in front of them, speechless in surprise.

"It's so unbelievable!"

Zuodu Yushi Cao Yubian immediately burst into drinks, but Deng Haonan ignored him, and he was suddenly angry.

The six ministers in front were surprisingly calm, and with their experience, those who dared to ride horses in the Forbidden City were either super unprovoked people or super crazy people, and neither of them could be provoked.

"Who is this?" The military department Shangshu urged Chengxiu to ask.

The Ministry of Works, Shangshu Lai, next to him, looked at it. said: "I can't see clearly, it doesn't look very old, which prince is eighty percent!" ”

The other side. Huang Liji was a little puzzled and asked, "It seems that this person is here to go to the court!" ”

Li Guo, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites next to him, said: "It seems that all the orders have arrived today, except for the Jinghai Marquis Deng Haonan who has not arrived, it won't be him!" ”

Huang Liji smiled bitterly and said, "Eight or nine is not far from ten!" ”

"That's bold!" Li Guo was stunned and said: "Later, these people will probably impeach him collectively!" ”

Huang Liji smiled and said, "I have a good show to watch today!" ”

Six rows of ministers, the leader is the six ministers. Originally, there should be an equal separation of civil and military forces, but now the civilian officials are in the front and the military attaches are in the back. It can be seen that the Ming Dynasty emphasized literature and light martial arts.

Na Haonan dismounted and stood outside the main hall, looking at the more than 100 officials who came over in a hurry. Na Haonan just pouted.

Na Haonan, the official inside, didn't know any of them, but he knew that the six in front were the heads. Shousuke should be the first to stand in the left row, and when he looked over, he saw Huang Liji smiling and nodding at him.

Di Haonan also nodded at Huang Liji and said carefully: It seems that the silver is not in vain. However, when he looked to the right, he saw several old men glaring at Di Haonan viciously.

It should be Gu Bingqian!

Di Haonan thought to himself, this old guy should find out a little bit of news from Wei Zhongxian, knowing that he was going to kill him. Naturally, it won't look good.

Then, the Manchu Dynasty civil and military walked up the steps one by one and looked at Di Haonan next to him.

"Damn!" Deng Haonan looked left and right, not knowing where to stand.

Cut?

Never mind!

Na Haonan thought about it, so he followed at the back of the queue.

But when he arrived at the gate of the main hall, he was stopped by two eunuchs.

"What?"

"Don't blame me, adults!" One of the little eunuchs said: "There are rules in the imperial court, and officials from other places who come to Beijing to report on their work need to be passed on before they can be met!" ”

Fork! Say it earlier!

Di Haonan rolled his eyes. I had to stand outside the main hall.

"How do you know I'm a foreign official?"

"Lord Qiyu. There is an order from above, saying that there will be foreign officials in Beijing today to report on their work, and you are angry again! ”

Na Haonan nodded and didn't ask any more.

Soon, at seven o'clock, a eunuch shouted at the top of his voice that the emperor was in the early dynasty. Zhu Youxiao, supported by Wei Zhongxian, walked out. The ministers immediately knelt down. When Zhu Youxiao sat on the dragon chair, the ministers shouted three more long live. Zhu Youxiao waved his hand. The retainers stood.

Wei Zhongxian shouted: "There is a book to play, but there is no book to retreat!" ”

Obviously, there is nothing to play, and the world is peaceful.

At this time, Li Guo, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, came out of class and said: "Your Majesty, Deng Haonan, Marquis of Jinghai, entered Beijing yesterday. Today should be seen in the court! ”

Zhu Youxiao nodded, looked around the hall, found no one alive, and asked, "Where is Deng Haonan?" ”

Li Guo said: "That Hao Nan is waiting outside the hall!" ”

Zhu Youxiao's face was overjoyed, and he couldn't help coughing a few times. said: "Deng Aiqing is the pillar of the country, announce it quickly!" ”

Wei Zhongxian glanced at Zhu Youxiao, and had some doubts in his heart, but he didn't have time to think about it now, so he shouted: "Xuanjing Haihou Nahao Nan is here!" ”

"Xuanjing Haihou Na Haonan is here!"

"Xuanjing Haihou Na Haonan is here!"

The eunuch shouted at the top of his voice, and passed down one after another, all the way to and far away. Look at that posture is a trick to spread to the outside of the palace gate.

The voice was torturous, and Deng Haonan rolled his eyes. said: "Just shout and get it." I'm right in front of me, and it's not that I can't hear it! ”

"Don't blame me, my lord, the slaves are just routine!"

"Yes! Know! Deng Haonan nodded hurriedly and asked, "I can go in!" ”

"Your Excellency, please!"

"What shall I say?" Deng Haonan suddenly turned his head and asked the little eunuch with a smile: "My lord, but it's okay to say!" ”

"Good!" Deng Haonan smiled and said, "Then I'll say everything!" ”

Di Haonan crossed the high threshold, lowered his head, and looked left and right. On both sides were standing officials, all of them tilting their heads to look at Deng Haonan, some hostile, some contemptuous, some treating him as air, only a few people smiled at him.

"Don't go any further! Just salute there! ”

Someone next to him reminded that Na Haonan knelt down and bowed, shouting: "Minister Na Haonan bows to my emperor, long live!" Banzai! Hooray! Wei Gong Chitose, Chitose, Chitose! ”

After Di Haonan finished speaking, there was silence in the hall. You can hear the sound of hair falling to the ground. The civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty all had stunned expressions, they were really defeated by Na Haonan this time.

And Deng Haonan never looked up, counting down to 2 seizures in his heart!

Weng's voice. The hall suddenly looked like a vegetable market. The ministers exchanged their heads one after another.

Huang Liji shook his gray eyebrows, he had already expected that Na Haonan would stage a big show, but he didn't expect it to be like this, which really surprised him. Shaking his head and smiling bitterly: "What a stunned young man!" ”

Li Guoze's mouth was open, looking at Na Haonan who was kneeling on the ground, his eyes were slowly cutting the four operas, and he said with admiration: "My lord is really like a god!" ”

On the right, Gu Bingqian, who was holding his head, was even more confused, and he had the heart to speak immediately, but people shouted Wei Zhongxian Chitose, if he spoke in a relative way. made it clear that he couldn't get along with Wei Zhongxian.

Urging Chengxiu and other eunuch members were all bitter gourd faces, secretly saying that Deng Haonan was too reckless, too direct, too not to give the emperor face, too one was too powerful, too kind.

Looking at Wei Zhongxian, he was surprised at first, then slightly angry, and soon calmed down, obviously too happy in his heart. No one has ever dared to call him like this directly in the main hall, everyone is shouting nine thousand years old, thousand years old, etc. in private. Now that Haonan screamed like this, he undoubtedly pierced this layer of window paper.

In the end, the eyes of the ministers were all fixed on Emperor Zhu Youxiao. At first, Zhu Youxiao was still happy, and was about to shout "Aiqing is exempt", but when he heard the latter words, his face turned blue with real anger, and then pale.

looked at Wei Zhongxian, and saw Wei Zhongxian's calm face, which was obviously a tacit acquiescence. Zhu Youxiao pointed at Na Haonan. His fingers trembled, and he said, "Deng Haonan!" ”

"The minister is here!" Deng Haonan hurriedly replied.

Zhu Youxiao saw that Na Haonan's voice was loud and loud, and he shouted confidently, and he trembled more and more angrily.

"You, you, you"

With a sigh, Zhu Youxiao was unconscious on the dragon chair, and Wei Zhongxian hurriedly said: "Help the emperor go back and pass on the imperial doctor!" ”

The emperor was obviously fainted by Deng Haonan, and the ministers suddenly became chaotic.

"Deng Haonan!"

Hearing that the voice was Wei Zhongxian's, Deng Haozhu hurriedly said: "The factory minister is here, please show it at the age of nine thousand!" ”

Oh, my God! As soon as Deng Haonan's words came out, the ministers were suddenly excited, and some decent officials pointed at Deng Haonan and scolded. It's just that Deng Haonan didn't bother to pay attention to them.

"Enough!" Wei Zhongxian snorted lightly and said, "Jinghai Hou, you are guilty!" ”

"I don't know! Please show it to the 9,000-year-old! ”

Wei Zhongxian came to Deng Haonan and said, "You were shocked, what kind of crime should you be guilty of!" ”

Some Qingliu immediately shouted to punish Di Haonan.

Di Haonan secretly said in his heart: A group of fools, don't you know that Lao Tzu is a bitter trick? Forget it, don't bother to argue with a bunch of pigs.

"The minister didn't know that he was shocked by the holy drive, if he had known, he wouldn't have gone to court! Presumably it was caused by the emperor's joy and happiness when he saw his ministers! ”

The ministers were speechless for a moment, they didn't expect Deng Xunan to be so quibble.

"Don't you know that the emperor is not in good health?"

"Wechen is guilty!"

Wei Zhongxian nodded with great satisfaction, and then a little eunuch came over and said, "Qiyu is nine thousand years old." The emperor had already woken up, saying that he was just happy to see a pillar of the country like Jinghai Hou! The emperor has a decree, Jinghai Hou has contributed to the community, Wen Jinghai Hou entered Beijing and did not show his female dependents, so he specially rewarded one national color and ten palace maids to show the dragon's favor! ”

There was a buzz, and there was another uproar in the hall. A group of ministers already understood that Wei Zhongxian's hookup with Deng Haonan was obviously a double reed play, but they dared to be angry but didn't dare to speak, so the Qingliu people threw up their sleeves and left angrily.

Li Guo whispered in Huang Liji's ear: "How can this be? ”

Huang Liji glanced at Deng Haonan, and then at Wei Zhongxian's smug look, so he snorted angrily and turned to leave.

"Still not thanksgiving?"

Several eunuch members on the side laughed and said, Deng Haonan hurriedly said: "Thank you, Lord Longen!" ”

"There are no outsiders here, it should be Xie Jiu,000-year-old Longen!"

Di Haonan then said: "Xie Jiu,000-year-old Longen! ”

"Get up". Wei Zhongxian said lightly, but the people who often followed him knew that when this tone was in this tone, Wei Zhongxian was the happiest.

Na Haonan got up, Wei Zhongxian looked at Deng Haonan, although he had seen Li Xiaoqi, but he didn't pay attention to Li Xiaoqi at that time, so he had a vague impression, and now Deng Haonan has gone through more than a year of wind and rain, and the previous childish atmosphere is gone. Therefore, Wei Zhongxian couldn't recognize it at all.

"How long is Master Hou going to stay in Zhuo this time?"

Na Haonan replied: "Qiyu is nine thousand years old, I will go to the military department to sign a charge later, and then leave in the afternoon!" ”

Wei Zhongxian asked, "Why don't you play for a few more days before leaving!" ”

Di Haonan smiled brightly and said, "I am not familiar with the life in the capital, so it is more practical to go back to Liaodong!" Besides, today's action has already offended the emperor, why will you stay if you don't run? ”

The eunuchs laughed, Wei Zhongxian's face was calm, but he was very happy in his heart. Seeing that Deng Haonan was only sixteen or seventeen years old. There could be no city government at all, so he no longer doubted Na Haonan.

For Wei Zhongxian, once he does not doubt the person. Then I will treat it as my own person.

"Don't worry! The emperor will never blame you! Wei Zhongxian said: "Tonight, our family will pick up the wind and wash the dust for Hou Ye, Hou Ye, but please rest assured!" Play a few more days! ”

Di Haonan said in his heart: Of course Lao Tzu wants to stay for a few more days, otherwise he wouldn't have to make such a big effort to curry favor with you.

I wanted to agree directly, but Deng Haonan kept an eye on it, he couldn't take the initiative himself, what if Wei Zhongxian still tried himself, wouldn't it be in vain? So he said, "How can this be done!" The kindness of my father-in-law has been appreciated! The capital is not a place for me to stay! ”

Seeing that Deng Haonan quietly stayed in the capital, Wei Zhongxian was even more relieved.

"What? Hou Ye doesn't give face to our family." ”

Urging Chengxiu said with a smile: "Master Hou is afraid that the emperor will blame him!" Don't worry, there are nine thousand years old, and the emperor won't blame you! ”

Wei Zhongxian said directly: "It's decided!" Tonight, I will pick up the wind and wash the dust for Hou Ye, and urge you to arrange the show! ”

Xuan Cheng shrugged and said, "Wow! small

"Our family still has important matters, so we won't compensate the Hou Ye!"

Na Haonan hurriedly said: "Congratulations to nine thousand years old!" ”

Wei Zhongxian waved his hand, turned to leave, and a large group of eunuchs gathered together.

"Master Hou is really young and promising!"

"Lord Shangshu has won the award!" Deng Haonan hurriedly humbled and was wary of this girl in his heart. He knows that when dealing with Wei Zhongxian, he can play cards without common sense, but he is a normal person, and if he wants to hide it, he needs not to reveal any horses.

"Why did Lord Hou say that in the main hall? I don't know if it will annoy the emperor, the emperor will kill you! ”

Sure enough, this girl asked the key to the question.

Na Haonan smiled secretly in his heart. Zhu Youxiao naturally won't kill Lao Tzu. Because Lao Tzu is his savior. Who saved Lao Tzu after killing him?

Di Haonan replied cautiously: "To tell the truth, I'm still hairy in my heart now!" It was the first time I saw such a big occasion, and I was a little nervous. Outside the hall, I was thinking about how to lead the Seven Emperors of Sichuan and the Ten Thousand Years Old, but I thought about it and said that I was nervous! "Oldβ€»

Di Haonan's acting skills are first-class, and there is no lie in his eyes, so that the old guy in the officialdom of Xu Chengxiu can't see the flaws.

"Master Hou is still too young! It would be nice to have a lot of experience in the future! ”

"Thank you for the reminder!"

Urging Chengxiu nodded, thinking in his heart that it seemed that the other party did not have any city government, what he said was reasonable and there was no flaw. Just ask a sixteen or seventeen-year-old person to appear in the imperial palace for the first time, it is strange not to be nervous.

Letting go of the doubts in his heart, he urged Chengxiu to smile and said: "Master Hou has a good rest now, tonight is a sleepless night of ecstasy!" ”

Seeing that Qi Chengxiu's eyes were full of lust, Na Haonan sighed in his heart, it seemed that he couldn't hide. So he immediately showed an excited look and said, "I don't know where it is?" ”

"Master Hou, don't worry, later, the official will call you!"

"Then Ben Hou is waiting for news at home!"

"Good!"

After sending the urging show, Deng Haonan whistled, and the wind immediately wore out.

Riding out of the Forbidden City arrogantly again, Na Haonan's mood was a little better. Because he knew that after the actions just now, Wei Zhongxian would no longer see himself as the biggest threat.

After leaving the palace, Deng Haonan originally wanted to go to the military department to sign the detention, but when he thought of urging Chengxiu, Deng Haonan decided that it would be better to talk to him less, and he would show his feet if he was not sure, so he returned to the mansion with the guards.

After returning to the mansion, Di Haonan lay on the bed, thinking about what happened just now, and checking whether there were any loopholes so that he could save in time.

β€»β€»

Na Haonan's mischievous commotion caused the ministers to go home and gather together to study in groups of three.

Of course, a few families are happy and a few are sad.

Naturally, Wei Zhongxian's eunuch clique and the court officials close to the eunuch party were happy, because they knew that Di Haonan's strength was strong in the feudal territory. With Deng Haonan as foreign aid, the eunuch party no longer has to be afraid of Jiannu and sea chaos, so the arrogant days in the future will be better.

However, there are also worries in the eunuch group, that is, Gu Bingqian's party. Long. Gu Bingqian is all attached to Wei Zhongxian and is against Deng Haonan. Now that it is obvious that Wei Zhongxian and Na Haonan have come together, then Deng Haonan naturally wants to take revenge on Gu Bingqian. Therefore, Gu Bingqian's party is now unable to ask for help from their opponent Huang Liji or Wei Zhongxian. Once Deng Haonan attacks Gu Bingqian, then I believe that Huang Liji's party will definitely fall into the ground, and Wei Zhongxian will also stand by and watch.

Huang Liji's mansion, Li Guoxia came over together. "Huang Lao, you have something to say!"

"What is there to say!" Huang Liji drank tea, looking leisurely.

Li Guodao: "Deng Haonan has arrived at Wei Zhongxian, isn't Wei Zhongxian even more arrogant?" So what should we do in the future! ”

"What should I do?" Huang Liji smiled: "Cold salad!" ”

Li Guo said unhappily: "It seems that you are not worried at all!" ”

"Why should I worry?"

"He"

Li Guo heard that there was another meaning in Huang Liji's words, and suddenly said, "You mean him"

"Just know!" Huang Liji said lightly: "It's going to rain, and the mother wants to get married, and we have no choice!" ”

Li Guo nodded, he knew that Wei Zhongxian's brocade guards were pervasive, and the two of them used their eyes to communicate with each other about many things.

God has been friends for a long time

β€»β€»

After urging Chengxiu to send Deng Haonan away, he did not go home or return to the military department, but returned to Wei Zhongxian's side from the beginning.

"How's it going?"

Wei Zhongxian was lying on the Taishi's chair, smoking a cigarette, and the two little eunuchs beat his legs, leisurely.

Urging Chengxiu said: "Qiyu's nine-thousand-year-old junior official has nothing abnormal, and Di Haonan doesn't look like he is lying. made such a play, one is that he wants to show goodwill with nine thousand years old, and the other is that he has never seen the world, so he nervously accidentally said those words. ”

Wei Zhongxian nodded and said, "What you say in a nervous way is ninety percent credible!" A sixteen or seventeen-year-old Mao boy, our family doesn't believe that he has a city government than Huang Liji! ”

"Nine thousand years old said yes!" Urging Chengxiu said with a smile: "It seems that the nine thousand years old are very happy, and they actually rewarded Deng Haonan and the palace maid!" ”

"You're greedy!"

"Don't dare!" Urging Chengxiu hurriedly denied Xiao, but his eyes betrayed him.

Wei Zhongxian said lightly: "Our family received a tip, as soon as this Di Haonan entered his mansion yesterday, he couldn't help but take a mandarin duck bath, it can be seen that he can't stand the womanhood, so don't worry!" ”

"No wonder 9,000 years old rewarded him with national colors!" Qi Chengxiu suddenly understood that Wei Zhongxian's every step was purposeful.

"Young people, they can't stand the temptation, it's just what we can use!"

"Nine thousand years old!"

"It's just a hairy boy, it's not a good idea!" Wei Zhongxian said: "But this kid can be a marquis at a young age, in addition to luck, he still has the ability!" We can't afford to take this lightly and send people to closely monitor the army outside the city! ”

"Whoa!" Urging the show to take orders. Then he asked, "Then wash the dust for Na Haonan tonight."

"You can do it yourself!" Wei Zhongxian said: "Our family has already taught you, so we won't go!" ”

Urging Chengxiu thought about it, suddenly understood, and said excitedly: "Nine thousand years old Shengming!" ”

Wei Zhongxian waved his hand and urged Chengxiu to retire.

β€»β€»

In the dormitory, after Queen Zhang learned about Deng Haonan's incident, she suddenly jumped like thunder and counted Deng Haonan dozens of times.

Xiao Liuzi stood obediently aside, listening to Queen Zhang's roar.

Originally, Wei Zhongxian saw that Xiao Liuzi was good, so he entrusted him with an important task and sent Xiao Liuzi to Empress Zhang's side to monitor. Unexpectedly, this little sixth son still longs for the royal family in his heart, and Queen Zhang treats him well. Hence the double agent. After seeing Deng Haonan last time, Xiao Liuzi knew that Deng Haonan was disgusted with Wei Zhongxian, so he loved the house and Wu, and Xiao Liuzi completely fell to the royal family.

Now he is wandering between Wei Zhongxian and the emperor, secretly helping the emperor.

"His heart can be punished!"

Hearing this, Xiao Liuzi was immediately unhappy, so he said: "Queen Qiyu, maybe the adult has other plans!" ”

"What are you going to do?"

"The slave doesn't know!"

Empress Zhang glared at Xiao Liuzi and asked, "What do you have to do with that Haonan, and you actually help him talk?" ”

Xiao Liuzi replied: "Although the adult's behavior is incomprehensible, the slave can guarantee that he is more righteous in his body!" ”

Empress Zhang was angry, if it weren't for the fact that this little sixth son was an honest child, she would definitely beat him a few boards.

"And what do you mean by him?"

Xiao Liuzi shook his head, and suddenly said: "The slave maid thought that Lord Deng might want to paralyze the eunuchs, and suddenly rescued the emperor unconsciously!" ”

Empress Zhang looked at Xiao Liuzi, and suddenly she also believed it, but she couldn't fully believe it.

"Deng Haonan joined the eunuch party, so the eunuchs are going to celebrate today! Does Wei Zhongxian have any indications? ”

Xiao Liuzi weakly did not speak.

"Say it!" Empress Zhang sighed and said, "The mourning family is used to it!" Won't be angry! ”

Xiao Liuzi hesitated for a moment, and finally said: "Wei Zhongxian rewarded the lord of the palace with one national color and ten palace maids!" ”

At the end, "Liuzi almost couldn't hear himself.

Helplessly, Empress Zhang's ears were so good, she understood it, and immediately said angrily: "This damn thief!" It's so arrogant! It's just lawless! ”

In the Ming Dynasty, whoever wanted to be the queen had to pass the 468 level step by step like today's English major examination, and he had to pass the "8th level" until he was qualified to be the mother of the world. According to the "Biography of the First Concubine in the History of the Ming Dynasty", Zhu Yuanzhang learned from the teachings of the harem chaos of the previous dynasties, and revised the "Female" in the first year of Hongwu as the "family law" to manage the concubine In the selection of the concubine, in order to prevent the collusion between the powerful ministers of the court and the harem, it is stipulated that "all the sons of heaven, the prince, the concubine, and the palace concubine, carefully choose the daughter of the good family for it, and the one who enters will be accepted, so the concubine and the queen will be more popular." And he focused on choosing women from poor families, trying to assist the emperor in frugality and diligence. Of course, this is just a good wish. However, the system of selecting concubines in the Ming Dynasty was very standardized, and the process was roughly divided into "eight levels" to be screened and eliminated step by step.

The first level is the "sea selection", when the emperor is of great marriage age, he sends eunuchs to all parts of the country to select beautiful girls between the ages of thirteen and sixteen, and selects 5,000 from the sea. These 5,000 people are equivalent to getting a beauty pageant "admission ticket", and the royal family pays a number of silver coins as a dowry and travel expenses, so that the parents of the selected girls will send their daughters to the capital to be selected within the specified time limit.

The second level is called the primary election. In this primary election, a large field was chosen, and the eunuchs lined up the girls in a row of 100 people, sorted them by age, and after inspecting them one by one, they eliminated those who were either slightly taller, or slightly shorter, or slightly fatter, or slightly thinner. This primary election will eliminate 1,000 people.

The third level is called double selection. Generally on the second day of the primary election, these girls who passed the primary election continued to line up, and the eunuchs used very picky standards to carefully inspect each person's facial features, hair, skin, and of course, including the "three measurements". In order to inspect the timbre and demeanor, eliminate those with rough voices, slurred speech, and unelegant manners. And so another two thousand were sifted out.

The fourth level is Select. The eunuchs used rulers to carefully measure the hands and feet of the girls, and then let them walk up dozens of "steps" to see the gait and charm. So those who had bigger feet, thicker wrists, and bad manners were eliminated again. In the end, a thousand beauties were left to be summoned into the palace to continue to participate in the "examination", and the mission of the eunuchs came to an end.

The fifth level is the Lingering Palace. Arrange the old palace ladies in the palace separately, and lead the beauties to the secret room one by one, probe their breasts, smell their armpits, and touch their textures, and the strict process of their physical examination is no less than that of selecting "astronauts" to pass the physical examination, and it is determined that 300 of them will become the palace maids selected to stay in the palace.

The sixth level is the Jin Concubine. These three hundred beauties who stayed in the palace. The Emperor's commissioner observed them in detail for a month, judging whether they were gentle, wise, and virtuous according to their temperament and words. According to this, another 250 people were screened out, and the remaining 50 people were automatically promoted to concubines.

The seventh level is the "selection of three", the so-called "selection of three" is by the empress dowager or concubine from the fifty people to choose three for the emperor's appointment. This is a bit similar to the "first three places" of the Zhang Bang after the imperial examination court examination, taking the Ming Xi Sect election as an example, when the concubine Liu personally summoned fifty people, "with the language, try to count the poetry and painting arts with books" and then selected three people, namely the queen Zhang Yan, the concubine Wang, and the Duan family.

The eighth level is the King James Decree. Concubine Liu first conveyed the beauty of Zhang Yan and the other three to the emperor, and Xizong personally summoned the three of them for an interview. Xizong saw the three beautiful beauties, and he was really in a dilemma, and he was undecided, so he asked Zhao Xuanzhi to decide. Zhao Jianyì designated Zhang Yan, so he appointed Zhang Yan as the queen of the Middle Palace, Wang as a good concubine, and Duan as a pure concubine. It was the year, and Zhang Yan was fifteen years old.

Generally, the two beauties who accompany the selection after the "selection of three" will be named concubines, but some are given gold and silver coins to return home. For example, when Mingguangzong was the crown prince, the prince was chosen, and Aunt Liu and the Guo sisters entered the final round of competition. The eldest of the Guo family was elected as the crown princess, and his sister and Aunt Liu were unsuccessful, and returned home after being given gold coins. According to reports, this Aunt Liu felt that she was worth a hundred times, and after returning to her hometown, she was unwilling to marry an ordinary man, and she became an old virgin for a lifetime.

And the national color is the name of the remaining fifty beauties in the seventh level selection. Including the queen Zhang Yan, the concubine Wang, and the Duan family, all belong to the national color. Forty-seven beauties who were not selected for the national color were given gold coins to go home, and they were also allowed to stay in the palace, and Empress Zhang was a group of national beauties, and those who remained were counted as the emperor's women, and when the queen or concubine committed an accident or was demoted, or died, these national colors would have the opportunity to be favored by the emperor, and the concubine or even the queen.

At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, most women would choose to wait until the pheasant would become a phoenix. However, with the corruption of the royal family of the Ming Dynasty, the women in the palace were abused to death and piled up, and the folk women were no longer willing to leave their daughters.

Empress Zhang was selected for her national color, and now Wei Zhongxian is rewarding Deng Haonan with a national color, which is undoubtedly slapping Empress Zhang in the face and further damaging the image of imperial power.

Empress Zhang trembled angrily, and Xiao Liuzi hurriedly stepped forward to persuade.

After a long while, Empress Zhang suddenly said: "Who is the national color chosen?" Xiao Liuzi thought for a while and said, "It's Su Cui'e, the seventeenth concubine of Chuxiu Palace!" ”

Empress Zhang suddenly smiled and said, "This time the mourning family has a way, see if you Deng Haonan is still dead!" ”

Xiao Liuzi said worriedly: "Queen, please don't embarrass Lord Di!" ”

Empress Zhang sneered: "Isn't it good to be a hero? As long as he is obedient and obedient, the mourning family will naturally not embarrass him! ”

β€»β€»

At night, Urging Chengxiu personally went to the Jinghai Marquis Mansion to invite Di Haonan to a banquet, and the location was in the Mansion of Urging Chengxiu. Not far from the Jinghai Hou Mansion, just turn a corner, no wonder Urge Chengxiu to come over in person.

Urging Chengxiu is just a secretary of the military department, and he has no title. The mansion is so close to Deng Haonan's mansion, which can only show that his power as a member of the eunuch party is huge.

When I came to the mansion of the Urging Chengxiu Mansion, the lights in front of the mansion were colorful, and the traffic was so busy.

"Master Hou, please!"

"You're welcome, please!"

Na Haonan and Xu Chengxiu exchanged politeness

The Mansion is really magnificent, larger and more luxurious than Di Haonan's Hou Mansion. Banquet from inside the hall. All the way to the courtyard corridor, there are no less than a few hundred seats.

These are eunuch members!

Na Haonan walked in with Urging Chengxiu and immediately became the object of attention. Officials of all sizes stepped forward one after another, asking this and that, and the intimacy was like a good friend for decades.

Na Haonan tried his best to remember his appearance and name, so that he could sit down in the right place in the future, or guard against them. After all, the eunuch party is about to step down, and there are still many remnants. Make an impression and be prepared.

The people sitting outside are all small minions, and the people in the main hall are the core characters. And the largest banquet is the heart of the core. After urging the show to introduce them one by one, Na Haonan greeted them one by one. The key leader, Deng Haonan will say a few words to the other party in order to strengthen the impression.

Among them, there are more than 30 people in the internal prison, including Wang Tiqian, Li Chaoqin, and Wang Chaofu. In the outer court, Tian Ji, Wu Chunfu, Li Linglong, Ni Wenhuan and other masterminds discussed the "Five Biao" known as the "Five Tigers" Tian Ergeng, Xu Xianchun, Sun Yunhe, Yang Huan, Cui Yingyuan and other main killings

There is also Zhou Yingqiu, the head of the ten dogs, who is good at cooking, and Wei Zhongxian's nephew, Su Ningbo Wei Liangqing, likes to eat his roasted pig's trotters the most. His rise to the left capital of the imperial history depends on this, known as the "hoof of the general constitution" ten children and forty grandchildren are even more complicated, in the capital only Li Fan, Li Lusheng and other imperial history, to the middle of things.

Surprisingly, Huang Liji and others also arrived. Deng Haonan sighed secretly in his heart, don't look at their confrontation in the court, but in private, it does not affect the exchange of feelings. Maybe this is their political and black science, in short, they all hide knives in their smiles.

The most interesting thing is that Gu Bingqian and the others actually whispered to Na Haonan, looking at the posture of urging Chengxiu, it seems that there is still a meaning for Deng Haonan to mediate with them.

In the center of the hall was a large open space, covered with a thick carpet, and I don't know what it was for.

Urging Chengxiu to take Deng Haonan to sit in the chairmanship of the Central Committee, Deng Haonan asked in a low voice: "Why don't you see nine thousand years old?" ”

Ji Chengxiu smiled: "Nine thousand years old never eats and drinks alone with anyone, and he doesn't like this kind of occasion!" Besides, today is to pick up the wind and wash the dust for you, if the nine thousand years old come, wouldn't it be noisy? ”

Na Haonan was dumbfounded.

Urging Chengxiu clapped his hands, and the officials stopped making noise one after another. After everyone sat down, urged Chengxiu to get up.

"Ministers!"

With a hula, all the officials saw that Chengxiu was urging him to get up, and immediately got up to accompany him. Deng Haonan had no choice but to stand up.

Urging Chengxiu nodded very stylishly, waved his guide, and said, "You are not more restrained, please take a seat." ”

And they sat down at their seats.

Damn! Good panache! No wonder it is the largest non-eunuch leader in the eunuch party!

While talking, there were maids in the surrounding corridors to pour wine for everyone.

Urging Chengxiu raised his glass and said: "Today, we are waiting for a party, first of all, I wish the 9,000-year-old his old man good luck and a long life." ”

Everyone cheered and drank together, and the atmosphere was extremely warm.

Na Haonan sneered in his heart. Seeing that the person who is about to hang up, it would be good to be able to live a long life!

Then Cheng Xiu stood up again, and everyone stood up one after another, laughing and saying, "People outside call us eunuchs." Then let's simply call it a eunuch! This gathering is a dust-washing banquet held for the Marquis of Jinghai, and now that we have the Marquis of Jinghai, Jiannu and Haikou will threaten us in the future. Let's all toast to Jinghai Hou. ”

Na Haonan hurriedly humbled himself, and after the congratulatory wine order was spoken, everyone cheered, they were all overjoyed, very happy, and everyone drank another cup.

Urging Chengxiu to invite everyone to sit down, and the maid serves the food. Then urged Chengxiu to hit his palms together, making a crisp sound.

I don't know where the musician came from, but I immediately started playing energetically.

A group of nearly 100 beautiful singers and dancers, wearing dovetail-shaped buns and various long gowns of translucent light materials, danced into the hall like a flying fly, singing and dancing. Hidden Milk Wave Five. legs, make all kinds of graceful gestures, teach people to take it for God.

Everyone high-fived and cheered.

Na Haonan looked at the singing and dancing Ji Jiao's continuous voice, her dancing posture was light and soft, and her waist was fluttering, and she couldn't help but sigh secretly.

This is the luxurious life of the ancient high society!

Seeing Deng Haonan's eyes shining, he immediately smiled secretly, and then clapped his hands again, and a group of flowery maids came up and sat down next to the officials in each hall in turn. However, the officials outside did not have this kind of treatment, and could only look at it and drool.

"Master Hou!" With a coquettish drink, a beautiful maid sat down next to Deng Haonan and added wine and food.

"This is"

Di Haonan asked knowingly, urging Chengxiu to think that Deng Haonan had never seen this kind of battle, so he smiled and said: "Master Hou just needs to enjoy it!" This maid's name is Caiting, but she is rare and lovely! ”

With the cheap smile of the urging show, the daughter named Caiting leaned into Deng Haonan's ear and said coquettishly: "Ting'er's singing and dancing are much better than theirs, and if you have the opportunity, you will definitely let Hou Ye feast his eyes and ears." ”

Di Haonan undoubtedly looked very beautiful and her figure was also very charming, but thinking that she didn't know how many times she had urged the pervert, she suddenly lost interest.

But he still had to pretend, so he replied, "You are not allowed to have any clothes on you." ”

"Nasty!" After Cai Ting glanced at Na Haonan, she gave him a sweet smile.

Urging Chengxiu laughed, patted Deng Haonan's shoulder, and signaled Deng Haonan to be casual. But Deng Haonan was covered with goosebumps by this woman's scream.

The wine has passed three rounds, and the dishes have passed five flavors.

That Haonan knew that this Cai Ting was with Xuan Chengxiu, and it was estimated that she was sent by Xuan Chengxiu to spy on her. Anyway, the other party is also a beauty, and if she doesn't eat tofu in vain, she won't be able to pass that level.

was aroused by Caiting's desire, and waves of officials on the left came over to toast, Di Haonan had to drink, and soon he was already drunk.

It wasn't until midnight that the Kabuki danced out and retreated, leaving the hall full of aroma, and with the smell of alcohol and foul language, the whole hall basically became a den of obscenity.

Di Haonan was so drunk that he couldn't stand it, so he resigned from the urging show. Urging Chengxiu was teasing the maid and persuading Di Haonan to stay, but seeing that Deng Haonan insisted on leaving, he didn't stay.

Ding Daniu and Feng Shaoyan hurriedly stepped forward to help Deng Haonan, left the mansion, and returned to the Jinghai Hou Mansion.

When he returned to the mansion, his own maid sent him a sobering soup, and after Na Haonan drank it, he was still drowsy. Under the service of more than a dozen maids, he was sent back to the bedroom after bathing.

However, not long after Di Haonan lay down, in a daze, he seemed to dream that the delicate lady Wanshu and him went to Wushan Yunyu together. D
