The clouds in the sky were getting lower and lower, the wind was strong, the curtains in the hall were all blown up, and the doors were blown back and forth, creaking from time to time.

"Quick, close the door! The curtains are all rolled up! Wang Chengen kept shouting in the hall, and countless eunuchs and palace maids ran back and forth in the hall.

Walking out of the main hall slowly, the Emperor of the Apocalypse stood on the steps of the main hall, looking at the black clouds in the sky, the Emperor of the Apocalypse did not have any expression on his face. The wind continued to blow on the body of the Emperor of the Apocalypse, and the wide dragon robe continued to flutter with the wind, and the hunting sound. As if he couldn't feel the cold, the Emperor of the Apocalypse looked at the dim sky and was silent for a long time.

"Your Majesty, go in! It's going to rain, take care of your dragon's body! When Wang Chengen saw this scene, he immediately felt that his soul was about to fly out. Hurriedly ran to the side of the Emperor of the Apocalypse, knelt on the ground, and said loudly.

Ignoring Wang Chengen, the Emperor of the Apocalypse just stood there, looking at the black clouds in the sky, not knowing what the Emperor of the Apocalypse was thinking.

There was nothing special, the rain was accompanied by a strong wind, and the huge raindrops hit the eaves and crackled. After a short time, there was already standing water in the square, and with the hit of raindrops, it was already white.

The water droplets kept falling, and with the wind blowing, some had already fallen on the body of the Emperor of the Apocalypse, and the dragon robe on his lower body had begun to get wet. The Emperor of the Apocalypse still looked at the heavy rain in front of him motionlessly, his face still gloomy.

Ignoring the Emperor of the Apocalypse, Wang Chengen hurriedly stood up from the ground and stood in front of the Emperor of the Apocalypse. Let the drops of water fall on your body,

He shook his head with a wry smile. The Emperor of the Apocalypse turned around and walked into the main hall, and commanded softly, "Close the door!"

"Yes, it's the emperor!" Wang Chengen's face suddenly showed joy, and he followed the Emperor of the Apocalypse into the main hall and beckoned the little eunuch standing on the side to close the door.

Under the impetus of several little eunuchs, the huge palace gate slowly closed, and after a loud bang, the gate closed. Suddenly, the inside and outside of the hall became two worlds. The lights in the palace were also lit, otherwise the dark clouds would have covered the sky and there would be no more to see.

did not stay in the main hall, the Emperor of the Apocalypse came to the warm pavilion at the back, where only Wang Chengen was waiting alone. Slowly sitting on the bed, the Emperor of the Apocalypse said to Wang Chengen expressionlessly: "Sit down!" I'm talking to you! ”

Wang Chengen was slightly stunned, took a pier and sat down. He took the leg of the Emperor of the Apocalypse in his arms and gently pinched it.

"Wang Chengen, how many years have you been in the palace?" It seemed that it was unintentional, the Emperor of the Apocalypse looked at Wang Chengen and asked softly.

"Back to the emperor, the slave maid entered the palace at the age of sixteen. It's been eleven years since this year. Wang Chengen looked at the Emperor of the Apocalypse and said with emotion.

Listening to Wang Chengen's words, the Emperor of the Apocalypse was slightly stunned, perhaps because of historical reasons, or because Wang Chengen always looked old. The Emperor of the Apocalypse ignored Wang Chengen's age. It turned out that Wang Cheng was only twenty-seven years old this year, and he was in the prime of life. Compared with Chen Hong, it is much smaller. is even smaller than Wang An.

"Didn't you enter the palace with the Wei Dynasty? I heard that you have done things together, why does he seem to be so much older than you?" The Emperor of the Apocalypse looked at Wang Chengen and asked suspiciously.

Smiling lightly, Wang Chengen said in a brisk tone: "That's because the slave maid entered the palace early, and the Wei Dynasty Wei Gonggong was a little later, and he was twenty-one years old when he entered the palace." However, Grandpa Wei is not very old, but he is thirty-two years old! ”

The Emperor of the Apocalypse could only smile bitterly and shake his head, it seemed that he really had no idea about the age of the eunuchs, so he didn't dwell on this question, but asked in a deep voice: "Wang Chengen, why did you enter the palace back then?"

"Back to the emperor, the slave's hometown was a disaster, and the family had no choice but to sell me to human traffickers, and after a few turnovers, they gave me to Cao's father-in-law, and Cao's father-in-law brought the slave and maid into the palace." Wang Chengen recounted his past softly, without a trace of fluctuation in his tone, and obviously let go.

"Have you ever hated your family? They sold you?" When the Emperor of the Apocalypse heard about Gonggong Cao, his face changed slightly, but he didn't say anything. It's just a momentary thing, except for the Emperor of the Apocalypse, Wang Chengen probably didn't notice it.

Shaking his head with a smile, Wang Chengen said with emotion: "At that time, the whole family will not be able to live, if you don't sell one person, I'm afraid the whole family will starve to death." A few children in the family caught Qiu, and in the end, I couldn't do anything about it. ”

"Do you have any news from your family?" The Emperor of the Apocalypse changed his leg and asked Wang Chengen.

"The slave and maid have been asked to look for it, but there is no news, I'm afraid it's no longer there!" Speaking of this, Wang Chengen's tone was a little low, obviously his family was very important in his heart.

Picking up his leg, the Emperor of the Apocalypse said softly, "You go out!" I lay down alone for a while. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty." Wang Chengen bowed respectfully, bowed and retreated.

Gently closed his eyes, but the Emperor of the Apocalypse did not feel sleepy at all, and his heart was mixed with mixed tastes. If this really continues, I am afraid that in the future, it will be another stone man with one eye, provoking the Yellow River to rebel against the world.

It seems that his ideas should be implemented as soon as possible, but he can't attack as much as he can, and after sorting out these ideas, the Emperor of the Apocalypse remembered another thing. As early as when the Emperor of the Apocalypse ascended the throne, there was a group of people who were forgotten by the Emperor of the Apocalypse, or selectively forgotten. There is one person in this, that is, the father-in-law Cao mentioned by Wang Chengen just now, and his name is Cao Huachun.

Nanzhili, Fengyang Mansion, Prefect Yamen.

As soon as the sky was dark, the prefect Li Changling had already gotten up, and the master Zhang Fang was accompanying him.

"Fuzun, let me go with you! If there is anything, it is good to give Fu Zun an idea. Zhang Fang said with a complicated expression while taking care of Li Changling's outfits.

Shaking his head slowly, Li Changling said with a straight face: "I am the dignified prefect of Fengyang, the four-rank official of the imperial court, the appointment of the imperial court at the top, and the people of Li at the bottom." You are the master, there is no need to take this risk, there is something in the yamen and you still have to decide. ”

Seeing that Li Changling said seriously, Zhang Fang also knew that it was useless to say more, so she didn't speak, and Li Jiuling, who was silent, prepared everything.

"My lord, the proud son is ready to go at any time!" Liu Ya, the head catcher, walked in quickly, he was wearing a robe, a hat on his head, and water shoes on his feet, obviously ready.

Listening to Liu Zhutou's words, Li Changling frowned, and said with an unhappy face: "Liu Zhutou, don't you know the rules of this mansion?" During the Taizu period, it was concluded that the sedan chair was made of people. This house is not old enough to ride a horse, let people prepare horses! ”

Liu Zhutou was reprimanded by splitting his head and covering his face, although he did not refute, but he looked at Zhang Fang on the side with a pitiful face.

gave Liu Zhutou a look, signaled him to be calm, and said to Li Changling: "Lord Fuzun, the heavy rain outside has not stopped now, the road is slippery and muddy, and there is no way to ride a horse." It's much faster to sit on pride than to walk! Afterwards, just give the sedan chair man some more silver, and now the most important thing is the embankment! ”

Glancing at Zhang Fang, Li Jiuling was slightly embarrassed, the weather outside really couldn't ride a horse. However, sitting in a sedan chair is faster than walking, this is Zhang Fang reminding Li Changling, but what he said is very vague.

As a standard scholar of the Ming Dynasty, Li Changling's body is not much better than others, and it can be said that it is much worse. The sedan chair man has naturally walked all kinds of roads, and his physical strength is not a little bit, even if he carries a person, he can walk faster than Li Changling. Besides, the mountains are high and the road is long, muddy and slippery, and I'm afraid something will really happen when you walk.

After hesitating for a moment, Li Changling nodded, now is not the time to delay. glanced at Liu Zhutou, and said in a deep voice: "Find a few good sedan chair men and give people more silver, you know?"

"Don't worry, you understand!" Liu Zhutou smiled at Zhang Fang, listened to Li Jiuling's words, and hurriedly replied respectfully.

"My lord, I don't think you can go like this, let someone inform the white commander! Let him send troops to follow the adults, and if anything happens, there will be manpower! Zhang Fang frowned lightly and said hesitantly.

The Ming Dynasty has a commander in every province, and there is a commander who is a military attache of the second grade. In each prefecture, there is also a guard commander and an envoy, and a guard commander is a military attache of the three grades. Fengyang Mansion has a guard commander envoy, and the commander's surname is Bai, called Bai Lin, who is a real martial artist.

Although Li Jiuling, the prefect of Fengyang, was a civil official of the fourth grade, and Bai Lin, the commander of Wei, was a civil official of the third grade, according to the rules of the Ming Dynasty, the civilian officials controlled the military ministers, so Li Changling could mobilize Bai Lin in a sense.

seemed to feel that what Zhang Fang said made sense, so Li Jiuling nodded lightly and said to Zhang Fang on the side: "That is my post, let Bai Lin send someone over." For Li Jiuling, who was born in Jinshi, Bai Lin of the second grade has not yet been put in his eyes, and most of the civil officials in the Ming officialdom are like this.

None of the people in the room were surprised, Zhang Fang nodded and walked out quickly.

As the commander of the guard, Bai Lin didn't dare to follow, after all, there was no order from above, he left the garrison with his troops privately, but it was no different from a rebellion. However, in the name of protecting Li Jiuling, there is no problem in transferring a team of men and horses under his command.

It didn't take long for Zhang Fang to come back with a man dressed in a thousand households, and behind them were five hundred guards. Although it is not as elite as the border army, after all, it is directly under the jurisdiction of the Governor's Office of the Five Armies in Nanjing, and some are stationed in Fengyang, and it seems that it is also a team with strict military discipline.
