The First Arrival Chapter 37 Captain Nanban (4)

Lei Heng has no objection to going to pay tribute to Han Zong, even if it is a seven-day vigil. What he cares about is the etiquette system of "keeping filial piety for three years". Although he is not Han Zong's nephew, his father and master are his disciples, and if he also needs to keep filial piety for a year and a half, he can't afford to delay.

Lei Heng knew that in the pre-Qin period, eunuchs were responsible for court chores, in charge of sacrifices and other errands, and in the Qin and Han dynasties, eunuchs began to participate in political affairs, serving as attendants, conveying the emperor's edicts, in charge of documents, and even influencing the emperor's hearing and hearing.

Thinking about things such as sacrifices, Feng Yu must have some understanding. Lei Heng couldn't help but ask directly: "My nephew doesn't know much about the sacrificial ritual system, dare to ask my uncle if he knows his statutes?" ”

Feng Zhen laughed and proudly showed off: "You can ask the right person." My uncle is in charge of Yongxiang, the Imperial Palace, and the Ancestral Halls in the palace, and the royal sacrifices cannot be sloppy, and I know the details very well. "Etiquette and Mourning Clothes" requires that the son is the parent, the wife is the husband, and the minister is the king, and the filial piety needs to be kept for three years. During the mourning period, no marriage, no entertainment, no bathing, no drinking and eating meat, no husband and wife must not have the same room, they must live in a simple straw hut, and those who have official positions must be dismissed from their official homes and mourned, etc. ”

"Keep filial piety for three years!" Lei Heng was worried about this.

"It's not too demanding. Throughout the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period to the Qin and Han dynasties, except for Confucius's disciples who held a three-year mourning for Confucius, there was no case of a person who had completed three years. Even filial sons, such as Yan Ying of Qi State for his father Yan Huanzi, Wu Zi Zhufan for his father Wu Zicheng, and the assassin Nie Zheng for his mother, are also the end of the funeral after the burial, and the time is generally three months or 100 days, which is called "both burial and removal of clothes". If your father is stubborn, it doesn't hurt him to keep it for three years. Feng Yu turned his head and asked Lei Heng, "The taste of mourning is not pleasant, why should Heng'er suffer that sin, your mother is tired, and your uncle is not easy to explain here." ”

"My nephew is willing to mourn for his father...... Ten days of mourning......" Lei Heng hurriedly picked up the conversation, "Please also ask my uncle to help me!" ”

"That's nature, why should a family be polite." Feng Zhen became more and more fond of Lei Heng, and couldn't help but say tentatively: "Heng'er, it's better for your family to move to Luoyang, and your uncle will pay for you to buy a thousand-stone official position......

Sengoku official position? Lei Heng was overjoyed in his heart, he was really sleepy and met a pillow, how could he let go of such a good thing.

"I don't know what official position my uncle is going to seek for my nephew?"

"Bus Sima Ling, six hundred stones."

"What is this for?" Lei Heng is not familiar with the official position of the court.

"That is, the 'bus order', which is responsible for managing the Nanque Gate, receiving the letters of the officials and the people, the tributes from the four sides, and those who are conscripted to the bus mansion. It's a fat ......."

Regardless of whether the money is or not, what is the use of such a fat gap! Lei Heng was still noncommittal.

"Heng'er thinks the official position is low? That Fengche Du Lieutenant, more than two thousand stones. How is it? ”

"In charge of what?"

"Responsible for managing the emperor's car."

It's about the same as a groom, don't! Lei Heng looked disgusted.

"Nantun Sima, Bi Qianshi, is in charge of the Pingcheng Gate. This door-to-door day is a lot of money entrusted by others, and my uncle can't bear to let you go. ”

Lei Heng suddenly realized: Feng Zhen really wanted to reunite with his family, but he was reluctant to have power in the palace and Luoyang's industry, so he had to come to Luoyang with his own family.

But this is obviously contrary to his own plan, giving a 2,000 stone vacant position, but making himself a caged bird with his wings tied, why bother?

"The nephew wants to get out of town. For example, Hanzhong Taishou and Bajun Taishou ......"

"Hanzhong Shan Yang is His Majesty's person, but Bajun Li Sheng is taking the path of Zhang Rang. Heng'er wants to be an official in these two places, which really makes it difficult for his uncle! ”

"Other Taishou positions in Yizhou and Jingzhou are also available."

"It's better to live in a temple than to defend one side, Heng'er doesn't know anything!" Feng Yu seemed to be a little annoyed, and Lei Heng didn't know what to do.

Lei Heng hurriedly snorted, and instead proposed to enter the palace to perform, which was considered to avoid this topic for the time being.

The two nephews chatted for another half an hour, and Lei Heng said that he was not worried about his entourage and would come to see him again tomorrow, so he politely refused the proposal to stay in the mansion.

Feng Zhen sighed and personally sent him out of the mansion.

As soon as Lei Heng came out of the mansion, Xi Zhong and Dian Wei eagerly greeted him.

Xi Zhong asked softly: "Look at the look of the lord, but Feng Yu is unwilling to help?" ”

Lei Heng smiled bitterly and replied: "Uncle is willing to pay money to get an official position for me, but he is only limited to the official position of the court, and he can't get out of Luoyang City." However, he also agreed to arrange for me to perform in the palace, and it seems that he can only rely on the monkey soldier drill to win the favor of the Spirit Emperor...... In the past few days, I have to go to Han Zong's mansion to fulfill my filial piety, and Lao Zhicai (Xi Zhongbiao) will take care of everything for me......"

Xi Zhong bowed again and said: "Dare not be unsatisfied!" ”

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

After a month and a half, everything was complete, and Lei Heng finally waited for the news of the seal: he would enter the palace early tomorrow morning to perform.

Lei Heng hurriedly summoned everyone to assign tasks one by one, and secretly released the repeated instructions of the monkey kings and monkeys to ensure that nothing went wrong.

Early the next morning, Feng Yu took Lei Heng and the monkey team, who were already ready to go, and headed towards the palace.

All the way to the main hall, Feng Yu slipped a cigarette and went to the inner palace to report. Lei Heng was led by a small yellow door, waiting outside the palace, without the summons of Emperor Han Ling, he was not qualified to enter.

However, Lei Heng didn't care, but looked at this Luoyang Palace with interest, the four palaces of east, west, north and south are complete, it is really spectacular, but it is a pity, if history has not changed, five years later, Dong Zhuo entered Luoyang, and a fire burned the prosperous Luoyang Palace, which is a pity.

"Xuan Lei Heng is here!" I don't know how long I waited, but just when Lei Heng was about to fall asleep, a voice like a duck's voice came from the hall.

Immediately, Lei Heng came to his senses, straightened his clothes, and walked in quickly.

As soon as he stepped into the inner palace, more than ten pairs of eyes glared at him, which couldn't help but make Lei Heng stunned, and his feet couldn't help but slow, this kind of majestic scene really shocked him.

At the top sat a middle-aged man in a dragon robe, looking to be in his thirties, no need to ask, this person is naturally Liu Hong, the current Emperor of the Han Dynasty.

And Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty had the upper hand, and there were also several internal servants, naturally Zhang Rang, Zhao Zhong, Feng Yu, Duan Qi and other "ten permanent attendants".

After calming down, Lei Heng strode into the hall, and respectfully saluted Emperor Han Ling: "Lei Heng, the grass people, has seen Your Majesty. ”

"No need to be polite!" Emperor Han Ling waved his hand nonchalantly and looked at Lei Heng with interest.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Lei Heng said calmly, raised his head at the same time, and looked at this Han Ling Emperor with some curiosity, wanting to see what this Han Ling Emperor looked like.

I saw that this Emperor Han Ling was also of medium height, and his face did not have the majesty of the Son of Heaven at all, but more of a laziness, and there was a bit of frivolity on his pale face, thinking that it was because of the excessive wine, it would be like this, no wonder this Emperor Han Ling died five years later.

"Bold, how dare you be rude to Your Majesty!" At this moment, a shout came.

Lei Heng couldn't help but be stunned, turned his head and glanced at the fat pig-like middle-aged man who had just scolded him, and a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes.

Who is this man? And after I entered the hall, I said a total of one sentence, how could I have offended Emperor Han Ling.

"Your Majesty, Lei Heng is facing the saint for the first time, he doesn't understand etiquette, he didn't mean to look directly at His Majesty, and I ask Your Majesty to atone for your sins!" Feng Yu on the side hurriedly apologized.

"Hey! He Aiqing, those who don't know are not guilty, don't care too much! Emperor Han Ling said to the fat pig nonchalantly, and at the same time turned his head to look at Lei Heng, and asked, "You are Lei Heng Lei Zhengyan?" ”

Immediately, Lei Heng suddenly realized, it turned out that it was for this reason that ordinary people basically lowered their heads when they saw Emperor Han Ling, and did not dare to look directly, otherwise they would be offended by Long Wei, but this kind of thing is just that, there are really few people who really care, and Emperor Han Ling has never cared about this kind of thing.

But now he is being used as an excuse by the fat pig, in order to deter himself. But thinking about the identity of this fat pig, Lei Heng also understood, and couldn't help but show a disdainful smile. He Aiqing, who else is there besides Yin He Jin in Henan.

On the one hand, he presented treasures to him, but in the blink of an eye, he became the nephew of Feng Zhen, and He Jin naturally did not have a good face for himself.

Mistakes, what mistakes!

How could you make such a big oolong!

I want to make good friends with my relatives and eunuchs, and I am too naΓ―ve to seek more benefits by stepping on two boats. Indeed, it should be handled with caution as Zheng Hun admonished. This is a big problem.

He Jin, who has always been at odds with the eunuchs, naturally counts Lei Heng as the eunuch's faction, how could he give up the opportunity to suppress and deter himself.

He Jin snorted coldly, didn't say anything more, and retreated to his place. He came to knock on the mountain and shake the tiger like this, just to knock Lei Heng and warn the "Ten Standing Servants" by the way.

"It's the grass people!" Lei Heng responded neither humbly nor arrogantly.

Emperor Han Ling's eyes flashed, his body stood forward, and he asked with some excitement: "It is rumored that you have obtained the inheritance of immortals, and you can drive beasts and birds, is that true?" ”

Yes? Lei Heng was stunned when he heard this, I can call pets just by relying on the golden finger of the system, how can there be any immortals? However, he said humbly: "The grass people dare not deceive Your Majesty, it is true." ”

Emperor Han Ling became even more excited when he heard this, and said incoherently: "Where is the immortal who taught you the magic arts, let him come to see me, no, I want to visit the immortal in person!" ”

Lei Heng showed a helpless smile on his face and said, "Your Majesty, after the immortal taught the grass people this time, he left directly, and the grass people don't know where he is now!" ”

"What!" Emperor Han Ling exclaimed, a trace of anger flashed on his face, that immortal didn't know where it was, so how could he ask for the elixir, without the elixir, how could he be immortal.

Seeing this, Lei Heng hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, that immortal once told the grass people that there will be a day to meet the grass people in the future, and the grass people will definitely introduce them to Your Majesty!" ”

Hit a stick and give a sweet date, this Emperor Han Ling knew that he couldn't find an immortal now, his dream of immortality was shattered, and he couldn't help but be angry and ashamed, and when the time came, it would be a tragedy to be angry.

Therefore, Lei Heng didn't finish his words, and gave him a thought about Emperor Han Ling, so that he still had a trace of illusion about that immortal in his heart, so that the benefit to himself was the greatest.

As for the immortal, let him hell with it, there is no such person at all, anyway, in five years, Emperor Han Ling will have braids, and he will drag it slowly.

Hearing this, Emperor Han Ling's face also eased, he glanced at Lei Heng deeply, and said earnestly: "Then you have to remember, if the immortals come, you must tell me as soon as possible." ”

"The grass people obey!" Lei Heng smiled indifferently.
