Chengze Palace, Ziwei Palace

Ziwei Palace, according to legend, is the residence of the Emperor of Heaven, living in the center of the North Heaven, is the middle palace of the five palaces, also known as the Heavenly Palace, the Purple Palace.

And the Holy Emperor of the Apocalypse thinks that the son of the Emperor of Heaven is the Son of Heaven, so the palace where he lives is named Ziwei Palace.

Even the naming is still like this, especially think that the scale of this Ziwei Palace is huge and the furnishings are magnificent.

Otherwise, how can you afford the name of the palace of the Son of Heaven?

"Your Excellency...... Ahh ”

The inner eunuch outside the palace had just greeted him, and he was about to open his mouth when he saw a golden token appear in front of him!

The two dragons flying and phoenix dancing on it said the word 'Apocalypse', which made his legs and feet immediately weak, and he couldn't help but let out an 'ah' sound, and he knelt on the ground!

"Go and report to Your Majesty, the old man has something important to see immediately!"

The inner eunuch hurriedly got up, and in the strange eyes of the rest of the guards and inner eunuchs, he fled back to the palace.

"Your Excellency! This is ......"

At this moment, the clear-eyed inner supervisor finally vaguely saw the word 'Apocalypse' in the Holy Emperor's personal letter from the token that flashed by!

Combined with the panicked expression of the eunuch in the chamberlain, this old eunuch who had lived in the deep palace for a long time and knew many secret events understood something almost instantly, and exclaimed in disbelief!

"Apocalypse Decree?!"

"Oh?"

Han Yu glanced at him curiously when he heard this, and then slowly bowed his head in response.

"See His Majesty the Holy Emperor!"

When he boarded up, he saw that outside the huge Ziwei Palace, a large number of inner prison guards knelt down neatly, and they said respectfully one by one!

The Holy Decree of the Apocalypse, such as the Holy Person!

However, Han Yu faced this figure kneeling on the ground, but there was no ripple in his heart, there were no waves on his face, and he still looked coldly at the deep palace gate.

From time to time, he coughed violently a few times, so that anyone with a discerning eye could see at a glance that the body of the old minister was ......

It seems to be getting older and haggard, and every day is not as good as a day!

……

In the deep palace, the gauze curtain curtains, in the midst of the shadows, the beautiful maids with graceful figures played instrumental music, making the hall filled with a sound of obscene sound.

The inner prison trotted all the way, passing through the layers of light gauze curtains like a familiar car, and occasionally encountered one or two young bodies covered in red fruits, lying on the ground drunk, and jumping over as if they didn't care too much, as if they had already become accustomed to it.

Just like this, through the layers of curtains, suddenly I was stopped by a gorgeous and delicate arch bridge!

Yes, in this crape myrtle deep palace, there is a flowing water arch bridge, which crosses it!

A trickle of water flows into the dark depths, shimmering in the dim light and complementing the exquisite small arched bridges, like Asgard.

However, the young bodies of the half-fruit, or the whole fruit, lying on the ground horizontally and vertically beside the stream, completely destroyed this poetic Yaochi fairyland.

Among them, there is even a beautiful girl still lying on the side of the flowing water, her mouth is wide open, and she swallows continuously without realizing it, and she actually pours the stream water into her mouth one after another, and at the same time she is still moaning in a demonic voice!

"Drink...... Wine...... Wine...... Wine...... Drink ......"

It turns out that the gurgling water is not a clear spring at all, but a fine wine elixir!!

Of course, for all this in front of him, the internal supervisor was unmoved, let alone dared to look more.

You must know that these are all His Majesty's women, how dare you be a slave like yourself?

He just continued to trot forward, jumping over the arch of the wine pond bridge, and only then could he pass through the side hall and enter the main hall!

Inside the main hall, it is the starting place of His Majesty the Holy Emperor!

"Eh~ Aifei, haven't you stolen some delicious food in the world recently? eng？ ”

On the wide bed, the Holy Emperor of the Apocalypse had a drunken red face, a stomach upright, wearing a red silk robe, lying on his side on the couch, teasing the concubine in his arms and laughing.

And behind him, there is also a concubine who is only dressed in gauze and can look inside half-hidden and half-transparent, who is lightly helping His Majesty beat his shoulders and rub his back.

"Huh? What did Your Majesty say! Concubines...... How dare you steal it! ”

The concubine in her arms immediately laughed, and one hand slowly roamed and stroked His Majesty's chest.

"Oh? How's that...... But it suddenly became a lot bigger, wow? ”

The Holy Emperor of the Apocalypse smiled, suddenly stretched out his hand and wandered away wantonly, and said with a drunken teasing expression.

"Yikes! Your Majesty ~ hates ~~"

The concubine suddenly gasped, and her face blushed on His Majesty's chest, burying her whole little face deep in it.

In an instant, several people were frolicking on the bed......

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Your Majesty ......"

At this moment, the sound of cowardice that suddenly sounded made the Holy Emperor of the Apocalypse sober up and suddenly angry!

"Huh? What kind of thing doesn't have long eyes?! ”

As soon as the words came out, I saw a golden silk soft pillow come out with the sound and slammed it on the face of the inner prisoner!

"Ouch~!"

The inner supervisor immediately exclaimed, and immediately kowtowed again and again, begging for mercy in a panic!

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty! It's not the villain who wants to disturb you! It's the Prime Minister who wants to see him! ”

"Huh? The old prime minister asks to meet?? ”

Hearing the name of the Prime Minister, the Holy Emperor of the Apocalypse with an angry face seemed to have finally woken up, and his face showed a little clarity.

It's just that since the founding of Dali, the old prime minister has never taken the initiative to come to this Ziwei Palace to meet him, either speaking out at the court meeting, or asking for a private meeting in the Imperial Palace.

If it happens that he does not handle government affairs in the Imperial Palace, he will stay in the palace and wait for his royal car to come in person.

As for today, I went straight to the Ziwei Palace to meet him...... But it's never been before!

"Yes, Your Majesty! The Prime Minister said that there is something important that needs to be seen immediately! ”

The inner prisoner knelt on the ground, his body trembling and saying.

Hearing this, the Holy Emperor of the Apocalypse was suddenly stunned, and then pondered for a long time, and suddenly looked down, only to find that he was already weak and had no interest, and he was angry in his heart at the moment, and immediately shouted!

"Someone! I pulled this thing that didn't have long eyes down and cooked it!! ”

When the inner supervisor heard this, he immediately collapsed to the ground in horror, and exclaimed in panic and helplessness!

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty's mercy, Your Majesty! Spare your life, Your Majesty!! ”

However, even so, it could not change his fate in the slightest, and at that moment, two armor soldiers appeared from the shadows, one covered his mouth, and the other tied his body, and forcibly dragged away.

During the drag, the man who covered his mouth kept observing the breath of the unlucky eunuch, and deliberately exposed his nose, for fear of covering this person to death on the way.

After all, what His Majesty just confessed was to cook this person to death, so he must be cooked alive, not halfway!

After casually killing this short-eyed inner prisoner, the Holy Emperor of the Apocalypse felt the depression in his chest, and he couldn't help but look at the side with a smile like a flower, and the two concubines who were obviously accustomed to this, although they were covered in light veils, they were very personable, but they had suddenly lost their interest, and they snorted depressedly.

"Someone...... Let's meet the old minister. ”

……

Outside the Ziwei Palace, Han Yu was announced by His Majesty, and immediately sorted out his clothes and set off with a solemn expression.

But as soon as Fang entered the hall and passed through the layers of gauze tents, only a few dozen steps, a faint sound hovered beside his ears, causing him to frown slightly.

Continuing to move forward, the sudden appearance of the woman's red fruit body frightened the old minister Han Yu immediately, and hurriedly covered his eyes with wide sleeves, shaking his head while walking forward quickly, but he only looked at the road under his feet, and did not dare to squint at all.

After traveling like this for a long time, the gorgeous arch bridge that suddenly stopped in front of him made Han Yu stunned on the spot.

It seems that he never thought that there would be such a scene as the Jade Pond Immortal Palace in this Ziwei Palace!

However, as soon as he smelled the diffuse smell of wine, he immediately glanced left and right, and his complexion changed greatly, and he hurriedly covered his eyes again, and his mouth was full of sins and sins, and he did not dare to stop at all and walked forward quickly.

Until he completely got away from the 'wine pond meat forest', Han Yu still felt that his face was red and his ears were red, and his mind was difficult to calm down for a long time!

"Ahem, ahem, ......"

After a violent cough in the wind, Han Yu's originally upright figure inevitably became a little rickety.

He froze silently in place, his eyes speechless for a long time, and his mind was so mixed that it was difficult to figure out the clues......

I am so flustered, but how can I face the saint?

Han Yu had no choice but to stand still, silently reciting the articles of Zhuzi to calm his mind, and then gradually tidy up his face, and continued to move forward as if he was calm.

……

"Old minister...... See Your Majesty! ”

When he finally stepped into the main hall and came to the royal couch, Han Yu had already managed not to squint, not to look at the two beautiful concubines beside His Majesty, and bowed to the ground and said respectfully.

"Ouch! Old Prime Minister! This is a great gift...... But what do you mean?! ”

The Holy Emperor of the Apocalypse was drunk and leaned on the couch, enjoying the service of the two concubines peacefully, but the old prime minister suddenly made this big gift, but he was shocked and got up suddenly, and waved his hand again and again.

"Old Prime Minister! Hurry up, please! Hurry up, please! ”

It is necessary to know that the position of the minister of state is the best of the people!

And Han Yu has been with the Holy Emperor of the Apocalypse for decades, accompanying him all the way to the expedition and helping the Great Wei to achieve the hegemony of the Central Plains!

Even after the founding of Da Li, Han Yu has been promoted from prime minister to prime minister, but when the Holy Emperor of the Apocalypse met Han Yu, he still called himself the old prime minister!

It can be seen that the friendship between Han Yu and the Holy Emperor of the Apocalypse is so deep that it almost surpasses any of the founding ministers of the Dali Dynasty!

Therefore, when Han Yu always met the Holy Emperor of the Apocalypse, he just bowed down, so why did he make such a big gift?

And now, the old prime minister knelt down as soon as he entered, how could the Holy Emperor of the Apocalypse not be surprised, how could he not be surprised?

"Your Majesty! The old minister has important things to discuss with His Majesty! I beg your Majesty to hold back! ”

Han Yu was unmoved by the words of the Heavenly Apocalypse Holy Emperor signaling to get up, but straightened his waist and said solemnly.

"This ......"

Seeing this, the Holy Emperor of the Apocalypse waved his hand helplessly, and then retreated from all the maidservants around him.

"Your Majesty! Please also ask the two mothers to move here! ”

However, Han Yu was still unmoved, and said insistently.

"Huh? The two concubines are not outsiders, so why ......"

The Holy Emperor of the Apocalypse was stunned for a moment, and his words and expressions were quite puzzled.

"Your Majesty!"

However, at this moment, I saw Han Yu take out a golden token from his sleeve, hold it high in his palms, and kowtow again!

"The old minister does have important things to do with my Dali country! Please also ask the two mothers to move here! ”

"This?!"

The Holy Emperor of the Apocalypse held his stomach up, and when he saw the familiar golden token, he couldn't help but grab it in his hand, but he woke up in an instant!

After confirming that it was the apocalyptic decree that he personally gave to the old prime minister back then, he couldn't help but sigh lightly and immediately waved his hand.

"Two concubines...... Let's avoid it for now. ”

When the two concubines saw this situation, they didn't know how powerful they were, so they hurriedly retreated, and retreated respectfully.

Suddenly, in the huge main hall, only the Holy Emperor of the Apocalypse and the Minister of State Han Yu remained, and the obscene sound that filled the air and loomed in the air.

"Old Prime Minister...... Now it's time to get up! ”

The Holy Emperor of the Apocalypse sighed helplessly, and was ready to reach out and help the old prime minister get up.

"Your Majesty! If you refuse to accede to the minister's request, the minister will kneel down today! ”

However, in the face of the Heavenly Apocalypse Holy Emperor personally supporting him, Han Yu was still unmoved and insisted on speaking.

"The old prime minister~ Why is this...... Why is that! ”

The Holy Emperor of the Apocalypse suddenly sighed, but he was really helpless, so he had to persuade him peacefully.

"But what's the matter, the old prime minister can say it bluntly!"

When Han Yu heard this, he said emotionally.

"Your Majesty! Lao Chen has been ...... recently The more difficult it is, the worse your physical condition! I know that the end is coming, and my life is short! ”

"What? Old Prime Minister! Why didn't you inform the widow sooner? The widow will send the imperial doctor to heal the old prime minister now! ”

The Holy Emperor of the Apocalypse was finally shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly checked carefully, only to find that the old prime minister really looked haggard, not as good as before!

This made him a little flustered!

It must be known that the old prime minister is in Da Li, which is tantamount to the pillar stone of the town and country, which is unique!

If he dies, the prime minister of this country will take his place - but who will take it?!

"Your Majesty...... The body of the old minister, only the old minister knows himself! I'm afraid I can't go back to heaven......"

Han Yu shook his head suddenly, and said with tears in his eyes.

"Now! Now the only thing I can rest assured! But it's behind you!! ”

Saying this, Han Yu grabbed the Holy Emperor's hand and said abruptly!

"The only thing the old minister is worried about so far! It is the successor of the country! ”

The Holy Emperor of the Apocalypse was suddenly overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly asked as if he was moved!

"The old prime minister is here today...... Could it be that there is already a suitable candidate to recommend?! ”

You must know that the old prime minister almost never misses!

If he thinks that the person he recommends, it will definitely be enough to replace him as the successor minister and preside over the government of Dali!

"Exactly! Your Majesty! The old minister has been worried about this matter for several years, and even did not hesitate to search for talents in Kyushu until recently...... The deadline is approaching! That's what I finally learned!! ”

As soon as the old prime minister said this, the Holy Emperor of the Apocalypse was overjoyed, and he continued to ask questions when he was busy!

"Huh? Really? But I don't know who the old prime minister wants to recommend?! ”

"This person ...... After the old minister's careful investigation for months, the school was carefully examined! It does have the ability to govern the world and strengthen the country, and it is really a rare talent for thousands of years! ”

Seeing that His Majesty valued his recommendation so much, Han Yu hurriedly said with joy and excitement!

"Haha! That's great! If you can get the old prime minister's words, you must be a great talent for governing the country! ”

The Holy Emperor of the Apocalypse was overjoyed, but his heart was relieved, and he felt very stable when he learned that there was a successor to the position of Prime Minister.

So while his heart was hot, he was busy and asked again.

"Such a talent, but I don't know who it is? What kind of job do you live in now? ”

However, the Heavenly Apocalypse Holy Emperor's ordinary question suddenly made Han Yu stunned on the spot, and he had to smile bitterly.

"This person's name is Wei Ying, and he is currently temporarily serving as a Taishi warden in the Taishi Academy......"

As soon as these words came out, the Heavenly Apocalypse Holy Emperor was greatly stunned, and he immediately knocked on his head, trying his best to recall the Chinese military officials in his mind, but he was stunned that he did not find the slightest sense of familiarity!

"This Wei Martingale ...... But I don't know where I came from? How is it that the widow has never heard of this man? And what else is this Taishi Pawn...... Do I still have such a position in the court? ”

The Holy Emperor of the Apocalypse is really a little confused at the moment, Wei Ying......?

...... the Taishi Warden?

This? Why are they all so strange?!

"Ahem...... Returning to His Royal Highness, Wei Ying was born in a poor family, not a famous family...... As for the position of the Taishi Warden, it is the Taishi Academy, responsible for sorting out the classics, transcribing the scriptures, and ......"

In the end, even Han Yu was a little embarrassed, and he was speechless for a while, not knowing how to explain.

After all, Wei Ying's rank is so low, he simply belongs to a small warden who does not enter the stream, and such a small official is trying to ascend to the sky in one step and get into the position of the prime minister of the country!

Even he, a person who knew Wei Ying's talent, was suddenly embarrassed when he said it from his mouth at this moment......

"What? This Wei Ying is actually from a poor family? And it's just a small official who manages the classics?? ”

The Heavenly Apocalypse Holy Emperor was stunned on the spot, no wonder he had never heard of this name, nor had he ever heard of such an official position.

It turned out to be a fly official the size of a sesame mung bean that was not in the grade!

"This ......"

The old prime minister actually recommended this person, which is really unexpected, unbelievable!

Seeing that the Holy Emperor was silent for a while, as if he was shocked by this nameless little official, Han Yu immediately hurriedly added!

"Your Majesty! Don't underestimate Wei Ying because of his humble background, and his official position for a while! What this person has learned all his life is really the law of the great road of the king's world! It will definitely help me to sweep the world and unify Kyushu, Your Majesty!! ”

"Oh? Is that really the case?! ”

The Holy Emperor of the Apocalypse suddenly heard the words of 'the law of the king's world' and 'sweeping the world and unifying Kyushu', but even though he was greatly moved, he couldn't help but say out loud!

"That's so high-minded...... But I don't know which famous master I studied with? ”

"Uh, this ......"

Han Yu was suddenly choked on the spot again, and he couldn't speak for a while!

But seeing that the curiosity in His Majesty's eyes became more and more intense, in the end, he could only tell the truth.

"Your Majesty...... Wei Ying's teacher is really a master outside the world, and he once said that after entering the WTO, everything but on his own, he should not borrow the name of the teacher in vain, and he will become a famous and famous person......"

The Holy Emperor of the Apocalypse was suddenly stunned on the spot when he heard this, and then he was speechless for a long time, just looking at the old prime minister motionless in such a daze, and after Han Yu was a little at a loss, he suddenly burst out laughing!

"Hahaha! The old prime minister is confused! What kind of talent is this person who has not been born for a thousand years? In the opinion of the widow...... I'm afraid it's not some charlatan! Hahahaha! ”

As he spoke, he couldn't stop laughing out loud, and even laughed until he half-bowed, and slowly sat back on the couch with difficulty.

"Your Majesty! The old minister is by no means confused, Your Majesty!! ”

Han Yu was immediately startled, and hurriedly crawled to the front of His Majesty with his hands and feet, and said with sincere excitement on his face!

"This person's talent is far ten times and a hundred times better than that of the old minister, Your Majesty!!"

"Hahahahaha! Ten times ...... Hundredfold?? ”

When the Holy Emperor of the Apocalypse heard this, he was even more exaggerated, pointing at the old prime minister and laughing!

Between his words and expressions, he has unabashedly shown that he has decided in his heart that Wei Ying is a charlatan, and the old prime minister is old and confused, and he has unfortunately been deceived!

You must know that the talent of the old prime minister is enough to be called a good appearance that is rare in a hundred years!

And what kind of nameless little official Wei Ying, dare to say that he is far more talented than the old prime minister ten or a hundred times?

Such an incoherent person is not a charlatan, but how??

"Your Majesty......"

Seeing this, Han Yu suddenly collapsed to the ground weakly, how could he not understand in his heart, His Majesty did not believe what he said at all, let alone choose to use Wei Ying!

At this moment, with tears in his eyes, he was almost in tears, but the situation of mentioning this matter to Wei Ying that day suddenly appeared in his mind......

On that day, in the private room of the Tianzi Pavilion of the Inviting Moon Pavilion, he asked Wei Ying to be a guest with Wen Qian, the holy player of the chess way, and disclosed his identity for the first time, bluntly saying that he would strongly recommend Wei Ying and let him replace him as the minister of the country!

Ordinary people, when they suddenly hear such shocking news, how can they not panic and lose their minds?

However, when Wei Ying heard this, he was not surprised, not impatient, and said frankly on the spot.

"Your Excellency...... It's not that Martingale is proud of himself and deliberately refuses to resign, but Martingale has long been self-aware, and His Majesty the Holy Emperor will never reuse me! ”

"I won't hand over the position of prime minister to me, a little historian!"

To this day, seeing His Majesty the Holy Emperor laughing so exaggeratedly, Han Yu only felt that everything was ...... It seems that it has been predicted in advance by Wei Ying!

His Majesty the Holy Emperor really didn't need Wei Ying, and he didn't even want to believe his old friend, who had known each other for decades......

Thinking of this, he finally couldn't hold back his old tears, and cried on the spot!

"Your Majesty! You...... You really don't need Wei Ying?! ”

"Hi yo ~ hi yo ~"

The Holy Emperor of the Apocalypse was really happy to laugh, and only at this point did he reluctantly stop, and his mouth slowed down for a long time like 'hey' and 'hey', and then he forced a smile and continued.

"Old Prime Minister...... You're old, you're old...... Let's go back to the house to recuperate and heal with peace of mind......"

Between the words, he didn't accept this stubble at all, and since then he has cut off all the thoughts of the old prime minister to recommend talents!

When Han Yu heard this, he felt that his mind was dizzy, his eyes were black, and he almost fell over!

At this moment, how could he not know that His Majesty the Holy Emperor would never be able to reuse Wei Ying!!

But he still didn't want to give up, and just with the loyalty to His Majesty the Holy Emperor and the Great Li Dynasty in his heart, he suddenly shouted!

"Your Majesty!"

He held on to the last bit of strength and screamed as hard as he could!

"No need for this person! Kill this person!! ”

……

"In the twelfth year of the Book of Heaven, Han Yu, the prime minister and the first assistant of the cabinet, entered the forbidden palace with the Holy Order of the Apocalypse, asking to see the Holy Emperor of the Apocalypse.

Although the Holy Emperor was sick on the couch and unable to go to the court to govern the government, the country still tried his best to welcome him in person.

Yu entered the Ziwei Palace, knelt down with the order and said: 'The minister knows that the limit is approaching, and he is worried about his heart, but he is behind him! ’

'Since ancient times, the virtuous have not avoided relatives, and now they have an order to meet him, but there is no other request, but I recommend my son Han Xin, who will be appointed as the Minister of State and the first assistant of the cabinet! ’

The Holy Emperor was silent, and said in a deep voice: 'Since ancient times, the tiger father has no dogs, and the new talent is intelligent, and he must be a great talent!' ’

"However, the widow heard that the Taishi Warden of the Taishi Academy, Wei Ying, is really a rare royal genius for thousands of years! But I don't know which martingale is stronger or weaker? ’

Yu laughed and said abruptly: "Wei Yingqi is not a famous family, not a famous master's apprentice, not a person with both virtue and exercise, just a small official's ear, why worry about it?" ’

The Holy Emperor pondered for a long time, but still believed in the words of the Minister of State, although he did not appoint a new replacement for the Prime Minister, but promoted him directly into the cabinet, which is the most old and young for the cabinet!

Therefore, Martingale is such a great talent that has not been produced for thousands of years, and it is a pity to miss it with Da Li!

Alas! Han Yu's old thief, for his own selfishness, caused the Wei people to be forced to surrender to Qin, and he is really a sinner of the country! ”
