Chapter Ninety-Three: Something Bad Happens
γγγγγγγ
There is a royal pond in the garden behind the Wenhua Palace, in which there are a lot of golden carp, at the east end of the pool, there is a pavilion, in the pavilion, Wei Zhongxian is accompanied by the apocalypse to look at something happily. On the side, Mrs. Fengsheng Ke Yinyue was also smiling, covering her hands and having fun. In the pool, Tu Wenfu, the eunuch who had just returned from the Imperial Horse Prison, was building something shirtless, and there were several eunuchs holding various materials on the side.
"Your Majesty, it's okay, it's time to transfer!"
After eliminating the mechanical failure, Tu Wenfu couldn't wait to climb out of the water, regardless of the water, and demonstrated it excitedly. With the rotation of his hand, soon, a strange object made of wood appeared in the pool, at the top of the wooden frame, there was a water spout, after Tu Wenfu pressed the water full, suddenly the wooden frame began to spray water by itself, and the water flow of the spray was like a bead, or like a waterfall, and it was easy to manipulate, and the flowing water could flow freely, and there was no need for manpower. The splash can even hold up a walnut-sized wooden ball, and it is amazing that it does not fall for a long time.
"The emperor's hand is so skillful, the old slave's eyes are dazzled, tsk, our emperor is really Lu Ban alive! ...β
Wei Zhongxian will be in a good mood, the celebrant has already issued Gu Bingqian's holy decree to reprimand Yang Lian, in his opinion, as long as the holy decree is out of the palace, Yang Lian and the Donglin Party will have to shut up obediently. At that time, the round one is still the one who is square, and it is not up to me to say it. Without worry, this mood will naturally be greater, and he will accompany Tianqile with a smile on his face.
Ke Yinyue wiped the sweat on her forehead with a handkerchief for Tianqi, and said with a coquettish smile: "Our emperor's hands are clever when they are young, not to mention that Lu Ban is alive, I'm afraid that Lu Ban will not be as alive as our emperor." β
"Big Crotch and Baba said that I am too godly, Lu Ban is the patriarch of Mumen, how can I compare."
Apocalypse was modest, but the smile on his face couldn't be stopped. The heart of the game was so big that he couldn't help but roll up his trouser legs, wanting to jump into the pool to play in the water, but Wei Zhongxian and Ke Yinyue were so frightened that they hurriedly grabbed him, and only after repeated persuasion did Tianqi dispel the idea of going into the water.
Tianqi was a little disappointed, thinking of the matter he had told Tu Wenfu a few days ago, he asked him: "Tu Wenfu, have the stools I made been sold?" Do people like it? β
Tu Wenfu's attention was on the machine, he was afraid that there would be another failure, and when he heard Tianqi's question, he hurriedly turned his head and said with a smile: "Back to the emperor, the slave maid took those stools to the market outside Chaoyang Gate to sell, and as soon as the stall was set up, the people gathered around, and they all praised this stool for being exquisitely made, which was more clever than those time-honored brands in Beijing, and it didn't take half an hour for dozens of stools to be sold, and there was no one left!" β
"Really?"
As soon as Tianqi heard that all the stools he made had been bought by the people, he became excited, jumped up like a big child, and shouted happily: "Then next time I will do something else, you will sell it for me!" β
Tu Wenfu said with a smile: "If the people knew that this was made by the emperor himself, I am afraid that they would have to buy it back and provide it every day." β
Hearing this, the apocalypse said disapprovingly: "That's not possible, since I have made it, it is for the people to use, if I don't use it, then what am I selling them for?" β
Wei Zhongxian smiled beside him: "The emperor can rest assured, Wen Fu didn't say that the emperor made it every time he sold it, or the people wouldn't dare to buy it, hehe..."
"Our emperor is honest, by the way, Tu Wenfu, you have sold the things, you have to give the money to the emperor, but you can't carry it in your pocket in private." Ke Shi smiled and said to Tu Wenfu.
Tu Wenfu knew that this was Mrs. Fengsheng making fun of herself, but she said with a straight face: "The slave and maid dare not be greedy for the emperor's silver, and the money from several sales is left in the Qianqing Palace, and the slave and maid will be handed over to the emperor when they turn back." β
Seeing that Tu Wenfu was so serious, Tianqi laughed: "I am the Son of Heaven, what is the use of asking for silver, I will reward you with those goods." β
"Emperor Xie!" Tu Wenfu hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed, how could he care about those copper plates, but this was rewarded by the emperor, no matter how little it was, it was Long En, and he had to be grateful.
Wei Zhongxian and they laughed a few words with Tianqi, and Liu Ruoyu, the eunuch of Si Li Bingbi opposite the pool, didn't know when he came, standing behind the rockery and beckoning to Wei Zhongxian, Wei Zhongxian saw this, and knew that Liu Ruoyu had something to say to himself, so he said to Tianqi: "Your Majesty, you play first, and the old slave will come when he goes." β
"Well, there you go." Tianqi raised his hand, ignoring Wei Zhongxian, and was busy discussing with Tu Wenfu how to improve this machine so that it could spray more fiercely.
Here, as soon as Liu Ruoyu saw Wei Zhongxian, he hurriedly said: "Master Factory, Old Gu Ge sent a message over there and asked Master Factory to go to the cabinet." β
Wei Zhongxian frowned: "Did you say anything?" β
Liu Ruoyu shook his head: "I didn't say it, the person who came only said that it was urgent, and asked the factory master to go anyway." β
Wei Zhongxian thought for a while, nodded and said, "Well, that's good, I'll go and say goodbye to the emperor." When he returned to the pavilion, he whispered to Tianqi: "Your Majesty, there are some miscellaneous affairs in the foreign court, and the old slave has to take care of it." β
After hearing this, Tianqi waved his hand without raising his head, signaling Wei Zhongxian to go by himself, don't bother him. Wei Zhongxian glanced at Tu Wenfu again, and then said to Ke Yinyue: "Madam, old Wei will come when he goes." β
Ke Yinyue glanced at him, and said softly: "You are the factory master, of course there are many things, go quickly, the emperor has me with you." β
Wei Zhongxian smiled, turned around and glanced at Liu Ruoyu, and the two hurriedly walked towards the cabinet.
β¦β¦
"You're saying that all of these notes are meant to impeach our family?"
Looking at the mountains of music in front of him, Wei Zhongxian couldn't help but shudder, his mouth opened and opened, and his face was a little ugly. Liu Ruoyu also looked straight, he had been in the palace for so many years, but it was the first time he saw that the foreign dynasty and the internal ministers could play so much, I think back then, the foreign dynasty was afraid that there were not so many princes for Emperor Shenzong, right?
"These are from the six ministries and nine secretaries, these are from the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and this pile is for the ministries and those minor officials in the ministries. Just then the official called for the number of people, and together with Funing Hou, Zhu Guobi and others, a total of 168 scribbled songs. β
Speaking of this, Gu Bingqian was a little worried: "Judging by this situation, I'm afraid that there will be more tomorrow." β
"These bastards, where did our family offend them, why did they have to kill our family one by one!"
Wei Zhongxian is illiterate, he can't read what he says, he doesn't want to read it, he can guess it with his eyes closed, in short, there is definitely no good word.
"The emperor's decrees have been issued, why do these people still have to be sparse?"
Wei Zhongxian couldn't figure it out, he really couldn't figure it out, according to his assumption, this would be a break from the outside court, and the wind and waves would be calm, how could it be a swarm of bees? Aren't they afraid that the emperor will be annoyed?
Gu Bingqian smiled bitterly: "Chitose, this time I am afraid that the emperor's holy decree will not be used, the matter has already made a big trouble, it seems that there is no end to this matter if there is no distinction between life and death." β
Listening to Gu Bingqian's words, Wei Zhongxian was stunned, and immediately asked him, "What are you going to do with these songs?" β
Gu Bingqian said frankly: "Chitose, Ye Xianggao and Han Yi didn't come today, and the lower officials can suppress it, but if they come tomorrow, then the lower officials will definitely not be able to be the masters, if the lower officials are not mistaken, Ye Han and the others will definitely send these performances to the celebrant supervisor." β
"If you send it to the celebrant supervisor, you will send it to the celebrant supervisor, are we still afraid of them!" Wei Zhongxian snorted angrily, the emperor already knew that Yang Lian was sparse, and he also ordered Yang Lian to be reprimanded, but now the officials refused to stop, it was not him who was beaten, but even the emperor's face! If the emperor can believe them, then it is called a strange thing!
Gu Bingqian also thought of this, but there was one thing he couldn't help but tell Wei Zhongxian. picked up a note from the case and walked to Wei Zhongxian, and said in a deep voice: "Chitose, in fact, those notes can't kill Chitose, it's this letter that kills." β
"Who's?" Wei Zhongxian's gaze looked at Gu Bingqian's hand.
The corners of Gu Bingqian's mouth moved, and he said, "Chen Jugong, the Jinyi guard!" β
"Chen Jugong?" When Wei Zhongxian heard this name, he was taken aback, and blurted out: "Isn't he from our family?" He also scolded our family? β
"Yes." Gu Bingqian nodded, Chen Jugong and Xu Xianchun, like them, are all people who defected to Wei Zhongxian in Jinyiwei.
Wei Zhongxian was stunned again, he didn't expect that even Chen Jugong would turn against him, and couldn't help but say in a lost voice: "What did he say about our family?" β
Wei Bingqian shook his head and said: "What Chen Jugong said in this recital is similar to those, it is nothing more than some clichΓ©s, and everyone is the same. After speaking, he said worriedly: "Chitose, the thousand-mile embankment collapsed in the anthill, this Chen Jugong is a Chitose person, but he openly impeached Chitose, which shows that some of us are unreliable, when Chitose is fine, they come to rely on Chitose, once Chitose has something, these people will show their true colors." Chen Jugong is a person of Jinyiwei, and he doesn't worry about the emperor being influenced by him, but if there are people in the inner court who can get close to the emperor and advance a thousand years old on the emperor, it will be a big deal! β
