Chapter 14: The Search for the Sword
Liu Ill has arrived in the court, Tingwei is busy stepping forward, the emperor is coming in person, it is a blessing or a curse, how can he not be nervous, so he cautiously followed him.
Liu Yi seemed to ignore the tension in this room, and waved his hand, "All the secretaries are busy with each other, I can come here to take a look at my ears." After finishing speaking, he really walked casually, but how dare the people below leave like this, they looked at each other one by one, looking at Ting Wei, hoping that he could give a word.
Ting Wei didn't know what His Majesty's purpose was here, and he didn't dare to let them leave at will, but just let everyone stand where they were, while he followed His Majesty.
Of course, with the good brother Liu Ill has become the emperor, Zhang He's official career is also soaring, and he has already left the court, and now this court lieutenant was Zhang He's confidant, and he also knew the relationship between His Majesty and Zhang He, and he didn't know what to say, so he tried to talk about Zhang He's past with Liu Ai, but it really made Liu Ai frown, looked at the restless crowd standing behind him, and then said: "Retreat." "Liu Ill has come here, not to embarrass these people, but for another matter.
Here Liu Ai has already arrived in the court, and Huo Guang over there has also learned the news, to say that Huo Guang also wondered, what did His Majesty do in the court in a dignified manner, could it be that he had done things in the court and went to visit his old friend, but if he said that he was visiting an old friend, he could be summoned to the palace, why bother to take a large team of people and go in person, and under the puzzled situation, he ordered people to continue to pay attention to Liu Aiji's whereabouts.
Liu Yi has been looking under the table from time to time in the court, and from time to time to go around the corner, it can be said that he will look wherever it is inconspicuous, sometimes frowning, sometimes squatting down for the robe, as if he is looking for something, such a big movement, it is difficult for the Tingwei who follows him not to notice it.
"What is Your Majesty looking for?" After hesitating, Ting Wei asked carefully.
Hearing the sound, Liu Yi had stopped looking for it, "I have something that may have fallen in the court." "Anyway, I look pity.
When Ting Wei heard this, he unconsciously became nervous, the emperor's things fell into the court, it was definitely a big deal, and he hurriedly asked: "Dare to ask Your Majesty what it is, your subordinates can also order people to find each other, and there is always a greater chance that more people will find it." ”
Liu Yi thought for a while, and said: "This is very good, I recently found that I often follow my side of the Kun Wu sword does not know where to go, Nian has been in the court to deal with things, specially come to find each other, pass on my order, if anyone finds this sword, the official will be promoted to a higher level, and the reward will be for one year, in order to express my intentions." ”
The emperor's will, whether it was for the reward, or to get the emperor's attention, the court instantly became busy, and one by one began to look for His Majesty's old sword, but the search for a long time was fruitless, Liu Yi had to be disappointed and returned, and issued a summoning order on the morning of the second day:
I have a slight time of the old sword, now I don't know where to go, remember the old times all the time, now lost, tossing and turning, can you find it for me, if you find this sword, for the official to be promoted to the next level, ordinary people if they want to enter the court can be knighted, not for the official, reward a hundred taels of silver, talk about my gratitude.
Liu Ai has given this decree, and when all the ministers figured out what it meant, Huo Guang had already learned what it was, so the micro sword was not as good as the people of the time, so he ordered that in order to solve the holy worries, the guards everywhere were dispatched to find this old sword for His Majesty, if it could not be found, it would be dealt with according to military law.
If the emperor's will is said, it is the people who mobilize it, and the words of the great Sima general Bo Luhou are to use the power of the army, and for a time the government and the opposition are up and down, and the focus has become to find a sword for His Majesty.
Seeing this, Bing Ji felt bad in his heart, and hurriedly went to Huo Mansion to persuade Huo Guang, "General, Your Majesty is young and vigorous, but it is also a good thing to miss the old feelings, and since the general has decided to fulfill it, it is better to withdraw the order." ”
Therefore, the micro sword, regardless of whether this sword is really something, in order to show that he misses the old love, a sword can not be forgotten, not to mention the old man who has been with him, Liu Ai has clearly used this sword to tell the world that he wants to seal his wife Xu Pingjun as the queen, which is equivalent to telling everyone that his Liu illness is not rare, and he does not want the Huo family's palm pearl to be the queen, which makes Huo Guang's face how to hang up. So, Huo Guang was angry, if you want to find the sword, I will do what you want, let everyone find the sword for you, and if you can't find it at that time, see how you end up!
"As a courtier, you should worry about the king's worries, Your Majesty is worried about this sword, how can Huo turn a blind eye?" Originally, I was thinking about fulfilling their husband and wife, and I was worried about how to withdraw the fire, but His Majesty came to such a trick again, this time, if his daughter is not the queen, His Majesty does not want it, and at this time the compromise will not become a joke in the world.
Bing Ji's persuasion was fruitless, so he had to find another place, and when he was about to leave Huofumen, he met Huo Chengjun who returned from the temple.
"Doctor Bing, why is your face full of sadness, but what happened to the court?" Bing Ji went to the house, there was no need to guess, Huo Chengjun also knew that he was looking for his father, he was puzzled, and his father was afraid that he would also have troubles, so Huo Chengjun asked him.
Seeing Huo Chengjun, Bing Ji was like seeing a savior, and he hurriedly talked about the cause and effect, everyone knows that Huo Guang is in pain to the bones for the little daughter here, he may not listen to the words of others, but the words of the little daughter may be useful.
"That edict Chengjun has also heard that there are so many smart people in the court, they know what Your Majesty means, and Chengjun will persuade him on his father's side, but he also needs His Majesty to give me a step down the Huo family, I don't know what Doctor Bing thinks?" Such a sensational thing for the government and the opposition, how could Huo Chengjun not know, she was the one who had seen the sword, and Liu Yi already understood what his intentions were, but her pride, the face of the Huo family, could not be trampled on by him like this, and he was willing to fulfill them, but he also had to seek a plan to achieve both.
Regarding Huo Chengjun's idea, Bing Ji nodded again and again, "It's so labor-rich niece." "For Huo Chengjun's shot, Bing Ji can be regarded as a thousand thanks, and things finally have room for change, and the monarch and the minister do not have to be stiff, after all, the government is stable, and if the monarch and the minister fight inwardly because of anger, it will definitely let the people who are eyeing the tiger take the opportunity to enter; However, Bing Ji knew very well that His Majesty was out of the way this time, how to persuade him, and it was difficult for him to come forward.
Liu Ying had already seen that Huo Guang had expanded the matter, but he didn't know how to end it, after all, the sword had always been in Xu Pingjun's hand, and his intention was to tell the courtiers who had been openly and secretly leaving the Huo family's daughter as the queen, and the queen was the queen, and he wanted Xu Pingjun in his heart; Second, in order to tell Huo Chengjun, who knew the whereabouts of the sword, Mo was delusional, but he was impulsive, and it was difficult to take it back, the sword was not found, Huo Guang did not let go, this matter was not over, and he still could not achieve the goal of establishing Xu Pingjun as the queen.
