Chapter 866: Chess Pieces (2)
Zhilan seems to be gentle and delicate, but she actually has a strong temperament. Otherwise, she would not have become the most useful female official by Empress Dowager Yu's side.
Father-in-law Lu and Zhilan have been eating together for several years, although they have not shared the same bed, their relationship is extremely deep. share joys and sorrows, like all loving couples in the world.
Zhilan's tears, Lu Gonggong's heart was like a knife, he reached out to wipe the tears for Zhilan, and sighed in a low voice: "What's the matter, just tell me, don't cry." ”
Zhilan's lips moved, but she couldn't say a word.
A few years ago, Gonggong Lu betrayed Emperor Jianwen for her.
During the reign of Emperor Jian'an, Gonggong Lu suffered a lot of crimes, a serious illness, and almost died.
After the new emperor ascended the throne, he didn't mind that Gonggong Lu was an old man of the Three Dynasties and still reused. Father-in-law Wei is also a kind and righteous person, and he has a lot of respect for Father-in-law Lu. In the past six months or so, Father-in-law Lu has regained his former glory.
With this opening of her mouth, she dragged Gonggong Lu back into the quagmire.
The young and promising Son of Heaven and the shrewd Empress worked together, one weakened the power of the Empress Dowager Yu in the previous dynasty, and the other fought with the Empress Dowager Yu in the palace. Under the advantages of this and the other, the declining trend of Empress Dowager Yu has become quite obvious.
Empress Dowager Yu was blinded and obsessed. No one dared to make this point clear in front of Empress Dowager Yu.
Knowing that there was a cliff ahead, how could she bear to push Father-in-law Lu forward?
Zhilan's shoulders shrugged slightly, and she wept silently.
What else could make Zhilan so embarrassed and painful?
Gonggong Lu sighed lightly again, continued to wipe her tears for Zhilan, and said in a low voice: "You don't have to say anything, I know what to do in the future." ”
Zhilan choked up: "It's me who can't stand you." ”
Father-in-law Lu held Zhilan's hand: "Between us, why do we need to say this. I'm a eunuch, I can be paired with you, and after so many years of good days when someone cares about someone and has someone to accompany me, it's worth it to close my eyes immediately. ”
Zhilan leaned her head into Grandpa Lu's chest, tears soaking Grandpa Lu's clothes.
As a slave and maid, she is just a pawn in the hands of her master. If the master wants to win the chess game, how can he take care of the chess pieces in his hand? When a chess piece goes to a dead end, throw it away and get one again.
As chess pieces, they can only struggle in the chess game.
……
After Gonggong Lu left from Zhilan, he returned to the Yiqing Palace.
There are more than 20 chamberlains on duty inside and outside the palace, and Gonggong Lu is the chief attendant and is in charge of these more than 20 chamberlains. And Gonggong Wei is a close attendant of the Son of Heaven, and he follows the Son of Heaven every day to listen to the dispatch.
Sheng Hong summoned a few cabinet elders to discuss the matter.
In the major affairs of the national dynasty, Gonggong Wei did not dare to listen and think more, and stood aside respectfully to serve. Sheng Hong is a generous and considerate master, and he does not restrain Father-in-law Wei, so he casually found an excuse to send Father-in-law Wei to retreat.
Father-in-law Wei, who had been standing for most of the day, finally had a little time to sit down, drink tea, and rest for a while.
The attendants are all lively and good at greeting, and as soon as Gonggong Wei sat down, several attendants immediately came forward to greet him.
Gonggong Wei was not yet thirty years old, and it was the time when he was young and vigorous. is also a confidant of the Son of Heaven, and his future is limitless. It's no wonder that everyone is vying to please.
Father-in-law Wei, who was proud of the spring breeze, saw Father-in-law Lu out of the corner of his eye, and immediately got up with a smile and shouted "Father-in-law Lu" respectfully.
The title of righteous father and righteous son, it doesn't hurt to shout it in private, but it is inconvenient to say it in front of people.
Gonggong Lu's city was very deep, his mood was agitated and complicated, his face was as usual, and he patted Gonggong Wei's shoulder with a smile: "You are on an errand by the emperor's side every day, and one stop is half a day." It's rare to have a break, so sit down quickly. ”
Gonggong Wei said with a smile: "Being an errand in the palace, standing for half a day is nothing. It was the emperor who was benevolent and sympathetic to the slaves, and specially allowed me to come out to rest. ”
Gonggong Wei was ordered by Emperor Jianwen to serve Sheng Hong at the beginning, and secretly undertook the task of surveillance. It was not until the death of Emperor Jianwen that Gonggong Wei ended his career of contradictions and entanglements, and completely recognized Sheng Hong, the master, who worked hard and was responsible.
No one expected that in the end, it was Sheng Hong who sat on the dragon chair. Father-in-law Wei also became a close attendant of the Son of Heaven, with unlimited scenery.
Speaking of the benevolence of the new emperor, Gonggong Lu also showed gratitude on his face: "The emperor treats us eunuchs very well. ”
This is good, not always rewarding or the like. Sheng Hong, who is the son of heaven, did not regard the servants around him as grass mustard. Since his accession to the throne, there have been cases of inmates who have made mistakes and been punished, but none of them have died.
Sheng Hong has never been angry for no reason, and he has never been angry with the people around him for anything.
The chamberlain is also a living person, flesh and blood, with feelings.
Serving a master like Sheng Hong, who would not do their best?
is like Father-in-law Lu, an old man who has served the Son of Heaven for three dynasties, and if he changes to another Son of Heaven, he will be jealous and willing to reuse it? Sheng Hong was not only reactivated, but also quite generous to Lu's father-in-law.
Thinking of these, Grandpa Lu's complicated mood is beyond words.
On one side is the generous Son of Heaven, and on the other side is the affectionate Zhilan...... He has made a painful choice, and he has a desolation from which he will never recover.
Father-in-law Lu and Father-in-law Wei chatted for a moment, and asked quietly: "...... Why did the emperor suddenly summon a few cabinet elders to discuss matters today? Could it be that something big happened in the DPRK and China? ”
Gonggong Wei is cautious by nature and has an extremely tight tone.
It's just that the father-in-law Lu in front of him is his father-in-law, and the two of them are now on errands by the side of the Son of Heaven, and Father-in-law Wei has no defense against Father-in-law Lu, and said with a casual smile: "It's for Enke's business." ”
Enkoto is the top priority at the moment.
The person who presided over Enke was the secretary of the Ministry of Rites and Xie Jun, the old man of Taishan of the Son of Heaven.
Gonggong Lu had the intention to ask, and deliberately laughed in a low voice: "Xie Shangshu is also a wonderful person. Some time ago, he was impeached by Liu Yushi, but he spit on himself, ignored it, and continued to preside over Enke. ”
"Isn't it?" Gonggong Wei lowered his voice and smiled: "If I changed someone else, I would have taken off my hat and returned home to reflect on myself." Fortunately, Xie Shangshu has a strong face and a tough backer, and he is not afraid of Liu Yushi at all. ”
Oh, yes! Looking at the important ministers in the court, no one's backer is as tough as Xie Shangshu!
One has a heart, the other has no intention, in the "small talk", Grandpa Wei revealed a lot of news.
Regardless of whether it is useful or not, Grandpa Lu secretly wrote it down.
……
Enko is slightly different from the triennial examination, which lasts for three days.
Five days after the completion of the examination, the results were released, and those who passed the examination were summoned to the Jinluan Hall to participate in the palace examination. Sheng Hong, the Son of Heaven, personally presided over the palace examination and pointed out the first-class champion list to explore the flowers. There are also dozens of second-class jinshi and third-class jinshi.
This is the so-called disciple of the Son of Heaven.
At that time, Lu Chi Ye Jingzhi and Zhao Qi ranked first and were cited as a good story.
This year's Enke also had beautiful talks.
The one who passed the first class was actually a fifteen-year-old boy.
This young man, surnamed Xie Yuanwei, is Empress Xie's cousin.
