171 The imperial capital city is cold and frozen
Driving, driving, driving---- shouting one after another, mixed with the sound of horses' hooves of "da, da". With the wind blowing, it drifted into the ears of the two brocade guards guarding the gate of the palace from far and near!
Suddenly, the big iron door behind them was pushed open with a "boom". Some of the civil and military ministers walked out in unison with Emperor Yongxi, and looked intently at the end of the west end of the street, where the sound came from. The big guy threw out the guess in his heart in unison: Listening to this voice, they should all be almost there, right?
I don't know when a wide stage was set up in the palace, and the drummers, dancers, and actors in the palace all stood on it. The "Welcome Waltz" full of festive charm was performed with emotion!
The scene in front of them stimulated the two brocade guards and couldn't help but put their heads together and whispered: Early in the morning, the emperor even braved the cold and plundered out of the palace to greet him. The most important point is that this man has not yet arrived. The stage was set up in the palace, and the drummers and dancers were arranged to start the fun! This special way of greeting has never been done before. Tsk, this visitor. Which neighboring country sent the emissary?
Before the two of them could figure it out, a presumptuous laughter suddenly exploded in the air around them: Haha----, the place outside the imperial capital is covered with snow. Only there is no snow at the entrance of the palace, the emperor is proving his sincerity to the two of us! Ha ha----
Immediately, another equally presumptuous voice picked up the conversation: Haha----, I can hear that the palace is still playing drums at this moment. Haha---- don't look at your brother-in-law as the son of heaven today. He also understands that he can't do without the assistance of the two of us! Ha ha----
Hearing this, the drummers and the graceful dancers became even more energetic. Hey, after all, I pleased the two Hua generals who returned to Beijing. Only then can they receive the reward from the emperor! Who can not perform as best they can?
The two brocade guards couldn't help but glance at each other, and then patted their heads and exclaimed: Hey, this kind of wild laughter is too much like the voices of the two uncles, General Hua. Early in the morning, the chief eunuch Li Gonggong ordered the little eunuchs to come out to clear the snow. It turned out that it was all to welcome them back to Beijing!
Speaking of this, two red and one red horses stopped on the gravel street in front of the palace with a snort. Their owners jumped down from their horses one after another, then lifted the hem of their official uniforms and knelt down three times and shouted: Long live the emperor, long live----
Before they could finish speaking, Emperor Yongxi shouted with a smile on his face: The three Aiqing must have been quite tired from the long journey. Please be flat!
As soon as the words slipped out, he picked up the two Hua generals and the civilian official Wang Botao in turn and said gently: Early in the morning, the two auxiliary lords notified me after receiving a secret letter from Lord Wang. In order to prevent unnecessary troubles caused by the people in the border areas, I only brought these "loyal and patriotic" ministers of civil and military affairs to greet you!
As soon as Emperor Yongxi's words landed, the civil and military ministers headed by "Liang Shangshu and Prime Minister Yu". As if making an appointment, he bent over and bowed deeply to the three colleagues opposite, and said: "Two uncles and Lord Wang, we are polite!"
Seeing this, the two generals Hua and Wang Botao waved their hands together and said: Colleagues, there is no need to be polite if we have worked together for many years. Let's go in together to talk about parting feelings and talk about homeliness!
Liang Shangshu stomped his feet lightly, pretended to sigh and said: "Hey, when I got up today, I saw that it was cold outside, so I put on cotton leather boots. At this moment, the legs below the knees to the top of the feet are still freezing and painful!
Emperor Yongxi took the arms of the two Hua generals in understanding, and said with a smile while walking into the palace: These civil and military ministers have been standing here with me for a long time, and now that you have all returned safely. Then let's go to the "Imperial Dining Room" now to have a big dinner to warm up, and then watch a good show that "gathers Yue Opera, Peking Opera, and Huangmei Opera"!
At this time, the eyes of the two generals scanned the crowd and said in surprise: Your Majesty, when we returned to Beijing before. Our sister and her children ran out to greet her! At this moment, why are they missing?
Emperor Yongxi sighed and said, "Hey, the two brothers don't know anything. Your two queen sisters may have reached "menopause", and they have often fallen into a deep sleep lately and can't wake up. I can only send her to the "Imperial Infirmary" for treatment! Because I always remembered her previous instructions, I asked the two military attachés to take her two emperors out of the palace to visit the sufferings of the common people and increase their rich experience. If I die in the future, I hope Chongxi can also have enough experience to assist Chongxi in ascending the throne and ruling the world!
The two Hua generals shook his hand together as if they had made an appointment, and cautiously said polite words: Long live my emperor, long live it, Hugh has to curse himself indiscriminately. However, thank you for looking up to our sister and her two royal sons. In the future, in order to consolidate the world of our dynasty, we will always be "national peace and security". Even if we "go to the sword mountain and go down to the sea of fire", we will definitely not give up!
Emperor Yongxi said with a smile: Two brothers, "birth, old age, sickness and death" is an eternal law in the world. No one can escape! I can see this, as long as the two East Palace Emperors learn to accept public opinion and win the hearts of the people among the people. Naturally, I will be supported by the people and cared for by the Minister of Justice, and I will be able to retreat into the background at that time!
The ministers of justice, led by "Liang Shangshu and Yu Chengxiang", were also busy helping: the two princes of the Eastern Palace had experienced the sufferings of the common people in various places, and in the future, they would definitely urge each other to love the people and the Chinese military ministers of the DPRK. With the assistance of the emperor and the two Hua generals, our dynasty will definitely be "prosperous and brilliant" for generations!
While speaking, the group came to the stage set up in the middle palace. Emperor Yongxi turned to the drummers, dancers, and actors, pointed to the "imperial dining room" and said gently: "Everyone, listen, I am now going to dine with all the ministers. Please go there and wait for the fun!
Hearing this, the drummers, dancers, and actors all stepped off the stage. A swarm of bees poured into the "Imperial Dining Room"!
Seeing this, all the officials will definitely shout indignantly: My God, in order to "bring the two Hua generals to justice". These innocent people have to be "funeral ghosts" for them, it's really pitiful! Liang Shangshu and Prime Minister Yu thought it was a plan of "clever plan", but they wanted to bring these innocent people. How can he be called a minister of justice? How could Emperor Yongxi, who kept saying that he "loved the people", adopt such a "bad idea"?
Here, it is necessary for the author to give a thorough explanation to all the officials: after listening to Liang Shangshu and Prime Minister Yu Cheng say the "trick", Emperor Yongxi conveyed an edict to the four "guards with knives in front of the emperor": When you take people to set up hidden device switches in the "imperial dining room", you must order the drummers, dancers, and actors who must appear there to stand outside and see clearly. Under the floor tiles of which colors and shapes, there are switches for poison darts and poison arrows!
Thinking that they could still eat breakfast, watch the opera and sing and the graceful dancers dance, the two Hua generals said with great interest: Haha, the emperor can be described as "digging out his heart and lungs" for the two of us. We are really flattered!
Emperor Yongxi "struck while the iron was hot" and said: The two brothers have been stationed on the border for many years, and there is not a single woman in the army. I know that you two are usually "pure-hearted and have few desires", and you are extremely lonely! Today, as long as you two will take a look at which beauties you will fall in love with later. I will definitely decree to give you two a wonderful and sweet new rouge!
Hearing this, the two generals couldn't help but glance at each other. Although silent, it is better than "a thousand words"!
At this moment, only the two of them know what they are thinking: it is obvious what the two officials of Weifu who visited the border privately six years ago played. The emperor didn't adopt it! Otherwise, the consequences can be unimaginable. Haha, we assisted my sister to become the current queen. What a "smart move"!
Thinking of this, the hearts of the two generals couldn't help but bloom with joy. The two of them couldn't wait to walk towards the "imperial dining room" step by step, and suddenly waved their arms and flew up!
At this moment, the two of them are thinking about the wonderful enjoyment of beautiful women in their arms. I wouldn't have thought that the place where there was a burst of delicious food in front of me had long been buried with switches that could trigger poison arrows and poison darts. Waiting for their "great arrival"!
How could the two Hua generals who were in a mood understand: Emperor Yongxi, Liang Shangshu, Prime Minister Yu, and the hearts of those ministers of justice behind him. What are they waiting for to wave their arms and fly into the "Heaven and Earth Net"?
A moment later, they landed at the door of the "Imperial Dining Room". Just look: on several large round tables inside, there are already ten bowls and eight dishes of delicious meat and vegetable dishes. The drummers, the actors, and the graceful dancers all sat on the stage on the east wall and talked and laughed.
The two Hua generals, who have always liked to "mess with flowers and grass", were immediately crispy and itchy, and they were extremely uncomfortable. I couldn't wait for the people behind me to go in together, so I strode hand in hand to the stage by the east wall!
The reason why I didn't take the flying position to go in was just to make a good impression on the graceful dancers at first sight. The most important point is that I don't want my rude behavior to scare them!
However, then there was a sudden explosion with a sound of "pop, pop". Poisonous arrows and poisonous darts flew out from all directions, stabbing into every inch of their bodies with full force!
The signs of such a "surprise attack" should be left on the border in normal times. The two suspicious generals of China will definitely not fall into the situation of being stabbed!
However, today, because Emperor Yongxi is "pouring soup" in accordance with the plan of Liang Shangshu and Prime Minister Yu. Their hearts immediately relaxed! When I ran to the door of the "Imperial Dining Room", I saw those drummers, actors, and graceful dancers entering the "Imperial Dining Room". They all sat on the stage safely, waiting to entertain the Yongxi Emperor and the civil and military ministers who came here to dine!
The two generals are not immortals with great powers, so it is impossible for them to become a mosquito and fly to drill into someone's abdominal cavity to "find out". Of course, it is impossible to predict that the surface of the "calm waves" will cover up a conspiracy against them!
Next, they felt the venom gradually seep into their muscles. In desperation, they are busy resisting its continued invasion!
However, what the two Hua generals did not expect was that at this juncture, eight "guards with swords in front of the emperor" flew in from the four windows that had been opened long ago. Let's smash it at yourself with all your might!
At this moment, the two of them are full of poisonous arrows and poisonous darts all over their bodies. Anyone who practices martial arts knows that whenever they encounter such a situation, they must not use enough strength to perform evil arts to resist the enemy!
But in the face of the siege of the eight "guards with swords in front of the emperor", the latent consciousness of the two Hua generals was extremely unwilling to "sit and wait to die". Therefore, they are still fighting!
As they fought back, they felt the venom seep deeper and deeper. Suddenly, the two of them howled like "Zhenshan Tigers". Some poisonous arrows and poisonous darts flew out and forced the eight "guards with knives in front of the palace" around them!
Seeing this, the eight "guards with knives in front of the emperor" let out a long roar as if they had made an appointment. Work together to re-attack the poisoned arrows and poisoned darts at the two Chinese generals!
The venom that invaded the muscles on the body had gradually spread in all directions. The power of the external blow will not be weakened in the slightest, and it is impossible to reproduce even the opportunity to perform evil magic!
The two Hua generals seemed to feel the footsteps of the Grim Reaper, and they were getting closer and closer. Rao is always "cautious", and they can't help but be tired of coping with it!
Suddenly, they stepped on several floor tiles together. With a "sparse uproar" sound, the two brothers fell into a huge black hole one after another!
This was followed by two screams of "oops, viper". It got into the ears of the people standing outside the door of the "imperial dining room", and Emperor Yongxi turned around and took the hands of Liang Shangshu and Prime Minister Yu and couldn't help but say happily: Two Aiqing, rely on the resourcefulness of the two of you. I'm so grateful that I finally got rid of the two giant moths that I was looking at!
Liang Shangshu and Prime Minister Yu hurriedly said: The emperor's words have tormented the old ministers, and today's affairs can be "a complete victory". It's not the strength of the two of us, it's the result of the efforts of everyone. If you want to talk about merit, the big guy has it!
Emperor Yongxi gave them a thumbs up, nodded and said: "Two Aiqing, you two are very right. I will be "knighted" by the morning tomorrow!
As soon as his words landed, all the civil and military ministers present immediately bowed down to their common master and shouted: The emperor's grace is mighty, and the blessings are all in the sky. Long live my emperor, long live it!
Emperor Yongxi hurriedly stretched out his hands and said politely: "Ladies and gentlemen, I have been working hard with me for several days in a row. Please go back to your home and rest!
Hearing this, all the ministers of civil and military affairs stood up one after another, bowed with both hands, and said: Thank you, Lord Longen, and the ministers will take their leave. The emperor will also go back to the palace to rest early!
As they spoke, they all turned away in amusement. Come to the gate of the palace and get into your official sedan chair to go home!
Looking at the backs of these loyal ministers, a loud voice rose leisurely in the bottom of Emperor Yongxi's heart and shouted: Wang Shuyun, my wife of the dregs. For more than ten years, because I was afraid of the evil magic of the two Chinese generals. I have no choice but to send you into the cold palace! Today, the wicked are gone. I can finally tell the world to restore your title!
Thinking of this, he couldn't wait to walk towards the "Summer Palace". He needs to share the good news with his loved ones quickly!
