Chapter Ninety-One: The History of the Assassination
You can see that Hou Lan is dealing with copywriting, and there are several eunuchs kneeling in front of him.
"Mrs. Yu, Sun Ming brought it." The little eunuch who led the way knelt at the door to report, Hou Lan looked up, raised his left hand and hooked it, signaling Sun Ming to come in.
Sun Ming lowered his head, walked in cautiously, lowered his posture, came to Hou Lan and bowed, "Sun Ming greets Father." ”
Several eunuchs beside Hou Lan also turned sideways, and they also wanted to see more of this promising general.
Hou Lan's movements in his hands did not stop, and he glanced at Sun Ming, "Junyi, you sit down first, and when our family takes care of this matter, we will go to see Your Majesty." ”
After Sun Ming responded, he found the last seat and sat down, the office of the first minister of the Han Dynasty was unexpectedly simple, without a trace of decoration, only a picture of the four big characters written by Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty on the wall, 'Optimus of the Country'.
One by one, the eunuchs withdrew after receiving the orders, and it was not until the last one also withdrew that Hou Lan put down his pen and rubbed his temples.
His daily workload is huge, and this is a special time, which is extremely busy.
Then he got up and came to Sun Ming, "Let's go to the North Palace Deyang Hall to see Your Majesty first, and then go to Changle Palace to find Your Highness after we are done, Your Highness has been talking about you a lot these days, since you have entered the palace, let's go and meet you together." ”
After walking out of the room, Sun Ming also cooperated with him, because Hou Ran led the way, and saw many guards along the way, but none of them dared to go up to block the road.
Deyang Hall is a daily rest place of Emperor Han Ling, there is a hall and three rooms, there is a garden behind the palace, there is a huge pavilion in the garden, Emperor Han Ling is here to enjoy the shade.
Hou Lan and the two came to Emperor Han Ling, and the two knelt down at the same time and said, "Minister, Sun Ming, please see Your Majesty." "The courtiers pay their respects to Your Majesty."
Emperor Han Ling, who was closing his eyes and enjoying the coolness, moved his fat body and sat up, "Get up, get up, how many times have you told Ah Lan, you don't have to bow down every time." ”
After the two got up, they knelt on the couch opposite Emperor Han Ling, and the palace maids were ready, and they sat down one by one, and the wine, meat, and fruit were each served.
When Hou Lan faced Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty, his flattering expression was also revealed: "Your Majesty is the son of heaven, and it is normal for a minister to kneel to the sky and kneel to His Majesty, but if he does not kneel, the minister will be terrified." ”
Hou Lan raised Emperor Han Ling's personal height to the level of 'heaven' with a word, which also made Emperor Han Ling very useful, and he said happily, "Come, this is the new tribute peach, the first batch this year, try it." ”
Hou Lan was flattered and picked one up from his desk, and took a bite of it, and the expression on his face instantly felt like eating dates, "Your Majesty, this year's peaches are very watery, which indicates that the world is peaceful, which is a good sign." ”
Sun Ming couldn't pat himself like Hou Lanru breathing, and he was not qualified to talk, so he could only pick up a peach and eat it.
Emperor Han Ling also noticed Sun Ming's restraint, he raised his wine glass and said to Sun Ming, "General Sun Ming tried his best to save Xie'er, I am very pleased, this glass of wine is for you as a father, come to drink together." ”
Sun Ming hurriedly put down the peaches and raised his glass, "It is the duty of a minister to protect the safety of His Highness." ”
Sun Ming didn't expect that he would be so flustered when he faced Emperor Han Ling, and his heart couldn't stop trembling, and he forgot all the words he had thought of in his heart.
After that, when Emperor Han Ling made a move first, Sun Ming drank the wine and then sat there in danger.
Emperor Han Ling did not blame Sun Ming for such a wooden reaction, in fact, Sun Ming's psychological tolerance was already very strong, and there were once foreigners who went to Beijing to face the saint, but died suddenly on the spot due to too much nervousness.
"How old is General Sun Ming this year? You're not very old. "Emperor Han Ling also has a good impression of Sun Ming, of course, mainly because of the relationship between attribute points.
"Chen Sun Ming is nineteen this year, and he should be a weak crown in half a year."
Those who can speak in front of Emperor Han Ling and claim to be without a name are only a few close eunuchs, such as Hou Lan and Jian Shuo, and others including Sun Ming, who will definitely use their full names when claiming themselves.
"Good! I appreciate you very much, and I hope you can follow the example of the ancient Guan Zhong and Le Yi, add strength to my Han, assist Xie'er in governing the government, and enrich the country and strengthen the army. ”
"I know that Ah Lan is one step ahead and will marry you from the daughter, or I will marry the lord of Wanping to you, hahaha."
"Now I give you a choice, if you choose the county lord of Wanping, I will cancel your marriage with Hou Yu, Ah Lan here, you don't have to worry, how about it?"
This is a trap, a thankless thing, and Sun Ming naturally won't step on it.
Sun Ming took two steps back, knelt down and bowed, "As a Han minister, the minister will contribute to the country, and he will do his best to die." ”
"Thank you for Your Majesty's kindness, but Sun Ming fell in love with Hou Yu at first sight and has made a lifelong commitment."
Emperor Han Ling nodded with satisfaction, and then said, "Not only is he capable militarily, but he is also affectionate and righteous in private, I appreciate you very much, Ah Lan, you have found a good son-in-law." ”
Hou Lan also accosted at this moment: "Your Majesty, what you said is right, there are not many aspiring young people like Sun Ming, otherwise how could His Highness be clamoring to see him all day long." ”
Speaking of Liu Xie, Emperor Han Ling also showed a loving smile, "It may be that you saved Xie'er last time, and he was talking all day long about wanting to see you, and then remember to go to Changle Palace to find Xie'er, he told me before." ”
"His Royal Highness's favor is Sun Ming's honor, and the minister will definitely live up to the trust of His Majesty and His Highness."
Emperor Han Ling was very satisfied with this young man, "Ah Lan, take out the edict." ”
When Hou Lan heard this, he glanced at the little eunuch outside the pavilion, and after a while, the little eunuch took the edict with both hands, and Hou Lan took the edict and came to Emperor Han Ling.
After receiving the signal, Hou Lan opened the edict and read it: "Sun Ming, the thief general, is temperate, straightforward, and commendable." ”
"Ming has made many meritorious contributions, Kuang helped the Han family, and his people were brave enough to surpass Nie Zheng and attack Jiezi, which is especially praised."
"Feng Sun Ming is the Marquis of Changqi Township, leading the history of Youzhou Thorn, eating thousands of households, giving thousands of silver and thousands of horses, in order to praise loyalty."
The township marquis has a serious fief, and his title can also be passed on to his son, and the importance of the history of Youzhou is needless to say, now that he has an official position, everything in Youzhou is Sun Ming's final say.
For example, the recall is the appointment of the county order level, and there is no need to even consult the imperial court.
Sun Ming was overjoyed and bowed his head again.
Later, due to drinking too much, Emperor Han Ling was a little tired, Hou Lan and Sun Ming retired, and the two of them came all the way to the entrance of Changle Palace, because this is the place where Empress Dowager Dong lives, and Sun Ming is not qualified to enter.
