Volume 2 The Puppet Son of Heaven Chapter 57 The Puppet Son of Heaven (I)
When the father and son of the Guo family were running around all night for various reasons, Sun Ning was full of food and drink in the palace and slept well all night.
The banquet that was originally prepared to be for him, the emperor, was also cheapened by him and a cadre in the palace, and even the soldiers and horses of Liangzhou who were guarding outside were also divided into a lot of food and drink, so that they could be grateful for a while.
As for the living environment of the harem here, it is also quite good, pavilions, small bridges and flowing water, and all kinds of flowers and trees that temporarily wither due to winter are also everywhere.
The dormitory arranged for him is extremely luxurious, the beds and tables are almost made of high-quality sandalwood, and many antiques, calligraphy and paintings are also prepared, which can be called a real rich and noble residence.
If you put aside the house arrest situation you face, to be honest, such a day is quite pleasant.
At least falling asleep on such a spacious and soft bed was much more comfortable than spending the night in the carriage before, and when he woke up, the discomfort of Sun Ning's tiring days of driving and riding had completely disappeared.
After sticking the two front and back on his body, and the girl who was sleeping and unconscious moved away, Sun Ning got out of bed and relaxed his muscles slightly, and then he greeted: "Wei Shen." ”
Just as expected, the personal eunuch on call quickly pushed the door in: "What does the master command?" The breakfast slave has already been arranged, so this will be delivered? ”
"Well, let's send it here. By the way, Yang Xuan, can they come to the palace to see me? ”
The Yang Xuan he mentioned was the Yulin Weizhong who was ordered to follow all the way and protect the emperor.
This Yang Xuan can't compare with Yan Hu and the others in terms of ability and brain, and he can't be independent, but he is loyal enough, so Sun Ning stayed by his side and used it as a guard commander.
Wei Shen replied with a bitter face: "Master, they still don't let people in." Not only did they not let Yang Xuan and them in, but the slaves couldn't go out if they wanted to. It's really damning, we gave them food yesterday. ”
said, and took the initiative to say: "If you don't negotiate with the people outside, you can't let them come like this!" ”
"That's it, they are just acting on orders, and they have no regard for their own status."
Sun Ning smiled, waved his hand and said, "And I believe that it won't be long before Yang Xuan and them can still enter the palace." That Guo Yan is not so stupid that he can't even tolerate a hundred or so people here. ”
"The slave and the maid understood, and the slave and the maid were just angry with the master. If we knew there was such an attitude, we shouldn't have come.
"Not to mention the fact that the master was tired all the way, there was such a thing as soon as I entered the city. The slave and maid were frightened at that time, for fear that the master would be really hurt by those traitors. It's still ......."
Hearing that he was going to talk for a while, Sun Ning could only interrupt: "Okay, let's go and bring me breakfast first." Maybe someone will come to the door in a while, and I don't want to go hungry and have to deal with them. ”
"Yes, slave and maid will go." Wei Shen agreed, and hurried to make arrangements.
After breakfast, Sun Ning moved his body in the courtyard again, and was about to go ahead and walk around at will, when a maid came.
At the hanging flower door in front of the dormitory, Fang stopped and saluted: "Your Majesty, Young Master Guo is asking to see you outside." ”
"Oh?" Sun Ning was a little surprised, but he didn't expect that the first person to come to see him today was Guo Chong.
I didn't hesitate at the moment, I agreed, and he led the way and went straight out.
Of course, this meeting with Guo Chong was not yesterday's main hall, but in a small pavilion on the side, there were already three stoves in it, but it was as warm as spring.
Sun Ning sat down, and Guo Chong had already been brought in.
He looked listless, with two dark circles on his face, his body was still a little trembling, and his saluting movements were a little stiff: "Minister Guo Chong see Your Majesty." ”
"Don't be formal, just sit down and talk." Sun Ning smiled, "Why did you come to see me early in the morning?" Didn't I mention that I went out for many days this time, and when I came back, I had to go to the Ruyi Building to live happily for a few days? ”
"Ahem, don't mention it." Guo Chong smiled bitterly, in front of Sun Ning, he really didn't have much restraint, and said directly in his heart, "I was still asleep this morning, and my father asked someone to call me over, and then told me that all the palace guards would be handed over to me." ”
Seeing his helpless look, Sun Ning also smiled: "It's not good to have an errand, look at the complaint on your face." ”
"Your Majesty, don't you know, where have you done any serious errands over the years, so I went to Nanyang this time and took you over.
"Then my father said that I had a good relationship with Your Majesty, so he asked me to be closer to Your Majesty, and simply handed over the defense here to the minister."
As he spoke, he sighed again, obviously wishing that he was just a man who ate and drank merry, and that he didn't have any burden on him.
Sun Ning didn't have much to say about this arrangement, so he could only say: "Since it is Guo Taishou's intention, it must not be wrong." In fact, it's good that you can come to the palace at any time to talk to me. By the way, what's the matter with you coming to see me in a hurry now? ”
"Oh, the minister came to see Your Majesty early, one is to explain the minister's current position to His Majesty, and if Your Majesty has any requirements in the future, just give orders. The second is, to ask for my father, when my brother is tortured, I wonder if Your Majesty wants to take a look? ”
It is also Sun Ning's intention to let Guo Han suffer a hundred military sticks, so he wants to be punished at this time, Guo Yan wants to ask him to go over and watch, which can be regarded as an explanation.
Sun Ning shook his head: "This is not necessary." Now that Guo Taishou has passed the word, I can naturally trust him. And now that I think about it, in fact, Guo Hanna also did his best, and let him suffer this hundred military sticks and wronged him, so I won't watch it.
"In this way, when you go back later, I will express my apologies to Guo Taishou and Guo Han, I was also in a hurry yesterday, so I will not choose to speak."
"Your Majesty is serious, my younger brother did a bad errand, and he should also be taught a lesson."
After the two exchanged pleasantries again, Guo Chong got up to say goodbye.
However, looking at the friction when he went out, and the painful look on his face, Sun Ning was amused again. Obviously, this person really doesn't want to suffer hardship.
It's just that after the door was closed again, Sun Ning's smile quickly disappeared again, and he whispered softly: "Guo Chong, are you really that simple?" ”
He had a faint feeling that everything that this Guo Dashao was revealing now was hidden in a mystery.
Maybe on the surface, he is really out of tune as his words and deeds, but Sun Ning can still feel the different temperament under his absurd and lazy appearance.
After Guo Chong went, Sun Ning became idle here again, and no other officials came for the rest of the day, as if he, the emperor, had only been in Liangzhou for one day, and had been forgotten by all his subordinates.
