Chapter Ninety-Three: Who Moved My Imperial Study?

Volume 1: The Empire of the Early Morning Chapter 93 Who Moved My Imperial Study?

Walking slowly to the bookshelf, His Majesty the Emperor lowered slightly, his slender fingers slowly slid over the neat books, and then stopped in the deepest part - this row of the bookshelf was a stele and a rare book from the old dynasty that the empire had recruited from the Heavenly Pavilion, he remembered very well that the last time he sorted out, the books were slightly oblique from left to right, but now the direction of the tilt is reversed, has anyone touched my bookshelf?

His brow furrowed slightly, his fingertips tapped lightly on the angular edges of the book, and then his knuckles tightened, lifting the entire layer of books in the other direction, and then he saw a piece of paper hidden deep in the shelf.

Taking out the ink paper and resting it on the bookcase, His Majesty the Emperor looked at the five characters dripping with ink on the bud paper, his brows furrowed more and more, and after looking at it in silence for a long time, he suddenly shouted and asked, "Who has touched my imperial study?"

A moment later, three eunuchs knelt down in the imperial study, and these three eunuchs involuntarily raised their heads and looked at the chubby Lord Shi Wei next to the bookcase, their eyes full of help. Xu Chongshan was in charge of all the guarding tasks around the imperial study, and the three eunuchs didn't know why His Majesty was angry, so they had to hope that he could stand up and speak.

Xu Chongshan took two steps closer to the emperor's majesty and asked softly: "Your Majesty, Weichen dares to guarantee that absolutely no one dares to enter the imperial study." ”

Li Zhongyi, the Son of Heaven, has always been lenient in governing the country, and these close ministers know his temper, and he doesn't have any fear of the king like a tiger when he is by his side every day, but it involves the imperial study, and Xu Chongshan does not dare to be careless.

The emperor slapped the book case heavily, looked coldly at the five big characters on the paper on the case, and asked in a cold voice: "No one dares to enter my imperial study, so where did these five words come from? Could it be that the ghost of the underworld wrote it!"

He frowned slightly, looking at the five words that seemed to be piercing into his heart, the more irritated he felt, and after a slight pause, he said, "It's this month's matter, you give me a good check!"

Xu Chongshan bowed respectfully, caught a glimpse of the five ink characters on the paper out of the corner of his eye, and was about to turn around and leave, when he suddenly thought of the bold young man at the beginning of the month, there was a buzzing explosion in his head, and his body suddenly became extremely stiff - the people in the palace were extremely well-behaved, and no one dared to enter the imperial study...... It seems like that's all there is!

"What's wrong? Did you remember something?" the Emperor looked coldly at his side face.

Xu Chongshan smiled slightly and said, "The minister is wondering, could it be that some of the companions in the palace wrote it in the school, and then it was mistakenly accepted into the imperial study, and the words ...... That's a pretty good word. ”

The Emperor glared at him in annoyance, and reprimanded: "Am I inviting you to appreciate the handwriting? Don't I know if the handwriting is good or not? What I want you to check is who is so bold as to dare to enter my imperial study and write with my pen!"

Xu Chongshan smiled awkwardly, exited the imperial study, and when he closed the door of the imperial study, slowly straightened his body, and walked out of the garden in the wind after the rain with a pleasant temperature, he realized that his back had become clammy and cold.

After a while, the deputy commander of Ouchi Shiwei appeared under the cold eaves of a certain side hall, he stared coldly at the pale-faced eunuch, gritted his teeth and said in a cold voice: "You are also my secret guard, at that time I asked you to take people to the duty room behind the imperial study, how dare you put him outside the imperial study and leave?"

The eunuch raised his head and said in a trembling voice: "My lord, you ordered your subordinates to empty the perimeter of the imperial study at that time, in this case, it will be a little conspicuous for me to stay there, besides, how do I know that the person surnamed Ning is so bold, even if he knows that it is the imperial study, he dares to break in." ”

"What's the use of talking about that now? that idiot has already broken in!"

Xu Chongshan glared at him angrily and said: "Your Majesty wants to investigate this matter now, look at Your Majesty's expression, if you catch that guy, you will have to beat him with more than a dozen boards, so you have to remember for me, that idiot has never entered the palace, let alone been to the imperial study, do you hear?"

The eunuch said with a sad face: "My lord, isn't it over for us to offer him? His Majesty beating him with more than a dozen boards is also a punishment, and we don't need to bear this burden for him." ”

Xu Chongshan said hatefully: "Idiot! That idiot is now my subordinate! If you want your majesty to find out that the secret guard has recruited such an idiot, I must not be laughed to death?

"That's the relationship between the uncle, Your Majesty always has to read some affection......," the eunuch reminded timidly.

Xu Chongshan brushed his sleeves away and shouted, "Damn, is it because of Chaoshu that I have to carry the black pot for that idiot?"

......

......

Just when Xu Chongshan and the eunuch were about to cover up this matter, the Tang Emperor Li Zhongyi was staring at the painting in the imperial study, when suddenly he walked to the bookshelf and took out a spoon-loaded box, and took out a character from the manuscripts that he wrote with his own hands and rarely showed people, and placed it next to the word.

The previous word was written by the emperor on the night of the Fengting incident, ready to be given to Chaoshu, to reward and comfort him for all these years of sorrow in the black city, in order to persuade him to serve the court in the future, but I didn't expect this character to be written, but there was no chance to give it, Chaoshu left Chang'an City after a conversation with him.

"The fish jumps into the sea at this time...... Isn't that right?"

His Majesty the Emperor frowned and looked at the two characters side by side, his eyes moved to the other one, and muttered: "Open the other side of the sky?

The anger of the Son of Heaven came from someone daring to touch the imperial study, and from the five dripping ink characters that pierced the feelings that he had been deliberately not thinking about, but at this time, after the feelings gradually calmed down, he frowned and looked at the five words of the other side of the sky, thinking about the dispute between that day and Chaoshu, but gradually tasted some side meanings.

"Yu Yue At this time, the sea is my sea after all, and opening the other side of the sky is the real free sky, since I have been trapped in that house for more than ten years, letting him go is just to repay the debt, why not give others freedom is also give yourself freedom?"

The emperor's brows gradually relaxed, thinking of the amazement when he looked at the wet trees in the morning, thinking of the friend who was very far away in status but extremely close in heart, at this time, perhaps in a green shirt fluttering among a mountain road heavy with wet trees, as if he felt that he was also far away from Chang'an City, and his body and mind were comfortable and free.

However, after all, he is the son of the Tang Dynasty, although he has figured it out, he is still a little angry, looking at the words and angrily reprimanding: "Even if what you say is right, I can't spare you! I must find out who wrote his mother's words, and I dare to be sarcastic...... Belch...... So well written!"

The heart of the tangled to see through to see through, the mood is naturally completely different from before, the emperor Xi à at this time really took a serious look at the word, the previous glance, he just felt that the five words in the framework is peaceful, the law is strict and quite good, at this time take a closer look, only to open the other side of the day these five words are actually slender and even, the bone strength is strong and hidden in the full drag ink, not prominent, clear and strong but soft and dusty, the end is the supreme wonder!

"This ...... What a good word! The pen is square and round, the body is broad, the posture is charming and the bones are proud, smart and elegant, and the wind and bones are ...... Who wrote it? It's much better than me!"

His Majesty the Emperor's eyes narrowed, his eyebrows raised, his fingers trembled slightly, and he couldn't help but feel happy and couldn't help himself, he knew that his evaluation of these five words was not fair, and these ink words on the paper were not only much stronger than what he wrote, even if they were not inferior to those famous posts hanging on the wall, and even the spiritual satiety was even better.

Just as Ning Que sighed in the imperial study that day, the Tang Dynasty Emperor's own handwriting is not good, but the level of appreciation is really high, he is more and more fascinated, and he actually saw the feeling that Ning Que endured to the extreme itch when he wrote these five words that day, he felt that these five words seemed to be like a hazy branch that opened on the other side of the sea and could not be reached, gently brushing his back from top to bottom, brushing away the depression and unhappiness of these days.

"What a word!"

His Majesty the Emperor only felt that his arms were open, and his mood regained his tranquility and peace, and he smiled at the five ink characters on the paper, and did not hesitate to express his most sincere appreciation.

Suddenly, he raised his eyebrows, slapped the bookcase, and shouted, "Someone!"

After another moment, the three eunuchs knelt on the ground of the imperial study again, and turned their eyes for help to Xu Chongshan, the deputy commander of Shi Wei, Xu Chongshan forcibly suppressed the uneasiness in his heart, and leaned over with a shy face to ask for instructions: "Your Majesty, my subordinates are arranging for Shi Wei to investigate secretly, but it's just ...... There has been no news for a while. ”

As one of the close ministers who knew His Majesty the emperor best, he knew that the emperor was not a person who held grudges harshly, not to mention such a thing as writing in the imperial study, even if those more ridiculous things in the palace were more out of line, as long as they did not affect the national program of government, as long as the time passed, they would not be pursued. He originally planned to drag this matter on for a few days and then months until he finally became indifferent, but he didn't expect that the emperor would be a big rebel today, and he put pressure on him repeatedly.

The emperor didn't even look at him, he looked at the scroll on the bookcase with great intoxication, stroked the long beard under his chin, and ordered: "Find out who wrote this word, but remember not to surprise this calligrapher, and treat him with courtesy, well, after finding it...... Please come to the palace on behalf of me, and I will ask him for advice. ”

"Huh?" Xu Chongshan raised his head in shock.

After another moment, the deputy commander of Ouchi Shiwei, whose official uniform was wet and dry, reappeared under the cold eaves of a certain side hall, and he looked at the eunuch with a wonderful expression in embarrassment, and said in embarrassment: "Yes, this is the situation in the imperial study, and now it seems that that idiot is going to be a blessing in disguise." ”

The eunuch patted his chest in fear, and said with a sweet smile: "My lord, this is a good opportunity, if we secretly produce a scholar who His Majesty appreciates, the adult's face must also be extremely bright." ”

"There is no chance, no brilliance, at least for now. Xu Chongshan looked at his loyal subordinates with a smile, and said, "You have to remember that idiot, no, it's Ning Que who really hasn't entered the palace." ”

The eunuch looked at him in surprise and asked, "My lord, why is this?"

Xu Chongshan laughed like crying, his voice squeezed out from between his teeth, and said, "Because ...... We didn't admit it before, but if we recognize it now, that is...... Bully. ”

The eunuch instantly figured out the problem in the middle, cried and mourned as if he was laughing, rubbed his fists and said in distress: "Look at this, how can a good thing become a bad thing." ”

Xu Chongshan thought to himself, what are you crying here, Lao Tzu stubbornly played an excellent opportunity to pat His Majesty's ass into a big crime suspected of bullying the king, and it is really worth crying!

As soon as he thought of this, he couldn't help but regret it to the extreme, if he had come forward to carry this black pot for Ning Que at the beginning, why would he be in such a dilemma now, looking at a treasure mountain but not daring to move the hoe; The eunuch's eyes rolled, and he looked at him and came up with an idea: "Otherwise, if your Excellency goes back to His Majesty at this time, you will say that you didn't think of Ning Que before, but after checking it out, you will remember." ”

"Idiot!"

Xu Chongshan's feelings were already extremely bad, and he reprimanded bitterly: "I can't think of it when I started to punish the crime, but I remembered it when I wanted to reward him at this time, His Majesty treats us leniently, it doesn't mean that His Majesty is that! It doesn't matter if you hide some unimportant things from Your Majesty, but if Your Majesty thinks that the courtiers really treat him as that, you will know that in front of Your Majesty, we are the one!"

He forcibly suppressed the annoyance in his heart, and said in a deep voice: "I can't admit the crime of bullying the king, since I didn't admit it at the beginning, I can't admit it until I die." ”

The eunuch raised his head and looked at him innocently and said, "In case Ning Que is found, we can't recognize it if we want to." ”

Xu Chongshan was silent for a moment and said: "Time, only time is the only criterion for testing the truth, this is the only thing that idiot said that is not an idiot, and only time is the only way to reduce the guilt." ”

......

......

The warm wind blew on the lawn, through the trees, into the alley, and then along the gap between the window and the pink wall of the study room into the room, blowing on the faces of the young students, warm and lazy, it was a good time to be sleepy, but the students of the Bingshe were full of sleepiness, but also a little suspicious, because a certain bookcase was empty.

The third bell rang, and the students left the study house in twos and threes, or went back to Chang'an City, or went to the stove hall to grab the freshest first yu rice b, or dragged the scholars to step on the stone path next to the wetland to the old study building.

When I arrived at the old library, there was still no figure of that guy, and I asked the teacher to know that the guy didn't secretly go straight to the second floor, and the suspicion in everyone's eyes was even heavier, Situ Yilan and Jin Wucai couldn't help but discuss with the classmates next to them, Zhong Dajun was frowning and standing by the bookshelf thoughtfully, accustomed to seeing that guy go upstairs with a pale face every day, and suddenly couldn't see that picture today, everyone felt a little surprised.

By the east window on the second floor of the old book building, a female professor wearing a light-colored college robe slowly put down the show pen in her hand, calmly raised her head, looked in the direction of the staircase, and waited for a while, but no one came up, and her brows couldn't help frowning slightly. She didn't approve of the student not caring for his body and forcibly going upstairs to study, but after watching coldly for so many days, after all, she still had a little more appreciation for the student, and now the student did not come, she guessed that she should probably give up, and she couldn't help but feel a faint regret in her heart, but unfortunately he couldn't stick to it.
