Chapter Forty-Nine: Uncle Ming
In the afternoon, there was a shocking gossip in Fengtian City.
It is rumored that all the ministers of the court were absent this morning, and even the eunuchs and palace maids who served the emperor's living room slept lazily, and the poor emperor got up early in the morning without anyone to serve and dress, and no one came to bring breakfast.
One can imagine how angry the emperor sitting on the dragon chair was.
I heard that it wasn't until the time of the morning that the first auxiliary fish Jingyang was late.
A belly hungry and so on into a belly of anger, got the first assistant, the emperor did not let him go, a good meal, and finally the two of them together knew that this was all caused by the joke at yesterday's court meeting.
The emperor himself opened his head and said: "Aiqing, we have been busy for so long, and now we have finally won a big victory, can Ming'er sleep lazily?"
The ministers all laughed and didn't say anything.
Shoufu Yu Jingyang probably won a big victory, a little fluttering, and said happily: "It's drip, we people have to get up every day, and the palace maids and guards get up earlier, so we have to have a good holiday." ”
The emperor squinted and didn't speak..... It took a while before he burst into laughter, and the ministers followed suit.
The contradiction of this legend is that Yu Jingyang Shoufu bit it to death and said that the emperor said several good words in a row when the ministers were laughing, and the emperor retorted: "He just laughed, and said nothing else." ’
I don't know if it's true or not, but I know that the ministers really didn't go to court today.
At this time, when the pedestrians on the street were discussing, Song Shanhe, the head of the household, and his son Song Hanchuan's carriage were driving by.
Before the father and son went out, their faces were as white as frosted eggplants, and they were very embarrassed.
After withdrawing from the Zhujie Mansion, Song Shanhe was worried, although he didn't know how the fire dragon escaped from the palace, but he Song Shanhe could judge with his keen intuition over the years that Lu Dongsheng and the others did not go well in forcing Zhao Gaochi to submit in the Tianji Palace.
At this time, a eunuch rushed to the palace and said: "My lord, why haven't you even changed your court clothes, the emperor is waiting for you to go to the court, hurry up, the emperor is in a hurry," After speaking, he ran away, Song Shanhe wanted to take the opportunity to bribe and listen to the tone, but Song Hanchuan bumped into the eunuch at the gate of the mansion, and heard him mutter: "What's the matter today, why are the ministers oversleeping?"
Not long after the eunuch left, the Huajiao Xi of the Qingjiao Academy arrived, and this martial arts teacher was sweating at the moment, it turned out that the emperor summoned him to ask all the students who participated in the Qingjiao Festival to go to the Tianji Hall to watch the reward ceremony for the meritorious ministers.
When the incident happened suddenly, Hua Jiaoxi was in a hurry to notify the next family, and he also didn't give Song Shanhe a chance to be polite.
The father and son of the Song family didn't know what medicine was being sold in the emperor's gourd, he was still bold, and he didn't believe that the emperor could kill all the ministers, so he really took his son to the Tianji Palace, but before leaving, he secretly informed the lady to pack up and be ready to run away at any time.
At this moment, hearing the words of the people on the street, Song Shanhe hurriedly stopped the carriage.
Song Shanhe, who is usually arrogant, behaved very modestly today, and after getting out of the car, he grabbed an old man with inconvenient legs and feet from the crowd of people who were running in a panic, and asked him to sit down, and asked some legends about today's court, Song Shanhe's reputation among the people is only better than Jing Chen, and everyone is afraid, how dare ordinary people dare to lie when they see such a kind tiger, they can only tell him one by one, and after speaking, they can't stop kowtowing and begging for mercy, for fear that Song Tiger will eat people.
Today, the sun came out in the west, and Song Laohu did not kill anyone, but took off the priceless jade pendant on his waist and threw it to the old man.
After returning to the car, Lord Shang Shu regained his old self-confidence, at this moment he was sure that Lu Dongsheng's gang had failed, and he also told Song Hanchuan very definitely that not only would he not be punished for entering the palace this time, but he would also be rewarded by the emperor.
After noon, the sky finally cleared after a dark morning, and by the afternoon the sky was clear, and the summer heat could already be felt under the sun.
Yu Jingyang changed into a clean court dress and stood outside the gate of Tianji Hall Square.
Jing Ming also put on a new armor, white armor embroidered with gold wire, so handsome, at this moment he is standing one step behind Yu Jingyang, this position originally belonged to Zhao Gaoming, the king of Ming, and it caused the side eyes of the officials, but since Yu Shoufu didn't feel that it was wrong, everyone didn't say anything.
Song Shanhe deserves to be an old fox, he gave a kind smile when he passed by the youth, and the elder asked with full satisfaction: "Ming'er hasn't seen her for a long time, and she has grown taller again." ”
Jing Ming grinned.
In his heart, this smiling fox has not cheated his father in the court.
Song Shanhe's mind was not on Jing Ming's body, but he took the opportunity to get to Yu Jingyang's side and take the opportunity to spy on his injuries, asking himself that even if he Yu Jingyang could escape from Lu Dongsheng and others, he would definitely be seriously injured.
Just when he was puzzled, Yu Jingyang turned his head, smiled, and said, "It's time for adults, we should go in." ”
Song Shanhe hurriedly agreed respectfully.
Zhongyan went to the court, according to the order of rank, Yu Jingyang was naturally ranked first, Zhao Gaoming was the prince and ranked second, but he didn't come until now, Yu Jingyang didn't wait for him, he entered Tianji Square first, Jing Ming followed the second one in, Song Shanhe followed behind, the disciples of the school palace did not enter the product and could only follow at the back, the teenagers participated in the court meeting for the first time, it was inevitable that they were a little curious, when they looked around, they saw Jing Ming at the front, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he wondered why he was there?
Soon the students found a reason, and it must be sticking to his Lao Tzu's light.
Martial arts has always been unconvinced by anyone, and the students will naturally look down on Jing Ming's behavior of relying on Lao Tzu, and they are sneering in their hearts, and when they wait for the Qingjiao Festival, they will definitely step him under the soles of their feet to show their heroic nature.
On the way to the court, it is not allowed to talk loudly, the students are restless characters, this time the court is quite in a hurry, many ceremonial palaces are too late to inform, the teenagers enter the square and see the white marble brick ground cracked like a ravine, as hideous and scary, can't help but exclaim again and again, especially when I see the bottom of the ravine with blood stains, the timid can't help but call Mom.
Originally, Song Shanhe's heart was put in his stomach, but at this moment, he lifted it again, wondering what the emperor meant by this move.
Except for special treatment, officials below the fourth rank are not qualified to enter the Tianji Hall to participate in the deliberations, and the disciples of the Academy Palace are also left in the square.
Yu Jingyang took the ministers to the palace.
After the ministers came in, they suddenly found that there was an embarrassing figure in the hall, this person was a teenager, he was dressed in ordinary clothes and his hair was yellow like a peasant child, this person's head hung down heavily, he was already very inferior and nervous, and at this moment he saw so many ministers in gorgeous clothes and brocade clothes, and the two hands were twisted together, so nervous that he didn't know where to put it.
The great eunuch Wei Jinzhong sang: "The emperor has arrived in ....."
Inside and outside the hall, he knocked to the ground very tacitly, singing the voice that should have sounded in the early morning: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live." ”
There are only two figures in the quiet court who have not knelt down, Yu Jingyang, who has long been exempted from kneeling, and the young Jing Ming, why is he so confident? It all lies in the bull that Jing Chen bragged at that time: "Boy, I will go into the palace and ask you for a sign that you don't need to kneel when you see the emperor," isn't this the emperor's blood general order lying in his arms, don't kneel when you see the emperor.
Yu Jingyang doesn't kneel, others won't say anything, and the young men don't kneel, and the ministers will go home and say it if they have something to say, but the young man in the Qingjiao School Palace has no good temper, and he can't help but whisper sarcastic.
Zhao Gaochi is really a trouble-free master, he is still wearing the dragon robe that I don't know how much sweat he has absorbed, in his words, this is called glory, isn't it awesome to go through so many nine deaths and not die in one life, he waved his sleeves and said: "Zhong Aiqing is flat." ”
In the midst of the thanksgiving lord, the ministers stood up.
The emperor motioned for the eunuch to present the things that had been prepared for a long time, and said: "Our dynasty has won a great victory in the Liang State today, and you are all meritorious ministers, and you should be rewarded for meritorious deeds," at this time, he raised his voice a few points, and said: "Song Shangshu has worked hard to manage the household department, and has made great contributions to the front line by arranging money and food, so he is specially given a piece of gifted jade." ”
Rite jade and jade seal stored together, is a jade pendant that can be worn, jade seal carries the national fortune, the gift of jade with it put down together, over time will stick to the ethereal luck, the ministers are martial arts masters, the jade is like a martial arts adventure, it is a good reward.
Song Shanhe flicked off the sleeves of his court clothes, knelt on the ground again, and said, "Thank you, Lord Longen, this is a matter within the minister's share, and I really don't dare to receive the reward..."
Song Hanchuan grinned outside the hall, and sure enough, everything was as his father expected.
Liyu prepared a total of six pieces and gave them six books.
At this time, Wei Jinzhong sang an unfamiliar name of the ministers: "Li Yubai, the deputy general of the Jinyi Guard, stepped forward to listen to the seal...."
Li Yubai is often on the front line, and the court knows very little about his name, so not only muttering who he is at this moment?
Vice Adjutant Jinyiwei was not qualified to enter the Tianji Palace, but he was specially summoned to follow the minister at the end, and after listening to the reward, he hurriedly stepped forward and learned to thank Long live: "The last will be." ”
Wei Jinzhong said: "Feng Li Yubai is the chief general of the Jinyi Guard, and he still belongs to the Tiance Army, and he still obeys the original commander. ”
The general of the Tiance Army is Jing Chen, and it is still his subordinate Li Yubai has no opinion, and he still listens to what the original general means, or does he still have to listen to that hairy boy? Doesn't this mean that he has not been promoted, Zhao Gaochi gave him a look, the main general has a salary increase.
"The chief general of the Jinyi Guard, Jing Ming stepped forward to listen to the seal. ”
Jing Ming stood straight, hugged his fists and said, "The end will be." ”
This reward order was personally executed by Emperor Zhao Gaochi, and said: "Give the title of Earl Jing Ming, the commander of the Jinyi Guard, and call Ming." ”
The king, the candidate, the uncle, the son, the male, every title is a great glory, the first auxiliary Yu Jingyang has been thinking hard for the country for so long and still has not been crowned, which is enough to see the glory of the title.
At this time, both the ministers and the students in the square were not calm, the point was that the emperor had not said why he had added the title of Jingming, which attracted a lot of speculation.
I was added to the earl title at such a young age, and I will get it in the future?
Where did he get the ability to get into the knighthood?
The father-son party is really strong.
It's nice to have a dad.
At this moment, Wei Jinzhong read out a message: "Jing Chen, the general of the Fengtian Ce Army, is the king of the East Star, and the fief is the thirteen counties inside and outside Kangyan City. ”
Zhongyan has never had a king with a different surname, this is the first time, and it has caused a lot of discussion among the courtiers.
In one day, the father and son were all added to the official ranks, and the limelight in the court can be said to be in full swing, but there are still a large number of courtiers who are not used to it, and the students outside the Tianji Hall are all ready to beat the young uncle down in the Qingjiao Dabi.
When the emperor asked him what he wanted, the unattractive guy said, "He wants to participate in the Qingjiao Competition." ’
The emperor was very happy and gave Qingjiao the black iron token.
The emperor waved his hand and said, "There are guests who have invited us from afar." ”
Lu Dongsheng of Jidao, Xiao Yi of Xifengcheng Qinyi, and Yin Zhiyang of the Pure Yang Sect all walked up to the Tianji Hall step by step from the gate of the Tianji Hall Square, and saluted: "I have seen His Majesty the Emperor." ”
