Chapter 6: The Imperial City Revitalizes the Prestige of the Country-06
Wu Nai and the three came to the front gate of the palace, were led into the front hall by the eunuchs to be examined, their weapons were seized, and after their identities were verified, they waited in the palace for summons. After a while, a fat-headed and fat-brained eunuch entered the hospitality room, he raised his head proudly, only to see his double chin move, and squeezed out a voice that was neither male nor female: "Who is Wu Nai?"
The three of them hurriedly got up, and Wu Nai gave a fist salute: "It's right down." ”
The eunuch did not pay attention to him immediately, but looked at him, and then asked, "Who is with you?"
Wu Nai: "One is my wife, and the other is my brother." ”
"Hmph. Although Your Majesty did not specify how many people you should bring with you, you still have to say hello, there are no rules at all. After the eunuch finished speaking, he ignored the others, and just turned his face and stood where he was.
Bai Yu and Liu Baoshuang looked at each other, I don't know why this eunuch gave them a face. And Wu Nai's ghost was clever and understood, he walked to the eunuch, quietly took out a piece of silver from his arms and stuffed it into the eunuch's hand: "Father-in-law, you have a lot, we naturally don't understand the rules when we enter the palace for the first time, please bear with me." ”
The eunuch weighed it in his hand, and it seemed that the weight made him quite satisfied, and the corners of his mouth finally squeezed out a lewd smile: "Hmph, forget it this time." Come on, follow me to Juxian Pavilion, Father-in-law Huaide and his old man are still waiting. ”
Wu Nai turned his head and glanced at Bai Yu and Mishuang, and the three of them followed the fat eunuch in the labyrinthine imperial city to turn left and right, and finally came to a large hall, and the gold plaque on the door of the hall was inlaid with three golden characters of "Juxian Pavilion".
Before the group entered the door, a vicissitudes of life and a calm neutral male voice came from the hall: "Wen Zhong, is Wu Daxia, who won the 'first place in the world', here?"
The fat eunuch just heard the voice, so he hurriedly rushed to the door of the hall with his little short feet, and kowtowed with a smile on his face as if something was happening, and returned loudly: "Godfather is really an unpredictable prophet! It is the 'first in the world' who has come! The son does not dare to slack off! I have already brought someone over to your old man!"
"Okay, you've worked hard, please let them in, you can retreat first if you're okay for a while. ”
"Son obeys!" the fat eunuch smiled at the three of them, and raised his hand to invite the three of them into the door. Bai Yu and Bully Shuang walked while looking at this fat eunuch like a rare animal, and marveled at how fast he changed his face faster than turning a book. It was Wu Nai, as if nothing had happened, he tidied up his clothes, and then walked in front of the hall first, Bai Yu and Bully Shuang also hurriedly followed him into the palace gate.
The person in the hall was a tall and thin bearded old man with a kind smile, and he politely bent down and saluted: "Hello everyone, the contemptible person is Ouchi and the chief eunuch of the imperial palace. On the orders of His Majesty the Emperor, I have come to receive you, and I ask for your forgiveness for any neglect. ”
The three of them hurriedly returned the salute, and Wu Nai returned: "Where is it, my father-in-law is tired to come to receive it, and I can't afford to wait." ”
The bully behind Wu Nai whispered to Bai Yu in the same row: "Hey, Bai Yu, that fat eunuch is not much, this old gentleman who looks higher is quite kind, what do you say is going on?"
Bai Yu hurriedly whispered back: "Shhhhh
Because the front of the palace was too quiet, Huaide heard it clearly, and he laughed heartily: "Hahahaha, most of the eunuchs in this palace have not read any books, so naturally they don't have much cultivation, and please don't be surprised by this woman." ”
Wu Nai turned his head and looked pale, and hurriedly persuaded: "Bullying, this is in front of Father-in-law Huaide, don't talk nonsense." ”
Huaide looked appreciative: "Where, where, this woman is young, but she is not afraid of this deep palace, and she can speak outright is the husband of the woman, and the old man appreciates it very much." ”
Wu Nai breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly turned his head to make amends: "My lady is disrespectful, and she also invites her father-in-law Haihan." ”
Huaide held Wu Nai's saluting hands and said kindly: "Wu Daxia doesn't have to be polite, the people in the rivers and lakes are upright and refreshing, these are all known to the world, you don't have to take it to heart." Hurry up and follow me to meet the emperor. ”
Wu Nai nodded again and again: "Okay, then Father-in-law Lao will lead the way, please!"
The three of them walked through the main hall, and finally arrived at the "Auxiliary State Palace" used by the emperor as a guest, although it was not as magnificent as Juxian Pavilion, it could be regarded as splendid.
Huaide walked to the door and knelt down and kowtowed inside, not immediately raising his head, but immediately reported: "Your Majesty, the old slave has brought Wu Nai, who won the championship at the Zhige Meeting. ”
A crisp male voice came from inside the door: "Okay!
Under the guidance of Huaide, the three of them walked into the palace gate.
A young man dressed in a gold-threaded dragon robe sits at a gold-encrusted sandalwood desk. He can't say that he is handsome and chic, but his aura is extraordinary, and his eyes are full of sharp light, even if he doesn't have this dragon robe, he can feel a heavenly force that can suppress the aura around him.
Huaide entered the door and came to the emperor, and immediately knelt down: "Huaide, the chief eunuch of the imperial palace, I greet His Majesty the Emperor, and I wish my emperor long live, long live, long live." ”
The three of them immediately knelt down and saluted, shouting in unison: "Long live my emperor." ”
"Excuse me! Waiter, give the three heroes a seat. ”
The young emperor seemed to have been waiting for a long time, and he happily asked, "Who is Wu Nai?" ”
Wu Nai was about to sit down, and when he heard the emperor's question, he stopped his butt and was about to answer, but His Majesty the emperor immediately opened his mouth again: "I can see it! There is a trace of majesty in the courteous manners, you are the 'No. 1 in the world' Wu Nai!"
The emperor pointed at Bai Yu, and Bai Yu looked back at the emperor with his mouth open, as if he was permanently frozen in the moment when he caught the stool, like a statue petrified in place.
