Walking in the vermilion palace, he was not followed by any cronies and retinue, but he was alone.

There are always some eunuchs from the Yellow Gate who sweep around, as well as teams of patrolling guards, and Gong'e who are lined up in two rows and don't know what to do.

Lonely, because anyone who sees his figure clearly will put down their work at the first time, kneel down and kowtow, and the nearest one will whisper the last Chitose.

The name Chitose was installed on Xu Ruyi's head more than a month ago, and I don't know who was the first to shout it, I checked it, but I found nothing. In short, as soon as this name appeared, it spread rapidly like a plague, first in the palace, then in Nanjing City outside the palace, and finally in this desolate world.

Xu Ruyi didn't like this name, it was a false name and could not bring any real benefits. At the same time, there is also great harm.

The reputation of eunuchs in politics is still secondary, and the most important thing is the eyes of every eunuch in the palace who looks at him.

Admiration?

No, it should be lust and ambition, he has made a bad start, and the arrow will shoot into his heart at some time and place.

After passing through a cloister and looking up, I have entered the realm of the harem.

The harem, the emperor's private residence, to put it in the vernacular, is actually the place where the emperor and his three thousand beauties live.

The Han Emperor was heavy on the country, and Yuyu couldn't ask for it for many years.

The emperor is rich in the world, in his previous life, Xu Ruyi has always had some doubts about Bai Juyi's long hatred song, how can an emperor who has been in the palace for many years not even find a decent beauty, so that he has to hook up with his daughter-in-law to pick up ashes, leaving an infamy through the ages.

When he really walked into the inner courtyard of the palace, and the emperor's furniture was in front of him, he understood that in this matter of men and women, the emperor could be regarded as the most miserable person in the world.

Every show girl who enters the palace is selected from outside the palace, and in imagination, every woman who gets a ticket to the palace should be too beautiful to be right, but in fact, the bad is in the four words "thousands of choices".

Teeth are not aligned, body length is too high or too low, skin color is too white and black, body is too plump and thin...

Aesthetics really depends on the individual, the king of Chu has a thin waist, Sui and Tang are plump, and Zhu Yunwen has talked to Xu Ruyi in private, what he likes is a woman with a weak personality and a hot body.

Coincidentally, the women who occupy these two items are not allowed to enter the palace.

So when Xu Ru saw Gu Yunyan and Yue Linglong, he thought about sending them to Zhu Yunwen's side.

Iron also needs its own hardness, with these two hard hammers, I think that as long as Zhu Yunwen is not a diamond heart, he can't resist the temptation of this beauty.

But I don't know what the situation is with this Zhu Yunwen, is it really that he doesn't like women, or is there something else in it? Gu Yunyan and Yue Linglong have been settled in the Yafang Palace and Shuxin Palace by Zhu Yunwen since they entered the palace, and they have never seen them again, let alone be favored.

Xu Ruyi had a feeling of punching the air, which made him feel very uncomfortable.

The plum blossoms in the Imperial Garden are in full bloom, adding a lot of vitality to this warm winter. When Xu Ruyi came, Zhu Yunwen was in a daze in the small pavilion, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Liu Xi still stood quietly behind him as a wooden man. It wasn't until he noticed Xu Ruyi's arrival that he lowered his head and whispered softly in Zhu Yunwen's ear: "Your Majesty, Gonggong Xu is here." ”

"Huh?" Zhu Yunwen came back to his senses, turned his head, and said with a smile: "Ruyi, you are here, I am thinking about you." ”

Xu Ruyi also replied with a smile: "Your Majesty, don't you think about the slaves and maids stealing fish back then?"

"Hahahaha. Zhu Yunwen laughed loudly: "At the beginning, you were bold, not to mention stealing the fish in the imperial garden, but also daring to invite me, the master's family, to eat, if you were seen by the imperial grandfather on the spot, you would definitely pick off your head." ”

"So it's fate, so that the slave maid met His Majesty. Xu Ruyi scratched his nose, a little embarrassed: "Your Majesty, I really don't blame the slaves, you have also eaten the food in this palace all the way, and it is not delicious to say that it is unpalatable, but it is too delicate to make people uninterested." ”

"Well, that's what you say. Zhu Yunwen nodded, picked up two white pears from the table, wiped them casually, and handed one to Xu Ruyi: "Sit, taste, it seems to be from Hami or somewhere, it tastes good." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty. ”

While eating pears, Zhu Yunwen said, "Tell me, what's going on again?"

"It's not a big deal, it's just that there are some small turmoil in the rivers and lakes, and the slaves and maids are a little undecided, and they want to ask Your Majesty to decide. ”

Zhu Yunwen casually threw the pear core into the small river outside the pavilion, and took the secret report in Xu Ruyi's hand with a smile: "I don't know much about the affairs of the rivers and lakes, and those martial arts people who only know how to fight and kill can't set off any storms. ”

"This time things are a little different. ”

"How?"

"The White Lotus Sect is also involved. ”

"White Lotus Sect?" Zhu Yunwen frowned, unfolded the letterhead in his hand and read it, still a little puzzled: "What is the big deal with me, it turns out that those sects on the rivers and lakes are going to crusade against the White Lotus Sect, which is a good thing." What do you think you're worried about?"

"Your Majesty, the slave has an idea and would like to share it with you. Xu Ruyi coughed, and Liu Xi on the side comprehended the retreat of the palace eunuchs who were waiting around.

"Your Majesty, the White Lotus Sect has been making trouble for hundreds of years, and the successive dynasties have repeatedly banned and killed each other, and the slaves and maids feel that the reason for this is actually because they are like a group of rats, which is really too difficult to find.

The people are ignorant, susceptible to the tricks of the White Lotus Sect, the court is slightly out of government, or there are some natural and man-made disasters, there is always a group of ordinary people who come out of nowhere and start to rebel with white turbans.

When the imperial court sent troops, they saw that the situation was not good and dispersed in a hurry, and in the end, the imperial court paid money and grain to clean up the mess, just like the chaos in Shu back then, and the imperial court spent a lot of money. It's okay once or twice, but it's not a matter if it goes on like this. ”

"Alas. Zhu Yunwen also sighed: "When the imperial grandfather was there, he also talked to me about the White Lotus Sect, the meaning of the imperial grandfather, the roots of the White Lotus Sect are in the rivers and lakes, maybe it can be restricted by the rules of the martial arts people, if you really want to say that it is a hundred solutions, the imperial grandfather has no idea." ”

"The first emperor is eloquent and strategic, and the layout of the rivers and lakes is admired by the slaves and maids. Xu Ruyi praised it, and then changed the conversation: "But the slave maid thinks that the current siege of the White Lotus Sect by the Jianghu Sect is an opportunity, and maybe she can add a sharp edge to the chessboard of the first emperor." ”

"Oh?" Zhu Yunwen said curiously, "What do you have in mind?"

Xu Ruyi smiled faintly: "Without it, it's just adding fuel to the fire." ”
