Chapter Eighty-Eight: The Squire
Zhou Tong took his three apprentices and returned to Huizong, Huizong looked at the four of them and said, "Very good, it looks very suitable!" Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info The rest, I'll talk about it tomorrow. Then he turned sideways and said to Gonggong Li: "You take them to rest." ”
"Huh!" Gonggong Li stepped forward and said, "Please come with me!"
Then, Gonggong Li walked slowly step by step, followed by four masters and apprentices dressed in black and wearing iron helmets. After arriving at the room, Li Gong took the bus on his behalf: "The four of you will rest early, and the old slave will come over early tomorrow morning to arrange." ”
The four of them, looking at the dim candlelight, felt a little tired, so they washed and slept separately. Pang He was lying on the bed, thinking about some things in his heart, and felt a little unable to sleep, one, looking at the empty room, the little remaining moonlight through the open window, and the faint guard suit, felt funny, and a little helpless, especially the iron helmet, this Song Huizong, a dignified emperor, thought about it, and smiled again.
The night is late, and the four masters and apprentices have also slept, and the silence of tonight seems to indicate that the storm is about to surge, and the silence before the autumn hunt is about to come, like a bomb that is quietly being planted, just waiting to ignite the fuse and detonate instantly.
Su Ying watched Pang He's departure, naturally a little worried, lying on the bed, and fell asleep for a long time.
The night passed quickly, and Pang He was awakened by a knock on the door because he slept late, rubbed his eyes, got out of bed and opened the door. Outside the door, there were two little eunuchs, one of them holding a plate with some food on it, and the other was a little older, who must have just knocked on the door, and said, "This is breakfast, please use it." ”
After speaking, the plate was sent into the room, placed on the table, and then closed the door, and the two waited outside the door: "After the emperor invites you to eat, we will bring it over!"
Pang He cheered up, washed up, and began to eat. After eating a little, he put on last night's clothes and put on his iron helmet: "Okay, let's go!"
The two eunuchs led Pang He through the corridor and soon arrived at the room from last night. It's different from last night, it's even more magnificent. And in front of him, there are already three iron-masked people like himself, needless to say, they are his master and senior brother. From his eyes, Pang He faintly saw who these three were.
The last Pang He had already spoken, and Gonggong Li spoke: "In the past two days, the emperor wants you to be the emperor's bodyguard, wait a minute, the old slave will arrange for you to be with the guards who were originally protecting the emperor's side, to see how they are." ”
"What a superfluous move! In this hunt, the minister must pay attention to the merits of the emperor and himself to rob, how can he pay attention to the behavior of the guards? Besides, in just two days, is it possible, and it will be nondescript when the time comes. Pang He said in his heart.
Zhao Ji waited for Gonggong Li to finish speaking, and then pointed to another eunuch and said, "Xiao Liao, you go and bring me the saber I prepared yesterday." ”
After the four masters and apprentices put on their swords, Zhao Ji smiled again: "Well, it's the same as I thought, not bad, not bad." This is a weapon I have given you, made of stainless steel, and although it is not a famous product, it is also extremely sharp. ”
"Thank you, Emperor!" the four masters and apprentices said in unison.
"Now accompany me to walk around the garden, I think, Zhou Aiqing's apprentice should be the first time to come to the palace, today I will show you my garden. Zhao Ji said: "Gonggong Li, you call the Qi guards too, let's go shopping together." ”
"Let's go first!" Zhao Ji said, "The Qi guard chief will come over immediately." ”
The four masters and apprentices followed Zhao Ji all the way, and the royal garden was really magnificent, even in the autumn when the trees were falling down, it did not reduce the vitality in this garden at all. Chrysanthemums of various colors are dazzling in the garden, and pines and cypresses stand tall in the autumn breeze. At this time, the lotus leaves have withered, but they are still left in the small pool, and it seems that there is a little residual lotus to listen to the smell of rain, and the fish in the pond also poke their heads out from time to time to worship the Son of Heaven who came over. Zhao Ji was very happy, leading the four of them, talking and laughing, and sometimes chanting a few words, setting off his own cultural atmosphere. When he walked to a pavilion, Zhao Ji pointed to a few words on the pavilion and said to the four people: "Look, these words are good!"
Pang He looked at the direction of Zhao Ji's finger: "Yiforget Pavilion!"
Zhao Ji said: "Well, it's a forgetting pavilion! Do you know why it's called a forgetting pavilion?"
Seeing that the four of them did not respond, Zhao Ji continued: "Don't forget the spring breeze and autumn flowers, but look at the world!"
Pang He paid close attention to these three words at this time, Song Huizong's words are really exquisite, thin and golden, melodious and slender, and there is a royal noble model, such three words, but they can also Song Huizong Zhao Ji's life. Forget the Son of Heaven, leave the Great Song Dynasty behind, only seek pleasure, and ignore the government. After the difficulty of Jingkang, he forgot it, without the treatment of the former Son of Heaven and the Emperor, even ordinary people are not as good, the family has suffered all the shame, and if you forget, how can you forget.
Zhao Ji saw that the four of them still didn't speak, and said, "You guys, you can talk to me, I seem to be talking to myself all the way, it's really boring." ”
The eunuch beside him said: "Your Majesty, they have really become your guards like this, I see, this is very similar!"
Zhao Ji smiled: "Xiao Liao, you are right, you are really right, the guards around me are so boring and don't say a word." When I think of what kind of hunting, I might as well play Keju with Captain Gao. You say, how long has it been since I've played?"
The eunuch replied, "It's been more than two years since I returned to the emperor. ”
Zhao Ji said: "That's really a bit long, I'm old, and I always don't feel like I'm caring." Think about back then, I and Captain Gao, how happy it was. ”
The eunuch said: "The emperor is not old, but the emperor has been busy with state affairs recently, and he has worked hard for the Great Song Dynasty, so he can't take care of having fun." ”
Zhao Ji shook his head and shook his hand again: "You, you don't have to flatter me." I know that I am powerless for the Great Song Dynasty. ”
At this time, the chief of the Qi guards arrived, and together with Zhou Tong, the difference was that they did not wear iron helmets. Zhao Ji said: "You are here, I asked Gonggong Li to order clothes for you, just like them, I will let Gonggong Li send them tomorrow." Saying that, Zhao Ji pointed at Zhou Tong and them: "Look, it's good, how mighty!"
The head of the Qi guard said: "Yes, it is very powerful!"
After that, Zhao Ji took these people to wander in the garden, there were only these few people in the vast royal garden, which seemed a little deserted, especially without the sound of birds, and the people around Zhao Ji didn't talk much, except for the occasional eunuch to say a few flattering words, it was really boring.
