Chapter 90: I Want to See the Queen Mother

The total of the three of them, time flies, and before they know it, it will be the fifth watch. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoIt wasn't until dawn that Ximen Qing and Sima Bai left Funing Palace in a hurry.

The sun rose in the east, and Empress Dowager Gao once again sent someone to Funing Palace, where Zhao Xu was under house arrest.

The visitor was dressed in a dark green round-necked large-sleeved silk brocade robe, with a leather belt around his waist, a hood on his head, and leather shoes on his feet. He has no beard, holds a whisk of dust in his right hand, and between his gestures, he looks like a woman.

The head of the capital guarding the Funing Palace saw the person from afar, he hurriedly stepped forward and saluted: "See Han Duzhi!"

Yes, the person who came was the most official minister in the harem. It is the "eunuch" we all know. However, the eunuchs of the Song Dynasty were not called eunuchs, but were generally called chamberlains, ministers, eunuchs, and lieutenants;

As for the name "eunuch", it first appeared in Liao, and it was originally the name of a high-ranking position in the government, and it was not necessarily held by eunuchs.

At this time, the Northern Song Dynasty was a eunuch institution that followed the name of Zhenzong Jingde in three years: there were internal service provinces and ** service provinces. The name of the Inner Province is "Qiansheng", the other name is "Nanban", and the first province is generally abbreviated as "Inner Province" at that time, and the number is "Hou Province", and the nickname is "North Division".

"History of the Song Dynasty: Career Official Six" said: "The number of the province and the province of the inner service is the province before and after, and the province is particularly close to the province. In the forbidden service, those who serve and prosphegate are subordinate to the introspection. In the arch palace, prepare the duty of sprinkling and sweeping, and serve the miscellaneous goods, and subordinate to the province. ”

The eunuchs of the Song Dynasty were of relatively low grades, and the high-grade officials of the Inner Servant Province were all known, and the Escort Class was the highest official of the eunuchs, and they were only the sixth-grade officials, and the local official Sima was at the same level;

This Han Dudu's original name is Han Shouen, and it is from the fifth rank official that he is more than one level higher than the head of this forbidden soldier!

Originally, in the Northern Song Dynasty at this time, the status of eunuchs was not high, why did this head go all the way to meet Han Shouen? Just because he is a big celebrity next to the Empress Dowager Gao!

Han Shouen put the dust whisk in his hand on his left arm, and said softly: "The old slave has come to disturb Li Dutou again, and he has to bother Li Dutou, so that the old slave can go in to meet the saint." "His voice is high-pitched, and he really sounds bald~

This Li Dutou is the person who talked to Ximenqing yesterday, and when he heard Han Shouen's words, he couldn't help but get goosebumps. The other eunuchs are gone, and the voice is neutral, and there is no one like him?

Tang Zhen described the eunuch in "The Hidden Book": "Looking at it is not like a human body, looking like a human face, hearing it is not like a human voice, and observing it is not close to human feelings." Li Dutou's thoughts at this time are basically similar to this description: distinguish whether he looks like a man or not......

Li Dutou didn't say a word, and hurriedly sent him into Funing Palace.

Han Shouen came to the door of the Chengqian Pavilion and patted the non-existent dust on his body with a whisk before entering the pavilion.

At this time, Emperor Zhao Xu was practicing calligraphy and painting in front of the table, and when he saw Han Shouen come in and bow down, he put down the pen in his hand.

"The old slave has seen the emperor, long live the emperor, long live the emperor!"

"Calm down!" Zhao Xu said nonchalantly, "You come to see me every day, you don't get annoyed, I feel tired." ”

As soon as Han Shouen stood up, when he heard Zhao Xu's words, he was so frightened that he immediately knelt on the ground again, and said in a panic: "It's the old slave's fault! The old slave is at the disposal of the emperor, and he will never dare to complain!"

"You go, I don't want to see you again. ”

"The old slave will get out, this will get out. "When the slave is the best at figuring out the holy will, the emperor asked him to 'go', and he himself said 'get out', psychologically he admitted that Zhao Xu was the Ninety-Five Emperor and obviously superior, and the following of us were naturally ants, and we only relied on your words to deal with it. This completely satisfied Zhao Xu's vanity as an emperor~

Han Shouen entered the palace as a child, and he has been in the palace for more than 40 years, and he can sit next to the Empress Dowager Gao until he knows it, so he naturally has his uniqueness, and it is a piece of cake to figure out the holy will and slap the horse~

As soon as Han Shouen stepped out of the door, before he could breathe a sigh of relief, he heard Zhao Xu speak again.

"Wait!"

"Hey, the old slave is here!" Han Shouen took another small step, walked more than ten steps, and returned to Chengqian Pavilion.

Kneeling down again to listen to the holy will, Han Shouen only felt that his old arms and legs were about to be tired, especially his knees, and he had three close contacts with the ground, how could it hurt!

Zhao Xu is just playing with him! Han Shouen is a big celebrity next to the Empress Dowager Gao, the Empress Dowager, Zhao Xu can't afford to offend, and she is locked up, but Zhao Xu can still abuse one of her dogs to relieve the anger in his heart that has nowhere to release.

Seeing Han Shouen kneeling on the ground and trembling in pain, Zhao Xu accepted it when he saw it and said, "You get up and talk back." ”

Han Shouen is a clever ghost, how can he not know that the emperor is not angry with the queen mother, and this is making fun of himself? He bowed to Zhao Xu again and replied sharply: "The old slave still kneels and listens to the emperor's holy words, so that he can remember the emperor's holy will." ”

Yo hey, you still don't feel pain!

Zhao Xu pursed his lips and said, "Doesn't the Queen Mother just want me to admit my mistake? Doesn't she want me to withdraw the will of the military reform? Doesn't she want me to release the Western Xia prisoners? I can agree with her opinion......

When Han Shouen heard this, he thought to himself that his ears were not good, and he had heard the wrong thing? Seven days had passed since the emperor was placed under house arrest, and he had come to persuade the emperor every day to give up the reform, but all of them had been in vain.

As soon as he came in today, he was driven away by the emperor, thinking that it would be no fun again. How did I know that happiness came too suddenly, Zhao Xu finally succumbed to the Empress Dowager Gao!

He was so excited that he couldn't help but cry: this is really a nowhere to find a place to step on the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get it. The hard work of the past few days has not been in vain! Today's three bows have not been in vain!

"Hey, hey~ Why are you crying? I promised to make you so sad?" Zhao Xu's voice came from above. It turned out that just when he wanted to get into trouble, Zhao Xu walked in front of him.

"No, no!" Han Shouen hurriedly shook his head and hurriedly replied, "The old slave was moved to tears for the emperor's righteousness. The emperor is wise and decisive, and his views are high, and he has really inherited the imperial style of the first emperor, and he must be a generation of Ming monarchs......"

"Alright, alright! Don't slap my ass. Zhao Xu looked disgusted, and said, "I haven't finished talking just now. I can agree with her, but I need to see her again before I can make it clear to her face. ”

The old slave immediately went back and told the Queen Mother about this. Han Shouen kowtowed to Zhao Xu again and said excitedly.

Before he could get up, Zhao Xu patted him on the shoulder and pressed him to the ground again: "I said what are you in a hurry." Can't you let me finish my words?" Zhao Xu played with Han Shouen again, he only looked at his jokes, and didn't notice for a while that his title had been changed to 'I' instead of 'I'~

"Bang Bang Bang ......"

Han Shouen knew that he was overjoyed just now, and he got carried away for a while, interjected a lot, and refuted the emperor's face, he hurriedly started work with his left and right hands and slapped himself.

He fanned back while admitting his mistake: "The old slave is guilty! The old slave is guilty......

It wasn't until he slapped him more than a hundred times, making his face red and swollen and his words slurred, that Zhao Xu let him go: "Okay! Stop! You go back and tell the Queen Mother that I want to see her here, or the time will be set the day after tomorrow." I hope that the day after tomorrow (7~9 o'clock in the morning) she can come to Funing Palace to sit for a while, and our grandparents and grandchildren will reminisce about the old ......"
