Chapter 5 The Emperor's Invitation
(Please give me a red ticket! Please collect it! Please give me a reward! In addition, Lao Mo’s friend praised Jieyan’s new book "The Ultimate Gangster")
Si Nan was hundreds of miles away from Huadu. He drove non-stop all the way and arrived at the boundary of Huadu. It was already nightfall. The carriage stopped at the door of Yang Ziting's house in Huadu, and an old man hurriedly greeted him. This old man was Yang Ziting who had been placed in the house.
The housekeeper in Huadu Mansion, named Fu Sheng, was older than Yang Ziting, but he devoted all his youth to the Yang family. His wife died young, and his children were the only relatives in the world. Yang Ziting arranged for him to be a man in the house.
The housekeeper usually has little work to do, even if he spends his old age peacefully. Therefore, Fusheng can be regarded as repaying his kindness and being loyal to Yang Ziting's family.
"Master, you are finally here."
When Fusheng saw that the carriage had stopped, he personally stepped forward to lift the curtain for Yang Ziting, and then helped Yang Ziting, who had been tired for most of the day, to step out of the carriage. Yun Qi followed him down, and Fusheng just nodded in greeting, and then ordered another person
The family members took Yun Qi to rest. He had already made ginseng tea for Yang Ziting and wanted to serve his master to the back room to rest.
A servant who was about the same age as Yun Qi took Yun Qi all the way to the guest room and then respectfully excused himself. Although they were all servants, being able to stay with the master was naturally superior to him. It was rare that Yun Qi enjoyed the young master's care.
Treatment. However, while walking along the way, I discovered that although this villa is not as big as the one in Sinan, the layout is quite simple and elegant. If Sinan’s Yang Mansion looks like a large mansion where rich people live, then this one
The place is a bit like the residence of a powerful official.
Yun Qi was now a little nervous at the thought of entering the palace to meet the prince tomorrow. He had been to the Forbidden City in Beijing before, and it was really majestic. The Forbidden City's unique 999 and a half rooms, high walls with red paint, and huge blue bricks,
Pavilions, towers, pavilions, etc., the royal domineering power shows the splendor of overlooking all living beings. Presumably, the palace in the southern country is not too generous. When talking about the emperor, the supreme real dragon emperor, the first thing that people think of must be the harem, which has been done every time in the past dynasties.
Your Majesty, there will be three thousand beauties in the harem, singing and singing every night. But Yun Qixin thought: I wonder if I can see those concubines who are rumored to have unparalleled looks and enchanting figures after entering the palace.
With these thoughts, Yun Qi lay on the bed and fell asleep.
Early the next morning, before dawn, which was around four or five o'clock in modern time, Yun Qi, who had only slept for three or four hours, was woken up by his servants.
"Ah!" A heavy yawn came out. Yun Qi squinted his half-opened eyes with a tired look on his face. He couldn't figure out why officials in this era had to go to court so early. Didn't the emperor need to rest?
Huh? Since he didn't sleep enough to wake up naturally, Yun Qi, who got into the carriage with Yang Guan after washing and tidying up, was now dozing off in the carriage, but Yang Ziting, who was over fifty years old, was full of energy.
Not long after, they arrived at the entrance of the palace, and the sky was already bright. The palace guards knew that this was Yang Ziting's carriage, and after a salute, they let him in. At this time, Yun Qi was still sleeping and returning to his cage, and had just dreamed that Han Xueyan finally agreed to be with him.
They were dating, and before she could take a sip of excitement on that beautiful face, she was kicked awake by Yang Ziting.
"We're almost at the palace. Pay attention to your appearance. I'm going to court soon, so you can wait for me in the carriage. After the court is over, I will take you to see His Highness the Crown Prince." After saying that, he was about to get out of the car, but suddenly he thought of something.
, turned around and warned again: "Remember, you are sitting in the car and you are not allowed to run around at will. If something goes wrong and you are caught and beheaded, I can't save you." After saying that, he ignored Yun, who had his mouth wide open.
Seven, get out of the carriage.
Going out through the curtains on the car, Yun Qi found that there were many carriages of different sizes parked here. They should all be ministers who were coming to court. Some officials were wearing official clothes that they did not know how to rank.
Three or five people formed a group, talking and walking towards the main hall.
Do you just leave me in the car like this? I don’t know when you will go to court. If you had known this, you might as well let me sleep more. Thinking of this, Yun Qi remembered that Yang Ziting asked him not to run around just now.
I was too lazy to move, so I simply lay down in a comfortable position with no one in the car, and continued to look for the beauty of my dreams.
In the main hall, with the eunuch's sharp and strange sound of "Going to court", the Southern Emperor Zhu Zidao was wearing a golden dragon robe. Although he was over fifty, his steps still showed majesty. When Zhu Zidao was supported by the eunuch
, sitting on the dragon chair, the eunuch shouted to the ministers again: "Exercise the ceremony!"
"Your Majesty, may you be blessed and well!" The ministers knelt down and shouted respectfully.
Zhu Zidao glanced at the Wu ministers and said: "All the ministers are in peace."
The ministers all said in unison: "Thank you, Your Majesty, and long blessings to Your Majesty!"
What follows is a scene that often appears in TV dramas. Zhu Zidao signaled to the ministers that they could present their memorials, and those ministers stood up one by one. They all talked about trivial things, but they were still able to say them vividly. When Zhu Zidao heard this, he felt
With a big head, he frowned and quickly stopped the minister from speaking: "You can just hand over the memorial for these matters. Eunuch Lu will give it to the prince later and let him read it."
"I obey the order!" The ministers agreed.
Zhu Zi glanced at the ministers. When he glanced at Yang Ziting, he suddenly thought of something and asked, "Taifu Yang."
"I'm here!" Yang Ziting quickly saluted with a ruler and stood out of the queue.
"Didn't the prince ask you to bring someone who contributed cigarettes last time? Did you bring him?"
"Your Majesty, we have brought him here." Yang Ziting replied.
"Oh? Where is he?" Zhu Zidao became interested. Now he really regarded cigarettes as a collection of rare treasures. At first, he could even hand one to those who were shameless to ask for it.
Prince, he didn't feel the situation was serious until he smoked about a small amount of stock. From then on, he tried his best to restrain himself and only lit one when he was most tired during the day.
The feeling made him unable to forget it for a long time. Now that the holder of the cigarette had arrived, he naturally wanted to see who could possess such a rare thing.
Yang Ziting said again: "Your Majesty, this person is in my carriage outside."
When Zhu Zidao heard this, he turned to the eunuch next to him and said, "Go and bring this person to me."
"Yes! Your Majesty!" It was the same eunuch with the strange and emphatic voice. He bowed and walked out of the palace with small steps and twisting his waist. When several generals couldn't help but feel a chill, they quickly turned their heads away.
Don't dare to do it again, otherwise I'm afraid I'll vomit out the food I ate the night before.
Yun Qi lay in the carriage and finally fell asleep. She just dreamed that she was back in the Yang Mansion, but before what was about to happen, she was woken up again.
"You have thick hairy legs, you didn't catch me sleeping!" It's no wonder that Yun Qi cursed loudly. He was woken up three times today, but he was very sleepy. Each time, he was in great pain and became sick from overwork.
The anger naturally came up in a flash.
The eunuch seemed to be used to such battles and was not angry, but his tone was a bit unkind. He poked the tip of Yun Qi's nose with his orchid finger, and said in a coquettish voice: "You are the person brought by Master Yang, right? Boy.
! Your Majesty invites you!" After saying that, he ignored Yun Qi's shocked expression and took a few steps back, leaving room for Yun Qi to get out of the car.
"Emperor?...Shouldn't he be the prince?...How did he become the emperor?...Is it really the emperor who called me?" Yun Qi couldn't believe it and confirmed it repeatedly.
The eunuch glanced at him and said disdainfully: "How can we still deceive you? Come on and follow us." After saying that, he turned around and walked back, signaling Yun Qi to follow.
"I...vomit!" Yun Qi didn't have the patience of the palace ministers. Looking at the eunuch's walking style, he couldn't help but vomited out all the breakfast he had eaten in the car this morning.
