Ma Ming was stunned when he heard this, and immediately thought of what Zhu Houzhao had asked him to bring to Li Huan.
Ma Ming could only hear Ma Ming laughing and saying: "By the way, sir, when we were leaving, the young master asked me to bring you a message, saying that you will meet soon."
A bright light flashed in Chen Ke's eyes, while Li Huan nodded slightly and said: "Okay, I understand, you go and do the work."
After Ma Ming left, Chen Ke smiled at Li Huan and said, "It seems that I want to congratulate you in advance, Li Huan."
Li Huan smiled and said, "Your Majesty, you are too polite. Maybe we all guessed wrong."
Chen Ke patted Li Huan's shoulder with his big hand and left with a smile.
In Guzi Lane, in a rather quiet courtyard, a figure was busy packing up the clothes hanging outside. Suddenly, he looked up and saw Li Huan pushing in the door. His pretty face couldn't help but reveal a little...
With a look of joy, he stepped forward to take the sword from Li Huan's hand, and brought the prepared water: "Master, wash your hands and get ready to eat."
Li Huan nodded slightly, washed his hands, and sat down to eat with Forsythia. However, it was obvious that Li Huan was a little distracted.
"Is it really that emperor?"
Li Huan had a sense of expectation in his heart. If it was true as Chen Ke had guessed, then it was foreseeable that success in the future would not be a problem.
Li Huan did not have much thought about power before, but as he gradually integrated into this world, Li Huan discovered that if there is no power, then all kinds of injustices may happen, and even if there is no fear of life, he will still survive.
Very frustrated.
Just like the death of his predecessor, Li Xian's death, and even his forced entry into Beijing, in the final analysis it was not because he had no power and could only be manipulated by others.
It can be said that more than a year's experience has made Li Huan's mind grow and change greatly.
"Sir, what are you thinking about?"
Forsythia noticed that Li Huan was a little distracted and couldn't help but said.
Li Huan came to his senses, smiled and said, "It's okay."
The first day, the second day, and the third day passed. Li Huan went to Jinyiwei to report every day as usual, and then took people to inspect the royal hunting grounds. The originally expected reward from the emperor did not arrive for a long time.
On this day, Li Huan arrived at the Jinyiwei Yamen early and happened to meet Chen Ke. Li Huan had been doing his own thing as usual in the past few days without feeling impetuous at all, which greatly impressed Chen Ke.
If he had been in Li Huan's position, he would have been restless, looking forward to the emperor's reward every day.
With a slight cough, Chen Ke nodded to Li Huan and comforted him: "Li Huan, don't be disappointed, I may have guessed wrong..."
Li Huan was about to speak when he suddenly heard the sound of a galloping horse. Both Li Huan and Chen Ke subconsciously looked towards the long street in the distance.
Chen Ke couldn't help but shrink his eyes after just one glance. Those were several fast horses galloping towards him. It was obvious that they were coming towards the Jinyiwei Yamen, especially the figures on the horses who were wearing eunuch costumes. This made Chen Ke look towards
Li Huan looked over.
Li Huan also saw the eunuchs rushing towards him, and he had the same suspicion as Chen Ke, and he couldn't help but feel a bit of expectation in his heart.
I saw the eunuchs dismounting from their horses. The leader had a smile on his face, giving people the impression of a good old man, while the other eunuchs followed him respectfully.
When Chen Ke saw this, he recognized the person's identity at a glance. He quickly stepped forward and saluted respectfully: "Your Majesty, Chen Ke, has met Superintendent Gu!"
It turns out that this person is Gu Dayong, one of the Eight Tigers.
Li Huan, along with Chen Ke, bowed his hands to Gu Dayong, and at the same time secretly looked at Gu Dayong. It looked like Gu Dayong was about forty years old, tall, with a fair face and a good appearance. If he didn't know his identity, he would be very
It is difficult to associate it with eunuchs.
Gu Dayong glanced at Chen Ke and strode into the Jinyiwei Yamen. At the same time, he said: "We have received orders from His Majesty and urgently summon Li Huan from one hundred Jinyiwei households to come to the palace to see him. Where is Li Huan? Call him quickly.
Let’s go back to the palace and recover!”
Li Huan let out a long breath after hearing this. When Chen Ke's eyes fell on him, he bowed his hands to Gu Dayong in a neither humble nor overbearing manner and said: "Li Huan, a member of the Jin Yi Guards family, has met my father-in-law."
Gu Dayong couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. You must know that he didn't take Li Huan to heart before, and didn't even take a second look. However, he didn't expect that the other person turned out to be the person he was looking for on this trip.
Speaking of which, Gu Dayong really had a sense of expectation for Li Huan. The news of Zhu Houzhao's leaving the palace could not be hidden from others, but it could not be hidden from the people around Zhu Houzhao, who were the regular servants. When they heard that Zhu Houzhao was assassinated along with Liu Jin,
Gu Da was so frightened after using several people.
Naturally, he was extremely curious about Li Huan, who saved Zhu Houzhao. Of course, another reason was that Li Huan beat Liu Jin, which made Gu Dayong even more curious about what kind of person Li Huan was.
Even when Zhu Houzhao was the prince, those who served him were full of competition. Especially he and Liu Jin were the most favored by Zhu Houzhao. The fight between the two became more intense as Zhu Houzhao ascended the throne and became the emperor.
sharp.
It can be imagined that when Gu Dayong learned that his old rival Liu Jin had been beaten violently, the feeling was really difficult to express in words. Therefore, when he learned that Zhu Houzhao was going to summon Li Huan, Gu Dayong immediately
I took the initiative to take this job because I wanted to see Li Huan as soon as possible.
At this moment, looking at Li Huan in front of him, who was dressed in Jin Yiwei Baihu costume, Gu Da couldn't help but look at him with a strange look.
After looking Li Huan up and down, Gu Dayong suddenly said to Li Huan in an extremely affectionate manner: "Are you Li Huan? Our family heard that you gave Liu Jin a severe beating.
…”
Li Huan didn't expect that Gu Dayong would directly mention the fact that he beat Liu Jin when he opened his mouth. His face suddenly stiffened, he raised his hands and said with a bitter smile: "I am a bit impatient, and my impulsive actions made my father-in-law laugh!"
Gu Dayong laughed loudly and looked at Li Huan with an appreciative look: "If you want to tell me, that old guy Liu Jin deserves to be beaten. He actually wants to take you as his adopted son. He doesn't even know what he is."
goods……"
Li Huan was speechless. Since Gu Dayong didn't deal with Liu Jin, he shouldn't have mentioned the matter between him and Liu Jin in front of so many people. He was sure that the conversation between him and Gu Dayong today would be exact.
If it reaches Liu Jin's ears, isn't this causing trouble for herself?
Seeing Li Huan's reaction, Gu Da said with a smile on his lips: "Brother Li Huan, your Majesty has summoned you, please follow me into the palace!"
Li Huan nodded slightly, turned around and cupped his hands towards Chen Ke: "Sir..."
Chen Ke smiled and said: "I will send someone else to take over the inspection for you. You should go and see His Majesty as soon as possible!"
Running all the way, it didn't take long before they arrived in front of the palace gate. Although Gu Dayong was leading him, he still checked it out and then took off the sword he was wearing. This was the first time Li Huan stepped into the core of the Ming Empire.
Important place, the Forbidden City.
After entering the Forbidden City, Li Huan just looked around calmly along the way. He didn't feel any restraint, let alone panic or nervousness.
Not to mention anything else, Gu Dayong, who had been paying attention to the changes in Li Huan's expression, was secretly appreciative of his indifference.
Gu Dayong said to Li Huan with a smile on his face: "Brother Li Huan, do you know why His Majesty summoned you today?"
When Li Huan heard this, he glanced at Gu Dayong sideways and said, "Li Huan is stupid, please give me some advice from my father-in-law!"
Gu Dayong said with a smile: "Brother, you have been instrumental in rescuing the enemy a few days ago. His Majesty has been talking about you these days, asking us for our opinions and considering how to reward you. I summoned you today. As expected,
Your Majesty has already made a decision, so our family will first congratulate you, little brother."
Li Huan smiled and shook his head and said: "My father-in-law was just joking. Li didn't know that person was His Majesty that day, and he never thought about what benefits he would get afterwards. Otherwise, he wouldn't have asked his subordinates to send His Majesty back to Beijing, but would have done it himself.
, do you think this is true!"
At this moment, a voice suddenly came and said: "Okay, that's good. What I like is the innocent heart of the Qing family."
