Zhang Xiaowu really wanted to do something for Laixi, but Laixi was already a young eunuch in the palace, and eunuchs could not have any contact with foreign ministers. His crime was comparable to an affair between a palace maid and a guard, so Zhang Xiaowu just nodded and smiled.
Laixi also realized that he had lost his composure and hurriedly lowered his head and knelt aside to apologize to Emperor Dade.
The kneeling of eunuchs is different from the kneeling of ministers. When eunuchs kneel, they must kneel on both knees and press their bodies to the ground to show that they are the emperor's domestic slaves.
When Emperor Dade saw the pair of comrades-in-arms from Paoze, he was deeply moved by his love for Paoze, and said: "Laixi, get up. You can come to me from now on and be my companion as a eunuch."
Laixi said with great joy: "Thank you Lord for your kindness, long live my emperor."
"Go down and get ready."
"yes."
The emperor's words moved Laixi deeply, but Laixi also didn't understand why the emperor asked him to be his companion eunuch. The so-called companion eunuch is the little eunuch who accompanies the emperor and serves the emperor. The emperor naturally has the most companions.
There are more than a hundred people, but the quota of more than one hundred people is the most difficult to obtain in the world. Laixi got this position without any effort, which immediately aroused the jealousy of the eunuchs around him. The eunuchs were all eunuchs, and their physical insufficiency caused their psychology to be distorted.
, jealousy and revenge are far beyond normal people, Laixi was suddenly promoted, which can be said to have aroused public anger, and may not yield good results in the future.
Zhang Xiaowu naturally didn't know these tortuous truths. He had never lived in the palace, nor had he ever been an eunuch. He just felt that Laixi had been promoted by the emperor, and he was happy for him.
Emperor Dade smiled and said: "He said that your master's name is Xiaoyaozi, and he must be a master of the world. Although you said that you only learned his wine-making skills, I see that you are both civilized and military, and you can even compose a song "The General Returns"
, He is really the apprentice of a master from this world. It’s a pity that I can’t see this person, regret, regret.”
Zhang Xiaowu was sweating on his forehead, thinking that if the emperor wanted to find out a person's information, he could really find out eight generations of his ancestors. In this era, it is really not easy to be so well-informed, he admitted.
I underestimated Jin Yiwei before, but it seems that Jin Yiwei does have a skill.
Seeing the emperor talking about his "master", Zhang Xiaowu could only bite the bullet and said: "My master is just a wanderer. After teaching me, he disappeared. I searched for several years and couldn't find him. I think he was unwilling."
If you are disturbed by the world, you may like to live a leisurely and carefree life, so the master calls himself Xiaoyaozi."
The Great Virtue Emperor looked leisurely and yearned, and said: "Let's do it this way. During these few days in the capital, you will practice "Yi Jin Jing" with me every day until you have completely taught me. Since you want to keep teaching me, I will grant you the title of "Yi Jin Jing".
A man who goes in and out of the imperial palace, and a guard with a sword in front of me, is by my side."
The eunuchs and maids around were all stunned. What an important official the emperor was conferring. He was a guard with a sword in front of the emperor. Before, there was only one guard with a sword in front of the emperor, and that was Li Canglan, the lieutenant general of the Royal Forest Army. The second one was a guard with a sword in front of the emperor.
The guard turned out to be the ghost general Zhang Xiaowu - the emperor trusted him too much, and this son would definitely become an important minister of the imperial court in the future.
Zhang Xiaowu was stunned for a moment, then he knelt down and saluted: "Thank you for your trust, Your Majesty. I am determined to go through fire and water without hesitation."
Emperor Dade was very happy, but maybe he was too happy. He suddenly coughed, and the eunuchs hurriedly gave him medicine. After Emperor Dade took the medicine, his body gradually returned to normal, and he laughed at himself: "I am the emperor.
, His body is so weak that he is simply laughed at by his ministers."
Zhang Xiaowu said: "Your Majesty works hard day and night for the country, so much that he hurts his body. Have you ever heard of a saying that the body is the capital of the future? If the body is not good, there will be no future. So your Majesty still needs to rest more and exercise more.
, only by recovering your body can you govern the country."
The Great Virtue Emperor smiled and said: "That's right, that's right." He was indeed a little tired, so he said: "Ghost General, follow me to the palace, you stay outside, I want to have a good sleep."
"Here."
The eunuchs and maids were once again shocked by this sentence. The emperor's palace was not a place that ordinary people could approach. Even Li Canglan had never been to the emperor's palace. The emperor favored his concubines in the palace, so this place was extremely quiet and private.
Except for the emperor, no man could enter the palace, and even the imperial guards had to stand outside the palace.
The emperor asked Zhang Xiaowu to guard the palace. It was obvious that he was a saint, and he also announced to everyone in disguise that Zhang Xiaowu was his confidant. Zhang Xiaowu did not think of this for the time being, so he followed the palace ladies and eunuchs to the emperor's palace, and
Consciously guard the door.
Perhaps he was too tired, so the Emperor lay down on the bed and fell asleep. It seemed that he had never slept so sweetly and at ease in so many days.
Zhang Xiaowu stood guard outside the palace door, thinking a lot in his mind. He guessed that the emperor was so kind to him because Li Canglan found him yesterday, and Li Canglan represented Du Shanbo, so that Emperor Dade thought that Du Shanbo wanted to drag him away.
Emperor Dade favored Zhang Xiaowu and forced Zhang Xiaowu to surrender to the emperor. Emperor Dade also took the opportunity to announce to everyone that the ghost general Zhang Xiaowu was my loyal minister.
Zhang Xiaowu then thought about the powerful factions in the court. Du Shanbo was naturally the largest, but Zhang Kuan, the left prime minister, should not be underestimated, especially because he could influence the appointment of the new emperor. Wang Cheng, the right prime minister, seemed to be idle but also had ulterior motives. There was a group of
People obeyed him, but in comparison, the emperor was somewhat weak.
Although Dushanbo is powerful and almost rules the entire empire, Dushanbo has been loyal and loyal for generations, and he will certainly not do anything detrimental to the royal family. Moreover, Dushanbo is now older, and the emperor is less than thirty years old, so the ministers simply cannot
There is no need to think about it. It is just because the emperor fell into the water some time ago, some ministers were undecided, and some ministers asked the emperor to appoint the King of Jin as a royal official.
It was certainly not the Dade Emperor's original intention to appoint the King of Jin as an imperial official. After all, the Dade Emperor had a biological son, Xuanyuan Chenghua. Although he had not yet been appointed as a prince, since the emperor had a son, there was no possibility for the King of Jin to compete for the throne.
Thinking of this, Zhang Xiaowu felt a little pain in his head, not because he drank too much last night, but because of the complicated situation in the court and the partisan strife, which made him very disgusted in his heart. But partisan strife is the eternal theme of the court, as long as there is
When there are hundreds of officials, there are hundreds of thoughts and interests. For the sake of interests, people will inevitably unite to fight with others. From ancient times to the present, there is no dynasty without partisanship in the court. After all, the court is also a human being.
composed of.
"well……"
He raised his head and looked around. He saw the Imperial Guards standing in a row. What was different from him was that the Imperial Guards all wore black scarves. Zhang Xiaowu nodded unconsciously and praised the Imperial Guards for their epidemic prevention measures.
People outside need to pay more attention to the epidemic.
