Emperor's Trophy

Yun Zhen and his party entered the palace gate. Ding Dai had already guarded the palace gate, followed by several sedan chairs. As soon as he saw Yun Zhen coming in, he came up with a smile and pulled his horse's head: "Master Hou is back? Master Hou can go all the way." Thank you for your hard work, the emperor is thinking of you, the Hall of Supreme Harmony is preparing for the reception banquet, and the emperor will welcome you in person."

Yun Zhen thought that this was the emperor's acceptance of the brothers and sisters of the Tan family, and his heart became more and more unhappy, so he just smiled and shouted: "Grandpa Ding, let me give the emperor's order first."

Ding Dai laughed and said, "Your Majesty has done a beautiful job this time. The Emperor is very happy. He kept praising him. He even said that he would give you face by holding a special banquet."

Yun Zhen said sourly: "The emperor is here to welcome the young masters of Cheng Enbo's mansion. They first went to the house given by the emperor to settle down, and they will enter the palace for a banquet at night."

Ding Dai's mouth curled up slightly: "How can it be? They are thanks to you. The emperor said that you have handled the case beautifully this time, so I have to give you some face. Brother Cheng Enbo, shouldn't it be appropriate to thank you? ? The emperor asked them to carry the sedan chair for you."

Gao Xin couldn't help laughing at the side: "It's almost old man Ding, you can coax the dead back to life."

Yun Zhen also laughed, although the sadness in his heart was still there, but he really had to say that Eunuch Ding was really first-class in his kindness and kindness, no wonder the emperor hadn't changed the head of the imperial court for so many years.

Ding Dai smiled and said: "You go in first to renew the decree. I will ask Qingsong Moju and the others to prepare Yutang Pond. After a while, they will wash and change their clothes before going to the banquet."

Yun Zhen agreed, got off his horse, went in with Gao Xin, waited in the ear room for a while, and sure enough the emperor knew they were coming and passed them on.

Ji Bingyuan saw Yun Zhen striding in from the outside, the outside sun was covering his shoulders, his figure was tall and straight, his shoulders were broad and his legs were long, he simply saluted a general, his eyes were as bright as stars, and he stood Saluting side by side, Gao Xinbi, who was considered tall and handsome, fell into the mud. He secretly sighed in his heart that everyone is not blind. Such a handsome and good boy in Yushu Linfeng, who is a nobleman, has no elders to control his family. A good family is a good family.

Old Madam Qu is just the beginning, and most of the others have no connections. After all, the Yun Mansion doesn't have any female relatives. Ji Xianger has always been in the military camp, and he doesn't often go out for banquets. It's hard for others to find out.

But now that he is working in Dali Temple, he will soon be the brother and father of various ladies. He inquired through the officials and colleagues of Dali Temple.

By then, this heartless child won't be annoyed, yelling that he is a good Longyang, right?Too likely.

He was aggrieved for a while, and waved them up: "Come back? The case was handled well this time. Gao Xin, tell me."

Gao Xin saw that there was no one around, so he recounted the whole story, and said with a smile: "This time, thanks to Master Hou's insight, he asked people to ask about theaters, prostitutes and other places, so they found clues... It's just that my little subordinate I acted carelessly and frightened Miss Tan when I dealt with the thieves, I ask the emperor to punish me."

Ji Bingyuan didn't take it seriously: "It's nothing, I'll reward you with something later to calm the shock, it's good to keep your boudoir reputation, it's because they acted carelessly, and let you run so hard once, and you have an unjust reputation for indiscriminate killing .Auspicious child? Do you feel wronged?"

Yun Zhen smiled: "I'm not wronged, I should serve the emperor." He was full of enthusiasm: "This time, thanks to the clue provided by a martial artist I met in the theater before, I have promised him to take off the music for him, He likes traveling all over the world, I would like to invite him to be a bodyguard in the Yangwei Bodyguard Bureau, as a reward for his contribution this time, Your Majesty, do you think it is okay?"

Ji Bingyuan looked at him, and the young Shaoqing of Dali Temple raised his eyes to look at him, his eyes were bright and magnanimous, heartless - there was no fear, dodge, or anxiety of being peeped into his secret by the victim.

The enthusiasm that belongs to young people seems to be as direct, bright, and scorching as the sun outside. Even the shade in this high and deep hall can't affect the vitality that completely belongs to youth.

A trace of doubt flashed across Ji Bingyuan's heart, and he put the booklet back on the desk: "You can do this little thing." He suddenly felt a little sad, no wonder he heard the elders say that he can feel himself more when he doesn't see the junior grow up so fast. of aging.

Isn't he getting old, who has been critiquing papers day after day in this great hall?Be like those ebony tablets in the ancestral temple, old, shady, and don't want to change.

His auspicious son was growing at a rapid rate, and he couldn't understand what he was thinking at the beginning.

Yun Zhen thanked him with a smile, and saw that the servants in the corridor outside led the minister to wait in the corridor, and hurriedly said: "Is the emperor still going to discuss matters? The minister and Brother Gao go down first."

Ji Bingyuan said: "Go down and wash up, the road is full of dust, let's take a rest first."

Yun Zhen smiled and walked out with his hands in his sleeves, and saw Zhang Yan standing in the corridor. Zhang Yan saw him beckoning him to come over, and asked him quietly: "I got a secret report a while ago, and there have been a lot of people coming to the Siyi Association Hall recently." Emperor He Qianqiu's envoys, including Bei Qi's envoy, were inquiring about the origin of a blue-eyed guard in Longxiang camp a few days ago."

Yun Zhen was stunned, and Zhang Yan said: "The amazing thing is, I knew it was recommended by your family as soon as I inquired about it, but the king of Hejian County was in charge there, and his injury was almost healed, so he went to Siyi They were working in the same embassy, ​​and when they heard about this, they held down the embassy’s translator and did not allow the embassy’s translators to investigate for them. Of course, the reason was fair and honest, saying that they were the emperor’s close servants, and that it involved His Majesty’s safety, so they should not be leaked to foreigners.”

"I thought it was interesting, so I asked someone to check your Hu'er's roots. He was sold as a prisoner of war with his mother. His mother should be a bit pretty, and she followed a young general in a border town as a half-concubine. He was a slave, but soon died of illness. He was sold as a military slave. Just when you wanted to recruit military slaves, you took him into the mansion. Because there were many military slaves in that group, only his mother was roughly identified. It's called Pearl. There are many ordinary women in Beiqi who don't have surnames, so I guess Yun Jiangning's previous name should be randomly given to him by his master—I can't guarantee that you, Hu'er's righteous son, are Bei Qina. What kind of nobleman's own son is there?"

Yun Zhen thought for a while and said: "I'll ask him later, thank you, Mr. Zhang, for taking care of me." He thanked Zhang Yan for leaving, but Zhang Yan said again: "There is one more thing I want to tell you. There was a literary meeting held at home, and I was specially invited, but Old Madam Qu actually invited me in. He only talked about playing chess, and after inquiring about you carefully, he thought he would like to promise you his granddaughter. I have heard a little about his granddaughter, she has a very good talent and name, and her temperament is also shrewd. Judging from her brother's appearance, she is not bad in person. You, that is a wonderful marriage."

He looked him up again and said: "Although you have improved a bit now, the thing that kicked and injured the Hejian County King a few days ago was really too reckless, and the old master still doesn't think you are willing to marry his granddaughter to you. This is a great blessing for you. I really want to burn a few pillars of high incense for your mother, and bless you so that nothing will happen to you these days."

Yun Zhen was greatly surprised: "What? I'm like this, I can't!" Nothing like this happened in the previous two lives!That's right, I didn't have a good reputation in my previous two lives... This is really... I have to make some troubles, let Old Madam Qu give up by himself.He thought in his heart... Otherwise, why not go to Nanfeng Hall to have fun?

Zhang Yan saw that his expression seemed to be playing tricks, and he poked him on the shoulder: "I just heard that Old Madam Qu just came out of the palace, and I guess the emperor will definitely agree, that is the emperor's teacher! Don't think about messing around and ruining this marriage! This is a big deal! You can't find such a good marriage in Manjing. Mrs. Qu is a very good person and will not restrain you. The male college is the married female college When you get married, don't just think about playing, delay this matter, do you hear? If you really ruin this marriage, you don't need me to do it, the emperor can beat your ass to pieces!"

Yun Zhen grinned, stuck out his tongue, and ran back along the road. Zhang Yan knew that he didn't care, stomped his feet, snorted, and when he saw Ding Dai coming out to wave, he knew it was his turn. By himself, he quickly walked in small steps.

The night began to fall, the Hall of Supreme Harmony was still brightly lit, and there were many palace people.

The brothers and sisters of the Tan family got out of the car, and entered the Hall of Supreme Harmony under the guidance of the servants, and found that the palace servants were standing around the Hall of Supreme Harmony, and the servants were serving dishes, but they were so quiet that they didn't even make a sound of the dishes.

Someone in the palace told them: "The emperor said that it is a family banquet, and none of them are outsiders. Therefore, there is no need for the ladies of the Tan family to set up another banquet. Please invite a few young ladies and gentlemen to the table first, and the emperor will come over after discussing matters."

Family dinner!This means not treating them as outsiders!Tan Wenwei, Tan Wenbao and Tan Zhen felt the intimacy here, overjoyed, they looked at each other and smiled, and sat down, because they were afraid of being criticized by the palace people for their demeanor, they sat upright all the time, staring at each other. Do not squint.

They had just entered Beijing when they heard that the emperor was going to host a banquet at the Hall of Supreme Harmony tonight. They were all overjoyed. When they arrived at the gifted house, they rushed to wash and change their clothes. The three of them got together again and spent a round in front of the emperor , What should be said, what should not be said, the previous suspicions have been thrown aside.

After discussing for a long time, a few important things were agreed upon. One is to be cautious in words and deeds, the emperor must be grateful for his kindness, and he must not have the slightest dissatisfaction with Zhao Xinhou and Gao Commander in front of the emperor, be modest and cautious is first class;

The second is the situation in the uncle's house. It is important to talk about the grandfather who is old, weak and sick. The Queen Mother looks very much like her;

The third point is that the emperor will probably ask them about their knowledge and talent, which is very important, but fortunately they have already asked the gentlemen to make a lot of suggestions at home, and they know it by heart. When the time comes, Zhen Zhen can play a piano.

After the three of them made an agreement, they looked at the time before entering the palace in a car. All the way, they saw the palace gate was deep, and the gates were checked over and over again. They changed carriages, sedan chairs, shoulders, and walked again. It took a long time to get to the place.

After sitting down for a short time, they only ate a few pieces of snacks because of the banquet to be given in the evening, and they felt hungry in a short time.

I saw all the servants standing there, looking at their noses, noses and hearts, motionless like statues, they didn't dare to ask, they could only sit, after a while a servant came over and said: "The emperor has finished the discussion, go inside to change The clothes are gone, and I will come with Marquis Zhaoxin in a while, please wait a little longer."

The three brothers and sisters quickly responded with a smile, looked at each other, and felt that this Marquis Zhaoxin could come and go freely in the palace and walk with the emperor. The emperor showed his traces in front of him, if he took the eye drops first, it would be terrible.

But he said that Yunzhen had soaked in Yutang Pond, poured the red wine by the pool with one hand, and drank it by himself, thinking about Mr. Zhang's words just now.I don't know why Ji Huaisu stopped the people from the Beiqi tribe to inquire about Jiang Ning. Yun Jiangning's appearance is indeed quite special... In the previous life, I really didn't remember much, but Ji Huaisu, is it really for the safety of the emperor?

Let's talk about Miss Tan's being robbed. If Ji Huaisu did it, then he is really unscrupulous and has a certain heart. If he can find out the root cause, the emperor will definitely hate him.But I don't know why he didn't choose such a good marriage.

Finally, thinking about the marriage of Taifu Qu that Zhang Yan mentioned, he secretly thought that it was not good, the emperor would not really agree to it, would he?That's really not a marriage, it's an enmity. When the time comes to hurt Miss Qu's family, Mrs. Qu will definitely peel off her own skin.No, no, the emperor knows that he is a good Longyang, so he won't respond.

Otherwise, leave Bai Yuqi in the Hou's mansion for a while, and let everyone spread the word outside, saying that he is supporting actors, raising male pets, etc. Anyway, he doesn't have a good reputation. Find yourself.

He was thinking about it, he was bored when he saw those idiots from the Tan family, but when he entered the palace, Mr. Zhang added a few fires and added a few more troubles, and unknowingly drank the whole bottle of wine Exhausted, drunk, soaked in the pool and fell asleep.

When Ji Bingyuan came in, he rested his long arms on the back of the wooden frame carelessly, and was soundly asleep with his eyes closed. In the rippling water, his strong body and long legs could be seen under the water. Ji Bingyuan was angry and funny, but he looked at him Sliding down slowly, she was about to slip into the pool water. Afraid that he would choke on the water, she hurriedly stepped forward and gave him a hand. Yun Zhen opened his eyes, looked at him in a daze, and then smiled: "Your Majesty... ..."

Tongues were all wide open, and a scent of wine enveloped him, Ji Bingyuan couldn't help laughing: "That's all right, all right, you're already drunk before the feast is given."

Yun Zhen giggled: "The emperor is not the one who catches the wind anyway... I, I can eat it every day, as for the reception banquet at Uncle Chengen's house..." He turned over and wanted to get up, but Ji Bingyuan fell Watching him staggering and sliding by the pool a few times, he couldn't help but smile and took his arm and pulled him up: "I'm giving you face."

Yun Zhen said: "He... Who in Hejing doesn't know that the emperor favors me, it's not bad this time... the emperor, let's go to the Hall of Supreme Harmony, I'll take a rest, sober up before going, or I will embarrass the emperor..." He Standing dripping with water, he just smiled at Ji Bingyuan.

He still knew it was embarrassing, and he couldn't speak clearly, but he seemed to understand in his heart. Ji Bingyuan couldn't help laughing. Ji Bingyuan took the big cloth towel handed over by the palace man and wiped the water on him: "Gao Xin said you don't think they don't Understand, so you don't like being with them?"

Yun Zhen looked at him sourly: "I, I am jealous."

envy?

Ji Bingyuan frowned, seeing that Yun Zhen didn't wear any clothes, he just wrapped himself in a cloth towel, and then he got into the big couch and pulled the quilt: "Your Majesty... I really drank a little too much, Your Majesty forgives me, I will sleep for a while before going over...don't wait for me..." He mumbled, his whole face was red and hot, and he couldn't open his eyelids from sleepiness.

Sitting on the side of the couch, Ji Bingyuan looked down at his blushing face: "It's been said that you don't drink much, and you still drink like this—what are you jealous of?"

Yun Zhen said: "Hehe..." He was vague and didn't know what to say: "The emperor will not spoil me in the future, and spoiled them... Then Miss Tan, what are you talking about about the Queen Mother...she wants to be a queen... ..."

Want to be queen?Did this child think that Tan Zhen came to Beijing to be the queen?Are you jealous?Eat vinegar all the way?That's why he brought Bai Yuqi out and talked about it, so he was still jealous?

Ji Bingyuan suddenly didn't know what was going on in her heart.

He reached out and touched Yunzhen's forehead, staring at him, thinking in his heart, refusing to do what he wants, evil love is ominous, the ancients can still make love with each other, so what if this child wants to give it to him?

He couldn't bear to live up to such a pure and precious heart.

He touched the child's soft and rosy lips from the steam: "I know what you want."

The author has something to say: Tan Jiasan sits in the hall of Supreme Harmony with hunger in his stomach... Why isn't the emperor coming?
