The old man in the imperial city

Yinzhen really feels that he has lived enough. Although being an emperor can move the world with one word and one word, it is very fulfilling, but always watching his beloved younger brothers walk ahead of him one by one, the pain of beating his heart is too much. many.

During the Yongzheng Dynasty, it was not that his hands were not stained with the blood of his son and the tears of his wife and concubine.The death of Honghui, Fuhui and Lao Shisan was the saddest moment in his life, but all this was no match for the years after Shunzhi Chao witnessed Lao Ba and him across the wall.

What's it like watching him step by step towards a dead end?Whoever asked him to taste it again, whose table would he overturn!

"Long live, it's time to get up." There was a soft reminder from outside the dark tent.

Yinzhen was startled, he is not dead yet?

Why does this voice sound familiar?

As a result, there were rumors in the harem that day that the emperor lost his temper when he got up early, and even lifted a table in the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

Poor Zhang Tingyu was so old that he was summoned to the Hall of Mental Cultivation. He hadn't kowtowed his head, and just halfway through his sleeves, he was interrupted by the emperor's rough voice: "Stop kneeling, why hasn't the Baoding booklet been handed over yet?" Come up, have you urged me yet?"

Zhang Tingyu couldn't figure it out, the emperor didn't say that there was any important paper waiting to be handed over from Baoding, so he carefully considered: "The emperor is referring to the matter of Seth Hei?"

I heard that as soon as the gate of the palace opened today, the emperor issued an urgent order to send most of the imperial hospitals to the clan mansion.The only one who has anything to do with that master is Baoding, right?

The emperor was obviously suffocated, as if he had confirmed the name after some recollection, and then hurriedly said: "It's not that he fainted more than ten days ago and suffered from diarrhea, Li Fu's errand is really good, talent Is it dead or alive after being locked up for a few months? Is this how these people try to figure out what they want?"

Zhang Tingyu didn't dare to raise his head, the emperor was clearly venting his anger.Li Fu is a villain who likes to speculate on what he wants, and he didn't practice it in a day. Isn't so many seals from April just to listen to the emperor's words?

The emperor walked back and forth irritablely, while Zhang Tingyu waited below for the emperor to bring out today's topic.

At this time, the chief eunuch Su Peisheng asked softly: "Is the emperor going to pass on the meal?"

The emperor stopped, frowned and said, "It's already this hour? No one from Tai Hospital has answered yet?"

Su Peisheng was forced to bow his head desperately by the emperor's words: "Not yet."

The emperor stayed for a while, and suddenly asked: "What day do you say is today?"

Su Peisheng replied: "The eighth day of the lunar month, the eighth day of September."

The Hall of Mental Cultivation was silent for a moment, only a short time for an ordinary person to take a breath, but Zhang Tingyu clearly felt some kind of coercion coming to his face.

Just when Zhang Tingyu was racking his brains thinking about what else to pay attention to on the eighth day of September, the emperor had already said: "Hengchen, when you go back to run an errand, go through all the papers first, and then press for the Baoding papers. No, directly Prepare a decree for me, so that the prisoner Seth Hei in Baoding is not allowed to abuse the prince, and those who violate it will be punished by the family. After writing, send it out, and write it on the silk with my seal. Don’t wait for me to read it.”

Zhang Tingyu was sweating profusely as he listened to the emperor's self-contradiction, Seth black and the prince's self-contradiction, and he respectfully replied, "Yeah."

Then the emperor turned around and ordered: "Su Peisheng, change clothes, I'm going out of the palace!"

Su Peisheng was not surprised, the emperor was a different person today, he lost his temper inexplicably when he got up in the morning, and when he came back from the court, he didn't approve the papers, and yelled at Zhang Zhongtang before leaving the palace.

This kind of doubt developed to a new level when he waited on the emperor to sit on the sedan chair and asked "where does the emperor plan to go to observe the people's sentiments".Because the emperor ordered impatiently: "Go to the clan's mansion and imprison the eighth master."

Su Peisheng asked people to carry the sedan chair to the clan's mansion, and the emperor went straight into the inner hall like burning his robes, and Yun Li, who was in charge of the clan's mansion, rushed out to greet him on his knees.Yinzhen didn't bother to talk to him, and asked directly: "Where's the old man? Where's the imperial doctor I sent today? Why don't they go back and forth after finishing their errands?"

It's not that Yunli has never seen the emperor swearing in anger. Back then, when Aqina was in power, he scolded a little for two days and cursed a lot for three days, but it was always scarier when things happened to him. So he replied with a trembling voice: "Your Majesty, Aqina is imprisoned in the high wall, and it is inconvenient for the imperial doctor to get in and out. Half an hour ahead, find someone to open one side of the wall, and the imperial doctor is treating right now."

The emperor was furious when he heard this: "Who told you to build a high wall? Who allowed you to do this?"

Yunli was dumbfounded, this seems to be a routine, right?

Chu Ying, the eldest son of Emperor Taizu, Erbeile Amin, and even Shuerhaqi, the earliest prince of Heshuozhuang, including Sethhei who is far away in Baoding, are all treated like this, building a high wall It means "forever sleepy, never seeing the sun".

Therefore, Yun Li could only bite the bullet and answer: "Replying to the emperor, this is following the old rules."

Yinzhen continued to run wild: "What is the old rule? Why didn't I know? When Prince Li was imprisoned in Shangsi Courtyard and Xian'an Palace, no one dared to build brick walls! You have all eaten tiger guts?!"

Yun Li trembled and couldn't stop pleading guilty, of course he felt very slanderous in his heart: Can the second elder brother be compared to the emperor's exam, and the starling is to the emperor you?One was a son who was loved and spoiled with all his heart, and the other was a political enemy who wished to be crushed to death with his own hands.

Of course, the emperor couldn't wait for Yun Li to answer, he had already started to walk inside.Yunli had no choice but to scramble and crawl to keep up.

The emperor stayed in front of the prison in the Clan Mansion for a long time, and there were long blue-gray bricks scattered around in the courtyard, all of which were the prison walls that had just been demolished today.The emperor didn't go in, not because he didn't want to, but because there were too many protesters. The courtyard wall hadn't been demolished yet, and there were knee-high piles left.

Su Peisheng had a sharp eye and quickly asked someone to find a bench. Fortunately, at this time, an imperial physician inside heard the emperor's blessing, and had rolled out with his robes up to plead guilty.No one expected to toss this half a day, and of course they did not expect that the emperor would not even be able to wait for half a day, and came here in person.

The emperor was impatient to listen to all kinds of bullshit about medicine and medicine. He was too familiar with the hospital set. It's a scam, and no one is willing to take responsibility.

So the emperor could only yell out the most effective sentence, if the people inside are dead, you all go to fight for their lives!

These words were like thunder in the ears of Yun Li who arrived afterward. Is the person inside going to survive?A few days ago, the emperor's fourth brother had acted as if he didn't care about the Achinese gangsters, wishing they would die immediately.

But at this moment, Yinzhen heard a very light and slow chuckle in his ears, like a scheming old fox hiding in the depths of the fox's den, baring his teeth and laughing at the helpless hunter.

The emperor frowned: "Who is laughing inside?" No need to ask, I know that no one has the courage except Lao Ba, but this sound reminds me that the person lying here may not be the person I have been thinking about for ten years. people.

Then there was a weak, panting voice from inside: "What is the reason why the weirdo is called to carry out the order of the emperor?"

Yun Li lowered his head and followed behind the emperor, and heard a sigh: Mynah was not like this before he was trapped, and the emperor still doesn't bow his head even though he's here?

The emperor was silent for a while, looking around, this is really not a good place to talk, so he held Liu Shengfang by the neck and asked: "Hold your breath, can you do it by sending him to the palace? Don't let him disappear so cheaply. "

Upon hearing the words, Liu Shengfang quickly said that the ministers and others can try their best.It's just bumpy along the way, so I'm afraid we'll have to take our time.It's very pickled here, Wanzai, why don't you go back to the palace first?I wondered in my heart whether the emperor's last sentence was a bit redundant.

Of course, the emperor could smell the sour smell of summer coming from the hollowed-out wall. He heard that Lao Ba had been suffering from nausea for many days. How could he get better?But he couldn't bear it after all, and ordered the subordinates to send the person here, because I have something to say to him.

An eunuch quickly cleaned the face of the lying person inside, and covered the messy and discolored coat with a clean cloth sheet, then moved the person to the removed door panel and carried him to the hole in the wall.

Yin Zhen looked at the person with prominent cheekbones in front of him a little jealously, but he held back after all.Lao Ba closed his eyes from the beginning to the end, he couldn't tell whether this person was the one who shared thick and thin, and didn't want to show his timidity first.So he just waved his hand.

Su Peisheng stepped forward in a low voice and asked where the emperor planned to place Ba Ye.

The emperor really wanted to directly say to send it to the Hall of Mental Cultivation, but thinking that this seemed to be against the rules, so he changed his name to Shou'an Palace.Su Peisheng thought about it, this palace is shrunk to the northwest corner, and only one wall is needed to isolate it from the West Sixth Palace, and it can be regarded as a prison.So I responded immediately.

When the emperor returned to the inner palace, Zhang Tingyu had already followed quickly when he passed by the Qianqing Gate, and whispered in the emperor's ear, "Your Majesty, the booklet from Baoding has arrived."

The emperor stopped in his tracks, and couldn't wait to return to the Hall of Mental Cultivation: "Present."

After looking at ten lines at a glance, the emperor first let out a sigh of relief. If Lao Jiu is not dead, there is room for things to turn around, which is very good.From the time he opened his eyes to now, he was worried, afraid that Li Fu would mess things up again.Immediately, another order was issued, asking them to raise Seth Hei well and fatten him up and transfer them to the capital, so that he could live.

Zhang Tingyu went down in a daze.

The emperor's face is like that of a milk baby, crying and laughing are not accurate, you lose if you guess.

Su Peisheng, who can best understand the emperor's intentions, understood a little bit, and immediately signaled his apprentice Gao Wuyong with his eyes to properly use the matter of arranging the eighth master, and make the emperor feel that no one treats the prisoner appointed by Yubi harshly.

The emperor had just urged him twice, asking if Yunyu had been sent to the palace, and Prince Yi, who was the Prime Minister Sankushi, handed over a sign with King Guojun, who was also in charge of the household department, to see him.

The emperor met the two absent-mindedly, and King Guojun mentioned the trial of the Jiangsu salt merchants' corruption and collusion case.The emperor couldn't help but look sideways, is this rushing to remind me of the old Eighty One Party's mess?Old Seventeen doesn't seem to have this awareness, so is Old Thirteen behind the guidance?Doing this is somewhat in line with his temperament, so he can correct his course by sounding out his words.

He won't kill Lao Ba, how much he hopes that the person transported back to the palace is Lao Ba who went up and down with him and had children.But what if not?Do you still want to surround him, offer him food and drink, and wait for the day when he can remember like himself?

What if he couldn't remember?What if that old eight never comes again?

Can he tolerate an old eight who is not old eight dangling under his eyelids?

There is also Lao Jiu, let him come here because of Lao Ba's affection back then, I am not a fathead who reneged on his promise.If the old eight was not that old eight, would he accept his love?
