Chapter 519 Goodbye Questions and Answers
Chapter 519 Goodbye Q&A
Although there were so many feelings on the street, Lu Bing's mood gradually improved when he walked in the palace, because no matter the Western soldiers on duty outside the Forbidden City or the eunuchs and palace maids running around in the palace, they all showed joy and were very happy.
The officers and soldiers outside knew that they had participated in this major event successfully, so naturally they would be rewarded with wealth. The eunuchs and palace maids inside knew that the past few years of heartwarming life was about to end, and the days of being proud were coming.
However, this time, it was obvious that the Taoist priests with fairy spirit and Taoism directly lifted up the hem of the Taoist robe and tied it up, holding swords and guns in their hands to guard it. While Lu Bing was halfway, the eunuch of Emperor Jiajing had explained these things to him.
Lu Bing also knew that these Taoist priests were military men drawn from various places. Although the situation is a great success, it can be said that it is the most dangerous time. It is natural to use these people to be on duty within the palace ban.
Emperor Jiajing summoned Lu Bing in the inner study next to Wuying Hall. The eunuch who led the way along the way said without any trouble. Long live this time is really awesome to Mr. Lu. Even General Zhou and General Deng were on duty outside the palace, but they just summoned Mr. Gong to the palace. This is an honor. The future glory and wealth will definitely be better than the past. Seeing the eunuchs around him can curry favor with him, Lu Bing really didn't know what to say.
The furnishings in the inner study were a bit inconsistent. The bookshelf should have been placed with alchemy furnaces and cauldrons, as well as various medicinal materials. The original sandalwood smell in the room turned into a pungent smell. More than a dozen eunuchs and palace maids were busy cleaning up there.
Seeing Lu Bing appear at the door, Eunuch Rui, who was standing behind Jiajing, quickly shouted a few words and dismissed the people. Eunuch Rui moved a stool and sent it to Lu Bing. If it were the past, Lu Bing would have sat down with a big golden sword, but now he said respectfully:
"Long live my emperor."
Just at the door, he was full of postures, and he continued to worship the big gifts, bowed three times and kowtowed nine times, and was fully polite. Jiajing smiled gently there, and the emperor suddenly found that there was not much turmoil in his heart. Whether it was the resentment after being blocked by Lu Bing, or the gratitude for using Lu Bing to stabilize the situation today, he became very calm. What he thought about now was that Lu Bing, who had not seen him for many years, had white hair as his age.
"Sit down and talk!"
The emperor naturally would not say anything apologized. When Lu Bing heard the emperor's words, he quickly bowed and stood up, and said humbly:
"Thank you for giving me a seat."
Then he turned around and said to Eunuch Rui on the side:
"It's a good father-in-law!"
This was because he was sitting down with half of his body, which made Rui Xiaosan, who was worried in his heart, panicked. After all, Rui Xiaosan was also one of the important participants in the local area investigation case. He was always a little worried about Lu Bing, but he did not expect that the mighty and mighty Duke was so humble that day.
Both sides were just facing each other, a little embarrassed, and they didn't know what to say, but they both smiled calmly. At this time, Lu Bing carefully observed the emperor sitting there. After all, the two of them grew up together when they were in the Xingxian Palace, and they were also somewhat in love.
After a closer look, I found that Emperor Jiajing, who was originally quite particular about health preservation, had silver threads faintly appeared on his hair. Although the face was neatly decorated, the fine lines on the corners of his eyes and forehead could not be concealed. It didn't look like he hadn't seen it for a few years, but for more than ten years or decades.
In recent years, Jiajing went from being angry to forbearance, secretly planning, and at the same time he had to make a plain expression in the court. Today, he dared to bet on himself and to control the situation at the unknown horse surveillance. This requires a lot of effort and courage. The emperor, who was originally weak, naturally felt a little tired.
Seeing the emperor's appearance, Lu Bing suddenly couldn't control his feelings. He left his seat and knelt on the ground with a "thump" sound, kowtowed repeatedly, and his voice was filled with some choking and dryness:
"It's all Lu Bing who deserves to die. He was blinded by wealth, so that Long Live can have the current situation. I'm dead... I'm dead!"
In the end, Lu Bing's words were no longer coherent, almost wailing on the ground. Emperor Jiajing looked at the minister kneeling on the ground and kowtowed. The military officer he believed most back then, had always had gentle smiles, and his eyes were a little wet. Lu Bing obviously had his true feelings, otherwise he would not have directly called himself an almost rude name like "Lu Bing", but instead used a more appropriate "sinner" or "sinner" or "sinner".
For a moment, both the monarch and ministers were in love. For men of this age and powerful people in high positions, they were very uncomfortable with the true feelings. The scene became quiet again. After a long time, Emperor Jiajing coughed a few times and said:
"Since it's out, don't worry about the past. Let the king and the minister do our best and give those scholars a look."
After saying that, he ordered Eunuch Rui to help Lu Bing up and to wipe it with a towel. Lu Bing also regretted that he had lost his composure and sat back again. After the little eunuch brought the towel, he wiped his face with tears in a few times. Seeing this, whether it was Eunuch Rui or the eunuch who came in to serve him, he felt that Lu Bing's wealth after he recovered this time was even more powerful than before.
A minister who can be so opposite to the emperor has never seen him for so many years. Even the queen and the imperial concubine smiled faintly and never expressed his feelings like this. These eunuchs had a relatively detailed mind, but they all saw the emperor's actions of wiping the corners of his eyes.
After both sides calmed down, Emperor Jiajing only left Eunuch Rui, an eunuch in the study, and spoke to Lu Bing:
"After all these years of events, I know who I should believe. You and Rui Xiaosan are my confidant people!"
Hearing the emperor say this, the two of them hurriedly kneeled down to thank him. Emperor Jiajing smiled, waved his hand to call them up, and continued to say:
"I want to reopen the Dongchang and Jinyiwei. In recent years, the path of speech has been controlled by the sour and corrupt literati outside. I am like a blind man and a deaf man, and I don't know anything. There are also six ministries and three yamen in the cabinet, including Fengtian Mansion and Wucheng Military and Ma Si. None of them ran away today. How should I deal with it!"
These are almost the core of the entire Ming Empire. All the high-ranking officials, Jiajing has been watching coldly over the years. Almost no one stands on the side of the emperor. They make money for themselves every day under the so-called teachings of saints and righteousness in the world. They are thrown aside from the matter of eating the king's fortune and loyalty to the king. When they think of this, Jiajing is biting with hatred.
After so many years of the Ming Dynasty, no matter how powerful the eunuch or how skilled the powerful minister, the honor, disgrace, success or failure are all in the words and deeds of the emperor. But it was his turn that he was so cowardly. After controlling the situation of the Imperial Horse Prison, he was already scared and sweated. If he had not personally set up a guard of etiquette to suppress the submission, it would be very likely that the Forbidden City would be blocked by the Imperial Horse Prison Battalion and forced himself to issue an order to clear it out. The dignified Ming Dynasty would have to undergo the Ganlu Temple change. It was really unbearable.
When he heard the emperor ask about the treatment of these people, Eunuch Rui, a confidant eunuch who had been by the emperor for many years, was naturally fed up with the cowardly eunuch and couldn't help but scream there:
"What kind of compassion should be given to these rioters without a king or father? Everyone should be beaten to their heads and their whole family will be sent to their families for three thousand miles."
Jiajing turned around and looked at the excited little San Rui coldly. He felt that his obscene eunuch Rui was suddenly bowed and took a few steps back. After this mutiny, Emperor Jiajing truly established his authority. The prosecution case can only be said to be a fool. But this time, it really shows the emperor's forbearance and ruthlessness and authority. Who dares to underestimate such a person? Even if he is by his side, everyone feels the pressure.
"Long live, I don't know what happened over the years, but I have to ask Your Majesty a few questions. Are you brave enough?"
"Long live, can there be any changes in the local governor?"
"After you were banned, except for Shaanxi and Huguang, the governors and governors in other places were changed."
"Long live, are these governors and ministers in the court a party with the ministers of the court?"
"Naturally one party, otherwise how could it be pushed to such a high position by these people!"
"I dare to ask long live. Over the years, can the military pay allocation and promotion of generals be approved by His Majesty?"
"The Cabinet and the Ministry of War have already done their own work, and they will come to the palace."
"Long live, have the Silis and Supervisors criticized the reign of the country's major decisions over the years?"
"These sour Dings are said to be a disaster for eunuchs who interfere in politics and the country. The Silijian has been ungrateful for many years."
Having said that, whether it was Emperor Jiajing or Eunuch Rui, the joy after the success of the mutiny had disappeared, and turned into seriousness and depression. Lu Bing left the chair with a solemn expression, knelt on the ground, walked a few steps, and said anxiously there:
"Long live, and today's world may not be long live. Although today's affairs are accomplished, they are just controlling the capital. The road ahead is like a deep abyss, extremely dangerous. If you are not careful, your Majesty and your ministers will be crushed to pieces and will never be restored!"
After saying this, Emperor Jiajing was finally moved and suddenly stood up from the chair, rubbed his hands together but didn't know what to say, and asked in a dry voice:
"I……"
