Northeast of the imperial city, across the canal, there is a Jiuqufang.
Jiuqufang, which is about two hundred and twenty miles long and wide, is not classified as Haojingfang City, but is under the direct control of the Shaofu. It is a forest garden privately owned by the royal family.
Jiuqufang is also called Jiuquyuan. It contains strange mountains and rivers, and its main trunk is a Jiuqu Mingxi River.
After continuous expansion by successive emperors of Dayin, Jiuqu Garden now has nine palaces, one hundred and eight halls, nearly a thousand large and small pavilions, and countless exotic flowers and plants have been planted. Even in the coldest month of winter, there are still exotic flowers blooming.
Fragrance flows everywhere.
After Emperor Jiayou ascended the throne, various rare birds and animals gradually appeared in Jiuqu Garden.
Later, due to certain things, Jiuquyuan changed its name in Haojing. Starting about ten years ago, Jiuquyuan became the "Beast Garden" in the mouths of the people in Haojing. With the encouragement of a group of scholars,
Now, the 'Beast Garden' has become notorious.
Today's Emperor Jiayou, Emperor Yinyuan, does not like the imperial city and has been living in Jiuquyuan for several consecutive years.
Even on this year's New Year's Eve, Emperor Jiayou barely showed up at the palace dinner held in the imperial city. He stayed in the Dali Hall for less than a quarter of an hour before secretly leaving the banquet and leaving all matters to the current Queen Mother.
.
Bai Changkong vomited a mouthful of blood at the intersection. His eyes were bloodshot with anger, and he didn't bother to argue with a few soldiers. He was so angry that he rode along the east side of the imperial city, accompanied by a few wise friends.
Qianggen ran for dozens of miles and arrived at the gate of Jiuqu Garden.
A group of Yulin troops stationed here stopped Bai Changkong and others.
A quarter of an hour later, Bai Changkong's message asking to see the Emperor was sent to the depths of Jiuqu Garden after several transmissions.
Next to the frozen lake, surrounded by several green mountains, several exquisite pavilions surround a majestic hall.
Below the main hall, several fire dragons burned bright red, making the main hall as warm as spring and even a bit hot.
Around the main hall, the outer carved wooden doors of the double portals were opened, and the warm sunlight shone into the main hall through the carved doors inlaid with large crystals on the inner layer, illuminating the main hall brightly.
In the spacious and bright hall, sandalwood shelves are neatly arranged around. On the shelves are placed cricket jars made of various materials. In the jars, hundreds of crickets chirp very energetically, and the high-pitched chirps are mixed into one, almost
The roof of the main hall can be lifted off.
In the middle of the hall, on a white carpet several feet long and wide, Emperor Jiayou Yinyuan, wearing a dark purple robe and with long hair, was lying on the ground, holding a piece of long grass in his right hand and carefully stirring up a cricket in the jar in front of him.
A giant cricket with a gold head and a silver back.
"My golden-headed general, eh, let's fight for your reputation, fight for your reputation, this old guy Yu Changle has won eighteen games in a row. You can't lose this game, you can't lose!"
Jiayou Emperor Yinyuan had a good royal bloodline. He was tall and burly, with an upright Chinese character face and a majestic face. His sword-shaped eyebrows and starry eyes were very bright, and his appearance was quite handsome. In terms of appearance alone, he was worthy of being the emperor of the dynasty.
However, his long hair was disheveled, his robes were messy, his slightly sunken eye sockets were dark, two huge black eye bags, blue lips, and two cheeks were slightly drooped, making him look listless and giving people a "
The impression of a drunkard and a drunkard.
And the veteran fish he talked about, Yu Changle, was lying opposite him, with his head on his head, using the long grass to tease another big cricket with a red head and a bronze body in the cricket jar.
Dayin Wu Dynasty's inner court's first-rank regular servant, the chief of the twenty-four prisons of the inner court, the admiral of the palace, the warden of Yulin, and the commander of the Shaofu. He is the number one confidant of Emperor Jiayou's side. The emperor is still nursing.
When the time comes, I will accompany the eunuch Yu Changle beside me!
Wearing a deep purple robe, with a huge red one-horned gecko embroidered on the chest. From head to toe, with ten blood-colored spots on the middle line of his back, Yu Changle is over eight feet tall and has a waistline of almost
Eight feet tall, white hair, white face, no beard, round face with a bright smile, looking harmless to humans and animals.
Yu Changle never put on makeup, but he was born with a silvery complexion and a lip that was as red as blood.
Because of his appearance, the cultural and educational disciples in the Dayin court said - "Yu Changle is addicted to eating children's hearts. He must eat three hearts a day, causing the blood energy to react and make his lips as red as blood"!
Someone else said, 'In order to keep his youth and longevity, Yu Changle uses the blood of young girls instead of tea every day, so he keeps his skin smooth and smooth'!
Others say, 'Yu Changle is a fake eunuch. Every time the palace recruits more maids, he has to be beaten by Yu Changle. He is good at picking up yin and nourishing yang and all kinds of evil methods. Therefore, he is almost sixty years old and still in good spirits.'
!
Thanks to these people, Yu Changle's reputation in Dayin is like that of a demon in the underworld who can stop children from crying in the middle of the night.
Amidst the sharp chirping of crickets, Yu Changle's red-headed cricket grabbed Emperor Jiayou's golden-headed general in one bite. After a stalemate, a scream was heard. One of the golden-headed general's thighs was bitten off, and the golden-headed general was bitten off by the red-headed giant cricket.
The cricket's head flicked and he threw it out of the cricket jar.
Yu Changle clapped his hands and laughed loudly: "Oh, oh, what do you say? Your Majesty, I am lucky, I will receive a hundred guan of benefits, hehe!"
Emperor Jiayou raised his head, let out a long sigh, threw away the grass, and held the golden-headed general with a broken leg in his hands with a tangled look on his face.
"Hey, my golden-headed general, you are really, really... As the old saying goes, it takes a thousand days to raise an army in a moment, but you have really wasted your food and salary in vain."
"But if you don't fight well, I can't help being benevolent and righteous, right?"
"Come here, take the golden-headed general down, take care of him carefully, and provide for him until he retires."
Two eunuchs in red robes walked up lightly, took the golden-headed general from Emperor Jiayou's hand, put it into a cricket jar inlaid with gold and jade, and carefully held it to the wooden jar beside it.
On the shelf.
Regardless of his appearance, Emperor Jiayou lay down on the spot and looked at the carved caisson of the main hall: "Hey, old fish, let's remember this account first. Money is tight recently. You know, after the first month, we will have to wait for the first month.
Just think of ways to get more."
Yu Changle sat cross-legged next to Emperor Jiayou and said softly: "Your Majesty, don't worry, I remember it clearly, and I guarantee that not a penny will be lost."
Emperor Jiayou glanced at Yu Changle and snorted heavily: "Old guy!"
Rolling his eyes, Emperor Jiayou kicked his legs out of boredom: "Hey, is there anything new happening in the market recently?"
Yu Changle squinted his eyes, covered his mouth and laughed softly: "How can there be something new every day? It's not the same as before, the country is peaceful and the people are safe, the weather is smooth, the court is full of gentlemen, serving the country and the people, so the people live and work in peace and contentment, and the world is safe and sound!"
Emperor Jiayou turned his head and spat heavily on the carpet.
"Gentleman? Scared!"
"Just those things, ha!"
"That is to say, each generation of those martial arts warriors is not as good as the last. If they are just a little bit more ambitious, will they have the chance to rise to power like this group of hypocrites who are so eloquent?"
Shaking his head, Emperor Jiayou straightened up suddenly and sat cross-legged opposite Yu Changle.
"Have you found out what happened years ago?"
The atmosphere in the hall suddenly became a bit more mysterious. Emperor Jiayou lowered his voice and looked at Yu Changle very furtively: "Then Anlefang Ling He Jun said that it was ghosts causing trouble. Is there really a ghost?"
The joking Yu Changle also became serious. He looked at Emperor Jiayou seriously and said softly: "Your Majesty, I am not afraid of ghosts causing trouble. What I am afraid of is that the trouble is not ghosts!"
Emperor Jiayou looked at Yu Changle with dark eyes.
Yu Changle blinked and looked at Emperor Jiayou.
After staring at each other for a long time, Emperor Jiayou turned his head and looked through the crystal window at the frozen lake outside the main entrance of the hall.
"I have read the ancient books of the Secret History Prison. It is said that there are ghosts in this world."
Emperor Jiayou murmured: "It's just that, after so many years, who in this world has seen a ghost with his own eyes?"
"Not to mention, she is an extremely beautiful female ghost."
"I really want to see with my own eyes what this ghost looks like."
"Old Yu, you are right, this ghost is really scary when no one comes."
"The news must be sealed, sealed tightly, and not allowed to leak out." Emperor Jiayou said quietly: "My reputation and yours are already bad enough. If word spreads that there is a ghost in Haojing, Haha, it must be that the emperor has lost his virtue and favored treacherous people, so he has brought disaster to the country and the people, causing the people to live in dire straits!"
"I am that immoral and foolish king."
"You are the spoiled sycophant."
"As a faint king, what should I be afraid of?"
"Who can do anything to me?"
"Who dares to do anything to me?"
"If it were another emperor, he might not be as good as me."
"But, as a traitor, Old Yu, you might be killed by a thousand cuts!"
Emperor Jiayou gently patted Yu Changle's plump and soft shoulders. The fat meat all over Yu Changle's body trembled slightly. His round, white face looked like it had been torn apart by a hundred mad dogs. The silence and desolation that followed.
A chamberlain eunuch quietly rushed into the hall with a breeze.
"Your Majesty, Imperial College Prince Bai Changkong wishes to see Your Majesty."
Yu Changle, who looked pitiful, squinted his eyes, and a cold air spread around him. He stood up quietly and looked at the eunuch in the chamber with a gloomy face.
Emperor Jiayou was dumbfounded, turned his head, looked at the eunuch, and suddenly sneered: "Bai Changkong? That prude old immortal. We don't have any friendship on weekdays? We have seen each other in these years.
I visited him less than thirty times. Why is he here during the Chinese New Year? Needless to say, the weasel has no good intentions when paying New Year greetings to the rooster."
Blinking his eyes, Emperor Jiayou waved his sleeves: "Tell him, last night I went on a candlelit night trip with Concubine Qi, and Xiao Ran was lying in the cold. Let him go to the Queen Mother if he has something to do, and don't come here to make noise.
Emperor Jiayou sneered: "I'm going on a night tour by candlelight. I told Bai Changkong the original words, the original words, and the original sentence. The deputy director of the Imperial Academy? Bah, I just don't know how to learn. He has the ability. He
Let me 'study and improve'!"
Emperor Jiayou sneered again and again.
Yu Changle and all the eunuchs around him showed mysterious smiles at the same time.
A quarter of an hour later, Yu Changle got some relevant information from Lu Qian. He read it carefully and laughed: "Oh, he is a good boy with a future. Can he be so angry that Bai Changkong vomits blood?
Talents must be well cultivated and cultivated!”
"The nephew of Marquis Tianen, whose grandfather was once a member of the Yulin family?"
"This is a serious member of my family."
"However, Bai Changkong seems to have overreacted to this matter. Investigate, use all means, investigate thoroughly. Why does this marriage feel so sinister and evil? There must be some shady activities involved, and we must find out.
ah!"
While Yu Changle was checking Lu Qian's file information, Bai Changkong received a reply from the chamberlain.
Bai Changkong was silent for a long time, then burst out into hysterical roars.
"A faint king, a foolish king! A foolish king who is ignorant and incompetent. There is such a foolish king in the Yin Dynasty. He is going to perish, he is going to perish!"
"Yu Changle, traitor, traitor! If our Dayin Dynasty dies, you will be the culprit!"
"Yu Changle, how dare you mislead other people's children and use your power to coerce good family members to join your eunuch party and become your minions?"
"I, Bai Changkong, am incompatible with your eunuch!"
"It makes me angry, it makes me angry. Lu Qian is willing to fall. I, Bai Changkong, am kind-hearted and enthusiastic. The decades of brotherly love between me and the eldest brother of the Lu family, this kind of courageous loyalty!"
With a 'pop' sound, Bai Changkong vomited blood for three feet.
He jumped up and hit the big archway at the entrance of Jiuquyuan. He hit his head with a bang and his head was bleeding. He rolled his eyes and fainted and fell to the ground.
Several great sages exclaimed in unison, cursing 'foolish king' and 'treacherous sycophant', and hurriedly picked up Bai Changkong and turned around to leave!
In the evening, in and around Haojing City, in brothels, taverns and other bustling places, countless cultural and educational disciples showed up one after another to talk about the "treacherous and sycophantic fish Changle" who "brought disaster to the country and the people", who used power to coerce and lure the sons of good families to join the eunuch party, and wantonly humiliated the "pillars of the country".
Despicable means.
The Bai family publicly announced that the Bai family was ashamed of being associated with the eunuchs, and since Lu Qian had resigned himself to corruption, the Bai family decided that the engagement between their daughter Bai Lu and Lu Qian was officially annulled, and Bai Lu should choose a talented person from Haojing and get married today!
