Xiao Han's time to go to court was already urgent, but Cui Renxuan was delayed for a while by Cui Renxuan who suddenly came out.
When Xiao Han just left the house, he saw that there were people walking towards the palace just now, but in the blink of an eye, he was the only one left on the road, so Xiao Han became more and more guilty as he walked, and in the end, he could almost be said to be running wildly.
, Zhang Qiang and the others behind them were somewhat unable to catch up with Xiao Han.
There is no reason why Xiao Han shouldn't be nervous. After all, being late here doesn't mean you can be fined ten yuan...
Perhaps modern people envy the ancient officials who had three wives and four concubines, shouting and drinking, but the judges probably only saw thieves eating meat, not being beaten!
This time is different from later, when you work from nine to five, and you can take a day off if you have something to do.
The current emperors are all working diligently. As soon as the sky breaks, that is, after six o'clock, they will start going to court. This is still winter. If it is summer, it will be even earlier!
Fortunately, maybe there were too many people in attendance today. When Xiao Han rushed to the palace gate in a hurry, he happened to be stuck on the last wave!
After checking his waistband, Xiao Han took a deep breath and hurriedly walked forward among a pile of blue official uniforms. In the distance, Zhang Qiang and the others were out of breath running. They were even worse than Xiao Han. After all,
All Xiao Han had to do was run around empty-handed, and they had to carry a box of gold!
Zhang Qiang saw Xiao Han follow him into the palace from a distance, and felt that all his strength was drained. He didn't care whether the ground was dirty or cool, and sat down on the ground. He wanted to know who it was now.
You say you can move gold without sinking? Let him try! You can't crush him!
Daxing Hall is as chaotic as ever! There are crowds of people everywhere, coughs, greetings, and even shouts of yelling and cursing.
Xiao Han followed the person, avoiding a familiar petty official, and walked around to the side, found the familiar pillar and sat down. He had two cushions to himself, which were soft and warm.
, which made Xiao Han, who had been freezing all morning, hooked up!
After moving his buttocks and finding a more comfortable position, Xiao Han began to doze off in a daze.
The location Xiao Han found was very good. This pillar belonged to a small blind corner, just on the far side of the palace. Except for Xiao Han, the "Elder of Three Dynasties" would come over. As for the others, they were eager to listen to the holy words and sharpen them one by one.
He raised his head and leaned in front of Li Yuan. With his horns like this, they wouldn't even take a glance at him.
When Xiao Han went to court before, it was basically like today. He slept here with the old man and slept until the meeting was over. But today for some reason, the old man didn't come over. But it's okay, Xiao Han is more comfortable by himself.
The music is so pure, and you don’t have to listen to people snoring. People will fall asleep almost within a few minutes of sitting down. It’s more effective than attending classes at school!
China's imperial palace almost represents the highest achievement of Chinese architecture, whether it is appearance or interior!
However, the ancients were clumsy and restrained, so from the outside, the palace is just taller and more glorious, nothing strange, and it is not even as good-looking as some castles in the West.
But that’s not the case. In the palace, everything you think of and can’t imagine is there!
For example, the steps of this Daxing Hall are extremely high. Including the palace, it is dozens of meters above the ground! It makes Xiao Han climb* every time, and the cold north wind blows from the back mountain and pounces directly on this place.
This is a big hall. Just think about it and you will know that it must be very cold!
But it is very warm!
Of course, the unusual warmth is not because there are so many people in the temple keeping it warm, but because it has floor heating!
Yes, you read that right, it really does have floor heating! The technology that was used thousands of years later is being used today, which really makes people admire the wisdom of the ancients!
Daxing City, also known as Chang'an City and Luoyang City, which can be said to be the two largest cities in the world today, were both designed and built by Yu Wenkai, and the Daxing Palace was also designed by this legendary architect.
Under this magnificent and huge palace, there are countless vacancies and flues. Before going to court in winter, the eunuchs would light a fire to warm it up. People in it would not feel cold at all!
In summer, ice spring water from the mountains is led underground to cool down the palace, so the temperature inside Daxing Hall is always suitable.
Xiao Han didn't sleep well last night. He dreamed of the beautiful Xue Pan in the first half of the night. Just after he had the sweet dream for a while, Xue Shou came out, pinched his neck and asked him why he wanted to pick up his sister. As a result, Xiao Han was frightened.
I broke out in a cold sweat and woke up immediately.
When I finally fell asleep again, I dreamed of two bastards, the Marquis of Xiangcheng and Cui Renxuan. The three of them immediately got into a drunken fight! Anyway, I didn’t sleep well that night! When I got up in the morning, my legs were still shaking, so I took this opportunity now.
, just in time to catch up on some sleep.
Since the number of people today was no less than that of the Great Court, the hall was not quiet until Li Yuan went to court. It was not until the eunuch in charge stood on the high platform and cracked the quiet whip that the humming noise below became quiet.
Xiao Han only heard the sound of the whip in a daze and didn't care. Anyway, after exchanging the two people for a box of gold, he was fine today. He stretched out his hand to scratch the itch and chose a more comfortable position. His eyes
I didn't even open my eyes, but still slept against the pillar. The warmth under my buttocks really made me fall asleep...
It's a pity that such a comfortable state was broken before it could last more than a stick of incense. The elders of the three dynasties who had just squeezed in without knowing where they were were dragging a cushion and moved to Xiao Han's side step by step, shaking it violently.
Suddenly Xiao Han, who had just dreamed of dating a beautiful woman, woke up.
"Who is it? Don't bother me..." Xiao Han was woken up by a violent shake, and he could only barely open his eyes. When he realized it was the old man, his eyelids immediately closed again.
"Hey! Wake up!" The old man was so angry when he saw Xiao Han like this that he was no longer polite. He twisted Xiao Han's thigh with his hand and turned it hard. He saw that Xiao Han had completely closed his eyes and his whole body was shaking.
Shocked, a pair of eyes suddenly widened, face turned purple, hands and feet were trembling, mouth opened wide and just about to shout, I felt something was wrong at first, and immediately covered my mouth hard, holding in the squeaking was extremely hard!
"Hiss... Old man, what are you doing, trying to twist me to death?!" After finally waiting for the burning feeling to subside, Xiao Han immediately looked at the old man with wide eyes. Could it be that the old man took the wrong medicine today?
, I still worship crab as my teacher, why do I get pinched and twisted when I get up?
"Idiot, you still want to sleep!" Unexpectedly, the old man was even angrier than Xiao Han. His fingers were almost on Xiao Han's forehead, and he said with a bit of hatred: "Do you know, today there is
How many people are preparing to impeach you, but you still dare to sleep! You can still sleep! You... what can I say about you?"
"Impeach me?" Xiao Han pushed away the old man's pointed finger and asked rather strangely: "Why are you impeaching me? Going to court to sleep?"
"Idiot!" The old man couldn't bear it anymore and slapped Xiao Han hard on the head. He almost slapped Xiao Han in his crotch and almost slapped Xiao Han's hair! What happened in the past two days?
It’s a bad year? Why does everyone want to beat themselves up!
The old man ignored him and was not afraid of Xiao Han's displeasure. He pointed his big hand outward and spit on Xiao Han's head: "Why are you so stupid? You don't know what you have done? Or do you think others are fools?
I just heard from there that someone wants to impeach you for being jealous of the Marquis of Xiangcheng and fighting over a woman. I want to see how you explain it later!"
"That's it? Are you always going to whip me?" Upon hearing this, Xiao Han's eyes widened and he couldn't even utter the curse words he had prepared!
I can't stand this kind of person who treats me well. Even if he does something that makes me unhappy, I'm too embarrassed to blame him! I have to say nicely: "Uncle, it's not enough for me to call you uncle! Don't worry about this matter."
, Boy, I was also plotted by someone. Besides, they also sued the Marquis of Xiangcheng! Everyone knows that I, a little viscount, was still forced to accept the challenge. How can I be blamed for this! "
"Boom..."
Xiao Han had just finished speaking, and the old man looked like he wanted to say something else. Suddenly, there was a drum sound outside, and the hall that had been noisy just now immediately became silent. The old man did not dare to make a sound at this time, so he had to close his mouth first and stretch his muscles.
He raised his neck and looked towards the entrance of the palace!
Xiao Han had never heard of drums being played in the middle of the morning. This was not a zoo! So we quickly looked towards the door together!
The dull drum beat rang for a moment. When the drum sound died down, Xiao Han saw a large group of people pouring in at the spacious palace entrance, and they were either purple robes or scarlet robes. They were obviously very high-ranking people.
!
"What time is it now? How come such a big official is late? Why are there so many people when he is late?" Xiao Han frowned and asked strangely.
"You are really an out-and-out idiot!" The old man almost hit the pillar in front of him in anger at Xiao Han's words!
He grabbed Xiao Han, pointed at the people who came into the palace later, and said: "You see clearly, why are you late! The person in charge is the prime minister! You don't know Pei Ji or Liu Wenjing? They are going out of the city to meet King Qin.
!”
"Welcoming King Qin? Didn't they come back yesterday?"
"You can't go back after you come back? Then why do you have to eat after you have eaten?" The elder of the Three Dynasties had completely given up on Xiao Han. He scolded him, shook his head and explained: "Do you know, this is to welcome a great victory?
According to the highest etiquette, whenever the army returns from a complete victory, the prime minister and the princes of the country must personally go out of the city to greet them! This is the rule!"
"Is there such a rule?" Xiao Han opened his eyes wide in surprise, looking at the adults returning to the train, suddenly remembered something, and asked: "Then I am also a prince, why didn't you ask me to greet you?"
"You?" The old man who had been a veteran of three dynasties glanced sideways at Xiao Han, as if looking at a hotel clerk, and said with great disdain: "You just said that you, a little viscount, do you think you can be detained?
