It was at this time that the emperor withdrew from the court. When Marquis Zhenwu heard the news from Wuliang, he didn't say anything. He glanced at the tiger master and then left the palace.
The first thing after the morning court was to go to Cining Palace to pay respects to the Queen Mother. This was Ruotian's rule.
In the palace, the etiquette is relatively simple: the guards in front hold four leopard-tailed spears to guide the way, and there is an imperial guard at each corner of the toilet, carrying a two-foot-long sword called "Little Shen Feng" to follow.
There is a gold fan with two sides, a yellow umbrella covering the top of the head, followed by some serving eunuchs.
Ruo Tian is sitting in the middle of the court, feeling very unhappy.
The trend in the court was too clear. The princes and ministers involved in the discussion were very happy with it; most of the foreign ministers did not say it in their mouths, but they showed a kind of sadness and melancholy. The only one who dared to intercede for Hu Xia was the Eastern Tang Dynasty.
The people who came... had just entered Cining Palace, and what greeted Ruotian was a group of people playing sandalwood boards, playing loud flutes, and singing. A small palace platform was newly built in the east side hall, and the Queen Mother and two Taizong's concubines - Da
The noble concubines, Concubine Hui Shu, and Concubine Kang of Emperor Taizu, accompanied by many of the wives of Fujin, were watching the puppet show with great interest. The puppets were about a quarter of the size of a real person, and were very finely made, and could be manipulated by singing or singing.
The eunuch was in charge. A performance of "Buddha", an exhortation to good deeds, was being performed lively. Ruotian stepped into the side hall and was so frightened that the married women of Fujin stood up and retreated, bowed their heads, and fell to their knees.
Ruotian greeted the concubine and the empress dowager in turn. They received the courtesy one by one, said hello to the emperor, and then said goodbye to the empress dowager. The empress dowager smiled and persuaded her to stay and said: "Today's palace drama is serious, no matter how good it is, you'd better finish it.
! There will be newly imported pine nuts and ginkgo nuts from the north in a while, just in time to enjoy tea." The white-haired concubine sat down with a smile first, followed by Concubine Jing and Concubine Shu. The queen mother got up and apologized to them with a smile, and led them
Ruotian walked to the main hall of Cining Palace...
The autumn wind brought some whispers from the palace ladies:
"I still think I can climb up, just because I have something in my stomach!" "It's great now, look at her, she's still arrogant!..."
That night, the imperial doctor was urgently summoned into Jingren Palace. The eunuch in the court room and the chief eunuch in the royal pharmacy were so anxious that the moans of one concubine turned into a terrible scream.
The shaman witch wears a sacred hat and a bell on her body, holding a leather drum. She shakes her head and dances with the drum. She chants blessings from the gods loudly. The sound of the drums and bells gets faster and faster with her, and she dances like crazy.
and shouting, getting louder and more chaotic. She jumped from Jingren Gate into the front yard, jumped onto the platform, and danced at the door of the bedroom. The concubine's wailing, and her mother's crying consolation, still revealed
The sound of Guotiao God's drums and bells chanting blessings could be heard.
Suddenly the sky darkened, and just when the darkness was at its thickest and the sky was at its darkest, a baby's cry broke through the darkness and flew up into the sky. He cried desperately, as if he had been greatly wronged, angry, and angry.
Loudly, breathing hard the sweet air of the world and full of suffering. He will go through a long life, complete the magnificent cause, and his name will remain in the annals of history forever. But his first cry is no different from that of all babies, it is also a song
A touching song of life.
The national preceptor of Aolai Kingdom looked at the emperor entering the Cining Palace, then turned back and asked the eunuch beside him: "Can we start?"
The white-haired eunuch nodded, and then slowly disappeared, as if there was a door in the air.
Liu Juan didn't know that the imperial master had already taken action. He was still watching the soldiers in the restaurant, but he was surprised when the sky turned dark.
However, Liu Juan was also surprised at this time. There seemed to be no conflict between the inner guards and the imperial guards today. The swords were all pointed at Hu Jie and the soldiers who were helping him.
The person walking at the front of the inner guard was a man from Baihu. When he came in, he saw Liu Juan and others standing there with bruises and swollen faces. He frowned slightly and shouted: "What happened!"
Upon hearing this, Liu Juan rolled his eyes, immediately stepped forward, knelt on one knee on the ground, and said: "Sir, the three of them have just discovered the rebels and wanted to take them back for questioning, but they didn't expect to be resisted.
After a while, a large number of soldiers came, most likely a gang of rebels!"
Anyway, there were only three people including Liu Juan and others at the scene. As long as he and others insisted, Hujie would never deny it. Even if it was finally found out that this person was not a rebel, he would be released. But in this way, Liu Juan and others could get rid of the relationship.
, the worst case is just a punishment, after all, the internal guards do this kind of fights a lot.
Hu Jie said angrily: "You are so slanderous!"
Baihu turned to look at Hujie and said, "We will find out if he is a slanderer. Come on, take everyone back!"
"Wait!"
The Royal Forest Army officer who had been silent all this time said: "We received a tip that someone was rebelling here. Since we are here, it is our responsibility to take care of this matter, and we should take this person back!"
Baihu was stunned and said: "Sir, this is not good, these people hurt all my people. If you take them back, how will I explain to my people?"
At this time, Hu He on the side was also anxious. The inner guards and the imperial guards rebelled one after another. Wouldn't that push all his brothers to a dead end? He couldn't help but glared at Hu Jie next to him, and then said anxiously:
"Two adults, we are not rebelling, it's just a misunderstanding!"
Baihu turned to look at him and said calmly: "If there is a misunderstanding, we will find out naturally. You don't need to say more!"
Then he said to the Royal Guards officer: "Since you are interested in these people, I would like to trouble you. If there are any consequences, don't forget to inform us so that I can give an explanation to my brothers. After all, I am the one who was injured today."
My brothers, I can’t let them receive this beating in vain, can I?”
Although the inner guards and the imperial guards are not on good terms, on the surface the relationship between us still needs to be maintained. Hearing Baihu being so polite, the official immediately smiled and said, "Thank you very much. No matter what the consequences are, I will send someone to inform you."
You, if these people are really rebels, you can rest assured that your share of the credit is indispensable!"
After saying that, he turned to his men and said: "Take them all away!"
Facing the menacing internal guards, Hu He had no choice but to scold Hu Jie bloody in his heart. He could only follow the Imperial Guards honestly, and at the same time, he also hoped that Hu Xian could take care of himself.
Wait for someone to get out.
Liu Juan saw everything with his eyes: the people from the Yulin Army suddenly appeared and took these people away forcibly. There were only two possibilities. One was that these people had an affair with the people from the Yulin Army, and the Yulin Army was saving people. The other was this.
The people of the Royal Forest Army also want to solve problems and show their talents. You must know that the Royal Forest Army has definitely done this frame-up and subdued it. Otherwise, there would not be so many officials in Aolai Kingdom dying at their hands.
Moreover, Liu Juan also knew that the so-called drunkard was not interested in drinking. The Imperial Guards took these people away with great fanfare, and the purpose must be the leader of these soldiers, who was Hu Jie's father.
Just when Liu Juan was thinking about something, Baihu said calmly: "Get up!"
"Young ones don't dare!"
Liu Juan said immediately.
Baihu was stunned and asked, "Why don't you dare?"
To climb up, you must first gain the trust of the officer closest to you, and the most trustworthy way is to let him know that you will never hide anything from him.
LJ, who knew this well, immediately said: "Sir, in fact, the reason why we had a conflict with those people just now was because that young master was teasing Xiaohong, and we couldn't stand it..."
Baihu immediately interrupted him, then waved his hand to let the others leave, and then said to Liu Juan and the other three: "Remember, the conflict between you is definitely not because of Xiaohong, but because you discovered this
This person has colluded with the rebels, and when you investigated him, you encountered resistance from the other party! Also, anyone who asks you has to answer this way, do you understand?"
After hearing this, Liu Juan immediately became more sure of his idea, that is, whether it is the imperial guard or the internal guard, they will use this time to make a big fuss, and the three of them will undoubtedly become the main witnesses.
Thinking of this, Liu Juan did not hesitate and immediately nodded in agreement. As for what kind of results this sentence could produce, Liu Juan did not bother to think about it. He did not care whether the tiger appeared to be upright or a treacherous minister. He had nothing to do with him.
relationship.
After this fight, the three of them, Liu Juan and others, became famous for being able to fight, among other things! Even though the three of them faced a group of people and were beaten to a bruised and swollen face, the other group of people were not mediocre either. Although Hu Xian said
They were just Dongcheng soldiers and horses, but the few people who protected their only son were selected from different ranks in the army. Their skills were quite good compared to ordinary people, and Liu Juan and the other two could actually bully them with more.
Under the circumstances, there is no benefit, which has to show that Liu Juan and others still have a few brushes.
Because of this, the street patrolled by Liu Juan and others did not look down upon the three of them. First, because they were internal guards, which most people would not dare to mess with. Second, these men had relatively hot tempers. Third, they were internal guards.
Their fists are relatively hard.
After a few days, Liu Juan also understood the benefits of this inner guard. Apart from other things, it was considered as having no worries about food and drink. Eating one day at home and one at west was not a king's meal, but an absolute free meal.
Of course, because Liu Juan and others are in charge, the gangsters on the street don't dare to go to these stores to cause trouble. After all, the guards are not easy to mess with, not to mention these few who are quite capable in fighting.
Lord? In this way, these stores are willing to treat them to a meal. Anyway, there are many stores on this street. Even if they eat every day, they only get one turn every ten and a half months. And Liu Juan and the others also pay attention to thieves' ways.
Freeloading is fine, but there is absolutely no charge, so as not to be caught and make a fuss. At the same time, it also leaves a glimmer of hope for the owners of these stores. This is what Liu Juan calls sustainable development.
But there are also places on this street that they don't dare to go to when they don't have money, and that's the brothel. The backstage of the brothel is very powerful, and they can't afford it. They don't dare to go there without money in their pockets.
Why go whoring?
Liu Juan sometimes wonders why he changes so quickly. Sometimes when he thinks about himself now, he can't believe that this is him. But he also knows that the best way to survive is like this, just like
In that sentence, what does it look like?
Er Bian is from Kyoto and has parents at home. He goes home after work every day, while Liu Juan and Er Bian have nothing to do and go out for a walk every day. It is already early summer and it is starting to get warm in the north.
The clothes of the big girls in the streets and alleys gradually became thinner, revealing their beautiful figures. According to the big man's words, it can be touched and seen. Liu Juan brought a look, so
Every night at night, the two of them would stroll around.
On this day, the two of them were dressed in plain clothes. They had just gone out and walked a short distance when they saw a lot of people gathering on a small street, and at the same time there were sounds of arguments.
Liu Juan couldn't help but frowned slightly, turned to look at the big man next to him, and said, "What's going on? Someone still dares to cause trouble on our territory?"
The big man shook his head and said: "Brother Liu, I don't know about this. Why don't you go take a look, but listen to the sound, it seems to be stupid!"
He is so stupid that he is the leader of a gangster in this area, and there are probably dozens of brothers underground.
Liu Juan listened carefully and saw that there was indeed a stupid voice. He couldn't help but said angrily: "You bastard, doesn't he know that this is my territory? How dare you mess around here? I have to pull out his skin today!"
After saying that, he walked forward angrily, while the big man followed closely behind.
Within a few steps, Liu Juan reached the edge of the crowd, and at the same time he heard the humming inside, but someone was injured by the sound.
"You bastard, you dare to do something on my territory, don't you think so little of me?"
Liu Juan cursed secretly in his heart, feeling a little angry, and then squeezed in with all his strength. Just as he was about to speak, he saw someone so stupid that they were groaning on the ground. Their noses were bruised and their faces were swollen. It looked like they had been beaten, and...
Behind the stupid man, there were two girls standing, one of whom he knew, and there was a little maid next to her, and the two of them still had a look of fear on their faces, making them look pitiful.
Liu Juan couldn't help but feel stunned. You must know that this stupid person is considered a rogue in this area. Very few people would provoke him. But looking at the current situation, it seems that several people have been beaten badly.
So Liu Juan turned his head and looked across from him, and saw a young man in white standing opposite him. The folding fan in his hand was fanning gently, with a faint smile on his face. Next to him, standing
There were two men, dressed in ordinary clothes, but there was an aura about them.
Liu Juan was very familiar with this kind of aura, because he also had that kind of aura, just like a wild beast that jumped at the opportunity.
It has been nearly half a year since Liu Juan came to this Aolai country, and he has not met such a person yet, and now these two people make him feel a little threatened. Out of instinct, Liu Juan can't help but become on guard, with anger on his face.
It flashed away, replaced by a cold look on his face.
Liu Juan's change was immediately noticed by the two people. They couldn't help but turn their heads to look at Liu Juan, and then their eyes met with Liu Juan's, and a look of surprise appeared on their faces.
When Liu Juan met the other party's cold eyes, he immediately woke up and secretly cursed himself for not being careful. You must know that he is just a small inner guard now. Apart from being able to fight, the rest is hidden. His performance just now is absolutely...
It's not something a defender can have.
After reacting, Liu Juan's face suddenly became relaxed, he turned to look at Silly Death, and then shouted: "Stupid Death, you are so brave, dare to act wild here, don't you look down upon me?
Is it in?"
Normally when he saw Liu Juan, he would be as stupid as a mouse seeing a cat, unable to hide. But today when he saw Liu Juan coming, he couldn't help but feel happy and said: "Brother Er, you came at the right time!"
Because he was beaten so badly that his nose was bruised and his face was swollen, smiling was uglier than crying.
"Stop trying to get too close to me!"
Liu Juan said, then he walked up to the stupid man, turned his back to the young master and the other three people, his face darkened, and asked: "You kid, you did a lot of sneaking around one day, are you bullying these two girls this time?"
, was beaten?"
The two girls were beaten so badly that their noses were bruised and their faces were swollen, and the two girls looked pitiful, but they stood next to the stupid ones, as if they were the stupid ones.
They were protecting the two girls, and their opponents were the three people across from them.
As soon as he saw this, Liu Juan judged that the conflict between the three stupid people must be directly related to these two girls, and this time should not be caused by stupid people. As for why he scolded stupid people in the first place
Translation, it is to let the stupid person tell the whole story. This is much smarter than asking the stupid person himself.
Sure enough, after hearing Liu Juan scolding him without asking questions, he was so stupid that he looked aggrieved and said, "Brother Er, it's not me who caused the problem this time, but they bullied those two girls. We and others
I couldn’t stand it any longer, so I stepped in to help. You know this is a tough idea, and all the brothers have suffered!”
Liu Juan roughly understood the reason in his heart, but he still scolded: "Don't pretend to be stupid. I don't know who you are? Do you think you are a bastard and everyone else is a bastard?"
This sentence obviously meant to criticize Sang and Huai. How could the young master opposite not know that there was a trace of anger on his face that originally had a faint smile on it. He winked at the two people next to him, but they both shook their heads at the same time.
One of them whispered: "This person is not simple!"
When Liu Juan said this again, he also increased his vigilance and paid attention to the movements behind him. He also knew that those two people were not simple, so he had to be prepared to deal with sudden things at any time. Now when he heard that person say this, he smiled slightly in his heart.
But he was so stupid that he didn't know. After hearing what Liu Juan said, he immediately said: "Brother Er, I'm so stupid that although I'm usually not that kind of person, I definitely didn't provoke this incident! If you don't believe me, ask this girl!"
The girl next to her gently blessed her and said, "This elder brother is right. It is indeed the case that they are cheating on the little girl. It is all thanks to the help of these elder brothers, otherwise...!"
The girl didn't say any more, but Liu Juan's face couldn't help but darken. Although they usually "molested" civilian girls, it was just lip service. They had never done anything like robbing a woman.
, according to what I heard: if this man has the ability, the woman will naturally come to you. If he doesn’t have the ability, he is a coward and robs him. It is better to spend money to go to a brothel. At least other girls will greet you with a smile!
Liu Juan turned around, looked at the three people opposite, and said coldly: "Guys, should you explain?"
As soon as Liu Juan's words came out, the scene suddenly became quiet, and everyone turned towards the young master.
The young man's face changed slightly. You must know that there are not many people in the world who can ask him to explain anything.
One of the two guards opposite sneered: "Explain! Who are you, and what qualifications do you have for us to explain?"
Hearing what the person opposite said, Liu Juan was not polite. He took a step forward and said, "Why can't I ask you to explain?" After speaking, he took out his badge, raised his hand forward, and said, "I am the inner guard!"
"Inner guard?"
The young master opposite was stunned for a moment, then looked at Liu Juan strangely, and suddenly said: "The Dongcheng Army and Horses Division must have fallen into your hands. I have seen it before, are you Eryi?"
"The tiger is defeated?"
Liu Juan couldn't help being stunned and took back his badge. In his heart, he only knew that the Yulin Military Factory took Hu Jie and others away last time. He didn't know the rest of the matter. After all, it was a matter for the imperial court.
It was not the turn of one of his little inner guards to intervene, and it was a serious crime to criticize the court. Therefore, except for a few court ministers, most people did not know about Hu Xian's defeat.
Seeing that the other party was not afraid at all of his identity as an inner guard, and could also name himself and the name in his ear, then his identity was naturally different, and Liu Juan couldn't help but feel a little vigilant in his heart.
But now there are so many people watching, and my attitude was relatively tough just now. If I soften now, it will be a very shameless thing, and this matter is also related to the inner guard. After all, the inner guard is used to being domineering.
But there is no time to give in.
Therefore, Liu Juan quickly calculated the worst-case scenario of this matter in his mind: the other two guards looked not weak, and if he took action, he would definitely fight them, and he would not hurt the young master. At the same time, this would save his face.
It is also saved. If someone accuses him of this, the young master will most likely settle the matter. After all, if this big shot is rumored to be teasing women on the street, it is not an elegant thing, and he can only bear some scolding. At the same time, he can also use this to
Make some name for yourself.
Suddenly, the crowd became chaotic, and someone shouted loudly: "The emperor is buried in heaven, the emperor is buried in heaven! The emperor is buried in heaven!!"
Liu Juan was shocked when he heard this, and his face suddenly turned pale. He quickly looked at the task bar and found that the task had not disappeared. He was relieved. However, he found that more and more people were shouting that the emperor was buried. Soon, ten
The eunuch in charge of the third yamen led some servants to put up white boards everywhere. People crowded and shouted, some cried and some screamed, squeezing many people. The lively and noisy sounds added to the sad atmosphere.
Liu Juan now knew that the emperor's funeral was true, so who was the emperor he wanted to save?
Liu Juan looked at the taskbar and it didn't disappear. So who is the emperor he wants to save?
