Passing by Fusi, Jinyiwei North Town, Chang Yu saw the bright lights inside. Chang Yu stopped and thought for a moment, turned around and walked in.
Unexpectedly, Wu Mengming was so dedicated. He was still discussing this matter with a few of his subordinates at the Yamen. He seemed a little surprised to see Chang Yu arriving: "Eunuch Chang, this is..."
"How are things prepared?" Chang Yu looked around and found a chair to sit down.
"Basically, it's almost the same. There are a total of 20 carts and 1,200 cavalry. We can travel day and night. We can reach it in three to five days at the fastest."
"Why are there so many cars?" Chang Yu frowned.
"The salary of half a million yuan accounts for nearly ten vehicles. Including the fodder and spare vehicles, twenty vehicles are actually the minimum," Wu Mengming explained.
Chang Yu suddenly realized and nodded: "You are clear about this matter. You are responsible for handling the details. By the way, have all the honorable money been delivered, and have Zhou Guozhang and others been released?"
When mentioning this matter, Wu Mengming couldn't help but smile: "Six more paid the money in the afternoon, and the others are still being prepared. The principals and dukes of the country followed your instructions and were released at dark, and they all started shouting.
If you want to see the emperor, brother, I didn’t pay any attention to you, and just asked the Jin Yiwei to escort him outside Zhengyang Gate, hey, that Luo Lu Jin... don’t mention it.”
Chang Yu chuckled: "I'm afraid I'm still gritting my teeth."
After saying that, he got up and exchanged a few words with Wu Mengming, then left Beizhen Fusi, exited Daming Gate and walked quickly towards Zhengyang Gate.
It was already dark now, and the Zhengyang Gate, the main entrance to the inner city, had already been locked. Two lanterns hung in the doorway, which was dark and filled with guards.
Chang Yu strode into the doorway, only to find that the guards on duty were surrounding the city gate and shouting something. He quickly approached with doubts in his heart, and vaguely heard someone knocking on the door and shouting: "I want to enter the city, I want to enter the palace,
I want to see the emperor..."
"What's going on?" Chang Yu approached and asked. The guard on duty noticed his figure. Just as he was about to ask, those with sharp eyes could already see his face clearly, and those who didn't saw clearly also saw the token in his hand: "
Eunuch Chang!"
"What's going on outside?" Chang Yu put away the token and asked again
"Someone is going to enter the city, look at this..." The commander-in-chief on duty looked embarrassed. He looked up at Chang Yu and whispered, "It's the father-in-law!"
Damn! No wonder he sounds so familiar. Chang Yu couldn't help but chuckle to himself, and he threw him out of the Zhengyang Gate with the Jin Yiwei men. This guy hasn't left yet. Fortunately, he had the foresight to lock him up before dark.
We just kicked him out, otherwise he would be making trouble at the gate of the imperial city in broad daylight.
"Open the door" Chang Yu waved his hand lightly.
The guards on duty immediately rushed to the city gate and locked it. With a creak, the gate opened a crack and the shouts outside the door became quiet.
"Why is it you?" Chang Yu stepped out, and Zhou Kui was obviously surprised.
Chang Yu was also a little surprised. He thought that Zhou Kui was the only one, but he didn't expect that besides the abbot, Dingguo Duke Xu Yunzhen, British Duke Zhang Shize and a few unknown uncles were planning to form a group to meet the saint.
.
"Why, the father-in-law is very surprised to see me. I'm not going back home in this cold weather. I'm drinking the northwest wind here." Chang Yu had a bad smile on his face. In order to put pressure on these nobles, he wore cotton clothes.
It's gone, now everyone is really wearing thin clothes, shaking in the cold wind, and their faces are blue and purple from the cold.
"I want to go into the palace to meet the saint and see the queen." Zhou Kui snorted and stretched out his hand to push Chang Yu away and slip through the crack in the door.
But he didn't want to be pushed away by Chang Yu. The guard in the doorway closed the city gate with a clang. Zhou Kui pointed at Chang Yu and yelled: "You, you idiot, you dare to push me!"
"Master, what are you doing in the middle of the night? The city gates are locked after dark, and the palace cannot be opened. No one will let you in even if you scream until your throat is broken. Be obedient and go back to your home to have a good rest." Chang
Yu said as if coaxing a child, but everyone could tell it was a mockery.
"Humph, I can't see the Emperor and Queen today. I would rather freeze to death outside the city. I don't believe that girl is so heartless... Eh..." Zhou Kui said and suddenly glared at Chang Yu: "It's dark and the city gate is locked.
, how did you get out of the palace, how did you get out of the city gate, yes, yes, you eunuch colluded with the guards inside and outside, ignored the palace rules... I didn't expect you slaves to be so bold, and
The guards on duty in the palace turned a blind eye and deceived the emperor to this extent. You deserve to die. I will definitely report it to the emperor, so you can live well..."
"I asked you, Master, are you done with this?" Chang Yu interrupted Zhou Kui: "Our family has been ordered by the emperor to go out of the palace to do business, so we can naturally go in and out. You should worry more about yourself when you have free time. It's quite lenient."
His face was impatient: "If you don't go back home, why are you meeting the emperor in this dead ink?"
"I want to see the Holy Spirit for advice!" Zhou Kui was so angry, and it was cold, he couldn't help but roar.
Reason? Chang Yu curled his lips and made a sound: "You broke the law and violated discipline, and our family enforced the law impartially. What's wrong with it?" After saying that, he looked coldly at Xu Yunzhen and others who were silent and said: "You guys are following Huo Huo, and you also want to ask for justice.
No? I’m the head of the state and I’m shameless. Can you compare to me? Or are you saying that Jinyiwei’s prison is too comfortable and I haven’t spent enough time in it?”
Xu Yunzhen and others immediately looked at each other, bowed their heads and said nothing!
"How dare you insult me, you bastard?" Zhou Kui was furious, jumped up and punched Chang Yu in the face.
But how could Chang Yu let him hit him? He dodged sideways and kicked him in the calf at the same time. With a pop, Zhou Kui fell to the ground and screamed repeatedly. Zhang Shize and others rushed to help him.
"You can stay here if you want to be cold. Let's say something here. Whether you are here today or you go to Chengtianmen to cause trouble tomorrow, I will lose if you can enter the palace. How much money will I fine you?
We'll give it back to you." Chang Yu sneered at Zhou Kui, who was eating shit on the ground, and then glanced at Xu Yunzhen: "The national crisis is in front of us, and as a noble man, I can't contribute, so what's the point of trying my best? What's more, you are justified and insist on making a fuss.
I'm afraid if I go down, my ancestors' inheritance will be lost, so please take care of yourself." After saying that, he turned and left.
Zhang Shize and others' expressions immediately changed. They looked at each other for a few times and remained silent. Only Zhou Kui was left howling like a slaughtering pig: "How dare you, a castrate, beat me, who is the husband of the country..."
The lanterns are on and the night is still young. As the most prosperous neighborhood in Beijing, the nightlife of Dashilar has just begun.
The original name of Dashilan was Langfang Si Tiao, which generally refers to the commercial area around Qianmen. Because the official fence here was set up to prevent theft, it was wider and larger than elsewhere, so it was called Dashilar in the Qing Dynasty.
People in Beijing have a saying: "Go to the overpass to see things, go to Dashilar to buy things." There are many famous shops here, "horse Juyuan is on the head, Neiliansheng is on the foot, wearing the eight auspicious things, and the four constants around the waist." Now that is the real deal.
Beijing CBD.
As the most prosperous commercial district in Beijing, it is not enough to have basic necessities, food, housing, and transportation. There must also be places to eat, drink, and have fun. Therefore, there are many nightclubs and prostitutes here. The so-called eight alleys of old Beijing are famous here, and it is a famous red light district.
, among which Baishun Hutong and Hanjiatan Hutong are the most popular.
But the red light district here is a first- and second-class place in the capital, and ordinary people cannot afford it. It is full of celebrities, and it is like a club in the heaven and earth in later generations. When night falls, it is not surprising that the rich and powerful people in the city come here together to have fun.
The teahouse that Chang Yu and Yang Wuwei agreed on is next to Baishun Hutong, but it is getting late now, and the business of the teahouse is light, and it will close at midnight.
