At the end of the day, the gate slowly opened in the melodious bell, and a black horse galloped out of the city gate that had not yet been fully opened, galloping in the direction of Yanshan Villa.

Niu Dagang, who was guarding the city gate, wanted to scold, but was stopped by Captain Chang, pointed to the fiery red that was gradually moving away, and shouted: "Niu Da, open your dog's eyes wide, see what official uniform that adult is wearing, don't pull us if you kid wants to die." ”

Niu Da shrunk his neck, he has been guarding the far gate for seven years, and he has an understanding of the uniforms of the officials in the DPRK and China, this fiery red is at least a fourth-grade officer, and the result of offending the fourth-grade officer by a gatekeeper can be imagined, and he looked for the steps and said: "This adult went out early in the morning, and he should have gone to Yanshan to face the saint in the direction, and he didn't know what major events had happened in the court, so he wanted the fourth-grade official to send the letter in person?" ”

"Guard your city gates, don't talk too much, right and wrong are because of too many mouths, you kid have a longer memory."

"Chang Tou, the little one has written it down, and from now on close this stinky mouth." The bull smacked himself lightly.

Jiang Anyi didn't know the situation behind him, he just wanted to see the Son of Heaven earlier. Last night, the third watch was settled, and the fourth watch got up, washed and changed into official clothes, and waited for dawn in the study.

The charcoal galloped out of only five miles, the front avenue was blocked by the wooden village, there were soldiers waving the flag on the high watchtower, Jiang Anyi slowed down the horse's hooves, and a sentry galloped out from the wooden village, stopping Jiang Anyi.

"What is the intention of the person who came to sign up for the card?" Leading the team is a famous captain, and the bright light armor is shining.

Jiang Anyi saw a Luan phoenix embroidered on the banner flying high on the wooden village, and the left and right military guards were called "Xiongqu", still white, and set up five cow flags and flying Lin flags、?? Flags, Luan Flags, Rhino Flags、?? Flag? flag, but I don't know whether it is the left or right guards who guard the wooden village.

"This general, the official Jiang Anyi, the assassin of Yuanhua Prefecture, was ordered to go to the other garden to see him." Jiang Anyi arched his hand.

Jiang Anyi's name is known to everyone, the captain looked at Jiang Anyi, the red official uniform on his body couldn't be faked, the captain's tone was a little softer, and he hugged his fists and said: "I've seen Lord Jiang, dare to ask where the street sign is?" ”

Street signs, Jiang Anyi was stunned, and the father-in-law who passed the decree yesterday didn't know whether it was careless or intentional, and he didn't issue the street sign, what should I do?

"This general, the father-in-law who passed the decree yesterday did not issue a street sign, and when the Son of Heaven has a decree, Jiang does not dare to delay, I don't know if I can be accommodating, let Jiang go first, if the general can't believe Jiang, he might as well send troops to accompany him."

The lieutenant's face was embarrassed, and he said: "Lord Jiang, it's not that the last general refuses to let him go, and the iron law in the army can't be released if he doesn't see the street signs, and the last general can't afford to take this responsibility." Your Excellency, please wait a moment, the last general will speak for you, and please make a decision. ”

"There's General Law."

Waiting for the kung fu is not short, seeing that Yin Zheng has passed, only to emerge from the wooden village a group of people, the stars holding the moon in the middle is a general wearing fine scale armor, sixteen guards each guard set up a general (is three products), under two generals (from the third product), Jiang Anyi does not know this general.

The general obviously knew Jiang Anyi, and said with a smile: "It turned out to be Lord Jiang, and it was hard work to go to face the saint so early in the morning. But you can't do it without a street sign, or you wait, I'll send someone to the other garden to ask, the palace eunuch should have a record, let them make up a street sign. ”

Jiang Anyi frowned, if he waited for the letter to be sent here, and then reissued the street sign, I am afraid that the time will have passed when the sign arrives. After a few soft words, the general shook his head with a smile, but he didn't let him go, Jiang Anyi noticed that the general was smiling, but there was no smile in his eyes, and he was obviously deliberately embarrassing himself.

Not in the mood to think about what kind of festival there was between himself and this general who had never met before, Jiang Anyi was anxious, it was a big crime to miss the time, and reached out and touched it in his arms, and the gold medal given to him by the Son of Heaven was still in his arms. took out the gold medal and held it in his hand, raised it high, Jiang Anyi said: "This gold medal may be used as a street sign?" ”

When the general saw the gold medal, he was startled, jumped off his mount and knelt down on one knee, and said: "The last general, Huang Jifei, is driving, his armor is on his body, and he can't pay full salutes, please long live the forgiveness." The guards beside him hurriedly knelt down, and the sound of "Bang Lingling" armor pieces rang out.

"General Huang, can you let him go?" Jiang Anyi asked.

Huang Jifei stood up and ordered in a loud voice: "Let go." ”

Relying on the gold medal in his hand, Jiang Anyi was unimpeded, and he came to the foot of the garden before the hour. There is a yellow flag fluttering at the entrance of the annex, and the left and right guards are still yellow. With the flag at the end, Jiang Anyi jumped off the horse, held the gold medal and said loudly: "Jiang Anyi, the assassin of Yuanhua Prefecture, came to see the driver by order. ”

There is a gold medal in it, the soldiers guarding the door did not dare to stop it, someone took him to a house, which was originally one of the eighteen manors of Yanshan, because it was at the foot of the mountain, it was opened up as a place to register and pass through, to see the Son of Heaven, it was necessary to pass through the eunuchs of the Inner Service Province.

Today's eunuch on duty is Tang Lu, the eunuch of the inner eunuch, he is the godson of the eunuch Tang Wenzhong, relying on the power of the eunuch in the palace, Tang Lu is also a figure among the eunuchs and palace maids in the palace. If you want to gain a foothold in the palace, being well-informed is the top priority, Tang Lu, as the number one eunuch in the palace, is naturally well-informed, Tang Lu knew about Jiang Anyi's visit last night, and at the same time, he also knew that the reason why Banzai let Jiang Anyi meet him when he was in town was because he was dissatisfied with the prince's suburbs.

The palace is very powerful, many palace people have never been successful in their lives, and Tang Lu became an internal eunuch at the age of twenty-four, and became one of the celebrities who are expected to succeed the eunuchs.

Tang Lu's family is poor, and he was sent to the palace at the age of eight, and the meager Yulu in the palace had to be deducted half by the master, so how could he have extra money. However, he is a shrewd person, he will check his face and look at his face to please his master, and later he worshiped Tang Jiezhong as his godfather, and gradually had some opportunities to buy, and he was somewhat oily and watery.

Tang Jiezhong has a lot of money, the best way to please him is to stuff silver, Tang Lu knew that he was reluctant to let the child trap the wolf, and most of the silver money he got was given to Tang Jiezhong, and he was more and more pleased with Tang Jiezhong, and soon promoted him to be an internal prisoner, and handed over the messenger to him.

The prime minister's seven officials in front of the door, not to mention guarding the door for the Son of Heaven, this messenger is a cornucopia, who dares to offend Tang Lu when he comes to meet the minister of the Son of Heaven, twenty taels, fifty taels or even one hundred taels of door bags are often received, and when he meets the familiar Tang Lu, he softly mentions a sentence "Long live the good mood today" or "Long live the Lord is angry, you add a little care" immediately in exchange for more than 100 taels of benefits, and the door bag will always be more than 1,000 taels in a month.

Tang Lu learned that Jiang Anyi's reputation came from the perfume in the palace and the honey fruit paid tribute by Huazhou, he would occasionally go out of the palace to buy items, knowing that the price of a bottle of perfume was more than one hundred taels, and there was often no market, I heard that the Jiang family produced 60,000 bottles of perfume a year, and this alone had an income of six million, no wonder the prince wanted to buy the manor in Yanshan some time ago, and Jiang Anyi made a million taels.

To be a eunuch is to be able to think about accidents, and to see the opportunity to make a move, such a god of wealth is sent to the door, of course Tang Lu can't let it go easily, and he made up his mind early to release some blood from Jiang Anyi. In a while, it will be the sixty-third birthday of his godfather Tang Jiezhong, this old man wants money, and he immediately lowered his face after giving a thin gift, scolding regardless of his feelings, he will rely on him in the future, and he can't help but stutter. Some time ago, I took a fancy to a jade Buddha in Dongshi, and the price of the shopkeeper was 12,000 taels, and he was a little short, and this difference fell on Jiang Anyi.

Hearing that the little eunuch said that Jiang Anyi was coming, Tang Lu greeted him with a smile, and first bowed to Jiang Anyi humbly, and said, "Lord Jiang came really early, and he hasn't eaten yet, or you will come to me a little." ”

Jiang Anyi looked at the time when the hour was approaching, how could he be in the mood to eat, and said with a smile: "Thank you father-in-law, but long live the will to let Jiang make a pilgrimage at the end of the day, and it is not good to delay." ”

Saying that, Jiang Anyi touched it in his arms, but his hand stopped, he came in a hurry, and he didn't bring anything in his arms except the gold medal. Tang Lu smiled, his face gradually pulled down, Jiang Anyi pulled out his hand and said with a smile: "Jiang came in a hurry, I forgot to bring silver taels, please forgive my father-in-law, and make up for it next time." ”

"Yo, look at what you said, Lord Jiang, it seems that our family is asking for benefits from you, if this reaches the ears of Banzai, our family can't afford to be guilty." Tang Lu said with a cold face: "Our family is born to run errands, you are waiting here, our family will report to the Son of Heaven for you." ”

Saying that, he turned around and entered the courtyard, and hung Jiang Anyi outside the door, Jiang Anyi was blushed, so he had to stand outside the door and wait, scolding in his heart: I'd rather offend a gentleman than a villain, I met a villain today.

The villain Tang Lu entered his residence unhurriedly, and instructed the little eunuch to bring the food and eat it slowly.

The little eunuch who cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks said with a smile: "What kind of champion of three yuan and the first, I don't understand the rules at all, I offended my father-in-law, your old man, I don't have to obediently guard outside the gate, I missed the hour, and the long live lord will definitely punish him fiercely." ”

With a "snap", Tang Lu threw the teacup on the ground and smashed it, and scolded: "Bold, how can you talk about Lord Jiang's affairs only as a little slave, our family doesn't go to pass on the news for fear of disturbing the meal of the Long Live Lord, and I want you to sell your wisdom with a lot of tongues and give me a palm." The little eunuch was so frightened that he knelt on the ground and slapped himself with a "snap", and after a while, blood flowed from the corners of his mouth.

Tang Lu slowly stood up and said, "That's it, remember, don't be clever in front of the master, it is the duty of a slave to talk less and do more." ”

The sunlight shone into the courtyard of Qilongju and fell on Shi Fangzhen from the window lattice, Shi Fangzhen pushed away the bowl and said coldly: "The sun has risen a pole high, hasn't Jiang Anyi arrived yet?" It seems that our Lord Jiang's frame is too big, and he even dared not listen to the first time I asked him to meet him. Liu Weiguo, you go to greet Lord Jiang for me. ”
