Chapter 403: Fence the Gate
Hearing Shen Shixing ask, Lin Yanchao also had a plan in his heart, but if he continued to talk about it, he would be suspicious of being taunted. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
So Lin Yanchao said: "How dare the student say this little bit of shallowness, if you are a talent, the teacher should not laugh." “
Shen Shixing said with a smile: "Why do you laugh, your analysis is penetrating." “
While speaking, the sedan chair was carried to the left door of Chang'an. The left gate of Chang'an is the path for officials to return to the government after retreating, and outside the door is the official office of several major yamen.
At this moment, seeing that the palace gate was closed, the forbidden army in the palace was stationed on the ground as if it were a great enemy, and when they saw the old palanquin of the pavilion, they knelt beside the road together.
Shen Jiu, the housekeeper who was Shen Shixing, shouted: "Didn't you see that the elder pavilion was going out of the city? Why haven't you opened the door yet? “
The general of the forbidden army listened to the moment and said: "It is rumored outside that the Beijing camp outside the palace is in turmoil, in order to prevent the rebels from entering the palace gate and disturbing the holy driver, so we will close the palace gate in advance, and ask the elder to forgive me." “
Shen Jiu shouted: "Bastard, the elder is about to go out of the palace to quell the rebellion and open the city gate quickly." “
The general of the forbidden army listened and said: "Without the order of the eunuch or the fire card, I dare not open the door if I die." “
The guards in the palace are composed of the four guards of Teng Xiang, the four guard battalions, and the warrior battalion, all under the command of the eunuch of the imperial horse eunuch.
Shen Jiu said: "Bold, dare to stop the old palanquin, if the chaotic soldiers outside are really causing chaos, do you think a palace gate can block the chaotic soldiers?" “
The general of the forbidden army said: "Then it is not our responsibility, if the elder really wants to go out, either Gonggong Feng and the eunuch of the imperial horse are here, or see the Fu Huo card for the transfer of troops." “
Shen Jiu said angrily: "You are really rotten wood and you can't carve it." ”
Shen Jiu's liver was angry, and it was impossible for Shen Shixing to lose his identity and personally argue with a general of the forbidden army.
Everyone is also anxious, they can't even get out of the door, how can they calm the chaos. At this time, there were several noises outside the palace gate, I don't know if it was a chaotic soldier or a panicked people, and the generals of the forbidden army did not dare to open the door when they saw this.
Shen Jiu said: "You dare to wait for me, and I will let Gonggong Feng pick your head." ”
Shen Jiu was about to leave, when Lin Yanchao stepped forward and said, "Steward Shen, let me say a few words." ”
Shen Jiu said angrily: "Lin Xiu, don't ask for him. ”
"It's okay, I'll just say a few words." Lin Yanchao smiled.
The general of the forbidden army looked at Lin Yanchao and asked, "My lord?" ”
Lin Yanchao said: "Compiled by the Hanlin Academy, Lin Yanchao of Zhiwen Yuan Pavilion." ”
"It turned out to be the champion Lang, but the humble position is still the same sentence, either Gonggong Feng, the eunuch of the imperial horse is here, or he sees the Fu Huo card of the transfer of troops, otherwise he can't open the door."
Lin Yanchao said with a smile: "This official is not here to persuade you to open the door, just to worry about you." Let me ask you, if it is Lord Shoufu in the sedan chair who wants you to open the palace door, will you open it? ”
The general of the forbidden army said: "If it is Lord Shoufu, even Gonggong Feng and the eunuch of the palm seal must listen to his orders, and they will open the door by themselves." ”
Lin Yanchao said: "That's right, although Shen Weng is the third assistant now, there will always be a day when he will be the first assistant in a few years, and at that time, Gonggong Feng and the eunuch of the imperial horse also need to listen to his orders, but you are not good, brother." ”
On the side, Shen Jiu was about to leave, but when he heard Lin Yanchao's three or two words, his shocked expression passed by, and he stood still and looked at Lin Yanchao, showing admiration.
And the general of the forbidden army patted his head when he heard this, and said with annoyance: "If it is not for the champion to say a few words, he almost made a big mistake in his humble position." ”
Then the general of the forbidden army turned around and shouted: "Open the palace door quickly, what are you talking about, open quickly, take a step slowly, Lao Tzu kicks your ass." ”
On the side, the forbidden soldiers and soldiers opened the palace door. The general of the forbidden army knelt in front of Shen Shixing's sedan chair and said repeatedly: "The elder of the pavilion forgives the sins, the elder of the pavilion forgives the sins." ”
Shen Jiu was about to scold, but Shen Shixing said: "That's it, you are also acting on orders, what a crime, pacify the chaos of the soldiers, get up quickly." ”
The sedan chair man will be the sedan chair together, the sedan chair from the left door of Chang'an out of the palace gate, outside the palace gate is Chang'an Street, the left side is the Zongren Mansion, and the right side is the military department.
The sedan chair went all the way south through the gate of the Ministry of Officials, which was the Ministry of Households, but when I saw the heads of people outside the Ministry of Households, the black pressure was crowded here. Everyone got off the sedan car far away at the moment, not daring to approach, for fear of being seen by the rebels.
At this time, the gate in front of the Ming Dynasty's household yamen was banged.
Wearing all kinds of clothes, the officers and soldiers of the Beijing camp, who looked like prodigal sons on the streets, scolded there: "The corrupt officials of the household department, dare to be greedy for Lao Tzu's salary, open the door, otherwise Lao Tzu will kill him!" ”
"Open the door, open the door, otherwise Lao Tzu will give you a white knife in and a red knife out."
"Lao Tzu has made meritorious contributions to the imperial court! Lao Tzu shed blood for the Son of Heaven! I want to face the saint! I want to face the saint! Damn, don't come out again, Lao Tzu will kill it! ”
In addition, there were several people kneeling in front of the household yamen holding the spirit card and crying: "My grandfather, my uncle, and my uncle all sacrificed their lives for the country, and the family of three is not in Tumubao, my Zhao family is a loyal martyr, grandfather, grandfather Cheng, you open your eyes and see, how your children and grandchildren treat our Zhao family." ”
Hearing this, Lin Yanchao couldn't help but want to ask, brother, how long do you live? It has been more than 130 years since the Tumu Fort Incident, and even if you are in your fifties this year, your grandfather will be eighty years old when he goes into battle.
Shen Shixing lifted the sedan curtain and asked, "What's the situation?" ”
Lin Yanchao said: "According to the students' opinion, the officers and soldiers of the Beijing camp besieged the Yamen of the Household Department this time, if they don't stop it, I'm afraid they will rush into the Yamen." ”
Shen Shixing said: "How can this be reasonable, the household department is the important land of the imperial court's treasury, do they dare to break in?" ”
As soon as the words fell, the sound of the hammer door sounded, and dozens of officers and soldiers of the Beijing camp outside were demolishing and repairing nearby houses, making a hammer to pound on the door.
Seeing this scene, Shen Jiu couldn't help but lose his color and said: "The old man is not good, they are about to break in." We must not stand too close so that we will not be overwhelmed by the rebels. ”
Shen Shixing said: "You don't have to pay attention to here, let's go and see if there are any other people nearby, the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses, have the Jinyi Guards arrived?" ”
So Shen Jiu and a few servants went out to search for a while, and found a deputy commander of the Fifty Percent Soldiers and Horses Division, as well as a head of the household department.
The deputy commander had already arrived with a part of the soldiers and horses of the Five Cities Division, but he saw that the Beijing camp was besieging the Hubu Yamen and there were many people, and there was no one in charge, so he hid on the side and squatted in the ditches on both sides of the street to watch.
As soon as the deputy commander and the head of the household department saw Shen Shixing, he said: "See the elder of the pavilion." ”
Shen Shixing said: "The situation is urgent, so there is no need to be polite, this cabinet department asks you, at the moment, the rebels are making trouble, if you are allowed to take a few leaders to make trouble, do you dare?" ”
The deputy commander hurriedly knelt down and said: "Back to the old pavilion, there are only more than 100 people in the humble position, and there are thousands of officers and soldiers in the Beijing camp who surround the household yamen, I really don't dare." ”
Shen Shixing said: "This cabinet department didn't mean to ask you about it. If you invite a few leaders of the Jingying troubles here, how about the cabinet department say a few words to them and promise not to hurt them? ”
The deputy commander was embarrassed when he heard this, but he still said, "Let's give it a try." ”
