"Amazing! At the beginning, it was sluggish, rushing and surging; Like waves and night terrors, the wind and rain come suddenly. "———————— [Qiu Shengfu]

Mu Shun was shocked, he had already seen the emperor's city, Dong Zhuo issued two edicts that violated the holy will before and after Shangshutai, and the matter of the emperor and Situ Wang Yun competing for military power was well known to everyone in the court, although the emperor made a retreat afterwards and withdrew an edict.

But the more Mu Shun thought about it, the more he felt that there were many doubts in it, you must know that the emperor's temperament has become calm and calm since his serious illness, and he is not angry, and he will fiddle with the scholars and servants who have been in the court for many years.

Just imagine, how could such a calm and intelligent emperor easily give in because of Wang Yun's few words?

He seemed to understand the ill-will behind the emperor's move, and he also believed that many people such as Shangshu Lingshi Sun Rui and Shizhong Yang Qi knew the emperor's intentions, even Wang Yun himself should clearly understand, but due to their respective positions and personalities, one side is reluctant to say it, and the other side is disdainful of saying it.

In the affairs of the court, Mu Shun consciously needs to observe and observe, and it is better to express his views less before learning these ways.

And this time to arrest the criminal slaves in the palace, I am afraid that the emperor also has far-reaching plans.

Without waiting for Mu Shun to answer, the emperor suddenly covered his mouth and yawned, his calves were numb due to sitting cross-legged for too long, and he almost didn't stand up when he tried to get up from the couch. Mu Shun hurriedly got up and held the emperor's arm, and tried to drag the emperor to undress and sleep: "Country, it's not early, you are tired of reviewing the Northern Army and scolding the scholars today, so it's better to rest here, there will be a permanent dynasty tomorrow." ”

"It's still early, isn't it just a regular dynasty, and it's not a big court."

The last two court meetings are Wang Yun's Yiyan Hall, and the court is full of Wang and his party, even if there are scholars Sun Rui and Yang Zan and others who open their eyes for the emperor, it is difficult to defeat Wang Yun's power. Although the emperor did not approve of Ma Riyan and others' attempt to defeat Wang Yun and replace him, he was still happy to see Wang Yun's power weakened.

Mu Shunquan didn't hear the emperor's casual words, he helped the emperor to the side of the bed, and a few Zhonghuang Men who had been waiting for a long time stepped forward to help the emperor untie his clothes, and the emperor did not stop him, closed his eyes and spread his arms, and let them serve.

At this time, Mu Shun leaned over to care for the futon on the bed, and the curtain was half lowered, and he heard the emperor say: "My uncle's house should be very lively in the past two days, right?" ”

Mu Shun laid out the futon and said to the emperor sideways; "Rewarded by the country, Uncle Guo is not only in charge of the Northern Army, but also has to be the Marquis of the Pavilion, and in the past two days, their door is full of people who want to visit. However, Uncle Guo closed the door tightly, and except for a few close friends who came and went close on a daily basis, the rest of them all declined one by one. ”

The Emperor closed his eyes, as if he was listening and faking sleep, and he nodded; "My uncle, don't look at him as a high-ranking official, but this is the way of an official, no worse than those ministers. If you are able to do things effectively and save your worries, how good would it be if the ministers of the DPRK and China were like them? ”

"The state says yes." Mu Shun served the emperor to lie down on the bed, tucked the corners of the quilt, and replied lightly; "Uncle Guo's family is reliable and fulfills their duties, and it will not be in vain to promote the country......"

Phew——!

A gust of wind suddenly blew open a window, the wooden window creaked against the wall, and the cold wind swirled around the room, blowing out all the lights at once. Everyone in the room was startled by the sudden wind, and the emperor, who was already half-asleep, also turned over at this time, sat on the bed and looked at the window vigilantly.

Mu Shun was shocked and angry, so angry that he ignored his manners, and shouted at those trembling Zhonghuangmen: "Which bastard didn't close the window tightly!" ”

"That's enough." The emperor was not sleepy at this time, so he wore a white single coat and walked barefoot to the window and looked out.

The front hall of Weiyang Palace is built on Longshou Mountain, the front small hall, the middle hall and the apse Xuan Room rise in turn like steps, the main room behind the Xuan Room Hall is even more condescending, as high as dozens of zhang, plus the night guard, almost no one can climb up. The emperor was calm on the surface, but he was not completely relieved until he saw the difference in height between the main room and the ground by the window.

"Whoever closes the window tonight will not be used to serve in the future."

"Yui." Mu Shun walked behind the emperor, put a coat on the emperor, looked at the emperor's thin body, and felt a little distressed; "The country's illness is just right, and the wind is strong by the window, so be careful not to catch a cold again."

The emperor knew that this body was too weak to withstand the wind blowing at night, otherwise he really wanted to go out for a walk at night, such as going to Bailiangtai to sing in the wind and return with the moon. He couldn't get enough of looking at the bright moon in the sky, the stars were hidden tonight, and only a lone jade disk was flying in the sky and clouds. There is a faint halo around the perfect moon, and the moonlight is bright, shining in all directions, illuminating the dark Weiyang Palace and the entire Chang'an City.

The gale came from the south, and the layers of black clouds gradually approached the bright moon in the sky by taking advantage of the night, like a tengu waiting for an opportunity to devour the moon.

"It's going to change." The Emperor muttered to himself.

Mu Shun was accidentally distracted just now, and he didn't pay attention to what the emperor said: "Huh? ”

Seeing Mu Shun's hair, the emperor didn't care, but smiled and said, "Who is on duty in Shangshutai and Chengminglu tonight?" ”

When Mu Shun heard this, he knew that the emperor was really not happy to sleep this time, and he was going to find someone to talk all night. The Chang Dynasty, also known as the Outer Dynasty and the Japanese Dynasty, is a dynasty every five days, which is a system that has gradually formed since the beginning of Emperor Xiaoxuan. Since the emperors of previous dynasties gradually strengthened the authority of Shangshutai, the Chang Dynasty was only a routine court meeting of the courtiers to the emperor, and generally did not discuss any major confidential state affairs, but only after the court meeting, the emperor summoned his cronies and officials to hold a small court meeting in the Xuan Room to discuss secrets, also known as the inner court.

Nevertheless, the emperor had to get up at the end of the day and rush to the bed of the middle temple to meet the courtiers before the hour. If the emperor goes to bed late today, tomorrow Mu Shun estimates that it will take a while to coax the emperor up, and maybe he will have to get up more than usual.

The emperor has a gentle temper on weekdays, never punishes slaves and maids for no reason, and when he is in a good mood, even a Zhonghuangmen can make a few jokes with him, and he is deeply loved by the eunuchs and maids in the palace. But the emperor is not good at all, that is, he has the gas to get up, which is a habit he brought from his previous life, and he didn't expect that the emperor in this life also has this problem. Whenever the emperor was woken up before he slept well, he started a fire, which made Mu Shun and other close ministers see what the wrath of the Son of Heaven was.

Thinking of this, Mu Shun couldn't say anything, the emperor's prestige is getting heavier, and he is becoming more and more mature, so he must not be coaxed as a child, so he had to say truthfully: "The country, according to the arrangement on the rotation list, tonight in Chengming Lu is Liu Ai, who is in the waiter, and the Huangmen waiter shoots Jian." Where is Shangshutai, it is Shang Shulang, Wu Shuo and Pan Xuan. ”
