When he arrived at the palace gate, Liu Lan's right eyelid began to beat, and he said that nothing would happen to the left wealth and the right disaster, the first time he saw the Emperor Ling alone, he felt the fear of being a companion like a tiger, and he was almost clicked by the emperor several times, this time the eyelids jumped so fast, wouldn't it be unlucky?

Liu Lan was worried in his heart, even if he was worried, he couldn't retreat now, he entered the palace gate hard, but he didn't want to be stopped by an old eunuch again, and he said very arrogantly and said with me that he led Liu Lan to turn around and didn't know where to go.

At the gate of the palace at this moment, several Xiao Zhongjuan who went to announce the decree were just about to leave, but they were stopped by a team of people who came over. ”

Dong Hou waved his hand to signal that they didn't need to be polite, and then pointed to the ∞ wan∞shu∞ba, who was far away, and said, "Who is that person?" Although the moonlight was very dark, Dong Hou still felt that the person's back was vaguely familiar, but he didn't dare to confirm whether it was Liu Lan, so he asked, and a few Xiaozhong Juan naturally didn't dare to hide it, and knew everything: "Back to His Highness, that person is Liu Lan of Youzhou Lu Longling, who was ordered to enter the palace to face the saint." ”

Sure enough, it was Liu Lan, Dong Hou nodded, looked at the direction Liu Lan was heading, was suddenly startled, and hurriedly asked, "Father won't summon Liu Lan in Wenming Palace?" ”

"Exactly."

Dong Hou Liu Xie's heart sank neutrally......

Wenming Hall is one of the bedrooms of Emperor Ling, because the east courtyard fell a huge black object in June of the first year of Guanghe (that is, 178 AD), like a round umbrella, the body in the rapid rotation to reveal a five-colored light, although there is a head. But there is no foot, and there is no tail. Like a dragon is not a dragon, it is more than 20 meters long. At that time, Xiangrui said, bad omen said one after another, so Wen Ming Hall was almost abandoned, and then there was a large-scale rebellion plague, the Son of Heaven Liu Hong got the abbot of the White Horse Temple Puci to solve the puzzle only to know that the thing that looks like a dragon is a ghost animal that is a chaotic man, and later said that Master Puci did a ritual to cut off the head of the ghost animal, but this ghost animal has moved the foundation of the Han Dynasty, although the body is dead, but the spirit is still there, and it needs to be suppressed by the true dragon of the Son of Heaven. Therefore, Emperor Ling will go to live in Wenming Hall from time to time, but this is the first time to summon foreign ministers in the inner palace, although this seems to be supreme glory, it is by no means as simple as it seems, so Liu Xie will hear that Emperor Ling was worried about him when he summoned Liu Lan in Wenming Palace.

He wanted to send someone to inquire about the news, but when he thought of the news sent by Xiaoman that day, if his father found out, even if his father really wanted to reuse Liu Lan, he was afraid that he would inevitably kill him, and once again Liu Xie stayed in front of the palace gate. Waiting for Liu Lan to appear.

When Liu Lan came to Wenming Palace, he found that there were a lot of guards and eunuchs in the courtyard, but there was not a single palace maid, carrying a wind lamp, but these eunuchs and guards who were not male or female were not very good. looked nervous, no matter how you look at it, she was a little scared, Liu Lan didn't know why. The old eunuch who followed the lead in front came to the door of Wenming Palace, and it was quiet inside. The eunuch guards who walked back and forth walked cautiously, hating to have to use their feet. I'm afraid that making a little noise will provoke the wrath of the thunder.

When he arrived at the door, the old eunuch whispered: "It's here, Liu Xian ordered to wait." Saying that, he entered the house first, and vaguely seemed to hear the eunuch whispering that Liu County's order had arrived, and he was waiting outside the hall.

At this time, the voice of the Spirit Emperor came from inside, revealing majesty: "Announce him into the palace." ”

"No."

After a while, the old eunuch came back and said to Liu Lan: "The Son of Heaven announced that you have entered the palace. ”

Liu Lan hugged his fists and said thank you, and then walked into the Wenming Palace, where the bright lights hung high, reflecting the bright lights in the hall, like daytime.

Seeing Emperor Ling, I saw dozens of halberd-holding armorers standing around the hall, and they couldn't take their eyes off it, and Liu Lan had already had the lesson of the last time, so he didn't dare to look around, and directly bowed to Emperor Ling, Emperor Ling smiled slightly, and said: "De'an, I haven't seen you for a day, do you know why you are here so late today?" ”

"I don't know."

Emperor Ling didn't let Liu Lan be exempt, just hung him like this, and said, "Liu Lan, you raise your head." ”

Liu Lan was at a loss, looked up at him, and saw that his face was radiant, as if something very happy had happened, and he was about to say something, but he didn't want Emperor Ling to take the first step and say, "Liu Lan, are you afraid of seeing me?" ”

"Sort of."

Liu Lan almost blurted out, although he closed his mouth in time, but Emperor Ling didn't understand what he meant, and laughed: "Liu Lan, dare to say that you are afraid of me, you are the first person, and if you change other ministers, you will never say it." ”

"But......" Emperor Ling's eyes were stunned, but the words changed: "Other ministers won't say this, it's because they don't have 'ghosts' in their hearts, you say this, is there something unsightly in your heart?" ”

"No, no." Liu Lan was startled, and his palms were covered with beads of sweat.

"Really?" Emperor Ling stared at Liu Lan.

The hall became silent for a while, the Spirit Emperor stared at Liu Lan like this, and Liu Lan stood in place strangely and didn't dare to move, but his heart was beating wildly, Liu Lan can not be afraid, people are swords, I am fish and meat, and the drama does not always say that the sky is unpredictable, and the right eyelid jumping today is really fulfilled.

"There is no best." Emperor Ling suddenly waved his hand: "Excuse me." ”

Whew, Liu Lan let out a long breath. Looks like he escaped.

"Liu Lan, I heard that you have lost your money since you were a child, and then joined the border army with two families, and soon after returning from the grassland, you worshiped Liu Yuanqi in Youzhou as your father-in-law?"

"Yes." Now that everyone in the world knows about this, it is not strange that it has reached the ears of the emperor, and he nodded and said: "It's just that at that time, it was the father-in-law who wanted his grandson Liu Fang to recognize the lowly position as the father-in-law, so the lowly position would recognize Yuan Qi as the father-in-law." ”

Well, Emperor Ling nodded with satisfaction: "Later, you went to the place called the mine outside Lu Longsai, and the scriptures and meanings you learned were all taught by the daughter of Yuan Qi?" ”

"Yes."

"You once had a relationship with the Seed Department Wanfu Zhuhuan brothers in the grassland."

Liu Lan was sweating profusely.

"I heard that you went out of the city today, because the Cai family girl left Luoyang and returned to Jingzhou."

"This ......" Liu Lan was terrified, everything he did in the past and now was in the hands of Emperor Ling, no matter how big or small, all of them were like treasures, which made Liu Lan feel the horror of Emperor Lingdi again, the horror of the ancient Son of Heaven.

"You love reading books and write down some notes of your own every time, right?"

Liu Lan nodded: "I will take time to watch it every day, Kong Sheng once said that learning is like sailing against the current, if you don't advance, you will retreat, and you will not dare to waste it because of your humble position." ”

"Yes, you are not only interested in Confucian classics, but also in Taoist classics.

"The kid dabbles in a lot of things."

"Then the lonely will come to test you, but you don't know that the one who is close to the heart is lonely, the one who is loyal to the relatives is dead, the sage who is close and far away is faint, the woman who is in the public is chaotic, the private is floating as an official, and the one who wins is the one who wins the game where does it come from?"

Liu Lan panicked and fell to his knees.

The Spirit Emperor was still smiling: "What, don't you know?" ”

Liu Lan didn't dare to speak, but Emperor Ling said to himself: "This sentence is from the fifth chapter of Sushu Zunyi, you shouldn't know, didn't you just send one of your subordinates to the book market yesterday to buy it and read it?" ”

Liu Lan sweated like rain, he knew that he was really finished today, no wonder there were so many guards outside the house, it turned out that they wanted to arrest him. Now Liu Lan will not succeed even if he really resists, what about the more than ten guards in the house, as soon as he makes a move here, the guards outside the house will die as soon as they come in, so it is best to be obedient now.

"Liu Lan, I called you close yesterday to let you see the Four Beasts Diagram, but I didn't expect you to be so scheming, say!" The Spirit Emperor snorted angrily, obviously in an angry manner: "Who gave you such courage?" Or did you eat the gall of the ambitious leopard! ”

"How can the kid have so much courage to figure out the holy will, it's just that the kid has heard the name of the plain book for a long time, and he accidentally skimmed it that day, so he has the heart to read."

"Flim tongue, full of excuses!"

Emperor Ling's face changed, and the so-called Long Yan was furious, and shouted: "Come on, send me this bullying Liu Lan to prison!" ”

Things were obviously worse than expected, because the guards around Emperor Ling didn't move, but outside the hall, dozens of guards rushed in with knives in an instant, not to mention resistance, even if there was a slight movement, they would be killed immediately, tied up and captured, Liu Lan shouted wronged, but Emperor Ling didn't listen, turned around and left, and Liu Lan was taken down from Wenming Palace.

was not killed immediately, this is the best news for Liu Lan at this moment, but looking at the angry appearance of the Spirit Emperor, he wants to live, and there is not much hope, but seeing that the big event can be expected to be so hanging, Liu Lan is really unwilling in his heart, but at this moment, what else can he do to resolve today's misfortune and let the Spirit Emperor let himself go?

Emperor Ling turned back to the inner room, as expected, in the inner room, it was still the bald abbot of the White Horse Temple, Puci, he didn't look at Emperor Ling, he played chess, and when the chess pieces fell, he suddenly said: "This is a test for him?" ”

"How so?" The Spirit Emperor's mood was not at all like the previous rage, but he looked very happy, watching Pu Ci play alone, stroking his hair and strolling leisurely in the hall.

"If you want to kill him, why don't you just take his life and send him to prison?"

"It's not that I don't kill him, but after all, he has merit in entering Beijing, if I kill him now, no matter what the crime is, it will inevitably cause criticism from the world, so I want to lock him up first, see the reaction of the court, and then make a conclusion." The Spirit Emperor suddenly clenched his palm, no matter how he looked at it, it seemed that no matter how cunning and bloodthirsty you were as a hungry wolf, you would never be able to escape from the palm of my hand.

Puci Luozi's palm was stunned, although he didn't look at the expression of the Spirit Emperor, but the murderous aura was really experienced.

Pu Ci slowly closed his eyes, he didn't know if what he had done was right, whether he could subtly change him, at this moment, he was hesitant in his heart. (To be continued......)
