Chapter 754: Heavenly Face
Bi Lan finally closed her wide mouth again, and thought again, Qiuming is now so famous, and Dengzhou is also a rich party, so it seems that he is very good. Since he has become Zhao Zhong's righteous son, then we will naturally become his uncle, and this advantage cannot be ignored.
Sure enough, under Zhao Zhong's hint, Qiu Ming had to call Bi Lan uncle aggrievedly. Bi Lan was so happy that the lines on her head were opened. Zhao Zhong immediately pushed the boat down the river and said: "You see this kid called you uncle for the first time, you are always embarrassed not to even give a meeting gift, right?" ”
Bi Lan was taken aback, people like them are all cut off from their grandchildren, so they take things outside their bodies very seriously, and it is even more difficult to get some money out of their hands than to ascend to the sky. However, he was still counting on getting some benefits from Qiu Ming, and now he didn't dare to be too stingy, so he stubbornly said: "Well, the meeting gift is naturally to be given, but I'm a poor man, Qiu Xiaolang, what do you want?" ”
Qiu Ming understood his thoughts as soon as he heard the tone, and thought for a while: "The overturned car made by my uncle should have drawings, right?" Can you give me a copy? ”
"Overturned?" Bi Lan's eyes widened: "What do you want to do with that?" ”
"My nephew had a trip to Changsha some time ago, Jingxiang Nine Counties should have been a land of abundant grain and rich people, fish and rice, but now it has been a famine for many years, and the people are not able to make a living, in my opinion, it is because of the lack of water conservancy and no production. If we can vigorously promote rice planting, we should strengthen the irrigation ...... fields. ”
"Wait, what does this have to do with a rollover? Let's do the overturning car just to facilitate the palace to sweep and talk about the sky and smile, but not for the irrigation of the fields. ”
Qiu Ming Zhengse said: "Intentionally planting flowers and flowers are not alive, unintentionally planting willows and willows, although my uncle is unintentional, but this overturned car can take water from the river canal, water the grass beside the road, both irrigation and drainage, it is really a great invention that benefits the people's livelihood." In the future, the people will remain in history, and future generations will rarely praise their uncles. ”
These middle servants are usually powerful and powerful, and they make enough money, and what they worry about every day is that there is no successor, and they are immediately forgotten after a hundred years. As soon as he heard that he could leave a name in history, Bi Lan's eyes began to shine, and Zhao Zhong lost no time in persuading: "Old Bi, this is a good thing that will benefit the people and will last for centuries, but it is difficult to find it with a lantern, what are you hesitating about?" ”
Bi Lan said with a smile on his face: "Yes, yes, Zhao's father-in-law has received a good son, and overturning is not a rare thing, if you want the drawings, we will give it to you." But Your Majesty is about to see you, so you can go with us first. ”
Turning the corner, he couldn't see Zhao Zhong's figure, Bi Lan put away his smile: "Since you called us uncle, we have to mention you, there are many rules in the palace, but you are no more comfortable than you in Dengzhou, if you say half a wrong sentence, be careful about your skin." ”
Qiu Ming nodded again and again and asked, "Uncle does you know why Your Majesty wants to see me?" ”
Bi Lan sighed and said: "It's not because of the Taobao incident yesterday, the Son of Heaven listened to me and Lao Jiao's words, and couldn't sleep at night, so he specially came to you to ask." ”
Can't sleep at night? When I came in in the morning, he hadn't gotten up yet. Qiu Ming wanted to ask something, but Bi Lan asked first: "Did your subordinate named Huang Zhong come to Luoyang with you?" ”
After receiving an affirmative reply, Bi Lan said: "Last time in Songshan, our family had to be rescued by Huang Zhong to escape his life, speaking of which, we owe him a favor." If there is any difficulty in the future, let him just come to me, and our family will make the decision for him. Qiu Ming was secretly happy in his heart, and thanked Huang Zhong with a smile.
The windows on both sides of the Chongzheng Hall are tightly covered with black curtains, so that no sunlight comes in, and in the flickering candlelight, Liu Hong, the Son of Heaven, is standing high on the throne, looking both mysterious and a little lonely. Qiuming leaned over and walked quickly to the front of Danqi, raised his hand to increase his forehead, knelt on his knees and bowed slowly, Bi Lan followed behind him and said: "Qiuming, the county seat of Dengzhou, worship the Son of Heaven." ”
After waiting for a while, he didn't hear Liu Hong's order to calm down, and Qiu Ming's heart tightened suddenly. Tianwei is unpredictable, but the Son of Heaven is dissatisfied with himself, so he can't afford to kneel for a long time. But he didn't do anything to anger him, could it be that Queen He's matter was exposed? No, in that case, it will be directly the Tiger Ben Army to kill the door, how can you still announce that you have entered the palace? Do you have to confront this kind of thing?
Tyumen was thinking wildly when he suddenly heard an even snoring from the throne. Bi Lan was embarrassed and said: "Your Majesty has every opportunity, and I have waited for you for a long time, and there are people who are tired and take a nap." "How dare Tyumen say anything? still sat upright on his knees, not daring to show the slightest discoloration.
Bi Lan called a few times in a row, and Liu Hong woke up slowly, and asked in the first sentence, "What time is it?" ”
Bi Lan lowered his hand and responded: "Back to Your Majesty, it's too late." ”
Liu Hong yawned loudly: "Recently, for some reason, I feel sleepy at this time, and I don't sleep very comfortably here, so I'd better go back to the dormitory to sleep." ”
Bi Lan hurriedly said: "Your Majesty just sent someone to announce Qiuming, it has already arrived, it is better to ask him a few words before going to rest." ”
Only then did Liu Hong notice Qiu Ming's existence: "Is Qiu Qing here?" Look up and let me see. ”
Qiu Ming raised his head in response, his eyes quickly swept over Liu Hong's face, and although he immediately lowered his head respectfully, his heart was already turning upside down.
When he came to Luoyang last year, the Son of Heaven that Qiu Ming knew was full of energy and playfulness, and he opened the West Garden to sell officials to make money, and he set up a naked tour hall to make money, and he was greedy for money and lustful. But Liu Hong, who I saw today, had a gray face and was described as haggard, and there seemed to be some dark spots on his face in the light and shadow, as if he had aged forty or fifty years all of a sudden.
Qiu Ming was surprised, according to historical records, Emperor Liu Hong still has two or three years to live, why is he now on the verge of death? Now that the Hou of Hefei has not been removed, Liu Hong must not die like this, otherwise Qiuming will only let the boat go to sea to escape the revenge of the Hou of Hefei and his gang.
Liu Hong looked at Qiu Ming with distracted eyes, and suddenly smiled: "Qiu Ming? I remember you, you are a great loyal servant. ”
Thunder, rain and dew are all emperors' favors, not to mention the praise of the Son of Heaven, Qiu Ming knelt down and kowtowed again, but muttered in his heart, if you know that I am the old king of the family next door, I wonder if you will praise me for being a loyal minister?
Liu Hong was a little excited, and his face was a little more bloody: "The Taobao idea you came up with is very good, and I am very happy, but I heard that someone has been making trouble in the market recently, do you know what's going on?" ”
