In the purple (forbidden) city, Zhang Cheng, the eunuch of the celebrant and the pen, got down from the soft sedan chair, held the book in his hand, and frowned and walked into the courtyard of the imperial study. When he walked in www.biquge.info the eunuch guarding the door announced loudly, Zhao Jinliang greeted him from the imperial study, and Zhang Cheng walked up to him and asked in a low voice:

"Have you had dinner?"

"The food box was sent over from the imperial dining room, and the long-lived master only said that he was not hungry."

Hearing Zhao Jinliang's answer, Zhang Cheng subconsciously looked at the sky, and when he saw the stars and the moon in the sky, Zhang Cheng shook his head and said in a low voice:

"Why don't you go to Zheng Niangniang's side at this time."

Zhao Jinliang reported that Emperor Wanli responded inside, Zhang Cheng walked in, the imperial study was brightly lit, and there were nine lanterns with butter candles hanging inside, and even the room was a little hot.

Emperor Wanli sat behind the bookcase, there were a few delicate side dishes on the bookcase, and the spoon was placed in the bowl, Zhang Cheng saw the salute and walked to him, but the food on the table did not move, Zhang Cheng was stunned, and said:

"Long live Lord, if you don't eat, you will hurt your body, let's eat a little"

After he finished speaking, Emperor Wanli didn't react, and after a while, he shook his head and said in a deep voice:

"In the daily report of the Department of Public Security, the widow remembers a lot of words about Mr. Zhang's inner house, and Zhang accompanied you to find it, and the widow wants to see it."

Zhang Cheng was stunned, and hurriedly bowed down to receive the order, if Emperor Wanli said that he gritted his teeth, or his voice was gloomy, this would be understandable, but Fang Cai's tone was calm and abnormal, there was no emotional fluctuation, and Zhang Cheng, who consciously knew Emperor Wanli well, was also a little inexplicably apprehensive, and hurriedly agreed. The documents that the Public Security Division needs to report to the Wanli Emperor's side are all blocked, but they are managed by Zou Yi, the head of Jiukelang, and the imperial study will send someone over, and it will not delay the work to get it back.

During this period, Zhang Cheng persuaded him twice to let Emperor Wanli eat, Emperor Wanli just said that he was not hungry, and when the emperor did not eat on weekdays, everyone could also hear the tone, but today he said that he was not hungry, as if he was really not hungry, but the more this was the case, the more Zhang Cheng knew that it was wrong.

Zhang Cheng was in a hurry, but Emperor Wanli was still as usual, picked up the notebook and approved two copies, and asked indifferently:

"The widow listened to Xiaoliang say that Zhang Banban's house had some (hair) problems, and let the people of the direct palace supervisor repair it, what's going on?"

Although he didn't understand why Emperor Wanli asked this, Zhang Cheng still replied truthfully:

"Long live the old man's worries, the wall of the place next to the slave maid's residence where the books are placed leaked, and I am afraid that the wind and rain will come in and damage the scrolls, so I arranged for someone to repair them, they are all old houses, and the wood can't withstand it."

Emperor Wanli shook his head with a smile, did not continue the topic, the emperor asked for documents in the evening, Zou Yi did not dare to slack off, and led several eunuchs to quickly select the relevant documents and send them.

Zhang Ge Lao is naturally the center of the topic in the Jingshi, and there are really a lot of strange rumors in the streets and alleys, although the documents on the side of the Public Security Department have been screened, there are still a lot of them.

There was a hurry, and after Zou Yi sorted it out, he put the scroll on the soft sedan chair, and several little eunuchs carried it, and he followed while trotting all the way to the imperial study. Emperor Wanli's daily routine, everyone almost knows that Zou Yi also felt strange that he didn't go to Concubine Zheng Guifei in the imperial study so late.

The scrolls were sent in one by one, Zou Yi was waiting in the courtyard, and when he was just wondering if he was leaving, he saw the curtain open, and Zhao Jinliang came out and said:

"Grandpa Zou, long live the Lord to pass you in"

Zou Yi hurriedly walked in, first knocked, got up and subconsciously glanced at the other side, seeing that Emperor Wanli was doing everything as usual, Zhang Cheng's expression was quite solemn, and he couldn't help but wonder a little, Emperor Wanli asked:

"The widow remembers that some documents say that Zhang Ge's old house is in the house, yes, it is that a handsome scholar was put on his head with a pocket, and then he was tricked into coming to the Heavenly Palace and sleeping with those fairies......."

Zou Yi glanced at Zhang Cheng suspiciously, but now his father-in-law was also full of consternation, Emperor Wanli smiled, what the emperor said, although there is a lot of news about the Department of Public Security, but Zou Yi really has an impression of this matter.

The Beijing masters and scholars all say that a certain person from Nanzhili, tall and handsome, was invited to a tavern to drink one day with an anonymous post, and the guests did not arrive when drinking, but the wine and food were complete, and the person was not vigilant, and fell asleep after drinking.

When he woke up, he was already in a gorgeous mansion, and all he saw were stunning beauties, and in addition to the Han women, there were still exotic customs, which made people stunned, and those women told him that he had come to the Heavenly Palace, and that the family was also rich, but they had never seen such a gorgeous and luxurious place, and there were so many stunning colors, so they believed it.

All day long, very free, but sometimes you have to live underground, it is said that what is the "cave house" where it is, after more than ten days, he drank and was drowsy, but when he woke up on the street, the whole person was wrapped in a cloth bag full of strange fragrance, and there were more than 100 taels of gold around him. Whether it was a dream or a reality, this person was also confused, and when he went to find a tavern that drunk himself, there was no tavern on that street, and the tavern was just an uninhabited house.

This kind of behavior, people really think that they have gone to the Heavenly Palace, who everywhere shows off what they have seen and heard, when they boast in a restaurant in Shima Lane, they were heard by a certain family next door, and said with a smile, when Concubine Jia of the Western Jin Dynasty entered the palace in a coma market, it was not also a means all the way, you don't know that you entered the inner house of that wealthy family.

Filthy other women's relatives, there are such beautiful women's inner houses, and they are such luxurious and beautiful people, how can they be offended, this person is afraid of being killed, and he fled from Beijing that night, and has not been seen since.

According to the various situations he described, everyone was guessing that it was Zhang Ge Lao's mansion.

When this rumor was presented, Emperor Wanli looked at it quite carefully, but the focus of this rumor was how to raise people in the "Heavenly Palace" absurdity, and the others were omitted, Zou Yi guessed that the reason why Emperor Wanli looked at it carefully at that time may be similar to the mind of looking at the Spring Palace painting.

But why did he ask again today, Zou Yi was confused, since he knew something, it was much easier to find and check, and he found it in a short time, and handed it to Emperor Wanli with both hands.

Emperor Wanli opened it with a smile, Zou Yi pondered for a while, stepped forward and said:

"Long live Lord, the next three pages of this volume were added at the end of last year, and the Department of Public Security sent someone to check, the so-called lifting people is a fictitious thing, but there are two nuns walking on the old mansion of Zhang Ge, and often do some money lending and sending letters for the inner house, these two nuns have a good relationship outside, and they told what they saw and heard in Zhang's mansion, and they made up stories that were good at each other, and they were written into a booklet and sold at a high price, and these two pairs of adulterers and women Shuntianfu have been re-run......"

Emperor Wanli looked at the scroll carefully, listened to Zou Yi's words, nodded his head, and asked with a casual smile:

"This Tessie Ji, the Siamese girl, and the Goryeo noblewoman, this is true, right?"

"Long live the Lord, this ...... It shouldn't be ......"

"Seeing that the heavenly maiden wears a ring of clothes, it is not like all in the world, and when I talk about it afterwards, I think it is worth more than a thousand gold, otherwise I can't have it, tsk, that is to say, these ladies in the old mansion of Zhang Ge are dressed like this, isn't it?"

Zou Yi has looked at Zhang Cheng for the third time, Zhang Cheng's expression did not move, it seemed that his jaw was a little down, Zou Yi wanted to see clearly, but Emperor Wanli looked up with a smile, he quickly lowered his head and hesitated, and said:

"Slave maid...... The slave maid has never seen it in person, but Zhang Ge's old inner house is extremely luxurious, and there are many rumors about this, which should be true. ”

"The pavilions and buildings I saw are all like the Heavenly Palace, and when I think about it afterwards, what can the Heavenly Palace be, I'm afraid it's better to be, hehe, I don't need to ask you, the widow visited the patient today, and saw the appearance of Mr. Zhang's mansion, it is indeed ...... ....... indeed"

Zou Yi didn't know how to answer, just bowed down, Wanli turned his head to Zhang Cheng with a smile and said:

"Zhang Banban, the bed tent of the widow and the concubine is just a copper hook, the material is said to be the best light yarn purchased by the royal supervisor in Jiangnan, Mr. Zhang's side is a silver hook, the texture of the light yarn, although the widow does not understand it very well, but he also knows that it is better than the widow's use."

Zhang Cheng was stunned and wanted to open his mouth to speak, but he still bowed his head and was silent, Emperor Wanli turned his head with a smile, looked at the scroll again, only turned one page, and then stopped, as if he was stunned there.

After a while, Emperor Wanli suddenly threw the scroll in his hand fiercely, and the three eunuchs in the room all looked up, Emperor Wanli stood up from the chair, swept his arms on the table, and the dishes that had been cold on the table fell to the ground and shattered.

"Bastard"

Emperor Wanli shouted violently, several people in the house were stunned, footsteps outside sounded hurriedly, several guards ran in, and one shouted outside:

"Your Majesty, what do you command?"

This is also the rule in the palace, if the guards hear a strange reaction, Emperor Wanli stands and shouts:

"Get out of here, get out of here and guard outside"

The outside said yes and left quickly.

"Let the widow be diligent and thrifty, let the widow save only one (meat) dish on weekdays, at that time, Zhang Companion led me out to eat a bowl of braised (meat), I was very happy....... Mr. Zhang what to eat want to eat river fish, actually loaded the boat with water, fish farming sent to Beijing, let the widow not build construction, the widow and the queen mother live in an old and dilapidated house, what does Zhang Juzheng live in, what is it said in the newspaper, Qionglou Yuyu, even I look at the red house, I have been to the concubine many times, I want to be widowed and far from the woman, what does he do, what does he do"

In the end, Emperor Wanli grabbed a jade lion paperweight on the folding book, smashed it on the ground, looked left and right with red eyes, and directly overturned it:

"The Old Horseman"

Zhang Cheng, Zou Yi, and Zhao Jinliang all knelt down, and the latest chapters were updated in time
