When the family met last night, it was already late, and after talking for a while, they should go back to their respective rooms to sleep, but Dad insisted on holding Wang Xian and asking him to sleep with him tonight. This decision not only made Wang Xian very depressed, but even the old lady and Yinling and the others couldn't stand it, 'Dead old man, what can't you say during the day?' Do you have to disturb the reunion of the young couple? ’

"What do the women know?" Although Wang Xian wanted to comfort his frightened wife, seeing his father like this, he knew that something must be wrong with him. He instructed Yinling and Lingxiao to accompany Lin Qing'er today, and he and his father went to the study.

When he arrived at the study, Dad made strong tea with his own hands, and Wang Xian was puzzled: "Isn't Dad going to sleep?" ”

"I don't sleep, I haven't done anything, and I can't sleep well." Wang Xingye took out a wooden box from the drawer and ordered: "You go to the bed and lie down, and then pick up your shirt." ”

Wang Xian glanced at the inside of the box and said with a smile: "When did Dad learn acupuncture?" ”

"Acupuncture fart." Wang Xingye squinted his eyes and said, "Lao Tzu wants to give you a tattoo!" ”

"Tattooing?" Wang Xian's eyes widened and said, "Why? ”

"Aren't you worried?" Wang Xingye squinted his eyes while mixing the medicinal powder in the box: "Anyway, I'm worried. ”

"Worried about what?"

"You are a big man now, it is said that your father and I have no experience in the yamen can no longer teach you......" Wang Xingye sighed a little.

"Look at what Dad said, you have crossed the bridge more than I walked, and you ate more salt than I ate rice." Wang Xian hurriedly complimented.

"Fart, you treat me as a pickle!" Wang Xingye rolled his eyes and said: "But your father and I have never eaten pork, I have always seen pigs run, I think you are now a bit similar to Yang Dezu in "Three Kingdoms". "Daddy Wang's level of strategy is all from Mr. Luo's Three Kingdoms. After more than ten years of repeated reading, I have long been able to learn and use it.

"Who's that?" Wang Xian was stunned.

"It's that clever Yang Xiu." Wang Xingye said.

"That's different, Yang Xiu is with the wrong person." Wang Xian said disapprerovingly.

"It was Cao Mengde who killed him, not Cao Zihuan." Wang Xingye said quietly.

Wang Xian broke out in a cold sweat, and his father was a bystander, and he really hit the nail on the head - he charged forward for the prince all day long, and the better his performance was, the more unhappy the emperor was, right?

After all, he was an official of the Ming Dynasty, where did he put the emperor?

Thinking of the murderous Yongle Emperor, Wang Xian Khan was like a pulp, and he couldn't stop it.

Seeing that his son listened, Wang Xingye was very relieved: "Get down, tattoo a few words for your father, and save your life at a critical moment!" ”

"What do you want to tattoo?"

"It's not going to be 'here for a trip,'" Dad said with a needle, and Wang Xian almost screamed in pain.

"Don't move, be careful of the stabs." Dad held him down, but he was a little weak-hearted, alas, he said that forty-three passed the eye pass, which was really true, this old eye was dizzy and .......

The next day, Wang Xian learned that a fire broke out in the Dengshan Mountain outside the gate at noon last night, and nearly 1,000 people died in a hurry, including many high-ranking officials and nobles. I heard that even the emperor's favorite general, the governor and Zhima Wang, who had just made great contributions in the battle of Hulan and Sudden Temperature, died in this scene, which is really embarrassing. I also heard that the emperor thought that the heavens were immoral, and he was afraid to repair the province, so that all the yamen were stopped from sending objects to relieve the people's strength.

As soon as Wang Xian entered the city yesterday, he asked people to hand over the handbook of the reply to the General Administration Department...... Originally, according to the rules, when Qin sent back to Beijing, he should kneel outside the noon gate and wait for the emperor to summon him, but outside the noon gate became a fire ground, and he had to wait for the decree at home. I thought that if the emperor wanted to fast, he would not summon himself for the time being, but who knew that Lu Dao had a decree that the eunuch announced that he would enter the palace in the afternoon, and Wang Xian hurriedly asked people to put on official clothes and ride to the palace gate.

When passing through Yuqian Street, the officials and people of Ying Tianfu were still busy, and the burned and ruined Dengshan had been demolished, and they were laboriously cleaning the blackened ground with hot water and mopping. Wang Xian got off the horse, followed the eunuch to the noon gate, and was relieved when he entered the inner house.

The eunuch secretly wondered, and laughed quietly: "People are nervous when they enter the inner house, but adults are the opposite." ”

"Xia Guan was also in the fire yesterday." Wang Xian sighed.

The eunuch of the decree understood, nodded and stopped talking, and took Wang Xian into the noon gate, crossed the inner Wulong Bridge, entered the Fengtian Gate, passed through the three major halls, and did not stop in front of a palace until Wang Xian was dizzy. Wang Xian felt that if no one led him out, he would definitely get lost......

The eunuch told Wang Xian to wait, went in by himself, and came out to lead Wang Xian in after a while. Before entering, he whispered: "The emperor has been in a bad mood recently, and when the adults play right, don't say what you shouldn't say." Wang Xian saw his frightened look, feeling that he was not reminding himself, but begging, so he had to nod.

The eunuch led him into the palace gate, and as soon as he entered the palace gate, it was like stepping into another world, and the eunuch didn't even dare to raise his head, and walked cautiously, not daring to make a sound. Not only him, but also the palace maids and eunuchs who were standing outside the palace also held their breath and were silent, and the needles could be heard in the huge palace, and the eunuch led Wang Xian into the palace, let him kneel down in front of a veil, and he stepped forward and whispered: "Long live the lord, Wang Xian is here." ”

Wang Xian immediately kowtowed in front of the veil and said: "Chen Qin sent Shanxi to pacify Wang Xian, knock to see my emperor, long live, long live, long live." ”

After a long while, a deep and majestic voice said, "Come in." ”

A palace maid opened the curtain left and right, Wang Xian quickly bowed his head and got up, entered the inner palace, and knelt down again......

Because it was fasting, Emperor Yongle did not wear a dragon robe, but wore a Songjiang cotton robe printed with dragon pattern dark flowers, and did not sit on a dragon chair, but stood in front of a statue of Emperor Zhenwu with his hands. Before he could speak, the deep and fierce imperial aura had already made Wang Xian's heart jump suddenly.

This is the first time Wang Xian has had close contact with Emperor Yongle, and he has seen it twice before, both in the middle of military parades and marches, separated by a distance of more than ten or dozens of zhang, and it is not real at all. But this legendary emperor has already left a deep imprint in Wang Xian's heart. Not to mention the true and false legends in the past, just say that Wang Xian's comfortable career in Fuyang County was broken by this emperor...... Of course, the emperor doesn't know who he Wang Xian is, but a thought and a will of the emperor will change the trajectory of thousands of people's lives. Wang Xian often thinks that if it weren't for Hu Tong's trip to Fuyang, he might still be the Fuyang official who deceived his superiors and subordinates and pretended to be public and private. What's so bad about being a snake who counts money and has cramps in his hands and bullies men and women? It's better than standing on the cusp of the storm like now, and being exhausted all day long, right?

"Look up." Zhu Di spoke, and Wang Xian hurriedly straightened up and raised his face. finally saw the true face of the Yongle Emperor...... This is the Yongle Emperor with Tianxian in his mouth and a good palm in his hand! Damn, isn't it just an old version of the little black man? That face and Zhu Zhanji were carved out of the same mold, but there were too many colors of wind and frost, years and knives, and too much majesty that Zhu Zhanji did not have.

Wang Xian looked at the emperor, and the emperor was also looking at him curiously, wanting to see what was so good about this kid who was favored by Yao Guangxiao? Looking at it, that is, an ordinary person, Zhu Di said slowly: "This trip to Shanxi, Aiqing has worked hard." ”

"It is the duty of a minister to serve the country loyally." Wang Xian said busily.

"I heard that you led the army to attack Guangling on a snowy night, caught the White Lotus Sect army by surprise, and used it to appease and use it, and took down Liu Zijin, who was helpless with hundreds of thousands of troops, in one fell swoop." Zhu Di praised: "The battle was fought very well. ”

"This battle can be won by a big deal, thanks to the emperor's wisdom and martial arts, relying on His Royal Highness Taisun to strategize and command, and rely on the young army soldiers to sacrifice their lives and forget death." Wang Xian hurriedly said modestly: "And God bless the Ming Dynasty, the enemy army happened to have internal strife, which made the battle of my heavenly army much easier." ”

"What does this have to do with my Wise Martial Arts?" Zhu Di sneered. If Wang Xian doesn't answer well, a hat of 'whiskers and horses' will be buttoned up.

"At first, Weichen didn't understand why the emperor was slow to hold his troops, but later when he came to Shanxi, he slowly realized the loftiness of the holy will, and it turned out that the emperor was trying to capture the old people." Wang Xian said busily.

"Tell me, why do you want to get away with it?" Zhu Di asked with interest.

"The emperor's holy light is like a torch, and he can see through at a glance that the White Lotus Demon is a group of rabble, and he knows that they can still coexist in times of crisis, and once they relax, they will inevitably be in civil strife and slack in their defense. If you attack again at this time, you can naturally get twice the result with half the effort. Wang Xian said with a serious face: "It is precisely because Weichen has realized a little holy will that he dares to dare to suggest His Royal Highness Taisun and make a surprise attack to conquer Guangling." ”

"Ha Lu haha...... Zhu Di laughed loudly, although he knew that Wang Xian was patting on the back, but Wang Xian's fart was too comfortable, which made Emperor Yongle, who had been depressed for a long time, feel a lot more comfortable.

Those palace people on the side of Shi Li secretly breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts and said, they should have survived it again today......

But they obviously underestimated the emperor's uncertainties, and the next moment Zhu Di held back his smile and said coldly: "But did you go to Shanxi to fight?" ”

"The minister is ordered to investigate and handle the Shanxi military rations case." Wang Xian's heart sank, and he scolded secretly, didn't you order me to be a counselor for military affairs? However, the other party is His Majesty the Emperor, who has a heavenly constitution in his mouth, and is obviously not the object of his reasoning.

"How's the errand?" Zhu Di's eyes flashed with cold light, staring at Wang Xiandao tightly.

Wang Xian's back was wet, and he knew that this matter couldn't be finished like this...... The incident in Shanxi almost caused the emperor's army to starve to death on the grassland, and he just thought about it after killing Zhang Chun, and treated the emperor as a fool?

"Minister...... The closing statement has been played to the emperor. Wang Xian felt that he had changed the tone of his speech.

"Wang Xian, dare to swear in front of me," Zhu Di said expressionlessly: "Every word on the recital, is there no deception to me?" ”
