I'm really not the carpenter emperor

In the morning of the next day, Zhu Youxiao sat up from the dragon bed, and the people standing beside him hurriedly pulled back the curtain of the bed.

The sun shone in, and the dust drifted in the morning light in the room. The eunuch Wang Tigan, the supervisor of ceremonies, hurriedly brought a cup of warm tea.

Zhu Youxiao hesitated for a moment, took a sip of the warm tea silently, rinsed his mouth and spat it into the spittoon under the bed.

Wang Tiqian picked up the warm tea, saluted without saying a word, and turned around to retreat.

"Wait a minute!" Zhu Youxiao said suddenly, and the startled Wang Tigan immediately turned around and knelt on the ground trembling.

Seeing his frightened look, Zhu Youxiao couldn't help laughing, so he asked: "Wang Tigan, do you remember when I hit you last time?"

Hearing this, Wang Tiqian seemed to feel the pain around his mouth, and hurriedly said: "Slaves are not noble, how can they remember."

"Good boy, call some young eunuchs and come with me."

Not long after, Wang Tigan called a few young eunuchs, and as soon as he arrived outside the Xinuang Pavilion, he saw the emperor waving to him inside.

Several people rushed in and saluted.

"You are all kneeling." Zhu Youxiao held it in his hand, took off the saber hanging on the wall, stroked the sharp sword edge with one hand, and said:

"Do you know what I'm calling you to do?"

"Some things can't be done by Wei Zhongxian alone." Having said that, Zhu Youxiao raised his eyebrows and looked at them.

When Wang Tiqian heard this, he almost cried out on the spot.

He has been in the palace for more than ten years, learning to read and write in the palace, serving this and that, not for today's day, the day when he is valued by the emperor and becomes prosperous.

Before Zhu Youxiao finished speaking, he hurriedly knelt and took a few steps forward, saying: "My lord, I know what troubles you, I am willing to share your worries for the emperor!"

Zhu Youxiao smiled lightly, and teased: "You eunuchs are really just like the civil servants said. They are useless except to make me happy."

Wang Tiqian said with a flattering smile: "Civil officials can see clearly, and the emperor can see clearly."

"The servant girl is really useless except for guessing the Sacred Heart."

"Haha, dog, I like you." Zhu Youxiao smiled again, looked at Wang Tigan, and asked softly, "Can you dance swords? Give me a lesson?"

At this time, even if you don't know how to dance a sword, you have to bite the bullet.

Wang Tigan smiled obsequiously, got Zhu Youxiao's approval, took the sword from the latter's hand, and began to swing and dance in the Nuan Pavilion.

Zhu Youxiao sat back at the imperial case, looked at the memorials on the table with cold eyes, and when he looked at Wang Tigan again, he was already a little approachable and easy-going.

After a long time, Zhu Youxiao sighed: "It's a pity, with your ability, you shouldn't be in the palace, you should go out to inspect the army."

Hearing this, Wang Tigan danced more hastily, and Zhu Youxiao naturally understood his thoughts, and suddenly burst into laughter.

"Can you all know how to dance swords?" Zhu Youxiao asked suddenly.

At this moment, Wang Tigan stopped his movements, looked at the little eunuchs lying on the side, and kept winking.

Zhu Youxiao tilted his head, pretending he didn't see it.

"Returning to the emperor's grandfather, the younger ones are proficient in swords and swords."

Zhu Youxiao said "oh" when he heard the words, took the sword from Wang Tigan who was out of breath, and said contemptuously:

"Your swords are too soft to dance. The supervisor is okay, but the battle is not enough."

How can Wang Ti not understand that this is the emperor beating himself, don't restrain the frontier generals after he goes out, and make things convenient for them.

This is the true meaning of the emperor sending himself out to supervise the army.

It's just that Wang Tiqian and the little eunuchs didn't know how to answer these words.

At this time, Zhu Youxiao tightly grasped the sword in his hand, waved the wide sleeves of the dragon robe, turned around suddenly, and cut a little eunuch who was lying on the ground in two with his sword.

The little eunuch turned pale with fright, and slumped on the ground, but Zhu Youxiao threw the sword to the ground with a sneer on his face, and sat back down.

Zhu Youxiao sat in the upper position for a long time, and breathed out softly:

"I want to set up a capital supervisor mansion, with military supervisors, mine supervisors, etc., each divided into left and right supervisors, Wang Tigan, you are the first left military supervisor, and half of the people you summoned today are military supervisors. Half of them are mine supervisors."

"I only ask your supervisors to report in secret. If there is anyone who hinders the frontier generals and hinders the war, if I know about it, I will never tolerate it."

The emperor's attitude on this matter made all the first batch of prison guards tremble with fear.

"Mine supervisor, let's implement it in Zhili first, and military supervisor Datong, Xuanfu, Jizhen and Jiangnan will each send three people. If there are more, we will do it slowly."

"As for Dongjiang, Wang Tiqian, you go there yourself to see if what Mao Wenlong said is true."

Wang Tiqian trembled when he heard the words, although he knew in his heart that Liaodong's bitter cold places are not for ordinary people, he still said:

"Slaves take orders."

"Go down, I'm tired." Zhu Youxiao supported his head with one hand, looking drowsy.

When Wang Tiqian retreated, Zhu Youxiao was silent for a moment, and said: "The war in Eastern Liaodong is so urgent, Denglai and southern Liaoning are separated by a river, I intend to set up a governor in Denglai."

"Decree to ask the cabinet to propose a candidate."

Seeing the little eunuch Xuanzhi running out, Zhu Youxiao said vaguely again: "Tell Wei Zhongxian that the left mine supervisor of the Dujian Mansion has also been taken by him."

In fact, Zhu Youxiao also knew that this was a "faint trick".

But at this time, this is exactly what many people want to see.

Mao Wenlong took the initiative to invite the eunuchs to enter the island. This was a signal that he was not ignorant of the greed of these eunuchs.

However, compared with the no-bottom-line approach of the civil servants, the obvious greed of the eunuchs for money is more beneficial than harmful to the generals.

The function of the Metropolitan Government, Zhu Youxiao also said, is dedicated to supervision, to go to Beijing closely, and not to hinder the strategy of the local generals.

If something really happened, Zhu Youxiao would know in time.

……

At nightfall, before Wang Tiqian left, he summoned the first batch of six Dujians sent by the Dujian Mansion together.

Seeing that the number of people was all there, he cut to the chase and said:

"Today, the emperor set up the capital prison mansion and asked everyone to go out to serve as the capital prison. Do you understand what's going on?"

A little eunuch named Xu Yingyuan laughed and said: "Understood, the emperor asked us to inquire about those things that civil servants would not report."

"Your boy is quite clever, but you have to use it in the right place!" Wang Tiqian shook his head, "The emperor sent all the prisons out, not to make us embarrass his old man."

"It doesn't matter if you pay less for the money you deserve, but if anyone wants to lead troops to restrict the place, don't blame me for being merciless."

The rest of the small metropolitans all laughed.

"Where else, I am grateful to have this job."

Wang Tiqian snorted coldly: "It's good that you know, let's all go away."

Chapter 55 The Chief of Rituals

The appearance of the Dujian Mansion stirred up the fragile nerves of the Donglin Party.

The snowflake-like memorials flew to Xinuang Pavilion, almost all of which were for the abolition of the Metropolitan Government, Zhu Youxiao didn't even read them, and kept them all.

On this day, Zhu Youxiao had eaten his meal, and was planning to go to Nanhaizi for a gallop, so as to be clean and clean.

As soon as he walked to the door of the Prison of Rituals, he suddenly heard noisy voices coming from the Prison of Rituals at the side.

what's going on?

With such thoughts in mind, Zhu Youxiao signaled the young eunuchs to keep quiet and approached quietly.

……

Today, Wei Zhongxian, the eunuch of Bingbi, the supervisor of ceremonies, is on duty.

Wei Zhongxian was selected into the palace during the Wanli period, and was subordinate to the eunuch Sun Xian, and he entered the Jiazi library by fawning on him.

After that, Wei Zhongxian fawned on the Wei Dynasty because he was the emperor's eldest grandson, Zhu Youxiao's mother Wang Cairen.

Wei Chao felt comfortable being flattered, so he praised Wei Zhongxian to Wang An many times.

Now that Mrs. Ke was repatriated from the palace, Wei Zhongxian found out that she was doing well in the capital, so he felt relieved and found a new woman to accompany him in the palace as a "counter food".

Zhu Youxiao knew about this and didn't care about it.

Coincidentally, Wei Zhongxian's new counterpart was dug from Wei Chao and called Xu Shi.

I don't know if he deliberately wanted to disgust Wei Chao, or if he had other ulterior motives, anyway, Wei Chao was very angry when he heard the news.

Although this Mrs. Xu and himself are just new "pairs" and have never entered the bridal chamber or worshiped the world, but after all, they are their own women in name.

Wei Zhongxian put on a cuckold for himself once, but also put a cuckold on himself specifically, which is too much.

Even if you, Wei Zhongxian, were reused by the emperor, and now you are already so prosperous that you can stand against the great eunuch Wang An, you don't play like this.

Wei Zhongxian's new opponent, the Xu family, is naturally a follower of power.

At this time, Wei Zhongxian took advantage of the time when the emperor was going to Nanhaizi, and invited her to have lunch at the Supervisor of Rites.

Mrs. Xu was picking up vegetables for Wei Zhongxian, looking at him affectionately, it could be seen that she was quite fond of Wei Zhongxian.

She also felt in her heart that the person in front of her, except for the lack of weight in the middle, no beard, and male duck voice, the rest is really good.

The main reason is that Wei Zhongxian is more powerful than the Wei Dynasty, and he is highly valued by the emperor.

The two chatted, and they talked about Zhu Youxiao's favorite "three stewed things".

"Brother Wei, do you know why the emperor suddenly doesn't like to eat 'Braised Three Things'?" The woman looked puzzled.

"The emperor eats as much as he wants, and he doesn't eat if he doesn't want to. What are you asking so much for?" Wei Zhongxian took a mouthful of braised three things and ate them, as if he hadn't finished talking.

Mrs. Xu didn't think much, took another bite of food for Wei Zhongxian, and said:

"Don't tell me, if it wasn't for you, Brother Wei, I wouldn't be able to eat with the Supervisor of Ceremonies in the palace in my life."

"What is this? Follow Brother Wei and me, and I will benefit from you in the future."

"Then Wang An is still framing me everywhere, saying that I want to be nine thousand years old, hey, he doesn't even think about it, how can I have such courage?" Wei Zhongxian took a sip of warm wine and said:

"Long live the emperor, and I will be nine thousand years old? This Wang An wants to mess with my reputation, and he doesn't want to do something easy."

Xu curled her lips and said, "Who said it wasn't?"

"Big, bold!" Suddenly, a man broke into the Prison of Ceremonies and said drunkenly, "You two, how dare you go to the Prison of Ceremonies to drink and have fun!"

Wei Zhongxian looked over, smiled from the bottom of his heart, but pretended to be surprised: "Ah, Brother Chao, why are you here?"

Seeing her predecessor's confrontation, Xu had nothing to fear, took Wei Zhongxian's arm, and said:

"Have you eaten yet? The emperor is going to ride a horse in Nanhaizi. Come and eat."

Wei Zhongxian sat there without moving, put a peanut in his mouth, and said vaguely: "Brother, you are here, we haven't seen each other for a long time, come in for a drink."

"Eat your mother!" Wei Chao grabbed the wine glass, slammed it on the ground, and said, "Is there a brother like you, ah?"

"Women who specialize in robbing their brothers?"

There is a reason why Wei Chao has been in this position for so many years. Compared with Wei Zhongxian, his mouth is really unfavorable.

After saying a few words, he was about to hit people.

Wei Zhongxian sneered a few times, then slapped the table and got up and said: "Keep your mouth clean, who will snatch your woman? Everyone is eunuch, who doesn't know who!"

"You kid has a woman? Have you been in the bridal chamber?"

"You, you, me, me, me..." Wei Chao stammered, out of breath, really didn't know what to say.

Seeing that he pointed at Wei Zhongxian first, then at himself, and finally pointed at Xu Shi who didn't think it was a big deal to watch the excitement.

After a long while, a few big characters didn't come out of his mouth, and he almost suffocated to death.

"You boy, if I call you brother, that's how I look down on you." Wei Zhongxian sat back, took a sip of his wine, and said:

"Every day, yin and yang are weird, and I don't take a pee to see what I look like in the mirror!"

"Hehe, but according to the governor, you look like a bear in the mirror, and you look like a bear in the mirror."

After a while, Wei Zhongxian uttered a lot of words. Judging from his appearance, it seemed that he looked down on Wei Chao very much.

Wei Chao was so anxious that he barked his teeth and claws and went up to fight.

Seeing that he was coming for real, Wei Zhongxian was not to be outdone, rolled up his sleeves, and the two of them started fighting in the Prison of Rites.

For a while, the news that the two eunuchs started fighting for a woman in the Supervisor of Rituals spread throughout the inner court.

It seems that this is another court anecdote of the Apocalypse Dynasty.
