The Prosperity of Jingdi Chronicle

It has been several days since Wei Yan heard about this incident.

It's not that his eyes and ears are closed and the news is not working.

On the one hand, on the night of Longevity Day, he was embarrassed by the emperor in various unimaginable ways all night. When he woke up the next day, he was horrified by the emperor's next weird ideas, so he hurriedly found an excuse and left the emperor behind. He went back to the mansion to accompany his son, and he did not live in the palace at all during those few days; They are not people who like gossip and gossip, even if they hear some rumors, they will not show off in front of him, so it is not surprising that he did not receive the news in the first place.

He spent several days in the mansion on the reunion day of fatherly kindness and filial piety, trying to make up for his son's regret that he will travel far away in the near future. Later, he reckoned that the emperor's enthusiasm for a while should have almost rested, and he was busy with official duties again. After returning to the palace, as soon as he came back, he heard the servants around him report the matter to him.

That Yan Yucheng was arranged in the side hall on the west side, and the emperor sent his confidants to wait on him. All the supplies in the weekdays were waited at the top. There are a few decorations in the side hall over there, and the emperor specially ordered someone to open the inner warehouse. What is taken out are all treasures that no one has ever seen.

"Hou Ye usually doesn't ask for anything from His Majesty, and it's for nothing to take advantage of those irrelevant people." A court lady said angrily, the meaning in her words was obviously that the decoration here was not as good as that, as if the emperor had been wronged he.

"This is His Majesty's bedroom, even if His Majesty wants to wrong me, he won't wrong himself." Wei Yan gave her a funny look, and shook his head slightly.

These palace people are all maids serving the emperor, why sometimes, he has the illusion that they are his maids.

"Your Majesty, don't take it to heart. When His Majesty stays there every night, it will make you sad." Another court lady muttered while changing his clothes, with a tone of hatred for iron and steel, "These few days Today, Lord Marquis, you are not in the palace, His Majesty has time to come over there every day, judging by the situation, staying there overnight is just around the corner."

"Okay, I'll take it to heart." Wei Yan was afraid of their nagging, so he quickly said that he had listened to their advice.

"There are also those guys from the Ministry of Internal Affairs. They are responsible for this incident."

"If there is no director of security to lead the way, even if the Ministry of Internal Affairs has this idea, it will not be successful."

After hearing what they said, Wei Yan understood the cause and effect.But they obviously missed one person, and that person is the most important.If the emperor hadn't followed suit and agreed, no matter who had this idea, it would be impossible to succeed.

Speaking of the twists and turns here, I have to talk about the open and secret struggle among the chief servants around the emperor. Chief Gao, Chief An and their respective palace servants are the protagonists in this battle.

Manager Gao Yong is the head manager of the emperor's palace, and he has served the emperor since he was a child. To some extent, the emperor treats him as a family member, unlike ordinary servants. Therefore, for many years, manager Gao has always been the emperor's number one Confidant, until now his position is still unshakable.

But Manager Gao is old after all, and this year is the age of sixty. The emperor thought of his age and ordered him to be honored. Persuade peace.

After all, the affection for many years is there, even the emperor should listen to his words, and he can sense Wei Yan's pulse, so he still has to worry about the work of persuading peace.

Director Gao occupies the title of Chief Manager of Qianqing Palace, but he is not a big director now. The specific things in Qianqing Palace are managed by his two apprentices, Fu Ji and Fu Xiang.

Fuji and Fuxiang have worked under Director Gao for many years, and they do things well. Now they are both deputy directors of Qianqing Palace. They are the same in this palace, but they are still junior in qualifications and cannot be compared The chief steward was able to hold his ground, making people have nothing to say and had to be convinced, which inevitably attracted many interested people to stare at the position of the future chief steward of the Qianqing Palace and use their brains.

However, under the management of the three masters and apprentices for many years, the emperor's bedroom is difficult for outsiders to intervene, even if it is not leak-proof. You can't get close to him, even if you want to please him.

Under such circumstances, those caring people in the palace conceived in many ways, and then colluded with those caring people outside the palace several times, and came up with this trick of bringing out another master to fight against Gao Yong's master and apprentice.

Director An mentioned by the lady-in-waiting above is one of such caring people.

Manager An is the manager of the emperor's study room.It stands to reason that the manager of the Imperial Study Room has always been a fat job, but the emperor doesn't like to discuss matters in the Imperial Study Room now, and there are only a handful of times he goes to the Imperial Study Room all year round. Became a slack.

At present, the emperor works in the Zhaoren Hall on a daily basis. This Zhaoren Hall is one of the affiliated palaces of the Qianqing Palace, and it can be regarded as the jurisdiction of the head of the Qianqing Palace. Although the head of the An is with the emperor every day, the Zhaoren Hall is not his place after all. It is not up to him to take care of it, and it is inevitable that everything will be inferior to Gao Yong's master and apprentice. Over the years, this dissatisfaction has grown from breeding to rooting, and has slowly grown into a towering tree. Now it is blooming with the east wind matter of results.

If it was many years ago, Wei Yan must have been confused about the entanglement in it, but now he heard these words, and guessed a little bit in a flash.But even if he guessed the reason, he said he should take it to heart, but he didn't really take it to heart.

His Majesty the Emperor has never been the one to be bullied. The court and harem are all good at using the method of balance. Only his own bedroom has been handed over to Gao Yong's master and apprentice for many years. Sit back and watch the three of them manage the Qianqing Palace so that outsiders can't interfere A metal bucket, naturally he has his considerations.

Facts have proved that Gao Yong's master and apprentice did not live up to his trust. Over the years, the Qianqing Palace has been managed so that it is worthy of the four words of strict palace control. No matter whether it is Wei Yan's affairs or other matters, it will not be leaked. .

This time it is evident.Those who are interested only know that Wei Yan has been favored for many years, but they don't know how to get favored, so they take it for granted and try to figure it out from previous examples.

If they have heard of the emperor's nervousness of holding people in his hands for fear of falling, and keeping them in his mouth for fear of melting, when things go wrong, they are even willing to let go of the airs of the Ninth Five-Year Lord and make small clothes and humble clothes. If they want to serve them willingly, with their exquisite minds, they need to weigh a little more before making this idea.

That being the case, even if the emperor put on the posture of "the newcomer laughs at the old and cries", Wei Yan didn't really take it to heart, but just guessed who the emperor didn't like this time, and wanted to take the opportunity to make someone do it. raft.

In the palace, in the court, or simply him?

There are only a few possible targets for the emperor.All affairs in the palace and court were official affairs, as long as the emperor didn't intend to act recklessly, he didn't have to talk too much, he just had to watch from the sidelines, but if the emperor's idea was to hit him, it must be for those shady things.

Wei Yan thought of all the ideas that the emperor had whispered in his ear after the Wanshou Festival night, and happily planned to try them all, frowning tightly into a word "Chuan".

Wei Yan was worried at the other end, but Jing Li was leisurely watching the play, and when someone came to report that Wei Yan had entered the palace, he hurriedly called him over.

After arriving, Wei Yan saluted as usual, and then obediently sat beside the emperor as usual. After he was seated, he looked around and found that this place had been transformed into a stage, and the stage was full of excitement.

He heard that the emperor came here in the evenings these few days and didn't return to Dongnuan Pavilion until his bedtime, so he opened his mouth to try to persuade him.Before he could speak, he suddenly thought of the emperor's unknown purpose, and closed his mouth tightly again.

Responding to all changes with the same, this is the countermeasure he came up with after he had a headache just now.No matter what the emperor's purpose is, as long as he does nothing and says nothing, he will not fall into the pit that the emperor dug in advance.

Jing Li saw that he was sitting upright, that it was nothing to do with him hanging up high, smiled in a low voice, and didn't say much, but raised his eyes to signal for the person to put down the front curtain, and then let Wei Yan lie down He was on his knee, kneading his shoulders, and asked him a few gossips.

When he was watching the play that day, his mind was wide open, and he thought of many new tricks. Wei Yan hid out these few days. After entering the palace, try everything.

However, some postures can be interesting even if they are half-forced, and some postures can only be enjoyed if the other party is willing to cooperate. Therefore, on the Longevity Day, he was thinking about how to get Wei Yan to cooperate willingly.

Unexpectedly, just as he wanted to sleep, someone handed him a pillow, and just as he was thinking about how to get Wei Yan to agree, someone sent Yan Yucheng in, which saved him a lot of trouble.

At this time, he saw Wei Yan pretending to be a passerby who had nothing to do with him, and there was no other word than snickering. The two of them got bored for a while, and soon lost their minds about watching the show, got up and went back.

Wei Yan made up his mind this time not to talk too much, while Jing Li did whatever he was supposed to do. Even at night, he only used Wei Yan's non-contradictory posture to be gentle. Although there was an extra Yan Yucheng in the palace who was ambiguous , but it was always calm and everything was as usual, making everyone's eyes widened, but they still couldn't see what was going on.

Wei Yan is not in a hurry, the emperor is not in a hurry, someone will be in a hurry.

The first one who was anxious was Yan Yucheng.

The thing is like this, that Yan Yucheng was sold to Yunxi Class by Yazi when she was a child, and she was scolded and beaten all day long practicing kung fu and music. After a few days of comfortable life, a performance in the palace brought such a disaster.

If the emperor had taken a fancy to him on the spot and brought him into the palace, maybe he would have accepted his fate. After all, his arms couldn't twist his thighs. The emperor has the biggest thighs in the world. As a little actor, besides thanking him, he can also have any solution?

But the fact is not the case, Yan Yucheng is naturally full of resentment towards those who forced him into Yun Xiban, forced him into a corner, and plunged him into a deep palace, and always wanted to find ways to get revenge before giving up.

But he is a powerless actor, wanting to take revenge on those powerful adults is not easy, but if he can hug the biggest thigh in the world for help, his wish may not be wishful thinking.

With this idea in mind, Yan Yucheng did not miss any chance to get close to the emperor, and tried his best to please the emperor. No matter it was the topic of clothing and hobbies, everything was premised on the emperor's preferences. After spending more than a month, the emperor began to take him by his side to serve the emperor closely, and played with the emperor for fun in his spare time.

After going back and forth, Yan Yucheng seemed to be the upstart around the emperor, and some unsatisfied palace servants couldn't get a hand in Wei Yan's side, so they couldn't help but also came to press the treasure on him, and cooperated with those who were with him. The person who sent him to the palace with good intentions, this Yan Yucheng gradually accumulated his own influence in the palace.

However, he also looks beautiful on the surface, but in fact he is like a flower blooming on duckweed, unable to withstand a little storm, let alone capable of taking revenge on those people.He had carefully served the emperor for so long, but he never even asked for the grace of going out of the palace, let alone other things.

In this way, Yan Yu is in a hurry.

When Wei Yan went back one evening, before he stepped into the gate of the palace, he heard a commotion inside, and the emperor's cold order came from the crying and begging:

"It's time to drag it out, let the Ministry of Internal Affairs teach the rules before sending it over."

No matter how much Wei Yan made up his mind to ignore this matter, at this time, he still had to speak up.

"Your Majesty." Wei Yan's voice was full of blame.

He thought of an old incident, whoever the emperor wanted to use, and whose faults were the ones who were unlucky in the end, and it was obvious that he still couldn't get rid of it.

Back then, there was Sun Kesun champion, although the unjust case was vindicated later, he still did not catch the emperor's eyes, and was left idle until the first year of Hongqing, when he was reappointed by the emperor, but now it can be regarded as the place where the emperor takes care of one side As an important official, he didn't say much, but what happened to Yan Yucheng in front of him?

"That's right, what's the taste of playing after being cast off? Change the stick to a hundred." The emperor in the palace finally changed his words when he heard his voice, but the inside and outside of the words were full of misunderstandings. .

Wei Yan smiled wryly, the emperor wanted him to misunderstand, but it was obviously nothing, so where could he be misunderstood.

But even if this Yan Yucheng practiced kung fu for a while, with the hundred sticks, I'm afraid there will only be breath out, no breath in.

"Your Majesty." Wei Yan had no choice but to speak again, but looked at Fuji Fuxiang who was guarding the door, wanting to know what happened just now to make the emperor so furious.
