[Red Mansion] Let's listen to a general's order

As soon as he stepped into the gate of Ningshou Palace, the emperor saw that the Supreme Emperor and Wang Yi seemed to be arguing about something, all the palace people had retreated, and only Dai Quan was at the side.

Sitting at the top facing the palace gate, the Supreme Emperor didn't care about the arrival of the emperor. At this moment, he was like a defeated... emperor, sullen and silent.

Wang Yi, who was so bold that he dared to "defeat" the Supreme Emperor, comforted him calmly: "When the child grows up, he has to see the outside world, and he can't be trapped in this square inch of the capital all his life." Let's go!"

"The tired bird knows how to return. He is tired from playing outside, and he will always know how to go home."

The Taishanghuang sighed softly, "I'm afraid I won't be able to wait for him to come home one day!" In all fairness, the Taishanghuang is already seventy years old, and in this age where the average age is less than fifty, he is considered a very old man. up.

After finishing speaking, he glared at Wang Yi, "It's all your fault! If you, an old man, hadn't set a good example and led him wild, how could he have such an idea!"

Wang Yi didn't chat with the jealous (anger) old emperor, but turned his head to salute another emperor who was good-tempered and knowledgeable.

After the emperor personally helped Wang Yi up, he took out the memorial from his arms, handed it to the Supreme Emperor with both hands, and said hurriedly: "Father! Jingya, he..."

"I already know about this matter...Jing Ya has a lively and active personality, likes to move but doesn't like to be quiet, and has never been able to sit still for a quarter of an hour since he was a child. With the example of his master, I want him to stay in the capital quietly. I'm afraid it will be extremely difficult!" Taishang Huang said with a flick of his sleeves, without taking the note from the emperor's hand.

Both the emperor and Wang Yi could hear the intention of giving up in the emperor's words.

Wang Yi widened his eyebrows. As long as the Supreme Emperor does not insist, Jing Ya's resignation from Beijing to travel around the world can almost be said to be a foregone conclusion.

How could you just give up like this! ?The emperor was full of complaints and almost blurted out.

Everyone knows that the Supreme Emperor has an unparalleled influence on Li Lian. As long as the Supreme Emperor firmly refuses to allow Li Lian to resign, Li Lian will have to submit obediently to a small corner of the capital no matter how much he desires to travel around the world and wander the rivers and lakes.

Therefore, Li Lian asked his master to lobby the Supreme Emperor in advance early in the morning, and Wang Yi is indeed a good friend of the Supreme Emperor for decades, and he knows every reaction of the Supreme Emperor. Next, he succeeded in making the Supreme Emperor let go with both soft and hard tactics.

"Father!" You haven't tried it yet, how do you know you can't keep him!

The Supreme Emperor said in a deep voice: "If you can keep his people, can you still keep his heart?" It's actually very simple to keep Li Lian's people, all you need is a decree.

"But...Father, now that the state owns foreign thieves, and foreigners are still eyeing them, Da Zhou cannot live without Marshal Jing Ya..." Although the generals recommended by Li Lian are all proficient in military affairs and have fought countless victories , but when he thought of Li Lian's absence, the emperor felt that he didn't even have the confidence and confidence to fight against foreigners.

"That's all! If you want to rely on my empty words, you idiot will never believe it!" After a pause, the Supreme Emperor opened his mouth and said: "You just try, as a father, I have to see if you have any I can keep Jingya here!" With just one sentence, he handed over the important task of keeping Li Lian to the emperor.

Wang Yi could see that the Supreme Emperor hadn't completely given up, and was making the last struggle.

"Yes!" The emperor nodded earnestly, thinking hard about how to make Li Lian stay in the capital obediently without any worries.

This thought is half a month.

Li Lian couldn't sit still!

If you are not allowed, you are not allowed. What do you mean by procrastinating like this!

After Wang Yi left the palace half a month ago, Li Lian had already asked his master for news.I learned from the master that the emperor has let go, but the emperor is "willing to go his own way" and is trying to prevent him from leaving Beijing!Could it be that the emperor intends to give a discount to keep the middle school, so he can treat it as if it didn't happen! ?

Li Lian has already packed all the luggage, and as soon as the letter of resignation is approved, he can immediately take Xiaozhi (the wife) and Ben Xiao (the concubine?) to leave the capital, to travel freely .

In a hurry, Li Lian decided not to wait!

Who knows if the emperor will really plan to procrastinate the word formula until he forgets it!

Li Lian is also a practical man, so he just rode on his old partner (concubine?)---Ben Xiao, and headed towards the palace, wanting to enter the palace and ask for clarification.

According to "Bole Xiangma Jing", the golden age of war horses is between five and 15 years old, and the lifespan of most horses is between 35 and 27 years old.When Li Lian saw Ben Xiao for the first time at the racecourse, Ben Xiao was only half a year old, and in a blink of an eye, he was [-] years old, and he was considered to be of the grandfather generation among horses.

Although Ben Xiao is considered an older group among the horses, his appearance does not look old at all, just like the handsome Fengshen when he was young, and his feet are still fast. Those "grandsons" don't know how many horses.In addition, the champion's mansion is not far from the palace, but it took only half a cup of tea to arrive in front of the palace gate.

The two imperial guards standing in front of the palace gate, one on the left and one on the right, heard the sound of hoofs trampling on the stone slab approaching from a long distance, and they all looked up to see a horse galloping towards the palace gate, they couldn't help but clenched their weapons tightly and shouted loudly. Stop: "The palace gate is important! Those who come will stop!"

Li Lian stroked Ben Xiao's mane, and Ben Xiao knew to stop with a tacit understanding.

He easily jumped off Ben Xiao's back, threw the reins and an ingot of five taels of silver into the hands of the imperial guards on the right, and with one big stride, he was about to enter the palace.

Unexpectedly, the guard on the left moved sideways and blocked Li Lian's way.

I saw that the guard had beautiful features, with a little sadness in his eyes, and his face was a little unnaturally pale, but his straight back made people feel extraordinarily tough.

Li Lian was slightly surprised and said: "What's the matter? You also want tea money? But your stupid old man can't withhold your salary and your mother's dowry? If this is the case, Xiao Lanhua, don't be afraid, just tell me , when I leave the palace, I will call your uncles to beat you!"

The Forbidden Army has always been composed of children from good families near the capital, all of whom are carefully selected, with clean net worth and no criminal records within three generations.Except for a small number of nephews and nephews of the emperor's trusted courtiers, some are the nephews and descendants of veterans, and most of them are farming children, each of whom is a diehard loyalist of the emperor.

Living in the capital is not easy.

Although the monthly salary of the forbidden army is relatively generous, who doesn't need to support a big family?Therefore, most of the general forbidden troops are frugal people.And Li Lian used to be a guard of the imperial army and even the commander of the imperial army, plus he was helpful and undisciplined. Take it as a thank you for taking care of Ben Xiao.

Not everyone in the imperial army took all the tea money they gave them, and they dared to accept Li Lian's money only after the Supreme Emperor and the Emperor nodded.

Wei Ruolan, the son of Wei Heng, the light chariot general, showed embarrassment.

His family is very powerful, his father is a general of the third rank, and his mother is a noble daughter of the Li family. When he got married, he was named the head of the county. He can be regarded as a real prince and grandson.However, his mother gave birth to him prematurely, and his health was not good in the following years, and he died when he was seven years old.Two years later, his father, Wei Heng, came back after marrying a step-wife from a family background. Within three years, he had a son and a daughter, which was a good name.

As the saying goes: Where there is a stepmother, there is a stepfather.Fortunately, there are two uncles in Wei Ruolan's mother's house. Although they are not talented, they are enough to make the stepmother not dare to attack Wei Ruolan casually, but it's okay to blow pillow wind to Wei Heng.And under the pillow wind day and night, although Wei Heng would not treat his eldest son harshly, when it comes to treating the two sons, he is still slightly biased towards the younger son in his heart, and tends to slightly suppress his eldest son.There are many reasons, such as the eldest son is the eldest son, most of the family business in the future will be his, the younger son will not get much, the eldest son has the help of his uncle's family, and the younger son can only rely on himself.Otherwise, with Wei Ruolan's status, even if she was a bodyguard of the imperial army, she would stand guard by the emperor's side, and she would definitely not have to guard the gate.

"Great... Great General..." Wei Ruolan hesitated, unable to utter a word after talking for a long time.

"If you have something to say, just say it! What's the point of haggling!?" Li Lian was anxious to enter the palace, but Wei Ruolan stopped him outside the palace gate. Gong, his temper has become much milder in recent years.

"General... please... please... show the badge to enter the palace!" Wei Ruolan could only close her eyes and blurt out what she wanted to say after being told by Li Lian.

Li Lian was stunned, "Hey! Little Lanhua, have you eaten a bear's heart and leopard's guts, or are you suffering from a loss of soul?" Even the little bully in the palace dared to stop him! ?

Wei Ruolan didn't want to stop Li Lian either, he could even imagine that after today, his official career would be faced with many obstacles

You, Wei Ruolan, are so courageous, but even a small imperial guard dares to embarrass the general in public!For such a powerful person, please forgive me that the small temple of Tiance Mansion (Lantian Daying) (Fengtai Daying, etc.) cannot accommodate your big Buddha, Mr. Wei!So as not to wrong you with all your abilities!

Although extremely reluctant, considering the meaning of the person above, Wei Ruolan resolutely chose the former between being blocked in his future official career and having no official career in the future, he said with a wry smile: "General, isn't it?" The little one is trying to make things difficult for you, but the commander recently rectified the imperial army, arrested several colleagues who did not follow the rules, and beat each of them with [-] military sticks. The small body has never been strong, so I really dare not take the [-] military sticks , General, please be considerate!" The implication is that these are orders from above, and he definitely did not target Li Lian on purpose.

Li Lian also knew that if it wasn't for a reason, Wei Ruolan would never have dared to block his way, but he also knew that the imperial army would not rectify without reason.

It was obvious that the emperor didn't want him to enter the palace!

"Okay! You also act according to the rules, and I won't make it difficult for you, kid." Li Lian seemed to be reasonable.

Wei Ruolan immediately breathed a sigh of relief, clasped her fists in gratitude: "Thank you, General, for your understanding!"

Logically, since Li Lian had guessed that it was the emperor's intention, he should go back to his residence and find a solution.

However, this is not the bold Li Lian.

"I'll go back to the mansion to get the entry token!" Don't think that this will prevent him from entering the palace!As the unnamed godson of the Niu family, Li Liansifu, who has a strong temper, must enter this palace today!

Dai Quan personally led Li Lian to enter and leave the palace when he was young, but when he was a little older, the Supreme Emperor directly gave him a token to enter the palace.However, because all the guards in the palace recognized him, and because the Supreme Emperor had great favor on him at that time, there were not many chances to show the token.Later, Li Lian became a member of the Forbidden Army, and even a commander of the Forbidden Army, so there was no need to use a token.But now entering the palace only needs to swipe his face, and Feng Zizhi put away the badge of entering the palace and put it on the shelf.

This was the first time Li Lian failed to brush his face.

Hearing this, Wei Ruolan's face also turned green.

Before he could react, Li Lian took it as soon as he said it, put his left foot on the stirrup, stepped on his right foot, and sat firmly on Ben Xiao's back.

"Fun Xiao, go home."

Ben Xiao blinked his eyes spiritually without needing to make any more action prompts, then turned his head and ran back in the direction of Champion Hou's Mansion.

Wei Ruolan was stunned by Li Lian's swift action.

Seeing Li Lian go away, Wei Ruolan quickly glanced at a blind spot on the palace gate.

A middle-aged man wearing the uniform of the commander of the imperial army quickly walked through countless passages and came directly to the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

"Your Majesty, the champion marquis was stopped outside the gate of the palace. Now go back to the mansion to get the palace entry token given to him by the Supreme Emperor." Chang Liang, the commander of the imperial army, bowed his head and reported.

The figure on the imperial case, who was writing furiously, paused and sighed softly, "It's still here after all."

With a wave of his hand, Chang Liang was asked to exit and go to the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

"Bi Yun."

"The old slave is here." Under the shadow, Bi Yun took a step forward to answer.

"I know you have a close relationship with Jingya, and if you reveal a little news to Jingya on weekdays, I can pretend that I don't know..." The emperor was still reviewing the memorial, not paying attention to Bi Yun at all, just looking out for himself road.

But hearing these words, it was enough to make Bi Yun pale with fright, and fell to his knees on the cold ground with a plop.

"Damn the slave! Die the slave!" Bi Yun didn't ask the emperor for forgiveness, he just kowtowed desperately until his head was dripping with blood, as if he wanted to kowtow himself to death.

He didn't dare to beg for mercy. You must know that the two crimes of revealing the holy will and seducing foreign ministers are too serious, and they can be regarded as the two most serious mistakes that palace servants who serve the imperial court should not commit.

The emperor intends to order you to mention XX, or you want to sell XX, just a few words will be fine.People like Bi Yun who exchanged information with Li Lian from time to time, in serious terms, they were colluding with foreign ministers and plotting wrongdoings.

What is a servant?No matter how majestic they are outside, they are nothing but the emperor's servants.Domestic slaves colluded with outsiders, trying to plot their own property, even their own lives, any master would turn a blind eye! ?

If what Bi Yun reveals is not any particularly important news...

If the person Bi Yun wants to "collude" is not Li Lian...

If the emperor doesn't know Li Lian's loyalty to the emperor and patriotism...

If Bi Yun didn't follow the dragon's merit...

If any of the above four conditions were true, the emperor would have assigned Bi Yunfa to guard the imperial mausoleum long ago!

Thinking of Bi Yun's merits of following the dragon, and thinking of Bi Yun's various benefits in the past, the sound of kowtowing echoed louder and louder in his ears, and the emperor's hand holding the brush paused, his heart softened after all.

"Okay! Considering that you did your best in serving you in the past, and you are loyal to the emperor's affairs, let's let go of the past!"

"Slave, thank you for your kindness! In the future, you will be cautious in your words and deeds, serve the emperor wholeheartedly, and work hard for the emperor!" Bi Yun kowtowed again, and then thanked him with a bloody face.

He has been complacent in recent years.

Ever since he assumed the position of the chief eunuch of Anfuhai Yangxin Palace, his life has been going so smoothly, and he has become more and more careless in his actions.

After beating Bi Yun, the emperor calmly continued to review the memorial.

"In a while, no matter who asks to see, they all say that I am criticizing the memorial, and they all disappear."

"Yes." Bi Yun respectfully admitted.

After reviewing the memorial for a while, the emperor couldn't hear any movement nearby. He paused the hand holding the pen, and couldn't help but turned his head and scolded: "Hurry up and bandage the medicine!? My chief eunuch hasn't wanted to change it yet." Human!" Yibiyun's head wound continued to bleed like this, and if he didn't deal with it, he might lose blood and die.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your sympathy. This servant will go down now." After understanding what the Emperor meant, Bi Yun was overjoyed and tried to maintain a submissive expression and retreated. With the support of Dayong, avoiding other palace people in the Hall of Mental Cultivation, went back to the room to apply a bandage.

Sometimes, you are not afraid of doing wrong things in the palace, but you are most afraid of losing your sacred heart.As long as there is a Sacred Heart, even if it is a complete defeat, there will be a day of comeback.
