Chapter 474
The family met last night, it was already very late, and they should go back to their respective rooms to sleep after talking for a while, but the father 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, Yin Ling and the others couldn't stand it any longer, "Damn old man, what can't you say during the day?"Do you have to disturb the couple's reunion? '

"What do girls know?" The old man, who used to rake his ears, blew his beard and stared. Although Wang Xian wanted to comfort his wife who was still in shock, seeing his father like this, he knew that something was wrong with him.So he asked Yinling and Lingxiao to accompany Lin Qing'er today, while he and his father went to the study.

When they arrived at the study room, the old man brewed strong tea with his own hands, Wang Xian asked puzzled, "Isn't dad going to sleep now?"

"Don't sleep anymore, I have something to do, and I can't sleep well." Wang Xingye took out a wooden box from the drawer, and ordered: "You lie down on the bed, and then take off your shirt."

Wang Xian glanced inside the box and said with a smile, "When did Dad learn acupuncture?"

"Acupuncture is a fart." Wang Xingye squinted his eyes and said, "I want to tattoo you!"

"Tattoo?" Wang Xian stared wide-eyed and said, "Why?"

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

"worry about what?"

"You are a big shot now, so your father and I's experience in yamen can't teach you anymore..." Wang Xingye sighed.

"Look at what my father said, you have walked more bridges than me, and you have eaten more salt than I have eaten rice." Wang Xian hurriedly complimented.

"Fart, you think I'm a pickle!" Wang Xingye rolled his eyes and said, "But your father and I have never eaten pork, I have always seen pigs running, I think you are a bit like Yang Dezu in "Three Kingdoms"." Father Wang's level of strategy all comes from Mr. Luo's Three Kingdoms.After reading it repeatedly for more than ten years, I have long been able to learn and use it.

"Who is that?" Wang Xian was taken aback.

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

"That's different, Yang Xiu followed the wrong person." Wang Xian said disapprovingly.

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

Wang Xian broke out in a cold sweat immediately, and his father knew clearly from the sidelines, it really hit the nail on the head - he was always in charge for the prince, the better his performance, the more unhappy the emperor would be, right?
After all, I was an official of the Ming Dynasty, what position did I put the emperor in?

Thinking of the murderous Emperor Yongle, Wang Xian was sweating profusely, and couldn't stop it.

Seeing that his son listened to it, Wang Xingye was very pleased and said: "Get down, and tattoo a few words for you for your father, and it will save your life at a critical moment!"

"What word do you want to tattoo?"

"It won't be 'going here'," the old man said as he injected the needle, and Wang Xian almost cried out in pain.

"Don't move, be careful that the stab is crooked." The old man held him down, but he felt a little guilty, alas, he said 43's eyes closed, and his words were true, this old man's eyes are so dizzy...

.

The next day Wang Xiancai found out that last night there was a fire on the lamp mountain outside the gate at noon, nearly a thousand people died in haste and there were many dignitaries among them.I heard that even the emperor's favorite general, the governor and Tongzhi Mawang, who had just made great contributions in the battle of Hulanhushui, died in this battle, which is really embarrassing.It is also heard that the emperor thought that the heavens were immoral, so he was afraid and repaired the province, ordering all the yamen to stop sending objects, so as to relieve the power of the people.

As soon as Wang Xian entered the city yesterday, he asked someone to hand over the copy of the decree to the Secretary of General Affairs... According to the rules, when the imperial envoy returned to Beijing, he should kneel outside the Meridian Gate and wait for the emperor to summon him, but there was a fire outside the Meridian Gate, so he had to Waiting at home.I thought that if the emperor wanted to have a fasting ceremony, he would not summon him for the time being, but who knew that the eunuch announced that he would enter the palace that afternoon, and Wang Xian hurriedly asked someone to put on his official uniform and rode to the palace gate.

When passing through Yuqian Street, the officials and civilians of Yingtianfu were still busy. The burnt-out lamp hills had been dismantled, and they were cleaning the blackened ground with hot water and mops.Wang Xian got off his horse, followed the eunuch who passed the decree to the outside of the Meridian Gate, and he was relieved when he entered the palace.

The eunuch who delivered the decree was secretly surprised, and laughed softly: "People are nervous when they enter the palace, but the adults are just the opposite."

"Xiaguan was also on fire yesterday." Wang Xian sighed.

The eunuch who delivered the decree understood it, nodded and stopped talking, led Wang Xian into the Meridian Gate, crossed the Inner Five Dragon Bridge, entered Fengtian Gate, passed through the three main halls, and finally stopped in front of a palace until Wang Xian was stunned. .Wang Xian felt that if no one led him out, he would definitely get lost...

The eunuch passed the decree to let Wang Xian wait, and went in to report by himself, and came out for a while to lead Wang Xian in.Before going in, he whispered: "The emperor is in a bad mood recently. When your lord is right, don't say what you shouldn't say." Seeing his fearful expression, Wang Xian felt that he was not reminding himself, but As begging, he had no choice but to nod.

The eunuch then led him into the palace gate, once he entered the palace gate, it was like stepping into another world, the eunuch didn't even dare to lift his head, and walked cautiously, not daring to make a sound.Not only him, but the eunuchs and maids standing outside the palace also held their breaths, and the needles could be heard in the huge palace. The eunuch led Wang Xian into the palace, made him kneel before a veil, and stepped forward. He said softly, "Long Live Lord, Wang Xian will see you."

Wang Xian immediately kowtowed in front of the veil and said, "The imperial envoy Wang Xian, the pacifier of Shanxi, kowtowed to my emperor, long live long live long live."

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

Then a court lady opened the curtain to the left and right, Wang Xian hurriedly bowed his head and got up, entered the inner palace, and knelt down again.

.

Because he was fasting, Emperor Yongle did not wear a dragon robe, but a Songjiang cotton robe with dragon patterns and dark flowers on it. He did not sit on a dragon chair, but stood in front of a statue of Emperor Zhenwu with his hands behind his back.Before he could open his mouth, Wang Xian's heart was pounding violently under the pressure of the deep and fierce imperial aura.

This is the first time Wang Xian has had close contact with Emperor Yongle. He has met him twice before, both during military parades and marches, separated by a distance of tens or tens of feet, so he couldn't really see him clearly.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 as a local snake in Fuyang County was broken by this emperor...Of course, the emperor doesn't know who Wang Xian is, but the emperor's One thought, one will, will change the life trajectory of thousands of people.Wang Xian often thought that if it hadn't been for Hu Yun's trip to Fuyang, he might still be the little official in Fuyang who deceived his superiors and deceived his subordinates.What's wrong with being a coward who counts money until his hands cramp and bullies men and women?It's better than standing on the cusp of the storm like this, exhausted all day, isn't it?
"Raise your head." Zhu Di spoke, and Wang Xian quickly straightened up and raised his face.I finally saw the true face of Emperor Yongle... This is Emperor Yongle with Tianxian in his mouth and universe in his hands!Damn, isn't he just an old version of the little blackie?That face was carved out of the same mold as Zhu Zhanji's, but it has too much weathered color, carved with a knife over time, and there is too much majesty that Zhu Zhanji doesn't have.

Wang Xian looked at the emperor, and the emperor also looked at him curiously, wanting to see what is so special about this boy Yao Guangxiao has taken a fancy to?It seemed that he was just an ordinary person, Zhu Di said slowly: "Aiqing has worked hard on this trip to Shanxi."

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

"I heard that you led the army to attack Guangling on a snowy night, caught the White Lotus Sect army by surprise, and used both suppression and appeasement to take down Liu Zijin, who was helpless with an army of 10,000+." Zhu Di praised: "The battle was fought very well. .”

"This battle can be won big, relying on the emperor's brilliance and martial arts, relying on His Royal Highness Taisun to strategize and command well, and relying on the young army soldiers to risk their lives." Wang Xian hurriedly said modestly: "And God bless Daming, the enemy army It happened that there was internal strife, which made the battle of my heavenly army much easier."

"What does this have to do with my wisdom and martial arts?" Zhu Di sneered.If Wang Xian can't answer well, he will be labeled as a "flatterer".

"At first, I didn't understand why the emperor waited so long to stand still. Later, when I arrived in Shanxi, I gradually realized the lofty meaning of the holy will. It turned out that the emperor was playing hard to get." Wang Xian said hurriedly.

"You're talking about it, how is it playing hard to get?" Zhu Di asked with interest.

"The emperor's holy light is like a torch, and he can see through the Bailian monster at a glance that they are a group of mobs. He knows that they can coexist in times of crisis. Once they relax, civil strife will inevitably arise and the defense will be slack. Attacking at this time will naturally get twice the result with half the effort." Wang Xian With a serious face, he said: "It is precisely because I have realized a little of the holy will that I dare to speak boldly to His Royal Highness Taisun, and sent out a surprise army to conquer Guangling."

"Hahaha..." Zhu Di laughed loudly, although he knew that Wang Xian was flattering, but Wang Xian's flattering was too comfortable, which made Emperor Yongle, who had been depressed for a long time, feel much better.

Those palace people beside Shili secretly breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts, they should have survived again today...

But they obviously underestimated the uncertainty of the emperor, Zhu Di suppressed his smile the next moment, and said coldly: "But did you go to Shanxi to fight?"

"My minister is ordered to investigate the Shanxi military ration case." Wang Xian's heart shuddered, and he cursed secretly, didn't you order me to be a military counselor?However, the other party was His Majesty the Emperor who was talking about Tianxian, so he was obviously not the object of his reasoning.

"How is the errand going?" Zhu Di stared at Wang Xiandao with a cold light in his eyes.

Wang Xian's back was wet, and he knew that this matter could not be settled like this... The incident in Shanxi almost caused the emperor's army to starve to death on the grassland. Fool?

"I... have already delivered the closing statement to the Emperor Ming." Wang Xian felt that his words had changed.

"Wang Xian, dare to swear in front of me," Zhu Di said blankly, "Will you never lie to me about every word on the memorial?"

 The first update, um, there are two more updates.The battle is fierce, ask for a monthly ticket!
