Chapter 74 Jade Seat Bead Curtain (25-1)

While Xiao Li secretly dispatched vehicles and notified the Ministry of Internal Affairs to pick them up, he secretly made up his mind. It seemed that the emperor was not satisfied with the behavior of the Old Summer Palace. If he wanted to "go shopping in the streets", how should he deal with it?There are those places that can be visited; Are those places the emperor would find interesting after visiting? These are two different things.Xiao Li thinks it's okay to take a car for a walk on the street, or visit a wild temple or ancient temple, but the emperor may not be interested in this.So where does the emperor want to visit?Xiao Li couldn't figure out what happened for the first time to solve the problem. After much deliberation, he came up with four words: adapt to the situation.

When I returned to the palace, I saw that the emperor had changed into plain clothes. He was wearing a lynx leather robe of rose purple and yellow satin, a Baturu vest with black satin and coral buttons, and a lake-colored silk belt around his waist. Wearing two bright yellow satin embroidered purses, a satin hat on the head and satin boots on the feet, the knot of the hat is a ruby.This attire was learned by the emperor from Zai Cheng. It is elegant and graceful, not as handsome as Zai Cheng, but more elegant than Zai Cheng. Xiao Li looked at the emperor with a smile, and immediately found that there was a place where his feet were exposed, so he knelt down and hugged the emperor's leg and said: "This slave is bold enough to ask the Lord Long Live for a reward. The purse, I gave it to the servant." The emperor immediately understood, and while picking up the underlayment, he asked, "Do you dare to use it?"

"No one dares to use this bag! The Lord Long Live rewarded this pair of purses. The servant invited him to go home and made a high offering in the main hall. He taught the family members of the servant to burn incense in the morning and evening to wish the Lord Long Live a long life." Not old, to be the emperor of Taiping for ten thousand years." The emperor smiled and scolded: "Monkey bastard! Pick it up if you have a bargain." He still picked up the underlayment. This means that Xiao Li's request was approved and he was asked to untie the purse. Xiao Li happily replaced the emperor with a pair of blue satin and flat gold purses, and kowtowed to thank him.

"You have to change your clothes too!" "Yes!" Xiao Li asked, "Shouldn't we go to the Old Summer Palace?" Xiao Li didn't need to change his clothes when he went to the Old Summer Palace. He asked this question as a temptation, and the emperor replied honestly: "Go for a walk in the street first, and then we can talk later when we have time." "This..." Xiao Li didn't dare to show embarrassment, he just said: "I'm afraid that if the censor who patrols the city or the yamen of the infantry commander finds out, it will be a lot of inconvenience."

"What are you afraid of? I'm here!" The emperor said again: "The capital is so big, 'ten thousand people are hidden like a sea', as long as you are careful, no one will know." The emperor then asked: "What is the 'Temple Market'? '? I want to go and see." How about the temple market?Xiao Li thought to himself, there are so many tourists, it is inevitable that some people who work in the inner court and have seen Tianyan leak the truth, which is really "a lot of inconvenience". landed. However, this must not tell the truth to the emperor. If he told the truth, he would definitely not listen, so he had to lie. "Unfortunately today," he said deliberately counting his fingers, "the temple market is Earth Temple on the second day of junior high school, Hua'er Market on the third day of junior high school, Baita Temple on the fourth and fifth day of junior high school, Huguo Temple on the sixth and seventh day of junior high school, and Long Temple on the eighth and ninth day of junior high school. Fu Temple; it happens to be the tenth day of the lunar new year."

"Then go out the front door and look around. I've got to see what Chalou is like." "The servant doesn't know that 'Chalou' is there." "Go there and ask again, it doesn't matter if you can't find out." With these words, Xiao Li was relieved, changed his clothes, and accompanied the emperor, quietly left the palace from the northwest corner gate, walked back from the east, and went out of Chongwenmen, which was called "Hadamen" by the banner people. When driving out of the city, he always walked through the Zhengyang Gate, which was set up but always closed. He went out of the police station and entered the street. It's as messy as the outside of the car. I can't tell whether it's curious, confused or interesting?But there is a thought that often arises, seeing is better than hearing a hundred times, and the various conditions of the market described in books are often unimaginable, but now I see it with my own eyes, and I almost understand it.

Just as he was fascinated by the peek, the blue rear car stopped suddenly, and the emperor called softly: "Xiao Li!" Xiao Li jumped out of the car and was about to talk to the emperor. He lifted the veil and said softly, "My servant is going to inquire about 'Chalou'." "En!" The emperor nodded, and said: "Where there are people, don't call yourself a 'slave', and don't call me 'Long Live Lord'. Isn't that showing off?" "That, that," Xiao Li stammered, "then dare to change the word and call it 'Uncle Wan'?"

"The uncle is the uncle! Why do you add a surname?" "Yes! Sir." Xiao Li agreed, and asked about "chalou" by himself.The emperor was calmer at this time, silently reciting a poem: "The sound of the city outside the Chunming Gate is thick, and the light dust of ten feet is disturbing. Ya has a leisurely mood to attract the chrysanthemum, and like to go to the building with a winning couple; the red skirt and emerald sleeves are beautiful in the south of the Yangtze River, and the urgent mourning string is filled with Beibei's sorrow! Pastime is short Dreams, the shadows of the setting sun are allowed to linger."

While reciting silently, imagining the scene of red dress with green sleeves and anxious management, wishing to be the guest of Chalou immediately. "I got it." Xiao Li lifted the curtain and said in a very cold voice. "Where?" "Ganqing is the Guanghe Building in the meat market," Xiao Li said, "There is really nothing to visit." "Never mind! Go and have a look before we talk." So the car turned west to south, and as soon as it entered the grinding factory, it could only hear the noise of people, yelling and cursing, as if something had happened.The emperor had never heard such a voice before, and his heart immediately hung up.Lifting the curtain and looking out, I saw two extremely gorgeous cars facing each other in the middle of the road, two strong men pointed at each other, almost about to use force, and people who watched the excitement surrounded them one after another.

"Go, go! Go back!" He heard Xiao Li shouting hastily. However, it was too late, the car behind rushed over and blocked the way, so he had to "park the car".After a while, Xiao Li played back and forth again, saying that the cars of Prince Li's Mansion and Belle Yikuang's family were competing for the road, and the owners of the two families couldn't stand it. "Then don't you want to reverse it?" the emperor said angrily. Before he could finish a sentence, he only heard the sound of "Ba Da, Da Da", which came over very crisply, and Xiao Li immediately said with relief: "Okay, okay! The Street Patrol Censor is here!"

Sure enough, the rich and powerful servants were afraid of nothing but the censor who patrolled the streets. When they heard the sound of "cracking the whip", they didn't bother to scold each other, and each got into the car and drove away.In an instant, the car drove away with the sound of thunder, and disappeared without a trace, but Xiao Li was even more scared than those people. He was afraid of revealing the truth, so he urged the driver to go back to the city from Dongheyan.Zha Lou never saw it, but the emperor was considerate of Xiao Li, even though the trip was in vain, he did not blame him. As soon as he returned to the palace, the emperor heard the report from Zhang Dexi, the chief eunuch, saying that the queen had violated the peace, so the emperor went to Chengqian Palace to visit the queen again.The illness is a minor illness, but Yuyan is thin and not bedridden. Looking at the prescriptions, there were already four, and the emperor knew that the empress had been ill for several days. Although she had a slight cold, she was still apologetic for neglecting to give condolences, so she seemed extremely attentive when she asked questions. When the queen served the tea with her own hands, the emperor suddenly said, "I think you should live in another place!" Well, how did you come up with this word?The queen was slightly surprised, and immediately asked: "Your Majesty sees this place, is that not good?" "I'm afraid of this house..." The emperor kept his mouth shut, because he was afraid that speaking out would make the empress suspicious.Chengqian Palace is a well-known palace among the East Six Palaces. In the Ming Dynasty, it was always the sleeping palace of noble concubines. Tian Guifei, who was the most popular in the Chongzhen Dynasty, lived here.In the Shunzhi period, Concubine Dong E, who is said to be Dong Xiaowan, also lived here. The two favorite concubines of different generations did not last forever.During the Daoguang period, the emperor's pro-grandmother, Empress Xiao Quancheng, collapsed here in the first lunar month. She was only thirty-three years old when she died. According to legend in the palace, she offended the Empress Dowager Gongci and committed suicide by taking poison.All in all, in the emperor's feeling, "this house is not very auspicious"! The empress naturally couldn't guess what he was thinking, but it was inconvenient to ask further questions, she just felt that the Chengqian Palace was close to the Empress Dowager Ci'an's Zhongcui Palace, and there was nothing wrong with it, so she smiled and kept silent, virtually dispelling the emperor's intentions . "Are you on business yet?" the emperor asked. When asked about her stepfather, the queen thanked her again, but is Chongqi on a mission?The queen wouldn't know, and at the same time felt that the emperor's question was strange, "I'm in the palace," she said with a smile, "how do you know?" The emperor thought about it well, "It's ridiculous for me to ask." He said, "It's also your luck, Ama, who happens to have such a shortage. The 'food silver' of the Household Hall official is always one thousand taels a month. " "It's all the grace of the emperor." The queen said again, "I heard that Gui Qing is quite loyal. If there is a chance, the emperor should transfer him back." "Hmph!" The emperor sneered, "It was originally to see his achievements in the Hongde Palace, and he deliberately asked him to fill in the vacancy of the servant of the household department, and adjust him. Who knows that he doesn't know how to flatter, and only likes to make trouble." "Oh, what's the matter?" the queen asked knowingly. "He messed up with Master Li and said some things that people don't like to hear." "The words are not pleasant, but the heart is good." The queen replied calmly, "Don't all the history books say that a loyal minister is a loyal minister?" "Just to fulfill his own reputation as a loyal minister, where does he put the ruler?" The emperor shook his hand and said, "It is better to have no books than to believe in books! There are some things in the books that are deliberately said that way, and there is no such thing thing." "Yes!" The empress agreed first, and seeing that the emperor didn't have much annoyance, she said, "The emperor must believe the good words and deeds of those Zhongxing masters recorded in the history books." The emperor was silent.After pondering for a while, he suddenly asked, "Tell me, which queen do you want to learn from?" "There are many virtuous empresses in the past," the empress thought for a while, "Empress Taizong's eldest grandson, Empress Ma of Emperor Taizong of Ming Dynasty, are all remarkable." "What about this dynasty?" "This dynasty?" The queen replied cautiously, "All ancestors and ancestors should follow the law, especially the filial and pure queen." This is tantamount to imitating the emperor as Gaozong.The emperor has always admired this "perfect old man" who enjoyed his age the most, and he was naturally happy after hearing what the empress said. Talking about the past and the present in this way, with the appearance of talking about love, the emperor felt a rare joy of friendship.Sometimes the emperor is the loneliest person in the world. He has no friends, and there is only one Zaicheng who barely feels like a friend. Although Zaicheng is not a year or two older than him, he knows a lot more than him.Therefore, when the emperor and Zai Cheng were together, they often had the desire to win, but sometimes they had to take care of the distinction between the emperor and his ministers, so it was difficult to stay in harmony and speak freely. Unlike the empress, the emperor believed that the "Miss Number One Scholar" was naturally a talented woman, and it didn't matter if she lost to her in knowledge, and besides, no outsiders heard it, so there was no need to feel ashamed.Of course, the empress was well-bred, she was very cautious in her words, she would never hurt the emperor's self-esteem, she just wanted to enlighten her, and said things casually, if the emperor kept silent, she was very opportunistic, so she would never mention it.And when she encountered a topic that the emperor was interested in, even if she couldn't answer it, she would definitely listen attentively so that the emperor could continue the conversation vigorously. Speaking of the update, the maid brought up a special four-color light and delicate snack for midnight snacks, and the empress took care of it herself. The maid came to play the report, saying that the palace gate was about to be locked. This means indirectly asking the emperor if he lives in Chengqian Palace?The queen understood her intentions, but she refused to express it clearly, and only said: "Wait a little longer!" The emperor naturally knew it too.It should be a matter of course, but he hesitated.Thinking of Empress Dowager Cixi, Concubine Hui, and Empress, if one day lives in Chengqian Palace, tomorrow he may be summoned to Changchun Palace to listen to something he doesn't like to hear, while the Empress will have at least three or five days. His face looks good.Thinking of Empress Dowager Cixi's cold face towards the queen, the emperor felt a chill down his back. "I'd better go back!" The emperor stood up and walked out without turning his head. He was afraid that if he turned around, he would see the queen and he would not be hardened. Once back to Qianqing Palace, the emperor felt like two heavens and one earth.In the long and good night, how many young couples in the world cuddle up to each other, love each other lightly, and you are the emperor, but you have to endure such cold and desolate, how can you be reconciled? "Long Live Lord, please rest!" Xiao Li came quietly and said softly: "The slave has already asked Yang San'er to make the bed." Yang San'er is a young eunuch, only fourteen years old this year, with a pair of small eyes, red lips and white teeth, and outstretched hands, with pointed fingers, like a girl.That night he was locked in the house, waiting for the emperor to wash his feet and go to bed. I got up late the next day. In the study, I felt dizzy and couldn't sit down. I left the study early on the pretext of "stomach discomfort".The meeting with the military aircraft was also hasty, and there were two other "introductions", and the order was "withdrawn". ※ ※ ※ In a blink of an eye, at the end of the year, garden work was suspended, and all yamen were sealed.There was very little rain and snow in Beijing this year, so officials who had nothing to do at home seldom entertained themselves by the stove at home, but more had fun and banquets outside.The most common way to play is to meet two or three times, and after listening to the Hui class in the afternoon, go to the restaurant for a drink, and return home at dusk. Therefore, the restaurant is connected to the theater, and every restaurant prepares huqin and drum boards for the guests to "pastime" when they are drinking, and they can supply them immediately.Several famous restaurants outside the Qianmen, Guangheju, Fuxingju, Zhengyanglou, Xuandelou, Longyuanlou, all sing leather reeds at night. Such magic. This day, he and a colleague Zhang Yinglin were having dinner in Xuande Building after listening to Cheng Changgeng and Xu Xiaoxiang's "Zhen Chanzhou". For a while, Zhang Yinglin played the piano, and Wang Qingqi imitated Xu Xiaoxiang and sang a small play. Wang Qingqi has a lot of kung fu in Xiaosheng opera, and he was born with a voice like a plume, which is clear, strong and strong, and it really seems to be piercing the clouds. "Liba looks at the excitement, and experts look at the doorway." Wang Qingqi not only makes his voice admired by laymen, but also speaks his words well, hesitating, forgetting to eat and sleep, and has done a lot of hard work.In addition, Zhang Yinglin's huqin, because they are often "pastimes" together, perfectly complements each other, highlighting Wang Qingqi's strengths in full swing, and covering the places where he sneaks in for a breath.So after the first song, the diners and waiters listening in the private seats and outside the curtain, applauding and admiring, are all eager to listen to another song. Wang Qingqi and Zhang Yinglin also felt extremely comfortable, but the capital is a place where dragons and tigers are hidden, so they must not show off, and the emphasis is on "let it go when you see it".Wang Qingqi was still excited, but Zhang Yinglin felt that this play, this huqin, was quite expensive, "how often do you hear it in the world"?So without waiting for Wang Qingqi to say something, he put the bow on the shaft, took the huqin and put it in a blue cloth cover covered with dirt, took a towel and wiped his hands vigorously. At this moment, the door curtain lifted, and an 18-year-old boy in Chinese clothes broke in, followed by a handsome servant in a brand-new blue cotton-padded robe.Zhang Yinglin was surprised at first, then angry, it is extremely impolite to trespass the guest seat like this, just about to reprimand him, he saw Wang Qingqi was already talking to the boy. "Who is your honor looking for?" "Look for the one who sings "Zhen Chanzhou"." The young man in Huafu replied, his voice was calm and calm, but every word was as decisive as it was, with a unique majesty. Wang Qingqi saw that the young man's hat knot was a purple ruby, and thought to himself that it must be a son of the royal family, a duke of the state of the state, and so on. The crown of the duke is a gem, isn't it? With this vigilance, Wang Qingqi didn't dare to neglect, "Oh, it's me." He said, "Occasionally, if you don't win the ink, it will make you laugh!" The young man in Chinese clothes nodded: "There is no need to be modest. The singing is very good, and the strings are held up well." "That's my friend." Wang Qingqi pointed to Zhang Yinglin and said. The young man in Chinese clothes looked at him and smiled slightly, then turned around and said to Wang Qingqi: "Can you sing me another verse?" Wang Qingqi turned to look at Zhang Yinglin, he was puzzled and curious, and he didn't notice Wang Qingqi's inquisitive look, so let him be ignored. "Yes!" Wang Qingqi said, "I'll sing another 26, please help!" At this moment Zhang Yinglin looked as if he was waking up from a dream, since Wang Qingqi had already promised him, so he couldn't count it out, so he picked up the huqin and sat down.The handsome servant didn't wait for his master to take his seat, he brought a chair by himself, put it opposite Wang Qingqi, wiped it clean with a white handkerchief, and then called out: "Master!" The uncle sat up unceremoniously.Hearing the huqin's "Long Deer", Wang Qingqi opened his mouth and sang. At the same time, he curled up one leg in a "golden rooster independent" posture, rubbing his hands together, which is the "body" of playing with the chains on the handcuffs. You don't need to listen to it to know that Wang Qingqi is singing "Baimenlou". Because Wang Qingqi has a sense of bosom friend, he sang this piece of "White Gate Tower" with extra care, and the wailing of the end of the road, the helplessness, and the greed for life that still has the idea of ​​what to do, came out song and song.When the singing was over, she lowered her legs, cupped her hands and said with a reserved smile: "Just laugh, laugh!" "It's not bad." The young man in Chinese clothes asked, "Are you working in that yamen?" "I'm in the Imperial Academy. My name is Wang Qingqi." "Oh!" The youth in Chinese clothes asked, "Are you Hanlin?" "That's right!" Wang Qingqi replied, "The Imperial Academy is reviewing." "Then you are Luo from the Boshin Division?" the handsome boy asked.His calculation was good. Wang Qingqi should be a Jinshi of the Wuchen Division in the seventh year of Tongzhi, and he was designated as a good scholar. When he was in the tenth year of Tongzhi, he was dismissed and stayed in the library. He was awarded a review, otherwise he should be transferred to another position. But Wang Qingqi is not, "I belong to Gengshenke." Gengshen belongs to Xianfeng ten years. "In the middle, it was delayed because my father passed away and kept the registration system." The young man in Chinese clothes pointed to Zhang Yinglin and asked, "What about him?" "This is editor Zhang." Wang Qingqi answered on his behalf. "Are you the same year?" "No!" This time it was Zhang Yinglin who answered himself: "Wang Jianjian is my senior, and I have been in Tongzhi for four years." "Are you from Shandong?" the youth in Chinese clothes asked him. "Shandong Licheng." "What about the name?" This question was very rude, and Zhang Yinglin was quite displeased, but at this moment, Wang Qingqi gave him a wink, and he replied with restraint: "Zhang Yinglin." The young man in Chinese clothes nodded, and turned to look at his handsome servant, as if reminding him to remember the names of these two people. "It's a pleasure to meet you today." Wang Qingqi stretched out his hand to Su Ke, "It's not too short, why not have a drink together?" "No need!" The young man in Chinese clothes shook his head and asked again, "Who did you learn your little tricks from?" "I am self-taught. I like Xu Xiaoxiang's way. If I have his play, I must listen to it. Sometimes I will go to his 'lower place' to linger. After a long time, I feel that I can understand the joys and sorrows in it." "'Xia Chu'?" The handsome boy turned around and asked his handsome servant: "What is 'Xia Chu'?" "The location of the opera troupe is called 'Daxiachu'." Wang Qingqi replied, "Famous actors who set up their own family are also called Xiachu." "Oh, that means you often go to his house to play?" "correct." "What's new out there recently?" "A lot. Taizi Lu of the 'Four Proverbs Hall' has made up quite a few old dramas..." "I'm talking about Xiaosheng's play." The young man in Huafu interrupted him, "It's a joke play with Shengdan." "This..., I can't remember at the moment." Speaking of this, the servant Jun who had been standing by the side all the time said, "Master!" He said, "Please go back! Don't disturb others." The youth in Chinese clothes nodded, stood up and waved his hands twice, as if he didn't teach the master to stand up and see off the guests.Then, with peaceful steps, he turned and left. "What kind of road is this?" Zhang Yinglin was dissatisfied, "What a big shelf!" "Take it easy!" Wang Qingqi said, "I guess it's Cheng Baylor." "No. I have seen Cheng Baylor." "Anyway, they must be the sons of princes. Take your time to find out." Having said that, Wang Qingqi wanted to avoid debts next year, so he hid at a fellow countryman's house in Jingdong, so he didn't have the time to inquire.On the day of delivering the stove, Zhang Yinglin came unexpectedly, and when we met, he said, "I've been looking for you for several days, and I'm really exhausted!" He lowered his voice again, called his number and said, "Jing Qi! Do you know who we met in Xuande Tower that day?" "who is it?" "It's the emperor." Zhang Yinglin seemed afraid that he wouldn't believe it, "It's absolutely the emperor." Wang Qingqi was surprised and happy, but kept blinking in a daze, but Zhang Yinglin was a little apprehensive. Seeing Wang Qingqi's expression, he became more and more uneasy, so he specially found him and said what he wanted to ask. "Jing Qi," he whispered, "Could this be a disaster?" "Disaster?" Wang Qingqi rolled his eyes and asked, "What disaster?" "Wouldn't it be dishonorable for the two of us to play the huqin and sing in the restaurant like this?" "Hey! How did you come here?" Wang Qingqi thought his words were ridiculous, "According to your thinking, what should you say about the emperor's private business?" These words made Zhang Yinglin unable to answer, but he couldn't let it go, although he didn't know where the disaster came from, he always felt that such an adventure was too abnormal and definitely not a good thing. Wang Qingqi felt that his behavior would lead to disaster, so he used many examples, saying that there were only advantages and no disadvantages in this matter.But you should keep calm and treat it as if nothing happened, then Jane is in the emperor's heart, maybe one day you will find the name, remember the old things, the emperor will reward Xuande upstairs for a song, at least let go of poor exams, school and politics, it will definitely be able to take advantage of it less cheap. "Yes, 'Keep calm and treat it as if nothing happened.' Don't talk nonsense, otherwise the master will hear the rumors, and you and I will be in bad luck!" "That's right! Heaven knows, Earth knows, you know and I know, don't let other people know, remember, remember." When Zhang Yinglin left after being instructed, Wang Qingqi sat alone in a daze.His cousin saw him frowning for a while, smiling for a while, talking to him, answering irrelevant questions, faltering, and saying nothing, so he was a little scared. "Jing Qi," he pushed him and asked, "Could it be that you have phlegm syndrome? You are so old, you must not make trouble for me!" It was only at this moment that Wang Qingqi came to his senses, collected himself and said, "Cousin, I'm about to change my luck!" He told the story of meeting the emperor. His cousin was startled: "There is such a thing?" "You don't look at my friend, who is looking for me from all over the world. Why? Just to tell me the news. It's true, and the opportunity is great. It depends on whether I can seize this opportunity." Wang Qingqi said , "Catch it, the advantage is that, maybe after a move, next year, a magistrate will be released, and the shabbyness of the poor Hanlin will be washed away." Hearing what he said was conclusive, his cousin was also happy on his behalf.So Wang Qingqi had to borrow money, because he had to go out to do errands, and as soon as he went out, he might meet creditors, and he could not pass the customs unless he repaid the debt. After borrowing money and carrying a hundred taels of silver with him, Wang Qingqi went to find two people, one surnamed Li, who was a one-eyed dragon. Blind man"; another surnamed Sun, Xing San.Li Wu and Sun San, like Lu Taizi, can compose plays, and Wang Qingqi just wanted to get a few books of niche plays with them. Naturally, he refused to sell the private secret book.Wang Qingqi arrived a long time ago, and there is another saying that it was written by secret decree and handed over to the Shengping Administration for reenactment.Once performed in the palace, it must be popular outside, wouldn't it be an instant hit?At the same time, he promised to copy out the script of Da Nei Kun Opera in the future for them to adapt Pi Huang, in exchange. This talk moved Li Wu and Sun San, and each gave a secret book.Wang Qingqi then went to the Nanzhi shop in Liulichang, bought good-quality rice paper, asked the shop assistants to type Zhu Sige, took it back to his relatives, and concentrated on transcribing it in regular script, and then sent it to Liulichang with yellow silk thread. Bound into a book. Of these two books, one is "Yue Lai Dian" compiled by Li Wuxiazi, which is based on a story written by a down-and-out high-ranking official. The story of Mr. An's chance encounter with the chivalrous girl He Yufeng in Yue Lai Dian.The other is called "Fate of Prosperity", which describes the down-and-out scholar Lu Kunjie, who falls in love with the "King of the Mountain" and Xu Yi loves his daughter Di Yunluan.Later Lu Kunjie found out that the father-in-law was actually the "Village Master" who robbed the house, and he was unwilling to be humiliated in the cottage.But Di Yunluan also understands righteousness, and in order to fulfill his husband-in-law's willingness to abandon the dark and turn to the bright, he temporarily bestowed the special skill of "male and female darts". Lu Kunjie was able to repel the leader guarding the road all the way and descend the mountain safely.These two books are both niche dramas, both of which are playful, and they are both literary and martial.The venue was very lively. Wang Qingqi figured out the emperor's will and thought that once he entered the submission, he would be praised. However, there must be a way to submit an application. The easiest and most effective way is to find the eunuch who is on duty in front of the imperial court, but it will cost money, and the amount of money depends on one's status.Wang Qingqi thought to himself, Zhang Yinglin must be contacted for this. Where did he get the news, so "there" tried to submit it. "There is a way, I'm afraid of getting into trouble." "You don't have to be afraid!" Wang Qingqi pointed to the two exquisitely decorated notebooks and said, "Look at the back! If there is any misfortune, I am alone, but if there is any blessing, we must share it." Zhang Yinglin turned to the last page, only to see a line of teeny small script written at the end: "Chen Wang Qingqi kneels in".He nodded and said, "Forget it! I'll find someone to do it." He was looking for a fellow from his hometown, the shopkeeper Hao who owned a restaurant, and he was very familiar with the eunuchs in the palace. He explained that for the envoy fee of forty taels of silver, he would definitely enter the Qianqing Palace, but the days could not be limited, it depended on the opportunity. "Yes, yes." Zhang Yinglin specifically urged: "You must make it clear that it was entrusted by Wang Qingqi, the reviewer of the Imperial Academy. Please put up the money, and it will be returned within the year." "It's a small matter of money." Shopkeeper Hao asked kindly, "But why did you buy fireworks for others to set off?" Zhang Yinglin didn't dare to say anything for fear of causing trouble, because shopkeeper Hao might hesitate if he said it, and the matter would not be done. "There's a reason for it," he said, "I'll talk to you in detail when I have free time some other day." Shopkeeper Hao is really a warm-hearted person. When handling the matter, he made his own claim, explaining that it was Wang Qingqi and Zhang Yinglin's "filial piety to the emperor".The entrusted eunuch found Liang Jiqing, the eunuch of Qianqing Palace, and entrusted Xiao Li Jincheng. "How much did you take from him?" Xiao Li smiled, "Tell me the truth, and I will do it for you." "Pile forty taels of silver in the bag, you don't like it, and I don't have the heart to ask for it. Just figure it out, if you can do it, you can, if you can't, return the things to others. " The words were quite harsh, and Xiao Li was quite displeased. He really wanted to return the "things to others", but he opened the notebook and changed his mind. This is a good pastime for the emperor, so why not keep it. "Okay! I'll see." Years passed in a blink of an eye, and on the day when the lanterns were lit, Daoming issued an edict: "The Hanlin Academy edited Zhang Yinglin, reviewed Wang Qingqi, and walked in the Hongde Hall. This is my honor!" As soon as this edict was issued, it immediately became a topic of discussion among court officials. "Walking in the Hongde Hall" is the master, Zhang and Wang, regardless of their qualifications and knowledge, are not qualified to walk in the Hongde Hall.
