Shu Chen

Chapter 81
I don't know what happened, sent me to see the Emperor Xie?

Full of puzzlement, Zheng Pu hurried to the palace.

However, it snowed continuously for several days, so that he didn't travel by car, and he couldn't make the act of humiliating Zuo Weiyi by rushing through the streets.

It seems that the emperor Liu Shan is also quite anxious.

As soon as Zheng Pufu arrived at the palace gate of Yingtianmen, there was a guard in the palace rushing to him and urging, "Zheng Shuzuo, come with me, the emperor has been waiting for you for a long time."

uh~~~
Zheng Pu, who hurriedly nodded and accompanied him, was even more surprised.

The place where the guards who were banned by the palace were drawn was still the lotus pond pavilion where they had the last banquet with the emperor.

However, unlike the last time when more than a dozen people from the palace were crowded, only the one-year-old eunuch stood in the distance this time, and the surrounding soldiers also stood far away.

In the midst of Xiaoxue, I saw the shadows in the small pavilion, and there seemed to be three or five people.

Outside the small pavilion, there is a rather majestic general, with a helmet and armor, a battle robe wrapped around it, and a sword like a pines and cypresses standing in an abyss.

There is a thin layer of white on the top of the helmet and on the shoulder armor.

Should be standing tall, quite a while.

Zheng Pu, who came eagerly, peeked at him from a distance.

I saw that he was more than eight feet long, with a broad forehead and a straight nose, with thick eyebrows and bright eyes.Given time, the majesty and majesty of the four-footed beard is inevitable!

Moreover, he was also looking at himself, his expression was not alert, but rather curious.

The unexpected sight made Zheng Pu slightly embarrassed.

Stealing eyes and looking at people are not the actions of scholars.

Immediately, he nodded at him and smiled, then without looking sideways, he strode forward.

"Zheng Qing, I've been waiting for you for a long time!"

Before entering the small pavilion, the emperor Liu Shan stepped forward with a happy face.

"Pu, see Your Majesty."

Zheng Pu hurriedly paid his respects and said loudly, "This minister is late, and he has let His Majesty wait for a long time. Death penalty! Death penalty!"

"Zheng Qing doesn't need to hold ceremony."

The emperor with a gurgling smile helped Zheng Pu stand up, and then stretched his arms like a goshawk, and asked, "Zheng Qing, how do you feel about serving me in this body?"

The voice contained joy, slightly anxious.

It also surprised Zheng Pu.

Only then did he realize that the emperor's clothes were quite different today.

He wears a silk scarf made of silk on his head [Note 1], and he is dressed in a straight robe, with wide sleeves and gorgeous embroidery patterns.

The jade pendant on the waist is about twenty or thirty pieces only.

With double-phoenix vortex pattern bi, openwork dragon and phoenix vortex pattern bi, rhinoceros-shaped Huang, Shuanglongpu pattern four jade ornaments, from top to bottom, the middle is decorated with jade figures, jade beads, glass beads, fine beads and gold beads. The end is then surrounded by a jade ring.

Not only are they of different sizes, but also orderly, and they are colorful.

The emperor's sizable body and his long-term pampered look and words are deeply in line with the attire of the next generation and nephews of the wealthy, nobles and nobles.

"Tianhuang's noble posture, it should be like this!"

After taking a closer look, Zheng Pu praised with a smile.

But he didn't want to, the emperor listened, but his face froze.

Immediately, he raised his eyebrows and urged, "Zheng Qing, I don't look like a wandering scholar Zixie in this dress?"

A traveling scholar?

Hearing the question, Zheng Pu was dumbfounded.

For a while, he and the emperor looked at each other, speechless.

"Cough cough~~~~"

On the other hand, Guo Youzhi, the servant in the pavilion, who was old and sophisticated, coughed a few times, interrupting their embarrassment, then bowed to the emperor, and said softly, "Your Majesty, Zheng Shuzuo has not yet known about this. "

"what!"

The Son of Heaven, who came to his senses, was slightly surprised, and then nodded again and again, "Of course! Of course! I forgot, I specially invited Xiangfu, and I didn't know Zheng Qing before."

After he finished speaking, he turned around and sat down, looking at Guo Youzhi in the middle of the waiter with a smile on his cheeks.

"Guo Qing, come here to clear up Zheng Qing's confusion."

"only."

Respectfully taking orders, Guo Youzhi turned his head and told Zheng Pu everything with a smile.

It turned out that it was Zheng Pu who told the Prime Minister that day, and let the emperor go out of the palace to see the affairs of the Bashu customs and Li Shu, and the Prime Minister gave it to him.

However, it has changed slightly.

Zheng Pu's initial advice was to let the emperor go out of the palace.

Or inspecting the people's livelihood and government affairs in various counties and counties, or going to the military camp to have fun with the soldiers, or comforting the orphans and widows along the way, and giving meals to the three elders of the township, etc., showing virtue and benevolence, and making the land of Bashu admire the kindness of the Han family.

However, the prime minister, Zhuge Liang, planned to let Tianzi Qiao play the role of a scholar, and take a few close attendants to look at the local characters.

And look at the effect of the emperor's travel, and then make another discussion.

If Zheng Pu's advice is true, the emperor's insight and knowledge, power and change, etc., are more like a prince than when he is not in the deep palace, then it will be more beneficial to go out of the palace in the future.

If not, let it go.

So that the emperor's move to leave the palace will not become a play that condones the famine.

The people accompanying him were Zhuge Qiao and Dong Yun.

Zhuge Qiao, the prime minister claimed that he had been trained with the emperor, but in fact he brought books to urge the emperor to study diligently.

And Dong Yun, who has a straight temperament, is also a "living note".Record the emperor's actions and words when he travels, and present it to the prime minister to see whether the trip is beneficial or not.

Naturally, there is a cloud in "Shuoyuan·zhengjian": "In the past, the white dragon went down to the abyss of Qingling. It turned into a fish, and the fisherman shot him in the eye."

The prime minister also thought through the matter of the Bailongyu suit.

Guan Xing, who has just moved to the Central Supervisory Army, will lead five or six retinues and serve as guards.

And the soldiers he led will dispatch a troop of troops and horses to follow the emperor in the guise of a profit-seeking caravan, and the journey will not exceed one or two li.

What's more, Zhao Yun, who was in charge of the inside and outside of Gyeonggi, dispatched a team of troops and horses to escort the grains, and the Son of Heaven set off on a one-day trip in case of emergency.

Nowadays, the land of Shu is quite peaceful, and the emperor cannot be too far away from Chengdu.

However, it is also understandable that the safety of the emperor is related to the turmoil of the imperial court.

After the waiter Guo Youzhi finished speaking, he quickly blinked at Zheng Pu and glanced at the emperor's side, Fang said, "Zijin is a scholar in Shu, please wait for me and tell me how a traveling scholar should dress up."

"Of course! Zheng Qing said quickly, why is this costume of mine not similar to the traveling scholar Zixie?"

When Guo Youzhifu finished his words, the emperor who was seated on that side hurriedly urged.

It also made Zheng Pu roughly understand.

The servants Guo Youzhi, Dong Yun and others should have warned that the emperor's clothes were inappropriate.

However, it was rejected by the emperor.

After all, the late emperor only had heirs when he was in his fifties, so he naturally favored him abnormally.

The emperor has been wearing brocade clothes and jade food since he was a child, and he has grown up in the deep palace since he can remember.

After thinking for a while, Zheng Pu bowed first, walked up to the emperor, lowered his head and said, "Your Majesty, before the minister was not an official, he also traveled to and from Chengdu. At that time, the mother in the family and the uncle who was in charge of the business affairs had a message. I say: I am alone outside, I often sleep in the wilderness, and I should beware of any misfortune."

"One, keep your words and deeds carefully, and don't communicate with others."

"Both of you, when you eat glutathione, don't reveal your wealth, entice others to covet, and lead to the death of your body."

"Three, you should ask the old people for advice along the way, know the customs and taboos of the township, and don't be expelled or besieged because of public anger."

"Fourth, when walking along the post office official road, don't rush into the mountains and forests by accident, or even get lost and tired, and become a meal for the beasts."

Having said this, Zheng Pu raised his head and looked at the emperor, "I dare to say, Your Majesty's clothes are too grand and gorgeous, and it is not suitable for the journey."

Uh.
After listening to this, the emperor, Liu Chan, stroked the jade pendant he had always loved, his face embarrassed.

After a short while, the head bowed his head and sighed, "Zheng Qing's words are very impressive. If you let me break through the clouds and see the blue sky, I will suddenly open!" After sighing, he waved his hands again, and nodded at Guo Youzhi, the servant, "Traveling clothes, carriages and horses, They are all dispatched by Qing and An Guo."

"only!"

Hearing this, Guo Youzhi, the servant, bowed to take orders.

And the general who held the sword outside the pavilion also turned around and saluted.

It turns out that he is the queen of the former general Guanhou, no wonder he has such a beautiful beard!

Unable to be curious, Zheng Pu followed the sound and walked away.

But he didn't want to, and the emperor Liu Shan said again, "Zheng Qing, I'm traveling this time, I don't know how many people you bring with you? The duty of the country is to report to the father."

Hey, do I follow the evil?
Zheng Pu was astonished and stared blankly at the crowd. Seeing that they were all delighted, he couldn't help being surprised.

Shouldn't it, the place where the Son of Heaven travels is Jintang Gorge, right?
With an inaudible sigh in his heart, Zheng Pu bowed and returned, "Your Majesty, I have never been ordered to accompany you, so there is no conclusion."

"Hahaha~~~~~"

Immediately, the emperor slapped his palms and laughed, "I don't know that my father will meet Zheng Qing!"

After a burst of laughter, the Son of Heaven said softly, "Zheng Qing, your father has something to say, ordering Qing to go to Jintang Gorge to check the terrain and see if there is any possibility of opening up fields and valleys. And I and others are accompanying you and watching the scenery along the way. ."

really!

I've been cocooning myself!
Hearing the words of the Son of Heaven, Zheng Pu wailed in his heart.

Given a choice, he would never go with the Son of Heaven.

After all, the safety of the Son of Heaven is a big deal for the imperial court.Not to mention being offended by the wandering knights along the way, even being frightened or feeling the cold will make Zheng Pu attacked by the government and the public.

Advice that the prime minister is him, and he is also accompanying him, how can he be exempted from blame?

"only!"

Resisting the helplessness in his heart, Zheng Pu bowed in response.

After thinking for a while, he said, "Your Majesty, I have three people with me, one is a squire, and the other is Fu Yi and his companions."

"good!"

The emperor nodded, and immediately got up, he actually took Zheng Pu's hand and walked out of the small pavilion.

When he was a little farther from the pavilion, Zheng Pu, who was not sure where he was going, asked, "I don't know what your Majesty has asked me to do?"

"It doesn't matter."

With a gurgling smile, the emperor actually nicknamed Zheng Pubiao and said with emotion, "It is thanks to Zijin's advice that I can leave the palace this time."

After the words fell, without waiting for Zheng Pu to bow humbly, he lowered his voice again, his eyes were earnest, "Well, Zijin, my father has something to say, I am leaving the palace this time. In this matter, Zijin must give me some details!"

What's so difficult about this?

Nothing more than, eat some hardships.

Raising his eyebrows slightly, Zheng Pu smiled brightly, "Only! Your Majesty has an order, and this minister should be wholehearted. Of course, what the minister said to the Prime Minister on the same day may cause His Majesty to work hard."
