I am the carpenter king

Chapter 97 Arrival in Beijing

() The four gates of the capital are opened on time every day, and there are many people waiting here every day. The prosperous capital does not seem to be affected by the court, and perhaps the affairs of the court have nothing to do with ordinary people.

However, those who are interested can see many differences. Every day there is no good-looking gatekeeper, but these days they are very serious.Everyone had a serious look on their faces, looking at the passing crowd with vigilant eyes, as if they were looking for someone.This made the people passing by a little nervous, and the speed of passing through the city gate was much faster. It was strange that these soldiers didn't trouble anyone, nor did they go forward to ask anything, they just stood there quietly.

The sun was in the middle of the sky, the temperature was slowly rising, and the earth showed signs of warming up. Two people came to the south gate of the capital, two people that no one paid attention to.A person was wearing a white robe, a square scarf on his head, and a paper fan in his hand.Behind this person, followed by a young man in blue, who looked like this person's follower.

The capital passed by such people every day, so no one noticed the difference between these two people.The young man in white shook the folding fan in his hand, and walked slowly into the city gate, while the young man led the two horses, and followed slowly behind the young man in white.

Looking at the bustling streets of the capital, the young man in white frowned slightly, with a complicated look in his eyes, and muttered to himself: "I was young and frivolous, and was forced to leave here. Now that I'm back this time, I want to see Look at this Jinghua Momentum."

The young man looked at his young master with a complicated expression. He hadn't forgotten what happened back then, but he was different from his young master, and he really didn't want to return to this sad place.Perhaps this is the difference between the young servant and the son, one is destined to be a young servant, and the other is still a young master even if he is down and out.

"Young master, where are we going?" Seeing his young master standing there motionless, everyone around looked over, and the servant walked quickly to the young master's side and asked in a low voice.

Glancing at the nervous boy, the young man in white nodded slightly, and said slowly: "Don't worry, this time, my young man will never be driven away like last time. I want those people to understand that don't bully the young man." poverty."

The little servant was slightly taken aback, but his heart was even more beating. The young master's eyes were so familiar, how could he be the same as those people back then?Could it be that the son has become the same as those people?

Laughing self-deprecatingly, the young man in white seemed to feel that he shouldn't have said this to the boy, he shook his head slowly, and said in a deep voice: "Go to Fengyue Tower!" followed behind him.No one paid attention to the pair of master and servant, and soon they disappeared at the gate of the city, and the place returned to its original appearance, as if these two people did not appear.

The Forbidden City in the capital is the residence of the emperor. This is something that everyone in the world knows. Emperor Tianqi lives in it at this time.Although many people want to know what it looks like inside, few people can enter.The people who really understand it, other than the emperor himself, are the emperor's women, or the eunuchs around the emperor.

The emperor Tianqi was meeting with the eunuch beside him, but this was an eunuch who could make a child stop crying, and he was Wei Chao, the governor of Dongchang.

"Eunuch Wei, I finally expected you to come." Taking a look at Wei Chao who was kneeling on the ground, Emperor Tianqi walked slowly to his seat and said expressionlessly.

Hearing Emperor Tianqi's tone, Wei Chao's heart sank. This time, the East Factory did not do a good job, and was severely suppressed by Jin Yiwei.Not only was the time late, but it seemed that the things found out were not very comprehensive. Wei Chao couldn't help complaining about Wei Zhongxian in his heart.

"Your Majesty is guilty, please punish me." As a senior eunuch, Wei Chao understood the principle of being able to bend and stretch.It doesn't matter if you lose once, you just need to get it back next time, but you can't make Emperor Tianqi dissatisfied. Once you lose the trust of Emperor Tianqi, then the situation is really over.

Nodding slowly, without quibbling or looking for reasons, this Wei Dynasty is indeed superior.After pondering for a while, Emperor Tianqi said slowly: "Get up! You are not young anymore, it is cold on the ground."

"Thank you, Lord Long En." After saluting to Emperor Tianqi, Wei Chao stood up slowly, took a stool handed over by a young eunuch, and sat down slowly.There are not many people who can sit in front of Emperor Tianqi, and there are even fewer eunuchs. Except for Wang An, the eunuch who is in charge of rites, it should be the Wei Dynasty, and there should be Chen Hong standing behind Emperor Tianqi .

"Bring up the things you found out! I hope the time is delayed, and the things won't disappoint me." Emperor Tianqi smiled lightly, as if he didn't care, and gave Chen Hong behind him a wink.

After handing over the things in his arms to Chen Hong, Wei Chao's expression became a little uneasy. Seeing that Emperor Tianqi was flipping through the pages, he stood up cautiously.It seems that there are thorns growing on the stool, and there is no way to do it.

Gently opening the memorial, Emperor Tianqi slowly read it. He read many recent memorials by himself.Li Lan's absence made Emperor Tianqi feel very uncomfortable, and he wished he could bring her back sooner.

Slowly closing the memorial, Emperor Tianqi nodded in satisfaction, glanced at Wei Chao, and said with a smile: "Although the time is a bit late, the things are good. You didn't disclose the things inside to outsiders!" Intentionally and seemingly unintentionally.

"Your Majesty doesn't have the guts, this is a matter personally assigned by His Majesty." Emperor Tianqi's words were very casual, but Wei Chao couldn't listen casually, and quickly knelt down on the ground, repeatedly defending.

"Get up! I can trust you. If it's not enough, I just said it casually! Chen Hong, give Wei Chao some of the bird's nests that were tributed a few days ago. He has worked hard for him these days." Smiling at Wei Chao, Emperor Tianqi Said to Chen Hong behind him.

"I am ashamed and dare not be rewarded." Wei Chao was slightly moved at this time, his errands were not handled well, Emperor Tianqi not only did not blame him, but also gently comforted him.

Gently picking up the memorial and tapping the Longshu case slowly, Emperor Tianqi fell into deep thought.There is no problem with the above things, and it is the same as what I thought, but Xiong Tingbi's matter was wronged.There are also some things that are a bit out of line, but they are all excusable.This memorial not only stated the facts, but also included several typical cases, and even the testimony of witnesses.

Wei Chao is very loyal to himself, this thing should be true, that is to say, Xiong Tingbi did not make a big mistake, but some people want to overthrow him.Thinking of this, Emperor Tianqi narrowed his eyes, as if he had made up his mind.
