Will Ming

"Peach and plum, the queen circles around Yangzhou, just like turning around in the garden. Don't make waves, who will promise!"

Daye Emperor Yang Guang murmured and slowly closed the melody. He closed his eyes and thought for no reason of his father's ferocious expression when he was dying and his nearly roaring request: kill that child surnamed Li!

He let out a long breath and suddenly felt an irresistible fatigue.

"One knife, what do you think?"

he asked with his eyes closed.

There were only two people in the whole spacious study room, and what he asked was the eunuch who was standing beside him slightly bent over.The eunuch was wearing a blue brocade suit and stood nodding.Looking at his appearance, it is difficult to determine how old he is, his face is very pale, and he doesn't know whether it is well maintained or natural, his skin is as smooth as a virgin.He has a beautiful face, smooth forehead, and a pair of curved eyebrows like willow leaves. His eyes are very bright and deep. If you apply light makeup on him, you will really be a [-]-year-old virgin who can be confused with the beauty of a flower.It's just that the fine wrinkles on the corners of his eyebrows still vaguely reveal his real age, and there are a few strands of white hair on his temples that he has carefully hidden.

"I'm a eunuch, according to Gaozu's legacy, eunuchs are not allowed to meddle in politics."

The eunuch who was called Yidao by Yang Guang answered unhurriedly.

He is the only eunuch in the entire palace who is allowed by Yang Guang to call himself my eunuch, which is his unique privilege.His status in the palace is very special, so special that he can enter and leave the imperial study room at will.But he is a very self-disciplined person and never touches something he shouldn't touch.In his opinion, national government affairs and so on are trivial matters that are not worth mentioning, and have nothing to do with him.What he valued was only the person sitting on the dragon chair, not the country.

Angered by the eunuch's cold answer, Yang Guang opened his eyes and glared at the eunuch who almost grew up with him.But after opening his mouth, he finally suppressed the growl.

"Tell me, this is not a state matter, but a family matter of my Yang family."

He closed his eyes again, but there was an imperceptible plea in his tone of voice.He didn't want people to know that he was tired and helpless, and he didn't want to show his sensitivity and helplessness even in front of this playmate from childhood to adulthood.

"Your Majesty, you have no family affairs."

He glanced at Yang Guang with a sharp knife, and his tone was still tepid: "Your affairs are all state affairs."

"You old dog! You just don't want to help me! Why do you say these bastard words to evade!"

Yang Guang finally couldn't suppress his anger, he opened his eyes abruptly and stood up, grabbed the memorial on the table and threw it at him.The memorial was hit on Yidao's chest and fell to his feet. Yidao's expression did not change at all. He bent his knees and bent down to pick up the memorial, and dusted off some dust on the memorial.Under Yang Guangneng's murderous gaze, he walked over slowly, put the memorial on the table, and then bent slightly back to the place where he was standing just now.

Yang Guang glared at him, and the finger pointing at the center of his brow trembled involuntarily.

Seeing that the emperor was really angry, the eunuch Wen Jie, the eunuch who had a very special status in the palace who was bestowed by Yang Guang couldn't help but sighed, and he looked at the emperor with a hint of distress in his eyes.

"Your Majesty, I'm just a eunuch."

Wen Jie said very seriously: "Your Majesty actually doesn't need to ask me what I think, you just need to tell me how to do it. Whatever Your Majesty thinks, I think so."

Yang Guang was slightly taken aback, then sat down on the dragon chair and said angrily, "Who is this nursery rhyme referring to? Tao Lizi, Tao Lizi, I can't kill everyone named Li in the world!"

Wen Jie didn't have so many complicated troubles in Yang Guang's heart, he replied lightly: "If your majesty wants to, then kill them all."

"You stupid old dog!"

Yang Guang was annoyed by Wen Jie's irresponsible answer. He pointed to the outside of the palace gate and said, "How many people with the surname Li are there in this world? They are all killed, and other obstacles are ignored. How long does it take to kill people? Could it be possible that I will leave state affairs behind from today and go door to door to check what's the name?"

Wen Jie bowed his head and said: "I don't know how many people surnamed Li exist in the world, but if Your Majesty really wants to, I'll just kill them one by one. There will always be a day when they will be killed."

"fart!"

Yang Guang pointed to his nose and asked, "Do you want the whole world to call me a fool?"

He suddenly remembered the person who gave him all the food in Huaiyuan Town, and his heart was shocked.Could the nursery rhyme be referring to him?It's just that he denied his guess after a while.Speaking of which, that person is still his cousin. Over the years, his official position has been demoted by him, from a senior official of the third rank to a small official of the fifth rank. I have not heard any complaints from him, and he is still conscientious in his work.In Duliang, Huaiyuan Town, the man had only a thousand grain guards under his command.Thousands of people can be crushed into fine powder with one little finger.

It won't be him.

Yang Guang retracted into the large dragon chair, frowning and thinking.

"Go and call Dugu Xue, the servant of the Ministry of Punishment, this kind of thing...he is more concerned about it."

Wen Jie's heart tightened, thinking of the soft and ruthless methods of that kid from the Dugu family, he almost opened his mouth to advise the emperor not to do this, but he nodded in the end.He silently turned around and walked outside the study.

"One knife!"

Yang Guang called Wen Jie to stop: "You were also there when the father died... the child named Li he mentioned..."

Wen Jie stopped, didn't look back, bowed slightly and said, "Your Majesty, don't worry, he's just a wild child. That man named Li Jing reported all the whereabouts of those little horse thieves, and I've already sent someone to Yanshan If Your Majesty is not at ease, I can go there in person, at most, before His Majesty personally goes, I promise that there will be no more iron Buddha horse thieves in this world."

If Zhang Zhongjian and Hongfo heard the name Li Jing at this moment, they didn't know how they would feel in their hearts.Zhang Zhongjian and Tie Futu's people have always suspected that Youzhou Luo Yi sent people to watch their whereabouts, so how could they have thought that it would be the sworn brothers Li Jing and Li Yaoshi who betrayed them for official titles?Especially Red Buddha Zhang Wancheng, if he knew that the person he cared about would do such a thing, would he be heartbroken?

"Kill! Kill it clean!"

Yang Guang took a deep breath and said, "After the new year, I will go north to visit Zhuo County. Before I go, I will kill all those messy green forest thieves! In addition, Li Jinglian's brother and his wife who are married It's not a good thing to betray, want to be an official? If I don't agree, he will continue to be his mountain villager!"

"Yes!"

Wen Jie bowed his head.

Walking out of the study room, Wen Jie saw that the high walls and deep palace suddenly became very dark, even the sky on the high walls was so gloomy that it made people feel numb.For some reason, his impression of the palace suddenly changed, and a word popped up out of nowhere and quickly occupied his mind.

cage

He was a little annoyed, and felt that the palace was a big cage.

It's time to go out for a walk, just to relax.

He walked to the distance, summoned a young eunuch and said: "Your Majesty summoned the servant of the Ministry of Punishment to see you, go."

This little eunuch had only been in the palace for a few months, and it was the first time he spoke to Wen Jie, even his legs were still shaking slightly.Half excited, half terrified.What is exciting is that if he can get the appreciation of Wen Jie, he may not be able to rise to the top in the future, and maybe he will become the first palace manager. As for the fear... On the first day he entered the palace, he watched a little eunuch who annoyed His Majesty be killed by Wen Jie. Xie ordered it to be steamed alive in a steamer.

He thought too much, Wen Jie actually didn't see what this little eunuch looked like at all.

Duguxue, the servant of the Ministry of Punishment, hurried to the imperial study room. He tidied up his clothes carefully and walked in.He couldn't guess what was the purpose of His Majesty's summoning this time, and the little eunuch, who was obviously a newcomer, was a rookie who didn't know anything!

"see this"

Yang Guang pointed to the secret note and said, "I trust you, you speak boldly."

Duguxue was startled, carefully picked up the memorial and opened it for a look, and then felt as if his whole body was immersed in cold water.He finally knew what His Majesty had summoned him to do. His Majesty was going to kill someone.Although he has a reputation for being cold-faced and vicious, that's all he shows on purpose.During these years in the Ministry of Criminal Justice, he actually saved many people.Ruthlessness is the amulet he puts on himself, just to keep right and wrong away from him.

Looking at this memorial, he knew that what he said today might lead to the death of someone, maybe it would lead to the decline of a family!

But he knew from His Majesty's expression that he had to say it.He asked the little eunuch who delivered the decree, and it was Wen Jie who sent him there.That is to say, His Majesty was with Wen Jie before, that eunuch... he was very taboo.Sighing in grief and indignation in his heart, he really wanted to catch up with the eunuch who was bestowed with a knife by His Majesty and ask, you don't want to offend others yourself, why bother to push me out?

How did he know that the emperor directly called his name.

"I think...the nursery rhyme is nothing special...just a nursery rhyme for the occasion?"

Duguxue said something cautiously.

Yang Guang waved his hand and said, "Say what you should say, say what comes to mind, I didn't call you here to let you deal with things, and you don't have to test what I'm thinking."

Duguxue felt a chill in his heart, knowing that today's affairs will never be good.

"I think that there is indeed no specific person."

He stiffened his neck and repeated.

Yang Guang suddenly opened his eyes wide: "If you tell me, you can say it! I don't want to say it a third time."

"Yes……"

Duguxue bowed his head.

"Tao Lizi... There is no doubt that the surname is Li. I don't understand the following words very well. At the end there is the word Wulang-yu... Could it be a secret?"

"Surname Li, keep it secret?"

Yang Guang muttered, then suddenly woke up: "Could it be Li Mi!"
