Jiayou's Fun

Xiong Taidou escaped, and the turmoil in Kunpengfang came to an end.

Rivers of blood flowed, corpses were strewn on the ground, the fire was extinguished, and black smoke shot straight into the sky.

Fortunately, the Prime Minister's Mansion was the hardest hit, and the ordinary people in Kunpengfang were not affected much.

There were about two hours before dawn, and Lu Yu was sleeping soundly in the small Nuan Pavilion next to his study in Laiguo Duke's Mansion.

Two days ago, he went to the Tianenhou Mansion and complained harshly to Mrs. Hu. The two reached a consensus on Lu Qian's matter.

Mrs. Hu vowed to kick Lu Qian out of the family tree and out of the clan.

Lu Yu prided himself on being an elegant scholar who was calm and not concerned about anything. When Mrs. Hu agreed to the matter, he put it behind him and returned to the palace leisurely. .

While reading and writing, Qing Ke, who was hired by my sect with a high salary, found some rare pieces of ancient porcelain from somewhere. A group of people got together and held a special appreciation meeting for these pieces of ancient porcelain. It was a lively day and I drank a lot of wine.

In the direction of Haojing Imperial City, at the top of the city wall, on top of a row of one hundred and eight towering sentry towers, large butter lamps lit up, and large polished crystal mirrors reflected the lights into the sky.

One hundred and eight light beams as thick as water tanks shot straight into the sky, forming a dazzling light spot in the dark clouds in the sky.

At the night guard at Laiguo Duke's Mansion, a yawning general glanced in the direction of the imperial city. Suddenly he saw the row of brilliant light pillars in the night. He trembled and hurriedly stretched out his hand. His fingers started counting rapidly.

Just after counting more than a dozen, the high-pitched sound of bells came from the direction of the imperial city.

The ringing of the bells was mixed with the crisp and rapid chirping of jade chimes.

The general trembled, jumped down from the high sentry tower, and shouted loudly: Here comes someone, someone comes here, inform the Lord, and quickly prepare the court clothes... The court has urgently called for a great court meeting. There is no need to delay the great court meeting. We dare not delay it. If you are late for a quarter of an hour, you will be demoted to one rank!

In a short while, the sleeping Lu Yu was forced to change into a full set of imperial robes by the maid, and a frozen towel was rubbed twice on his face, causing him to wake up with a scream from the cold.

Then, he, who had no strength to tie a chicken and would fall off even when riding a horse, was stuffed into a small warm sedan. Two leaders of the family who were half-stepping through the border picked up the sedan one after another. Sayazi rushed out of the gate of the palace and ran towards the imperial city.

Behind the two leaders, hundreds of generals rode fast horses and followed closely.

The small half of Anlefang was in chaos. The nobles and officials who were qualified to go to court jumped up like their buttocks were on fire, put on their court uniforms as quickly as possible, and rushed to the imperial city at full speed, panting.

Brigades of guards surrounded their master, like streams, converging on the street, then running at full speed along the gallop in the middle of the street, roaring across the stone bridge over the canal.

Lu Yu was sitting limply in the sedan, holding on to the armrests with both hands. Even though the two generals and leaders had tried their best to stabilize his body, the sedan still seemed bumpy, and the up and down movement almost hurt his internal organs. Knocked out.

Yao Shou... It's not even the day of the great court meeting on the 15th day of the first lunar month... What are you doing? Lu Yu wailed and almost cried: There is no preparation at all, how can it be so impromptu and hasty?

According to the rules set by Taizu when Dayin founded the country, once one hundred and eight beacon pillars are lit in the imperial city, and once the golden bells and jade chimes are rung at the same time, it means that there is an emergency in the country, and all the nobles and qualified officials in Haojing are summoned. Officials from the previous dynasty gathered in the imperial city.

The beacon pillar lights up, and within an hour, those ordinary officials are just fine. Once they are late, they are just fines.

But noblemen, if you are late once, your title will be reduced by one level, which is absolutely unreasonable.

However, Lu Yu wanted to cry!

At the time of the founding of Dayin, the first Duke of Lai State had a cultivation level above the Acupoint level. He had great supernatural powers and extraordinary power. No matter where he was in Haojing City, once the beacon pillar was lit, he would You can reach the imperial city within a cup of tea.

And now Lu Yu...

Even if you let a hundred vicious dogs chase and bite him, it would be pretty good if he could run ten miles in an hour.

Change, change, we must change... Time has changed, and the laws of our ancestors cannot remain unchanged. We must change. At least the rules of this great court must be changed. We must change. How can one hour be enough?

Lu Yu, who was about to cry but had no tears, stuck his head out of the sedan window and shouted in a hoarse voice: Go slowly, go slowly... Our palace is closest to the imperial city, what are we in a hurry for? What are we in a hurry? Ah, walk slower!

Before he finished speaking, a cold wind blew in his face. The drunkenness from last night was still there, and Lu Yu felt depressed. He opened his mouth and vomited it out.

'Wow even'……

Lu Yu vomited heartily.

The sounds of vomiting could also be heard from several noble teams and small sedans in front and behind him.

Lu Yu pinched his neck in pain. At this moment, he completely became a devout supporter of Gong Yangyao, the great sage of Fa Zong who was leading the reform. He must reform to get rid of this evil habit of cutting off his title when he is late for the imperial meeting. Fa', that's the best.

A martial arts master at the peak of the Pulse Expansion Realm can travel five thousand miles in six hours.

The two leaders of the family are both masters of the half-step enlightenment realm, and their running speed is extremely fast. Moreover, they are usually 'specialized talents' who focus on practicing the method of lightening one's body.

After leaving the running guard behind the boss, Lu Yu finally arrived at the south gate of the imperial city in only a quarter of an hour while trying to keep the sedan as stable as possible.

Almost rolling out of the sedan, Lu Yu panted and slapped his chest. He took a small warm teapot handed over by the guard leader and hurriedly drank a few sips of fragrant tea.

After looking around, a group of officials who lived in Wuyinfang and Kunpengfang had already arrived at the south gate.

Lu Yu coughed slightly. He looked at the group of nobles standing on one side, forming a small circle of their own, and then at the small circle of civil servants on the other side who were clearly separated from the nobles.

He hesitated for a moment, originally thinking of sneaking into the group of civil servants to say hello, relying on Bai Changkong's personal visit.

But just as he raised his feet, he felt guilty after all. He laughed a few times and plunged into the circle of nobles. He warmly greeted a group of princes and dignitaries: Happy New Year, everyone.

A group of sleepy nobles managed to cheer up, yawned and saluted each other with Lu Yu.

They asked each other and found out that no one knew why the ministers were summoned for a court meeting today - logically speaking, there were only two days left on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, so there must be a court meeting on that day.

As for Dayin's court, there was nothing on weekdays, just ordinary government affairs. Those administrative officials met with the Queen Mother and the Emperor in private, held a small court meeting, and the matter was smoothed over.

These nobles would only be willing to meet the Queen Mother and the Emperor at the court meeting on the 15th of the first month of each quarter. After all, very few of them have substance in the court. If they have nothing to do, why do they come to court so hard?

Today's meeting, something is wrong, there is something big going on. A Marquis who was too excited last night and couldn't sleep, and took the concubine he took in years ago to climb high and look far away, lowered his voice: Last night, across the canal, I saw Kunpengfang There was a big fire, there were shouts of killing... Tsk!

The nobles suddenly became excited, and they all looked at the gloomy-looking civil servants standing in the distance.

What a pity, why didn't a few of them get burned to death? A Duke laughed strangely: But, there was a big fire in Kunpengfang? Haha, this is not comparable to the fire in Sijifang two days ago!

Blinking his eyes, the Duke took out from his sleeve a piece of white deerskin that was polished as thin as paper, as bright as a mirror, and as smooth as a mirror, and looked towards a red-robed eunuch standing not far away. Waved.

On this square piece of white deer skin, there is the seal of Dayin's emperor, the official seal of Dayin's Shaofu order, and it is also carved with gorgeous patterns. In the middle is a line of numbers - 'worth one hundred thousand dollars'!

This is the 'White Deer Money' issued by Emperor Jiayou Yinyuan, who did not go through the court channels privately, but was issued by the royal private treasury Shaofu Treasury and his Jiuquyuan private treasury. It is a white deer skin of the same size. On it, denominations such as 'worth a hundred thousand dollars', 'worth a million dollars', 'worth tens of millions of dollars' and so on are branded, guaranteed by the reputation of the royal family and the emperor!

In some circles and channels in Dayin, White Deer Money is extremely useful.

For example, if you give a certain father-in-law a favor, a thin piece of white deer skin can be easily stuffed into your sleeve, and you will get one hundred thousand, one million, or tens of millions of dollars.

But if you want to give gold, silver, or even copper coins!

Let me ask you, a copper coin worth a million dollars weighs several thousand kilograms, how can you benefit your father-in-law in person? Even if it is gold or silver, it is still a lot of burden.

The eunuch in red robe skillfully rolled the white deer money into a small roll, and with a smile on his face, he quietly put it into his sleeve.

Later, under the questioning of a group of noble men, he quickly and in detail told everything about Kunpengfang last night.

Lu Yu's face looked a little ugly.

Ah, that fellow Lu Wei, has he made a meritorious deed again? Haha! I, the Lu family of Jingyang, want to inherit the scholarly family in the future. What does this killing mean? I have really taught the younger generations a bad lesson!

Shaking his head again, Lu Yu smiled at a group of acquaintances and nobles around him and said, However, a rebel army invaded Kunpengfang? This matter is worthy of a court meeting. Hey, I don't know about the Haojing Order, Kunpengfang Order, and How should I explain to the other yamen?

The group of nobles laughed happily.

The matter has nothing to do with me, I just hang up high and watch the civil servants suffer misfortune. Although it has nothing to do with me, I feel quite comfortable in my heart.

Gradually, more and more officials arrived at the south gate.

With a muffled sound, the south gate of the imperial city slowly opened, and an old eunuch in purple robe slowly walked out and waved to the nobles: Hey, it's almost time. Is there still some distance between here and Fuyao Hall? Sirs, please come early.

Teams of young eunuchs in Tsing Yi lined up, carrying sliding poles, and poured out from behind the old eunuch.

Lu Yu and other nobles came forward with their heads held high, took out pieces of white deer money and handed them to the little eunuchs. They sat on the slide leisurely and let the little eunuchs carry them and trotted along. The galloping road behind the south gate of the imperial city leads directly to the Fuyao Palace behind the triple palace gate, which is nearly twenty miles away.

The civil servants on the side all let out a poof, both envious and angry. They lined up neatly, and under the command of the eunuchs, they spread their legs and marched forward hard.

The little eunuchs walked briskly and had a certain level of cultivation. It only took them a quarter of an hour to cover a mere twenty miles.

Lu Qian stepped off the sliding pole and patted his robe calmly.

Then, at a glance, he saw Lu Qian standing under the magnificent pedestal of Fuyao Hall, joking with several old eunuchs around him.
