Jinghong Building

Chapter 328 Dark Night (Two Chapters Integration)

During the day, someone in the court proposed to go north to seize the imperial capital. With one call, more than a dozen young officials came out and spoke generously.

Of course, this is only brief.

The passion and blood of young officials were soon extinguished by the cold water poured from their heads. Some were dissatisfied with gritting their teeth and staring at them, but were stopped by their boss or commander.

The new emperor sneered in his heart. Don’t he want to cross the river?

Of course he thought.

Since the news of King Jin's defeat reached Jinling, the new emperor wanted to move north.

From beginning to end, the only thing he feared was King Jin.

The wealth of King Jin and the military of King Jin were beyond his reach.

Even the final failure of King Jin, the new emperor blamed Fu Yansheng and Feng Xieying.

In the view of the new emperor, the King of Jin was mistakenly believing Fu Feng and the others. It was the two who turned against each other that led to the failure of King of Jin.

And He Ran is just a witch who harms the country and the people, and the new emperor is not afraid.

But the idea of ​​crossing the river just flashed.

The new emperor is not the young man in the court today, he knows his current situation clearly.

The enemies now are not only He Ran, but also Zhou Cangyue who is close to you, and Wang Hao who is with the barbarians.

He didn't want to use all his troops to fight against the court like the King of Jin. He fought in front, but was confiscated by He Ran's hometown later.

The new emperor is sure that once he decides to attack He Ran, the imperial army will cross the river with his front feet, and Zhou Cangyue's Huwei army will attack Jiangnan.

By then, the court would be attacked from both sides.

But life is also difficult now. He Ran occupied a large area of ​​land in Jiangbei, Wu Dongming occupied the northwest, Zhou Cangyue occupied the two lakes, and Wang Hao was in Guidi.

After the court came, the new emperor was still in a heavy mood. He took out a copy of the memorials that had been piled up and opened it and found that it was for money.

The new emperor was unhappy and threw the memorial aside and took another one, but he still asked for money.

He said to the **** around him, "What's wrong? Shouldn't these be sent to the Ministry of Revenue?"

The **** hurriedly smiled and said, "It's my negligence, so I'll send it to the Ministry of Revenue."

When he said this, the **** knew very well that these notes had been submitted by the cabinet masters after screening them. It was not that the Minister of Revenue did not see it, but that he had no choice but to send it to the imperial court and let the emperor find a way.

How could the new emperor not understand?

He stood up hatefully and said to another eunuch, "Let's go, go to the Imperial Garden."

The Imperial Garden is only half the size of the previous Qi Wang Mansion Garden. Although it is still full of flowers in this cold autumn, it looks like a new emperor.

Flowers are the most inspiring when they are in bud.

"Where is Wu San, I haven't seen him for two or three days."

The new emperor's voice was faint, his smile was gentle, and he was as elegant and quiet as the white chrysanthemum in the blue and white porcelain pot on the desk of the study room.

Meiren Qiao in the rockery pavilion in the distance looked crazy.

She has been in the palace for half a year, but she can only watch from a distance. The new emperor has never turned her sign.

Not only her, but all the dozen people who entered the palace together were like this.

People in the palace said that it was because the new emperor was busy with the government and did not want to be indulged in beauty. Occasionally, he went to the residences of the Empress, the Imperial Concubine and the Shu Concubine, and he just sat down and never stayed overnight.

You know, those who were waiting by the new emperor when they were in the residence.

Therefore, everyone in the palace knew that the new emperor was nostalgic for the past. Although he had a young beauty, he still did not forget the old man and was a true gentleman.

Meiren Qiao sighed, saying that the new emperor is a gentleman, but she doesn't want to. She wants to be favored by the new emperor, she wants to fly to the branches and be a phoenix, and she wants the king not to court early from now on.

Meiren Qiao looked at the new emperor in the distance, wishing she could stick her eyes to it.

Her father had more than a dozen concubines and more than twenty daughters. They were recorded in the name of the main wife since childhood, and they were nominally legitimate daughters.

From childhood to adulthood, they not only learned to learn piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but also learned to serve men. Although she is a virgin, she has unique skills and knows how to please men.

Just once, she can make the new emperor unable to live without her, just once!

But for half a year, she didn't even have a chance.

She also thought about seeking an encounter. She did not try it herself, but encouraged Meiren Liu. Meiren Liu really went there. The new emperor just smiled gently and asked Meiren Liu to go to the queen.

In just a few days, news came out that Meiren Liu was infected and died.

Meiren Qiao secretly thanked that fortunately, she was not the one who crashed into the emperor's arms that day, otherwise she would have died of death like Meiren Liu.

Thinking of this, Meiren Qiao reluctantly withdrew her gaze. She would better wait. If the emperor still doesn't get close to women, she will think of other ways.

She knew there was a fragrance, and she would be moved when she smelled it.

Unfortunately, the new emperor was like a solid piece. Meiren Qiao took a lot of effort to bribe a little **** named Abao.

Abao is only twelve years old. Although he is the godson of Eunuch Xia, the **** who is close to the emperor, he is too young and cannot reach the emperor for the time being, so he can only do some chores.

But it is better to have such a person than not. This little Abao is a straw that Meiren Qiao can catch now.

Speaking of Cao Cao, Cao Cao is here.

Meiren Qiao was about to walk down the rockery, but saw Abao walking towards her.

Meiren Qiao winked, and the maid Qingxing quickly walked down the mountain, hid behind a Taihu stone, and shouted softly, "Abao, Abao."

When Abao heard someone calling him, he looked up and saw a face exposed behind Taihu Stone.

"Miss Qingxing, why are you here?" Abao is a polite child.

Qing Xing said with concern: "It's cold, you're wearing so thin, isn't it enough for cotton coats?"

The new emperor advocated frugality, and the empresses in the palace stopped sewing new clothes, and of course the eunuchs and palace maids should do the same.

Others can still wear old cotton coats from the past two years, but little eunuchs like Abao cannot do it. They are still growing and can no longer wear old clothes.

Abao felt warm in his heart and quickly said, "No, no, I am strong and not afraid of the cold. I can't use cotton clothes now."

He had cotton coats, and his godfather paid for more than a dozen godsons to make new cotton coats. He used half-old face, but there was new cotton inside, which looked old and would not attract attention.

Qing Xing smiled and said, "Where are you going in a hurry?" Abao didn't doubt that he was there, and said casually, "Godfather asked me to leave the palace to do business."

Qing Xing looked at the sky and said, "I'm still leaving the palace so late? When you come back, I'm afraid the palace gate will be closed."

Abao: "It's okay, I can catch up."

He has been there for his godfather several times, and he can come back before closing the palace gate. Besides, today is earlier than usual, and he has enough time to talk to Qingxing.

"Are you going to buy something? Eunuch Xia, please let you go out alone?" Qing Xing asked.

In the past, there was a little **** named Zeng Fu in the palace who could go out to the palace to buy every day. At that time, it was said that all the empresses in the palace asked him to help buy things. Zeng Fu often carried a lot of money on him, but he was targeted by the thief. Zeng Fu was killed by someone for money. It took more than ten days before the body was salvaged from the river. It was soaked beyond recognition. Even his cousin, Eunuch Tang, could only recognize him with his clothes on his body. .

Eunuch Tang couldn't afford to get sick, and later asked to leave the palace. He now lives in a temple outside the city.

Eunuch Tang came from Qingzhou with the new emperor. The palace said in private that if Eunuch Tang had not asked to leave the palace, it would not be the turn of Eunuch Xia to be the celebrity around the new emperor.

But since the young **** Zeng Fu died, the palace has never allowed the eunuchs to go out alone.

Qingxing didn't know that Abao had gone out before. She just heard Abao say he wanted to go out, and she thought it was strange, so she asked this question.

No mistakes, one song, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one reading!

Abao hurriedly said, "It's either to buy things, I'll just go to the alley opposite. It's not far away. I'll come back if I go, and there won't be any trouble."

Qing Xing watched Abao leave, returned to the pavilion, lowered her voice, and told Meiren Qiao what Abao said just now.

Meiren Qiao had a gaze. She knew that the alley opposite was not as close as it was, and there was also a distance between them. However, compared to other places in Jinling City, this place is the closest to the temporary palace.

What did Abao go there to do?

And go back?

It was already evening and dinner was about to be used.

Back at his palace courtyard, Meiren Qiao took out a calf carved from jade and said to Qingxing, "See Abao again, give him this. He is a ox. By the way, he makes confusing words from his mouth. What did he do in that alley."

As he said, he went and came back.

It was like this every time, and he just knew that there was a man named Wu San living there.

Every time he knocks on the door, an old woman will come to open the door. He told the old woman that if you have something to do, he will look for Wu San.

Just these five words, leave after saying it.

The same is true today. After Abao said those five words, he walked out of the alley.

For some reason, he felt someone was looking at him, and when he looked back, he saw nothing.

Abao didn't care and jumped back to the palace.

Abao came back before dinner. He didn't have to be on duty and could go to eat without work. Therefore, when he was having dinner, his godfather, Eunuch Xia, was still serving the new emperor with hunger.

After dinner, it became dark.

Wu San was sitting in the yard, he was still waiting, and when it was dark, he was about to go out.

The crying of the little girl came from the room. Wu San was annoyed and shouted to the room: "My mother, what did you do? Why did she cry? What should I do if my eyes swollen when I cried?"

Last time there was one, his eyes were red and swollen, which made the one very dissatisfied.

The eyes that like clear and bright without dust.

The old woman's scolding came soon from the room: "Don't cry, if you cry again, you will strangle you to death, and even your parents will strangle you to death."

The crying gradually disappeared, Wu San breathed a sigh of relief and shouted in the hedge room: "My mother, don't forget to put eye drops on her."

This eye drop is a good thing. It was rewarded by Eunuch Xia and prepared from the Imperial Hospital. If you drop a few drops in your eyes, you will be so sensible.

Of course, the more beautiful the little girl is, the more popular it is.

It finally got dark. Wu San stood up, stretched, turned around and entered the house. After a while, he walked out of the house with a pocket on his back.

The old woman chased after her, slapped her in the pocket, slap her twice with a bamboo stick, and said viciously: "Don't cry on the road, do you hear it!"

Wu San was unhappy: "My mother, when is it now? You still stabbed her with a bamboo stick. That person is very careful and the child's skin is tender, and you can see it at a glance."

The old woman hurriedly hid the bamboo stick behind her. She was used to it and forgot that the one in front of her was about to send it out.

"Then, what should I do? I've been stabbed." The old woman was a little panicked.

Wu San glared at her angrily, turned around and walked into the house: "What should I do? I can only change one. I told you that you are not allowed to **** them again in the next few days. If you don't keep them well at that time, we are so stupid. It's gone."

The old woman regrets and is afraid, so she can't lose this job.

The mother and son are kidnapped. Caisheng was sentenced to death for cutting off the cage and asked for money to be redeemed in the death row. First, they wandered around in a remote small place and picked some beautiful little girls to send them to Jinling. The business was okay at the beginning, but it became more and more difficult to do later. Two times, they encountered bandits on the road. Although they saved their lives, the little girl died and injured. There were two more times when they were investigated by the checkpoint. They were considered to be the flower shooter. They were imprisoned in prison for a whole month, and of course they had no children with them.

After many accidents, the benefactor decided to let them live in Jinling for a long time.

In the past few months, they had two or three children a month, most of which were in the villages around Jinling. Many families did not pay attention to their daughters at all, and they would lose them if they lost them and would not report to the officials.

But the one above didn't like it, saying that these girls were thick-handed and had a scent of rustic smell.

The benefactor was not happy and felt that they were lazy.

The little girl above who likes fine skin and tender flesh is the kind of child who looks like a delicate and soft skin, and she is full of delicate spirit in her bones.

Where is this happening in the countryside?

They went to Suzhou and Hangzhou, and the women in Suzhou and Hangzhou were all like water and green onions, and the little girl was also cute.

It was midsummer at that time. On the way back from Suhang, two little girls had heatstroke. Later, they started to have diarrhea. When they arrived in Jinling, they lost weight and were skinny. Not to mention the one above, they themselves felt that they could not make it.

There was no choice but to take action in Jinling. In the past two months, they got ten and sent six in. The man was generally satisfied and generous. The mother and son finally tasted the sweetness.

The old woman dared not think about it now. If she had no such errand and no benefactor on her head, the mother and son might have been sent back to the death row before they left Jinling City. Last time it was Qiu Hou's beheading, but this time it was It is time to be executed.

The old woman entered the house and checked one by one. Finally, she had to carry out the little girl who was brought back today and said to Wu San, "Just her, this one is the only one that hasn't been pierced today."

Wu San was very angry. My mother would cause trouble all day long.

"Come on to wash her quickly, hurry up, what time is it? Don't forget to wake her up."

The little girl was brought back only today. She used her sleeping pills and is still asleep now.

The old lady was guilty and timid, and did not dare to neglect. She quickly washed the little girl, making it fragrant, and applied it to the little girl's forehead with a cloth dipped in cold water. The little girl woke up and opened her mouth to cry. The old lady stuffed the cloth towel. He came to her mouth and scolded, "Be obedient, don't cry, you'll take you home."

Wu San could not wait any longer and urged, "Okay, it's time to leave."
