Chapter 7 The emperor also has an involuntarily

Fanyang, the imperial capital Xiangquan City.

"Your Majesty..." A white-haired, white-browed and red-clothed eunuch bent forward and whispered, "Your Majesty, don't work too hard. The little princess is just upset and goes out of the palace to relax. Nothing will happen."

Emperor Mingzen stood with his hands behind his hands and stood at the top of the palace and looked at the dark sky. The Jiuwu dragon robe was shining with the unique luster of silk in the moonlight. He was silent and ignored the respectful greetings of the eunuchs in red.

"Your Majesty, if you don't go back to the bedroom to rest, several princes have sent people to find the princess. Your Majesty just needs to wait patiently!" The eunuch bent down and looked more humble and obedient.

"Wow--" The emperor sighed leisurely and turned around endlessly.

"Your Majesty..."

"It was because of my decision that she ran away. She blamed me in her heart, and I can feel it... After all, I want to use her marriage as a bargaining chip in exchange for the royal family's control of the army and sacrifice the child's happiness for the rest of her life, and I am also like a knife!" The emperor said in a low voice.

The old eunuch was silent, frowned slightly, and looked sad. "Your Majesty, relying on his loyalty to the Huangfu family for more than 40 years, can the old slave dare to ask a rebellious word..." As he spoke, his bent down a little more.

The emperor turned around, looked directly at the old eunuch in red, smiled slightly, and said, "Guo Ameng, you are the earliest and most loyal to support me in the fight for the throne. After I sat on the dragon chair, in the cleaning of the Fanyang military system, many people who are difficult for me to solve the problem in person are you to do it for me. In the past 20 years, I haven't seen that you have been loyal to the Huangfu family. I know what you have paid for so many years. Now I can tell you that the Huangfu family regards you as yourself, and you will be allowed to commit three death crimes in the future!"

The old eunuch immediately knelt down, his forehead pressed against the cold ground, and bowed like a red-shell shrimp. This eunuch, who has been an eunuch all his life and has been an extreme minister, actually burst into tears - who said that Bo Liang is more than the emperor's family? The eunuch had no home and no worries. Many of them spent money to enter the Haohao Palace in order to get a good eunuch for a lifetime. They may not even be able to enter the inner courtyard of the palace in their lives. They are dying of old age, and they can't even see your majesty. Being regarded as yourself by the master is warmer than the great reward of heaven!

The eunuch's life is the most worthless. He went to the general trend and was inferior. He was often scolded and beaten. He slapped himself and laughed to make amends for himself. When he entered the palace, his master warned him that when he was a eunuch, he should kneel more, look more at people's faces, practice himself more, and always remember that he is inferior to others - it is not a low official position, but that he is inferior to others. You also need to know how to be contented. If you can stand, don't want to sit. Standing is at least much more comfortable than kneeling, isn't it?

Step by step, starting from the small eunuch, he was humble, climbed to the eighth grade and third-class eunuch, and then to the sixth grade first-class eunuch; it was determined that His Majesty Ming Chan, who was still the prince at that time, followed by Geng Geng, and was promoted to the fourth grade eunuch; then he came forward to kill a former elders and meritorious ministers of the previous dynasty 20 years ago, this Then he replaced the dark eunuch's uniform with the current red python-patterned robe and became the second-grade imperial eunuch who was close to his majesty. Along the way, the ignorant teenager with black hair turned into white hair like snow now. Who knows the hardships?

"Amon, get up!" The emperor laughed softly and bent down in person and helped the old eunuch under his armpit to lift him up. The old eunuch was flattered and pale. He knelt down with a plop and dared not raise his head.

"Then get up by yourself, I won't help you... I only remember that I was a toddler at that time. At that time, you held my arm and followed me step by step, lest I would fall. Now that you are old and have worked for me all your life, I think it's nothing to help you... Emperor's courtesy, but the rigid etiquette can be greater than decades? The emperor turned around again and looked at the night sky. He heard the sobs of the old eunuch behind him and smiled at the corners of his mouth. I almost forgot it when I was a child, but I remember the scene where you helped me walk clearly.

"Your Majesty..."

"A Meng, did you just want to say that I am obedient to Lu Miaobai and Lu Zhuguo's words, like a puppet, and even my own daughter is going to be put in...?" The emperor said leisurely.

The old eunuch gasped, looked nervous and wanted to kneel down.

"Don't kneel... You have been kneeling for Huangfu's family all your life, and I can't bear to let you kneel again." The emperor said indifferently, "Yes, this is a great rebellious word. If it were someone else, even if he didn't die, he would be cut off his post and expelled from the imperial capital... So I said that you would be allowed to die three times without dying in the future. Originally, I wanted to hear you personally say this rebellious words, but I was afraid of forcing you to say that the relationship between you and the Huangfu family will be broken. I sent some... After thinking about it, I'd better say it myself. It's not difficult for you!"

The old eunuch was speechless.

"Your Majesty, did you know that Lu Miaobai is very powerful? Deliberately let it go?" The old eunuch asked softly.

"Well, I'm not blind, and I think I'm not weak in my life. Lu Miaobai is still talented, but the city is extremely deep. He has been traveling to Mengyang for nearly 20 years. I don't know what he has experienced, but I can feel that Lu Miaobai is particularly ambitious. The emperor's mind skill, the ministers take advantage of the dragon skill, and the officials and ministers of Fanyang are all taking advantage of the luck of the Huangfu family to strive for the rise. But I'm afraid that what Lu Miaobai learns is not the dragon riding skill of climbing the royal family, but the dragon-killing skill that restrains the power of the emperor..."

"Dragon Slaying?" The old eunuch muttered these words. In his life, he only knew that a master was loyal to death, and he didn't know how to ride dragons and kill dragons, but the 'dragon slaughter' made his back chill just by saying these three words.

Inexplicably irritable and flustered, the old eunuch's eyes were clean, and he couldn't see that the minister was rebellious. He looked awe-hearted and said, "Your Majesty, let the old slave kill this Lu Miaobai?"

The emperor seemed to laugh, "I can't kill... at least I can't kill now. Fanyang is in the most critical transition period, killing Lu Miaobai. Who else can replace him and understand every detail of the operation of the empire? Lu Miaobai manipulated all kinds of strategies and killed him. Not to mention his previous achievements, the future direction of Fanyang is not clear... It's not worth it!"

" Raising a tiger is more harmful..." The old eunuch said in a low voice.

"Step by step... Fanyang is indeed much more powerful than before. In particular, I am quite satisfied with the degree of implementation of the policy. In addition, the funds invested in the restoration of the army have also been effective. I just want to abandon Ning Zheng and win a powerful general. I don't want to do it, but I have to do it!"

"Your Majesty is going to marry the princess to the seed?" The old eunuch asked sadly.

"What do you think?" The emperor asked rhetorically and smiled, "Comment on the heroes of the young military and political generation in the empire!"

The old eunuch pouted his dry lips and thought for a moment and said, "Now there are three unmarried children in the general of the empire. Yang Yunhao, the son of the chief general of Aoyu, is gentle, upright and full of learning. A few years ago, he went to Beijing for the national examination. The article was favored by several Chinese scholars. Now he has been praising Han Ming of Hongyu Temple for several years. In the future, he may not be able to become a Hongru, and his achievements are unlimited. Yin Zhe, the son of the newly resurrected General Yan, was born in martial arts. The old slave is also a martial arts practitioner. After checking the record of this son's battle with people, he took the way of sinister assassination and hiding the hidden disguise of a master, but he did not go to the bright road, which is contrary to the grand righteousness of the royal family. As for the last... Li Qingyu, the son of the Cang navy, even if you don't mention it, the princess will never marry such a kind of thing!" The old eunuch closed his eyes and shook his head repeatedly and muttered.

"Hehe, that's right. I am also very embarrassed. From the perspective of these three young people alone, what I admire most is Yang Yunhao, the son of the master general of Aoyu, who may become a generation of great Confucianism. He is modest and reasonable, gentle temperament. Ning Zheng is marrying him, and I am the most assured. But judging from the strong military power behind them, Aoyu's long shot is more than the top, and it is not worth marrying a woman. And the strength behind Yin Cangyan, the general of the imperial palace, is still recovering. In another three years, the scene of the flame flag burning all over the world will appear. I'm afraid that our enemies will not give us three years to recover..." The emperor said coldly.

"The wind and thunder of Mengyang's cavalry force has been put into use. If Emperor Mengyang Linxi takes the lead in the battle, Fanyang can only respond in a hurry. Moreover, it is difficult to guarantee that these generals are not worried about my purge in those years. If they don't contribute, Fanyang is in danger.

"So Your Majesty is going to marry a daughter in order to repair the relationship between the royal family and the military? Is this the method proposed by Lu Miaobai? The old eunuch felt a little depressed.

"Well, indeed, I am indeed hitting myself in the face. In the destruction of the military system, I never thought that one day would be useful for the army. Living in peace without thinking about danger is a lesson. I only have one daughter, Ning Zheng. If there are more daughters, I don't mind marrying them all, but I'm going to be wronged..." The emperor sighed helplessly.

"There is also Li Qingyu, the son of the Cang navy, a promising dung beg, but the Cang navy behind him is the strongest army in the empire at present. Even if General Yu Dianyan has prestige and leadership, the hastily pulled up of a number of troops without strength can't be compared with the Cang navy that has been recuperating for so many years. To be honest, I'm not optimistic about the comeback of General Yan, and I really want to keep the 150,000 navy in the palm of my hand..."

"So your majesty decided to marry Princess Ning Zheng to Li Qiuer?" For the first time, the old eunuch raised his white eyebrows and looked directly into the emperor's eyes. It was rare that he did not dodge.

"I haven't decided yet, just wait... I haven't talked to her properly. As soon as I heard that I wanted her to get married, I ran away from home without saying hello. My daughter has become too big and I can't stay... By the end of this year, the position of prince and Ning Zheng's marriage will be settled together!" The emperor lowered his head and said.

"It's better to set the position of the prince as soon as possible, so as not to secretly form a party for personal gain, such as the big prince, the second prince's party... sounds annoying. It's just that your majesty must think twice about Princess Ning Zheng's marriage..." The old eunuch bowed and said.

"Ha ha, Amon, in your opinion, Ning Zheng's marriage is more important than the heir of Fanyang's throne?" The emperor turned his head and smiled.

The old eunuch still lowered his head and said muffledly, "The old slave only felt that if he was forced to do what he didn't want to do, it would be too boring to live. It's better to die. The princes are jealous of the throne. They are willing to compete for the throne of the crown prince. There is nothing to say if they are willing to gamble and lose. It depends on the princes' ability. But Princess Ningzheng, a girl's family, was forced to marry and suffered a big douche all her life. The old slave can't stand it. I really can't stand it..."

"If you can't stand it, you have to see it. I also want my daughter to marry a worthy person, but the Huangfu family abandoned a daughter for the sake of Fanyang. It's nothing. I have to do so." The emperor said resolutely, his hands clenched into fists, as if he had made great determination.

The old eunuch bent down and bowed his head as if he had accepted his fate. His eyes closed and his expression was sad and desolate.
