Chapter 5 Emperor's Servant
In many novels, movies and TV that Lu Qiang has read in his previous life, there are scenes of dragons and crouching tigers hidden in the palace. Therefore, it seems impossible to say that Zhao Xiu is an unrecealed martial arts master.
It's a pity that Lu Qiang did not inherit any memory from his predecessor Sima Dezong. It can be said that he has no impression of Zhao Xiu, or the cheap old man who has died for a long time.
In fact, it is no wonder that Lu Qiang. Even Wang Shenai doesn't know who Zhao Xiu is. She only knows that she has hardly seen Zhao Xiu leave her husband since the day she entered the palace. It can even be said that Zhao Xiu spends more time with her husband than her.
And Zhao Xiu, as the emperor who decided to stay to protect his son, how could he let others know about him? If he hadn't seen the emperor's mind unexpectedly turn back to normal, he would have even brought the secret to the ground.
Zhao Xiu couldn't help but feel a little anxious that his confession had not been recognized by his majesty, but he was soon relieved that his majesty had lost his previous memory. Of course, he would not remember the explanation and instructions of the former emperor, but fortunately, he had proved his ability, and your majesty would soon know.
At present, he continued to say respectfully, "Your Majesty, please forgive me. The thief Sima Bao, who turned his back on his ancestors and was rebellious, actually dared to force your majesty. The old slave has dealt with him without asking for an order. He will never see the sun tomorrow morning. Please wait and see."
About Sima Bao, Wang Shenai has told Lu Qiang that Lu Qiang knew that it was definitely a damn thing. But there should also be guards around him! Will it be so easy to be killed?
Seeing that Zhao Xiu was still kneeling on the ground, Lu Qiang came to his senses and said hurriedly, "Get up quickly!" At such an age and the ground is so cold, don't kneel down easily." He paused and said, "How did you kill Sima Bao?"
Just like Wang Shenai, Zhao Xiu has served Sima and his son for two generations. For nearly half his life, have you ever heard a heartwarming word? Not to mention that the current emperor Sima Dezong is an idiot, the former emperor Sima Yao is not so good. He has been soaked in wine all day, confused, and only woke up for such a moment when he was dying.
So now I have listened to Lu Qiang's greetings to the old man with a normal human reaction, and the corners of my eyes are a little moist.
He didn't want to lose his temper in front of the emperor. He got up from the ground and lowered his head and said, "The old slave has done some tricks on Sima Bao. Although he can't feel anything now, as long as the sun comes out tomorrow morning, his blood vessels will burst and die, and the immortals can't be saved."
Lu Qiang understands that Zhao Xiu's method should be to kill people invisibly. I didn't expect that there was such a martial arts in the world? It seems that many things in the novel are not fabricated.
Thinking of this, his head was hot and said, "Lao Zhao, how about teaching me your kung fu?"
"Cough... Your Majesty, it's not that the old slave refuses to teach, it's really... Your Majesty's age is no longer suitable for practicing this kind of kung fu. Moreover, this kung fu is too sinister. How can your majesty..."
The emperor is a golden mouth. How can the words he said be allowed to be refuted? Especially for a person whose loyal thoughts have gone deep into the bone marrow, he has to do whatever the emperor says, but the emperor's request really made him unable to do it, and he blushed for a moment.
Lu Qiang actually knew that his request was a little too much, and he regretted it after saying that, but when he saw Zhao Xiu like this, he was also funny in his heart. Isn't this old eunuch too dead? As soon as he said it casually, he took it seriously. No wonder he didn't become famous with the two generations of emperors.
Half-trud and half-fake: "Hehe! Zhao, you don't have to be nervous. I'll just say it casually, but to be honest, you can always teach me some simple skills that can strengthen your body, right? Look, my fat body is hard to walk. How can I fight with those thieves in the future?
After listening to Lu Qiang's words, Zhao Xiu was silent and didn't know what he was thinking. After a long time, he said, "Your Majesty, are you serious?"
"Of course it's true, otherwise why would I tell you this?"
Lu Qiang believes more and more in his judgment. This old eunuch should be the kind with less developed limbs and too simple in mind, but this is no wonder. Who let him be born in this era?
In fact, this is also good. At least you don't have to worry that he will have different feelings for himself.
Of course, it is impossible for Zhao Xiu to know what Lu Qiang really thinks, but as a person next to the emperor, although he has been silent for half his life, his knowledge and court struggle experience are obviously much better than Lu Qiang, a fake.
In addition, as Lu Qiang just thought, it can be said that most of the eunuchs in the palace are Zhao Xiu's disciples and grandchildren, so he knows much more than Wang Shen loves.
took a step forward and lowered his voice and said, "Your Majesty is not in a hurry to exercise in advance. Seeing that another day is about to dawn, the usurpation of Huan Xuan's thief is imminent. The old slave means that your majesty will restore his mind. For the time being, you must not let others know that your majesty is still dealing with the Huan thief with a bad body. Let's talk about it after this."
Just now Lu Qiang felt that Zhao Xiu was a little brainless, but after listening to his words, he couldn't help looking at him differently. How dare this old man has been pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger! I almost didn't let him cheat. It's not in vain that his predecessor could have such a confidant.
As Lu Qiang thought, the first emperor Sima Yao was cowardly all his life. The only thing he did right was to leave a competent bodyguard for his son.
Zhao Xiu usually doesn't talk much and follows the emperor like a shadow all day. What kind of thing has he never seen? Although he has only one belief in his mind to protect the emperor's safety, it does not mean that he has no opinion on other things, but that he has no opportunity to show it.
Now the emperor's illness is not only cured, but also cares for him (although it is just a simple greeting, it still moves him enough). This invisibly stimulated his loyalty and involuntarily said what he thought in his heart.
Although the queen and several little maids are also confidants, Lu Qiang felt that Zhao Xiu did not say everything. Even when he spoke, when the corners of his eyes were looking at several little maids, there was no murder inside.
Of course, silence is the most effective and commonly used method in ancient times, but Lu Qiang is not a real ancient emperor, and at the same time, he is not so vicious, let alone a few little girls who can be regarded as confidants. Therefore, he can't do anything to kill people.
nodded and said, "This is a must, but I believe that the queen and them will not spread the matter"
Lu Qiang's words are equivalent to denying Zhao Xiu's idea of killing people, but also made Wang Shenai, who was nervous, feel relieved by listening to Zhao Xiu's words.
Your Majesty's illness is not only cured, but also becomes affectionate and righteous. God treats me very well.
Zhao Xiu only had the emperor in his eyes. What the queen thought had nothing to do with him. Hearing the emperor say so, she couldn't help frowning slightly.
Lu Qiang did not give him the opportunity to continue to persuade, and then asked, "Have the civil and military ministers in the court been bought by Huan?"
"The old slave is not sure about this, but at present, the thief is powerful, and the capital is full of his people. At this time, I believe that even if there are still ministers loyal to you, I am afraid that I dare not speak, but your majesty does not have to be discouraged. The old slave believes that there must be ministers loyal to you inside and outside the court, but they are just the thief * *Under the power, it's just a temporary dormant"
Although I have thought of this result, Lu Qiang is still a little frustrated. Why can't he meet those iron-bone ministers who are common in TV novels?
After pondering for a moment, he suddenly said, "Lao Zhao, I want to take the queen out of here. Do you have a way?"
After listening to Lu Qiang's words, Zhao Xiu couldn't help but stand for a moment and said in a trembling voice, "Your Majesty wants to abandon the country left by his ancestors?"
I just felt that this old eunuch had a brain! Why did you become stupid again in a blink of an eye? You don't even think that Huan ascended the throne here and robbed Laozi's position. If I continue to stay here, will there be good fruit to eat?
I rolled my eyes and said, "If I don't go out, how can I contact those who are still loyal to me?"
One sentence suddenly made Zhao Xiu understand, and his old face immediately smiled like ** and said, "Yes... The old slave is stupid, which is still the long-term thought of your majesty. However, I'm afraid this matter also needs to be discussed in the long-term. The thief's surveillance of your majesty is still too tight now."
Lu Qiang also knew that this matter was really urgent and nodded, "You think about it!" Let's wait until tomorrow." After a pause, he said, "It's getting late. You all go to rest! The queen and I are going to sleep."
What should be said, and what should be asked has been asked. Now all we can do is wait. Take one step at a time!
Hearing the emperor say that he was going to bed, several little maids of honor got busy again. Some came to make the bed, and some came to undress Lu Qiang and Wang Shenai.
After adding a few braziers in the hall, I could no longer feel cold, especially a few more people, and there was no longer a cold look when he first opened his eyes.
"Hey... What are you doing? No need... I'll do it myself..."
As a modern person, how many little girls have been treated as undressed? As soon as the hands of several little maids of honor touched him, they immediately jumped up in fear.
"Are you going to die? How dare you disturb Your Majesty?"
When Zhao Xiu saw Lu Qiang's behavior, he shouted in a habitually shrill. He knew that it was not that they scared Lu Qiang, but Lu Qiang scared them.
After hearing Zhao Xiu's anger, several little maids who were stunned by Lu Qiang's behavior knelt down and said in unison tremblingly, "I deserve to die, please forgive me..."
As the leader of the eunuch, although he usually doesn't have many words, but looking at the eunuch maids of the whole palace, no one knows what the reason is. He only knows that the person who offends him will never have a good end.
This and that! Isn't it just that you don't have to take off my clothes? As for this?
He turned his head and stared at Zhao Xiu and said, "Why are you scaring them? Go, you go to bed, too. There are still a lot of things to do tomorrow! And you, get up. When did I say I was going to blame you? Really"
"Hehe! Your Majesty doesn't have to worry about the old slave. After your Majesty sleeps, the old slave will sit by the door for a while."
"Watch me sleep?"
Lu Qiang couldn't help but be shocked and turned his head to look at several little maids who stood up. Seeing that they had no intention of leaving, he understood that no matter what they did, there were people waiting for them, which was the treatment the emperor deserved.
Clothes come to reach out, food comes to open your mouth, and the beauty is in your arms, surrounded by fragrance. Sounds good, but as a modern person, can you get used to this kind of life immediately?
Do you also watch me and my little daughter-in-law make out?
Lu Qiang couldn't help laughing bitterly. I guess they just didn't look at it, but they wouldn't leave. This evil feudal society! It's really awkward...
