Chapter Three Hundred and Eighty Eighth: Something Happened
As soon as August came, even the capital was hot. The weather was dry and the things were dry. The dignitaries had already taken out the ice from the cellar. Zhu Houzhao had moved to the Cold Hall, and basins of ice were arranged in the small hall while gnawing on the ice watermelon. The little emperor was in a good mood at this moment. Well... the palace test was almost done. If nothing unexpected happened, Ye Chunqiu had arrived in the capital these days. The Jinyiwei had already reported secretly along the way, and he was on a canal boat.
The brothers and brothers are finally going to meet, so it is better to ask him for some martial arts skills.
While chewing the watermelon, Zhu Houzhao looked relaxed and comfortable all over, and her whole body was cool, which was so cool.
The person on duty today is Zhang Yong, the eunuch in the imperial prison. Zhang Yong is a person with a broad mind and fat body. However, because he is fat, even though the breeze in the hall is blowing, he still sweats heavily. Zhu Hou took care of him and joked: "Part zhang, you are too fat, it's time to lose weight. Look at you, if I want to fight in person in the future, it will be inconvenient to take you."
Zhang Yong moved his fat body and said with a depressed look on his face: "Yes, yes, I will die."
Zhu Houzhao spit out the melon seeds and shook her head and said, "It's so boring. No matter what I say, it's a thousand deaths. You should go and watch it."
Zhang Yong shivered and suddenly stopped feeling hot, then looked at Zhu Houzhao pitifully.
Zhu Houzhao also felt that he had said a little too much, so he put down the melon peel and said, "Okay, okay, don't look like this. I was watched by you since I was a child, so how could I bear to die? I calculated my life. Ye Chunqiu probably should have arrived in the capital. The damn Jinyiwei didn't get any news. Partner Zhang, do you think there was something delayed in the middle? The palace examination will be held in half a month. He will not delay it?"
Zhang Yong also knew Ye Chunqiu, but he didn't take this person seriously. In his opinion, His Majesty was just a joke.
Zhang Yong disagreed, but said with a smile on his face: "Who dares to delay the palace examination? Now candidates have already arrived at the Ministry of Rites one after another. According to me, Ye Chunqiu will come in just a few days."
When Zhu Houzhao heard this, he felt relieved and smiled and said with a smile: "No, so good, um, Zhang Fan, are you eating melons?"
The little emperor's thinking was a little jumping, and Zhang Yong couldn't keep up with it. He subconsciously said, "I dare not eat it."
Zhu Houzhao shook his head and sighed, very melancholy. He picked up a piece of iced watermelon and continued to chew it wildly. Then he threw the messy melon peel aside, and touched his stomach: "I remembered a story that Master Wang told me, saying that it was the year of the Northern Song Dynasty. There was an emperor, haha... He felt that the summer was hot, so he wanted to eat ice, so he ordered people to take ice out of the ice cellar and eat it seriously, haha... guess what, vomiting and diarrhea, and he couldn't get out of the ground for half a month. What did Master Wang say... Oh,
Master Wang said that this incident warned the emperor that although the emperor is the emperor, he must abide by etiquette and law. He must eat as if he eats, and drinks as if he drinks as if he wants to do so. Sooner or later, he will suffer. However... Master Wang can always reason with me at a glance. When I heard this story, I felt that the emperor of Song Shi was stupid, haha...haha...don't he know that the ice in this ice cellar was stored for half a year and could not be eaten at will? This ice can only be eaten with squeezing."
After saying that, he picked up another piece of melon and said to Zhang Yong with great might: "Look, that's how you eat it."
Another crazy chewing.
Zhang Yong swallowed his saliva, but he didn't dare to say anything.
But before Zhu Houzhao finished gnawing the melon on his hand, he suddenly covered his stomach, and felt a little uncomfortable on his face, saying, "Oh, my stomach hurts, hurry, hurry, I want to give him a respect."
Zhang Yong was speechless. Finally, Zhu Houzhao was respectful, and his steps were staggering back, and he lay on the soft collapse in exhaustion: "I'm really seeing a ghost. I'm not going to pass by this year. I'm eating melons so hard that my stomach hurts. Oh, I'm going to rest, you're waiting outside."
Just as he was about to take a break, an eunuch hurried in and said, "Your Majesty, it's not good, the big thing is not good, the Jinyiwei is urgently playing, urgently playing..."
Zhu Houzhao was soft and just leaned on the soft collapse and said angrily: "Bold..."
Before he could continue, the eunuch said carelessly: "Your Majesty, Shouning Marquis... Something happened to Shouning Marquis..."
Shouning Hou...
Zhu Houzhao then cheered up a little.
This Hou of Shouning is the younger brother of Empress Dowager Zhang and Zhu Houzhao's uncle Zhang Heling.
This uncle is the most unreliable. Zhu Houzhao has never liked him. He always thinks that he always talks about his deer-headed and mouse-eyed eyes. Today he said that he wanted to be a great monk and that he wanted to go to the mountains to practice immortality tomorrow. This person... is crazy.
Zhu Houzhao beat him up and said, "Oh, what's wrong with him? Is he sick or dying? Doesn't he have any immortal methods? He said that he can prolong his life, oh... He is so amazing, just let him do his method, don't delay my rest."
The eunuch almost cried: "It's roughly...it's almost the same. The Marquis of Shouning went to Beitongzhou the day before yesterday..."
Zhu Houzhao narrowed his eyes and looked very envious. He also wanted to take a walk in Beitongzhou or Tianjin Wei, but he couldn't.
Zhu Houzhao said slowly: "He is not waiting for the capital, what should he do in Beitongzhou?"
The eunuch said: "I said I was going to seek immortality, and said that there was a living immortal in Beitongzhou, called the supreme mother. Hou Shouning led people to seek immortal medicine. Who would have thought that when he arrived in Beitongzhou, he would be kidnapped."
Hearing this, Zhu Houzhao suddenly became energetic and suddenly got off: "Kidnap? Who dares to kidnap him? This Beitongzhou is a place in the vicinity of the emperor, and he was so robbed by the Shouning Marquis, why was he robbed? Could it be that he asked for other people's elixirs and was reluctant to give money? He is such a person, stingy and afraid of death, I really hate him."
The eunuch smiled bitterly and said, "No, later the Jinyiwei found out that the so-called supreme mother was a member of the White Lotus Sect. The leader was a guy who claimed to be the supreme mother. A few days ago, a group of White Lotus thieves were suppressed in the capital and took hundreds of people. In order to rescue the White Lotus Sect, they made trouble in Beitongzhou. Not only did they seize the Marquis of Shouning, but they also rebelled with the Left Guard of Tongzhou in Beitongzhou... Now the entire Beitongzhou is in chaos..."
The left guard of Tongzhou rebelled...
