Standing at the gate of the palace, he raised his breath and said solemnly: "Chen, please see Lu Bing!"
This sound, although not high-pitched, but deep
The sound was sent into the hall, and the hall immediately became quiet. Soon Huang Jin opened the door from inside, and raised his head slightly to give Lu Bing a twinkling look as he opened the door. Lu Bing nodded almost invisibly, indicating that he had understood.
Huang Jin lowered his head to open the door, and then quickly walked into the warm pavilion of the hall, and knelt down again.
Lu Bing walked in and saw that Emperor Jiajing was not sitting on the bed cross-legged, but standing on the ground wearing cloth shoes, wearing a navy blue robes, holding a whisk in his right hand, resting on his left arm, his complexion was reddish, and he seemed to have just made hair. Too temper.
Just as Lu Bing was about to kneel down, he said, "See..."
Before the word "Your Majesty" was spoken, Emperor Jiajing impatiently threw the whisk down and said, "That's it! No courtesy or courtesy!" Lu Bing got up helplessly, before he spoke, Emperor Jiajing went on to say, "From now on. When you come to see me, don't kneel on your knees. If you delay things, I'm upset when you look at it."
"This..." Lu Bing said hesitantly: "Etiquette is indispensable."
"Huh, what etiquette." Jiajing Emperor sniffed: "No matter how rude you Lu Bing is, I also believe that you respect me, but most of the Manchu civil servants are polite in appearance, but they may not respect me in their hearts."
Lu Bing was helpless, this was to exalt himself, he couldn't deny it, so he had to hand his hand and said, "Thank you, your majesty, for your love."
Lu Bing saw Huang Jin still kneeling, and asked Jiajing, "What's wrong?"
Emperor Jiajing frowned and said, "It's nothing." Huang Jin, who was kneeling while he glanced at him, said angrily: "Okay, get up too! It's not your fault, why are you kneeling?"
Huang Jin didn't get up, just raised his head with both hands on the ground, and said with tears: "The slave. The slave hates his own incompetence. You can't share the worries with grandpa... I feel very guilty. Let the slave kneel... Kneeling the slave feels better. point."
Emperor Jiajing said impatiently: "It's okay! It's even more annoying when you kneel down! Get up!"
While talking about Jiajing, he walked to the dragon bed and sat down. Emperor Jiajing hadn't been active for many years, and after the next dynasty, he would be cultivating and meditating. His body was very weak, and he felt very tired when he got angry just now.
After Emperor Jiajing sat down, he couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief. Feeling a little thirsty, he said to Huang Jin who was still kneeling: "Don't kneel, go get me a cup of tea. Oh, get a cup for Wenfu too." Huang Jin squatted his head, stood up hurriedly, and went to give orders. Make tea.
At this time, Emperor Jiajing asked Lu Bing: "Wenfu, what can you do to see me?"
Lu Bing bowed his hand and said, "I wonder why the emperor was angry just now?"
Emperor Jiajing sighed and said, "What else can happen to the Ming dynasty year after year, such as disaster relief, rebellion, pirates in the south and Huren in the north. Can't this world stop for a few days?"
Lu Bing smiled and said: "The emperor is proficient in everything and can be sympathetic to the people. The past few years have not been much better, and it will get better and better."
The Emperor Jiajing smiled a little when he heard these affirmative words, and said, "I haven't seen you in a few days, has Wenfu also learned to flatter?"
Lu Bing smiled and said, "The emperor knows the ministers, and the ministers never tell lies."
Emperor Jiajing also smiled and said: "That's why Wenfu reassures me the most!" At this point, I can't help but frown again: "If only those gangs of civil and martial artists can be so worry-free to Wenfu, it will be fine. I am annoyed by this matter. Recently, even entering Ding has not been as easy as before."
Lu Bing didn't want to take Jiajing's Taoist remarks, so he turned back and asked, "What's the cause this time?"
At this time, Huang Jin had already brought in tea, first presented to Jiajing a cup, and then to Lu Bing.
Lu Bing received his hands and didn't drink it. Emperor Jiajing took a sip. Seeing that Lu Bing didn't move, he said, "Taste this tea first. There are not many here in Shifeng Longjing before Ming Dynasty." The emperor sighed again and said: "It's all those Japanese pirates making trouble..." Then he took a sip of the tea and handed it to Huang Jinbian and said, "Go and show the report from the north to Master Lu."
Huang Jin responded to the warm pavilion and went outside to take it. Lu Bing lowered his head and took a sip of tea. As expected, his lips and teeth were fragrant. Then he lifted the lid of the tea bowl and looked at it. One flag, one shot. Can't help sighing: "It's really good tea, it's worthy of being the Four Wonders."
Emperor Jiajing also smiled and said, "It seems Wenfu has worked hard on tea!"
Lu Bing smiled and replied: "I know one thing or two, and these two happen to be the most famous Shifeng Longjing."
When Huang Jin came in, Emperor Jiajing received the battle report and asked Lu Bing with a smile: "Then I will test you, which of these four must be?"
Lu Bing replied with a smile: "This Weichen really knows, "The color is green, the fragrance is rich, the taste is mellow, and the shape is beautiful."
Emperor Jiajing smiled and nodded, "Wen Fu deserves to be born as a Wu Jinshi, both civil and martial arts!"
Emperor Jiajing said and glanced at the war report in his hand: "It's a pity that these "four musts" are getting more and more awful."
Lu Bing asked, "Why?"
Emperor Jiajing sighed: "Pirates and Japanese pirates have been in the south for many years, and this year is still fierce. Tea farmers can't rest assured to grow tea and pick tea.
Lu Bing frowned and said, "Then why don't you send soldiers to wipe out?"
Emperor Jiajing shook his head helplessly and said: "Why is it that simple? Not to mention the ancestral motto of "No one can go into the sea". There are a lot of pirates in the sea in the south. There are inexhaustible links between this and the outside. Collusion makes it difficult to separate the enemy and us. Recently, you have received a report from Jin Yiwei's spy that Zhejiang suffers from picking wood, and civilians gather to make trouble; Yingtian, Su, Song, Chang, Zhen suffer from burning big bricks, and the potters often escape; Guangdong because of pearl picking , The poor rose up and resisted. Those civil servants, but the censors did not report, every day they either grabbed Chen Hong for a little bit of trouble to find nothing, or fight each other on the top of the hill, or else it would be an endless battle for inheritance. It’s been a few years, and it’s okay to write to me and say that I’m wrong! Are they still few of their own pickles? Oh...
In front of Brother Niu, Emperor Jiajing couldn't help complaining, sighed, and then said, "Oh, there's more." While speaking, he handed the battle report to Lu Bing: "The north is also full of trouble."
