The lady of the boat knows that the people in the cabin must be several senior officials. She can also guess that since she entered the room, she has been leisurely and comfortable, but she can tell that the noble childe is definitely the highest status and status among those people. It is likely that he is a prince or a nobleman, or a very close relationship between the royal family and the palace, otherwise Then, how can those senior officials in court obey his command.
The old lady who came out of the cabin stood at the bow of the boat, looking at the sparse and dim lights on the river bank. Suddenly, the figures appeared in the willow trees. She left in a hurry and said that she was going to invite the Lord Chengdu of Luoyang to come here.
After seeing the shadow of the old lady in Luoyang, she still felt the sound of smiling on the water.
But in the blink of an eye, the procuress didn't know what was going on. There was a sound of iron hooves in her ear. Then the figure who had just rushed down had boarded her boat from the side of the boat.
One by one, the armed guards with their faces and colors were armed with crossbars in their waists. Some even carried crossbows on their backs. With their eyes shining, they went to the cabin. Before she could react, the guests, who were not so many, were driven out at this time.
The daughter, who was still playing the piano in the stern of the boat, was stopped by those martial guards to continue playing the piano. Looking at the cabin which became a little noisy for a while, the old lady was just about to turn around and walk into the cabin to see what happened? How in the blink of an eye, his boat was surrounded by officials.
But as soon as she turned to move, she saw a bright horizontal knife brush in front of her. The frigid cold and the cold light on the blade made the procuress feel a chill in her back.
"Be honest. We've got the boat today. The others have to get off." A Wu Wei looks at the procuress son that startle uncertain eyes to say.
's thick foundation conceals many emotions on the face of the pimp, but he can't stop the mouth of the pimp. "But cocoa, sir, these guests haven't paid yet."
Looking at the panic seeking guests from the front of their eyes and being driven away by the military guards, the procuress's heart seems to be dripping blood. If these people leave like this, where will they go tomorrow to ask for money, and who will admit it.
"Don't worry. Someone will give it to you later." The procuress heard the reputation and saw that the pockmarked adult in the cabin on the second floor was coming from the empty stairway.
"My Lord, minnu, it's a small business. I can't afford it." The procuress knows that these people are good at talking. After all, in all the officials she contacted over the years, she has more or less summed up some experience.
That is, most of the officials with high official positions and great powers have no airs. Sometimes they give you a very low-key feeling, which makes you can't imagine that he is the legendary official.
The other is that the official position is not high, the power is not big, but the airs are very big. No matter where he went, he seemed to be afraid that others would not know that he was an important official of the imperial court. Sometimes people would think that he was the emperor's holy master.
Di Renjie looked at the pimp's face, which looked pale because of the foundation. He smiled and said, "you can rest assured that the silver left by the guests will come out of us."
After that, without waiting for the old lady to speak, di Renjie waved to the military guards to start blocking the river area. At this time, the sound of horse's hooves just in the distance stopped on the river bank. In a short time, along with the riverside road and the river bank and other places, the soldiers with helmets and armor blocked the river.
Although it has long been a common practice for your majesty to go to the painted boat or the people in humble clothes, there is no need to block the Luoyang River like this. But just now, when his majesty talked to Du Bing and others, they still secretly communicated with each other. After all, this time, the imperial court used its active power to deal with the noble families headed by five surnames and seven hopes. Even imperial concubine Wen ran to contact one Some Rangers spread public opinion in Luoyang.
However, these Rangers have never been restricted by the imperial court, and they only do things according to their own preferences. Who knows if the rangers who appear on the river will be harmful to your majesty.
No matter the other boats across the river or those not far from the left and right sides, driven by the military guards, they began to drive slowly from the calm river to the distance.
Li Hong, standing in the window on the second floor, listened to the noise outside. He opened the window to have a look. On both sides of the relatively calm river, the boats were moving away slowly. He could not help shaking his head and laughing bitterly.
Since he became the emperor, his personal freedom has been restricted much more than when he was the crown prince. There is no unrestrained appearance in those days. Even if he goes out alone in humble clothes, he doesn't know how many people are protecting himself.
"Li Qiao, is this the idea of you and di Renjie again? How many times have you said that if you do this, you will be shocked if nothing happens. Originally, no one knows what's wrong with this boat. After all your trouble, who can not know that this boat is different from other boats? People who are interested in it will notice it all at once. " Li Hong turned to look at Li Qiao and said.Next to her is Lin Cui, the only one who is still playing in the boat. At this time, the only sound of the harp and harp of this small boat is flowing slowly from her.
"I'm not afraid of ten thousand, just in case. In case someone startles you, it's our fault. In this way, the lower officials are also afraid of their appearance. In case, we should take strict precautions." Li Hong said with a smile.
When Li Hong talked to Li Qiao, Wang Xiaojie and Yao Chong, a noisy footstep came from the stairway, and then Di Renjie's voice was heard: "please, young master has been waiting for you for a long time."
As di Renjie's voice disappeared, the door was opened at the same time. It was not a big cabin, but it became a little crowded after several middle-aged people came in.
Because there was no command from Li Hong, Lin Cui was still stroking the strings when people came in, and the sound of the instrument was still flowing from her fingertips.
But she quickly looked up and saw her husband, Guo Jingzhi, following several people. She was dazed and lost. She walked in with the crowd. When she saw that she was in the room with Du Bing and others, Guo Jingzhi's expression was tight again. She began to think quickly. Today, she invited herself and her wife here, and they were in the end What's your heart.
But looking at Lin Cuiping's calm look, she still plays the piano slowly. It seems that she is forced here by Du Bing and others, waiting for her own rescue. So she can't help but look like Lin cuinuzui, but she is ignored by Lin Cui.
"Are you du Shenyan? Are you Guo Jingzhi? Do you know each other? " Li Hong looked at a few people standing in a row against the wall and asked faintly at the table.
"The minister is Du Shenyan I have met your majesty, and I know this young master Guo. " Du Shenyan originally wanted to salute first, but before he had time to salute, Li Hong began to ask questions, so he had to answer and salute at the same time.
Guo Jingzhi, who was also asked by Li Hong, felt a blank in his mind at this moment after hearing Du Shenyan's words. He could not believe that the young man in his thirties sitting in front of him was actually the emperor of the Tang Dynasty.
And Lin Cui's music was out of tune again when Du Shenyan was saluting and answering, but this time it was even more serious. After the string broke out of tune, it suddenly broke, which made her hand freeze in the air again, and her heart was happy, worried, frightened and afraid for a moment.
I'm glad that I didn't expect that the one who listened to his own account just now would be his majesty, and the worry was that for a while, if Du Shenyan denied it, would his majesty still believe what he said? At that time, will he be implicated in his husband, will he be put into prison by his majesty.
Just as Lin Cui lowered her head and thought about the fate of her husband and herself tonight in a mixed mood of joy and sorrow, she heard her husband reply to Du Shenyan and said in a similar way: "Xiao Min Guo Jingzhi has met your majesty."
After many years of marriage, she could hear her husband's tone as nervous and nervous as her piano voice. Even the words were intermittent and trembling.
"I've heard that these two people tried to find you to redress their grievances. But after you received the gift, you didn't help them. And your son forced others with words because he coveted the beauty of Lin Cui. Is that true?" Li Hong looked at Du Shenyan with a dignified face.
"When I return to my highness, I have never received any gifts from them. I have only met Guo Jing once. It was last year. The reason why I remember so clearly is that he was also a scholar of the Tang Dynasty. When he failed to pass the imperial examination last year, he thought that someone had taken his place. I think this is nonsense. The imperial examination is always fair and just. There is no room for carelessness. No one will bend the law for selfish ends. How can anyone impersonate him. Therefore, the minister Nian did not pay attention to and investigate his defamation of the imperial examination. As for the child who was greedy for his wife's beauty Your majesty, Duhe is 19 years old, and Guo Jingzhi's wife Du Shenyan said here, glancing at Lin cuihou, who was sitting in front of the window with her head down, she said: "although she looks beautiful, she is several years older than her child. Moreover, she is already a woman. How can children like her? I think this is Guo Jingzhi and his wife. Because the minister did not pay attention to their complaints, he took the opportunity to slander the minister and the child."
"But when I asked your son Du Jue just now, he admitted that he was greedy for the beauty of Guo Jingzhi's wife Lin Cui. He also said that as long as Lin Cui obeyed him, he would ask you to make decisions for their husband and wife, and even he could not take part in the Imperial examination and directly recommend him to an official career." Li Hong glanced at Lin Cui and Guo Jingzhi. Their faces were very scared at the moment.
