Chapter 232 Happy King of England
Du Chuanyun rode with King Ying and trotted all the way. King Ying sat in front, extremely excited, and kept shouting "drive", but the reins were held in Du Chuanyun's hands.
This was the first time the King of England had been riding a horse, and the average speed was enough to make him happy.
The King of the East Sea and Han Ruzi followed behind on horseback. "The life of the common people is not bad. I'm almost used to it." The King of the East China Sea said.
There was no honor guard shouting and supporting, and there were no common people who panicked to give way and stand with their hands tied. King Donghai felt that this was the life of commoners, and said it was a habit, but he sighed involuntarily, "This also shows that our lives are not important now, so-called His dignity is worthless... Look, that guy is glaring at me!"
King Donghai pointed at a pedestrian on the street with his horse whip. The man did look in the direction of King Donghai. After a while, he suddenly smiled and waved. It turned out that he saw an acquaintance behind King Donghai.
Donghai King was even more dissatisfied, "He actually doesn't recognize me! Which of my clothes and hats are not obvious? Sometimes I really need a guard of honor, and I have to sway the market before these guys can open their eyes and take a look..."
The King of the East Sea nagged all the way, but Han Ruzi just listened and did not agree.
They were not walking fast, and someone ran ahead to send the three people's greetings to the Prime Minister's Mansion. Therefore, as soon as they arrived at the entrance of the alley, a large number of people from the Prime Minister's Mansion greeted them.
The King of the East Sea nodded in satisfaction, "This is just like saying, the prime minister knows the rules better than the common people."
In order to show respect, the visitor dismounted, and King Ying wanted to ride for a while, but was carried down by Du Chuanyun. Seeing the crowd, the child's attention quickly shifted. King Ying was the elder, and Han Ruzi and the King of Donghai were happy to respect him and protect him. Many servants gave way, and even knelt down and kowtowed. When the three walked past, they got up and followed behind.
King Ying clapped his hands and said with a smile: "The prime minister's house is really fun, are they all here to greet me?"
"Of course, you are the son of Emperor Wu." Donghai King said, looking at the crowd in the alley, his eyes showed a bit of jealousy, "No wonder the ministers all want to be prime ministers, look at the posture here, it is different from the heyday of Cui Mansion. The princes and kings are incomparable, no, the princes and princes who stay in the capital cannot compare, and the princes and princes in the country are said to be more ostentatious..."
Han Ruzi also secretly sighed in his heart that he, the prince and grandson, had been in vain for more than ten years, except that he had seen a few big battles when he was the emperor, and most of the time he was much more shabby than the Prime Minister's Mansion.
The Prime Minister's Mansion alone has hundreds of servants who greeted the gate, almost as many as the entire population of the Marquis' Mansion.
Yin Wuxian could not refuse the visit of the three, nor could he hide it, so he simply made a big splash.
Outside the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion, the two sons, five grandsons of the Yin family, and a large number of relatives with official positions or titles have been waiting for a long time. When they saw the three descendants of the royal family, they immediately greeted them and gave them a big ceremony. Personal supervision, but also can not pick out faults.
When they entered the mansion together, the King of the East Sea crossed the top of King Ying's head and whispered to Han Ruzi, "Old man, he was already prepared."
Yin Wuxian had been an official for many years, and it was not easy to be promoted to prime minister in the most brutal old age of Emperor Wu, and he still had the ability to deal with unexpected accidents.
In the living room, the family members of Yin family served tea in person, thanked the three of them for visiting their father, and then introduced their relatives one by one. According to their grades, they bowed their hands or bowed their heads, and the etiquette that they should have could not be omitted.
The Yin family was delaying the time, Han Ruzi and Donghai Wang both noticed it, but they couldn't refuse. The two were guessing the reason in their hearts. Someone came in and reported that the champion was visiting in person, and also came to visit the prime minister's condition.
Han Ruzi and Donghai King looked at each other and had to admire the slick wit of this old man. The four descendants of the royal family who were fighting for the throne visited at the same time, making it impossible for outsiders to guess the true position of the prime minister, and he could be in a detached position again.
Champion Hou obviously came in a hurry after getting the news, his face flushed slightly, and he bowed his hands to Han Ruzi and the others as soon as he came in, smiling and greeting, as if they had already made an appointment to meet here.
The King of England was happier, and he liked as many people as possible, especially since everyone regarded him as a distinguished guest, surrounded him and curry favor with him.
"Champion Hou, have you put food in your family?" King Ying still remembered what happened last time. In his memory, putting food and champion Hou are the same thing.
"Let it go, not a grain of rice is left." Champion Hou said with a smile.
"Oh, that's good. If you are short of food, you can ask me for it." King Ying said seriously.
The hopeful Lu Congxin, who was beside the champion, didn’t follow. The four of them chatted in the hall for a while, and the father and son of Yin invited the guests into the back house, for which he kept apologizing, “The distinguished guest is coming, and my father is in poor health. Not being able to meet in person is really disrespectful…”
There were fewer and fewer servants following behind. After a few doors, only the son of the Yin family was left to lead the way for the four royal descendants. The laughter and laughter disappeared, and the family atmosphere disappeared. The King of England did not know why. Wang, thought that the environment in the prime minister's mansion was not good.
A woman who was probably a concubine opened the door, and King Ying was the first to enter without hesitation. Han Ruzi and Champion Hou were polite, but Champion Hou walked in front, and King Donghai was last, with a smile on his face. , If in the past, he would never accept this arrangement, but now he can only endure it.
Prime Minister Yin Wuxian had already put on his court clothes, and with the support of the two maids, he gave a big salute slightly tremblingly, and apologized for his rudeness.
It was another long chat and courtesies, Han Ruzi had to admit that this sudden attack was a complete failure, Yin Wuxian still stood still, and the advantage of the champion was not diminished.
King Ying began to yawn. The prime minister was not only old and boring, but the room was filled with the suffocating smell of medicine. He didn't like it at all, so he frequently looked at King Donghai, hoping that he could take him away.
When the lantern was on, the family of Yin and several concubines stepped back, and Prime Minister Yin Wuxian sat on the soft couch and gave a "class" to the four visitors.
"I'm old, I've already been overwhelmed, and I only have one thought in my heart. I hope that I can see the stability of the country and the prosperity of the country, and then I can return to India and return to my hometown. After enjoying a few years of family happiness, I went to see Emperor Wu and Emperor Huan, bowed their heads and pleaded guilty to them, saying, 'The sin is incompetent.
Yin Wuharm let out a long sigh and burst into tears, "I know, there are rumors all over the world and everything is said, as if I can steal the sky and change the sun, but I am only the prime minister of Great Chu. The position of prime minister is like a lake, a river When the sky rises, it will be diverted, and the river will continue to flow. The prime minister does not have it, and only shares the worries of the emperor. Occasionally, he takes over a heavy task, but he is also trembling and walking on thin ice. When the time comes, he will return the heavy task immediately. For a prime minister, this is Highest honor."
Unable to bear it any longer, King Ying yawned and said to King Donghai, "Let's go, he is about to die."
Yin harmless laughed, and then coughed twice, "I am boring, His Royal Highness Haihan."
Han Ruzi was not reconciled, but there was no other way, so he got up to leave, and asked the prime minister to recuperate in peace.
King Ying was looking forward to this sentence, and he took the King of the East Sea and walked out, followed by Han Ruzi and the champion Hou.
"Wanhou really knows how to use people." Champion Hou said with a smile after going out.
"King of England? He found it himself."
"No, I'm talking about Yang Feng. I didn't expect him to leave so many tricks for Hou Juan. It seems that I am incompetent. Yang Feng was unwilling to make the best use of everything with me from the beginning."
Han Ruzi smiled. Yang Feng was not so loyal. In fact, he decided to assist the Hou Juan again after comparing. If he could be reused by the Hou of Champion, this ambitious eunuch would never choose the weak.
Champion Hou didn't think so, he felt that everything was already doomed, and Yang Feng had never been sincere to himself.
The King of Ying and the King of Donghai had already run out of the gate, and the Yin family followed far behind and did not dare to approach, the champion could not forget Yang Feng, and said, "In any case, the descendants of the Han family cannot kill each other, and the Marquis Tien can make a move. As long as it doesn't violate the rules, I can accept it. In the future, I will make you king. You seem to be good at fighting, so I will make you king in the northern border and stop the Huns for Chu. Named eunuch, please tell Yang Feng, Marquis Juan, that there is no place in the world for those with two hearts."
Han Ruzi smiled and said: "The champion is bad, and I just said that Yang Feng left all his tricks and tricks to me, which shows that Yang Feng is loyal and dedicated to assisting me, so why is the saying of 'two hearts'?"
The champion's face turned cold, Han Ruzi walked away, sighing in his heart, the champion is easy to deal with, but the minister is the trouble. They would rather assist the mediocre champion than re-establish the deposed emperor. The better the deposed emperor is, the more fearful the minister is. the heavier.
It's not enough to win over Xiao Sheng, Han Ruzi must show more magnanimity, to show that after the abolition of the emperor, he will never take any revenge measures. The key is how to convince the ministers that Han Ruzi decided to have a good talk with Yang Feng tonight.
There was a small disturbance outside the gate. King Ying jumped on his horse, under the protection of Du Chuanyun, rushed out of the crowd and galloped away. Several people ran behind, begging King Ying to stop, and hurriedly searched for a horse, mounted it, and chased after him. reluctant.
The King of the East Sea said with a smile, "Yuan Zifan just arrived." Then he lowered his voice, "He really is that..."
Among the shouting voices on the street, one belonged to Yuan Zifan, and it was indeed a little more shrill than the others.
Han Ruzi's heart moved, but he didn't say anything. He mounted the horse with the King of the East Sea and said goodbye to the Yin family. After walking out of the alley, Han Ruzi said to the King of the East China Sea, "Is it possible that Yuan Zifan is not a hopeful person at all?"
"Huh? What do you mean?"
"Following the trend, this is the most common tactic for those who look for qi. There may only be very few people who are really looking for qi. Others, such as Yuan Zifan and Lu Congxin, have special status, so they are drawn over, and then only To gain the title of hopeful..."
"I see, what you said makes sense... Yuan Zifan and Lu Congxin are obviously not eloquent, but Lin Kunshan is slightly better..."
A series of screams suddenly came from the front.
Soon after nightfall, there were still many pedestrians on the street, and the screams quickly spread, and pedestrians rushed to the place where the accident happened.
Han Ruzi and the East Sea King rode their horses fast, and the East Sea King whipped out a passage.
In the middle of the street, a horse fell to the ground with two people under it.
Yuan Zifan and a few servants arrived first, and they were standing beside them, all of them dumbfounded. Yuan Zifan turned to look at Marquis Lian and the King of Donghai, and suddenly said, "This is what you guys have done!"
The two people who were pinned down by the horse were motionless. Someone brought a lantern to light up the street. Everyone saw that blood was slowly flowing out from under the two of them, mixing with the melting snow.
