Chapter 1180 didn’t disappoint me
“Hey, my two good brothers, what time has it been? Have you two decided who will go in to report? This is Urgent battle report for eight hundred miles, Mr. Ge specially ordered "Yes, we can't delay it for a moment. If it delays the military and national affairs, the three of us will not be able to afford it."
The little eunuch holding the memorial saw that the two gatekeepers could not decide who should go in. Tongzhen, couldn't help but urged anxiously.
It’s nothing to walk around if you can’t eat. As soon as we enter, it’s very likely that there will be no one left.
The two eunuchs guarding the gate had a wry smile on their faces. We really want to make a decision quickly, but our lives are at stake. Can we make a quick decision? !
"Can you do it? How about I go in and report it myself?" The little eunuch holding the memorial was almost crying.
When the two gatekeepers heard this, their eyes suddenly lit up, as if a bonfire had been lit, but it quickly extinguished. The rules and regulations in the palace are strict, so how can the job of being an expert be replaced at will?
"Otherwise, it's better to follow the old rules." A gatekeeper eunuch suggested.
"Okay." The other gatekeeper nodded.
"Twelve taels." The first gatekeeper stretched out a finger and whispered first.
"Twenty taels." Another eunuch guarding the gate extended his two fingers without hesitation and said.
"Thirty taels." The first gatekeeper gritted his teeth, stretched out three fingers, and then shouted up.
“Forty taels.” The other eunuch guarding the gate hesitated, then gritted his teeth and added another ten taels of silver.
"Fifty taels!" The first gatekeeper gritted his teeth.
The other eunuch guarding the gate smiled bitterly and shook his head. In the end, he was defeated and did not increase the price.
This is an old rule among the eunuchs who guard the gates. If they encounter this kind of situation where no one wants to go in to report, they will use taels of silver to bid. Each bid must not be less than ten taels of silver. Those who dare not shout up will You have to take the job, and the other person who calls out the price has to hand over the silver to the person who took the job.
This rule is "love your money as much as your life".
"I'll just go in and report. Xiao Shunzi, if I can't come back, you have to send the promised money and the trustee in my room back to my home. The key to my cabinet, Just leave it under my pillow." The defeated eunuch said to the first eunuch before going in to report.
"Don't worry, Xiao Dezi, Xiao Liuzi is watching. I will definitely not break my promise." The first gatekeeper nodded vigorously.
The wind is rustling and the water is cold.
Xiao Dezi took the memorial and stepped into Yongshou Gate. His back looked like Jing Ke stabbing Qin on the bank of Yishui River.
After Xiao Dezi walked into Yongshou Palace, he saw fragments of tea cups on the ground, an overturned incense table, a palace of fellow eunuchs and maids who were as trembling as quails, and Emperor Jiajing, the center of the storm.
Hearing the palace door opening and the sound of footsteps, Emperor Jiajing, who was at the center of the storm, looked up and saw the little eunuch coming in.
The storm instantly enveloped Xiao Dezi.
In an instant, Xiao Dezi's legs went weak, and he fell to his knees with a thud. Cold sweat poured down his back, and a thought came to his mind: My life is over!
"Long live Lord, I really deserve death. I have disturbed Lord Long live Qing Xiu. However, the cabinet has forwarded an eight-hundred-mile expedited report on the Japanese war in Taizhou Prefecture, and asked Lord Long live to read it. I dare not delay the important military and national affairs." . ”
Fortunately, Xiao Dezi did not forget the business at the critical moment. He knelt on the ground and raised the memorial above his head with both hands.
"Report on the Taizhou Japanese Poison War!"
When Emperor Jiajing heard the report on the Taizhou Japanese Poison War, his original bad mood reached a new level of badness again.
Damn Japanese pirates!
A hundred years ago, scabies became more and more severe, and now it has become a serious problem, becoming the disease of seppuku in my Ming Dynasty!
"A mere small country dares to expose my Ming Dynasty dragon scales time and time again! You are really bullying me too much!"
Emperor Jiajing was furious, his face full of sullen anger, as if he was biting someone.
The temperature in the entire Yongshou Palace instantly reached subzero, and all the eunuchs and maids in the palace were shivering.
The young eunuch Xiao Shunzi, who was still on duty at the gate of Yongshou Palace, faintly heard the angry voice of Emperor Jiajing inside the palace, and couldn't help but secretly rejoice. Fortunately, he was willing to spend a lot of money just now, otherwise he would be the unlucky one now. . But now, alas, there is no way, this is fate, Xiao Shunzi, please wish yourself well.
"Send it up."
Emperor Jiajing looked gloomy and said coldly, troubled.
Huang Jin, who had been waiting in front of Emperor Jiajing, heard this and came down, took the memorial from Xiao Dezi, bowed and presented it to Emperor Jiajing with both hands.
Emperor Jiajing took the memorial with a gloomy face and began to read it expressionlessly.
Emperor Jiajing opened the first page and saw that the Japanese pirates Jiangmen, Tiejingang, Honda Heihachi and others led more than 10,000 Japanese pirates and sailed more than 700 ships. They landed in Taizhou Prefecture and plundered Taizhou. Prefecture, the troops divided into three groups to attack the seven counties under the jurisdiction of Taizhou Prefecture, killing residents, burning farm buildings, and combined forces to attack the city of Taizhou Prefecture.
After reading this, Emperor Jiajing couldn't help but became furious, and kicked several cases over again, "What a courageous dog!"
"The slave is guilty."
There was a crowd in the palace. The eunuchs and maids knelt down one after another, trembling.
Xiao Shunzi, who was guarding the palace gate, was furious when he heard Emperor Jiajing's words. He couldn't help but feel grateful for his decision and for being willing to spend a lot of money just now. He silently mourned for Xiao Dezi in his heart.
After Emperor Jiajing became furious, he continued to read the memorial.
"Huh?"
Looking at it, Emperor Jiajing couldn't help but let out a confused "Huh" sound.
The trembling eunuchs and palace ladies who were kneeling on the ground pressed their heads closer to the ground after hearing Emperor Jiajing's "hmm". What's going on? Could it be that the Japanese invasion is more serious than imagined? !
"Zhu Pingan?!"
The voice of Emperor Jiajing sounded above the heads of the trembling eunuchs and maids who were kneeling on the ground.
Zhu Pingan? !
Huang Jin's eyes twitched when he heard Zhu Pingan's name. Yes, Zhu Pingan was demoted to the county magistrate of Jingnan. This Jingnan seems to be in Taizhou Prefecture. Taizhou Prefecture was attacked by Japanese pirates, so Jingnan County was not spared either.
Alas! What a pity.
Huang Jin couldn't help but sigh in his heart. In fact, Zhu Ping'an is quite good-looking, but alas.
"Haha."
Suddenly, everyone who was kneeling and trembling heard Emperor Jiajing's laughter.
Laughter? !
How serious is the Japanese epidemic in Taizhou Prefecture? The Holy Emperor was so angry that he laughed
Everyone who knelt down and trembled thought so. Huang Jin couldn't help but feel sorry for Zhu in his heart. Ping An sighed.
"I'm not disappointed." Emperor Jiajing's voice sounded over everyone's heads again.
What?
Zhu Ping'an, haha, you didn't disappoint me!
Kneeling on the ground, Huang Jin connected the words of Emperor Jiajing in his mind. He couldn't help but open his eyes wide and glanced at Emperor Jiajing secretly. Unbelievably, he found that there was something on Emperor Jiajing's face. The smile was not the kind of smile that comes out of anger, but a real smile. (End of this chapter)
