The Famous Detective of the Red Mansions

Chapter 24 Mediocre

Sun’s Mansion is not far from the palace, but the ministers who were summoned privately by the emperor could only enter and exit from Donghua Gate.

So he had to follow the summoning eunuch, passing through the door three times like a fool, all the way from the northwest corner of the inner city to the east of the imperial city.

Perhaps seeing that Sun Shaozong was too burly and majestic, the imperial army guarding Donghua Gate specially brought him to the penthouse. After searching an inch by inch, he was almost able to pull out the murder weapon in his crotch to measure the length.

finally passed the ‘security check’, and after summoning the eunuchs to go around in the aisle of the palace wall, he saw that the front was suddenly enlightened, and a magnificent hall appeared.

Sun Shaozong knew that he had arrived at the place, and was about to cheer up and deal with it, but he heard a noise on the left side of the hall door:

“Oh my god! What’s wrong with this broken car, why is it just at the door of Wenying Hall?!”

“What should I do, what should I do?! This is the Begum rice that just paid tribute. If it is scattered, we big guys won’t survive!”

Following the prestige, I saw a flat carriage full of rice turning over not far to the left. Two eunuchs were jumping up and down around the carriage, yelling.

What a flamboyant acting!

Sun Shaozong only glanced at it twice, and he came to the above conclusion.

The hill of rice bales on the carriage seemed to have half of the wheel broken in two. At first glance, it did seem like an accident caused by overwhelming weight.

But how harsh are Sun Shaozong’s eyes?

just swept it casually, and found several flaws.

First of all, the wheel looks neatly broken, and there is no trace of bending. It is clear that it was removed first, and then cut with a sharp tool.

Secondly, the rice on the car had a rollover accident. It was neat and tidy, and there was not a slight slant. If it was tied very tightly, it would be just a few small strings, if it was really abruptly bearing the strength. , I’m afraid it would have been scattered all over the place early.

Of course, the most obvious flaw is the lines of the two little eunuchs-now it is the cold winter, it is impossible to produce new rice at all, and in this world, how can there be fools who dare to pay tribute to the emperor’s old rice?

Therefore, only the words’Bigongmi who just paid tribute’ is enough to prove that this is a well-designed farce.

As for the purpose of their performance…

alas

Sun Shaozong sighed helplessly, the actor who acted in the play was so bad, he really didn’t want to be the protagonist!

It’s a pity that the person who compiled this bad scene was the emperor, and he couldn’t tolerate him backing down on the spot—if he offended the director, at most some scenes were cut; if he offended the emperor, it was life that was cut.

“These little boys!”

summoned the **** to complain in a pretense manner, then turned his head and confessed to Sun Shaozong: “Waiting outside, let’s go in and go in for you.”

“I have a father-in-law.”

Sun Shaozong hurriedly bowed and saluted.

When going out, it was cheap and gothic to explain that these eunuchs have the best face, regardless of what they think, at least the superficial etiquette is indispensable.

Of course, in addition to this, Sun Shaozu also took him to explain a lot of what he had. In summary, it was nothing more than eight words, ‘think more and say less, hide clumsy and show fear’.

‘Think more and say less’ is easy to understand. As for the four words ‘hiding clumsy and revealing timidity’, it means trying to hide one’s shortcomings in front of the emperor without being too shrewd.

but said that the summoning **** had just entered the gate of Wenying Hall, and the third extra actor… well, it was the third **** who made his debut.

I saw him holding a wooden wheel in his arms, jogging all the way and shouting: “Come, here, the wheel is here!”

Seeing that this boy is skinny like Ma Gen, but there is not a trace of sweat on his face, I know that Ya must have been hiding behind the palace wall, waiting for the right opportunity to appear.

“Great!”

The two little eunuchs by the carriage first cheered together, and then murmured in embarrassment: “But there are so many things on the car, how can we put the wheels on?”

The reason why I put quotation marks on the word ‘mumbling’ is because these two guys are talking too loudly, and fools can see that they deliberately told Sun Shaozong.

I listened to Eunuch A’s suggestion: “Or, first unload the rice from the car?”

“You die!”

The second **** took an orchid finger and poked a few times on the chest of the eunuch, and said, “If we spill tribute rice, don’t we all have to lose our heads?!”

The **** Ding promptly suggested: “Why don’t we find a few eldest guards to help support the car and put on the wheels.”

As soon as the voice fell, the three of them couldn’t wait to cast their eyes on Sun Shaozong.

This acting…

is so bad, is it? !

Sun Shaozong looked at him and panicked for them. Compared with these three, he could be regarded as the word ‘professional’.

At this moment, the three eunuchs have already greeted together: “My lord, this lord, can you help us?”

If this play was not directed by the emperor, Sun Shaozong would definitely hide his face and leave!

Now……

He can only come to the’center of the stage’ step by step in the eyes of the three little eunuchs’expecting’.

Seeing him approaching, the **** A immediately chanted his lines happily: “Sir, let’s try it first, if it doesn’t work, then go find other…”

Unexpectedly, before the **** A could finish reading his lines, he saw Sun Shaozong grabbing the wheel with his hand, reaching out to buckle the bottom of the car, and with one arm, he helped the overturned carriage and lifted the wheel again. The card slot aligns with the axle and slaps it in.

“All right.”

gently put the carriage that weighed a thousand catties back on the ground, and Sun Shaozong waved his hand in a sparse manner: “No thanks, goodbye.”

The three eunuchs watched him back to the door of Wenying Hall in a daze. They were stunned for a long time, only to remember that there was another line of “General Mighty” and forgot to say.

Not to mention how many alpacas are running in the hearts of the three little eunuchs.

Not long after Sun Shaozong returned to the door of the Wenying Hall, he saw the summoned **** coming out from inside, flicking the dust, and said in a shrill voice: “Your Majesty has a purpose, Sun Shaozong, the captain of the Xuanlong Guard, enter the temple! ”

Sun Shaozong hurriedly suppressed his disapproval, bowed his waist, and respectfully followed the **** into the hall.

summoned the **** and knew that he had not been trained in the Ministry of Rites, so he entered the gate of the hall and led him a few steps forward, and then whispered: “Hurry up and see the Lord Long live.”

said, he arched his hand to the front: “Your Majesty, Sun Shaozong has brought it here.”

Sun Shaozong didn’t have time to see what the emperor looked like, so he hurriedly fell to his knees, saying Long live: “The last general Sun Shaozong, see Long live!”

After a while, I heard someone faintly replied: “Be flat.”

Taking advantage of the effort to get up, Sun Shaozong secretly squinted his eyes, but saw that there was a half-hundred old man sitting behind the bright yellow desk-the Emperor Taishang retired at the age of seventy, so it was already when Emperor Guangde took the throne. Forty-three years old, and now nine years have passed, naturally it is over half a hundred years old.

Emperor Guangde has been on the throne for nine years. Although due to the existence of the Supreme Emperor, he could not fully control the political situation, but this long-standing presence is also very comparable, especially a pair of slender eyes half-opened. Together, it makes it harder to guess what he thinks.

But Sun Shaozong cared more than Emperor Guangde, but not far from him, the middle-aged minister staring straight at him.

Who is this again?

“Sun Shaozong.”

Sun Shaozong was guessing the identity of the minister, so he listened to Emperor Guangde casually asking: “I heard that you just helped the eunuchs and picked up a carriage full of tribute?”

This is really called ‘ask you knowingly’!

Sun Shaozong slandered while slandering, but on the other hand, he quickly and honestly told the story of his talent.

Emperor Guangde didn’t comment, but turned to the minister and asked, “What does Uncle Yong think?”

“Back to your majesty!”

The courageous uncle bowed and said categorically: “The minister thought that this person should be dismissed and investigated and never hired!”

Dismissal investigation? Never hire? !

When Sun Shaozong heard this, he was a little dumbfounded-I didn’t say anything yet, so why did you dismiss him first?

listened to the uncle Yong Yi explained: “Even such a simple setting can not be seen through, which shows that it is a mediocre generation-Qianxiang embassy mixed with spies, which caused the imperial envoy to be assassinated and died, all because of his incompetence!”

After a pause, he continued: “As for half a day chasing fierce clouds, it is really an anecdote. I think it is not because of his luck or the intention of the messenger behind the scenes. It is really not a basis for it! Therefore, the minister thought that it was like this. It is better to dismiss the mediocre people and leave them useless.”

I’m going!

After hearing this, Sun Shaozong was really speechless.

He kindly cooperated with the emperor in acting, but he didn’t follow the routine, and he was dumbfounded by the title of “Mediocre”!
