170 Meeting in Yellow Springs

West residence, Wanjin Hall.

In order to come to meet the saint, Cheng Huang deliberately dyed a black and white hair. He was not old and useless, but also had a stern identity.

It is common nowadays. It is seen in history that the first person to dye his hair is Wang Mang. Wang Mang, who was nearly 70 years old (68 years old) in the late Han Dynasty, appointed his lady Shi as the queen. At that time, he had "white hair and white beards". In order to conceal his old age, he deliberately dyed his hair and beards black. "Book of Han: Biography of Wang Mang" said that "If you want to look at yourself outside, you dye your beards and hair."

Nowadays, hair dye paste is mostly made of black beans. Soak the black beans in oxalis for one to two days, heat and cook them until they are cooked, filter out the bean dregs, and then boil them into a paste. When used, you can apply them directly on the hair. Later, it is called "soybean fried".

Later, there were lotus seed hair dyes. "Lotus seed grass" is also known as "wash lotus platform" and "wash lotus grass", etc. The stems and stems are full of black juice. It is the most convenient natural hair dye. In the Tang Dynasty, it was very popular to use it for dyeing hair. "Waitai Se Yao" listed several lotus seed grass hair prescriptions, including "lotus seed grass paste". "Preparing for the Qianjin" and "Qianjin Yi Fang" also record several hair dye prescriptions. For example, "Staining black plums from raw oil, often used to apply hair"; "Staining black mulberry water to make the hair black"; "washing salt soup with raw sesame oil and pampas ash" and so on, are all in one go.

Of course, it is also possible to dye black with ink. There are more realistic and free "hair extensions". Cut off the black hair and connect it to the white hair. Comb into a bun, so that it can be fake and real.

"Old Slave, come to your Majesty." Cheng Huangri walked into the hall and threw himself into the ground. His movements were like flowing clouds and water, and he was done in one go. His behavior was perfect and he could easily retract and relax. As expected, he became old and stronger.

Even if you never get tired of watching this set of great gifts, your Majesty, who has become an expert, also praised him.

"Sir, please get up and give me a seat."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

"I know that the Empress Dowager ordered the old master to be the Changle Young Mansion, and I have a lot of doubts in my heart. I will see you today, and it will be unresolved."

Since Empress Lu of the Han Dynasty ruled the dynasty, it was the precedent for the tyranny of foreign relatives in the Han Dynasty. His life was included in the imperial edict by the Grand Historian. Later, Empress Deng of the Han Dynasty "promoted and destroyed the country and succeeded the peerless", imitating Empress Lu's ruled the dynasty for sixteen years.

Therefore, the Empress Dowager issued an edict to appoint officials, which became a practice between the Han Dynasty.

Even Empress Dowager Yongle, who had previously recruited his nephew Zhang Zhong as the Sili Captain.

The Changle Shaofu is one of the three queens of the empress dowager. It is reasonable for Empress Dowager Dou to personally recruit the palace officials. Even if it is Your Majesty, there is no blame.

"Although the old slave is about to be buried, he can still be used by the master. He can serve the empress dowager for several years, so it is considered useful for him." Cheng Huang replied lying.

"I can feel at ease if there is an old master serving the Queen Mother." His Majesty asked with a smile: "Will you have something to ask for when you go here?"

"Report to Your Majesty, there is something to ask for." Cheng Huang replied, "But he is not an old slave, but an empress dowager."

"Oh?" His Majesty was a little surprised: "What do you want for the Queen Mother?"

Cheng Huang replied, "Empress Dowager Dou is the Empress Dowager of the Han Dynasty, and his majesty's legitimate mother. Because he was implicated by General Dou, he was imprisoned by Wang Fu, Hou Lan and others for many years. In the past, Duke Zhuang of Zheng was angry because his mother Jiang and his brother Wang Shu Duan rebelled, and he moved his mother out of the royal city and vowed, "Not even to the Huangquan, there is no meeting with each other!" After saying that, Duke Zhuang of Zheng regretted himself. The doctor Ying Kaoshu said, "Digging the ground and the spring, and then meeting with each other." So Duke Zhuang of Zhuang "Digging the ground and seeing the mother" and the mother and son were able to "Digging the yellowquan".

Your Majesty and the Empress Dowager have no 'great hatred for treason' or 'hate of disobedience'. How could you sit down and see your mother as a treacherous and unseen for ten years?"

After hearing the ten regular attendants in the hall, they were sweating like raindrops. Even the Yellow Gate reminded Zuo Feng, he was also frightened.

Although our dynasty takes filial piety first, the present is different from the past.

The story of Duke Zhuang of Zheng is a close relative of his family.

Your Majesty is not the biological daughter of Empress Dowager Dou. Now that Empress Dowager Dong in the harem has gained power, it is reasonable and reasonable to judge others by herself. How can she sit down and watch Empress Dowager Dou rise again?

He knew he could not do it. Lord Cheng was really old and could not distinguish the general trend in the palace. This move was a way to die!

Unexpectedly, after hearing this, Your Majesty felt lost.

Tears were faintly seen in his eyes: "The old man said it is reasonable. I did not investigate for a while, neglected my mother and became a son."

After hearing this, the ten regular attendants, led by Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong, were as if they were struck by lightning.

Why is this the case with Your Majesty?

After saying a word, Cheng Huang, who was prostrated, breathed a sigh of relief.

Every question and answer, and a few breaths, it is like a dilemma of life and death. If Your Majesty is furious, he will die. However, if Your Majesty accepts his words and treats his mother well. Ten years of wealth and honor are at your fingertips.

Now it seems that Your Majesty has the intention to abolish the elders and establish the young people!

Cheng Huang was very calm and his spirit was refreshed: "Your Majesty is in full swing in the spring and autumn, and the Empress Dowager is healthy. It is not too late to make up for the sheep."

"What should I do?" His Majesty asked with a kind look on his face.

Cheng Huang replied, "I vaguely remember. On the first day of the October 1st of the fourth year of Jianning, Your Majesty led all the ministers to celebrate the birthday of the empress dowager. This filial piety is talked about by the world. It is only a few months since the birth date of the empress dowager. Why not move the empress dowager out of Yuntai, properly place him, and then lead the ministers to wish the empress dowager a long life."

His Majesty nodded frequently and asked again: "In the opinion of the elders, where should the Empress Dowager be moved?"

"Yong'an Palace." Cheng Huang peeked at His Majesty's face, and then said carefully: "Yong'an and Yongle are very compatible. This shows that Your Majesty's legitimate mother and her biological mother do all good deeds."

"The old man is indeed mature and steadfast." His Majesty said happily: "Transfer to my oral order to repair the Yong'an Palace immediately and move to the palace before the Queen Mother's birthday. I will lead all civil and military officials to celebrate the Queen Mother's birthday."

"I will accept the order." After seeing the left and right, he saw that no one responded. The yellow gate ordered Zuo Feng to accept the order.

"Your Majesty is wise." Cheng Huang burst into tears and prostrated himself.

The Shi Changshi and others, who had been as stupid as a rooster, hurriedly knelt down and agreed.

Looking at Cheng Huang, Changle Shaofu, he walked out vigorously. Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong, his body was filled with coldness.

If we were to guess the saint's will, the two of us would take the initiative. Who else could be the best of me? Otherwise, Your Majesty would not say: Zhang Changshi is A Father, and Zhao Changshi is A Mother.

It just corresponds to the saying that there is no better way to know your son than your parents.

However, in terms of overall situation, the two of them were not as good as the match, and they were far behind the older generation of eunuchs.

When they thought of this, the two looked at each other from the air and sighed secretly.

The Huangmen Order Zuo Feng dared not be negligent. He sent His Majesty the oral order to Bi Lan of the Yeting Order.

Bi Lan was skeptical. After asking Zhang Rang, Zhao Zhong and others, he believed it was true.

"What does your majesty mean?" Bi Lan asked.

Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong, how can you still not know at this time!

"Your Majesty treats your legitimate mother well, so that you can establish a legitimate son." Zhang Rang replied.

"The two princes are both concubines, so where are the legitimate sons?" Bi Lan asked again.

"If there is no legitimate son, then a noble son will be established." Zhao Zhong hit the nail on the head.

"Your Majesty wants to abolish the elder and establish the young man!" Bi Lan suddenly realized.

"Although there is no conclusion, it has this intention." Zhang Rang replied.

"No wonder Empress Dowager Dong would let it go." Zhao Zhong had figured out everything: "The two empress dowagers may have formed a secret alliance to deal with He Hou's family. Perhaps, the old man has informed His Majesty of the Saint's words in advance!"

"If this is the case, how should we do it?" Bi Lan asked what was worried about.
