Xu Boyi said: „, This general......” 徐伯夷道:“啊,这位将军……” That person shows a faint smile, said: „Vulgar surnamed Xiong, Xiong Wei, is one of the Palace of Heavenly Purity is on night duty the bodyguard, when can not the name of general.” 那人微微一笑,道:“鄙姓熊,熊伟,乃是乾清宫的一个值宿侍卫官,当不得将军之称。” This person said is very polite, Xu Boyi may not have to take seriously. Because of this guy general, is special group in brocade clothes health/guard, their top stature is the emperor's relatives and hero descendant, even a soldier letting out background big. 这人说的很客气,徐伯夷可没当真。因为这大汉将军,是锦衣卫中的一个特殊群体,他们个顶个儿的都是皇亲国戚、功臣后裔,就算一个小兵放出去来头都大的很。 As for the commanding officer of this guy general, must meet a basic hardware requirement: He must have Duke, marquis, uncle and other title, or is the superintendent of the reserve horses and other emperor's relatives of the status. 至于这大汉将军的统领官,更得具备一个基本的硬件条件:他本人必须有公、侯、伯等爵位,又或者是驸马都尉等皇亲国戚的身份。 Xu Boyi is not familiar with this General bear, but he was clear, this General bear at least is also a Count, or is what relative who the imperial family seven turns eight to circle. Therefore Xu Boyi respectful designation his general, said as before: „General bear, but also please open the imperial city gate, me must go out.” 徐伯夷对这位熊将军不熟悉,但他清楚,这位熊将军最起码也是一个伯爵,又或者是皇家七拐八绕的什么亲戚。所以徐伯夷依旧敬称他将军,道:“熊将军,还请打开宫门,咱家要出去一趟。” As soon as Xiong Wei listens, troubled said/tunnel: „Aiya, father-in-law odd/surplus, this imperial city gate cages, but cannot open casually.” 熊伟一听,面带难色地道:“哎呀,余公公,这宫门一上了锁,可就不能随便开了。” Xu Boyi patted the racket to hang in waist the number and route plate of difference imperial grounds, said: „The number and route plate of my having discrepancies imperial grounds!” 徐伯夷拍了拍挂在腰间的出入宫禁的腰牌,道:“咱家有出入宫禁的腰牌！” Xiong Wei being radiant with smiles said/tunnel: „Father-in-law, 9 to 11 p.m. arrives, the imperial grounds lock. No matter what number and route plate used!” 熊伟笑容可掬地道:“公公,亥时一到,宫禁落锁。什么腰牌都不管用了！” Xu Boyi said: „Am me the emperor person, what the general have to be good to be worried?” 徐伯夷道:“咱家可是皇上身边的人,将军有什么好担心的？” Xiong Wei hits haha saying: „In the past big court eunuch Cao Jixiang was also the emperor person, finally was also not......, haha, cracked a joke, cracks a joke, father-in-law odd/surplus should not be offended, the imperial grounds locked, refuse the difference, this was the custom of royal government, Xiong does not dare to offend. That is must fall the head.” 熊伟打个哈哈道:“当年大太监曹吉祥也是皇上身边的人,结果还不是……,哈哈,开个玩笑,开个玩笑,余公公不要见怪,宫禁落锁,严禁出入,这是朝廷的规矩,熊某可不敢冒犯。那是要掉脑袋的。” Xu Boyi one hear was anxious, he considers everything, has not calculated this point only. Actually was calculates, he will not be serious this beforehand, in his opinion. Hugely big, the emperor is biggest, an emperor sound command, even if looks like the official in Guizhou province that remote area to dare to comply in public but oppose in private taking advantage of the convenience of central government powerless in local, at least the Son of Heaven under foot no one dares to defy. 徐伯夷一听就急了,他千算万算,唯独没有算到这一点。其实就是算到了,他事先也不会把这当回事,在他看来。天大地大,皇帝最大,皇帝一声号令,就算像贵州那种偏远地方的官员借着天高皇帝远的便利敢阳奉阴违,至少天子脚下没有人敢违拗。 But before him, does not have to have the palace in the evening, this rare matter. Usually no one discussed that how could he know so many customs. Xu Boyi urgently said: „Number and route plate no matter also uses? Me have anxiously serve the imperial mandate to leave the palace, couldn't this imperial city gate go out?” 可他以前没有晚上出过宫,这种百年不遇的事。平时都没人议论,他哪知道会有这么多的规矩。徐伯夷急道:“腰牌也不管用吗？咱家有急事奉圣谕出宫,难道这宫门就出不去了？” As soon as Xiong Wei listens is presents the imperial mandate to leave the palace, pours does not dare to neglect, then the direction said: „Father-in-law, if really has the important matter urgently. Actually is not cannot leave the palace, but......” 熊伟一听是奉圣谕出宫,倒也不敢怠慢,便指点道:“公公若真有十万火急的大事。其实也不是不可以出宫,只不过……” In Xu Boyi heart a happy, busy say/way: „What's wrong?” 徐伯夷心中一喜,忙道:“不过怎样？” Xiong Wei dao: „Father-in-law you must invite under the emperor together the written order, writes a night to open the copy clerk of imperial city gate again, gives the cabinet the duty minister to make written comments, so long as the cabinet, Xiong can open the door.” 熊伟道:“公公您得请皇上下一道手令,再写一份夜开宫门的文书,交给内阁当值大臣批示,只要内阁准了,熊某就可以开门了。” Xu Boyi one hear must under the emperor the written order, look reluctant. Asking: „General bear, me leave the palace present the Saint messenger sir faction, if goes back to invite the Saint high and low aim. Perhaps stirs up in the Saint disgruntled, can't stretch the rules?” 徐伯夷一听还得皇上下手令,不禁面有难色。问道:“熊将军,咱家出宫确是奉圣上差派,如果回去请圣上下旨。恐怕惹得圣上不悦,难道就不能通融一下吗？” Xiong Wei shakes the head again and again, said with deep veneration: „Not being applicable, in the palace the custom is stern, Xiong how many heads? Does not dare to offend the custom!” 熊伟连连摇头,肃然道:“使不得,宫中规矩森严,熊某几个脑袋？绝不敢冒犯规矩的！” Xu Boyi tried every means to persuade, Xiong Wei is not willing to stretch the rules. Xu Boyi has no alternative, has to rotate Palace of Heavenly Purity bitterly. 徐伯夷好说歹说,熊伟就是不肯通融。徐伯夷无可奈何,只好恨恨地回转乾清宫。 Wan Li Emperor thinks that his long-awaited beautiful woman can succeed in obtaining tonight. Unable to contain one's joy, had no interest in review the memorial to the throne. But long night extending endlessly, really has nothing to do, must seek Tang legend story-telling script, is relying on the back cushion, lies down kills the time on the arhat cot. 万历皇帝想到他朝思暮想的美人儿今夜就能到手。喜不自禁,也无心批阅奏章了。可长夜漫漫,又实在无事可做,只得寻了部唐传奇话本儿,倚着靠枕,躺在罗汉榻上消磨时光。 Wanli is looking at Tang knight-errant story, a court eunuch entered your letter report: „The emperor, father-in-law odd/surplus came back.” 万历正看唐游侠故事,一个太监进来禀报:“皇上,余公公回来了。” „Such rapidness?” The Wanli great happiness, said hastily: „Quickly! Passes on him to come in quickly!” “如此之快？”万历大喜,连忙道:“快！快传他进来！” Moment, in Xu Boyi enters, Wanli said joyfully: „little white, you comes back how such rapidness, has young lady Yingying been waiting in the antecourt?” 须臾,徐伯夷入内,万历欣欣然道:“小白,你回来的怎么如此之快,莹莹姑娘已经在前殿候着了？” To come in Wanli, Xu Boyi goes to return so amazingly quick, perhaps is Xia Yingying waits for a long time mother not to turn over, before the palace sought, met Xu Boyi exactly, naturally took to bring in immediately. 在万历想来,徐伯夷去而复返如此神速,没准是夏莹莹久候母亲不归,到宫前寻找来了,恰好遇到徐伯夷,自然马上就带进来了。 The Xu Boyi forced smile said: „When the emperor, the servants leaves, in the palace has fallen the lock, the servants could not go out, the imperial city gate place guard general said, being probable the emperor under you imperial decree is together good.” 徐伯夷苦笑道:“皇上,奴婢离开时,宫中已经落了锁,奴婢出不去呀,宫门处侍卫将军说,须得皇上您下一道手谕才行。” Wanli one hear did not know whether to laugh or cry, quickly told that the person arranged the words paper inkstone, wrote down together the imperial decree, capped own small bell, handed over with Xu Boyi. 万历一听不禁啼笑皆非,急忙吩咐人备好笔墨纸砚,写下一道手谕,加盖了自己的小钤,递与徐伯夷。 Xu Boyi for fear that Wan Li Emperor shuts out him not to handle matters agily, does not dare saying that also so many customs, said by as far as possible brief truncation, took the imperial decree of Wanli, immediately said: „Servants this walks, at high speed, hurries certainly back as soon as possible!” 徐伯夷生怕万历皇帝嫌弃他办事不利索,没敢说还有那么多的规矩,是以尽量简短截说,拿了万历的手谕,马上道:“奴婢这就走,快马加鞭,一定尽快赶回来！” Xu Boyi was saying hastily leaves Palace of Heavenly Purity, the spinning cabinet duty place. 徐伯夷说着匆匆离开乾清宫,急奔内阁当值处。 In the palace that is a huge quarter, Xu Boyi whirls, is anxious and tired, had been sweating profusely to the cabinet duty place, here duty official understands the complete set custom actually, although holds the matter of imperial city gate at night he is also first meets. 宫廷里那是何等庞大的一处所在,徐伯夷一路急行,又急又累,到了内阁当值处已然满头大汗,这里的当值官员倒是懂得全套规矩,虽然夜间开宫门的事儿他也是头一回遇到。 Official hurried turns looks, proliferates inside one pile of turning yellow paper that to turn out one to print the good paper from the dust, this is an application opens the application of imperial city gate at night, above displayed in detail the time of opening the imperial city gate, when opens the reason of imperial city gate, to open the authorized person of imperial city gate, altogether to open several doors, to leave, when come back wait/etc....... 那官员急急忙忙一阵翻找,从灰尘遍布的一堆发黄的纸张里边翻出一张印刷好的纸来,这是一份申请夜间开宫门的申请,上边详细罗列了开宫门的时间、开宫门的理由、开宫门的批准人、一共要开几道门、几时离开、几时回来等等…… Xu Boyi receives looked, only thinks big such as fights, he read the poetry book fortunately full, was wise, filled in this east and west to be a cinch, immediately has snatched the pen, selected the point to delimit a stroke of beautiful calligraphy, before long should the filling in place fill in him. 徐伯夷接过来一看,只觉头大如斗,亏得他饱读诗书,满腹学问,填这个东西不在话下,当下抢过笔来,点点划划笔走龙蛇,不一会儿就把他该填的地方都填完了。 That duty official meets to look, praised: „Good calligraphy!” 那当值官员接过去一看,赞道:“好书法！” Xu Boyi is impatient, is not good extremely to urge, but is accompanying hollow laugh two, that duty official scrutinizes carefully, the nod said: „Good! Without the issue, the father-in-law please wait a bit, this officer this delivers with official scholars scrutinizes.” 徐伯夷心急如火,又不好太过催促,只是陪着干笑两声,那当值官员仔细审阅一遍,点头道:“好！没问题,公公请稍等,本官这就送与余大学士审阅。” Xu Boyi nearly bit own tongue, startled say/way: „Also wants official scholars to scrutinize?” 徐伯夷差点儿咬了自己的舌头,惊道:“还要余大学士审阅？” That duty official looked at his one eyes strangely, said: „This grade of important matter, naturally wants the official scholar to scrutinize, where this officer dares to take responsibility.” 那当值官员奇怪地看了他一眼,道:“这等大事,自然要大学士审阅,本官哪敢做主。” Xu Boyi compensates to say with a smile: „to become Chengcheng, well good, has Sir Lao quickly, me worry, worry!” 徐伯夷赔笑道:“成成成,好好好,有劳大人快一点,咱家着急,着急呀！” Xu Boyi was saying the sweat that scratched the forehead, moistens one's lips with the tongue, only the sleep/felt has a parched mouth. That duty official sharply, does not enter another palace sluggishly, calling that to serve the small palace gate in hall to call official scholars to get out of bed. 徐伯夷说着擦了把额头的汗水,舔舔嘴唇,只觉口干舌燥。那当值官员可不急,慢腾腾地走进另一间殿堂,叫那侍候在堂上的小黄门去唤余大学士起床。 The person who tonight is on duty is the Ministry of (Confucian) Rites Shangshu and Wenyuange official scholar has Ding, Sir odd/surplus was old. Is on night duty actually guards has what urgent issue by some chance to need to process, although ten years eight years do not see the urgent matter that needs to process at the same night, but this system cannot abandon. 今夜当值的人是礼部尚书兼文渊阁大学士余有丁,余大人年岁不小了。值夜其实就是防着有个什么万一的紧急事务需要处理,虽然十年八年不见一件需要连夜处理的急事,但这种制度不可废。 Therefore Sir odd/surplus on the arhat cot in the pavilion takes a nap in the evening, calls the small palace gate period of five days under the hall, once really has the urgent matter. Calling him gets up is. The odd/surplus official scholar was awakened by that small palace gate, surprised said/tunnel: „Can have the urgent matter?” 所以余大人晚上就在阁中罗汉榻上小睡,叫小黄门儿候在堂下,一旦真有急事。唤他起来便是。余大学士被那小黄门儿唤醒,惊讶地道:“可有急事？” That small palace gate to him said that has the duty official to seek an interview, official scholars do not dare to neglect, quickly gets out of bed to rush to the fore room, that duty lesser official hurries forward to pay a visit, a matter saying. Gives official scholars the request form that the imperial decree and Xu Boyi of emperor fill in again. 那小黄门儿对他说有当值官员求见,余大学士不敢怠慢,急忙起床赶到前堂,那当值小官趋前拜见,把事情一说。再把皇上的手谕和徐伯夷填好的申请表递给余大学士。 The odd/surplus official scholar frowns looks: „odd/surplus Xiaobai leaving the palace business, but allows to pass!” 余大学士蹙眉一看:“余小白出宫公干,可予放行！” The odd/surplus official scholar strokes the beard to think, said: „Calls him to come in!” 余大学士捋着胡须想了想,道:“唤他进来！” The moment time, Xu Boyi comes in anxiously anxiously, official scholar say/way: „The imperial decree of emperor. This officer has looked, does the father-in-law leave the palace to have He to do?” 片刻功夫,徐伯夷急急进来,余大学士道:“皇上的手谕。本官已经看过了,公公出宫有何公干啊？” Xu Boyi hesitated, replied: „Frankly, now informs assigns/life the madame to stay overnight Consort Chen Tai to locate, contracts the grave illness suddenly, the emperor is summoning the court physician to diagnose. The emperors assign/life me to leave the palace to take her close female family members to come, if there is any mishap, is good her family member to accompany about.” 徐伯夷迟疑了一下,答道:“实不相瞒,今有一位诰命夫人留宿陈太妃处,突患重疾,皇上正召御医诊治。皇上命咱家出宫接她一位至亲女眷前来,万一有什么不测,也好有她的家人陪在左右。” odd/surplus has a Ding white eyebrows porch.

Old men useless, but also wants several other people also to agree. This starts the order of imperial city gate to be effective!” 余大学士呵呵一笑,道:“不急,不急,此事老夫一人可做不得主。老夫准了没有用,还要其他几人也都同意。这开启宫门的命令才能奏效！” Xu Boyi was anxious the hot best room, may have no alternative. Only can smile bitterly saying: „Which Sir several people does that...... also need to agree to become?” 徐伯夷急得都火上房了,可也无可奈何。只能苦笑道:“那……还需要哪几位大人同意才成啊？” The odd/surplus official scholar is pulling the finger, sluggish said/tunnel: „brocade clothes protects the director alone this solitary one boat. He manages the guy general and powder to ride the shed person and mansion army vanguard ; Wujunying Director Cui fragrant gives, he runs Wujunying fork blade enclosure ; 3000 battalions of director yellow Rui, he run 3000 battalions of red helmet generals and bright armor generals......” 余大学士扳着手指,慢吞吞地道:“锦衣卫指挥独孤舫。他管大汉将军、散骑舍人以及府军前卫;五军营指挥崔馨予,他掌管五军营叉刀围子手;三千营指挥黄睿,他掌管三千营的红盔将军、明甲将军……” Xu Boyi hears almost to have tears streaming down the face, although his tears have not fallen, but the sound has sobbed: „That is invited the old master, is quicker invites them!” 徐伯夷听得几乎要泪流满面,他的泪虽未落下来,可声音却已哽咽了:“那就有请老大人,快些把他们请来吧！” Quick that three director Sirs come! 三位指挥大人来的很快！ In view of the fact that imperial palace Imperial Palace big and three director Sirs of area defer to the custom, is doing an inspection everywhere, their three people catch up one after another, altogether used a double-hour, was really quick. 鉴于皇宫大内的面积之大、三位指挥大人又依照规矩,正在逐处巡查,他们三人陆续赶来,一共才用了一个时辰,真的是非常之快了。 For example that Director yellow Ruihuang, he is responsible for the 40 police boxes between Miyag city wall and Tongzi River, each police box to the hundred zhang (333 m), has the armed soldier ten people respectively, the yellow director must do an inspection, to sign on the doing an inspection book one by one , to continue to do an inspection again the next police box, can actually rush in half double-hour, was really very amazingly quick. 比如说那位黄睿黄指挥,他负责宫城城墙和筒子河之间的四十个警亭,每个警亭相距百丈,各有甲士十人,黄指挥要逐一巡查、在巡查簿子上签字,再继续巡查下一个警亭,却能在半个时辰内赶到,真的是非常神速了。 „I agreed!” “我同意！” „I agreed!” “我同意！” „I agreed!” “我同意！” Three director Sirs the objection, the imperial decrees and official scholars under emperor have not nodded slightly, why do they want to oppose? 三位指挥大人没有丝毫异议,皇上下的手谕、余大学士也点了头,他们为什么要反对？ Used more than double-hour all assembled three directors to cause, only used the time of half tea to listen to the statement and statement agreement of Xu Boyi, and in opening that request form of imperial city gate signed own given name seriously. 用了一个多时辰才汇齐的三位指挥使,只用了半盏茶的功夫就听完徐伯夷的陈述、表态同意,并在开启宫门的那张申请表上郑重地签上了自己的大名。 The Xu Boyi perspiration passes the heavy clothes, he wiped the forehead sweat, has snatched that form, causes to say to the official scholars and three directors submissively: „Has the work official scholars and three Sirs, my walked, many thanks, many thanks!” 徐伯夷汗透重衣,他擦了把额头汗水,一把抢过那张表格,对大学士和三位指挥使拱手道:“有劳大学士和三位大人,咱家这就走了,多谢、多谢！” The alone this solitary one boat clear and resonant voice asked: „Where does father-in-law odd/surplus go?” 独孤舫朗声问道:“余公公哪里去？” Xu Boyi does not return to snatch anxiously anxiously, said: „Leaves the palace!” 徐伯夷头也不回地急急抢出,道:“出宫啊！” Wujunying Director Cui fragrant said: „Father-in-law odd/surplus, your was the palace!” 五军营指挥崔馨予道:“余公公,你这样是出不了宫的！” A Xu Boyi foot just took the threshold, hears word stumbles, nearly falls a somersault, he staggers two steps to halt, turns round startled to ask: „Why can't have the palace?” 徐伯夷一脚刚刚迈出门槛,闻言脚下一绊,差点儿跌个跟头,他踉跄两步站住,回身惊问道:“为何出不了宫？” The odd/surplus official scholar twists the beard to reply easely: „This also needs the emperor to review to stamp can be effective!” 余大学士捻着胡须悠然答道:“这还需要皇帝陛下批阅加印才能奏效啊！” Xu Boyi said startled: „Hadn't the emperor gotten down the imperial decree?” 徐伯夷愕然道:“皇上不是已经下了手谕啊？” odd/surplus official scholar sincere say/way: „The imperial decree of emperor was not the official copy clerk, the old man saw the imperial decree of emperor, therefore is willing to stamp the authorization, but this formal instrument who opened the imperial city gate, but also wanted the emperor to cap the official copy to become effective.” 余大学士正色道:“皇上的手谕不是正式的文书,老夫见了皇帝的手谕,所以才肯加印批准,但这份开启宫门的正式文书,还要皇帝陛下加盖正式的印鉴才能生效。” Xu Boyi looks at official scholars dumbfoundedly, looked at the long time, determined that this official scholar is not really joking with him. 徐伯夷目瞪口呆地看着余大学士,看了半晌,才确定这位大学士真的不是在跟他开玩笑。 ...... …… Wan Li Emperor glanced over story-telling script, had a yawn, closed the eye slowly, nearby young court eunuch looked, hurries to take bed thin Qin, builds to him gently on the body, Wanli was waked by the slight sound, opens the awake song sleepy eyes saying: „What double-hour?” 万历皇帝把一本话本儿浏览了一遍,打了个哈欠,缓缓闭上了眼睛,旁边的小太监一看,赶紧取过一床薄衾,轻轻给他搭在身上,万历被轻微的动静弄醒了,睁开惺忪的睡眼道:“什么时辰了？” At this time, Xu Boyi slid near the gate to flash, Wanli also thinks that was the vertigo, fixed the eyes on looks, was really he, sat up joyfully, asks: „little white, you comes back! young lady Yingying?” 这时候,徐伯夷溜着门边儿闪了进来,万历还以为是自己眼花了,定睛一看,果然是他,不禁欣然坐起,问道:“小白,你回来啦！莹莹姑娘呢？” Xu Boyi shakes to rustling holds up a paper, the stutter said/tunnel: „Sovereign...... emperor, but also invited the emperor's capping front part seal in this official documents, the servants...... the servants can leave the palace......” 徐伯夷抖抖瑟瑟地举起一张纸,结结巴巴地道:“皇……皇上,还请皇上在这份公文上加盖衿印,奴婢……奴婢才能出宫……” : Asked the monthly ticket and recommendation ticket honestly!. :诚求月票、推荐票！.
