readx;? Old Mr. Bai looked at Lin Xi's mouth shape and was immediately shocked, "Why is the emperor here?"

Saying that, he quickly put down the hoe, pulled Lin Xi out of the vegetable field, and was about to kneel down and salute, but Emperor Xia Jing had already stepped forward to support him, "Master Bai, please get up, you are my master, why do you need such a big gift, but I don't want to go." Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Mr. Bai didn't have to kneel when the emperor helped him up, but Lin Xi still had to obediently land on his knees and throw himself to the ground, but he still had a handful of vegetable seeds in his hand, and before he could plant them, he could only sprinkle them all on the ground.

What is this called?

"Flatten. ”

Emperor Xia Jing said indifferently, "What are you doing here?"

The green cloth was short, the shoes were covered with a thick layer of mud, and the hoe was still lying on the vegetable field.

"The old man has nothing to do, learn from the old farmer to plant vegetables in the field, and after a few days, you can harvest two crops of greens and taste fresh. ”

Emperor Xia Jing suddenly smiled bitterly, swept the people around him who were eager to lower their heads to the ground, and shook his head, "How old are you, you can't afford to toss." ”

Holding Mr. Bai's hand, which was no longer young and smooth, Xia Jingdi couldn't help but take a closer look at the teacher he hadn't seen for many years.

Back then, the posture of the pine and cypress was bent like an old man, the black hair in the memory was covered with snow and frost, and the tung oil hairpin was already thinning white hair, and the deep ravine was covered with the graceful and elegant face, time was lost, and the handsome and elegant celebrity who made people fall in love is now just a peaceful and happy old man.

However, when the eyes met, I had to be glad that the wise eyes were still the same as before.

"Master Bai, I haven't seen you for many years, so I miss it very much, I still remember that when I ascended the throne, I asked you to accompany you in the palace many times, but you refused to see me, which really made me helpless. ”

Mr. Bai suddenly laughed loudly: "The emperor's dragon power has appeared, there are many capable ministers in the court, and the old man is the same as if he is not there, and he is impatient to stand on shifts all day long and ask the emperor to atone for his sins." Old Mr. Bai looked at the emperor's face, "The emperor came here today, do you have something important?"

Emperor Xia Jing looked around and didn't say much.

At this time, I only heard Lin Xi speak, "Your Majesty, the student has ordered someone to prepare tea in the snow house, the scenery there is better, it is a place to talk, it is better to move to rest for a while, and ask the teacher to change his clothes and come to accompany him." ”

Emperor Xia Jing raised his eyes and looked at Lin Xi when he heard this, this was just a faint glance, and it was also quite scrutinizing, Lin Xi lowered his face quietly, waiting for the order.

Four years ago, he was just in a hurry, and he must have forgotten about Emperor Xia Jing.

"It's fine. ”

Lin Xi smiled slightly, bent sideways and held his hand, "Then please ask the emperor to come with the students." ”

When Mr. Bai changed into a long shirt and Confucian clothes and went to Xuelu, Emperor Xia Jing had already been admitted to the school to become an official, and he looked sideways at Lin Xi who seemed to be quite interested.

And Lin Xi sat upright on top of Yuanpu, put his hands on his knees, and said slowly in a soft voice, "The student thinks that being an official is not by saying a few words of a saint and shouting a few words to benefit the people, but by relying on a heart full of enthusiasm and kindness. The emperor set up hundreds of officials, each performing his own duties, and the officials had all kinds of things, including the affairs of crops and the peasants, the law of reason, and the Dali of the Criminal Department, the cost of water conservancy, the Ministry of Engineering, the Ministry of Finance, the Ministry of Finance, and the Ministry of Household Affairs, the Ministry of Etiquette, the Ministry of Rites, and the Ministry of Soldiers, and the Ministry of Soldiers...... There are few all-rounders, each has its own strengths, and it is beneficial to the people in the world, if you have an eye of insight, you are not afraid of power, and you will be in the history!"

"If there is anything inappropriate about the student's fallacy, please atone for the emperor's sins. After Lin Xi thanked him, he got up and helped Mr. Bai into the snow house, picked up the boiling teapot on the stove, added a cup to each of them, and then retreated.

Lin Xi walked back calmly, passed by a handsome sweeper, and said lightly, "Go and inform him." ”

As soon as Lin Xi left, Emperor Xia Jing frowned and thought for a moment, and then said with a smile: "This little guy is interesting, he is not very old, he has a calm temperament, but he is clear about the official position of Great Xia, where did Master Bai find it?"

Speaking of Lin Xi, Mr. Bai's face was kind, "I occasionally went to a restaurant and met it, at that time Xi'er was younger, sitting next to a bunch of candidates rushing to the spring festival, looking at it coldly, the old man sat on the ground, and cheekily fought a table with him, but I remembered it." Later, Rubai recommended him to study in the Bai Family Academy, and the old man saw that he was still a seedling and accepted it and stayed by his side. ”

"The name of the master is famous all over the world, how many talented people Chengmen Lixue want to worship you as a teacher, but you don't agree, why do you suddenly have this intention?"

At the beginning, Emperor Xia Jing didn't think about asking Mr. Bai to teach the princes, but unfortunately this old man was unwilling, but now he said that he would accept apprentices, and he didn't take him seriously before.

Mr. Bai sighed with emotion: "People only know when they are old, and someone has to be able to send them to the end." ”

Emperor Xia Jing didn't have much to say here, but in a blink of an eye, he thought of the official changes in the official department of Shangshu, and then considered that the master in front of him was almost seventy, which was really incomprehensible, and he suddenly said angrily: "I looked at Shen Bowen's excerpt, I didn't please your old man before, this is good, this time you went out of the mountain by yourself." ”

Old Mr. Bai was confident, "The old man is just such a little apprentice, he is still young, and if he wants to enter the officialdom in the future, he will always have to plan for him." ”

"Is it famous now?"

"I just took the Xiucai exam last year, and I am preparing for the township exam next year, if it is smooth, I will be able to participate in the spring festival the year after tomorrow, and I will ask the emperor to take care of it at that time. ”

This is what a big word that can be said with confidence, when the emperor takes care of it, it has to be a palace test, the show is easy to test, it is difficult to lift people, the world is full of talents, and Jinshi is like a thousand people passing alone, looking at Lin Xi's age of not being as old as a weak crown......

Emperor Xia Jing didn't intend to say anything about attacking Old Mr. Bai, so he had to nod his head and agree, "Since I am a disciple of Master Bai, I am also considered to be in the same sect as me, so I should take care of it." ”

Mr. Bai immediately took a reassuring pill, and the apprentice he taught with his own hands naturally had this confidence, "Thank you, Your Majesty." ”

The tea in the furnace was boiling, steaming a little hot, and the two drank tea to watch the scenery.

Emperor Xia Jing stroked the rim of the cup and pondered.

I heard Mr. Bai say: "The old man is in the neighborhood, and I heard rumors in the market that Hu Nu intends to marry Daxia, and he will send the princess to Beijing in the spring. ”

Emperor Xia Jing said humbly when he heard this: "There is such a thing, it is the bloody work of the border generals." ”

"Then congratulations to the emperor, the matter of sealing Zen has been done by the old decrepit instinct, and now it seems to be the trend of the times, and it is a gift to comply. ”

This made Emperor Xia Jingdi happy and said with a smile: "If others say it, I may feel that I am suspected of being a horse, and it comes from Master Bai's words, I will be at peace." ”

Old Mr. Bai bowed slightly, and then heard Emperor Xia Jingdi hesitate slightly: "There is one thing, I have been undecided, and I hope that the master will show you the way." ”

"I can't say it, if the old man knows it, he must know everything, but the emperor says it. ”

Emperor Xia Jing said: "The marriage is not fake, and it is true to return to Dada, but Princess Hunu specified that she would marry Prince Rui, and she was even willing to accompany 100,000 horses, 100,000 cattle and sheep, otherwise the marriage would be abandoned, and it would be okay if it was someone else, Prince Ke Rui...... I really don't give up, but I don't want to give up on 100,000 horses. ”

Mr. Bai knew that at this time, when he saw Emperor Xia Jingdi's hesitant posture, he couldn't help but be disappointed again.

He asked: "Dare to ask the emperor, Prince Rui won in Great Xia, defeated Hunu, and killed countless Hunu warriors, as the princess of Hunu, why didn't he marry?"

Emperor Xia Jing smiled bitterly, "How could I not know that Hu Nu thought that the victory of Great Xia was only in Zhao Jingyi, and no one was in their eyes. If the princess marries, they think that I will not let Jingyi return to the north, and I will be suspicious of him, which is ridiculous, I ......"

Mr. Bai didn't wait for Emperor Xia Jing to finish speaking, and then asked, "Will the emperor be suspicious if he asks himself?"

Emperor Xia Jing wrung his eyebrows and looked at Mr. Bai, and said coldly: "Master Bai doesn't believe that I trust him, that's my own nephew, my Dinghai Divine Needle!"

Mr. Bai Lao picked up the teapot that was tumbling inside, poured it into the teacup in front of Emperor Xia Jingdi, and then rested it on the coffee table, raised his hand and made a word of invitation.

Emperor Xia Jing looked at it, and finally raised his hand to hold the teacup close to his mouth and took a sip, and then heard Mr. Bai say: "Your Majesty, Hu Nu is a Yang conspiracy, they are gambling, betting on Prince Rui's weight in your mind, whether it is 100,000 horses, 100,000 cattle and sheep, or even a princess, as long as they can make the monarch suspicious, they are willing to pay this price, as you said, they are only afraid of Prince Rui." ”

"As soon as the princess enters the Rui Palace, even if His Royal Highness the Prince snubs her, as long as she is the princess, she can walk with the harem on behalf of the Rui Palace, make friends with the powerful, and even accept the New Year's gifts sent by Hu Nu from time to time, and even return the gift. You believe it for a while, but you can't believe it, the words of a few people, ambiguous beliefs, no matter how careful Prince Rui is, he can't dispel his suspicions, when he loses his military power and is trapped in Beijing, he is like a tiger that has lost its claws and is no longer a threat after all, and then ...... Does the emperor have a candidate to deal with? In the future, one of the kings of Shu and Liang will be able to have the courage of the emperor at the beginning?"

Emperor Xia Jing didn't speak, his face was gloomy, and the hand in front of his knee was slowly clenched.

"I don't believe that except for Zhao Jingyi, there are no good generals in the DPRK!"

Hearing this, Mr. Bai lowered his head and hid the sadness in his eyes.

"Geniuses are hard to come by, and good generals can be cultivated. The emperor's luck is to meet Rui Wang Ping in the northwest, and ten years of training of good generals is not enough. ”

Ten years, Emperor Xia Jing has several decades, how can the future King of Liang and King Shu be able to govern King Rui.

Old Mr. Bai didn't understand Emperor Xia Jingdi's worries, but those two princes really disappointed him.

He settled down, retracted his hand into his sleeve robe, and suddenly sighed: "Although it is said that the outside must first be settled, but in other words, there is no external enemy to intrude, and it will be more comfortable to settle down in the interior, so the emperor might as well think about it in a different way." ”

Emperor Xia Jing was puzzled, "Master Bai, please speak." ”

Mr. Bai said: "The Great Khan of Hunu is much older than the emperor, and I heard that he has been lacking in energy recently, and he has shown a tired appearance, and it is just around the corner. It's just that there is only one position of the Great Khan, but there are three princes, and Dada, the eldest prince who was once born by the Great Khan's concubine, is one of the strong contenders and the one who is expected to return, but unfortunately he was imprisoned in Great Xia as a prisoner. The birth of the third slave girl was insignificant, and now only the second prince, Samur, is the most likely. Not surprisingly, he is the next Khan, but why should he agree to change back to Dada?"

"I don't care if Dada doesn't go back, but ......" Emperor Xia Jing didn't finish speaking, and then saw Mr. Bai shaking his head, "No, he will definitely take Dada back." ”

Emperor Xia Jingdi suddenly narrowed his eyes.

"There are two reasons, one is that although Dada has no soldiers and no power now, he is the concubine of the Great Khan after all, and his prestige still exists for many years, and he is even more loved by the Khan, as long as the Khan does not die, he still has a chance to turn defeat into victory......; I am afraid that Daxia will secretly support Dada! As long as he can bring it back, Dada will be alone, and his life will be out of his own hands. ”

Emperor Xia Jing's slightly narrowed eyes suddenly opened, and a gleam appeared in his eyes, and the emperor's calm mind immediately calculated another way out.

He looked at Mr. Bai's obscure expression, and suddenly his heart brightened, his face was happy, and he slapped a few cases and said: "I, why do you want to let these barbarians disturb the balance between the DPRK and China, why don't you take the first step and let them fall into chaos, Dada has no soldiers and no power, just right, Daxia gave it to him! Samul is brutal and atrocious, but I don't believe that the Hunu people are all interested in him! A battle between the khan and the king, the brothers are fighting each other, and they can ensure the stability of Daxia for at least five years! How can a mere 100,000 scolding cattle and sheep be compared!"

"Okay, okay, Master Bai, I'm here to leave the palace this time. Emperor Xia Jing got up as he spoke, and said with emotion, "Master Bai's talent, it is too aggrieved for a mere prince to oversee wine, if you are willing, the ministers of the cabinet will reserve a seat for you." ”

Old Mr. Bai also got up slowly, bowed to Emperor Xia Jing and said: "It is the blessing of the old man to be able to share the worries of the emperor, but the old man is old, but he really doesn't have the energy to work, if it weren't for my disciple, the prince of the country wouldn't want to go." If the emperor has a heart, Xi'er will be ...... in the future."

Emperor Xia Jing waved his hand without waiting for him to finish, "This still needs you to say, my junior brother I will pay attention to it." ”

Now they have become brothers......

When Lin Xi came back, it happened that the old gentleman and Emperor Xia Jing came out of the snow house, and at this time, Emperor Xia Jingdi's gaze at Lin Xi was very kind and pleasing to the eye.

"Study hard, and I will be waiting for you in the Golden Palace in two years. ”

Lin Xi looked sideways at the teacher, and Mr. Bai nodded at him, so he saluted respectfully: "Obey the emperor's orders." ”
