The sky was dark, and a comet pierced the sky and crashed between the mountains.

In an instant, the mountains and rivers moved, the spirits in the forests and fields roared, the river fish came out of the water, the insects and rats crossed the street, and the black wind blew the sand.

From the ruins, a strange figure walked out, with horns on his head, his hands clenched, thunder and lightning surrounded, mountains and rivers changing color, and the woods and the world distorted.

"Ahh

Bianliang, inside the Imperial City. On the dragon couch, the old man woke up, sweating profusely, I don't know what nightmare I had, and I can't recall the slightest fragment.

"It's a dream."

His wrinkled hands were like withered claws, touching left and right under the quilt, and finally caught the familiar soft and delicate body, the touch transmitted back to his hands was as cool as jade, and the old man's arms forcefully hugged her into his arms, clinging to his sweaty body.

"Your Majesty, are you having nightmares again?" Wu Guifei was sleepy-eyed and snuggled into his arms and asked.

"yes. But I can't remember. ”

Wu Guifei was a little hurt when she was caught by him, but she didn't dare to say anything, she just comforted her softly.

Staring at the top of the couch in the dark, the old emperor didn't know what he was silently muttering, he was older, and he fell asleep again after a while.

Early the next morning, Chen Shou went to the military department to report.

"Captain Yilu?"

The little officer of the military department originally held his chin and was listless, but he quickly stood up when he heard the name.

Captain Yilu is either rich or expensive.

The person in front of him, no matter how you look at it, looks like a second ancestor, the little white face is so standard, it is difficult for a big family to have this kind of child.

Chen Shou smiled: "Exactly." ”

The little official was a little hesitant, "Listening to your accent, it doesn't look like a person from Kaifeng Mansion." ”

Almost all of the lieutenants of Yilu are the sons and nephews of the nobles in Beijing, and they will go to the forbidden army to do an errand in the future, and there will be no outsiders in their spare time.

Chen Shou nodded, and replied honestly: "It's a Xiliang person in Xia. ”

The little official's face suddenly looked good, and he couldn't tell what the look was, Xiliang was a little desolate in the eyes of the people of Kaifeng Mansion, and it belonged to the border area.

But nine out of ten people know the phrase "Xiliang Malaysia, sweeping the world".

The people of Kaifeng Mansion generally have such a mentality, they look down on the Xiliang people, and think they are barbaric and rude, but they also know that their peace and tranquility are fought by the Xiliang soldiers.

"Could it be that the nobleman's surname is Li?"

Chen Shou waved his hand and said: "I am not a descendant of the General's Mansion, but I was favored by the General's Mansion and used their quota." ”

General Zhengxi was also the general who founded the country that year, and his outstanding military exploits were not given to others. The General's Mansion has always had this quota, but it has never been used, because they guard Xiliang and don't need to mix qualifications here to enter the forbidden army. Most of the children of the Li family died on the battlefield, which also shows how cruel the war in Xiliang was.

"Since it was recommended by the Zhengxi General's Mansion, please come with me and go to see our Luo Shilang on duty."

As soon as he came, he could see the squire of the military department, which was beyond Chen Shou's expectations, how did he know that Xiliang had very little communication with the imperial court for a long time. Xiliang's affairs are no trivial matter, especially when they rarely sent a lieutenant Yilu.

The little official led the way in front, and there were guards standing in the courtyards along the way, Chen Shou couldn't help but secretly speak, it was worthy of the military department yamen of the capital, and the garrison was really strict. In fact, there is no need, no one has anything to do, and they don't dare to come to the military department to make trouble.

When I arrived at a secluded courtyard, I looked out of the window and saw several people dressed in scarlet official mansions chatting inside.

The little official straightened his clothes outside, and said through the door: "Your Excellency, there is Chen Shou, the captain of Yilu recommended by the Western Liang Zhengxi General's Mansion, who came to report to the military department. ”

There was a light sigh from inside, and someone said, "Let him in." ”

Chen Shou listened to this voice very elegant and gentle, and he thought that it should be the so-called Liu Shilang of the military department.

The little official pushed open the door and made a gesture to invite in, and after Chen Shou entered, he did not follow, but closed the door and waited outside.

The rules of the capital are really big...

Chen Shou secretly slandered.

Entering the room, there were three officials, all of whom looked at them curiously.

"The last general, Chen Shou, has seen all the officials." Chen Shou bowed slightly and hugged his fists.

"Hurry up, please take a seat, come on, serve tea to Captain Chen."

Is Lao Tzu so handy? Chen Shou was flattered, how did he know that this was to give Xiliang face.

After all, the Ministry of War is responsible for the dispatch of grain and grass, and it has not been given to Xiliang at all over the years, so it is natural to double the compensation in terms of face.

"When will the last one take office?"

"There's no hurry, there's no hurry, there's no shortage of manpower right now."

When Chen Shou heard this, this group of old oilmen didn't want to talk about it, but he came with a mission, he chuckled: "If that's the case, the future of Beijing will be a little abrupt, and you can go back and explain the situation to the general." ”

...

The atmosphere was a little embarrassing for a while, not that although it was a group of people who didn't do anything, they definitely didn't want to anger Xiliang because of themselves.

Everyone knows that some time ago, the imperial court did a very unkind thing, if it wasn't for the Xiliang people to raise grain, it almost ruined a big thing, and conspired to send people to take Liangzhou City.

It is self-evident whether Li Wei is angry or not, if he finally pours a spoonful of oil and ignites Xiliang, he will definitely die.

Liu Shilang hurriedly stood up and said with a smile: "You are quite anxious, Captain Yilu is in charge of the palace guards, which is not trivial." I'll send someone to check where there are any vacancies. ”

He waved his hand lightly, and the official next to him flipped through the roster on the table, and after half a quarter of an hour, he muttered: "Wang Zhong of the East Palace entered the forbidden army a few days ago, but there is a vacancy. ”

Liu Shilang smiled: "Are you willing to go to the East Palace?" ”

I am so willing, Chen Shou didn't expect that there would be such a good thing, wouldn't it be much more comfortable to go to the East Palace by himself and have the crown princess take care of him.

He immediately clenched his fists and said, "In that case, the last general will go to report." ”

"Hey... You are a guest from afar, and you will have lunch at the military headquarters before leaving. ”

Chen Shou rolled his eyes, pretended to look outside, and pretended to hesitate: "It's not too early, and the last general has to go to Beisi for a trip, so I won't bother." ”

"Oh? Captain Chen and the father-in-law of Beisi also have a relationship? ”

"I can't talk about friendship, it's a bit of a relationship, and it's not appropriate not to go." Chen Shou said to himself.

The officials of the military department looked at each other, sent him out of the door, and instructed the officials to send him out of the military department and not to slack off.

Out of the military department, Chen Shou had an extra official document to go to the East Palace in his arms, and he breathed a long sigh of relief.

The capital is really difficult to mix, the relationships are intricate, and the power network is intertwined, so I have to hurry up and sort it out.

He was frowning, and someone suddenly knocked on his shoulder, and when he turned around, he saw that last night's little white face was wearing a scribe's robe, standing behind him with a smile.

"Can't you just say hello?"

Chen Shou is a little fried, every time this kid is elusive, he is really a little infiltrating.

"Where's the arrangement?"

"East Palace."

The little white face nodded and said, "That's how it should be." ”

Chen Shou instantly understood, "Then Wang Zhong has been transferred away in the past few days, didn't you do it?" ”

"Shhhh Let's go, I invite you to go to the Drunken Immortal Building to have a drink, and I will pick you up and wash the dust. ”

As soon as Chen Shou heard this name, he had the urge to go, and immediately took a step and said with a smile as he walked: "How embarrassing is this, I will definitely invite you next time." ”

"You're going the other way, this way."
