Bai Nian stayed in the Tingwei Mansion, because his mentality was better, and his illness was getting better quickly, and after two days, he looked no different from ordinary people, but he had no interest in doing things, and he sat at the window in a daze all day long.

Han Zhaozhi came back to the Tingwei Mansion to see him after finishing the affairs of the welcome building, and as soon as he entered the small courtyard, he saw Bai Nian sitting there like a wooden man at the window, so he frowned slightly.

"Do you know where you lost?"

Han Zhaozhi walked to the window and asked, Bai Nian actually found out that Han Zhaozhi had arrived, obviously seeing someone coming in, but it didn't affect him in a daze at all, he saw it when he saw it, and he didn't even feel in a trance.

"Huh?"

"I've heard that your goal in the Water Master is to catch up with Shen Leng."

Han Zhaozhi didn't enter the house, so he said in a flat tone outside the window: "He won't sit here in a daze like you, he doesn't have so much time to be in a daze." ”

"Has he experienced something as tragic as mine?"

"Perhaps, what he experienced is worse than what you have experienced, at least you spent the first twenty years in the family, and he is an orphan, until now he doesn't know who his parents are, and when he was still in infancy, he was left in the snow on the side of the road on a snowy night, if he wasn't picked up, he couldn't survive a stick of incense and he could freeze to death, and the person who picked him up didn't treat him as a person at all, he started to work as a coolie at the age of six or seven, and when he was a teenager, he carried a big bag to run to the dock, and he started practicing at the age of twelve."

Han Zhaozhi said so much in one breath: "When do you think he is as depressed as you are now?" ”

Bai Nian's face changed: "He ......"

"You come with me."

Han Zhaozhi spoke, turned around and walked out, Bai Nian didn't know where Han Zhaozhi was going to take him, so he mechanically followed him out of the door, got into Han Zhaozhi's carriage and walked for a while, only to find that it was actually the forbidden army camp when he stopped.

Han Zhaozhi entered the door with Bai Nian, he was naturally no stranger to this forbidden army camp and school field, after all, he was often here when the armies were in the big competition.

Han Zhaozhi stretched out his hand and pointed forward, Bai Nian followed his instructions and looked over, and saw the sweaty guy on the school field, carrying a stone grinder that weighed a hundred pounds, running in circles around the school field.

"Don't be arrogant when you go against the times, and don't be discouraged when you go against the times."

Han Zhaozhi said slowly: "If you have his status today, leading an army from the Admiral of the Sanpin Water Division, Mrs. is the goddaughter of the noble concubine in the palace, and the friends around you are all dignitaries, will you get up early in the morning and run to the forbidden military academy like him, and then train without stopping all morning?" ”

In the distance, Shen Leng was still grinding the stone on the ground, and he faintly heard the dull sound of the heavy object falling to the ground in the distance.

Then the guy moved his arms a few times and walked slowly a few times, drew his knife and began to practice chopping, a very irritating single action, just chopping, slashing, slashing, and I don't know how he can keep his heart unopposed.

"I ......"

Bai Nian opened his mouth: "He does this every day?" ”

"Every day."

"I thought that when he was in the army, he would be like this, and he would eventually relax when he returned home."

"So you're never as good as him, even if you start catching up now, you can't catch up, excellent people work harder than you, what do you think your chances of winning?"

Bai Nian hung his head: "So why work hard?" ”

"If you don't work hard, you won't even be able to see his back."

Han Zhaozhi turned around: "There is also a school field in the Tingwei Mansion, when you are willing to practice and go to it, when you feel irritated and want to do something, go to me, I have nothing for you to do before the year or even within a month after the year, you can also continue to nest in the room and pretend to be dead, I raise you, just because you are useful, and you are useful not because of your own value, but because you are related to some measures of the Tingwei Mansion in the future, that's all." ”

Han Zhaozhi got into the carriage, and Bai Nian followed behind Han Zhaozhi in silence: "Can I go back to the water division in the future?" ”

"It depends on who you think you are."

"Huh?"

"If you think you are a waste, don't say that the sailor doesn't need you, the van soldiers don't need you, if you haven't forgotten that you are the Wupin general of Daning, and you are the future pillar of the imperial court who Your Majesty also wrote down your name, whether it is in the sailor or anywhere else, the future is promising."

"I want to do things right now."

Bai Nian took a deep breath and slowly spit out: "I know a lot of secrets of the descendants, those businesses in Jiangnan Province, although the Bai family has been wiped out, but many businesses were brought forward by the Bai family at the beginning, and I know a lot in the open and in the dark. ”

Han Zhaozhi smiled at the corner of his mouth: "Then what do you need?" ”

"Give me a hundred."

"Nope."

"Fifty."

"Nope."

"Twenty!"

"Okay."

Han Zhaozhi nodded: "Give you twenty people, I don't want you to take my people to kill people, the Tingwei Mansion does not do anything that violates the law and discipline, and the people in the Tingwei Mansion only investigate the things that violate the law and discipline." ”

"I understand!"

Bai Nian raised his chin: "I can't catch up with him, and I don't want to see his back." ”

An hour later, Weiyang Palace.

The temperature in the East Warm Pavilion makes people drowsy, especially in the afternoon, His Majesty rested for a while and then returned to the desk to deal with government affairs, Li Chengtang not only has the natural wisdom of the Li family's royal family, but also has a diligence that far surpasses others.

When Han Zhaozhi came in, the emperor had just finished reading the last one, and it was rare to be a little earlier than usual, and he looked at the sky: "Accompany me to the welcome building, what is there on the way, how are the preparations for the marriage of the two of you, I have never looked at it." ”

"Your Majesty should rest for a while."

"It's good to squint in the car, you say yours."

After getting in the car, Han Zhaozhi said: "Bai Nian's affairs have been almost arranged, he volunteered to go back to Jiangnan Province, and those secretly operated by the descendants can finally dig out a lot, it is estimated that the Bai family who serve in the army and various local governments will not be let go, but Bai Nian happened to return from southern Xinjiang and delayed the trip, so he coincidentally avoided the dead end." ”

"Before I go north, all hidden dangers must be removed."

The emperor closed his eyes and said: "I always feel that no matter how vicious she is, she is just a she-wolf who protects her cubs, and I don't ignore those little tricks, I also said that she will accompany me if she wants to play, but there must be no accidents in Daning during the battle of Northern Xinjiang, if she goes crazy and takes advantage of me to do something ugly in Northern Xinjiang, Daning may collapse even a corner of a mountain." ”

"I understand."

"If she wants to be a resentful woman, then be a resentful woman, so that she can't do anything but resentment."

The emperor was silent for a moment: "Move the Bai family? Before February next year, all the businesses operated by the Hou clan in Daning, both bright and dark, have been dug up, and I need a large sum of money for the Northern Expedition, which is just enough to use, and I have connived for twenty years, also to save money today. ”

"Obey."

"Be careful."

The emperor opened his eyes and looked at Han Zhaozhi: "If you are driven crazy, she will be the first to kill you." ”

Han Zhaozhi smiled: "The minister is not so easy to die. ”

"Which of the two is better, Fang Baijing or Gu Le?"

"From now on, Fang Baijing is better."

"Where's Geng Shan?"

"The big picture is not enough."

"Then let's look at Gu Le and Fang Baijing first, and in a few years, you will go out with me, and after that battle, I will let you go to the grassland."

Han Zhaozhi paused for a moment, bowed his head and said nothing.

"I know it's difficult for you, but whoever is in charge of the grassland can't believe it, only Yun Sangduo is a big Ai Jin I feel that nothing will happen to the grassland, the grassland has been peaceful for thirty years, Daning has won the battle against Heiwu, and the national strength can be doubled!"

The emperor's eyes lit up: "After me, Daning will be worry-free for a hundred years." ”

This is the great wish of the emperor.

The territory of Heiwu is larger than Daning, and it is unrealistic to expect to destroy Heiwu, such a huge empire, whether it is the number of people or the combat power of the army, is not inferior to Daning, even if it is economically inferior, how can it be easy to destroy the country? Even if Daning wins the battle in the next few years, the Black Warriors will only be hit hard, and the millions of soldiers in Daning will still not be able to rule over there, and it will not be possible for all the millions of soldiers to be transferred over.

"I understand."

The emperor closed his eyes again: "So I don't dare to rest, I don't dare to sleep more, I have too much to do, do you know what worries I have?" ”

Han Zhaozhi shook his head.

"Before I was born, the emperors of Daning were all stronger than me, but my son ...... The prince's personality is like this, he can't compare with the ancestors of the past dynasties, even I can't compare, I know the son Mo Ruo's father, I can see it clearly, he is at most just a person who keeps the success, so I don't dare to be idle, he can't be tough, and he expects his generation to win the black martial arts? ”

The emperor lowered his head: "The only thing I can do is to let him not have to fight with the black martial arts for the rest of his life after he succeeds to the throne, and I will not be able to slow down the black martial arts for a hundred years, and I will not worry about Daning in the next hundred years...... So what to do? The prince I teach can't harden it, and the children that the prince will teach in the future ......"

The emperor was silent.

These words, he can talk to the old dean, Han Zhaozhi and a few of them, who else can he talk to?

Why did he fight so hard?

It's because he knows that the prince can't do it.

Daning is such a powerful empire, even if external forces cannot destroy it, but two generations of weak monarchs can send Daning to hell from which they will never recover, there is really no need for more, two generations are enough, this is still to say that the prince is just soft and not incompetent, incompetent monarch, one generation is enough.

The emperor let out a long breath: "I can only rely on you by my side, I know that I am sorry for you to tie the future happiness of your family affairs with the fate of Daning, but I ......"

"That's the minister's wish."

Han Zhaozhi raised his head: "The minister has no complaints. ”

"I'm not a good person, but I want to be a good emperor."

There was silence in the carriage, for the first time, there was such an atmosphere between their monarchs and ministers, Han Zhaozhi did not blame the emperor for taking advantage of his relationship with Yun Sangduo, this is actually not a use at all, he did not lie, and one day he could no longer be entangled in the same place as Yun Sangduo, which was his wish.

"Your generation, accompany me to work hard."

The emperor closed his eyes again: "Only for the next generation, the next generation, no hardship, no crime, prosperous for a long time, the country is rich and the people are strong, I will be a soldier in the world, and there will be no soldiers in the future." ”
