The sun is shining today. In the evening, the sunset is extraordinarily brilliant, as if the majestic palace of Daming Palace is all plated with a layer of ink and oil paint, and the original majestic atmosphere adds a little dazzling and enchanting.

Shangguan Wan'er under the peach blossoms and willows is extraordinarily charming.

Xue Shao stood by the window, smiling and enjoying his brief time of relaxation and pleasure every day. Shangguan Wan'er strolled under the peach blossom tree with a book, sometimes concentrating on the book, sometimes looking forward as if she was thinking about the meaning of the book, and inadvertently looked up at the Xuanwu Palace, and the smile on her face was charming.

Xue Shao couldn't see her facial features clearly, but he could feel that she was laughing. At the same time, I can't help but smile.

The sunset is dazzling, but it loses the quiet beauty of Wan'er.

Just as he was distracted, there was a knock on the door, "Xue Gongzi is there?" ”

It's Cheng Boxian.

Xue Shaozhi said that these people must have ideas today, and it is not surprising that they will come to him. So he replied "yes" and came up to open the door for them.

The four swords are here.

"Didn't disturb Xue Gongzi's rest, did you?"

"Everyone is a brother, why bother to see each other like this, sit down!"

Cui Hejian inadvertently walked to the window and looked out, and suddenly shouted "Ah"!

"What's wrong?" Everyone was taken aback and hurriedly gathered around.

"I ...... I can't do it, I'm going to die! Cui Hejian clutched his chest and looked extremely painful, "Princess, remember to give birth to me and bury me!" ”

"Nonsense!" Everyone knew that he was playing treasure, so they laughed and scolded together.

Cheng Boxian and the others were taken aback when they looked at Qiuseyuan, "I said that Xue Gongzi is always hiding in the room, it turns out that he is hiding here to watch the beauty!" ”

Cui Hejian exerted enough strength to pull the tall and tall Cheng Boxian aside, "Don't stop you from dodging such a big piece!" ”

"I won't let you, I won't let you!" Cheng Boxian grabbed the window edge with both hands, Cui Hejian pulled him and didn't move, and everyone laughed together.

Cui Hejian had no choice but to shrink to the side and show his head to look at the side of Qiuseyuan, and said: "Just one glance, I feel like I was hit in the chest by a blunt instrument of 10,000 catties. Can't look at it anymore, can't look at it anymore! This is clearly a fairy from the sky, so beautiful that the country and the city...... Woo, I can't stand it, I'm going to die! ”

Everyone was amused together, and Cheng Boxian said angrily: "I know that Lu Dao is talking nonsense, and you can't even see people's faces clearly from such a distance, do you know that Lu Dao is not a big flower face pockmark?" ”

"So Brother Cheng doesn't know the romance and doesn't understand the charm!" Cui Hejian took out the professor's style and said with a sigh, "You see her every move like a flowing cloud, flowing like a fairy, just look at her confident and restrained calmness and ease, she is definitely not an ugly girl!" Looking at her posture of holding a book and contemplating, it is clear that she is a smart woman who is full of knowledge and aura! Brother Cheng, I bet - this woman is definitely a stunning woman! ”

When Xue Shao heard this, Cui Hejian, who is known as Zuo Fengchenwei's first talent, is definitely a master of hunting beauty, and his eyes are poisonous!

Over there, Shangguan Wan'er saw that Xue Shao's room was full of people, and they all crowded to the window to see her. Shangguan Wan'er couldn't help but smile, put away the books and walked towards the house with both hands on her back.

"Oops, I'm leaving!" Cui Hejian screamed regretfully.

Shangguan Wan'er walked to the door, suddenly stopped and looked back at the Xuanwu Palace.

"Oops, found out!" The four royal swords shouted in unison and stepped back, pushing and shoving.

"Shame, shame!" Xue Shao scolded with a smile, "The dignified court officials and the emperor's imperial guard generals were actually stared at by the women collectively and lost their armor and collapsed!" ”

The faces of the four men were hot, and they all left the window and sat down with a sneer.

Cui Hejian said: "Xue Gongzi, you don't know the way, those of us who are on an errand in Fengchenwei, the most taboo thing is to covet harem women. So we have always developed a habit of never daring to look at the harem women more! ”

"That's it, so this battle is not unjust!" Cheng Boxian smiled, "Besides, we haven't seen a woman in a few days!" ”

Xue Shaozhi said that they were all suffocated. The four royal swords are all the second generation of officials from wealthy families, and they are also officials, plus they are young and romantic, who usually lacks a pillow person?

"In a few days, the Martial Arts Academy will give everyone a day or two off." Xue Shao said, "Busy is busy, and you can't spread all your time in." After all, in addition to public office, everyone also has private affairs! ”

"Hehe, Xue Gongzi is close-minded, good holiday, good holiday!" Cheng Boxian and the others were happy.

"Four brothers came to me together, but something?" Xue Shao asked. This is the first time since the opening of the Martial Arts Academy.

Yuan Wanqing intends to create an atmosphere of "orderliness up and down", and everyone has always abided by this rule, except for Xue Chuyu, who is usually close to him, few people come to visit the door with Xue Shao.

When it came to business, all four of them stopped laughing.

Cheng Boxian said: "Xue Gongzi, we all have ideas about today's events. ”

"What thoughts?"

Cheng Boxian said: "The four of us discussed privately, and I felt that Feng Changshi would not deliberately embarrass us and would not send a bow horse over. ”

"Yes." Liu Mian, who has always been a little taciturn, said, "Although Feng Changshi is in charge of the military arsenal, all equipment must be issued with his consent. But we all know Feng Changshi's personality, although he is law-abiding and conscientious, he is not pedantic. If you don't send a bow horse this time, you simply won't give face to the five of us! ”

"This kind of thing is not something Feng Changshi can do." The other three echoed almost in unison.

Xue Shao nodded, and they almost broke the words, saying that this was what Li Xiantong meant. General Li Xiaoyi rarely went to the Wei Mansion, and even if he was there at the time, he had absolutely no reason to oppose it. Originally, the two Zhonglang would be in charge of the Wei Mansion together, but now Zhou Jitong is recuperating from his injuries at home, and of course Li Xiantong alone has the final say in the Wei Mansion.

But if they don't say it, Xue Shao will definitely not take the initiative to say it - isn't that sowing discord behind the scenes?

In the past, the Four Imperial Swords and Li Xiantong were very close!

So Xue Shao said: "Xue Chuyu replied that it is against the military system for us to borrow bow horses in private...... Come to think of it, it's the same thing. ”

"Just because he has a little reason, he has to be unforgiving!" Cheng Bo said angrily, "It's a big fart, do you need to make such a fuss?" It's just a few pairs of bow horses, what's the matter of being accommodating? We ourselves are the thousands of cattle with Zuo Fengchenwei leading the troops, is it possible that we can still spoil our own things? Isn't this treating us as outsiders and as thieves? Think about it...... Outrageous! ”

"People go to tea and cool!" Cheng Qizhi also spoke, shaking his head, "Could it be that the people of the Wei Mansion think that we have temporarily left the Wei Mansion to study in the Martial Arts Academy, and we will not be Zuo Fengchenwei's people in the future?" ”

"I think it's very likely!" Cui Hejian took over and said, "Besides, Beiya doesn't borrow bows and horses or borrow the school field, it must be Li Shangdan's meaning." Because only Li Shangdan said nothing in Beiya, and he has always been unkind. Others, such as Zhang Qianqiao and others, have always been very good at talking. ”

"Then it's obvious!" Cheng Boxian said, "Li Xiantong is Li Shangdan's son, of course he listened to his father's arrangement!" ”

When Xue Shao heard it, he was happy!

Come on, it's best for you to make sense of the Tao and tell the truth yourself!

"Then Li Xiantong really doesn't miss the old feelings, and he doesn't recognize people when he turns his face!" Cheng Qizhi shook his head with a sigh, "In the past, the people who called us brothers and sisters were very hot, and seeing that we might be leaving Zuo Fengchenwei, they treated us as outsiders!" ”

"What kind of bird brother is this!" Cheng Bo said angrily, "If you don't help, forget it, you will still trap us behind your back!" ”

"It's really chilling...... Liu Mian and Cui Hejian shook their heads.

Xue Shao smiled and said, "I heard Li Lianggong say that Li Xiantong has been active recently, and he wants to replace Li Lianggong as Zuo Fengchenwei's general. ”

"How's that going to work!" The four of them shouted together, "He hasn't become a general yet, so he dares to play yin with us; When he becomes a general, won't we all be swept away by him? ”

"Even if he doesn't have the power to sweep us away...... Doing things under him is also embarrassing! ”

Everyone talked and complained, in short, they did not agree with Li Xiantong as a general.

"Xue Gongzi, why don't you compete for the position of general?" Cheng Boxian said suddenly.

The other three looked at Xue Shao together, yes, Li Lianggong had hinted in public before, and you would take over the position of general! - Otherwise, the four of us wouldn't have decided on the spot, just talk about the martial arts academy as you like!

Xue Shao smiled and said, "I thought about taking over the post of General Zuo Fengchenwei. But then I thought about it again and again, and it was better not to be this general for the time being. ”

"For what?" The four of them asked in surprise together, is there anyone in this world who doesn't want to be promoted?

"The main reason, of course, is that I have not been here for a long time and I don't have enough qualifications. But there is another reason...... Xue Shao twisted his brows and lowered his voice, "I said it, the four of you will keep it secret!" ”

"Definitely!"

"Swear!"

"Swear a poisonous oath!"

"Okay, the four of us swear a poisonous oath together!"

Xue Shao nodded and said: "It is true that being an errand by the side of His Majesty the Emperor is a glorious lintel, but you see Li Xiantong and Zhou Jitong, who have been working for more than ten years, are still from the fourth rank. In other words, it is very difficult to make meritorious service on an errand in Fengchenwei. If you want to be promoted quickly without meritorious service, it is extremely difficult! ”

"That's right." The four of them nodded together in approval, "Feng Chenwei is a guard under His Majesty, making a mistake is a capital crime, and no fault is meritorious." However, this merit cannot be seen in the assessment of the officials, so the officers of Fengchenwei are generally promoted to the next rank in four years, and there are few rewards for meritorious promotion. As a result, many of us are rushing to become civilians. Be a civil official for six, seven, or eight years, and then turn into a state Sima and a governor Shi. From there, I started step by step, hoping to use my political achievements to find promotion. ”

Xue Shao blinked his eyes and looked at the four of them, and said coldly, "Military merit or political achievements, which one is promoted faster?" ”

"Military merit, of course! This is something that can be seen at a glance, Datang's most important military exploits! ”

Xue Shao smiled, "Military achievements are faster than political achievements, Zuo Fengchen Weili doesn't even have political achievements - four brothers, I am the successor of Duke Wei and the protégé of Duke Pei, why should I sit in Zuo Fengchenwei and wait for the official evaluation once every four years, instead of following Pei Gong to fight military merits?" ”

When the four of them heard this, they suddenly realized that they slapped the table together!

"That's true! - We will also go with Xue Gongzi! ”

Xue Shao smiled again.

Now, the Four Imperial Swords have officially united with me and are in the same camp!

——The task of winning over the four imperial swords to overhead Li Xiantong has been successfully completed!
