Liangzhou Mansion City, as the northwestern capital of the New Dynasty, but it also has a different style, without the customs of the south of the Yangtze River, and there is no great mansion Zhending Mansion like the slaughter. No matter how you look at it, there is only an indescribable depression and desolation.

The sandstorm had just faded, and the whole city was still shrouded in a gray-yellow, and there was no one on the already empty streets, and the old wine sails were torn back and forth, and hunting sounded.

There is a hill located in the west of the city, which occupies most of the green of the entire city, compared to the desolation of the surrounding area, it is like a gentle water town in the south, in fact, the people who live in it are really gentle people.

But now it's not as gentle as it used to be.

The owner of the Liangwang Mansion is still the Liangwang Zhou He on the surface, but in fact, the person in charge is already the prince Zhou Chen, and the young prince of the world is not very good, probably because of this reason, the people in the entire Liangzhou Mansion City feel that he is not a gentle person.

But who cares about the minds of ordinary people?

In the palace living room, Yang Wenhuan and Ji Kang sat together, and the young Prince of the World on the seat smiled very kindly, but Ji Kang, who noticed this expression, couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, he vaguely felt that this face was a little familiar in his heart, but in fact it was the first time he had seen this prince.

Yang Wenhuan didn't have any thoughts, but everyone didn't speak, and he couldn't speak.

Ji Kang has now been promoted, and in order to envoy the Xiliang Imperial Court, he has added the title of right counselor doctor in the name of the official of his Zhending Mansion, and he is already a fourth-grade official in name. In this hall at the moment, his official position is actually the largest.

Zhou Chen probably noticed Ji Kang's gaze, pursed his lips and smiled: "Could it be that there is something on Xiao Wang's face?"

Ji Kang came back to his senses and said with a smile: "The lower official is abrupt." Those flattering words can't be said in the end, Ji Kang can get up from a small county order in just three or five years, naturally he is very capable, under this situation in the north, those flattering people can't survive at all, or those in the court Although there are "contradictions" between each other, there is no ambiguity in the employment of people in the north.

Of course, it is inseparable from the employment strategy of today's officials, this emperor because of Lu Jian's words at that time, he insisted on opening an Enke, and then personally served as the chief examiner, cultivating a group of protégés of the Son of Heaven.

Ji Kang is very lucky, and now he is also a celebrity in front of the emperor.

Of course, Zhou Chen is not too good at holding the shelf.

“…… The mission will stay for one more night tonight, and it will be out tomorrow. Zhou Chen opened his mouth.

Ji Kang nodded: "The lower official came over today, and the official family also has a message to the prince."

Zhou Chen was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "Father went to Qionglin Garden early this morning, so I can only ask Master Ji to wait for a while."

These words have been said before, and it is a little embarrassing to say them at this time, so I ramble a few more words and change the topic again.

After more than half an hour, Liang Wang Zhou He walked in from the outside, Ji Kang and others immediately got up to welcome out, but Zhou He walked in as soon as he got up.

Zhou He handed the horsewhip in his hand to the guards behind him, glanced at Ji Kang, and said with a smile: "I just encountered the sand, and I came back a little late.

Ji Kang didn't have time to speak, Zhou He had already walked in and instructed Zhou Chen: "Chen'er, wait for this king to greet guests."

Zhou Chen nodded.

After Zhou He left, the atmosphere in the room was a little awkward. It is true that this Liang Wang Ye seems to be a little strange in his feelings for his son, of course, this is a family matter, and they are not easy to say.

So everyone sat down, drank tea and chatted.

Zhou He walked out after a while, laughed, raised his hand and motioned for Ji Kang to sit down, he sat down in the upper position, and Zhou Chen got up and stood behind him.

Zhou He looked at Ji Kang and said, "I'll talk about the matter later......

Ji Kang had no choice but not to mention this matter first, and then answered a lot of questions from Zhou He, which could be regarded as a sigh of relief.

Zhou He's face was a little ugly, but he quickly recovered and said to Ji Kang: "...... It seems that the official family has made up their minds. He said this, and stood up, "Well, it's like his father, but the little guy is still a little eager." He looked at Ji Kang, his face full of worry, "In this situation, it's not easy for him to do those things." ”

Ji Kang knew in his heart, but he had come to this point, and everything he was doing now was a last resort, if he didn't do it, there would really be no hope at all.

really wanted to explain something, Zhou He said again: "Forget it, if you are not in his position, you will not seek his own government, this king is an idle prince." It doesn't help to say that. ”

Ji Kang was slightly embarrassed, only the prince in front of him dared to say this kind of thing.

Zhou He smiled, "Eighty percent of the official's edict is also about Heng'er." Liang Wang Ye mentioned that Heng'er's eyes softened a lot.

Ji Kang nodded: "Back to the prince's words, but it's about the little son."

Zhou He sighed: "Just write a letter to say these things, it's not necessary to bother you, a big man, to make a special trip."

Ji Kang bowed down and said, "The prince praised it falsely."

Zhou He waved his hand and shook his head, "You and I don't want to be so polite." He laughed, "Master Ji, you can say it......"

Ji Kang bowed and opened his mouth.

——

On the way back, Ji Kang was worried all the way, and although Yang Wenhuan was curious, he was not easy to ask.

Ji Kang suddenly stopped, sighed, and then let out a long breath of turbidity, "I really can't understand the way of this world." ”

Yang Wenhuan looked over, and Ji Kang said with a smile: "General Yang, don't look at me like this."

Yang Wenhuan smiled: "My lord's words, so that the last general can't understand...... This world is not a good way of the world, you and I are courtiers, and we have done our duty. ”

Ji Kang said: "What the general said is true. This time I went to Xiliang, and I asked the general to take care of it. ”

Yang Wenhuan hurriedly said that he didn't dare, and then said: "The last general can actually only send adults to Cangsong City."

Ji Kang said: "I understand, but as a courtier, I should share the worries of the official family."

Yang Wenhuan understood that Ji Kang's words were true, and he also understood that the reason why the task of this envoy fell on Ji Kang was only because there was no one available, so even though Ji Kang was holding the title of a fourth-grade today, he was originally just a sixth-grade petty official, if the other party didn't give him face, he wouldn't have anything to say if he didn't treat him, and he might even die in a foreign country because of this.

But what needs to be done still has to be done.

It's like a generous tragedy that a strong man is gone.

A lot of things are really relative.
