Chapter 13 Inch Grows
After Shi Yong was ordered to leave the palace, he went straight to Shi Zhan's mansion, Xu San happened to be at the door to order some things to other subordinates, heard the sound of horses' hooves at the door, poked his head out to take a look, and saw that the person who came was Shi Yong, so he greeted him and greeted with a smile: "Commander Shi, what kind of wind blew you here." Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info”
"Xu San? Your son-in-law is not here, and Your Majesty has an order for me to convey it to him. Shi Yong also said hello very politely.
"Childe is practicing martial arts in the courtyard, please come with me." Xu San said, and led the way in front.
Shi Yong followed Xu San to the backyard and saw Shi Min dancing a halberd shirtless. Shi Yong visually measured that this halberd was about a zhang long, and the weight was not light, but in Shi Min's hands, it was a tiger and a tiger. Shi Min's footwork is calm, even stabbing and picking, extremely fast and sharp, and Shi Yong secretly admires it in his heart.
Xu San just wanted to open his mouth to call Shi Min, but was stopped by Shi Yong, Shi Yong whispered to Xu San: "Don't disturb Min Gongzi to practice martial arts, such skills are rare in the world, let me Shi someone open his eyes." ”
Xu San listened to Shi Yong's words and watched Shi Min practice martial arts with Shi Yong in the cold wind.
After a while, Qin Wan walked out of the house and shouted, "Childe, take a break and come over for a cup of hot tea." ”
When Shi Min heard Qin Wan calling him, he stopped and responded with a smile, "It's here." ”
So he put the halberd aside and walked over, while Qin Wan also handed Shi Min a cup of hot tea that had just been poured. Shi Min took the teacup, took a sip, and said with a smile: "Thank you, Miss Qin, you can enter the house quickly, it's cold outside." ”
"Childe, I'm fine, but you, practicing martial arts outside naked on such a cold day, if you suffer from the cold, it's not good, hurry up and get dressed in the house."
"I ......" Shi Min was about to speak, but there was applause behind him, and he shouted while clapping:
"Good skill! What a skill! "The person who came was Shi Yong.
"Commander Shi, why are you here?" Shi Min said, handed the teacup to Qin Wan, Qin Wan took the teacup and returned to the house very interestingly.
"If I don't come, how can I see Min Gongzi have such skills, the **** archery has opened my eyes, and I am even more admirable when I see Min Gongzi's martial arts today."
Shi Min smiled and said, "Commander Shi came here today, wouldn't it be just to praise my martial arts?" ”
"Naturally not, according to Your Majesty's instructions, please enter the palace before tomorrow and follow Your Majesty to the city gate to welcome General Shi Zhan's army back."
"Okay, you go back and tell Your Majesty, I'll be there on time tomorrow at one o'clock."
"Okay, then the subordinates won't bother Master Min, farewell!" Shi Yong said politely to Shi Min.
Shi Min instructed Xu San on the side: "Xu San, send Commander Shi." ”
Shi Yong smiled and nodded, and then left.
Seeing Shi Yong leaving, Qin Wan came out of the house again, holding a cotton coat in her hand, draped it over Shi Min, and then asked in a low voice, "That adult just came to say that General Shi is coming back tomorrow, right?" ”
Shi Min replied while getting dressed: "Yes, Your Majesty ordered me to enter the palace before tomorrow, and then we will go to the city gate to pick up my father back, you can stay at home tomorrow, don't run around, it's more chaotic outside, when my father comes back, I will tell him about you and your father, rest assured, my father will definitely not mind you living at home." ”
"Hmm......" Qin Wan responded.
Early the next morning, Shi Min got up, tidied up his clothes, and entered the palace.
Shi Hu sent a little eunuch to wait for Shi Min at the gate of the palace early, and this little eunuch was one of the ones who was rescued by Shi Min last time.
"Master Min, Your Majesty ordered me to wait for you here, please follow me to Hongguang Pavilion." The little eunuch said.
"Okay, you lead the way."
"Childe, please." The little eunuch stretched out his hand to guide the direction, and then walked next to Shi Min, and after the two walked for a while, the little eunuch said: "Master Min, thanks to your great kindness, I saved a few of us last time, and I have never had the opportunity to thank you in person, thank you so much." ”
"It turned out to be you, you don't have to take it to heart, but you have to be more careful in serving Your Majesty in the future, don't let Your Majesty be angry again." Shi Min smiled faintly.
"What Min Gongzi said is, but your great kindness and great virtue, the villain is unforgettable."
"Hehe, what's your name?"
"The villain's name is Lu An, he is from Jicheng, if the son has a place to find the villain in the future, even if he speaks, even if the sword is a mountain and a sea of fire, the villain is willing to go to the soup for the son."
"You're from Jicheng?"
"Yes, the villain left Jicheng and came to Yecheng when he was eight years old, and he hasn't been back all these years."
"Do you have any relatives at home?"
Lu An smiled bitterly, sighed, and said: "I have no father or mother since I was a child, and I was later sold to the palace by an elder of the family, and I don't know who else is in the family. ”
Lu An said, quietly wiping the corners of his eyes.
"You are also a hard-working person, but it is a blessing to be alive this year, it is said that the people of Jicheng were killed by Xianbei people a few years ago, if you stayed in Jicheng back then, maybe you are long gone, and now you are serving by Your Majesty's side, so you don't have to worry about food and clothing, you don't have to be so pessimistic."
"What Min Gongzi said is to make Gongzi smile." Lu An burst into tears and laughed.
"Your Majesty, Master Min is here." Shi Hu was changing clothes, and the waiter ran away to report.
"Hehe, this kid came really early, let him in." Shi Hu was in a very good mood today, his eyebrows fluttered, and his mouth hummed from time to time.
The attendants were also relieved to see that Shi Hu was in such a good mood, after all, serving the emperor is not an easy job, and if you are not careful, you may lose your head, not to mention that this Shi Hu is a moody person.
Shi Min, under the guidance of the chamberlain, walked into the inner room of Hongguang Pavilion, and saw that Shi Hu was still tidying up his clothes under the service of the chamberlain, so he knelt down at the door and shouted: "Shi Min greets Your Majesty." ”
Shi Hu heard Shi Min's voice, turned his head, beckoned to Shi Min, and shouted with a smile: "Come here." ”
Shi Min got up and walked over, looked at Shi Hu, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty is radiant today, and his spirit is also very good, it seems that he is in a good mood." ”
"I'm not the only one in a good mood today, right? Yes? Hahaha! Shi Hu said with a winkhead at Shi Min.
"You've found out, hehe."
"When your father comes back today, I will celebrate him in the palace in the evening, and you will come with you then. You are not young anymore, I have already followed Emperor Taizu on the battlefield when you were your age, so you will have to go to the barracks in the future to stay and follow your father to learn how to govern the army and fight. Of course, in the future, you can also come to listen to the early dynasty and listen to how those ministers deal with state affairs. Although those literati have a headache when they see it, they are still inseparable from governing the country. Shi Hu had already tidied up his clothes and pulled Shi Min to say as he walked.
Shi Min nodded silently on the side: "Grandson, remember Your Majesty's teachings. ”
"It's still early, I called you over so early just to let you eat with me, come, let's talk while eating." Shi Hu pulled Shi Min to sit down, and dozens of delicious dishes were already on the table.
At this time, at the gate of Yecheng City, all the civil and military officials, royal families and nobles have basically arrived.
Shi Zun saw Shi Shi in the crowd and walked over to say hello: "Second Emperor Brother, are you here so early today?" ”
Shi Shi smiled slightly and replied, "Ninth brother, you are not late." Today's fifth brother is triumphant, and I, as an elder brother, naturally have to arrive early. ”
"This time, the fifth brother has made a great contribution, what reward does the second emperor think his father will have?"
"How could I know that such a thing as a reward is entirely up to my father's decision? But what is certain is that the father will definitely reward him this time. ”
"Second Emperor Brother, if you also go to the battlefield to make a meritorious contribution, I think my father will also reward the Second Emperor Brother." Shi Zun seemed to be smiling, looking at Shi Shiwen's weak appearance.
Shi Shi's face was a little embarrassed suddenly, and said: "Fighting these things, you are still the fifth brother and the ninth brother, after all, you are doing it, and it is the same to have you share the worries of your father, hehehe......"
Shi Zun was a little reluctant, and his tone was slightly sarcastic: "We are all warriors, grown on horseback, born between tigers and wolves, the second emperor brother is a special case, among our brothers, except for the eldest brother, you have never been on the battlefield." ”
Shi Shi was a little speechless, and he was at a loss for a while, and at this time, Zhang Bao next to him stood up to speak for Shi Shi: "His Royal Highness King Qing, the so-called inch is long, and the ruler is short. Generally, the soldiers who charge into battle are soldiers, and the commanders are all strategic. ”
Zhang Bao said a few words, and Shi Zun, who was choked, turned red and blue for a while, and walked away angrily.
