On the third pole of the day, Zhao Xian stood outside the main hall and was so hungry that his chest was close to his back, this emperor Lao Tzu's shelf was too big, and he didn't want to meet him so early, why did he let people come so early?

Zhao Xian entered the palace for the first time, and he was not familiar with Kyoto, so he couldn't take care of eating, so he hurriedly ran to the imperial city, and was led by Liu Gonggong through the small door to enter the palace, but he still had his own honorable treatment, but he didn't know that he had been led outside this palace, and then he was told that the emperor accompanied the minister to discuss political affairs, and he would only meet him when he came back.

Zhao Xian has been waiting from the rising sun to the present, wearing armor and sitting comfortably on the steps, he can only look at the shadow under his feet weakly, and then look around.

Gonggong Liu led him to the place, he didn't know where he slipped away, Zhao Xian didn't dare to walk around here, if he accidentally broke into ** and charmed a certain concubine, it would be a big deal, Zhao Xian was bored, so he could only lean against the wall and chat with the wood next to him.

Occasionally, when they met palace maids who came in and out, and when they saw Zhao Xian's heroic armor and good figure, they all whispered and laughed a few times, and winked at him.

Zhao Xian is not a good person, so he immediately took off his helmet and brushed the flowing black hair in front of his forehead, and whistled lightly, making Nizi blushing and blinking at him constantly.

It's a pity that although most of these palace daughters are well-looking and well-proportioned, there are not a few who are brilliant, and Zhao Xian lost interest after looking at it for a while, so he began to not squint.

The intestines grunted and protested again, Zhao Xian suddenly saw a group of people and horses turning around in the front hall, in front of the general holding the honor guard, and behind there was a step under the umbrella cover of Huang Luo, carried by eight eunuchs to this side, Zhao Xian suddenly perked up.

You're finally here.

After entering the hall, the guard of honor stood silent under the corridor on both sides of the palace gate, and after a long time, I saw a eunuch walk out of the palace gate, whisk the dust, and shouted sharply: "Xuan Zhao Xian enter to see!" ”

When Gonggong Liu left, he had already taught him the etiquette of dealing with the court, and Zhao Xian hurriedly stepped forward and said loudly: "See you in Zhao Xianjin."

The little eunuch smiled slightly, looked Zhao Xian up and down a few times, and said, "General Zhao, please come in with me" and turned around and went in first.

It was the emperor who wanted to be seen, and Zhao Xian's previous debauched and casual smile had to be restrained, and he hurriedly followed.

The hall was quite luxurious, Zhao Xian glanced at it casually, and saw five people sitting in the hall.

The three people sitting below, an extremely tall old man, with crane hair and white beard, although he was wearing a robe, his tiger spirit was exposed, just looking at the back, he knew that he was a general, and two of them were wearing official robes, Zhao Xian couldn't understand what his identity was, anyway, it should be quite big to be able to sit in front of the emperor.

Sitting above a man and a woman, the man is estimated to be sixty or seventy years old, he looks rich and rich, very majestic, he wears a winged crown, wearing a dragon robe with a disc collar and narrow sleeves, and the woman next to him is very young, wearing a phoenix crown should be the queen, looks quite beautiful, the dignified atmosphere of the taste is vividly and vividly, not mixed with a trace of wind and dust, it is not an exaggeration to describe it with a peerless style.

The old cow eats tender grass, what a waste, the queen of many waters, Zhao Xian sighed secretly, and didn't dare to look around when he came in, so he just followed the footsteps of the little eunuch and walked in, and when he reached the end of the scarlet carpet, the little eunuch flashed to the side and said loudly: "Zhao Xian has seen the emperor." ”

Zhao Xian knew that he must be sitting today, he couldn't help but be nervous, and bowed down and said loudly: "Weichen Zhao Xian greeted Your Majesty, the armor is not in full courtesy, I hope Your Majesty will forgive you." ”

A graceful and elegant voice above said, "Excuse me." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Zhao Xian got up and respectfully stepped aside, looking at his nose and nose, although he wanted to carefully look at the emperor's appearance with his own eyes, his eyes did not dare to look at him, his eyes only moved slightly, and he noticed that several bigwigs in front of him were looking back at him.

I only heard the graceful and elegant voice and smiled: "You are Zhao Xian?" Hmm, he is a few years younger than the prince, but his body bones are much stronger, and he really has a bit of the power of a tiger general, very good, very good, Zhao Xian, look up and let me take a closer look. ”

Do you think you are picking a concubine, and you will raise your head to show you, Zhao Xian does not have the awe of a scholar who is a scholar, and he is not in the mood to say anything that the ministers are afraid and dare not do, and then wait for the emperor to laugh twice, wave his hand, and say "I forgive you for your innocence", so after listening to the emperor's words, he immediately raised his head and looked behind the dragon book, but saw several pairs of curious eyes, staring at him tightly.

"Smack!" There was a crunch, and it seemed like the wine glass had fallen to the ground.

The emperor feasted the three princes here, and by the way met with the emerging tiger generals of Daliang, the scene was naturally very grand, the hall was very quiet, and the sudden sound directly attracted everyone's attention.

Zhao Xian raised his eyes to look, but saw that it was the tall old man with white beard, the wine glass in his hand fell to the ground, and his eyes were slightly distracted.

"An Guogong, didn't you recall the scene of the battlefield back then, and your majesty back then was not lost to this young general!" Imperial Doctor Xie Mo looked at Old Man An, shook his head and laughed a few times, and at the same time looked at Zhao Xian with great appreciation.

Although these people are all courtiers, their status and qualifications are not ordinary, and they are not so restrained when they speak in front of the emperor.

Old Man An came back to his senses, and hurriedly bowed down and said: "Your Majesty forgives me, my old body is useless, and I can't hold the wine glass steadily." ”

Old man Ann? Isn't that Yijun's grandfather, Zhao Xian was slightly startled, and secretly looked at the old man a few times, he really looked like himself, and he was as strong as a cow, no wonder Yijun would let me pretend to be his heir.

"It doesn't matter." The emperor gently raised his hand to let Old Man An sit down, and then looked at Zhao Xian and said, "I heard that you were just a blacksmith in the past, and you didn't dare to forget the country's worries, so I am very relieved." ”

Zhao Xian was dissatisfied for a while, if it weren't for the murderer and the law, he wouldn't have been a soldier at all, since he was locked outside the city gate to fend for himself, he didn't have a good impression of the court at all, even your life is not uncommon in the court, what do you still remember the sorrow of the court?

But when the emperor asked, he couldn't say no, he could only be grateful: "Weichen reads the book of sages, learns the way of a gentleman, receives the grace of His Majesty, and serves the country loyally is Weichen's lifelong dream." ”

After speaking, Zhao Xiandu blushed, and it was not fun to talk nonsense with his eyes open.

The queen glanced at Zhao Xian a few times, and said softly: "I heard that General Zhao is still a famous talent in Jiangnan, why don't you participate in the imperial examination and enter the official career, but abandon literature and martial arts?" ”

After speaking, the queen also glanced at the imperial historian Xie Mo, both of them are from Fuguotang, and their hearts are naturally oriented towards the reader, and they feel very incredible about Zhao Xian's abandonment of the pen and Rong.

Seeing that everyone was looking at themselves and waiting for an answer, Zhao Xian's eyes turned and he said: "In today's world, the emphasis is on Taoism and light weapons, heavy on literature and light on martial arts, and the military merits of a hundred battles are not as good as a splendid article. ”

In fact, what Zhao Xian wants to say is the first half of the sentence, this big beam is too heavy on literature and light on martial arts, and he doesn't even develop firearms, blades, etc., and his mind is full of splendid articles.

"Good ambition!" Old man An clapped his hands, these words were very much in line with his appetite, he himself is a military general, how can he not know the disadvantages of Da Liang's heavy literature and light martial arts, but Da Liang needs the support of scholars very much, and it is almost impossible to reuse military generals to suppress Wen Chen.

Sure enough, as soon as Zhao Xian's voice fell, Doctor Yu Shi Xie Mo sank and his face was very unhappy. Seeing this, the queen was afraid that the two ministers would quarrel, so she hurriedly said: "General Zhao, I heard that you are in Jinling, and you dare to fight tens of thousands of Qi troops with four hundred soldiers and horses. ”

Zhao Xian is also afraid of offending people by talking nonsense, any big guy in the hall can pinch him to death several times, he can only tell the story in Jinling according to his words, Chen Qing naturally and Zhao Xian were angry when he wrote the song, so as not to ask in the future What the two people said differently, he just followed what Chen Qing wrote, and roughly described it.

During this period, he always felt that the eyes of the three old men in front of him were wrong, especially the An Guogong, staring at his face, as if there was a flower on it, Zhao Xian was a normal person, no matter how bold he was to be watched by such a group of bigwigs, he was still a little hairy in his heart, and carefully finished the process at that time.

Under the repeated inquiries of several people, Zhao Xian's face saint's matter was over, and the next thing was the reward, the old emperor gave him a royal card for walking in the palace, and awarded him the same Jinshi background, a bounty of one hundred taels, a thousand silk horses, and from now on, he is the commander of the guards in the East Palace.

Zhao Xian was surprised when he heard the news, the so-called commander of the guards was actually standing guard outside the East Palace, he was a war feat, how could he have to give a marquis to the princess or something, how could he kick him to the East Palace as a gatekeeper? , Zhao Xian was very unsuitable for this new identity, and when he thought of being a guard for the dead fat prince, he was dissatisfied for a while, so he was too uplifting the dead fat man.

However, the old emperor opened his mouth, and he couldn't refuse, so he followed the little eunuch through the palace gate and went straight to the place where the prince lived.

Entering a palace, Zhao was waiting outside the door, and the little eunuch went inside to report. After a while, the palace door opened, and I saw a middle-aged man about fifty years old, with a flick of the sleeves of his robe, and walked out angrily.

Zhao Xian, with the original intention of respecting the old and loving the young, made way for this person, but saw this person suddenly stop.

The middle-aged man looked Zhao Xian up and down a few times, and the anger on his face was instantly hidden, and he said with a smile: "You are Zhao Xian?" ”

"It's Zhao Xian below." Zhao Xian saw that this guy dared to lose his temper in the place where the prince lived, and he was probably also a big official, so he replied politely at the moment.

"Not bad, not bad." The middle-aged man stroked his beautiful beard and nodded again and again, and praised: "It's really a talent, but it's a pity that the old man doesn't have a daughter, otherwise he would have to get married to you." ”

This, this... Zhao Xian was flattered, this old man was too hospitable, he praised me like this when they met for the first time, he hurriedly bowed and said: "Mr. has won the award, Zhao is a rough person, how can he deserve such praise." ”

"Well deserved." The middle-aged man nodded and smiled: "Old man Lin Qingyuan, the current Guozi Priest Wine, if you need to go directly to me in the future, ordinary things can still help you." ”

"It turned out to be Mr. Lin, who has admired the name for a long time, and has admired the name for a long time." Zhao Xian was shocked when he heard the name, the painting sent by the prince was not painted by this person, he was really a big man, which was too easy-going.

"Don't dare to be." Lin Qingyuan glanced at Zhao Xian with appreciation, and then said: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is studying his homework inside, and he will summon you later, the old man still has important matters, so he will go first." ”

"You always walk slowly." Zhao Xian looked at his back and was stunned, thinking about how his popularity was so good, and at this time, the little eunuch who sent the message also came out and said to him: "Lord Zhao, the prince asked you to go in, and our family will go back first."
