Weiyang Palace, Sima Gate, Han Yan jumped out of the car and walked quickly towards the palace gate. When the guard with the halberd saw him, he hurriedly bowed and saluted. Respectful.
Han Yan turned a blind eye and walked by with her head held high. Walking to the door, he was about to raise his legs to enter the door, when he suddenly stopped again, glanced at Dongfang Shuo from a distance, and grinned at the corner of his mouth. "Dongfang Manqian, you are in a good mood today."
Dongfang Shuo held the halberd in both hands, squinted his eyes, and pouted, blowing the streamers of the halberd to dance wildly, but ignored Han Yan. Han Yan smiled, and while tapping his palm with the golden horse whip, he walked over and glanced at Dongfang Shuo up and down.
"A brand new outfit, a sword has been changed, and you have made a fortune?"
Dongfang Shuo slowly turned his head and looked down at Han Yan. "If you are allowed to shoot birds with gold pills, I will not be allowed to get rich?"
Han Yan stood three or four steps away from Dongfang Shuo so that she didn't have to tilt her head too hard. "Where's the money? Tomb robbery? ”
"Do I need to rob the tomb of Dongfang Shuo?" Dongfang Shuo snorted, twisted his head again, and pointed his nose at Han Yan. "I'm full of knowledge, and if I show a little bit casually, I can have no worries about food and clothing, but I don't need to rely on these crooked ways."
Han Yan blushed, snorted, and turned around to enter the palace.
Liu Che was shooting arrows in the side hall, and Li Danghu was accompanying him. On the arrow Hou a hundred steps away, two arrows were nailed, and more than a dozen arrows fell sparsely next to it.
Liu Che was a little frustrated. "When I was a household, I practiced archery at the age of eight, and all of them are contemporary famous teachers, so far eighty steps are still ten and five, why Liang Xiao practiced shooting for a year, and he can be a hundred steps away?"
Li Danghu said unhurriedly: "Although Your Majesty is accustomed to shooting, what you ask is not to shoot far, but to strictly observe the shooting salute, which is different from what Liang Xiao wants, and there is no need to compare." Moreover, with Liang Xiao's current strength, it is also a coincidence in a hundred steps, and he is not sure if he shoots again. ”
"So, there's an element of luck? It's just that his luck is too good. ”
"That's true. According to Zheng at the time, although Liang Xiao was young, his luck was quite enviable. He was once ambushed, unconscious, and forgot many things, but he was blessed by misfortune, his mind was opened, and he was reborn from then on. He fought a life-and-death battle with a famous master, was seriously injured, unconscious, and his opponent fired a few steps away, but he was unharmed. ”
"Ho!" Liu Che exclaimed: "He is really blessed." If you don't die in a great calamity, you will have a blessing in the future. Wang Sun, what do you say? Hey, what's wrong with you? ”
Han Yan stepped forward and saluted, reached out to take the bow from Liu Che's hand, took another arrow, pulled the bow hard, carefully aimed at the arrow Hou a hundred steps away, and let go of the string. With a "snap", the feather arrow hit the arrow, but it was called the next part on the edge. With a gloomy face, he shot two more arrows in succession, but one arrow missed the target, and the other arrow only hit the upper one, and he didn't even shoot the bow on the periphery.
"I'm in a bad mood today, so I won't." Han Yan was furious and threw her bow on the ground.
As soon as Han Yan came in, Li Danghu's face was not good-looking, and seeing that Han Yan did not answer Liu Che's question, and snatched the bow from the Son of Heaven, he was already a little unable to hold back. At this moment, seeing Han Yan throwing the bow on the ground, he was immediately furious, and said sharply: "Little slave, dare to be rude in front of the Son of Heaven?" ”
Han Yan glanced at him. "Why, in front of the Son of Heaven, do you want to insult me like Dongfang Shuo?"
"Bold!" Li Danghu hurried over in two steps, slapped his face, and slapped Han Yan's face. There was a crisp sound of "pop", and Han Yan's white and pink face suddenly turned red. Han Yan was taken aback, covered her face, and glared at Li Danghu with an incredible expression. "Li Danghu, you dare to hit me?"
"The rude dog slave in front of the king, everyone can beat it." Li Danghu drank vigorously, rolled up his sleeves, and rushed over again. As soon as Han Yan saw that the situation was not good, her momentum suddenly weakened, and she turned around and fled. Li Danghu took a big step to catch up, caught up in two steps, and knocked Han Yan to the ground with one punch.
Seeing this, Liu Che hurriedly stretched out his hand to stop him. Li Danghu was still angry, and said loudly: "Your Majesty, how can such a courtier who does not know the number of etiquette stay by Your Majesty's side. Please let Your Majesty allow the minister to kill him, even if it is a capital crime, the minister will admit it. ”
Where did Liu Che dare to let him, he urgently ordered the waiter to pull Han Yan away, but he didn't blame Li Danghu, and continued to ask about archery and Liang Xiao. The two talked for a long time, Li Danghu said goodbye and left the palace, and Liu Che came to Han Yan and scolded: "Wang Sun, what's wrong with you today?" ”
Han Yan slapped Li Danghu a few times, half of her face was swollen, and she was even more aggrieved when she heard Liu Che's words. He turned over, knelt down in front of Liu Che, hugged Liu Che's legs, and cried loudly.
"Your Majesty, after rebelling against your ministers, you will be blessed with heaven and be friendly with Your Majesty. I wanted to serve Your Majesty with a humble body, but I unexpectedly brought Your Majesty to shame. Today, he was first humiliated by Dongfang Shuo, and then beaten by Li Danghu, the minister has no shame to live, please give the minister a death, all Your Majesty will have a clear reputation, and the minister will be loyal to His Majesty for the last time......"
Hearing Han Yan's sadness, Liu Che became more and more unbearable. He took Han Yan's hand, helped Han Yan up, and the two sat side by side on the couch. Liu Che wiped the tears from Han Yan's face with his sleeve. "What happened to Dongfang Shuo?"
As soon as she heard this, Han Yan, who had just calmed down, cried loudly again, fell on Liu Che's lap, and said the story of being ridiculed by Dongfang Shuo outside Sima Gate while crying. At this moment, Li Danghu is not in front of him, he can be coquettish in front of Liu Che, and he even added fuel and vinegar to sue Dongfang Shuo, and almost said that Dongfang Shuo went to rob the emperor's tomb.
Although Liu Che didn't fully believe Han Yan, he was also curious, and immediately asked Dongfang Shuo to summon him.
After a short time, Dongfang Shuo took a big step and came to Liu Che with his head held high. Liu Che glanced Dongfang Shuo up and down, and saw that Dongfang Shuo was really dressed in new clothes, and the long sword on his waist had also changed to a higher grade, so he calmed down and asked sharply: "Dongfang Shuo, what illegal things have you done recently?" ”
Dongfang Shuo looked dazed. "Your Majesty, if you read the books of the sages and practice the teachings of the sages, and do not exceed the rules, why do you do anything lawless? Which villain is falsely accusing the minister, please treat Your Majesty for the crime of backsitting, so as to set the record straight. ”
"If you haven't done anything wrong, then where did your new clothes and sword come from?"
"This?" Dongfang Shuo proudly dusted off the hem of his clothes, held the hilt of his sword again, and puffed up his chest. "The minister asked for it from Liang Xiao."
"Liang Xiao? As far as I know, he is very stingy, how can he manage your clothes for no reason? ”
"When you don't have money, of course, you have to be diligent and thrifty, and now that you have money, he will be generous."
"Got rich?" Liu Che's eyes rolled, and his eyes were a little unhappy. "A gift from Lord Huainan Weng?"
"It used to be just a gift, but now it's a sale." Dongfang Shuo's eyebrows danced, and Liang Xiao was asked for brocade by the Hou Mansion, and Liang Xiao didn't want his mother to be affected, and he wanted to transfer the double-sided brocade skills. "Liang Xiao doesn't know how to do business, he only offers 100 gold, but the minister stopped him and offered 500 gold. If he succeeds, he can make a profit of fifty gold......"
Looking at Dongfang Shuo, who had a nouveau riche face, Liu Che did not speak. He rolled his eyes and muttered for a moment: "Can the double-sided brocade technique be worth five hundred gold?" ”
Dongfang Shuo blurted out without thinking. "Of course it's not worth it, it's not even worth a hundred gold."
"In that case, why do you think the offer of 500 gold can still be sold?"
"Your Majesty, the minister's offer of five hundred gold, the same as Liang Xiao's offer of one hundred gold, but he just doesn't want to sell it." The East is full of pride. "It's just that he doesn't have the courage of a minister."
