Luo Shixin and Pingyang have special identities, and it is not that they can leave, not to mention that there are Li Yi's affairs that need to be dealt with.

Pingyang took Li Yi's affairs on him, and Luo Shixin naturally didn't care. Pingyang is not good at conspiracy and calculation, but after all, he was born in the family of emperors, and not being good at it does not mean that he does not understand and does not know anything, but he is unwilling to get involved in it. With her ingenuity and dedication, Li Yi will not escape the catastrophe.

Luo Shixin's headache is how to ask for leave.

The Tang Dynasty is not the 21st century, and in the 21st century, family leave, annual leave, statutory holidays, and weekends are really much stronger than the ancient system of official vacations. In the Tang Dynasty, holidays were only given during festivals, that is, festivals such as the Spring Festival, Shangyuan Festival, Zhongyuan Festival, and Xiayuan Festival, and there were no holidays at other times.

However, the imperial court is not a harsh place, and officials are allowed to take personal leave. In addition to being unwell and needing to take leave for a cold, you can also take leave because of something at home or the death of a loved one. This is somewhat similar to the reason for taking a leave of absence now, 1,500 years later.

The difference is that the ancient system of asking for leave had strict regulations, under normal circumstances, officials can only take three days off a month, and those who exceed three days will be fined. Of course, in the case of serious illness, there is a period of 30 days and 100 days, but if the time limit is exceeded, and there is no extension of the instructions from the higher authorities, the official will be dismissed, and the official position will be replaced by someone else, and he will be severely punished.

The most important thing is that the leave in this era needs to be approved by the superiors, especially for officials with status like Luo Shixin, who want to ask for leave. It is necessary to personally report to the emperor, explain the reason for the leave, and wait for the monarch's approval and decision. If the monarch does not approve. Then don't leave it. If you don't comply, you are committing a crime.

Luo Shixin took more than ten days off because of Zheng Liwan's disappearance, just because he was unwell.

Li Yuan agreed to approve it, but still detained Luo Shixin's money according to the usual practice. It's just that Luo Shixin has achieved brilliant results in recent years, and he has received rewards such as gold and silver, which are 100 times more than that of Yulu. I didn't care much about the money that was deducted.

The most troublesome thing is also here, Li Yuan is the emperor, and Luo Shixin makes excuses for asking for leave. That is tantamount to deceiving the king. Let those who have a heart know that if you stab you in the back, you can't argue. To be honest, it's not easy. Chivalry is forbidden by force. As the emperor, Li Yuan did not abide by the royal law. The people in the rivers and lakes who are not involved in production obviously will not have a good impression, and if they are honestly talking about assassin killers, they want to save Pei Qingyi, maybe Li Yuan will not necessarily treat Pei Qingyi for the crime of indiscriminate murder on a whim.

Pei Qingyi, as a heroine of the rivers and lakes, kills at will, and never shows mercy to those scum in the rivers and lakes, which is extremely undesirable in the bureaucratic system.

"Headache, headache!"

Luo Shixin came out of the princess's mansion. When I came to the door of my house, I was about to knock on the door. But he heard someone calling in the distance.

"General, General!"

Luo Shixin turned his head, but saw Li Shimin, who had not been seen for a long time, and a man with a face of national characters, a simple appearance, and a burly man came side by side, and was slightly surprised, Li Shimin's outstanding military exploits were unmatched, and his status was so high that he could almost compare to the prince, and only a few people in this Tang Dynasty could walk side by side with him, most of them were known to him, but now this one has never been seen.

Luo Shixin took a few steps forward and said hello: "I've seen Your Highness!" ”

Li Shimin dismounted and returned the salute, pointed to the burly man on the side and said, "Come, general, let me introduce you, this is Li Fuwei, the crown prince of Wu of the Tang Dynasty." ”

"Li Fuwei?" Luo Shixin didn't react at once, a little dazed.

Li Fuwei said with a smile: "Under the surname Du, thanks to His Majesty's love, I gave the surname Li." ”

When Roesson arrived, it turned out that he was Du Fuwei.

At the end of the Sui Dynasty, there was turmoil, and the world rose together, but if the speech was reckless and heroic, Dou Jiande and Du Fuwei were the first to be recommended. The two are one south and one north, but their actions are very different. Dou Jiande is trustworthy, righteous first, and people-oriented, even if he defeats Li Shimin's hands, he is also a well-known hero. Du Fuwei is also not much different, at the age of sixteen, he rebelled against Sui, although his ambition is not high, he only wants to save one side in the troubled times, but he is also anxious for justice and righteousness. The anti-Sui rebels in the world, Du Fuwei is the lowest status one, because he himself suffers from taxes, only a very low tax is charged in the territory, and he hates corrupt officials and corrupt officials, and specially orders that all officials who embezzle will be executed regardless of severity. Therefore, the Jianghuai under the rule of Du Fuwei is a rare place to worry about food and clothing in troubled times.

"It turned out to be King Wu! I've admired the name for a long time! Luo Shixin prayed, "long admiration of the great name" is a polite sentence in his mouth, but Luo Shixin is the most real praise in his mouth, ordinary people will never use the words "long admiration of the great name" in his eyes.

Du Fuwei returned the salute and said solemnly: "The name of the general is like thunder, even if he is in Jianghuai, he has heard of the heroic deeds of the general many times. It is a great pity that I have been in Beijing for many months and have not been able to get acquainted. I wanted to post a visit, but there was another regret in the general's mansion, so I had to give up. These days, I can't help but stop for a moment when I pass by the General's Mansion every day, and when I meet by chance today, I can't bear to make friends, so I don't want to let His Royal Highness King Qin introduce it. If you don't give up, go to my house and drink. ”

Luo Shixin wanted to refuse, but after looking at Li Shimin, he had a plan in his heart and responded in one bite.

Du Fuwei was overjoyed, although he was the fourth person in the Tang Dynasty, he did not have any arrogance, but was very kind and enthusiastic.

The enthusiasm made Luo Shixin a little uncomfortable.

Li Shimin smiled calmly, not impressed at all.

People are different, Du Fuwei is bold and martial, he just likes to make friends with rough people, especially Luo Shixin, a rough man who values love and righteousness, is brave and fearless, and he has the most appetite for him. In these days in Chang'an, as the new No. 4 person in the court, he only symbolically accompanied Pei Lian, Xiao Zhen, Yu Wenshi and these literati to get together, and most of the other times disregarded their status and drank with people like Qin Shubao, Wei Chi Jingde, Xue Wanjun, and Xue Wanche. Because of this, as an important member of the East Palace of the Crown Prince, he got very close to Li Shimin, and was a little disgusted with the gentle Li Jiancheng, and in the face of his wooing, he just responded politely.

Du Fuwei's Wu Wangfu is on the same street as Luo Shixin and Pingyang, facing the princess's mansion in Pingyang.

Luo Shixin did not ride a horse, and the three of them simply walked into the house.

Luo Shixin noticed Du Fuwei's temperament, and he also liked to deal with people with this temperament the most, so he immediately put aside a qiē for a while and accepted this Tang Wu King who had an appetite.

In Pingyang's house, Luo Shixin drank tea and ate vegetarian, and his mouth faded out of the bird. Du Fuwei will not be like Pingyang, good wine and good food, one after another.

The greedy Luo Shixin drooled, and couldn't stop toasting Li Shimin and Du Fuwei, and he drank happily.

Li Shimin was originally from a military background, and he did not refuse to come, and Du Fuwei was even more of a good drinker, and he praised Luo Shixin for being refreshing and interesting.

After three rounds of drinking, Du Fuwei said loudly with his alcoholic nature: "A certain person is also the number one person in Jianghuai, and when it comes to martial arts, he rarely meets opponents. But when he came to Chang'an, he lost to Shubao, Jingde and King Qi successively, and he was convinced. I know that I am not the opponent of the general, but I also want to ask the general to give me a lesson and let him open his eyes. ”

Luo Shixin drank happily, did not refuse, put down the wine cup, wiped the oil stains on his hands from the rag handed by the maid, and walked to the main hall.

Du Fuwei even took it by himself, wiped his hands on his body and strode down,

A strong wind is coming!

Duvowe raised his leg with a kick.

Luo Shixin slapped his palm lightly, blocked this move, and said, "Is this a slight contempt for me?" ”

Although Du Fuwei heard that Luo Shixin's martial arts were world-famous, he couldn't help but be suspicious when he looked at his weak appearance, and after a trick of temptation, he realized that people should not be good-looking, and shouted: "This time it's real!" The more violent kick with a whistling sound that broke the air was whipped towards Luo Shixin like a whip, and the unstoppable momentum was enough to crack the stone.

Luo Shixin broke his feet with his palms, fought hard, and his palms and calves came into close contact.

Du Fuwei failed to succeed in one move, and the second, third, and fourth kicks were kicked out in a row.

One kick is faster than the other, like three off-string arrow feathers shot one after another.

In the face of several "arrow feathers" flying through the air, Luo Shixin made a move, and each palm accurately sealed Du Fuwei's flying legs, blocking all his attacks.

There are no fancy things, no skills, it's just better than fast.

Du Fuwei kicked six times in a row, retreated, and laughed: "Sure enough, it's not a grade, I can't kick anymore, I'm convinced." King Qi can still fight a dozen, and the general, like Shubao and Jingde, is too much better than me, and if he really fights, he doesn't even have room to fight back. ”

After losing this competition, Du Fuwei was not annoyed, and still persuaded to eat and drink proudly, which was very refreshing.

After eating and drinking, Li Shimin seemed to have something to do, so he got up and said goodbye.

Luo Shixin also said goodbye when he saw it, and Du Fuwei did not force it, and made an appointment to meet again next time.

Luo Shixin and Li Shimin left Wu Wangfu together.

Li Shimin smiled: "Is there something wrong with the general? ”

Luo Shixin was not surprised, nodded and said, "There is indeed something, I hope His Highness can help with an idea." I have an important trip to Jiangnan, which is related to my friend's life, and it is very urgent, so I can't help but go. I don't know how to ask for leave from His Majesty here. ”

He didn't say who it was, and Li Shimin didn't ask in detail, and said after a while: "This is really a coincidence, the pharmacist was sick in bed some time ago, and it seems to be quite strict." On this day, the teacher is a father for life, and the pharmacist teaches you the art of war with his heart, and he is now ill and is serving as an apprentice. My father is busy with all things, and he doesn't need to make decisions about this kind of trivial matters, you write a good chapter and send it to the Chengqian Palace, this fist and filial piety, I don't want to approve it. ”

Luo Shixin was overjoyed and hurriedly said, "Thank you for your highness's guidance." ”

In ancient times, filial piety has always been emphasized, and everything is based on filial piety. But when parents are seriously ill, as the son of man, he must serve left and right, otherwise he is unfilial. Therefore, from ancient times to the present, parents are sick and parents are sick, and there is basically no such leave that is not approved.

Li Shimin governs on behalf of his father, and his approval has the same effect as Li Yuan's approval. (To be continued......)
