Chinese New Year's Eve is the most beautiful night.

Luoyang.

On the grand palace banquet, the staggered planning, singing and dancing, the gathering of monarchs and ministers, laughter... This was the happiest day since Yang Guang's rebirth, and it was also the first time he felt that Luoyang was better than Dongdu.

Just half a year ago, before he went south to Jiangdu, he wrote a poem to express his helplessness: "There is no desire to return to the fly, and there is no reason for the wind." ”

But now, the knot in his heart has dissipated.

The national mess that he couldn't clean up in his previous life, he has done it now.

The world is peaceful, this is his merit.

Yang Guang sat in the dragon chair on the high platform, opened his hands, and looked down on all beings: his prosperity has arrived...

"Everyone, Aiqing is open and drinking, and if you don't get drunk tonight, you won't return."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Empress Xiao saw Yang Guang and the ministers drinking pot after pot, and couldn't help but persuade: "Your Majesty, you have already drunk a lot, so take a break." ”

Yang Guangda waved his hand and said indifferently: "I'm happy today, I must have a good drink, don't be disappointed, come, drink with me." ”

Empress Xiao had to laugh and raise her wine glass.

Yang Guang drank a cup and called the chamberlain: "Order the Ministry of Works, order those craftsmen to rest for a day tomorrow, and start resuming work the day after tomorrow, so as to complete it as soon as possible." ”

The chamberlain hurriedly went to give the order to the Ministry of Works.

The Ministry of Works, who was drinking happily, was stunned when he received the order, didn't he say that he would have a seven-day holiday? Why do you go to work the day after tomorrow?

Despite all the doubts and reluctance in his heart, this is Chrysostom, and he must do it.

The chamberlain went back to restore his life, and Yang Guang instructed him again: "Go, tell Hu Meiren, Chen Meiren, and Xu Meiren to pack up and wait for me in the dormitory." ”

When Empress Xiao heard this, she poured the wine for a while, and it was not until the wine overflowed from the cup that the palace maid reminded her that she woke up.

At this time, Yang Guang raised his glass to her again.

Empress Xiao smiled, elegantly picked up the wine glass, and hid the bitterness on her lips.

Turkic Tent.

The thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve is a festival of the Central Plains people and a festival of the Turkic people.

After the revelry, Shibi Khan and his two brothers sat down to eat tea and discuss things.

Ashina Gulphosheh frowned and said, "Khan, now that all the rebellions in the Central Plains have been extinguished and returned to peace, this is not a good thing for us. ”

Ashina Dubi echoed: "Yes, it's good if the Central Plains is in chaos, the more chaotic it is, the more beneficial it will be for us." In the current situation, if Yang Guang eases up and gathers the strength of the whole country to deal with our Turks, it will be bad. ”

Shibi Khan has been worrying about this matter recently, but just now, he had a good idea, so he smiled and said, "Don't worry, I already have a countermeasure, you just watch." ”

-------

Jinyang, the mansion of the Tang Kingdom.

In the main hall, the candles are lit up, and the braziers in the room are twice as large as usual, because everyone is here to keep the New Year.

Li Yuan landed a black chess piece on the chessboard and said casually: "That day, I accidentally saw you writing a military book in Mayi, which seems to be about military formations, I wonder if you can let me take a look?" ”

Li Jing paused, but soon fell down, and said with a calm face: "Tang Guogong said that he was joking, how could I, an eight-grade official, write a military book?" It's just that he has nothing to do and copies the works of his predecessors. ”

Li Yuan didn't refute either: "The pharmacist is too modest, although your official position is not high, but your achievements are outstanding, Wang Taishou praises you a lot."

"I want to transfer you to Jinyang after the New Year, what do you think?"

Li Jing was very surprised when he heard this, his hand slipped, and with a "click", the chess pieces he had just caught fell back into the chess box.

What kind of person Wang Rengong is, he knows very well that according to Wang Rengong's character, Wang Rengong will never say good things about him in front of Li Yuan.

So, what does Li Yuan mean by saying this deliberately? Why did Li Yuan suddenly want to transfer him to Jinyang?

Suddenly, a bright light flashed through his head, too fast for him to catch.

Li Jing tried his best to suppress the suspicion in his heart, and said calmly: "Tang Guogong has promoted Li too much, Li knows that he is not talented, and he still needs to temper it." ”

Actually rejected him? Li Yuan was surprised, such a good promotion opportunity, ordinary people had already accepted it with gratitude, but Li Jing politely rejected him.

Li Yuan rubbed the sunspot in his hand, a slight smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, looked at the chessboard, and said meaningfully: "This move of the pharmacist is really interesting, this move, I have to think about it before making a move, otherwise I will lose this game of chess." ”

Li Jing was silent and glanced at Zhang Chuchen without a trace.

Zhang Chuchen didn't notice Li Jing's gaze, she was chatting with the eldest grandson: "... You're young and don't know how hard it is to raise a child. Let me tell you, just those two stinky boys in our family, I choke every day.

"At the beginning, I had to be angry with them every day, but it was the pharmacist who took action to stop them."

The eldest grandson was surprised: "So naughty, I was quite well-behaved when I saw Li Dejian in my house, and I played with Xiao Yu'er every day, and I didn't see any trouble." ”

"That's not familiar with you, besides, this is the Tang State Mansion, he doesn't dare to make a mistake." Speaking of this, Zhang Chuchen couldn't help but talk to the eldest grandson about the stubborn deeds of the two brothers Li Dejian.

The eldest grandson was stunned for a while, and after listening, the eldest grandson couldn't help but sigh in his heart: It's better to have a daughter, like a little Yu'er, smart and caring.

Speaking with a dry mouth, Zhang Chuchen reached out to take the teacup, and found that after talking for so long, the tea in the teacup was still warm, and he couldn't help but glance at the maid ring standing beside him.

Sang Zhong smiled gently, and let her look at it generously.

The eldest grandson followed and looked, but found that there was one person missing, "Why are you alone?" What about Ki Shui? ”

Sang Zhong looked at the big round table in the middle and replied, "Where it is." ”

The eldest grandson looked over and found that Qi Shui was standing behind Wang Yu, stretching his neck curiously to watch them play nine rings.

Li Dejian took the Nine Links that only solved two rings and rubbed them to Cheng Zhijie's side, "Captain Cheng, how to solve this Nine Links, you teach me." ”

Qin Qiong and the others all stopped their movements when they heard the words and looked over.

Cheng Zhijie put down the nine rings in his hand, took Li Dejian's nine rings, and recovered them in three or two.

Wang Yu, who was unwrapping the lock of Kong Ming in Sect Leader Sun Jiaqing, glanced over, and first looked at the nine-link that Cheng Zhijie put down, she noticed it just now, Cheng Zhijie has been recovering there since he untied the nine-link.

Failed, though.

Thinking of the nine consecutive rings he had just restored Li Dejian, the technique was fast and skillful, and Wang Yu suddenly couldn't figure out if he really didn't know whether he was restoring or pretending.

Cheng Zhijie said while demonstrating: "Look, it takes three hundred and forty steps to unlock the Nine Links, so you have to be patient..."

"It really takes three hundred and forty-one steps?" Li Dejian muttered in a low voice: "I thought Xiao Yu'er had tricked us." ”

After looking at a few more steps, Li Dejian was dizzy, and he suddenly lost his patience, grabbed the nine rings, and said: "There are so many steps, it's too difficult, I won't learn it." ”

Cheng Zhijie smiled and went with him.

Qin Qiong said suddenly: "Today, I saw that Xiao Yu'er solved the nine links very quickly, and it seems that the steps are much less than Brother Cheng's." ”

His words caused Cheng Zhijie to look at Wang Yu, and then heard Qin Qiong ask Wang Yu: "Little Yu'er, how many steps did you take to unlock the Nine Links today?" ”
