"Xianggong, what do you mean by this......" Fu Xiaojiu instantly became nervous.

Wan Lin said slowly: "As soon as King Zhao leaves, how can King Jie be looking forward to his safe return?" ”

Fu Xiaojiu thought about it and asked in disbelief: "King Jie must not be so kind." So what else can he do? Can someone still be sent to assassinate King Zhao? ”

Wan Lin said with a sad expression: "In order to fight for power and profit, King Jie is afraid that he will make a move that we all don't expect, right?" ”

"By the way, what is King Zhenbei's attitude towards King Zhao? What did you all say? Fu Xiaojiu is now very concerned about Wanlin's situation, and many questions have welled up in his heart.

Wan Lin's serious expression immediately became a little lighter, and he said with a smile: "King Zhenbei and King Zhao are about to fight side by side, and their current relationship is naturally good." To be honest, my impression of King Zhao is much better now than before. ”

After hearing this, Fu Xiaojiu thought for a while and said: "Although King Zhao's request to go on the expedition must also be for the sake of competing for the crown, his courage is also admirable. I hope he can really charge into battle and understand the hardships of the bloody battles of the soldiers. If he really becomes the prince and the master of Dachen, he will be able to give preferential treatment to the soldiers who defend Dachen. ”

Fu Xiaojiu paused a little when he said this, looked at Wan Lin's eyes inquiringly and asked, "Xianggong, are you going to become the Zhaowang Party now?" ”

Wan Lin replied frankly: "No, I don't stand anywhere at the moment, I just tell you what I really think in my heart." ”

Fu Xiaojiu snuggled into Wan Lin's arms, his voice was soft, but his tone was firm, "Then let's look forward to King Zhao's safe return." No matter what kind of turmoil there will be in the capital, we are not wrong to be loyal to the emperor. ”

The king of Zhenbei and the prince went on an expedition together, which must be the most important thing for Dachen.

The emperor led his ministers to practice for them, and sent them outside the city gates, and the people knelt on both sides of the street to see them off.

It's a pity that the officials of the Hanlin Academy were busy with affairs and didn't come to see them off, and when Wan Lin learned that they were leaving, he could only look out the window.

King Jie toasted King Zhao on behalf of all the princes, and the two also staged a deep brotherhood.

After sending off the king of Zhenbei and the king of Zhao, the emperor stopped outside the city gate and stared at their departing backs, and left for a long time.

After the army left, everyone's ears still echoed with the magnificent slogan of "Dachen will win", which made people's blood boil and full of fighting spirit.

After everyone followed the emperor back to the palace, the emperor made a will that surprised everyone.

In front of all the ministers, the emperor called King Jie to his side, and said in a serious tone: "Third brother, your seventh brother went out with the army this time, although there is the king of Zhenbei sitting in the army, but he is not going to hang out, after all, he will charge into battle and fight the enemy with flesh and blood." As an elder brother, you should be commended for taking the initiative to donate money, grain and grass, but in addition to this, you should also do something to better reflect your blood affection for your brother.

King Jie immediately asked respectfully: "The son is dull, and I ask my father to make it clear!" ”

The emperor glanced at the personal eunuch, and the eunuch stepped forward and said loudly: "Your Majesty's dictation, the king of Jiejie will be ordered to stay in the Qingjing Pavilion from today to copy the scriptures and pray for King Zhao until King Zhao returns safely." ”

Hearing this message, King Jie's mind went blank in an instant.

King Jie knelt on the ground, and his tone was extremely sincere: "The son of the minister has the order!" The sons and daughters should sincerely copy the scriptures to pray for the blessing of the seventh brother, pray for the blessing of the king of Zhenbei and the army, and pray for the gods and Buddhas to bless them with peace and triumph as soon as possible! ”

The emperor looked at King Jie with a smile of relief, and smiled lovingly, "Calm down, I will go to the Qingjing Pavilion with you, and I will also copy a day's scriptures to pray for them!" ”

As soon as the emperor said this, King Jie couldn't find any excuse to postpone the matter of copying the scriptures for a while, so he could only obediently follow the emperor to the Qingjing Pavilion together.

Wu Xuehai was stunned, leaned over to the elder of the Yuan Pavilion, frowned and asked, "Your Majesty, ...... he?"

Yuan Ge Lao shook his head lightly and said, "Don't be impatient. ”

Dou Xianji threw a gloating look at them at this time, and Wu Xuehai saw it and glared at him fiercely.

Dou Xianji sneered proudly, and walked out of the hall with Dou Xianxu with satisfaction.

Even though the officials of the Hanlin Academy did not go to see these scenes, the news was not slow to be known.

Everyone understood what the emperor meant, and letting King Jie copy the scriptures was to put him under house arrest in disguise.

Of course, the emperor knows his son better than others, so he will put him under house arrest in the palace at this time.

Wan Lin breathed a sigh of relief when he learned about it, but he quickly thought that even if King Jie was under house arrest in the palace, there were many Jie King Party, and they could still do a lot outside.

Wan Lin's official business today is still very busy, when the government is released, it is dark, the Hanlin Academy prepared snacks for the officials who worked overtime, Wan Lin ate a piece and felt sweet, so he didn't eat anymore, and he screamed with hunger as soon as he went out.

As soon as he walked out of the Hanlin Courtyard, a middle-aged man dressed as a servant greeted him.

"I've seen ten thousand adults, the small one is from the old family of Yuan Pavilion, and the elder of the pavilion is invited."

"Yuan Pavilion Elder?" Wan Lin was shocked.

The old man of the Yuan Pavilion is highly respected, but the city is very deep, and he is still a little arrogant, Wan Lin does not have a very good impression of him, and he is wary.

The servant smiled politely, "The elder of the Yuan Pavilion wants to discuss some scriptures with you, please enjoy the light of Lord Wan." ”

Wan Lin politely replied: "The elder of the pavilion is invited, how dare the lower officials not go?" Take the trouble to lead the way! ”

When he came to Yuange's hometown, Wan Lin found that Yuange Lao really discussed the scriptures and history with him, because Yuange Lao was not only him alone at the banquet today, but also many young scholars.

When the elder of the Yuan Pavilion saw Wan Lin coming, he stood up and said to him: "Lord Wan, the old man has called all the brilliant talents in the capital today, and they all want to ask you, the great talent of Lianzhong Sanyuan, to ask for advice, and ask Lord Wan to give advice!" ”

Wan Lin lowered his head and said modestly: "The elder of the pavilion is too famous. The qualifications of the lower officials are mediocre, and it is pure luck to be able to win the three yuan. The lower officials are shallow in their learning, and they should learn more from all the talents. ”

Yuan Ge Elder smiled appreciatively: "Hehe, Lord Wan, you are too modest, please sit down." ”

Wan Lin's seat was next to the Yuan Pavilion Elder, and as soon as he sat down, all the scholars greeted him respectfully.

At this banquet, the elder of the Yuan Pavilion discussed with Wan Lin and all the scholars about knowledge, and did not talk about state affairs at all.

Wan Lin's originally tense nerves slowly relaxed, but he controlled his alcohol consumption today, for fear of saying the wrong thing.

Wan Lin pretended to be drunk when he left the old mansion of the Yuan Pavilion, and all the way home, he was carefully recalling what he had said at the banquet, and found that there was nothing missing, so he slowly breathed a sigh of relief.

Fu Xiaojiu was settling accounts in the house, and when he heard the sound of Wan Lin coming back, he hurriedly put on his clothes and went out.

Seeing that Wan Lin was not drunk today, Fu Xiaojiu was not as nervous as yesterday, walked to Wan Lin's side briskly, held his hand and asked, "I heard that it was the Yuan Pavilion Elder who invited you over today, does he want to win you over for King Jie?" ”

"Yuan Ge Lao didn't woo me, he recently invited me to discuss the scriptures with some talented people in Beijing."

Wan Lin answered easily, but there was no smile on his face.

Fu Xiaojiu frowned slightly, "Looking at you like this, I'm afraid things aren't so simple, right?" ”

Wan Lin didn't hide it from her, and said frankly: "The lady guessed right, he was testing me." I want to take the opportunity to see if I have been co-opted by King Zhao. Yuan Ge is always the enlightenment teacher of King Jie, and his teacher really loves King Jie's apprentice. ”

Fu Xiaojiu asked puzzledly: "You are just a Hanlin Academy attendant with no foundation, why do they want to woo you so much?" Is it because you have a good relationship with the king of Zhenbei? Is he still a celebrity in front of the emperor? ”

Wan Lin nodded helplessly, "Maybe that's the reason." Since ancient times, those who win the hearts of the people have won the world, and those who are supported by officials and have many supporters will naturally be more liked by the emperor. In fact, they are not just trying to win over me, but also to win over the king of Zhenbei. ”

Fu Xiaojiu said expectantly: "When King Zhao returns, the position of the crown prince can also be established, right?" If it drags on any longer, I'm afraid people's hearts will be confused. ”

Wan Lin looked down at Fu Xiaojiu, his eyes were tender like water, "I hope so." Okay, don't talk about that, tell me about the workshop. ”

Fu Xiaojiu is still busy at both ends of the medical hall workshop today.

The workshop is about to be completed after yesterday's and today's transformation, and there are many male and female workers who come to apply, Fu Xiaojiu and Xu Yuanwai interviewed them carefully, and half of the people were decided today.

According to Fu Xiaojiu's plan, after recruiting the guys, and then training them, the workshop will be open in five or six days.

Knowing the progress of the workshop, Wan Lin was in a good mood, this time Fu Xiaojiu also had the Xu couple as helpers, and it would be a lot easier to show off his ambitions.

Since the elder of the Yuan Pavilion invited Wan Lin to the banquet, Wan Lin found that when other officials saw him again, they were more polite to him, and when he was doing things, some officials who were not familiar with him took the initiative to talk to him, and the correspondence was much smoother than before.

Only then did Wan Lin realize how much influence the Yuan Pavilion Elder had in the court.

Although Wan Lin was friendly with the Zhenbei Wang's family before and was deeply appreciated by the emperor, these officials were not as polite to him as they are now.

If King Jie can't sit on the throne of the crown prince, then how many secret enemies the person sitting on the throne of the prince must have, Wan Lin can't even imagine.

But since the elder of the Yuan Pavilion invited him, no one came to invite Wan Lin to the banquet for a few days, and Wan Lin ended up clean.

Fu Xiaojiu has already set six apprentices here, but unfortunately there are no girls to sign up, Fu Xiaojiu looked at Xue Chengwen with six little junior brothers, and couldn't help but think of a famous song.

"Gourd baby, gourd baby, seven flowers on a vine......"

The apprentice has been chosen, and the workshop is about to start, Fu Xiaojiu feels full of strength again, and is ready to roll up his sleeves and do a big job.

Mrs. Fang, who unfortunately lost her daughter, stopped at home for a long time, although she didn't go out much at home, but the news about Fu Xiaojiu did not fall at all.

She hasn't let go of her hatred for Fu Xiaojiu, and still feels that Fu Xiaojiu is the culprit who killed her daughter.
