Li Dongyang asked someone to send a letter to Zhang Yue, Zhang Yue was pleasantly surprised after reading it, it turned out that Li Dongyang told Zhang Yue in the letter that their second senior brother Bai Ang had returned to Beijing to report on his work after exterminating the Japanese invaders along the coast of Jiangsu, and had arrived in the capital a few days ago.

After the two brothers met, Li Dongyang told Bai Ang that Xiao Wu also lived in the capital, and Bai Ang was very happy and anxious to see Xiao Wu. Therefore, it is set to gather in the Li Mansion at the time of today's unitary. This letter is to invite Zhang Yue to the banquet.

After Zhang Yue read the letter, he immediately asked the person who delivered the letter to go back and inform Li Dongyang that he would go to the appointment on time.

Zhang Yue wandered around the hall excitedly, and Li Dongyang told her in the letter that the second senior brother didn't know that he was already the queen of the dynasty, and when he was in the academy before, the second senior brother didn't know that he was a woman, how to explain it to him? Is it to tell you that he is a woman himself? Or tell him first that he is the queen? Zhang Yue didn't know how to speak.

She was thinking about it, Zhu Youzhu sent someone to send her some candied fruit, she thought that it would be better to inform Zhu Youzhu about going to the banquet, so she asked Rushui to go to the imperial study to tell Zhu Youzhang, and she went out of the palace to Li Dongyang's house to meet her old friends for a banquet, and came back after dinner.

Rushui quickly brought back Zhu Youzhang's dictation, and there was only one sentence - "You can eat more food, but not too much wine." ”

Zhang Yue smiled when he heard this. immediately changed into a men's dress, took the exit token and walked out of the palace.

Zhang Yue saw that it was still early, so he went to Zhenwei Zhai to buy some pastries, and then went to the Li Mansion, the subordinates of the Li Mansion were very familiar with Zhang Yue, and when they saw that it was the master's junior brother Zhang Xiaowu, the young master, who was here, he quickly introduced him into the mansion.

Zhang Yue carried the pastries and came to the back garden, and saw Bai Ang and Li Dongyang chatting around the stone table in the pavilion from a distance. ”

Bai Ang turned his head when he heard the sound, and a familiar face appeared in front of Zhang Yue's eyes, the second senior brother who was over forty years old, his complexion seemed to be darker, and his sideburns were whiter, but his back was still very straight, and his eyes were bright. When he saw Zhang Yue, a smile immediately appeared on his face, and he stood up and beckoned, "Little Five!" Come here! ”

Zhang Yue walked quickly to Bai Ang's side, "Second Senior Brother, I haven't seen you for more than two years, Xiao Wu misses you very much!" As he spoke, he handed the pastry in his hand to Bai Ang, "Oh! Chestnut cake from the largest confectionery shop in the capital! Xiao Wu remembers that his brother loves to eat chestnut cake the most! ”

Bai Ang took the pastry with his left hand, gently patted Zhang Yue's shoulder with his right hand, and said happily, "Xiao Wu has grown up and become more and more mature." ”

Zhang Yue smiled shyly.

Li Dongyang stood up next to him and said with a smile, "Okay, Xiao Wu, take a seat." We've been waiting for a while. ”

The three of them then sat down around the table. The sumptuous wine and food soon filled the stone table, and the three of them had not seen each other for a long time, and chatted enthusiastically while eating, chatting about a lot of past events of the academy.

After a few rounds of pushing cups, Zhang Yue's fair face was flushed. Seeing this, Li Dongyang was afraid that Zhang Yue would drink too much and not be able to explain to the emperor, "Xiao Wu, drink your wine today, and eat more vegetables." As he spoke, he took away the flask next to Zhang Yue's wine glass.

Zhang Yue was a little drunk and said with a smile, "Why does everyone let everyone eat more vegetables and drink less?" ”

Bai Ang was stunned, "What?" Besides Dongyang, who else told you to eat more food and drink less? ”

Zhang Yue raised the corners of his mouth, "Heh! It was someone I liked who told me. ”

Bai Ang laughed when he heard this, "Xiao Wu has someone he likes?" Which girl is it? ”

"Yes..."Zhang Yue shook his head suddenly, "I can't tell you for the time being!"

Li Dongyang smiled silently beside him.

Bai Ang shook his head, "You! Keep it a secret from your brother! However, talking about this, Xiao Wu, there is something I have to ask you. I heard Dongyang say, you want to live in the capital for a long time in the future? What do you think? ”

Zhang Yue swallowed the braised rabbit meat in his mouth hard, "What do you think?" ”

"Of course it's your future? Since you chose to come to the capital, didn't you decide to join the WTO and become an official? ”

"Being an official? I didn't think about it. Zhang Yue replied subconsciously.

Bai Ang's brows furrowed slightly, "Pure nonsense, you are a closed disciple of the famous Mr. Huanchu, since you have decided to join the WTO, you must make some achievements, so as to live up to the teacher's years of teaching." How can you be so unambitious! Of course, although you are literate... That one... Not so outstanding, martial arts... This one... I can't talk about martial arts. But you also have to work hard, how can you give up on yourself so much! Besides, now that you have a sweetheart, you can make a name for yourself, so that you can give other girls a stable and happy life. ”

Li Dongyang listened to it next to him, a little anxious, Bai Ang is straightforward, Zhang Yue is now the queen of the Ming Dynasty, her identity is different after all, and she was about to officially inform Bai Ang of this matter, and found that Zhang Yue was secretly making a look at herself. He knew Zhang Yue too well, she must have thought of some ghost idea, so she closed her mouth and sat back and watched the changes.

Zhang Yue saw that he deliberately frowned, and said with a sad face,

"Senior brother, what should I do then?"

Seeing that Zhang Yue was depressed and regretted his words, Bai Ang said a little heavily, "Little Wu, don't be discouraged, the second senior brother will definitely help you." Besides, there is Dongyang! Now that he has joined the cabinet and become a second assistant, it must not be difficult to introduce you to the ranks, right? Dongyang? ”

Li Dongyang couldn't hold back a smile and nodded.

Zhang Yue pretended to stretch his brows slightly, revealing a longing expression, "Senior brother, you should help me find an errand." I want to follow you! After I have fame, I will marry that sweetheart. ”

Bai Ang nodded hurriedly, "Okay!" It's really not good, you just follow the senior brother to control the water. I think you'll be able to do some tricks, maybe you can use them. ”

Without waiting for Zhang Yue to answer, Li Dongyang's face changed slightly, "Senior brother, the emperor gave you the errand of controlling the Yellow River?" ”

Bai Ang pondered for a moment and said, "Yesterday, after the Imperial Emperor reported on his work, the emperor asked about the reign of the first emperor, and I followed Xu Youzhen to govern the water. Although he didn't explicitly ask me to control the Yellow River, he thought that he had the intention to hand over this errand to me. ”

Li Dongyang asked anxiously, "Senior brother, what do you think?" ”

Bai Ang's face was solemn, "Dongyang, I want to take the initiative to ask the emperor for this errand." ”

Li Dongyang's face changed greatly, "Senior brother, the matter of the governance of the Yellow River involves a wide range of issues, and it is extremely difficult to govern, and it is by no means an overnight matter. During the reign of the first emperor, the imperial court invested hundreds of thousands of silver dollars in river control, and there were not a few officials who took the initiative to ask for help, but all of them returned in vain. Even when the Yellow River burst its banks this time, when the emperor asked for advice, no one in the court dared to say more, and the officials understood that this was a black hole that could eat people, and whoever fell into it would not be able to get out. Senior brother, you have just returned from the extermination of the Japanese Invaders, and you must not wade into this muddy water......"

"Dongyang!" Bai Ang stood up with a "brush", his eyes widened, and he sharply interrupted Li Dongyang's words, "This time, the Yellow River is decisive at Kaifeng and Fengqiu Jinglongkou, affecting Shandong, Henan, Beizhili and other places, and hundreds of thousands of affected people have been separated and displaced. How can I hold back for the sake of my official career? As a secondary assistant, how can you deal with the government to pursue advantages and avoid disadvantages......"
