Chitose House, back garden fish lake.

A boardwalk made of thick mahogany piles runs along the shore to the center of the lake.

On the wooden platform with a square circle, Wei Zhongxian was dressed in a brocade robe, sitting on the Taishi chair, holding a fishing rod in his hand, his eyes seemed to be open, his spirit was in a trance, and his whole body looked exhausted.

Behind him, two small chamberlains stood respectfully, one holding the bait in his hand, on which was placed a whole row of bait-ready hooks, ready to be replaced, and the other holding the fish cage in the other.

The two men were clearly trained, standing there, hunched over, motionless.

And on the shore of the lake, there are a large number of officials standing, respectfully waiting for Wei Zhongxian to fish, don't look at the number of people, but all of them are above the third grade, because the junior officials below the fourth grade of the Wei Mansion can't enter at all.

Facing the sun, sweating on their heads, their eyes were obviously intertwined, but they tried to make a relaxed appearance, and they didn't even dare to step forward and disturb Grandpa Wei's leisure and elegance.

The floods in the south of the Yangtze River, the civil unrest in Shandong, and the Northwest Army can be adapted.

An official wiped his sweat nervously, pinched the fold in his hand, and asked anxiously: "My lord, Gonggong Wei, when is this going to fall?" I can't wait for the excerpt here. ”

The official next to him shook his head, "Wait patiently, don't be in a hurry." ”

At this moment, a small insider trotted all the way, apologized through the crowd, walked lightly onto the plank road, quietly attached to the unannounced ear, and whispered something.

Wei Zhongxian opened his eyes violently, a fine light flashed under his eyes, he opened his mouth slightly, and made a hoarse voice: "Tianxiang cardamom? There is such a magical thing in the world. Is it a thousand households in Jinyi? ”

The little internal official bowed and said in a low voice: "Yes, Gonggong, the queen has issued an edict and ordered Qianhu to enter the palace quickly with Tianxiang Cardamom." ”

Wei Zhongxian snorted: "It's not to blame the queen mother, the Imperial Medical Bureau is helpless, Your Majesty's situation has not improved, and you are in a hurry, so you will get some gods and ghosts, and some people even tell me that looking for Taoist alchemy pills is simply looking for death."

Jinyi Wei Qianhu, the little ant actually gave birth to such a big mind, first block the will, and call that Qianhu to come to me, I want to see, is this Tianxiang cardamom so magical? ”

"Yes."

The little officer respectfully agreed, turned around and trotted all the way.

Wei Zhongxian sat quietly for a while, the fishing rod in his hand trembled, he grabbed it with both hands, and with great force, a big fish came out of the water.

The two little officials behind him were full of excitement, as if they had won the five million jackpot, and one of them screamed.

The officials on the shore also cheered in a low voice.

The fish flung over, and the little internal official hurriedly stepped forward, took off the hook, replaced it with bait, put the fish into the fish cage, and showed Wei Zhongxian a look, and then carefully hung it on the hook of the plank road.

Wei Zhongxian threw the fishing rod to the little internal official and asked lightly, "How many hours have they been here?" ”

"Lord Wang, Lord Li came here first, and he has been waiting for nearly three hours, and the rest of the adults have come one after another, most of them have been waiting for nearly two hours, and some have just come."

The little internal official said in a low voice: "The little dare to say more, these officials are such a big person, and they are like babies who have not been weaned, as soon as something goes wrong, they come to the factory to get an idea, as if they don't have a long brain, they will push everything to the factory father, they don't know how to feel sorry for the factory father, let you rest more." ”

Wei Zhongxian glanced at him, his expression was serious, but the corners of his mouth were imperceptibly hooked upward, and he hummed: "Mouthy!" Tell Wang Li and the others to wait for me in the side hall, and the others will put down the folds, what should people do. ”

The little internal official hurried to be.

Wei Zhongxian stood up, shook his robe, and strode towards the shore, and the officials rushed up in a swarm and called for his father-in-law in unison.

They all bent down respectfully, hugging Wei Zhongxian and walking out of the back garden.

After the adults left, a lot of subordinates poured out one after another to clean up the mess together.

As for Wei Zhongxian's words, someone had already spread them.

——

Standing at the door of his mansion, Qi Shan held a piece of yellow silk in his hand and paced back and forth unhurriedly.

Several lieutenants who had been following Qi Shan beside him looked straight at their teeth, and one of them couldn't help but say: "My lord, the will says that you should go to the palace as soon as possible, and the queen mother's side, I'm afraid I can't afford to delay." Why don't you hurry home and get your things into the palace? ”

As soon as he said that, he regretted it a little, how could Shangguan's affairs be worried about by his subordinates.

Moreover, the internal hierarchy of Jinyiwei is strict, and there may still be some affection between colleagues, but it is absolutely impossible between superiors and subordinates.

Several lieutenants next to him couldn't help but show a hint of sympathy.

The heart said that this kid has a big mouth, and he finally got into trouble.

If it was Qi Shan before, I'm afraid a big mouth is indispensable.

However, Qi Shan is much gentler now, even if he enjoys a superior official position, he subconsciously thinks that everyone is equal, what's wrong with saying a word? It's normal.

Qi Shan didn't think much about it, just waved his hand and said, "You don't understand, it's good to wait more, as soon as this will comes out, I'm afraid many people won't be able to sit still." So here, wait for one more person. ”

Several lieutenants looked at each other.

And at this moment, a fast horse galloped in.

The man on horseback turned over and dismounted without waiting for the horse to stop, and shouted: "Go and report quickly, there is something urgent to summon the Lord of Qishan Thousand Households at the age of nine thousand." ”

After finishing speaking, he threw the reins of the horse, and was about to rush to the Yamen of Fusi in Beizhen.

Qi Shan raised his hand and beckoned: "Come slowly, come slowly, I've been waiting for a long time, let's take a look at any tokens." ”

"Huh?"

That Zi looked at Qi Shan in disbelief, and the captains of the Jinyi Guards on the left and right had no opinions, but stared at him with a strange expression, knowing that this person must have expected him to come in advance, and he couldn't help but be surprised.

His expression was respectful for three points, and he quickly pulled the waist card from his waist, handed it over with both hands, bowed his head and said loudly: "There is an order for nine thousand years old, so that the Lord of Qishan Thousand Households will meet him quickly." ”

Qi Shan nodded, but the waist card looked at it briefly, and then said: "I am the person you are looking for." ”

He turned around and said hello, and said to the captains of the brocade guards: "Let you take half a day off, disband, it's nothing." By the way, call someone to my house to spread a message, and say that I have something important to do, and I may not go back tonight, so that the old lady does not have to worry. ”

"Yes, my lord." Several lieutenants answered in unison.

"Let's go."

After greeting him, Qi Shan turned over and got on the horse directly, regardless of whether he could keep up or not, his legs clamped the horse's belly, and he rushed out first.
