Regarding the verification, Ruyi handed it over to Brother Wang, and in the following days, Ruyi concentrated on preparing for Brother Wang's birthday banquet.

But before the birthday feast, there is also an important festival, that is, the Qinglong Festival, which is commonly known as the day when the second dragon rises in February. Since the beginning of Fuxi, "heavy agriculture and mulberry, ploughing the field", every year on February 2, it will be, "the queen mother sends rice, the royal driver ploughs", and takes care of one acre and three points of land. Later generations followed suit, and by the time of the Zhou Dynasty, it was implemented as a national policy.

Wei Xin took the report on the Qinglong Festival submitted by the ceremonial officer, and said with some worry, "Your Majesty, on the day of the Qinglong Festival, everything else is easy to say, but what should I do if this imperial lady sends food, I can't call the princess to go, right?" ”

Tian Yinqi's hand, which was originally writing, paused, and then continued to write without raising his head, but his handwriting was obviously a little impatient.

Wei Xin had no choice but to put the report on the side of the case.

At this time, the attendants from the outside world reported, "Lord Chun Yuyu asks to see you." ”

Tian Yinqi motioned for him to come in. Chun Yuqi walked in slowly and respectfully and politely saw Tian Yinqi.

Chun Yuqi saw that Tian Yinqi was painting and practicing calligraphy, so he walked in to take a look.

"The word "king" is really more and more vigorous and powerful, and this painting is getting better and better, look at this big bird flying in the sky, it is really majestic."

Tian Yinqi was a little helpless when he heard it, but he couldn't say anything.

Wei Xin snorted and laughed, "Lord Chun, the king painted it as an eagle." ”

"Look at my eyes, it's really old and useless." Chun Yuyu said and deliberately rubbed his eyes.

Tian Yinqi knew that this Lord Chun was a man who was accustomed to saying metaphors, and since he was lazy in government and pretended to be addicted to wine and fun, this Lord had persuaded himself countless times by metaphors. I'm afraid I'm going to talk about some metaphors again today.

"When I came in, I saw that there was also a big bird parked in the king's courtyard, and it didn't fly or sing all these days, I wonder if the king knows why?"

Tian Yinqi smiled slightly, it was really a metaphor again, but this time it was possible to relax the heart of Lord Chun, those corrupt officials who were corrupt and perverted the law, formed a party for personal gain, and the corrupt officials who fished the common people have basically been verified, and they can be cleared up just by waiting for the opportunity.

"If this bird doesn't fly, it will fly straight into the sky, and if this bird doesn't sing, it will shock the Chinese people." Tian Yinqi looked at Chun Yuqi with a smile and said.

Chun Yuyu was excited when he heard this, and the king finally listened to his advice, and said happily: "Just like the eagle painted by the king, show your majesty." ”

"Exactly."

After Chun Yu left, Tian Yinqi seemed to have made up his mind, and beckoned Wei Xin to say, "Go, go to Sun Bin's mansion, and bring the generous gift I asked you to prepare before." ”

When Wei Xin heard this, he immediately understood, "Well, don't worry." ”

Daguo in the east of the city, Sun Bin Mansion, flower hall in the front yard.

Sun Bin and Tian Yinqi were talking eloquently about the policy of governing the army and the strategy of the art of war. Sun Bin is a person who doesn't talk much, and he is a little wooden on weekdays. Only when it comes to the field he is familiar with will he be energetic and eloquent.

The two chatted for a long time and didn't get to the point, and Wei Xin was anxious to watch from the sidelines.

Su Ruiqing's belly was as big as a day because she was pregnant, so she only came out today and sat for a while before going back to the room to rest.

It wasn't until a starling in the flower hall was really bored that he screamed "croak" to interrupt the enthusiasm of the two.

Tian Yinqi explained his intention and brought the generous gift he had prepared.

"The gentleman is a little too polite, you have to ask Miss Yu about this kind of thing. We don't want to call the shots. Sun Bin said with a straight face.

"I know, of course, this is to be asked."

"I asked Rui Qing to ask Miss Yu about her tone. Jun Shang waited a moment. Sun Bin said that he was going to find Su Ruiqing.

"Madame is pregnant and has limited mobility, so I'll ask for it myself. If there is anything to say more clearly in person, I don't know what Mr. Sun thinks. Tian Yinqi said sincerely.

Although Sun Bin was upright, he did not study Confucianism, but he didn't have so many pedantic ideas, thinking that Tian Yinqi was quite reasonable, so he agreed, and sent an attendant to lead the way to Miss Yu's courtyard.

When they arrived at the gate of the courtyard, the attendant respectfully made a gesture of invitation, and then silently retreated.

When Tian Yinqi walked into the courtyard, he saw Yu Juanzhi wearing a lotus color long skirt with curly embroidery under the porch, looking virtuous and quiet. A magnolia tree in the yard is in full bloom. The two boxes shine brighter than flowers.

Tian Yin moved in unison, quietly walked over, and walked in to see that Yu Juanzhi was embroidering a magnolia picture under the moon.

Tian Yinqi's heart was warm, she had embroidered herself into the painting.

Yu Juan's embroidery was focused, and she didn't find any movement. Tian Yinqi looked at the small print on the right side again, is this a birthday gift for me? The heart is even softer.

"Did the girl embroider herself into the painting?" Tian Yinqi said with a smile.

This voice startled Yu Juanzhi.

"Why doesn't Qi Hou make a sound and stand behind it's scary." Yu Juanzhi smoothed his chest and said.

"Miss Juan is alright, right? I didn't expect it to scare you. ”

"Is there anything Qi Hou looking for me?" Yu Juan's blessing was blessed, and he saluted.

"Why is it called so raw, wasn't it Brother Tian who was called with Ruyi before?" Tian Yinqi asked.

"There is a difference between a monarch and a minister, not to mention that I am just a common man. Where can I climb the relatives of Brother Ueda. Yu Juanzhi said cautiously.

Tian Yinqi frowned, although Yu Juanzhi knew his identity before, he was not restrained, and he was still generous and polite. What's going on today? Tian Yinqi suddenly remembered what Ruyi said, could it be that today's courtship hit the girl's self-esteem?

Tian Yinqi hurriedly confessed: "Miss Juan, no matter what others say, you are as noble as this magnolia flower in my heart, and when I saw you for the first time, I felt that you were as beautiful and generous as a magnolia flower, and without losing your wind and bones, you competed to open in the cold wind of early spring." ”

Yu Juanzhi looked at Tian Yinqi in a daze, she didn't expect that she would still hear Tian Yinqi's confession in her life. It was something she couldn't have imagined. Yu Juanzhi didn't feel that her eyes were a little sour, and her eye circles were slightly red.

Tian Yinqi saw that Yu Juanzhi was about to cry, and he was even more helpless. "Sister Yu, why are you still crying? I can't see a girl's tears the most. Tell me if I said something wrong. Tian Yinqi was so busy that he stuffed his handkerchief to Yu Juanzhi.

Yu Juanzhi took the handkerchief with body temperature and pressed the corner of her eye, and burst into a smile.

"I'm so happy, it's the first time someone has complimented me like this." The corners of Yu Juan's mouth are affectionate, and a pair of autumn eyes are washed with tears, and the water is shining, which adds a bit of charm.

Tian Yinqi looked at this delicate but unpretentious woman and liked it even more, and asked casually, "Are you willing to marry me?" ”

Yu Juanzhi looked up in amazement and looked at Tian Yinqi with a pair of beautiful eyes shining brightly, "Childe, is this serious?" ”

"Well, would you like to?" Tian Yinqi replied gently, for fear of being rejected, and unconsciously had a little bit of demagogic taste.

"Of course I do." Yu Juanzhi bowed her head shyly and said.

Three days later, Concubine Qi Houna. Although it is not grand, it is better than lively. is also because she is the first lady in the harem, and she is quite valued.

Ruyi even regarded himself as half a matchmaker, complacent.

Tian Yinqi married Yu Juanzhi and was named Yu Ji. A few days ago, the ministers were still in the last chapter to ask the Marquis of Qi to choose a concubine, and at that time, the Marquis of Qi still refused the candidates recommended by the ministers on the grounds that he was still young and the court situation was unstable.

But within half a month, Qi Hou found a candidate by himself, and also married into the palace, what about the people who the elders want to stuff.

In the early days, all civil and military officials, ministers and elders began to do their best to persuade Tian Yinqi to choose more people to fill the harem, spread the branches and leaves, and insinuated accusations not to favor one person.

Tian Yinqi was upset when he heard this, and happened to watch Chun Yuqi dozing off on the side, Chun Yuqi was one of the few ministers who did not speak about the matter of choosing a concubine.

"Lord Chun, what do you think?" Tian Yinqi said by name.

"Although it is a big deal to spread the leaves, it is not in a hurry, but now the spring ploughing is imminent, and the Qinglong Festival is approaching. It's better to focus on the present. Chun Yuqi said tactfully, but he helped Tian Yinqi out of the siege very well.

As soon as the ministers heard this, the wind turned and began to discuss the various matters of the Green Dragon Festival.

Tian Yinqi breathed a sigh of relief, but he thought in his heart that the Qinglong Festival would definitely clean up this messy government affairs.

The sun rises and sets, and in a blink of an eye, it is the second day of February. The sky is cloudy, and it seems that it is about to rain for the first time of the year.

Tian Yinqi led all the civil and military officials to go to the suburban fields together, and personally planted grain with a hoe.

The civil and military officials also sweated in the fields with the Marquis of Qi.

It was almost noon, and Yu Ji came to the suburbs with a convoy of food deliveries. Distribute water and meals to everyone.

Tian Yinqi saw that the time was almost up, and asked Wei Xin to bring all the witnesses and evidence.

Before the civil and military officials understood what was going on, they saw a woman in a basket of clothes and a child with a yellow face and thin muscles. After inquiry, I learned that it was the people of Acheng, and after telling it, I learned that the people of Acheng lived a life that was worse than death. There are many exorbitant taxes and miscellaneous taxes, and the occupation of cultivated land is becoming less and less. And Dr. Ah Cheng only knows how to drink and have fun, fish and meat the people, and never cares about the life or death of the people.

"Bring Dr. Ah Cheng up." Tian Yinqi shouted sharply.

"The king spares his life." Doctor Ah Cheng trembled and kowtowed.

"Zhao Guo attacked Zhen Cheng, you don't care, Wei Guo captured Xue Cheng, you don't ask. Only know the fish and meat people. Why is there no one to say good things for you today, isn't there someone in the court every day who sings praises to you? Tian Yinqi said coldly, looking around at the reactions of the ministers.

How dare others make a noise, they all keep their heads low for fear of being implicated.

Tian Yinqi summoned Dr. Jimo again.

"I sent people to inspect Jimo, and found that the fields had been reclaimed, the people had enough food and clothing, and there was no accumulation of stranded government affairs in the government, and Jimo was stable and prosperous. But why do you speak ill of you every time? After Tian Yinqi finished speaking, he looked around, especially at the few people who usually made waves.

But at this time, no one dared to speak, and it was as silent as night.

"It's the courtier's stupidity." Dr. Jimo replied.

"It's that you won't curry favor with those people to seek fame, and it's also the way you don't understand bribes and promotions." Tian Yinqi finished speaking word by word.

The others knelt on their knees in unison. "The king is angry."

"How do you tell me to calm my anger, tell me yourself, how many people have not accepted bribes from Dr. Ah Cheng?" Tian Yinqi roared angrily.
