Although the empress said so, Narcissus still felt a little uncomfortable, 10 million taels, just give it? And he didn't send anyone to stare at him afterwards, and His Majesty trusted Wang Xiaolai's bastard too much.

"Speaking of which, narcissus."

"The minister is here." Narcissus turned around and hugged her fists.

The empress tapped the table with her fingers and said, "In a few days, it's a summer performance, I heard Lu Gong say that Xiao Laizi is also going to participate in this summer performance?" There is no such thing. ”

Narcissus told the truth: "It is true. ”

With a snap, the empress snapped her fingers: "It just so happens that I don't have anything to do these days, so I might as well go and see how it is." ”

"Your Majesty, where is Liu Xiangguo?"

"Let's make him uncomfortable first, and when the time comes, I will naturally summon him." As she spoke, the empress stood up and walked towards the outside of the imperial study, stopped at the door, took a deep breath, and looked at the scene outside the imperial study in a daze.

···

After coming out of the imperial study, until now, Liu Maolin was not in any state, his head was cranky, and he almost fell down when he walked.

"Old Xiangguo."

At this moment, there was a shout from behind him, and Liu Maolin, who heard the voice, hurriedly turned his head, and saw that it was Zhao Liwen, the chief eunuch in charge of the twelve rooms, so he hurriedly sighed and hugged his hands: "Zhao Weng, it's you." ”

Zhao Liwen waved his hand lightly, came to the front, walked with Liu Maolin, and said: "Old Xiangguo, I see that your face is very ugly, is something wrong?" ”

When Liu Maolin heard this, he sighed, looked left and right, and told Zhao Liwen about the matter.

Including his support for Fan Lin, the empress didn't care much about his affairs.

Zhao Liwen smiled after hearing this, and patted Liu Maolin on the shoulder: "Old Xiangguo doesn't need to think about it, Your Majesty, she is just angry that you didn't take the initiative to mention this matter to her." ”

"Alas, the old man has only recently figured it out, I knew it was so, and it would have been nice if I had explained it directly." Liu Maolin regretted not being at the beginning.

Zhao Liwen waved his hand and said: "It's okay old Xiangguo, Your Majesty is an old slave who grew up watching from a young age, for Your Majesty's temperament, the old slave knows a little, the current Your Majesty is angry, it is better to put this matter aside for the time being, and when Your Majesty is angry, when you are happy, I will open my heart to you." ”

Liu Maolin hissed: "Then when will Your Majesty be happy, and how can you be happy?" ”

Zhao Liwen shook his head: "This, it's up to Lao Xiangguo to figure it out for himself." ”

As he spoke, leaving Liu Maolin stunned, Zhao Liwen strode away.

"To please Your Majesty?" Liu Maolin muttered to himself.

It's easy to say, but how can you make Your Majesty happy?

···

About 100 miles south of Daxing City, there is a basin surrounded by mountains, which is the venue for this summer's performance.

A total of 84,000 guards of the royal city, except for the 30,000 necessary to defend the city, the remaining 54,000 people all came here.

As the flag officer of the Chinese army, Wang Xiaolai and Chu Feng and their comrades followed on horseback all the way.

They were the first to survey the terrain and prepare for the work.

"Master Hou, all the terrain has been reconnoitred, and it has been confirmed that all the beasts that pose a threat to the soldiers have been expelled, and the drill can start at any time."

Flag officer Chu Feng went to Lu Gongyou to the front road.

Lu Gongyou snorted and shouted, "Wang Xiaolai." ”

Wang Xiaolai, who was standing behind Lu Gongyou, sighed and asked stupidly, "What's wrong?" ”

"With you leading the team, out of this valley all the way to the north, to welcome His Majesty's dragon drive."

Wang Xiaolai was surprised: "Your Majesty is here too?" ”

Lu Gongyou nodded: "Go quickly." ”

"Well, I know, I know."

Turned over and got on his horse, led a team of elite cavalry, and walked all the way north along the royal road, about thirty or forty miles, and saw the gongs and drums in front of him, and countless Yulin troops surrounded by dragons.

Seeing this, Wang Xiaolai dismounted and waved his hand, signaling the cavalry to spread out on both sides.

When Long Yuan arrived, Wang Xiaolai led the horse and walked out, straightened his expression, and shouted decently: "Flag official Wang Xiaolai, waiting for Your Majesty." ”

Hearing Wang Xiaolai's voice, the empress of the dragon chariot was happy, and as she spoke, she poked her head out of the dragon chariot: "Xiao Laizi, who is shouting so loudly to?" ”

After saying a word, the empress also came out, seeing the empress, Wang Xiaolai ran up with a smile at the time, the Yulin soldiers were all internal guards, who didn't know the relationship between the empress and Wang Xiaolai, and they didn't stop it at that time, so they came to Wang Xiaolai.

"Your Majesty, look at what you said, why do you shout so loudly, I was born with a loud voice." Wang Xiaolai said with a hippie smile.

The empress pursed her lips speechlessly, and said to the narcissus who was driving: "Give him the horsewhip." ”

With a snap, Wang Xiaolai caught the whip.

The empress said: "I haven't touched the carriage for more than ten days, do you still know how to drive?" ”

Wang Xiaolai sighed and boasted: "As long as I learn something, I haven't forgotten it?" ”

So saying, he climbed into the carriage.

The dragon chariot was a little tall, Wang Xiaolai didn't pay attention, his foot slipped, and he fell down.

Empress: "···"

Embarrassed to get up, Wang Xiaolai sneered: "What, mistakes, mistakes." ”

As he spoke, a small yellow door ran up next to him, lay on the ground, and said, "Lord Wang, please get in the car." ”

Wang Xiaolai stepped on the back of the little yellow door and got into the car in disgrace.

"Drive."

shouted, the team continued to move forward, and the empress also pulled the curtain of the dragon chariot on the car, hung it on the side corner, sat there, put her arms on her knees, and said, "Na Xiao Laizi, how about doing things under Lu Gong?" ”

Wang Xiaolai sighed: "Your Majesty, you don't know how I've been doing it these days, I know it's wrong, why don't you change me to another place, it's boring." ”

The empress pouted: "Come on, I really don't dare to release you, otherwise you will cause trouble for me again." ”

Narcissus was still beside him and said, "Your Majesty, don't pay attention to him, he just has nothing to do." ”

"Narcissus, you can dismantle my platform, right?" Wang Xiaolai glared back.

Narcissus raised his eyebrows: "Got an opinion?" ”

Wang Xiaolai immediately coaxed: "No, no, no." ”

The empress also nodded herself: "What Narcissus said is that you have to let someone discipline you well, and I see that Lu Gong is a very suitable person." ”

The empress said so, what else could Wang Xiaolai say, sighed, could only accept his fate, and kept muttering what kind of world is this.

walked all the way to the location of Xia Yan, and after arriving, Lu Gongyou had already led people to wait, saw Long Yuan, led people up, hugged his fists, and shouted: "Minister, Lu Gongyou, I have seen Your Majesty." ”

The Empress of Long Yuan hurriedly got up and said with a smile: "Duke Lu, please get up, please get up." ”

Lu Gongyou stood up, looked at his mentor Eight Sages King, oh sighed, and hugged his fist at the Eight Sages King: "Lord Wang, you are also here." ”

The Eight Sages King snorted: "It's rare to perform in Xia, so naturally I want to come over and take a look at the situation." ”

"Your Majesty, Lord Wang, please."

Say please, Lu Gongyou made a gesture.

The empress and the eight wise kings got out of the car.

When he turned around and saw that Wang Xiaolai was still on the wheel, Lu Gongyou frowned and said, "Wang Xiaolai, you haven't returned to the team yet?" ”

"This is coming, this is coming."

glanced at the empress again, hoping that Wang Xiaolai, who hoped that the empress would say two good words to herself, was finally disappointed, and the empress deliberately avoided herself.

Frowned, led by Chu Feng, Wang Xiaolai went to the team assigned to him.

With the sound of a drum, more than 50,000 soldiers on both sides, half dressed in red and half in black, dispersed in batches and dived into the deep mountains and forests one after another.

"Your Majesty, these are the two generals of this summer performance, Lian Tong, Wei Lan."

took the empress to the viewing platform, and on the stage, there were two captains wearing red and black, and Lu Gongyou introduced the empress and the Eight Sages King.

When the two of them saw the empress, they both clasped their fists and bowed, and said, "Your Majesty, you can't salute if you are in armor." ”

The empress smiled and raised her hand to indicate that it was okay, and looked at the two of them: "In the past, summer performances were carried out on flat ground, but now in the mountain basin, can the two generals be sure?" ”

The two looked at each other and stomped their feet: "Your Majesty, rest assured, the last general will not be dishonored." ”

The empress nodded in satisfaction, standing on the towering viewing platform, she could clearly see all the places in the entire summer performance scene.

"In that case, then I'll keep my eyes open and watch the two generals perform."

"Yes."

As they spoke, the two stepped down from the viewing platform and returned to their own teams.
