"Daddy, Brother Yang, come and see, it's so snowy—"

A teenage girl ran in front of her, and climbed the city tower of Juyong Pass in one breath, even if there was goose feather snow in the sky, next to each battlement on the city tower, there was still a "Jingnan Army" soldier.

"Come on, go and watch some Xiang'er, don't let that girl run wild."

Guo Mo was speechless, on this snowy day, isn't it good to hide in the room and roast the fire?

If you have to run out to see the snow, you still have to run to Juyong Pass, which is twenty miles away.

It was His Majesty Guo Mo, the current emperor of the Great Song Dynasty, who braved the snow to climb the mountain, with his five apprentices Yang Guo and his baby daughter Guo Xiang.

……

After Guo Mo returned to Bianliang City, he quickly entered his role, to be an emperor, but there was no stipulation of what it must be like.

Guo Mo felt that as long as he was not like those unscrupulous monarchs, even if he was a mediocre monarch, the current Great Song Dynasty would move forward step by step.

Back in the harem, it's really a big family.

Guo Mo plus his three daughters-in-law Huang Rong, Li Mochou and Murong Yan, and six sons next to him, Zhao Simo, Guo Yi, Guo Xiao, Guo Yao, Guo Xun and the youngest Guo Shi.

The two little apprentices are also there, that is, twelve-year-old Yang Guo and ten-year-old Yeluqi, these two apprentices are undoubtedly much more talented in martial arts than the four apprentices in front of them.

It's just that he is still young now, and his real combat power is still the first to recommend the second apprentice Wu Nantian.

Of course, there are two girls, a sixteen-year-old Xiaolongnu and a ten-year-old Guo Xiang, who stand together in two completely different styles.

The little dragon girl still likes to be dressed in white, I haven't seen her for more than two years, and she has completely grown into a big girl, sixteen years old, slim, and still so unsmiling.

With so many people, it is no longer possible to sit at a table.

Guo Mo and Huang Rong sat with several older children, such as Zhao Simo, Guo Yi, Guo Xiang, Yang Guo and Ye Luqi.

Li Mochou and Murong Yan went to another table to take care of a few small ones.

The little dragon girl sat there quietly eating, looking at the children in front of her who couldn't sit still, which made her smile from time to time.

"Brother Mo, a few days ago, someone from the Luo Clan Ghost Country sent a message saying that their country lord Ande is now seriously ill, and I am afraid that he will not be able to last a few months."

"They want Simo to go back and inherit the position of the lord of the Luo Clan Ghost Country at the right time. The Emperor Taishang hasn't made a decision yet, let me wait until you come back, you see......"

At the banquet, Huang Rong glanced at Zhao Simo next to her and preached with Guo Mo.

Zhao Simo was sent to Peach Blossom Island to study, and now it has been several years, especially in the past two years, Huang Rong takes him almost every day, as if he is out of the house.

Zhao Simo, who has passed his eleventh birthday, is more and more similar to his mother An Ling'er the older he gets, with a foreign bloodline, and his whole temperament is very unique.

He listened to Huang Rong talk about his body, silently put down the fast son in his hand, lowered his head slightly, but his eyes looked at his father from time to time.

After so many years, this son still has an inexplicable strangeness to Guo Mo, in fact, not only him, even Guo Mo's other children are quite unfamiliar with his father, except for the eccentric little Guo Xiang.

"This is a big deal, and Simo must go back, but he is still so young, it is too weak to deal with a country."

The people of Luo's ghost country are fierce, and the current lord of the country, Ande, was also rebelled by his subordinates back then, and An Linger was even planted with "Golden Cicada Gu Poison", so something indescribable happened between him and Guo Mo.

"That's it, I will ask Senior Brother Zhu Ziliu to go back with Simo, with his assistant, I believe Simo's situation should be better."

"In addition, we can send thirty good players from the 'brocade', as long as we can protect Simo's safety, even if something unexpected happens, we can turn evil into good fortune and make a comeback."

After all, it is his own son, Guo Mo, who is a father, at least has to protect his son's life, as for the army, he believes that the eight thousand iron horses under the command of Elder Shi are enough.

It was originally trained by the "Dunwu Army", and naturally there were also chess pieces inserted or transformed by the "Dunwu Army", which may be able to help when it is critical.

"Daddy, the kid doesn't want to leave you—"

Zhao Simo was sitting opposite Guo Mo, and when he heard his father's words, the eleven-year-old could already understand his father's arrangement, and he was completely thinking about himself.

When he was five years old, Zhao Simo set foot on the land of the Great Song Dynasty, and now more than six years have passed, and the appearance of his mother An Ling'er is already a little ambiguous in his memory.

If he could, he would rather stay here forever with his younger siblings.

Although I didn't see my dad a lot of times or for a lot of time, I could often hear about my father's deeds.

Every time he hears it, Zhao Simo's heart is full of happiness and pride, it is a son's instinctive worship of his father.

And Guo Mo's book "Romance of the Gods", Zhao Simo, who has been literate for many years, has long been unaware of how many times he has read it.

He was very curious about how his father came up with so many wonderful characters and stories, but Guo Yao's kid always said that he was the "Lei Zhenzi" in the book, which made the little brothers very unhappy.

"Okay, Simo, you have grown up, and now you have a certain foundation for learning, this time you go back and bring more books, you need to know that learning is like sailing against the current, if you don't advance, you will retreat."

"I heard that your kung fu practice is also good, the 'Eight Methods of the Desert' has been practiced to the third level, let's be with my father these days, and when Zhu Zhifu comes, you will go back with him."

More than three years ago, when the Great Song Dynasty had just destroyed the Jin Kingdom, Zhu Ziliu came to Bianliang with Master Yideng to find Guo Mo, and Master Yideng expressed his willingness to recommend apprentices.

Guo Mo was employing people, and he directly gave Zhu Ziliu a position to the prefect of Defu, which was done for more than three years, and the evaluation of the officials was on the top every year.

Zhu Ziliu used to be the prime minister of Dali Kingdom, and it is naturally not a problem to be in charge of the land of Yifu, and now his son Zhao Simo wants to go back to take over the Luo Ghost Country, Guo Mo first thought of Zhu Ziliu.

He is a native of Dali, and he is a neighbor of the Luo ghost country, and he also has certain experience and experience in dealing with affairs between various tribes.

In addition, Zhu Ziliu is not a simple literati, he is also a proper first-class master, in addition to helping Zhao Simo deal with government affairs, he is also a strong and powerful guard when necessary.

At a meal, because of Zhao Simo's matter, everyone was a little depressed.

Especially between the children, they have been together for more than six years, and they are a little reluctant to know that this brother is going to go on a long trip, and they don't know when and what month they will come back.

On the second day, Guo Mo ordered people to pay a visit to Xue Ji, the official who was sick, with heavy gifts.

Guo Mo went to Weifu, only brought four "brocade clothes", and drove a car, with Guo Mo's gifts on it, half of which were special products brought by Ningxia.

When he arrived at Xue Ji's mansion, the door was not low, and the mansion of this important minister was arranged by Guo Mo personally, anyway, there were not a few deep mansion compounds received from the ministers of the Dajin King.

Guo Mo ordered someone to hand over his prayer post.

"Guo Mo? Why is it so familiar? ”

The disciples of the Xue Mansion didn't know Guo Mo, but they knew the four behind Guo Mo, to be precise, they knew their brocade clothes and the Yanling knife at their waists.

"Please, later, I'll go and tell my master-"

Menzi didn't dare to delay, and trotted inside to report the news.

It didn't take long for me to hear the sound of footsteps coming from inside.

"Hurry up and open the middle door—"

"Zhiyaya-" The middle door of the Xue Mansion was opened, and two young people walked out one after the other, one in his thirties, who was actually dressed in official clothes, and looked like a person from the Hanlin Academy.

Hanlin Academy, an official institution that was only established during the Tang Dynasty.

At the beginning of its establishment, it was not a formal official office, but a group of institutions with artistic talents, such as literature, scriptures, divination, medicine, monks, calligraphy and painting, and other specialized institutions.

The important function of this group of people was to accompany the emperor to play, so at that time, the Hanlin Academy was located in the palace and was an internal court institution.

What about the Hanlin Academy in the Song Dynasty?

In a certain sense, the Hanlin Yuan of the Song Dynasty followed the Tang system, but compared with the informal official offices of the Tang Dynasty, the Hanlin Yuan of the Song Dynasty was a serious 800 official office and belonged to the Inner Service Province.

The functions of the Song Hanlin Academy are similar to those of the Tang Dynasty, and they are in charge of paintings, chess, piano courtyards, etc., which are dedicated to the entertainment of the inner court.

The other person, who was younger, was not yet twenty years old, dressed in the fashionable samurai uniform, half a head taller than the thirty-something official.

"I don't know...... That, I welcome you late, and please forgive me—"

The official in his thirties was holding the greeting note handed in by Guo Mo, and he suddenly remembered that Guo Mo's trip was so much, and he didn't know what to call it for a while.

And the young man who was less than twenty years old behind him, seeing Guo Mo, his eyes were full of reverence, and when he saw the four "brocade clothes" behind Guo Mo, he was even more full of envy.

"You are? ——”

Except for the last dynasty, or Xue Ji personally went to the palace to visit, Guo Mo and Xue Ji rarely met, and Guo Mo really never went to Xue Ji's mansion, let alone his family.

"In Xia Xue Point, he is the eldest son of Xue Mansion, and now he works in the Hanlin Academy, and he is good at writing two strokes on weekdays. This is the fourth brother named Xue Dark, who has nothing to do all day long, dancing with guns and sticks, and is still a white body for the time being. ”

"Big brother, I have already applied for the 'martial arts' exam this year, and the results will come out in these two days, and I will not be in vain soon."

The young man who followed behind heard the eldest brother say that he had "nothing to do", and he forgot the identity of the person in front of him, so he unconsciously defended himself to the eldest brother.

"Oh, you also participated in martial arts? Can I pass the exam? ”

Seeing that the fourth son of the old Xue family actually participated in this year's martial arts, Guo Mo was very surprised, but when he thought of Zhao Chengyu of Zhao Ru's family, he was slightly relieved.

Guo Mo was born in martial arts, and now the Great Song Dynasty is even more martial arts, and martial arts is held every two years to continuously send talents to the army.

"That...... In the lower bow horse riding and shooting is acceptable, but the strength is slightly weaker, and the horse battle lost to the opponent, only to achieve the fifth place. However, my results in strategy are still good, and I think the comprehensive results will definitely be among the best. ”

Talking to Guo Mo, this young man named Xue Dian is still a little shy, but he is still full of confidence in his martial arts achievements.

"Haha, okay, when your final results come out, go find me, and I'll arrange your affairs personally."

Guo Mo inexplicably fell in love with this kid, when he was twenty years old, the whole person was full of vitality, like their group of people back then.

"That...... Actually, I want to ......"

"Okay, I said fourth, why don't you know etiquette so much? Distinguished guests, please come with me. ”

Seeing that the fourth brother still wanted to say, Xue Dian was afraid that he didn't have a door, so he hurriedly stopped him and let Guo Mo go to the house.

The group didn't get to the hall, but walked to the backyard, it seems that Lao Xue Ji's illness is really serious.

Sure enough, Guo Mo saw him in Xue Ji's bedroom.

As soon as he saw Guo Mo come in, Lao Xue struggled and wanted to get off the bed.

"Mr. Xue, you lie down and don't move-"

Guo Mo stepped forward with a brisk step, reached out and held Xue Ji's hand to stop him.

"Your Majesty, the old ministers, the old ministers are useless, and they can't even go out to greet Your Majesty."

Guo Mo didn't speak, but put his two fingers on Xue Ji's pulse, closed his eyes slightly, and diagnosed Xue Ji.

Guo Mo, who was born in Chinese, is not separated from literature and history, and has a certain understanding of the history of the Song Dynasty.

Although he couldn't remember how long this Xue Ji lived, he knew that in real history, after the death of Emperor Ningzong, that is, Guo Mo's father, Xue Ji was still in the court for more than ten years.

From this point of view, this old man shouldn't have left so early, could it be that his arrival would also change the fate of Old Xue Ji?

"Your Majesty, don't bother, the imperial doctor has also come, saying that the old minister's body is afraid that he can't stand it, he is old and decrepit, it seems that he is really going to find Old Man Wei."

Seeing that Guo Mo was treating himself, Xue Ji was very moved, but he seemed to have seen life and death, lying there again, and said calmly.

"Mr. Xue, you are caused by three points of illness and seven points of fatigue, if you cultivate and condition properly, you should have more than ten years of life."

After Guo Mo finished the examination, he found that Lao Xue Ji actually didn't have any major problems, but he was overworked.

It suddenly occurred to me that the territory of the Great Song Dynasty has doubled compared to ten years ago?

Food, population, commerce, economy, and so on can all be taken slowly and slowly recovered, but the officials in these various places cannot wait for a moment.

Moreover, the local parent officials that Guo Mo needs are different from the original requirements of the Great Song Dynasty, and it can be said that the vast majority of officials need to be re-selected, trained, and assessed.

These things fell to a large extent on the heads of the officials, and Xue Ji, the secretary of the ministry, naturally bore the brunt.

"Your Majesty, are you telling the truth? ……”

Old Xue Ji didn't react much, he only thought he was comforting himself for Guo Mo's words, but Xue Dian and Xue Dian who were standing on the side were very excited.

Especially the fourth Xue Dian, he originally worshiped Guo Mo like a god, although what Guo Mo said was very different from the diagnosis of those imperial doctors, but he would rather believe what Guo Mo said.

"Haha, why don't you believe me? You don't joke, I said that Mr. Xue can live for another ten years, even if the king of Hades comes, he can't rob me of people. ”

After Guo Mo finished speaking, he gently flipped Xue Ji over and let him lie directly on the bed.

The practice of "One Yang Finger" of Dark Luck mobilizes the innate true qi in the body, and gently moves between the acupoints on Xue Ji's body with the method of "soothing acupoints".

From the top of the head, to the sun, the wind pool, from the shoulder well, the big tree to the sun, I swam three times.

Lao Xue Ji felt that there was no Shu Tai before, and there seemed to be a warm current between his lower abdomen.

"Mr. Xue, this is indeed not a serious illness, and you don't need to close the doors and windows to death, but you should ventilate it from time to time."

"The sun is still too hot during the day, and in the early morning and evening, you can take a walk around the courtyard of the house."

"This time, I brought something from Ningxia and soaked it in hot boiled water to drink, which can nourish the liver and kidneys and benefit the eyes."

"In addition, Mr. can't always sit or lie down, let Mr. Zhao come over again, when I was in Luoyang, I once implemented a set of health preservation 'Quanzhen Dao Song', it seems that it should be implemented throughout the Great Song Dynasty."

When Xue Ji sat up again, he found that his spirit was much better, his hands and feet also had some strength, and he actually felt hungry in his stomach.

"Haha, Mr. Xue, I don't know if I have this mouth, can I have lunch at Mr.'s place?"

Seeing Xue Ji's appearance, Guo Mo guessed that what he did just now still worked, so he spoke.

"Your Majesty can have a meal here with the old minister, that is the blessing of the old minister's mansion, a little, you quickly go to the kitchen and prepare it, make a few delicious dishes and send them to the living room."

"Your Majesty, let Darker take you to the living room first, let Lao Chen change his clothes, wash up and then go to eat with you."

Guo Mo readily agreed, he didn't really want to come to Xue's Mansion for a meal, he originally wanted to discuss some things with Xue Ji, and it was also his duty to personally diagnose and treat this old minister.

In the living room of Xue Ji's mansion, there are very few guests who usually come, especially after Guo Mo ascended the throne, old Xue Ji is even more cautious in his words and deeds.

In the eyes of others, he is an important minister of the two dynasties, especially in this new Hongwu dynasty, and he is the first of the hundred officials.

Nowadays, the composition of the officials of the Great Song Dynasty is quite complicated, and they are trying their best to approach and tie up with this head of a hundred officials.

It's a pity that Xue Ji was meticulous when he was out working, and when he returned home, he simply closed the door and thanked the guests, and the only people who could walk into the door of Xue's house were often those familiar "cabinet" people.

He is a typical "Jia Xu" type character, but if there is a little thing that endangers himself or his family, he would rather give up the interests that may exist than never touch it.

"Mr. Xue, this is what Fang Caizhen said, I brought a kind of health ingredients from Ningxia to soak in water, you can taste it first."

When Xue Ji came to his living room, Guo Mo was already sitting down to serve tea under the greetings of Xue Dian and Xue Di.

However, Guo Mo asked people to bring over a few empty teacups, and even asked for a pot of boiling water, so that a "brocade clothes" could take out something from the gifts he brought.

Take an appropriate amount, soak it directly in a teapot filled with boiling water, and then pour the water in the teapot into the teacup.

"Your Majesty, this tea has a hint of bitterness at the beginning, but then it has a surging sweetness, what is this?"

Xue took half a sip very shallowly, carefully smacking the taste.

"Haha, Mr. Xue is really a gentleman in tea, this thing can also be called tea, and it can also be used to make wine, cook porridge, stew, etc."

"The name of this thing is wolfberry, it is a medicinal material, but also a food, it can be planted everywhere in the Great Song Dynasty, but especially in Ningxia, the medicinal effect is the best."

There is not much time, four cold and four hot eight dishes are served, Xue Ji knows that Guo Mo is frugal and does not like extravagance and waste, and he Xue Ji is a low-key person, and what is served is naturally home-cooked dishes.

Guo Mo really ate with relish.

"I remember that your eldest brother said that your name is Xue Dark?"

Because Xue Ji was still sick, Guo Mo didn't let people serve wine, and everyone was drinking tea, or the wolfberry water brewed just now.

"Back to Your Majesty, it is Xue Dian who has heard a lot about His Majesty's deeds since he was a child, and this time I want to follow in the footsteps of His Majesty back then, to be able to enter the military camp of the Great Song Dynasty, and become a hero who defends the territory of the Great Song Dynasty."

"Haha, it's good, it's good for young people to have this ambition, especially the children of our officials, they should practice martial arts to strengthen their bodies, instead of turning themselves into gentlemen."

"Just in front of the Xue Mansion, you seem to have something to say, but you were interrupted by your eldest brother, can you say it now?"

Guo Mo originally came to the door today, just to discuss something with Xue Ji, and it was a pure accident when he met his two sons.

"This, Your Majesty, in fact, the kid has liked to practice martial arts since he was a child, but he couldn't meet a famous teacher for guidance, so he followed a few veterans who had retired from the army in the mansion to practice."

"Now that the kid has also participated in the martial arts, it is not surprising that the comprehensive results should be able to rank in the top five."

"However, I am fortunate to have met Your Majesty today, and the boy wants to ...... I would like to ask you for a favor......"

Xue Dian's voice became lower and lower, and he actually wanted to discuss conditions with Guo Mo.

Guo Mo suddenly remembered that when he first entered the harem yesterday, Xiao Guo Xiang also made a request to himself, and he agreed to it in a vague way, as if he didn't listen to what the little girl said in the end.

Now, this Xue Dian in front of him also has to make a request?

"Shut up! Don't be rude! Your Majesty, don't listen to this kid's nonsense, since this kid likes to dance with guns and sticks, now my Great Song Dynasty advocates martial arts and strong military strength, if he can really go to high school, the old minister will fully support him. ”

"However, the old minister did not allow him to ask for any 'favor' in front of His Majesty with the face of the old minister."

Guo Mo was still thinking about what happened to Xiao Guo Xiang yesterday, and the old Xue Ji on the side was angry and reprimanded his son fiercely.

Xue Dian lowered his head helplessly, but he couldn't hide the loss in his heart.

"Haha, Mr. Xue, why do you bother? The fourth child of your family, I just like it, let's listen to what he wants, if it is not some violation of discipline and law, it is not a big deal for me to simply fulfill him. ”

After all, Xue Ji is an important minister of the two dynasties, and he is a minister who has supported him for many years, and if he can give his son a grace, of course Guo Mo will not be stingy.

"Your Majesty, boy...... The kid wants to get into the 'brocade'. ”

Xue Dian still said what he thought deep in his heart.

"Jinyi" is a special existence, it is not an army, it is not even an institution, it is more like Guo Mo's personal department.

But he can accept Guo Mo's personal teaching and guidance, and in the face of Guo Mo, he has a special title - "teacher".

It's a pity that since the establishment of "Jinyi", there has never been an expansion of recruitment, and it seems that except for the leaders of "Jinyi" who have come in and out, there has not been a single member.

"Haha, what should I do, if you just want to enter the 'brocade', I can fully promise you this matter."

"Well, won't the results of the martial arts come out in two days? If you really make it to the top five, I will allow you to enter the 'brocade', so I will spend more time with your father at home these days." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty—no, thank you, Teacher—"

Hahaha, Guo Mo laughed loudly, he didn't expect that the old Xue Ji, who had been cautious all his life, would actually give birth to such a lovely son.

"Your Majesty, you came to the minister's house today, not just to visit the minister, right?"

The old man is old, the horse is cunning, Lao Xue Ji can say that the eyelashes are empty, seeing that Guo Mo is going to the house to diagnose the disease, and he wants to eat here, and he also gave his son grace in front of himself.

If he couldn't see that Guo Mo had something to talk about, then Old Xue Ji would have been in the officialdom for all these years.

"Your Majesty, go down and see if the soup in the kitchen is ready, Fourth Brother, you can go with me-"

When the boss Xue Dian heard his father's words, he knew that the two of them might have something to discuss, so he hurriedly stood up and took away Xue Dian who looked confused.

"Mr. Xue's eyes are like torches, this time Mr. fell ill, which really caught me and my father a little off guard, after my diagnosis, Mr. actually became ill because of overwork."

"It seems that on weekdays, I and my father still don't care enough about Mr., I have the heart to transfer a person into the Ministry of Officials, and I will be promoted to the Ministry of Officials, and Mr. Fuzuo will take care of the Ministry of Officials, what do you think?"

Guo Mo asked tentatively.

"Hehe, Your Majesty is a man of great talent, how can he learn to figure out people's hearts, but you have an arrangement, the old minister will definitely cooperate. I wonder who Your Majesty means? ”

"Yelu Chucai—"

……

Guo Mo's days in Bianliang City were always full of all kinds of busyness, and he had to adapt to them.

arranged for Zhu Ziliu to lead thirty "brocade clothes" to accompany Zhao Simo to Luo's ghost country, and the leader of the "brocade clothes" was Luo Qi from Luoyang.

Thirty "brocades", including eight third-rate players, including Luo Qi, Guo Mo can be regarded as making "brocade" hurt his muscles and bones.

Old Xue Ji's son Xue Dark, the final result was the third place in martial arts, and he entered the "Jinyi" as he wished, but as the youngest person with both qualifications and age, he still received special "preferential treatment" from the old "Jinyi".

This is all an internal matter of "Jinyi", Guo Mo, a teacher, naturally can't say much, as long as Xue Ji can learn things in "Jinyi" and stay comfortable, he can be regarded as worthy of old Xue Ji.

Yelu Chucai successfully entered the Ministry of Officials and became a waiter of the Ministry of Officials, and the eight-sided exquisite Yelu Chucai completely got rid of Lao Xue Ji's heavy official duties.

Summer goes to autumn, autumn goes to winter solstice, and I heard that some places in the north have begun to snow.

On this day, Guo Mojing was very thoughtful, and suddenly wanted to go to Zhongdu City in advance, because the eldest brother Guo Jing came to write, and everything had been prepared in advance.

"Brother Mo, if you want to go to Zhongdu, I can't stop you, but this time you can't go by yourself, bring the second sister with you, Xun'er will stay here, and I will take care of it myself."

For military affairs, Guo Mo's harem people have never interfered, and they always support them unconditionally.

"Okay."

Seeing the hot eyes of the third girl, Guo Mo knew that if he didn't agree to this condition, he might not be able to explain.

"Daddy, Daddy, I'm going with you—"

Before leaving, Xiao Guo Xiang actually ran out of the harem, followed by the twelve-year-old Yang Guo, and the two of them actually carried a small burden on their backs?

"Daddy, you promised me, no matter what I asked, you would meet me, now I will say my request-take me and Brother Yang to Zhongdu together-"

As a result, in Guo Mo's team going north, in addition to the 170 "brocade clothes", behind Guo Mo and Li Mochou, there were two more small followers.

Young eagles always have to soar in the sky, especially Guo Xiang and Yang Guo, Guo Mo has special feelings for them.

I hope that this time I went north, these two elementary schools can have new growth and insight......
