April 13.

Not for a moment.

Cuiyun County Ya.

Qiu Buwei didn't sleep all night, sitting in the public court with two dark circles under his eyes, as the parent official of Cuiyun County, he was more nervous than anyone else.

Now he no longer cares about his career, as long as he can spend this day safely, he is ready to go to the temple to burn incense and worship the Buddha.

The officials under the hall stood solemnly on both sides with water and fire sticks in their hands, but there was no one in the hall.

But the outside of the hall has been surrounded by the people of Cuiyun County.

Qiu Buwei wanted to keep a low profile, so he did not post a notice. But I don't know who leaked the news, just after noon, the people of Cuiyun County gathered in front of the county government one after another.

The opening time was less than three minutes, but now it is not a minute, and neither the plaintiff nor the defendant has appeared in the court.

This is undoubtedly good news for Qiu Buwei, and he even hopes that the two sides will never appear in Cuiyun County.

When Qiu Buwei was feeling worried, he suddenly saw that the crowd watching outside the yamen seemed to be separated by an invisible force, leaving a wide passage to come out. Everyone looked scared, but there was a hint of excitement in their eyes.

Then a eunuch appeared in front of the passage with a whisk in his hand, walked to the county yamen, and screamed: "King Qi has arrived." ”

As a shrill voice sounded, a purple luxurious carriage slowly drove towards the county office.

The carriage was slow, but it gave everyone an unprecedented sense of oppression.

The whole county government became silent, and everyone stared at the carriage in amazement.

Qiu Buwei was almost frightened, hurriedly got up, stumbled to the front of the county yamen, settled down, and said respectfully: "Your Majesty greets His Royal Highness." ”

The eunuch walked to the carriage, set up the stool, and then lifted the curtain, and the eldest prince Zhou Yu stepped out of the carriage.

Zhou Yu is very heroic and imposing, and his tall body seems to stand out from the crowd. He looked around, and everyone lowered their heads, as if they didn't dare to make contact with him.

Finally, Zhou Yu looked at Qiu Buwei, slowly walked in front of him, and said with a smile: "Qiu County Order." ”

Qiu Buwei's body was lowered, and he hurriedly replied: "Xiaguan Qiu Buwei has seen King Qi. ”

Zhou Yu said lightly: "Qiu County's order is not polite, today this king came to Cuiyun County to observe the people's feelings. I heard that the county government was trying a case, so I remembered my father's teachings, and I must humbly ask the local parents and officials everywhere to enhance my knowledge and not to peep into the leopard. Therefore, this king came to the county government to observe the adult's judgment of the case. ”

Qiu Buwei hurriedly replied: "His Royal Highness the King of Qi is erudite and knowledgeable, and his knowledge is far above the lower officials, and it is an honor for the lower officials to be guided by the King of Qi, and the lower officials are also invited to sit down." ”

Zhou Yu smiled and said: "You are the parent official of Cuiyun County, and this case is being tried by Qiu County Order, this king is just here to observe, how can you sit down?" Just put a chair on the side of the bookcase, and I'll just sit there. ”

As he spoke, he waved his hand, and a eunuch had already brought a chair and placed it on the left side of the bookcase, and then stood behind the chair.

Qiu Buwei saw King Qi, panicked, and also moved a careful thought, wanting to push the case to King Qi for trial, so that no matter what the final result was, he would not bear any responsibility.

However, King Qi insisted that he was only here to observe and refused to intervene in this matter, so Qiu Buwei had no choice but to continue to hold this hot potato in his hand.

Qiu Buwei was about to invite King Qi to sit when he suddenly heard a beautiful voice say, "Pingle has seen the eldest emperor. ”

Zhou Yu's expression did not change in the slightest, as if everything was expected. He turned around slowly, and saw Zhou Xuan Yingying standing in front of him, with a hint of apology in her eyes.

Zhou Yu only glanced at Zhou Xuan, and his eyes fell on the young man who was walking with her.

And the young man also kept looking at him with scrutinizing eyes, and when he saw Zhou Yu's gaze turned to him, he closed his gaze, bowed slightly and said, "Su Shi has seen His Royal Highness King Qi. ”

Zhou Yu nodded lightly and said, "Su Gongzi is not only a famous queen, but also a poet of Jinghu, and his talent is amazing, so he doesn't need to be polite." ”

Su Shi stood up straight and said with a smile: "Thank you, Your Highness." ”

Although Zhou Yu's expression was very indifferent, he looked directly at Su Shi with blazing eyes, and said slowly: "Su Gongzi's poetry king likes it very much, and he has long wanted to invite Su Gongzi to come over to talk freely. ”

Su Shi smiled and said, "Su Shi is deeply honored to be invited by His Royal Highness King Qi. It's just that I am shallow in my studies, and I am afraid that what I talk about will insult His Highness. ”

Zhou Yu looked at Su Shi quietly, as if he wanted to see through his thoughts. However, Su Shi just stood there casually, although his face was humble, his eyes were wandering, as if he was wandering in the world.

Zhou Yu smiled and said: "My father also likes Su Gongzi's poems, and once told me that Su Gongzi has great talent and should serve the imperial court." At present, there is a shortage of a director in the Ministry of Rites, and I am about to ask my father to recommend Mr. Su to serve as the director of the Ministry of Rites. From then on, Gongzi Su and your eldest brother General Su have been shining with one article and one martial arts, isn't it a beautiful conversation. ”

Su Shishi saluted and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty and King Qi." Then he showed a look of embarrassment and sighed: "It's a pity that I haven't finished my studies, and I'm afraid that I won't be able to enter the court as an official for the time being and serve the court." ”

Zhou Yu was slightly stunned, Su Shi's background had already been investigated by him clearly, and now he is just a gentleman, idle all day long, where is there any study that needs to be completed.

Even Zhou Xuan looked at him curiously, and he really couldn't figure out why Su Shi would make up such an excuse.

Su Shi explained: "A month ago, when the prince of the country saw that he was stupid, he felt pity, so he accepted him as a disciple and taught carefully, just to live up to the name of the general's mansion. ”

Speaking of this, he sighed again: "Master Confucius once earnestly taught students that if they have not completed their studies, they should not become officials, otherwise they will not only harm others and themselves, but also affect the general's mansion." ”

Zhou Yu's face sank, and after a long time, he said lightly: "It seems that my kindness Su Gongzi will not receive it." ”

Su Shi smiled and said: "King Qi's kindness Su Shi remembered it in his heart, but now the time has not come. ”

Zhou Yu asked slowly, "Then when is the time?" ”

Su Shi said: "Naturally, he was successful in his studies, and he thought he had the ability to serve the court. ”

Zhou Yu said in a calm tone: "Since this is the case, this king will not force it. This king will wait and see when the son will be able to succeed in his studies. ”

Su Shi lowered his head, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

He said lightly: "Although I am dull, I am better at learning, so His Royal Highness the King of Qi will soon see the day when Su Shi completes his studies, and at that time, I hope that the King of Qi will not care about his past suspicions." ”

Zhou Yu laughed and said: "On the day Su Gongzi completes his studies, there will be another talent in Daqian, and it is too late for this king to be happy, so how can he have a dislike for Su Gongzi." ”

Su Shi smiled slightly and thanked: "Since this is the case, please wait and see from King Qi." ”
