The scorching sun shone on the majestic and quaint city walls, and brick by stone was hot.

The south gate of Yanjing has implemented a ban on travel, and the traders who come and go from the south to the north, the travelers from the three mountains and five mountains, and the people who enter and leave the city can only bypass the east and west gates at this moment.

The emperor personally conquered the East China Sea and triumphed, such a scene, it is estimated that no one wants to leave, they have stood on both sides of the road, against the sultry temperature, three layers inside and three layers outside waiting for the victorious division to appear.

Queen Fang Xuejun sat in the phoenix, beside the prince Su Chen, who was constantly wiping sweat, such a sultry weather, sitting in the carriage of the queen mother was extremely annoyed, but seeing the queen mother's smiling face as usual, there was not even a little sweat stain on the forehead, so she couldn't help asking: "Queen mother, aren't you hot at all?" ”

"It's hot, but the queen mother can control it, and if the heart is not anxious, people won't be too hot."

Fang Xuejun stroked her bulging lower abdomen, she was about to give birth, but fortunately, Her Majesty came back victoriously at this time, and she was very happy in her heart.

"Obviously, the queen mother uses internal force to control sweating." Su Chen clasped his hands around his chest and muttered with a small mouth.

"Since you know, then you still knowingly ask, just to know when your father will come back." Fang Xuejun pursed her lips and chuckled, opened the curtain a little, and pointed to another carriage outside, "Chen'er, you might as well ask Xun Shilang." ”

Su Chen was young, and he had some understanding of the official positions of the hundred officials in the imperial court, and the Xun Shilang in the mouth of the queen mother was Xun Yu, the waiter of Zhongshu Province, I heard that he followed his father to raise troops, and he had been sticking to the rear in Ding'an City, and he only moved to Yanjing three years ago.

"Xun Shilang is a real talent, he has always been hidden in the rear, and most of your father's unification of the six kingdoms and the governance of the Xia Kingdom are from him."

Fang Xuejun seemed to recall the past, and said with a smile: "Your father once said that he leaked his mouth, it turned out that he had learned the way of governing the country with Xun Shilang back then, and Xun Shilang also wrote a book "Ping Yan Ce" for your father. ”

The pretty woman touched her son's head.

"Remember, you must be respectful and humble when you treat Xun Shilang, your father respects him very much."

"Well, the kid got it."

Su Chen nodded obediently, then arched his hand to the queen mother, got off the phoenix, and ran to the carriage on the side under the eyes of the guards.

The little eunuch who followed hurriedly called: "Oh, the prince slow down!" ”

Just as he was about to go over to help the prince get into the car, Su Chen took a step, jumped on the chariot lightly, and arched his hand through the curtain, opening his mouth crisply.

"Xun Shilang, I'm Su Chen, can you come in and ask for advice?!"

In the curtain, a warm voice came from the car.

"It's hot outside, the prince come in quickly."

"Yes!"

Su Chen followed the teachings of his mother, politely opened the curtain of the car, and saw a well-dressed scribe, sitting on a cushion looking at the scroll, and there were two other drunken scribes on the side, Su Chen recognized the two, Li Bai, the deputy commander of the embroidery department, and Guo Jia, the military envoy and the waiter of the Ministry of Rites.

Su Chen followed Li Bai to learn swordsmanship for a while, until he wanted to teach him to drink later, and Guo Jia even proposed to take him to the Qinglou to see it......

Fortunately, Fang Xuejun and Li Wangqiu discovered it in time, so they stopped the absurd behavior of the two, and then they didn't dare to let the two teach anymore, and instead wanted Su Chen to worship Zhuge Liang or Jia Xu as the prince and the prince's young master, but unfortunately the two went out with the army.

When I got to the back, I thought of Xun Yu, the talented Wang Zuozhi who was behind the scenes, but the other party often refused because of his talents.

But Fang Xuejun knew that the more this was the case, the more talented the other party was, and when he was in the palace, he asked Su Chen to visit Xun Yu in Zhongshu Province from time to time, ask for some knowledge, or follow the other party to observe speech and behavior.

At present, to welcome the opportunity for the victory of the Son of Heaven, Fang Xuejun will naturally not let it go, and there is this scene now.

Su Chen entered the carriage and saluted Xun Yu respectfully, even the sleepy Guo Jia and Li Bai also saluted one by one.

"What strange things did the prince encounter today, and he wants the old minister to solve his doubts?" Xun Yu smiled and asked Su Chen to sit next to him, this kid has been coming over for a while recently, and he has to find something to ask about everything, so he asked jokingly.

"I didn't have it today, I just wanted to come over and ask the squire when my father will come back."

Guo Jia and Li Bai snorted, sighed twice, turned over, and continued to sleep.

Xun Yu, who put down the scroll, chuckled gently, "The prince asks like this, but it will be difficult for the old minister." ”

Su Chen blinked: "Why?" ”

"A long march, although there is a feasible road under your feet, but you don't know what kind of changes will happen when you go, such as heavy rain and strong winds, which originally came as promised, and may be delayed because of changes, so the old minister will say that the prince is difficult to be an old minister."

"In fact, walking through thousands of mountains and rivers is also like the journey of life, there must be thousands of difficulties on the way, and the prince must not retreat in distress."

"Of course I won't retreat in distress, I will be like my father, whoever dares to stop me, I will send troops to kill him!"

The little man clenched his fist and waved, and there was a hint of heroism between his eyebrows.

However, Xun Yu smiled and waved his hand.

"The prince's words are too early, what if the prince's way is blocked by thousands of Li people?"

"Then ...... Yes? ”

Su Chen's words stopped, he opened his mouth in a daze and couldn't close it, without waiting for him to ask, Xun Yu opened his mouth and said: "The people, the cornerstone of the emperor, can also trip the emperor from the throne, if the people stand in the way, as the emperor, it is time to introspect." ”

"When will the people stand in the way of the emperor?"

"When you can't fill your stomach."

Su Chen seemed to be enlightened, his eyes gradually glowed, and he was about to retire and return to his mother, and when he savored what Xun Shilang said today, a vague sentence suddenly came from the side: "Don't bow to the prince and the prince yet." ”

Over there, Guo Jia, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, turned over, muttered these words, and fell asleep again.

Su Chen was a big ghost with a good head, so he immediately knelt on the cushion, arched his hand towards Xun Yu, and then bent down and bowed.

"Su Chen bows to the prince and the prince to solve his doubts!"

After speaking, he got up happily, opened the curtain and left, and thanked Guo Jia, who was still asleep: "Guo Shilang, thank you!" ”

Then, lowering the curtain, he let out a crisp laugh and jumped out of the chariot and ran away.

In the carriage, Xun Yu picked up the scroll with a smile and knocked on the door of Guo Jia's head, who was pretending to be asleep.

"Pretend to be asleep, see what you arranged for me!"

"Hehe, this kid is mentioned by you, how can he be the king of sainthood in the future, don't waste your knowledge and righteousness."

Guo Jia's eyes didn't open, his hands were in his sleeves, and he laughed twice, "In the future, there will be no need to fight in this world, an emperor with a temperament like you is suitable for guarding the world, and it is the blessing of the people." ”

Xun Yu sighed, thinking of the studious appearance of the villain just now, he couldn't help laughing, glared at Guo Jia who was pretending to be asleep over there, took the scroll and continued to flip through it, and after a while, the voice of the guard outside sounded.

"Qi Yu Shilang, General Li sent someone to summon the news, Your Majesty's honor guard is about to arrive."

"Well, go tell the queen, and there are hundreds of civil and military officials......" Xun Yu didn't have the heart to read, put down the scroll, shook his wide sleeves, got up and got out of the car, Guo Jia and Li Bai on the side also came to their senses at this time and went down with him.

The heat wave was blowing in the face, and the palace guards and city sergeants standing on both sides of the city gate spread along the official road.

In the middle of the city gate, the Chinese military officials came over one after another to assemble and line up, and Empress Fang Xuejun led the prince over and greeted the courtiers.

Xun Yu looked at the harmonious scene of the Manchu Dynasty, his heart was comfortable, and he made an inviting gesture to the two people behind, "Taibai, Fengxiao, go over together and welcome the triumph of the Son of Heaven!" ”

"Yes." Li Bai arched his hand, and then spread out, "Xun Shilang, please." ”

Guo Jia put his hands behind his back, and in Li Bai's gesture, he crossed Xun Yu and walked straight to the front.

Soon, Li Dian led the army to come first, lined up on both sides of the official road, he came to the side of the civil and military officials, stopped the war horse, and whispered a few words to the governor Zheng He who came forward.

The latter stepped forward and raised his voice.

"Your Majesty's honor guard has arrived, and hundreds of officials greet you!"

In the distance, the black background and white dragon pattern banner stood up, appearing at the end of the official road, the tiger guard battalion with iron armor and long halberd, arching a large car driving through the official road, in the soldiers on both sides of the guard kneeling and half kneeling in the salute, slowly came to the city gate.

In the soft shout of the soldiers who drove the car, the soldiers of the Tiger Guard Battalion stopped in unison, held the long halberd on their shoulders in their hands, and rested on the ground in a uniform manner.

It's a 'boom' in unison.

Su Chen opened the curtain door, and the moment he walked out, the civil and military officials outside the city gate, and the people watching from a distance knelt down in the dark.

"Meet Your Majesty and congratulate Your Majesty on your triumph!"

The sound of congratulations like a tsunami resounded throughout the city walls.
