Armament Institute Shooting Range.

Li Weijian's mind is turning, and he knows that he is so far in Weifu, I am afraid that he doesn't want people to reveal his identity. At that moment, he was silent, and only took gunpowder and projectiles.

After a brief explanation, 'Li Langzhong' first filled the gunpowder, then tamped it with a whole strip, stuffed the projectile and tamped it again, broke the trigger, stood still in the same place, picked up the fire gun and took a slight aim, and was about to open fire, when he saw the old eunuch shouting: "Lang Zhong is slow!" ”

As he spoke, he quickly took out a pair of sunglasses from his cuffs and offered them respectfully: "I have to mention that I have to put the medicine and splash my eyes." ”

"Hmm."

'Li Langzhong' answered, put on sunglasses and aimed again, Wangshan aimed at the target twenty feet away, and suddenly pulled the trigger.

Bang –

In the distance, the little official quickly ran over to take a look, and then waved the flag again and again.

"Your Excellency is in the middle of a red heart!" Li Weijian said on the side.

'Li Langzhong' put down the firecracker, took off his sunglasses and threw them to the old eunuch on the side, rubbed the body of the gun and said, "It's really a lot more accurate...... How did the officer feel that compared to ordinary firearms, the rate of fire of this guns was a little slower? ”

"My lordship sees that it is true. The conical projectile is a little more difficult to reload than a normal projectile. ”

"Good, good." After a few praises, 'Li Langzhong' put the new gun on the table, and Yan Fengzhen on the side hurriedly grabbed it.

The old eunuch's face changed, and he was about to open his mouth to scold, but he was stopped by a look from 'Li Langzhong'.

The 'Li Langzhong' glanced at Yan Fengzhen and Li Weijian, smiled on his face, and bowed slightly at Li Weijian: "You go with the official." ”

"Yes."

On the edge of the shooting range is the hand-copying verandah, Emperor Zhenghe walked forward, Li Weijian took half a step, and Yuan Chun and the old eunuch followed far behind. Li Weijian swept slightly, and saw that there were men in Tsing Yi walking around him about ten paces.

Emperor Zhenghe took a few steps, slowed down, and said, "Xinjun is good, your uncle has been okay in the past few years?" ”

Li Weijian immediately said in a low voice: "Back to the saint, the uncle is getting old, and he contracted the wind and cold last year, and it took a long time to recover." ”

Emperor Zhenghe paused, glanced at him with an approving gaze, and said with a smile: "Li Shouzhong is too square, I don't want to be an outlier like you in the clan." Yan Xiyao recommended to me, saying that Li Fusheng not only has a profound foundation in practical learning, but also has the talent to create things, and also has the ability to do things.

Yan Xiyao never said anything, I really wondered in my heart, so I came to see it in person. ”

Li Weijian said humbly: "Shao Si Kou praised it, and the small people are still far inferior to Shao Si Kou." ”

"You're that old...... Only fourteen? ”

"It's fourteen after autumn."

"That's thirteen, it's really rare to be at such an age!" After a pause, Emperor Zhenghe looked into the distance, the city wall obscured his vision, and he seemed to have penetrated thousands of mountains and rivers, and saw the tragic battle in the desert.

Suddenly, Emperor Zhenghe said: "Dzungaria is really a problem for the henchmen of the imperial court!" In addition, the techniques of the Western Zhuyi are changing with each passing day, relying on the strength of the ship and the artillery, and the small country of the projectile has expanded its territory for thousands of miles. I...... I'm really worried, if I don't cheer up, I'm afraid that I will be bullied by Xiyi in a hundred years. ”

"The saint is high." Li Weijian couldn't help but be surprised in his heart, and said: "However, the sage has a heart to cheer up at the beginning of the imperial pole, and he has worked hard for ten years. With our manpower and material resources, in time, we will overwhelm the Western Empire. ”

Emperor Zhenghe just shook his head and smiled: "How easy is it? Ten years, ten years, I have implemented some practical learning. There are 80 scholars in each subject, and the official positions are only small officials. I want to follow the law and change the law, where are these Xu Shixue people enough?

The emperor really sees thousands of miles, but to act, it is always inseparable from talents. After a pause, Emperor Zhenghe suddenly recited: "I advise the Heavenly Father to be vigorous and eclectic to reduce talents." Taizong's words are true. ”

Li Weijian heard that poem and suddenly sighed in his heart, and almost thought that the Emperor Zhenghe next to him had also passed through. After listening to the second half of the words, I put my heart back in my stomach. I am more and more curious in my heart, and I don't know how much intangible heritage Taizong Li Guo has left here.

He hurriedly said: "The sage is prosperous in the spring and autumn period, and he will do it slowly, and he will lay a foundation that will not be easy for eternity in the future." ”

Emperor Zhenghe was speechless, and he walked forward for a while, and he suddenly said: "After the autumn season, do you have a plan for resurrection?" This new skill, when converted, it is not impossible for me to give you a fellow jinshi background. ”

Tongjinshi? Don't say that it was given, even if the top three are given to the same jinshi, they are not welcomed in the officialdom. A given word, partial birth indicates the difference with Jinshi.

Li Weijian thought for a moment and said, "Xiaomin is still young, and he still wants to wait for the test to be learned." ”

Emperor Zhenghe smiled: "That's okay to wait." After a pause, he said: "Since the resurrection has this ambition, then this merit will be recorded for the time being, and I will reward you again in the next day." ”

"Thank you, saint."

With two steps, Li Weijian took out the document from his sleeve, walked two steps quickly and stopped in front of Emperor Zhenghe, bowed down and said: "Sage, Xiaomin has a plan to present, look at the sage." ”

Emperor Zhenghe stopped, reached out and took it, but never opened it. Li Weijian is so old, Emperor Zhenghe only said that he was guilty of scholarly anger like an ordinary scholar, and it was only then that he wrote in front of him and expressed his heart directly.

He smiled and said, "Okay, I'll see it later." There is a skill in resurrection, and you must not forget to study, you must beware of the next autumn horse stumbling forward. ”

"Xiaomin has written it down, thank you for the teachings of the sage."

"That's it."

Li Weijian took two steps to get out of the way, bowed and arched his hand: "Congratulations to the saint." ”

Na Zheng and Di slightly bowed their heads, and then strode away. Li Weijian stopped in the distance to maintain his figure, and when the old lady and Jia Yuanchun passed by, he couldn't help but be curious, so he quietly raised his eyes to look. Jia Yuanchun, who didn't want to bump into a eunuch robe, was glancing at himself curiously.

As soon as the two of them met, Li Weijian hurriedly lowered his gaze.

Jia Yuanchun chased after Emperor Zhenghe, but the old eunuch stopped in front of Li Weijian and said with a smile: "Li Xiucai, you might as well walk around the military academy diligently in the past two days." Besides, this new gun is sharp, and it must not be passed on. ”

"Yes, thank you for your advice."

Li Weijian's face was embarrassed, and he hurriedly reached out and groped for a while in the sleeve cage, but only found two gold leaves. When he was about to hand it over, the eunuch shook his head with a smile and said: "Li Xiucai doesn't learn from those officials and ordinary philistines, our family doesn't expect Li Xiucai's silver, we only hope that Li Xiucai will share more worries for the saint in the future." Haha, Li Xiucai stayed. ”

After that, the eunuch hurriedly chased after Emperor Zhenghe.

Li Weijian gave it away, and then stopped in the same place to watch it hide at the end of the verandah, thinking in his heart, and wondering if his plan would be shelved. Thinking of such a way to benefit without cost, Emperor Zhenghe will be extremely happy, right?

And that Jia Yuanchun, I don't think I will be a concubine in the near future, right?

After thinking about it again, I suddenly felt that something was wrong!

Yan Xiyao wants to be loyal to himself, how can he recommend himself to Jinshang? Isn't this person afraid that he will be blessed with a favor because of this, and turn his head against him?

That Yan Xiyao is well versed in the way of being an official, and he will never harm himself and benefit others, could it be that he was wrong in his own thinking yesterday?

Li Weijian frowned and pondered, but for a while he couldn't figure out what Yan Xiyao wanted.

……………………………………………………

Rongguo Mansion.

When Shen was approaching, the master and servant returned on horseback.

Fang just turned over and dismounted at the corner gate, and the man greeted the general early, bowed and said: "Fourth Master Jian, you can be regarded as back." ”

Li Weijian said with a smile: "It's also this time in the Su Ri, what's the matter, someone is looking for me today?" ”

The man said: "Early in the morning, the mandarin duck beside the old lady sent her mother-in-law to pass the word, saying that today is Miss Lin's child, and the old lady invited the fourth master to go over to Gaole." ”

Mother Jia asked herself to celebrate Daiyu's birthday?

Li Weijian thought about the situation clearly, I am afraid that Jia's mother will use this to save herself. This is right in the middle, he stayed in Jiafu for his eldest sister Li Kun, but now that things have just begun, how can he leave easily?

He smiled and bowed his head, casually threw the reins to Menzi, and said, "Yes, I see." I didn't bring any money with me today, but I'll reward you another day. ”

The man smiled and said: "Look at what the fourth master said, the fourth master rewarded enough last time, and the small one can't be said if he is not satisfied." ”

Li Weijian left the door, walked the sandwich road with Wu Haiping, bypassed the east courtyard, and then separated from Wu Haiping. Wu Haiping went to the rear crony room to settle, and Li Weijian went back to his small courtyard.

This time, it was not red jade, but Xiuying. The little girl hurriedly said what Menzi said before, and Li Weijian changed her clothes, and then led Xiuying and Xiangling to go around to Jia's mother.

When he arrived at the door of the hanging flowers, a maid stepped forward to salute, leading Li Weijian through the hall, the small hall, and the main room, and then to the big flower hall behind the main house.

Before entering, Li Weijian could hear the silk bamboo and singing tactfully, paused in the middle of hugging the summer, handed the cloak to Xiangling, and Li Weijian, who was dressed in moon white clothes, entered with his head held high.

In the flower hall, Jia Mu, Li Kun, Wang Xifeng, Sanchun, Baoyu, and Daiyu gathered at a table, and there was a familiar but unfamiliar little girl beside Daiyu, who set up another table through the screen, but sat Jia Lian.

A maid had already stepped forward to report: "Old lady, the fourth thrifty master has arrived." ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone at the banquet looked at the door, but saw a young man in a moon-white robe smiling and groaning and entering with his head held high. stepped forward and bowed to Jia's mother: "Old lady, the younger generation is late." ”

Jia Mu smiled and said: "It's not too late, it's also my fault, I thought about sending someone to inform Brother Jian yesterday." As I get older, I don't have enough memory, and I don't remember it until this morning. ”

Wang Xifeng said with a smile on the side: "The old lady is a noble person, and she can't remember it for a while." ”

Li Weijian greeted everyone again: "Big sister, sister-in-law Feng." ”

Li Kun bowed his head, Wang Xifeng glanced at Li Weijian with a pair of phoenix eyes, and said with a smile: "Brother Jian'er should not be polite, I haven't seen him for a few days, Brother Jian'er looks at his demeanor better than when he first came." ”

"Sister-in-law Feng praised it falsely." He turned to the crowd in the banquet again, greeted Baoyu and the others, and then congratulated him: "I wish Sister Lin a long and prosperous life, and Yinghui is a beautiful person." ”

Daiyu hurriedly got up and said politely: "Thank you, Fourth Brother Jian." ”

Li Weijian looked at the little girl with a round face again, and Daiyu introduced: "Fourth brother Jian, this is the younger sister of the Shi family, named Xiangyun." ”

That Xiangyun was hearty, and immediately got up and said, "Fourth brother Jian, let's see you again." ”

Li Weijian smiled and bowed his head, and Baoyu said on the side: "When did you meet?" ”

Xiangyun said coquettishly: "When I passed the house early in the morning, I was so depressed that I picked up the curtain, and I happened to see the fourth brother Jian riding a white horse and walking out. ”

Everyone was relieved, and Jia Mu smiled: "You girl will have to change her personality in the future." He looked at Li Weijian again and said, "Brother Jian, there are a lot of people today, so they are divided into two tables, don't be polite, let's sit down." ”

Li Weijian responded, turned the screen and saluted Jia Lian, and then Shi Shiran sat down.

The flower hall is burning with smoke cages and braziers, and the transparent glass embedded in the window lattices of the outer room is warm like spring. A few actors in the field were babbling and singing, but they didn't know where to invite the Kunqu team.

The people couldn't take their eyes off it, but Li Weijian couldn't appreciate it, so he talked with Jia Lianyan and ate the banquet.

The table was covered with dishes, and Li Weijian estimated that it was not as good as the banquet when Aunt Xue entered the mansion that day, and it was almost the same. Through the screen, the other side was smiling, and sometimes there were Wang Xifeng's high-spirited and Shi Xiangyun's childlike laughter.

After eating a banquet for more than half an hour, Jia's mother said that she was a little tired, and a few maids helped her to rest. After a while, the big girl mandarin duck came quietly and laughed in a low voice: "Fourth Master Thrifty, the old lady wants to talk to the fourth master for a while." ”

Li Weijian hurriedly got up: "It's not good to make the old lady wait for a long time, please ask Sister Mandarin Duck to lead the way." ”

turned around and said goodbye to Jia Lian, and then he followed the mandarin duck to the main room.

In the five main rooms, Jia's mother was crooked on the soft collapse, and when she saw Li Weijian coming, she smiled and beckoned: "Brother Jian'er come here, come here, move the embroidery pier for Brother Jian'er." ”

The maid responded, moved the embroidery pier, and Li Weijian walked over and sat not far from Jia's mother's side.

Jia Mu said: "Brother Jian, is it still comfortable to live in the house these days? ”

"Back to the old lady, it's all right."

Jia Mu pursed her lips and squinted, and said, "Why don't you tell the truth in front of me?" I've heard it all, and the maids around you all say you're moving out. ”

A trace of embarrassment flashed on Li Weijian's face, and said: "Old lady, logically speaking, it is not good for me to live in the house for a long time as a foreign man......

Before he finished speaking, Jia Mu bluffed and said, "What is this?" Brother Zhu's daughter-in-law is my granddaughter-in-law, and she is similar to your own sister and brother, how can she be regarded as a foreign man? are all their own relatives, and I don't follow Brother Frugal like this! ”

"This ...... That's what the old lady said. ”

Jia Mu changed her words and said, "Brother Jian'er doesn't say it, I also know that you have been wronged." As the saying goes, teeth touch tongue, pots and pans touch spoons. It is inevitable that there will be a noisy person in this family, and it will be a long time if you can't talk about it. ”

After a pause, he said: "Besides, at your age, if you move out, not to mention Brother Zhu's daughter-in-law, even I can't rest assured." Brother Frugal and rest assured, I will let Brother Feng take care of it more in the future, and I can't let you be bullied again. ”

In response to Jia's mother's eager gaze, Li Weijian pretended to sigh and said, "The old lady said this, what else can I say?" Just listen to the old lady's orders. ”

Jia Mu suddenly laughed: "That's right." Come on, I'm really tired, go and play tricks with your brothers and sisters. ”
