Twenty years ago, dozens of horses galloped on the winding path between the woods in the garden, and the bells tied around the horses' necks formed a staggered rhythm with their galloping steps.

The leader was dressed in golden armor, holding a golden crow sunset bow, and carrying a yellow feather star-chasing arrow on his back to rush towards a galloping elk.

I saw that this elk was unusually slippery, it dodged left and right, dodging several arrows shot by the guards behind the golden armor.

"Whoever hunts this deer will be rewarded?" The golden armor man saw that the prey was so flexible, and the desire to conquer in his heart was aroused.

In the horse team, a young man in a strong suit suddenly flung the reins and rode out, he took out an arrow from his quiver, leaned slightly to the left, and exerted his divine strength, and the black birch bow in his hand was drawn into a full moon shape.

"Whoosh!" the arrow arced through the air in a black light, striking the elk in the head, killing the prey instantly.

"Good riding and shooting!" This golden armor man is Xiao Chong, the second emperor of Qi State: "Which Qing family hunted this thing for me?"

"The minister, the new court lieutenant, the court lieutenant, Zhi Shan, knocked to see Your Majesty. The young man knelt down on one knee and hugged Xiao Zhong.

"Okay, good! There are talents from all over the country, and I can't imagine that there is another young talent in my Qi country. Xiao Zhong waved his hand at the horse team: "Come on, set up camp and roast this prey." ”

Everyone went about their duties, and soon tents were set up, and piles of wood were piled up, and Zhi Shanjin prelude: "Your Majesty, there is a good harvest today, can you start lighting a bonfire to roast these prey to reward the soldiers." ”

"Well, let's wait for the concubine's carriage to catch up and start again. Xiao Zhong looked into the distance, twisted his beard and smiled: "Look, the carriage is coming." ”

The carriage staggered on the uneven ground in the Shanglin Garden for about an hour of tea, and finally came to Xiao Chong.

A maid in a skirt helped a woman in palace clothes to get out of the car cautiously: "Your Majesty, your horse team is also fast, and I don't know how to wait for the concubines." ”

"Hahaha, don't worry, concubine, after the elk is roasted, you will be able to taste this tender delicacy first. Xiao coaxed Wang Guifei.

"Hmph! That's pretty much it. Wang Guifei twisted her waist and slowly walked to a grass shed by the tree with the support of the maid: "Your Majesty, it is convenient for the concubine to go." ”

"Ahh

"Zhi Aiqing, quickly escort and rescue the princess. Seeing this, Xiao Zhong was anxious, and hurriedly ordered Zhi Shan beside him.

"Your Majesty, men and women do not kiss each other! Ministers are people who observe etiquette, and how can they make mistakes. Zhi Shan didn't move.

"Huh!" Xiao Chongyi pulled out the sword at his waist: "I will personally save it!"

"No! The concubine is just a concubine, but Your Majesty is the world, how can you risk your life for a concubine!" Zhi Shan knelt down and hugged Xiao Chong's leg tightly, refusing to let him come forward to save people.

Nearly 20 years have passed since this incident, but it is still fresh in the old man's memory. Liang Chong was still embarrassed when he talked about this past.

"Later, did the first emperor save Wang Guifei. Liu Ningshi blinked her eyes and asked with interest.

Fortunately, there was a false alarm, and the wild boar did not hurt Wang Guifei and ran away again. Liang Chong said with a smile: "However, after this incident, the first emperor respected Zhishan very much, and to this day, the saint still trusts him even more." ”

"No wonder that day in Yefu, Zhang Ye didn't dare to be presumptuous anymore when he saw Uncle Zhi, and ran away in a gloomy manner. Liu Ningshi stuck out her tongue: "I didn't expect Uncle Zhi to be so powerful, and it was right for Ning Shi to ask him for help that day." ”

"In addition to being loyal to His Majesty, Zhishan only recognizes the laws of Daqi. Liang Chong continued to talk eloquently: "Don't look at the word 'good' in my protégé's name, but he is not good at all; ”

"It's no wonder that the fast catches in the Tingwei Mansion are called eagle hunting. Liu Ningshi thought thoughtfully: "Wouldn't my brother be so strong and unable to escape the severe punishment?"

"According to what Taifu Fang Cai said, unless His Majesty decrees an amnesty, or he can defeat Zhishan in Qi Law. Tong Bo, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke.

"As far as I know Your Majesty, he will not grant an amnesty unless there is a justified reason. Liang Chong shook his feather fan: "Therefore, if you want to exempt Little Brother An from the punishment, you can only go to the Tingwei Mansion to defend the law." ”

"But we don't know anything about Qi Lu, how can we argue this law?" Tong Bo looked at Liang Chong and then at Liu Ningshi.

"Brother Xiangyun, have you forgotten that Uncle Liang is the current emperor, and he must have been familiar with Qi Lu for a long time. Liu Ningshi smiled and looked at Liang Chong.

"Just you girl ghost!" Liang Chong pointed at Liu Ningshi with a feather fan: "But it is inconvenient for the old man to come forward in this matter, only by relying on the two of you to learn and sell now; ”

"Juyoulou?" Tong Bo and Liu Ningshi glanced at each other.

"Is there something wrong?" Liang Chong asked, looking at the surprised expressions of the two.

"It's nothing, please ask Taifu to point out Qi Lu. Tong Bo said.

"Uncle Liang, Ning Shi can't wait. Liu Ningshi looked eager to try.

On the edge of the pond in the Imperial Garden, Xiao Shiyu grabbed a handful of fish food from the dishes in his left hand with his right hand and scattered it, and the koi carp that were originally all over the pond quickly gathered towards the food;

"Your Majesty, Master Si Nong Zhang has been waiting for a long time. Gao Xian bowed to the enthusiastic Xiao Shiyu.

"Xuan. Xiao Shiyu said without replying.

"The minister Zhang Shuming knocked to see His Majesty. Zhang Shumin, who was dressed in a light red official robe, walked behind Xiao Shiyu with a calm official walk, and he was about to kneel down with his robe.

"Whether this is a court or not, the title of the book does not have to be formal. Xiao Shiyu turned around and held the title of Zhang's book with one hand.

"Thank you, Your Majesty. Zhang Shuming thanked him.

"Title, do you know what I called you back this time?" Xiao Shiyu turned around again and looked at the school of fish that were eating.

In recent years, the country's grain hoarding has been decreasing year by year, and at present there are only 5 million stone of grain left in the official warehouse; in the event of a war, it will be impossible to make ends meet. Zhang Shumin said: "The minister apologizes to His Majesty for his father." ”

"You see, these fish are like my people, and if there is no food to supply, they will starve to death. Xiao Shiyu waved his hand at Zhang Shumin: "Don't ask for guilt, you are my companion, I can trust you, within three years, increase the grain in the official warehouse to 10 million stones, you don't have to be disappointed." ”

"The scholars are willing to make a military order here, and if they fail to fulfill His Majesty's will within three years, they are willing to take the blame and no longer be an official for the rest of their lives. Zhang Shumin's expression was solemn.

"Okay! The scholars have this confidence, why worry about the big thing!" Xiao Shiyu nodded appreciatively: "You also know about Yunrang, right?"

"Yes, he only hates creation and making people, his talent has always been higher than that of scholars, if it weren't for his father who made such a big mistake, Yun Rang would have been His Majesty's right-hand man. Zhang Shumin sighed.

"It's really like smoke in the past!" Xiao Shiyu also looked melancholy: "By the way, where are you staying in the haste of coming back this time?"

"After receiving the call from His Majesty, the minister did not dare to delay for a moment, and rushed over without stopping. Zhang Shumin replied: "I am currently staying in the Zuifeng Building. ”

"It's really my fault to let the scholars stay in the inn. Xiao Shiyu listened to Zhang Shumin's report and nodded with satisfaction: "Gao Xian, pass on my will to renovate the original Han family's house on Lingyuan Street and give it to the scholars." ”

"Minister Zhang Shumin thanks Lord Longen. Zhang Shumin knelt down on his knees and bowed.

"I'm actually selfish in doing this. Xiao Shiyu helped Zhang Shumin up: "That street has been in decline for a long time, how to make it prosperous again, I hope you can bear this burden." ”

"I understand. Yun Rang is also a close friend of the scholars, and I have an unshirkable responsibility for both public and private affairs. ”

"If you have any difficulties, I should fully support you. ”

Just as the two were talking, Gao Xian came forward to report: "Your Majesty, Li Chongde, the head of the household, asks to see you." ”

"Xuan. ”

"Your Majesty, the minister will retire first. ”

"Hmm! Zhang Shumin slowly withdrew from the Imperial Garden.

At the end of the day, the Juyou Building was still lively, but Liu Ningshi, who was dressed as a child, always felt that something was wrong after entering the teahouse, and kept looking around.

"Miss Liu, what are you looking at?" Tong Bo lightly touched Liu Ningshi's arm.

"I always feel that there is something different from the last time I came?" Liu Ningshi was thinking in her heart, and Xiao Er stepped forward diligently.

"Do the two guest officers want a table in the lobby on the first floor or go to the private room on the second floor?" With Xiao Er's greeting, Liu Ningshi looked at him suspiciously: "Why haven't I seen you before?"

"The little one is new, and of course the guest officer doesn't know him. Xiao Er replied enthusiastically.

"Then is your shopkeeper there?" asked Liu Ningshi again.

"Childe doesn't know, and our shopkeeper is also new. The original shopkeeper and others have gone elsewhere. Xiao Er waved the strip of cloth in his hand.

Tong Bo looked at Liu Ningshi with a smile: "Xiao Er, find a table in the lobby downstairs, let's wait for someone." ”

"Okay. At table No. 3 in the lobby, two guest officers please: "Serve tea." ”

"Why do I think there's something wrong, it turns out that the previous people have changed. Liu Ningshi whispered: "And the lobby was originally separated by partitions, but now it is all open." ”

"This Murong Li's hands and feet are fast enough, it seems that the scoundrel in the wonton shop has been cleaned up by him. Tong Bo nodded: "Since that's the case, then it's safe, let's sit down and taste tea first, and wait for the fat man to come." ”

The two sat down and just took two sips of tea, when a fat young man in brocade clothes hurriedly ran in, only to see that his collar was soaked with sweat, and his forehead was also covered with beads of sweat.

"Master Su, this way. Tong Bo beckoned to the fat boy.

"I said Xiangyun, what is the urgent matter, I need to use the flying pigeon to call me. The fat boy complained as he picked up a cup full of tea and drank it all.

"Fat brother, Brother Xiangyun came to you, of course you need help. Liu Ningshi looked at the fat boy and felt funny.

"Are you?Miss Liu?" The fat boy looked at Liu Ningshi, who was dressed as a child, and was stunned, then recognized her, and whispered to Tong Bo quite fearfully: "Why did you invite this aunt and grandmother." ”

"Third Master Su, sit down and talk. Tong Bo pointed to the stool and whispered, "Don't make too much of the movement, the people around us are looking at us." ”

"Hey!" Su Sangongzi sighed and sat down stupidly.
