After drinking a few cups, one of the men waved his hand to the sisters beside him, and the sisters here were naturally a few grades higher than those rouge vulgar fans on Pingle Street.

At this moment, there were only three people left in the huge private room, and then I saw one of them raise his hand "pop, pop" twice, and the two guards carried a heavy box and put it next to the table, and after the two guards retreated, the man opened the box unhurriedly, and suddenly there was only a piece of gold left in his eyes, and then he saw the man with a sneer: "Lord Zhang, this is a little bit of my heart and Brother Chai, and I hope you will always smile." ”

When the Lord Zhang heard this, he didn't know how much perseverance it took to remove his eyes from the box full of yellow and white things, and then snorted coldly: "Brother Yuan looks down on me, don't you? ”

Chai Jian and Yuan Xufeng glanced at each other when they heard this, and then the latter chuckled: "My lord misunderstood, don't say that you are clean and self-conscious, even the Huangkou children in Yancheng also know it." ”

"Oh, what is this?"

"In the past few years, whether it is a natural disaster or a man-made disaster, there are many more than usual, and the border is not particularly stable, and the treasury has long been not as full as usual. ”

Speaking of this, Zhang Xianzhi also said with a sad face: "Hey, who said it wasn't, I think this year's Fengyin can send seven achievements is very good." ”

Then Chai Jian said: "One of the small people is the people of Daqin, although they are quite wealthy, but they can't help a lot at the level of the country, and the other is also the people under the rule of Yancheng, and they always can't bear to look at the officials and brothers who have been fortunate for half a year can't even afford to eat, who doesn't have an old man?"

Hearing this, Zhang Zhizhi's face turned pale and he picked up his wine glass and said: "I blamed the two virtuous brothers for being wrong, I will punish myself with a glass!"

After raising his head and drinking this glass of wine, he said: "If I have more people in Daqin who are as worried about the country and the people as the two virtuous brothers, why don't the country prosper?

"Respect, two brothers!"

"Respect, Brother Zhang!"

After some hypocrisy and wrongdoing, Zhang Xianzhi said with a slightly red face: "I will take all the brothers of Yancheng Mansion to accept the intentions of the two virtuous brothers, but remember not to make a noise." ”

"This is nature, this is nature, the dog in the Inspector's Mansion has not moved recently, and I think I have become interested after being taught a lesson by my eldest brother. ”

"Brother Xian, don't exalt me, how can I be a little prefect in their eyes? The dog that bites people doesn't bark, but be careful and careful, who knows when this dog will see your flaws one day, and bite hard, and then it will not be as simple as dropping a piece of meat. ”

"It's still reasonable for the eldest brother to say, everything is arranged by the eldest brother. ”

In the end, it was a little drunk, Zhang Xianzhi saw that the two of them looked almost frightened and said arrogantly: "Hehe, the two virtuous brothers don't want to be like this, they don't dare to do anything to you without conclusive evidence, anyway, I am also a student of the old man in Weibutang, haha." ”

"With the care of the old man in the Ministry of Health, the eldest brother will definitely have a bright future in the future!"

"With the care of the old man in the Ministry of Health, the eldest brother will definitely have a bright future in the future!

"Come on, come on, drink, drink!"

......

On July 29, the seventeenth year of Xuancheng, it should have been a silent late night, but the lion who seemed to be standing in the middle of the imperial capital seemed to be a little restless, Pingjing Gate is a side door that few outsiders know about the palace, and the eunuchs who usually go out to do business and the holy knights who secretly pass on the holy decree are out of this door, and tonight I don't know what happened This door is slowly opened, and the two slowly enter in the dark, and then the lantern of the little eunuch next to him can see that the two are both brown officials, one of them is holding an umbrella for the other, and the umbrella is actually brown。

With the bow of the little eunuch beside him, the three of them hurriedly walked inward, the rain gradually fell a little heavier, but still could not stop the rapid pace of the three of them, the two officials who were walking behind them, but unconsciously had faintly surpassed the little eunuch in front of them, as if they had walked here countless times, and they no longer needed to be led by others.

After half a cup of tea, one of them walked straight into the Qiande Hall under the guidance of the little eunuch, and the other stood silently outside the door, the Qiande Hall is the place where the Qiande Hall is usually checked and folded, and the important ministers are met, and the current emperor is the Qindi who can be counted in history, so that even the imperial pillow and the imperial quilt are ready in the imperial study, and every time this diligent government is late at night, it will be hastily and dressed and sleep.

As soon as Xue Wen stepped into the imperial study, he saw that Emperor Li Jun of Qin was fighting at night, and the young eunuch who served on his side saw Xue Wen coming, and he wanted to remind the emperor on his side in a low voice, but Xue Wen shook his head lightly when he saw this, and in this way, with the candle shadow gently swaying in the sheep's horn glass, the two monarchs and ministers were silent here for a long time, and after a long time, Li Jun raised his somewhat sore neck, but he accidentally saw Xue Wen waiting below, and then said displeased to the young eunuch beside him: "Xue Aiqing is here, why don't you remind me?"

When he heard this, he quickly knelt down and said, "The slave should die, and I hope Your Majesty will not be angry, so as not to hurt your body." ”

Without waiting for Li Jun to speak, Xue Wen bowed and said: "It's the minister's intention, Your Majesty should not be angry with Grandpa Zeng." ”

Emperor Qin waved his hand to his side with some annoyance when he heard this, and when he saw this, he hurriedly bowed and walked out quickly, his movements were extremely smooth, and he didn't know how many times he had done it, and after closing the door, there were really only two of the most powerful people in the world left in the huge imperial study.

Li Jun rubbed his eyebrows a little tiredly, and Yu Yu threw the fold he had just finished reading in his hand in front of the imperial table and said, "Qiyuan, this is a report from my secret agent just sent, you can take a look first." ”

Taishi Xue Wen responded to the end of the body and slowly stepped forward to pick up the fold and read it carefully, the excerpt is the latest battle report on the Xiliang front, Xue Wen is in charge of the Inspector's Mansion is naturally well aware of most of the things presented on the fold, but he doesn't know that there are as many as two percent, Xue Wen is secretly frightened, but he is also more jealous of the secret agent in the hands of Emperor Li Jun of Qin, but the most important thing is that he has always been moody and angry, and when he continued to look down, his brows had already wrinkled into a Sichuan character unconsciously.

After a long time, he said slowly: "Your Majesty, I wonder if everything said in it is true?"

"The widow still knows a lot about Jing Chun, if he is not eighty percent sure, he will not present it to the widow. ”

Hearing this, Xue Wen hurriedly knelt down and said: "This matter is a dereliction of duty on the part of the minister, and I hope that Your Majesty will condemn the minister!"

"You are not to blame for this, you warned the widow of the risk of this matter, in the final analysis, the widow made a mistake, and looked down on the uncivilized people, and called you tonight not to ask you to blame, but to discuss with you how to solve the matter. ”

Xue Wen pondered for a while after hearing this, and then said slowly: "This time, this never-before-seen Xiliang cavalry has the shadow of Anxia's cavalry in it, and Anxia's unique horse hook lock is also frequently used in the front-line battle report, Weichen can't help but be a little curious about what role Anxia plays in this rebellion?"

"This is also what the widow has been worried about, among the several external forces bordering us, only Anxia can pose a threat to my Great Qin, I remember that in the twenty-third year of Hongzheng, the emperor wanted to drive the imperial conquest to exterminate Anxia, in order to stabilize my Great Qin for hundreds of years, and the most unfortunate should also occupy the north of Yinshan, so as to leave a buffer for the future confrontation between the two countries, but at that time, the first assistant Xia Ji was desperately blocked, risking death to admonish this to the years of war, the treasury was empty, the people were hungry and starved, for fear of arousing the people everywhere, so he stopped, but he was also beaten to death by nearly a hundred court staffs, and was beaten half to death, the widow was still young and had a lot of resentment towards his father, but I didn't dare to say it, now it seems that my father's choice back then was undoubtedly right, after all, it was to raise tigers. ”

After hearing this, Xue Wen didn't dare to comment on the events of that year, but said solemnly: "The emperor had already foreseen that he would garrison 200,000 troops in the two southeastern counties during his reign, otherwise it might be a different situation now." ”

Hearing this, Li Jun didn't know what to think of, and said to himself with a dark face: "I have spent my whole life trying to catch up with my father's footsteps, but in the end, I am not as good as half of his old man's courage and vision. ”

Xue Wen has been by the emperor's side for more than 20 years, and he has been in charge of the Inspector's Mansion for nearly 20 years, for the current emperor to say who knows the emperor best, he is called the first, no one dares to call the second, this generation of emperors is a little indecisive in the eyes of outsiders, and even a little weak, but in his eyes, the rest of the people in the past dynasties except the emperor are not enough for him, and the current emperor who seems to be a little confused has a more detailed mind than a woman, and when it comes to means and imperial power, it will not be worse than anyone, but he objectively understands the environment he is in, so he is not as domineering as other emperors, but the more he says this, the more careful Xue Wen is。

"Why should the saint be arrogant, since the saint ascended the throne, whether it is from the people's livelihood, the system and the changes in military affairs, whether it is from the Manchu Dynasty civil and military or the people in the royal territory, although it is not as good as the emperor, but if it is said that he is not even half of his old man, the minister will never dare to agree. ”

No matter how shrewd a person is, he doesn't dislike a lot of sycophants, no matter what he says, he must be extremely useful in his heart, Li Jun is naturally no exception, he waved his hand with a smile and said, "Qiyuan, when did you learn Li Guogong's set." ”

When Xue Wen heard this, his heart was secretly dark, and he immediately saluted: "The minister doesn't dare!"

"Okay, let's not talk about that, the main reason for calling you over today is to discuss a countermeasure with you, and let's put the others aside first. ”

After hearing this, Xue Wen glanced at the emperor and said, "I think Your Majesty already has a perfect plan in mind, and the minister only needs to do his best to implement it." ”

"Those who know me are really not Qiyuan" immediately stopped talking nonsense: "I want to send 200,000 elite soldiers to drive the expedition in person, and I want to drive Xiliang back to the west of the barren wall in this battle, I don't know what the Qing family thinks?"

Xue Wenzhi was half-open, half-loud and couldn't speak, and after a while, he swallowed and foamed: "Does Your Majesty need to discuss this matter with the first assistant and the cabinet ministers?"

"Count on them? Hmph! The daylilies are cold!" Li Jun snorted coldly.

Seeing this, Xue Wen didn't dare to say much, so he had to stand with his hands hanging on the side, not knowing what he was thinking, Li Jun said directly: "This time, the most reassuring thing for the widow is Nanzhao, so this time I called you to come to ask you to put seventy percent of your energy into Nanzhao. “

Xue Wen didn't say much when he saw that the emperor had become a bamboo in his chest, but after hesitating for a while, he said softly: "Then Li Guogong and the general of the chariot cavalry are here?"

"The widow will order Gan Ping to go with me this time, so don't worry, Li Guogong's side..." Speaking of which, Li Jun snorted coldly and continued: "At that time, I will also order him to lead 30,000 dragon and tiger horsemen to change the defense to Runan County, and he will not dare to make big waves when he thinks about it." “

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

......

In the increasingly serious situation in Xiliang, for some reason, Qin Emperor Li Junyue sat firmly in Diaoyutai, except for Xue Wen, almost all the ministers of the DPRK and China were a little uneasy after learning about the front-line battle report, while some politically astute people had already felt the undercurrent of increasing agitation under the calm in some inconspicuous personnel transfers in their daily lives.

Since the opening of the dynasty of Emperor Taizu, the royal family has been holding on to the four forces in the hands of no one can touch the fingers, Qingniuwei, Longhuwei, City Defense Division, and the leaders of the four forces of the Imperial City Division are all the closest clans of the royal family since the beginning of the dynasty, and even the side line is not touched, and in the last hundred years, there is one more power, that is, the Inspector's Mansion, and the Dragon and Tiger Guard has only changed the guard once when the emperor has just ascended the throne since this dynasty, and this change of guard will definitely cause the government and the opposition to shake, and Li Jun is obviously determined not to care about those discussions at this time.

The emperor farted and ran out of breath below, at this time, the huge machine of the Inspector's Mansion had been accelerated, and the successive personnel transfers and focus had begun to tilt, and even the Yancheng side did not seem to be so important.

The bright moon is in the sky, and the silent night from time to time makes a cry of "know, know", as if to vent all the dissatisfaction and resentment at the last pass of life, and not far away there is a three-in and three-out courtyard, which is also one of the big families in the suburbs of Yancheng, and there are two people in cloth clothes sitting on the bench at the door, as if they are coveting a trace of coolness outside the courtyard and are drowsy.

At first glance, it seems to be just an ordinary big family, but there are more than a dozen big men standing in the courtyard, looking through the light, these people are all brown tight-fitting officials, with the distinctive Yan Yu knife pinned to their waists, except for the Inspector's Mansion, no one will dress like this, and more than a dozen people from the Inspector's Mansion seem to be dumb, which is even more strange under the silent night sky.

The government examination in March can be said to have been held in great anticipation, and unlike the previous nearly 1,000 people, this time there were as many as 2,000 people, due to the long distance

, The students in the remote areas of their hometowns are also coming one after another, but most of these people are real people, but they didn't have enough entanglement for themselves to go back and forth in the past, but now they don't have this idea, as long as they can rush to the imperial capital, they are already satisfied.

As for the matter of coming back, they don't think about it at all, if they pass the exam, they don't have to worry, even if they can't pass the exam, most of them will have no face to return to their hometowns, it can be said that everyone's confidence is very high, of course, the difficulty of this government exam has also increased a lot invisibly.

But when Qin Han realized this problem, he was also a little helpless, but compared to those students, fortunately, he didn't have to worry about entanglement, even if he couldn't pass the exam, he wouldn't have the mentality of facing Jiangdong's fathers without shame.

The good news is that half a month ago, I learned that Nanzhao had agreed to exchange Qin Jian, and now the exchange has been completed, and I am rushing towards the imperial capital, and when I arrive in the imperial capital, it should be in May, and if nothing else, the father and son will meet in the imperial capital.

When Qin Han learned the news, he also breathed a long sigh of relief, he finally didn't have to pretend to smile in front of his mother and Feng'er, just when he was thinking about it alone, suddenly a person came over and patted him on the shoulder and said, "Isn't your kid not coming to take the government exam?"

Raising his head, it was naturally Ji San's familiar face, thinking about it, he hadn't seen this kid for more than half a year, and he couldn't help but feel a little cordial, and then said with a smile: "I thought about it later, a fool like you came to participate in the government exam, if I don't come, I won't be blind to my talent." ”

"I haven't seen you for almost a year, and when I see you, I'll fucking hurt me, can this friend still do it?"

"Alright, alright...."

Before the words were finished, the sound of chirping in front of them attracted the attention of the two, and along the noisy voice, I saw a group of people talking non-stop around the two people, one of them was dressed in a gorgeous costume, with a fair face, holding a folding fan and constantly arching his hands around, and behind him was a young man in a blue cloth robe, holding all kinds of objects in his hands, it seemed that he should be a scholar.

"Senior Brother Tang is good!"

"Senior Brother Tang is out of the horse, you will definitely have a seat in the top three this time. ”

"Where, where. ”

Ji San looked at this scene and said with a strange expression: "Do you know this guy?"

Qin Han shook his head in a daze, and Ji San said again: "There are a few guys next to him, they all look seventeen or eighteen, and they still call him senior brother, this stinky foot is too shameless." ”

Qin Han coughed embarrassedly twice and laughed and scolded: "You kid is really learning in the belly of a dog, don't you know the truth of respecting the master?"

"Isn't this just the beginning of the exam..."

Thousands of people gathered at the gate of Yancheng School is naturally a mess, there are shouting and shouting, there are people looking left and right, and there are people who are running along the flow of people, it seems that most of them have fallen something, and after half a stick of incense, with the arrival of a pair of soldiers, the scene quickly quieted down, and the rules are naturally the old rules, but this time the training official was changed to Mu Jinyuan, the new prefect of Yancheng.
