Section 3 Bad Water

There was a commotion in the river.

I don't know how many teams came from Guanzhong, and the noise of people and horses along the way made the people of Hezhong Mansion, who had not seen a war for more than ten years, a little stunned.

Everyone was talking about the war in the north, and the army of Yufuguo suddenly went south, and in the Jinju generation, they exchanged hands with the soldiers and horses of the imperial court, and the people knew that no matter who won on both sides, they would all serve and pay for food.

However, after all, they still hoped that the emperor could win, not because the people of Hezhong Mansion were talking about the emperor's so-called "Mandate of Heaven", or because they discriminated against disabled people like Yu Fuguo.

It's just that they simply don't want to let the war burn to their hometown, and the emperor won, and most of them are the bad luck of those fellow villagers in the north. And if the emperor is defeated, the army of Yufu Kingdom enters the customs through Hezhong Mansion, and it is rare to harass the place, causing many incidents.

Wang Baochen's soldiers and horses have all moved out of the city and camped outside the city, and most of the soldiers stationed in the city are now forbidden troops from Guanzhong.

The city of Hezhong Mansion is full of lights, and the festival makes the mansion even more full of flowers, which is all to welcome the emperor's arrival.

"Mr. Bai, your poems are my favorite. Wang Baochen looked at Bai Letian with a smile: "You are really the Wenqu star in the sky." ”

There was an embarrassing smile on the corner of Bai Letian's mouth, this Wang Jieshuai was really enthusiastic, but it was really uncomfortable to praise people.

It's like just now when he said that he liked Bai Letian's poetry, Bai Lotian was so stupid that he asked him which one he liked the most.

This replied, "Why should he cut the candles in the west window, but when it rained at night in Bashan." ", and then was pinched by the secretary next to him.

But Wang Jieshuai was still unwilling, and added another sentence.

"There is no idle land in the four seas, and the farmers are still starving to death. ”

When this sentence came out, the secretary next to Wang Jieshuai looked like he was dead.

Bai Lotian simply didn't ask, obviously this Wang Jieshuai memorized all the poems of the ministers around the emperor, and hurriedly used them to prevaricate. Bai Letianxin said that if he continued to talk, he would be able to talk about the poems of Li Deyu and Niu Shengyu.

So Bachelor Bai could only listen to Wang Baochen's repeated recitation of what "Wenqu Xing" and "Poetry Leader" were.

In fact, there is no way to do it, the emperor is in charge of the government, Wang Baochen will let his own festival envoy office to the emperor as the palace, His Majesty just entered Jinzhou There was an urgent report, and he couldn't take care of Wang Baochen for a while. But it's not good to cool down people's sincerity for the country, so they can only let Bai Lotian come out and top it.

Bai Lotian didn't stay up for long, and Yuan Zhen on the other side walked out step by step in his official uniform.

"Lotte, Your Majesty has summoned you. Wang Jieshuai hasn't seen him for a while. I don't see you in the moon, Brother Yi'an, your demeanor is better than in the past. ”

When Yuan Zhi went to the southeast on the order of the emperor before, he once crossed the Yellow River from the side of Hezhongfu, and Wang Baochen took good care of him at that time.

"Kind words from the Yuan Bachelor. Wang Baochen said with a smile. "Who is with whom we brothers. ”

"The marshal is wrong, Yuan Gong has won the trust of His Majesty, and now he is higher than the Ministry Langzhong, in charge of the financial power of the imperial court. Although he is no longer the clear stream grace of the Hanlin Bachelor, he has also joined the center, and in time, he will have to call Yuan Linggong. ”

Wang Baochen and Zhang Yi'an teased each other and coaxed Yuan Zhi to be comfortable.

"Brother Yi'an, it's a matter of time before the festival commander and the prince are reling, how can I compare with this little man. ”

Yuan Zhen is talking nonsense outside with their flower heads.

In the festival hall of the envoy of the Hedong Jiedu, the emperor was sitting on a chair looking at the book from Bai Yujing.

This time, the emperor personally conquest, nominally staying in Jingzhong to supervise the country is the king of light Li Chen, in fact, the center is still Han Gang, and the specific real power in Beijing is still in the hands of Jingzhao Yin Li Deyu and Li Shen, the prison envoy.

All the edicts and all kinds of information, no matter how small or small, were to be sent to the place where the emperor was stationed.

Li Xu was reading a piece of information sent by Li Shen at the moment, Bai Lotian was standing not far in front of him, and the new general of the right prison guard, Pu Xiang, a religious figure who used to work in Taiping Dao, was standing at the door to provide guards.

The emperor also pulled Puxiang out this time, firstly, considering that the imperial court is indeed lacking in available now, and secondly, it is also to reduce the risk of "adventures" for the people of Baiyujing.

The information is not very long, and it is mainly written about the movements of several people.

Tian Hongzheng had already passed Luoyang, and during this period, he and Pei Du, an old rival, got drunk with each other, and had received the news that the emperor had asked him to go north, and had turned north from Luoyang to go to Hezhong Mansion to make peace with the emperor.

Li Jifu passed Hanzhong Mansion and was about to arrive at Baiyujing, but according to the inside line in Lianyunzhai, he had met Mao Bingcheng and others in Lianyunzhai before, and it was said that they had a very happy conversation.

Lu Zhen has already set off from Jiangdong, and it will take about two months before he can return to Baiyujing. Since Lu Zhen left, there seemed to be some signs of instability among the people of Jiangdong, and the old "falling flowers and flowing water" Siqi of Jiangnan martial arts came forward, plus a few gangs, ready to set up the ring and elect the leader of the Jiangnan Martial Arts Alliance, which made a lot of noise, and the prison envoy suspected that someone was behind the trouble.

Li Xu put the information in his hand aside, and he turned his head to look at Bai Letian.

"How was your chat with Wang Jieshuai?"

"It's unbearable. Bai Lotian shook his head. "Wang Shuai is such a shrewd person, pretending to be a rough military general there, he plays hard, and Weichen accompanies him to play very hard. ”

"Oh?" Li Xu pulled a smile at the corner of his mouth, "Then I will reward you with something when I turn around." ”

"That's not necessary, what Your Majesty sent to the minister last time, the minister really can't afford it. ”

"I'll send you a pair of shuangshu, you're still not satisfied. ”

Bai Lotian has a respectful and insensitive attitude towards the emperor's so-called gift.

It is said that some time ago, the emperor liked to pay private visits to micro-services, that is, to go out of the palace blindly than to wander around. Accompanied by Li Deyu and Li Shen, he went to Bai Yujing's West Market for a turn, and when he turned around, he sent someone over and said that he wanted to send two maidservants to Bai Letian.

It is also said that it is a pair of pairs, and the two of them look exactly the same, even the whiteness of their skin is the same.

The so-called literati are probably a stone of commotion in the world, and these poor and sour are equally divided into eight buckets.

Bai Lotian never shied away from the characteristic that he liked women, and when he heard that the emperor was going to send the beauties in the palace to serve, Bai Lotian was naturally very happy, and wrote a poem to thank the emperor.

It's okay to brag to Li Deyu, Li Shen, and Yuan Zhen, you see, although you have great power, but in Your Majesty's heart, you are a working person, and our Bai Lotian is Your Majesty's bosom friend.

Blowing is blowing, but Li Deyu's sinister eyes and the vicious smile on the corners of his mouth made Bai Letian vaguely feel that this didn't seem to be as simple as jealousy.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for the two maids to come to the door under the leadership of the father-in-law in the palace, but they didn't disgust Bai Letian.

The two were seven feet tall, four feet in circumference, and the tendons on their shoulders were made of iron, and the best thing was that the skin of these two was indeed exactly the same, both were jet black, and the teeth in their mouths were so white that they were penetrating.

opened his mouth, he could eat three or four catties of food in one meal, and he was no worse than a man in his work.

Only then did Bai Lotian know what the emperor said about Shuangshu.

"Your Majesty, your name is not called Shuangshu, and the two hammers burned out of one furnace are almost the same. ”

Bai Lotian thought of the two hammers at home, and his heart was very unhappy.

Li Xu laughed when he heard this.

"Alright, go and invite that Wang Jieshuai in. ”8)
