In the city of Beijing in May, the temperature is gradually rising.

A group of soldiers and conscripts were moving bricks to repair the city wall under the sun, sweating like rain, showing the hard work of the construction project in this era. The Great Wall is the crystallization of Chinese wisdom, but it has also squeezed the countless blood and tears of our ancestors.

In a pergola, a young man in a six-rank official robe was hiding in the shade, leisurely sipping tea, his eyes sometimes looking at the busy crowd.

Lin Haoran was sent to the construction site again, this time with only one task, and that was to come here as a supervisor.

In fact, he is a real supervisor, after all, the imperial court has a special supervisor eunuch, and he, the cabinet secretary, is only here to run errands for Yan Song in name.

But no one dared to despise him, especially the arrogant Yan Shifan, although he hated him so much that he gritted his teeth, he didn't dare to touch him at all, and he had to deal with it carefully.

A shady place, a couch, a pot of good tea, plain and bland.

Just comparing with the hard-working crowd outside, Lin Haoran felt his happiness. He lay on a comfortable bamboo chair, looking at the light leaking from the pergola, and a smile tugged at the corner of his mouth.

But in the whirlpool of the court, he also has to weigh the pros and cons at all times. After being pitted by the tiger girl, he stepped on the wrecked boat in Wushan, which also forced him to change his attitude towards the Yan Party.

Because he had planned to hug Xu Jie's thick thighs before, he stayed away from Yan Dang and wanted to draw a clear line. But now it's different, and it's even more in one's own interests to be friendly with the Yan Party.

Especially in the matter of Wu Shan's entry into the cabinet, Yan Song's side is the biggest resistance. It is a bit impractical to bring Yan Song down, and it will only benefit Xu Jie, so repairing the relationship between the two parties is the best way to deal with it.

But what made him helpless was that he was now dutifully helping Yan Song on errands, although he won Yan Song's favor, he undoubtedly offended Yan Shifan. Especially a person with a character like Yan Shifan, if he really offends him miserably, I don't know what crazy things he will do.

"My lord, my father has instructed me to prepare lunch for you, please go to the house and enjoy it!" A butler came up from under the sun and said respectfully to his chair.

Lin Haoran's eyes opened, looking at Yan Shifan, the housekeeper, even if he guessed Yan Shifan's intentions. This has nothing to do, and it is either a traitor or a thief, and Yan Shifan is naturally making a small calculation.

The housekeeper watched Lin Haoran suddenly get up and stay away from him, and couldn't help but chuckle in his heart, thinking that he was like those Qingliu officials, and directly rejected his master's kindness. But soon found out that he had misunderstood, but saw Lin Haoran shouting his sister towards the city wall.

The blue sky and white clouds are like a picture.

On that section of the newly repaired wall, a little girl in a pale teal breast-length skirt was giggling, holding a kite string at the other end of the line, a kite in the shape of a carp, soaring in the blue sky.

Her moth brow was slightly open, her fair face was full of smiles, and she was looking triumphantly at the kite soaring in the sky. The thought of being able to fly a kite on this high wall excites her.

Suddenly, she heard her name being shouted from under the city wall, so she handed the kite string to the slender young girl next to her, and then came to the battlements, jumped on her little short legs, propped her hands on the bricks, and looked down from the city wall.

The sunlight was a little dazzling, so she squinted her eyes, her slender eyelashes were a little sparkling, and her beautiful eyes searched for people and things below, and soon she saw her brother's figure, and couldn't help but show a bright smile.

"It's time to eat!"

There was her brother's voice below, and the tiger girl answered crisply, and then hurriedly packed the kite with Ali, preparing to take the carp kite down to eat.

In fact, she didn't like carp kites very much, because she didn't think carp was domineering enough, but Ali said that there was a custom of hanging carp streamers in their hometown, so she obeyed Ali's wishes.

"Ali, wait a minute!"

After giving the kite to Ali, Tiger Niu ran to the battlements and glanced greedily out of the city walls. Greet the air full of nature, which is full of green meadows, lush mountain forests, and eagles soaring naturally.

It makes her very happy to be able to come to the outer city today, to be on top of this wall. She wanted to go up to the city wall to have a look, but the soldiers wouldn't let her, so this was one of her regrets.

My brother probably knew that she had this regret, so he told her about it when he came back yesterday, and today he brought her over as promised, which made her very happy.

In addition, she felt that her brother's promotion this time was good, just drink tea in the pergola, and it was not tiring at all. It's just that she doesn't understand why Yang Futian is obviously also an official, but he has to be tanned like black charcoal.

"Wow! Brother, the food here is much better than that of Hanlin Academy! ”

When Hu Niu arrived at the dining hall in the house, her eyes widened, and she looked up at Lin Haoran and sighed.

But I saw a table full of delicacies, including all kinds of seafood, all kinds of meat, and some rare fruits, and there were more than ten dishes. In addition, there is a beautiful maid waiting by the side.

Ali looked at the table full of delicacies, each dish looked exquisite, and she also looked at Lin Haoran in surprise, the gap between the food was really not ordinary.

"It's not going to be such a good meal every day, let's eat it!" Lin Haoran picked up a prawn and sent it to the bowl of the tiger girl, and said with a doting face.

The tiger girl reciprocated the peach, and also sandwiched a big crab and sent it to Lin Haoran's bowl, her face was red. She likes her brother to be so powerful, and she likes her brother to remember her everything.

The meal was very hearty and enjoyable.

Ali is slender, but the amount of food is not small at all, and she likes the seafood soup very much.

The tiger girl is still very young, but the amount of food is not small, and I like the braised lion head very much.

Among the three, it was Lin Haoran who was the most poor, eating very womanly, and was the first to put down the chopsticks.

Three people dealing with more than a dozen dishes is undoubtedly excessive, but if you add the rice bowl, it is different.

The rice bowl was a bottomless pit, and he cried bitterly to complete the cleaning of the meal, which was the most sumptuous meal he had ever eaten in his life. Especially the roasted deer leg, he never thought that he would be able to eat such a good thing in his life.

Not only did they eat, but when they left, the carriage also brought a box of silver taels.

This kind of good thing lasted for three whole days, so that Wu Daoxing and Tie Zhu came over, along with Xiao Jin and Xiao Bai, and enjoyed the food at the construction site together.

If it weren't for the need for someone to guard the door at home, the old housekeeper almost brought it over.

But things soon came to an abrupt end, and when Lin Haoran was using tea under the pergola, he ushered in the angry Yan Shifan.
