Xia Hongsheng left the palace, got into the carriage outside the palace, explained to Qi Yong, and then went straight to Dongshi.

When he arrived in Dongshi, Xia Hongsheng did not go directly to Yanyulou, but went to the book house first.

"Childe, you're here!" When the shopkeeper of the book house saw Xia Hongsheng entering, he hurriedly went over and saluted.

Xia Hongsheng nodded and asked, "Are they here?" ”

"You sons have been waiting for their sons for a long time." The shopkeeper of the bookstore replied respectfully to Xia Hongsheng: "They are all waiting for the son on the second floor." ”

"Okay, you can get busy." Xia Hongsheng said to the shopkeeper of the bookstore, and then went up to the second floor.

The second floor is very peaceful, reading books, drinking tea, or drinking tea while reading, or whispering in a low voice.

Xia Hongsheng saw at a glance the prematurely developed Cheng family brothers and Wei Chi Baolin, who were crowded into the largest private seat.

walked in and found that sure enough, everyone had already arrived, and even Li Ke and Li Tai, who were far away in Jingyang Academy, had already arrived.

"Jingshi, why is it so slow?" The eldest grandson Chong asked: "I said to go to Yanyu Tower, but you asked us to gather here first, but I don't know why?" ”

Xia Hongsheng sat down, poured a cup of tea and drank it all by himself, wiped his mouth, and then said to everyone: "I invite the brothers to gather here today, because I want to ask the brothers for help. ”

"Just say it, it's such a god-like chatter." Cheng Chumo asked, "What's the matter?" Master Yuanzheng commanded! Hahaha! ”

"Brothers, you all know about it, the Wa Kingdom sent an envoy to our Tang Dynasty." Xia Hongsheng said: "Do you know what these envoys from the Japanese Kingdom are sending to the Tang Dynasty to do when they come to our Tang Dynasty? ”

"I heard the old man say that he wants to learn from our Datang people." Fang Yiai touched his chin and said, but unfortunately he didn't have a beard on his chin yet.

Li Chongyi also nodded and said, "My father said that His Majesty has agreed to the request of the Japanese State to send an envoy to the Tang Dynasty, and has also opened a Sifang Academy in Guozijian, so that all countries that are attached to our Tang Dynasty can send envoys to the Sifang Academy to learn our Tang Dynasty things." Brother Sheng, didn't you talk about a country's technology, especially the leading technology, that must be kept secret? If those people have learned our Datang things, wouldn't our Datang have no advantages at all? ”

"Hehe, don't worry, brothers, that is, in front of your brothers, the younger brother will show his bottom." Xia Hongsheng smiled very sinitiously and said, "Your Majesty has already spoken, and only rotten Confucians are allowed to be taught in the Quartet Academy." The criterion for studying in the Sifang Academy is eight words, take the dross and discard the essence! ”

"Wonderful!" Everyone is not stupid, and when they think about it, they understand the intention, and they can't help but slap the table and shout.

"Silence! Be quiet! Xia Hongsheng reminded him, and then lowered his voice and said: "The younger brother was ordered by His Majesty to pretend to be a corrupt and corrupt traitor to deal with those Tang envoys, so as to lead them by the nose and win their trust." Tonight, the envoy of the Japanese Kingdom, Inoue Sanda, was going to have a banquet for the younger brother in Yanyu Building, to thank the younger brother for 'helping them persuade His Majesty to agree to let them learn the teachings of the Tang Dynasty', haha! ”

When everyone heard this, they immediately became interested and said, "Oh? Tell me about it! ”

"It's nothing, it's just that Your Majesty and the little brother acted in a play together. The Tang envoy wanted to meet His Majesty, and His Majesty ordered his younger brother to go and respond. The younger brother first gave them a black face, and then deliberately pretended to be a corrupt official to ask for bribes. After the Tang envoys bribed, the younger brother handed over all the property to His Majesty, and then went to the Tang envoys and sang a red face, making them feel that as long as they bribed the younger brother, they could let the younger brother help them do things. His Majesty also really received them, and agreed to let them learn the teachings of the Tang Dynasty. Xia Hongsheng squeezed his eyes and said, "In order to win over the younger brother, those Tang envoys wanted to entertain the younger brother tonight in the name of rewarding the younger brother. ”

"Good fellows! Brother Sheng'er, this insidious! Li Yexu smiled evilly: "Those Tang envoys also said that they could use Brother Sheng'er, but they never wanted to be sold by Brother Sheng'er, and I have to thank Brother Sheng'er!" Haha, let them learn, learn them all, one or two learn to be those rotten Confucians, so that they can go back and bring disaster to themselves! ”

"However, what does Brother Sheng want our brother to help with?" Cheng Chumo asked.

"It's tonight." Xia Hongsheng said with a smile: "Later, you will go to Yanyu Tower with me, and I will introduce you to the envoy of the Tang Dynasty of the Wa Kingdom." After all the brothers are nobles, the envoy sent by the Japanese State to Tang will definitely take this opportunity to deliberately befriend you. You will take this opportunity to lead those envoys sent by the Japanese State to eat, drink and have fun, how to enjoy how to come, how to come, anyway, it is to let the Japanese send Tang to get drunk and drunk, happy and not to go on the right road. Brothers, you know what I mean, right? ”

"Hahahaha, aren't our brothers the best at this?" Li Yexu, a black-bellied guy, laughed very insidiously: "Brother Sheng, don't worry, just those Japanese people who have never seen the world, I promise that they will never want to go back to the Japanese country!" ”

Everyone understood what Xia Hongsheng meant, so they all laughed, and they all rubbed their hands together. These are all gentlemen in Chang'an City for many years, although they have entered the military academy or Jingyang Academy in recent years, they have all embarked on the right path and changed their temperament, but they have not forgotten this trick.

Xia Hongsheng nodded, and reminded: "However, you brothers also have to pay attention, these envoys sent by the Japanese State to the Tang Dynasty are so big that even Your Majesty and the younger brother are very surprised, that day the Tang envoy sent by the Japanese State wanted to bribe the younger brother, and sent the younger brother a whole ten large boxes of treasures, as well as half a large amount of coral!" You brothers have to hold on to it! ”

"Hiss......" When everyone heard this, they all gasped.

"Brother Sheng, you said those Japanese people are so rich?" Wei Shuyu asked in surprise: "There are so many things, I'm only afraid of hundreds of thousands!" ”

"The land of the Japanese country is full of mountains, and the arable land is scarce. It's not even as rich as my Datang family. These things are nothing more than the people's fat and people's ointment that they frantically looted before leaving. Xia Hongsheng said very contemptuously: "Those envoys sent by the Japanese State to make friends with you when the time comes, they must also be very expensive, you brothers must not be fooled, just have fun, you can't accept anything." So as not to spoil Your Majesty's major affairs, but also damage the reputation of your heirlooms, and even implicate your uncles, and ruin the reputation of your uncles, can you brothers? ”

Seeing that Xia Hongsheng said seriously, everyone nodded solemnly: "Brother Sheng, don't worry, we understand!" ”

Xia Hongsheng nodded: "Okay, brothers, go!" Go to the Smoke and Rain Building! ”

(There is only one shift today, today's final exam, Shi Xi was sent out to invigilate the exam, and there was no shuttle bus back to school when the invigilation was over, waiting for the principal to ride a motorcycle to pick up Shi Shi to return to school, it was already more than eight o'clock and almost nine o'clock.)
