Zhang Shuo rubbed his eyes, as if he didn't believe that the grass sprouts he had missed so much before had really appeared in front of him.

"You can't be a ghost, right?"

The grass sprouts were ashamed and lightly stabbed at him.

Zhang Shuo was so frightened that he hurriedly dodged away.

"So Tiqi actually let you go?"

"Do you want me to be locked up to death?"

"I don't want to!"

Zhang Shuo denied it, and then his expression was solemn: "You shouldn't have come." ”

Qingcao Ya'er thought for a while and said, "You shouldn't come, but you shouldn't come." ”

"I'm here to see Xie Shence."

"I'm here to kill Xie Shence."

Zhang Shuo was taken aback again, and said with some horror: "Fortunately, you haven't done it yet." ”

Qingcao Ya'er opened her mouth and said, "I've already done it." ”

Zhang Shuo was dumbfounded: "You didn't succeed, you failed, how could you still be alive?" ”

Qingcao Ya'er was embarrassed again, and said, "Am I so vulnerable! ”

"Yes."

"You"

"Don't be angry, don't be angry, I haven't seen you for a long time, and it's not a good sign to draw a knife when you meet."

Qingcao Ya'er put away her sword, and then said, "Hurry up." Thank you for killing you. ”

Zhang said indifferently: "I know." ”

"Knowing you also"

"Just because I knew he was going to kill me, I wouldn't leave! If I stay here, he doesn't dare to do it for fear of face, but as soon as he leaves Yangzhou City, he will do it, so how dare I leave now. ”

Qingcao Ya'er nodded and said, "Prepare bath water for me." ”

Zhang said that the chicken nodded like a peck of rice, and then ran to the back kitchen to do it himself

"So, Zhang said that he didn't leave for so long because he was afraid that Xianggong would kill him?"

Xie Shence smiled: "Not bad. I didn't mean to kill him before, that's why he dared to leave and come again. But when he came back after he participated in the wedding of the fifth prince, I knew that he was relatively complete, so I was ready to kill him. He may have felt it too, so he didn't dare to leave at this time, so he consumed it. ”

"Cocooning yourself?"

"It's not very appropriate, it can only be said that curiosity kills the cat."

"What does that mean?"

Xie Shence said with a smile: "I can thwart the beehive in Daba City, and I can encircle and suppress the bandits in Taihang Mountain on the Yellow River Beach, and most importantly, I can defeat Xu Huan Bai Liangyu For a hero like me, Zhang said that even if he is an important minister of the enemy country, he is also admired, so he naturally wants to get close to me, let me"

"Shameless!"

Xie Shence smiled a little embarrassedly: "Actually, it's about the same." It's just that Zhang said that his curiosity is too heavy, so he is in a dilemma now. If I go and don't come back, I won't have a chance to kill him. ”

"Did Zhang say it was a cat?"

"You know, cats have always been curious"

"I don't know."

"Well, in short, Zhang said that in the face of temptation, the resistance is still not enough."

Xie Shence thought for a while and said: "Qingcao Ya'er was imprisoned in the Tiqi Division, and now that she has come out, there can only be an explanation, Zhou Jinmian let her go." ”

Wang Jiehua was puzzled: "What does this mean?" ”

"Zhou Jinmian will not find out with his conscience that a lover will eventually become a family or something, in his opinion, it is just the inevitability of a few people, which will be Zhang Shuo and the grass sprouts. He must have a reason for doing this. ”

Xie Shence paused and said, "However, I can't guess what he means. ”

"Heh, after all, I've been away from the Knights for too long and have become sluggish."

The two talked a lot more, and fell asleep in the middle of the night.

In the evening of the next day, Xie Shence, who had been sitting in the study for a day, asked Xie Di to send a letter to Zhang Shuo.

"Let's go? So kind? It can't be a fraud, right? ”

Qingcao Ya'er didn't know why, and said, "Could it be that His Majesty personally summoned you back?" ”

Zhang Shuo shook his head and said, "Impossible." Your Majesty understands that rushing me back at this time will only strengthen Xie Shence's determination to kill me, even the great general and the great Sinong will not do this. Because the more they need me, the more important I am, and the more important it is for Xie Shence to get rid of them as soon as possible. So it won't be them. ”

"But why do you say it won't be the Great Si Nong?"

Zhang said that he was surprised, and some didn't understand why Qingcao Yaer said this.

However, after a few breaths, Zhang Shuo understood, so he frowned and said, "Da Si Nong will not do this. ”

Qingcao Ya'er glanced at Zhang Shuo, and then walked in, ready to pack his things.

Zhang Shuo sighed, a little distressed.

Green Grass Sprouts had been imprisoned by the Ti Cavalry for three or four years, and naturally suffered a lot of torture. At the same time, because of the difficult and boring years in the Tiqi Division, the grass sprouts also figured out a lot of things.

Among them, there is a resentment against the great Si Nong of the Qin State and the beekeeper Bailidu.

She was trapped in an enemy country, and after so many years, Bailidu didn't even have the slightest question, no wonder she said what she just said.

Zhang said that he understood, but as far as he was concerned, it was naturally impossible to defend Bailidu, and there was no way to make Qingcao Ya'er calm his anger, so he could only smile bitterly.

In the Xie family's old mansion in the distance, Xie Shence touched his chin and looked at the stars, and said with a smile: "That's it, it's nothing more than provoking contradictions, anyway, that woman has been squeezed out of value, and she can't be used anymore." ”

Zhou Jinmian failed to become the commander of the Tiqi Division, and Xie Shence did not become the dean of the Discipline Academy in the Jiangwutang, and the Jin capital gradually no longer had the "myth" of Xie Shence.

It's only been half a year, and many people have become accustomed to the days without thanksgiving.

The Qi royal party is getting stronger and stronger, and the prince is becoming more and more secluded, although there is no scandal, but the princeling's concession, the officials are not difficult to see.

Since Emperor Jin was absent from the early dynasty a year ago, he has returned to the appearance of the British lord in the past, the military and government are in good order, and the Great Jin Dynasty is gradually recovering.

It is said that the Yan people have disturbed the customs from time to time, and it is said that Murong Cheng, the eldest prince of the Yan Kingdom, was determined to be ashamed and cut off Sima Bi's head as a urinal. However, the northern army was tough, and Murong Cheng basically made little progress.

It's okay in the northwest, it is said that Yuwen Xianbei and Tuoba Wang Ting fought, although the scale is not large, but it is really stale, and it is difficult to say whether it will be won or lost.

Taking advantage of the momentum of the two Xianbei fights, He Lou Xianbei disturbed the level again, but the sporadic battles, although they attracted the attention of some people, were not a big deal after all.

The Qin people have always been very "peaceful", so people's attention was attracted by the Xianbei people.

Yuwen Xianbei's sense of existence, compared to Tuoba Wangting and the Duan Department back then, after all, is basically equivalent to nothing, few people will talk about them, and even in the Jin capital, many people think that Yuwen Xianbei is just a slightly larger grassland tribe.

The outbreak of war between the two Xianbei this time surprised some people.

"Yuwen Xianbei is really that powerful?"

"Of course the uninformed Tubunzi Yuwen Department is strong."

"Why haven't you heard of it before?"

"Just because you haven't heard of it doesn't mean you're not strong."

"That is, those who can fight with the royal court have not failed so far, so naturally they will not be weak."

"I heard that the beast-devouring army of the second prince of Tuoba has lost the battle"

"Who did it? What is the Beast Eater? ”

"It's not a thing, it's said to be very good."

"How is it better than the Great Whitefish Cavalry?"

"This is an idiot, big white fish, the first cavalry in the world"

"No, you still lost to Modao?"

“”

With the passage of time and the war, some news about the Yuwen Department was gradually deliberately released by the Ti Cavalry Division.

Eight troops, thirteen armies, 100,000 strings, 1 million cattle and sheep

For a while, Jin was full of sighs.

In the imperial study, Emperor Jin finished reading the last letter and stretched his waist, and Gonggong Cai heard the voice, hurriedly brought a basin of water in, twisted a towel and handed it over.

Emperor Jin wiped his face and said: "The proposal of the court to set up a political hall has already caused a lot of uproar, and now the martial arts hall has only started for a short time, and the Great Jin Dynasty is the time to accumulate strength, it is really nonsense."

Gonggong Cai smiled softly: "The old slave thinks that the political hall or something, but it is also a good thing. ”

Emperor Jin's eyes lit slightly, and then he smiled and said: "You eunuch, what are you talking about, do you want to do politics?" ”

When Gonggong Cai heard this, he was so frightened that he hurriedly knelt down and said in horror: "Your Majesty, how dare the old slave have such an idea!" The old slave just felt that His Majesty was correcting the recital every day until late at night, working hard, and the old slave was worried about the dragon body. ”

"It is a good thing to say that the political affairs hall is because all the ministers and ministers can share the worries of Your Majesty, and Your Majesty can rest earlier every day. Your Majesty, the ancestral system has a saying, eunuchs are not allowed to interfere in politics, violators are punished with capital punishment, and the old slave does not dare to say anything."

Emperor Jin smiled: "You eunuch, what are you doing kneeling, I'm just joking, I'm nervous like this"

After some comfort, Gonggong Cai wiped his tears and stood up aggrieved.

Emperor Jin looked at the music in front of him and said softly, "Who said it wasn't? I'm worried about it, but in fact, I just think that I am the only one who rules the court, and they don't have a chance to speak. ”

When Gonggong Cai heard this, he really wanted to tear his mouth apart. It was just a casual sentence of seven thousand taels of silver, which made Emperor Jin say such taboo words.

I heard it! In case there is something in the future, Emperor Jin will not be the first to take his own knife? Father-in-law Cai was in a cold sweat and could barely stand.

However, he was a little excited in his heart, if he was so taboo, Emperor Jin actually didn't shy away from himself, it could really be regarded as "listening to the heavens".

What a great honor, in the entire palace, who else can enjoy this honor except for the queen mother?

Who else!

Gonggong Cai was scared for a while, and he was looking forward to the next content.

"Actually, I'm really not a person who has the final say, I said that the Northwest Army should be cut in half, and it can be cut out? I said that if you don't fight with the Yan people, you won't fight? I said that if the Qin people don't fight, the Qin people will stop? Even if it's a domestic matter, I don't have the final say alone. It's really a lack of people's hearts. ”

"Songming, the people of the world, there are bad people, my officials, are not all good people, they always want to speak, to express opinions, to point fingers, I can't wait for all the people in the world to listen to them, and they have to revolve around them to be satisfied."

Grandpa Cai suddenly burst into tears.

Because Emperor Jin said his name.

His name is Cai Songming, he entered the palace at the age of six, and when he was twenty years old, he followed the then Emperor Qi and accompanied Emperor Jin for more than 40 years.

It seems like it's been a long time since I've heard such a name, right?

Emperor Jin looked at Gonggong Cai, who couldn't suppress his crying, and smiled softly: "You are not like them. You have always thought about me, and you have never been the only one in your eyes, so I trust you, and you have always been in charge of Zhu Pi. Some people say that I am stupid, and I actually let a eunuch palm Zhu, the sin is unforgivable, but I don't care. ”

Gonggong Cai fell to his knees on the ground, unable to help himself.

Emperor Jin smiled and said, "Get up, I'm going to rest." ”

On the third day of the dynasty, the political hall was established.

However, the five scholars who entered the political hall were not happy, because Emperor Jin dismissed one squire and three squires by the way after passing the resolution of the political hall.

The left attendant of the Ministry of Works, as well as the three attendants of the Criminal Department and the Ministry of Rites, were forked down by Ti Cai and stripped of their official uniforms.

"Hehe, Your Majesty's reaction is so fierce."

"Killing chickens and monkeys, just a warning."

"Xiang Fei, Ou Mo, Liu Qiao, and Fei Wujiang were dismissed and investigated, and they will never be hired, and there must be something strange about them."

"Out of the way?"

"It's also possible that the Knights."

"Impossible, the path we took was all in the palace, and the cavalry couldn't get in."

"There is something wrong with the people in the palace."

"Cai Songming! This old dog! ”

"Hateful! It has long been said that geldings cannot be trusted! ”

"Sooner or later, we will have to get rid of him!"

The establishment of the political hall has become the biggest thing in Jindu, that is, the students of the martial arts hall have also actively discussed.

"Shunxing, do you know the political affairs hall?"

"Li Feiyu, this kind of thing" Gu Shunxing nodded his brain and said, "I should know before you." ”

Li Feiyu smiled and said, "It's because you know before me, so I want to ask, what do you think." ”

"How can you look at it, I'm afraid the ministers will have to work in vain."

Li Feiyu looked at Gu Shunxing's indifferent appearance, walked straight over, without any intention of stopping, and said: "Hey, don't go, tell me, do you know something, tell me quickly, my father may ask when I go home tomorrow, I can't ask three questions." ”

Gu Shunxing stopped and said, "Li Feiyu, I don't know if General Li will test you." I only know that in the afternoon class, Lord Zhuguo will definitely make you look good. If I'm not mistaken, Lord Zhuguo asked everyone to hand in a copy of the policy of the Ministry of Liberal Arts, and you haven't written it yet, have you? ”

Li Feiyu looked at Gu Shunxing's dashing back, and instantly changed his bitter gourd face.

"Lord Zhuguo, this, Lord Zhuguo. Hey, don't go! I'll copy yours! ”

"It's late, I've already handed it in."

Of course, the conversation between General Li's son Li Feiyu and Gu Shunxing was just a special case, and they didn't care much about the political affairs hall. Li Feiyu asked him to talk about his opinion, but in fact, it was just because Gu Shunxing's little sister came to visit Wutang with her family, and she happened to be seen by Li Feiyu.

Well, just exactly.

Gu Shunxing returned to the small courtyard he had spent 30,000 taels of silver to buy, went up to a two-story small building, and a servant came up to help change clothes, Gu Shunxing tidied up his clothes and said, "Is there any news today?" ”

"Lord Dean, I haven't replied yet, but it's estimated that it's coming soon, just in the past two days."

The dean that the servant said was the dean of the Wutang Discipline Academy, Xie Shence.

Gu Shunxing nodded and said, "Sir's opinion is not much different from mine. However, I can't say for sure, after all, Mr.'s vision is much more long-term than ordinary people. Li Feiyu came to ask me today, probably because his sister Miss Li asked him to ask. Hehe, this Miss Li is not good at finding her husband's house, but has been relying on the women's school and caring about these things, it's really"

Gu Shunxing couldn't think of image words for a while, so he subconsciously thought of Xie Shence.

"Heh, in the words of Mr., it's about an idle egg that hurts."

However, as soon as he finished speaking, Gu Shunxing's facial muscles twitched a little, and he couldn't laugh anymore.

Miss Li is a woman, and there will be no eggs to use to be idle.

After changing clothes and eating, Gu Shunxing lay on the cool bed for a while, but thinking that Xie Shence really didn't mean to come back, his heart was also a little irritable.

A lot of things happened during this time, one made him feel thrilling more than the other, and he subconsciously wanted to find some security, but the only person who could make him feel at ease was embroidering in Yangzhou City at this time.

Well, embroidery, Gu Shunxing felt that his cognition was about to be subverted.

Isn't it important that national events are not embroidered?

Last time, he said something about the princelings, and wanted to ask Xie Shence to help with reference, but although Xie Shence replied with some feasible methods, he mentioned at the end: I've been embroidering recently, don't bother me with small things.

Gu Shunxing clearly remembered that at that time, he spilled a bowl full of bird's nest on the bookcase, and also wet the homework assigned by Xie Yi, and when he arrived at the lecture hall, he was also verbosed by Xie Yi.

"Embroidery, really, what to embroider, Mr. is really boring"

Gu Shunxing chattered, complaining and thanking Shence for staying out of the matter.

In Yangzhou City, Xie Shence threw an embroidered cloth on the ground and said loudly: "Don't do it, don't do it!" It's been a long time, and it's not going to let people live! The eyes and fingers are not my own! ”

As he spoke, he hugged his chest to show his determination.

Wang Jiehua was a little distressed, and a little angry, and said, "Then let's rest." ”

"Don't do it, rest for a lifetime! If you just pinch me, I won't do it! ”

Wang Jiehua heard it loudly, this was not the first time Xie Shence had sprinkled it like this, so she threw the embroidered cloth on the ground and turned to leave.

"Love to embroider or not embroider"

Xie Shence looked at the back of Wang Jiehua leaving, and muttered: "Hmph, my mother-in-law won't go to the house for three days."

"Don't you dare to say it to your face." Caiyi covered her mouth and smiled behind Xie Shence's back.

Last month, under the auspices of Lao Taijun, Caiyi successfully became Xie Shence's first concubine.

Xie Shence sighed, then picked up the embroidered cloth and said, "If you don't embroider, you won't embroider, can you still eat me?" ”

As he spoke, he walked in the direction where Wang Jiehua left.

Caiyi smiled, and then continued to embroider.

The days of Yangzhou City are probably like this, Xie Shence and Wang Jiehua are angry, but every two or three days, they will pick up the embroidered cloth again.

The artillery battalion Xie Shence has rarely been there, and Zuo Tiehammer is said to have found a way and is struggling to support the physical experiment.

Last month, the artillery battalion repelled three groups of spies, but failed to identify them.

The war between the Ubunbu and the Tuoba Imperial Court was bound to last for a long time, but neither side would make a big move.

Xie Yi pointed fingers in the martial arts hall, adding another record to the name of human slaughter, and Xie Shang lost his sense of existence in the Jin capital again.

Xie Shence knew it, but he didn't say anything, except for Gu Shunxing's need to reply to some necessary letters, basically he had cut off contact with Jindu.
