Yin Fei came to the Imperial Garden completely by accident. After he summoned the ministers, he discussed the disaster relief plan for two hours in the Hall of Mental Cultivation, and they left at dusk.
He planned to continue processing the memorial, but the spies came to report suddenly, saying that Xiao Xichuan took advantage of the poor harvest of farmers in various parts of Dashun, and incited the people to rebel while attacking Dashun.
Robbing money, food, and women, even good-looking teenagers and men, are like a herd of animals.
If according to the original plan, they planned to give them some breathing room and wait for half a year to clean up, they couldn't wait any longer.
Yin Fei didn't care if it was evening or not, and immediately called Changqing to invite the general over. After thinking about it, she gave up and asked Changqing to change the way to invite the general's son, Li Zhai.
I remember that when he was still the prince, he was studying in the library of the palace with the sons of many ministers. The best ones were Shiyuan, Li Zhai and Shangguanyun.
When he first came to the throne, it was time to employ people. Shiyuan fought with him, and Li Zhai, a dog-headed military adviser, offered advice and advice.
Four ambitious teenagers are determined to make a career and rule the world.
There were some successes, the three of them attacked the frontier, and Shangguan Yun used thunderous means to deal with the rear properly, so that they had no worries.
In this way, although we are not in the same place, our hearts are together, we work hard in one direction, we know each other's existence, and we cooperate very well. After all, we are partners who grew up together.
It's a pity that after Shiyuan died, Li Zhai resigned and said he wanted to go around to change his mood. He had a heart disease, and Shangguan Yun was the only one who persisted.
Fast forward so many years, maybe it's time to call him back, Li Zhai seems to be waiting for him, he only went to study nearby, he can find someone at any time.
In the past two years, I still hesitated. I have already died for a lifetime, and I don't want to sacrifice more people. But sometimes some things have been engraved in my bones and cannot be changed.
Li Zhai is not a law-abiding person by nature, and a peaceful life may not be a good thing for him.
It's very strange, they haven't seen each other for many years, but when they meet, they don't feel strange, and they start to sarcastic each other when they open their mouths.
Li Zhai was dressed in red, and said seriously, "The emperor is becoming more and more domineering (eight)."
He replied, "You, an idler, are becoming more and more poor."
The two looked at each other and laughed at the same time.
"How have you been?" he asked.
"I am in Cao Ying and my heart is in Han."
Yin Fei glanced at him, "It seems that there is no need to ask, you are already prepared."
Li Zhai nodded, "I was still thinking about it two days ago, if you don't look for me, I will sneak into the palace to look for you."
The word 'secretly' inexplicably reminded him of when he was studying in the palace when he was a child, several people often pretended to be eunuchs and sneaked out to do something similar to experience.
At that time, newborn calves were not afraid of tigers and didn't know the danger at all, so they were lucky. Several people cooperated to investigate cases and catch thieves, and they didn't make any mistakes. Only occasionally people were injured, and then they covered up each other, and the wounds were healed. Immediately, he was like a wolf cub released again, unable to stay at all.
At first he refused, then...
"What is the emperor thinking? Are you smiling so happily?" Li Zhai asked curiously.
"It reminds me of our childhood." Yin Fei didn't hide it.
Li Zhai also laughed, "Also, you were the luckiest of us at that time. We were the only ones who were caught and punished. You were intact."
He is a prince with a noble status, it is impossible to punish him, at most let him copy a military book or something.
Yin Fei glanced at him, "Didn't I copy your art of war?"
Only he can imitate everyone's handwriting.
"That's what you're good for."
Yin Fei put her hands into her sleeves and did not deny it.
He is a rigid person. Before he was ten years old, he had been studying rote books, admitting mortal principles, and practicing mortal swords. Can fool him.
Tell him that he is the one who cleans the lecture hall today, and he cleans it obediently, and makes an appointment to shoot arrows together. It rains, but no one comes, so he waits until dawn by himself.
It can be said that he became enlightened later than others, and many years later.
Even he himself didn't expect that one day, he would actually become the Ninety-five Supreme Being who said nothing.
Although both the queen mother and the emperor father have told him many times that the heirs are weak, the burden of the country will definitely fall on him, so what he has accepted since childhood is the strategy of the emperor.
The prince Taibao taught him martial arts, the prince Taifu taught him literature, the prince Taishi taught him the art of war and strategy, everything was taught, except how to make friends? How to wear a belt? What if the head rope falls off
Before he was ten years old, he thought that he needed someone to feed him and he couldn't do it himself. The shoes accidentally ran off, and he didn't realize that he put his feet in until he waited for a long time for no one to put them on.
Living with others, I was surprised to find that everyone washed their faces, dressed themselves, and bathed by themselves, but he relied on others for everything.
He learns and sells now, and slowly learns bit by bit following everyone else.
At that time, everyone in the academy thought he was stupid, afraid of offending him, they dared not speak out, and called him an idiot behind his back.
In fact, he is not completely stupid, for example, whoever calls him, he will write it down, and he will be more ruthless in the martial arts competition. Anyway, no one in the entire book garden is his opponent, and he is the only one who can learn it after reading it.
The reason why I don’t know anything about it is because I have been served by others since I was a child, and it is difficult to change, but after teaching him, he learns the fastest, and he is the only one who can imitate everyone’s notes, including Master’s.
The master is old and has bad eyesight. He can make everyone rest by writing a letter.
The master has a bad memory, and often forgets whether he wrote it himself? Have you ever written it yourself? Looking at the handwriting, I thought it was really him who asked Muxiu.
Although he was unwilling, he still managed to 'talk what he said' and really let them go to rest, go out of the palace to practice and so on.
At the beginning, with his integrity, of course he would not do such a thing, until later he was taught badly by Shiyuan, Li Zhai and Shangguanyun.
At first it was just, pulling them away to prevent them from climbing over the wall, preventing them from stealing the big carp in the yard to cook in soy sauce, and preventing them from climbing trees to see the girls in the women's yard next door. Later...
In short, he who was originally simple has become more than simple, and he began to think about climbing over the wall, braised big carp, and lying on a tree to read a book.
I am still not interested in women. Instead of looking at people, it is better to look at the art of war and books.
"Days go so fast, more than ten years have passed in a flash." Yin Fei sighed.
Li Zhai agreed, "Isn't it? I really miss my childhood."
Friendship in childhood is the cleanest and innocent, but it will be mixed with some exploitation and suspicion when you grow up.
"Are you still the same Yin Fei?" He called the name, not the emperor, calling the emperor, they are a relationship between monarch and minister, calling names, they are friends.
Can it still be the same as before, not caring about the emperor's son, or the general's son, or the minister's son, just friends
Yin Fei looked into the distance, "It has been from the beginning to the end."
He knew what Li Zhai was worried about. All through the ages, emperors could only share joys and sorrows, not blessings.
Trust is also a problem. When they were young, they believed in each other unconditionally and supported each other when they grew up. When they were teenagers, they struggled together to hold the power in their hands. When the court was stable, they immediately went to the frontier to fight and realize their dream of unifying the world.
But once they really rule the world, or stop their journey and start enjoying happiness, problems will soon arise. No one is perfect and has shortcomings. For example, Li Zhai used to rely on being a buddy to make things difficult for him.
Although it was resolved afterwards, it was a pimple after all. As long as this kind of thing piled up, the trust and friendship would collapse in a short time.
He doesn't know what will happen to him in the future? But I will definitely not be an ungrateful person. The friendship in the past is still there, and it will be in the future, and I will always remember it in my heart.
"That's good." Li Zhai seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, "With your words, I will die without regret."
Yin Fei frowned, whenever the word 'death' appeared, it seemed so unlucky.
"It's Shiyuan's death day in a few days, let's go see him." Li Zhai suggested, "Bring wine and food."
"Um."
Fang Shu had been waiting with the empress for a long time, but there was still no movement from the emperor's side. The empress said that she might be dealing with official business, or it might be a private matter.
It was getting dark, and if the emperor had a little bad eyesight, he might not have noticed them.
Fang Shu thought to herself that she forgot to light up the lantern. If she did, it would be more obvious.
Why did the Empress come to the Imperial Garden to meet the Emperor? She wanted to say a few words to the Emperor, to gain favor or something.
She wants to help her.
Fang Shu looked around, the empress chose a very conservative place, with willow trees on both sides blocking it, and one side facing the emperor, the emperor might not be able to see them.
There must be some movement.
"Niang Niang, you said that I fell into the water and called for help, can I attract the emperor?" Fang Shu said seriously.
Sitting on the stone bench, the empress looked at her with her chin on her hand, "The emperor may just walk by, I can't swim, and there is no one around, you will die."
Fang Shu: "..."
I didn't expect Niangniang to be so humorous.
In fact, Fang Shu can swim by herself, and she learned it when the original owner jumped into the well. I don't know if it counts, but she floated up by her own strength.
At that time, there happened to be a bucket and a rope for fetching water at hand, and she pulled the rope up, but this time she didn't even have any tools, maybe she would really explain it here.
"Why don't you pretend to be sprained and I'll ask the emperor to help?" Fang Shu suggested.
This is a good way, and there will be no damage.
The empress gave her a strange look, "Why do you think that this palace is here to seduce the emperor?"
?
What else could there be other than seducing the emperor
"I just heard some interesting things, and I want to verify it."
Fang Shu blinked, curious, "What fun thing?"
It's rare for the empress to look pleasant and not angry, so she has become more courageous and dares to ask such things.
"I heard that the emperor avoids women in the harem like snakes and scorpions. When he sees them, he will take a detour. He never goes to the imperial garden. He is afraid of bumping into the concubines. I don't know if it is true or not?"
She played with a strand of beautiful hair, and said with a smile, "You said that if the emperor sees Ben Gong, will he also take a detour?"
