On the thirteenth day of the first lunar month of the next year, it is the custom to hold sacrifices in Beijing. Immortals kneel down and kowtow in the temple to worship the ancestors, praying for peace in the world and peace and prosperity in the world.

The ceremony had to last until noon. Yuan Qing came late in the morning and only had time to say hello to Hong Ran.

Lan Yu did not stand in a row with them, but followed the God Emperor to offer incense.

Lan Yu has good looks and good moral conduct. He has always been the best among the children of the Tianjing family. He is calm and measured, and he can be called a benchmark.

Among them, the children of the aristocratic families headed by Yuan Qing suffered greatly.

Especially Yuan Qing's father, he wished he could carve Lan Yu into a tablet and put it into the ancestral hall so that Yuan Qing could worship him day and night.

When he was in school, his father tried his best to put him and Lan Yu together. It was a simple idea.

Even if it doesn't grow into a towering tree, it will be fine if it has some fairy spirit to prevent it from growing crookedly.

Later, Yuan Qing got together with Lan Yu, but he didn't make much progress. The only thing that pleased his father was that Yuan Qing learned to go home at night.

Slowly growing up until now, he finally looks like a person.

As a result, Yuan Qing's father became more and more interested in inviting Lan Yu into the ancestral hall.

After the ceremony, the ceremonial director had prepared a banquet and had to discuss matters in the afternoon, so time was tight.

Yuan Qing took Hong Ran to find a seat and happened to see Lan Yu in front of him.

When he turned around, he also saw Yuan Qing Hongran, and Lan Yu, with the corners of his lips curled up, smiled at them warmly, and followed the God Emperor to sit down at the table.

Yuan Qing Hongran: "?????????"

Yuan Qing was confused: "Is he laughing with us?"

Hong Ran was equally puzzled. He looked behind him to make sure there was no one else, and then said: "Yes, isn't it just the two of us?"

Yuan Qing was even more dumbfounded: "Damn it, is his mind really okay? Doesn't he just laugh at me?"

Hong Ran was also confused. In his impression, he had never seen Lan Yu smile very often. Lan Yu was always indifferent to people and things.

When Lan Yu was copying books in the library, he was the only one who smiled with Shang Shen, so this smile can be regarded as a once-in-a-lifetime event.

"Isn't he overly sad and having a mental problem?"

Yuan Qing guessed and felt that this was very possible.

It's not surprising that he guessed so, mainly because the last battle was too much caused by Lan Yu. With tears in his eyes, he couldn't let go, saying that there was absolutely no hope between him and Chu Yitang.

Yuan Qing had never seen him so hurt by love. Although he had long expected that the matter would be fruitless, Lan Yudong was serious about it. As a good brother, he did nothing but comfort Lan Yu by hanging on a tree. Nothing more can be done.

Hongran felt goosebumps when he said it, and said: "Probably not, don't talk too much about it."

"Why not! Do you still remember that? Who is that... Yes! It's that Xu Cai. Do you remember? He used to be an errand in Lesi. His wife ran away with someone and even took the child away. , and then went crazy!”

"real or fake??"

"Then can I lie to you? I think Lan Yu is not far away from him."

Hongran was worried: "Then why don't we take care of it, so as not to be really irritated."

Yuan Qing picked up a chopstick and nodded while chewing: "It's very necessary. I'll go when I finish in the afternoon."

After the banquet, the God Emperor went to the Tianqiong Pavilion meeting hall with several senior ministers. ,

Lan Yu's promotion has been decided, although it will be after the beginning of spring. However, after Lan Yu took over the Criminal Division and Ying Ren Mountain, he used thunderous means to deal with dozens of those who were incompetent in their duties, and also demoted Shen Yue's position.

Only when all the minions and claws are cleared can the Metropolitan Procuratorate be put to his use.

Wei Wei is also present at today's discussion, discussing how to deal with floods in the Southern Wilderness.

The rain in Nanhuang was too heavy this year and lasted for a long time. The long-term heavy rain washed away Xizhoushan and its surrounding mountains.

The floodwaters in the Lingyi River were silted up and could not be collected into the Mingjiang River. The ferocious floods returned to the Southern Wilderness territory, causing countless disasters and a complete loss of life.

It was for this reason that Lan Yu went to the Southern Wilderness a month ago. The floods were dangerous, and there were ancient ferocious river beasts lurking in the Lingyi River. The floods broke out, and the Southern Wilderness was miserable.

Fortunately, the disaster control measures taken by Lan Yu were effective. The Lingyi River could not merge into the Ming River, so the two sides of the Lingyi River were divided into flood diversion areas. The lower section of the Lingyi River was used as a flood detention area, and the embankments were expanded to expand the flood discharge section of the Lingyi River to dredge the floods. .

The Ministry of Industry was worried. Tianjing could not allocate so many people at the moment, and it was difficult to borrow people from everywhere.

The God Emperor is also worried. Rebuilding the Southern Wilderness is a big deal. Manpower can be freed up, but the key is that no one will take the job.

Lan Yu was an excellent choice, but the Inspectorate had also selected him as the admiral.

Last time, Lan Yu wanted to kill the water demon who fled to the Southern Wilderness in Wuxu. Although he killed the water demon with his sword, he was still injured and returned home.

There was a wound on his back that was so deep that the bone could be seen. The Emperor's heart trembled when he saw it. Lan Yu still had to wait until he returned to Tianjing before arranging for medical treatment. The wound had been soaked in water for a long time and the environment was harsh, causing the wound to fester and turn rotten.

The medical officer's head was covered with cold sweat, so he had to use the tip of a tempered knife to cut out the rotten flesh, and then apply muscle-building medicine.

The process was so torturous that the old man felt distressed even if he even looked at it.

He couldn't let Lan Yu take this risk anymore.

The old man sighed, and all the elders in the pavilion also sighed.

Except someone.

Lan Yu was holding a small notebook, and on the surface he seemed to be memorizing something seriously, but in fact he was grinning almost to his ears.

He drew little figures in his notebook and wrote his names after he finished the drawing.

The old man looked at Lan Yu and looked very strange. He knocked on the table and called out, "Ai Qing, do you have anything to say?"

Lan Yu was still laughing. When the old man called him, he thought he was calling someone else and ignored him. In the end, he was stared at by several pairs of eyes on the chair before he reluctantly raised his head, clasped the notebook on his knees, and replied:

"I have no opinion to express. This matter is entirely up to your Majesty and the ministers to decide."

"Then why does my beloved keep...?"

The old man thought about his words and made an arc on his face, the meaning of which was self-evident.

Lan Yu calmed down a bit and asked again: "What is today? Is it a day when you can't laugh?"

The old man wondered: "That's not true, it's just that I am very happy to see you today."

One of the pavilion elders joked: "This saying does not mean that people are in high spirits when happy events happen. It must be that the admiral has met some happy events."

"It's indeed a happy event," Lan Yu smiled even more and made no attempt to hide it, "I think you were right."

"What happy event?" The old man intuitively told him that this was no ordinary happy event. Lan Yu had never seen him so happy whether he won the first prize in the literary test or was promoted.

The old man asked enthusiastically: "It is better to have fun alone than to have fun together. I will also tell you about this happy event in detail."

Well, this would be more accurately called bad news for the old man.

In the morning, you respectfully placed a stick of incense on my happy occasion at the shrine...

Lan Yu decided not to provoke him anymore.

He still had some conscience, so he didn't want to make the old man angry, so he handed over his hand and said perfunctorily:

"It's still too early now. When the time is right in the future, I will discuss it with His Majesty in detail."

All the elders in the pavilion smiled clearly and wished Lan Yu great success.

The discussion ended in the afternoon. When Lan Yu left, he tore off the piece of paper with the little figures on it, folded it neatly, and put it in his sleeve and took it away.

Lan Yu's return home was as fast as an arrow. Yuan Qing and Hong Ran stayed there all afternoon without even catching a corner of his clothes.
