Recently, the Flower Street and Willow Lane in the capital seems to be bustling again.

The emperor's two decrees made noble sons and sons hide at home for a few days, and many officials began to clean themselves up, not daring to go to those places. This building and that hall were really depressed for several days.

Lan Shen had been ordered by his father to memorize books at home for a few days since the last startled horse, and he felt really uncomfortable. It happened that Jiang Ling, the youngest son of Qi Anbo, came to find him to go out to play, and his father went to the government office and was not at home, so he followed Jiang Ling. Together with Ling, they sneaked out to get some air.

Jiang Ling also stayed at home for a few days, and finally came out. Naturally, he wanted to be happy, and there were still people waiting for him in Woyun Tower.

Lan Shen felt something was wrong as he followed him. He grabbed Jiang Ling and asked doubtfully, "It was agreed to just come out to let the wind go. Why are you going there?"

The signboard of Woyun Building is so bright, how could Lan Shen pretend that he didn't see it?The purpose of the decree just issued by the emperor is to rectify and train them, how can they commit crimes against the wind?

Jiang Ling had a bitter face, and the two brothers put their hands on his shoulders, "I said, Mr. Lan, your father is strict with you, and you have always kept yourself clean, but Ruo'er, whom I miss so much, is still waiting for me! I haven't seen me these few days, I must be a lot haggard."

Lan Shen was speechless.

Which young lady would be genuinely moved by you?If you don't go, there will naturally be other people going. I'm afraid they are too busy to go?

"I'm going to the training camp in a few days. It's better for you to cultivate yourself early." Lan Shen was greatly influenced by the father of the censor, and believed that he could get things done by correcting himself first. For this training camp, he really wanted to go in and hone his skills. practice hone.

Seeing that he was really going to the training camp, Jiang Ling looked around, pulled him into a secluded alley, and patted him on the shoulder with a fan, "Are you stupid? Are you really planning to go to that Lao Shizi for training?" camp?"

Lan Shen frowned, "Don't we all want to go?"

Jiang Ling was about to speak, but suddenly remembered that his father was the censor, so he swallowed the words he wanted to say, and said: "Go as you like, I don't want to go, young master, I want to continue to have a good time!"

"Your body is very weak, why don't you go in and exercise? And it's not for nothing, when the time comes, you will be rated, and the emperor will look at you differently. Do you really want to live in chaos and not think about your future? "

Jiang Ling's head was getting bigger, "Master Lan, my eldest brother is the pillar, and I still need Guangyao's lintel? Besides, what rewards are not rewarded, how can my family Ruo'er's small mouth be as exciting?" He said , every face is blooming.

Listening to his foul language, Lan Shen frowned, stretched out her hand and pushed him away, "Forget it, go as you want, I won't stop you, I'd better find a quiet place by myself."

Jiang Ling felt that good things should be shared together, so he grabbed him and seduced him: "You are young, don't be fooling around like your father, you have never tasted that taste, if you taste it, you will never forget it Brother, I will take you to experience it today!"

Lan Shen ruthlessly pushed his hand away, "No, I'd better go back home, you can play by yourself."

The two pulled out of the alley. Seeing that he was determined, Jiang Ling had no choice but to give up. He waved his hand and said helplessly, "I really don't know how to enjoy life!"

Lan Shen stood where he was and watched him gradually walk towards the Woyun Tower.

"Want to go?" A tall and muscular man suddenly appeared beside him and asked.

"Ah?" Lan Shen turned to look at him, "No."

The man nodded, passed him, strode towards Jiang Ling who had already reached the door of Woyun Building, and grabbed his collar, "Are you Jiang Ling?"

After Jiang Ling was stunned for a second, she immediately shouted, "Who the hell is so bold? Dare to attack me?"

The man threw him against the wall with a wave of his hand, "I remember you."

Jiang Ling got up from the ground with a disheveled face, looked at the back of Chen Feng who turned away, and felt as if a thousand horses were galloping in his heart, "You must be sick!"

Chen Feng actually felt that he was sick to take this job, but he couldn't disobey the emperor's orders, and he didn't know why the emperor was stimulated, saying that anyway, he had nothing to do, so instead of indulging in wine, he might as well patrol the streets By the way, recognize the new recruits in the training camp in the future.

Chen Feng, the aristocratic son of the capital, only knew a few, but although he didn't know him, his subordinates knew a lot, so he accompanied him to recognize them.

The emperor said, just recognize people, don't scare the snakes, remember the face and leave, especially those who often linger in the flowers.

Chen Feng has not yet realized the deep meaning of the emperor, he just obeyed the order.

How many dandies are there in the capital?Chen Feng only saw a dozen or so in one day, so it was not a problem, so he went to see the emperor.

The emperor summoned Tan Shiguan and said that the regent was fully responsible for the matter, and he would ask the regent what he meant in the future.

Chen Feng had no choice but to follow Tan Shiguan to Wende Hall.

In the Hall of Wende, Xiao Jumao was reading the memorial, when he heard footsteps, he ran to the bed and pretended to sleep.

Chen Feng sat down and said: "Regent, what is the emperor's intention?"

Xiao Jumao opened his eyes, he was so stupid, he didn't understand.

Tan Shi took a look at Xiao Jumao and said, "How do you feel when the Marquis of Weiyuan is patrolling the streets today?"

Chen Feng nodded, "It's true that I found a lot of playboys who are ignorant, idle and lingering in the flowers."

"Don't you think it's strange? As soon as the regulations of the training camp were finalized, they went back to their old ways, and they didn't seem to worry about the days ahead." Tan Shiguan said, seeing Xiao Jumao getting off the bed and running to him, he immediately Bend down and hug him into your lap.

Xiao Jumao obediently lay down on the ground, looking at Chen Feng with round and big eyes.

Even though Chen Feng had met him many times, he still felt a bit unacceptable. The general who used to be vigorous and resolute on the battlefield now treats a cat with care like his master.

"When the regent said this, I also feel a little strange."

"You are not in the capital all the year round, and you don't attend banquets. There are very few people who know you. You might as well find out how many dandies are trying to deceive the emperor and bribe the children of common people to enter the training camp instead of yourself." Tan Shiguan The words were said lightly, but in Chen Feng's ears, it was like a shocking thunder.

It took him a long time to come back to his senses, and an angry expression gradually appeared on his face, "A bunch of scum!"

They didn't understand the emperor's good intentions, but Chen Feng understood very well that the camp training was not for them to endure hardship, but for them to strengthen their bodies.

Didn't you see that some ministers in the DPRK are sick all day long?It's not because the body can't keep up.Courtiers are weak and have no energy to deal with government affairs. If things go on like this, there will be more and more moths in the official position, and the court is tired and lazy.

It wasn't that he was biased. Among the ministers in the court, there were still a lot of nobles. Although there were civilians who entered the imperial court, they were very few.Many ordinary people simply cannot afford the cost of studying for many years, and most of them are the children of bureaucrats and nobles who have entered the imperial examination.

The emperor's move was firstly to control the corrupt atmosphere in the capital, and secondly to train potential courtiers in the future.There are many dudes, but there are also many people who study hard.But being bored at home reading every day is not good for your body. Naturally, the benefits of physical fitness outweigh the disadvantages.

Moreover, only those who can stand the test can strengthen their will. This is the first threshold for the emperor to test them. If they can't persist, then they don't want to be an official, just go home and rest.

"Since Marquis Weiyuan knows about it, is there a solution?"

Chen Feng stood up suddenly and clenched his fists fiercely, "I don't believe they can't be cured!"

As he said that, he rushed out of Wende Hall aggressively.

Xiao Jumao: "..." Chen Feng is quite responsible.

Although Tan Shiguan was the governor of the training camp handpicked by the emperor, but as the head coach, Chen Feng had to do all these things of teaching people himself, and Tan Shiguan only needed to drink tea and watch the show in the back.

Xiao Jumao changed his position on his lap, facing Tan Shiguan, stretched out his left paw, and shook it.

Tan Shiguan held it with his hands, moved to his lips and kissed, "Huh?"

Xiao Jumao really wanted to give him a blank look, so he pointed to the purple wooden bell on the claw with his right paw, you tied it too tightly, it hurt my legs, loosen it quickly.

Tan Shiguan showed confusion, "What's wrong?"

Xiao Jumao slapped him hard, he was so stupid!Then he turned around angrily, pointed his butt at him, and opened his mouth to bite the knot with his teeth.

Tan Shi saw him like this, so he stopped teasing him, stretched out his hand to help untie the rope, and tied it again.

His majesty the cat realized that Tan Shiguan was deliberately pretending not to understand, and immediately became even more angry. He stomped on his leg several times and jumped down.

When Tan Shiguan was about to coax him, someone from the palace came to report that Lan Yushi was asking to see him outside the palace.

Xiao Jumao, who just ran out of the palace gate, naturally also heard it, so he had no choice but to re-enter the palace, but he was far away from Tan Shiguan.

In fact, what he did just now was not only because he wanted to untie the red rope, but also because he wanted to test Tan's concept of time.

All along, his behavior was very different from ordinary cats, but Tan Shiguan accepted it well and was never surprised. He even treated him differently from ordinary cats, which made him think a lot.

Xiao Jumao already had some calculations in his mind, and he just waited for a chance in the future to ask Tan Shiguan personally.

Lan Yangui entered the hall, sat down, and said with a solemn face: "Regent, the person sent by the lower officials to investigate the disaster funds in the south of the Yangtze River unfortunately died."

Xiao Jumao was both surprised and felt that this was expected.

The south of the Yangtze River is rich and prosperous, and there are gold and silver everywhere.Everyone knows that working in Jiangnan is definitely a lucrative job.But Jiangnan is a gentle town, it can easily make people lose their minds.How many officials went there majestic and heroic, with high morale and vowed to clean up the bureaucratic system in the south of the Yangtze River, but who did it?No, not a single person.

In this big dye vat, they lost their faith, were assimilated by other corrupt officials, and worked together.

If there is no rectification, the majesty of the court will disappear.

This time Tan Shiguan dispatched Lan Yangui to monitor the disaster relief. Xiao Jumao agreed very much. He wanted to see if the group of cancerous tumors could be completely cut off, but unexpectedly, it turned out to be unfavorable. It seems that those officials are I feel that the sky is high and the emperor is far away, and if I hug myself, I can do anything.

There was silence in the hall, and after a while, Tan Shiguan said, "Bury him generously and treat his family kindly."

Lan Yangui nodded, "Then Jiangnan, can we still do it?"

"Do it!" Tan Shiguan resolutely said.

Xiao Jumao said this word in his heart at the same time.If it is allowed to develop again, this cancer will probably grow bigger and bigger, and it will be difficult to eradicate it in the future.

"But, take it easy first." Tan Shiguan rubbed his cuffs with his fingertips, "If you push too hard, it will be counterproductive."

Lan Yangui sighed, now this is the only way to go, "Then I will leave first."

Tan Shiguan stood up and saw him off, "Lord Lan, be careful."

Lan Yangui turned around to look at him, her sparse beard was swaying, and vicissitudes were engraved on the corners of her wrinkled eyes, "Your official understands."

Xiao Jumao didn't come out from the corner until Lan Yangui was far away. He habitually approached Tan Shiguan, but when he thought that he was still angry just now, he turned his head and changed the direction, but stood still. Not moving there.

Although Tan Shiguan felt that his short temper was very cute, he couldn't bear his anger to hurt his body, so he stepped forward, bent down and reached out to hug him, hugged him, squeezed his paws, "Yuanbao is angry? But what did I do wrong?"

Xiao Jumao gave him a squinting look, you have made many mistakes, you dare to deliberately tease me, but I am generous, I will not care about you for the time being.

After a few days like this, the court hall and palace were peaceful, and Xiao Jumao accompanied Tan Shiguan all day long to review the memorials.Ever since he had doubts about Tan Shiguan, his behavior became more presumptuous, flipping through books with his paws in front of Tan Shiguan, reading memorials with Tan Shiguan, and listening carefully to Tan Shiguan's political opinions, acting like a people.

Sure enough, Tan Shiguan wasn't surprised at all, and even kept praising him for being smart. Whether he really didn't see it or pretended to be stupid, Xiao Jumao analyzed it in his mind for several days, and finally came to a conclusion: Tan Shiguan View is deliberately playing stupid.

Once this conclusion is drawn, is it okay?

Thinking of some stupid actions I had done in front of Tan Shiguan before, His Majesty Mao felt aggrieved, and always felt ashamed and humiliated, but after thinking about it carefully, Tan Shiguan never disliked him, instead, he always served him with all his heart. , and kiss him from time to time... For the sake of Tan Shiguan's loyalty to the emperor, let him be spared the crime of blasphemy against the royal family.

"Prince Regent, the emperor has summoned you to Yilan Palace." The palace servants outside the palace reported.

Xiao Jumao looked away from the memorial, Yilan Palace?Isn't this Xiao Zhining's residence?

Tan Shiguan replied, "This king will go right away."

After the palace servants retreated, Tan Shiguan got up after getting a reply on the memorial, "Do you want Yuanbao together?"

Xiao Jumao stopped seeing him anymore, nodded and jumped on him, I don't want to walk.

Tan Shiguan picked him up and walked towards Yilan Palace.

Since the Shadow Emperor summoned Tan Shiguan, there must be something he couldn't make up his mind about. Xiao Jumao sat on Tan Shiguan's arm with a solemn expression, and he didn't know what Xiao Zhining was doing.

Before stepping in, I heard bursts of crying in Yilan Palace. If you didn't understand the reason, you would think someone died.

Tan Shiguan put down Xiao Jumao and entered the hall, and saw the Shadow Emperor looking indifferently at Xiao Zhining on the bed.

Xiao Zhining was weeping, she was very different from her usual domineering appearance, she was originally beautiful and handsome, but now she has a pale face, trembling eyelashes, rainy pear blossoms, I feel pity for her.

"I don't know what the emperor ordered when he summoned the humble minister?" Tan Shiguan lowered his head slightly.

It was the first time for Xiao Jumao to observe Tan from the perspective of other people, and he felt the same as before. He lowered his head and lowered his eyes, as if his face was very scary.

The Shadow Emperor had no expression on his face, "It's the princess who wants to see you."

Tan Shiguan didn't look at Xiao Zhining, but moved his body, lowered his eyes and said: "I don't know what orders Her Highness Princess has for summoning the minister?"

Xiao Zhining raised her eyes to look at his tall and straight figure, and her eyes fell on Xiao Jumao who was at his feet, feeling a secret hatred in her heart.

It is said that Tan Shiguan is obedient to this cat and even takes care of daily affairs in person. Every time Xiao Zhining hears such rumors, she doesn't want to believe it, but she can't deny it even if she doesn't believe it. It's just different.

Xiao Jumao held his round head high and looked at Xiao Zhining, his golden eyes glowed with a cold light.

Tan Shiguan is the pillar of the country, and I will definitely not let you get involved.

Xiao Zhining glared at him secretly, then looked at Tan Shiguan, and said: "Prince Regent, the queen mother's birthday will be in a few days, I just want to go to the imperial garden to find the most beautiful flowers, use them as a model, and use them as models." Embroidered it on a handkerchief and gave it to my mother to express my gratitude for her kindness in giving birth."

Xiao Jumao narrowed his cat pupils, is he secretly scolding me for being unkind and not allowing you mother and daughter to be reunited?Moreover, complaining to the regent about the confinement in front of the emperor, isn't this clearly sowing dissension?Is the emperor more powerful or the regent more powerful?

However, it was indeed the Empress Dowager's birthday in a few days, so he almost forgot.

Tan Shi looked at Xiao Jumao, saw His Majesty Mao nodded to him, and said to the Shadow Emperor: "Your Majesty, the princess's filial piety is rare, why don't you lift the ban for a day and let her show some filial piety?"

The Shadow Emperor pondered for a moment, then said in a deep voice: "Then the ban will be lifted for one day, but only the imperial garden is allowed, and no other places are allowed."

"Thank you, brother."

After the few people had left, Xiao Zhining went to the Imperial Garden accompanied by the maid. She did not act aggressively, but on the way back to the palace, she was bumped into by a little eunuch. After a few mouthfuls, he finally calmed down.

Even though the Queen Mother had lost power, Xiao Zhining did not restrain herself.

In the early morning of the next day, many ministers wrote letters one after another, bluntly saying that Marquis of Weiyuan Chen Feng acted extremely arrogantly. In the past few days, he directly led troops into the gate of the mansion without leaving any room, and directly arrested the men of the right age in the mansion to the training camp. Shouting in the court hall lost all face.

Chen Feng stood proudly, without any trace of fear on his face.He has a straight temper, and he can't deal with those twists and turns. It's more convenient to arrest people directly, and don't leave them time to engage in those small tricks of impersonation.Anyway, the emperor's will is to force them to enter the camp for training. Since it is compulsory, what's the point of saving face?If it's true that courtesy comes first and soldiers come first, I'm afraid these bastards will all run away without a trace.

Marching and fighting pay attention to the speed of soldiers, Chen Feng has a clear conscience.

"You regard my imperial decree as nothing? If this is the case, then there is no coercion, Marquis Weiyuan, you send those who do not want to enter the camp for training, and register them in a book. They will not be allowed to become officials in the future, and future generations None of the heirs can take the imperial examination."

The emperor on the dragon chair looked indifferent, and his attitude was extremely tough. After all, the young emperor was no longer a lamb to be slaughtered, but a tiger with sharp teeth.

The few ministers who made admonitions immediately knelt down on the ground, not daring to speak out.

After retreating, Chen Feng deliberately stood in place and waited for the time to watch.

"Prince Regent, the training camp is ready, would you like to go and see for yourself?" Chen Feng was still very grateful for Tan Shiguan's trust in Wu Heng's case last time, and felt that this person didn't seem so unkind.

Tan Shi watched and heard the words, thinking that His Majesty would be interested, so he agreed, "Alright, I'll go and have a look after lunch."

After serving Xiao Jumao's meal at noon, Tan Shiguan told him about it, Xiao Jumao really cared about it, he didn't even take a nap, and asked Tan Shiguan to take him to have a look.

The training camp is located in a vast valley in the outskirts.

Xiao Jumao followed Tan Shiguan to the entrance of the valley. There were heavy guards guarding the entrance of the valley. After the soldiers notified him, Chen Feng came out to greet him in person.

The valley is full of green grass and gurgling water. Xiao Jumao smells the fragrance of wild flowers in the grass and feels refreshed.

Chen Feng brought them into the camp, and introduced the daily training arrangements and various details in the army in detail.Xiao Jumao heard about it, so he wanted to go out for a stroll. After all, he was very proud to see his decree implemented.

There are many camps in the valley, and soldiers patrol from time to time, and some veterans are training daily. The newcomers put on the uniforms of the recruits, and gather together to point and point at the veterans, and there may be disgust on their faces.

It was estimated that they had just entered the camp, and Chen Feng hadn't had time to practice yet.

Xiao Jumao wandered slowly to the edge of the stream some distance away from the tent, and saw fish swimming in the water. He became interested, so he concentrated for a while, and finally found an opportunity, and threw his paws into the water, splashing water all over his body. .

Looking down, it was a pity that there was nothing, just when he was disappointed and upset, a fishing net fell from the sky, and Xiao Jumao was caught by the net before he could react.

what happened?

He wanted to throw off the fishing net on his body, but the fishing net got tighter and tighter. He turned to look, and the anger in the cat's pupils flashed, and he looked at the few people in front of him coldly.

He has seen these people before, and they are all the overlords of the Duke's family.

"I said, are you really going to kill this cat?" Someone had a look of hesitation.

"Hush, be quiet," one of them secretly looked towards the direction of the camp, "while they can't control us now, let's get rid of this cat as soon as possible."

"Yeah, I heard that this cat is the Prince Regent's sweetheart. He supervised the training camp this time. If it wasn't for him, we wouldn't be in such a miserable situation."

"Also, there is an order from the palace to find an opportunity to kill the cat. I didn't expect to have a chance today." This fishing net was used by the soldiers in the valley to catch small fish and shrimp. The seams of the net are very fine, and they happened to borrow it. use.

"What if the regent knows about this and blames it?"

"I don't even think about who is behind us. He is just a reckless man who fights. He has no background at all. He used to be the regent and has some real power, but now? My father said that the emperor has become more and more aggressive recently. I am afraid that soon, he He can't be the regent anymore, he dare not do anything to us."

Xiao Jumao knew that they had murderous intentions, so he called out loudly, wanting to attract attention.

Seeing this, several people quickly dragged him into the water, the fishing net tightened tighter and tighter, even though Xiao Jumao could swim, he couldn't move at this moment.

Tan Shiguan, come and save me quickly!

The brook poured into his mouth, the suffocation made his chest feel tight, his eyes turned black, Xiao Jumao struggled desperately, wanting to live a little longer and wait a little longer.

"What are you doing!" Lan Shen couldn't help asking loudly when he saw a few people sneaking around and inheriting his father's insight into play.

His shouting attracted many people's attention, and the training camp suddenly became commotion. They were still watching and listening to the movement in the camp tent, and came out together with Chen Feng.

"What's the noise?" Chen Feng frowned and asked harshly, these soldiers really have no discipline at all.

"General, some recruits seem to have drowned a cat..."

Tan Shiguan's brain suddenly buzzed, his heart stopped beating, and he rushed over immediately.

Lan Shen has already joined forces with others to repel several people, rescued Xiao Jumao, and pulled away the fishing net.

Tan Shi took a quick look and saw the silent orange cat lying limply on the grass. He gasped for several times and forced himself to calm down. With red eyes, he knelt down and pressed the kitten's heart and lungs.

Time and time again, my hands trembled violently, but I didn't dare to stop at all.

Finally, some water spouted from the cat's mouth, and breathing gradually appeared, but the eyes never opened.

Tan Shi Guan made up his mind for a while, and quickly hugged the kitten into his arms. He wanted to go back to find Zhou Shuo quickly. As for the perpetrators, it would not be too late to settle the punishment after Yuan Bao woke up.

At the same time, in the Sapphire Blue Palace, a pair of slightly rounded eyes suddenly opened.
