over ten thousand people

The party and the party go as they please.After the four-day holiday, he led the army out of the Golden Light Gate just after dawn.I planned to see him off in person, but he didn't want to either.

As soon as he left, I was faced with the dilemma of having nothing to do, so I could only concentrate on studying Xie Jingyu's sweetheart.Not to mention anything else, Xie Jingyu is definitely a person who can make the party and the party take great risks to intercede for him; as long as his sweetheart can be used by me, I don't need to bother thinking about whether there is an untimely bomb on him, Do we need to act first?

This method is not on the table, I know.But compared to Xie Jingyu being rebelled by Southern Wu and the two sides fighting each other, I think it is better to resolve it peacefully.Anyway, I reckon that I don't have a good impression of Xie Jingyu, and it's right and left.

In Xingjing City, there are naturally many men, and there are also many men of the right age, but when it comes to those who can make Xie Jingyu hesitate, there are really not many.I asked the Ministry of Households to compile a list for me, and I studied each of them whenever I had time.To be honest, there are two or three conditions in it that are really good, but they have nothing to do with Xie Jingyu——

Forget it before; now that he is a prime minister, how can he go to court every day, discuss matters and draft edicts and go back to the government?I never go to private banquets, and I don’t make many friends. Looking around, they are all colleagues who are at least forty years old... Good Nanfeng is one thing. He likes men who are ten or twenty years older and have wives and children. His taste is not so heavy?

I am deeply puzzled.Could Dang He have guessed wrong like I did?In fact, there is no such so-called sweetheart at all, Xie Jingyu is only full of thoughts when he realizes that I am suspicious?

I think it's very likely.

What?Saying that Xie Jingyu spends six hours a day in the palace, should I include myself in the list?

Come on... Although I had some vague guesses earlier, I still have this self-knowledge.If he likes Zhen, it is more like eating a bear's heart and a leopard's guts than Goulian Nanwu.Take a ten thousand step back and say, what can he see in me, a passable skin?He's not stupid, I feel suspicious whenever I see him, it's fine if he doesn't blame me, what else is there to like?

It was another road without a clue, but luckily Yan Tongfu didn't keep me waiting too long.

"Your Majesty, I have already found out the traces of the person who was at the Qushui Stone Bridge that day. After the Shangsi, he did not stay in Xingjing, but went all the way south. A few days ago, the person had already arrived in Yuezhou. If the news from the minister's spies is correct , he is going back to Jianzhou."

Yuezhou belongs to Jiangnan Province, and Jianzhou belongs to Lingnan Province.If I ask someone to be the governor of Jianzhou, it will be regarded as demotion and distribution, and the real emperor is far away.If that person is really Kang Wang's subordinate, it can only be said that Kang Wang will indeed choose a place to hide.

I thought for a while and asked, "Have you sent someone to follow him?"

Yan Tongfu replied: "I have followed. Please let your majesty tell me what to do next."

This matter can be said to be big or small - after all, Emperor Hui is fatuous and ruthless, and King Kang himself is also a rich man - but it is normal for Yan Tongfu to be cautious if he can't help being sensitive. "Let people continue to follow, don't be discovered. There has been no movement for more than ten years, but it happened recently. I'm afraid it's not very peaceful. I will write a handbook for you and ask the states and counties along the way to cooperate."

Yan Tongfu was visibly relieved. "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your compassion."

"Before you meet the people behind the scenes, you must not act rashly." Zhen reminded again, "I want to live. If there are not enough people, send more out. You must be trustworthy."

"I understand, please rest assured, Your Majesty."

Seeing that it will be a matter of time before this matter is resolved, the string in my mind has finally loosened.This loosening gave me the mood to do other things, such as going to the school field to shoot arrows.

When my father was away fighting everywhere, I was still young, and I always felt that I would be like this one day, so I practiced very diligently.When I was a little older, I realized that my father had almost beaten everything that should be beaten; if one day the Great Zhou needed my own imperial conquest, then it was obvious that I, the emperor, had failed extremely.

Although I haven't touched it for a long time, the feeling of years of practice is still there.Except for the first two arrows, every subsequent arrow hits the heart.

Liu Jin watched in surprise from the sidelines.He used to be by the father's side, and I was one of the youngest sons of the father, so I didn't have the chance to see him.When I finished shooting a tube of arrows, he hurriedly clapped his hands and praised: "Your Majesty is really good at piercing Yang with a hundred steps!"

"It's just a dead target." I said lightly, "Order it down, change it to a moving target."

Liu Jin retreated in response, but returned not long after. "Your Majesty, Mr. Xie has something to see."

I can't help but feel a little guilty.It's true that I haven't dealt with the affairs summarized by the Ministry of Education today, but it shouldn't be important recently. Why did I ask Xie Jingyu to follow me to the school grounds? "Xuan."

"The old slave is going now." Liu Jin continued to ask, "The target..."

"Changed."

"Old slave understands." Liu Jin responded, and then retreated in small steps.

After a while, Xie Jingyu entered the school grounds.He saluted as usual, and then said: "Your Majesty has such an elegant mood, it is inconvenient for me to disturb you. However, Zhang Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry handed over a new brochure. Seeing that he was very anxious, I came here boldly, and hope Your Majesty will forgive me."

I roughly guessed it when I heard the Ministry of Industry. "Zhang Ji wants to build a dam on the Luo River?"

Xie Jingyu was obviously taken aback. "Indeed," he said after deliberation, "Zhang Shangshu said that if there is too much rain, there will be floods in the lower reaches of the Luoshui River, and if there is little rain, there will be droughts. It is a waste of manpower, material resources and fertile land. After autumn, the Luoshui River is dry, which is the reason for the dam to be built. It’s a great time. If we want to catch up with this autumn and winter, we should start preparing for it now.”

"This Zhang Ji..." I almost laughed out of anger. "He should be in a hurry! Because of the Northwest War, he endured it for three years, and he was afraid that I would say that the treasury had no money to send him away. No, as soon as the party general left, he couldn't bear it anymore!"

Xie Jingyu wisely refrained from expressing his opinion.

I'm just complaining.The completion of the dam repair is all merits in the present age and benefits in the future, but Zhang Ji's rushing style makes me very displeased.But if you don't like it, Zhang Ji also has a heart for the country and the people, so I can't embarrass him. "Bring a pen and paper," I told Liu Jin, and then turned to Xie Jingyu, "You remember what I say."

Xie Jingyu naturally had no objection.When the Four Treasures of the Study were presented, the moving targets were also arranged.He glanced at the distance of the school grounds, turned around and saw that I had already picked up the bow and arrow, he couldn't help being a little puzzled.

I don't care what he's thinking. "The first one," I bent my bow and set an arrow, aiming with squinted eyes, "Estimate the waterline after the dam is built. If you need references such as the waterline in previous years, I will ask the state governments to report it. As for the rainfall, the Secretary Tiantai There are records every year."

Before the words fell, the arrow on the string flew out with a whoosh.

I drew another arrow, and aimed again. "Article [-], according to the estimated highest waterline, check the villages below the waterline. Residential houses, field ridges, livestock, etc. should be recorded one by one and compensated according to the price. In addition, the local state government should also field Check and select a new place suitable for living and farming for the people."

Whoosh, the second arrow also flew out.

"Third, after the dam is repaired, the Ministry of Industry is responsible for verification, the Ministry of Officials is responsible for re-examination, and the Ministry of Households is responsible for reconciliation. If anyone is corrupt and cheating, cheating—" I drew the third arrow to the bow and smiled slightly , "Tao Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment and Chu Aiqing of Dali Temple must be very willing to meet them in person."

Speaking is naturally faster than writing.When I was choosing among a bunch of crossbows, the rustling of the wolf hair rubbing against the rice paper stopped. "Your Majesty, just these three?"

I quickly selected a small iron crossbow that fit my hand, and walked back to the original position. "Why, what's Xie Fengge's opinion?"

"Chen..." Xie Jingyu hesitated for a while, "Zhang Shangshu said to build a dam, but none of the three items mentioned by His Majesty mentioned the dam itself."

I snorted and focused on debugging the Liannu mechanism.Iron arrows are much heavier than wooden arrows, and they may fall off halfway. "If you want me to teach you how to build a dam, what do you want Zhang Ji to do?"

Xie Jingyu fell silent, and I was almost done with it.Raise the crossbow, aim, and pull the mechanism—three iron arrows shot out through the air, the sound was muffled, like thunder.I put down the crossbow and told Liu Jin: "Have someone stop the target and drag it over to show me."

Six arrows, three targets.The wooden arrow was nailed in the center of the bull's-eye; the iron arrow fired afterward pierced the wooden arrow straight through, and the arrow tip pierced through the target.

I am quite satisfied, even more satisfied than the three items just mentioned.After all, it depends on my little-known dreams to consider a major event thoroughly, but this archery skill is really practiced by my sweat.

Liu Jin was so dumbfounded that she forgot to clap her hands.As for Xie Jingyu, he was not very surprised. "I have always heard of His Majesty's sharp shooting, and I am honored to see it today. It really lives up to my reputation."

I raised my eyebrows.I don't like hunting, and I've never been on a battlefield, where did Xie Jingyu hear that?Then I thought of someone. "Party general?"

Xie Jingyu nodded. "The general of the party once said that the continuous crossbow improved by His Majesty is almost invincible on the battlefield, and everyone in the army is fascinated. I boldly guessed that Your Majesty's archery skills must be good. But I never thought that His Majesty's archery skills are far from bad , It’s simply divine.”

Liu Jin finally came to his senses, and hurriedly followed suit to praise: "Your Majesty's archery skills are really amazing! This old servant is dumbfounded!"

"Your Majesty, if you don't shoot, you will be fine, but if you shoot, you will surely hit. I feel ashamed." Xie Jingyu said again.

These words sounded a little different... I looked at him, and unexpectedly found that he was also looking at me, with a pair of beautiful dark eyes, as if trying to suppress something underneath. "Come on, if you keep talking, I'm afraid I'm going to float when I walk."

Xie Jingyu withdrew his head and resigned, and went back to draw up an imperial edict.Looking at his back, I was still thinking about his words and eyes just now.I always feel something is wrong...Xie Jingyu can't be real...
