how a stallion is made

When Tantai got up the next day, as soon as he opened the door, he saw Lan Ruo leaning against the door and looking up at the sky. Fortunately, there were not many servants in the Palace of the Baxian Prince, only a dozen or so palace slaves bestowed by Emperor Ming and Meng Tianxiang. Don't know what to say yet.

"Uh..." Lan Ruo turned her head to look at Tantai Shuhe, his half-smile made Lan Ruo not know how to speak.

Excuse me, shouldn't I be wandering around?

Excuse me, shouldn't I drink indiscriminately?

I'm sorry, shouldn't I hug you and call you mother?

I'm sorry, I shouldn't have...brought those little beggars back?

"It's fine to apologize, it's not worth it." Tantai Shuhe knew that he was struggling, so he didn't make things difficult for him, "However, you also know who I am, and even I will be impulsive after seeing such a thing."

"I..." Lan Ruo thought for a while, but in the end she didn't say much.

"Let's go, have breakfast!" Tantai Shuhe knew that Lan Ruo was fine, so he called him to eat, "I still have to hurry to the morning court."

After briefly explaining to Meng Tianxiang how to deal with the group of beggars brought back by Lan Ruo, Tantai Shuhe rode his horse to Weiyang Palace alone.The royal robe flutters with the wind, Weiyang in the early morning is much more lively than Donglin in Jibei, Tantai Shuohe naturally does not have a horse, but he has a father, and this horse was specially rewarded by Emperor Ming.

From time to time, one or two sedan chairs or carriages were overtaken by him, and Tantai Shuohe didn't bother to come forward to say hello, so forget it.The main road in Weiyang Capital is paved with bluestone slabs about nine feet wide, eight feet wide enough for two carriages to pass side by side, and any wider is the street for business.

"My lord, please stop!"

Suddenly, a sentence came out, and Tantai Shuhe immediately reined in his horse and turned around to see an old man with long beard getting out of an inconspicuous carriage.

The crimson boa robe with silver patterns is from Yipin Youcheng.

Tantai Shuhe smiled, thinking that what happened yesterday had also reached the ears of this official, forcing him to take some action.The salary of Weiyang officials is not high, ten thousand taels of silver a year is already the sky.Young Master You Cheng took out more than one hundred thousand taels without blinking an eye, which really aroused criticism.

"It's Lord Youcheng, disrespect and disrespect." Tantai Shuhe looked up and saw that he was not far from the main entrance of Weiyang Palace, and immediately got off the horse gracefully, ready to fight with others.

You Cheng was blocked by his words, so he simply put down the curtain and got out of the carriage. If he talked about his skills, how could he be afraid of a mere young prince in Tantai Shuhe after he said that he had studied hard for decades.

"What? The prince is going to court today?"

"Where is it, just being idle at home is idle, it's better to contribute to the country." Tantai Shuhe led the horse forward very calmly, looking really like a rich man.

After this trial, You Cheng knew that the eight sage kings were not easy to catch flaws. In the three sentences, they were all for the country and for the people.

"I don't know what happened to the lord's fairy friend last night? It sounds like a child is ineffective, and he offended the lord." You Cheng's words are serious, offended, this is not an insinuation that Tantai Shuhe is not tolerant Well.

Tantai Shuhe smiled slightly: "I served my mother and concubine last night and didn't return home until Haishi. I don't know which song You Cheng is singing?"

This is a proper scoundrel, anyway, Tantai Shuohe is sure that You Cheng can't make a fuss about this matter, and he is not afraid of what he will say.You Cheng is getting old, and he hasn't been in the officialdom for a few years, not to mention that he is an old man from the previous dynasty. Emperor Ming didn't do anything to him because of his knowledge.As for You Cheng's connections, Emperor Ming basically dealt with them long ago.

"Eight Sage Kings!" You Cheng blew his beard and stared angrily.

"You Cheng, I'm not in the mood to participate in a book about someone's horse riding and hurting people. You don't want to, do you?" Tantai Shuhe still smiled like a spring breeze, "There is no way to teach a child, tsk tsk tsk... interesting."

You Cheng suddenly lost strength and fell silent, but he was thinking that the eight sage kings who had just arrived would pay him a three-point respect, who would have imagined it—the eight sage kings, what a good eight sage kings!

It's so arrogant that no one can see it!But he just has nothing to do with the other party, so angry!But you can't stop going to court because of anger, right?He still wants to earn a few more years in the position of You Cheng.

As the crowd walked towards the palace, Tantai Shuohe handed the horse over to the palace slave, and slowly swayed over by himself.There are three bells ringing in the upper court, the first one is to open the palace gate, the second one is to close the palace gate, and the third one is the emperor's arrival to prepare for the court meeting.

When Tantai Shuohe arrived, it happened that the second bell rang, and the officials who were still gathered outside the political hall immediately dispersed and walked towards the hall.Tantai Shuhe followed the crowd at a leisurely pace and entered the main hall of discussing political affairs. He thought it would take some trouble, but he found the legendary Crown Prince at a glance.

"Here." The crown prince has a handsome face, not outstanding, and it seems that he is easy to get along with.But how could Tantai Shuhe take it lightly, who in the court is not a genius?

"Thank you, Brother Huang." Tantai Shuhe nodded as a greeting, and then retreated behind the prince, pretending that nothing happened.

"Boom—" A bell rang, and the scattered voices that had been scattered before suddenly fell silent.

Wearing a dragon robe and wearing a jade crown, Emperor Ming came out step by step from the back door of the hall, behind which was the special place for reviewing memorials in Beichen Hall.

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live—"

As soon as the Shanhu tsunami was over, Emperor Ming mentioned the locust plague in northern Sichuan. Tantai Shuohe secretly opened his inspiration, and clearly saw the profuse sweating of Dong Hao, the Shangshu of the household department.

"Report to Your Majesty, locusts and locust plagues have been brought under control, and the official warehouses have been fully stocked a few years ago, so we should be ready to deal with the famine in the coming year."

"Oh——" Emperor Ming couldn't discern joy or anger on his face, and the officials involved in this matter trembled three times.

Tantai Shuhe couldn't help showing a smile, he lowered his head and didn't know what he was thinking.

"Your Majesty, I have something I would like to ask Master Dong." Tantai Shuihe was smiling when a voice suddenly appeared from behind the official team, and it was quite possible that if you don't let him speak, he would hit his head on the hall to death smell.

"Pei Aiqing, but it's all right." Emperor Ming raised his eyes and paused at Tantai Shuhe.

Apparently this person surnamed Pei didn't know what polite words meant, so he asked Dong Shangshu loudly when he got permission: "Then dare to ask Mr. Dong, how do you want the common people to live this year?"

"This..." Seeing this guy, Dong Hao felt bad, but he had no choice but to bite the bullet, "A few years ago, the harvest was very good, and the people's families naturally had a lot of surplus food. What's more... what's more, The Eight Sage Kings also took action to curb the spread of the locust plague, and the disaster in northern Sichuan was not serious."

Tantai Shuhe raised his head suddenly, and it was actually on his head!

"Well, I dare to ask the eight sage kings, is this locust plague not serious as Mr. Dong said?" The surname Pei immediately turned the gunfire and asked about Tantai Shuhe.

"...This..." How did Tantai Shuohe know!He just made a move except for one locust, and it was delayed for a few hours in Jining. How could he manage other things!

"Pei Shilang is too forceful. The Eighth Emperor is just passing through Jining, so how do you know these things." The prince in front of Tantai Shuhe spoke up, as if he was defending Tantai Shuhe.

"It's a slip of the tongue." Pei Shilang took a step back, and just as everyone breathed a sigh of relief, he continued, "But as a minister of Weiyang, it's a bit unreasonable for the prince not to care about important matters related to people's livelihood—— Suspected of being a vegetarian."

"..." What a big hat.

Tantai Shuhe could no longer sit idly by, gritted his teeth and turned around and said, "I don't know about the locust plague in northern Sichuan, but the locust plague is definitely not without reason."

"The lower official naturally understands." Pei Shilang replied neither humble nor overbearing.

The hall fell into silence, and Tantai Shuhe suddenly realized that he had picked up something wrong. His third brother was the garrison soldier You Yun, and he or the crown prince should not have spoken out about it. Suspected of cross-examination.

Tantai Shuhe laughed, what is he afraid of?What's there to be afraid of?

Therefore, he opened the mouth that could not be opened: "Father, I heard that the people in Youyun Sixteen Town are tough."

Hearing the sound, Pei Shilang secretly sighed, it's not that he doesn't know how powerful he is, but... that person must have rushed to Youyun, right?What a mess.

Emperor Ming seemed to be unaware of anything, and laughed: "Your Brother San Huang came back a year ago, and it will be soon."

"I should have a good chat with Brother Sanhuang over there, I have never been to Youyun's place before." Tantai Mohe heaved a sigh of relief, the matter was finally revealed.It's just that the people of Youyun are pitiful, they still have a lot to suffer, and I don't know if anyone can help them.Tantai Shuhe is now a mud bodhisattva crossing the river and cannot protect himself. He can't see the situation clearly and has nothing.

Most of the people who can have a place in the court are officials of the fifth grade or above, but the local officials in various places do not belong to the permanent circle. Only the highest officials from various places will rush back to Weiyang to give a routine report every year.

Tantai Shuhe looked up at the huge dragon picture on the top of the main hall, it was almost the Chinese New Year, and Weiyang Capital... should also be lively.

Later, someone mentioned the drought and flood problem in the south of the Yangtze River the year before, and Tantai Shuhe smiled wryly, why does he always feel that the court will end sooner or later?He can't be saved, Tantai Shuohe knows in his heart like a mirror, he has been restrained invisibly.

So——Tantai Shuhe raised his head and glanced at that superior position, it's too much trouble, do you want to fight?I really don't want to...

An early court was passed by Tantai Shuhe almost in a wild way of thinking, and when he heard the call to retreat, he looked up and saw that Emperor Ming had left early, Tantai Shuhe was going out with the crowd habitually, But he didn't want to be pulled by his sleeve by his prince brother.

"What?" Tantai Shuhe looked blankly at the brother he had just met, as if he didn't know anything at all.

There was a moment of pain on the prince's face, and this guy didn't listen to what Emperor Ming said at all.The prince is in his 20s this year and has a gentle temperament since he was a child, but he was not liked by the Emperor Ming. He usually does not behave like a crown prince, and because of this, he has often been criticized by all officials.

"Father just asked us to go to Beichen Hall to meet him."

"Oh, okay, I understand." Tantai Shuhe looked absent-minded, "By the way, what is the origin of that Minister Pei?"

The prince took a deep breath and said, "Pei Chao, Minister of Rites."

"From the Ministry of Rites?! Then what kind of locust disaster does he care about?" Tantai Shuhe suddenly came to his senses.

The crown prince smiled and didn't make a sound, but because Tantai Shuhe's voice was too loud, he attracted that Minister Pei over.

"I don't know what advice the prince has?"

Tantai Shuhe simply pretended to be a dandy and said: "I didn't expect someone to be more idle than this king, tsk tsk."

"The lower official has heard for a long time that the prince has an outstanding literary name, but - the court is not a plaything like you."

"Tut tsk tsk, angry youth, heh." Tantai Shuhe didn't care about the explicit irony in Pei Chao's language, and just said something casually.

Qu Linjiang, who hadn't left for a long time, also came over: "My lord, it's better to go to Beichen Hall earlier, lest His Majesty wait for a long time."

When Pei Chao saw him approaching, he immediately turned dark and walked away.When he walked away, he didn't forget to mumble: "It's too late, it may not be good to be old."

When Tantai Shuhe heard these words, he was satisfied, and immediately uttered a sentence: "I think Pei Shilang must be a child, hehe."

The two separated far away as if vomiting like children, neither paying attention to the other.

Qu Linjiang looked at the prince silently, they both sighed at the same time, why is it like this?

Emperor Ming didn't have any serious business looking for Tantai Shuhe and the crown prince, it's just that the parents had slander.However, he specially instructed Tantai Shuhe to have dinner at Nalan Noble Concubine.

Tantai Shuhe obediently did as he said, and did not make any mistakes.
