cool night

Wang Mingtou with a different surname sounds nice, but it is actually a dangerous and risky job.Since ancient times, as long as there are kings of different surnames who have not turned their backs on wanting to live in peace and contentment and keep an idle and rich life, most of them have handed over the military power early, returned to the fief, indulged in poetry and wine and neglected their duties, and only hoped that the emperor would have nothing to do. up.

After all, they are not considered as clan relatives, but they occupy a piece of fiefdom, they are enfeoffed as marquises, and they are able to train soldiers and horses to designate taxes. They are the most likely to be suspicious of their superiors. Most likely, the more beautiful they are when they are rewarded, the more they will live on thin ice afterwards.

Especially like His Royal Highness Chen Wang in the current dynasty, who is as good as the king, and still uses the word Chen as the name. The upper hall does not pay homage to the lower hall. It sounds like infinite respect, but the power of heaven is unpredictable. How many barbarians have been beheaded on the battlefield, now it is always Taiping years, the emperor sees him so powerful every day, who knows when he will not be happy in his heart?

There were several military generals in the court who went to the border to crusade against Xiliang together at that time, and they could be regarded as comrades in the army with His Royal Highness Chen Wang. They were born and died together, and they were fateful friendships. Fenghe didn't want to see other people's good intentions, and he was also worried that their invincible general would end up in a situation of discord with the emperor, and he had mentioned to him in private that His Highness Chen Wang had never returned to the fief.

After all, Bai Feng was born as a secret guard. Even though the king has been granted permission to enter and leave the court, there are still some twists and turns that are still unclear. I really don't understand why he will be at odds with his master and ministers if he doesn't go to that fiefdom.

His Royal Highness Chen Wang was still ignorant about certain aspects of government affairs, and it was not hard for him to understand things that he really couldn't figure out. He turned around and asked Mu Chenling when he returned to Minglan Palace.

Mu Chenling was about to be annoyed by those generals who were idle all day long, thinking wildly and ruining his little secret guards. He immediately issued an order saying that the guards in the capital were insufficient, and assigned them two waves of drill soldiers. There will be a rehearsal later.

At any rate, there is no such group of elders to worry about all day long, but Bai Feng's heart is vaguely uncertain - in the past, when Mu Chenling was idling and didn't want to read the memorial, Bai Feng wrote it on behalf of the writer, and it was also at Yushitai. I saw in the memorial that I was impeached for staying in the capital and not returning to the fiefdom.

Naturally, Bai Feng didn't want to go to Laoshizi's fief, although the fief the master gave him was quite close to the capital, and it wouldn't take too long to go back and forth, but after all, it was nothing compared to seeing each other day and night like this.He didn't even go back to the house in Chang'an Hutong very often, and he was used to going back to Minglan Palace every morning and morning.

But it's one thing for him not to want to. If he embarrasses the master because of his own affairs, then it really shouldn't be.

"What's so embarrassing, what are you doing listening to their gossip?" Mu Chenling didn't think so, but couldn't help teasing him, "The people at Yushitai are getting more and more lenient, even if you are in the capital or in the fief I have to take care of it... Do I even have to take care of which bed His Royal Highness Chen Wang sleeps in tomorrow?"

Bai Feng was seriously thinking about whether he should go to the fief for a while, but he blushed at Mu Chenling's words, and didn't know how to reply for a while.

There were still a few palace servants serving in the palace, Mu Chenling's voice wasn't too loud, but he didn't deliberately suppress it, the little eunuchs next to him could definitely hear it.

Although it's not once or twice, but this kind of thing...it's a bit embarrassing no matter what.

Mu Chenling laughed: "How long have you been with me, why is your face still so thin..."

Having said that, Mu Chenling still waved his hands to get all the waiters back out, and then pulled them to sit on the couch: "You don't have to believe or pay attention to what other people say, just let them Say it."

Bai Feng nodded: "Yes, my subordinates did not believe what they said."

"It should be like this," Mu Chenling looked at the pile of memorials on the table and felt a headache, so he conveniently divided half of them, and handed him a writing brush, "You don't know whether I get along with you or not?"

Bai Feng took the pen, always feeling a little ashamed in his heart, obviously the master trusted him so much, but he was still worried about what was there because of what other people said, it was a bit too much to think about it.

"This subordinate knows his mistake," Bai Feng felt more and more guilty as he thought about it, "This subordinate shouldn't just listen to what others say and think about it, and even use this kind of thing to trouble you... Please punish me, Master."

Mu Chenling didn't think there was anything to worry about. On the contrary, he quite liked Bai Feng's way of telling him what he thought in his heart, not hiding it, nor deliberately hiding it from himself, and being open and frank unconsciously. , they are all His Royal Highness Chen Wang who has power over the government and the public, and in this respect, he is exactly the same as the little dark guard that he brought with him at the beginning.

It's the problem of asking for punishment at every turn, which can't be overcome no matter how hard it is.

Mu Chenling sighed: "How long have you been with me, why are you still talking so outrageously?"

Bai Feng keenly felt that the master's tone seemed to be a little unhappy, and he suddenly became nervous, and because he was trained once before, he did not dare to kneel down, so he had to carefully admit his mistake.

Mu Chenling couldn't help sighing again.

It was obvious that I was coaxed much better by myself before. Since I frightened the person that time, this person seemed to be frightened. It is usually fine, but sometimes I do not pay attention to my words and bring out some unhappy meanings. Can scare people, nervous, easily dare not be as presumptuous as before.

Mu Chenling also knew that it was she who said that she didn't want him and scared people so badly, so she couldn't say anything about him, so she could only think about how to get rid of this problem again, at least she couldn't keep trembling with herself like this all the time. .

"You'll be fined somewhere, and you should tell me like this if you have something to do." Mu Chenling shook his head helplessly, and then smiled along with his words, "Come on, you've already said this, and I can't refute you— ——Just in time, there are a lot of memorials today, you should approve them for me, and don’t rest until they are approved.”

Naturally, Bai Feng could tell that the master had no intention of blaming him, so he pursed his lips and replied: "Yes, thank you for trusting the master."

"Thank you for what?" Mu Chenling didn't like his tricks, "This is punishing you, do you know?"

Bai Feng smiled at him, and responded softly: "Yes, this subordinate will receive the punishment."

Mu Chenling originally wanted to scare people, so he deliberately put down his pen and didn't look at him. He took a copy of Zuo Zhuan and read it there, but after reading it for a while, he couldn't hold back anymore. When he put down the book, he saw Bai Feng trying to imitate him. Reviewing the memorial in my own handwriting, it is tiring to look at it with my back straight.

Even though Bai Feng was born in a secret guard, he was not made with iron after all.Mu Chenling made a lot of trouble last night, and this morning Bai Feng went to the martial arts arena with a few generals after the court, and he hasn't had a rest until now.

Mu Chenling felt a little distressed when he thought about it, so he simply pushed someone over with a cup of tea: "It's alright, don't worry, take a break when you're tired, don't hold on."

Bai Feng took the tea and knew that the master felt sorry for him, so he put down his pen and held the teacup for a while, then picked out all the memorials related to him and put them aside.

"It's all to impeach you?" Mu Chenling laughed, "If you don't hide it and fool it, you single it out for me to see? Don't worry that I will alienate you if I really believe their words?"

Bai Feng froze for a moment, then shook his head seriously.

He wasn't really worried that his master would alienate him. .

He is different from the civil and martial arts of the Manchu Dynasty. He didn't get his fame after ten years of hard work, and he didn't have any clan and family behind him.Whether it is the military power or the king with a different surname, they are all drawn up by the master. Life and death, honor and disgrace are all in the master's mind.

Sometimes Bai Feng even felt that the seat of Prince Chen was not as convenient as being a secret guard.At least the latter can justifiably guard Minglan Palace, but after becoming His Royal Highness Chen Wang, he will be forced to return to the fiefdom by the courtiers one by one.

He didn't ask for anything, and money and power didn't matter to him, it was nothing more than what the master rewarded and he went on. How can there be any monarch and minister who is not alienated from suspicion.

Since ancient times, there have been kings with different surnames who are suspected by the emperor, but there has never been a secret guard who has been suspected by the master.
