Great General [Rebirth]

"You asked for leave to come to my place? You must have made a mistake." Zhao Yongxiu's voice had a hint of a cool smile, even though he knew that he shouldn't sneer at a young man for no reason.

"Bai Xianjie, Feng Buran, Prince Chen, anyone can approve you, you can go find them."

He felt that he shouldn't waste time with this young man. The old man in the family wanted to go fishing, and all his brothers had to accompany him.He dismissed the person in front of him with a few words, and then told Liang Wandeng a few words: "Pick out the Shanxi booklets and send them over at night."

After saying this, Zhao Yongxiu left.The young man walked out of the gate of the military department not far behind him. Zhao Yongxiu, who was walking in front, frowned. Although the road was facing the sky and each side walked half way, the anxious sight on his back was really impossible to ignore.Sitting in the sedan chair, Zhao Yongxiu raised his head, and the young man named Bai Wu stood in front of the white marble statue in front of the gate of the Ministry of War and stared blankly at this side, his eyes were like those of an abandoned puppy.

Putting down the sedan chair curtain, Zhao Yongxiu told the bearers to leave quickly.Didn't Xindao not approve just one leave slip, that kid wouldn't be able to find someone else to do this job, why is he so pitiful?The hesitant emotion in the big eyes was very puzzling. He had an intuition in his heart that this kid was a bit dangerous, and he had better stay away from him.

After returning to the prime minister's mansion, Zhao Yongxiu changed the heavy court clothes and put on a simple tunic, and went to the river.From afar, I saw three tall, short, fat and thin figures sitting under a row of willow trees on the embankment, dressed in brocade clothes, the youngest of whom was almost thirty.There are eight children in front of Guo Xiangye, De Xian Zhi Ya Xiu Qi Anping, De Xian Xiu An is the son, Xian Ya Qi Ping is the daughter.After adulthood, the sons get married and start businesses, and the daughters marry each other. Although most of them are in the capital, they still get together less and leave more.But every year, the brothers will take a few days to relax and chat with the old father.The three people gathered here today are the three sons in front of the Zhao family, the eldest Zhao Yongde, the third Zhao Yongzhi, and the seventh Zhao Yongan.

In fact, after doing the math, the brothers haven't been together for a long time.Zhao Yongxiu walked over, and when the three saw him coming, except Zhao Yongde, the other two stood up.

"Fifth brother, you're here." The seventh brother, Zhao Yong'an, greeted first.

Zhao Yongxiu nodded, and shouted to the other two: "Big brother, third brother."

Although the third son, Zhao Yongzhi, has a high ranking, he is low-key, and his birth mother's status is not high, so he is naturally a little more afraid of Zhao Yongxiu.Zhao Yongde also nodded in return, and the four sat down. Zhao Yongxiu glanced at the river. An old man was sitting on the bank of the river fishing. nose, and a poke goatee.

Looking at the profile of the old prime minister, Zhao Yongxiu gradually had a strange feeling.I don't know if it is the connection between the brothers, Zhao Yongde who was sitting on the side suddenly sighed and said: "Have you noticed, how many of our brothers, who looks the most like the old man?"

Zhao Yongzhi and Zhao Yongan turned their heads to look at the words. After a long while, Zhao Yongzhi turned his head, looked at the brothers, and said nothing.The seventh son, Zhao Yong'an, was thoughtful, "I've always felt that we all prefer our own mothers. If you want to say that the one who resembles Xiangye the most, don't tell me, it's really the ninth son. Master Xiang fits best..."

Having said that, Zhao Yong'an suddenly stopped talking, and carefully looked at Fifth Brother's face.Over the years, the Zhao family has had an unwritten agreement, which is also a taboo, and it is this old nine.Don't ask in front of Xiang Ye, let alone in front of Fifth Brother.Everyone avoided this topic, as if they chose to forget that person by coincidence.

Zhao Yongxiu didn't have an attack, but his expression had a sense of epiphany.

The boss, Zhao Yongde, showed a plausible smile: "I was in the army this time, and I met a very strange young man, and I became a brother with him, and became a friend for years."

"Brother is talking about Bai Xianjie's nephew, that Bai Fusheng?" Zhao Yongan asked.Some people in the capital have some things that are not secrets at all, especially among princes and princes.Almost on the day that 'Bai Wu' appeared in the capital, gossip about his name, his family background, etc. quickly spread on the tea tables of relatives and nobles.

"It's him." Zhao Yongde nodded, looking at the silhouette by the river, his thoughts were confused for a moment: "This young man is very strange."

He said two strange things in a row, and even Zhao Yongxiu was a little curious.

"What kind of strange method?" Zhao Yongxiu asked aloud.

"I know you don't believe in ghosts and gods, and I never believed in them until I met him again." Zhao Yongde muttered, his eyes darkened, "This kid, how should I say it, the first time I saw him, I felt a kind of A special feeling. But the more I had contact with him in the military, the feeling became stronger. I don’t know how to describe it, but that feeling is that I am very familiar with him. Sometimes he will say something and do something It made me feel terrified."

As soon as he finished speaking, there was silence for a while, and then Zhao Yongan laughed.

"Brother, what are you talking about? You've fought too many battles, and your mind is confused." The Zhao brothers never dared to joke about the fifth brother, Zhao Yongxiu, but the elder brother made jokes casually.

Zhao Yongde also smiled and waved his hands, "You just think I'm talking nonsense. I've been a little tired recently and can't move anymore. It's best to stay in the capital this time. There are so many younger generations, so let them have the opportunity to make contributions. Please trouble me Give me a free job and let me take care of myself."

To say that the Prime Minister of the country is getting old and his ears are not working well, it just happened that Zhao Yongde heard the last sentence.

"What nonsense are you talking about? If you want to live your life, at least wait until I am my age." The Prime Minister's yelling made the fish in the water run away after taking a bite of the bait, and the ripples jumped violently.

Zhao Yongde hurriedly got up and ran over, and smiled while helping to close the club: "You treat me as your son, I am still young, and I am in my fifties now."

"Well, I'm seventy this year. If your brother hadn't rebelled, I'd still go up and down every day without delaying things." The Prime Minister of the State groaned and pulled the rod, it was a big fish, jumping high. "Stupid thing, do you think the old man can't deal with you? You can't get out of the old man's oil pan even if you jump out of the sky. Yongde, call your brothers back and eat braised fish tonight. By the way, put you Brother Yao also called, he likes to eat this."

Zhao Yongde, who was holding the fish, slipped his hand when he heard this, and the fish fell out.Plop, plop, hop around and disappear in the river.Zhao Yongxiu stood behind with a dark face, and the other two brothers were far away. Of course, they heard what the Prime Minister said just now.

Zhao Yongde said with a smile, "Hey, it's all my fault, but I couldn't even catch a fish. Don't be angry, the afternoon is still long, and I will be able to catch it later."

"This river is so big, where do you go to find it? Then there is a moat underneath. Forget it, it has nothing to do with us, and it will be gone if it is gone." The Prime Minister of the country said this, waved his hand at last, and turned around go back.

People say that seventy is rare in ancient times, but the prime minister of the country has lived to this age, and his body and bones are still quite strong, and his spirit is hale and hearty. It's just that he has been a little bit unwell recently, and sometimes he doesn't pay attention and always talks about some things in the past.He often scares the people around him enough to think he is insane.But the Prime Minister of the country forgot after he finished speaking, and turned around to preach and do ideological education in a serious manner, there is no problem at all.

The sons were a little depressed, and the Prime Minister of the State gave them a lesson one by one along the way.He was a military commander, and he was a sage and sage who didn't like to talk. He has always had his own set of strict rules for disciplining his sons.The sons of the prime minister of the country are generally more obedient, like their mother, who is gentle, respectful and gentle. Generally, they obey his regulations and do a particularly good job.It can be said that none of these sons and daughters made the Prime Minister of the State take any thought or trouble his brains.

There is only one, who does not listen to words, scolds, or beatings.It can be said that the Prime Minister of the country spent all his energy on discipline and restraint on this one, and finally pulled a runaway little wild horse until he was fifteen or sixteen years old. Suddenly, one day, he fell into the moat and drowned...

"...and you, the third child, who reads all day instead of studying. You are in your 40s, and I haven't seen you read anything." Heck, I used to study, and the old man even praised me as the most obedient and well-behaved among my brothers, but now I'm being pulled out to lie on the arrow every two days, it's also inexplicable.

"The same goes for you, Lao Qi. I heard that you recently opened up some land in Shanxi? Do you have money and nowhere to spend it, or do you think the current situation is not chaotic enough, so you can't stay in the capital?" The blame turned to himself, Zhao Yongan looked at Fifth Brother with a wronged expression.You must know that he is not willing to go so far. The key is that Brother Wu is expanding his territory in Shanxi, and his business is just a cover, and it has a lot to do with the political situation in the court secretly.

Zhao Yongxiu finally opened his mouth: "Master Xiang, please don't say a few words."

"Well, your tone of voice is exactly like that of the eldest princess. It scares me." The Prime Minister muttered, threw the fishing rod on the ground, turned around and walked into another street with heroic steps.

No matter how you look at the back, you are a little rushed.The brothers looked at each other, Zhao Yongde slapped his forehead, "We still have important matters in the army, so let's go first."

The seventh brother, Zhao Yongan, stared: "Fifth brother, I have to pick up the goods you told me last time."

Both of them had legitimate excuses, and the youngest opened his mouth, wondering if he should say that he was going to the Imperial Academy to compile books.

Zhao Yongxiu frowned, "What to do, what to do, he is an old man, no one thinks of him."

That's what I said, but at such an advanced age, what if something happens?The old man will lose his temper if he goes out fishing today without an entourage, so he still has to follow alone.The others are busy people, the youngest Zhao Yongzhi sighed, "I'd better go and have a look, it would be nice to lose it."

So in front of the stone gate boundary sign at the crossroads, the brothers parted ways.The third child followed behind the Prime Minister and walked in the opposite direction.

He also said that Zhao Yongzhou had been depressed for a while since he left the Ministry of War.It's normal for Fifth Brother not to approve leave for him. He needs a vacation before he takes office, so it can't be justified.But he didn't feel at ease leaving Niang and Cuiyu in Sanqing County. He left in such a hurry at that time, and Cuiyu looked so pitiful. Besides, Zhang Yuming, Zhao Yongzhou actually didn't feel very good about him.Probably because he put him in the position of benefactor before.

If you want to ask for leave, the fastest way is to go to Chen Wang.Chenwang Mansion is very close to the Imperial Palace, only one street away.As soon as Zhao Yongzhou walked to the intersection, he saw a gorgeous cockpit approaching from afar.It came out from the direction of the palace, presumably some important person.To avoid causing trouble, Zhao Yongzhou stepped aside, wanting to wait for the big man to pass first.

When he got close, he heard a burst of hearty laughter, probably because it was too pleasant to hear, and Zhao Yongzhou slightly raised his head to look over.

The sky-blue gauze curtain is very elegant.The wind raised the veil, and sitting inside was a young man about seventeen or eighteen years old, with bright eyes and white teeth, a noble air, and an incomparable handsomeness.He was talking to the person sitting next to him, and the cute and elegant temperament revealed in his frowns and smiles was simply natural.

There was such a number one person in the palace, but Zhao Yongzhou didn't have the slightest impression, it can only mean that he died early.He was still a little skeptical at first, but after seeing clearly the other person sitting in the seat, he was completely sure of the identity of this important person: the little prince Rong Yue.

It might be that the eyes of passers-by were too straight, but the two people in the ride were very keen, so they looked over immediately.

Zhao Yongzhou didn't evade either, he stared at Feng Buran steadfastly, there was no emotion in his eyes, they were gray and dark.

Feng Buran frowned.

Rong Yue saw the expressions of the teacher and the pretty boy in her eyes, bent her lips and smiled, and said loudly: "Teacher, the maple leaves in Xiangshan are very beautiful these days. A few days ago, Jing and sister came back to tell me, but they were so hungry. Me. It's a pity that my father never let me go out of the palace, but fortunately, you promised to take me to see Maple Leaf, and you really didn't lie to me."

It took only a while for Cheng Huan to pass by, but Zhao Yongzhou didn't hear Qing Feng Buran's reply behind him.He turned around and walked back numbly, only halfway through the walk did he remember that he was going to the Prince Chen's Mansion.But it was getting late, and he had already walked half of the way back, so it was obviously inconvenient to go to the Prince Chen's mansion now.He pinched the leave application in his sleeve, and remembered when he was rejected by Fifth Brother, his mood sank step by step.After a whole day, it was really exhausting.

Although he had already made preparations, if he wanted to return to the capital, he would have to face many complicated and even cruel situations.He is already an adult in his thirties, so he is naturally prepared to bear everything.But today is his first day officially started. From the morning meeting until now, nothing has really made him happy.This is just the beginning, there is more to come.That's okay, he'll bear it.Whether Fifth Brother's refusal or Feng Buran's uncertain attitude, he would bear it all.Because they are all his closest people.

Zhao Yongzhou sighed, swallowing the soreness in his heart.But ah, sometimes even if a person can face the wind and rain of the outside world with strength, he will often be crushed by the blows given by the closest people.

Zhao Yongju, who was depressed, didn't pay much attention to the road ahead, and then bumped into someone.In fact, there is not much strength, and the other party is also standing upright.Zhao Yongzhou raised his head, and was about to say sorry, when he suddenly saw the old man in front of him, he was shocked.

Enduring the grievances for a whole day, somehow, at this moment, it surged out, no matter how hard I could bear it.

The prime minister's heart was racing: I'm really an idiot, I was hit by a young man while walking, and after the collision, I just planned to lie down and have a drink.Unexpectedly, it was too late and then it was so fast, the young man was startled, and then his eyes turned red, and tears burst into tears at the next moment, as if the flood gates had opened, so scary.In the middle of the main road, the Prime Minister of his country is a man of distinction, and those who come and go are all dumbfounded, thinking that his old man is so young.

Look at the third son of the Zhao family, who has been silently following not far away.He originally said that he would go up if someone bullied the old man, but now that a handsome young man is pulling the old man to cry with snot and tears, then he will not go up.What if it was the old man's illegitimate son, would he go and find him?

The third child of the Zhao family turned around silently and walked into the shop to pick out someone else's fan.
