The Road to the Imperial Examinations of Farmers in Ancient Times

"drive_"

A guard in front showed a token, and the general guarding the city did not dare to stop him, so he immediately waved his hand to get the soldiers out of the way, and let him out of the city.

A team on horseback went out of the city, and the one riding in the middle was the emperor after disguise, with a plain face, no one would look back on the road, even the ministers who had seen the emperor might not After someone recognized this as their emperor, the emperor left the capital with a group of guards.

No matter how crazy Li Wen's heart was, the emperor had secretly left Beijing with a group of guards, on his way to Nanyang Mansion.Now staying in the palace to act as a substitute for the emperor is a hidden guard next to the emperor. His body shape is similar to that of the emperor. After changing his face, he looks almost exactly the same as the real emperor.

The only thing that is difficult for the dark guard to imitate the emperor is the inherent nobility of the emperor.A person's temperament is the most difficult to imitate, so the person who imitates can only learn a shape, which is similar in appearance but not in spirit.

Normally, the secret guards protect the emperor in secret, and they have learned [-]% of the emperor's words and deeds, which is enough to fool the ministers in the court.On weekdays, when the emperor sits in the court, the ministers below are separated from the emperor by a long distance. Even if there are ministers who come to meet the emperor, the ministers dare not look directly at Long Yan. The ministers in the court can't tell the difference The subtle changes that happened to the emperor, so as long as they don't show their feet, it is still possible to hide the fact that the emperor is not in the capital from the ministers in the court.

This time the emperor left Beijing without even telling the queen, only a few people knew that the emperor was not in the capital, and Li Wen was one of them.There is also the old man who usually waits by the emperor's side. He has been by the emperor's side since he was the emperor. This one is also the emperor's confidant servant.

There is also King Jianning who entered the palace later, the emperor did not hide the matter from King Jianning about leaving the capital.

The emperor is not here in the capital, if something happens in the court, King Jianning can still come out to frighten the ministers in the court / There is Li Wen in the handling of general affairs of the court. Before leaving the capital, the emperor has already arranged these things properly .

"Don't worry, Brother Huang has a sense of propriety." Seeing Li Liuyuan's frowning expression, King Jianning reached out and patted Li Liuyuan on the shoulder. Personal guards, they will protect the emperor."

Compared to Li Liuyuan's frowning expression, King Jianning was not too worried about his brother's departure from the capital, "Let's just help hide it from the ministers in the court."

It can be seen that this prince has been covering up his elder brother a lot in the past.

Li Wen glanced at King Jianning, but remembered that when he was in Nanyang Mansion, he had seen the emperor and Zhao Xiangyi went to see his teacher. At that time, the emperor was only the prince, and the prince must have concealed it from everyone in the capital. away from the capital.

At least the prince is already the emperor at this moment, so don't worry about someone checking the post, right?The emperor led the people to go there quickly, and the road went smoothly. If you hurry up, you will be able to return to the capital in half a month.Half a month is not long, nor is it short, I hope nothing happens here in the capital.

But knowing it was one thing, but he couldn't help but not worry.

The emperor had just ascended the throne, and left the capital with only a dozen guards by his side. If something happened along the way, a mere courtier like him really couldn't bear the responsibility.Li Wen could only pray in his heart that the emperor's journey would be smooth and safe, that nothing unexpected would happen, and that it would be true to return to the capital as soon as possible.

It was the first time that Li Wen felt such a heavy burden on his body when the emperor left the capital. At least the emperor was here in the capital, and he knew that someone above him would carry him no matter what he did.At this time, Zhao Xiangyi also took people to deal with the affairs of the River Gang. They might not be able to return to the capital within a month or two. It would be fast if they could deal with the affairs over there in a month or two. up.

Before the palace gate was closed, they came out of the palace, and King Jianning invited, "This king invites Li Liuyuan to have a drink?"

"The lower official thanked the lord, but the lower official still has some unfinished business." Li Wen tactfully rejected King Jianning's invitation, really not in the mood to have a drink with King Jianning at this time.Seeing the pretense, King Jianning did not force Li Wen, but only said to make an appointment another day when he is free, "Li Liuyuan can no longer refuse me at that time."

"Yes, my lord." Li Wen replied.

"If you still have something to do, go and do your work first." King Jianning didn't force Li Wen to let him go.

"Let me take my leave." After Li Wen saluted, he took his people back.

"My lord."

"Let's go."

King Jianning glanced at Li Wen who was leaving, and left with his own people, and the two of them happened to be walking in opposite directions.

Yang Shaojun was raised by Empress Shangguan since he was born, and grew up behind the crown prince since he was a child. He learned to write when he was young, and it was his elder brother who held his hand and taught him to write stroke by stroke, so even when he grows up For so many years, Yang Shaojun has been thinking about his elder brother's kindness to him, and the relationship with his elder brother is extremely good. Now that his elder brother has ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, King Jianning has no such loyalty to his elder brother.

change.

Compared with other elder brothers being brothers, Yang Shaojun naturally hoped that his prince brother would be the emperor.

Anyway, he himself knew that it wasn't that piece of material, and he never thought about the position that didn't belong to him. That's why he was able to stay here in the capital in the end.He is loyal to his elder brother, and this loyalty makes his elder brother trust him, so every time his elder brother leaves the capital, Yang Shaojun knows about it, and he always remembers to keep a good secret for his elder brother, and cannot tell these things to the outside world.

In the evening, King Jianning and Situ Yu made an appointment for a drink. Situ Yu is the younger brother of Empress Situ Xue, and now he has been promoted to the state's brother-in-law.When Yang Shaojun arrived, Situ Yu was already here, and the third young master Shangguan Yixiang from Anyuan Mansion and Pingyuanhou Mansion's Young Master Xue were all here.

These people have always been inseparable, if one is here, the others must follow.

"My lord, you were the last one to come." Situ Yu, who became the uncle of the country, is no different from before, he looks good,

Dressed up like a finely crafted little boy.There was a smirk on Situ Yu's face, the last one who came was going to be punished with wine, he winked, and some servants came up to pour the wine.

You can't break this rule just because you become a prince.

"Yes, this king has drunk this cup." King Jianning didn't break the rules by relying on his status as a prince.

It’s fine if someone sees the prince drinking a cup, but Situ Yu has to let King Jianning drink three cups.

"Okay, okay, let's pour the bar." King Jianning didn't say anything, and didn't bargain, but saw Situ Yu with a wicked smile on his face, and said with a little disgust, "Xuan'er is much cuter than you. "King Jianning was talking about the little prince. The more he looked at it, the more he felt that Xuan'er's face looked like Situ Yu, especially when he smiled.

"That is, our Xuan'er must be cute." When it comes to the little nephew, Situ Yu, the uncle, still likes this little nephew very much. In the past, every time he went to the East Palace, he would bring some fun things for the little nephew. Give it to my little nephew.

"Heihehe, I haven't seen Xuan'er recently, has Xuan'er grown up a little bit? Did you say you miss my little brother-in-law?"

"I haven't heard of it." King Jianning was here waiting to retaliate against Uncle Xiaoguo, and he also said that he saw the little prince when he entered the palace today, and the little prince called him little uncle, how cute and cute he looked.

Situ Yu gritted his teeth when he heard that, he will also enter the palace tomorrow!snort!

Since working with Li Liuyuan, these dandies in the capital have found things to do, and now they rarely cause trouble in the capital.Situ Yu, who has become the brother-in-law of the country, feels that he has a responsibility. He can't help the elder sister in the palace, but he can't cause trouble for the elder sister and the emperor, can he?

They are now holding official posts in the court. Although they are idle posts, they are all serious posts.These dandies in the capital feel that even if they are dandies, they are not the same dandies, they are a higher level than ordinary dandies who only know how to eat and wait to die. How can they all work for the court and serve the emperor? Doing business, this immediately becomes different.

When Li Wen returned to the mansion, he went into the study after dinner. It was not a lie that he told King Jianning that he had business to deal with, but that there were really many things waiting for him to deal with when he came back.It was only after sitting in the study for a long time that he came back to his senses that he realized that the things on the table had not been dealt with at all.

Forest

The beginning of spring after the new year has passed, but it is still very cold in the first month of the year.

The night got darker and colder, Li Tong saw that it was already late at night, and his master had been sitting motionless in the study for so long, and he didn't know why he was in a daze, "Master, it's getting late, why not?" If there is anything unresolved, why don't you deal with it tomorrow and go to rest earlier."

"Yeah." Really not in the mood to deal with these things, and it would not be very efficient to continue sitting down, so Li Wen got up, packed the things on the table, left the study, and walked towards the bedroom.

Just lying in bed at night, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep.

He was alone on the bed, and he couldn't get warm no matter how much he rolled the bed.

Li Wen pulled the quilt over his head, only half of his face was exposed, the smell of that person still remained in the quilt, but the person was not by his side.

Sure enough, getting used to a person is hard to quit, Li Wen sighed, thinking about the man who is not in the capital, wondering if he is doing well outside, if he has a place to sleep at night, if the food is not good, and when he gets there, he will be with him. Have the leaders of the river gang met, will the matter be handled smoothly, will there be any troubles, will there be casualties if the people on both sides start fighting...

And when the emperor leaves Beijing, will he encounter any danger on the way.

Dean Fu, would you like to come to the capital...

This night, Mr. Li fell asleep with his mind full of random thoughts.
