What about the soft and cute bamboo horse I am a freshman?

The news that Yuan Jiuyao, the great hero in the battle of Chongjinguan, who regarded fame and wealth as nothing, and cared about the world, brought his apprentice back to Beijing did not take long to reach the palace.

So Emperor Feng Yuan's imperial edict came to Yuan Mansion.

Emperor Feng Yuan summoned Yuanchu, and after inquiring about his intentions, he appointed him a job as a paint array division. He heard that Yuanchu had brought a young child, and he was sympathetic to his hard work in raising the child, so he sent a number of mothers and maids to come here. The house is for dispatch.

Now the situation in the Huazhen Division is complicated. The national teacher Liang Hang is the elder brother of the empress and the eldest prince's uncle, and Xie Chong, the southern yamen right envoy of the Huazhen Division, is the younger brother of Concubine Xie and the uncle of the second prince.

When the old national teacher was in power, Liang Hang served as the Zuo envoy of Beiya, the division of painting formations. Like Xie Chong, he was the successor of the old national teacher. The younger sister, Princess Jincheng, married Beicheng and became a close relative, and the emperor pointed out that the daughter of the old national teacher married Liang Hang, so the position of national teacher naturally fell on Liang Hang.

It was the situation where Empress Liang was supposed to dominate and set up the first prince Xu Zhang, but he didn't want the second prince Xu Yun to show his talent in drawing arrays. Emperor Feng Yuan didn't know whether it was out of intentional check and balance or other reasons, he began to favor the second prince and ignored him. Eldest prince, the position of the crown prince has become an unresolved matter.

At the beginning of the Yuan Dynasty, he had no intention of getting involved in this messy situation, so he asked Emperor Feng Yuan for a free job to sort out and write some manuals in the painting array department, and by the way give some guidance to the painting array teachers in the painting array department.

And Jinshi is now studying in the private school of the National Teacher's Mansion. In order to prevent Xie Chong from guessing, Yuanchu also went to Xie Chong's mansion from time to time.

Now everyone in the capital knows that the newcomer Yuan Jiuyao is an out-and-out "neutral faction" and will not participate in the battle for the heir apparent between the two sides.At the beginning of the Yuan Dynasty, because of "neutrality", Emperor Feng Yuan actually had more trust than Liang Hang and Xie Chong.

The twists and turns between the adults did not affect the friendship of the children.

Ever since he became friends with Liang Fang, Jin Shi didn't need to be reminded at the beginning of Yuan Dynasty every day. Look interesting.

The only thing that makes Jin Shi unhappy is that the activities during the "break" time of the private school in the National Teacher's Mansion are too monotonous.

Although the gentle Mrs. Liang brought all kinds of snacks and fruits to the two children, both Mrs. Liang and Liang Fang had a very polite and demure temperament. Even during the rest time, Liang Fang was eating snacks, While playing an extremely elegant game like "Flying Flower Order".

After Jin Shi racked his brains countless times without even catching up with a proverb with "autumn", he spread out on the couch and wailed: "Can't we play some things that children should play? Such as peek-a-boo playing house What?"

Liang Fang shook his head: "We are already six years old, not three-year-olds anymore, childish play is too childish."

"I'm not yet six years old," Jinshi tried hard to refute, "I'm winter's birthday!"

"By the way," Liang Fang turned his head to the side, looking at the "future rival" who is lazy and has no shape, "I remember Yuan Jiuyao mentioned that you are three months younger than me?"

Jin Shi turned over: "Yes, I was born in the twelfth lunar month."

"What about the specific date?"

Jin Shi raised his hand and said happily: "New Year's Eve! Let's celebrate together!"

Liang Fang disapproved: "Don't use idioms indiscriminately."

Jinshi laughed "hehe" twice, and then asked curiously, "How do you spend the New Year in the capital?"

Liang Fang recalled for a while: "I went to the palace. Your Majesty will celebrate with the courtiers and keep the New Year's Eve. There will be a ceremony."

As soon as I heard this Jinshi, I became excited: "Hey, isn't there a lot of delicious and fun things to do with other children?"

After getting along for many days, Liang Fang already had a deep understanding of Jinshi's temperament, that is, standard people go crazy, and the more people there are, the more energetic he becomes.

"Yes, but," Liang Fang warned, "there will still be a lot of adults there. If there is any behavior that does not conform to the etiquette, it will bring serious consequences to the adults who brought you in."

Jinshi froze when he heard this: "Is that so...that Yuan... my master probably won't take me there."

"Oh, speaking of this," Liang Fang put down the tea in his hand, "I won't be coming from tomorrow, you should be familiar with the road to the National Teacher's Mansion, right?"

Jin Shi was taken aback: "Ah? Why didn't you come?"

Liang Fang hesitated: "Well... I have some things to do starting tomorrow."

Jinshi knew that Liang Fang didn't need to accompany him to private school at all. These days, Liang Fang was helping him adapt to the environment and familiarize himself with various places in the National Teacher's Mansion. Tupu, I think he must have delayed Liang Fang's study progress these days.

So Jin Shi concealed the disappointment in his heart, and gave Liang Fang a big smile: "Well, don't worry, I'm familiar with the road here, if you have something to do, go to it!"

Although Jinshi tried his best to be indifferent in the National Teacher's Mansion, but when he returned home, he was still noticed by Yuanchu.

Yuan Chu tucked the quilt for him, touched his forehead and asked, "What's the matter? Is there anything unhappy today?"

Jinshi has never hidden anything from Yuanchu. He sighed a little, and said that Liang Fang would not be able to accompany him to study from tomorrow, and he was a little worried that his study progress was too slow to delay Liang Fang.

At the beginning of the Yuan Dynasty, he pinched his fingers and said, "It's almost time to count, it should have nothing to do with you, don't think about it."

Hearing what Yuanchu said, Jinshi became energetic: "What day is it?"

Yuan Chu smiled mysteriously: "It's okay, it's something you're not interested in anyway."

Jinshi thought why both of them were so secretive, pestering Yuan Chu to tell the truth, Yuan Chu held down the child's restless limbs and stuffed them back into the quilt to wrap them tightly, and flicked his hands lightly. Forehead: "If you want to know, why don't you ask Song Chengyuan tomorrow?"

Song Chengyuan is Mr. Song who enlightened Jinshi, and the painting array teacher of Hui Chengyuan under the Painting Array Department.

Jin Shi blinked: "Can I ask this?"

Yuan Chu smiled: "Of course I can ask, well, it's getting late, go to bed, or be careful not to sleep enough to grow taller."

In the past, these words were stabbing Jin Shi's deathbed, but tonight he pretended to be troubled, and risked not growing taller, flipped the pancakes over and over again, and finally got angry at the beginning of Yuan, who had to get up early the next day to go to Tuizhen Si Dianmao, He drew a detainment talisman on his body overnight, and Jin Shi lay on the bed like a wooden man, and after a while there was a soft snoring sound, Yuan Chu gently tore off the detainment talisman for him.

At the beginning of the Yuan Dynasty, he sighed that when the child was older, he also had troubles.

Early the next morning, Jinshi appeared at the private school of the National Teacher's Mansion with two dark circles under his eyes, which shocked Song Chengyuan.

When Jin Shi saw Mr. Song, he immediately grabbed him and asked Liang Fang where he went today and what he did.

Song Chengyuan was a little strange: "Young master, didn't he tell you?"

Jinshi shook his head.

Song Chengyuan thought for a while, and then guessed: "Oh, maybe it's because you don't like fighting formations, so the young master didn't tell you.'

"Is it related to the fighting formation?"

Song Chengyuan smiled: "Yeah, isn't it Lidong today? The Young Eagle Winter Battle of the Tuzhen Division has begun, and the young master is going to participate in the Winter Battle."

Young Eagles Winter Battle... Do you mean the fighting formation?A fight in winter?

"Are you interested in Jinshi?" Song Chengyuan asked, "If you are interested, you can also participate. Children under the age of ten can participate in the Winter War. It is a big competition specially set up for you."

Specially set up for children under the age of ten, fighting competition?

Jinshi didn't like fighting formations, he always thought it was because Yuanchu told him that his parents died in the fighting formation at Chongjinguan, so when he traveled with Yuanchu, even though Yuanchu taught himself some fighting formations according to local conditions, But when he really thought of the battle array that would hurt so many people, he felt a little repulsed by it in his heart, and he didn't want to use it even after he learned it.

But now, Liang Fang went to participate in the competition, which aroused Jin Shi's curiosity.

He hasn't seen Liang Fang fight yet, no, to be precise, he hasn't seen anyone fight seriously.So he asked Song Chengyuan to take him to see, Song Chengyuan readily agreed.

The location of the winter battle is a special battle field under the Huazhen Division, which is located outside the Beicheng City of the capital, and the National Teacher's Mansion is just to the north of the capital.

Jinshi stood at the door, looking at the plaque in front of him with the imprint of Qinglong, the master of painting, with a few words written on the plaque.

Jin Shi muttered with difficulty: "What is this... array..."

"Jiazi formation." A distasteful voice came from behind, "Where did the brat come from who doesn't even know the words?"

Jin Shi turned his head and saw a young man standing behind him who was a head taller than him. The young man was wearing a low-key but luxurious black embroidered cloak with gold thread, and a golden hair crown. , with contempt in his eyes, a straight nose, and his thin lips pursed in dissatisfaction.

He was obviously a handsome young man, but he had a gloomy look on his face.

"Boy," the boy squinted his eyes and looked Jinshi up and down, "You are also here to participate in the Winter War, right?"

"Ah I……"

Before Jinshi finished speaking, he was dragged down to his knees by Song Chengyuan who had just registered his identity and hurried over.

Song Chengyuan saluted the young man respectfully: "I have met His Royal Highness King Wen."

King Wen?

Jin Shi, who was lying on the ground with Mr. Song, remembered that he had heard it mentioned at the beginning of the Yuan Dynasty that King Wen seemed to be the second prince today?

Is it...Xu Yun?

Xu Yun looked at the kneeling one big and one small, snorted, trotted over with the eunuch, leaned over and whispered a few words in his ear, Xu Yun's face changed, and immediately strode towards the door .

After King Wen's people went in, Song Chengyuan pulled Jinshi up.

"Fortunately, the young master is here today," Song Chengyuan said with gratitude, "otherwise I don't know how to deal with His Highness King Wen."

Jin Shi poked his head and looked inside the door, but found that there was no one there, and he couldn't even see the backs of those people.

Are they that fast?

Jinshi turned his head and asked puzzledly, "Deal with it?"

Song Chengyuan realized that he had made a slip of the tongue, coughed in embarrassment, "hush" to Jin Shi, and then whispered: "His Royal Highness Wen Wang's temper is unpredictable, but the one he has always disliked is the young master. Today is probably [-]% It was for the sake of shame, the attendant probably told him just now that the young master was having a fight inside, so he went in right away."

So, His Royal Highness King Wen didn't make a moth at the door because Liang Fang was inside?

but……

Jin Shi asked worriedly: "Does he have any grudges against Liang Fang?"

Song Chengyuan sighed and shook his head: "It's a big hatred..."

Jin Shi suddenly became anxious: "Then why don't we help Liang Fang?"

Song Chengyuan looked at the anxious child with his head up, and smiled: "Don't worry, it's okay, you put this on first, and put it on your little finger."

Jin Shi looked at a small silver ring that Mr. Song handed him, on which was engraved a circle of formations. He looked at it carefully and felt that he had never seen this formation before.

"This is not a complete formation," Jin Shi said, "Is it incomplete?"

Song Chengyuan smiled and said, "You take it first."

Jin Shi put it on the little finger, and the silver ring on the white and tender little finger fit just right.

Then Mr. Song led him into the gate under the plaque of the Yazi formation.

The moment he bought the threshold, he was shocked by the scene in front of him.
