Your Majesty, after he played stupid and overturned the car

On New Year's Eve, Lingxi was indifferent, and there was no sound of firecrackers in previous years. The streets and alleys were empty. Occasionally, people burned valuables on the street, and the sound of crying scattered under the night.

There is no sense of the year.

The Son of Heaven had a family feast with Lu's siblings, Qi's and his wife in the original Lucheng, and had two drinks on the table. As soon as Ming Wanzhao toasted, Lu Yunchuan mercilessly snatched it away, and replaced him with a bowl that was the same as Ming Yelan's. Feta.

Ming Yelan laughed out loud.

Ming Wanzhao wished he could splash the goat milk soup on Lu Yunchuan's face, but he finally swallowed it expressionlessly.

Ming Yelan was pregnant and prone to fatigue, and couldn't keep up with the age, so she went back to rest after talking with Ming Wanzhao for a while, and Qi Chaoce naturally followed her back.

Every year Lu Ziyuan wants to keep the New Year's Eve together with Qi Chengji, guarding a spiritual tablet for the New Year's Eve, and they don't stay for long.

The winter wind in Lingxi is bitterly cold, charcoal fires are burning in the room, and a stove is plugged in to warm the couch. Ming Wanzhao looks at the accounts handed over by the Ministry of Households before the lamp. Those accounts in the past are messy and reasonable. I don't know, but the account handed in today to Daliang for the second half of the year was written by Su Jingci, but it's still clear, and it's clear in every detail.

Ming Wanzhao was looking at it seriously, when the wooden hairpin was suddenly taken away, and the ink-splashed black hair fell down instantly, Ming Wanzhao didn't look up, just said: "There is still half an hour before New Year's Eve."

"Then you should prepare to rest." Lu Yunchuan took out the account from him again, and took the teacup on the case to press the footer for him, so as not to know where to see tomorrow, "Xue Blind is just right, take a rest You are a pair of beautiful moves, my lord."

Ming Wanzhao glanced at him helplessly, and smiled a little, "Su Jingci has done a good job. Mr. Su is getting old, and his body is getting worse day by day. He won't stay in court for long, so it's time to praise him."

Lu Yunchuan thought about it for a while, without refuting, he asked, "How is the imperial examination this year?"

He was still in front of the battle during the scientific examination, Daliang was rescued by Ming Wanzhao from the aristocratic family, but in fact, he was in a state of waiting to be reborn, and the court really lacked people.

Mentioning this, Ming Wanzhao sighed lightly and shook his head, "It's far from the second year of Jianyuan."

The top three in the scientific examination that year were all talented and talented scholars. Su Jingci even deliberately concealed his clumsiness.

This year's imperial examination, Ming Wanzhao saw that he was inferior, so he didn't give any important positions, and sent them all to the lower level to practice, if he has the ability

It's not too late to be promoted in the future.

Lu Yunchuan listened, and took a comb to comb the emperor's long hair. He usually held the heavy blade with a gentle hand, answering him a few words from time to time.

It wasn't until halfway through the midnight that they embraced someone and went to sleep together on the couch.

In Yijing, the defeat of Lingxi did not affect the middle of the capital, and every family was decorated with lanterns and festoons, and it was lively and jubilant.

In a small house in the city, there was no movement, only a dim oil lamp was burning.

Qiao Zihan sat at the table, the flickering lights reflected the lingering gloom between his brows and eyes, he held the gauze in both hands in his sleeves, he lost a lot of weight, and he no longer had the usual calm and gentle appearance.

The door was pushed open suddenly, and the cold wind poured in.

Qi Lingyun entered the door carrying the wooden box, with a calm face, put the wooden box on the table, and said: "It's time to change the medicine, the stick hurts the bone, if you don't take good care of it, you won't even be able to lift a pen in the future."

Qiao Zihan's expression twisted for a moment.

He really suffered a lot in the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice. He used the pincer from his knuckles to his wrists. Shen Lin even invited Su Jingci to pull out the nails of his ten fingers.

Qiao Zihan knew that Su Jingci was aiming at destroying him.

"Change it." Qiao Zihan tried his best to calm down, raised his eyes and glanced at Qi Lingyun, who looked normal, and said with a sneer, "You rescued me, but it was a crime of collaborating with the enemy and treason."

Qi Lingyun slowly removed the gauze for him, and said softly: "The sinner is the loser, and I haven't lost yet."

Qiao Zihan endured the pain, cold sweat dripped down his cheeks, his eyes were fierce like a vicious dog.

"What's more, no emperor would bear to carve up the land with foreigners." Qi Lingyun said to himself, he looked at the gentleman, but his hands were not slow, and his tone was flat, "For the future, it is worth fighting for."

Qiao Zihan gritted his molars tightly, and after a while, he let out a "ha" laugh, and his eyes were full of madness.

People in this world are always greedy for power and love money, even Su Jinhuai's confidants, how is it different from Lu Zuoxian and others? !

All the way!It's just sanctimonious.

In order to win over the officials, Ming Wanzhao also used money to lure them?He praised Su Jingci, gave the eldest princess a marriage to Qi Chaoce, restored Duke Rongsu's hereditary succession, and now even appointed a female general in person to the extreme!

What etiquette rules?Worthless in front of interests!Isn't Su Jinhuai the most disciplined?That Ming Wanzhao acted so outrageously that even Lu Yunchuan became his guest of honor. Su Jinhuai's allegiance to Ming Wanzhao is just a good word!

After all, since Ming Wanzhao can be the emperor, why can't he? !

"Have you delivered the letter?" Qiao Zihan asked.

Qi Lingyun replied: "The surrounding area of ​​Yijing has been strictly investigated in the past few days, and it can only be sent out on New Year's Eve today. It is not clear whether it will be in the hands of Mr. Feng."

Know. "

"According to what I said, it will naturally be in his hands." Qiao Zihan's voice was a little tight in pain.

Qi Lingyun didn't respond, and after treating his injuries, he packed up his things, carried them out of the door and said: "The whole city is looking for you, don't leave the house casually."

Qiao Zihan's temples were hanging down in a mess, and he responded with a hoarse "Yes".

Shen Lin didn't get married for a long time, so he would go to the Su Mansion together during the New Year's and holidays, and naturally he would come to the house with gifts on New Year's Eve.Su Jinhuai was old, and he went back to his room to rest just after half a child's hour. Su Jingci naturally should entertain Shen Lin. The two knew each other well and mentioned Qiao Zihan.

Su Jingci ordered people to pour tea and said: "If I knew he was running so fast, I should have hit harder that day, and I would have disabled him even if I didn't die, so as to avoid many troubles in the future."

Speaking of torture, after so many years in the Ministry of Punishment, Shen Lin felt ashamed of Su Jingci.

"Didn't you just want to abolish him that day?" Shen Lin said with a smile, "You hurt your wrists and ten fingers, and it will be difficult to hold a pen while riding a horse in the future."

"I only interrogated him for an hour." Su Jingci said in an innocent tone, even with a gentleman's demeanor, as if he was talking about something elegant, "It's not enough to abolish him. It's hard to get rid of Mr. Lu and get Mingjun." Hand in hand, if the monarch and ministers are united, a prosperous age is just around the corner, Qiao Leping doesn't know good and bad, and if he insists on getting in, he can't blame us for being ruthless."

Shen Lin took a sip of tea and couldn't deny it.

How many courtiers are waiting for this day, the emperor will be in charge, and the beam will prosper.Why did Daliang fall back then? !It's not because of internal turmoil!

The eunuchs are in chaos and the aristocratic family is in power, which has almost wiped out the leader. If there is another battle for the throne, it will become even worse.After drinking tea, it was getting late, the Su Mansion had already prepared a guest room, and Shen Lin went there by himself with ease.

Su Jingci sat in the hall, took a sip of tea by himself, he had said several times before that he respected Ming Wanzhao, but this one who was younger than him

Son of Heaven, you can always do something unexpected.

It is only natural that meritorious ministers should be rewarded, and guilty ministers should be punished, so why should there be a distinction between men and women? !Based on the act of Ming Wanzhao canonizing Lu Ziluan, Su Jingci also felt that he was not loyal to the wrong person.

If you bow to the master who has been loyal to you until death, and you can't even distinguish between rewards and punishments, it's so boring.

Su Jingci appreciates such a bold and decisive temperament.

The border truce also gave the soldiers a chance to breathe, and even the Ministry of Industry also breathed a sigh of relief. After the new year, the Ministry of Industry Zhezi went to Lingxi, and Lu Yunchuan practiced soldiers and horses. Ming Wanzhao was reading the Zhezi when he left, and saw him when he came back Still at the desk for approval.

"Why are there so many?" Lu Yunchuan wiped his sweat with a cloth towel, and glanced at the pile of memorials from the corner of his eye.

Ming Wanzhao didn't answer, but said: "Xu Zhiwei said that all three heavy crossbow carts in the west of the mausoleum were destroyed in this battle. The Ministry of Industry has rushed to manufacture ten and sent them to the border immediately. What I mean is that Yubei focuses on defense. , Divided into four units, Lingxi is easy to attack and difficult to defend, then divided into six units, there are many light crossbows, although the range is not as far as bows and arrows, but the speed is fast, if you want to fight with Northern Xinjiang when the snow melts, you will need weapons. In addition, horses, food and grass are all tight."

"That's right." Lu Yunchuan nodded in agreement, "Just follow your majesty's instructions, but it's hard to say about the food and grass. This year, the refugees have scattered, and even Jiangdong has opened warehouses to release food. Jiangdong is self-sufficient and has to provide food for Lingxi and Yubei. It’s not easy, if we ask for food and grass now, I’m afraid there won’t be much.”

Ming Wanzhao nodded lightly and said: "I know, that's why I want to tell you about it."

When Lu Yunchuan saw Ming Wanzhao, he couldn't abide by the rules, and when he was talking, he had already walked around him, and he stretched out his arms to hug him, touching and caressing dishonestly, but his mouth was very serious: "Your Majesty said, I'm listening."

Ming Wanzhao endured him for a while, and said: "Yijing is too far away, so we can send some food, but isn't there a Longnan next to the west of the mausoleum?"

"Feng Bailu?" Lu Yunchuan pinched Ming Wanzhao's firm waist, loving it, "This person has been in Longnan for many years, has a deep foundation, and is involved with Qiao Zihan. It may be difficult to borrow money from him."

Ming Wanzhao couldn't bear it anymore, he slapped away the hand that was flirting back and forth, and then gave Lu Yunchuan a warning glance.

Lu Yunchuan's face was full of innocence.

"..." Ming Wanzhao looked away with a cold face, out of sight and out of mind, but he was still nestled in Lu Yunchuan's arms, and said lightly: "I want you to go here

I went there with my own edict, and on the way I also looked up Feng Bailu for me, I have never seen him before. "

"It's easy to say." Lu Yunchuan's ending was so slow that he had no good intentions. He unscrupulously looked at the beautiful side face of the emperor, and whispered to him, "Your Majesty let me go, but I can't go in vain."

Ming Wanzhao flinched away, squinted at him, but said softly, "Brother Lu, why are you still trying to settle accounts with me?"

Lu Yunchuan's heart was numb from his call, but he didn't let go, and said with a smile: "You have to give some favors before you can do things."

Ming Wanzhao stretched out his hand to caress Lu Yunchuan's handsome cheek, kissed him as softly as possible, and then whispered: "This is the deposit, and the rest can be exchanged with Longnan's food."

Lu Yunchuan's brown eyes dimmed for a moment, he stood up abruptly, hugged the Son of Heaven with his arms around his waist and hips, and smiled wickedly when he looked up at him.

"That's not going to work, I'll take the benefits first before doing things."
