Xu Jiashi's birthday is on the first day of June.

On May 25, the missions of Six Jingguo and Daiqin entered Beijing one after another. In the early morning of May 27, Yan Sui received the chief envoys of the two countries.

The chief envoy of the Yasukuni is an old acquaintance. He is Li Zhen, the son of the Yasukuni Taibao Li Mao.

In the court hall, Yan Sui greeted the kings of the two countries well, and after a polite conversation, the emperor invited the civil and military ministers and the two missions to the Hall of Supreme Harmony for a banquet.

The banquet started at noon, and because he was still drinking medicine every day, Yan Sui replaced wine with tea. After a few cups of tea, Yan Sui asked Li Zhen: "I haven't seen you in half a year, how is Tai Bao?"

Li Zhen is 25 years old this year. He is a rare talent in both civil and military affairs in the family. Six years ago, he won the first prize in the imperial examination, but got a military officer position. He trains soldiers and horses in the barracks every day.

Li Zhendao: "Reporting to Your Majesty, my father fell from a horse half a month ago and hurt his waist. It is a pity that he cannot come to see His Majesty while he is recuperating in bed."

Yan Sui was about to express condolences when he suddenly heard Dai Qin, who was sitting opposite Li Zhen, say: "After all, people in the Central Plains do not live on horseback. .My tribe has the method of taming horses, and I have tested it a hundred times. I would like to offer it to Your Majesty with the BMW."

Yan Sui cast his gaze, and it was Daiqin's second prince who was speaking, named Wuyun Baoyin, who was the head of the Daiqin mission.

Wu Yun Baoyin is dressed in a prairie costume, with white leather boots on his feet, his jacket is the leader's double-breasted black robe with gold rims, and his outer robe exposes his right shoulder. , with beeswax turquoise falling.Sitting with legs spread wide, the whole person looks like a colorful peacock, the skin is tough and healthy light chestnut, the facial features are handsome, and the eyes are especially bright.

Yan Sui didn't pay much attention to such an eye-catching outfit before, probably because Li Zhen is an acquaintance or even a distant relative.Apart from greeting relatives, Yan Sui wondered whether Xu Jia's Xiumu would pass the time by fishing at home, and would he be able to catch it?

The Daiqin tribe came here to establish diplomatic relations, so they naturally wanted to take the initiative to show their favor. They brought a lot of gifts during this trip, including horses, cattle and sheep.

Yan Sui heard that the prairie is luxuriant and suitable for raising horses, so he nodded: "Thank you for your generous gift and kindness. I am really surprised that the prince can speak my Central Plains language. There are guests who come from the grassland and have traveled hard. I wonder if they can adapt to the food and climate of Kyoto. Same Fang If there is any inadequacy in the reception in the hall, the prince must let me know so that I can make adjustments, and I will do my landlord a little bit of friendship."

Wu Yun Baoyin stood up, put his right hand on his left chest, leaned over and said with a smile: "I heard that the emperor of the Central Plains is a descendant of heaven and man, and he is very wonderful. Xiao Wang deliberately learned the language of the Central Plains so as not to be rude in front of His Majesty. After all, he is still making a fool of himself. It's better to hear it for a long time." See, His Majesty Chen Guo is as handsome as a phoenix, worthy of the highest respect in the world. Your Majesty, after the banquet, would you like to see Xiao Wang demonstrate how to tame a horse?"

This Wuyun Baoyin looked about eighteen or nineteen years old, and his figure was already very tall, and the loose robes could hardly conceal his strong and vigorous muscle lines.The Central Plains Mandarin with a slight accent is smooth and thoughtful, and the accompanying pass seems superfluous.

As expected of the heir to the tribe who is about to rule the grassland, his speech and behavior are not as vulgar and barbaric as Yan Sui expected. When he finished speaking, his extremely bright eyes revealed sincerity and cunning at the same time.

He was like a cross between a lamb and a falcon.

Yan Sui thought it would be a wise choice to maintain peace with the Daiqin tribe for the time being.

"The prince is exhausted from the journey, so let's rest in the Tongfang Pavilion first. The horses will be handed over to the imperial horse supervisor for conditioning. If there is any discrepancy in the horse training skills, the imperial horse supervisor will send a special person to ask the prince for advice. Sun Shangshu, your Ministry of Rites must entertain the two parties well. Group, don't neglect."

Sun Ying, Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites, came out and answered yes.

Having said that, it is a tactful way to say that today's meeting is over. Li Zhen thanked the emperor, and Wu Yun Baoyin gave Yan Sui a weird salute before leaving, and smiled slyly: "Your Majesty, I look forward to your summoning again."

Yan Sui nodded politely, today is the 27th, and in three days' time, Xu Jia's birthday banquet will also invite two missions.

After the banquet, Yan Sui let the Minister of Rites into the imperial study, and said to Sun Ying: "These days, Sun Qing is in contact with the missions, and the Ministry of Households is discussing trade with Jingguo and Daiqin, entering and exiting the customs, etc., you can bring King Yong'an, Let him learn some diplomatic etiquette."

Sun Ying was a little embarrassed: "His Royal Highness Wang Yong'an is only ten years old, is it too early to be exposed to such a scene?"

"When Renzong was ten years old, he was able to take charge of his own affairs and deal with foreign countries coming to court. It's time for King Yong'an to inherit his father's demeanor." Yan Sui knew what he was struggling with, "Don't worry, Sun Qing. I will hand over King Yong'an to you for temporary discipline. , is both trust and entrustment, as long as His Highness is safe, it doesn’t matter if you are strict, I will not spoil you. If you teach King Yong’an well, you will benefit from your grandson’s family.”

Sun Ying bowed her head in silence for a moment and answered yes, then tentatively said: "Actually, His Majesty wants to train King Yong'an, and it may be more effective to choose a minister who is close to him to lead him... Mr. Xue from the Ministry of Officials is the in-law of Princess Yongjia..."

"Xue Shangshu's daughter married the concubine of General Cui, so it doesn't matter if she has a family relationship with Princess Yongjia." Yan Sui waved his hands calmly, "Not to mention employing people who are worthy. I think Sun Qing took good care of the etiquette department. The descendants are all successful, so Sun Qing doesn't have to be too modest."

Sun Ying raised her head, her slightly cloudy eyes rolled quickly, and said with a slight smile, "Since His Majesty will not give up, I will do my best to guide Yongan Wang Yi Er."

Yan Suixin said that after decades of ups and downs in the officialdom, he really lived like an old fox.Who in the imperial court did not know that the Ministry of Rites and officials were always at odds, and Sun Ying even recommended Xue Huai in front of the emperor, obviously trying to test the emperor's attitude by retreating.

The art of the emperor lies in checks and balances, Yan Sui usually let the officials at the bottom fight openly and covertly, mediate and make peace between the two sides at the right time, but at this time, he is not afraid to give Sun Ying some details and let him focus on dealing with Xue Huai.

The world is as black as crows, and there are very few officials who are not greedy. Many times, the emperor just turns a blind eye and closes his eyes.

But at the same time, the dragon's reverse scale cannot be touched, and it will kill you if you touch it.

What Xue Huai did in Jiangzhou has already touched the backs of Yan Sui.Must kill.

The things that should be explained are almost explained, Sun Ying was about to withdraw, Yan Sui stopped him and asked: "Back then, was there an expert who asserted to Gaozong that the regent Xu's family would have a queen?"

Sun Ying stood on the spot, stroked his gray beard and recalled: "Go back to Your Majesty, there is something to do."

Yan Sui pursed her lips: "Let's talk about it in detail."

"That was the beginning of Gaozong's accession to the throne. Not long after Renzong was born, his body was weak and he kept crying at night. The whole hospital was helpless, and Gaozong was very anxious. An expert rang the bell outside the palace gate to see him, saying that there was a cure. Gaozong At first I didn’t believe it, but the tall man sat in meditation outside the Meridian Gate, and the sky above the imperial city was raining, but with the blue sky above his head as the boundary, it was sunny and rainy. So Emperor Gaozong invited him into the palace. I don’t know what method the tall man used, Renzong's night crying disease was cured very quickly. The high-ranking man was not allowed to thank the official position, and left a prophecy before leaving that there would be a phoenix star falling in Xu's house in the east of the capital—the only king of Zhou in the east of the capital—oh, that is, the current regent The family name of the Wang family is Xu."

"It just so happened that Princess Zhou was pregnant with Liujia and was about to give birth. Emperor Gaozong said that if she really gave birth to a daughter, he would marry the young child and marry the two surnames." Sun Ying shook her head as she said, "There is no need for later things. The old minister said too much, the old Zhou prince only has one son as the regent, Feng Xing said it would become a joke—why did your majesty suddenly want to ask this question?"

Yan Sui said perfunctorily, just asking casually.

Old Shangshu didn't believe he was just asking casually, eight hundred minds were on the way out of the palace——

The envoy came to the court in June and made it clear that he was going to the regent's birthday banquet. The emperor must be afraid of such arrogance, and the theory of Feng Xing made him suspicious.

There is no place for two tigers on one mountain. Sooner or later, the emperor and the regent will break up. At that time, the fight between the snipe and the clam may benefit the fisherman. It is safer to put the treasure on King Yong'an-after all, he is the son of Renzong, a legitimate royal orthodox bloodline.

Sun Ying thought proudly, the emperor just praised the virtues of the grandsons of the grandson family, and the granddaughter of the family is just one year younger than King Yong'an. If there is a grandson-in-law who will be the emperor by then, the Sun family will be full of glory!

In this way, we must take good advantage of this opportunity to teach King Yongan!

Everyone in the court said that His Highness was naughty, and Sun Ying had never been taught directly, so he thought it was unbelievable. How difficult it is for a ten-year-old to discipline——

Sun Shangshu's optimistic attitude lasted until Yan Zhi cut off his long beard with a pair of scissors, and made tea for him with the dregs of the burning. At that time, he repeatedly sighed that he was not so lucky, and he couldn't afford this grandson-in-law!

After Yan Sui dealt with the mission, he explained to Sun Ying, sat in the imperial study and continued to revise the memorial.

Because he wanted to delegate power to Yan Sui, Xu Jiashi didn't go to court or ask about government affairs for the past few days, and rested at home.The person did not show up, but the memorials were sent one by one to the imperial study——

It's not a formal memorial.

This letter lists a certain number of times. Your majesty said that the minister was old on a certain day in a certain year, and on a certain day in a certain year in a certain year. At a certain time on a certain day in a certain year, your majesty said that the minister is old... I am afraid that I will not be born after this year.

Yan Sui laughed out loud as he read it, and upon closer inspection, he found that there was a row of slapstick characters at the back: So His Majesty must give Chen a unique birthday gift!

Unique, which is difficult to do.Yan Sui thought about what else he could give him besides longevity noodles, picked up another thicker memorial, and opened it to find a book of stories, still in Xu Jia's handwriting.

The protagonists of the story are aliased as Ah Qi and Ah Si, Ah Qi is a kitten, and Ah Si is a small--big dog. The content is about the past events between him and Xu Jia. There are no eclectic words, just The daily life is recorded like running water, the kitten drills the dog hole, the kitten fishes, the kitten gets sick, the kitten cries... The kitten and the big dog are always together.

Yan Sui closed the book, his face was burning hot, and his heart was beating wildly.

Well, the more you live, the more you will go back. The good emperor and the regent fell in love and talked like cats and dogs.Sure enough, he went to Ruyifang just to bring private goods!How could this kind of book be shown to the ancestors!No... If the ancestors really have spirits in the sky, they don't need to be burned to see them... I really want to be laughed at by my ancestors to death!

Yan Sui stuffed the story book into the bookshelf behind him, and silently wrote Wei Yang's first poem——

Xinghan left the palace and the moon came out of the wheel, and a branch of spring was picked up in Lantai... that is, I went to the banquet to answer the Longmen.

Xu Jiashi is so stupid, he knows how to give cats and dogs a pseudonym Ah Qi Ah Si, how could he not understand why he likes this poem?The old man only knows how to be jealous, can't he see that there are two of them in this poem?

Yansui, whose name is Qitai.Xu Lian, courtesy name Jiashi.

Wei Yang is talented and a pillar that can be used by the country. Yan Sui, the emperor, appreciates him.But as a private person of Yan Sui, I like this poem purely because two of the 56 impromptu characters belong to him and Xu Jiashi.

There are tens of millions of characters in the world, but their names can be turned into poems.Such a coincidence, Yan Sui knew it was reluctant, but at the same time regarded it as luck, so as to comfort himself in the hopeless and extravagant days——

See, we are meant to be.

Xu Jiashi may never understand such crazy thoughts.

He didn't know that from the fierce beginning of falling from the horse and being rescued, the poor little man from the cold palace opened the door of his heart, and began to look up to him that he thought he was greedy.

This feeling, dare not say but also can not be forgotten.It will not dissipate with time, it will not be obliterated in the confrontation, but it will become more and more deeply imprinted into the bones and blood, becoming an unforgivable crime of self-punishment.

However, one day, he was acquitted.

The best thing in the world is that there is a true response to the heart and mind, and the unrequited love of two people is a match made in heaven.

Perhaps, it was really destined that the Xu family would produce Feng Xing, and Xu Jiashi would be Yan Sui's queen who could not be revealed to the public, the only lover in his life.

Yan Sui suddenly thought of what else to give Xu Jiashi besides longevity noodles.

He asked the Supervisor of Rituals to find the empress's phoenix seal, wipe it clean himself, wrap it up, and prepared to hand it over to Xu Jiashi on the first day of June.

Yan Sui even thought that the emperor's birthday is the Longevity Day, the queen's birthday is the Qianqiu Festival, and the first day of June should be a holiday in the future...

When Yan Sui calmed down, he had already written Xu Jia's name countless times, stamped it with the queen's phoenix seal, and even wrote half of the edict that the beginning of June must be a festival.He hid all these things and suppressed the crazy thoughts in his head like a king.

No see in one day, like every three autumns.

Miss him so much...

What is Xu Jiashi doing now?

The author says:

The love brain is really on top.

Children's Day is indeed a holiday, but it is not suitable for the regent.

Regent: Nonsense!
