To The Land of Nevernight

The so-called sex is greedy and ruthless, and party jackals are cruel.

Before Tang Shen knew it, he was drawn into a party by Yu Chaosheng, named Tang Party.It has to be said that Yu Chaosheng's sense of smell is very keen, no less than his teacher Xu Wei.Wang Xiao and Mei Shengze went to the Yinyin Division this time, but on the surface they had nothing to do with Tang Shen. They belonged to the Yinyin Division, and their immediate boss should be Qin Sicai.

But just because of the unusual relationship between these two people and Tang Shen, Yu Chaosheng realized that the emperor sent these two people to Youzhou not to give Qin Si a hand, but to arrange talents for Tang Shen.

At this moment, Wang Xiao and Mei Shengze are in Youzhou. While they are responsible for the errands of the Ministry of Yinyin, they are busy managing the silver deeds every day.At the same time, he had to contact the spies sent to Liao in private.

Surveillance of the Liao State is no small matter.

As soon as the two arrived in Youzhou, they received information from Qiao Jiu that the emperor of the Liao Kingdom had a stroke and fell ill, and the second prince of the Liao Kingdom took the opportunity to attack.Wang Xiao and Mei Shengze appear to be of the same official rank, but it is Wang Xiao who really plays the leading role.He acted decisively and asked Qiao Jiu to take this opportunity to help Xiao Zhen infiltrate the second prince's officials to obtain more information.

In the next month, a steady stream of information came from the Liao Kingdom.

Ordinary information was handled directly by Wang Xiao, Mei Shengze and the others. Only when it came to important matters, they would secretly send it to Shengjing for Tang Shen and Su Wenyun to make a decision.

After such a trip, January time passed by in a hurry, and it was October again.

On the seventh day of October in the 31st year of Kaiping, it was Zhao Fu's birthday.In previous years, he would hold a grand birthday banquet, and officials from all over the 36 prefectures gave birthday gifts several months in advance.This year is different.Zhao Fu suddenly started eating fast and chanting Buddha. At the beginning of September, he issued a decree in the morning court, which was "Thinking of Oneself Edict".

"In the 31 years since I came to the throne, I did not seek meritorious deeds, but I sought no faults. However, the water of the Yellow River floods every year, and the people on both sides of the strait are destitute. The lost land has not been recovered, so why should I have a family? I am the son of heaven, the incarnation of a real dragon, how can I sleep peacefully? "

"...I have decided that this year's birthday will no longer be arranged arbitrarily, and all places will save money, which makes me very happy."

Zhao Fu's behavior has never been guessed by others. He suddenly didn't want to hold a birthday banquet, and all the ceremonial staff who had been preparing for more than half a year were stunned.But this is not a big deal. In previous years, the seventh day of October was the emperor's birthday. Who could remember that the day before was Wang Qin's birthday.

This time even Zhao Fu remembered it. In the Chuigong Palace, he smiled and said, "Zifeng will be thirty next year. I remember today is your birthday?"

Zhao Fu has always mentioned this recently, he likes to mention age.

Ordinarily, the emperor was old, and he always tabooed others from bringing up the topic of longevity.Even ordinary old people often don't like to talk about this.But Zhao Fu is different, the more he cultivates immortality and recites Buddhism, the more he wants to talk.Tang Shen, who has just reached the crown, is not willing to talk about it, Wang Qin, Su Wenyun, including the left minister Ji Wengji, the right minister Wang Quan, these powerful officials in the court were all talked about by Zhao Fu.

Wang Qin: "Return to Your Majesty, today is my birthday."

Zhao Fu thought for a while, "It's natural to have a good birthday."

Immediately, Wang Qin was still working in the household department and did not go to the government office, so the rewards from Zhao Fu came in one after another and were sent to the Shangshu Mansion.But after Wang Qin received the decree, he left Shangshu Mansion and went to Fu Wei's mansion.Tang Shen and Fu Wei had been waiting there for a long time, waiting to hold a birthday banquet for Wang Qin.

The three teachers and students toasted and drank together, only to see that the cups were staggered under the moon, the breeze was coming, and it suddenly seemed like a painting and calligraphy.

Fu Wei has been repairing a set of books in recent years, and the repairs have already come to an end last month.But five years later, he was no longer the great Confucianist Fu Xiru that Tang Shen saw back then, he had a lot of gray hair on his temples.

Fu Wei said with emotion: "Time is not forgiving, look at my white hair, last year I was able to cover it up, but this year somehow, it's like bamboo shoots springing up after a rain, and they all popped up. Alas, the teacher is already old , Seeing that you two are still in their prime, I really burst into tears. Wen Shu, bring me a handkerchief."

Wen Shutongzi now follows Fu Wei every day, taking care of him in real time.

After hearing Fu Wei's words, Wen Shutong muttered, "You didn't shed tears again", but he still took out a handkerchief from his sleeve and handed it to Fu Wei.

Fu Wei pretended to be frustrated, and after wiping away tears that didn't exist, he raised his head and looked at the two disciples.

Tang Shen didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Mr. why did you say this suddenly? In my heart, Mr. is still the same as before, but he is full of energy and has no vicissitudes."

Fu Wei: "What's the matter, the emperor is only allowed to say that others are getting old every day, and I'm not allowed to say it?"

It was only then that Tang Shen realized that Fu Wei was being called by Zhao Fu every day to say "You are old, Ai Qing", and it happened to him and Wang Qin.Tang Shen was even more helpless.

Zhao Fu has been calling officials over recently, concerned about their age, Tang Shen also knows this.But Tang Shen was too young, so Zhao Fu never called him.Even Su Wenyun had been called out several times, Tang Shen was the only official in power and the emperor's confidant who did not receive this honor.Sometimes Tang Shen even felt that he was forgotten by Zhao Fu, but then Zhao Fu would call him into the palace, care about him a few words, and dispel his doubts.

Tang Shen didn't have such an honor, so Fu Wei gave him this luck face to face.

The teacher and the student chatted about things, and Fu Wei talked about a good word that appeared in the literary world recently.

"This word was written by a general, but that general has never been able to read two big characters." Fu Wei made a fool of himself, and he smiled meaningfully: "Does Jing know what's going on?" Before Tang Shen could speak, he couldn't wait to reveal the answer: "The general is a martial artist who doesn't know how to write, but it is rumored that his new wife is a well-known talented woman in the local area."

Tang Shen cooperated with Fu Wei, and deliberately flattered him: "Is there another matter?"

Fu Wei: "The 'Shen Jiang' wrote a lot of good poems and words. It just so happens that his latest works are available in the master's house. But where are they placed..." Turning his head, Fu Wei asked: "Little Little boy, where did you go?"

Wen Shutong said innocently: "Sir, the book collection is all done by Fuqin boy, how would I know!"

Fu Wei: "There are many reasons for a boy. If you want you to look for books, you can look for books. So, Jing Ze, you can go with him and help this ignorant boy find that book of poems?"

Tang Shen was taken aback for a moment, he glanced at Fu Wei, got up and said, "Okay."

Then, Tang Shen and Wen Shutong went to Fu Wei's Diao Chong study.

For a while, only Fu Wei and Wang Qin were left in the flower hall.

When Tang Shen and Fu Wei were chatting just now, Wang Qin had been drinking and listening to them.He smiled lightly, and he didn't need to say a few words, as if he just listened like this.Now that Tang Shen went to look for books, Fu Wei waved his chopsticks in front of his proud student, Wang Qin raised his eyes and looked at his husband.

"Sir, why did you deliberately support Jingze?"

Fu Wei said in a rough voice: "When did I dismiss him, don't talk nonsense."

Wang Qin smiled: "You really don't know the scene?"

Fu Wei: "Forget it, you've all grown up and your wings are stiff, so you can't help yourself, sir." After the joke was finished, Fu Wei's face suddenly darkened, he put down his chopsticks, and looked at his student.

24 years ago, Fu Wei traveled to the south of the Yangtze River and occasionally passed by Jinling.

At that time, Fu Wei was already one of the famous Four Confucianists in the world, so when he arrived at the Jinling Mansion, the Langya Wang family sent an invitation to Fu Wei, inviting this great Confucian into the mansion and hosting a banquet.

Fu Wei was also born in a wealthy family, but since his ancestors, their family has been sparsely populated, and their family has been in decline. It is not as good as it used to be, but the emaciated camel is bigger than a horse. It is quite famous in Beizhili. Of course it can't be compared.Fu Wei is the pillar of the family, he was invited by the Langya Wang family, of course he was also very pleasantly surprised, he went to the banquet after some preparations.

A family in the south of the Yangtze River, with small bridges and flowing water, and exquisite gardens.

After the banquet, Fu Wei was received by someone to wander around in the garden to enjoy the scenery. The two were talking and laughing when they saw an exquisite boy dressed in gold and jade in the garden, quietly gazing at a flower.Fu Wei looked at the side for a long time, and the boy looked at it for a long time.

Fu Wei asked curiously, "What are you looking at?"

The boy looked up at him, then looked at his uncle next to him, then bowed obediently and politely, and said, "I'm looking at a flower."

Fu Wei: "Why do you want to look at a flower for so long?"

Boy: "I just stared at it for a while, but then I found that the guest was looking at me. I look at the flowers, and the guest looks at me, maybe it's like looking at a painting. How can I destroy your elegance. So guest, what are you looking at? ?" After speaking, he raised his black and clear eyes and looked at Fu Wei curiously.

Fu Wei was shocked at once, when he heard that this boy was Wang Qin, the son of the Langya Wang family, he decided to accept him as a student.At first it was difficult for the Wang family, so Fu Wei lived in Jinling for a long time. In the end, it was Wang Qin himself who agreed, so he became a disciple of Fu Xiru.

Wang Qin: "I see flowers as picturesque, and my husband sees me as picturesque. This is probably what the second uncle always said about fate."

Therefore, Wang Qin worshiped under Fu Wei's family.

"Unexpectedly, 24 years have passed in a blink of an eye." Fu Wei said with emotion, "Hey, why am I still bringing up these old things?"

Wang Qin looked up at his husband.

Of course he still remembers when he was five years old, after all, he is very famous for his photographic memory.But even though he was a well-known child prodigy at that time, it has to be said that his behavior style is a bit out of the ordinary in today's eyes.Wang Qin never liked to mention his past events. For example, after he joined Fu Wei's family, he once wrote a thousand big characters a day when he was learning to write, and fell asleep from exhaustion.When I woke up, I found that my face was covered with ink, and I was completely out of style.

Wang Qin kindly reminded: "Junior brother will be back soon."

Fu Wei paused, and after a while, he looked at Wang Qin with a solemn and worried tone: "A few days ago, Jing Ze gave me a painting. The painting was very vivid, but it made me worry. Feng...what exactly does your junior brother want to do?"

Wang Qin was stunned suddenly, as if he had guessed something, he asked, "What painting?"

Fu Wei was silent, and said: "It's just a painting of flowers and birds. It is a painting of a hundred birds contending, and a group of flowers. Among the birds, there is a phoenix hovering in the sky, and among the flowers, there is a peony standing proudly. The painting is a good one. , is the handiwork of Lin Jiude, an idiotic painter in Shu, I haven’t seen him for more than ten years, and his painting skills are even more outstanding.”

Wang Qin frowned.

Fu Wei knew that he had already understood what he meant: "The painting of a hundred birds and fragrant flowers is very common, but there was also a painting like this in the period of the late emperor... At that time, it was painted by the former prince." Fu Wei sighed, Said: "Back then, I was the calligraphy and painting teacher of the first prince. I gave him a few pointers, and I had some teacher-student friendship."

Fu Wei has recharged his energy all these years, never fighting or grabbing, never showing his edge.

But more than ten years ago, he was also the right minister in charge of the court.

Someone else might not be able to see Tang Shen's thoughts, but Fu Wei did.He let out a long sigh: "I thought he wouldn't do anything for Liang Bowen, or that many years had passed, and there was no point in doing anything. But who would have thought, he would always remember. How can he be so ignorant and stupid!" He scolded so much, but Fu Wei praised him very much. He stroked his beard, "But your little brother's behavior is extremely dangerous. Do you know what he is going to do? Do you still want to give that old guy Zhong Taisheng Can't reverse the case?"

"I don't know."

Fu Wei was stunned, and after a long time he said in shock: "You don't know?!"

Wang Qin looked at him and asked back, "Why do you think, sir, that I must know what my junior brother wants to do and what he is doing?"

Fu Wei stood up and took a few steps, turned around, still not believing: "How could you not know?"

Could you, Wang Zifeng, not know?

With your big sesame eyes, can you allow your little junior brother to do things you don't know?

Wang Qin raised the wine cup and drank it all in one gulp.Maybe he drank too much, he became less restrained and more vigorous, mixed with the smell of alcohol, dazzling like a clear and bright moon.He smiled unpretentiously: "What do I want to know about it?"

Fu Wei: "Huh?"

"As long as I know that whatever he wants to do, I will take care of him, clear up the twists and turns for him in the future, and clear up the troubles behind him. That's it, isn't it good?"

Fu Wei was stunned, and he sat down on the stool: "You really care about your junior brother!"

Wang Qin smiled lightly.

When Fu Wei asked him about the painting today, he was not only asking him what Tang Shen wanted to do, but also testing his thoughts on Tang Shen.Why doesn't he know?It's not like pushing the boat with the current, and...

So what the hell!

After a long time, Wang Qin said with emotion: "I really drank too much today!"
