Ren Pingsheng

A big dream in the world, several times in life is cool.

Standing on the steps in front of the East Palace and looking up at the sky, Wanyan Kang suddenly felt an indescribable emotion.The sky in Zhongdu in late autumn is so blue that people will be enchanted, so clean, just looking at it so quietly, it seems to be able to travel through time and space.And himself, just as he had just passed through, was alone.It seems to have had everything, but in fact there is nothing, everything is given by others, in the end, all he has is himself.

Spreading out his palms, it was the first time that he looked at them so seriously and found out so clearly that these were just a pair of young hands, slender, well-proportioned, beautiful, and delicate, except for what he needed most—strength.Curling his fists into his sleeves, with his hands behind his back, Wanyan Kang raised his head again.

Tu Shanheng followed the prince and watched the little prince from afar for a long time, he knew Wanyan Kang.Wanyan Kang was eight years younger than him, but he studied in the palace with him.He is the prince's companion, and he was already by the prince's side before he ascended the throne today.The prince is kind and kind, he treats this cousin very well, Tu Danheng and Wanyan Kang are also familiar with each other.

But there is no deep friendship.The age difference is too big. It is not uncommon to be able to read well and make the same progress as people with a huge age difference. There are many child prodigies throughout the ages.When you are young, it may not be good to be old, and there are also a lot of people who don't know the world when they grow up.He is the prime minister's son, and his vision is a bit higher than that of ordinary high-ranking officials. He always feels that this little prince is too flimsy, too imaginary, and too cute to be real.Might as well wait until he's a little older.

Unexpectedly, this one was stuffed in before he grew up.Tu Shanheng also had to admire King Zhao's ability. The Holy Majesty was not suspicious for a day or two. In the Kingdom of Dajin, the emperor who had no doubts about his close relatives such as brothers, uncles and nephews was either too confident or too stupid.Although the current sage is not satisfactory, he still has the basic quality of skepticism.Under such circumstances, being able to send the prince to the East Palace, and not just for fun, King Zhao's ability can be seen.

Tu Shanheng frowned, he had a good impression of the prince.When he was born, the country was in full swing, and when he became an adult, everyone wanted to come and beat him up. He couldn't tolerate his country becoming like this.As the person directly responsible for the funder, he was very dissatisfied.

The crown prince is benevolent, but not as incompetent as the sage, he is an ideal candidate for a wise monarch in his heart, and he is willing to assist such a monarch.Tu Shanheng didn't want any surprises for the prince, so he was naturally very wary of Prince Zhao's residence.If King Zhao and his son's ambitions are too obvious, he doesn't mind doing something that won't make the prince's hands dirty.

The crown prince sighed lightly: "It can be cleared up a lot."

Tu Shanheng looked towards the past, and the late autumn wind rolled up the corners of the robe, and the edge of the robe rolled up in waves. From a distance, it seemed that he was about to blow people away.There is really nothing to say about the appearance of King Zhao's son, the father and son of the Holy Father are not half as good as him.The crease between the brows deepened, and Tu Shanheng said: "I feel that the son is more calm than when I saw it before."

Instinctively, Tu Shanheng couldn't tell the reason, but felt that this prince had become dangerous, and wanted to chop him up quietly.

The prince has strode forward.

The sound of the boots rubbing on the bluestone ground was very clear in Wanyan Kang's ears, and the benefits of internal strength are really many.Turning his head slowly, slowly nodding his head as a signal, Wanyan Kang turned his face away to look at the sky again.The prince stepped forward and asked: "Where are you and your people? Just let you look at the sky so stupidly? You are recovering from illness." In late autumn, the fur coat has already been put on, and the small body looks thin and tight.

Wanyan Kang said softly: "Brother, they are all dead."

The prince was surprised: "What? Who are you talking about? Oh, Wuye? Tesha?"

Wanyan Kang lowered his head, slid his hand down to touch the mirror tied around his waist, stroked the pattern on the back, and nodded: "En."

The crown prince and Tu Shanheng looked at each other, they all remembered these two people, and privately said that Wan Yankang was messing around.He was obviously a companion brought back along the way, and if he really has the ability to promote him to be an official, it can be regarded as raising some influence, but it is easy to accept.What about Wanyan Kang?I was really spoiled by teasing and calling him "Little Master Uncle" every day.But this also shows that these two people are in line with his wishes, and both of them are dead all of a sudden, no wonder he doesn't look right.

Wan Yankang said: "I was self-willed and took everyone out, but in the end..." He shook his head as he spoke, "It's such a beautiful day, it's heartbreaking. For thousands of years, this is the only thing that remains the same. Last year was also like this My God, this year is also the same day, but this year I don’t see people from last year. How much I want to fly up, and treat everything as a dream.”

The prince felt compassionate, stepped forward and held his shoulders, and was surprised that he had grown to be as tall as himself, and the shoulder bones were still protruding through the fur coat under his palm.Tightening his hand, he firmly held his shoulder, and pulled him over: "They've already gone, it's useless to think about it!"

Tu Shanheng sighed in his heart that the prince is really a benevolent king, but he persuaded him along the way: "It's better to take pity on the people in front of you when you are full of mountains and rivers and empty thoughts."

Wanyan Kang suddenly smiled and said, "You are right."

The prince felt relieved, took his hand and said, "I told Sixth Uncle to teach you how difficult the country's affairs are, and I won't play around with you like in the past. Come quickly, I have something to do for you." Tu Shanheng The worry in my heart is even worse: the prince is too real, do you really want to teach him?

***********************

Really teach.

Wanyan Kang has a title, but it is not the same thing as a real job. Only after receiving a real job can he truly enter the system of the country's operation.He knew the responsibilities of all official positions in the country, and these were easy to memorize, but the crown prince told him: "Shanghu violated the law of the previous king." The scope of responsibility of many official positions has changed from when it was first established.Some are mixed.

Wanyan Kang had to write down one by one.

On the first day, it ended in a state of "doing nothing".This time, Wanyan Kang did not rush to complain, or take the initiative to ask for help, but observed carefully.The efficiency of the Eastern Palace is even higher than that of the imperial court.He had watched the gossip in the court, and he would always choose the worst solution when it was dragged to the end.

The East Palace is not the case, the staff is streamlined, and the crown prince is more intelligent than his father.Anything that is confessed can always be better resolved than the court.It's not that there are no capable people in the court, but that sometimes, the best solution is not chosen by the court.

Wan Yankang thought, he came to the right place, or Wanyan Honglie stuffed him here, it was really a very discerning thing.After thinking about Yan Honglie, he felt conflicted again.Touching the bronze mirror, the fingertips slid across the patterns little by little, and my heart calmed down again.

Wanyan Kang sorted out what he saw and felt in a day, knowing the general structure of an empire, and personally participating in its operation are completely two concepts.

He also stood in the court and stood on duty, and followed many political affairs in front of the benefactors, watched their handling, and even slandered their stupidity.However, when you get started, you may not be better than them.For example, today, I saw the homework given to my son by the benefactor - how to relieve a disaster in a certain place.

What Wanyankang thought was how to distribute food nearby and use work as relief.The prince's first order was to order the soldiers and horses in the surrounding counties to be on alert.Under Wanyan Kang's slightly puzzled eyes, the prince told him: "Now that we are in a disaster situation, relief is of course needed, and we must prevent disasters from causing chaos." If you don't have enough to eat, you will rebel, that's for sure.Will the distribution of food cause unrest?Will the food truck be hijacked, or will the disaster relief turn into another disaster because of corruption by officials?

When no one says it's bad, we must take precautions before it happens.

【Nobody is stupider than anyone else. 】Wanyan Kang's feet finally landed on the ground.As soon as he stood on the ground, he discovered more problems.

For example, he deeply felt that Tu Danheng had deep hostility towards him.This is a very strange feeling, Tu Danheng always speaks to the prince, and he will deepen the effect for the prince when he expresses his opinion.Just like what the prince did when he comforted himself.This is also an attitude.

Wan Yankang was thinking about his career plan in the East Palace, and when he saw it one day, he knew that he was all floating in the sky before.What can be done now is to learn practical things regardless of good intentions or malice.It's a pity that no one gave him advice except the prince.Tu Shanheng was vaguely the leader of this group of people, and his attitude towards him would affect the attitude of the group of people towards him, and this influence was sometimes even easier to manifest than the prince's goodwill.

There is another person who is a more suitable mentor, but Wanyan Kang is not sure whether he can accept his way of doing things.

Wanyan Kang hesitated, but Wanyan Honglie would not let go of his guidance.Since you don't want to be a silly white sweet, you can't throw away sweet, only silly white is left, you have to throw them together, be careful.Wanyan Honglie personally brought a box to Wanyan Kang's study.

Wanyan Kang was looking at his homework for today - writing a document. Before Wanyan Honglie entered the courtyard, he heard a voice, paused, and finally put down the document.He looked up at the door and saw Wanyan Honglie coming in, so he got up.Seeing his thin appearance, Wanyan Honglie shook his head slightly, put the box in his hand on the table, opened it, and took out a palm-sized mirror: "Use this."

Wanyan Kang was taken aback.

Wanyan Honglie said: "How can there be a target mirror to ward off evil spirits? It is said that Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty had a poisonous mirror, and he would be happy in the end. I don't know if it is true or not, but it is a good omen." Saying this, he tied the small mirror to the end On Yan Kang's arm.

Wanyan Kang stared blankly for a long time before asking in a low voice: "Father, do you still want "Wu Mu's Suicide Note"?"

Wanyan Honglie said with a smile: "What? I went out to see it for a day, and when I came back, I still thought that father was not pragmatic?"

Wanyan Kang didn't speak.

Wanyan Honglie said: "Dajin is hiding soldiers from the people. The people are still those people, but their achievements are not as good as in the past. Probably we don't know how to use soldiers anymore."

"Zhao Kuo."

Wanyan Honglie smiled: "You are still so stubborn. I am very worried that you will perish. I am very pleased that you can do this. You tell me how to seize military power now? How to train soldiers? Give you some troops to play, that's okay Yes, I want to play, and I will be taken away the next day."

"Ah?" Wanyan Kang opened his mouth slightly, like a little goldfish.

Wanyan Honglie said: "I am the holy brother, you are more convenient than me. What is this?" Picking up the document, he saw his handwriting, read it carefully, and pointed out, "If you write like this, that is No way. Don’t always laugh at these clerks for being stupid, they will understand, look, this is the way to go, don’t write too bluntly, you are not writing this for big soldiers..."

Wanyan Kang was in a complicated mood by him, the silk sash was tied on his arm, the blood vessels were tied a little tight, and he could feel the frequency of blood flowing through the blood vessels.Reining in his mind, Wanyan Kang asked him for advice seriously.

After finishing speaking, Wanyan Honglie said: "You, you used to be careless, but now you are a little anxious, your heart is not in the right place."

Wanyan Kang was startled, thinking that he had noticed something.Wanyan Honglie said, "Do you think we are bad people if we want to rule the world? How can we do good things if we make ourselves bad people? I am replacing the world with a wise king, for the future of Dajin Kingdom. Now, I am also planning for the Dajin Kingdom!"

Wan Yankang looked at him tentatively, and whispered: "Big... wise if you are stupid?"

Wanyan Honglie scolded with a smile: "So what if you say that traitors are loyal? In fact, regardless of loyalty and traitors, they are just coffins behind their backs. When they are born, they are all outstanding people, and they must be generous. You can compare goods! Besides, there are so many people who want to stand out in front of the king, and there will always be others who come to him to compare."

Wanyan Kang's eyes and mouth are all round - how could I ignore this?

Wanyan Honglie smiled: "Understood?"

Wanyan Kang nodded.

Wanyan Kang's performance made Wanyan Honglie and his father and son more and more at ease.It seemed that it was really because both of his playmates passed away that made him mature all of a sudden, and he was really much more stable than before.Tu Shanheng looked at him more and more suspiciously - really wanted to burn it.

The prince laughed at him for being too suspicious: "Hudu has always been a good boy who is warm-hearted and soft-hearted, you think too much." Tu Shanheng said: "I used to be a good boy, but I may not be a good person when I grow up." The prince said: "Beside you and me, why worry? You are wary of others, how can others treat you with sincerity?" Tu Shanheng just said nothing, the prince said: "Let's make a bet, if I win, you can't do this anymore .”

Tu Shanheng said, "Okay."
