Self-cultivation after the cannon fodder

In the Hanlin Academy, several cabinet elders and two ministers from the Ministry of Households and the Ministry of Military Affairs were arguing endlessly.

The idea of ​​a decisive battle with foreign enemies seems to them too aggressive, and it is safer to temporarily negotiate peace talks and give the country time to recuperate.

Zong Qihao: "I have no intention of going to war now, but if King Qin gets an opportunity, he must not let it go."

Under the murderous eyes of Shangshu of the Ministry of Finance, Shangshu of the Ministry of War weighed the pros and cons: "There will be no chance, it is more important to rest and recuperate." Anyway, defense is the main thing now, and the battlefield is so far away, Zong Qihao is just talking.

It is true that there is still some time before King Qin goes deep into the enemy's army. Seeing that everyone is not very supportive of his decision, Zong Qihao is not in a hurry, but asks to prepare for the battle first.Being prepared, the few courtiers present had no objections.

After the charter is roughly finalized, we can talk about some relatively easy topics.

Hubu Shangshu had a very good impression of Xiao Yiming, and every time he recorded it in detail, he was very friendly to a busy person like him, but now he found that it was not Xiao Yiming who was taking notes, and felt a little pity.

Today's event, if you can listen to the record from the side, it will be of great benefit to the newcomers, especially for such long-term planned military events, which are not often available.

The Minister of the Household Department asked the bachelor: "Why didn't you see Mr. Xiao Xiao today? Could it be that he was hidden by Mr. Bachelor, so that he couldn't catch up?"

"No, he's in the library." The bachelor stroked his beard and sighed secretly.

Xiao Yiming's inability to come was ordered by Zong Qihao, and it was a pity for the bachelor to lose such an opportunity.

Minister of the Ministry of War joked: "The queen is reading over there, is Master Xiao going to be a book boy?"

The bachelor couldn't talk about his suffering, so he could only laugh and say, "Isn't he thinking about the possibility of peace talks? I asked him to find some related books to do his homework, so he can use them in the future."

"I'm not in a hurry for this homework. When can't I do it?"

"It's fine to just sit here, this arrangement is not acceptable."

Several courtiers present shook their heads, the bachelor's arrangement put the cart before the horse, let's not mention Zhu Sining's reputation for the time being, Xiao Yiming would not dare to neglect him when he went to the library, it was a waste of time.

The number one scholar has always been the focus of training, and he will not be admitted to the cabinet unless he is in the Hanlin Academy. Xiao Yiming has to accumulate enough experience here to have the possibility of further promotion.

For now, everyone is optimistic about this young man.

The bachelor still wanted to say something nice to Xiao Yiming: "Because I thought that the queen was over there in the library, and maybe I needed someone to explain my doubts, Master Xiao took the initiative to ask for help."

Zong Qihao only asked the bachelor to find other work for Xiao Yiming, and don't let him participate in the recording. Unexpectedly, Xiao Yiming went to the library on his own initiative.

His face suddenly sank.

"Your Majesty?" Several officials felt flustered.

Seeing Zhu Sining slowly approaching from the door step by step from a distance, Zong Qihao got up: "Let's come here first, and I will ask a few adults to make a charter and hand it in later. Let me say it again, peace talks are impossible Yes, do your best to prepare for the battle, don't try to fool you."

Fortunately, Zhu Si Ning came back first, otherwise he would have to rush over to pick him up.

Zhu Sining's lips were pale, his forehead was covered with sweat, and his whole body was crumbling.

There were no miscellaneous people in the Imperial Academy, and there was no one around Zhu Sining, and no one helped to inform him. Zong Qihao didn't know how long he had been walking like this, so he quickly reached out to support him.

"Keep your hands away, don't let you touch them." Zhu Sining dodged his hands. He didn't pay attention several times before and let Zong Qihao's hands touch him. Now the red blood bar has dropped to 60.00%. Eight, the purple task Bar only went to 50.00% three.

Zong Qihao only thought that Zhu Sining was uncomfortable, and replied softly: "Okay, I won't touch you."

Zhu Sining leaned against the wall and gasped for breath, Zong Qihao was very worried: "A-Ning? Are you okay?"

"It's okay." Zhu Sining closed his eyes tightly and forced himself to calm down.

Relevant plots and some memories that don't seem to belong to him came in a mess, and the leg injury happened inexplicably at this time, which made Zhu Sining feel anxious.

There are still many important court officials in the house, even though they are not those gossips in the market, but they have been lingering here, it is inevitable that they will see a joke.

Zong Qihao turned sideways to block Zhu Sining's figure, and glanced at Jiang Wei who had been waiting outside, Jiang Wei immediately understood, turned and entered the room.

Immediately, all the windows inside were closed, Jiang Wei walked out from the inside, took the last door behind him, and waved his whisk, calmly.

Zhu Sining blinked: "What are you doing?"

He looked at Zong Qihao, Jiang Wei did what Zong Qihao wanted, and this was the one who started it.

Zong Qihao was very calm: "We will leave after you get better, don't worry."

"Where are the people inside?" Zhu Sining looked at the airtight room and suddenly wanted to laugh.

"Of course I will wait."

Zhu Sining could no longer hold back his smile: "Forget it, this place has become 300 taels of silver, and they want to know what's going on."

Wiping the fine sweat off Zhu Sining's head, Zong Qihao inadvertently swept across Zhu Sining's leg.

Zhu Sining warned: "If you look at it again, you'd better ask the reason politely."

"Can I ask?"

"Of course, but I can also refuse to answer."

"Then I don't want it anymore. It would be embarrassing to be rejected in front of so many people."

Zong Qihao was just asking casually, he didn't expect that Zhu Sining would let go so quickly, and he didn't feel disappointed when he was rejected.

Zhu Sining pointed to the closed doors and windows behind Zong Qihao: "You locked so many people inside, so you probably wonder why."

Zong Qihao shook his head slightly, and asked with a smile: "Then your legs are better?"

Zhu Sining tried to move a little bit: "It still hurts."

"Then what should we do?" Zong Qihao asked in a drawn-out tone, "Do you want to wait until you feel better before leaving?"

"The adults will be suffocated to death, I don't want to be accused of suffocating court officials with curiosity." Zhu Sining said dissatisfied, "Do you think it's fun and want to watch a good show?"

These doors and windows are not locked and can be pushed open from the inside.But so far, no sound has come out from inside.

Sure enough, he is the pillar of the country, that is, he can hold his breath.

Zhu Sining didn't want to stay any longer, half bent over and rubbed his knees: "I think it's better to go quickly."

"Yes."

After Zong Qihao finished speaking, he suddenly hugged Zhu Sining's waist, supported him with one hand, and supported Zhu Sining's neck with the other hand, let him lie on his shoulders, and took a big stride go out.

Zhu Sining was stunned for a moment, and patted Zong Qihao's back several times: "You are holding the baby!"

"Take it easy, it's about to fall." Zong Qihao's chest vibrated, with a laughing voice, "This posture is only convenient, just hold on, Jiaofangdian will be here soon."

"It's so embarrassing, I don't want to see anyone anymore." Zhu Sining lowered his head, leaning against Zong Qihao's shoulder, the bright red palace wall that was quickly retreating from the corner of his eyes.

Zong Qihao gradually slowed down: "My hands are a little sore, please don't move around."

I wish Si Ning to live like a dead fish without love: "I know that I am heavy, so I don't need you to remind me."

Anyway, he is also a man, Zong Qihao ran so fast just now, it's no wonder he wasn't tired.

Zong Qihao smiled, did not reply, and did not speed up.

The wind that was still in my ears just now stopped, but there was still a faint fragrance of grass and trees in my nose.In the afterglow of the setting sun, the shadows of the two people were close together, forming an irregular shape.

Hearing Zong Qihao's heavy breathing, Zhu Sining turned his head and saw a small garden with stone chairs in front, and tapped Zong Qihao: "Find a place to sit in front."

"Okay." Zong Qihao's voice was hoarse.

"Stop talking, you're tired, aren't you?"

"will not."

"You're so stubborn, you've already walked half of the palace." It's not a long way from the front court to the rear palace.

"No, there is absolutely no half palace," Zong Qihao waited for Jiang Wei to wipe the stone chair clean before carefully putting down Zhu Sining, "If it is really half a palace, I will throw you into the Imperial Academy."

Zong Qihao stopped on purpose before continuing: "Because I can't walk, so I have no choice but to stop."

"Why are you so heartless?" Zhu Sining grabbed Zong Qihao's shoulder and refused to get off, "You know that my leg is hurt, but you still don't help me."

Zong Qihao almost couldn't catch his breath: "...Don't strangle your neck."

The two of them were only one step away from the stone chair, but they couldn't sit on it no matter what.

Jiang Wei, who had cleaned the stone chair long ago, shook his whisk, and led the other palace people to turn their heads silently, pretending not to see it.

Loosening the restraint on Zong Qihao's neck, Zhu Sining grabbed Zong Qihao's collar instead: "Hurry up and promise, you will help me next time."

If it weren't for Zong Qihao, he might have collapsed in the Imperial Academy just now.Zong Qihao still thinks he is too heavy now, he is simply bullying the disabled.

He was in the capital, and in this imperial palace, he had very few acquaintances, and Zong Qihao was definitely the person he trusted the most.

Zhu Sining talked nonsense, Zong Qihao was really unsteady this time, he couldn't even point his feet in the direction of the stone chair: "You let go first..."

Zhu Sining's feet were not easy to touch with force, Zong Qihao couldn't shake Zhu Sining away with all his strength, turned around a few times, and completely surrendered: "I will help me, even if I run around the palace with you in my arms, I will It will be all right."

Zhu Sining still had doubts: "Why did you suddenly call yourself 'I'?"

"A'Ning...you let go first, okay..." Zong Qihao was really dying, and now he was holding his breath.

"Sorry, I forgot." Zhu Sining let go of his hand and unconsciously leaned against Zong Qihao's ear, "But it's unnecessary to run around the palace, it's too tiring."

Before he finished speaking, Zong Qihao felt itchy in his ears, his feet were soft, and his center of gravity was unstable.

Zhu Sining's feet were sore and weak, and when he sensed the tilt, he hurriedly grabbed Zong Qihao and pulled him off.

Both of them fell on the grass.

"A-Ning..." Zong Qihao felt like his heart was about to jump out, and he only had time to rest his hands on the back of Zhu Sining's head to prevent him from being smashed by the small stones in the grass.

"Yes...I'm sorry..." Zhu Sining passively watched Zong Qihao zoom in before his eyes, and noticed the fear in his eyes, "I...I..."

Zong Qihao had a slight pain on the back of his hand, which should have been scratched by a small stone.If it wasn't for Zhu Sining who suddenly whispered in his ear, he wouldn't be so caught off guard.

Zong Qihao gritted his teeth bitterly: "Learn a lesson, you can't make such trouble in the future."

Seeing the palace people catching up not far away, Zhu Sining hurriedly said: "I won't dare in the future."

He didn't want to be supported by the palace servants, his lower body was weak, so he had to use his upper body to hit Zong Qihao again.

Zong Qihao didn't let go of his hand, he lowered his head slightly to help Zhu Sining up, and he had to be careful not to press Zhu Sining's legs with his lower body, he didn't pay attention to Zhu Sining's movements, he just felt something soft suddenly on his side jaw It was printed.

The aroma of grass and trees in the nose becomes more intense.

The palace servants who were still a few steps away from the two looked at Jiang Wei—are they going up or not?

Jiang Wei swept his whisk silently to stop their footsteps. The empress probably couldn't part for a while, and he never thought that there would be someone who could help.

I guess Zong Qihao would think that Zong Qihao would not wink at him when he turned around to help, and it was thankless, so there is no need for it.

Zong Qihao froze all over, he didn't dare to blink, his Adam's apple moved, but he still didn't make a sound after all.

Although it was just an accident and it came unexpectedly, it still made him very excited and he didn't dare to destroy it easily.

Zhu Sining was also taken aback for a moment, and hurriedly separated from Zong Qihao: "Accident, this is just an accident."

"I know." Zong Qihao smiled, helped Zhu Sining up, and led him to the stone chair, "Of course it was an accident."

He looked natural, not at all uncomfortable.

Zhu Sining turned his head slightly, not looking at him.

Remembering that Zong Qihao still had a question that he didn't answer, but he forgot what he asked, Zhu Sining had to find a new topic: "I think you are also very heavy, just now..."

Suddenly feeling that this topic was a bit strange, Zhu Sining immediately gave up.

Zong Qihao smiled, understanding what he meant: "Well, I will never think too much of you in the future."

"That's not what it means!" Zhu Sining didn't think about the question just now, so he said, "I think I've rested and can go back."

"it is good."

Zong Qihao would not remind him, I wish Si Ning could accept it so ignorantly.

He squatted down halfway, trying to hug Zhu Sining again.

"Wait a minute, don't touch your hands." Just now, Zhu Sining paid a lot of attention to prevent Zong Qihao from making illegal actions again.

For such a distance, the red blood bar has been consumed unprecedentedly by 60.00%, leaving only [-]%.

Zhu Sining felt his heart ache.

"I can't touch my hands and I have to find a way to bring you back." Zong Qihao didn't see any annoyance, but smiled instead, "Are you deliberately embarrassing me?"
