Chapter 66

Chang'an City

Tai Chi Palace

The courtyard of the bodyguard's office covers a large area, accounting for almost one sixth of the Tai Chi palace. This is a single large courtyard, close to the prince's east palace. The emperor has not yet set up a prince, so the East Palace is still idle. The courtyard of the bodyguard's office is divided into two parts. In front is the place where the bodyguards live and the Yamen of the bodyguard's office. Behind is the love Yamen. There is no plaque. People who don't know can't see the difference between here and the front yard.

Instead of people with inside information, they can't see the subtle difference in the flying fish robe between the Qing Ya bodyguard and the Da Nei bodyguard.

There is a small garden in the backyard. The most eye-catching is the rockery engraved with four big red characters of heavenly works. It is said that this stone was transported from the south of the Yangtze River. It costs human and material resources. It is estimated that it can arm 2000 people to the teeth. Originally, this big stone should be placed in the imperial garden, but the former Emperor didn't like the shape of the stone, so he moved it to the backyard of the bodyguard.

One of the reasons why this stone is eye-catching is that it is very large and has a strange shape. It looks like a statue of a lying cow from a distance.

Second, there is always a huge white haidongqing resting on the head of the lying cow.

There are 360 feather insects in the world, and the most handsome one is haidongqing.

This was a gift personally given to the emperor of the great Sui Dynasty when mengge, the emperor of the Mongolian Yuan Empire, met with Yang Yi, the emperor of the great Sui Dynasty, in the northwest. After that meeting with mengge, his Majesty the emperor of the great Sui Dynasty once said that he had two gains on his trip. The first is to open trade in the border city of Fangu, so that the herdsmen of Mengyuan and the people of the great Sui Dynasty can trade. The second is to get haidongqing, who is known as the most handsome feather worm.

This white Haidong green foot is half a person tall. If its wings are opened, it is amazing. It can easily take a calf into the air. It is ferocious and frightening.

It's just a pity that although the emperor of the Sui Dynasty liked haidongqing, he didn't often come to see it. If the Raptor was not given to him by the sweat of the Mongolian Yuan Empire, but presented by the people of the great Sui Dynasty, I'm afraid the treatment would be very different.

This haidongqing has always been raised by Hou Wenji.

The former is more difficult than the latter. Although it is difficult to obtain a mastiff that is fierce enough to crack wild wolves, it is not too rare after all.

Hou Wenji trained this haidongqing, which really took a lot of effort.

The division of work in the Qing government is fine, and Hou Wenji doesn't have to worry about everything. So as soon as he was free, he took haidongqing out to hunt. As soon as he went, it was three or five days.

When he has nothing to do, Hou Wenji also likes to put some goats, rabbits and other things in the backyard of Qingya to let the emperor give haidongqing named loyal dog to kill. A haidongqing was given the name of a handmaid dog, which is self-evident.

But haidongqing's temper is also arrogant. It doesn't care about ordinary prey at all.

Therefore, when Zhuo Buyi took pig Xiaohua into the backyard of Qingya, haidongqing immediately cheered up. If Hou Wenji hadn't stopped it, he would have dared to come down and have a vicious fight with pig Xiaohua. On the way back to the imperial capital, the pig Xiaohua, who always seemed a little lost, also came to the spirit at the moment of seeing the handmaid dog. These two strong guys in nature are not pleasing to anyone.

But obviously, if you really want to fight, pig floret will suffer.

"This pig is good."

When Hou Wenji saw the little pig flower, he couldn't help but be stunned. Then he smiled and said, "such a big wild boar must be king in the mountains and forests, but you just brought it to the imperial capital, so you're not afraid to suffocate. It has lost its due spirit and wildness?"

Zhuo Buyi went to Hou Wenji, stopped, pointed to the small forest not far away, and said to pig Xiaohua, "the rocks are the bird's territory, and the forest is your territory. Although it's not big, it's barely enough for you to settle down. Later, I invited your majesty to live in the beast garden of the imperial garden, and you'll still be the overlord."

He said it seriously, as if pig Xiaohua could really understand it.

In fact, pig Xiaohua does have some grievances. After a few grunts, she walks into the garden with a radius of only 100 meters, lies down and falls asleep.

"What can I gain from going out of Beijing?"

Hou Wenji asked.

Zhuo Buyi nuzui the little pig flower.

Hou Wen laughed very freely.

"The boy is arranged at the post station?"

He asked again.

Zhuo Buyi shook his head and said, "no, he has to wait for several of his friends to enter the city. He lives in the town outside the city. It is estimated that he will come in three or five days. I left a sign of Qing Ya for him. There will be no difficulty when he enters the city."

He paused, looked at Hou Wenji and asked, "Gao Tianbao is dead. There is a seat for thousands of families. I want to fill in a person."

"OK"

Hou Wen nodded his head and didn't even ask who the man was.

"My righteous sister, it's rare to see... She's the same type as me."

Zhuo Buyi said seriously.

"A woman a pig."

Hou Wenji smiled and said, "you have gained a lot in your business."

"More than..."

Zhuo Buyi looked at the Hai Dongqing on the rockery and said, "that little scout of fan gubian army is a material that can be made. So I bet on him. If there is no accident, he can emerge in one year and barely enter the court in three years. We can enter the court in five years... What we love yamen seem to lack is the allies in the court."

"Qing ya never needs to be friends with courtiers."

Hou Wenji turned to Zhuo Buyi and said solemnly, "because your majesty doesn't allow it."

"I know."

Zhuo Buyi said with a flicker in her eyes, "but this guy does have some meaning. Ten years later... Maybe he is the second Luo Yao."

Hou Wenji's face changed slightly, then nodded and said, "then I'll remember to remind your majesty that the soldier over there has arrived in the imperial capital. Tell the boy to be ready... As long as he can face the saint, he will have a good future. Let's push him up now, no matter whether he climbs higher or falls to death in the future."

Zhuo Buyi nodded and said nothing.

Military Department

I don't know why, since Yu Donglai, the Minister of the Ministry of war, was demoted to be a servant. This great man who seems to be punished but still has a very important position in the imperial court likes to shut himself in the study of the military Yamen. The thick black curtains in the study were closed day and night.

So whoever walks into this study will have a sense of depression.

Yu Donglai, who personally sent out seven heads a while ago, is more and more silent these days, and his face is gloomy on weekdays. Military officials, whether old or new, did not even dare to laugh in front of Yu Donglai. Everyone felt that Lord Yu was really unhappy this time, but he didn't know he was really acting.

After all, sending out seven heads will offend many people. Although Yu Donglai is not afraid, he doesn't want to cause unnecessary trouble. You know, who is an official in the imperial capital has no background behind him?

Looking at the thin sheets of paper on the table, Yu Donglai frowned slightly.

On these pieces of paper, it is clearly written what Fang Xie has done in fan Gu in the past three years. Although it is not comprehensive, it is not easy to check so carefully thousands of miles away.

"Eagle Eagle"

Yu Donglai gave a soft cry.

The black robed man who had been standing respectfully in front of him immediately replied, "what do you want to do?"

This is a man who looks about 30 years old. He is tall and thin. Although he is wearing a wide black robe, it doesn't make him look fuller at all. It was because the robe was too fat and he was too thin that he looked a little funny. It's like a cloth flag on a bamboo pole, or a gloomy soul calling flag.

The man is thin and his face is thinner.

Because the cheekbones spit out two cheeks and sink, it seems that the eyes are also convex outward, just like the eyes of a fish, and they are still the eyes of a dead fish.

He is not a dead fish. He is a good knife under Yu Donglai.

Yu Donglai took up the paper on the table and handed it to the eagle and said, "this young man, you watch him personally. You will never allow him to have any accident in the imperial capital."

"But... It seems that this guy has something to do with the death of our army in fan Gu."

The eagle said in a slightly unhappy tone.

"No matter what... Your majesty wrote the young man's name on the record of reserve talents. Although his son of poor family background was written into the record of reserve talents by your majesty, nine of the ten people were as silent as a stone immersed in the lake. But now we can't move. No one knows your Majesty's interest to meet this humble little man one day."

"Wait"

Yu Donglai was silent for a while and said, "if he can't remind his majesty of him within a year, he can only blame himself for his lack of ability. The emperor is too big... What can a dead little man turn over?"

"I see."

The eagle replied with a sneer, "I try my best to bear it."

"Zhuo Buyi came back and brought back a woman. He has never been moved by women, so this woman must have something outstanding. You should also send someone to watch. If this woman has a flying fish robe on her in a few days... You can't move the soldiers on the other side. The wild dogs in Qingya... Don't care if you bite. Even if you just move If you lose a bone in their mouth, they will jump up and bite you. "

"Here"

The eagle nodded and asked, "but it's so cheap. Is that boy too flattering? Let him die. Is it nothing to suffer?"

Yu Donglai's expression was slightly stifled, then shook his head and said: "Don't think about those meaningless things. Your brother died in fan Gu. I know you hate him. But as long as Fang Xie can be admitted to the martial arts academy, no one can move him. Don't say you, I can't move. As long as Zhou banchuan is still in the martial arts Academy for a day, no one can reach into the gate of the Academy."

The eagle smiled: "what if he can't enter the martial arts academy?"

"At least..."

Yu Donglai pondered for a while and said, "you have to let your majesty forget him, or... Give up on him. At this time, any minor matter may make your Majesty's Dragon Yan angry. So you'd better bear it, even if he is admitted to the martial arts academy? After three years, you'll be assigned to join the army in a border town. If you want to kill him, you can bear it for up to three years."

The eagle didn't speak, but he didn't care what Yu Donglai said.

Three years... It's been too long.

……

……

Fang Xie squatted on the horizontal branch of a big tree on the side of the road and looked at the direction of the imperial capital. The outline of the big city in the distance was so spectacular that it completely overturned the concept of the ancient city in Fang Xie's heart. Originally, he always thought that Chang'an city could not be bigger than the imperial capital in previous lives.

Now he knows how wrong he is.

It is at least ten miles away from Chang'an City, but looking at it from such a long distance, you still can't see the end of the city wall of Chang'an city. We can see the size of Chang'an city. Not to mention anything else, how much does it cost to build such a long, high and large circle of walls? I'm afraid only the great Sui Dynasty in the world has such strong national strength.

"Big dog"

Squatting on the branch of a tree, Fang Xie had in his mouth a cigarette bag that had been bought in the hands of a salesman for 25 copper coins. What he smoked was first-class cut tobacco worth one or two silver pounds. Although he smoked for the first time in the world, he was still very skilled in spitting out a string of cigarette rings.

He asked the big dog, "do you think Xiaoyao will confuse the people in the whole love yamen when she enters the imperial city? Will there be any young childe who is noble and handsome and has no skin or face to stick it when he sees her? Will Xiaoyao... Find the right person?"

"No"

The big dog squatting under the tree also had a cigarette bag in his mouth, but he didn't put cut tobacco in it. He may just feel that Fang Xie looks handsome with a cigarette bag in his mouth.

"If there is such a person, the small waist will only beat him everywhere looking for teeth."

The big dog replied seriously.

Fang Xie gave a sound and whispered, "then I'm relieved..."

Very small people.
