The prince is not doing his job [traveling]

In the Ziwei Palace, Xiao Yanzhi was sitting quietly. There was a low table in front of him. On the table was a cup of tea and an incense burner. In the center of the low table was a small stove with flickering candles. The spout of the teapot was steaming, and when I looked to the opposite side, there was another cup of clear tea, and then a slender hand painted with Danko broke into my sight, and took the cup of clear tea away.

Jiang Wan took a sip of the tea, and then said softly: "The tea here in this palace is all rewarded by His Majesty. I heard that it is all tribute tea from Jiangnan. Your Highness, taste it and see if it is similar to the ones His Highness drank in Jiangnan. How does it taste?"

Xiao Yanzhi smiled lightly when he heard the words, and said leisurely: "Just smelling the fragrance of this tea, you know that it is the best quality that cannot be found in the market. The things that are tribute to the royal family are always unique. Today, I have the honor of Concubine Jiang. It is an honor to taste it, and I would like to thank Concubine Jiang for her generosity."

When the words fell to the ground, Xiao Yanzhi picked up the teacup, sniffed the aroma of the tea quite enjoyablely, and then took a sip of the tea soup. When he lowered his eyes, Xiao Yanzhi was complaining in his heart.

He just ate two extra bites at the Zhongqiu palace banquet, why did the emperor arrange for him to learn court etiquette again?And if you study etiquette, you will learn etiquette. Why did you arrange for him to come to Jiang Guifei's Ziwei Palace to learn it?The emperor cheated him and got addicted?

Putting down the teacup, Xiao Yanzhi's eyes were filled with a gentle smile again.

Taking a closer look at Xiao Yanzhi's appearance, Jiang Wan discovered that Xiao Yanzhi actually had similarities with the emperor. Although it was not obvious, the facial features of the emperor when he was young were exactly like Xiao Yanzhi's.

It's just that the emperor joined the army when he was a teenager, and when he met her, he led the rebellion with high spirits, and there was a decisive domineering look all over his body.

However, Xiao Yanzhi is a merchant in the south of the Yangtze River. He must be used to greeting people with a smile. Zhizhi doesn't look like the emperor's own son.

Putting down the teacup, Jiang Wan smiled and said, "Although Your Majesty has asked me to arrange someone to teach His Royal Highness court etiquette, I see that Your Highness is naturally noble, and his behavior is more like a prince than Shan'er. How can I need someone to teach me?"

"The noble concubine has won the award," Xiao Yanzhi lowered his eyes slightly, "Compared with the second emperor brother, I am still far behind. After all, the second emperor brother was taught by the emperor himself, so he must be the one who suits the emperor's wishes the most among the brothers. .”

"Your Highness is too modest," Jiang Wan said with a giggle, "Shan'er, he is good at everything, even if he is stupid, he can't say a word of flattery. I only hope that His Majesty will not misunderstand Shan'er." Just fine."

"A known son is like a father, Concubine Jiang doesn't need to worry." Don't tell him if you are worried, he can't help you with this matter.

Jiang Wan sighed, and said: "How can we not worry, I only have such a son in this palace, I don't expect him to be famous, I just hope that he will be safe and sound in this life."

Hearing this, Xiao Yanzhi secretly sneered.

If Concubine Jiang really only wanted Xu Lishan's life to be safe, then Xu Lishan would be able to live a happy, peaceful and beautiful life, but it's a pity...

Seeing that Xiao Yanzhi didn't respond after hearing this, Jiang Wan breathed a sigh of relief, smiled, and said, "Forget it, what are you talking about with Your Highness, it's been too long since anyone can chat with me. Your Majesty said that I want someone to teach His Majesty the rules of the court, but I feel that Your Highness knows everything, it just depends on how you feel and whether you want to do it, so I will not do that annoying thing, so I told His Majesty Let me tell you about the interesting things in the palace that I have experienced in the past three or four years."

Xiao Yanzhi raised his eyebrows, quite surprised in his heart, but nodded with a smile and said: "Concubine Jiang is really understanding, so I will thank Concubine Jiang."

How can there be any interesting things that happened in the palace?Those piles, one by one, are said for fun, but there is hidden in it the way of survival in the palace, and Jiang Guifei, as the head of the six palaces with no real name, most of what she will experience is the same. For major events, it is beneficial and harmless for him to hear a few "interesting stories".If Concubine Jiang really spoke to him sincerely, then he would still remember Concubine Jiang as a favor.

Jiang Wan smiled softly, and then told Xiao Yanzhi the things she knew in the harem. Xiao Yanzhi listened carefully, and occasionally echoed a few words, as if he was really listening to Concubine Jiang's jokes.

The two talked until noon, and when Zhao Kang came to Ziwei Hall to pick him up, the two were still overjoyed at what they had to say.

Seeing Zhao Kang, Jiang Wan suppressed his smile, stopped the topic, and teased Xiao Yanzhi: "I haven't seen you for a while, Your Majesty misses His Highness, Your Highness can go with Zhao Kang quickly, don't tell Your Majesty to wait." I'm in a hurry, I should blame Ben Gong for holding his precious son and not returning it."

"Father doesn't miss me. He is afraid that I will cause trouble, so he specially asked Zhao Kang to watch me." Xiao Yanzhi stood up with a smile, and bowed to Concubine Jiang, "I have been bothering you for a long time today. It has benefited a lot, thank you.”

Jiang Wan laughed so that the branches trembled, and said: "Your Highness, you are welcome, go quickly, Your Majesty probably wants to have a meal with His Highness."

"Farewell." Xiao Yanzhi nodded and left with Zhao Kang.

After leaving the gate of Ziwei Palace, Xiao Yanzhi let out a long sigh of relief. While thinking about what Jiang Wan said just now, he walked towards Liangyi Palace accompanied by Zhao Kang, Lian Sheng and He Yan.

But as he walked, Xiao Yanzhi suddenly had the feeling of being watched. The sight was so strong that Xiao Yanzhi couldn't ignore it.

Stopped and looked around, Xiao Yanzhi wanted to see who was looking at him, but when he turned his head, Xiao Yanzhi found that the harem seemed to be a little more lively today, not far from him in all directions There were concubines gathered in twos and threes, and they seemed to be walking together, but why did they all seem to be secretly looking at him?

Xiao Yanzhi asked Zhao Kang, "Lord Zhao, what happened in the harem today? Why is it so lively?"

Zhao Kang also looked left and right, shook his head and said, "Returning to Your Highness, this old slave has never heard of it. When the old slave came, they were already here."

Hearing this, Xiao Yan raised his brows lightly.

They were already there when Zhao Kang came?Then they took a little longer for a walk... Forget it, it has nothing to do with him.

Curling his lips, Xiao Yanzhi continued to walk towards Liangyi Hall.

Xiao Yanzhi didn't take this matter to heart, but Zhao Kang did.

Before, he only thought these women were taking a walk, so he didn't think much about it. He was just curious when the relationship between the women in the harem became so good, but now he came out with His Highness, and looked at the look of these women with bright eyes. He could be considered to know why these women gathered near Ziwei Hall from their respective palaces.

But just met His Highness at the palace banquet last night, why are they still thinking about it?

Lian Sheng was also curious as to why these concubines would scatter near the Ziwei Palace for a walk, so Lian Sheng, who followed Xiao Yanzhi, devoted a little energy to paying attention to those concubines, until he found that no matter how far they walked, those concubines were When he was always hovering not far behind, Lian Sheng suddenly realized that the reason why these concubines came to the Ziwei Palace at the risk of being caught by Concubine Jiang to make a mockery of it was to see Xiao Yanzhi .

Lian Sheng hesitated for a moment, then took a step forward, and said in a low voice behind Xiao Yanzhi: "His Royal Highness, those concubines seem to be following behind, Your Highness, look..."

"En?" Xiao Yanzhi suddenly stopped, turned around and looked back, and found that Lian Sheng was really talking about it, "What are they doing behind?"

"Slave...don't know." Lian Sheng shook his head, not daring to express his conjecture.

Xiao Yanzhi pondered for a moment, and then told Lian Sheng: "Lian Sheng, go and ask them to see if there is something wrong."

"Ah? Ask..." Lian Sheng glanced at Zhao Kang in embarrassment. Seeing Zhao Kang nodded slightly, he agreed, "Yes, I will ask you now."

Bite the bullet and turn around, Lian Sheng looked around, then trotted towards the direction of some of the concubines, but Lian Sheng only ran halfway, the concubine seemed to have sensed Lian Sheng's intentions, she turned around and left after a cry of surprise. Running, laughing and laughing while stepping back and forth.Turning his head and looking in other directions, Lian Sheng found that the other concubines had also disappeared.

Stopping in his tracks, Lian Sheng turned around and looked at Xiao Yanzhi helplessly.

Xiao Yanzhi was also confused by the situation.

Zhao Kang coughed dryly, and said awkwardly to Xiao Yanzhi: "Your Highness, since they ran away, there should be nothing urgent to find His Highness, His Majesty is still waiting in the Hall of Liangyi, let's go quickly. "

"Well, let's go." Beckoning Lian Sheng to come back, Xiao Yanzhi quickly walked towards the Hall of Liangyi.

Walking fast, Xiao Yanzhi walked out of the harem in a short while, and when the concubines who hid came out again, they could no longer find Xiao Yanzhi, so they could only go back to the bedroom with regret, thinking Hope to come back at this time tomorrow, anyway, they have nothing to do every day, instead of spending all their time in the dormitory in a daze, they might as well come out to bask in the sun and have a look at His Majesty's demeanor, even if they can only watch from afar It is also pleasing to the eye.

When Xiao Yanzhi arrived at Liangyi Hall, the emperor had already been waiting in the apse for a long time.

"Why did you come here?" Waving his hand to avoid Xiao Yanzhi's gift, the emperor watched Xiao Yanzhi take his seat with a smile.

Xiao Yanzhi sat down grinningly, curled his lips and said: "Isn't it because the father has arranged too many things for the son? Father, can the son not go to Jiang Guifei?"

"Did she make things difficult for you?"

Xiao Yanzhi shook his head and said, "That's not true, but it doesn't guarantee that there will always be."

The emperor laughed lightly when he heard the words, and said, "She herself said that she wanted to take this opportunity to get to know you better."

"Father, the ears of the emperor were softened by the wind beside the pillow?" Xiao Yanzhi looked at the emperor with dissatisfaction.

"Nonsense!" The emperor glared at Xiao Yan, "Since she invited you over by herself, she wouldn't dare to make any trouble with you and send you to her side, and the Jiang family won't bother you for the time being. .”

When the emperor mentioned the Jiang family, Xiao Yanzhi asked curiously, "What? What did the Jiang family say to the emperor?"

"What can you say?" The emperor threw a piece of meat into his mouth and said after swallowing, "Isn't it just that the cooked duck will fly away?"

"Oh," Xiao Yanzhi said with a sigh, "what should I do to reassure them?"

The emperor snorted coldly and said, "They can't feel at ease if I'm not dead."

Xiao Yanzhi curled his lips and didn't answer.

The emperor suddenly let out a long sigh, and said, "If the second child's mind is half as quick as yours, I will feel relieved."

Xiao Yanzhi thought for a while, and said: "Second brother is still young, and he hasn't experienced many things. If father is willing to send him out of Chang'an to practice for a few years, he will definitely grow up."

There are too many people in Chang'an City who can protect Xu Lishan. Only Concubine Jiang will help Xu Lishan clear the obstacles, and will not make him wronged. With Pei Ze escorting him, it is not bad if he does not grow into the second Qin Fengming .Thinking back to when he was seventeen or eighteen years old, he was also very stupid and naive. Now that he has passed away for several years, can he not be active?

The emperor pondered for a long time, nodded and sighed: "I have been tired of government affairs in the court for the past few years. It is because I have neglected the cultivation of the second and third children. I only want to find someone to teach them everything I can teach them, but I forgot some things. You can’t learn without experiencing it once.”

Xiao Yanzhi suddenly regretted that he had said so much.

If the emperor really sent Xu Lishan to some remote village to practice for a few years, would Concubine Jiang hate him to death?

"Father, you don't have to worry so much. Everyone has their own destiny, and children and grandchildren have their own blessings."

The emperor rolled his eyes and said, "Can I not be worried about the country I have worked so hard to build?"

"That's true." Xiao Yanzhi shrugged, "By the way, father, why don't you see your two younger brothers today?"

Before the mid-autumn festival, there were always five people dining together, so why are there only two of him and the emperor left today?

Hearing this, the emperor glared at Xiao Yan again, and said, "I don't know what you can remember in your heart! At the end of the month, there will be a selection of beautiful women. From these few days, all the beautiful women who want to participate in the election should go to Chang'an Well, they are all busy to keep Chang'an city safe, and you think you have too many things to do when you are free all day long!"

Xiao Yanzhi immediately shut his mouth obediently and concentrated on eating, as if the food cooked by the imperial chef was particularly appetizing today, causing the emperor to roll his eyes several times at him.

After eating and drinking in Liangyi Hall, Xiao Yanzhi took He Yan and Lian Sheng to the Hongwen Hall, and as soon as he entered the door, he saw Ji Wencheng sitting behind the desk looking at the bamboo slips as usual.

In the past, Xiao Yanzhi never paid attention to the bamboo slips that Ji Wencheng was looking at. Looking carefully today, Xiao Yanzhi found that the bamboo slips spread in front of Ji Wencheng were not the volume he had translated before Mid-Autumn Festival.

Xiao Yanzhi was so regretful that his intestines were green.

There is no playbook in the Hongwen Museum, so it’s fine for him to find some bamboo slips written in foreign languages ​​to pass the time, why do you think he has to mark them after reading them?To show off his knowledge?How could he scribble on the bamboo slips that he had worked so hard to carve?Is he cheap?Is it cheap?

Sitting down opposite to Ji Wencheng, Xiao Yanzhi sighed, "Mr. Ji has caused me so much misery!"

Ji Wencheng was startled, looked up at Xiao Yanzhi suspiciously, and said slowly, "The old man is terrified, why did Your Highness say such a thing?"

Xiao Yanzhi smiled helplessly: "Mr. Ji has read all the bamboo slips that I read in boredom before?"

Ji Wencheng nodded and said, "I've seen it, and the old man is watching it too."

Xiao Yanzhi said again: "Then Mr. Ji talked to Father about this matter?"

Ji Wencheng nodded honestly again, and said, "Well, I said it."

Xiao Yanzhi smiled wryly and said: "Now Qin Fengming, the Shaoqing of Hongyu Temple, made a mistake and was dismissed. My father ordered me to take Qin Fengming's place temporarily."

After hearing this, Ji Wencheng thought about it for a long time, no matter how he thought about it, he felt that this was a good thing. Why was it that His Highness made it sound like a catastrophe was imminent?

Ji Wencheng stared at Xiao Yanzhi, and felt that Xiao Yanzhi's disgusted look didn't seem like a fake, so he asked suspiciously: "The old man doesn't understand what His Highness means, and His Majesty trusts His Highness, so it's a good thing to entrust him with a heavy responsibility. ah."

Xiao Yan was stunned, and could only let out a long sigh: "Forget it, what do you want to talk about today, sir?"

Ji Wencheng stared at Xiao Yanzhi again, and then slowly put away the bamboo slips, took out a square of rice paper from under the desk, put it on the table and slowly unfolded it.

"I don't give lectures today, and the old man has taught His Highness a lot. I want to test His Highness today to see how much His Highness has learned."

Ji Wencheng said these words calmly, but Xiao Yanzhi felt like a bolt from the blue when he heard it.

"Take... a test?" He had never heard of the test!

"What?" Seeing that Xiao Yanzhi seemed to be frightened, Ji Wencheng was also taken aback, "Didn't the old man tell His Highness?"

Xiao Yanzhi shook his head violently.

Ji Wencheng squinted his eyes and thought for a while, then said leisurely: "Then the old man probably forgot to inform His Highness. He should have informed His Highness before the Mid-Autumn Festival, so that His Highness can have time to review. But that's not important, Your Highness please Let's start answering."

With that said, Ji Wencheng also sent the pen and ink to Xiao Yanzhi.

Xiao Yanzhi held the writing brush that Ji Wencheng forced over him, and stared blankly at the neatly written line of small characters on the rice paper, his mind went blank.

He knew all those characters, but why didn't they know each other after they were linked together?

"Sir, this..." Xiao Yanzhi looked at Ji Wencheng pitifully.

"En?" Ji Wencheng also looked at Xiao Yanzhi, "Is there something you don't understand, Your Highness?"

Xiao Yanzhi opened his mouth, but he didn't have the nerve to say that he didn't understand anything.

Looking at the snow-white rice paper again, Xiao Yanzhi felt like crying without tears.

At least there were multiple-choice questions in the exam back then to try for luck, but the paper was full of only one question and answer question, how should he answer it?

Gritting his teeth, Xiao Yanzhi put down his pen as he was ready to be scolded.

"Sir, the student is dull and can't figure out how to answer."

"Can't think of it?" Ji Wencheng looked at Xiao Yanzhi in surprise, and then looked at the title written by himself on the rice paper, "Your Highness... think again?"

Xiao Yanzhi shook his head with a smile, and said, "The students really can't think of it."

Ji Wencheng was in trouble.

This test was actually arranged by His Majesty. When he brought the bamboo slips translated by His Majesty to meet His Majesty, His Majesty said that he wanted to know about His Majesty's study progress and asked him to arrange a test from time to time and then submit it to His Majesty.

Considering His Majesty's special situation, he specially chose the easy question, but if His Majesty can't even answer this question, how should he explain to His Majesty?

Ji Wencheng pondered for a while, then suddenly tore off the part of the rice paper where the words were written, threw it aside in a ball, and said solemnly: "Then, please write a poem with the theme of Xia, Your Highness, seven-character quatrains Just...five-character quatrains are fine."

Reduce the number of words, Your Highness should be able to write it, right?

Xiao Yanzhi laughed when he heard this, a wry smile.

He doesn't know any of the seven or five words, so what's the use of Ji Wencheng just reducing the number of words for him?Or copy a song?Forget it, don't let Ji Wencheng submit his writings to the emperor after this, and if the emperor mistakenly thinks that he still has the talent for poetry, then he will be miserable.There are so many banquets throughout the year, even if he memorizes all three hundred capitals, it may not be enough, let alone recites one capital for a long time, and he still won't ask for trouble.

"Forgive me sir, the student has no talent for poetry."

"Then, what do you know, Your Highness?" Ji Wencheng suddenly grabbed the bamboo slips that he had thrown away just now, "Could it be that Your Highness can only translate foreign languages?"

Xiao Yanzhi was full of helplessness.

He also spoke Chinese quite well, but he could understand the poems, songs, Fu, Four Books and Five Classics, but he couldn't understand them. The questions Ji Wencheng asked were even more profound.And he can only understand those old foreign language with guesswork.

I still blame him for being cheap...

However, Ji Wencheng took Xiao Yanzhi's smile as acquiescence, stared at Xiao Yanzhi for a while, and then hesitated and said: "Your Highness... this is also a talent, and few people can achieve it." Your Highness has achieved such an achievement now."

I don't know the culture of my own family, but I can understand a lot of foreign cultures. Did this His Highness really grow up in the south of the Yangtze River?Has he never lived in the Western Regions?Wasn't born in the Great Food Country?Are there no relatives who are Turkic or Huihe?Is there a friend from Silla?It is really amazing to be able to understand so many foreign languages ​​at such a young age!

Xiao Yanzhi just smiled and said nothing.

Let Ji Wencheng guess for himself.

Ji Wencheng looked at Xiao Yanzhi again, suddenly took the brush in front of Xiao Yanzhi, quickly wrote a few lines of small characters on the rice paper, and said: "In this case, the old man will only ask His Highness a few simple questions, as long as Your Highness has memorized what the old man said, and he will definitely be able to answer it."

Xiao Yanzhi supported his forehead.

He never listened carefully to Ji Wencheng's lectures, so what could he write down?

Ji Wencheng, who finished writing the topic, looked up and saw Xiao Yanzhi sighing while holding his forehead. Ji Wencheng was startled, and immediately understood.

As soon as he dropped the pen, Ji Wencheng looked at Xiao Yanzhi with furious eyebrows, and said angrily: "This old man has always thought that His Highness is a loyal and honest person, but His Highness is just playing tricks on this old man! His Highness has never heard this old man's lectures, and even came to Hongwen Hall do what?!"

Most scholars don't like others to belittle their knowledge. Ji Wencheng was originally a stubborn literati, so he cared more about such things.

Xiao Yanzhi trembled in shock, picked up the pen hastily, and said with a flattering smile: "Sir, calm down, it's because the student is stupid and can't understand what the teacher said, student..."

"The old man won't listen!" Ji Wencheng interrupted Xiao Yanzhi, and then changed his usual slow manner, stood up abruptly, and ran outside, "The old man will go and tell His Majesty, the old man can't teach His Highness! "

"Eh?" Xiao Yanzhi was dumbfounded.

Why is this going to be in front of the emperor?Didn't he just fail to answer the questions in the exam?

Xiao Yanzhi hurriedly got up and chased after him: "Mr. Ji! Mr. Ji, wait for me!"

He Yan and Lian Sheng who had been guarding the door were taken aback by this scene, but seeing Xiao Yanzhi chasing after Ji Wencheng, they both followed suit.

Seeing Ji Wencheng sprinting in front of him, Xiao Yanzhi's heart trembled, fearing that Ji Wencheng would fail to run and then fall again.

"He Yan, catch up and protect Mr. Ji!"

How can an old man who sits in Hongwen Hall every day run so fast?It's just that he ran a dozen steps first, why can't he catch up?

"Yes, Your Highness!"

He Yan immediately sped up to catch up, but Ji Wencheng ran so fast that He Yan didn't dare to stop him forcefully. He could only hinder Ji Wencheng while running, but at least it slowed down Ji Wencheng.

"Mr. Ji!" Xiao Yanzhi made an emergency stop and turned in front of Ji Wencheng, finally stopping him, "Mr. Ji calm down, the student knows his mistake, shall we go back to the Hongwen Hall first?"

Ji Wencheng was still on the edge, blowing his beard and yelling angrily, "No! I want to meet His Majesty! I want to meet His Majesty!"

Before he finished speaking, Ji Wencheng wanted to bypass the interception of Xiao Yanzhi, He Yan and Lian Sheng.

But without Xiao Yanzhi's order, how could He Yan and Lian Sheng dare to let Ji Wencheng leave, but they were afraid of hurting Ji Wencheng, so they could only surround Ji Wencheng and hurriedly stopped him.

Seeing Ji Wencheng jumping up and down energetically, Xiao Yanzhi helplessly supported his forehead.

What a crime he really did!

When Pei Ze passed by here in a hurry, he was naturally attracted by the noisy people on Xiao Yanzhi's side. When he turned his head and saw Xiao Yanzhi standing there, Pei Ze strode over.

"What is Your Highness doing here?"

Hearing Pei Ze's voice at first, Xiao Yanzhi was taken aback. When he turned around and saw Pei Ze himself, Xiao Yanzhi immediately leaned over.

"Brother Yi, lean on me, my head hurts." As soon as Xiao Yanzhi put his arm on Pei Ze's shoulder, he leaned on it, looking physically and mentally exhausted.

"What's wrong?" Pei Ze looked at Ji Wencheng who was jumping up and down, and said amusedly, "How did you provoke Ji Wencheng?"

Xiao Yanzhi said wearily, "It's just that Mr. Ji's question could not be answered."

Pei Ze chuckled lightly, raised his hand and tapped Xiao Yanzhi's head with the folder in his hand, and said, "That's all, it's bad luck if you can't answer Mr. Ji's question."

Xiao Yanzhi raised his head when he heard the words, looked at Pei Ze curiously and asked, "Brother Yi has also experienced it?"

Pei Ze nodded.

When they first entered the palace, it was Ji Wencheng who told them history books and topography.

Seeing Pei Ze nod his head, Xiao Yanzhi smiled and said, "Knowing that there are people who have experienced the same thing as me, I feel balanced."

Pei Ze rolled Xiao Yan's eyes, and said again: "Qin Tai is with His Majesty."

The implication was that even if Ji Wencheng went, he might not be able to see His Majesty right now.

Xiao Yanzhi's eyes lit up, he immediately waved his hands to He Yan and Lian Sheng, and said, "Let Mr. Ji go."

Only then did He Yan and Lian Sheng heave a sigh of relief, and hurried out of the way to make way for Ji Wencheng.

But Ji Wencheng didn't move, he looked suspiciously at Xiao Yanzhi and Pei Ze who were getting together, and felt that there must be something tricky in it, so Ji Wencheng suddenly turned around and walked towards Hongwen Hall.

"Hmph! The old man suddenly remembered that there is still something to do in the Hongwen Museum. I will talk about the meeting with His Majesty tomorrow." Before the words finished, Ji Wencheng had already walked away.

Xiao Yanzhi was stunned, and stared at Ji Wencheng's back in a daze: "...this old man!"

Pei Ze smiled and said, "Mr. Ji has always been like this."

Xiao Yanzhi pursed his lips, then patted Pei Ze's shoulder, and said with a smile: "Thank you brother Yi for your help, then I won't bother brother Yi."

After finishing speaking, Xiao Yanzhi cupped his hands at Pei Ze in a dignified manner, but when he turned to leave, Pei Ze grabbed the collar of his collar.

"You have nothing to do later?" Pei Ze caught Xiao Yanzhi and asked.

Xiao Yanzhi shook his head and said, "It's all right."

"Then follow me!" Pei Ze unceremoniously dragged Xiao Yanzhi away.

"Eh?" Xiao Yanzhi was confused, "Where are you going?"

Pei Ze didn't answer Xiao Yanzhi's question, but changed from pulling his collar to pulling his sleeves, and dragged Xiao Yanzhi all the way to the Youjinwu Guard Camp.

"Come and help me." Stepping into the office of the Youjinwu Guard Camp, Pei Zecai finally opened his mouth.

Xiao Yanzhi blinked and asked blankly, "What can I do for you?"

These words stopped Pei Ze from asking.

What can Xiao Yanzhi do?He really doesn't know about this, but today he has been busy since he went down to the present, and he just feels that he has no skills, so he forced Xiao Yanzhi to work as a coolie, but Xiao Yanzhi has never been in touch with anything. do what?

"Find a place to sit down first." There will always be something Xiao Yanzhi can do.

Xiao Yanzhi scratched the corner of his mouth, looked around, and sat down in a place that didn't seem to be in the way.

Xiao Yanzhi also felt that since Pei Ze called him here, there should be something he could do, but after sitting in the Youjinwu Guard Camp for almost an afternoon, Xiao Yanzhi didn't do anything, just sat Ass hurts.

Seeing that Pei Zeli had gone out and in eight times, Xiao Yanzhi finally couldn't sit still.

He got up and rubbed his buttocks, walked around the room, found a pot and a cup, Xiao Yanzhi looked at these two, then looked at Pei Ze who was giving orders, Xiao Yanzhi was holding the pot and a cup Cup sneaks out of the house.

After washing the pot and cup, Xiao Yanzhi asked the people in the Youjinwu Guard camp for some hot water, and then carried the pot and cup back to the room where he stayed just now.

In the room, Pei Ze was still sitting at the table talking to someone, and seeing his concentration, he knew that he must have not noticed him slipping away.

Xiao Yanzhi pursed his lips, poured a cup of hot water, and rubbed his head behind Pei Ze, swaying his head left and right to look, finally found a place where the cup could be placed, so he put the cup down, and then shook it again. He wobbled back to his previous position and sat down.

Xiao Yanzhi sat back, but Pei Ze didn't notice what Xiao Yanzhi did when he was not paying attention, but the people who were talking to Pei Ze kept looking at Xiao Yan with suspicious eyes Of.

It was the first time that King Wu Cheng took this irrelevant person with him at work, who is this person?

Suddenly realizing that the person in front of him was not paying attention, Pei Ze raised his head with a cold face: "What are you looking at?"

"No! It's nothing!" Several people came back to their senses immediately, "My lord, are you thirsty? Drink water."

Someone pushed the glass of water in front of Pei Ze.

Pei Ze looked at the glass of water and asked suspiciously, "Where did the water come from?"

There was no glass of water on the table when he entered the door. Who and when put it there?

Upon hearing Pei Ze's question, the others all pointed to Xiao Yanzhi.

Pei Ze followed the directions of several people's fingers, and saw Xiao Yanzhi lying on the table bored, and then remembered Xiao Yanzhi who was forcibly brought here by him.

Pei Ze frowned slightly, and asked Xiao Yanzhi, "Did I ask you to help?"

Xiao Yanzhi lazily got up from the table, nodded and said, "En, yes."

"Then what did you do?"

Xiao Yanzhi thought for a while and said, "Did you pour me a glass of water?"

Hearing this, the corners of Pei Ze's eyes twitched violently.

He didn't ask Xiao Yanzhi to do this!

Xiao Yanzhi shrugged innocently.

It's not his fault.

The corners of Pei Ze's eyes twitched again, he poured down the glass of water, and continued to discuss matters with the few people in front of him.

Xiao Yanzhi, who was not ordered, lay back on the table again.

Until Pei Ze finished all the tasks for today, Xiao Yanzhi lay on the table as if he had no bones, and did nothing.

Seeing Xiao Yanzhi's lazy appearance, the exhausted Pei Ze was so angry that he couldn't even utter a word, he just slumped on the chair and stared at Xiao Yanzhi fiercely.

Xiao Yanzhi was amused by Pei Ze's unwilling expression, got up and poured a glass of water for Pei Ze.

"I heard that your voice is hoarse. When you return to Wanchun Palace, ask Xiushui to steam you a bowl of Chuanbei pear." Xiao Yanzhi leaned against the table and smiled, "I heard my father said that you were busy at lunch, but I didn't expect to be so busy, it's a pity."

"Then you won't help?" Pei Ze poured down the glass of water again, and when he put down the glass, he raised his chin, signaling Xiao Yanzhi to have another glass.

Xiao Yanzhi smiled while pouring water: "Didn't I come with you? Brother Yi forgot to order me."

Pei Ze drank another glass of water angrily, and only then felt a little more comfortable.

Looking at the angry Pei Ze amusedly, Xiao Yanzhi asked, "Where's the second brother? I thought he was definitely with you."

"How do I know where he is? Anyway, during this period, he was either running around the palace or around Chang'an City." Pei Ze rolled his eyes at Xiao Yan.

He is closer to Xu Lishan, but relatively speaking, no matter how close he is, can he stay together all day long?What are two big men going to do when they get tired of being together?

After resting, Pei Ze stood up, grabbed Xiao Yanzhi's sleeve and pulled him out: "Go back."

"Have you finished your work?" Xiao Yanzhi followed behind Pei Ze, staring at his sleeve that was being pulled.

If Pei Ze tore off his sleeve, could it be called broken sleeve?By the way, why are you pulling his sleeve?Can't you hold hands?

After imagining the scene of himself holding hands with Pei Ze, Xiao Yanzhi shivered instead.

It's better to pull your sleeves.

Xiao Yanzhi walked half a step quickly and walked side by side with Pei Ze, then glanced at his sleeve, and felt that Pei Ze's action of pulling his sleeve was not too conspicuous.

"Well, today's business is over." Pei Ze glanced at Xiao Yanzhi who was chasing after him, but Pei Ze didn't realize that he was tugging on Xiao Yanzhi's sleeve, "Are you going to the Liangyi Palace for dinner? "

Xiao Yanzhi shook his head and said: "If Father doesn't pass on the message, there is no need to go. But it seems that it is almost time for Father to eat. If he wants to pass it on, I can't pass it."

"En." Pei Ze nodded and said nothing more.

Back at Wanchun Palace, Xiao Yanzhi stood at the door and looked at Pei Ze who was fixed in front of his eyes. After thinking for a while, he hesitated and asked, "Do you want to come to Wanchun Palace to have dinner together?"

Before Xiao Yanzhi's words hit the ground, Pei Ze gave an "en" and walked in.

Looking at Pei Ze's calm back, Xiao Yanzhi twitched the corners of his mouth.

Pei Ze planned to stay in Wanchun Palace for dinner from the beginning, right?Then just say no, why do you have to wait for his invitation?Every night when Pei Ze came to Wanchun Hall, he never waited for him to ask for an invitation.

Shrugging his shoulders and following through the door, Xiao Yanzhi hurriedly asked Xiushui to order some food from the small kitchen. It didn't need to be delicate, the sooner the better, he always felt that the tired and hungry Pei Ze seemed to be in a bad mood.

Sitting down at the dining table with Pei Ze and waiting for the meal, Xiao Yanzhi drank the tea that Xiushui had just made, and suddenly turned to Xiushui, "Xiushui, what happened at the Hall of Erectile Dysfunction this afternoon... ?"

He was a little concerned about Qin Tai's affairs.

As soon as Xiushui heard Xiao Yanzhi's question, she showed a surprised expression. She glanced at Pei Ze, and seeing that Xiao Yanzhi didn't mind, she said, "Your Highness never asks these things, but today it's really good." asked.

The servant girl heard that Lord Qin was absent this morning due to illness, but after noon, he took Qin Shaoqing from Honglu Temple to see His Majesty, saying that he came to take the blame for the crime, and heard that His Majesty lost his temper in the imperial study, but It's not human to scold Master Qin inside and out.

The servant girl heard people say that the relationship between His Majesty and Lord Qin is very good. They are like brothers. It seems that it is the first time that His Majesty has lost such a big temper with Lord Qin in so many years.

The servant girl also heard that Master Qin cried terribly when he left the Liangyi Hall. "

Xiao Yanzhi originally asked that question, but he didn't expect Xiushui to talk a lot like a storyteller, and Xiao Yanzhi couldn't help laughing after hearing every sentence.

Hearing Xiushui's words, Pei Ze raised his eyebrows, feeling a little surprised, pondered for a moment, then looked at Xiao Yanzhi suspiciously, and asked, "What did you tell His Majesty last night that made His Majesty dismiss Qin Fengming?"

They have also caught many brats of the Qin family before, but Qin Tai can use the strength of the Qin family to settle the matter every time. Like this time, he was so wrong that he asked Qin Fengming to plead guilty first, and then personally escorted Qin Fengming to come. It's the first time
