, Immediately said: "Ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai aai

Zhao Anchen sighed, and asked, "What exactly are you trying to say?"

Ming Xiaoyang giggled: "It's nothing... Oh, don't read the Buddhist scriptures, let's chat! Aren't you going to get married? Tell me what you like?" He snatched the Buddhist scriptures and put them aside.

Zhao Anchen asked back, "What about you?"

Ming Xiaoyang raised his head and thought for a while, then said slowly: "I, I like good-looking ones, I like mine very much! Well, that's it!"

Zhao Anchen calmed down a little, and said, "I like to laugh, I'm lively and active, I'm skinny and shameless."

Ming Xiaoyang froze for a moment, then laughed dryly: "Heh, heh, Zhao Yi, your taste is very unique, heh heh..."

Zhao Anchen looked at Ming Xiaoyang, his eyes darkened, and the corner of his mouth curled upwards for a moment, then lowered his eyes and took the Buddhist scriptures.It was the first time Ming Xiaoyang saw this expression, he didn't understand it for a while, but his back felt cold.He also said: "Drinking with Sima Cheng a few days ago, he said that his family is discussing marriage for him, and he will have a wife this year or next year. I was thinking about what my future wife will be like? Is it beautiful? I don't know if it is gentle A virtuous one, or a lively and lovely one? I think both are fine..."

Zhao Anchen listened to Ming Xiaoyang's incessant noise, his brows were slightly frowned, and he lowered his eyes and said nothing.

Ming Xiaoyang was still imagining foolishly: "Maybe it's not bad to be petite and charming..."

The more Zhao Anchen listened, the more irritable he became: "You, shut up!"

Ming Xiaoyang curled his lips, and said in dissatisfaction: "Why? May you get married, can't I think about it?"

Zhao Anchen got up and left Chaomuju, went to Sansheng Pavilion, sat down at the desk, and saw the cabinet with a bunch of erotic pictures behind it, sighed, rubbed his forehead, and sat with his eyes closed to rest his mind.

Seeing that Zhao Anchen ignored him and ran away, Ming Xiaoyang thought to himself, "Oh? The state officials are only allowed to set fires and not allow the people to light lamps? Tsk, Zhao Yi's mood fluctuated a lot today...It really is too hot in summer..."

☆, wind and cloud rise

Recently, the officials frequently called Zhao Anchen into the palace, mostly to ask him some opinions on the matters discussed in the court, and they often discussed things very late, and spent more time in the palace.

Zhao Anchen was in the palace for a few days and was about to return to Nuanyuan when the official said: "Chen'er, from tomorrow onwards, you will also go to court every morning. Your third brother, fourth brother, and fifth brother will be in charge of the government for a while."

Zhao Anchen couldn't go back to Nuanyuan for a while. After all, in the northern suburbs, he could only live in the Duke of Wu's Mansion or Prince Ning's Mansion, so it was convenient for him to go to court.Zhao Anchen had no choice but to take the court uniform and go back to Duke Wu's mansion.

Speaking of this court dress, all civil and military men in the court envy Bai Heyun. Only this female general can wear casual clothes to the court at will, and everyone else is in the same court dress. Wu Guogong’s family members are all above the third rank, Bai Heyun wears it casually, Ming Ruiran and Mingjue wear purple robes and gold belts, and this time there is another prince.

With the official's order, Kang Wang and Qing Wang complained endlessly, and their free and undisciplined life was disrupted, and they were extremely distressed.

Early this morning, Steward Zhu and the servants of Duke Wu's mansion had just started cleaning in the morning to prepare for the day's affairs in the mansion.As soon as the door of the mansion opened, a servant in the palace came to deliver the message.

The servant entered the mansion and said softly: "Your Majesty has something to inform General Bai, please inform the housekeeper."

Butler Zhu said: "Okay, my lord, please come to the main hall later, I will invite you immediately."

The servant bowed to Bai Heyun, and whispered: "General Bai, you have to go to court early today, and in the last few days, you have to go to court early every day. After the court, please go to the imperial study with General Bai and Duke Wu to discuss matters."

Bai Heyun nodded slightly, and said in a low voice: "Okay, I understand, thank you for your hard work."

The Duke of Wu's mansion is a general, although Ming Jue is a civil servant, but he has practiced martial arts since he was a child, and he is usually used to riding a horse to court, just like his parents.Today, however, Bai Heyun asked someone to prepare the official sedan chair of Duke Wu, and he went up to court in the sedan chair.

Instruct Butler Zhu to say: "If an outsider who has nothing to do with you comes here recently, just say that I am unwell and recuperating, so it is not suitable for receiving guests."

Butler Zhu said, "Yes, ma'am."

Bai Heyun called Huo Yuan and ordered: "Ask all the secret guards of the Bai family to release the news that I am suffering from a serious disease and getting weaker day by day. Within ten days, the whole world will know about it!"

Huo Yuan said: "Yes!"

The speed of the official sedan chair was much slower than that of riding a horse, so Bai Heyun left the mansion early by himself and boarded the official sedan chair to go to court.

After a while, Ming Ruiran and Ming Jue got dressed, got on their horses and went out.The most troublesome thing is Zhao Anchen, there are rules for the prince to go to court, he rides a wooden cart, brings guards, and enters the palace to go to court.Ming Ruiran protected him and protected him airtightly. He was surrounded by soldiers of the Imperial Army every day to go to court.Because it was more troublesome, Zhao Anchen could only be the last to leave the house.

The Duke of Wu's mansion looked very different in the morning. In one mansion, four of them went to the morning court, and the whole family went to the morning court, leaving only Ming Xiaoyang and Ming Le... This feeling... Uh, Ming Xiaoyang doesn't like it very much.

The people in the family who were in the early court have been very busy recently. After the court, they have to go to the imperial study to discuss matters. In addition, they occasionally have to do errands assigned by the government, and there is always no one to see.Ming Xiaoyang's dog skin plaster had nowhere to stick, and he became more and more depressed.

Recently, Ming Ruiran asked Ming Xiaoyang to review and study military art and formations, very seriously.Ming Xiaoyang didn't know what happened in the court, so he didn't dare to neglect at all.

Ming Xiaoyang practiced kung fu and studied, and would go out for a while. The days seemed tighter than before, but somehow he felt a sense of loneliness. He was laughing and joking as usual, but he didn’t invite himself when he was depressed, and he lived. For the first time in more than ten years, I feel lonely, and I don't know why, and occasionally drink some passion fruit in Nuanyuan to entertain myself.

Ming Le accompanied Ming Xiaoyang at home every day, and asked, "Brother, father and mother are suddenly busy, do you know why?"

Ming Xiaoyang said: "I don't know, neither did my parents. When I went out, I met Sima Cheng and Meng Zhang, and they didn't know either."

Ming Le said sullenly, "Not only are my parents absent, but Brother Ning Wang was also called away."

A trace of disappointment flashed in Ming Xiaoyang's eyes, listless.

That night, Ming Xiaoyang was sitting alone on the steps of Nuanyuan, looking at the moon with a piece of dogtail grass in his mouth. The little white cat came over, jumped on him, curled up on Ming Xiaoyang's lap, and lay down on his stomach. Comfortable.

Ming Xiaoyang said in his heart: "It's boring, holding the cat and looking at the moon..." Looking down at the cute little white cat, my heart felt soft, thinking that the cat has no name yet: "Well...what should I name it? I'll call you Mochizuki Let's go!" Gently picked up the white cat's ears and whispered to Wangyue more than a dozen times, intending to let it recognize the name quickly.

Above the court, there were so many things to discuss, it was a headache, and it was torture for King Kang and King Qing.

The official said: "Recently, I have received news that the Liao and Xia armies are mobilizing extremely frequently, armaments are being reorganized, and food and grass are being raised secretly and quickly. What do you think of this matter?"

Ming Ruiran said: "There is no doubt that we are preparing for the battle. My Song Dynasty should also prepare for the battle quickly."

Lord Jing Qiuhua, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, was quite suspicious and asked, "This...why didn't I receive the news?"

The official said: "The Imperial City Division in charge of intelligence received a report a few days ago, and it was just verified yesterday. The Ministry of War will get the news later." After finishing speaking, he glanced at Bai Heyun indistinctly.

The Minister of the Ministry of War said: "How will the Liao and Xia mobilize troops? Is the mobilization between the two countries, or is it going to target the Song Dynasty?"

Bai Heyun said: "For the time being, there is peace between the two countries, and there is no trouble in commerce and trade. It's just that the border with our Great Song Dynasty is very restless. It has repeatedly violated the border and disturbed the people, picking quarrels and provoking troubles. Merchants and pedestrians will also be affected. The Bai family received news that the courts of the two countries are indeed planning to plot against us, the Song Dynasty."

After hearing what General Bai said, the officials in the main hall felt tense and tense, and there were many discussions.

The official looked calm and asked, "What do you think, King Ning?"

Zhao Anchen said: "The current treasury of the Great Song Dynasty is sufficient, the country is peaceful and the people are safe for a long time, and the military power is getting stronger and stronger under the governance of Duke Wu. Now it is time to actively prepare for war to prevent Xia Liao from attacking."

The official nodded, and asked again: "What does King Kang think?"

Kang Wang was taken aback, somehow he was named?He thought to himself: "What did you just say? You said war, right? I'm not good at this. I know the differences between beauties from different countries, but I don't know anything else. What should I do?" He glanced at King Qing, and King Qing He bowed his head and said nothing.

Kang Wang hurriedly replied: "Uh, Erchen is the same as Ning Wang."

The official asked again: "Where is King Qing?"

King Qing said: "Huh? My son is also the same as King Ning."

Official: "What does the Fourth Prince think?"

The fourth prince has not yet been crowned king and left the palace. The birth mother of the fourth prince is stupid and dull. called him.

The fourth prince sighed and said: "I... I don't know martial arts, I don't dare to speak out, I don't know."

The official sighed, and continued: "The Ministry of War cooperates with the Ministry of Households to supervise the handling of food, grass and supplies, and quickly prepare for war."

The two ministers said: "Yes, I take orders."

The official glanced at Bai Heyun, and asked, "When do you think Liaoxia will violate the border?"

Bai Heyun replied: "My minister thinks that we can first increase troops on the border and deploy heavy troops to let Liaoxia know that our Great Song Dynasty is prepared and is actively preparing for war. If Liaoxia is not sure, it will not be easy in a short time. Mobilize troops."

The generals all agreed: "It makes sense."

"Yes, General Bai is right."

"That's true. Our Great Song Dynasty has a strong military force. If they don't have the upper hand, they really don't dare to act rashly."

Bai Heyun said again: "As far as I know, Xia's military equipment is not ready yet, Liao's food and grass are not yet fully prepared. It is not very difficult for us to prepare for the war in the Song Dynasty. It can be done in a few days. From this point of view, they intend to seize the opportunity. But the chances of success are slim.”

The official nodded and said: "Well, the secret report of the imperial city is roughly consistent with what General Bai said." He glanced at King Ning, then turned his gaze back to King Kang and King Qing, and asked, "What are the thoughts of King Kang and King Qing? "

Kang Wang felt that his heart was too tired today, so he replied: "My son is the same as General Bai."

King Qing said: "My minister is the same as General Bai."

The official asked again: "Where is the fourth prince?"

The fourth prince said: "I don't know."

The official asked: "Which general do you think is appropriate to go to the border to strengthen defense?"

Hu Hang, the current patriarch of the country, said: "The veteran thinks that Duke Wu is quite familiar with the situation on the Liao-Xia border, so it is most appropriate for Duke Wu to go."

The official narrowed his eyes and asked, "What does the Fourth Prince think of General Hu's words?"

The fourth prince said: "I don't know."

The official asked again: "Kang Wang Qing?"

Kang Wang sighed: "I don't know."

King Qing replied, "I don't know either."

The official asked again: "King Ning?"

Zhao Anchen replied: "The war has not started yet. Although it is imminent to increase troops to defend the border, it is still very important to guard the capital. The imperial army will be dispatched to be led by other generals. Duke Wu still needs to command most of the imperial army to guard the capital, and we must not tamper with it for the time being."

The official nodded in satisfaction and said, "Who does Duke Wu think is appropriate to lead the army to the border?"

Ming Ruiran replied: "General Sima Han can lead [-] forbidden troops to the Song-Liao border, and General Luo Yuning can lead [-] forbidden troops to the Song-Xia border to join the [-] guards at the Song border."

Sima Han said: "The final general is willing to go!"

The official said: "Okay, then General Sima Han and General Luo Yuning will lead 15 forbidden troops to join the border guards."

Sima Han said: "I take orders!"

Luo Yuning said: "The minister takes orders!"

The official asked again: "General Sima Han is currently in charge of the post of Deputy Commander of the Dianqian Division. He has a heavy responsibility. If he is ordered to leave Beijing, who will take his place temporarily?"

Ming Ruiran replied calmly: "In terms of experience in commanding soldiers, there is one person in Beijing who is still competent, and it is General Guide, Master Hu Hang!"

All of them started whispering in low voices.When Hu Hang heard this, he thought to himself: "The old man has finally survived until today, heh heh."

The official said: "Well, Mr. Hu was a Taiwei, he has rich experience in running the army, and he has no fault. Then, the old general Hu Hang will be temporarily appointed as the deputy commander of the Dianqian Division."

Hu Hang said: "The minister leads the decree!"

The eunuch in front of the palace proclaimed loudly: "Scatter the court!"

Several generals followed Ming Ruiran out of the palace silently, and they were not as aggrieved as before, they were all silent and silent.

After a while, the court dispersed in the morning, and all the ministers came out of the hall, discussing softly.

"Oh, three princes and one prince, they are really hardworking every morning and morning."

"Ah? King Ning is fine, he can still have a discussion, but as long as he doesn't ask questions about his head, he will keep his mouth shut. King Kang and King Qing are even more... oh..."

"Yeah, after so many days, the two princes just kept saying 'same as King Ning', 'same as General Bai', 'don't know'..."

"Well, it's really 'two kings and three axes'."

"The fourth prince is even more wood. I heard that he has been a wood since he was a child, and he will be a big wood when he grows up."

"Yes, the four sons of the official family..."

"Hey! Don't mention it, don't mention it, walls have ears, so I can't talk anymore..."

Bai Heyun and Ming Ruiran have never had a fixed position in the court. They also said that today is east and tomorrow will be west. It depends on what they have conspired with the officials.Although Zhao Anchen didn't participate in his father's conspiracies, his tacit understanding with Bai Heyun's family has reached a level of supernatural power.

As for King Kang and King Qing, the "two kings and three axes" are already well-known in the court, and they are useless at all, and the officials are also very troubled.

☆, the wind and the cloud rises [-]

Ming Xiaoyang hadn't stayed with Zhao Anchen for a while, even if they met in the mansion, they were in a hurry, either Zhao Anchen came back late at night, or had breakfast together, after dinner Zhao Anchen hurried to the morning court, nothing to say talk.Ming Xiaoyang was a little unhappy.

Seeing his son getting more and more pitiful, Bai Heyun thought about finding something for him to do.After calling his son, he talked about the Bai's Trading Company in detail: "You are the young master of the Bai's Trading Company. Today, mother will tell you about the Bai's Trading Company."

Ming Xiaoyang listened to his mother's instruction honestly, and said, "En!"

Bai Heyun: "The Bai's trading company has a five-element structure, and the Huo family is the Jingwei family. There are more than [-] people in the Song Dynasty and more than [-] people outside the country."

Ming Xiaoyang asked in surprise: "How come there are other than Da Song?"

Bai Heyun continued: "The business of the Bai family company is not limited to the Song Dynasty, so it also has strong influence outside the Song Dynasty. The five elements of the Bai family have penetrated outside the Song Dynasty, including Liao and Xia."

Ming Xiaoyang was amazed and looked at his mother in admiration.

Bai Heyun said slowly again: "The Muzhi clan are doctors, and they are all people with superb medical skills. They are in charge of the medical centers and medicine halls in various places of the Bai family, and also guard the secret skills of the Bai family's medicine."

Ming Xiaoyang asked: "Does medicine still have secret techniques? Does my mother know it?"

Bai Heyun replied: "Nianghui, I can only teach you after you become weak. This secret art of medicine requires a calm temperament and a high level of xinxing. You are not yet an adult, and you are not qualified to practice it yet."

Ming Xiaoyang: "Oh..."

Bai Heyun said: "The Water Clan is the secret guard of the Bai Clan. They are engaged in intelligence and espionage, involving business, politics, military and other aspects. The number has reached more than [-]. The Tu Clan is in charge of the Bai Clan's villages, fields, Mountains and other industries. The Jin family is in charge of all businesses and accounts. All members of the Bai family and the Five Elements have the surname Bai, and you must treat them well after you become the head of the family."

Ming Xiaoyang nodded and asked, "How much property and business does mother have? How much money does mother have?"

Bai Heyun smiled and said: "You will know later. Although the members of the Bai clan are all surnamed Bai, almost none of them are blood relatives. They are all poor children and orphans, poor people who were picked up by the Bai clan and brought up in Shanyang Shanjiao. , with excellent aptitude and character, those with a strong will can be assigned to the five elements according to their ability, and only the best among the five elements can serve as the backbone. Those with mediocre aptitudes can still have things to do, and those with some flaws in temperament and quality, Bai's is not embarrassing, and has not made them change. Becoming slaves and being slaves will allow them to live freely like ordinary people. But the Bai clan has strict rules, no matter whether they stay, exile, or return to freedom, the Bai clan's followers are not allowed to be small and treacherous, and they must not have good morals Misdemeanors, otherwise, after being verified by the Bai Clan's secret guards, the Huo Clan's Jingwei will clean up the house."

Ming Xiaoyang listened silently and nodded thoughtfully.

Bai Heyun stared at Ming Xiaoyang and said earnestly: "Bai's training of the Five Elements is very strict, and the information is top secret. What I told you today is also top secret. Don't tell anyone, understand?"

Ming Xiaoyang said: "Yes, mother!" Then he asked in a low voice: "Will Mrs. Bai not make the official family... restless? It is said in the book that a country's sharp weapon cannot be shown to others, so how can it fall safely into human hands? A tree with big roots and deep roots is prone to wind, and if the wind wants to urge it, what should we do?"

Bai Heyun looked at his son, smiled slightly, and said in his heart: "Although Xiaoyang looks silly, he is worthy of being Mingxuan and I's son!"

Bai Heyun said: "Do you still remember what your father taught you? Loyal to the emperor and patriotism, defend our Da Song rivers and mountains, have a clear conscience, and never change until death! The Bai family is the Bai family of the Song Dynasty! The first iron rule of the Bai family business company It is to be loyal to the Song Dynasty. The second iron is wealth | people | security | state. The third is to strengthen the family and industry. All members of the Bai clan should remember, especially the Patriarch of the Bai clan!"

Ming Xiaoyang firmly replied: "Yes! Mother!"

Bai Heyun nodded, and said again: "Your Auntie Huoyuan is the head of the Bai family's Jingwei, and you are the young master of the Bai family. The next Jingwei head has been carefully selected and trained by the Bai family for many years. He is about the same age as you. , will follow you around in the future, named Huo Tong. After a while, you will see him. As soon as Huo Tong arrives, you have to set off for a long trip to inspect and familiarize yourself with the five elements and industries of the Bai family as the young master , the directors will tell you a lot, you have to study hard.”

Ming Xiaoyang replied: "Okay, mother!... Then... can Zhao Yi go with me?"

Bai Heyun sighed: "You have to know, Chen'er is the prince!"

Ming Xiaoyang let out a listless "Oh".Quietly went back to the room.

A few more days later, although Zhao Anchen went to court early every day as usual, the generals in the imperial study were discussing matters recently, and the officials did not ask him to discuss matters or attend.Zhao Anchen left court and returned to Duke Wu's mansion before noon.

Ming Xiaoyang saw that Zhao Anchen came back in broad daylight so rarely, he was full of joy, stepped forward and said, "Zhao Yi! Although I can see you every day, I still feel like I haven't seen you for a long time!"

Zhao Anchen looked at Mingxiao's warm and sunny smiling face, and was in a very good mood. He smiled slightly and said, "Well, it's been a long time. Aunt Yun and Uncle Ming are still discussing matters in the palace and haven't come back. Let's take Mingle out to eat." Bar!"

As soon as Ming Xiaoyang heard that he could go out with Zhao Anchen, he immediately smiled and said, "Okay!"

The three of them went out together and were walking on the street when they ran into an acquaintance---Shen Lingshuang again.She was alone in the street looking around angrily.

Ming Xiaoyang smiled and said: "You are very idle, you can always meet you, who messed with you? I will beat him for you!"

Shen Lingshuang asked: "What are you doing?"

Ming Xiaoyang said: "Food is the most important thing for the people, Jufulou, let's go together?"

Shen Lingshuang chuckled displeasedly: "Hmph, Jufulou is busy today, there is no seat for you, change house! I was kicked out just now, food is the most important thing for people, and I am looking at the good weather!"

Ming Xiaoyang was puzzled and said: "It's not a festival, it's broad daylight, Jufulou is so big, there isn't even a seat? No way?"

Shen Lingshuang sighed: "Well, do you still remember that Hu Huai?"

Ming Xiaoyang said: "Of course I remember, that kind of person is already so scumbag that it is impressive."

Ming Le asked: "Brother, who is it?"

Ming Xiaoyang bowed his head and said, "A grandson, a scumbag."

Shen Lingshuang said: "It's their Hu family who booked the Jufu Tower today and are feasting the officials. I heard that Hu Huai's grandpa, the father-in-law of the state, became the commander of the deputy capital in front of the palace and recommended him to the official department. My grandson has become an eighth-rank Gyeonggi county magistrate, and the grandfather and grandson are celebrating!"

Ming Xiaoyang smiled and said, "Huh? Is this worth celebrating?"

Zhao Anchen narrowed his eyes and remained silent.

Shen Lingshuang said: "I'm hungry, you know what's delicious, please show me the way!"

Ming Xiaoyang said: "The food in the Millennium Tower is also good, but if I meet the head of the country, he will say that the upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked. Grandson is like that, and grandpa is not much better. My parents are still there. The palace is so exhaustingly busy, yet he is here to celebrate?"

Shen Lingshuang said: "Go by yourself, tell me how to get to the Millennium Building?"

Ming Xiaoyang said: "Le'er knows, let Le'er take you there, I'll be there soon, Zhao Yi, let's go."

Zhao Anchen said in a low voice, "I'll be waiting for you in the Millennium Building."

Ming Xiaoyang turned his face to look, and said: "Oh, you are a prince, you must avoid suspicion. Got it!"

Zhao Anchen glanced at Ming Xiaoyang, but said nothing.

Ming Xiaoyang went to Jufulou with his head held high.Ming Le asked: "Brother Ning Wang, you clearly knew that Brother was going to mess around, why didn't you stop him?"

Zhao Anchen said: "It's nothing wrong, let's go."

Ming Le said: "Oh."

At the gate of Jufulou, the servants of the Hu family were receiving invitations. Those who had invitations greeted them with smiles, and those who did not have invitations shouted away.Ming Xiaoyang saw it and stepped forward.

The servant stopped him and shouted: "Where is the child, all the ministers of the court and China are invited to the banquet, do you have an invitation card? If you don't have one, go away!"

Ming Xiaoyang said: "Go away!" He slapped the two of them flying with one palm, and the servant climbed up and chased them. Ming Xiaoyang went up the stairs in three steps and two steps. Above the main hall, he didn't know who was Hu Hang, the head of the state, but look He arrived at Hu Huai who was standing on the side.

Ming Xiaoyang said to Hu Huai with contempt: "Hey! Grandson, where is your grandfather?"

Hu Huai was furious and didn't dare to attack, so he whispered: "It seems that no one invited you?"

Ming Xiaoyang said loudly: "Hey? What's the matter? I'm not welcome. Could it be that you still want to drive me out? Let me see who dares!"

Quite a few people came to Jufulou, after hearing Ming Xiaoyang's yelling, they all quieted down and stretched their necks to look this way.Hu Huai didn't dare to answer, just stood there stupidly.

A man about 50 years old walked over with his eyes wide open, and asked, "What's going on, who is making all the noise?"

Ming Xiaoyang looked back and thought, "It's almost this one." He raised his eyelids and looked at the people who came to the banquet, and said, "I was hungry just now, and I wanted to come to Jufulou for a light meal, but I was caught by the building. The servants stopped and scolded, saying that the civil and military officials are being entertained in the building? Then come up to see, who is the emperor here?"

As soon as everyone heard this, they knew that this person had a difficult background, and they lowered their heads in fright. Many people recognized him as Young Master Ming, so naturally they did not dare to speak out.

Ming Xiaoyang looked at this "righteous old man" and said with a smile: "I am Ming Huan, Ming Xiaoyang, who are you? Your eyes are amazing! Do you want to kill me on the spot?"

When Hu Hang heard that it was this difficult monster, he glared at the servant who was chasing up from the door, and was so frightened that the servant hurried downstairs.Hu Hang immediately put on another face, rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "It's all because they are stupid, they don't know Mount Tai, they stop Mr. Ming, Mr. Ming is a distinguished guest, thanks to Mr. Wu Guogong, I am lucky to be here with Mr. My friends have a lively meal together, I am happy that Mr. Ming can come, please invite Mr. Ming to the table with this old man!" As he spoke, he wanted to induce Ming Xiaoyang to sit down.

Ming Xiaoyang said with a smile: "You are Mr. Hu, the head of the country. It's a pleasure to meet you. A few days ago, your grandson even skinned me. I really don't have the guts to eat your meal." He picked up the table beside him He poured himself a glass of wine, looked at the "Civil and Military Officials", and said: "The scene is so grand, the upstairs and downstairs are full, admiration! Although I don't know what Mr. Hu is celebrating, since everyone If you're so happy, then I'll congratulate you too, and I'll toast you!" After speaking, he raised his head and drank it down.

Ming Xiaoyang looked around again, and said with a smile: "It seems that there are no empty seats. Since there is no place for me, I won't bother you. Be smart. Let's go to another place to eat. I'll take my leave now, and I have to go back and ask Ask my father when he started to have presbyopia, ha ha." Ming Xiaoyang shook his head with his hands behind his back, turned and walked outside.

Hu Hang said with a smile: "Master Ming is so funny, there is no one else's seat, but there must be a seat for Mr. Ming..." Before he finished speaking, Ming Xiaoyang walked away without looking back.

The scene was silent and the atmosphere was very awkward.

Hu Hang quickly laughed and said: "Come on, come on, everyone, go on, have fun, everyone will not go home until drunk!"

The "Civil and Military Officials" all raised their glasses cheekily again.

Hu Hang's eyes darkened, and he said in his heart: "Little brat, let's see how many days you can dance!"

Ming Xiaoyang came out of Jufulou, thinking: "Seeing you today, the old and the young are really not good things. There are so many courtiers gathered in Jufulou, I'm afraid it's not an easy matter."

Ming Xiaoyang has a good memory and quick response, in just a few words, he went upstairs and downstairs, saw clearly inside and out, and he knew everything in and out, so he didn't bother to talk nonsense.

In the Millennium Building, Shen Lingshuang asked Ming Xiaoyang: "Why, you were kicked out too?"

Ming Xiaoyang smiled: "Heh, who dares to chase me away?"

Ming Xiaoyang said: "I'm starving to death, eat quickly." He is quite obsessed with eating and drinking.

Ming Xiaoyang said while eating: "My mother said that she and your father are old friends, and you are here to manage affairs in Bianjing. What does your family do?"

Shen Lingshuang said: "Xuan Yuxuan, do you know?"

Ming Le interjected: "Of course I know, there are also many families in the capital, and they are big families engaged in jade carving and jewelry business!"

Ming Xiaoyang exclaimed: "Xuan Yuxuan belongs to your family? I heard from my mother that your family has more than a thousand shops, which is amazing! By the way, what do you mean by saying that my fire unicorn came from your father?" ? This is my birth gift from Aunt Jing, from childhood to adulthood!"

Shen Lingshuang replied: "You are beautiful. My father is a unparalleled jade carver. He only carves one piece every three years, and yours is one of them! How many princes and nobles are hard to find, Aunt Jing you said It's really amazing that my father would agree."

Ming Xiaoyang smiled and said: "My Aunt Jing is his mother." He glanced at Zhao Anchen.

Shen Lingshuang was startled, and asked, "Is the surname Mu?"

Ming Xiaoyang said: "Exactly."

Shen Lingshuang was full of understanding, and said: "No wonder, then I should call Aunt Jing, your mother, Aunt Jing, my father, and the official family are old friends who have known each other since childhood."

Ming Xiaoyang's eyes widened: "Oh? Has your father also come to Bianjing?"

Shen Lingshuang said: "No, my father usually doesn't leave Yangzhou."

Ming smiled positively: "Haha, we are really destined for each other. We have never met before, but you beat us again and again."

Shen Lingshuang smiled and said: "Well, indeed. I was angry when I saw you at the time, but I didn't have time to find out that you are quite handsome!"

Ming Xiaoyang immediately said smugly: "Of course! I am famously handsome, only you, after looking at it several times, only found out!"

Zhao Anchen's face became more and more cool, and Ming Le said: "Sister Shen looks like a fairy, but unfortunately her eyes are not very good, how can you see my brother Jun? Obviously it is Ning Wang's brother Juncai! I think my brother is handsome! It's pretty ordinary."

Ming Xiaoyang said unconvinced: "Zhao Yi is the most beautiful person I've ever seen, it's true, but I'm pretty good too, how can I be ordinary? Le'er, you are too young to look at beauty and ugliness."

"Well, King Ning is very handsome, but I think your brother is even more handsome." Shen Lingshuang held the chopsticks in one hand and rested her cheek in the other, and looked at Ming Xiaoyang, who lowered his head and ate fiercely, with a smile in his eyes.

Ming Xiaoyang looked at Shen Ningshuang, and said sincerely: "Le'er is right, you really don't have good eyesight."

Zhao Anchen's hand holding the teacup froze slightly, brought it to his mouth lightly, took a sip, and inadvertently hooked the corner of his mouth.

☆, border

Full of wine and food, end the game.The three of them strolled for a while and returned home.

Ming Le bounced and went to play by himself. Ming Xiaoyang hadn't posted to Zhao Anchen for a long time, so he had to go to the study to post a copy. He dragged a chair and sat beside Zhao Anchen and said, "Today I'm going to Jufulou, and I'm sitting downstairs. There are more than a hundred people who look like lieutenant generals, but they don't look like the imperial army. The upstairs seems to be all civil servants, probably no less than the people downstairs. In terms of the character of the Hu family, this is a bit unbelievable. Huai can even get a civil service, huh."

Zhao Anchen: "There is a problem with the Ministry of Officials."

Ming Xiaoyang chuckled: "Officials? Why do I feel that there are problems everywhere?"

Zhao Anchen turned his head sideways, looked at Ming Xiaoyang and smiled slightly: "You are right."

Ming Xiaoyang panicked for a moment, turned his eyes away, and said in his heart: "I have looked at this face for so long, not only did I not get tired of looking at it, why is it getting better and better? You evildoer." Ming Xiaoyang suddenly changed the subject bluntly, tentatively Asked softly: "Zhao Yi, didn't you say you want to get married? When?"

Zhao Anchen said: "At least not in a few years."

Ming Xiaoyang was in a good mood when he heard that, he put his arms around Zhao Anchen's neck, and said excitedly: "I told you, Zhao Yi, you wouldn't leave me behind so dishonestly to get married!"

Zhao Anchen: "..."

Ming Le said through the window again: "Brother, what are you doing? Why are you hugging so tightly? You don't want to kiss Brother Ning, do you? You really are getting more and more disgusting..."

Zhao Anchen turned his head sideways, face to face with Ming Xiaoyang, close enough to kiss, and chuckled softly: "Heh."

Like an electric shock, Ming Xiaoyang let go of his hand suddenly, sat down, and shouted at Ming Le: "Le'er! I'm your brother, what a disgusting thing! Go away, go away!" and waved at Mingle.

Ming Le curled her lips, leaving a look of contempt in her eyes, and walked away slowly.

Ming Xiaoyang sat on the chair and was embarrassed alone for a while, but Zhao Anchen looked at Ming Xiaoyang without any embarrassment, the corners of his mouth became more and more curved.

Ming Xiaoyang glanced at him, and said: "You are still laughing, you are endless, what are you laughing..." The more he spoke, the lower his voice.He turned his head away, looked into the distance, and did not leave the chair.Then he said nonchalantly: "The white cat in Nuanyuan, I named it Wangyue."

Zhao Anchen said: "Yes."

Ming Xiaoyang muttered: "Zhao Yi, I may have to travel far away in a few days, and I won't be able to play with you anymore. It would be great if you weren't the prince, and you could go with me."

Zhao Anchen asked: "Where are you going?"

Ming Xiaoyang said: "Father said that after I am the general, Uncle Sima Han will go to the border to reinforce the defense in a few days, and let me follow to see the border situation in Song Dynasty. Go and see Bai's Trading Company. Anyway, you won't see me for a long time."

Zhao Anchen said calmly, "Yes."

Ming Xiaoyang blinked and said, "That's it? Is there nothing else?"

Zhao Anchen looked at him and asked, "What else?"

Ming Xiaoyang said unhappily: "You don't have any regrets, don't you want to give up? Just say yes?"

Zhao Anchen looked at him quietly: "..."

Ming Xiaoyang looked at him for a moment, then waved his hands and said, "Oh...forget it. I can't bear to part with you. What a waste of emotion."

Zhao Anchen said softly, "Come back early."

Ming Xiaoyang said helplessly: "Understood, where else can I go if I don't come back."

Imperial study room

Zhao Anchen said: "Father! I want to inspect the border!"

Official: "No!"

Palace of Tranquility

Zhao Anchen: "Mom! I want to inspect the border!"

Concubine Jing: "Why don't you ask your father?"

Zhao Anchen: "I asked, but no."

Concubine Jing: "Then why are you asking me?"

Zhao Anchen said: "Father won't allow it, so I came to ask mother."

Concubine Jing was silent for a while, and said: "Mother knows, let me discuss it with your father."

With a smile in Zhao Anchen's eyes, he said, "Thank you, mother."

Zhao Anchen returned to Duke Wu's mansion full of expectations, and as soon as he entered the door, he saw Ming Xiaoyang wearing a white battle robe and silver armor, practicing a big sword in the courtyard.Seeing Zhao Anchen come back, he asked: "How is it? Zhao Yi, look at me quickly, is this general handsome and handsome? Hahaha!"

Zhao Anchen looked at it for a while, then went back to the study silently.

Into the night, Jingxi Palace

Concubine Jing: "Is there a war at the border?"

The official said: "No."

Concubine Jing: "Then Chen'er is going to inspect the border, why don't you allow it?"

The official said: "Chen'er is the foundation of the Great Song Dynasty. If there is a mistake after going to the border, what will the Great Song do!"

Concubine Jing said slowly: "Chen'er has never been out of the capital since he was a child. Although he is extremely intelligent, he lacks experience. You and I both know that you can't grow without experiencing many things. There is no need for things in this world."
