Xiao Yi narrowed his peach blossom eyes slightly and responded casually.
The two princes had something they wanted in mind, so everything they did was based on this. How could they outwit Xiaobai, who was as cunning as a fox...
Sometimes, he really sympathized with them for meeting Xiaobai at the wrong time.
The corner of Xiao Yi's mouth curved into a gloating smile, and then he raised his head and drank all the tea in the cup.
Suddenly, Xiao Hui's joyful eagle call came from outside the hall. Xiao Yi looked around and saw two eagles more than ten feet away, circling around a pink figure walking towards this side, as if they were saying hello to her. of.
It’s A Yue! Xiao Yi's eyes suddenly lit up, he stood up and stepped forward to greet Nangong Yue. When Nangong Yue walked into the hall, Xiao Yi happened to come close and took her hand.
Nangong Yue smiled slightly at Xiao Yi and said: "Ayi, I brought some coconut juice and mango coconut juice cake. You can try it. This coconut juice is as clear as water and as sweet as honey. Use it in summer to quench your thirst. It can dispel heat, dispel wind and poison, replenish qi and moisturize the skin..."
Listening to her serious talk about the benefits of coconut water, Xiao Yi really wanted to kiss her on the face, with a smile in his eyes. From his point of view, it is only important that the coconut milk tastes good and delicious, and everything else is just trivial matters.
His little girl is really the child of a scholar. She is so cute with her little scholar look. Their daughter should be so cute in the future!
Xiao Yi couldn't help but think about it.
While Nangong Yue was talking, Baihui and Queer, who were following her, walked to a table on one side, opened the food box, and took out a few small dishes of snacks and coconut juice, and chilled mango coconut. The juice cake and coconut juice are still slightly cool. The pieces of mango and coconut juice cake are made into exquisite flower shapes. The milky white coconut juice cake is sandwiched with golden mango flesh. The color is bright. Just look at it like this. It makes people move their index fingers.
Baihui started to serve snacks to the masters. At this moment, Xiao Hui's chirping came again. The next moment, he spread his wings and rushed through the water curtain on one side, rushed straight into the hall, and finally landed on On the table in front of Guan Yubai.
It was soaked all over. After falling, it spread its wings and shook its gray feathers. Countless water droplets sprayed out, splashing in all directions, on the table, into the teacup, and on the ground. On the plate of mango and coconut milk cake that was just brought out...
Bai Hui and Que'er's expressions froze for a moment. Fortunately, they brought several plates of snacks today. Que'er glared at Xiao Hui, this Xiao Hui was really spoiled by the prince, and was as spoiled and spoiled as the prince.
Looking at Xiao Hui who looked like a drowned rat, Guan Yubai couldn't help but laugh. At this moment, Gray Eagle's feathers were wet. Although most of the water on his body was shaken off, there were still water droplets dripping down. It seemed that He was wilting and was no longer as strong and majestic as usual.
Xiaosi on the side sneered unceremoniously, his cold face looked a little more lively, and his mocking eyes seemed to say, no wonder others say that a phoenix in trouble is worse than a chicken!
The next moment, a white eagle also spread its wings and flew in through the water curtain. Seeing everyone in the hall, it screamed excitedly, then flew towards a high-backed chair next to Xiaosi, and landed on it. on the armrest of the chair.
The corner of Xiaosi's mouth stiffened and he immediately avoided Han Yu. Hanyu shook his wet feathers and looked at Xiaosi with a puzzled face, not understanding why he was avoiding her.
"Haha——"
Xiao Yi laughed unceremoniously, leaning forward and backward with laughter. Even Nangong Yue and Guan Yubai couldn't help laughing, and the hall was filled with a cheerful atmosphere.
The two eagles had no idea why they were laughing. They flapped their wings and played in circles in the hall, emitting cheerful eagle cries from time to time, intertwined with laughter and the sound of water. At the same time, the two maids served snacks to the masters again. This time, Baihui stared at Xiao Hui with vigilance, which made the magpie on the side couldn't help but snicker.
After the three of them sat down and ate a few snacks, the two eagles felt bored and flew out through the water curtain. The water flow fell on them and splashed again, leaving a mess next to the water curtain. .
Nangong Yue shook her head with a smile, looked around and said: "Ayi, this Qingzhuo Palace is indeed worthy of its name, it is very cool."
The two of them exchanged a look of understanding, and then Xiao Yi said to Guan Yubai: "Xiao Bai, I think this place is good, and Han Yu likes it too. Why don't you just stay here?"
In the past few days, the weather in Nanliang has been getting hotter and hotter. It is almost comparable to the hottest period in southern Xinjiang. It seems that the weather will only get hotter. Guan Yubai is weak and can neither bear the cold nor endure the heat. , Xiao Yi and Nangong Yue were both worried that he would not be able to bear it if the weather got hotter, so they hoped that Guan Yubai would move here from Sun Yao Palace.
"Then I would rather obey orders than be respectful."
Guan Yubai smiled slightly and agreed. Even in such a hot weather, his fair skin was still dry, without a drop of sweat, and as warm as jade.
Of course he knew that Xiao Yi made this suggestion considering his physical weakness, so he was not polite to him.
As long as he understands many things in his heart.
As for Xiao Yi, she has already begun to consider whether they should build a similar house in Bixiaotang when they return to Luoyue City. A Yue has always been afraid of heat, and the summer in southern Xinjiang is too hot for her after all. .
He had to quietly find craftsmen in Nanliang and give A Yue a surprise.
Xiao Yi pondered secretly in his heart.
At this time, the sound of rapid footsteps came from outside the palace. Although it was not clear when mixed with the sound of water, Xiao Yi and Xiao Si, who had sharp ears, had already followed the sound and looked over.
A young soldier walked hurriedly towards Qingzhuo Hall, with a strange look on his face and the corners of his mouth raised high, as if something great and good had happened.
"Your Majesty, Lord Marquis," he strode to the center of the hall, clasped his fists in front of Xiao Yi and Guan Yubai and said, "Xilan Kingdom and Dachi Kingdom just sent envoys to deliver peace letters."
Xilan Kingdom and Dachi Kingdom are two small countries in the southwest of Nanliang. They are far from Nanliang in terms of territory and national strength. However, the two countries were frightened by the reputation of the Southern Xinjiang Army and took the initiative to send peace wars. The book is really good news for the Southern Xinjiang Army to boost military morale!
Xiao Yi took two pieces of paper and a book from the hands of the soldier. The words written on the books were stiff and awkward, like those written by a three-year-old child, but they were written in Dayu language, which shows the surrender of the two countries.
Xiao Yi glanced at both papers and books casually and handed them to Guan Yubai.
Both the two pieces of paper are written in a Japanese style that shows weakness. At first glance, they appear to be similar in writing, but there are essential differences.
Xilan Kingdom said that it was willing to submit to the crown prince of Zhennan.
Da Chiguo said he was willing to submit to Dayu.
Guan Yubai looked at it, raised the corners of his mouth, and put the two papers and books on the table with a meaningful smile in his eyes.
Xiao Yi rested his right elbow lazily on the armrest of the chair, supported his cheek with his fist, and said: "His Majesty He Shuben of Xilan Kingdom has accepted it, and passed on the order to entertain the envoys. As for Dachi Kingdom ," Xiao Yi's mouth curved, "Send it back as you came, and let the envoy think carefully about how to write this and the book!"
Speaking of what happened later, Xiao Yi's tone revealed a fierceness, like a sharp arrow shooting out rapidly.
Crash...
There was silence in the hall for a moment, and the clear sound of falling water outside the hall seemed to be louder. The soldier's face was stern, and he hurriedly clasped his fists and accepted the order: "Yes, Your Majesty." His voice was loud and full of energy.
He took the Da Chi Kingdom's letter and left quickly.
Looking at the heroic and flying figure of the soldier, Guan Yubai's smile deepened and he looked at Xiao Yi.
Today there are two small countries, Xilan Kingdom and Dachi Kingdom. Next, other countries will surely express their opinions...
The dark eyes of both men were shining brightly, shining like stars in the dark night.
But in just a few days, Nanliang has set off one wave after another. Since the capture of Nanliang, both Xiao Yi and Guan Yubai knew that the situation in Nanliang was as peaceful as that seemingly peaceful one. On the sea surface, in fact, there have always been undercurrents under the sea surface. It was only recently that these hidden crises were exposed bit by bit... Only after they eradicated them one by one could Nanliang be able to break through and usher in a new life.
Besides, they didn’t get nothing. At any rate, they also harvested some small fish and shrimps that were washed ashore by the waves.
Thinking about it, Xiao Yi gave a sly smile like a profiteer and said: "Xiao Bai, the weapons and horses that were just collected from the remnants of Nanliang looked good to me, so I collected them for Youqi Camp. Xiao Bai. Bai, do you think those Nanliang people knew that we were short of horses and money, so they came to us specifically to 'surrender'?"
There was unabashed schadenfreude in his tone, which made Xiao Si roll his eyes rudely.
The remnants of Nanliang that Xiao Yi mentioned were caught by the father and son from the ancient family.
After all, the father and son of the Nagun family are businessmen, not specially trained spies. Xiao Yi was just a little bit of a trial, and Heragu did all the tricks. Just to spare his life, he was willing to hand over most of the family wealth to southern Xinjiang. military.
You still want to be a hero if you don’t have the ability. What a rare thing for a preschooler to live in!
Xiao Yi thought sarcastically, and the smile on his face became even brighter. It must be said that he was "sincerely" grateful to Helagu.
After getting the news about the remnants of Nanliang from Helagu, Xiao Yi immediately sent troops to encircle and suppress them, and achieved great results. They seized a large number of weapons, military horses, money, etc. left by the former Nanliang royal family for restoration. Now , not only did Youqi camp have new weapons and horses, but his Xuanjia army also had no worries about food for half a year.
It’s true that when you feel sleepy, someone will hand you a pillow!
Guan Yubai was also in a good mood, nodded and said: "With these military horses, each person in Youqi camp can be equipped with three horses."
When the inventory of the horse farms collected from the Gu Na family is completed, there will be more horses to choose from. In just a few steps, the Youqi camp is almost ready. He rebuilt the Youqi camp with his own hands. ……
Guan Yubai clenched his fist subconsciously, and the memories of his past days in Western Xinjiang quickly flashed before his eyes. To this day, Guan Yubai's heart still hurts when he thinks of these things.
He would never let the Southern Xinjiang Army follow in the footsteps of Shangguan's Army. Guan Yu's white and gentle eyes became sharp.
He picked up the teacup beside him and drank tea to calm his mind.
Xiao Yi twisted a piece of mango and coconut milk cake, swallowed it in a few mouthfuls, and asked casually: "Xiao Bai, how are the boys from Youqi Camp?"
At this moment, Guan Yubai had returned to normal and said with a smile: "Hua Chuyu is calm and restrained, good at strategy; Li Deguang has the courage of ten thousand men; Lu Pingyao speaks out, dares to admonish, and fights bravely. Each of these three people It has characteristics. Hua Chuyu has experience in leading troops, but he is not good at socializing. From now on, the Youqi Battalion will be dominated by Hua Chuyu, assisted by Li Deguang and Lu Pingyao, and a few more captains and deputy cavalry officers will be promoted under him..."
Guan Yubai talked eloquently. When he talked about these things, he seemed to be in high spirits and radiant, "Also, Ayi, I plan to call the Xinrui Battalion to Nanliang for some experience. ."
Xiao Yi shrugged nonchalantly: "Xiao Bai, just make up your own mind about these little things." He drank another cup of tea to wash away the sweet taste of the cake left in his mouth.
Nangong Yue on the side did not interrupt from beginning to end, just looked at the two of them with a smile. She was not interested in military affairs. Even if she listened, it would go in one ear and out the other.
Seeing that Xiao Yi's teacup was empty, she went to get the teapot nearby and took the initiative to pour tea for him.
Her fingertips just touched the teapot, and the sharp-eyed Xiao Yi had already seen it, and said diligently: "Ayue, I'll just come."
As soon as he finished speaking, a gray shadow flashed past. The teapot in Nangong Yue's hand had been snatched away by a pair of eagle claws, followed closely by Han Yu...
Even Xiao Yi was stunned for a rare moment, until Nangong Yue's clear and hearty laughter suddenly sounded in the hall. The two eagles seemed to have found a new kind of fun, grabbing the teapot and passing it between the water curtains, from This end flew in and the other end flew out, playfully making the hall wet...
In Nanliang Palace, the atmosphere was light and relaxed.
The same was true in the royal capital after the imperial examination. On the third day after the Hairpin Banquet, when the sky was bright, the morning court began as usual.
The emperor, who was dressed in a bright yellow dragon robe, seemed to be in high spirits after having swept away the irritability of the past few days.
Since the fraud case broke out, the emperor has been under constant pressure from courtiers and students, asking him to deal with the examiners as soon as possible to bring justice to the students all over the world. It was not until after the imperial examination that this heavy mountain that weighed on his heart was finally removed. .
The emperor looked down at the officials in the Jinluan Palace and announced the result of the fraud case with great enthusiasm: "...the imperial examination selects talents, Huang Hetai is the number one scholar, the fraud in the Enke Examination is purely based on rumors and rumors. After the discussion, the chief examiner and deputy examiner were ordered to be acquitted and the officers were reinstated immediately."
Hearing this, many officials breathed a sigh of relief. It is a great blessing for the court that the matter can be settled with this result!
However, some people were still unwilling to give in. Zhu Yushang took a step forward and came out to bow.
What else did he want to say, but the emperor had already said in a deep voice before him: "Zhu Aiqing, do you dare to argue with Jinke Zhuangyuanlang?" The emperor's words of love were extremely sarcastic, and his words were more... It's a warning.
Zhu Yushi's body suddenly became stiff, as if he had been frozen for an instant, and he was dumbfounded.
What happened on the day when the top three men were paraded in the streets has long been spread throughout the royal capital. It was obvious to all that the number one scholar was fighting with the heroes. If one did not have equal talent and learning, he could barely fight with the number one scholar, and he would probably have to face the emperor and all the officials. Losing face in front of him is like stealing the chicken but not losing the rice. How can he gain a foothold in the court in the future? !
Thinking of this, Zhu Yushi's mouth opened and closed, and he could no longer speak.
Why couldn't the other officials see Zhu Yushi's embarrassment? They were secretly amused. One of the officials of medium height stepped forward, bowed to the emperor, and said loudly to Zhu Yushi: "Master Zhu should be Hongdao." A Jinshi in the eighth year, right?" Hongdao is the reign title of the late emperor. "I remember that the question in the spring examination of that year was about the farming system. Lord Zhu may be able to discuss it with Huang Zhuangyuan."
The official's words were full of mockery, and Zhu Yushi's face became even uglier and he was sweating profusely. What he participated in the meeting that year was the farming tax regulations. At the beginning of the founding of a country, The farming system can help the country resettle refugees, reclaim wasteland, restore agriculture, etc. Therefore, in the article he wrote about the farming tax system, he greatly affirmed the farming tax regulations and put forward his own opinions on this basis. He won the second-class Chuanlu, but the shortcomings of the farming system were gradually exposed in just a few years. The farming system had been abolished as early as the Taizu period. Now the other party is bringing up the old story, which is obviously to ridicule his short-sightedness...
Other officials in the court knew that Mr. Jiang usually had no dealings with Zhu Yushi, so making this suggestion at this moment was clearly out of ill intentions and wanted to see Zhu Yushi make a fool of himself.
Zhu Yushi was so angry that his old face turned red. He was ashamed and annoyed, but he could only express stiffly that he had no doubts about Huang Zhuangyuan's talent and learning.
After he finished speaking, a few slight chuckles suddenly sounded in the silent Jinluan Palace, obviously laughing at Zhu Yushi's inconsistency.
This small disturbance was quickly resolved and could not affect the emperor's good mood at all. After a few officials reported some minor matters, the early court ended calmly...
After the emperor issued the decree, Nangong Qin and Li Guyang were immediately released from the prison. The two looked at each other and smiled. It was their great luck to escape intact this time. After the two adults said goodbye to each other, they went back to their homes.
When Nangong Qin was sent back to Nangong Mansion, the officers and soldiers surrounding Nangong Mansion had already retreated. The return of Nangong Qin made the whole family rejoiced. Both the masters and the servants were relieved. With his tone, he knew that the biggest crisis in Nangong Mansion had been passed.
After everyone exchanged a few words, the others dispersed. Nangong Qin went to take a bath and change clothes first to wash away all the bad luck, and then went to his outer study with Nangong Mu and Nangong Sheng.
When the three of them sat down in the study, they all felt a little sad. What happened in the past few days suddenly seemed like a dream.
After Nangong Qin took a sip of tea, he said seriously: "Second brother, Ah Sheng, you have already guessed why the Nangong family encountered such difficulties this time, right?" After this, his wise eyes were stained There are some vicissitudes of life.
Nangong Mu nodded and sighed: "Brother, luckily Huang Zhuangyuan has real talent and learning this time." Otherwise... even Nangong Mu wouldn't dare to think about it.
"Are you lucky?" Nangong Qin smiled bitterly, looked at Nangong Mu and Nangong Sheng and said, "If you say you are lucky, it should be that you are lucky to have Ayi."
Ayi? !
Both Nangong Mu and Nangong Sheng looked surprised. They couldn't understand how the matter could be related to Xiao Yi who was far away in southern Xinjiang. And how could Nangong Qin be related to Xiao Yi when he was imprisoned in the sky prison? Did you get in touch?
Nangong Mu asked aloud: "Brother, what on earth is going on?"
Nangong Qin had no intention of hiding it from them. He received a note from Xiao Yi's order secretly in the sky prison, and he therefore submitted a memorial to the emperor asking the emperor to hold the palace examination as scheduled. As for Nangong Mu and Nangong Sheng naturally knew about the palace examination and what happened after that...
The uncle and nephew looked at each other in confusion. The more they listened, the more shocked they became, and the more they listened, the more complicated their hearts became.
Nangong Mu couldn't help but sigh, Xiao Yi really worked hard for the Nangong family this time. People say that a son-in-law is like a daughter-in-law, and a daughter never married the wrong person.
Perhaps, there is still some fate. Yue'er and Ayi are obviously very different people in terms of origin and temperament, but they have become a pair of gods and gods with the same mind.
Nangong Mu was sighing with emotion when he heard Nangong Sheng asking Nangong Qin impatiently: "Father, now that the matter has been resolved, are you going to bring Brother Heng back?" Thinking of his youngest son who was sent to southern Xinjiang, Nangong Sheng could not help but express his deep longing. Brother Heng was the eldest son and only child of him and his wife. If his life was not at stake, how could he be willing to let his three-year-old child endure the pain of traveling thousands of miles.
He looked at Nangong Qin eagerly. Unexpectedly, Nangong Qin shook his head and said solemnly: "A Sheng, Prince Shun and Prince Gong have suffered a big loss this time. I'm afraid they won't let it go. Brother Heng It will be safer in southern Xinjiang..."
Nangong Mu and Nangong Sheng were shocked again, and their hearts sank. Yes, it is not difficult to understand this truth. The two princes have launched such a big battle, causing uproar in the city and turmoil in the court. How could they stop? !
Nangong Mansion has temporarily avoided disaster, but no one knows what will happen next. We can only wait and see what happens.
Nangong Qin sighed, changed the topic, and said: "Second brother, Ah Sheng, is there anything going on in the house during this time?"
Hearing this, Nangong Mu and Nangong Sheng naturally thought of the same thing, and their expressions were not very good. Nangong Sheng said directly: "Father, the second sister was divorced by the Li family." When he mentioned this matter, he couldn't hide the indignation in his tone. He knew what it meant to know people but not their hearts.
Nangong Qin's eyes were stunned, and his face was as sinking as water.
At this moment, a young man in green clothes came in and said: "The eldest master, the second master, the eldest young master, and the second aunt are here and want to see the eldest master."
The second uncle he mentioned was Li Chengen, who had just abandoned Nangong Yan.
