Tome of Troubled Times Chapter 803: Family affairs, state affairs, and world affairs

Chapter 803 Family affairs, state affairs, and world affairs

Xia Chichi looked at Yue Hongling with some horror.

From her limited understanding of Yue Hongling, it was hard to imagine that this woman would discuss topics such as children with others, and also want to be a godmother... to herself.

Looking at Zhao Changhe secretly from the corner of his eye, Zhao Changhe was smiling, as if it was normal to him.

"What are you doing leaning over there?" Zhao Changhe waved: "Come and hang out together."

"It's rare for you and Chi Chi to get along now. If you hang out more, I won't interfere too much, lest Chi Chi feel like a big lantern is standing around saying that I don't know how to be a good person." Yue Hongling smiled naturally: "I If you have some time, you should read more of the White Tiger Classics. As for the so-called sharing of dual cultivation... If it is really necessary, let’s talk about it. I don’t think it is necessary. After all, the White Tiger Classics of the Four Symbols Sect are not advanced for today.”

Xia Chichi’s head tilted.

She actually said, "I'll talk to you if you really need to," and didn't resist.

Yue Hongling couldn't help but laugh when she saw His Majesty's cute way of tilting his head. He blinked and left: "It seems that it is necessary for Your Majesty and I to get to know each other better. What is the relationship between you and me about each other?" The understanding seems to stop at one label..."

"What does she mean?"

Zhao Changhe laughed dumbly, took Xia Chichi's hand and continued walking towards the garden: "Okay, after being the emperor for so long, it's still like holding a piano."

Xia Chichi: "...I suspect you are scolding me."

Zhao Changhe finally laughed out loud.

Xia Chichi tilted her head and looked at him: "You like that I have the majesty of an emperor, and then it's more fun for you to play, right? It's best not to say 'I', but say 'I' every word."

"It's not necessary, I just want to show it naturally."

Xia Chichi hummed and looked up at the sky: "Xia Chichi, who shows off naturally, is very ignorant. He will be jealous of you, but he is not as free and easy as Yue Hongling."

Zhao Changhe said: "Then turn over."

"Hey, I suddenly want to ask, is this your first time with Yue Hongling?"

"...Yes."

"First love too?"

"It's you."

Xia Chichi paused and glanced around unconsciously. She saw no one, only the peach blossoms around her, just like her cheeks at this moment.

She bit her lower lip, lowered her head and said, "Where's the first kiss?"

"Is it? 詩!?br/>

"What about the first time you did it?"

"It's you."

The little demon queen's expression was bright, and then a little weird, because she deduced and found that if it weren't for her insistence on joining the Four Symbols Cult, all of Zhao Changhe's first times would have been hers, and it was still possible. Will last forever.

Zhao Changhe felt something else from Xia Chichi's questions: "Chichi, do you want to go out in the world? The palace has been holding back for too long?"

"...Hmm." It feels like a cage. But succession is my own choice, and nothing else matters. People have to make choices after all."

Zhao Changhe said: "There will be a day when Your Majesty will need to personally conquer."

Xia Chichi's eyes were still shining: "Really?"

"You are an indispensable part of our rehearsal of the Four Elephant Formation. Do you think we are rehearsing the formation just to fight in the palace?"

"Since you have studied the power of cause and effect, can't you tell when that will be?"

"Uh...my cause and effect research is not at this level." Zhao Changhe smiled and said: "But I know when you can leave the world."

"When?"

"Now."

Xia Chichi was stunned for a moment, and just as he was about to speak, he suddenly felt the pull of Zhao Changhe on his hand, and was immediately held in his arms. The next moment, the world was spinning, and when he appeared again, it was already a different world.

I was in the Royal Garden of the Imperial Palace just now, surrounded by peach trees. At this time, the peach blossoms were in full bloom, and it was very beautiful. But in a blink of an eye, we were already on the mountain road, surrounded by all kinds of wild trees that no one had pruned, lush and green.

Xia Chichi blinked and teleported? How far did this move?

The surrounding scenery seems familiar, but it seems that I have never seen it before... Xia Chichi scratched his head strangely.

"Oh...where did the young master come from? They came to Beimang together as a couple for an outing." Voices suddenly came from above, and soon someone jumped down from above and blocked the mountain road.

Beimang? Zhao Changhe's current teleportation can indeed achieve such a distance... and he also brings people with him.

Xia Chichi finally understood why she felt familiar but felt like she had never seen him before.

I was once assigned to be in charge of robbery, and I was responsible for this area, but I didn't open it because it was winter at that time. I have never seen late spring in Beimang, so the scenery in spring is naturally very different from that in winter.

No, the two of us were robbed by Beimang bandits on the mountain road in Beimang?

"Are you two mute? Or are you scared out of your wits?" The bandits raised their knives and gathered around with grim smiles: "At first glance, they are young ladies from rich families. Take out the valuables on your body and play with your brothers... …”

Before he finished speaking, he saw the girl who had just been cowering in the man's arms in fear and confusion stood up straight, with extremely excited light flashing in her eyes. Looking at the man again, he is always smiling, with doting eyes.

The girl was very happy: "You robbed us?"

Robber: "?"

What are you happy about?

Xia Chichi walked over with his hands behind his back, and the bandits subconsciously took half a step back. Then they felt that their behavior was inexplicable, and they reluctantly stopped.

It’s really strange, how come everyone is a little frightened when facing two young men and women. Obviously neither of them makes people feel like masters. This girl is quite cute...

Xia Chichi stood straight in front of the leader, stretched his neck and took a look, with some disgust on his face: "This bandit's appearance is getting worse every generation."

Zhao Changhe laughed behind him.

The comparison was not with him, Zhao Changhe, but with her, Luo Qi.

There is no man in the world who can compare with your beauty.

"Pretend... pretend to be a ghost!" The bandit leader finally couldn't stand it anymore: "Those who know the truth will take all the valuables..."

"Ka!" A delicate hand grabbed his neck, cutting off the second half of his words in his throat.

Xia Chichi smiled: "Hand over all the valuables."

Robber: "?"

No one saw how she made the move. The boss had already been strangled by the neck. With a lift of his seemingly slender and weak hands, the tall and thick man was lifted off the ground. The strangest thing was that the boss struggled and kicked. He couldn't even move his legs, it was just like he was carrying a stuffed animal.

The bandits didn't know that they had met a master. They all shouted and wanted to run, but strangely they found that they couldn't move their legs.

The winding mountain road like a dragon suddenly gave me the illusion of turning into a real dragon. The dragon looked back and formed a desperate situation.

Zhao Changhe tilted his head.

Chichi's hand... She also deliberately showed herself her current ability to control the realm, which was more mysterious than she imagined.

"Give me the money." Xia Chichi smiled and said, "Pay it yourself, be good."

The robbers were crying but without tears, and with trembling hands, they took out bits and pieces of copper coins and silver from their arms: "Hero, hero, please spare your life..."

Xia Chichi smiled and ordered: "Master, collect the money."

Two and a half years after Xia Chi Chi Luocao Beimang, Jiedao opened for the first time.

Zhao Changhe received a round of money and said with a smile: "What next?"

Xia Chichi made a slashing motion, and then sighed: "Send the official...what about the laws we made ourselves..."

"As commanded."

The breeze blew by, and inexplicably there were more than a dozen bandits who had been stabbed at the gate of Beimang County. They didn't know where they came from.

Beimang Houshan Water Pool, Xia Chichi stood by the pool and looked at the water. Her joyful smile was reflected in the water. A pair of men's hands were around her waist. The man's face poked out from her shoulders and they looked down together. .

The water in the pool is still so clear.

Xia Chichi looked at it for a long time, and the smile of the figure in the pond could not go away: "There are still bandits under my rule... I should feel embarrassed, but I can't deceive myself with my happy feeling. ”

Zhao Changhe kissed the side of her face gently: "Because you are a little witch."

"Long River..."

"Huh?"

"Why are you so good now..."

"Good thing or bad thing?"

"It's a good thing." Xia Chichi turned her head slightly and kissed him on the corner of his lips: "As a little witch, I don't want my husband to be a simpleton who doesn't understand the charm. He was a little too stupid before."

"It's all just an act. He's a bad guy in the first place." Zhao Changhe kissed her earlobe: "Just like... you were standing here taking off your clothes, and I peeked."

"You..."

"Should I let you see it?"

"Let..." Xia Chichi bit her lower lip, and her eyes gradually became as charming as silk: "Now that I have seen it, does this hand just wrap around the waist, and not change places?"

The hands around the waist began to interlace, one upward and the other downward.

The downward one stopped somewhere, and a man murmured in his ear: "You want me to see the little white tiger..."

The memory and **** belonging to the little demon girl were completely ignited from beginning to end: "Changhe, I want...the rougher the better..."

…………

"Where is your Majesty?"

Tang Wanzhuang woke up from trance and turned around to see Yue Hongling sitting on the side holding the White Tiger Book. From time to time, she asked Sanniang and Huangfuqing some terms specific to the Four Elephants Religion. The two Four Elephants Venerables answered while talking to themselves. Look through other classics to see if there is anything related to time and space.

Everyone seemed to be awake, but Zhao Changhe and Xia Chichi were nowhere to be seen.

"I was walking around the Imperial Garden just now." Yue Hongling flipped through the classics and replied casually: "It's not easy for Your Majesty. With her temperament, she is trapped in the palace every day. It's depressing just thinking about it. The peach blossoms just happened to be just right, let her and Please visit Changhe more often.”

Tang Wanzhuang said "Hmm": "Your Majesty's temperament is indeed... Did she take Changhe out to play?"

Yue Hongling thought for a moment and smiled: "Yes when I first went out, but not necessarily later."

Sanniang Huangfuqing glanced at her, then looked at each other, understanding each other tacitly.

The little man today is so good at it. If he had been as considerate as he is now, I am afraid that everyone would have fallen twice as early. I wonder if the level of progress now will be useful against those in Jiuyou Piaomiao...

Tang Wanzhuang didn't care who pulled whom out, she just wanted to confirm the situation. After all, she is the prime minister now. If the emperor and the prime minister both miss work, there will be trouble. Since the emperor was on vacation with the man, she naturally had to go to work: "Then let them rest more, and I will handle some official business."

As the emperor and prime minister with the strangest relationship in history, Tang Wanzhuang also has the most unique privilege-when Xia Chichi needs retreat or other important matters, Tang Wanzhuang can go directly to the imperial study to replace Xia Chichi. Lately, he approved the Zhezi and discussed matters with other important ministers.

These days, there is a war in the north of Saibei, and there are other important events in Beijing. The most important one is the long-prepared spring of the first imperial examination. Tens of thousands of students gathered in Beijing to prepare for the exam. If it weren't for the war, I would actually have taken the exam earlier.

No matter how martial arts is in this world, it is not enough to be able to fight alone. Governing the world and developing people's livelihood is a university study, which is what Cui Wenzi calls the study of economics and economics. In the early years, Tang Wanzhuang himself went to Beijing to study, so That's why. In the selection of talents in this area, we will not mention the previous monopoly system of aristocratic families. The first imperial examination open to everyone in the world can be said to be a key node in the historical process, and its importance is no less than that of the Northern Expedition.

Tang Wanzhuang felt very solemn and quickly went to the imperial study room, wanting to see the new information and to call all the ministries to finalize all issues.

As a result, when I arrived at the door of the Imperial Study Room, I lost all sense of solemnity.

As a strong person in the Yujing Realm, even in a room with good soundproofing, I can still hear the voice inside. When it comes from His Majesty, the voice is a little hoarse.

Tang Wanzhuang was a little helpless. Didn't she say she was visiting the Royal Garden? It was not in vain that she went back to the house...

Just as he was about to leave, he heard the voices inside begin to subside.

Is it done?

The man's voice is saying: "As you said before, being paralyzed every time is not a good experience, but you ask for it again and again, and it's not enough even after several times..."

Tang Wanzhuang: "..."

His Majesty's voice said: "But I am so happy today... It can be said that the happiest time since taking the throne is today. Even the good news in Saibei is not as happy as today. I feel like I would be willing to die."

Tang Wanzhuang: "..."

"Okay, okay, your voice feels a little hoarse, take a good rest."

"I won't be able to rest for long. I studied formations and achieved breakthroughs before, and I went out to play for so long today... There are still state affairs to do. After all, you must remember your current responsibilities."

"The barbarians have decided, are there any important state affairs now?"

"Yes, for example, overseas trade, grain pilot projects, land distribution... Well, we are discussing whether to ban the sale of land."

"Well...I've heard of this, but I don't know if it's true or not. Unfortunately, I slept in class and gave a lot of things back to the teacher. I know that I am a shameful person who traveled through time."

"What is time travel... In class, didn't Teacher Sun always praise you?"

Zhao Changhe couldn’t laugh or cry: “Do you think this kind of thing might have been taught by Lao Sun?”

"Well...Actually, this cannot be learned in class. It requires very specific investigation and deduction, and different details will be made according to different situations. For example, our current imperial examinations and the imperial examinations that appeared in ancient records It’s not necessarily the same thing.”

"The imperial examination has begun?"

"Well, the exam will start in a few days, but it's a pity that you can't preside over it. Originally, we planned that you would be the main exam taker in the first session, and all the students would join your class."

"Don't you consider limiting this disguised template of disciples and former officials?"

"It's hard to eliminate it. There will always be various variants. I have talked with your evening makeup before, but I didn't come to any conclusion, so I said that I would just leave it to you." Xia Chichi sighed. : "Okay, okay, I'm talking about these worries and I can't lie down any longer... Just rest, I'll have Xuan Wanzhuang come over to discuss it."

Tang Wanzhuang was always listening quietly outside the door, with a smile on her lips unconsciously.

This feeling is so comfortable, just like chatting about family matters.

After hearing the last sentence, she didn't wait for anyone to announce, pushed the door directly in, and quickly closed the door without any smoke.

The little man and woman inside were naked and leaning on the bedside, blinking at her coming in, looking a little confused.

Tang Wanzhuang smiled and said: "I thought you knew I was outside... I didn't expect that after practicing so much, I would still be so undefended."

"That... I trusted the external formation and guards a little too much. I didn't expect it to be an insider."

"Okay, okay, I'm the mole." Tang Wanzhuang sat next to Zhao Changhe naturally and twisted out a wet wipe: "Clean up, don't always use the Book of Heaven, at least be respectful."

Zhao Changhe: "..."

Seeing him in a daze, Tang Wanzhuang smiled and said, "Do you want me to clean up?"

"Uh, I don't mean that..."

Tang Wanzhuang cleaned it up for him naturally, her pretty face flushed slightly, but she still said calmly: "It's never possible to get rid of all the templates of disciples and former officials. Let's do it step by step. It's better now than before. It's recommended. Oh, by the way, this martial arts competition also started at the same time, and we have secretly recruited several of them to the Demon Suppression Division. They are the rookies you mentioned before. In the eyes of the world, as long as you know they are. If you recommend them, then they are all your disciples. Whether you recognize it or not, the people’s hearts are there.”

Zhao Changhe turned his head and looked at this kind of intellectual assistant reporting work while taking care of personal matters, and he felt extremely weird in his heart.

Xia Chichi stared blankly for a long time before saying sourly: "Stop wiping it. Just wiping it on a small area for so long will make your skin almost bald. In fact, it's not necessary. I think his Eyes, I'm afraid you'll have to clean up your own again later..."
