Chapter 66

In July, the hibiscus flowers are in full bloom, and the pink and purple branches are crowded and crowded. It is really beautiful, but it is the grand scene in the East Palace. The sand and dust outside the Donghua Gate squint, only the outer city wall is large. Gray, a little brighter is still the dark green of those crooked-necked smoked willows.

Zhao Liangyue really felt that the willows in front of him were ugly, comparable to his own handwriting, but he kept silent, and went forward to break off the willow branches and handed them to Han Ting as farewell. Han Ting took it and looked at it, and couldn't help laughing.

"It's really ugly." Zhao Liangyue also laughed, "But the meaning is good."

Xiang Mian who came to see him off at the side heard the words, and laughed for a long time, then said to Zhao Liangyue: "Brother Zhao, Yuan Ting and I are both martial artists, how can we be so delicate? We are laughing together Pile of past events."

Han Ting coughed a few times to remind him, and winked wildly at Xiang Mian.

But Xiang Mian obviously planned to pretend to be blind, and leaned towards Zhao Liangyue, saying: "Brother Zhao also knows that Yuan Ting was a well-behaved child when he was young, everyone loved him, but he actually committed a mess once."

Han Ting: "Hey, don't tell me the embarrassing things about my childhood!"

"What are you afraid of, brother Han is not an outsider, don't worry, I will save face for you." Xiang Mian continued, "It was early spring, children big and small in Beijing met to fly kites in the eastern suburbs of the city, and everyone flew kites. Butterflies and finches, he was lucky, he tied his servant boy Qiupeng to the kite in a whimsical way, and said he would fly it for nine days, but everyone persuaded him not to listen, and it was Master Wei who came and beat him up before he stopped, beat him up The branches were broken from this smoked willow on the spot."

Speaking of this, Xiang Mian took advantage of Han Ting's inattention and lowered his voice, "Yuanting was seven years old at the time, and Mr. Wei just took off his pants and beat his ass."

Zhao Liangyue immediately recalled the scene of a fat little dumpling being caught by Mr. Wei and spanking in front of many children. It was funny, and he could understand that the reason why Han Ting was able to maintain his upright character was probably related to Wei Xinglin's strict and careful teaching is related.

Just as Han Ting threw the package in his hand to Qiu Peng, he turned around and saw the two laughing happily, and hurriedly asked, "Brother Zhao, what did he just say, why are you smiling so happily?"

Zhao Liangyue coughed lightly and said, "I'm not laughing at anything."

Having said that, the two of them kept smiling, especially Xiang Mian, who started to lean forward and backward with laughter.

In fact, it’s not that funny when a child is naughty. It’s just that the people in Kyoto are panicked and the atmosphere is depressing recently. In addition, when parting, people are not grass and trees, and they are always very emotional. It is inevitable that I find it very interesting to mention the youth.

At the end of the laugh, Han Ting already guessed that Xiang Mian not only didn't save face for himself, but even made a complete demeanor to Zhao Liangyue, and immediately became exasperated, and greeted Xiang Mian with his fists.

Soon, the two were fighting in front of the crooked-necked willow.

At first, Xiang Mian just used random moves to deal with him, but seeing that Han Ting was showing no mercy, he became serious and used dozens of moves in a short time.

Xiang Mian clicked his tongue: "It's farewell, it's not good to fight."

Han Ting didn't speak, but snorted, and his moves became faster and more ruthless.

Well, what else can I say?For the evil he has done, he can only stay with him until he calms down.

When Xiang Mian intentionally made a move, he lured him to a corner. Han Ting didn't notice that he was thinking carefully, and just chased and beat him. When he realized it, the two were already in the shade of willows.

Xiang Mian said: "Yuanting, I was wrong."

This is said in a gentle tone, gently and slowly, and has a unique magnetic voice, which is very pleasant to hear.Although Han Ting had heard it many times, every time he heard it, he still fell in love, and most of his anger disappeared immediately.

When Han Ting was stunned for a moment, Xiang Mian pulled Han Ting's hand and kissed it.

At this moment, Han Ting was wrapped in hard armor, only his head and hands were exposed. Those hands were from martial arts practice all the year round, with thick calluses and scars. They were not as white and soft as the real nobleman in Beijing, but Xiang Mian I like it tightly, I like to hold him to write, I like to hold him and walk through many places together, or I hold him and do nothing, sitting quietly together under the eaves in front of the porch, watching the birds chirping in the courtyard, watching The flowers bloom and bloom, and I like it very much.

Han Ting's skin is extremely thin, he quickly pulled out his hand, turned his head to look behind him, and found that Zhao Liangyue was talking to Qiu Peng, and didn't pay attention to this side, so he took a light breath and blamed him in a low voice: "Why is it in public? Are you going to make a move?"

"Yuanting, you're blushing." Xiang Mian looked at Han Ting with a smile, and lightly licked the corner of his mouth as he spoke.

As a result, Han Ting's face turned even redder, and he stared fiercely at the culprit in front of him.

"Brother Han, Brother Xiang, let's stop here for today's discussion, don't delay the time." At this time, Zhao Liangyue came here with a small jar of wine, and said, "And it hasn't been practiced yet, Qiu Chan has already prepared it." alright."

The two immediately put away their hostile but ambiguous state, and smiled warmly at Zhao Liangyue together.

The three men didn't care too much, they directly drank together, but Zhao Liangyue and Xiang Mian drank first, and when it was Han Ting's turn, Han Ting glanced at Xiang Mian and deliberately avoided the side where he was drinking.

Zhao Liangyue sensed that there was something wrong with the atmosphere between the two, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.If you trace its origin carefully, it probably started a long time ago when the two were more intimate than others, and even I felt that it was unnecessary, but it seemed to be different at that time and now.

Seeing Zhao Liangyue, Han Ting looked at him suspiciously, then glared at Xiang Mian, Xiang Mian smiled and said nothing.

In the end, Zhao Liangyue, who has always been generous, ended the embarrassment. He took out a letter from his sleeve and handed it to Han Ting, saying, "Mr. Things have been done long ago, and all of them have been written in this letter."

Han Ting took the letter and put it away, cupped his fists at Zhao Liangyue, and said with a smile: "Well, thank you Brother Zhao, as for Rong Ge, I will come to the door to thank you personally when I come back next time."

Zhao Liangyue saw Han Ting pretending to treat the letter with ease, paused, and said: "Nowadays, the situation in Beijing and China is changing, and you still don't have to do some things yourself."

Han Ting said: "What should be done in this world has always been based on the word loyalty. As for the rest, it is my destiny."

As Han Ting said, he raised the wine jar and drank the last sip of wine, then smashed the wine jar to the ground and got on his horse.

Zhao Liangyue bid farewell to Han Ting: "Take care!"

Han Ting clasped his fists at Zhao Liangyue and nodded, then looked at Xiang Mian who was motionless.

Han Ting clicked his tongue and said, "Why, I hit you a few times to destroy all the friendship, so I can't even talk about seeing you off?"

"I don't know how much I should say." Xiang Mian and Han Ting looked at each other, and said, "Just a little, two letters a month, there is no reward for one more letter, but I can't spare one if I return to Beijing you."

Han Ting's tone was impatient: "I see." He turned the horse's head, couldn't help laughing while carrying Xiang Mian on his back, and headed east with a whip.

After Zhao Liangyue and Xiang Mian watched Han Ting leave, they went back to the city and went to the Household Office.

Xiang Mian watched some teenagers chasing and fighting in the street in the distance, thought of something, and asked, "Why don't you see Youbai today? Didn't he always follow Brother Zhao every step of the way?"

Zhao Liangyue stopped, looked up at the southern sky, and said, "Today is the day to behead Wang Yunming."

The massacre on the border of Maozhou back then has always been a knot in the young Youbai's heart that cannot be solved. Now Youbai can see Wang Yunming subdue the law with his own eyes, and can witness for those people who died unjustly, so that Jiuquan can rest in peace and let him let go , Break away from that bloody and cruel nightmare.

On the day of rest and bathing, the court meeting is allowed to be exempted, and all officials are allowed to cultivate. Although there are officials on duty in the government office, they are idle on this day after all. They thought so, but when they saw Zhao Liangyue stepping into the threshold with his robe in hand, their hearts skipped a beat—as long as this Mr. You Shilang, who can't wait for twelve hours a day to work in the government office, appears, their The days of idleness must be coming to an end.

The two officials were extremely unwilling, but they still got up immediately to salute Zhao Liangyue and wait for orders.

Do they dare to say no, dare to neglect a step?

It would be strange if you dare, unless you want to meet King Yama in person.

Nowadays, no one in the six ministries knows that Zhao Liangyue, the right servant of the household department, is gentle on the surface, but he is vigorous and resolute in his actions, without any sympathy. Three major cases were uncovered in the pile of tigers and wolves, which overthrew the Minister of the Ministry of War and the Hussars Battalion, and changed the situation in the court that had been stalemate for more than ten years. No matter what they finally wanted to do or what their purpose was, they had already stirred up treacherous situations. Pull everyone into this whirlpool.

Seeing that Zhao Liangyue was thoughtful and didn't give any orders immediately, the two officials kept bowing their heads, their minds turned, thinking that only Qiushou was a major event recently, but the emperor's health became more and more worrying. Fainted, so although the autumn hunt is still being prepared, the officials do not report any hope in their hearts.

Could it be that something else happened that caused Zhao Liangyue to come to the government office suddenly on the day of rest?

The two officials looked at each other, and immediately became more trembling.

Zhao Liangyue raised his eyes and glanced at the two officials, and knew what they were nervous about. He raised his chin towards the entrance of the hall, and said, "It's just idle around, there's nothing important, you just need to get back."

I was so free that I transferred to the government office of the household department...

The two officials did not dare to move.

Xiang Mian couldn't stand it anymore, smiled, stepped forward to help one of them, and then got the two officials out.

When Xiang Mian came back, Zhao Liangyue was dealing with the paperwork detained by Chu bandit that day, so Xiang Mian casually took a paperwork and spread it on the table next to him, and began to rest on the chair.

When Zhao Liangyue was not in Beijing, Xiang Mian was able to do things with seven or eight points of energy. Now that Zhao Liangyue came back, he would show his head early every day, and then tease the few new officials transferred by the Ministry of Officials when he was free. Leisurely, it's just a matter of carrying a birdcage into the government office every day as an errand.

Zhao Liangyue processed the paperwork very quickly, and the pile of paperwork accumulated by the Du branch was annotated and sent out in less than half a day.

Xiang Mian seemed to be asleep, Zhao Liangyue paced lightly to the eaves, rubbed his shoulders and neck, and looked at the hallway door.

"Aren't you waiting for Master Chu?" Xiang Mian woke up at some point, "On weekdays, Master Chu would have been looking for you non-stop."

Zhao Liangyue turned around, nodded to him, frowned and said, "Something must have happened."

"Big event?" Xiang Mian touched his chin with his hand, and said, "I'm afraid it has something to do with Yeyuan."

"It should be." Zhao Liangyue called the two officials who were drinking tea outside, and ordered them to bring all the documents that he needed to deal with recently. .

Xiang Mian got up, opened his arms and stretched, said: "It seems that Brother Zhao is planning to spare time to solve new troubles, I can help too."
