Chapter 180 Summoned
This year's winter was not too cold, and apart from being frightened once when the emperor was with him, it was considered a good year.

There are no piles of anti-disaster records, no loyal ministers who worry about the country and the people, enjoying the plum blossom with Concubine An today, and watching Concubine Li dance tomorrow, it is really relaxing.

The emperor was in a happy mood, so much so that when the inner servant brought the memorial, he asked, "Is there anything important?"

The internal servant Zhang Huaide bowed down and saluted, and said with a smile: "It's peaceful today, the prime minister didn't say it's important."

The emperor nodded in satisfaction, and took a look at it casually.

After reading a few copies, it was not about trivial matters, or the performances of praises, the emperor was a little less interested, and waved his hand and said: "Send it back, let them do things cheaply."

"Yes." Zhang Huaide neatly put away the memorial, and when he reached the last one, he let out a "huh" and said, "Your Majesty, this is the memorial of Commander Jiang, do you want to read it?"

The emperor paused: "Jiang Yi?"

"Yes."

The emperor couldn't help but smile.Different from those governors who support soldiers and self-respect, Jiang Yi was raised by him with one hand. He greeted him frequently and sent a lot of tributes. Sometimes the emperor was short of money. If he sent someone to Jiangbei to ask, he would definitely bring back many treasures. .

Since it is Jiang Yi's memorial, let's take a look.

The emperor opened it, and as expected, there was good news at the beginning, telling him that this year's Jiangbei has a bumper harvest. In addition to the tax paid, he also specially prepared a generous annual gift for the emperor.

The emperor nodded while watching.After talking about the annual ceremony, Jiang Yi brought up another piece of news, which was about Dongjiang.

Dongjiang, the emperor pouted.Emperor Gaozu entrusted the Li family to Dongjiang. In the early years, he was still respectful, but later he gradually ignored the court.Every year, only a few tributes are sent, and the congratulatory forms are written in an extremely perfunctory manner.Dongjiang is rich and prosperous, and it has always been where the granary is. Li's holding the emperor's order, he didn't pull out a hair, it's really ignorant.

The emperor didn't like Dongjiang very much, and he wasn't very interested in watching the Li family's affairs, but Jiang Yi mentioned it, so let's take a look.

Seeing this, the emperor became interested.

"The daughter of the Xu family from Nanyuan?" He asked Zhang Huaide, "Have you heard of the Xu family's twin daughters?"

Zhang Huaide said with a smile: "Naturally, I have heard of it. The Xu family's twin sisters are beautiful and beautiful, and there are few people in the world who don't know it."

"Huh? Then why don't I know?"

Zhang Huaide calmly replied: "This is a folk tale, and we have never actually seen it, so how dare we talk about it in front of His Majesty?"

The emperor nodded: "Then you must not know that Miss Xu San is not an ordinary beauty."

Zhang Huaide made a surprised expression.

The emperor released the memorial and said with a smile: "Jiang Qing said that a few months ago, the son of the prince of Dongjiang was assassinated. It happened that Miss Xu went to Dongjiang to see him. Her younger sister, Miss Xu San, shot and killed the bandit. He Hearing this, I was very curious, and asked more carefully, only to find out that Miss Xu San was also responsible for beheading Wu Zijing earlier."

Zhang Huaide was taken aback: "What? Miss Xu San is so fierce?"

"Hey!" The emperor waved his hand, "How can this be called ferocity? The Lion's Roar in the River East is ferocious, and someone like her who kills the enemy herself should be called brave."

"Yes." Zhang Huaide obediently replied, "I still remember that because of this matter, His Majesty ordered Xu Huan to be rewarded. I didn't expect that it was the father who took the honor of his daughter."

The emperor smiled and said, "This is really Xu Huan. Since the meritorious service is done by my daughter, it should be rewarded. Is it possible that I will not give her a reward because of gender differences?"

Zhang Huaide thought for a while and said, "Perhaps Governor Xu is afraid that his daughter will be criticized by others? This is also human nature."

"He just thinks too much." The emperor said, "I hate injustice the most, and whoever deserves it. If his daughter has made meritorious service, then she should be rewarded."

"Your Majesty is wise," Zhang Huaide complimented, and asked tentatively, "Then Your Majesty will make another decree?"

The emperor waved his hand: "If there is another decree, they will not be allowed to go to Beijing to thank you? How about summoning them directly, I just happened to see what kind of strange woman this Miss Xu San is. She is as beautiful as a flower and also extraordinary in courage."

"Yes." Zhang Huaide stepped back.

The next day, an urgent imperial decree was sent to Nanyuan.

……

"Sir, it's time to get up."

A voice came from her ear, and Yan Ling opened her eyes.Seeing the unfamiliar roof, it took him a while to remember where he was.

Get up and look outside, it's still dark.

In winter, it dawned late and he had to go to Yingmao, so he had to get up and practice half an hour earlier every day.

While washing up, he listened to Yanji's thoughts: "Actually, it's okay for you to wake up late, anyway, Qianniuwei and those people have never been on time. You are serious, but you can't be lazy if you are a burden to others. You must gossip behind your back. "

Yan Ling spat out the mouthwash and said, "Anyway, I'm almost asleep, so it's okay to get up early."

Hair tied, dressed, and after a while, he went to the martial arts field with a sword in hand.

When the sky was bright, he went back to take a bath sweating profusely, changed his clothes and went to the office.

Now that Qianniuwei belongs to the East Palace, Yanling's role has become the prince's personal bodyguard.It is said to protect the prince's safety, but in fact it is to accompany the prince to eat, drink and have fun.

Yan Ling sighed.If he knew that slashing with the sword would put him in such a situation, he would probably hesitate for a while, right?

What the hell is the emperor thinking?Knowing that he took Barth's head in the chaos, and dared to hold him hostage, wouldn't he be afraid that something would happen to him?Or something happened to the prince?

It's useless if you can't figure it out, anyway, he is already here, so that his father can lead troops to fight peacefully, he can only endure it.

"Yan Er!"

"Yan Hou!"

Stepping into the office, everyone greeted him one after another.

Yanling smiled and responded one by one, very familiar.

The crown prince loves to have fun, and Qianniuwei has long been a place where rich and powerful princes mix their seniority. These people are all sons and daughters of various families, and they usually come to meet up and then go out for breakfast, so they are not serious errands.

When Yan Ling first came, because of his reputation of beheading Barth, these aristocratic princes were quite afraid of him, feeling that he was not their own.After being together for a while, I found that he was easy-going and easy-going, so we quickly became friends.

"Shall we go to Changle Building today? The new chef in their family makes good dim sum. I'm sure you haven't tried it yet."

This proposal was quickly approved by everyone, so a group of people marched into a restaurant.

Seeing this group of young masters wearing Qianniuwei costumes, the shopkeeper hurried out to entertain them.

Yan Ling mixed in the crowd, drinking tea, eating snacks, interjecting a few words occasionally, the demeanor of a dandy fit perfectly with them.

While eating, she heard a voice from another table: "Miss Xu San? Which daughter is this? What is His Majesty summoning her for?"
