Empress work daily

Chapter 17 Companion Reading
On the second day, a whirlwind of "making new clothes, making jewelry, and making weapons" quickly blew up in the capital of Daliang. Because of the order of the national teacher, His Majesty can personally choose a few to accompany the reading.

How gratifying and congratulatory it would be to be the accompanying reader of His Majesty... No, no, to be precise, what a supreme honor it would be to become a disciple of the National Teacher!Not to mention learning one or two spells from the national teacher, even if you can get a taste of his fairy spirit, that is also a great fortune.

Did you see the two boys Yunhe and Queling beside the national teacher?The two did not follow the national teacher to learn art, but only serve the national teacher's daily life, and now they have become more and more immortal. If they really become the national teacher's disciples, their future is simply limitless!
To put it bluntly, if one of them is chosen to be the next national teacher in case of a miracle, it would be, it would be...

Therefore, the nobles of all the great families tried their best to send their children to His Majesty in order to gain His Majesty's eyes, and then used His Majesty as a springboard to worship the national teacher as their teacher.

The "whirlwind" was raging at the beginning, but later it was a bit tragic.Ji Qiangyuan didn't know how fierce the competition was, until he heard that the two old men, Qin Guogong and Song Guogong, were fighting in the street, he was taken aback.

At this time, she was sitting in Wang Shengjun's yard, eating hot pot with her fathers and cousin Chu Lingxiao.

Vegetables are all from the vegetable garden of Shouan Palace, you can pick whatever you want to eat.The meat and meat all come from the wooden cages of Shoukang Palace. Before making the bottom of the pot, it has been cleaned by Wang Shengjun, a superb cook. There is a pot of fried yellow croaker that is not only delicious and tender, but Ji Qiang can't find a fishbone for a long time. The body of the fish is still intact. I don't know if the fish is born without thorns, or it was disposed of in advance by some mysterious method used by Wang Shengjun.

Ji Qiang picked up a piece of fish and put it on the plate, and while he was looking for the fishbone repeatedly, Shang Liujia was rushing to describe the fight between Qin Guogong and Song Guogong in the street.

"Originally nothing happened. The two princes met at the weapon shop. Both of them were very polite. They said hello to each other, and even asked each other about the weapons they wanted to build. Qin Guogong wanted to use fine steel and cold iron to make a gun for Qin Xiaogong. For the unparalleled Zhangba spear, Song Guogong wanted to use the extension wood from Changbailing to build a unique Zhuge Liannu for Song Xiaogong. Unexpectedly, Qin Guogong laughed when he heard it, saying that Song Xiaogong was a Confucian student, let alone draw a bow and shoot arrows. I'm afraid I can't even lift the sword... Song Guogong was displeased, and mocked the little prince Qin, who is a fool who raises horses, and he is not expected to be a general on horseback at all... The two of them just talked and quarreled, arguing and fighting Woke up, it is said that Duke Song's beard was pulled off by Duke Qin..."

"Pfft..." That scene made people laugh, and Ji Qiang couldn't help laughing. Two high-ranking father-in-laws who were nearly sixty years old were fighting in the street, pulling their clothes and beards. Could they be more childish?

"and after?"

"Later, Song Shangshu and Qin Shaoqing left the Yamen in a hurry, hurried over to pull the two Dukes away, and it took a long time to persuade each of them to go home."

Ji Qiang put down the silver chopsticks, took a sip of fruit wine, pondered for a while, and ordered Shang Liujia to draw up an order, "Qin Shaoqing is brave, sensitive and eager to learn, and he is worthy of the post of accompanying student."

"When conveying the decree to the national teacher, be sure to tell him that Qin Shaoqing has extraordinary ability in the field of knowing horses and raising horses, please be sure to keep him."

Hearing the words, Wang Shengjun suddenly looked at Ji Qiang boldly, "I am stupid, since your Majesty has accepted Young Lord Qin, why not also accept Young Lord Song? With such a choice, what about Song Guogong..."

Ji Qiang's eyes were calm and slightly cold, Wang Shengjun paused halfway, but still expressed his meaning firmly, "Why don't you agree, and take the opportunity to pull the two Dukes over from Princess Wei, but my minister I heard that the two Dukes have been getting very close to Princess Wei recently."

Wang Shengjun's courage surprised Ji Qiang and made her even more puzzled.The first emperor once issued a death order, and no one in the harem, except the husband and king, was allowed to interfere in politics.Ji Qiang didn't understand why Wang Shengjun committed the crime knowingly.

However, if you say that he has other purposes, it is simply ridiculous.Just a few words can tell the number of his strategies, not as exquisite as his vegetable garden.

Besides, with his slightly timid but sincere eyes, Ji Qiang couldn't see his ulterior motives.

"I know Yafu's intentions." Ji Qiang answered him equally seriously, "It's just that the misfortune comes from the mouth, and I hope Yafu will keep it in his heart."

Wang Shengjun wanted to confess in a panic, but Ji Qiang hurriedly stopped him, and laughed and talked about the beauty of today's hot pot, as well as the fried yellow croaker that made her mouth-watering.

At the end of the small banquet, Ji Qiang quietly asked Chu Lingxiao if he had someone to take with him when he came to Beijing this time, as if waiting for her words, Chu Lingxiao immediately recommended two people, one was Bai Fusu, the other was Ban Zhuojia (zhuo jia), both of them came from the Wu family.

Bai Fusu was good at military strategy, and Ban Zhuojia was a rare general in a century, all of which were told by Chu Lingxiao bluntly.

Ever since, two more people were selected on the accompanying reading list, Bai Fusu and Ban Zhuojia.

"One more woman, the accompanying reading team of the five-person group, is enough."

"Did Your Majesty make a mistake? Even if there is one more person, there are only four people. How could it be five?"

"Brother, you even forgot yourself?"

"Me? Minister..."

"Although I am not capable of building a Qilin Guard, it is still possible to choose a companion for myself."

Chu Lingxiao: "..."

As a generation of monarchs, there is no need to carefully appreciate the helplessness that is often constrained, it is everywhere, Chu Lingxiao can't help but clenched his fists, and respectfully thanked him.

……

It was night, and Ji Qiang turned on the lamp to seek the night.

The left and right hands hold black and white chess pieces respectively, and the thoughts of heaven and man are at war. When it is fierce, sparks and thunderbolts are scattered, but the demeanor is as calm as water from beginning to end.

Suddenly, a cold light "swish" across, and it was too late and then quickly, and when everyone came back to their senses, an arrow without any mark had been inserted into the red pillar in the temple, and almost at the same moment, a black shadow flashed from the window, Huang Chang chased after him without hesitation.

A small piece of paper was inserted into the tip of the arrow, and Shang Liujia carefully took off the paper with some undecided shock, and gave it to Ji Qiang.

I saw it read: Wu Chuban Zhuojia pays homage to His Majesty the Emperor. Tonight, at the time of Hai, the Dukes of Qin and Song Dynasties have left the Palace of the Princess of Wei State one after another.At the beginning of Zishi, Yin Buli, the daughter of Yin Yushi of the Procuratorate, quietly left home and was detained by soldiers and horses of Wucheng in front of Xuanwu Gate.

Huang Chang didn't catch the black shadow, and came back with a sullen face to plead guilty, but saw Ji Qiang laughing heartily, "The person recommended by my brother is indeed a genius."

Xiao ordered Huang Chang to get up, "In the dead of night, Ban Zhuojia went deep into the palace as if he had entered no one's land, and even slipped away unscathed under your nose, Huang Chang, you have met your opponent."

Then he changed the subject and asked where Zhao Gan, the commander of the Yulin guards, was. Knowing that he was not on duty tonight, he might be sleeping soundly at this moment.

"I tossed and turned without sleep, but he was sleeping soundly... When I went to make a fuss, I said that there were assassins, and the arrows were the proof. In addition, I went to the five cities to pass the decree. Yin Buli is the companion I invited into the palace. "

The crowd led away, and within a short while, the entire imperial city was buzzing.
