Empress work daily

Chapter 229
In the evening of the next day, Ji Qiang and his friends received an invitation from the National Teacher.

The national teacher seemed to be on a whim, and invited several people to go boating and play on the Lake of Mercy tomorrow.The national teacher also said that when they rowed to the other side, they could go to the woods for a picnic and have a good time before returning.

Ji Qiang stared at the gold-plated invitation letter in his hand, and it would be strange to believe this trick.Half an hour later, the five companions gathered in Yangyuan Hall, all holding invitation letters.

Qin Shima was once clever: "Seeing that you have all received the invitation letter, I am relieved. Come on, go home and think about how to save your life tomorrow. As for food, drink, play, and things, you don't need to bring them. Don't even think about it." think."

Hearing this, the others silently put away the invitation letter tacitly, and began to guess what kind of test the National Teacher would arrange for them tomorrow.

Although there were many people in Yangyuan Hall, it was surprisingly quiet.

Ji Qiang lightly instructed Shang Liujia and Linglu to go to Song Guogong's mansion and Chongming Hall respectively, and invite Song Gantang and Ye Jiahe together.

Everyone was puzzled, the so-called lake tour was definitely not a simple lake tour. Thinking about the embarrassment of being locked in an iron cage in the Taixue Institute, they felt the cold engulfing their bodies, and the "life and death" thing, pulled those two people who had nothing to do. What do the irrelevant people do?
Ji Qiang laughed: "Such a beautiful thing, naturally we have to share it."

Friends: "..."

When did His Majesty take on the bad taste of "tricking people"?
……

Not to mention how happy Ye Jiahe was in Song Gantang's heart when he received the order from the Holy Master, and how embarrassed he was when they met at the shore of the Mercy Lake the next day. In order not to show their flaws, the two tried their best to cover up.

Not long after, the two of them stopped trying to cover up, because, from the beginning to the end, no one paid attention to their every move.

Everyone stared dumbfounded at the small and broken boat in front of them, only to feel that the autumn wind was cooler.

"Brother, how many people do you think this boat can hold?" Ji Qiang pushed the boat lightly, and the boat ran a meter away. Seeing this scene, everyone felt even more overwhelmed.

Chu Lingxiao made a preliminary assessment that the boat could hold six people if it was stretched to death, and it was still under the assumption that the boat would not sink.

So... what did His Majesty call those two over?
The six people suddenly looked at Ye Jiahe and Song Gantang in unison, and the two looked uncomfortable.

Ji Qiang covered his mouth in embarrassment and coughed, and after a while, he said solemnly: "You two, please go your own way."

Song Gantang: "..."

Ye Jiahe: "..."

who are they?where are they?

What exactly are they here for?

Song Gantang could barely understand Ji Qiang, after all their monarch often did things unexpectedly.

However, Ye Jiahe, who had just arrived, was shy and embarrassed, and wished he could find a hole to get in right away.

For this trip to the lake, she carefully prepared most of the night, and loaded the half-carriage with only food and drink supplies. She wanted to be active when accompanying the king, and to earn face in front of His Majesty and all the companions, but in the end...

At this moment, the national teacher appeared in a fairy.

Everyone was busy saluting from a distance.

Ji Qiang took a few steps forward and stood upright to meet him.

Ye Jiahe clenched the veil tightly, his calf trembling slightly.

Living to the age of 16, this was not the first time she saw a national teacher, but the first time she saw a living one.

In the past in Jizhou, she had seen countless portraits of the national teacher, which were drawn by different painters, so there are many samples of the national teacher's appearance.

"Princess, take it easy, the national teacher is very approachable."

Song Gantang comforted him softly, Ye Jiahe gave him a grateful look, completely forgetting about yesterday's embarrassment and embarrassment.

After everyone saluted, Jiang Jian cast his eyes on Ye Jiahe and said lightly, "This is..."

When Ye Jiahe heard the sound, his head went blank with a "boom".

She forgot to speak back, forgot the etiquette she should hold at this moment, and even forgot to breathe.

Yin Buli is the most experienced in this situation. Back then, at the teacher apprenticeship ceremony, she fainted from excitement, causing everyone to be in chaos. So far, Maju still teases her about this incident from time to time.

Yin Buli immediately grabbed Ye Jiahe's arm, secretly giving her strength to support her.

And recommend to Jiang Jian: "Mr. Hui, this is Jizhou, Princess Jiahe."

Jiang Jian glanced lightly at the person with lowered eyebrows, saw that she was born well, but her legs were trembling uncontrollably, so he said in harmony, "Very well, bless you."

Yunhe immediately brought a lucky bag embroidered with auspicious clouds and cranes to Princess Jiahe, and everyone was overwhelmed.

Especially Ji Qiang, she looked at Jiang Jian, at Ye Jiahe, and finally stared at the exquisite lucky bag in a daze.

After a long while, he looked away lightly, and there was no expression on his face as calm as water.

All of her small movements were caught by Jiang Jian's eyes, and immediately, a faint smile overflowed from the corner of his mouth, and it was fleeting.

Ye Jiahe took the lucky bag with both hands, knelt tremblingly and saluted, never daring to look up at Jiang Jian from the beginning to the end.

Ecstasy, annoyance, shame, bewilderment... All kinds of emotions occupied her mind. When she regained her composure, she saw that His Majesty and five companions had already boarded the ship.

"This boat can only accommodate six people." Ji Qiang carefully grabbed the side of the boat, she was not good at rowing, so she sat on the bow.

Immediately after were Yin Buli, Qin Shima, and Chu Lingxiao.

Ban Zhuojia and Bai Fusu sat in the stern of the boat, each with an oar.

Ye Jiahe looked at the tense-looking people in the boat, and for some reason, she always felt that the atmosphere was weird.

Everyone seemed to be tense. Although Ye Jiahe couldn't understand the reason, he felt that the so-called swimming in the lake was not that simple.

Que Ling cleared his throat and started the request for this "training".

The requirements are simple on the surface. Six people row boats to the other side of the lake, and then go into the forest to pick fruits. One fruit can be exchanged for one bamboo slice.

Time limit, one hour.

After Que Ling finished reading, Yunhe showed everyone a palm-length piece of bamboo.

In the next moment, Qin Shima shouted: "What are you doing in a daze? Hurry up, hurry up, it's only an hour!"

Holding the bamboo stem, Chu Lingxiao tried his best to support it on the stone wall on the lakeshore. Suddenly, the boat moved forward at high speed like an arrow off the string. Ban Zhuojia and Bai Fusu immediately paddled vigorously.

Only about ten meters away, the speed of the boat slowed down.

There are many people on board, and the carrying capacity is already the limit of the hull. Therefore, even though the three masters of Wudi often deal with water since childhood, they still cannot make the boat move forward quickly.

……

Ye Jiahe stood on the shore in a daze, his eyes straightened.

Song Gantang quietly told her that His Majesty and his companions were in class, and Ye Jiahe was taken aback. The courses at the highest university in Daliang, the Taixue Institute, are like this?
"Yes, the national teacher's class has always been like this." Song Gantang really wanted to tell Ye Jiahe about the situation of His Majesty and the others in class, but the national teacher held a banquet for tea not far away, so he didn't want to be too noisy.

As soon as Song Gantang had this thought, Yunhe came over and said: "The national teacher has an order that Song Shangshu and Princess Jiahe don't have to accompany each other. The national teacher also said that the princess of Jiahe has just arrived, so he ordered Song Shangshu to stay with you so that the princess can be well. Enjoy the autumn scenery of our Haojing, the Lake of Mercy."

Song Gantang got up to accept the order, and then smiled at Ye Jiahe: "Princess, please!"

Ye Jiahe stood up hesitantly, with a dazed expression on his face.

Song Gantang pointed to the lakeshore and said, "We can walk around the lakeshore to the forest. Doesn't the princess want to see how His Majesty and the others "teach"?"

With 1 curiosity in Ye Jiahe's heart, naturally 1 are willing.
