The world is heavy and late

Chapter 214
The best Xu Zhong in the world was working hard for the emperor. The emperor had only spent half an hour in the carriage and couldn't help but want to ride a horse himself.

Xu Zhong looked at the emperor who didn't allow others to disdain him, and he could only helplessly rejoice that he had learned how to ride a horse when he left Beijing last time.

King An was not very good at seeing, so he put down the curtain and said to Concubine An, "Hey, don't stay in the carriage well, you have to go out to eat sand."

Princess An...: "What does His Majesty do has anything to do with you?"

Wang An: "Can your tone be better? I don't care what he does. Hmph, it's exactly the same as his old man, dark and dark."

"Besides, the king gave him the best carriage. He said he wanted to ride a horse, so he left the carriage to the king. The carriage is many times bigger than this one, and the king ordered someone to lay it The top-quality leather is much better than this king's."

The meaning of complaining was beyond words, he didn't care where the emperor went, why did he have to get involved with him, because he was afraid that he would rebel?

King An obviously has the heart of a villain, and the emperor thinks that his concubine brother is more likely to rebel than King An.

King An was brought up to such a size by boiling frogs in warm water. He really couldn't bear the suffering of rebellion, and he couldn't bear the psychological pressure.

That's why the emperor agreed to King An's request to set up a monument. For a quiet King An, he didn't mind giving him this dignity.

But King An was obviously not afraid to speculate about his brother Xiandi and the emperor's nephew with the greatest malice.

Concubine An couldn't hear that King An was so unabashed, but before they could speak, the two heard the sound of horse riding, ran from the back of the carriage to the side of the carriage, and finally walked forward with joy.

Princess Anyang's voice spread in the wind: "Father, queen mother, my servants will go ahead to explore the way first."

The last voice seemed to be coming from the wind, and it gradually disappeared.

King An immediately opened the curtain next to him, but he only saw the happy back of Princess Anyang, and he could feel the wantonness just from the sound of the horse driving.

Wang An gritted his teeth: "..."It was all brought down by that kid Zhao Jingxing. What should I do if I don't stay in the carriage in such a cold day and catch a cold when I go out?"

Having said that, only two guards were allowed to follow up and protect them closely, and no one brought them back.

Princess An also looked at Anyang's back, and then slightly hooked the corners of her mouth.

"Didn't the lord always say that Anyang is too old? I think Anyang is much more cheerful when he comes to the capital this time."

Wang An's veins are bulging, can he not be cheerful, he stays with Zhao Jingxing all day, a good girl, stays away from home all day long.

King An waited until he couldn't see Anyang's back at all before he lowered the curtain, turned his head to Princess An and said, "How do you teach the child?"

Concubine An glanced at King An, but turned away immediately, with an expression that hurt her eyes: "Doesn't the lord like Anyang's liveliness?"

Wang An choked, but he liked it.

Concubine An took a critical look at Wang An and said, "I think Anyang is very sensible, and gets along very well with the queen and prince and the Second Highness in the palace."

Wang An gritted his teeth, who is he talking about, he is an uncle, so he can't scold his nephew, and that nephew even took his money!
Wang An looked at the immobile Princess An and snorted, and ignored her, naturally missing the smile in Princess An's eyes.

Xu Zhong followed the emperor on horseback, but he couldn't be compared with the emperor Xin'an County King, and of course he couldn't compare with Song Qi, a dude with a middle school illness.

He looked at the unrestrained emperor and Xin'an County King, and sighed helplessly in his heart.

Song Qi scratched his head looking at Xu Zhong, who was struggling a little, and saw the emperor and Xin'an county king galloping in front of him, feeling a little embarrassed for a moment.

Ordinarily he should have chased after the emperor, but Xia Qing's ferocious face appeared in his mind, he shuddered violently, and asked, "Master Xu, do you want to ride with me?"

Xu Zhong's body froze when he was struggling, and he felt a little awkward and subtle disgust: "Thank you, Mr. Song, for your kindness, but Zhong is okay. My lord, hurry up and chase after His Majesty."

Song Qi breathed a sigh of relief and smiled. He didn't really want to take Xu Zhong with him either. How strange are the two big men, but Xia Qing didn't listen to him when he told him.

But now that Xu Zhong himself refused, he can't be blamed for not taking care of it anymore.

"My lord, afterward, I will go after His Majesty first."

Xu Zhong nodded and looked at another one who was running around, and now he sighed sincerely. It stands to reason that he is a civil servant, right?Xu Zhong comforted himself somewhat.

But before he could exhale that breath, there was a soft voice from behind, Xu Zhong had a bad feeling, and when he turned his head, it was indeed Princess Anyang.

When Princess Anyang met him, she slowed down a little, looked at Xu Zhong for a while and said, "Master Xu, you don't seem to be very good at it, oh not very skilled."

Xu Zhong's complexion didn't change much, but his tone was much milder: "Xiaguan seldom rides a horse since he returned to Beijing. It's been a little rusty for more than a year."

It's not rare, not at all, as long as he can ride, he doesn't want to pursue the excitement of running wildly.

He looked at Princess Anyang looking forward with some hesitation, and continued: "The official is waiting for His Royal Highness King An here, princess go first, be careful of the branches in front."

An Yang looked at Xu Zhong's calm expression, and didn't refuse, he just said: "Then please, Mr. Xu, take care of my father, so that he doesn't drink on the road."

After finishing speaking, he rode away, and the two guards behind him chased him closely, raising a cloud of dust.

Xu Zhong sighed again, he really decided to stay with His Royal Highness King An, the emperor couldn't catch up with him, not to mention the king of Xin'an County and Captain Song, how could he not be able to carry the knife? !

When King An's motorcade caught up leisurely, King An saw Xu Zhong, and immediately said: "It's so windy and sandy, why bother to ride a horse, Master Xu, come up quickly and let's have a drink."

Xu Zhong: ...I just promised your daughter not to drink.

Xu Zhong politely declined An Wang's invitation to drink, and got into the carriage to drink tea and chat with An Wang.

On such a cold day in October, it is better to stay in the carriage.

King An didn't think there was anything fun on the road at all, although returning to Yizhou still made him a little happy, after all, he could be the local emperor again.

However, Xu Zhong and the emperor still experienced a lot along the way. One of the two had seen the Li people during the war, and the other had seen the people who fled two years ago.

In the evening, the group stayed at the inn smoothly. After all, it is near the capital, and the inn here is already the best, but Wang An's expression is full of disgust.

According to his thoughts when he entered Beijing, he must change the inside and outside of the post station with his usual items, but he glanced at the emperor who was already looking around and said nothing.

He can't show that he is rich now, and not revealing his wealth is the most important truth that Wang An has learned since he came to the capital.

In the evening, Xu Zhong went to serve the emperor to sleep. Although he was a courtier, it was much easier for the emperor to be away, but when Xu Zhong left Beijing, Xu Ji also specially told him that the king of Xin'an County and Song Qi really didn't seem like people who could serve him personally. Xu Zhong can only pick up the skills he has learned before.

The emperor glanced at Xu Zhong, who was standing upright, and asked curiously: "That kid from the Song family said you were writing in the room, what are you writing?"

Xu Zhong paused, looking at the emperor's face, he felt that he was probably chatting.

"The minister is writing some news."

The emperor raised his eyebrows and took the teacup in Xu Zhong's hand: "Why are you recording these? Do you want a travel journal?"

"No, I just read it by myself in my spare time."

The emperor smiled, and said with some comprehension: "Xia Qing reminded you to remember?"

"……Yes."

The emperor is in a good mood, riding his horse to gallop in the west wind today, the emperor is probably very happy: "What are you embarrassed about, I think Xia Qing has a thick skin, aren't you in the Qingyun Tower, are you not very upright?"

Xu Zhong felt a little uncomfortable. He was not used to talking about Xia Qing in front of the emperor, and he would unconsciously think of the danger that day.

He was not surprised that the emperor knew about the Qingyun Tower. He had also served in front of the imperial court, so he naturally knew that the emperor would let Xu Ji listen to the news.

The words of the people are heated, and the behavior of the courtiers is nothing more than these.

But with his official position, the emperor didn't need to pay attention at all. After all, with so many people, the emperor also picked people to listen to and listened to information.

Xu Zhong thought in his heart why the emperor suddenly brought up Qingyun Tower, but he still had a dignified face and said with a bit of shame: "I am frivolous, I hope Your Majesty will forgive me."

The emperor waved his hand, this matter was Chen Guzi's rotten sesame seeds, and he usually just used it as a joke.

"I heard that you are the number one in Qingyunlou Wenhui, beating Cui Hengshu?"

This year, Xinke explores Cui Shu, whose name is Hengshu.

After Xu Zhong heard this, he understood that the emperor didn't care about his love affair, but wanted to hear about this group of Jinshi, especially the descendants of the aristocratic families who were still coming to participate in the scientific examination.

He thought it over and said: "It's all by luck, I have read Mr. Cui's article. The words are smooth and meaningful, which is beyond the reach of me."

The emperor didn't care about these humble remarks, and asked directly: "Oh, you are optimistic about him? Then what kind of official do you think should be given to him?"

Yes, Jinshi does not become an official after completing the examination, but also passes the assessment of the Ministry of Rites, and finally goes to the Ministry of Officials to wait for an official. The period can be delayed for a year or two.

Xu Zhonghui: "I dare not speak nonsense."

The emperor put down the cup in his hand: "But it doesn't matter."

Xu Zhong pondered over and over again, thinking about the dossiers and related comments about Cui Shu he had seen these days: "Mr.

The emperor asked with a pensive face, "Then how do you think he compares to Xie Huizhi?"

Xu Zhong choked, the emperor actually knew the answer when he asked.

Xu Zhong was a little speechless. Why did the emperor want him to judge this kind of thing that everyone can understand at a glance?

"Master Xie is rich and handsome, unrestrained and handsome, he is a rare and good gentleman in the world."

The emperor raised his eyelids and looked at Xu Zhong, as if scolding with a smile: "I see that you have indeed stayed with Xia Qing for a long time, and you only look at his appearance."

……

Xu Zhong felt that it was not unreasonable for many people to say that the king's heart is unpredictable.

How can I answer your question?
