Because Xu Wen pleaded with the emperor to revoke the punishment of those "leaders", he was able to regain some goodwill.

When the court announced the establishment of the agricultural imperial examination, Xu Wen's reputation was passed on by word of mouth among the farmers.

Although some people still say that Xu Wen's title of "Jieyuan" was not legitimate.

But he first proposed the agricultural imperial examination, which opened up a channel for all "mud legs" to rise, which was real.

…………

A few days after the storm, it was time for the "ten-day break".

As the name suggests, it means that the court will take a day off every ten days and will not have to attend court.

Other major festivals will also be given holidays depending on the situation.

It just so happened that after this "ten-day break" was the Qingming Festival, and the emperor deliberately took an extra day off.

When the Qingming holiday came back, there was another oral order saying that the emperor had caught a cold and would not attend court for the time being, so it was delayed for a few more days.

In the end, it was really impossible to hide it. All the officials counted and found that it had been eight or nine days since they last saw the emperor.

No matter what dynasty, not seeing the emperor for eight or nine days is a big deal.

On this day, all officials were ready to start attacking the imperial guards and the harem.

No matter what, they had to see the emperor before they would stop, otherwise the world would be unstable.

As a result, when they entered the Chongzheng Hall.

They saw a dragon ball floating on the dragon throne.

Under the dragon throne were Prime Minister Cai, Minister Shi, and a general, a total of three people.

This general was the one who fought hard to defend the harem gate when the third prince rebelled, and also had the merit of saving the emperor.

He was the most trusted military commander of the imperial guards.

With two civil officials and one military official, plus the dragon ball that the emperor never left, all officials felt something was wrong.

An imperial censor stepped out with a stiff upper lip.

Since Liu Fang, the head of the Imperial Censorate, was demoted to guard the gold and silver mines, the Imperial Censorate dismissed Pang Qiwen because of the imperial examination turmoil.

This is extremely rare in the Censorate where "no one is punished for speaking".

The remaining censors felt sympathetic whenever they saw something involving the emperor and Zhang Tian, ​​fearing that they would be the next to suffer.

"Prime Minister Cai, Minister Shi, General Longwei, may I ask where the emperor is? I have not seen you for many days and miss you very much."

Prime Minister Cai smiled slightly and said, "The emperor left a message in the Dragon Ball. You will understand after listening to it."

As he said this, Prime Minister Cai, Minister Shi, and General Longwei all bowed to the Dragon Ball and said, "Please speak to the emperor."

This was the "voice code" agreed upon by the emperor and the three ministers. In Zhang Tian's opinion, it was extremely childish.

When You Longzhu heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up and he spoke the voice of Emperor Anyou:

"I have something important to do, which concerns the country. I will be away with Master Zhang for a few days. Don't worry about me."

"During my absence, daily affairs will be decided by Prime Minister Cai and Minister Shi. Military and national affairs will be decided when I come back."

An official asked, "Your Majesty, when will you return?"

You Longzhu said, "To be determined."

"This..." All the officials looked at each other.

"Your Majesty, if you leave for ten or eight years, how will the court function?"

You Longzhu said, "If everything goes well, you can return in one or two months."

"Oh..."

The officials discussed for a while, and finally gradually fell silent.

It is well known that the emperor cannot have children.

Thinking of Zhuo Ping's marriage, all the officials can naturally guess that Emperor Anyou went out to solve the problem of fertility.

Fortunately, they knew that Zhang Tian was accompanying him, so they didn't have to worry about safety.

However, apart from a few core ministers, not many people knew where he was going.

Some officials could guess that he was going to Xiangyang City, but they would not foolishly spread the emperor's whereabouts.

Some people even looked up at the sky, wondering if he was going to heaven to seek treatment from the immortal doctor.

Suddenly, an official shouted: "Your Majesty, can you hear me and others?"

"Otherwise, how could the words reserved in the Dragon Ball be answered fluently?"

The voice of Emperor Anyou came from the Dragon Ball: "Hahahaha... As expected, you found it."

"This is the skill of the wind-hearing performed by Mr. Zhang, which allows me to talk to the nobles thousands of miles away."

"Wow..." All the officials were in an uproar.

Even Prime Minister Cai, Minister Shi, and General Longwei changed their faces slightly.

They also thought it was the voice reserved by the emperor.

Before, the emperor often used the Dragon Ball to convey his orders in the harem, and anyone who had a little idea would have already found out.

I didn't expect that the legendary "wind-hearing ears" actually exist, and can communicate across thousands of miles.

Fortunately, I didn't say or do anything inappropriate while the emperor was away.

An official asked cautiously: "Mr. Zhang, are you with the emperor?"

As soon as this was said, Chongzheng Hall was silent.

Sure enough, Zhang Tian's voice came from inside: "Yes, I'm with the emperor."

"Wow..." All the officialsAnother shock.

An official hurriedly flattered: "With Master Zhang and the emperor together, we are relieved."

Another official asked: "Master Zhang, since you have the skill of hearing the wind, you must also have the ability of seeing from afar, right?"

The Dragon Ball was silent for a while, and Zhang Tian's voice came: "I guess so."

"Can you let me see the emperor's face? I haven't seen the emperor for many days and I miss him very much."

Zhang Tian said: "It's not convenient at this time."

What Zhang Tian said was inconvenient, not that the time was inconvenient.

But he didn't install a camera or a holographic projector on the Dragon Ball.

Even this communication module was installed before leaving.

The Dragon Ball was originally just a toy given to the emperor to play with.

Zhang Tian didn't install a monitoring module in it.

In fact, he didn't think about it at the beginning, but he thought about it and gave up.

Although the emperor, prime minister, minister and others could not understand the technology of later generations, the ancients were not stupid.

If he revealed any clues during the conversation and was noticed by the emperor, he might sow the seeds of distrust.

Although he was not afraid, there was no need to do mean things and leave hidden dangers.

If he really wanted to monitor, Zhang Tian had plenty of means besides the Dragon Ball.

This time he took the emperor to Xiangyang City, which was two thousand miles away, which was too far from the court.

If something big happened in Lin'an Prefecture, it would be too late to pass the news to Xiangyang by four-legged horses.

So, after consulting the emperor, he said that a "talisman" under the Dragon Ball could enable the art of hearing.

Seeing Zhang Tian take the initiative to explain, the emperor immediately trusted and relied on Zhang Tian more.

He knew that if Zhang Tian really wanted to use some "immortal method" in the Dragon Ball, he would definitely not be able to detect it.

However, Zhang Tian still took the initiative to explain.

It shows that the other party truly respects him and did not rely on the immortal method to do mean things, which is worthy of the immortal family's demeanor.

…………

At this time, Zhang Tian and Emperor An You.

They were sitting in a carriage heading to Xiangyang.

Emperor An You was talking to officials in front of a "fairy ear" more than one foot long.

This was the "fairy technique" projected by Zhang Tian using a smart bracelet.

When the conversation ended, the "fairy ear" disappeared, and Zhang Tian came out of the carriage, leaving the emperor with a nostalgic look.

Zhang Tian got on another carriage.

The driver was Tiedong, and Xu Wen rode a horse behind the carriage.

Zhuo Ping also rode a horse behind the emperor's carriage.

On the emperor's side, a secret guard was driving.

Even Zhang Tian had never seen his face, and everyone only knew that he was called a very vulgar code name - "Shadow".

On this trip, Zhang Tian only brought Xu Wen and Tiedong.

Xu Wen was from Xiangyang, and happened to go home with this trip.

Although Tiedong has one arm, he has the sword skills passed down by Zhang Tian, ​​and his martial arts surpass most people. He is also a powerful force, so he must be brought along.

As for Su'er, although her home is outside Xiangyang City.

But after all, she is young, and this time is not a trip, so Zhang Tian can't bring her with him.

Su'er may not be able to bear the hustle and bustle along the way.

If there is any danger, if he distracts himself from taking care of her, the danger to the emperor will be greatly increased.

So, let Xu Jingye take care of her, and if there is an emergency, he can go to the palace for help.

Well, although Su'er is young, she is very sensible.

I heard that Zhang Tian, ​​Xu Wen and others will be away for one or two months, so they don't make any noise.

Instead, she took out a wooden box and said to Zhang Tian: "Brother Zhang Tian, ​​are you going back to Xiangyang?"

Zhang Tian was a little surprised: "How did you know? Who told you?"

Su'er said: "I heard from Brother Xu Wen that Zhang Tian only lived in Xiangyang and Lin'an when he came to the mortal world, and the fairy boat is still in Xiangyang City."

"Brother Zhang Tian said he was leaving, Su'er guessed he was going to Xiangyang for something."

Zhang Tian smiled and touched her head: "You are smart. Why did you give me this wooden box? Is it a farewell gift?"

Su'er opened the box and saw some copper coins and silver coins inside.

She handed it to Zhang Tian and said, "Brother Zhang Tian, ​​this is some money I saved from raising chickens and sheep. Please help me bring it to the orphans in Sujia Village."

"Or buy some food and share it with them."

"My parents can't go back, and there's no one to cultivate the fields at home. Alas... I don't know who will help Xiaogouzi and his friends and eat at?"

After that, she pushed the small wooden box to Zhang Tian with red eyes.

Zhang Tian took it and said, "Okay, I will definitely give it to Sujia Village. By the way, ask General Guo to help take care of it."

Although there was not much money in the wooden box, it was Su'er's heart, so Zhang Tian conveyed it for Su'er.

After solving the emperor's affairs, I will go to Sujia Village to see and help those who can.

In this era, there are so many miserable people in the world, and Zhang Tian can't save them.I can't come.

But since we have met, it is still possible to provide some food and ask General Guo, Zhang Baiwan and others to provide some work.

At this time, Zhuo Ping's voice came from outside the carriage, breaking Zhang Tian's thoughts.

"Your Majesty, Immortal Master, Jiangzhou is ahead."

The emperor curiously lifted the curtain and said, "Is it Jiangzhou where Master Zhang subdued the dragon? It's a pity that the dragon is huge and not easy to bring out."

Thinking that if he could take a dragon to travel incognito, Emperor An You couldn't help but yearn for it.

Throughout the ages, he is the only emperor who can ride a dragon to patrol, right?

Of course, the legendary Huangdi and others in ancient times are not counted.

…………

Just when Emperor An You and his party entered Jiangzhou City.

The news of his leaving the palace was quickly delivered to the hands of those who were interested through various channels.

Emperor An You disappeared from the palace, and all officials knew about it, so naturally he couldn't hide it from those who were interested.

Zhang Tian and Emperor An You didn't expect to keep it a secret forever.

I have concealed the truth for eight or nine days using excuses such as the ten-day holiday, Qingming Festival, and illness, but this is already the limit.
