That little fly

Shui Qingqian's cognition of martial arts can be described in a down-to-earth way - so ambitious.

Compared to his parents' demeanor of masters, compared to the sonorous pride of the Jinwu Guards, compared to Brother Azhao's body like a dragon and Yuanmu's [-] martial arts skills, at this moment, looking at the matrix team in the training ground The punching drill in the film, he thought, was so boring.

When Emperor Jiayou caught a glimpse of Shui Qingqian's small movements, his nose was almost out of breath. Because of his small stature, he didn't know when he got behind the throne. Throw a candied fruit into his mouth, find out a toy after a while and play with it for a long time, or hold his fat rabbit in his arms, the two little things have a lot of fun.Emperor Jiayou inspected the army drill and had to sit upright on the imperial platform. When it was the intermission, Emperor Jiayou finally freed up his hands to clean up this unsatisfactory little thing.

"Clear and shallow."

"Ok?"

Shui Qingqian ran over with snacks in one hand and his fat rabbit in the other. Emperor Jiayou's temples twitched. He had more than a dozen children, but he had never met such a worrying one.Emperor Jiayou still can't get angry, he asked for it, who told you to be willing to take him with you, why did you have to put him in front of your eyes?You can't teach him yet, or else this little thing will slap his mouth and turn his head to show you a back view, and there's nothing you can do about him.Emperor Jiayou has been the emperor for half his life, and it is only now that he has truly seen what it means to be strong without desires. Those Taoisms that are full of benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom and trustworthiness, such righteous gentlemen, such extraterrestrial experts... are all scum in front of Shui Qingqian's true colors.

"Official, are you calling me?"

"Qingqian, what do you think of the soldiers below?" Emperor Jiayou pressed his patience and began to induce.

"I don't quite understand it yet, but I'm learning it now." Shui Qingqian was excited when he mentioned that there was a martial arts class in Taixue, "Master Mu said that he would teach me how to use eighteen kinds of weapons in the future... Officials, Do you know that Yuan Mushi's weapons are amazing!"

The commander of Yuandu next to him was so embarrassed that he couldn't lift his head. Who in the upper class knew that his son abandoned martial arts and followed literature, and was proficient in all kinds of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. .But this is a son from a family of martial arts, and Shui Qingqian still has an adoring tone... General Yuan is afraid that his son will delay the future of this little flying boy.

"Then I will pick a few warriors from the soldiers just now to accompany you, okay?" Emperor Jiayou suggested with a smile.

Shui Qingqian looked at Emperor Jiayou, looked at the majestic and steady ministers of the Privy Council next to him, and then looked back at his grandfather. After turning his mind around countless times, he asked Emperor Jiayou seriously, "Can they help me fight?" So, whoever I ask them to hit can hit anyone?"

"Hey, how can this be? A good boy can't learn to bully others." Emperor Jiayou raised his eyes and gave Shi Ke a glare.

"Then if I see something, can they grab it for me?" I asked again.

"Qingqian, is it right to steal other people's things?" Emperor Jiayou raised his face and taught the child.

"Then I don't want any warriors anymore, it's useless anyway." The child shrugged and spread his hands.

Emperor Jiayou: "..."

"I've walked half of Dongzhou. I didn't need guards before, but now I need to use them here. Isn't the capital city known as the safest place?"

Emperor Jiayou: "..."

"I know that some people are very chickens, and they start to bully others after they have guards. But since the officials have said, you can't bully others. So I think it's not that I should be equipped with guards, but that you adults should punish all those who use guards to bully others , In this way, everyone will not need guards in the future."

The chief minister of the empire: "..."

"If it's unlucky, only me and my guards are not allowed to bully others, and everyone else can—" Shui Qingqian finished the long voice, "It doesn't matter if you have it or not."

Chief Lawyer of the Empire: "..."

Well, after Shui Qingqian finished speaking, he noticed that his grandfather frowned slightly, and in a blink of an eye, he found that the faces of many ministers under the Chinese military tent, including the emperor, were a little dignified.The big eyes blinked, and one sentence brought the atmosphere back, "The most important thing is, I don't have money to hire a guard."

The dignified atmosphere instantly collapsed.

"Then how much monthly money do you have? Let's do the math." Emperor Jiayou teased him.

Shui Qingqian dug out her small purse and turned it upside down in her palm...

It's so pitiful, the eyes of the onlookers are staring straight - more than a dozen copper plates, plus a piece of broken silver the size of a fingernail, are gone.

Emperor Jiayou: "That's all?"

Shoufu: "Is this your monthly money?"

Shui Qingqian nodded generously, not feeling shabby at all.

Everyone's eyes fell on the great attorney, are you ashamed?One of the dignified three men, the government hasn't deducted your salary recently, how can you treat your grandson like this, with such a little pocket money, you really can't afford to send beggars on the street.

Shui Qingqian added fuel to the fire, "Surely not enough to hire a guard, right?"

Emperor Jiayou: I can't live through this day.

"Qingqian, don't you have other valuables on you, which can be used as a guard's salary." Xie Shoufu smiled.

Shui Qingqian lowered his head and looked down. Don't look at the pitiful few coins in the purse, except for the purse, this guy can sweep out a granary full of ten thousand catties.Name locks, undersea dragon balls, white jade belts, dragon and phoenix jade pendants, auspicious jade gourds... These things are very valuable, and you can buy ten or eight guards with just one of them.Then the water is clear and shallow, and the number is the same. The name lock was given by the grandfather, the sea pearl was given by the grandmother, the jade pendant was brought up by him since birth, and the jade gourd... Anyway, each of them is famous and commemorative. Cannot be given away.

Shui Qingqian also has a cross-body lotus bag with her. It was originally a pocket specially sewn for Yuanbao, but Yuanbao grew up slowly, and now she ran out to the wild when she had nothing to do. The things in this cross-body bag became It's getting more and more complicated, the toys that Shui Qingqian throws in casually, the odds and ends bought when he goes out, and the gadgets he likes, everything.Shui Qingqian took out one by one, candied fruit, spinning top, sugar-fried chestnuts, Qiao Lianhuan... Except for the shark-skin dagger that Ji Zhao gave him, the rest were all worthless little things.

When Emperor Jiayou saw the dagger, his heart tightened.

That dagger looks not unusual, but it is a real good thing. Emperor Jiayou recognized this dagger because Shao Mingchuan gave it to Ji Zhao as a birthday present. Ji Zhao has carried it with him since he was six years old. Every pair of Ji Zhao's boots has an additional hidden pocket sewn into the right boot shaft, which is used to hold the dagger.This also triggered a trend. Nowadays, many wealthy children like to sew a secret pocket in their boots to store a delicate small dagger. The head of the inner guard has complained to Emperor Jiayou more than once about the safety of the palace. It's something later.

Emperor Jiayou's surprised eyes were fleeting. He watched Qingli pack Shui Qingqian's satchel, then reached out to pick up the small dagger and weighed it. "That's it, I can get you two guards."

Shui Qingqian shook her head like a rattle, "No, no, I can't give this to someone else."

"Well. Why can't you give it away?"

Shui Qingqian looked at the dagger in Emperor Jiayou's hand anxiously, and then took the initiative to reach out to take it, which made Emperor Jiayou embarrassed and refused to return the knife to him.After getting the dagger, he hurriedly put it in his pocket and protected it, "Brother Azhao gave it to me, so don't give it to others."

I don't know if others have any thoughts when they hear the name 'Azhao'. Anyway, Emperor Jiayou's heart skipped a beat, and his tone became more casual, "Who is this brother?"

"Did I tell the official that he rescued Yuan Bao with me." Shui Qingqian avoided the seriousness and went around lightly, with a very frank tone.

Emperor Jiayou looked at the round and fluffy ball, and remembered that he mentioned it once while listening to Shui Qingqian gossip, but he didn't say the name.For a moment, countless thoughts flashed through Emperor Jiayou's mind.Now is not a good time to ask, Emperor Jiayou watched the little thing put away the dagger solemnly, and his doubts grew more and more.Emperor Jiayou was in no mood to continue pestering the guards with questions, and ordered his subordinates to continue performing, and he had to ask questions carefully after finishing business.

Emperor Jiayou was sure that Zhao'er and this little thing must have some intersection.Years ago, Emperor Jiayou had such doubts.Because of errands, Ji Zhao couldn't return to the imperial capital for the New Year this year.But the annual ceremony cannot be omitted just because he is not in the imperial capital.This year's preparations for the Chonghua Palace's annual ceremony, Emperor Jiayou specially asked Chief Qingli to take care of it, and people from Guanglu Temple also helped.Anyway, Prince Zhao is not here, so there is no need to make flowers blooming like brocades, as long as you are in a good mood.Ji Zhao didn't worry about ordinary annual gifts, but he couldn't just fool around with the annual gifts for Emperor Jiayou, the Duke, Shao Mingchuan and other close people.Even if Ji Zhao just found a pot of folk home-brewed rice wine and sent it to his father to add food, that would be a kind gesture, right?

Those who can enjoy the New Year gift chosen by Shang Ji Zhao himself, and send the New Year gift treatment thousands of miles away, Emperor Jiayou counted and counted only a few elders with blood relatives, plus at most three masters who taught Ji Zhao Wenzhi martial arts, but in fact Yes, apart from what Emperor Jiayou could count, Ji Zhao also specially added a box of gifts to the annual gift of the Great Lawyer Shi Ke, which was delivered by a fast horse from the post station.This matter made Emperor Jiayou feel a little guilty.

It was not because of such a trivial matter that Emperor Jiayou had discord with his son and important ministers.Especially thinking of Shi Ke's Fei Tian'er status, and Ning Renhou's appearance a few years ago, Ji Zhao made up some New Year's gifts to have a good relationship. Temperament is a bit out of harmony.It was also because of this sense of disobedience that Emperor Jiayou was deeply impressed by this matter.But he doesn't know how to investigate, Emperor Jiayou is like this, even if there are signs that his son has some kind of secret collusion with his confidant Ai Qing, he is not willing to think about the bad side.This is the defect of the emperor, but it is the advantage of being a human being.

Good people always have good rewards, look, isn't a great opportunity just right at your door now?

After the formation training, there was a banquet in the evening. Before Emperor Jiayou attended the banquet, he tricked Brother Azhao out of Shui Qingqian's mouth. When Shui Qingqian evaded the important points, he described his encounter with Azhao on the street. Playing two or three things made Emperor Jiayou more firm in his idea of ​​'friendship'.Shui Qingqian and Ji Zhao just met each other once, and he can never forget it. They can exchange gifts, which are still preserved by Shui Qingqian, which shows that this child is a long-term lover, and sincere friends are always very precious.

"Brother Ah Zhao is amazing, even better than those people on the playground today." Shui Qingqian showed off with her tail cocked, her tone as if he could beat all the invincible opponents in the world. "If Brother Azhao is here, he will definitely win the first place. Official, if he wins the first place, will you praise him too?"

"Of course!" Emperor Jiayou was very proud.

"Then will he become a general?"

"Why do you care about him?" Emperor Jiayou asked back.

"Brother Azhao is also very good to me." Shui Qingqian replied confidently, pointing her head and pointing her fingers. After a while, Ai Ai muttered in a low voice, "I hope he can be happy...Brother Azhao doesn't seem to have a mother." , he didn't say it, but I know he is very sad, he has been missing her very much..."

One sentence pierced Emperor Jiayou's heart, and his heart ached so much that the emperor's father's old tears almost didn't fall down.
