wait for me to be king

Since His Majesty the Emperor strictly required Xie Changfeng to go to work the next day, Xie Changfeng had no choice but to temporarily give up the harmonious and friendly nightlife that night, and took Xie Ning back to Xie's mansion.

At this moment, Xie's mansion has already changed a lot. Uncle Wang tidied up the place during the day, at least tidying up the main courtyard. Xie Changfeng happened to bring Xie Ning to live in.

As for the original maids and maids in the Xie Mansion, those who did not have any bad behavior were naturally left behind, and those who sneaked around were thrown to the traffickers like Uncle Wang cleaned up the trash.

After Xie Changfeng took a hot bath, Jiayi and others who had been left behind by him finally returned to the capital at the last moment before the city gate was closed.

Dr. Liang, who accompanied the team, had tears in his eyes. He was so old that he came back from Jiaozhi intact! !It's really not easy...

Immediately after Dr. Liang came back, he left the team and went back to his own home. Jia Yi and Chen Jiu Yiyi bid farewell to go back to their superior, Qi Yuan. Only [-] soldiers remained and Chen Jiu came back.

Let the soldiers go to wash and rest, Xie Changfeng called Chen Jiu alone.

"I asked His Majesty to ask you to come here, and I'm afraid I will be stationed in the capital from now on. You have to remember that you are no longer His Majesty's secret guard, but my Xie Mansion's guard. You are also responsible for warming my bed on the surface. " Xie Changfeng explained the matter cracklingly, "If your former colleagues come to you, no matter what they ask you to do, don't bother. Of course, in fact, I hope you will trick people to me, understand?"

Following Xie Changfeng in Cochin for three years, Chen Jiu naturally knew that once his former little friend was tricked into the hands of General Xie, it would be like a meat bun beating a dog, and he would never return.

Chen Jiu bowed and saluted, "This subordinate knows." He glanced at Xie Changfeng, and said again, "Captain He said something just now."

Xie Changfeng looked up at him.

"Aunt Bai in the backyard is sick."

... Aunt Bai?Who is that?

Xie Changfeng was at a loss, "Do I still have Aunt Bai?"

Chen Jiu was speechless, "It's Miss's mother."

Isn't that young lady?Before Xie Changfeng could say anything, he suddenly remembered Bai Lu who plotted against him back then.

He was surprised, "Is she still alive?"

"..." Chen Jiu really felt that General Xie in front of him was a scum.

Xie Changfeng thought for a while, "Where does she live now?"

"It's in the small courtyard near the warehouse in the backyard."

Xie Changfeng's mansion is not too big, the most important one in the mansion is the main courtyard, and the other is the warehouse.

Xie Changfeng's eyes were slightly cold, "The warehouse? Why does she live near the warehouse?"

Chen Jiu looked calm, "Aunt Bai's maid said that they first lived in the east of the backyard. Later, the general and his wife all left, and the house was a bit chaotic. Aunt Bai packed up her things and hid near the warehouse with a maid."

Xie Changfeng narrowed his eyes slightly, "Really? She is really courageous!"

At this moment, he was already thinking of the time when Bai Lu knelt and cried alone at the door of his house, and even more remembered how well-behaved Bai Lu was later, and now changing yards. Sure enough, women are tough creatures, and they must not let down their vigilance.

Not everyone can go from the brothel girl branch to this point, Xie Changfeng admires Bai Lu very much, the premise is... no one is helping her.

Xie Changfeng waved his hand, "I see."

For Xie Changfeng, a concubine is not much of a threat, as for Xie Ning...

Xie Changfeng can give Xie Ning a stable living environment, and can also provide her with good educational opportunities, but in the end, how to do it, how to do it, and what to get, can only be judged by Xie Ning himself.

Xie Changfeng survived in this world, the only fetter was Qi Yuan, for him, anyone could become an enemy in a second, so he didn't care about Bai Lu's possible influence on Xie Ning at all.

On the contrary, he felt that this was a good test. If he passed it, Xie Ning would surely shine brightly in the future. If he failed, it would be nothing more than a dowry to marry far away. Didn't Xie Changfeng have no money?

Among the chivalrous women of the Tang Dynasty who walked the rivers and lakes back then, which one hadn't encountered a scumbag man, which one hadn't experienced disaster?

Think of Gu Zhilan who has turned white all night, think of Gao Jiangting with broken hands, if Xie Ning wants to step out of the backyard in the future, and officially stand on the historical stage of the Chu Dynasty, if she really crosses the battlefield and gallops the world, she will definitely have to go through many hardships .

No one can bear the pain for others.

Xie Changfeng went to work the next day.

As soon as he took up his post, he felt Emperor Xuanming's deep malice towards him.

Standing in front of him was a man with a gentle smile. He was wearing a stone-blue gown and a maroon jacket. He looked exceptionally energetic. This man was Qi Wang Qi, whom Xie Changfeng had known for a long time but had never met before. Chen.

"Father said that I'm married and an adult, let me come to the Ministry of War for training!"

Xie Changfeng said with a wooden face, "Exercising together, exercising together."

As an acting Minister of the Ministry of War, he is not much better than King Qi who just entered the court, and he also has to accept the training of two servants of the Ministry of War=v=

There are two servants of the Ministry of War, one surnamed Sun and the other surnamed Zheng.

Yuan Lai, the former Minister of the Ministry of War, was a good friend of Lin Jingcheng. Before he resigned, he handed over everything to the two servants, and asked the two servants to get along with Xie Changfeng. The two servants accepted the entrustment of their superiors. If they want to do it well, then they will cooperate well. If Xie Changfeng doesn't want to do it, then they will make offerings.

As a result, Xie Changfeng is now accompanied by King Qi, so they have to teach them well.

There are four soldiers. The two servants let Xie Changfeng and King Qi go to the yamen. Among them, the servant Zheng Zuo first asked King Qi.

"I don't know where His Highness Qi Wang wants to start first?"

King Qi blinked and smiled, "Xiao Wang is not very familiar with this, please ask Master Zheng to introduce it to Xiao Wang."

Zheng Shilang roughly talked about the affairs of the Fourth Department of the Ministry of War. King Qi asked Xie Changfeng after listening, "I don't know what aspect Mr. Xie wants to look at?"

Xie Changfeng also smiled, "I came from the army and am more interested in war horses. Let's start with the driving department in a few days!"

King Qi nodded immediately, "Since Mr. Xie said so, Xiao Wang should also start from the driving department."

Zheng Shilang and Sun Shilang looked at each other, do these two adults know what the driving department mainly does?

Xie Changfeng stood up, "Let's go, let me see the war horses of our Chu Dynasty!"

Zheng Shilang was silent for a while, "Then please His Royal Highness King Qi and Master Shang Shu go this way."

This Zheng Shilang led the two of them directly out of the Yamen of the Ministry of War. Someone sent a horse. Zheng Shilang got on the horse and led the way. They ran eastward for about half an hour and left the city.

The smile on King Qi's face was a little stiff, "We are..."

Zheng Shilang replied, "We are going to the horse farm in the eastern suburbs."

"..." King Qi said dryly, "Shouldn't you read the information first to understand the situation?"

"The information stored in the yamen is just a general idea, not as complete as the one stored in the horse farm." This Zheng Shilang looked serious, "Since His Highness wants to learn from the horses in the driving department, it is better to visit the horse farm to have a look."

Xie Changfeng twitched the corners of his mouth, showing a malicious smile in a place where no one was around.

Even if he just became a minister and doesn't understand anything, he still has a way to trip up the prince.

The horse farm in the eastern suburbs is very large, and there are about [-] to [-] horses in it, some of which are tributes from various countries, some are breeding horses, and finally the horses are carefully bred by the horse farm itself.

There is no man who is not good at horses, even after King Qi came here, his eyes lit up when he saw the horses in the racecourse.

Xie Changfeng even rushed into the stable, ignoring the stench and foul smell in the stable, touching them one by one, the heat in his eyes was only slightly lower than seeing Qi Yuan ==

Horses are naturally used for riding. King Qi was rare for a long time, so he asked Zheng Shilang, "Which is the best horse here?"

Zheng Shilang looked at the horseman waiting beside him.

The horseman said, "Your Highness, there are many good horses in our racecourse that are tributes from various countries. Most of these horses are rebellious, so even the young ones can't judge which horse is the best, but if Your Highness is interested, you can go one by one. Check it out and compare."

Upon hearing this, the king of Qi immediately followed the horseman to the Gongma yard with great interest. After Zheng Shilang apologized to the king of Qi, he ran to the stable to look for Xie Changfeng.

Xie Changfeng ignored King Qi, he mainly checked the excellent war horses bred on the stable.

As the horseman said before, there are many types of war horses, some are good at explosive power, some are good at endurance, some are good at kicking people, some can run long distances, some can charge into battle, and even the horses needed in the northern border and the western regions The horses needed are different. The types of horses cultivated in the stable cover the basic needs of military supplies, but the number is a bit stretched.

"The time for the Chu Dynasty to be established is too short..." Xie Changfeng sighed after seeing the stables.

Zheng Shilang just heard it, he subconsciously looked left and right, then smiled wryly, "Master Shangshu, please be careful with your words."

Xie Changfeng shrugged, "Anyway, this is the truth." He pointed to the horses in the stable, "Mengma is still suitable for war horses."

"It's easy to breed, fast to breed, has endurance, relatively fast speed, and courage to control. The only disadvantage is that the horses are short..." Xie Changfeng shook his head, "However, we Han people are not very tall, so they are more suitable."

"That's right, my lord. The main breed in our stable is Mengma, but the quantity has not been able to keep up, and the number of breeding horses is too small and the quality is not high, so..." Zheng Shilang sighed, and then remembered One thing, "But last year, a country in the Western Regions offered eight fine horses. Some of them were tall and pure white. I heard that they came from far away Europe. If the general is interested, you might as well try it."

Xie Changfeng was shocked, "Europa's horse?!"

He walked towards the Gongma Courtyard, and just a few steps away, he heard a noise coming from the front.

Xie Changfeng and Zheng Shilang looked at each other, quickly quickened their pace, and as soon as they entered the tribute horse yard, they saw a tall white-haired horse galloping in the middle of the running field.

Well that's not the point, the point is that His Royal Highness King Qi is sitting on it, and the horse is going crazy.

Xie Changfeng frowned, put his fingers together, and whistled.

In the next second, following him galloping through northern borders, defeating Linyi, and returning to Beijing with the first-class people yesterday, the big black horse rushed out with wild steps.

Xie Changfeng got on his horse, the big black horse sneezed excitedly, and rushed towards the big white horse.

Zheng Shilang suddenly remembered something, he shouted, "Xie Shangshu! That white horse is a female!!"

ha?

Xie Changfeng was stunned, but before he could react, the big black horse under him suddenly stood upright, as if showing his heroic posture, and almost threw Xie Changfeng off the horse.

Xie Changfeng watched the black horse scratching its head and posing in silence. Before he could control his crazy horse, the big black horse rushed to the white horse as if seeing braised pork, and licked the white horse with its tongue while running!

Sparse saliva was left on the long tongue, and Qi Chen, who was leaning on the horse while holding the rein tightly, roared inwardly.

——Don't lick me!
