Daily note

"Ji Bei..."

Bi Zihao immediately rushed forward, fell beside Fang Jibei, stretched out his arms to hug him, but was thrown away by Fang Jibei.

"Ji Bei, don't be angry, I, I was plotting against you at the beginning, but later on, I didn't have the slightest thought of harming you, Ji Bei..."

Fang Jibei took a deep look at him, turned around and left without saying a word.

Too bad, he was very angry.

Bi Zihao hurriedly chased after him, but was quickly thrown out of sight.

After chasing outside the bedroom door, Bi Zihao knocked on the door a few times, but no one responded at all.Feeling utter defeat, he sat on the ground, his face crumpled into a ball.

"Qi You, you...you and that person..." The woman—Princess Yu Mu ran over, stopped at the door, looked at Bi Zihao's pained expression, and asked cautiously.

Bi Zihao leaned against the door of the bedroom and smiled wryly: "Sister San, I like him, and he...is willing to be with me too."

Princess Yumu looked at him, completely dumbfounded: "You, you have never been more masculine before..."

"But I've never liked a woman before." Bi Zihao answered without turning his head, staring at the door panel.

"But Bishe has done so many things for you, and has been with you for so many years... You and him almost grew up together. He loved you so much that he even died for you, but you didn't like him."

"Before I met Ji Bei, the most important thing for me was to survive. In order to survive, it doesn't matter who or what is." Bi Zihao was silent for a moment, then said.

"Third Sister, Empress Mother...Mum, she is not favored and has a low status. It's okay for you to be a girl, but I have been living in calculations since I was a child, and you probably know it. But you must not know that I was cheated by my elder brother." How many times have I been hurt by the prince, I don't know how they tried their best to get rid of me. I was a boy and a girl since I was a child, and they told my father that I look like a mess..."

"I know, that's why my mother invited a court lady who is good at makeup to make you as ordinary as possible. Later, she simply trained Bi Zihao to make you more ordinary and himself more beautiful. No matter how beautiful he is, no one will Pay attention, so that even if it is too late to be seen by outsiders occasionally, it will not be exposed."

Bi Zihao raised his lips mockingly: "Hearing the word "Bi Zihao" feels really awkward... I should go to the imperial mausoleum to pay respects to him someday and ask for this name."

"Qiyou, don't tell me you...are going to live with this name, no longer..."

"Third sister, you are in Jiangnan, and you use the name Mu Yu?" Bi Zihao interrupted her, "Then you are Mu Yu, and I am Bi Zihao. Princess Yumu and Emperor Chengzhao of the previous dynasty are dead, aren't they? ?”

"You don't want the throne anymore?" Princess Yu Mu - or Mu Yu - stared at Bi Zihao with wide eyes, but there was some joy in her eyes.

"I don't want it." Bi Zihao looked at the door of the bedroom with indescribable tenderness in his eyes, "The person who is most suitable to sit in that seat is right in front of you, why should I sit on it? Compared with him, what is the dragon chair like?" interest?"

Mu Yu breathed a sigh of relief, and smiled: "Then I will notify Yan Heng and Commander Cai immediately..."

"He didn't die?" Bi Zihao asked, "I remember that Commander Cai was very loyal to Da Wei."

"Yeah, you don't know how troublesome he is. After saving me, he kept saying that he wants to restore the country. Even if the royal family doesn't have a man, he can still let my child be the emperor." Mu Yu complained, "It's all because of him. Said, Yan Heng also thought that I wanted to restore the country and take revenge. You... Uh, Zihao, don't blame me, I actually don't want to avenge you..."

"Avenge me, don't I live well?" Bi Zihao said, "Even if I die, I deserve it. I'm not a good emperor, never..."

"You have been growing up in the palace, one step away is death, how can you understand the suffering of the people?" Mu Yu squatted on the ground, stroking her younger brother's head, "Father is fatuous, he has tossed the country beyond cure, and You became emperor only because the crown prince and others died. When you succeed to the throne, you are just a puppet, so what can you do? Even I, after losing my status as a princess, can experience the life of the people."

"Then third sister, we will be Mu Yu and Bi Zihao from now on, okay?"

"But..." Mu Yu looked at the door of the bedroom, her delicate eyebrows frowned slightly, "Even if we want to give up our original identities, will that person believe it? Zihao, let's run away, no emperor will tolerate another" "The First Emperor"——"

"He will." Bi Zihao interrupted her, "Third Sister, he is not me, he is not you, he is not anyone from the royal family we imagined, not even the officials and eunuchs who are fighting for power in the court. For him In other words, the power of the throne is not important. If he thinks that I can be a good emperor, he will even give me the throne directly."

Mu Yu was dumbfounded: "How could there be such a person?"

"Third sister, I didn't believe it at first. When I was around him at first, I always thought he was putting on airs." Bi Zihao smiled softly, "How can there be such a stupid person? The strange thing is that such a stupid person can Entering the imperial palace, you can actually be a good emperor. Third sister, I read Jiangnan's booklet, the tax amount for this half year alone exceeds the entire year of the previous year, right?"

"Yeah, they all said that I'm lucky. I'm in business now, and it's much better than before." Mu Yu replied, "Although the situation in the capital will be better, the Jiangnan area is much calmer. They said that the original composition of the rebel army It is not easy to be corrupt, and it is the same when you are an official in the local area."

Hearing her praise Fang Jibei, Bi Zihao couldn't help but smile happily.

Mu Yu couldn't help but beat him up: "Don't be too happy, even if you are together, he will have to accept the concubine and have a child, right? Besides, he seems to be angry with you now."

Bi Zihao immediately dimmed and knocked on the door a few times. Seeing no response from inside, he said dejectedly, "Sister, come here from afar. I'll take a walk with you and chat with you. I'll come back at night... explain."

Mu Yu thought it was a little funny, but besides being funny, she also thought that this younger brother had really changed a lot.Who had seen him like this before?He always smiled faintly, even if that Bi Zihao from before grabbed his skirt and shouted love, his expression didn't change a bit.

It's okay if you can't be an emperor, and it's good to be a queen.Hearing that Bi Zihao and Bi Xiang are extremely talented, she was also surprised at where the inconspicuous little guy who was always by his brother's side learned so many things.

Thinking of this, Mu Yu stood up with a smile, and patted Bi Zihao: "Okay, I will let you, the third sister who is the richest man in the south of the Yangtze River, treat you to dinner. If you want anything, just ask, and the third sister will buy it for you."

After saying this, she saw her slumped brother's eyes light up, and his expression was a bit... malicious.

Shivering, Mu Yu followed Bi Zihao and walked out.

After they left, Fang Jibei, who was standing on the other side of the bedroom door, closed the door and bolted it, then sat down at the table, dazed.

It turns out that not only women like silk and satin and gorgeous mansions, men also like it.

Mu Yu looked at her younger brother who had taken a bunch of things, even two land deeds, feeling dumbfounded, and felt that if he went on like this, he would lose all of his family fortune.

The clothes they play with are nothing more than to please the emperor. What kind of real estate title deed, to put it bluntly, is to save some money for the bitter emperor.

Mu Yu couldn't take it anymore, so she left in a hurry and went back to the inn where she was staying - just kidding, it was not easy for her to earn that little money, so she didn't want to use it all to be filial to her brother...brother-in-law?

Her brother had a good eye, too.She was in the south of the Yangtze River and had heard a lot of news about the current emperor.That man is definitely worthy of her younger brother. Although he is a man, what does it matter?She didn't expect her younger brother, who is so powerful, to be with a woman for a long time.

Just have a good time.What the throne or the world is actually not that important.

Her younger brother made a gloomy appearance in the palace, and it was only because of self-protection.If it had nothing to do with life and death, she would rather have him like this.How happy.

In this way, it will be easier to face those dead soldiers who were loyal to the previous dynasty.To save them from always forcing her to rebel, and forcing her husband to become an official, so that the husband and wife cannot be together.

so good.

While Mu Yu was happy, her precious brother was guarding the outside of the bedroom, unable to enter through the door.

...After talking so much, he still refused to open the door.

Bi Zihao squatted at the door depressed, looking in through the gaps in the carvings and inlaid gemstones on the door.

——For him, there are no secrets in the palace.He was sure that Fang Jibei had heard what he said in the afternoon, but...he seemed to be still angry.

There was no response after knocking a few times, so Bi Zihao just sat down sadly.

He could vaguely see a figure, he must be in the bedroom, but he refused to open the door.Trying to look inside, Bi Zihao couldn't see the people clearly. While complaining about why he didn't make the gap bigger when it was built, he found a more comfortable seat and sat down.

Fortunately, I had dinner, and it is not very cold now, so I should be able to hold back.

That person hates being deceived very much, so it is impossible to use some means.

Bitter tricks are one of the simplest and most effective means.

With his rotten body, he just sat outside for one night, and he couldn't move at all the next morning.As soon as Fang Jibei opened the door, he fell inward.

"Ji Bei, Ji Bei..." After calling twice, Fang Jibei walked away without looking at him.

When I want to get up and chase him, my whole body hurts so much that I can't move my body at all.Bi Zihao could only watch him leave with sadness on his face.

The lament is not over yet.

Just as he was beating his legs hoping that the numbness would soon pass, two guards came out of nowhere, and each of them dragged Bi Zihao with one hand, dragged him to a single room near the bedroom, and put him down.

His emperor actually did such a shameful thing - because he didn't want to see him, he actually stopped him, he could act, but he couldn't go to where he was.

Bi Zihao felt bitter - it seemed that this time, Fang Jibei was really angry.It is impossible to rely on ordinary methods to solve it.

After a few days, I tried everything I could think of, and even piled up official documents on the desk, claiming that the emperor couldn't deal with it without giving instructions.But his emperor still did not see him.

It is not an exaggeration to say that seeing each other every day is like three autumns.At least Bi Zihao felt that life was like years, and Fang Jibei couldn't imagine it.Since he couldn't follow the peeping, he finally used the last trick——

Secretly opened the door of the secret passage, walked to the bedroom, and peeked at the person on the bed through the small hole.

The man was sound asleep, and under the dim light, one could see his slightly frowning brows.

Bi Zihao felt very distressed, his Ji Bei always slept heavily and looked relaxed.But now, was it because of me that he actually showed such an expression in his sleep?

"Ji Bei, don't be angry with me, okay? When I first lied to you, I didn't fall in love with you, and I didn't even know what kind of person you are..." whispered, looking carefully at the person on the bed, okay I want to rush out to hug him, play tricks on him, and make that person no longer angry.

Thinking of this, Bi Zihao was taken aback when he heard something suddenly, and hurried to the door of the secret room to be on guard.

There was a sound from the door of the bedroom. At first it opened very softly, but then it seemed that it couldn't be opened. The man became anxious, and the sound gradually became louder.

Although Fang Jibei has good sleeping habits, his alertness is not bad.How could such a loud voice not wake him up, he turned over all at once: "Who?"

His answer was a loud bang, and the door of the bedroom was split in two and fell inward.Debris splashed, causing the bedroom to be smoky.

Bi Zihao was startled, rushed out of the secret passage without thinking, and ran towards the bed.

A burly man rushed in at the door, holding a shining big knife, and slashed straight at the dragon couch.

"Ji Bei, be careful!" Bi Zihao shouted, throwing himself on Fang Jibei without thinking.

Fang Jibei had already grabbed the chair beside the bed, but Bi Zihao threw him so hard that he had to interrupt his movement of raising the crossbar.As a result, the knife fell and landed on Bi Zihao.

Fang Jibei's eyes turned red instantly, he jumped up, picked up a chair, and threw it down on the man with all his might.The man drew his knife and stood with him.

Although the opponent has a sharp blade in his hand, after all, it cannot compare to Fang Jibei's bravery in fighting in and out of the battlefield over the years, and his red-eyed murderous aura.The man just cut off a few corners of the chair, but he was hit several times on his body, which made his movements slow down.

"Commander Cai?" the person lying on the bed called out in a very weak voice, "Commander Cai, didn't my third sister tell you that I'm still alive..."

Hearing his voice, the man suddenly remained motionless as if struck by lightning.Fang Jibei was thrown down by a chair, and the wood splashed everywhere, but he was still standing dumbfounded.

"Your Majesty?" Commander Cai asked in a low voice, "Your Majesty, are you still alive? Your Majesty..."

He suddenly fell to his knees: "Your Majesty, I thought you were dead, so taking advantage of Princess Yumu's absence in the south of the Yangtze River, I sneaked here to assassinate this thief to avenge the Emperor—"

The former emperor lying on the bed bared his teeth, and his voice came out from between his teeth: "What do you guys really want me to do? If you don't come and help me bandage, I will stain this bed sheet..."

Commander Cai came to his senses and hurriedly stepped forward.But someone was one step faster than him and rushed to the side of the dragon couch.

A lot of blood, how can such a small person have so much blood to shed?His face was pale, his expression changed...

Fang Jibei was so distressed that he didn't know what to do, he tore off Bi Zihao's clothes in a hurry, and searched left and right for the wound medicine.

As soon as Bi Zihao reached out and took out a box of medicine from a dark compartment next to the bed, Fang Jibei hurriedly took it and applied it for Bi Zihao.

The medicine was indeed a secret medicine, and it stopped the bleeding quickly.Fang Jibei was about to call the imperial doctor, but Bi Zihao grabbed him by the corner of his clothes, turned to Commander Cai, and said, "Commander Cai, do you still remember where the Imperial Hospital is? Come."

Commander Cai wondered what the outpatient fee was, so he didn't dare to delay, and ran outside.

"Does it hurt? Is there any other pain? Why are you so stupid? Even if I get cut, I'll be fine. I have thick skin..." Fang Jibei sat on the edge of the bed and looked at Bi Zihao's shoulders. The wound on his back kept talking.

"That's great..." Bi Zihao said.

"what?"

"It's good of me, you finally talked to me." Bi Zihao showed a sincere smile on his pale face, "Ji Bei, don't be angry with me again, okay?"

Fang Jibei's expression became ugly when he heard that he was still thinking about this under such circumstances.He was about to speak when Bi Zihao closed his eyes and seemed to have passed out.

How could Fang Jibei get angry like this.I can only clean his wound and apply some wound medicine.

When the doctor's footsteps approached the door—there was no door panel, so the voice was very clear—Bi Zihao suddenly opened his eyes and smiled at him again.

"Ji Bei, I swore to myself that I would never let you suffer any more injuries...

"So, I'm glad I got this injury."

"Zihao, come and eat the hoof, it can replenish blood and heal injuries, it's very good."

"Don't move around, what are you going to do? I'll help you..."

Under the watchful eye of a nagging hen named Fang Jibei, Bi Zihao healed quickly - of course, this is what he said, in Mu Yu's words: he took all the best medicine, healed slowly Strange.

Fang Jibei is not a willful person, and he can't do the trick of a little girl embarrassing her lover. Apart from being distressed, he has long forgotten about being cheated.

These days, I heard Bi Zihao crying about his past misfortunes - he came from a humble background and was too beautiful, he was bullied by the original prince and other princes, and when others competed for the throne, he almost got rid of him.In the end, all the princes died in the struggle for the throne, and he was the only one left, so he had to be allowed to inherit the throne.

But the court is full of powerful officials, and he doesn't really have much power in his hands, so he has to seize power step by step, which is very hard.

"For so many years in the palace, my only goal was to survive, and I tried my best to survive. I didn't know what it was like to be an emperor until I met you."

When Fang Jibei proposed to give way to Bi Zihao, Bi Zihao shook his head and replied.

"Including me, no one is more suitable for this seat than you. I hope to be by your side, watch you change this country little by little, and help you change it, but I don't want this seat." Bi Zihao smiled at him, taking advantage of him Fascinated by the smile, he stole a kiss on the corner of his lips, "Actually, I want to be a queen more. But you absolutely cannot accept a concubine."

Fang Jibei laughed: "Of course I won't accept a concubine, but you...don't give anyone another chance."

Bi Zihao was overjoyed when he heard the words, but he knew that Fang Jibei was shy in this regard, so he didn't say anything like "jealous".Smiling, he pulled someone over, gnawed and kissed, until both of them were a little confused, but Fang Jibei stretched out his hand and pushed him away.

"You haven't healed yet, behave yourself!"

Bi Zihao was depressed: "Commander Cai, what are you doing with such a heavy hand... He should really be sent to the army..."

Commander Cai is extremely loyal to the Great Wei royal family. In his heart, who is the emperor is not so important, as long as his Emperor Chengzhao is still alive.Therefore, Fang Jibei did not hold him accountable for the assassination, and let him serve as a bodyguard in the palace to protect Bi Zihao's safety with all his strength.

Mu Yu will not go back to Jiangnan for the time being, and will stay in the capital first to help formulate the country's commercial system and operating methods.After Tan Yanheng heard about it, he immediately expressed his intention to come to the capital, but was rejected by Bi Zihao——Bi Zihao said that since Tan Yanheng was so enthusiastic about running a newspaper and so enthusiastic about Zhili's people's livelihood, he should keep his official position and not worry.

Hmph, who wants him to plot evil.

There may still be many problems and hidden dangers in this country.

But now, it is on the way forward, walking steadily.

In the end, only Kong Zhigao and Wu Sansheng knew about Bi Zihao's identity.Kong Zhigao had seen that he was not simple, although he was taken aback, after all, the degree of surprise was limited.But Wu Sansheng never imagined that this clever young man was actually the emperor sitting high on the dragon chair back then, so he couldn't help worrying about his old eyesight.

Kong Zhigao just said: "Your Majesty, as long as you like it. It's okay if you are together."

As long as you like it, it's fine.

end

"Ji Bei, I thought of it! Since we are worried about the protection of officials and officials and the failure of suing officials, why don't we separate the judgment of the case from the government, that is to say, the litigants and the officials who decide the case are not under the control of the local officials, but directly... For example, I will manage it, How about it?"

Fang Jibei's eyes lit up when he heard Bi Zihao's words.

"It makes sense. In this way, if officials do something illegal and disciplined, it will not be easy for officials to protect each other. They mainly base their judgments on the Law of Dayue, and changing them every three years will not cause too much trouble. If the reward and punishment regulations If you order well, it is likely to be very useful!"

As he spoke, he began to think about specific matters.When he regained consciousness, he saw Bi Zihao's face enlarged before his eyes.

"Zihao, what are you doing, you scared me!" Fang Jibei complained, stretching out his hand to push him.

Bi Zihao looked up and looked at him aggrievedly: "I want a reward."

……

"It was just last night—what do you want, are you strong enough?" Fang Jibei was anxious.

"Hey, the imperial doctor also said that I have been exercising actively recently and my body is getting better and better." Bi Zihao giggled and looked at Fang Jibei with malicious intent.

"That can't be too indulgent, no!"

"Ji Bei, you have to know that those who study the Fa in the academy are all my students. If I don't let go, no matter how good the idea is..."

Fang Jibei looked helplessly at the guy in front of him who was threatening national affairs, although he knew that as long as he insisted on opposing, he would not go too far.

but……

He lowered his head and kissed this guy.Let him go up and down, even afraid of his effort, and take the initiative to cooperate.

Give it a reward, the sweetness will make this guy more motivated, right?

"Ji Bei, you said that post stations are usually a waste, so why don't you just use them to deliver letters to the common people to earn some money?"

Fang Jibei squinted at him: "Is it Miss Mu's idea again?"

"Hey, the third sister said, she is just such a precious little brother, she can't bear to see me frowning." Bi Zihao chuckled, "Ji Bei, don't be angry, if my third sister focuses all her attention on me, Water Transport's She might not be able to come up with something..."

People say that couples quarrel at the head of the bed and make peace at the end of the bed. Although their way of reconciliation is a bit weird, it is still very effective!

"Don't worry, frowning will make you grow old quickly." Bi Zihao squeezed Fang Jibei's shoulders distressedly, trying to smooth his brows, "Isn't it just a matter of selecting officials, if not, let the people choose by themselves."

Fang Jibei tilted his head to look at him: "Choose yourself?"

"Yeah, didn't you imitate my third sister's chamber of commerce and let the local people's associations be organized? They even divided up some common people's associations, gentry associations, etc... You let them choose by themselves. Anyway, the legal affairs office is now The localities can be considered to have influence, and it is generally fair, let them look at the common people, and let everyone choose the right person." Bi Zihao said, pinching hard, so hard.

Fang Jibei thought about it, and felt that this was a good idea.So he picked up the pen and was about to write an analysis when Bi Zihao grabbed the pen.

"Anyway, don't think about these things now. We haven't done it for several days. I want a reward."

... You know that this guy's ingenuity is all used here.

After the passion, Fang Jibei opened his eyes and looked at the canopy of the bedroom, lost in thought.

Bi Zihao was still very excited, wanted to say a few words of love, and gathered up his strength to do it again: "Ji Bei, what are you thinking?"

"I'm thinking about how to ensure that everyone plays a role in the selection process, and how to avoid the situation that some places are too powerful, and then they always become officials, which makes the people suffer more, and..."

The words were blocked.

"You... We just finished, don't you think of something else?" Bi Zihao said.

"others?"

Fang Jibei didn't understand what he meant and looked at him.

"Yeah, other ones. Like, I love you and you love me, these 'other' ones..."

In the morning of the next day, Ren Tian stood outside the palace door, saw that there was no movement inside, made a face, and went out of the palace.

——Anyway, the lord who is the housekeeper and deputy prime minister is by the emperor's side, so there is nothing wrong with him.

As for how much the living houseman who was only thinking about how to eat tofu could record, it was beyond his responsibility.

The only thing he should consider is when to ask for an official post, lest the "living housekeeper" always worry that he will have a long-term affection for the emperor-he Ren Tian has not just met the emperor, and not everyone is like Bi Zihao, who has "" That kind of "hobby."

Go out of the palace and find a girl!

——On March [-]th in the sixth year of Xie Yu, Yan Qi was fine.
