no matter the way home

After handing over to the Li officer, Zhao Qingfu went to visit several old officials outside the palace. He was busy until late at night, but he still had a lot of things to do.But it was too late, Zhao Qingfu planned to go back to Prince Zhang's mansion after he came out from the Mansion of Minister Shangshu.

Zhao Qingfu has his own Prince Duan's Mansion, but his father's Prince Zhang's Mansion is his permanent residence.

The servant opened the door for Zhao Qingfu, Zhao Qingfu refused the service of other servants, and went straight to the backyard.

Even in the middle of the night, the courtyard was still lit. Obviously there was no shortage of lights at home, but Yang Zhang, who was used to frugality, was still willing to light only one.

Zhao Qingfu stepped on something, and with the dim light, he could see clearly that it was a piece of waste wood.

This person is still only doing his carpentry every day, and the objects he carved are piled up all over the courtyard, leaving no room for others to stay.

Zhao Qingfu stepped over something that was probably a toad, and smelled the peculiar smell coming from his father. He covered his nose, couldn't help frowning and said:

"Let's leave the job of making raw lacquer to the servants. Does it hurt to have allergies on your hands all the time?"

"They can't adjust the color I want." Yang Zhang replied, making paint in his hands without stopping.He then picked up another piece of pig's blood, Zhao Qingfu was so overwhelmed by the smell that he almost felt nauseous.

But he still held his mouth and nose reluctantly and said: "Mother is gone, I will take care of you for her."

"You don't want your mother to worry every day in heaven, do you have allergies on your hands?"

Yang Zhang helplessly put down the paint in his hand, wiped his hands with a rag and said, "You just move out of Yaya all day long to suppress me."

"It's not because father is only afraid of mother and only listens to mother." Zhao Qingfu walked over to help his father up from the small bench, pushed Yang Zhang into the room from behind, and said, "Okay, dad, it's already late, let's meet again tomorrow." It's never too late to get on with your precious carpentry."

Yang Zhang glanced at Zhao Qingfu's waist and noticed something was missing, so he asked, "Where's your wooden box? Why didn't you bring it with you? Isn't it containing your favorite little tiger talisman?

"Speaking of the Tiger Talisman, I just remembered it. When you were young, you played with your temper and liked the style of the Tiger Talisman. You insisted on begging your little uncle to take it from General Tao. In the end, His Majesty was very gracious and allowed me to carve it. I bought a wooden one for you to play with, and you finally stopped crying after you took away the wooden tiger talisman."

Looking back on the past, Zhao Qingfu felt quite embarrassed: "It's not that I was ignorant when I was young."

To be honest, Zhao Qingfu felt a little flattered.Although it is a wooden carving without any real rights, the fact that my uncle can agree to give me a tiger talisman is enough to show that he is the emperor's tolerance and generosity, and his pampering and attention to himself.

Yang Zhang waved his hand and said, "Don't talk about it with me. Did you give away your wooden box? Which girl did you give it to this time?"

Zhao Qingfu was quite speechless: "I've never given away the wooden box before, okay? Don't blame me."

Yang Zhang looked clear, nodded and said: "It seems that this time I met true love. You, you, treat him well, and stop messing around."

Zhao Qingfu answered very seriously this time, he supported his father's arm and said, "I will definitely."

When the morning light was twilight, Xu Muchao woke up from the couch, and there were a few crisp birdsong outside the wooden window. Xu Muchao got up and looked over, and found that it was a small sparrow.

Xu Muchao stretched out his hand, and the little sparrow probably lived on the mountain for a long time, so with a little humanity, it fell on Xu Muchao's palm obediently.Xu Muchao pointed at its little head, which was looking left and right, with a smile in its eyes.

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door, and a voice came from outside: "Mu Chao, have you got up?"

It was a senior medical practitioner from the same hospital, Xu Muchao lightly hugged Xiaoque and replied: "I'm fine, Senior Sister Zhao, please come in."

Senior Sister Zhao opened the door and came in. Xu Muchao noticed that she seemed to be holding something in her hand.

Senior Sister Zhao took the initiative and said: "I just planned to get up early to go to the medicine garden, but I saw this thing just after I opened the gate. Guess someone gave it to you."

Xu Muchao took what Senior Sister Zhao handed over, and found that it was a messenger king butterfly and a wooden box.This Kingdee imitated her own method, and the messenger probably tried hard to imitate it, but unfortunately, the details are still very shoddy.As for the wooden box, it looks familiar, as if I have seen it somewhere.

"The things are in your hands, so I'm leaving. I have to go to the medicine garden to help Master find the missing herbs. I don't know why Master has been looking for so many strengthened herbs recently."

Senior Sister Zhao closed the door and left.

Xu Muchao took a serious look at the wooden box, and found that the other party was really just an ordinary little wooden box with no other traps, so he decided to open it directly to see what was inside.

The room was still a bit dark, Xu Muchao took the contents of the box to the window, and found out by the light from outside that it turned out to be a very delicately carved small tiger amulet.

Isn't Tiger Talisman a thing to command the whole army and control a country/military?How could anyone dare to carry this gadget made of wood with him?Aren't you afraid of being beheaded by the emperor?

The little sparrow had already hopped along Xu Muchao's arm to her head, moving around on her head, not knowing what it was doing.Xu Muchao didn't intend to take care of the little sparrow, she tapped the golden butterfly, and the golden butterfly unfolded itself into a piece of letter paper.

Xu Muchao picked up the letter paper and found that there was only one line written on it.

"Something happened at home in Luoyang. I'll go back first. I'm sorry I can't say goodbye in time." Signed by Zhao Pinduan.

Xu Mu raised his eyebrows, it turned out that he didn't leave me alone.

Xiaoque was very happy to stay on Xu Muchao's head for a while, then flew happily around her a few times, and then went out of the window.

Xu Muchao saw the little sparrow flying towards the blue sky and bright sun, and finally disappeared into the deep clouds. She pointed at the letter and made a decision immediately.

When the injury is almost healed, she is going to see Zhao Qingfu.

Only after I became an emperor would I understand how difficult it is to be in charge of the world.

It was clear that the time for the next court had come, but none of the courtiers left first. Even after the eunuch announced his withdrawal from the court, the discussion became more intense.

Here it is said: "The primary purpose now must be to deal with the floods in the Jiujiang area first. The floods have caused the people to live in dire straits!"

There said: "Frontier defense matters are the most important thing. How dare the barbarians oppress our borders, they really don't know what to do!"

Another voice said: "This year's imperial examination is also imminent, and the election of available national pillars is really the top priority..."

"And, and..."

Hearing them all talking together, Zhao Qingfu felt very headache. He rubbed his temples on the dragon chair and replied: "First of all, flood, please hurry Feng Qing and Li Qing to the Jiujiang area to assist the local officials to control the flood. Only the best soldiers go together, and the two of you will learn from Dayu to control the water, and do a good job of blocking and dredging.

"Besides the border defense, the Tiger Talisman is with you, General Tao, and I also trust you, General Tao, so border defense matters are left to the general to handle.

"Third, the current national crisis, internal and external troubles, it is not appropriate to promote talents, and the imperial examinations have not yet completed all the examination questions, so this year's imperial examinations have been postponed until after September.

"And the fourth..."

As soon as Zhao Qingfu finished speaking, the eunuch announced the disbandment of the dynasty again.This time, no one stayed, and all rushed out in a file, and began to be busy with the affairs of their subordinates.

It was past noon, and Zhao Qingfu still needed to review the memorial. He didn't even have time to take care of the meal put aside by the maid, so he could only concentrate on the desk in the imperial study.

When he came back to his senses, it was already late at night, Zhao Qingfu sighed in his heart, it had been more than a month, and he still couldn't get used to wearing this red robe.It's not to say that they can't do it at all, but the efficiency is always very low, far inferior to the boldness of the little uncle when he scolded Fang Qiu.

Feeling a little tired physically and mentally, Zhao Qingfu planned to go to the Royal Garden to relax.He settled down under a magnolia branch in full bloom, and saw that the buds were still stained with the morning dew.

Even though he hadn't picked up the sword for two months, Zhao Qingfu still had the senses of being a Jindan stage monk. He looked up at the sky and found a scallion-colored shadow heading in his direction.
