"This time our Mo army defeated Qi State, Du Aiqing and Gui Aiqing have made great contributions." The emperor said with a happy face.

The Grand Governor Du Antong smiled slightly, glanced sideways at Su Yunqi, the Minister of Civil Affairs, who was standing among the ministers, and recalled the emperor's words: "I don't dare to monopolize it. This time, it's thanks to Su Shangshu."

After hearing this, Su Yunqi, the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, began to dance with his smile, and then moved his lips: "Shang Shu Gui is praising Su. Su knows nothing about marching and fighting."

After hearing this, the young emperor sitting on him raised the corners of his mouth and said: "This time, all three of you have merit, and so have the soldiers!"

After saying that, the emperor looked at the ministers below and the two less-loved prime ministers standing at the top: "This battle in Runzhou is enough to exaggerate the power of my great ink. Please pass on the decree. This time I will participate in the battle in Runzhou."

Everyone who fights will be rewarded!"

"According to the decree." Huang Zhiyuan, the prime minister of Zuo, said.

Listening to the emperor's words, some unkind ministers seemed to have found weaknesses in the emperor's words and deeds, including the two ministers...

"Prime Minister Li."

After the official business was settled, Huang Zhiyuan, the prime minister of Zuo, who was the most respected official in the dynasty, shouted.

Huang Zhiyuan, the Prime Minister of the Zuo Dynasty, appeared to be diligent and conscientious on the surface, but in fact he was very greedy in his heart, but he did not dare to say it. He was already in his forties, and some white hairs had grown out of his black hair.

After hearing this, Right Prime Minister Li Huixuan stopped and slowly turned his head to look at Left Prime Minister Huang Zhiyuan, who was several years older than him.

"Prime Minister Huang, what else can you do?" Prime Minister You asked.

Prime Minister Zuo looked into Huang Huixuan's eyes with a smile on his face: "Now that the official business is over, I wonder if Prime Minister Zuo and I can go to the Jiuxin Pavilion to drink away our worries and have a heart-to-heart talk by the way?"

Seeing that he had a higher official position than himself, Huang Huixuan, the right prime minister, could not refuse. Thinking that there was nothing to do at home and it was still early, he agreed: "Okay, just in time. I have nothing to do at home today, so I will accompany you."

Please accompany Prime Minister Zuo."

"good."

The two of them chatted and unknowingly arrived at Jiuxin Pavilion.

According to legend, the wine in Jiuxin Pavilion is not only delicious, but also relieves all those who come here to relieve their worries. Therefore, many literati and elegant people come to drink in Jiuxin Pavilion every day, which is famous in Yanyang City.

wine shop.

The location of Jiuxin Pavilion is just right, especially in the hot summer, when guests sit in it, cool breeze blows from time to time, which can be said to be a good place to relieve the heat; when it is freezing and snowy, when guests sit in it, the charcoal fire emit

The heat even reached all over his body.

Many literati wanted to find out and asked the shopkeeper. However, the shopkeeper always replied: It was passed down from the ancestors and they did not know the reason.

Prime Minister Zuo Huang Zhiyuan drank a glass of wine and said, "Prime Minister Li, you have been the prime minister for eight years, right?"

After hearing this, the Right Prime Minister Li Huixuan drank a glass of wine together and recalled, "Yes. Life flies by so fast, and now Prime Minister Huang's hair is a lot whiter."

Huang Zhiyuan pursed his lips and smiled: "The same goes for Prime Minister Li." Then, he rolled his eyes and looked directly into Prime Minister Li's eyes: "Now, Prime Minister Li has many children in his family, right?"

Li Huixuan looked up at the moonlight in the sky and said, "That's right. Now that all my children are getting married and starting a business, I have become a grandfather."

At this time, Huang Zhiyuan laughed heartily: "Who is not?" After laughing, he raised his glass and looked at Li Huixuan with a smile: "Here, do it!"

"Do it!" Li Huixuantong raised his glass.

Just like that, the two of them were chatting, and unknowingly their faces suddenly turned red.

"Is there anyone in Prime Minister Li's family who is unmarried or inactive?"

At this moment, Li Huixuan seemed a little drunk on the surface, but his thoughts were still clear: "Why not? The fourth son in my family has done nothing now. He is good at eating, drinking, prostitution and gambling. Even if I try to persuade him, I can't do anything. Son."

Huang Zhiyuan listened to Li Huixuan's words and directly whispered in Li Huixuan's ear: "Prime Minister Li, do you want to be greedy with me?"

After hearing this, Li Huixuan shook his head directly, thinking that he had been wronged by others, and hurriedly replied: "I have never had such an idea, someone must have framed me!"

Huang Zhiyuan smiled and patted Li Huixuan on the back: "How can an official not be corrupt?"

Suddenly, Li Huixuan was speechless.

"Although you and I are both important to the emperor, Prime Minister Li has ever thought about what we have been officials for more than ten years. It is not just money, but a bit of official reputation. Since the late emperor went to Hexi, you and I have been The two of them are like two dogs beside the emperor in this court."

After saying that, Prime Minister Zuo Huang Zhiyuan's eyes became moist.

"I am willing to listen to Prime Minister Huang's words." Li Huixuan suddenly felt aggrieved.

"Okay. Come on, let's do it!" Huang Zhiyuan raised his glass of wine and drank with Li Huixuan...

Now, the New Year Festival is getting closer and closer, and the steamed bun shops in Tongzhou are making preparations for the New Year Festival.

"Uncle Xu, tell me, what kind of person is my father?" Chen Ziyuan asked suddenly, and then he remembered that it had been several days since December 6th, and he was nine years old today.

After hearing this, Chunxu, who was busy chopping firewood, looked at Li Xiran, who was considered beautiful, and didn't ask anything, but his eyes were enough to tell what Chunxu wanted to ask.

Li Xiran, who had never read a book, immediately didn't know how to make up this story and was waiting for Chunxu's response.

"Your father is... a businessman. The business he does is well known in the capital. But your father also has a younger brother. Your father's younger brother likes gambling and owes a lot of debt. Every time I always ask for money from your father, and over time, your father will also be in debt." Chunxu compiled.

Unexpectedly, Chen Ziyuan, who was just nine years old, seemed to understand what was right and what was wrong. He became disgusted with the father and brother that Uncle Xu said: "It's all his fault! If it weren't for him, how could dad leave us here!" Chen Ziyuan pouts. Keep your mouth shut.

Chunxu smiled slightly when he saw Ziyuan's appearance: "That's right."

Li Xiran on the side smiled and said nothing, making steamed buns.

After some decoration, the store seems to be much newer, but it is not too prosperous. It is better than the old house before.

"By the way, Ziyuan. It has been so long and you have been busy studying, so I forgot to ask. Do you still remember the martial arts that I taught you in the past?" Chunxu said.

Zi Yuan shook his head: "I don't know. Uncle, is martial arts really that important?"

"You won't suffer when you learn martial arts, and you won't be fooled when you learn martial arts. You can eliminate violence and bring peace to the people, and eliminate harm for the people. Do you think that's okay?"

Zi Yuan nodded: "Okay, then from now on I will learn martial arts from Uncle Xu during the day and study hard at night, okay?"

"Okay. Then this will be the case every day."

"Well. Uncle Xu, let me help you." Zi Yuan wanted to help Chun Xu chop firewood, but Chun Xu refused.

"You go to study first and practice tomorrow. Your Uncle Xu is still good at this job."
