Great Ye Empress

Chapter 67 Fighting Qi
Xiao Zhiyu carried the Zhijiao, stepped on the bamboo bridge, and shouted while running, "I knew the second brother was here!"

Seeing Xiao Wulang running towards this side, Xiao Zhiyan released Master Wu's wrist.

He withdrew the gloomy expression on his face, and his eyes brought the same calm as usual.

The first empress, the biological mother of the second prince Xiao Zhiyan, had been kind to the mother concubine of the fifth prince Xiao Zhiyu.

After the queen went to immortality and the second prince was sent to the Northern Wei Dynasty to be a proton, the biological mother of the fifth prince always thought about the second prince. When she was alive, she often taught the fifth prince Xiao Zhiyu to respect and love the second prince.

The fifth prince has always remembered the words of his mother-in-law.

After Xiao Zhiyan returned from the Northern Wei Dynasty, other princes alienated him because of the birthmark on his face and the fact that he was not favored by the emperor.

Only the fifth prince, Xiao Zhiyu, came to haunt him without fear, and remembered his second brother for everything that was delicious and fun.

Xu Shi was moved by the rebellious Fifth Prince's innocence towards Xiao Zhiyan...

Before he knew it, he had gone from repulsion and deliberate avoidance at first to now occasionally teaching a few words.

The fifth prince, Xiao Zhiyu, came running out of breath, glanced at Master Enlightenment who turned a blind eye to his prince, and thought he would often walk in front of Xiao Zhiyan.

He looked up at his second brother, showing off proudly: "Second brother made me look good, I went to the second brother's mansion as soon as I came out of the palace, but no one of those stupid servants knew where the second brother went. Fortunately, I came to Xiangguo Temple ingeniously!"

The 15-year-old Xiao Langjun, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, is full of heroic spirit, but he tugs on the sleeve of his second brother like a child: "Second brother, when I follow the master, everything is fine, that is... Mother Liu's horseshoe cake!"

Xiao Wulang used to love sweets, but he felt that men like sweets too feminine. He pretended to be dismissive of sweets and held up his identity and air on weekdays. He would only ask for sweets when he was here with his second brother.

After saying goodbye to Master Wu, Xiao Wulang chased Xiao Zhiyan beside Xiao Zhiyan and walked out along the quiet bamboo forest path.

The sound of water is gurgling, and the birds chirping.

The sunlight penetrates like a green cover, and the stars are scattered in the trails.

The wind blows, and the swirling bamboo leaves rise one after another.

Dressed in narrow-sleeved robes and wearing Linlang orbs, the handsome young man shook his head and shook the fallen leaves, jumping like a small bird, and surrounded the gloomy young man with a slender figure walking with his hands behind his back, with a bright smile.

Master Wu looked at the black and white figures, one big and one small, and the smile deepened between his brows and eyes.

He turned back to pick up the chess pieces, and shook his head lightly: "When you use your heart, you don't want to use it. You don't want to use it, you use it often, you don't have it... It's good!"

Xiao Wulang got the horseshoe cake at Xiao Zhiyan's house as he wished.

He looked at Xiao Zhiyan who was reading the official document, rolled his eyes, and leaned closer: "Second brother, lend me Mr. Shen from your house! I want to ask Mr. Shen to read an article for me."

Xiao Zhiyan didn't even lift his head: "You are under the tutelage of Ji Jingci, this person has learned to be rich and full of skills, can't you read an article for you?"

"Second brother, you don't know!" Xiao Wulang got angry when he mentioned this, put down the horseshoe cake in his hand, pulled up a chair and sat down beside Xiao Zhiyan, "The kid who wrote this article is a descendant of Chen Jun's Xie family, Very mad! Xie Lao asked my master to accept him as his apprentice, he didn't rush to show his hospitality, he didn't want to worship my master!

When Xiao Zhiyan heard this, his hand turning over the document froze.

Chen County Xie's...

He suddenly thought of that little Langjun, who acted exactly like Yun Zhao when he was throwing the pot, and his eyes were calm.

Xiao Wulang babbled: "The result! As soon as my master saw this article, he was in a hurry to accept others as his apprentice! I didn't see how amazing this article was written, so I wanted to find Mr. Shen to see it!"

Xiao Wulang copied the article and showed it to several bachelors, and he didn't know whether the several bachelors praised the article for the sake of flattering him.

Unconvinced in his heart, he thought of Mr. Shen in his second brother's house.

Mr. Shen has always been arrogant, and his tongue is like a snake and scorpion. He often criticizes the articles such as the champion and the second place. Xiao Wulang wants Mr. Shen to comment on this article.

Hearing Xiao Wulang's dissatisfaction, Xiao Zhiyan asked, "But... that Xie family Liulang, Xie Yunchu?"

Xiao Wulang opened his round eyes and looked at Xiao Zhiyan: "How does the second brother know?"

"Where's the article? Let me take a look..." Xiao Zhiyan said.

Xiao Wulang hurriedly took out the article from his chest and handed it to Xiao Zhiyan.

The article was copied by Xiao Wulang, Xiao Zhiyan frowned at Xiao Wulang's handwriting: "Following Ji Jingci for so long, this word... how come there is no progress at all?"

"I didn't write it properly!" Xiao Wulang said while taking Xie Yunchu's handwritten article from his arms, "When I asked An from the father and emperor, I happened to meet a few bachelors, so I quickly copied it for them to read. Who knew that they saw my handwriting and praised this article! I can only come to Mr. Shen to comment."

"The words are like people, the character is straight and the words are straight, the fifth highness... the qualitative is not enough."

Outside the door, Mr. Shen's voice came.

Xiao Wulang heard the sound and stood up with a smile: "Mr. Shen!"

Holding the official document, Shen Zizai raised his robe with a smile and saluted with Xiao Zhiyan and Xiao Wulang.

Shen Zizai is over half a hundred years old, and he has a strong sense of books, and his demeanor is full of the arrogance of a scholar.

Mr. Shen was Daye's champion at that time, and he should have a bright future.

But... In order to repay the kindness of the former queen, after the death of the former queen, Xiao Zhiyan was in the Northern Wei Dynasty, Shen Zizai took care of the official affairs, resigned resolutely and went to the Northern Wei Dynasty, accompanied and taught the second prince for many years, and was very trusted by Xiao Zhiyan.

"Mr. Shen!" Xiao Wulang grabbed the article he just took out of his arms and hurriedly walked to Mr. Shen, "Sir, this is the article of that kid from the Xie family, sir, look at this article, what's so special about this article? !"

With that said, Xiao Wulang stuffed the article into Mr. Shen's arms, grabbed the official document in Mr. Shen's hand, and helped put it on the table of his second brother.

Xiao Zhiyan shook his head almost indiscernibly, and looked down at the article that Xiao Wulang had copied in his hand.

I only feel that Xiao Wulang is still a child and will only blindly compete with others.

Leaving aside the handwriting, Xiao Zhiyan was still surprised when he saw the content of Xie Yunchu's article.

He adjusted his sitting posture and carefully read every word in Xie Yunchu's text.

Xie Yunchu's writing is sharp, and it hits the point of the current disadvantages of the government.

It is almost pointed out that the imperial court allowed the fertile land to be abandoned, and did not adopt a national policy to encourage farming, which made the country's farmers unhappy.

It is also pointed out that the court's negligence in the management of fish and salt shipping, sitting on good water, but making the state not full.

If you say that Xie Jiarokuro is good at throwing the pot, it is all ingenious gadgets.

But at such a young age, Xiao Zhiyan was really surprised that he could have such insight in state affairs.
