Bang!

Several naughty boys were smiling and igniting their kicks under the Forbidden City Wall.

Then excitedly admired the explosion that bloomed over the imperial city.

"Go! Get out! Whose unlucky child is?"

The guards of the imperial city who were patrolling laughed and scolded and drove away, and the naughty boys ran away shouting.

"Unlucky boy!" The guard leader cursed again, but his face was filled with a smile.

"Boss!" A guard who seemed to have just entered the palace, at most seventeen or eighteen years old, looked at the direction where the naughty boys disappeared and asked cautiously, "Isn't you arrested?"

"Who to catch?"

"Those kids?"

"Why arrest?"

"At the feet of the imperial city, they set off firecrackers like this...if they startled the palace..."

"The people in the palace are not that precious!" The head of the guard smiled, "You said they were children, and it was not a big deal for him to set off firecrackers during the Chinese New Year..." As he said, he smiled, "When Emperor Taizu and Gao were there, he set off firecrackers for the children of the surrounding people! What's that matter?"

"That's it!" Another guard also said, "It's the New Year almost. When the whole world celebrates, there is no need to make a big deal about how many children set off firecrackers!"

At this moment, the guard's head suddenly changed his expression and he quickly walked towards the palace gate.

"Uncle, please wait!"

A carriage stopped in front of the Meridian Gate, and Zhao Shi, wearing a python robe, got out from inside.

Seeing the guard's head, he smiled and said, "Are you on duty today?"

"It's a humble position!" the guard smiled and said, "Are you going to see the emperor?"

"Yes!" Zhao Shi nodded reservedly, polite and gentle, but also with the majesty of a national uncle.

~~

After training on the Myanmar battlefield, Zhao Shi seemed to have lost his youthfulness in a very short time and became more and more like a man.

After passing through the Meridian Gate, before reaching the Qianqing Gate, a group of guards came towards him.

"Little stone?"

"Brother Qi!"

The team led the team was Zhao Shi's friend, the son of Duke Cao Li Jinglong, and the county Ma Liqi.

"How temporarily are you back?" Li Qi knocked Zhao Shi on the shoulder, "Don't you look for me?" As she said that, she looked at Zhao Shi up and down, with a little envy, "You are more energetic than before when you go out!"

"I just returned to Beijing the day before yesterday..." Zhao Shi smiled shyly, "You know that at my house, I just came back, and I don't allow me to go anywhere, as if I were afraid I would lose it. If it weren't for someone from the palace today, I wouldn't have come out!"

"Hey!" Li Qi waved his hand to the guards beside him, asking them to leave first, and then hugged Zhao Shi's shoulder intimately and laughed in a low voice, "Is there a lot of fishing for this trip to Myanmar? Hehe, I heard that all the people who went to Myanmar this time have been fishing for it!"

Zhao Shi smiled on his face, his smile a little bitter.

Because the tragic battlefield suddenly appeared in his mind, and the begging for mercy and cursing of the slaughtered people on the verge of death.

"I brought you something!" Zhao Shi shook his head and dispelled those emotions.

"What good thing?" Li Qi asked with a smile, "Don't it be gems or ivory? I really don't care about those things!"

The two of them have been friends since childhood. If they were outsiders, Li Qi would not speak so casually.

Zhao Shi smiled and scolded, "I know your family is rich!" As he said that, he paused, "I brought you two Yunnan horses. Although I don't look small, I have enough endurance to walk on the mountain road like a flat ground. I also brought you two Burmese gray dogs, which are amazing!"

Hearing this, Zhao Shi smiled and looked up, "I want to...I want to go to the firearm camp." As he said, he smiled, "I used to think that the most powerful army was the strong bow, strong crossbow, fast horse and iron cavalry. But after going to Myanmar, I found that the roving guns on the battlefield was invincible!"

"When I went to Myanmar, Meng Shengen brought five hundred musketeers! On the battlefield, these five hundred people were even more powerful than tens of thousands! They formed a front and back formation, and the enemy was unable to get close to them in no time!"

"I like the army?" Zhu Yunxi smiled, "I haven't thought about joining the sixth department and studying government affairs?"

Zhao Shi pondered for a moment, "Emperor, I am a relative of the foreigner."

"Don't do anything!" Zhu Yunxiu understood what Zhao Shi said.

There was a hidden rule that everyone recognized in the Ming Dynasty. Foreign relatives could be military officers, but they could never be civil officials.

"You like military affairs! But you should know that when fighting, you are money and food. Those who are in charge must not only be brave and resourceful, but also plan for strategy!" Zhu Yunsheng smiled and said, "After the New Year, go to the Ministry of War and follow Rusheng to learn military supplies!"

"I obey the order!"

At this moment, Xin Yande came in from outside when he didn't even look at Zhao Shi. He walked straight to Zhu Yunxiu and whispered in a low voice.

Suddenly, Zhao Shi noticed that the emperor's brother-in-law's face, which had just become more ferocious as Feng Xiyu, suddenly became a little hideous.

"Is this a determined intention to not let me have a good New Year?"
