The last court meeting ended three days ago.
The last five days of each year are the days when all officials rest.
The emperor can also have a good rest these days.
But this year's New Year's Eve is definitely not just an ordinary New Year's Eve for all officials.
On New Year's Eve, the portraits of the heroes of Lingyan Pavilion will be moved into Lingyan Pavilion.
This is the final conclusion of everything.
Many officials began to feel uneasy when they thought of this.
If the list of heroes in Lingyan Pavilion changes in the last few days, what would it be?
"Sir, what are you doing with such a big stone?" Li Ke looked at the man-high bluestone placed in the academy and couldn't help but be curious.
This bluestone was obtained by Zhao Chen asked them to find someone to go to another place a few months ago.
The quality of bluestone is excellent and it takes them a lot of effort.
Li Ke originally thought that Zhao Chen would use this bluestone to pave the road or something.
As a result, I saw Zhao Chen holding the tools carved by the Ministry of Works and knocking on the bluestone.
"This stone statue will be placed in Lingyan Pavilion." Zhao Chen and Li Ke explained.
"Put it in Lingyan Pavilion?"
"Don't the heroes of Lingyan Pavilion all have portraits?"
"Who else wants to use stone statues?" Li Ke felt a little strange.
Zhao Chen had painted every hero in Lingyan Pavilion before, and these paintings had long been sent to the palace for a dedicated person to keep.
Just wait for the Lingyan Pavilion to officially open.
But Zhao Chen is still carving a stone statue and placing it in Lingyan Pavilion. Isn’t it a bit inappropriate?
"Yes!" Zhao Chen nodded and continued to be busy with his work.
Li Ke was even more strange.
I thought to myself that Zhao Chen would not want to send his stone statue to Lingyan Pavilion.
But if you think about it carefully, it seems unlikely.
Although all those who can enter Lingyan Pavilion are the founding fathers of the Tang Dynasty.
But with Zhao Chen's contribution, even if he sits at the top of Lingyan Pavilion, there is no controversy.
The emperor once asked Zhao Chen if he wanted to go to Lingyan Pavilion as well.
Zhao Chen refused.
So the stone statue that Zhao Chen was busy in front of him must not be himself.
Li Ke didn't say anything, silently looking at Zhao Chen who was busy in front of him.
An hour and a half passed, and Li Ke saw the bluestone in front of him carved into the appearance of a thin old man.
"Sir, this person is..." Li Ke thought for a long time, but found that he had never seen the face in front of him.
"Old Yuan!" Zhao Chen put down the tools in his hand.
"Old Yuan?"
"Why have I never seen it before, and I haven't even heard of it?" Li Ke was puzzled.
He also said: "Sir, have you told your father about this? Which one are you going to put this stone statue of Mr. Yuan?"
Li Ke was a little worried.
He was worried that Zhao Chen would not tell the emperor about this, after all, the list of heroes in Lingyan Pavilion had long been confirmed.
There are people in every location.
It would be a bit inappropriate to arrange someone in suddenly.
"The first one, before Changsun Wuji!" Zhao Chen used clear water to brush the dust on the stone statue.
"Before Changsun Wuji?" Li Ke was shocked.
Zhao Chen arranged Hou Junji in the 19th place in Lingyan Pavilion, which made many officials feel unfair.
If you arrange another stone statue that you have never seen or even heard of before Changsun Wuji, then...
Li Ke no longer dared to think about it.
Zhao Chen's move will definitely be opposed by all officials.
I'm afraid I'll be in peace again.
"Sir, I feel..."
"Li Ke, do you think there is any stone statue that needs to be decorated?" Zhao Chen interrupted Li Ke and looked at the stone statue in front of him.
Li Ke looked over.
Then I saw the old man on the stone statue with thin appearance, his face full of the seals of time, but his eyes were bright and energetic.
If it weren't for the stone statue, Li Ke would have felt that the person in front of him was standing in front of him.
"Mr.'s skills are impeccable, but..."
"Tomorrow is New Year's Eve. Today, help me transport this stone statue to Lingyan Pavilion!" Zhao Chen smiled and stopped Li Ke from continuing.
Li Ke opened his mouth and looked at the stone statue in front of him, but he didn't say a word after all.
...
Tomorrow is New Year's Eve, and the people of Chang'an City are preparing New Year's goods.
There was joy everywhere.
Li Ke found someone and used two carriages to pull the stone statue out of the academy.
Many people on the road looked here.
Wei Zheng and Fang Xuanling were drinking wine in the Forget-Wait Restaurant, which was a reward for the hard work over the past year.
"Brother Xuancheng, tomorrow is New Year's Eve, and this year is finally over!"
"This year, I feel deeply tired!" Fang Xuanling raised his glass and confided with Wei Zheng.
Wei Zheng knew why Fang Xuanling said this.
There are only the last two days left in the ten years of Zhenguan.
But this year, there have been too many things happening.
Locust plague, smallpox, and the prince was deposed.
Every thing made them uneasy.
Fortunately, after going around, everything was on the right track.
The Chinese New Year is coming soon, and this year is finally over.
"There are too many things happening this year, and it is normal for Brother Fang to feel tired. Even I can go to the academy from time to time to relax."
"This year I'm also feeling exhausted physically and mentally."
"I think I'm old after all!" Wei Zheng smiled and clinked with Fang Xuanling.
"Xuancheng, you are one year younger than Brother Yu. You are just when you are young and strong, so you can't say these words."
"Otherwise, wouldn't I become a bad old man?"
"Haha!" Fang Xuanling smiled.
"Oh, the person who is almost sixty years old has buried the loess in his neck. Now I'm thinking, that guy Zhao Chen will cause trouble when he is young."
"Otherwise, I might not be able to live until my birthday." Wei Zheng shook his head and sighed.
I have known Zhao Chen for the past year and a half, but he has tortured Zhao Chen very much.
After going there for a few more years, maybe I will fall down first!
"That guy Zhao Chen, I'm really grateful if I don't mess with anything for a day."
"There are the last two days left this year. I hope he stays in his house and have a good rest."
"Don't..."
"Hey, that's not His Highness, the King of Shu from Chang'an Academy. How could he carry such a large statue?"
"Where are you going?"
Before Fang Xuanling could finish his words, he heard someone beside the table beside the window saying that Li Ke was passing by with a stone statue.
The two of them looked at each other, stood up and looked into the window.
They didn't hear that the emperor asked Li Ke to make any stone statue.
And this direction is obviously heading towards the palace.
As for the appearance of the stone statue, they had never seen it before.
"What's going on?" Wei Zheng retreated and sat on the stool.
"Who knows, as long as it's not Zhao Chen, what else to do, let me spend this New Year quietly, that's great!" Fang Xuanling smiled faintly.
Even Fang Xuanling was scared by Zhao Chen this year.
That guy never acted according to the routine, which really made him unable to defend himself.
Fortunately, his two sons followed Zhao Chen in the academy. No matter what, Zhao Chen had a good relationship with him.
If this were Hou Junji, it would be...
"Someone downstairs said just now that he and the guy in the team were acquaintances, and the stone statue was transported to Lingyan Pavilion."
"It is said that Duke Zhao Jun wants to put this statue into Lingyan Pavilion."
