It was dark, but the lights in the imperial study were brightly lit.
Because of the Mid-Autumn Festival, there were obviously a lot more memorials today. However, because Emperor Ning spent some time with Concubine Yun to celebrate her birthday in the afternoon, he had not finished correcting it yet. He pinched his eyebrows tiredly and looked at the table.
After reading the remaining memorials, he sighed: "I am really old. If I were younger, I would have been able to read all these memorials in an hour at most."
Bai Chang has always maintained the attitude of not speaking when he shouldn't. After all, he is just a slave and cannot help the other person become younger.
Emperor Ning slightly adjusted his sitting posture and opened another memorial. He immediately became interested when he saw the contents. After reading it carefully, he slightly raised the corner of his mouth: "That brat actually knows how to torture. It's interesting. However, I just
We plan to ask him to assist the Ministry of Works in promoting improvements in production methods such as salt production and oil production. Now, will it be okay to arrange the affairs of the Ministry of Punishment for him... That's all, that guy is young, and he should work harder when he is young, so as not to lose his mind by playing with things!
"
After he finished talking to himself, he picked up his pen and wrote the word "accurate" on the memorial!
After a while, Emperor Ning finally finished correcting all the memorials. He stared blankly at the candlestick not far away. After coming back to his senses, he asked: "Bai Chang, is there any news from the northwest in the past two days?"
Bai Chang bowed slightly: "Your Majesty, there is no news yet, but Tianxuan has sent people to investigate."
Hearing this, Emperor Ning's eyes flashed. Su Ling sent back the news a month ago that it would not take long to get rid of all the gangsters who were causing trouble. After such a long time, even if the banditry has not been eradicated, a secret message should be sent back.
That's right, he sighed with some worry.
Bai Chang quickly spoke to comfort him: "Your Majesty, there is no need to worry. Commander Su is extremely skilled in martial arts and will definitely destroy the villains and come back safe and sound."
Emperor Ning shook his head: "I'm not worried about Su Ling's safety. It's just that the northwest has become more and more chaotic after being stable for more than ten years. I don't know when it will be completely stable."
Speaking of this, two figures flashed through his mind, but he didn't dare to think too much and stood up slowly: "I'm tired, let's go to Ningyuan Palace."
"I obey!" Bai Chang responded and acted quickly.
...
One day later, the much-anticipated autumn hunt officially began. According to the procedures, it kicked off with Emperor Ning and hundreds of officials performing sacrifices in the imperial city. The sound was so loud that it could be heard on the streets outside the imperial city, and the people also talked about it.
talking about.
"Is it necessary for the emperor to engage in such a big battle just to go hunting?"
"Aren't you talking nonsense? Don't even think about it. Even the emperor has time to hunt, which means that our country of Ning is getting stronger and stronger, and the people's lives are getting better and better."
"If I remember correctly, it seems that His Majesty started such a big hunt in the first year of Shun'an. Five years have passed in the blink of an eye."
"Hey, I heard that His Majesty has been struggling to solve agricultural problems in recent years and has never had any time to relax. It was not until Tang Ji appeared that he proposed new strategies for agricultural reform to the court and solved His Majesty's worries."
"It turns out that Mr. Tang is really young and promising!"
"..."
Little did they know that Mr. Tang, who they regarded as a young and promising man, huddled in his bed and fell asleep after the sacrifice.
Suddenly, the door was pushed open from outside.
"Tang Ji, why are you still sleeping!" Li Yu walked straight to the bed and asked with a raised voice. After saying that, he stretched out his hand to lift the quilt and found that Tang Ji was looking at him with a look of resentment, his cloudy eyes were surrounded by black.
He looked around, and the bags under his eyes were a little swollen. He was frightened and couldn't help asking: "What did you do last night?"
"How dare you say that!" Tang Ji covered himself with the quilt again, closed his eyes, and complained: "I teach you criminal psychology to help you better judge cases. Who asked you to make such a big noise?
Your father now orders me to write down all these methods, and then he may even teach them to torture officers. Do you really think that anyone can learn this course?"
He was squeezed by the Dog Emperor two days ago and handed over the improved processing methods of salt, oil, sugar, etc., and now he is assigned an errand in the Ministry of Justice. He really doesn't treat him as a human being!
Tang Ji now feels that this dog emperor is the big boss behind this book, and the death of his old father-in-law must have something to do with him.
When the time comes to turn against each other, we will capture the Dog Emperor alive and torture him!
Li Yu scratched his head in embarrassment and replied with a silly smile: "I just want to help you make meritorious deeds. After all, your goal is to sit on the position of prime minister within three years. The more meritorious deeds you make, the better you will climb."
Hurry up!"
Tang Ji rolled his eyes and was too lazy to argue with him. He did not continue the topic and asked instead: "Isn't there a sacrifice today? Why didn't you go?"
"It's over. The Imperial Guards in the city have all set out and will probably leave soon. I asked around but couldn't find you, so I came to Ji Ranju." Li Yu explained, waving his sleeves lightly.
Tang Ji nodded silently, waved his hand and said: "I'm not going, you can go."
Hearing this, Li Yu took a small step forward and reminded softly: "Hey! Didn't we make an appointment? If you don't go, you will have to spend the next few days in the palace, so you will be busy!
"
After listening to his words, Tang Ji slowly opened his eyes. Instead of being imprisoned in the palace, he might as well go hunting to relax. Anyway, he was going back to Huaizhou after the autumn hunting. He would have left a few books for him.
Those messy officials should do their own research.
Thinking of this, he opened the quilt and got out of bed: "Okay, I reluctantly go with you."
"Hey, Qiu Lie is more interesting than you think. According to past habits, the two guys Li Qin and Li Xian will definitely start a fight or something, but now it's different from the past. Sister Yao will also go, with her
Yes, we are sure to win!" Li Yu added with a smile.
Tang Ji yawned: "You have to eat soft rice even if you hunt."
Hearing this, Li Yu snorted: "Hey, what are you talking about? I'll tell you..."
But before he finished speaking, another figure walked in from the door.
Tang Ji rarely saw Sun Yufu in the morning. He blinked and asked doubtfully: "Mr. Sun, is something wrong?"
"Well, something happened." Sun Yufu said seriously, glanced at Li Yu, and then explained: "An old friend of mine in the northwest sent me a letter. Someone is going to hold a Jianghu conference in Shuozhou, northwest.
At that time, the Jianghu Alliance will be established and a leader will be elected!"
Hearing this, Tang Ji showed surprise. He didn't expect that someone actually wanted to turn the things he wrote in his book into reality. People in the world respect the strong and the strong. Once a powerful alliance leader is elected, then
The situation in the entire world will be affected. If the other party is not a good person and causes peace everywhere and the people's livelihood, then he will be guilty of a serious crime!
