Chapter 201: Orders (4)
After placing the sleeping person under the quilt, Zhou Boyan asked Gu Shitou to fill up the oil in the lamp and brought a pot of hot water before he asked Gu Shitou to go to sleep, saying that he would guard Mr. Lu.

In the middle of the night, Mr. Lu woke up thirsty and shouted for water.

Zhou Boyan, who was playing chess with himself under the lamp, checked the temperature of the kettle, and it was completely cold.He thought that he could only make do with it, so he poured a glass of water and brought it to the kang, "Sit up and drink."

Mr. Lu struggled a few times, but failed to get up, but he seemed to be a little more sober, and cursed: "Stinky boy, can't you come up and help Mr.?"

Zhou Boyan cursed, "You are the only one who has too many things to do", put the water glass aside, he was already on the kang, helped Mr. Lu to sit up, and then passed the water.

Mr. Lu took the teacup with both hands and drank it a few times, then handed the empty cup out, "Too little, come again."

After drinking three glasses of water, he waved his hand and said no.At this time, he had already woken up seven to eight minutes, and began to curse people, "A bunch of bastards, go to the death of Mr. Guan, and there is no good thing for Mr. Chen. That old fox, Chen Yixun, saw that something was wrong, and immediately pretended to be drunk. Lie down on the table and can't get up. A group of bastards, waiting, sir will not let you cry and beg for mercy, sir, not even surnamed Lu."

Zhou Boyan put a piece of clothing on him, "What do they want to know?"

This question made Mr. Lu furious, pointing at his nose and cursing, "Stinky boy, your wings have grown hard, right? Don't you pay attention to Mr.? You actually kept it from Mr. about such a big matter. Ruler Now, bring me the sir's ruler."

Seeing that he came back to life, Zhou Boyan ignored him, walked back to the table and sat down, continuing to play chess.

Mr. Lu almost twisted his nose in anger, "Boy, tell me, which family's lady are you talking about? You don't even mention such a big thing as an engagement, and you even keep it from your husband. You are really good." .”

Zhou Boyan continued to play his own chess as if he didn't hear it.

Mr. Lu said angrily, "You boy, good job. That bastard Zhou Shangshu said to your lady, if you say no, don't, push it away. The queen pointed it to your lady, if you say no, don't, give it to me as usual. Pushed. You are capable, you are good, and finally ran to the emperor to tell the emperor that he fell in love with a young lady from a small family, and said that she would not marry her in this life. You can do it! Be honest, you are in love Which family's lady is it?"

Zhou Boyan felt that the princes and grandchildren of Da'an were too idle, and they came to Kangxi Town to gossip. "The third prince poured you wine just to know which lady I'm looking for?" He made it so obvious that these people still couldn't see clearly, did they calculate too much every day, simple things? It was thought to be complicated, too!Compared with these people who are full of twists and turns, Gu Ruixing, who is careless and careless, was the first to discover the clues.

Mr. Lu, "This is just one of them."

"Then let's talk about the second and third."

"Ayan, you must protect Shu girl and Yang boy."

"Ok?"

"If the guess is correct, the young minister of Sinong Temple will propose to marry Shu girl for his ignorant young son. The third prince must be behind this matter, otherwise he has no reason to have such thoughts." Speaking of this, Mr. Lu rubbed his forehead, "At a young age, he has already become like his mother, relying on his status as a prince to play tricks and tricks everywhere, he refuses to live in peace for a moment, and must make something to toss Toss. In Mister’s opinion, the matter of General Bu’s petition to return to his hometown is most likely related to him.”

Zhou Boyan's next son said, "Of course it has something to do with him. However, Mr. Bu not only doesn't hold grudges against him, but is also very grateful to him."

"Huh? How do you say this?"

"Isn't it good that I can safely withdraw from the court and enjoy my old age in peace?"

Mr. Lu lay back under the quilt, "Someone has moved his mind and wants to send Boy Yang to the Royal Academy. You can watch and deal with it." Then he turned over, "Sleep, sleep, what kind of chess are you playing in the middle of the night?"

Zhou Boyan played chess on his own.Since ancient times, the master has made great achievements, and the old man has been a soldier all his life. He naturally sees everything thoroughly and understands the truth of retreating bravely.In the past two years, the frontier wars have decreased slightly, and the younger generation has emerged a large number of talents, so Mr. Bu handed over his old age as an excuse to retire.Then, he immediately kicked out Li Haitang, who was arranged by the third prince to marry into Bufu, and showed the emperor that Bufu was only loyal to the emperor, and no one else would pay attention to him.

Loyal to the emperor, but not afraid of offending the prince, how many people in the world dare to do this?The emperor didn't say anything, but he was very satisfied with Mr. Bu's behavior in his heart, and his attitude towards the third prince became much colder.

The third prince was not stupid, so he naturally felt it. In order to save something, he acted a lot in a low-key manner, and he never missed any opportunity to show off.Just like this time, originally only two agricultural officials from Sinong Temple would be sent over, and not many people would know about it.But the third prince got in the way, and Mao proposed to take this trip, making the undisclosed Zaomai known to all courts, and left Beijing with great momentum amidst the compliments of courtiers. come here.

Perhaps the third prince thinks that this matter is done very well.But in fact, quite the opposite.

Originally, the emperor and Zhou Boyan had reached an agreement to wait until the early wheat was harvested, first to see the yield of the early wheat, and second, to see if the next crop could be cultivated normally, and then decide whether to publicize the matter.

Unexpectedly, the third prince publicized the unsure things, which made the whole capital full of uproar.The emperor held back his anger and sent the third prince out.If there is a good harvest of early wheat, it will be fine if it does not affect the normal farming, otherwise, what awaits the Third Prince will definitely not be a reward.

Zhou Boyan was like a mirror in his heart. Compared with the eldest prince and the second prince, the third prince was really not enough.The emperor was young, and it would not be a problem to sit on the throne for another thirty years.A wise prince would only hide his strength and bide his time, slowly accumulating strength quietly, instead of showing his ambition early and reaching out to the emperor's ministers under the emperor's nose.

Zhou Boyan was tired of this kind of fight, but he had to watch this kind of fight.Sometimes he sympathizes with the emperor, sitting alone in that high seat, seemingly able to look down on everything, and he is the only one.But in fact, the emperor also has the troubles of ordinary people, and there are many helplessness.But in front of Jiangshan Sheji, the emperor can only put those troubles and helplessness aside, and only when there is no one else can pick up the troubles of ordinary people, miss that one person, and recall some cherished but lost people and things.

He dropped the last piece and made an army for himself, then he took the chess piece unhurriedly, and said to the person lying down: "I'm going to sleep." Seeing that the person lying down didn't respond at all, He closed the door and went out, returning to his room.

Gu Shitou was dozing off on the table outside, when he heard the movement, he quickly stood up, wiped the suspicious liquid from the corner of his mouth, "Master, are you back? Would you like some water?"
