In late December, the cold wave slowly subsided.
Although the weather is still very cold, it is warmer than when the cold wave hits.
Governors, governors, and generals from various states also came to Chang'an one after another.
The county official’s residence.
Yao Dan, who was lying on a rocking chair in the lobby reading a book, saw a figure as tall as an iron tower standing at the door, and he didn't believe his eyes.
He sat up suddenly, threw the book aside, and rubbed his eyes vigorously.
After seeing that the figure had not changed, he rushed forward excitedly and shouted loudly.
"Second brother, why are you back!"
That's right, the person standing at the door of the lobby is none other than Er Dan, who went to Luzhou to serve as the lieutenant general.
Erdan’s expression became more and more determined.
He put Yaodan on his shoulders familiarly and said loudly: "Master is going back to Chang'an to report on his work, so he brought me with him."
"Great, if Big brother will definitely be very happy when he knows you are back."
Yaodan said with a smile.
Erdan asked out of curiosity: "Yaodan, hasn't Big Brother come back from his duty?"
It's already past the duty time, and according to Big Brother's temperament, it's impossible for him to stay. Working in the palace is the way to go.
Yaodan waved his hands and said: "Eldest brother went to Liang Guogong's Mansion to study with Uncle Fang Xuanling. It will be a while before he comes back."
"I see."
Erdan nodded.
Then he strode into the lobby and carefully put Yaodan down.
He picked up the book of war on the rocking chair, scratched the back of his head and asked doubtfully: "Yaodan, when did you start reading the art of war? Can you read all the words on it?"
Yaodan raised his head proudly and said with a smile: "Second brother, don't underestimate me, I know all the words on it."
He was praised as a genius by the Imperial College Secretary. , of course, literacy is not a problem.
Hearing Yao Dan say this, Er Dan’s face showed a bit of embarrassment.
Because during this period, the master also taught him the art of war and took out a large pile of military books to teach him.
It’s okay to dance with a spear and stick on Er Dan, but reading a book is not equivalent to being called Zhang Fei Diaohua.
He would doze off after watching it for a while.
"You bastard, why are you back?"
Xi Qiangwei's voice suddenly came from outside the lobby.
Erdan was startled, then turned around and looked in the direction of the sound.
Xi Qiangwei has been eating better during this period, and has gained a lot of weight on her body. She is no longer as thin as before.
Moreover, she was wearing a simple and elegant round-neck robe, which highlighted her freshness and refinement..
When Erdan was in a daze, Yaodan was the first to speak for his second brother.
"Sister Qiangwei, the second brother's master will report on his work at the end of the year in two days, so he brought the second brother back with him."
Hearing Yao Dan's words, Xi Qiangwei pouted. , asked Erdan.
"Erdan, why didn't my eldest brother come back?"
She hadn't seen her eldest brother for a long time, and she missed him even more during the snowy weather.
When it snowed in the past, the brother and sister would hide in the ruined temple and warm themselves by the fire, thinking about a bright future together.
Now my original wish has been realized, but my eldest brother is not around.
Erdan rubbed his head and said, "Maybe after General Li Ji comes back, there will be no one to look after Bingzhou, and it is up to Junmai to take charge."
Li Ji pays attention to rules in his behavior. A lieutenant general would not take him back to Chang'an casually without an order.
But Cheng Yaojin is different. He is bold and careful in doing things and will not be bound by rules and regulations.
Xi Qiangwei said in a low voice: "Okay..."
After saying that, she turned around and walked absentmindedly to the front yard.
Yaodan pushed Erdan's back and said mischievously: "Second brother, Sister Qiangwei misses brother Junmai. You go and talk to her to relieve your boredom."
Erdan's face turned red and he said shyly, "Yaodan, I don't know what to say."
He has always been a person who is not good at words.
This chapter is not finished yet, click on the next page to continue reading.
Instead of asking him to comfort people, it is better to let him read and study, at least it will not be so embarrassing.
"Hey, second brother, why are you so stupid?"
Yaodan stamped his feet anxiously.
Then he waved his hands towards Erdan and said, "Second brother, please bend down and I'll tell you."
Like a little strategist, Yaodan leaned against Erdan's side. By the ear, give him advice.
After a while, Erdan asked doubtfully: "Is this really useful?"
"It is absolutely useful. Second brother, you have to believe me."
Yaodan clasped his hands behind his back and said confidently.
This is what the eldest brother said when he comforted Sister Lian. Now the second brother will arrange for Sister Qiangwei, and it will definitely be fine.
Erdan walked to Xi Qiangwei with a worried heart. He opened his mouth several times and found that the disgusting words were on his lips, and he was speechless and couldn't say a word.
"Pfft..."
Seeing Erdan's appearance, Xi Qiangwei burst out laughing.
She put her hands on her hips and said, "You bastard, do you have something to tell me?"
"No...no..."
Erdan quickly waved his hands.recognize.
Under Xi Qiangwei's disappointed gaze, he gritted his teeth and said, "I see you are unhappy, so I just want to take a walk with you."
"Huh."
Xi Qiangwei pretended to be annoyed and snorted.
In fact, I was secretly happy.
Why is this elm-headed mouth so sweet today?
When she looked towards the lobby, she found Yao Dan looking seriously at the torn-up copy of Sun Tzu's Art of War.
At the same time.
In Liangyi Hall.
Cheng Yaojin, Yuchi Gong, Li Ji, Zhang Liang and dozens of other people all gathered together.
Even Wang Jian, who was studying with Fang Xuanling in Liang Guogong's mansion, was summoned by Li Shimin.
Cheng Yaojin patted the chair and praised loudly: "Your Majesty, the Zhenguan fire bed you made is so good! The people of Luzhou all praise your Majesty's kindness!"
This cold wave made Luzhou, which was not cold at first, become extremely cold.
With the fire kang, the people all survived the cold wave safely.
Immediately afterwards, Li Ji, Zhang Liang, Xue Wanche and other people stationed in the north spoke out to praise Li Shimin.
After hearing the praise from his ministers, Li Shimin laughed and said.
"If you want to thank, just thank Wang Aiqing. He made the fire kang."
"In the face of the first cold wave, no people died. Wang Aiqing should First achievement!"
The governor who came back from various places in the past few days reported to him immediately.
No one froze to death in this cold wave.
Although many livestock froze to death, as long as the people are fine, that is the best result.
Wang Jian stood up and said humbly: "Your Majesty, I dare not take credit for my shame."
"This is all your Majesty, the ministers in the court, and the governors of the states and counties below. The result of joint efforts."
Li Shimin praised: "Wang Aiqing, you are still so low-key."
If it were a fool like Cheng Yaojin, you would have made such a big contribution. , Buttocks have already risen to the sky.
How can I look as indifferent as Wang Aiqing?
Li Shimin looked around at the civil and military ministers and asked with a smile: "Tomorrow is the year-end debriefing meeting. Have you all written your debriefing reports?"
"It's done." < /p>
The courtiers stood up and responded in unison.
Even Cheng Yaojin and Yuchi Gong, two idiots, answered loudly.
Of course, they did not write their work reports themselves, but asked their subordinates in the army to write them for themselves.
