"That's right." Lu Yaoye stretched out his arm to put his arm on Xu Junzhi's shoulder.
Taking a step back, Xu Junzhi was alert.
Lu Yaoye gestured with his eyes to come over.
Xu Junzhi shook his head in resistance.
Lu Yaoye tutted and pulled the person closer, put his arm on her and walked towards the sparsely populated alley.
Xu Jin hesitated again and again, picked up the things on the ground and followed him. The worst case scenario is to wait until you leave before throwing it away.
The alley is quite wide, and the two people stand face to face. Xu Jin knew that they had something to say, so he stood guard at the entrance of the alley.
Lu Yaoye said bluntly: "We need to use some strategies to win. There are twelve guards in the two armies, a total of twenty-four people. Which one is better and which one is worse, investigation and analysis are indispensable."
How could Xu Junzhi not understand the meaning of his words: "If you succeed in the challenge, you can directly join the Royal Forest Army or the Imperial Guard."
"It is under the jurisdiction of the two commanders." Lu Yaoye raised his lips. A smart person would know what it meant.
"In addition to the Twelve Guards, we also need to know the thoughts of the two commanders." Xu Jun frowned unconsciously.
They must investigate the behavior of their immediate superiors. If you have different ideas and different working styles, it will be painful for both parties to work together.
Fang Youan and Su Rui...
The choice that must be faced to become the Twelve Guardians. The two are equally matched in strength and status.
"When you arranged the blind date meeting, I found out a lot of things." Lu Yaoye peeled off the melon seed shell and put the kernel in his mouth, "Surui, Princess Xianrui of Yuanling Xi Kingdom. Killing her father and brother, cold-blooded and ruthless. Fang You'an, I was originally a slave, but after being appreciated, I rose to heaven in one step."
Cold-blooded and ruthless?
Xu Junzhi met Su Rui several times, and his first impression was that she was a pretty and cheerful girl. did not expect……
"Lingxi Kingdom was changed to Lingxi County. Although Gao Chen was the governor, Su Rui always held the power." The Minister of Punishment is very good, and there is a lot of information available. Lu Yaoye continued, "Comparatively speaking, Fang You'an doesn't do much. Wei Xuanyu will take care of it down there."
Wei Xuanyu, Wei family...
Looking carefully at the background of each official, Xu Jun knew that His Majesty's thoughts were as deep as the sea.
He said seriously: "From this, Commander Su only cares about the results, not the means. Commander Fang... is upright and strong."
Lu Yaoye laughed out loud: "What an upright and strong man. Did you know that Wei Xuanyu originally planned to marry Commander Su, and then it was approved by His Majesty and the Prime Minister of Yuan came forward to give advice. Wei Xuanyu naturally stood with Commander Fang, and his brother and sister Selected into the Twelve Guards.”
"Balance." Xu Junzhi saw clearly, "If the Wei family relies on Commander Su, one of the two commanders will be strong and the other will be weak, which will be detrimental to the court. For this reason, His Majesty can be said to be clearly showing the way for Wei Xuanyu. He is also smart, so he must There are enough benefits.”
Their situation is different from Wei Xuanyu's.
He has the strength, the means, and the background. Just because he is so capable...
Lu Yaoye shrugged: "Commander Fang is not suitable for us. A teenager is innocent."
Xu Junzhi agreed. The two leading forces are already balanced, they only need to consider whether it is appropriate or not.
His Majesty seemed to have guessed their choice at this time, and promoted Jiu Xi to be the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel. There are two ministers in each of the six departments, and neither of them comes from the same power.
Looking at each other, Lu Yaoye and Xu Junzhi had to sigh. Your Majesty thinks so far ahead and makes the next move before anyone else.
"I was born in the Jiuxi Judicial Yamen, and I am Commander Fang's right-hand man." Lu Yaoye took out a melon seed and said, "The official department..."
Xu Junzhi held up his hands and said: "In the evaluation of the officials in charge of the Ministry of Personnel, Jiu Xi and Bai Shifeng will be appointed as ministers. Your Majesty seems to be sure that we will choose Commander Su, and you will be the minister of the Ministry of punishment. There are two ministers, Lu Yu and Luo Su. And I am in the household department. , the other is Mr. Jiang Shanjiang."
Except for the Ministry of Works, which currently has only one minister, the details of the appointments of ministers in other ministries are terrifying. Lu Yaoye and Xu Junzhi looked at each other and remained silent at the same time.
Your Majesty is not afraid that they will see it, it is obvious. Even if the commander-in-chief recruits people with no background in the future.
There is still a judicial office under his rule. Xu Junzhi looked to the sky: "Your Majesty is really a good player at chess."
"This nationwide assessment will establish first-, second-, and third-grade armies." Lu Yaoye shrugged, "Your Majesty will make big moves."
"It should be next year." Xu Junzhi bit into a melon seed and inadvertently chewed the shell together. "It will take time to build passages and water canals. There is enough food and grass, and the army can leave. I think the 24th Guards will lead the army. , and fight all around at the same time.”
Lu Yaoye nodded: "Same. So we must win the assessment and join the Twelve Guards before we can participate in the battle."
The two looked at each other and smiled, understanding each other tacitly. Next, they collected information on the twelve guards governed by Su Rui, from strength to background, everything was detailed.
Finally, they targeted two people. They will definitely give their best in this assessment.
After the blind date meeting, many couples became married. There are many happy events in the city. It doesn’t matter if it didn’t work out at the time, we can see each other again later.
On the day Yuan Xixi got married, Yuan Wanzheng had not yet found the right partner and looked quite lonely.
He got very drunk during the wedding banquet. I can't figure out what's wrong with me, why doesn't anyone take a fancy to him?
On the way home, Yuan Wanzheng's steps were sloppy and he was about to fall. A woman supported him: "Are you okay? Is your family here?"
"Fourth sister, men and women cannot be intimate with each other." Dong Siqing came over quickly and pulled her away. Yuan Wanzheng stumbled twice and almost fell.
"Brother, he was drunk. He didn't mean to." The woman was Dong Sishuang. "Look, he is about to fall."
Dong Siqing frowned and asked his servant to hold him up.
Yuan Wanzheng tried his best to keep his eyes open, but he could not see the woman's appearance clearly due to his drunken eyes.
"Why did you run out without a hat?" Dong Siqing said in an unhappy tone, "You are a boudoir girl. What should I do if something happens?"
Dong Sishuang bowed his head in frustration. From Yingling City to Tianchong City, she had been in the carriage and was so depressed.
She used to think that women should stay close to home until they are old enough to get married. But when I came to Tianchong City, I walked around and participated in a blind date conference.
Only then did Dong Sishuang realize that the world was not like this.
Women do not need to wear curtains and hats and can walk on the street in an upright manner.
A woman can choose her future husband by herself until she is satisfied. No matter what parents order or matchmaker says, only you can make the decision here.
Working to support oneself and serving the country as an official, women are not bound by so many rules.
You can also be called "sir" respectfully.
"Brother, I am eighteen years old." Dong Sishuang's eyes were sad and determined, "I am not a child of several years old."
Dong Siqing was shocked: "What do you mean? Do you want to get married? Don't worry, my eldest brother will find the right one for you..."
"Brother." Dong Sishuang raised her head and looked directly at him, "I can make the decision for myself. Whether I look after my husband or work or live my life, I can be responsible for my own choices. I am weak, but not weak. I have many skills, and I am not useless. ."
His sister will grow up one day, but he doesn't want to let go. Dong Siqing choked with sobs: "I know."
He made the wrong choice to lose his father and didn't want to lose his sister again. He reached out and touched Dong Sishuang's head: "Do whatever you want."
"Yes." Dong Sishuang burst into tears and smiled brilliantly. She was once trapped in a world, but now she is finally able to fly freely.
Yuan Wanzheng was amazed by the smile like a flower in full bloom, and his soul seemed to be sucked into it.
He lost consciousness and was mostly drunk.
"Girl." Yuan Wanzheng broke free from the servant's hand and stepped forward, his eyes blazing, "Girl, I want to marry you."
Dong Sishuang was stunned.
Dong Siqing pushed the person away and said impatiently: "A drunkard dares to speak rudely. Drag him away."
Two servants grabbed Yuan Wanzheng and took him away.
He stared at Dong Sishuang, trying to break away, but he was too drunk and his body was weak.
Dong Sishuang looked back and smiled, amused by his silly look. Yuan Wanzheng heard the sound of his heart beating wildly and could not recover for a long time.
The servants left him to die by the roadside.
Yuan Wanzheng was lying under the eaves and suddenly smiled stupidly, thanking God for sending him a wife.
Two flowers bloom, one on each side.
Dong Siqing angrily said: "You are not allowed to associate with a drunken prostitute."
"Oh." Dong Sishuang agreed briskly.
I couldn't help but chuckle when I thought of that man's silly appearance. He really looked like an idiot.
Dong Siqing sighed silently and suddenly felt a headache. He would never allow his sister to be fucked by a pig, never!
The next day. Yuan Wanzheng sobered up and asked around for news about Dong Sishuang. He only remembered a vague image and could not describe it in detail.
There is no beginning or end, who knows who it is talking about.
I've been searching all morning and have no clue. Yuan Wanzheng is sitting under the eaves. Is this a dream?
Dong Sishuang went out to choose cloth with her friends and planned to try making clothes. She is good at needlework and has been selected to join the embroidery workshop.
Seeing Yuan Wanzheng when passing by, Dong Sishuang walked over with a smile: "Why are you sitting here? Are you still drunk?"
The sound like a silver bell made Yuan Wanzheng look up and see the beautiful woman with the light on her back.
He was speechless for a moment.
The friend looked at the two of them, covering his lips and snickering.
Dong Sishuang nudged her. The friend held back his laughter: "Master, can you tell me your name?"
Yuan Wanzheng looked at Dong Sishuang foolishly.
The friend stretched out his hand and waved it in front of his eyes: "Master, I want to ask you something."
After coming back to his senses, Yuan Wanzheng hurriedly stood up and said nervously: "My name is Yuan Wanzheng, I am not married yet. I only have my father and sister at home..."
Dong Sishuang and her friends were amused.
Yuan Wanzheng smiled sheepishly, knowing that he was in trouble. But he doesn't care.
"My surname is Dong and my name is Si Shuang. I have met Mr. Yuan." Dong Si Shuang bowed, lowered his eyes and smiled.
Yuan Wanzheng was in a hurry, wanting to help but not daring to do so. Dong Sishuang raised her eyes to look at him, turned around and pulled her friend away. How can there be such a stupid person, staring at others all the time.
"Miss Dong." Yuan Wanzheng chased after her, "If I want to see a girl, where should I go to find her?"
Dong Sishuang turned back: "I have just passed the selection of the embroidery workshop. If you need me for anything, you can come to the embroidery workshop."
"Okay." Yuan Wanzheng quickly took out the carefully selected hosta and handed it out, "It's a small gift. I hope the girl won't dislike it."
Looking at the jade hairpin, Dong Sirhuang didn't pick it up.
The stuff is very good and beautiful.
But you can't accept it if you don't get reward for your merits.
Yuan Wanzheng's eyes were disappointed: "I don't mean to be frivolous. I just saw the hairpin and thought it would look beautiful on you. So I couldn't help but buy it. It doesn't matter if you don't like it. Tell me what you like and I can buy it as a gift. You. I hope you..."
Dong Sishuang looked at his helpless look, and her heart palpitated. Reaching out to take the hairpin, she smiled: "Thank you."
"You're welcome." Yuan Wanzheng smiled sheepishly.
The friend looked at her, then at him, and gave her a gentle push with a smile.
Dong Sishuang bumped into Yuan Wanzheng's arms, feeling extremely ashamed and annoyed. Yuan Wanzheng hurriedly backed away after a moment of protection, blushing to the roots of his ears.
