Chapter 85: That person¡¯s warrant
When Fang Xie left Xi Huamei's room, he asked, Xi everyone, do you think Luo Yao sleeps well every night now? Xi Huamei was speechless, and even felt a faint anger in his heart. But when Fang Jie's leaving figure disappeared from her sight, she suddenly realized that if this young man could really do what Luo Yao did, shouldn't she be even more angry?
No one knows whether Luo Yao slept well or not.
But Rowan hasn¡¯t slept well for two days.
The top spot in the martial arts academy has fallen to him, but he is not happy at all. The young man who killed a dozen of his own slaves in a martial arts arena and then left quietly had been tossing and turning like a dream for the past two days. His Majesty the Emperor's decree has not yet been issued, and the official position of the fourth grade general has not yet been determined. This was also a reason for his uneasiness, but compared with that boy, this worry was nothing.
As long as that boy is alive, he will never be able to settle down.
His first name was obtained by fraud.
"If His Majesty the Emperor of the Sui Dynasty knew that he did not come up with the idea of ??joining forces to destroy the city, then let alone his qualifications for the top spot, he would be imprisoned for just one crime of deceiving the emperor. He had never met his brother Luo Wu, who was born after Luo Wu's death. But Luo Wu's incident has always been a shadow in his heart. He has asked himself more than once, if one day he makes a mistake, will his father personally cut out his heart like he did many years ago?
Every time he thinks about this, every time he asks himself, he will sweat.
Because he knew that his father, the left-wing general Luo Yao, a strong man who stood at the pinnacle of glory as a general in the Sui Dynasty, would definitely be able to do it.
"If his father knew about his deception, he could fully imagine how miserable his fate would be. But he couldn't bear the temptation of being ranked first in the martial arts academy, and he couldn't bear the temptation of going directly from the Fourth Rank General to the combat soldier. He heard from some secret channels that the imperial court might have a major military operation in the near future, possibly on the northwest border, and this year the top general of the Yanwu Academy would go to serve in the Youxiao Guard stationed in the northwest. This was a big deal. opportunity.
He is confident that he can definitely stand out in the war with his own abilities.
¡°Perhaps it won¡¯t be long before people mention him, Luo Wen, without adding: He is the son of General Luo Yao.
He wanted to get rid of his father's shadow and his eldest brother Luo Wu's shadow.
He doesn¡¯t want to be General Ronaldinho, he just wants to be General Luo.
Leaning on the chair in the study room, Luo Wen was in a daze as he watched the commendation issued by the martial arts academy on the table. He did not embarrass the Luo family Since Luo Yao's son entered the martial arts academy, he must take the first place. This is what his father Luo Yao said patting him on the shoulder when he left Yongzhou.
Luo Yao's son Thinking of these five words, a trace of hatred flashed in Luo Wen's eyes. From birth to now, no matter how many things he has done, no matter how successful he is. People will not attribute this success to his hard work and struggle, but to the fact that he is Luo Yao's son. Sometimes, people would even say with malice, Luo Wenis the younger brother of Luo Wu whose heart was gouged out outside Tai Chi Palace many years ago?
He does well, he succeeds, people will think this is normal because he is Luo Yao's son. If he fails, people will immediately jump out and ridicule: Look, Luo Yao's son is still exactly the same as the one who died before, he is an ignorant and ignorant playboy. It is natural for the general's son to succeed. No matter how much he pays, no one pays attention or praises him. But if he failed, he could only imagine how many people would stab him in the back behind his back.
His father¡¯s serious face was better than the gossip. Ever since he was little, he has never dared to sit face to face with his father or look into his eyes.
These things made Luo Wen miserable.
"Erlang"
Rowan rubbed his aching temples and asked in a hoarse voice: "Who is that person? Have you found out?"
"Young Master not yet. I don't have many people under my command now. They have all dispersed to inquire. But the imperial capital is too big. Looking for someone is like looking for a needle in a haystack. Please give me a few more days, Master." We will definitely get that guy out of Chang'an City."
¡°Have people in two places to keep an eye on him at all times. If he wants to expose that I deceived His Majesty, these two places are the most suitablethe Martial Arts Academy and the Ministry of War.¡±
"The Ministry of War probably won't go there."
Luo Erlang thought for a while and said: "NowAlthough the government suppressed the fact that the Ministry of War was attacked at night and killed more than a hundred military attach¨¦s, and the people did not know it yet, there were already rumors circulating. That boy should not go to the Ministry of War at this time. If it is true that he was tricked into entering the martial arts arena, then the person who framed him must have something to do with the Ministry of War. "
Luo Wen hummed, knowing that he was confused if he cared. Even Luo Erlang thought of this, but he actually ignored it.
"Keep an eye on the Yanwu Academy. Once you find that young man approaching, kill him immediately. Don't be afraid of killing a few of your men. Once you find him, you can't leave him alive."
"I understand."
Luo Erlang responded, hesitated and asked: "Today at noon, Mr. Li and Mr. Yu will invite you to have a drink at Hongxiu to celebrate your winning the first placeare you going?"
"go!"
Luo Wen nodded and said: "If you don't go, you will lose your grace. And I heard that Hong Xiuzhao was the first-class singing and dancing company in the imperial capital at that time. It disappeared for ten years before returning to Chang'an. That was when Prince Zhong Yang Qili rose The singing and dancing hall was the most elegant and romantic place in Chang'an City back then. I just don't know if the red-sleeved style is still the same after ten years. Anyway, I want to see it. "
"good"
Luo Erlang nodded and said: "My subordinates will make arrangements now."

? Red Sleeve Moves
Lanterns and festoons
This is the first day after Hongxiuzhao returned to Chang'an City and received the official approval after many days of preparation. Early in the morning, the servants recruited by Hongxiu swept the street in front of the house clean. Red lanterns were hung up, and red silk was hung all over the windows.
The most eye-catching and surprising thing is that after ten years, the Red Sleeve Move still has an unshakable status in Chang'an City. Just looking at the plaque in front of the door with the three characters "Red Sleeve Move" is shocking. . These three characters were actually written by Huai Qiugong, the Minister of Rites in the Sui Dynasty.
The servants in green clothes and soap boots were separated into two rows at the door, all of them were fresh and clean young men. The velvet carpet was spread all the way to the outside of the door, and this alone showed the generosity of Hong Xiu's move.
The auspicious time has not yet arrived, but many distinguished guests have already come to congratulate me.
The first person to come was Mr. Cui, the governor of Chang'an Mansion. He walked slowly into the gate with a few followers, carrying a screen embroidered with the Four Gentlemen of Plum, Orchid, Bamboo and Chrysanthemum. Xi Huamei took Mr. Cui in with a sweet smile. The two of them talked while walking and seemed very familiar with each other. This surprised the common people who were officials outside. People vaguely thought of the grand occasion when Hongxiu Zhao first opened eleven years ago.
Soon, people¡¯s expectations became reality.
Not long after, after the morning dynasty, the adults from various ministries arrived one after another. After the carriages with special markings arrived one after another, the eyes of the people were a little straightened. Compared with these adults, although some other distinguished guests who came to congratulate did not have any real power, their status was more noble.
Sanjinhou Wu Yiyi and the county prince Yang Kai came hand in hand. The two walked arm in arm and talked and laughed. Behind them were four or five important people who had the title of marquis or county viscount. These people with lots of money and plenty of spare time are very famous in Chang'an City.
Soon after Wu Yiyi and Yang Kai entered, an ordinary carriage stopped at the door. Huai Qiugong, the Minister of Rites, whose beard and hair were all white, was helped out of the carriage by a servant. Xi Huamei, who was talking to the county prince Yang Kai, Wu Yiyi and others, quickly came over and walked inside holding the old man's arm.
County Prince Yang Kai is said to be the cousin of His Majesty the Emperor. He is in his thirties and looks very energetic. His father was the late emperor's sixth brother, Prince Yang Mei of Long, who had died of illness. Yang Kai is not the eldest son and cannot inherit the title of prince. The one who inherited the title of prince contracted an unspeakable disease and died three years ago because he often visited brothels and brothels.
They, these idle princes, all have the same characteristics. That is, he will never taint the imperial power or touch the government, and would rather be an idle person raising flowers and walking birds. Therefore, several princes in the capital, including the only prince Yang Yin, all seem to be very talented and elegant people. They are proficient in all kinds of music, chess, calligraphy and painting because they have a lot of time to play, and they can learn whatever they want. What, you can¡¯t lose the face of the royal family, so you have to learn well.
Yang Kai, Prince of Xu County, walked over quickly, took Huai Qiugong's hand and said with a smile: "You are so old and you still come out to join in the fun. If you stumble on the stairs, you will be able to get up. They say you are pure of heart. Shasuyu, I think you are still obsessed with evil Are you still thinking about the Liuhuashuixiu from ten years ago? "
Huai Qiugong laughed loudly and said as he walked: "Your Majesty's mouth is still so sinister, that is to say, an old guy like me can withstand your sarcasm. But speaking of it, if it weren't for the sake of exaggeration?Shui XiuMy lord, will you come here early in the morning and wait eagerly? "
"You say I am the most evil person, you are just as evil as an old guy!"
Yang Kai smiled and cursed, pointed at Wu Dao and said: "Does Mr. Huai know this person?"
Huai Qiugong smiled and said: "Who doesn't know the famous Sanjin Hou from the Sui Dynasty?"
Wu Yiyi hurriedly saluted as a junior, and Huai Qiugong did not shy away from it and accepted it calmly. This made Wu Daodao very happy. You must know that Huai Lao is famous for being cold and hard-hearted. Most people who want to curry favor will be ridiculed and ridiculed by him. Since he is willing to accept Wu Daodao's courtesy as a junior, he has admitted that this person can interact with him in the future.
In officialdom, a small action often means a lot of meaning.
Xi Huamei walked in with a few people, looking down and out.
When he was about to enter the door, Huai Qiugong suddenly stopped. He pointed at the two servants in green clothes and soap boots standing at the door and said with a smile: "The red sleeve moves are even more refined than they were ten years ago. Look at these two The children who welcome guests are all so delicate and handsome. If such a person changes into a rich dress, he will not be able to let the girls who are getting married in Chang'an City see through it? "
The child standing at the door looked slightly shy, lowered his head and did not dare to speak.
Huaiqiugong laughed and said, "It's interesting to have such tender skin."
He leaned against the ear of County Prince Yang Kai and lowered his voice: "You love this one the most. Did you go back and beg for peace and let us give up these two children to you?"
Yang Kai blushed and coughed a few times to hide his embarrassment.
When Wu Yiyi saw these two children, a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes. With a subtle nod of his head, he followed the others and walked in. The child with red lips and white teeth also gave him a slight signal, but quickly turned his head to the side.
"Small waist sister"
This child asked another child next to him: "You look so beautiful in men's clothes."
"If you talk any more, I'll cut out your tongue."
The two of them were talking in low voices, unaware of the cold eyes across the street staring at Fang Jie. The three young men in brocade robes were of extraordinary appearance. Standing across the street, they could not help but admire the grand scene of the Red Sleeve Moves. The tallest and strongest one was Yu Xiao. He pointed to the opposite side and said with a smile: "People say that when the Red Sleeves were opened eleven years ago, nearly 80% of the court officials came. Today we saw this scene. I know what I said is true. You two, let¡¯s go in and take a look.¡±
Li Fubo hummed, his usual cool style.
The two of them walked a few steps but found that Luo Wen had not followed. They turned around and asked, "What's wrong?"
Luo Wen withdrew his eyes from the boy in green and quickly said with a smile: "Suddenly I feel that I am not on the stage. Look at who those people are. Even Prince Xu and Huai Lao are here, and I don't know who else is there." What more important person is coming?"
At this time, suddenly an entourage from the other side of the street shouted loudly: "Prince Yi is here!"
Prince Yi
Hearing these three words, the expressions of all the people and guests present changed.
Xi Huamei¡¯s expression also froze, but she soon recovered her smile: ¡°My lords, shall we go together to welcome His Highness Prince Yingyi?¡±
Everyone responded and walked out together, but everyone's expressions were a little unnatural.
Ten years ago
It was this Prince Yi who sealed the Red Sleeve Move with a piece of paper!
