The fish pond in the palace is actually a lotus pond, but there are fish in it. Due to the assassination of Prince Hong, his family members were no longer eligible to live in the palace. After moving away, the palace has been abandoned to this day. But now the servants and maids of the palace are all

They were temporarily transferred by the Ministry of Internal Affairs and knew little about the palace, so they didn't know what kind of fish there were in the lotus pond.

In the early years, I liked fishing because I lived in poverty. Fishing was mainly to satisfy my hunger. At that time, I was sitting by the river or pool and my heart was full of expectations. As long as the float moved, I might have meat today. Now I was sitting in the pavilion near the water and holding my hand.

Holding the fishing rod, I lost my previous mood. It seemed like I was fishing, but in fact I was sorting out my thoughts and looking forward.

The rapid improvement of his identity and status in a short period of time made him feel a little uneasy and a little scared. Once upon a time, he was a little cripple who lived alone in a mountain village and couldn't eat enough. Now he is the king of cracking soil, rising to the sky in one step, and even fishing is surrounded by maids and

Servants were waiting on him, and the huge contrast gave him a strong illusion, as if everything in front of him was not real.

As the saying goes, life can never be so satisfying, and everything can only be half-satisfied. But looking back at the time since I met Master, although I have suffered some hardships and suffered a lot, compared with what I have gained and owned, what I have suffered is nothing.

The ordeal was really nothing. Not only did he receive a generous gift from the richest man in the Tang Dynasty, but he also got good martial arts. The reason why he said he got good martial arts instead of practicing good martial arts was because his Hunyuan Divine Skill was very mysterious.

Once you master it, it will be done once and for all, even the process of meditating and practicing Qi will be saved.

In addition, I never dared to dream that I would be favored by Zhang Mo, nor would I dare to think that I could be crowned a prince. It was as if I had taken advantage of all the good things in the world. Such a life would be so smooth for me.

His luck is also ridiculously good.

Everyone likes good luck, but if you have ridiculously good luck, you will inevitably feel uneasy. He is a Taoist priest, and he understands the truth that things will turn into reverse if they are extremely prosperous. People cannot always be favored by God, nor can it always be smooth sailing. Life is full of ups and downs. He

I am very worried that I have reached the peak of good luck at this time, and may go downhill next, or encounter some unknown disaster.

How can we avoid possible disasters? Or to put it another way, how can we feel at ease even though we are at a high place? This is what we are thinking about at this time.

The ancients said that if virtue is not matched, there will be disaster. It seems that there is only one way to get God's favor, and that is to be virtuous. From the perspective of the cycle of yin and yang and the burden of heaven, the better the virtue, the less things you can bear.

The more you do, if your virtue is lacking, even if you temporarily stand on the top of the mountain, you will fall off the cliff sooner or later.

"Your Majesty, please bring in some fruit." Someone beside him whispered softly.

Hearing the sound, he turned around and saw a beautiful maid standing nearby, holding a porcelain plate with a bunch of freshly washed dishes on it.

Grape.

"Put it on the stone table." He moved his gaze back to the lotus pond.

Since the maid spoke in a low voice, she did not interrupt his thoughts and continued to ponder and ponder over the sentence about virtue. He wanted to practice virtue not because he was attached to power, but because he felt that God was really good to him and he could not

To bear it with peace of mind, you have to give something back, and now that I have resigned from the post of Minister of Household Affairs and Imperial Censor, it seems that I can no longer do anything for the people of Li.

At this moment, a slender hand suddenly appeared in front of him, holding a grape between his fingers.

After regaining consciousness and turning her head again, the maid blushed nervously and said, "Your Majesty, your hands must not be free."

After hearing what the other party said, I realized that I was holding the fishing rod in one hand and the bait in the other.

Although the maid's move was quite ambiguous, it didn't stop her from getting off the stage. She put down the bait in her hand and took the grape, "Go and do your work. You don't have to guard me."

"It is your duty to serve the prince," the maid said softly. "My surname is Lin Mingyi. She is a girl who entered the talent show this year. She is interested in playing music, chess, and music, and she also has a lot of admiration for the prince."

I was not surprised to hear this man's confession, because the atmosphere of the Tang Dynasty was much more open than that of the previous dynasties. Women were very generous in dressing and dealing with others. It was not unusual for them to take the initiative to speak to a man they liked.

As the saying goes, a vicious punch will not hit a smiling person. Although he was not moved, he did not dislike this person, so he casually asked, "What do you admire me for?"

"Your Majesty has great martial arts skills and is valiant and handsome, but what I admire most is your noble virtue." Lin Yi replied with a smile.

I was thinking about virtues before, and when I heard Lin Yi's words, I asked casually, "What virtues do I have?"

"Your Majesty is kind-hearted, truth-seeking and pragmatic. He corrects deviations without fear of criticism. He helps the world and saves the suffering without seeking to leave a name in history." Lin Yi said.

"Haha, am I as good as you said?" He asked with a smile. In fact, Lin Yi's words really spoke to his heart, because he did indeed do this. As long as it is beneficial to the country and people's livelihood, he will do it.

, don’t care at all how others evaluate themselves.

"Yes," Lin Yi smiled and nodded, "Compared with those gossips who seek fame and reputation, the prince is dedicated to serving the public and does not seek false fame. This is the true kindness and loyalty."

Without waiting for an answer, Datou hurried over and said, "Sir, Xiaoying has diarrhea.

What's going on?"

"What are you feeding?" He stuffed the grape into his mouth and picked up the fishing rod to re-hook the bait.

"Meat." Datou came over and sat next to him.

"What kind of meat?" asked.

"Excellent mutton." Datou said.

"The mutton is too tough and its stomach can't tolerate it," he said, throwing the bait into the water. "Replace it with chicken or fish. You can also feed more chicken offal."

"Oh, okay." Datou nodded. When he saw Lin Yi holding a bunch of grapes, he took it over and squatted beside him, "Sir, you fish quickly. I will take the fish you caught." ??

"I can't say whether it's fast or not, it depends on whether they take the bait or not." He said casually.

"Sir, I have something to tell you." Grapes are a rare thing nowadays, and they are reluctant to spit out their skins. "We also submitted our resignation this morning."

Hearing Da Tou's words, he frowned suddenly, "What resignation did you submit?"

"Both the Censor and General Yulin have resigned," Datou said casually.

Hearing this, he frowned and clicked his tongue, "Whose idea was it? Why didn't you tell me beforehand?"

"Guanyin's idea," Datou said, "she heard from Yang Kai that you resigned General Hussar this morning, so she suggested to us that we should resign Yushi and General Yulin."

Hearing the two of them talk about business, Lin Yi took notice and walked away.

"Do you know what it means for you to resign from office?" Shen Sheng asked.

"Knowing," Datou said, "means that we don't listen to the emperor, we only listen to you."

"You don't leave any escape route for yourself?" Keep an eye on the float.

"You are our retreat." Datou said.

"It's a bit reckless," he said. "If you act like this, it's easy for the emperor to suspect that I am forming a clique for personal gain."

"He can think whatever he likes," Datou disagreed. "The day before yesterday, you just said that you were going to resign as the Secretary of the Ministry of Revenue and the Imperial Censor. Yesterday, the imperial court impatiently sent someone to pick you up, as if it was afraid that you would regret it.

If you haven’t unloaded it yet, why don’t you let go of the donkey?”

"You are the donkey." He raised the fishing rod, but the fish ran away without catching it.

He didn't hang any more bait, but put the fishing rod aside, grabbed half a bunch of grapes from the big head's hand, picked them and chewed them, "You guys are just complaining about me after doing this for a long time."

"Yes," Da Tou didn't hide it, "You still have the skills to retreat bravely from the rapids. If you stay any longer, I guess people will be unable to wait."

I’m so ready to drive us away.”

"You are overthinking," he said casually, "The emperor has made me a prince. This is a great honor."

"The prince is not an official and has no real power," Datou said. "Anyway, we feel unhappy."

"Why do you want real power?" He returned the remaining grapes to Datou, "It's so good now. Without an official position, you are light. You must be aware of your interests and leave when you have to. Don't wait for others to chase you away."

"It's easier to send gods than to invite them," Datou curled his lips and said, "If you want to call us back when you need us, then it depends on whether we are willing or not."

"Okay, stop complaining," he hung up the bait again, "go back and feed your eagle, and don't slack off in your martial arts. It's rare to have free time, so you must seize the time to prepare. We may not know what we will encounter after leaving Chang'an.

.”

"Okay." Datou stood up and turned around to leave.

"Wait a minute," something suddenly came to mind, "the maids in the house are all this year's showgirls. See if there are any that you like."

"Thank you for your concern, sir. I'm like me, so I'd better not harm others," Datou Chong waved his hand, "Sir, you can fish slowly, I'll leave first."

"The Ni family's property in Chang'an should be dealt with earlier," he said. "Taiping Inn has packed up the Ni family's things and is about to leave. When the time comes, let them take away the gold and silver they have gained from the liquidation. The Ni family is used to it.

To live a prosperous life, we need to send them more money."

Before Da Tou could answer, Yu Yi's exclamation suddenly came from the front yard.

Hearing Yu Yi's cry, the two of them looked at each other eagerly, turned to cast their body skills, and hurried to go.

There was a lot of shock in Yu Yi's shout, and he immediately thought that the Japanese pirates were coming for a sneak attack. However, after he hurriedly arrived, he found that Yu Yi was pushing the door open and leaving, and there were no Japanese pirates nearby.

"What happened?" He looked around anxiously.

"Sir, I saw my little junior sister." Yu Yi was not used to changing his title for a while.

"Didn't you place her in a nunnery outside the city?" he asked doubtfully. Shifang nunnery suffered a tragic accident, and only one little nun survived. After he and Datou sent the little nun to Chang'an, Yu Yi placed her in the nunnery.

Went to the nunnery outside the city.

"Yes," Yu Yi nodded nervously, "I was just practicing the Zhengyan Dharma in my room, and suddenly I saw the nunnery where she was, so close and very real."

"Hey, sir, didn't you say that the Dharma Cang of the Right Eye can break through the void? Has Yu Yi mastered it?" Datou was confused and curious.
