"Why are you here?" Xiao Chengjun looked at him, but did not move. The late autumn morning was a bit cold, and this warm embrace made him a little greedy.

"I couldn't sleep, so I came to find you." Lou Jing buried her face on His Highness the Prince of Fujian's chest, rubbed the moon-white underwear, and pulled a small bean through the fabric of the clothes with her hand.

Xiao Chengjun's breath tightened, and he hurriedly grabbed the groping hand, "Let's go back quickly before dawn." After saying that, he couldn't help but frown slightly. The words were a little awkward, but he didn't know what was wrong.

"The Yamen has just opened, don't be in a hurry," Lou Jing also put her legs on the other person's body, turning into an octopus and wrapping Xiao Chengjun completely.

I can’t sleep.”

When Xiao Chengjun heard this, he couldn't help but smile in his eyes. He reached out and patted the big furry head, "You're not a child, and you still want someone to sleep with you?"

Lou Jing raised her head and gently nibbled Xiao Chengjun's chin, "How about I move in with you?"

"How can it happen?" Xiao Chengjun let him bite him, feeling warm and soft in his heart, but he couldn't agree to this. If Lou Jing really came to live with him, he was afraid that bad words would be spread.

"Hmm..." Lou Jing opened Xiao Chengjun's underwear dissatisfied and grinded his teeth on the beautiful collarbone. He just couldn't bear to talk separately. If he really lived in the house, gossip would be trivial. If someone impeached Xiao Chengjun's ambition,

, arousing Emperor Chunde's suspicion would be more gain than loss.

"Your Majesty, it's time to get up." Anshun called softly from outside the door. Xiao Chengjun is now a prince and still has to go to court.

The daybreak is getting later and later. In spring and summer, the early morning is at Mao hour, and after October it is pushed to Chen hour. Even so, it is time for Xiao Chengjun to get up.

"Okay, stop making trouble." Xiao Chengjun rubbed his chin on the top of Lou Jing's hair, stayed on the bed for a while, and finally coaxed Lou Jing to let him get up. It was not far away from the morning time.

Le Xian and An Shun came in to wait. When they saw Lou Jing here, they didn't react at first and habitually saluted Lou Jing. Le Xian turned around and looked for Lou Jing's clothes. It took him a while to remember that this person was no longer the princess.

, why did it appear in the inner chamber of the palace?

Lou Jing smiled and glanced at the little eunuch Le Xian who had his mouth wide open. He took the imperial robe from Anshun and put it on Xiao Chengjun with his own hands. The royal robe was moon white and embroidered with eight four-clawed silver dragons. Compared with the embroidered golden dragon

The apricot-yellow prince uniform, worn on Xiao Chengjun, made him look cooler than before.

After accompanying Xiao Chengjun and eating some snacks, Lou Jing climbed over the wall back to Zhuque Hall, changed clothes, and went to Bei Yamen until His Highness the Prince of Fujian went out to attend court.

The Beiya Forbidden Army is mainly composed of the Yulin Army, and some other special Forbidden Army such as the Shenshu Camp are also among them, but the number is far less than that of the Yulin Army. The Yulin Army is mainly responsible for guarding the imperial city and is stationed in the inner city.

There are two thousand, and there are eight thousand in the outer city. They are under the jurisdiction of the general, the commander of the Habayashi Army. There are two captains of the left and right Habayashi troops, with the rank of third rank; and four generals of the left and right Habayashi lieutenants, with the rank of fourth rank.

The current general in charge is Uncle Qingyang, who is Lou Jing's uncle in terms of seniority. After entering the yamen, Lou Jing went to see Uncle Qingyang first.

Uncle Qingyang spoke to him pleasantly, "From now on, you will be the commander-in-chief of the left. You must not be as playful as before. The commander-in-chief does not have to go to the palace to watch the night, but you have to take care of the honors during the New Year and festivals." He said.

Then, he handed him a brochure of royal honors and asked him to take a good look at it and ask him if he didn't understand anything.

When there is no crisis in the imperial city, the Yulin Army is mainly responsible for patrolling the outer palace of the imperial palace and the emperor's guard of honor. In addition to supervising subordinates, the left and right commanders also have an important responsibility, which is to stand by the emperor with swords when he travels, and command the royal family.

Guard of honor. Therefore, not everyone can be a general. Appearance is the most important thing.

"Yes," Lou Jing took the brochure with a smile and took out a brocade box from his sleeve, "The emperor rewarded it a few days ago and brought it to Uncle Shi for viewing."

Uncle Qingyang answered with a smile, "You have been smart since you were a child, do your best." He patted Lou Jing on the shoulder and personally took him to meet his subordinates.

They said it was a courtesy, but in fact, these people were originally colleagues of Lou Jing, and they were all very familiar with each other. However, now that Lou Jing had been promoted to a higher level, it was natural to meet them again.

"I have met Lord Commander Zuo." The two lieutenants and several young generals saluted in unison. In the place where Lou Jing had been, stood a young man of similar age to him. He lowered his head and winked at him.

Zhou Song, the second son of the Marquis of Guanxi.

"From now on, Prince Anguo will be the new commander-in-chief of the left," Qingyang Bo pointed at Zhou Song and said, "This is Zhou Song, the second son of the Marquis of Guanxi, who was originally in the Shenshu camp."

Lou Jing smiled and thanked Uncle Qingyang, and sent Uncle Qingyang away in person.

"Loud, you didn't expect that, did you?" After finishing the handover, everyone went down to do their own business, and Zhou Song couldn't wait to come over.

"How much did your father spend to get you in?" Lou Jing raised her eyebrows at him. Most of the emperor's ministers like Yu Linjun were noble sons. The Marquis of Guanxi was a marquis with military power. His direct descendants

It's not surprising that the second son can join the Yulin Army.

"My father is still in Kansai, we have to do this on our own," Zhou Song poked his chest with his thumb and hummed, then tugged on Lou Jing's newly put on Zuo Commander's uniform, smiling with evil intentions, "Dang

Which one is more majestic, Commander Zuo, or the majestic Princess?"

Lou Jing narrowed her eyes and said gloomily: "It will make you more powerful to beat you."

"Oh, no, no." Zhou Song immediately apologized and smiled.

Ever since he was severely beaten by Lou Jing when he was a child, Zhou Song has recognized Lou Jing as his brother. However, his brother Zhou Chong is not convinced. He fights with Lou Jing every year and never wins. Not to mention, he is against Lou Jing.

Jing would only get beaten if he went upstairs.

Lou Jing smiled and said nothing. The Zhou brothers were not the playboys in the capital. They were really capable. Now the eldest son Zhou Chong was following the Marquis of Guanxi to fight the Tatars outside the Pass. The second son knew how to sneak into the camp.

I don’t know how many people are eyeing the position of Lang General. Neither his father nor his brother are in the capital. Zhou Song’s ability to climb to this position on his own is evident from his methods.

"Hey, Mr. Lou, to be serious," Zhou Song looked around, "I have something serious to discuss with you. How about going to Zuixian Tower for a drink at noon?"

Zuixianlou is a famous restaurant in Beijing. Lou Jing likes to eat drunken crabs there. Now is the time to eat crabs.

Lou Jing glanced at him and said, "If you want to go to the peak, you should do it slowly. You are too obvious."

"Who wants to curry favor with you?" Zhou Song spat and lowered his voice, "I have a deal to tell you."

Lou Jing curled her lips and nodded slightly, "Not at noon, but in the evening." The second uncle and eldest aunt were preparing to leave tomorrow, and he had to go to Pingjiang Marquis Mansion to help.

"That's just in time. Let's go to Yichun Tower and ask Yue Luo to sing a song." Zhou Song immediately showed a somewhat ungrateful smile, "I heard that there is a new upright official who is very pleasant. How about..."

Yichun House is the largest brothel in the capital. Zhou Song has always wanted to lure Lou Jing there, but Lou Jing's filial piety period has continued, and he has never had the chance.

"Very good," Lou Jing curled her lips, "I will go to Zuixian Tower to look for you at sunset."

"Okay, then I'll go first..." Zhou Song agreed with a smile. Watching Lou Jing flinging his sleeves and leaving, he suddenly realized, "Hey, why is it Zuixian Tower?"

Lou Jing ignored him and went straight out of Beiya and walked to Prince Min's Mansion. When passing by Zuixian Tower, he specially ordered a portion of Drunken Crab to be cooked and sent to the Prince's Mansion.

Xiao Chengjun came down from court and returned to the Prince of Fujian's Mansion. He saw Prince An Guogong sitting obediently at the dining table, waiting for him to eat. He rubbed his forehead with a headache, "Why are you here again?"

"Today, I suddenly remembered the drunken crabs from Zuixianlou, so I wanted to bring them to you to try." Lou Jing pulled His Highness the Prince of Fujian to sit down, looked into his eyes and said, "I will leave after eating."

As soon as these words came out, Xiao Chengjun couldn't help but feel a little distressed, and sighed softly, "It's okay if you come, I have something to tell you."

The matter of the Qinghe River is not over yet. People from the Ministry of Industry proposed that the Qinghe River is repaired every year, which wastes people and money. It is better to directly widen the river channel and connect it with the canal. This statement was also mentioned. The canal has been in disrepair for a long time and should be renovated.

.The matter is brought up again today, and Emperor Chunde has approved it.

"Building rivers?" Lou Jing bit a crab leg and raised her eyebrows, "Who suggested this?"

"It was brought up by the Ministry of Works, and Shen Lian was vying to be the supervisor." Xiao Chengjun smashed the crab claws with a small silver hammer and put them in Lou Jing's bowl.

The Right Prime Minister's faction and Shen Lian raised this matter at the same time, just to divert Emperor Chunde's attention and stop him from investigating the matter of the Imperial Temple in detail.

"Does the Ministry of Household Affairs have money to repair it now?" Lou Jing remembered Xiao Chengjun saying that the national treasury is not full now, and it will cost a lot of money to repair the river.

"The tax money from various places will arrive next month. Besides..." Xiao Chengjun's eyes were a little cold, "Someone mentioned that corvee labor will be collected."

Since ancient times, many wars have been caused by corvee labor. As soon as this statement came out, many ministers naturally opposed it, and the court became a pot of quarrel, and in the end there was no conclusion.

"What do you think, Your Highness?" Lou Jing took a bite of the fresh and tender crab claw meat, and then realized that Xiao Chengjun had knocked it for him. He couldn't help but curled his lips and put the freshly peeled crab roe into the bowl of His Highness King Min.

"Father is willing to build rivers." Xiao Chengjun sighed softly.

Emperor Chunde always felt that he was blessed by God and should do some great things that would be famous throughout the ages in his lifetime. He was naturally willing to renovate rivers, which sounded like a good thing that benefited the country and the people. But whether the corvee was collected or not, who would do it?

It's hard to tell if you come to supervise the work.

After lunch, Lou Jing wanted to stay and take a nap, but Xiao Chengjun kicked her out, so she had to leave the Prince of Fujian's Mansion without looking back.

Xiao Chengjun smiled and watched him go away, then turned to Chang En and said: "Let someone guard the side door at night. If he comes back to go through the door again, that's it." It's always too hard to climb over the wall.

The small side door is used to deliver food to the kitchen every day and will be locked at night.
