Chapter 268 Both civil and military
Mrs. He San took a look at the surrounding environment, she also had a frowning face, and said rather dejectedly: "There is no place in front of the village, no store in the back, this big family, how can you rest at night?"

"That's it!"

"Shou Taimiao was originally the work of servants, but now we are asked to do it!"

"I'm starving to death! What should I do?"

"My walking legs are weak, why don't you let us take a rest?"

Others also complained incessantly.

Seeing this, He Jiabei, who was carrying his seventh brother on his back, hurriedly comforted everyone: "Okay, okay, we are all one family, we share the burden with each other, let's divide the work!"

Mrs. He looked at him and said, "Bei'er, we all need to eat, how can we work if we don't eat?"

He Zixu, who had been silent all this time, scolded at this moment, and said, "Shut up! Are you still finished? Do you think you came here to visit the mountains and rivers?"

When everyone heard the words, they immediately lowered their heads and dared not speak.

He Zixu looked around, and said: "The inside and outside of the Taimiao have been in disrepair for a long time, and many things are waiting for us to do. That's it, first settle down and rest well, and work tomorrow!"

At dinner time, there were only vegetarian dishes on the table, and there was not even a single piece of meat. Everyone ate without taste or appetite.

Suddenly, a small cockroach appeared on the dining table, scaring the female relatives to scream again and again, but Mrs. He San acted very calm and mighty, and decisively slapped down the cockroach, killing the cockroach.

He Zixu said indifferently: "It's just a cockroach, what's there to make a fuss about, eat!"

After picking up the vegetables for a while, dust suddenly leaked from the roof and landed on the steamed buns, which made several people disgusted.

"This steamed bun is covered in ashes, how can you eat it? Really!"

Mrs. He San grabbed a steamed bun and said with a smile: "It's nothing to do with this steamed bun, just wipe off the dust on it, tear off the skin on the surface, and you can eat it!"

As she said that, she did it again, squeezed a small piece of steamed bun into her mouth, and said repeatedly: "I can eat it, I can eat it!"

Not long after, something happened again. I don't know when it was raining heavily outside, and the roof leaked.

Everyone hurriedly took away all the food on the table and closed the door.

At night, He Zixu went to watch the night alone with a lantern.

"Father, are you hungry? Mother and I brought you supper!" He Jiabei ran over with Mrs. He San, holding a tray in his hand, on which were some freshly dug out of the ground. sweet potato.

"Master, come and eat some roasted sweet potatoes to fill your belly." Mrs. He San passed the tray over and said.

And He Jiabei found dead branches and leaves, and prepared to light a fire.

But He Zixu quickly stopped him and said, "No, no fire is allowed here!"

Mrs. He San looked around and said, "Master, you don't have to worry, this place is big and spacious, nothing unexpected will happen!"

As she said that, she squatted down with He Jiabei and started preparing to light a fire to roast sweet potatoes.

He Zixu smiled helplessly and said: "Look, you two, mother and son, always have so many evil ideas!"

While He Jiabei was busy adding firewood, he raised his head and said, "Father, this is called having fun while suffering, and you will die sooner or later, what are you afraid of?"

He Zixu nodded at him, and said, "You bastard, you're talking nonsense again."

Mrs. He San agreed very much and said: "Bei'er is right, our He family has suffered such injustice, it is really a blessing in misfortune to be able to escape from death this time."

He Zixu glanced at her, and said: "You are really a woman's opinion. Our He family has been stigmatized and left with a bad reputation for thousands of years. This is more sad than copying and beheading all the families."

Mrs. He San retorted: "Then how many meritorious services have you made before, my lord, you are a great hero praised by the world!"

He Zixu lowered his eyes, and sighed with emotion: "Nowadays, I'm not safe at the end of the day!"

He Jiabei said convincingly: "We have a clear conscience, we were framed by others." As he spoke, he carefully inserted the lighted flame into the pyre.

He Zixu nodded slightly, and said: "Yes, based on your clear conscience, your father and I will support it. One day, this matter will come to light and I will be innocent."

He Jiabei waited on Huohou carefully, without raising his head, he just said: "But the evidence is so solid, it's harder to reverse the case than ascend to the sky!"

He Zixu said: "You are still young and have not experienced any storms. Victory or defeat is a common matter in military affairs!"

Mrs. He San hurriedly echoed at this time: "Yes, I want to see, that bastard who framed people, he can still be proud for a few days!"

He Zixu pointed at her happily, and said, "You are right, our He family will definitely be able to make a comeback."

The He family was starving and suffering in the Taimiao, but the culprit was Prince Jin and Wei Zhongbao playing the game of throwing pots with the emperor.

Prince Jin and Wei Zhongbao failed to hit the ball several times, and the emperor couldn't stop laughing. He waved his hand and said, "You can't do it, let me open your eyes!"

After finishing speaking, the emperor picked up an arrow, aimed at the small pot with a narrow mouth, and shot it easily, and hit the pot steadily.

Several people next to him immediately applauded and praised, "Your Majesty is really amazing!"

"One hit doesn't count as a hit." The emperor was overjoyed to be praised, and with great interest, he ordered his servant to fetch another arrow, let go and shot it, but it hit the pot again.

The applause around him became louder and louder, becoming more enthusiastic.

The emperor was so happy that he could not close his mouth from ear to ear, Long Yan was very happy, and he ordered the accompanying eunuchs: "Eunuch An, hurry up and prepare meals. I am really a little hungry!"

"Yes, my servant will arrange it now!" After speaking, Eunuch An bowed and stepped back.

"Please, Your Majesty, please, Your Majesty!"

Prince Jin and others surrounded the emperor and sat down to rest in the gazebo, drinking tea and eating fruits.

Taking advantage of this gap, Prince Jin cupped his hands and said, "I want to report to the emperor, I am busy preparing Chongwentang, so I have to retire first."

The emperor was slightly taken aback when he heard the words, and asked suspiciously: "I have already ordered the Shangshu to send more people, why is King Jin still busy?"

Prince Jin replied: "The project has already been completed, but I suddenly have a new idea. I wonder if the emperor will support it?"

The emperor nodded slightly, and said, "It's okay, Prince Jin."

Prince Jin said: "This Chongwen Hall is intended to cultivate talents. I am preparing to promote culture and education and recruit scholars. However, the country's talents cannot rely solely on scholars. It is best to have both civil and military skills."

The emperor smiled and said, "The king of Jin wants to train generals?"

Prince Jin nodded, and said: "Yes, originally the Martial Arts Hall of the He family could take on this task, but the Martial Arts Hall has been closed down, what a pity! I thought that if the Martial Arts Hall and the Martial Arts Hall could be combined into one, wouldn't it be Wouldn't it be better?"

The emperor nodded slightly when he heard this, and said, "Of course talents should be both civil and military."

Seeing this, Prince Jin hurried over and said, "Then, the four-year Jujutsu competition can also be continued? Wouldn't it be a pity if this competition was cancelled?"

The emperor couldn't make up his mind, pondered for a moment, then looked at the other officials and said, "Masters, what do you think?"
