The seventh year of the Zhenguan era. With a thunderous bang, I transmigrated and became Wei Shuyu.
As the beloved son of Wei Zheng, shouldn't I be helping my father solve his problems?
Chapter 142 Wasn't he supposed to be here to cause trouble?
The next day.
Wei Shuyu got up and pushed open the door...
Choi Shin-ki and Jin Seon-do were exercising at the entrance as usual.
Wu Qiqi is not here.
As a young girl, she naturally had to accompany Samurai Go.
I reckon they'll be moving to the summer palace—Jiucheng Palace—today with the retired emperor.
Moreover, after dealing with Songtsen Gampo's affairs, Li Shimin will also move to Jiucheng Palace.
Summers are getting hotter and hotter, and there was no air conditioning in ancient times.
The royal family is very image-conscious, and their clothes are all long robes, so how could they possibly stand it?
Apart from the morning and evening court assemblies, all the smaller court assemblies throughout the summer will be held at Jiucheng Palace.
"Big pot..."
Choi Shin-ki immediately came forward: "I have bad news for you. His father has put the remains under house arrest."
"..."
Wei Shuyu's lips twitched.
This seems to be expected.
"Shandao, stop exercising."
Wei Shuyu suddenly called out to Qin Shandao, "Take a rest, and come to the military camp with me later."
"ah?"
Qin Shandao was taken aback: "But I still have to go to the Imperial Academy."
"I'm not going today."
"If I don't go, my dad will beat me."
"..."
Why were the methods of educating children in the Tang Dynasty so limited?
"Just say it was me who said it."
Wei Shuyu thought for a moment and said, "Today I'll take you to the military camp for special training."
Swish...
Qin Shandao's eyes immediately lit up.
He ran up to Wei Shuyu and asked, "Brother, are we going to cause trouble?"
*Smack*
Wei Shuyu raised his hand and smacked him on the head.
"Don't have such dirty thoughts, go and do something important!"
Qin Shandao covered his head, but his face was full of smiles.
Getting down to business?
I understand!
I gave Wei Shuyu a knowing look.
"..."
He used to be just a naughty kid.
How come you've lost your mind after hanging out with Choi Shin-ki for so long?
Look to your side...
Choi Shin-ki was seen exchanging glances with Qin Shan-dao.
*Smack*
Wei Shuyu smacked him on the head with his other hand.
"What's the point of having a mouth? To flirt?"
"Big brother, you speak with a lisp, and your teeth haven't even grown in yet," Choi Shin-ki said, rubbing his head in grievance.
Let's say your reasoning is valid.
However, I do not accept it.
*Smack*
He then smacked her on the head again.
"..."
I ate some wheat porridge and some flatbread.
The three went to the military camp.
Along the way, Choi Shin-ki chattered on and on about his great achievements.
Qin Shandao nodded repeatedly.
Occasionally, a longing look would appear in her eyes...
"Brother Jiji, you're amazing."
"Of course, I'll tell you..."
After traveling for half a day, the group arrived at the military camp.
After inquiring about their purpose, the soldier went to report the visit...
I thought they'd let us through quickly, but then a boy showed up...
He was also around ten years old, but he was almost half a head taller than Wei Shuyu.
He was covered in sweat, shirtless, and wiping his sweat with a towel as he walked.
"Wei Shuyu!"
The boy tossed the towel to the soldier behind him, his eyes flashing with intense fighting spirit.
Wei Shuyu's decisive victory over Cheng Huaimo has made him a public enemy among the younger generation of military officers.
Whoever defeats Wei Shuyu will become famous overnight.
"Who are you?"
Wei Shuyu felt that the face looked somewhat familiar.
"Brother, he is Yuchi Huan, Uncle Yuchi's third son."
Qin Shandao quickly explained.
"oh."
Wei Shuyu nodded.
I'm here to investigate a case, not to cause trouble.
He immediately clasped his hands in greeting and said, "You are very kind, Uncle Yu."
"Stop with the fluff."
Yu Chi Huan waved his hand dismissively, showing no mercy: "This is a military camp, where strength determines everything..."
After rattling off a bunch of nonsense...
"I, Yuchi Huan, challenge you!"
Wei Shuyu remained silent.
Another one who's all brawn and no brains.
“I am an official, you can put me in jail,” Wei Shuyu replied casually.
"Well……"
With just one sentence, Wei Shuyu rendered Yuchi Huan speechless.
After thinking for a moment, he replied domineeringly, "I know you've come to the military camp for business, but you're not getting in unless you fight me!"
well.
Wei Shuyu sighed: "Isn't it good to have all four limbs intact? Why do you have to ask for a beating!"
"What did you say?"
Yuchi Huan immediately became furious.
"Little Jiji".
Ignoring Yuchi Huan, Wei Shuyu shouted something.
"receive."
Choi Shin-ki stepped forward and then lectured Qin Shan-dao, "Little Shan-dao, today your brother Ki-ki will teach you a lesson on how to beat someone up."
"Uh-huh."
Qin Shandao's eyes lit up.
"Choi Shin-ki, what are you doing out here, you piece of trash?"
Yu Chi Huan was very angry.
Choi Shin-ki's incompetence is well-known among the younger generation.
Let me put it this way...
Beating Choi Shin-ki would be a shameful thing.
"Yuchi Huan, squat down and put your hands behind your head!" Cui Shenji shouted.
"Screw you, I want to challenge..."
He had only spoken halfway when Choi Shin-ki pulled out a sewn brocade.
The brocade was covered with countless seals.
Swish...
The moment the imperial sack appeared, the guards of the military camp clasped their fists in unison.
"What is this chicken-themed thing?"
Choi Shin-ki put his hands on his hips and laughed heartily, then shouted, "Sack! A royal gift!"
What?
Yu Chi Huan's eyes widened.
Has His Majesty lost his mind?
Why did I give you this thing?
"This is fake!"
Yu Chi Huan roared in disbelief.
"Fake?"
Choi Shin-ki pointed to the guards in the military camp: "Ask them if this seal is fake."
Yuchi Huan turned his head to look.
All the soldiers bowed their heads and clasped their hands in greeting.
“This…” Yu Chi Huan was completely dumbfounded.
"Yuchi Huan, squat down and put your hands behind your head!"
Choi Shin-ki laughed loudly: "Are you going to defy the imperial decree?"
"..."
Under Choi Shin-ki's repeated rebukes, Yu Chi Huan had no choice but to obediently comply.
Disobeying the imperial decree is impossible!
"Little Shandao, come on, let's do it together!"
Choi Sin-ki shoved the sack over Yu Chi-huan's head and called out to Qin Shan-dao.
"Ah-da."
Choi Shin-ki jumped up and punched the sack.
"This...isn't that a bad idea?"
Despite saying that, Qin Shandao couldn't help but walk up to her.
"See? Just follow my lead." Choi Shin-ki instructed, head held high.
"This...isn't this a bit inappropriate?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Qin Shandao jumped up: "Ah-da!"
Bang.
Huh?
It feels nice to the touch!
continue!
"Ah-da."
Ping-ping-pong-pong.
The two were fighting fiercely...
Yu Chi Huan dared not wail.
This is his father's military camp. If he dares to wail, the Yuchi family will lose all face.
"stop!"
Just then, a rough, loud shout rang out.
Then, Yuchi Gong, dressed in full armor, walked out of the camp.
Beside him was a little girl who looked about seven years old.
The little girl had slightly dark skin and timid eyes, yet she couldn't suppress her curiosity, her eyes darting around...
"Uncle Yuchi..."
The three of them quickly bowed.
Yuchi Gong snorted coldly, walked to Yuchi Huan's side, and raised his foot to kick him.
But considering the imperial seal, he put his foot down again.
"waste."
He took the sack and threw it back to Choi Shin-ki.
Choi Shin-ki quickly stuffed it into his arms, hoping it wouldn't be taken away again.
"father."
Yuchi Huan's upper body was covered in bruises, but because he was protecting his head, he wasn't seriously injured.
"Why don't you snatch the imperial sack and beat up that brat Cui?"
Yuchi Gong scolded him with exasperation.
“Father, this… it’s covered in imperial seals,” Yu Chi Huan replied unwillingly.
"What's wrong with the seal?"
Yuchi Gong glared and shouted, "Do you think His Majesty would stamp so many seals on a sack?"
"Use your brain a little. Even if you beat up that brat Cui and then hand over that imperial sack to His Majesty, it would still be a great achievement!"
Holy crap.
Is this even possible?
So all that beating I took was for nothing?
Turning his head, he saw that Cui Shenji and Qin Shandao had already retreated behind Wei Shuyu.
"..."
Yu Chi Huan was internally devastated.
"Shuyu, I'm so sorry, you must have found this amusing..."
When he looked at Wei Shuyu, Yuchi Gong's face blossomed into a chrysanthemum-like smile.
"Come, let me introduce you. This is my daughter, Yuchi Xiang."
Yuchi Gong pushed Yuchi Xiang forward: "Xiang'er, why don't you call him Brother Shuyu?"
"Brother Shuyu," Yuchi Xiang called out shyly.
"good."
Wei Shuyu seemed to have been prepared, and took out a lollipop and handed it to Yuchi Xiang: "Here, this is a gift for you."
Suddenly, Wei Shuyu reached out and pulled Qin Shandao close...
"Little Xiang'er, let me introduce you again. This is your brother Shandao."
Qin Shan said: "???"
Weren't you here to cause trouble?
