"Huo Xiaolong, you have a bear? Oh my god, this is too much! Can I borrow it for a couple of days?" Young Master Sun saw that the bear cub couldn't even walk properly, so he wanted to take it home.

"You wish! Even if I agree, the little girl won't agree, believe it or not..." Before the little dumpling could finish speaking, a plainclothes girl jumped down from the wall, shouting.

"Anyone want to borrow my teddy bear? I'll break their legs!"

"Hou Xiangxiang, I've noticed you're getting fiercer. You weren't like this before," Young Master Sun said sincerely.

"I was foolish before, why are you taking it to heart?"

"..."

Miss Sun remained silent because she was looking for a place to start; she wanted to pet the brown bear sleeping sprawled out in front of her. She had never seen a bear before, and it looked so lovely to touch.

"Huo Xiaolong, can I touch it?" The little girl's voice was almost a whisper, as if she was afraid of disturbing its sleep.

"OK."

The little dumpling pounced on the bear cub's belly, buried its head in the brown bear's neck, and took a deep breath.

"It stinks. I'll have to wash it in a couple of days."

There are no rivers in Pingyang County. If you want to wash it, you have to go to a river deep in the mountains. But she doesn't dare let the bear cub go into the water. What if it catches a cold? She'll let it wash in the yard in a couple of days when the weather is warmer.

“Okay.” Hou Xiangxiang nodded.

"I just saw Hou Xiangxiang flip over from that side. What, is she your neighbor?"

"Yeah, she lives right next to my house."

"No wonder you two are so close; she's happy to be your friend," Young Master Sun said, nodding as if he understood.

"What's wrong?" The little dumpling was a bit confused.

"Because you have a bear, but my sister doesn't."

"..."

Wang Bin sat in a rocking chair watching the children babbling nonsense, reading his miscellaneous notes by the light of the tender green branches.

"Hou Xiangxiang," Sun Zixi called out the child's name.

Are you willing to be my friend now?

Look, I'm pretty good too. Although I'm not as skilled as Huo Xiaolong, and I don't have a brown bear at home, I'm a master at arguing. So, can you be my friend?

The little girl looked at her grandson Xi, who was sitting in the bear cub's arms, and said...

"We've been friends ever since you came to the county school and we became classmates."

Her cheeks, flushed as if from playing and roughhousing, were red from the heat. The little girl lowered her head, biting her lower lip and smiling. It was wonderful. She had finally become friends with the person she had longed to see for so long.

"Most people in this world have some prejudice against brothels, but madam, look at the girls in my brothel. They are both literate and skilled in martial arts. They can earn money and defend the city. They are my pride. Therefore, I must lead my daughters to live a respectable life."

The prefect's wife stared at Cen Ang's bright, phoenix-shaped eyes as he spoke, and nodded.

"If you need anything, please feel free to ask."

I want my daughter to live a carefree life too. Even if I can only do a little bit, it would be good.

"I want to open a brothel in Beining."

“There are still many women suffering in this world. Since we are in this position, we should help some if we can,” Hua Luan said to the Prefect’s wife.

"good."

The woman didn't say much, but simply offered the two a cup of tea instead of wine. Thus, the promise, worth a thousand pieces of gold, was made.

Zhao Kai, also known as Zhao Tanhua, whose courtesy name was Nian'ang, wrote a piece titled "Guarding Pingyang," which caused a stir among the scholars of the Great Yan Dynasty.

It turns out that when the country is destroyed and the family is destroyed, everyone puts righteousness first.

It turns out that when a race is truly on the verge of extinction, people of all social classes and genders can go to the battlefield.

turn out to be……

Their peaceful and wonderful lives are made possible by a group of people who work tirelessly for them.

Zhao Kai, Zhao Nian'ang.

“Lu Kai, this person sounds familiar,” Yuwen Xuanhong said to his eunuch beside him as he sat at the dragon table.

"He must be the third-ranked scholar during the ninth year of the Honghe era," the eunuch replied, bowing.

As the head eunuch in the palace, you must remember what the emperor can't remember, and you must also remember what the emperor does remember. To be able to serve as the eunuch by the emperor's side, you must have some knowledge.

"Is it that one? The one who almost got engaged to that other person, the one who was the maidservant next to that person?" The man asked, covering his forehead with his right hand and pointing his index finger at the eunuch with his other hand.

The Emperor has brought up this old issue again.

"Yes, she is the former Crown Princess's head maid."

"So many years have passed in the blink of an eye."

You can't respond to that. This guy is reminiscing about the past, but it's not a glorious past, and it's not something a group of lowly people like them can talk about.

"It's been so long since Youxin left me..."

"Your Majesty, please be careful with your words."

Yuwen Xuanhong smiled and said

"What? I'm already sitting on the dragon throne, is there anything I can't say? I'm the greatest in Great Yan, the greatest of all..." The man's voice trailed off as he looked at the seat to his lower right, lost in thought.

"This servant deserves to die a thousand deaths." Lu Kai was old, and he could clearly hear his knees cracking as he knelt on the ground. He continued.

"I have seen how hard you have come all this way, Your Majesty. You must not let the imperial family find any fault with you."

"Never mind..."

The man waved his hand, continued flipping through the memorials in front of him, and suddenly, as if remembering something, gave an order.

"Did Zhao Kai leave after that incident?"

"yes."

“Good writing, recall him.”

"What official position does Your Majesty wish to use to recall Zhao Tanhua?" Lu Kai asked, so he could submit a memorial to the Ministry of Rites later.

"According to this account of the war, he should be in Pingyang County?"

"Yes, this war report came from the border town."

"Then let's assign him to Wang Zheng and let him make the arrangements."

"yes."

Lu Kai walked out of the imperial study. The room was decorated luxuriously. The man gently touched the corner of the table, which was still so cold.
