The continuous and urgent practice during this period of time made Lin Ze feel like he was in a trance and returned to the tight feeling of emergency review before the exam in his previous life. After the breakthrough, it was like finding out after the exam results that he failed a single subject. It was very comfortable and the whole person relaxed.
Come down.
According to the practice in his previous life, Lin Ze planned to take a short vacation for himself. The right way to practice cultivation is to relax and relax. Excessive indulgence in it can easily lead to the "obsession" that is usually taboo among Taoists.
Fortunately, Lin Ze knew a lot of ways to relieve stress in his previous life, such as listening to music, going for an outing, banging, banging, clapping, etc. Among them, his favorite was "eating and eating like crazy".
For some reason, Lin Ze suddenly wanted to eat lamb, roast lamb chops, roast lamb loins, and boil lamb meat, so he secretly stared at a group of horned sheep beasts, and while they were not paying attention, he knocked out a little lamb and dragged it with him.
He ran away, only to be spotted by a ewe.
"Bah baa baa!" The ewe immediately screamed several times, startling the sheep. A group of sheep raised their horns and came towards Lin Ze.
Dozens of horned sheep came galloping in unison, with a rainbow-like momentum and murderous intent. Lin Ze's expression changed, he picked up the lamb and ran, and it was like running in darkness.
After running for half an hour, Lin Ze got rid of the crazy sheep. But thinking about it, it was right for him to fight hard.
Lin Ze ended the fragile life of the lamb while it was still in a coma, took care of it, smeared it with the spices he had brought from Chang'an, and roasted the lamb happily.
At this time, Mr. Liu, Mr. Wen, and Mr. Li hurried over. When they smelled the roasted mutton, they couldn't help but take a deep breath and swallowed.
Mr. Liu stepped forward and said to Lin Ze: "Master Lin, stop playing around. His Majesty has an edict to pass on to you. Go and receive it as soon as possible."
Lin Ze was stunned. I've almost finished it. Is your imperial edict here? A trace of hesitation flashed across his face. Master Liu and the others didn't give him any time to hesitate. They directly pulled and dragged him towards the entrance of the camp.
Lin Ze watched helplessly as his roasted golden lamb, covered in grease, got further and further away from him, feeling heartbroken.
Da Qin accepted the emperor's imperial edict without the cumbersome procedures such as bathing and changing clothes. When the young eunuch saw the people arriving, he immediately preached: "By God's blessing, the emperor's edict said that Lin's Zize, who has always been smart, was pardoned and exempted from hard labor. He immediately rushed to Chang'an to read with his son Hu Hai.
, admire this.”
After Lin Ze received the order, the young eunuch immediately brought out a few good horses and said to Lin Ze: "Master Lin, please come."
Lin Ze was stunned and asked subconsciously: "Aren't you going to clean it up?"
The young eunuch had a serious look on his face: "Your Majesty ordered us to set off immediately upon seeing the order, and ask Mr. Lin to obey the order." The two guards next to him looked at Lin Ze with murderous expressions, and they had the intention of taking action without obeying the order.
Lin Ze had no choice but to say goodbye to Mr. Liu and the others, then turned around and mounted his horse.
The little eunuch nodded to Lin Ze with a smile, and rushed out, followed closely by the two guards.
After walking for a while, the young eunuch noticed that something was wrong. Someone was not following him. When he turned around, he saw that Lin Ze was still shouting for help, but the horseman ignored him. The situation was very embarrassing.
The young eunuch's face turned cold, and he patted the horse and turned back: "Master Lin doesn't know how to ride a horse?"
Lin Ze nodded quickly: "Well, I've never ridden one before. I've seen you all do this. Why doesn't it move?"
The little eunuch's face softened: "Then let's help Mr. Lin, Mr. Lin, please hurry up..." After saying that, he signaled to a guard, who nodded understandingly, stepped forward and slapped him hard.
On the horse's ass.
Lin Ze was thinking about how he could help him. Suddenly the horse ran forward. Lin Ze's body swayed. If he hadn't subconsciously grabbed the horse's mane, he would have been shaken down. Lin Ze cursed fiercely in his heart: "Damn eunuch, how bad is it?"
How bad."
It was much faster to ride back to Chang'an than to walk to Linyuan. Within a day, Lin Ze entered the city. When he arrived in Dongcheng, Lin Ze could clearly feel the difference in the atmosphere.
In the past, Dongcheng was a gathering place for the rich and powerful. It looked majestic and majestic, but a little less lively. What you could usually see were scenes of lords and young ladies traveling in carriages. When Lin Ze entered Dongcheng this time, he saw
There were many pedestrians coming and going, and there were obviously many more people riding horses and walking.
When Lin Ze returned to Ganquan Palace and saw Hu Hai, he finally understood that those were the great sages and their disciples who had been recruited from hundreds of schools of thought by Emperor Qin's edict, and they were also the smart people recruited by the officials from various places.
The younger brother is commonly known as "the one who accompanies the prince to study".
Lin Ze suddenly realized that he was still the escort appointed by Emperor Qin, and he had made a special decree to avoid telling the dead eunuch to me along the way.
However, Hu Hai was not happy at all: "Some time ago, my father said that he would find a teacher for me. I was quite happy at first. Who knew that none of the dead old men wanted to be my teacher? They all went to Fusu."
There it went."
Lin Ze asked in return: "Young master, have you ever asked your majesty what he meant?"
Hu Hai said aggrievedly: "Why haven't I asked? My father told me to choose one myself, and he would decide who I would pick and help me. But I am not familiar with any of those old men, and they avoid me, and I don't know either."
Who is good and who is bad? You can't shamelessly get involved. Oh, Lin Ze, stop asking and help me think of a solution."
Lin Ze's face became a little solemn, and he pulled Hu Hai aside: "Master, do you really want that position? Even if you are not happy in the future, you still want it? Master, please tell me the truth again."
Hu Hai was silent for a moment and said: "If you really sit in that seat, no matter how unhappy you are, it will be better than living under Fusu's hand in a life of embarrassment. Lin Ze, I understand what you mean. There are some things that you can't turn back after you've done them.
The young master doesn’t intend to look back either.”
Lin Ze looked at Hu Hai with a determined face and sighed inwardly, not knowing whether what he did was right or wrong.
After clearing the thoughts in his mind, Lin Zecai said to Hu Hai: "Young master, if you want to choose a teacher, why bother to look far away and look for those wild men who don't know what they are outside? I suggest that the master directly requests your majesty and pays homage to Zhongshu Ling Zhao.
Gao is the teacher."
Hu Hai had a troubled look on his face: "My master felt a little cold when he saw him. How uncomfortable it would be to be his disciple. Besides, he is just a servant and does not have a strong family power. Can I win a big position by worshiping him as my disciple?"
Lin Ze looked sure: "If you believe me, Master, just do as I say. Only with the help of Zhongshu Ling, Master can hope to win in the end." He said silently in his heart: "Isn't that right? In the previous life, you relied on me.
He just came to the top, but the end was not good, but in this life, I will plan for you to avoid tragedy."
In line with his long-standing trust in Lin Ze, Hu Hai nodded heavily and stopped worrying. After receiving a few instructions from Lin Ze, he went directly to find Emperor Qin.
After hearing this, Emperor Qin asked in surprise: "Do you really want to worship Zhao Gao as your teacher?"
Hu Hai was full of determination: "Yes, I have always admired Mr. Zhongshu Ling. Moreover, I dream of becoming a person like my father. Zhongshu Ling is my father's close servant. He knows my father better than others. Therefore, my son
I hope to be able to worship Zhongshu Ling as my teacher, and I ask my father to grant me permission."
Emperor Qin looked at his youngest son carefully and called a young eunuch: "Go and send Zhao Gao over."
Hu Hai saluted and responded: "Thank you, Father." He looked overjoyed.
Emperor Qin smiled coldly: "Don't pretend to be in front of me. Your acting skills are still a bit behind, but the trick Lin Ze taught you is indeed very good."
Hu Hai said in surprise: "Why did my father say this?"
Qin Huang said calmly: "Still pretending? You haven't thought of going to worship Zhao Gao as your teacher. Lin Ze, you should be careful. If one day you find that he is no longer loyal to you, execute him immediately to avoid being harmed by him."
Hu Hai was a little confused, would Lin Ze betray him? Thinking of all the suggestions he had made for him, he felt more at ease: I will not disappoint you, and you will not disappoint me.
Soon Zhao Gao came over. When he heard that Hu Hai wanted to become his teacher, he couldn't help but smile: "Young Master is serious. I am no more than a chamberlain. How can I be your teacher?"
After hearing Lin Ze's advice, Hu Hai kept his attitude low and immediately replied to Zhao Gao: "Hu Hai sincerely worships as a disciple. I hope Lord Shuling will not think Hu Hai is stupid."
Zhao Gao looked at Emperor Qin and saw that he nodded and agreed: "Thanks to the great love of the young master, I will accept this job."
Hu Hai immediately saluted: "Hu Hai pays homage to the teacher." Zhao Gao helped him up, and the master and apprentice looked at each other and smiled.
