Kou Zhun looked sideways and hummed a sound with his nose.
Kou Ji froze, as if he was being targeted by a tiger, and did not dare to move.
Kou Zhong stood beside Kou Zhun, winking at Kou Ji.
'Promise quickly, little ancestor, if you disobey the master, you will definitely be embarrassed...'
Kou Ji gritted his teeth and remained silent.
In later generations, he had read enough books for sixteen years.
Kou Zhun glanced around Kou Ji with his tiger eyes, and asked Kou Zhong surreptitiously, "Kou Zhong, I heard that Zhu Neng was transferred from outside?"
Kou Zhong glanced at Kou Ji, bowed his waist and said: "To tell you what I'm saying, at the end of last year, Zhu Neng was awarded the title of Military Envoy of Yongxing Army due to his meritorious service, and was transferred to Yongxing Military Road..."
Kou Zhun nodded slowly, "The Yongxing Army is located in the northwest, with the tribe of Xixia King Li Deming in the north and the Tubo tribes in the west. There are conflicts every year, and when conflicts occur, there are countless casualties. Zhu Neng was just transferred to the Yongxing Army, and his hands
There must be someone missing..."
Kou Ji was not stupid, so he could naturally tell that Kou Zhun was threatening him.
But he had to admit that Kou Zhun really pinched seven inches of him.
If you go to study, you may feel a little depressed, but you won’t have to die.
If you go to Yongxing Army, you may die.
Others may not know it clearly, but Kou Ji does.
Li Deming, the king of Xixia, will soon defy the imperial system and build an imperial palace.
In a few years, his son Li Yuanhao will rebel and establish the Xixia Dynasty.
By that time, the ambitious Li Yuanhao will definitely invade the Song Dynasty.
The Yongxing army is bound to confront the Xixia soldiers and horses.
Kou Ji's small stature was not strong enough for Xixia's iron kite to chop him down with one blow.
If you want to go to Yongxing Army, you have to wait until your wings are full before you go. You absolutely cannot go now.
"I'll go..."
Kou Ji spoke without hesitation.
Kou Zhun looked at him with a half-smile, "Where are you going? Yongxing Army?"
Kou Ji stood straight and said seriously: "I'm going to study at Taixue..."
Kou Zhun sneered and said, "Why don't you go down and prepare things for studying? Do you want me to prepare them for you personally?"
"No, I can do it myself."
Kou Ji bowed his hands and saluted, and hurriedly left the main hall.
Kou Zhun looked at Kou Ji's leaving back and said with a sinister smile: "Little bastard, I can't cure you anymore?"
"I can't scare you to death!"
Kou Zhun curled his lips.
Kou Zhong kept shrugging and snickering.
Kou Zhun glared at him and cursed: "Why are you laughing? Why don't you go down and help him prepare things?"
Kou Zhong said with a smile: "I just feel that the master didn't mean what he said when he faced the young master. Last night, the young master didn't come home, but you scolded him for half the night, and threatened to make him kneel down in the ancestral hall. Today.
When you met him, you were very friendly and had no intention of punishing him at all."
When Kou Zhun heard this, his face darkened and he became angry and said, "How dare you make fun of me?"
Kou Zhong quickly apologized and said, "I don't dare..."
"snort!"
Kou Zhun snorted coldly and cursed: "I am already sixty this year. I finally have a grandson. Why don't you allow me to get close to him?"
Kou Zhong chuckled and said, "You remember, little man, when the young master first arrived, you opened and shut your mouth and said that he was here to gain power and wealth."
Kou Zhun was furious and stood up by slamming the table.
"roll!"
Kou Zhong was so frightened that he ran away in panic.
When he escaped to the entrance of the main hall, he stopped again and asked: "Sir, the young master has found the rhinoceros belt of Babel. Should we lift the restraint of young master Kou Li?"
Just as Kou Zhun was about to agree, he thought of Kou Ji and changed his mind.
He said dissatisfiedly: "Such a smart little guy is forced to be thrown into the countryside and abandoned. He is asked to continue to kneel for me. After kneeling for seven days, he will be banned for another month."
"What if the young master asks?"
"You're not going to tell him?!"
"The villain understands..."
"..."
The front yard of the Kou Mansion.
Kou Ji ran out of the main hall and stood stunned.
I'm going to study at Taixue University...
I also need to study the Four Books and Five Classics...
Headache!
But it’s impossible not to go.
If Kou Zhun got angry and sent him to the Yongxing Army, it would be great fun.
Kou Ji wanted to resist, but after careful calculation, he found that he had little chance of winning.
Kou Zhun could kill him with one hand.
And if Kou Zhun's political opponents knew that Kou Zhun was going to send his grandson to the Yongxing Army, they would definitely handle the matter properly without hesitation, and even send a team of a hundred people to escort him.
.
"Just study, just study...ah!"
Kou Ji sighed, and he planned to go back to his room to think about countermeasures and make his life at Taixue comfortable.
He raised his head and looked around blankly.
He didn't know where to go.
Kou Zhun recognized his identity as his grandson, so the wing in the front yard was no longer suitable for him.
That's for temporary guests.
He is now considered the master of the Kou Mansion and should have his own yard.
Kou Zhong came out of the main hall and saw Kou Ji standing blankly in the courtyard. He came forward to greet him and said with a smile: "Young Master, I have arranged a courtyard for you. It is in the Sijun Garden in the east courtyard."
"The villain will take you there..."
Kou Ji nodded, followed Kou Zhong's footsteps, passed through the moon gate in the front yard, passed three corridors, and arrived in front of a garden.
There is a patch of bamboo planted in front of the garden.
The bamboo leaves are somewhat yellowed, and there are many dead leaves and branches.
The servants took scissors and were pruning the dead branches and leaves so that the new leaves could absorb more nutrients.
Among the bamboos, there is a cobblestone path, and at the end of the path is a curved moon gate.
On the top of the Moon Gate, there are three large characters carved in running script.
Sijunyuan!
After passing through the Moon Gate, I saw the plum trees planted in the yard.
The cold winter has passed and it is the beginning of spring.
The plum blossoms on the plum tree have fallen away, leaving only the bare branches swaying in the wind.
Behind the plum tree, half of the tree is planted with orchids of various colors, and the other side is planted with various chrysanthemums.
Each one is glowing with fresh green.
In the middle of the two flower arch guards, there is a two-story building.
The small building is made of wood, and the whole body is the withered yellow color of the logs. It is painted with a layer of tung oil and glows faintly in the sunlight.
"This is the garden the master has arranged for you. Are you satisfied with it?"
Kou Zhong asked from the side with a smile.
Kou Ji nodded, "There are plum blossoms, orchids, bamboos and chrysanthemums among the Four Gentlemen. The Garden of the Four Gentlemen is worthy of its name."
Kou Zhong smiled and said: "Young master, please take a look first. I will go down and help you prepare things for school."
Kou Ji smiled and said, "Thank you."
Kou Zhong left Sijun Garden with a smile, and Kou Ji walked to the small building.
Kou Ji raised his hand to push the door of the small building, but did not push it open.
After being stunned for a moment, I saw the door of the small building was opened from the inside.
A familiar and honest face appeared.
Erbao rubbed his sleepy eyes and said vaguely: "Master, you are back."
Kou Ji smiled and said, "You moved into the new garden before me."
Erbao said vaguely: "The housekeeper asked me to move in."
Seeing Erbao looking like he wanted to sleep even standing up, Kou Ji smiled and shook his head and said, "You go and have a rest. When you wake up later, Master, I will take you to visit Xiwazi City."
When Erbao heard about Xiwazi City, he immediately became energetic.
He widened his sleepy eyes and exclaimed: "Young Master is going to find Brother Zhang Cheng?"
Kou Ji nodded, "A drop of kindness should be repaid by a spring. If it hadn't been for Brother Zhang Cheng's protection along the way, we wouldn't have been able to reach Bianjing City safely. Although Brother Zhang Cheng is the kind of person who shows kindness without intending to repay it,
But we cannot be ungrateful."
"Then let's go now?"
"Not sleepy anymore?"
"I'm not sleepy anymore!"
"You, you..."
Kou Ji pointed at the energetic Erbao and shook his head in confusion.
