Chapter 902(1/2)
Xiao Yi agreed not to scare people, but he still scared Xiao Xun very much.
The first time the uncle and nephew met.
Xiao Yi was careless and didn't need to greet him. He went straight into the hall. When he sat there, he would be like Mount Tai to press the top.
Xiao Xun was like a little chicken, trembling and did not dare to say anything.
"Don't you know me?" Xiao Yi snorted.
Xiao Xun seemed to have suddenly been on the clockwork and immediately bowed, "My nephew has met his uncle!"
Xiao Yi said 'um' and his expression calmed down a little.
"If you call me uncle, I can't take advantage of you for nothing. Bring things up."
When the personal soldiers received the order, they saw seven or eight personal soldiers coming in with a bunch of gifts.
The small hall was filled with scattered.
Xiao Yi pointed to a pile of gifts and said, "These are all my wishes as an elder. I cannot refuse them, I must accept them."
"The elder dares not refuse, thank you uncle!"
Xiao Xun bowed again, his face a little nervous and happy.
Xiao Yi stared at him, "You have suffered a lot over the years, but fortunately, I have avenged you and drove away the Liu family. Now, if you have any difficulties or needs, take this opportunity to propose it. This general promises to meet your request."
Xiao Xun: “…”
He hesitated and acted uneasy.
Xiao Yi narrowed his eyes and said, "What do you want to say? A big man should be more straightforward and say something. Don't let people look down on you."
Xiao Xun's face turned pale.
He said bravely: "My nephew wants to enter the military camp, but I don't know if he is lucky."
Huh?
Xiao Yi couldn't help but look at him twice more.
"Do you want to join the army? It's very hard to be a soldier. I am worried that you can't endure this hardship. Moreover, I heard that you are doing a good job in the literacy class.
Is it not good to live a family and start a business in a safe life? What should I do? I have to be a soldier, and I have fewer separations with my family. Moreover, I am a general who is rigorous in the military, so you will not receive any care in the military."
Xiao Xun hurriedly said, "I have been a woodcutter for many years, and I can endure hardships. Moreover, I am alone and it is more appropriate to be a soldier. Also, I can do a book office and I can teach my brothers in the army to read."
Xiao Yi was silent for a moment, "You shouldn't go to the military camp, it's boring. Moreover, there is no shortage of books in the army. The wife has accumulated over the years, and the proportion of literacy in the army is not low. I suggest you teach with peace of mind, have the opportunity to take the imperial examination and take the civil service career. This path is more suitable for you."
Xiao Xun looked disappointed.
"Are there any other requirements besides joining the army?"
"No, no!"
Xiao Yi immediately stood up and said, "Teach well and find a woman to start a family and start a business soon. In the lineage of Andu Marquis, you are the only male left. I will rely on you for the succession of the family lineage. In a few days, I will send a letter to the Southern Wei court to restore your marquis and rectify your name."
Xiao Xun was full of surprise and screamed in fear, "I won't go back to Nanwei, I don't want to die!"
Xiao Yi angrily scolded: "What's the name? Shut up! No one asked you to go back to the Southern Wei Dynasty, just to clear your name and get your identity back. Otherwise, you will only be Xiao Xun, a native of the Northern Grassland, rather than a relative of the Xiao clan.
Or are you more willing to be a gangster and not willing to have anything to do with the Xiao clan? If so, this general will help you, and no one will think you are a descendant of Xiao Chengye from now on."
"I, I..."
He looked flustered and at a loss, and had no idea what to react.
Xiao Yi snorted coldly, "This matter is settled."
After saying that, he left.
It does not give the other party any chance to refuse to resist.
...
Xiao Yi really planned to clear his name for Xiao Xun and restore his identity as a member of the Xiao clan. He was not just talking about it.
This matter must be handled through Zongzheng Temple.
It is not enough to rely solely on Xiao Yiyan and Yunge to determine Xiao Xun’s identity, it does not conform to procedures, nor does it conform to legal principles.
He is just worried now whether Empress Dowager Yan will interfere with it.
"Empress Dowager Yan must have a grudge against you and me. When she was in the capital, her relationship with Li Bingting was average, and she might not agree. She would not agree, and Zongzheng Temple would keep dragging her back and not doing it."
Yan Yunge asked: "Have you ever asked Xiao Xun, is he still carrying the identity of Jade Butterfly? If he had the identity of Jade Butterfly, things would be easier."
"It's gone, I've been lost long ago. I've been hiding in the mountains and being a woodcutter for many years, so it's hard for him."
"Do you really believe he has always been a woodcutter?"
"It doesn't matter whether I believe it or not. I only look at my words and deeds, regardless of my heart. I only look at what he did, what he said, and doesn't care what he thought in his heart. You used to say that doing things is not the same as the heart, and there are many people who do bad things. It is also uncommon for people who do good things."
Yan Yunge smiled, "The habits of people in the world are all about their hearts and actions. As long as they are good at heart, they will be forgiven even if they do bad things. If they use evil intentions, they will be condemned even if they do good things."
"So we are exceptions! If we were the same as the world, how could we have today? According to secular ethics, we should be loyal to the Southern Wei court, and after conquering half of the country, we should welcome the little emperor to the capital."
When Yan Yunge heard this, he couldn't help but laugh.
She smiled and said, "If we were really loyal to the Southern Wei court, we would not have been today. As early as when the Salt Field Sugar Factory had just made money, and when Pingyang County had just improved, the court would have taken away power and went to Jianzhou to sit on the bench."
"So, we are very good at doing things. You asked Master Wu to build a house outside the palace to use it for daily living, and I thought it was great. Since the first time I saw the palace, I didn't like the atmosphere of the palace. I hate that place."
Anyway, he likes everything Yan Yunge says and agrees.
Whether it is said that he is brainless or obsessed with it, so many years have only proved one thing, and he is right.
He agreed with Yan Yunge's decisions, but the results were often good.
So, what reason does he have to object to her decision?
Don’t go against your wife who is prosperous and prosperous. The consequences of the family business will be to ruin your family business.
Some men think that fighting against their wives can demonstrate the authority of men and are very respectful.
Little do they know that they are all self-righteous.
Husbands and wife should respect each other, be in a polite manner, rather than just being alone.
If the husband and wife agree and hate the palace, then they won’t live in the palace.
So...
Master Wu received a new task order.
Reconstructing the palace is simple.
No need to be completely repaired.
Master Wu’s head is so big that it’s only been a few days since then something happened again.
Huh!
This is to force him to stay up late and be bald.
His son, Director Wu, didn't think deeply, but instead understood the truth.
"It is clear that Mrs. Yan and the general don't like to live in the palace. In their eyes, the reconstruction of the palace is optional.
Therefore, Mrs. Yan asked to build academies and government offices. Using academies and government offices as Feng Shui arrays will bring prosperity. This is reasonable.
The palace is gloomy and people die inexplicably all year round.
Over time, people live in the palace will be affected in some ways. No wonder, few people who live in the palace in all dynasties have lived longevity.”
"Don't talk nonsense!"
"My son didn't talk nonsense. In the past, my father often went to the imperial palace when he was an official in the Imperial Heaven Supervisory. My father thought about it myself, is the palace like a monster that swallows people?"
"If you don't understand, don't talk nonsense. The palace is a symbol of imperial power, how can you let your words be defiled?"
"My father also said that it is just a symbol. The key is to see who holds the imperial power. If you have power in your hands, you will also command the world without a palace. If you have power in your hands, you will only be a decoration, or even a cage."
"Without the palace, how can the wife and general be called emperor?"
Director Wu casually said: "Go to the altar to proclaim himself emperor. Or only repair a large number of temples near the Golden Palace. The harem does not need to be repaired, it is good to change it to academy."
"Shut up! I will ask my wife for the specific plan again. There is no hurry to rebuild the palace."
Anyway...
Mrs. Yan's main purpose is to rebuild the capital rather than rebuild the imperial palace.
The reason why the construction of the palace is put on the agenda is that the palace is also a treasure of the dynasty.
If it can be repaired, it will be considered immeasurable.
...
The northwest wind blew, drifting from north to south to above Jianzhou City.
Queen Mother Yan woke up from her sleep.
"Come, come! Where have people died?"
