Extraordinary monarchs and ministers (1)
Cheng Jinyi has been thinking about this for a day or two.
He Silang blurted out and said, "The generals go to the military camp and cannot bring their families with them. This is a routine in the court! If the third sister-in-law can go to the border, it is because the emperor is very kind!"
When it was his turn, how could he have such decent and holy relatives?
If he dared to have this idea, his biological father would not be able to forgive him first!
Cheng Jinyi whispered: "Listen to me first. I know that this is difficult, so I plan to write a letter to Mrs. Rong and ask her if it is feasible. If Mrs. Rong agrees, I will take the child to join her."
He Silang: "..."
This incident sounds a bit amazing at first glance, but when you think about it carefully, it seems that it is not impossible.
He Silang was moved.
If possible, of course he would also like to take his wife and daughter with him. There are also holidays in the military camp. There are two holidays a month, so he can go out to the military camp to get together with his wife and daughter.
This is worse than asking Cheng Jinrong for this matter. With Cheng Jinrong's holy relatives, he put a sentence in his letter to the Empress Dowager and the Emperor, and it may be done!
He Silang thought for a moment, calmed down and said in a low voice: "Don't tell anyone about this. Wait for the third sister-in-law's reply, and see what the third sister-in-law said."
Cheng Jinyi pursed her lips and smiled: "Of course. I am not a fool. How can I promote this kind of thing at will? Even if Sister Rong agreed, I will leave quietly in the future and try not to attract attention."
To avoid causing others to be jealous and cause trouble.
He Silang hugged her shoulder and whispered with a smile: "Aren't you going to take the imperial hospital to be a female imperial physician? If you really go to the border, you can't become a female imperial physician!"
Cheng Jinyi was self-aware and sighed with a smile: "My cousin Rong was admitted to the Imperial Hospital at the age of fifteen. She was the first place in the palace and became an imperial physician. My second sister-in-law took the exam for two years and also entered the Imperial Hospital Office. Now she has a good reputation. I have been taking the exam for several years, but I haven't passed the exam. It's because of my lack of talent."
"If I can't be a female imperial physician, I'd better be down-to-earth and be a good doctor who treats diseases and saves people."
"My cousin Rong has opened a clinic, and there is a shortage of people around her to help. If I go to the border, I will follow her to the clinic in the future."
The young couple whispered and did not go to bed until late at night.
The next day, Duke Ping asked him to send a letter to the border to report his safety to his son and daughter-in-law. Cheng Jinyi was shameless and also gave the letter he wrote to the personal soldiers who delivered the letter.
Duke Ping only thought that his cousins were close to others, and he didn't think much about it.
...
Three days later, Emperor Xuanping summoned Duke Ping to the palace to meet him.
Duke Ping took off his errands and passed the title to his son, but he still enjoyed the treatment of Duke in the court. When he entered Baohe Hall to meet the emperor, he did not need to kneel down and bow his hands.
Emperor Xuanping also respected this old minister who had been guarding the border for more than 20 years and personally stepped forward to help Duke Ping: "Duke Ping quickly and ask him to get up."
"You have made countless military achievements for the Great Chu to guard the border. Today I have no other intentions, just to meet the pillars of the Great Chu Dynasty."
Emperor Xuanping ascended the throne at the age of fifteen, and this year he was twenty-two. After sitting on the dragon throne for eight years, he no longer had a hint of youth and tenderness on his body, handsome and gentle face, and his eyes were bright. At this time, he looked at Duke Ping with a smile.
Duke Ping was flattered when he received such courtesy and did not dare to do so.
He returned to the capital ten years ago. The sixth prince was still young and had not yet shown his strengths. In a blink of an eye, ten years have passed. The young man who was once gentle and elegant is now the noble of the world.
Duke Ping was secretly moved in his heart, and Emperor Xuanping's voice sounded in his ears: "Old Duke please take your seat, I want to talk to you today."
Duke Ping came to his senses and smiled and should have been.
Emperor Xuanping first asked about the situation of the border army.
Duke Pingguo was in charge of the border army for more than 20 years and was very familiar with the situation in the military camp. The personalities and temperaments of dozens of military generals were well known. He also said it very pertinently about the combat power and shortcomings of each military camp.
Emperor Xuanping listened patiently and asked a few questions from time to time.
After Duke Ping was almost done, Emperor Xuanping asked He Qicheng and Jinrong and his wife: "Is it okay for cousin Rong and his cousin to be on the border?"
How experienced is Duke Pingguo? You can tell the subtlety of it at first glance.
Emperor Xuanping first talked about cousin Rong, which shows his importance to Cheng Jinrong. When talking about He Qi, he did not talk about his official position, but used the title of cousin husband. In other words, in Emperor Xuanping's mind, Cheng Jinrong and He Qi were his relatives first, then the Divine Doctor Cheng and the new Duke of Pingguo.
Duke Pingguo immediately smiled and said, "Jinrong opened a Cheng clinic in Guyuan Town, and the clinic is well-known. Everyone mentioned her and was called "Doctor Cheng". To be honest, the old minister felt that he had such a daughter-in-law."
Emperor Xuanping had known about these things for a long time.
After Cheng Jinrong went to the border, he would write letters to the palace every month. Every time it was a thick letter, and the letters contained daily trivial matters. Cheng Jinrong also often mentioned the matter of opening a clinic.
However, reading letters is one thing, but hearing them from others makes you feel different.
Emperor Xuanping's eyes became more gentle, his face was full of smiles, and his good mood was visible at a glance.
Duke Pingguo is actually not very fond of talking. However, the emperor likes to listen, and those who are ministers cannot keep silent. So Duke Pingguo said a few words to his daughter-in-law, and then mentioned three grandsons.
Emperor Xuanping was full of interest and asked, "A Yuan and Aman like to read or practice martial arts?"
Gong Ping replied with a smile: "Both of them like to ride and shoot more. Moreover, they are both good seedlings for practicing martial arts. Especially A Yuan, who can now shoot archery fifty steps away, and his strength is sufficient. Aman is not as good as A Yuan in practicing martial arts, so he is stronger than A Yuan when reading military books."
Emperor Xuanping laughed: "Okay, okay, when they return to Beijing to get married during the Chinese New Year, I will definitely meet you in person."
Speaking of the youngest Sanlang, Duke Pingguo said full of praise.
Emperor Xuanping laughed casually and said, "In a few years, let Sanlang and his brothers return to the capital together. I have always been thinking about Sanlang."
Duke Ping smiled and responded, but his heart muttered.
Emperor Xuanping seemed to be particularly concerned about Sanlang!
That's of course.
In Emperor Xuanping's heart, Sanlang was his future son-in-law, so of course he was closer. He also planned to wait until Sanlang became older and went to the palace to study. It was just right for Sanlang and Xijie to get along more.
Childhood sweethearts, and no one guessed. When they grow up, the marriage will come naturally.
Emperor Xuanping's wishful thinking was so good that he would never tell Duke Ping.
After a while, Emperor Xuanping said: "He Qi submitted a memorial a few days ago, hoping to replace the soldiers with brand new armor, weapons and bows and arrows, and also want to ask for tens of thousands of war horses!"
Duke Pingguo: "..."
