Chapter 155: Master and Apprentice and Father and Son
The young man in front of him, not surprisingly, is the Son of Heaven after the Great Jin Dynasty, as the eldest son of the Taikang Emperor, there is Shanyin Xie behind him, and Li Xin is such a teacher, according to reason, as long as he does not die, the position of the prince is solid.
But it's not completely without opponents.
For example, the prince born to Concubine Hui in the palace.
The concubine Niangniang is Ye Mao's sister-in-law, before the Renchen Palace changed, one of the conditions that Li Xin negotiated with the Ye family on behalf of the King of Wei was that after His Royal Highness the King of Wei ascended the throne, he married a woman from the Ye family as a concubine.
This Concubine Hui gave birth to a son in Taikang in the fourth year, and she is now five or six years old.
In terms of influence in the military alone, the Ye family still has to beat Li Xin, if the princes of the Taikang Dynasty grow up in the future, the nephew of the Ye family is not without a chance.
Of course, this is all an afterthought, the Xie family and others may set their sights on the princes of the Taikang Dynasty, but Li Xin's vision is much higher than theirs, he doesn't care much about these young princes, and he is not ready to pin his hopes on these princes.
Hearing the prince's words, the Marquis of Jing'an smiled at His Royal Highness the Prince.
"It's better to rely on no one than on yourself, okay, Your Highness will be sent here, and if I don't leave, the sun will sink in the west."
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince nodded, took two steps back, and looked at Li Xin deeply.
"Uncle will go early and return early, and my nephew is still waiting to go to the Hou Mansion to ask my uncle for knowledge."
Li Xin smiled slightly.
"The gentlemen in the East Palace are much more knowledgeable than me, and it is only right for Your Highness to consult with them."
As he spoke, Li Xin arched his hand at the prince, turned around and got into the carriage, and His Royal Highness the prince held a disciple salute and said goodbye to Li Xin's carriage again.
With Chen Sixteen's loud whip, the black carriage slowly moved forward.
Li Shuo, who was dressed in cotton clothes in the carriage, glanced at Li Xin, who was sitting opposite him, with some envy, and said with emotion: "My brother's status in the Great Jin Dynasty is much better than that of my eldest father. ”
Whether it is a civil servant or a military general, if he can achieve the level of "emperor", even if his life is complete, even if it is Chen Guogong Ye Sheng, there is no student who is the emperor, which shows that it is difficult.
Of course, this is also because Old Man Ye has been closed off for decades and doesn't communicate much with outsiders, otherwise whether it is the period of Emperor Wu or the Chengde Dynasty, it is probably not a problem to accept an emperor student.
Li Xin's face was calm.
"The higher you stand, the greater the risk you have to take, if I am a third- or fourth-grade official, the worst outcome in the future is to be dismissed from office and rushed back to my hometown in Yongzhou, but if something happens to me at this time, I am afraid that at least it will be a full house of beheading."
Li Shuo shook his head.
"The things in the officialdom, the younger brother doesn't understand very well."
"No matter where you are, you are dealing with people, and you don't understand anything."
Li Xin's face was calm.
"You can control tens of thousands of Pingnan troops, as well as more than 100,000 of their families, it shows that you are not small, even if you are thrown into the imperial court, you are familiar with it for a year or two, and you can eat well."
Li Shuo smiled and didn't say anything.
Just as the two of them were talking, the sound of horses' hooves near the carriage was loud, Li Xinjiu was in the army, and immediately knew that there was a cavalry chasing them, he frowned slightly, lifted the curtain and looked back, only to see a group of black-clothed Yulin guards, about a hundred horsemen, running towards them.
In Yulinwei, there are only three or four hundred horses in total, and these more than 100 horses are nearly half of the knights of Yulinwei.
The person who took the lead was none other than Xie Dai, who had greeted Li Xin earlier.
The carriage naturally couldn't outrun the horses, and soon, Xie Dai and the others were about to catch up, Li Xin signaled Chen Sixteen to stop the horse, and then waited quietly on the side of the road.
After Xie Dai and the others approached, they all turned over from their horses, and Li Xin went out from the curtain on the side of the carriage and said indifferently to Xie Dai: "What, Uncle Guo is here to arrest me back?" ”
Xie Dai shook his head again and again.
"Master Hou misunderstood."
Xie Dai's face was respectful, and he said in a deep voice: "Hou Ye is the pillar of the country, it is inevitable that there will be people with ghosts in their hearts who have bad intentions towards Hou Ye, and the lower officials entered the palace to ask His Majesty, and His Majesty ordered him to bring half of Yu Linwei's cavalry battalion, follow Hou Ye to the left, and protect Hou Ye closely." ”
Li Xin looked at Xie Dai in some surprise.
"You're going to the southwest with me?"
Xie Dai bowed his head and said, "Where Master Hou goes, we will follow." ”
Li Xin first looked at the more than 100 Yu Linlang dressed in familiar black armor, and then a smile appeared on his face.
"That's it, you just like to follow."
As he spoke, he closed the curtain and instructed Chen Sixteen, "Keep walking." ”
The carriage started again, and Li Shuo, who was sitting in the carriage, also lifted the curtain and quietly glanced at the black-armored feather Lin Wei who was following the carriage, and after looking at it for a while, he retracted his head, and then whispered to Li Xin: "Brother, ...... are they?" ”
"Didn't they say it?"
Li Xin stretched his waist, half-lay down in the wide carriage, and said indifferently: "It's here to protect me." ”
"Of course, by the way, help Your Majesty watch me."
Speaking of this, Li Xin yawned.
"This young man of the Xie family is not in a hurry when encountering problems, he has a basis for advancing and retreating, he has rules for doing things, and more importantly, he is not afraid of death."
Marquis Jing'an slowly closed his eyes.
"He's a brilliant young man."
In fact, in terms of age, Li Xin is only one or two years older than Xie Dai, and the two of them are actually the same age, but because of the disparity in status and the different positions they stand, Li Xin subconsciously regarded him as a descendant.
After Li Shuo heard Li Xin's muttering words, he stretched out his head again, glanced at Xie Dai who was following the carriage, and then shrank back again and muttered to himself.
"If you dare to run to the southwest at this time, you are indeed not afraid of death."
"But what's the use of not being afraid of death, when you get to the southwest, it's likely that you'll really die......"
He muttered to himself, and also followed Li Xin's example, and fell crooked in the carriage, closing his eyes and resting.
A carriage and more than 100 Yu Linwei walked all the way to the southwest from the west gate of the capital.
In this scene, in the first year of Taikang, Li Xin, who was a young marquis, returned to his hometown with two hundred Lin Wei and brocade clothes.
Even the direction is pretty much the same.
It's just that the relationship between Li Xin and the Son of Heaven at this time is no longer the same as nine years ago.
…………
After Li Xin and others left the capital, His Royal Highness the Prince, who saw off him at the city gate, also returned to the palace under the leadership of Xiao Zheng, and entered the Weiyang Palace to return to the Son of Heaven.
He is the eldest son of the Son of Heaven, although he lives in the East Palace, but Weiyang Palace also comes often, and he does not need to be informed, and he is familiar all the way into the study of the Son of Heaven.
As soon as he pushed the door, before he could say the word "father", he saw that his father, under the service of the little eunuch Xiao Huai, was taking a pill.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince stepped up, looked at the Son of Heaven's somewhat unsightly face, and asked, "Father, what's wrong with you?" ”
"No problem."
The Son of Heaven waved his hand, frowned, and said, "It's just some body-strengthening pills, why are you so unruly that you broke in without notification?" ”
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince didn't care too much, and said with a smile: "Xiao Zheng he walked too slowly, so the child didn't wait for him and ran in by himself." ”
A thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy likes to run and jump, and Xiao Zheng naturally can't keep up with him.
The Son of Heaven touched his son's head and asked with a smile, "Send your teacher out of the city?" ”
The prince nodded.
"Uncle, he's gone."
The Son of Heaven nodded slightly, took his son's hand, and after being silent for a long time, he suddenly asked the prince.
"You say, will your master come back?"
"Why won't you come back?"
The prince said curiously: "Uncle, his family is in the capital, and Sister Ahan and aunt are in the capital, he has lived in the capital for so many years, and he will definitely come back." ”
The Son of Heaven had a ruddy face and smiled reluctantly.
"I hope so."
