Chapter 608: Covering up the loopholes

On this day, the young eunuch from the capital was not idle for a moment, and after seeing Ji Yu, he went to Zhang Luo all over the city to prepare things to return to Beijing.

What's more, he really found a few doctors in Jincheng and prepared to take them on the road for backup.

And on this day, Jing'an Hou Li Xin was also not idle, he first took Zhao Jia to meet Mu Qing Muying's father and son, and then took him to meet Ye Ming, and after drinking tea with Ye Ming, he got up to say goodbye.

Before parting, Ye Ming pulled Li Xin's sleeve and said with a smile: "It is estimated that in a few months, my brother will be able to return to Beijing to restore his life, and when the time comes, I will put a meal of wine in the capital for my brother, and please have a good drink in Chang'an." ”

Li Xin said with a smile: "That little brother is waiting for the senior brother to return to Beijing in the capital. ”

Ye Ming continued to ask, "Chang'an, how many people will you bring back tomorrow?" ”

Li Xin hesitated for a moment and said, "You don't need to bring many people, just bring back Yu Linwei brought by the younger brother." ”

Speaking of this, the Marquis of Jing'an said with some emotion: "It's a pity that the younger brother brought over a whole Yulinwei from the Duwei battalion, and now there are only more than 100 of the 400 people left, and after returning to the capital, I don't know how to explain to their family." ”

Ye Ming patted Li Xin's shoulder and said with relief: "Leading troops to fight, this is a common thing, if you can't explain this in Chang'an, our Ye family will have been killed on the street a long time ago." ”

Speaking of this, Ye Ming said in a deep voice: "This road is high and long, and I have to escort His Royal Highness King Qin and... That person, more than 100 people are not safe, you will transfer 500 people from Mao'er's Fangshan Zhichong Mansion and go back to Beijing together. ”

Li Xin didn't hesitate and said with a smile: "Then I won't be polite to Senior Brother." ”

As he spoke, Ye Ming had already sent Li Xin more than 100 steps, he stopped and patted Li Xin's shoulder heavily.

"Brother, I can't go back to Beijing in the southwest, after you return to the capital, take care of my father on my behalf."

In the blink of an eye, the two of them have been away from the capital for more than a year, which means that the Lao Chen Guogong is more than a year old.

Although Ye Sheng's health is still healthy, but at the age of more than seventy, he can't afford to add many years, and Ye Ming is still worried about his old father when he is out fighting.

"Senior brother, don't worry, when the younger brother is in the capital, he will go to Chen Guogong's mansion in two or three days, and he will be more diligent than the previous court."

Li Xin lowered his head and smiled: "And to say something that Senior Brother doesn't like to hear, Master Ye's body is probably better than Senior Brother's body." ”

Ye Ming lowered his head and sighed, and said slowly: "The old father told Brother Wei about this, speaking of which, Chang'an, you are much more competent than my own son." ”

Li Xin waved his hand.

"Master Ye is the mentor of the younger brother, and he is also the noble person of the younger brother, and the senior brother will see the outside when he says this."

"The senior brother is busy with affairs, so the younger brother will not bother, so he will leave, and the younger brother will be in the capital in the coming day, and welcome the senior brother and the class teacher back to the court."

Speaking of this, Li Xin bowed his head to Ye Ming.

Ye Shaobao pulled Li Xin's sleeve and said with a smile: "Early tomorrow morning, my brother will let Ye Mao go to find you and return to Beijing with you." ”

Li Xin nodded with a smile, and then walked away with Zhao Jia.

Waiting for Li Xin to go farther and farther, Ye Ming looked at Li Xin's back and said silently: "Do you recognize the young man behind Chang'an?" ”

The little grandfather is very arrogant on weekdays, but he is honest like a little lamb in front of his father, he honestly bowed his head and said: "I recognize, it is Mr. Zhao's youngest son, who grew up in our family, is about the same age as his son, but is a generation older than his son." ”

Ye Ming turned his head and glanced at his son lightly.

"His father, Mr. Duanyang, was the military advisor of the Northern Expedition, your grandfather was able to take the Northern Zhou in one fell swoop, Mr. Duanyang contributed a lot, and later Mr. Duanyang died of illness, and before he died, he said that this little son would not be inferior to him in the future."

"Your grandfather kept him at home so that he would be left to you one day in the future, and he was also lent to Chang'an for use, but now?"

"Now Chang'an has entrusted him with all the affairs of the Jing'an Hou Mansion in the southwest, which means that people will not eat with our Ye family in the future."

Speaking of this, Ye Shaobao snorted.

"You, you, you can't keep people."

…………………………

The next day, before dawn and still dark, Xiao Zheng, the young eunuch of the inner guard, was waiting at the gate of Li Xin's courtyard.

But it was not yet dawn, and he didn't dare to knock on the door, for fear of disturbing the young marquis's rest, but fortunately, it was already April at this time, and the weather was neither hot nor cold, Xiao Zheng stood at the door and waited, until the east was white, and the golden crow reported the dawn, and Xiao Gonggong heard that there was something in the courtyard, so he knocked on the door gently.

At this time, it is the time for Li Xin to stand up and stand on the fist pile.

Soon, the courtyard door was opened, but it was not Li Xin who opened the door, but an eight or nine-year-old child, this child glanced curiously at Xiao Zheng, who was dressed in civilian clothes, and then said, "Who are you?" ”

Xiao Zheng glanced at the child, then tidied up his clothes, and said with a smile: "As soon as I reported it, I said that Xiao Zheng asked to see the Hou Ye." ”

The child nodded, and said crisply: "This gentleman, please wait a while, my teacher is standing on the fist pile at this time, and he can't be disturbed, and once he is disturbed, he will have to start all over again." ”

When Xiao Zheng heard this title, his heart moved, then he squatted down and said with a smile: "You are a student of Li Houye?" ”

The boy's eyes were smart, he lowered his head and said with some embarrassment: "The teacher has not officially accepted me." ”

Young Eunuch Xiao rolled his eyes and continued to ask, "What is the name of the little boy, and how did he follow Master Hou?" ”

"My name is Zhao Fang."

Xiao Zhao Fang replied without hesitation, then bowed his head and said: "My father is Yu Linwei next to the teacher, my father is gone, and the teacher will take me with him." ”

Xiao Zheng sighed and continued to ask, "Where is the little boy from?" ”

"Shu people."

In fact, if you don't say this, Xiao Zheng can also guess it, the little guy has a thick Shu accent.

In fact, this little guy whose original name was Li Chengye is not from Shu, the reason why he can speak the Shu dialect is because he has been in Shu for a few years with the Li family of Zhao County, and the children learn things quickly, and Zhao Fang can now speak a pure Shu dialect.

After answering this sentence, Zhao Fang stopped talking.

It is not surprising that there are Shu people in Yulin Weili, because of Mu Ying's relationship with Yu Lin Wei's right general, Yulin Weili has indeed recruited dozens of Shu people in recent years.

Xiao Zheng nodded, patted Zhao Fang's shoulder, and said slowly: "It's also a good thing for the little boy to be blessed to follow Hou Ye, if you can worship Hou Ye, you will have a future." ”

Xiao Zhao Fang stood obediently in place and did not speak.

After a while, Li Xincai, who was covered in sweat, came out of the courtyard, and after glancing at Xiao Zheng, he smiled and said, "Father-in-law Lao Xiao has been waiting for a long time." ”

"How dare you."

Xiao Zheng hurriedly shook his head and said respectfully: "It was the slave maid who disturbed Master Hou doing his homework." ”

Speaking of this, Xiao Zheng glanced at Xiao Zhao Fang, who was hiding behind Li Xin, and asked, "Master Hou, who is this little boy?" ”

"Oh, son of the old man."

Li Xin sighed: "His father is from Hanzhou, my personal guard, he died in battle when he attacked Mianzhu, and then he happened to meet him, and the little guy had no relatives, so I simply took him with me, how can I raise him." ”

Xiao Zheng nodded and said with a smile: "The little boy looks very smart, and it is also his blessing to be able to follow Hou Ye." ”

Li Xin blinked his eyes and asked, "Let's go now?" ”

Xiao Zheng nodded hurriedly.

"Yes, the carriages and horses are ready outside."

Li Houye nodded, and said to Zhao Fang behind him: "Go and pack up, I'll take you to the capital." ”

Zhao Fang nodded obediently.

"Got it, teacher."

Li Xin's face sank.

"How many times have I said it, and I will speak official words in the future."

"You don't change your accent, and then you go to the capital, how do you go to school there?"
