Chapter Twenty-Four: Righteous Father and Son and Uncle Ganlang

In fact, Li Xin's words are not completely made up, he came to this world and woke up in that broken temple, when it was freezing cold, he only wore a single coat, and it was not until a few days later that he earned a little money from the proud building and bought himself a cotton coat.

Since then, he has been extremely afraid of the cold, and he wraps himself tightly every winter.

Li Xin was an ordinary white-collar worker in his last life, and like everyone else, he liked to go to bed late and get up late, and over the years, he was able to get up early in the morning every morning and practice internal boxing diligently, and he did not stop for more than ten years, a large part of the reason was that he was afraid that he would die suddenly one day because he was not in good health.

Fortunately, after more than ten years of family boxing, his body has become stronger and stronger, and there are no other problems except for being afraid of cold in winter.

Xiao Huai lowered his head and sighed: "The slave also knows that Taifu has a grudge against the imperial court, but Your Majesty is young after all, and has already recognized the problems in Northern Xinjiang, Taifu, you are Your Majesty's teacher, and you should be more tolerant of Your Majesty." ”

Speaking of this, Xiao Huai smiled bitterly: "Before the slave maid came, His Majesty told the slave maid that he hadn't seen the eldest princess for three or four years, and His Majesty was brought up by the eldest princess since he was a child......

The Marquis of Jing'an smiled: "When my body is well-raised, I will naturally take the eldest princess back to Beijing, and I will bother Gonggong Xiao to tell the Son of Heaven on my behalf, saying that there are two major gateways in northern Xinjiang, Yunzhou and Jizhou, and Xianbei people can't easily enter. ”

At this time, no matter what the court says, Li Xin can't go back, and now the relationship between the two sides is so stiff, once Li Xin returns to Beijing, it's hard to say whether the court will kill him, but he will definitely be put under house arrest, and it is best to be Ye Sheng's end.

And the southwest is now confronting the imperial army in Hanzhong, once Li Xin is locked up in the capital and can't move, then the southwest side will be fluctuating, especially Mu Ying and Li Shuo, it is very likely that no one will obey anyone, and when the time comes, before they can get out of Shu, they will start to commotion.

Xiao Huai opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but when he saw Li Xin's expression, he didn't dare to speak, he just sighed: "Taifu, the court still has a seal for Ling Gongzi, and it is also in the box, so the slave and maid will not read it, and Taifu should read it himself." ”

Li Xin looked back at the wooden box in surprise, and then took out a document stamped by the Ministry of War and Shangshutai from under the holy decree, the number of words in the document was not much, to the effect that Li Ping, the eldest son of the Marquis of Jing'an, was promoted to the general of Xuanwu.

This is the martial arts officer of the fourth grade, when Ye Lan was the general of Yulin Weizhonglang, it was just this level.

However, this kind of title is all honorary titles, and it is just good-looking on the face, and Li Xin is completely disdainful of the treatment of a four-grade loose official.

Li Xin accepted the paperwork and arched his hand at Xiao Huai.

"Trouble the angel to take my place, thank Your Majesty Longen."

Xiao Huai bowed his head and returned the salute, then looked left and right, and suddenly lowered his voice.

He bowed his head deeply: "Taifu, can you take a step to speak?" ”

Li Xin glanced at Xiao Huai in some surprise, then waved his hand and waved his hand to the people in the main hall: "You all go down." ”

After dispersing the subordinates, Li Xin glanced at Xiao Huai and said with a smile: "Father-in-law Xiao has something?" ”

Xiao Huai lowered his head, hesitated for a while, and then said, "The slave has some things and wants to ask Master Hou for advice." ”

Li Xin sat on the main seat in the main hall, his eyes half-squinted.

"You say."

Xiao Huai gritted his teeth and said, "Don't tell the Hou Ye that the slave maid took over the Meihuawei two years ago, and when I went through the files in the past two years, I found some problems. ”

Li Xin glanced at Xiao Huai with interest, and smiled: "It turns out that Gonggong Xiao has been promoted in secret, which is gratifying." ”

Xiao Huai bowed his head and said: "In the first year of Yuan Zhao, Taifu returned to Yongzhou from the capital to give the sacrifice mother, and then left halfway and went to Jincheng. ”

"Soon after, the plum blossom guards in Jincheng lost a total of thirty-five people, and in the following months, more than four hundred plum blossom guards died in Jincheng."

Speaking of this, Xiao Huai paused, then glanced up at Li Xin.

"Before Taifu left Beijing, it seems that he entered the palace and met his godfather in the inner chamberlain."

Li Xin was stunned at first, and then laughed dumbly.

"It turns out that Grandpa Xiao found out about this matter."

He half-squinted his eyes and glanced at Xiao Huai: "If I remember correctly, when you were a teenager, Father-in-law Xiao, you followed behind Father-in-law Xiao and made him a righteous son, and in the next ten years, he treated you as his own and tried his best to promote, which made you become the young eunuch of the inner prison at the age of less than thirty, and also took charge of the plum blossom guard." ”

"Why, you're so quick to see your godfather unpleasant?"

Xiao Huai gritted his teeth and bowed his head: "Taifu, the slave just wants to know if this matter has anything to do with the godfather." ”

"Does it matter?"

Li Xin restrained his smile, glanced at Xiao Huai expressionlessly, and said coldly: "You can do this position, it shouldn't be too naΓ―ve, whether this kind of thing is there or not, I won't tell you, besides, whether I admit it or not, it will have little impact on things." ”

Li Xin sneered: "As long as you go back to Beijing, kneel in front of the Son of Heaven, and repeat what you just said in front of me, when the time comes, it will be not but, and you can kick your godfather away as you wish and put on that big red robe." ”

Xiao Huai took a deep breath and bowed his hand deeply to Li Xin.

"Taifu's words, the slave knows."

"Don't dare to disturb the Taifu to recuperate, the slave will leave."

After that, this purple-clothed eunuch, who was about the same age as Li Xin, respectfully withdrew from the main hall of the Li family, pouting his ass and retreating more than a dozen steps before turning around and leaving.

Li Xin looked at the back of this guy and frowned slightly.

He was hesitating whether to leave this guy in Qiyang forever.

If this person returned to the capital and told the Son of Heaven, then Xiao Zheng would be almost dead.

He shook his head, a little puzzled.

"Xiao Zheng actually didn't deal with the whole of this matter, I really don't know what he has done as a great eunuch over the years."

He decided to leave this matter alone, anyway, he didn't betray Xiao Zheng, even if Xiao Zheng really had an accident, he was not cautious enough.

After Xiao Huai and the "angel" left, it was almost late afternoon and evening, Li Xin returned to the backyard, and Zhao Jia and Li Shuo carefully discussed the conditions and timing of the southwest army's exit from Shu, as well as the weaknesses of the Hanzhong army and the Ankang army.

At about the end of the day, Zhao Jia was the first to hold on, and went back to the wing room to rest, Li Shuo was more introverted, not too embarrassed to disturb Li Xin, and also got up to say goodbye, after Li Xin sent these two people away, he got up and stretched a long lazy waist, and pushed open the door of the warm pavilion.

A little snowflake falls.

Located in Yongzhou in the south, on the twenty-ninth day of the lunar month of this year, it rarely snowed, Li Xin carried a lantern, put on his clothes and walked into the snow.

Although there is almost no snow in Yongzhou, the snow scene is undoubtedly beautiful.

He walked from the backyard to the front yard and heard a knock on his door.

The porter, who slept in a daze, got up and opened the door.

Out of curiosity, Li Xin also followed to the gate.

The door opened, and a lean-looking young man with dark skin stood at the door, wearing only two or three clothes, a long knife hanging from his waist, and a wine bag.

He saw Li Xin carrying a lantern for the first time, and immediately grinned, revealing a mouth full of white teeth.

"Brother, I'm back!"

It was from the Zhenbei Army that he came back from leave and Zhao Fang.

Li Xin was a little happy to see him come back, but after hearing his name, his face suddenly turned black and he walked away.

"Who's your brother?"
