Chapter 351: Life is just a handful of ashes

When Old Man Ye saw Li Xin's appearance, he immediately laughed.

"Okay, don't make you happy, you can find me in this matter, just to give the old man face, so how about calling Chang'an?"

Chang'an, Li Chang'an......

Speaking of which, after Emperor Wu pacified the world, he once intended to move the capital to Chang'an, but later for various reasons, it was still settled in Jinling.

The most important thing is that because the interests are too heavy, if Emperor Wu is the first emperor, he can naturally move the capital without scruples, but in the generation of Emperor Wu, he is already the sixth generation of the Son of Heaven of the Great Jin Dynasty, entrenched in Jinling for more than a hundred years, and various forces have already taken root in Jinling, even if Emperor Wu has destroyed the country, he has not been able to shake it.

Li Xin stopped, glanced back at Ye Sheng, and said slowly: "Using the ancient capital to make table characters, will there be some non-compliance system?" ”

Ye Sheng grinned: "Someone is talking about this, you just say that the old man got it for you, Chang'an Chang'an, Changle and long-term peace, what's so bad?" ”

In fact, the meaning of Chang'an should be long-term peace and stability, but this is generally the wish of the Son of Heaven, so Ye Sheng was very alert and changed it to Changle.

Ye Sheng patted Li Xin's shoulder and said with a smile: "Little friend, be more careful when walking, if you can be in Chang'an, my Ye family will be in Chang'an." ”

Li Xin bowed his head slightly, and said with a smile: "The Ye family is a towering tree, the younger generation is just rootless duckweed, the granddaughter of the old prince has already settled with His Majesty, and it won't be long before the Ye family is a relative of the emperor." ”

Old man Ye shook his head and said: "The most worthless thing in this world is the in-laws of the Heavenly Family, and the old man has never taken this to heart. ”

As he spoke, he turned his head to look at Li Xin, and smiled: "Speaking of which, you kid makes the old man more pleasing to the eye, more affectionate, the old man has two granddaughters, the big one is allowed to His Majesty, and the small one is here, otherwise you will be left for two years and let you be a brother-in-law with Your Majesty?" ”

Li Xin shook his head again and again: "Don't you dare to delay Miss Ye." ”

The old man laughed.

"Okay, you should still have something to do, so I won't gossip with you, just go."

Li Xin bent down to take his leave.

Ye Mao personally sent him to the gate of Chen Guogong's mansion, and the little grandfather looked at Li Xin with a resentful face.

"Master Li, if you come to my house a few more times, I will call you uncle......"

Li Xin learned from Ye Sheng's appearance and patted the little grandfather's shoulder, his face serious.

"Brother Ye, don't hide it, I almost became your brother-in-law."

Ye Mao raised his eyebrows, and was about to speak, but Li Xin had already run away.

After leaving the Chen Guogong Mansion, Li Xin went to the Zhongyong Marquis Mansion to pay New Year's greetings to the old Marquis Hou Gu, Hou Gu also liked Li Xin very much, and pulled Li Xin to marry his granddaughter to Li Xin as a concubine, his granddaughter was naturally Hou Jingde's daughter, Li Xin thought about Hou someone's gorilla-like figure, and immediately turned pale, and fled away from the Zhongyong Marquis Mansion.

When Hou Jingde came out to see him off, he couldn't see Li Xin's shadow anymore.

Although these scenes are very ridiculous, they are a microcosm of Li Xin's current status, and it is no joke to say that as long as he releases a sentence now, those third-grade officials in the capital are willing to stuff their daughters and granddaughters into Li Xin's concubines.

With a word, he can easily open a harem in Jinling City.

Even if the ninth princess knows, it won't matter, because Li Xin's weight now far exceeds that of a princess, and Taikang Tianzi will not treat Li Xin like anything because of the ninth princess.

At most, a few words of reprimand.

However, General Li Dalang, with great perseverance and perseverance, resolutely rejected these temptations.

Pink skulls, they're all pink skulls......

…………………………

On the fifth day of the first month of the first year of Taikang, Li Xin, who had already arranged the affairs of the capital, led Zhong Xiaoxiao to get into the carriage early in the morning, went out of Beijing from the east city gate, and walked towards Beishan.

Yes, this time he is going home with the little girl.

This girl is very recognizable, and now Jiuniang is hiding and has no way to take care of her, Li Xin really doesn't worry about leaving this little girl alone in the capital, so he decided to take her back to Yongzhou to have a look.

When Taikang Tianzi learned the news, he temporarily sent three hundred Yulin guards to guard Li Xin along the way, saying that he was afraid that the little girl would encounter any danger along the way.

Li Xin was a little suspicious, the new emperor was afraid that he would run away with the little girl... That's why he sent so many people to follow him.

However, five hundred people are always stronger than two hundred people, you must know that these are well-trained Yu Linwei elites, not those miscellaneous soldiers in the local area can be compared, it is no exaggeration to say that these five hundred Yu Lin Wei can easily capture Li Xin's hometown Qiyang County.

When the time comes, if you encounter any local snakes in Qiyang County who refuse to obey, hehehe......

When Li Xinli was thinking about what might happen when he returned to his hometown, the carriage had already arrived in Beishan.

Li Xin took the little girl's hand and led her to the grave of the charcoal seller.

"Come, kowtow to grandpa."

The little girl knelt down with a plop and couldn't stop kowtowing to this rare gravestone pile.

Li Xin stretched out his hand and dragged her up, shook his head and said, "That's enough." ”

The little girl turned her head away and wiped her tears with her sleeve.

It's rare that there is no crying.

Li Xin also sighed, knelt down on his knees, and kowtowed three times to the charcoal seller.

"Uncle, I raised your granddaughter very well, and I will continue to raise it in the future, you can rest assured underground..."

After the sacrifice to sell charcoal, Li Xin burned some paper money on the grave, and then walked to another inconspicuous grave, he knelt down respectfully, and kowtowed meticulously,

These two old men lying quietly in Beishan are Li Xin's life-saving benefactors, especially his uncle, if it weren't for him, there would be no Li Xin today.

After Li Xin kowtowed and got up, the little girl hurriedly knelt where Li Xin was kneeling just now, and knelt down with a thud.

Li Xin shook his head and said helplessly: "You don't have to kneel for this." ”

The little girl kowtowed respectfully nine times, and then looked up at Li Xin with a firm gaze.

"My brother's elder is my elder..."

Li Xin reached out and touched her head, then turned around and took a few shovels from the carriage.

He threw it to a few Yu Lin Wei beside him, and he also took one himself, and said in a muffled voice: "Dig." ”

The death of a guest in a foreign land is one of the biggest regrets in ancient times, when his uncle had to be buried here, so now Li Xin wants to take him home.

Go back to your hometown in Yongzhou.

In the process of digging the grave, several people wanted to grab the shovel in Li Xin's hand, thinking of helping Zhonglang to do more work, but Li Xin glared back fiercely.

After all, the speed of digging was much faster, and it didn't take long for my uncle's body to be picked up.

Because there was no coffin, the body decomposed quickly.

Li Xin kowtowed a few times to his uncle's remains, and then said in a deep voice: "Find wood and make a fire." ”

The fire burned for an hour or two, and at noon, Li Xin took a clay pot and personally took his uncle's ashes into it, and then sealed it.

Then the young Marquis of Jing'an held the clay pot in one hand and Zhong Xiaoxiao in the other, and returned to the carriage.

"It's time to go."

The wheels of the carriage turned slowly, and it slowly drove along the official road to the southwest.

After the carriage walked for an hour, Ye Lan and Hou Jingde were unforgettable in the Shili Pavilion outside the capital.

Hou Jingde whispered.

"Brother Li is really not righteous enough, he won't say hello when he leaves, let's send him off."

Ye Xuan squinted his eyes and looked at the southwest, but did not speak.
