Chapter 312: Relocation to Xizhou
The brotherly love is deep and touching, and Li Suzhen wants to hum a song "Love of the Year" for them.
Everything that should be explained has been explained, Li Su entrusted his family to the Wang brothers, in this strange world, Li Su can trust too few people, only the Wang brothers, he can give them his back without any scruples, no need to guard at all, entrusting them with family affairs is the best choice at present.
Squatting under the ginkgo tree at the entrance of the village, Li Su squinted, breathed deep in the fresh air, watched the Jing River flowing slowly nearby, and looked at the mountains in the distance.
When they separated, they realized that their hometown was so beautiful.
…………
The bloody atmosphere of Chang'an City gradually dissipated, and the people walked calmly in the market, chatting and laughing, and rushing for their own livelihood, and the days were calm and fulfilling, as for the courtiers and family members who were beheaded and abandoned the city a few days ago, it seems that they have gradually been forgotten.
The joys and sorrows of others are seen in the eyes and listened to in the ears, and after the novelty and sigh, they continue to live their own lives, like a small pebble thrown into the lake, and after a circle of ripples, they return to calm.
After all, it's just a bustle.
The court is quite unpeaceful, for the courtiers, Li Shimin's killing ring is not lively, in the court, who knows if he will be killed next?
Anyone who can stand in the court is not a fool, carefully recall the beginning and end of the construction of the Daming Palace, and then look at the background of the family behind the people who were killed, everyone finally has a number.
In this killing and purging, His Majesty is targeting the family, which is a warning and a temptation. Warn the family not to act rashly, and use the heads of those protégés to test the family's reaction and bottom line.
The reaction made Li Shimin quite satisfied, and more than 200 heads were placed on the mass grave outside the city, but those families with a thousand-year-old heritage collectively lost their voices.
Li Shimin's feelings for the family can be described as love and hate, lingering like a lover.
At the beginning, Li Yuan and Jinyang raised troops against the Sui, and the first time to unite was the gate valves of the major families in Guanzhong. At the same time, the Li family itself also belongs to the Longyou military group, and there is a lot of military power under its command, relying on the help of various families openly and secretly, the Li family raised the banner of the Sui Dynasty in only about a year, and sat on the entire country. Happiness came so suddenly.
However, after sitting firmly in the country, the mentality of the Li family changed again.
In a word, "Forehead drops, forehead drops, all four forehead drops!" ”
All kinds of vows before seizing the country are all selectively amnesia, and the protégés of the family are more and more dissatisfied with the behavior of the court to point fingers, and the long-suppressed contradiction finally broke out in the twelfth year of Zhenguan, Li Shimin raised the butcher's knife and told the family with iron-blooded means. This country is surnamed Li.
Li Shimin is wise and wise, his butcher's knife is raised very carefully, the blade is swept away, and all the people who die are those he wants to die, and Yu Zheqiu has not committed any crimes.
After the purge, Li Shimin gathered his ministers. A court meeting was held for three days in a row to denounce the crimes of the more than 30 convicted officials. The crime has been arranged a long time ago, anyway, everyone is dead, say what crime you are guilty of, don't agree? If you have the ability, you crawl out of the grave, beat the drum and cry out......
After denouncing the crimes, the next step was to appease the hearts of many courtiers who were uneasy because of their dealings with the family. Li Shimin summoned them alone, comforted them with warm words, and the wife of the family was promoted, and the children were Yin Yuen, and by the way, they sent a few more innocuous titles. One by one, they entered the hall tremblingly, and went out with a smile.
The court cleaning was unexpectedly perfect, Li Shimin's robe sleeves waved, and the turbulent court situation was instantly smoothed out, and there was no trace of turmoil, which can be described as a great joy.
****************************************************************
After leveling the court, Li Shimin's sinful eyes finally had time to focus on Li Su.
On the fifth day of Li Su's release from prison, the expected holy decree finally came.
The eunuch raised his face proudly, as if he had read the decree with his nostrils, and then stretched out his hands flatly, waiting for Li Su to receive the decree.
Li Daozheng and Xu Mingzhu, who were kneeling on the ground together, were stunned, and looked at Li Su, who had a calm face, receiving the holy decree with both hands, and the eunuch said a few polite words to Li Su and left.
The superintendent of the Firearms Bureau still serves concurrently, but he has become a remote leader, and the young superintendent Xu Jingzong acts as the superintendent.
Li Su was promoted, and the Xizhou Assassin Mansion was not driven, from the fourth rank, the title remained the same, but an additional martial arts title of "General Dingyuan" was added, which was both civil and military, and quite intriguing.
According to the previous form of the holy decree, whether it is a promotion, transfer or derogation, there should be a large paragraph of praise or condemnation at the beginning, but this holy decree to Li Su is concise and to the point, and Li Su's official position is directly announced at the beginning, and he will leave for his post within three days, and finally end it.
The corners of Li Su's mouth were hooked, and his eyes narrowed slightly.
"Xizhou don't drive", a very interesting official name, "don't drive" is from the four officials, the state capital of the Tang Dynasty is divided into upper, middle and lower three, with the population as the standard, Xizhou is located in the wilderness, the city is built in the vast desert, it is conceivable that the population is pitiful, naturally belongs to Xiazhou, the highest administrative official of a state is the history of the assassin, can cut off all the people's livelihood decrees, and the other driver is the adjutant of the history of the assassin, the status is second only to the history of the assassin, belongs to the second real power figure in the state.
Giving a hairy child who has just performed the crown ceremony and is only more than ten years old to give him the real power to drive, Li Shimin is also quite hard, isn't he afraid that Li Su will play Xizhou badly?
The eunuch had been away for a long time, and Li Daozheng and Xu Mingzhu were still kneeling on the ground in a daze, staring at Li Su blankly.
Li Su put away the holy decree, sighed secretly, and stepped forward to help his father and Xu Mingzhu.
Li Daozheng came back to his senses at this time, and his face was full of consternation: "Where is Xizhou?" Why did Your Majesty let you go to Xizhou to be an official? That's not right, teenage baby...... That's not right! ”
Xu Mingzhu's eyes were full of tears, her small mouth seemed to cry, looking at the eyes of the people around her, she still gritted her teeth and didn't cry.
Li Su sighed: "Xizhou...... Far away, thousands of miles away, deep in the desert. ”
Li Daozheng looked at him distractedly and muttered, "Why did you send you there as an official?" Why is this happening? Didn't you say that Your Majesty didn't take care of the Golden Palace, and you wrote an article to scold him? ”
Li Suqiang said with a smile: "Your Majesty doesn't care, the child is Your Majesty's courtier, Your Majesty needs the child to go to Xizhou, the child can only go, and the king can't disobey it." ”
Li Daozheng's upright body instantly became rickety, he let out a long sigh, walked into the house in a distraction, and kept muttering to himself: "Why is this happening?" The baby who is only a teenager should not be, too ruthless, too ruthless......"
Li Su pursed her lips and quietly looked at her father's rickety back, and suddenly felt a lot of sourness in her heart.
After more than ten years of dependence, I said goodbye to my father for the first time, loyalty and filial piety, and I really can't have both.
Xu Mingzhu sobbed softly behind him, and when he looked back, Xu Mingzhu's eyes were red, and tears slid down his cheeks in strings, but he covered his mouth and didn't cry.
Li Su sighed, looked at her, and said seriously: "Madam, after I left for Xizhou, everything in the family was entrusted to Mrs., take good care of my father for me, he has suffered all his life, and when I should enjoy the blessings ......of my children and grandchildren, I can't do my filial piety on my knees."
Xu Mingzhu shook his head unexpectedly: "There are housekeepers and subordinates at home, and they will be good at serving their father-in-law, but Fujun, you are alone, suffering from the wind, sword, frost and knife, no one to add clothes when you are frozen, no one to cook when you are hungry, and no one around you who knows cold and heat to take care of you, how can your husband be able to stand it?" Husband, is it okay to go to Xizhou and bring a concubine? The concubine will set off with you. ”
Li Suleng paused for a moment, and then shook his head: "No, I am going thousands of miles, I don't know how hard and difficult the road is, besides, the situation in Xizhou is unclear, it is already chaotic, you must not go to a woman's house, stay at home and take care of my father for me." ”
Who knew that Xu Mingzhu suddenly raised his head stubbornly, contrary to his usual docile and respectful appearance, and looked directly at Li Su without fear, and said: "Before the concubine got married, the mother once told the concubine body, marry the husband and follow the husband, share the joys and sorrows, the concubine does not read much, and does not understand too many big truths, how to teach the father, how to do the concubine, the husband has a title, has an official body, and the concubine body was given a decree by His Majesty before she got married, it is all the glory of the concubine and her mother's family, but the husband suffers alone, but the concubine is at home to enjoy peace and luxury, and the concubine can't do it!" ”
"I didn't suffer, I was just transferred to a strange place to become an official...... Li Su explained dryly.
"The husband is not a concubine, Xizhou is located in Longyou, is the center of the desert, desolate and uninhabited, only a small earthen city, food and clothing, three meals are difficult to continue, it is said that Xizhou is not driving, but it is not as good as the village of Taiping Village, the husband is pampered, has never been involved in family affairs, and when he got there alone, who will serve you? Who will take care of your food and clothing? Xu Mingzhu sniffed hard and choked up: "Concubine...... Marrying into the Li family, although the husband treats each other politely, the concubine knows that she has not been favored by the husband so far. How can a concubine enjoy peace alone? ”
Seeing Xu Mingzhu crying, Li Su's heart was filled with a lot of emotion, but he sighed secretly.
has no regrets in this life to get this good wife, but ...... Why did God arrange for him to meet Dongyang first?
"I am an official outside, and my wife is in charge of the house, which is a matter of course, you and I perform our own duties, what do you say about the peace alone? The situation in Xizhou is unpredictable, chaotic, and nothing to mention! Li Su hardened his heart and refused.
Afraid that Xu Mingzhu would say something sweet and bitter again, Li Su flicked the sleeves of his robe after finishing speaking, and entered the house as if he was evading.
Xu Mingzhu stood quietly in the courtyard, secretly weeping for a long time, suddenly raised his sleeve and wiped a handful of tears, his red eyes stared at Li Su's wing, a pair of small fists in his sleeves were secretly clenched, and a resolute look quietly appeared in his eyes.
