Chapter 618: A Balance of Mutual Constraints
Hanzhong Mansion is extremely lively, the house is also happy, not only because of last night's good news, but also because of the news that keeps coming into the house, in just less than two hours, there have been more than ten people of different ages by Chen Qi, Zhao Liang and other officials, and directly wrote out the resumes of those people on the spot, and attached to the appreciation of several officials and the ability to recommend and so on.
And all of this is naturally sent to the front hall of the mansion without interruption, for Li Xiaojun and others to screen again, and after careful consideration, they will temporarily put aside the resumes that meet the requirements, and then arrange for someone to transcribe them, and then temporarily collect them, and wait for them to be sent to Lin Feng when the time comes, and then make a final decision.
"Princess, are we really going to leave here?" Looking at the children who were playing in the hall, Ying Yue glanced at her daughter tenderly, and then looked at Li Xiaojun helplessly, although this sentence has been asked I don't know how many times since last night, but somehow, Ying Yue still seems to be a little difficult to adapt.
"Yes! There's no way around it, and I'm reluctant to leave here! Li Xiaojun nodded slightly, then smiled, shook his head and explained again: "My father said in the letter that after recovering Chang'an this time, His Majesty is bent on rebuilding the prosperous Tang Dynasty!" But the biggest obstacle is the feudal towns in various places, since the decline of the Tang Dynasty, the Jiedu envoys who should have stayed in the capital are no longer subject to this constraint! You also know that this is actually just an exchange for the imperial court, after all, the festival envoy has a heavy army, if you don't leave some money in the hands of the imperial court, how can the imperial court rest assured? ”
"Hey, actually, I understand!" Ying Yue also nodded helplessly, glanced at Li Xiaojun, and explained with a wry smile: "Actually, it's just that the children are still young, and it's a long way to Chang'an, so I'm just worried about whether the children will be wronged!" ”
"Don't worry!" Li Xiaojun stretched out his hand and patted Ying Yue on the side of the seat, and comforted with a smile: "It's going to be fine!" My father said in his heart that Lord Yang Lianting Yang had already mentioned this in the report, but let us prepare in advance, and then we will go with His Majesty's team back to Beijing! Even if we go by ourselves, are we still worried about being wronged? ”
"Sister-in-law, I really don't understand!" After a pause, Xiao Qi came to Li Xiaojun with a pot of hot tea that had just been brewed, and while carefully pouring the tea, he pouted and said, "Why do you have to stay in the capital with the family members of the Jiedu envoy!" Isn't that what it means to be a hostage? Since the imperial court does not believe in these festival envoys, why should they be given military power! These festival envoys are also, the court doesn't believe them, they take their families as hostages, and they are still working hard for the court on the battlefield, and they can't even take care of their families! ”
"Xiaoqi, don't talk nonsense!" Li Xiaojun glared at Xiao Qi slightly, and subconsciously turned his head to look at the only few maids in the hall, although they were all some henchmen and maids, but he still shook his head at Xiao Qi cautiously, and explained with a chuckle: "This can't be understood as a hostage, at most it is just a bridge connecting the imperial court and the Jiedu envoy!" After all, in this case, the Jiedu envoy will not be discouraged because of the heavy army, and the family lives in Chang'an, not only can enjoy the glory and wealth given by the imperial court, but also make the Jiedu envoy less worried, after all, it is the capital! What's more, the imperial court can also eliminate the scruples about the military power in the hands of the Jiedu envoys! It's just a balance! Don't speculate in the future! ”
"Okay, sister-in-law, got it!" Xiao Qi put away the teapot, stuck out her tongue with a smile, and turned around to refill the hot tea for Ying Yue. Immediately, Ying Yue smiled slightly, stretched out her hand and pushed the cup forward, then turned her eyes to look at Li Xiaojun, and said with a smile: "Princess, in fact, what Xiao Qi said is not wrong, but it is just a little inappropriate to think about the relationship between the imperial court and the envoys of various places!" ”
"Hey! These are all matters of the imperial court, so let's not just ask! Li Xiaojun nodded lightly, sighed lightly, and comforted with some bitterness: "What's more, Brother Feng has already taken over Gyeonggi Province, and his future days in Chang'an will definitely be indispensable!" We can't be separated by two places as a family! And my father will definitely be in Chang'an City, I haven't seen him for a long time, and I don't know how his body is now, he lives in the army all year round! Ay! ”
Hearing this, Xiao Qi, who had just finished pouring the tea, put the teapot on the table, turned around and walked to Li Xiaojun's side, grabbed an arm and hugged it into his arms, kept swaying his body, and said with a smile: "Sister-in-law, don't worry!" Godfather's body is hard! Although he has always been in the army, his godfather is the emperor's uncle and the generalissimo of the army! And there must be a lot of guards around to take care of you, and the next time you see a spirited godfather, you will definitely be surprised! ”
"Really? Hehe! You girl, you can talk! Listening to Xiao Qi's relief, especially looking at the rather confident appearance, Li Xiaojun's heart was also warm, he pulled out his arm to wrap his arms around Xiao Qi's waist, and chuckled and quipped: "Xiao Qi! A few days ago, the young man Cao who came to visit the house, how do you feel about him? ”
"Huh?" Xiao Qi was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect Li Xiaojun to suddenly turn the topic to himself, and then his face turned red, and he explained extremely shyly: "I, I haven't seen him again, besides, besides, I'm not in a hurry!" ”
"Haha! Don't think I don't know, when Cao Gongzi left, you asked Lu Shaode to follow you to scare others! Li Xiaojun smiled, glanced at Xiao Qi a little angrily, looked at Xiao Qi who suddenly lowered his head and turned sideways, he couldn't help but shake his head, and said helplessly: "It's really the same temper as Brother Feng!" However, Xiaoqi, this kind of thing can't be done again in the future! You don't know, the father of Cao Gongzi, who was scared, came to apologize early the next morning! also gave a lot of gifts, and scolded Cao Gongzi in person, so he almost beat him! ”
"Huh? Why didn't you fight?! He should have hit! I dared to come to the door to make an idea! Hearing this, Xiao Qi suddenly came to her senses, blinking her watery eyes, and a sly smile flashed in her eyes, which was diametrically opposed to the aggrieved appearance that seemed to have done something wrong just now.
"You! Ay! It's all spoiled you in the beginning! Hearing this, several women in the hall laughed out loud, looking at Xiao Qi who was like a little overlord, very helpless, Li Xiaojun just reached out and patted Xiao Qi's head gently, his eyes were full of tenderness, but the thoughts in his head had already floated in Chang'an City, thousands of miles away.
There is not only Lin Feng there, but also her father, who is about to arrive with the main force leading the battle for the Tang Dynasty, and her younger brother Li Xiaofeng, who has been with him since he was a child.
