Chapter 924: Surprise

The officials in the Great Xia court, whether they are like the old Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry, who are very old and experienced old officials, or such as the Shangshu Fang Qian of the Criminal Department, as the mainstay of the court at this time, all deeply understand that the Great Xia at this time is moving towards a new stage that was unimaginable every day, which can be described as truly changing with each passing day.

For ordinary people, they only need to embrace and accept this steady stream of new things, and enjoy the convenience brought by these divine things, but for the civil and military officials who are the decision-making brains of the entire Great Xia, there is undoubtedly more to consider.

The most important function of a courtier is to share the worries of the saint, so after Lao Shangshu's words fell, these officials who were stepping down the steps all had complicated eyes and even a little shame.

Generally speaking, those who can step on the Emperor's Great Hall every day and face the Holy Ministers are all high-quality officials of all ministries, so since the beginning of the dynasty, the officials who have stepped out of the Emperor's Palace are not young, but now this situation is quietly changing.

In the spring of Shenjing City, under the slightly dazzling sunshine, behind the hundreds of officials, there was an extremely young figure walking slowly, this person was in his early twenties, his body was as tall as a pine, and he was wearing a heroic black official uniform.

Then the five Shangshu who walked in the front, after stepping down from the high platform of the Emperor's Palace, did not continue to enter the carriage, but waited in place together, and then bowed to the young man who was slowly walking behind, and said in unison:

"I waited until I learned that Grandpa Lin gave birth to a daughter a few days ago, and I would like to congratulate here, congratulations!"

After the congratulations of many officials fell, Lin Xiao, whose back was straight and his face was becoming more and more mature, showed a smile, then raised his hand to return the salute, and responded:

"Lin Xiao has thanked you here, in a few days, if you have time, the kid will set up a banquet in the mansion, and I hope you will appreciate your face. ”

"That must be!"

After a short greeting, the carriages parked on the squares inside and outside the White Emperor Palace started again, bathed in the warm sun, and slowly drove out of the noon gate and drove towards their respective yamen, and inside the carriage, the older officials all raised their hands to touch their chins, and opened their mouths to let out a low murmur:

"At the age of more than 20 years old, you can go to the emperor's palace to discuss politics, it can be seen that the saint is thick, the tiger father has no dogs, it seems that the Zhenyu Mansion in Liuye Lane, there is another immovable king, maybe this little grandfather, may be after his father and Wei Guogong, another bull ear in the Great Xia army. ”

Just as the rest of the hundred officials were thinking, Lin Xiao, who had a young and steady face, was sitting in the carriage of the Zhenyu Mansion at this time, raised his eyes and looked at a burly, tower-like figure in front of him, and slowly spoke:

"Tiezhu, you have always been calm on weekdays, but today you are waiting early outside the noon gate of the White Emperor Palace, it seems that you are indeed thinking about it, or you will have a child like me?"

After Lin Xiao finished speaking, the corners of his mouth were raised again, revealing an extremely hearty smile, and his voice continued to say:

"You may find it difficult to understand that once I become a father, this subtle change in my heart, I am more inclined to understand it as a spiritual breakthrough, once for a long time, I lived in hatred, but after the birth of my daughter, the state of mind is completely different.

"It's as if you have both a weakness and a strong armor. ”

After Lin Xiao finished speaking, the tree spirit guard Tiezhu, who was wearing light armor and a national character face, nodded and responded:

"Since you entered the Dire Division, you and I have often traveled all the way, so I can feel that your state of mind has really changed at this time, which is undoubtedly a blessing. ”

After Tie Zhu finished speaking, after contemplating for a few breaths, he continued to open his mouth and said:

"Now that you have got your revenge and become a father, you should also think about the next direction, the prestige of the Zhenyu Mansion, once everyone in Great Xia knew about it, and I served in the Endless Mountain Western Xinjiang for several years, so I can completely feel the impulse in your heart, your heart, longing for the battlefield!"

After the deep voice of the iron pillar fell, Lin Xiao did not speak directly, but looked at the Shenjing City outside the carriage window, and fell into a deep silence, but in his eyes, layers of thoughts flowed.

This carriage embroidered with the family crest of the Zhenyu Mansion departed from the White Emperor's Palace, crossed the central avenue of the gradually awakening of Shenjing City, and after spending half an hour, drove into the Taiping Ruins, and finally stopped at the gate of Shenjing Station.

Then Lin Xiao and Tie Zhu stepped out of the carriage, standing and watching the crowd pouring out from Shenjing Station, after a while, Tie Zhu's face was happy, and his tower-like burly body stepped forward, and at the same time, within the huge arch of Shenjing Station, several people walked out slowly along the crowd.

Since the Chinese New Year, the old man Wu, who stepped into Shenjing City for the second time, looked up at the Taiping Ruins in front of him, which was lively and the skyline was spectacular, and let out a heartfelt admiration:

"Although the old man I only came to Shenjing City half a year ago, but this time I only stayed in Qingsong Town for a long time, and when I came again, I was still shocked to the point that the soul was shaken, this Shenjing City is simply changing too fast, I remember the last time I came, there was a stretch of buildings, and they had not yet been built. ”

Old Man Wu's old face wrinkled with a smile, and everyone around him could feel his excitement like a child, not just him, even Tie Lan, the little girl who had always quarreled with the old man on weekdays, and the boss, who also had a small mouth at this time, opened her mouth and exclaimed, but despite this, Tie Lan's little hand was still tightly holding a young man who was blindfolded with a black cloth.

Then beside the three of them, the virtuous and fair-faced iron-pillar wife looked at her husband who was in the crowd, and showed a happy and bright smile.

Compared with the time when he came, the carriage of the Zhenyu Mansion from the Taiping Ruins back to the house suddenly became extremely lively, and the Tiezhu family who came all the way from Qingsong Town, Ganzhou, was still sighing at the rapid changes of Shenjing City, and then the old man Wu excitedly asked:

"Little grandfather, is this just-born doll male or female?"

"It's a girl. ”

As soon as Lin Xiao's voice with a smile came out, the smile on Old Man Wu's face was even worse, and then his voice sounded:

"The girl doll is good, considerate, and takes care of people. ”

And I don't know if it was intentional, when the old man said this, he glanced at Tie Zhu and his wife beside him, which made the latter's face red all of a sudden, and finally Tielan, a little ignorant little girl, seemed to think of something, raised her head proudly, looked at Lin Xiao with a smile on her face, and said softly:

"Little grandpa, don't be surprised to give you a surprise. ”

After finishing speaking, Tie Lan directly raised her right hand, gently patted the back of Lin Xiao's hand on the side, and in the next breath, Lin Xiao's originally somewhat wooden head slowly lifted, and directly opened his mouth to spit out a word clearly:

"Brother!"

As soon as these words came out, the entire carriage was silent, and then Lin Xiao stretched out his hand and pressed it on the desk in front of him, and the whole person suddenly straightened forward, his eyes were like electricity!
