The Rebirth of Han Yuxi - Chapter 1664

[Chapter 1664 Brother Xuan’s Determination]

Yun Qing and Yuxi hated corrupt officials the most, and the imperial court punished corrupt officials severely. Wang Yingda and his henchmen confiscated the property of Mo’s family, involved beheading all of them, and all his family members over the age of ten were exiled to the border towns.

When this decree reached Brother You, he knew that this task was completed.

He asked Zhao Qian to go to the largest restaurant in Luzhou to reserve a table, and then invited Zong Siyuan and other people who came to handle the case with him to eat.

Cao Cao chicken, braised stinky mandarin fish, hodgepodge, goose, stewed prawns with tea, roasted pork with rice dumplings, tiger fur tofu, fried pork with sauce-flavored Agaricus bisporus, pigeon soup, all local specialties are served.

Seeing a table full of dishes, Zong Siyuan finally couldn’t help but say: “Your Highness, this is too rich, and it completely violates the system of the imperial court.” come. But the dishes on this table, plus wine, must be hundreds of taels, I don’t know how much it exceeds the quota.

Brother You said with a smile: “As a prince, I must lead by example, and I can’t make an exception. This time, I invited you. This time everyone has worked hard to investigate the case, and this banquet was specially reserved for reward. I’ll get you.” His pockets were thick, and it was nothing to invite a guest once.

Zong Siyuan is not a person who doesn’t know how to work around. Since Brother You treats guests, he is not afraid of impeachment from the censor: “Thank you, Your Highness.” That’s why Wang Yingda is self-righteous, thinking that His Highness is really a dandy prince who doesn’t understand anything. But I don’t know that His Highness is shrewd, and he was praised by the ministers in the Ministry of Punishment and the Ministry of Household. Want to fool him, dreaming!

Everyone enjoyed this meal. After eating, Brother You said, “This case is over. When Wang Yingda and the others are beheaded, you can return to Beijing to recover your life.” Because the crimes committed by these people are too serious, they will directly issue the imperial decree without waiting for the Autumn Judgment. They beheaded in public as an example.

Hearing this, Zong Siyuan felt wrong and asked, “Your Highness, won’t you go back to Beijing with us?”

“No, it’s a rare trip. I want to taste the food from all over the world.” Yun Qing and Yuxi knew about going to Shandong, and there was no need to tell Zong Siyuan. If his mouth did not reveal the whereabouts of the goalkeeper, who knows what danger would be. It’s not beautiful to invite assassins.

Zong Siyuan hurriedly asked, “Your Highness, did the emperor and the queen agree?”

“If my parents don’t agree, I won’t be able to go!” This time, his parents were generous and even allowed him to play until a few years ago and go home. Now in early September, there are still four months until the Chinese New Year. Enough for him to eat all the special snacks along the road. Think about it, it’s beautiful.

Since the emperor and the empress agreed, Zong Siyuan naturally had no objection.

The next day, Brother You and Zong Siyuan left Luzhou. After walking together for three days, the two parted ways.

Hearing that Brother You went to Shandong to pay homage to Sage Confucius, Brother Xuan was very envious.

Brother Xuan hesitated for a long time, and finally found Yun Qing and said to Yuxi: “Father, mother, I also want to pay homage to Sage Kong.” Brother You just used Sage Kong as an excuse, and he didn’t like people who study since childhood. How can you really respect Confucius? On the other hand, Brother Xuan really worshipped Sage Kong.

Yun Qing felt that when Brother Xuan thought about it, it happened: “You don’t want your errand anymore?”

Many people cut their heads and want to get a job, but for Brother Xuan, being an official in the Ministry of Rites is really like a year. Having mentioned it this time, Brother Xuan gathered up his courage and said, “Father, mother, I don’t want to go to the Ministry of Rites as an official.”

Yun Qing frowned and said, “What? Do you think the Ministry of Rites is bad? Then which yamen do you want to go to?” Brother Xuan is no better than Brother You. He asked him to go to important yamen such as the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Household. .

Brother Xuan shook his head and said, “I don’t want to be an errand. Father, mother, I don’t like doing these things.”

“If so what do you like?”

Brother Xuan was a little timid when he saw that Yun Qing was unhappy, but he was really unhappy during this time: “I like to study. Father, mother, I still want to go back to Baitan Academy.” During those two years in Baitan Academy , it was the happiest time in his life. So, he desperately wanted to go back.

Yun Qing’s face suddenly darkened: “How old are you, and still studying? You will marry a wife in two years. Do you want me and your mother to raise your wife and children for you?”

Brother Xuan also thought about this: “I want to open a pawn shop first. When I earn money, I will open another shop to sell the four treasures of the study, calligraphy, paintings and books.”

Yun Qing looked at Oak Xi, ready to hear her opinion. Even after opening the calligraphy and painting shop, I knew that Brother Xuan was probably thinking about things for a long time.

Yuxi smiled and asked, “Why do you want to open a pawn shop and a calligraphy and painting shop?”

“Opening a pawn shop is not tedious, as long as the backing is hard and you can find a dedicated shopkeeper who knows the goods and has eyesight. As for opening a calligraphy and painting shop, that is because I often use these things, and I have a good understanding of them. And when the shop opens, I can take advantage of this. I have made friends with more literati.” These were all he decided after careful consideration.

Oak-hee didn’t object, just said, “I’ll give you a year, if both of your shops make money, I’ll do what you want. The Ministry of Rites is on duty.” This also put pressure on Brother Xuan.

“But I’m afraid I don’t have that much energy.” He was afraid that he wouldn’t be able to cope with the need to open a shop again.

Yun Qing said displeasedly: “Ayou also opened a shop while working as an errand. Now he has opened three shops without delaying errands. He still started from scratch, and your starting point is much higher than his.” Said Brother Xuan’s starting point Gao, because he knew that Brother Xuan was going to open a shop, and he would definitely ask Brother You for help.

“Okay!” There is a brother who is too capable, and the pressure of being a big brother is so great! However, as long as you do it well, you can get rid of this boring life. Thinking about it, Brother Xuan is full of energy.

After Brother You left, Yun Qing said unhappily, “Why do you still let him study?” It’s useless for Brother Xuan to study, and he feels that the more he studies, the more stupid Brother Xuan will be.

“He didn’t want to be here, he forced him, got tired of waiting for a long time, and stayed in the Ministry of Rites as a messenger.” Oak Hee said, “His ambition is to become a learned scholar, and he is reluctant to be a messenger. Since he thinks so well, let’s follow his wishes! Let him do what he likes, and he can live comfortably.” They work so hard, but they can give children more choices. .

Anyway, Brother Xuan is not the eldest son, and it is not a bad thing to like to learn. It’s just that Yun Qing was a little worried: “I’m afraid he reads too much and becomes a nerd.”

“You can’t do studies behind closed doors. After he gets married, let him go on a study tour.” Seeing Yun Qing’s disapproval, Yu Xi smiled: “Actually, I think Mr. Pang is pretty good. Great scholars, in the future, the book will be handed down to the world, and it will be passed down through the ages. There is also light on your face and mine.”

“Don’t be a nerd, I’ll be satisfied.” He didn’t dare to think about the fact that the book was handed down and passed down through the ages.

Yu Xi changed the subject with a smile: “Liu’er wrote last time that he will leave for Beijing in September, so if you count the time, you should leave now!” The child had been away from Beijing for more than four months, and Yu Xi was quite concerned about it.

“Is it inappropriate to run around with a big belly? Or let Liu Er give birth to a child and come back!” Although the official road is relatively flat, it is still a little bumpy. If anything happens, it’s too late to regret it.

Yuxi shook her head and said, “I can’t help my mother, and Liu’er is no longer a child. She will have her own considerations in her actions. In the future, we will not worry about their affairs.” They’d get bored if they managed too much, Oak-hee didn’t want to do thankless things.

Thinking about Feng Zhixi being by Liu’er’s side, Yun Qing didn’t say anything about it. There is nothing to worry about with the child’s father around.

“Ah Chiu…” Liu Er burst into tears after sneezing three times in a row.

Feng Zhixi was so nervous that she gently patted Liu Er on the back and whispered, “Did you catch a cold?” After speaking, he hurriedly handed her a handkerchief.

Liu’er took the handkerchief and wiped her mouth, then leaned on the thin quilt: “It’s not the cold, it’s probably someone talking about me. I just don’t know if it’s my parents or the big sister.”

Feng Zhixi said helplessly, “Nine times out of ten, your parents are worried about you.”

He originally meant to give birth to a child in Haocheng and then go back, but Liu Er just didn’t listen. Can’t beat Liu’er, so he can only agree.

After eating a grape, Liu Er said, “I don’t want to stay in Haocheng any longer.” There are not many people she knows here, and she has been suffocated to death for more than four months.

“Besides, my mother is not around, so I don’t know.” Although she had already given birth to a child, she was still worried about giving birth.

It’s already out, and it’s pointless to say it again. Feng Zhixi changed the subject and said good news: “I heard that A You broke a major case of corrupting ink in Anhui.” Although he was in Haocheng, he was still well informed.

The younger brother is capable, and there is light on the face of the elder sister. Liu Er said with a smile: “You brother is the best, and he has experienced in the Ministry of Punishment and the Ministry of Household over the years. This errand is not difficult for him.” He said modestly, but there was a sense of pride in his words. .

Feng Zhixi demolished the stage: “Who said that the most naughty and difficult to deal with is the fourth prince.”

“Smart children have always been difficult to deal with. Brother You was a troublemaker when he was a child, but now that he has grown up, he is not only competent but also considerate.” When she was a child, she and Brother You hated each other, but now they get along very well. Her mother said something right, breaking the bones and connecting the tendons!

Feng Zhixi said with a bitter face, “I don’t want my son to look like the Fourth Prince in the future.” He had heard of Brother You’s great achievements a lot. To have such a rebellious and difficult son would have to live ten years less. Moreover, if it is not taught well, I am afraid that twenty years of life will be shortened.
