79 Chapter 79
The secretary of the military department of the Ren Dynasty is a member of the first rank, who can manage all affairs, be in charge of the grain and grass of the garrisons in various places, the transfer of troops, and the appointment of army officials.
The second lady was so happy that she went crazy, because this was the highest position that a military attache could rise, even if the old lady and uncle had spent their entire lives in the world, no one had ever occupied the edge of this position.
For hundreds of years, there have only been two military department scholars.
And the appointment of the second master of the sword this time is also of great significance to the entire sword mansion - this at least means that the supply allocated by the imperial court to the sword mansion will be in place every year.
There is no need to give more, as long as the amount is given, the Dao Mansion can afford to raise five hundred generals, grain, grass and silver are no longer a problem, and they can even make up a little bit of the horses that they have not even dared to mention because they have no money, so as to make up for the war preparations.
Now there are one hundred and twenty horses for the five hundred soldiers of the whole battalion. And the horses of the Ren Dynasty are expensive, and the war horses are even more expensive, if a good war horse is selected by thousands of people, a good war horse is worth as much as three hundred taels, and more than that, the forage for raising war horses can not be ambiguous, which can ensure their speed and strength.
If you match nearly 400 good horses, and match the saddle, long arrows, and other equipment, you will not be able to match it at all without 200,000 taels of silver.
Raising a private army is very expensive. If these are not what the emperor said to match, it is very difficult to match a good squad with the strength of the whole country, and it is very difficult to match a family of generals who rely on supplies and rewards.
Of course, this is also a means for the imperial court to control the two families that can have private armies - the Dao and Wei families must rely on the emperor to support an army of 500 elite soldiers.
In addition to the barracks stationed in Beijing, the two families of Dao and Wei have been forbidden to own other lands since ancient times, such as the shops in the city of Liangtian Zhuangyuan.
They had no other way to make money, but to stay in the imperial city and live on the emperor's rewards, which was the only reason why the emperors who were still able to control them did not take back their military power for hundreds of years.
And now, the military department Shangshu, who is in charge of the world's soldiers, horses, grain and grass, has been appointed by the people in the Dao Mansion, and this news has blown up so that except for the general of the Manchu Imperial Court, the officials of the entire imperial court have not come back to their senses for a while.
What about the emperor's balance? Many pro-imperial parties who claim to know the emperor's mind are a little hard to believe their ears.
The second lady of this knife mansion didn't go anywhere, and she came to make a special trip to report the good news to Aunt Lin's nephew and daughter-in-law, "The second master has been appointed as the secretary of the military department, and he has just entered the palace to receive the decree, nephew and daughter-in-law, thank you so much, you can rest assured, our house will definitely remember his kindness, and will not be ungrateful, you can rest assured, just rest assured, you must rest assured!" โ
The second lady was already crying with joy, she was usually very calm, but at this time she was so happy that her demeanor was completely gone, and her speech was a little upside down.
Aunt Lin is also happy, in her eyes, the second master is on the throne, that is to say, the emperor wants to deduct the grain and grass for their family in the future, and the second master will go up and tear it up with him!
This is great, but you can't win, as long as you can see the emperor every day, you can only cry once a day, and you can annoy the emperor to death......
Anyway, if the supply is not given properly, their Daofu is just a bunch of beggars, and it is not much different from real beggars, and it is okay to cry four times a day to be poor.
At this time, she was also a little happy and a little out of shape, "Eh, second aunt, I'm also happy, think about it, the grain and grass given to us in the harem can be counted, I don't want to worry about how to break one into ten flowers every day, you don't know, just thinking about this, I can wake up laughing in my dreams, hahahaha......"
Saying that, she was afraid that she would get too carried away, so she quickly covered her mouth and smiled.
Money, it's all money, as soon as the second master takes office, that is, the money spent in vain is flying to their house, she doesn't need the people of the Dao Mansion to take the money to confiscate the public, the emperor will give them as much as they should, she doesn't have to stick to this mansion, don't say that little day - too beautiful, beauty is just one word.
"Yes, yes," the second lady is not easy to get close to, at this time, listening to her nephew and daughter-in-law having fun with her, she also shook Aunt Lin's hand, and smiled so hard that her eyes couldn't find a slit: "We are really bitter." โ
Aunt Lin nodded with a smile, and said, "Second aunt, okay, let's support this family together." This family is not only my family's eldest lang's, but also the second master and you, the third master and the third aunt, as well as our sons and daughters and military generals, but also our ancestors of the sword house left to us, we have to support it well, not to mention restoring the glory of the past, but ask the descendants of the martial gods of the sword family to live like a person, don't you say? โ
The second lady also eased up a little at this time, she nodded, and exhaled again, "That's the case, there is this good opportunity, you must be careful in the future." โ
Don't let down this hard-won turnaround.
She didn't know how this turnaround came about, but she knew that it was not easy to come by-the old lady and the big house died so bizarrely, if nothing big happened in this mansion, she would never believe it.
But this is not something she can ask, and she will not ask, she just needs to seize the opportunity that belongs to her, do not miss it, and do not lose it.
**
This Xiangdao Mansion was ecstatic when it got the news, and there was an endless stream of people who came to Daoxi, that is, people from the same court, and those who came to congratulate were about to step on the door of Pingdao Mansion.
There had never been so many people in the Dao Mansion who came to congratulate him.
Now, the old Hanlin family who said that the knife is hidden is also envied, and the little lady of that family came to the door to reconcile with her handkerchief.
As soon as the situation changes, many things become very different.
Here, Aunt Lin followed the second lady, they met a lot of wives and ladies of the side family, etc., and this affectionately greeted the nobles and relatives for two days, and someone from the Anwang Mansion quietly came to invite her over.
I heard that Princess An was much better, and asked someone to come and talk to her, so Aunt Lin followed with peace of mind, not as panicked as last time, and almost cried on the road.
As soon as she saw the third sister Yi, she saw that her face was still pale, but she looked much better, and her face was no longer whiter than white paper like she saw a few days ago, she also smiled and greeted them happily, "I have seen Lord An, just past the third sister." โ
An Dynasty laughed, laughing very unnaturally, and just about to open her mouth, as if she remembered something, she lowered her head again.
He originally wanted to ask his imperial brother to directly order the Zhou Banxian of the Lin family to be summoned to Beijing, but he was reprimanded by the princess, and now she doesn't let him speak, so he can't speak, so he can only keep his mouth closed tightly, waiting for the princess to give an order to let him open his mouth and open his mouth again.
"You come and sit, I don't allow him to speak, I get angry when I hear him say one more word, and you are just like me, just ignore him." Yi Sanniang couldn't get out of bed yet, so she beckoned to Aunt Lin and said lightly.
Wang An, who was punished to sit on a chair and couldn't sit next to the princess, flattened his mouth aggrievedly, but he didn't dare to say anything, for fear that the princess would be really angry.
"You have always been the little lady of the third sister......" As soon as she sat down, Yi Sanniang opened her mouth.
Although the third sister said this indifferently, when Aunt Lin, who had admired and loved her since she was a child, heard it, she immediately interrupted her and nodded, and her mouth was crooked, "Yes, third sister, I am your little lady, and I have always been." โ
It's so nice that the goddess sister loves her too!
Seeing that her face was blooming with joy, Yi Sanniang couldn't stop laughing, reached over and shook her hand, and said with a light smile: "Okay, don't be funny......"
Seeing that she was about to shake her head and deny it again, Yi Sanniang shook her head again, and when she saw that she immediately closed her mouth again, she was so well-behaved that she listened to her words like when she was a child, and the smile on Yi Sanniang's lips deepened.
This little lady will still make her as happy as before.
"An Wanghun, seeing that your medicine is working, said that you will go to Jiangnan to snatch the half-immortal back......"
What is robbery? It was an order to invite him to come, and King An was anxious to listen to it, and stood up and gestured to the princess, saying that he was not so bastard.
The princess didn't see it, and still said lightly to Aunt Lin: "I remember that the half-immortal didn't like the capital, so I didn't let him come, and I also had a few doctors with good medical skills here, saying that the medicines you left behind had good effects, and what was even more rare was that the effects were not violent, they were all very mild blood tonic pills, and calming the nerves and detoxifying and detoxifying liquids, and the most rare thing was that everything was not poisonous......
Aunt Lin nodded, "That's what I usually eat and play, you also know my father's body, although my mother didn't take medicine to give birth to me, but my father is also worried that I have fetal poison like Huaigui, so I asked the half-immortal to do some detoxification for me since I was a child, blood tonic and other pill potions, I have been tired of eating from snacks to adulthood, and now I want to hide when I see them." โ
"That is, you can eat without being sick?"
"Can eat, warm and replenished ......" Aunt Lin then remembered, her sister can usually eat this, "Third sister, I just remembered, you can also eat, I usually eat these things are warm, this I am an ordinary person, and there is no poison on my body, my father is afraid that I will eat it badly, and these small things made for me are all a single tonic made of โกโก nature, each of which is the same, a medicinal property, and there is no possibility of restraint, and it is okay for pregnant women to eat it." โ
"Well, that's what I thought, you also brought me a bottle before, and you also reminded me that I have eaten it, and it is very good."
Speaking of this, Aunt Lin lowered her head embarrassedly and whispered: "That is too expensive, Zhou Banxian has made a few more, I secretly gave you a bottle and my father knew about it, and then I didn't give it to you." Third sister, it's not that our father and daughter are distressed about money, but that Zhou Banxian has worked too hard to do this, of course, cough, it's also a little expensive. โ
It was not easy for her father to support her.
She has been piled up with gold and silver since she was a child, and eating a little is a matter of a pile of silver.
"I know......" Seeing that she was still embarrassed, Yi Sanniang laughed again, "Then I'll eat the ones you left." โ
"You just eat, that is, I don't have it here, I still have to send it to Yizhou, but when you finish eating, it has already been delivered there, you can eat it, and I will send it to you until the baby is born."
"Oh, that's not necessary." Yi Sanniang laughed again.
She brought Aunt Lin's hand to her stomach, "I felt that they couldn't survive that day, but now that they have stabilized, they should be fine, there are two living ...... here."
"Two alive?" Aunt Lin was a little stunned and didn't understand.
"This time it's the third child, and there will only be two children born who are fatal...... Yi Sanniang said lightly, "But no matter what, they all survived, so it's okay, one life for three lives, this child's debt, I will pay him back in the next life." โ
"You don't have to pay it back, I'm still it, it's all my fault, how can I blame you, I forced you." At this time, King An, who had his head down, scratched the robe at his knees, he felt guilty and self-blamed and sad, and he didn't dare to speak, he only dared to mumble softly and tell himself to himself.
"Also, maybe ......" and Aunt Lin's tongue was a little knotted at this time.
"I already know," Yi Sanniang smiled at her, "and that's the best outcome." Little lady, you once told me that there is no perfection in the world, but this is the case, and we must work hard to live every day in order to be worthy of the hardships we have endured. โ
Aunt Lin's tongue was completely knotted, and after a while, she raised a smile and said to her goddess sister: "That is, the living only laugh more, and the people who love her underground feel that they are not unjustly dead." Third sister, that's what my dad told me before, he said girl, even if your dad is dead, don't keep crying and mourning a face, we will live how the days should be, and when the days are good, think about my dad in my spare time, at that time your dad and I must have eaten meat underground, and you think of me, that little day must have been peaceful and beautiful, and people are also laughing. He said that was the life he wanted me to live. I also feel now, this is the life I am living now, very relieved and happy, and when I think of him, I realize that I am really smiling, you see......"
She smiled and looked at her third sister.
Yi Sanniang laughed deeply when she heard this, she patted the little lady's smiling little face, and nodded, "Well, it's beautiful." 166 Reading Network
