Chapter 300
"Master thinks Yan San is not suitable?" Hongrui returned to the house and asked her master what she thought of her person.
"Kong Wu is more than witty and not resourceful." Xi Chao made a pertinent assessment, "Such a person is not suitable to be a leader." β
"Most of those alert people have nothing to do with the righteous bandits." Hongrui deeply felt that the master's requirements were high, and it was not so easy to choose people.
"Take your time." This matter is not in a hurry, the idea of the Xi Dynasty is to find a part of the bandits who have enough brains to use, although it is inevitable to prevent the occurrence of the betrayal, there are two sides to the matter and there is no absolute, the test is their own way of the emperor, do a good job to achieve results, but can only admit it.
"The bandits are cunning, and they can't prevent it from agreeing to make small moves behind their backs." Hongrui can't understand the master's intention to be a bandit, can't the others?
"Their families are in the absence of heinous criminals, who only care about themselves and live happily, regardless of their wives and children, and have the ties of their relatives to some extent." Xi Chao is not too worried, "Their identity is still the bandits on the surface, and it is impossible to play tricks, as for confessing that I am the behind-the-scenes manipulator, who will believe it, they are the ones who suffer without evidence, as long as they don't move their hearts, it's easy to say." β
"Will they have a deep grudge against their master, just because the master has seized or changed the direction of house arrest and put their family under arrest, once the power in their hands is in hand, it is not difficult to counterattack." Hongrui is not very willing to deal with this kind of person, and the way of thinking about problems is very different in the way of doing things, which can easily cause unnecessary contradictions, coupled with the low status and inferiority complex buried in the heart, resentment is absolutely inevitable, and the resulting joint reaction can not be called a trouble.
"Hostage with family members is not uncommon." Shiochao Road. "Isn't the son of a large family a derivative of hostage-taking, and it's not really a prisoner's care, and proper surveillance is necessary."
Red Rui came out of the Dark Guard Camp. Including all the subordinates in the house are from the secret guard camp, without the restraint of their families, they naturally forget about this stubble, and at this time, when they think about it, they suddenly realize that the rebound of what they are accustomed to is much smaller.
"It's all hard bones, and how many can you pick out." Hongrui is worried, every time the master chooses someone, it has to be a big battle.
"Pick as many as you want." Xichao's mentality is very flat, and he pays attention to the essence of people and not too many. Step by step, carefully select to achieve high-quality products.
Hongrui didn't disturb the master, she went to work by herself, and waited for Ah Jiu to come back and ask about it. What happened to the bandits who were knocked unconscious and robbed, the master's secret guard came to train as usual, what kind of training can be done, it is worth looking forward to.
Yan San returned to the cottage. When I came back in a hurry, I was wheezing. After drinking two bowls of water, it was much better, and I sat down to talk to the second master, and told the story of meeting the Wing King word for word.
"The brothers in the stockade really don't want to die for the Wing King?" Yan San hesitated and muttered to himself.
"The Winged King is right, some people will and some people won't, they think that such an unrestrained life is much happier than becoming a minion lackey of the superior." The second master gives a corresponding explanation.
"Do you want to sue your brother about this?" In case the news was revealed, their already tense atmosphere would be even worse, and Yan San was a little unsure.
"Fortunately, this trip is worthwhile, and I have the promise of the Winged King." Yan San breathed a sigh of relief, "What do you think?" "Ask the second boss for his opinion on this.
"Let's not tell everyone directly. Turn the corner and ask them what their ideals are. "The second master has the same mind as Yan San, and at this time, he told everyone, and it is estimated that there are few people who believe it. That's the prince of the Winged King, how can they see it if they want to see it, don't be the rhetoric that you didn't wake up last night and coaxed people to play.
"There is a lot of resistance among the brethren to the officials, just as the Winged King said, we don't have to show our loyalty." The second master is not saying that it is not good to be a subordinate of the Wing King, "The thing that everyone thinks about is very simple, people like us are not worthy of being the loyal dogs of the Wing King." "It's not just the identity gap, it's also the strength gap.
"Well, let's see what everyone thinks before deciding." Yan San's mood was a little heavy, sure enough, what he thought was too simple, it was really for the good of everyone, and some people might not necessarily accept such an arrangement.
The way of asking questions during the small talk made the people in the village relax a lot, and what they said was about the slim future, and everyone was easily induced to get together and talk about the life they wanted to live.
Most people want to return to the land where they were born, farm, support their families, marry wives and have children, and live the path that a normal person should walk in his life.
Some people retreat to the next best thing, not wanting to return to their hometowns, and want to find a place to settle down around Shangjing, and live the life of sunrise and sunset. I don't remember what my hometown is like, five years is enough time to change a thing, and I don't want to go back to bring back the memories that are not good, and I want to be with everyone to have a foil.
There are also people who want to go to school, want to go to business and earn a lot of money, no longer be bullied and laughed at because of poverty, and live a truly rich life.
Some people lead the topic to the matter of working for the dignitaries and nobles, and most people scoff, that is, these dignitaries oppress the people, and they have not been trampled on, why should they treat these people as cattle and horses, they must be crazy, and besides, their lives are not worth it and cannot be squandered at will, are there few things that are not looked down upon by the powerful, and they don't go to the best conditions, they care about their own lives and the lives of their families.
Besides, the powerful are so easy to cling to, and those who are above the top of the pleasure are not lacking in people who work for them as fools, and they are far from their lives, and they are all in vain without a good identity.
The collected news gathered in one place, Yan San and the second master sat in one place and stared dryly, although they had a bottom in their hearts, they were still shocked by the words of their friends.
"So be it." The second master sighed, the truth is only known to him and Yan San, and there is no need to add unnecessary mental burdens to everyone.
"Okay." Yan San let out a long sigh, and the panic in his heart couldn't be described in words.
The tension was relieved after two months of worry, and they found that the man in black had left quietly as if he had appeared, and finally got good news after many investigations, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and finally had a good life.
Even if the men in black no longer show up, they have no intention of moving back to their original territory, the current place is very good. It's good for everyone to settle down and do things, and to have a place to live.
Ouyang Lin's matter dragged on for two months and finally came to an end, thanks to Yu Xichao's annoyance of Ouyang Ye's explicit and hints every time he retreated from the court, and let Mu Jinming order to take it back.
Ouyang Ye was not easy. Looked at by his son's distrustful gaze, this old face is really groundless, the first time this situation has occurred, the son has his own ideas when he is older, even if he picks up the shameful title, the impulse in his heart is still there, and his bitter heart seems to be in vain.
I wanted to negotiate again, and the father and son had a good talk. Ouyang Lin couldn't escape his own fiery eyes, and sometimes he regretted it very much, why didn't he marry another wife in the first place. gave birth to a few more sons to inherit the mantle, and now Ouyang Lin blindly does not listen to his own persuasion, which is really chilling.
That's it, when this unfilial son hits a wall with the Wing King, he knows that what he said is true. Ouyang Ye thought of himself a hundred years later. Although there are not more people in the family than those big families, there are a few particularly outstanding ones, in the case of not counting on their sons, they can find another way to maintain the stability of Ouyang Mansion in the future, not to seek prosperity as when they are there, just to not decline and adjust to zero.
Time flies and the New Year is approaching. The streets and alleys are more lively than in the past, and there is a little more taste of the New Year, and there is an endless stream of people buying and buying. The faces of the people were filled with festive smiles. Last year's New Year's Festival was terrifying, and this year I want to have a good time.
The pilgrims who went to Puhua Temple to burn incense and worship the Buddha crowded next to each other and could not see the end at a glance, and most of the people who asked for peace also went to worship in the temple where the ashes of the martyrs were enshrined with curiosity, expressing their respect for the dead soldiers.
There are a lot of people in Xiu Mu today, Mu Jin can't wait to change into casual clothes and leave the palace, and pull the Xi Dynasty to go to the crowded royal temple together.
It was rare for the Xi Dynasty to see Mu Jinming come out and be happy once he didn t refuse to go to a noisy place when the emperor seemed to be out of the scenery How many people followed behind his butt were not free.
"This year, let's go to worship the Buddha and ask for peace." In addition to himself, including this country, Mu Jinming had a few more different feelings in his eyes.
"You're not afraid of being recognized by acquaintances?" Xi Chao stood on a high place and took a look, there were several families of the car parked outside the temple, no matter how the identity of the official, to the Puhua Temple is the same as the people, there is no special difference, want to use the identity to do a convenient thing has never happened, this is the royal temple is not their own home, if you want to find a special also have a brain.
"Let's wait for less people to go again, anyway, the Buddha statue can't run, use vegetarian food in the temple at noon, and go back to the palace at night to make it, I want to eat the noodles you made." Mu Jinming has coveted Xichao's craftsmanship for a long time, if it weren't for Xichao's busy sky, he really wanted to entrust Xichao with three meals a day.
"Didn't you just eat it on your birthday?" Xi Chao raised his eyebrows, Mu Jinming dealt with eating, and the cook who was going to go didn't return it, saying that it was convenient to find someone when he wanted to eat, and he didn't know where to get the recipe and threw it to the two of them to study, to satisfy his appetite, and this one can be interested.
"Aren't you idle?" Mu Jin said as a matter of course, "Birthday is not the same as birthday, you have to remember that no matter where you are, you have to come back and cook a bowl of longevity noodles for me on my birthday." "Domineering put forward his own requirements, consciously not overdoing it, and feeling good in his heart.
"Okay." The Xi Dynasty can't screw Mu Jinming, not to mention that his birthday is not only to celebrate his birth, but also to remember his deceased parents, which the whole country can't celebrate.
This year's birthday is still canceled in the name of filial piety, and the banquet during the New Year's Festival is canceled at the same time, on the grounds that the labor teachers should not toss in the cold weather.
The courtiers gladly accepted it, not to mention how happy they were, it was much better to be warm and celebrate the New Year with the juniors at home than to go to the palace to participate in the banquet.
Xi Chao and Mu Jinming were wearing ferret fur outside, and Xi Chao originally wanted to wear fox fur, but the domineering Mu Jinming was thrown aside and replaced with the same one, fortunately, the two of them were of similar size and length were just right, otherwise they had to repair the edge before they could wear it out.
"How did you spend the New Year's Festival, do you want to go back to the Prime Minister's Mansion?" Mu Jinming was thinking about how to spend the New Year of the two of them.
"Not going back." Xi Chao was reluctant to set foot in the Prime Minister's Mansion, "Just the two of us plus a Gonggong Li." "There are fewer people, and it looks very lonely.
"Why don't you call Imperial Doctor Xu's father and son?" Mu Jinming put the only two remaining members of the Xu family in the category of trusters.
"Why should your own family comfort come to the palace to accompany you, you can't eat just by looking at you." Xi Chao looked at Mu Jinming and teased. Identity differentiation is the biggest problem.
"What's that, it's a great honor to be able to sit at the same table with us for the New Year's dinner." Mu Jinming retorted, "Maybe my heart is happy." β
"That's what you think." Shiochao chuckled. "Don't scare people, Imperial Doctor Xu is not young, I heard that the matchmaker is about to step on the threshold of his house in the past few days, and there is an endless stream of people proposing marriage."
"Who asked you to take Xu Mian with you to show off your appearance, the person is good and shrewd, the main reason for emptying is that you are close to him." Mu Jinming nodded his center of gravity, "I can't climb your big tree." Let's start from the side. β
"Xu Mian is twenty-three this year, right?" Xi Chao hadn't heard Xu Mian talk about it.
"What's the matter with you?" Mu Jinming was a little sour, and the Xi Dynasty had more men in contact with than he was a brother.
"What do you want?" Xi Chao sneered. "It's that if I want to marry Xu Mian, I may not dare to marry." My father said that he would not be able to marry in this life.
"Don't mention this, if you want to know, you can ask Xu Mian, most of the women who want to marry into the Xu Mansion are likely to fall in love with the Xu family's masterless mother. You don't have to serve your in-laws when you get married. It's up to you to call the shots. Mu Jinming heard the palace maids in the palace mention gossip about who is the best to marry.
"Indeed, it should be the Xu family's own worries, according to the Xu family's current family is not high or low, it belongs to the middle, and the young lady from a high-ranking family may not be willing to marry, and she feels that she has no future as a doctor, and she has to do things with her head all day long, and one is not good for the whole family." Xi Chao had heard people talk about it. When choosing the first marriage, you generally choose your peers, and you have a foil in the hospital.
"Go to Merlin." Mu Jinming pulled the tide towards a shortcut to avoid crowded places. There are many people who enjoy the plum blossoms when they are blooming, so they don't want to go to find a place where no one is there to enjoy quietly.
Just turned a corner, and almost bumped into the same person when he walked in a hurry, but fortunately he reacted quickly and stopped, and at a glance, it turned out to be the presiding abbot of Puhua Temple.
"Amitabha Buddha has seen two donors." The host Mingkong knew that the emperor was coming, and now he saw that it was inconvenient to reveal his identity.
"I've seen the abbot." Mu Jinming politely folded his hands and returned the salute.
"There are a lot of people in Merlin, and there are rich ladies playing here." Ming Kong just passed by from there and kindly reminded him, knowing that these two people didn't like outsiders to disturb, so he mentioned a hidden place.
"Thank you, Abbot." Mu Jinming was very polite to this host.
"This donor." Mingkong's gaze turned to the silent Xi Dynasty, "The Guan donor has excellent luck, but it's a pity that the bloody killing is too strong, which is not conducive to the body and mind, and I hope that the donor will stare quietly and not be fascinated by the killing." β
Xi Chao does not believe in Buddhism, and he is noncommittal to Mingkong, but Mu Jinming beside him is slightly distraught, and asks for a solution.
Mingkong Tiyì suppressed with Buddha beads, the longer it is worn, the more it has the effect of concentrating and calming the qi, and it is beneficial to the Wing King, and the woman is already a yin plus the killing is too victorious and the bloody resentment does not dissipate, and it is very dangerous to the body in the long run.
Mu Jinming wrote them down one by one, sent Mingkong away, stood opposite Xichao and looked at the person from head to toe, and said leisurely: "I know you don't believe this, just take it as my heart, don't let me worry." "I plan to personally prepare a string of Buddhist beads for the Xi Dynasty, burn incense and chant sutras every day, and it will be completed in 7749 days.
"There are so many things, you don't have to ......" The four words of "doing it yourself" collided with Mu Jinming's strong eyes, and he couldn't say anything to refuse.
"You and I each wear one, it is not troublesome, and chanting can be beneficial to me." Mu Jinming insisted.
"Okay, I'll accompany you." Xi Chao is reluctant to let his brother suffer alone, whether it is useful or not, he is just a sincere brother for himself.
"Okay." Mu Jinming immediately put on a smiling face, and it was better to have Xichao with him.
"Let's go, there will be a lot of people in a while." Xi Chao no longer mentions it.
When you come to Meilin, a large number of beautifully blooming plum blossoms bloom in pink, white, and red, and you will be intoxicated by your body and mind at a glance.
"There are also plums in the palace, but they are not as delicate as those that bloom here, and the red ones are like fire and white as snow." Mu Jinming couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion, and suddenly his heart was full of sorrow, and he remembered many things he didn't want to think about.
"The palace is carefully cultivated by domestication, and the piece in front of me is free-range, growing naturally and wantonly at will, not paying attention to the overall form, only looking for the fragrance of flowers." Xi Chao's voice answered in a shallow voice, and his eyes were as dark as ink, and he couldn't see any other feelings.
"It's weird to stand here like you're out of the way." Mu Jinming complained for no reason.
"It's not impossible if you want to be in it." Xi Chao chuckled, "Be prepared." β
"Let's go, just let me be willful once, I don't know when I will have such a chance again." Mu Jin sighed secretly that it was not easy to make a trip, and it was a pity that he couldn't have fun.
Xichao stepped into the plum forest with Mu Jinming, and the shallow cold fragrance greeted him, giving people a feeling of comfort and freshness, and the scenery that entered the eyes was intoxicated.
There were other people in the forest who came to enjoy the plum blossoms, and Xi Chao and Mu Jinming did not go to crowded places, but only stopped and admired them near the plum forest.
Two snow-white slender figures walked side by side, attracting the attention of the others in Merlin, half curious and half wondering, whose son was so graceful? Under the cover of Merlin, the true faces of the two could not be seen.
"Childe, what are you looking at?" The little guy who was following him saw that his son-in-law was staring at one place without moving, and he was curious and looked towards that place.
"Nothing." said that it was nothing, but it was indeed turbulent in his heart, and Murong Xuan would not show too deliberate when he retracted his gaze.
Slightly twisted his eyebrows and doubted, how could the emperor and the winged king come out of the palace here? Murong Xuan, like everyone else, came here to enjoy the plum blossoms after entering the incense, but he never expected to see unexpected people.
The same snow-white big man and the same figure stood side by side, looking like brothers or friends, Murong Xuan was just guessing if it was someone he knew, and when he raised his eyes, he saw two familiar faces, which brought him endless fright.
There are so many people here, how can the emperor come here! Murong Xuan only had this sentence in his mind, and when he saw that the Wing King was by his side and behaved intimately with the emperor, he involuntarily began to think about it again.
"Childe, it's time to go back." The little guy looked at it for a long time and didn't see anything special, and reminded the son not to forget to go to today's noon appointment.
"Let's go." Murong Xuan gathered his thoughts and left the Imperial Temple. (Want to know more exciting news about "Tide Dynasty"?)
