Emperor Yonghui took the prince to the ten-mile long pavilion outside the city to welcome the triumph of the army, and set up a palace banquet to entertain the soldiers in the evening.

The prince saw Xiao Shihe very kindly, and accompanied him to eat and drink, and both of them were drunk, and then they were helped back to the East Palace by the palace people.

As soon as the prince left, Xiao Shiji wiped the sweat from his forehead and stopped pretending to be drunk.

In the weather at the beginning of September, Chang'an City has entered autumn, and the heat has faded by the evening, leaving only a place to be shaded.

However, when men eat and drink in the main hall, they will inevitably laugh and make trouble, and if they drink too much, they forget the difference between up and down, the difference between monarchs and ministers, and the fight is very lively.

Emperor Yonghui looked at the lively scene in the main hall and was extremely happy. - He, the emperor, did not insult his ancestors.

Only at this moment can he stand in front of the spirit of the first emperor and proudly say: I am not wrong!

He killed his brother and killed his brother, and forced his father to abdicate, although he was forced, but there was always a feeling of regret lingering in his heart.

This guilt became more and more obvious with the passing of Empress Murong.

Over the years, he has been in a state of semi-abandonment of the government, and has been working hard to cultivate the crown prince Qizhi.

Even for Xiao Shiji, he also tried to let go, give him opportunities, give him power, and see how far he could go.

Xiao Shiji really lived up to expectations and laid the largest piece of land for Daqi so far.

As a military general, to be able to open up territory for the country is to fulfill the greatest responsibility.

At the banquet, Emperor Yonghui had already announced the reward for Xiao Shiji. He is already a duke of the country, and he is a good product. Because of the foreign surname, it is not good to be crowned king. So he's already unsealable.

However, in order to praise his merits, Emperor Yonghui also named Xiao Shi and the general of Tiance, fiefdom Luoyang, and asked him to go to Luoyang to form Tiance Mansion.

General Tiance was the title of Emperor Yonghui back then, and now, he has transferred this title to Xiao Shiji.

At the same time, Emperor Yonghui gave the post of Fan Yang Jiedu envoy to Anguo Gongan Zichang.

This kind of reward, it is difficult to say whether it is rising or falling.

Just in terms of level and fiefdom. Xiao Shiji must have risen. Moreover, the military power that the general of Tiance can control is greater than that of the Jiedu envoy.

Theoretically speaking, General Tiance can lead the world's soldiers and horses.

The strength of the Jiedu envoy is also under the general command of the general of Tiance.

But in terms of real power, he has risen and fallen.

In Fanyang. Xiao Shiji is the king of Fan Yang. Everything is at his disposal.

But now. He had to give everything he had run in Fan Yang to others.

However, Jean's person is actually An Zichang.

I have to say. Emperor Yonghui still knew Xiao Shi and this person very well.

If Fan Yang Jiedu gave the position to someone else, Xiao Shiji would definitely be angry.

Only An Zichang, Xiao Shiji will not complain.

As soon as this reward, which was both praised, pressed and balanced, came out, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty admired Emperor Yonghui so much that they threw themselves to the ground.

Even the sworn enemies who had been impeaching Xiao Shi and accepting bribes on the battlefield and recruiting beauties did not have the slightest objection to Emperor Yonghui's decision.

For them, they only succeeded by pulling Xiao Shiji out of that hot position.

And for those who support Xiao Shiji, they are naturally more satisfied to see that the general they support can lead the world's soldiers and horses.

The hidden edge in this reward is only a very few people can see.

Of course, even if these people see it, they won't say a word.

Xiao Shiji happily accepted the order, and said many words of gratitude, and all his performance was impeccable.

Emperor Yonghui remained silent, and rewarded his two younger sons with the false position of lieutenant of the light car.

After the palace banquet, Xiao Shiji returned to the Zhuguo Mansion, and while sending a message to Du Hengshuang of Fan Yang, asking her to pack up her things, pack up and go to Luoyang with him, he also sent someone to Jingzhao Yin's Mansion to deliver a letter, saying that he asked to see Xu Shao and Fang Yuniang.

The next day, Xiao Shiji came to Xu Shao's outer study in Jingzhao Yin Mansion.

Xu Shao personally came out to greet him, and asked him very excitedly: "Have you got the things?" ”

Xiao Shiji nodded.

Xu Shao closed the door of the outer study with his own hands, turned around and asked Xiao Shiji, "Can you show me?" ”

Xiao Shiji handed him a small oilcloth bag and said lightly: "This is a copy I copied." The real thing is in my house. ”

Xu Shao was stunned for a moment, leaned over and smiled bitterly: "You still don't believe me?" ”

only showed him a fake, naturally because he was afraid that he would ruin the authenticity.

"It's not that I don't believe you. It's just that Chaoyang and Princess Chaoyi have both died, and the people in this world who know about this matter are probably only the two of us, or your two eldest sons. But they are one with you, and naturally they will not get along with you. Xiao Shiji put his hands behind his back, his eyebrows were clear, looked at Xu Shao's increasingly old face, and said slowly.

Xu Shao regained his composure, straightened up, looked at Xiao Shiji, and said, "Even if you don't believe that I will keep my promise, you should believe that I am for our Xu family, and you don't dare to ignore it at all." ”

Xiao Shiji nodded, "I believe this." "If it weren't for the Xu family, with Xu Shao's ingenuity, why would he be so staggered.

"Then why don't you show me the real thing?" Xu Shao asked.

Xiao Shiji looked at Xu Shao steadily, rubbed a delicate sachet in his other hand, and said word by word: "But I don't believe you told me the whole truth." ”

What is a lie? - Part of the truth, but also a lie.

Because the one-sided truth can completely blind people's eyes, and the images that people can see are completely different from the real situation. And partial truth is more deceptive than an outright lie.

Xu Shao's face became more and more gloomy, his eyebrows gradually gathered, and there was anger gathering between his eyebrows, "What do you mean by this?" I can swear that I am definitely not hiding anything. "Regarding what his dead original wife did, he told Xiao Shiji what he had heard, what else did Xiao Shiji want?

"Didn't hide anything?" Xiao Shiji smiled lightly and asked, "You dare to say that you really don't know anything about what your wife did?" You dare to say it. Didn't you help with the back? ”

Xiao Shiji asked, and walked forward.

Seeing that he was menacing, Xu Shao couldn't help but retreat step by step, until he reached the edge of the bookcase, and then stopped, stretched out an arm, and stopped Xiao Shiji.

"That's it! I see what you mean! - Actually, I was one with her husband and wife, and she did the wrong thing. Naturally, I'll pay it back. Xu Shao said very calmly. Just because she is my original wife, I won't put all the blame on her. Let me tell you plainly, at first, I really didn't know the way. She hid it from me. It was entirely her manpower that was used. My wife was the county lord of the former Great Zhou. There are guards from the clan. But she is not very competent in manpower. Messed up something. It is precisely because she did it that your father has the opportunity to save the life of the former Empress Dowager Ouyang Zi. If it was up to me to lay out ...... from beginning to end," Xu Shao smiled, "The First Empress Dowager Ouyang Zi has no chance to escape at all. Your father has no chance to save her life and accumulate good fortune for you. ”

"Still quibbling?! - It's obvious that you and your husband are complicit in taking the lives of our little people instead of human lives! Xiao Shiji thought of his father being tortured in prison to extract a confession, and the grievances of calling the heavens and the earth ineffective, his eyes instantly turned red.

Xu Shao's eyes darkened, and he said for a long time: "Shiji, you are also a high-ranking person now, don't you understand the truth that those who achieve great things are not informal?" - Let me ask you, have you never sacrificed those innocent passers-by for the benefit of the overall situation for so many years? ”

Xiao Shihe smiled coldly, put his hands behind his back, and said awe-inspiringly: "Lord Xu, please don't change the topic." I don't care what the overall situation you are for, or for the interests of your Xu family, in short, it was your wife who arrested my father in prison in order to achieve her goal, and finally died tragically in prison. If I am still the son of an 'innocent passerby,' I will not have the ability or ability to stand in your study and seek justice from you. But now, I am no longer the son of a passerby, and I am powerful and capable of seeking justice from you. - You give me a reason so I can let you go. ”

Xu Shao also raised his hands, looked at Xiao Shiji, took a deep breath, and said, "I understand, I told you a long time ago, as long as you can get back this evidence, I will definitely give you an explanation." Over the years, although I know that you are Xiao Xiangsheng's son, I have not done anything to you, nor to your family. You know, when I met you, you were still a passerby. If I had wanted to get rid of you then, you would have been out of this world a long time ago. ”

Xiao Shiji chuckled, shook his head and said, "Master Xu, you have never been a person with excessive sympathy, let alone a person with the kindness of a woman, so don't put gold on your face." After a pause, Xiao Shiji continued: "You didn't get rid of me at the beginning, not because you didn't want to, but because you couldn't reach it when you came, and Da Zhou was in danger at that time, and you couldn't take care of yourself. Second, His Majesty had already found our family at that time and protected us. If you had done it then, would you not have sent yourself to His Majesty? It doesn't matter if you offend our family, but at that time, if your majesty knew that your wife was the real mastermind behind the scenes, do you think you still have a chance to stand in the study today and reason with me who is vicious and who is merciful? - Your family has been wiped out a long time ago! ”

Xu Shao's eyebrows jumped. He didn't expect that Xiao Shiji would also think clearly about this layer of cause and effect.

Yes, at that time, according to Xu Shao's consistent temperament, he could not tolerate leaving any flaws.

Since the assassination of Ouyang Zi failed, then everyone related to it should all die. But when he took care of the people around his wife and turned to deal with the remaining few members of the Xiao family, he found that His Majesty Qi Yizhi (who was still the second son of Qi Boshi at that time) had found the family in advance and placed them under his protection, and it was a picture of wanting to repay the favor.

Seeing this, Xu Shao was worried that if he made another attack on the Xiao family, he might startle the snake, but instead made the extremely shrewd second son realize the real mastermind behind the scenes, so that the gain of indexing the line to the Xu family would outweigh the loss. Therefore, he immediately changed his mind and no longer pursued and killed the remaining few members of the Xiao family, but found another way.
