Chapter 367: Two Letters
After the Mu family nodded, Li Xinxin relaxed a lot, no matter what, as long as he had the help of the Mu family, Li Xin would be able to occupy the initiative in southern Xinjiang, and in the future, when the imperial court and southern Xinjiang completely turned face, the inconspicuous Mu family could play a role.
After returning to Qijiazi, Li Xin wrote two letters in the study, one was naturally written to the Taikang Emperor, in which Li Xin cheekily plagiarized some of the contents of the statement.
"There are few ministers and many diseases, nine years old is not good, Lingding is lonely, as for the establishment, there is no uncle, and the brothers are ......."
"There are no ancestors, there is no way to this day, there are no ministers to the ancestors, and there is no way to settle the Yellow Spring. Your Majesty's days are long, and your days are short......"
In short, this recital is touching and tear-jerking, as long as it is a person, it is impossible to urge Li Xin to go back after reading this.
The other letter was addressed to the Ninth Princess.
Calculate the time, Li Xin has been away from the capital for several months, and during this time, the ninth princess also wrote a few letters to Li Xin, asking him when he would go back, and this time he wanted to send a letter back anyway, so he simply wrote one to this girl.
After writing, it was already very late outside, and he could only send it out tomorrow, Li Xin washed up briefly, and was ready to go to bed to rest.
Then, Shen Gang came back.
He half-knelt in front of Li Xin and said in a low voice: "Master Hou, the lowly officials followed that young man all the way, and there were only four or five of them all the way, and they went to the southwest. ”
Li Xin nodded and said, "Let people continue to follow them, and after arriving in Shu County, see if there are any people from the Pingnan Army who come to meet him." ”
That young man, Li Shuo, is a little mysterious, and Li Xin still hasn't figured out his intentions.
Can't this guy come over with all the hard work, just to recognize his brother with a blank eye?
But this Li Shuo is lucky, because Li Chun is dead.
Li Chun is not dead, he may only be Li Yan's son in this life, and it is unlikely that he will return to Li Shen's lineage, but after Li Chun died, Li Shen no longer has a son in name, and this Li Shuo is very likely to "turn positive" and inherit the Pingnan Army in the future.
Although it makes no difference whether it turns into a positive or not, people in this era pay the most attention to their reputation, and if Li Shuo wants to inherit the Pingnan Army, he must return to the name of the main line.
Thinking of this, Li Xin showed a smile on his face and muttered to himself: "Li Shen is not only unable to move in the capital now, but he may die at any time in the hands of the new emperor, if Li Shen dies in the capital, then it is very likely that this cheap brother will be the enemy of me in the future......"
Li Xin's voice was very small, and Shen Gang, who was standing beside him, didn't hear what he was saying clearly.
"Shen Gang."
The big man Shen Gang hurriedly lowered his head and clenched his fists: "Humble duty!" ”
Li Xin handed the two letters in his hand and said: "These two letters, one is a recital for His Majesty, and the other is sent to Princess Qinghe's mansion, they are both very important things, you set off early tomorrow morning, and hurry back to the capital to deliver the letter." ”
Shen Gang took the two letters with both hands, bowed his head and said, "Master Hou, ...... that young man?"
"Don't worry about it, I'll let Mu Ying take over."
Li Xin patted him on the shoulder and said in a deep voice: "These two letters have a great relationship, don't lose them, send them to the capital as soon as possible." ”
Shen Gang was the ** who had an awkward quarrel with Li Xin when Li Xin first entered Yulinwei, but later he was convinced by Li Xin's sincerity, and gradually listened to it under Li Xin's hands, he was originally just an ordinary Yulinlang, and now after several military exploits of Xiao Chenji and Gong Change, he also transformed himself and became a captain of Yulinwei, so he respected Li Xin even more, almost to the point of worship.
"Master Hou, set off overnight!"
Li Xin shook his head and said: "It's not necessary, just send it as soon as possible, if it's not important, I won't let you go." ”
"After you arrive in the capital, Your Majesty will most likely ask you about things here, don't shy away from it, say what you should say."
Shen Gang hesitated for a moment, lowered his head and said, "That Mu family master...... And the things about young people, do you say the same? ”
Li Xin smiled indifferently.
"Your Majesty will tell you if you ask."
Li Xin's contact with the Mu family is something that Taikang Tianzi has known for a long time, and Li Xin's meeting with Mu Qing this time is nominally for the new emperor to do things, and he is worried that he doesn't know.
As for Li Shuo's matter, Shen Gang and the others didn't know who Li Shuo was, only Li Xin knew his specific identity.
Shen Gang took a deep breath and bowed his head to Li Xin and clenched his fists: "Master Hou commanded, all the humble positions have been written down." ”
Li Xin patted him on the shoulder, and his tone was calm.
"Don't be nervous when you arrive in the capital, say whatever you need to say, I'm doing this for Your Majesty, there's nothing unseemly."
"Humble duty understands."
"Okay, you go down, you don't have to leave tonight, just go out early tomorrow morning."
"Yes."
Shen Gang bowed and retreated.
The next morning, before dawn, a fast horse galloped out of Qiyang County.
…………………………
In the next few days, Dong Gonggong was invited by various figures in Yongzhou to eat and drink every day, and spent all day drinking.
No, the upright father-in-law Dong doesn't drink flower wine.
In short, in just three or four days, this Dong eunuch has gained weight, he was originally a very cautious person, he was cautious in behaving and doing things in the capital, and the reason why he was so indulgent in such a small place was probably to vent his anger in the capital.
But no matter what, he still has a very bottom line, he has come to Qiyang County for many days, no matter how late he drinks, he will return to Qiyuan to live, and will not spend the night outside.
This is his vigilance, it is okay to go out to eat and drink, but it is too unsafe to live with others.
On the fourth day, Gonggong Dong, who had gained a lot of weight, came over to find Li Xin, and smiled at Li Xin: "Master Hou, I have been in Qiyang County for a few days, and I haven't been to see Mrs. Tai's grave. ”
Li Xin smiled at the black-faced eunuch.
"Don't worry, my mother's grave will take at least a month or two, if you can't be in a hurry, Gonggong Dong should eat in Qiyang County, no one will say anything about you."
Dong Cheng shook his head and sighed: "I have indulged a little in the past few days, but it is also because I have some resentment in my heart, and now it is better." Anyway, Master Hou regards our family as a friend, and our family should also go to Mrs. Tai's grave to have a look, otherwise it will be bad to lose the rules. ”
Li Xin had no choice, so he took this eunuch to Qishan.
In the mountains of Qishan, the basic tomb road has been dug out, and then as long as the coffin is placed according to the rules, the sacrifices are arranged, and then the soil is filled, it can be done, and several masters who are proficient in tombs walk back and forth in the tomb, and from time to time they have to measure the length, right.
The specifications of this tomb may be inconspicuous in the capital, but in a small place like Qiyang County, it can be said that there is no one before, when those old gentry in Qiyang County came to check, looking at this tomb, many old men had red eyes, and they couldn't wait to sleep in it immediately.
Li Xin took Dong Gonggong around, and Dong Gonggong couldn't help but be surprised when he saw that these workers could still receive wages.
"Master Hou, you treat them too well."
Jing'an Hou spoke earnestly.
"It is only natural that work is paid."
