Chapter 88
In the end, Si Kouqing became the new secretary of the Criminal Department, and in everyone's opinion, Si Kouqing was not a person who would develop in this direction, so everyone was a little shocked after hearing it, but the person concerned calmly stepped forward to accept the emperor's will. In any case, Si Kouqing has become the youngest scholar in all dynasties, and his future is bright.
In the past two days, the Si Kou family has been in the limelight, and he is the regent and the secretary of the criminal department. And he himself is a general. The entire dynasty seems to be in the Si Kou family, Si Kou Zhan is inevitably a little worried, the so-called companion is like a tiger, and it is not a good thing that the Si Kou family is too capable. So Si Kou Zhan went to find the emperor after retiring from the early dynasty, and Lan Qiong looked at the Si Kou family standing in her study and felt a little strange. If it wasn't for the sixth brother to tell him, Si Kouqing's position would be arranged depending on the arrangement, and he would not refuse. But what's going on here, why is the whole family looking for themselves!
Si Kou Zhan saluted the emperor and said: "Your Majesty, Si Kou's family has been valued by the royal family in all dynasties, and now Xiao'er is in the position of secretary of the criminal department, and I am in the position of general. It is really a great grace of the emperor, but the Si Kou family has too many important positions in the court, and the ministers feel that it is inappropriate. Therefore, the minister hoped that the emperor would remove the minister from his post as a general. โ
Lan Qiong and Si Kou brothers were shocked, although their father was old, he did not need to be removed from his official position and leave the court. As far as my father's age is concerned, it is okay to be in the position of a great general for another ten years, and it is completely outrageous to leave so early. Both Si Kou brothers shouted, "Father." He wanted to stop it, but he was stopped by Si Kou Zhan with a look.
Lan Qiong looked at Si Kou Zhan in front of him, he understood why the Si Kou family could be reused by the emperors of previous dynasties, because they knew how to advance and retreat, and they also knew that accompanying the king was like accompanying the tiger. But at this time, Lan Qiong felt that Si Kou Zhan was completely unnecessary, because his reuse of the Si Kou family was due to their excellence, and it had nothing to do with birth. Lan Qiong looked at Si Kouzhan and said in a gentle tone: "General, if you ask me to remove you from your position, then may I ask the general, is there anyone more suitable than you in the court to serve as a general?" Tengxiao Kingdom has not been plagued by war for many years, and when the emperor was alive, all the wars were also fought by you. The recent battle is also Si Kou Yu on the front line, is it possible to withdraw you and promote your eldest son? โ
Si Kou Zhan was choked by the question, too, he thought that the Si Kou family was now in a high position, but the emperor also had the emperor's difficulties. Lan Qiong saw that Si Kou Zhan stopped talking, so the corners of her mouth curled up and said: "General Si Kou, you should be happy to have these excellent sons and daughters, and among the dignitaries and nobles in the capital, your children are the best." Si Kou Zhan had no choice but to say yes again and again.
Lan Qiong finally breathed a sigh of relief, but Si Kouyu said again: "The minister asks for a decree to go to the border to guard for two years!" Lan Qiong felt that she was a big head at this time, and for the first time, she felt that the people of the Si Kou family were difficult. Si Kouzhan heard his eldest son say this, although he felt distressed, but this was indeed a better way than what he had just said.
But Lan Qiong was fried, and jumped up directly and said, "You just have to do this?" Si Kouyu's face was firm. Forget it, Lan Qiong felt that he couldn't compete with them, and then he agreed. The next day, the holy decree came down, and Si Kouyu was sent to the border at once. Although it sounds like the current situation is a bit miserable, after two years of coming back, Si Kouyu will be completely different.
Si Kouyu guarded the border, Shu Qian and his brothers and sisters in the family were reluctant, but this is a necessary experience, as the eldest brother of a military general, he always has to go to the border to experience and experience, and his father also guarded the border for two years.
The climatic conditions on the border are not good, and there is no way to compare it with the life in the capital, and it is completely different from the military camp life that Si Kouyu usually experienced. Si Kou Zhan looked at his eldest son, who was already ready to go, and just patted him on the shoulder and said, "The border is very different from your previous life, just endure it." As a Father, I believe you will do better than I did! The eldest son is the best affirmation of the eldest son if the father can say such a thing, and the three brothers hugged him, Si Kouqing smiled and said, "Big brother, I am at home!" Si Kouyu nodded, he had actually always felt that this second brother was more stable and reassuring than himself.
Si Kouxi was a little sad to see the scene of the family parting, but she knew that the parting was just for a better reunion. Si Kouyu also looked at his sister, she was the only one of the four children in the family who had already started a family, although she was only a girl, but their brothers always felt that Xi'er was the most capable, and this was indeed the case.
Si Kouxi stepped forward and hugged his eldest brother and said, "The border environment of the eldest brother is not good, but it is a place where you can train people. Si Kouyu listened to her sister's tone and thought how she could talk to her father in the same tone. And you must come back when I give birth, I hope that the people closest to him can be there. Si Kouyu was naturally looking forward to the birth of his little nephew, so he readily agreed.
After everyone said goodbye, Si Kouzhan turned on his horse and went to the border land in the face of the rising sun. Lan Jing was afraid that Si Kouxi would be upset, so she gently touched her shoulder, and Si Kouxi smiled and said, "Parting is for a better meeting, isn't it?" Lan Jing has always felt that Si Kouxi thinks about the bad things in her life very openly, and she always faces everything difficult in life with a smile.
Si Kouqing looked at Xiao Chen beside him and said softly, "Why don't you say a few words to your eldest brother?" Si Kouchen pondered for a moment, looked at Si Kouqing's eyes and said, "Second brother, I heard all the words you said to my sister that day. I know what Big Brother went to the border this time for. "Si Kouqing didn't expect his brother to hear what he said to Xi'er." I will also work hard for the Si Ko family in the future! Si Kouchen's eyes were shining, and his face was full of confidence. Si Kouqing didn't say much, just nodded.
With these four children in Si Ko's family, there will never be a day when they will fall.
Many people in the Carnival Dynasty are still worried about Si Kouxi becoming the regent, and the rumors among the people are becoming more and more outrageous. Jin Shen felt a headache when he heard these rumors, and he didn't want anyone to say that about his sister. He immediately discussed with Tu Hua, wanting to correct his sister's name, and also wanted his mother's identity to be revealed to the world. Then the mother can return to Hefu openly and stay in her own home with peace of mind.
So, early this morning, the people saw the emperor list posted everywhere. It reads:
Queen He Shu was originally the second lady of the He family in Tengxiao Guohe Mansion, and because she fought for Mu Xi, she went incognito. On the contrary, I was betrayed by Mu Xi, I hope that my mother can return to her hometown, so I will reveal my mother's identity to the world, and I will return to Tengxiao Guohe Mansion with my mother's tablet on the same day. Si Kouxi has been with her mother all the year round, and I have regarded her as my eldest sister since I was a child. In the past, when the Muxi regime was overthrown, there were 20,000 soldiers and horses in my army, which were developed from the remaining 10,000 fire troops entrusted by my mother by my eldest sister, so I named the eldest sister the regent. The eldest sister's contribution to the society of the Carnival Dynasty is worthy of this title, and I hope that there will be no one who can spread the rumor.
As soon as this news came out, Tengxiao Guohe Mansion appeared in the eyes of the world again, and after careful investigation, everyone found that the emperors of Tengxiao Kingdom and Jianian Dynasty were actually cousins, and the He family actually produced two queens in one generation, and they were both praised women. And Si Kouxi became a more praised woman after the two of them. Si Kouxi sat in the palace, listening to some things that Yan Shu told him, and felt that it was really funny, he had the skills of the two sisters of the He family.
However, I would like to say that I will bring He Shu's tablet back openly and honestly one day, so I have to talk to the He family so that I can be prepared. Lan Qiong's enthronement ceremony is approaching, and Lan Jing is not really a hands-off shopkeeper, so she will still go to the palace to see the situation. But he will always run back very early, and he is called "Accompanying Si Kou Xi".
Si Kouxi thought that she still didn't need someone to accompany her, she knew that Lan Qiong was already embarrassed to take this position, and it would be really unreasonable for Lan Jing to be a hands-off shopkeeper again. So she always took Lan Jing to the palace to see Lan Qiong, and even pressed others to deal with government affairs. Those ministers and Lan Qiong couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when they saw Lan Jing coming back, and then looked at Si Kouxi, who pressed Lan Jing every time. Suddenly, Si Kouxi's image in everyone's hearts became taller, and coupled with the explanation of the Carnival Dynasty, these ministers admired Si Kouxi even more. Si Kouxi was embarrassed by their respectful appearance every time.
As the head of the national temple, Sibei was of course going to attend the enthronement ceremony, so he came to the capital a few days early. First of all, he came to the Six Princes' Mansion, and the subordinates of the Six Princes' Mansion saw two monks who were not good-looking and asked to see the princess, and he didn't dare to despise others, so he only said that he would wait a minute, and he would go in to report.
As soon as Si Kouxi heard that the monks were older and one small, he remembered Sibei and Siren, and immediately sent someone to welcome him in. Si Kouxi made good tea in the study to entertain the two, she glanced at Siren, how to say, maybe someone was born to make the material of the family, Siren's appearance is very similar to a monk who has attained the Tao, and the temperament of Sibei is very similar.
Sibei took a sip of water and said, "The princess is pregnant, so you still have to pay more attention to your diet, and drink less tea like this." Si Kouxi was stunned, he didn't say anything, this master knew? Thinking of the child-seeking charm given by the master before, she wondered if this Sibei really had the ability to reach the sky.
She smiled and said, "Thanks to the merit given by Master Shi a few months ago. Sibei and Siren were shocked directly when they heard it, and Siren, who was sitting on the side, asked suspiciously: "Asking for a child?" Si Kouxi nodded, pondered for a while, and said, "I didn't give the child charm, and I asked the princess to show me the bag that my junior brother gave you at that time." โ
Si Kouxi had already frowned when he heard that Master Sibei had not asked for a child talisman for him at all. Yan Shu heard something wrong on the side, and she had already run to get the bag, and she didn't need Si Kouxi's orders at all. During this waiting time, the air in the study was terrifyingly condensed, and only the smoke from the teapot swirled in the air.
Sibei looked at the bag, there was no problem with the bag, he immediately opened it, and saw that there was nothing wrong with the peace charm that Lan Jing asked for, but this child charm was not written by himself at all. What he gave was a peace charm written for Si Kouxi. Sibei handed the child-seeking talisman in his hand to Siren, and said with some embarrassment: "At the beginning, I gave two peace talismans, one for you and one for Lan Jing. I didn't write about this child seeker at all. โ
Si Kouxi was a little incredulous, looked at Sibei and said, "Then who wrote this child-seeking talisman?" What exactly does it do? Sibei saw that Si Kouxi seemed to be worried, and slowly explained: "There is no problem with this child-seeking charm just for the sake of children. Yan Shu and Yan Jia both breathed a sigh of relief when they heard this, as long as it was harmless to the human body. But Si Kouxi was more concerned about who wrote it, and Si Bei shook his head and said he didn't know.
Sibei and Siren chatted with Si Kouxi for a while and left, and by the way, they also took the child-seeking talisman with them. When Si Kouxi sent them away, he didn't say anything, but the child-seeking talisman left Si Kouxi with deep doubts. But Si Kouxi didn't believe in these in the first place, and the foreign master had already taken away this child-seeking talisman, and she believed that the master would be able to handle these properly.
Siren held this child-seeking talisman tightly in his hand and said, "Sibei, this is written by that person, no one is so familiar with these. Si sighed and said, "That person just can't let go, doesn't she understand that what she asks for is fundamentally impossible?" Siren smiled sarcastically and said, "If she understands this, then these things will not happen." The two of them walked in the direction of Si Ko's Mansion.
Shu Qian looked at the two monks in front of him and said to Siren, "Who is this?" Siren looked at Shu Qian, clasped his hands together and said with a smile: "Siren." Shu Qian immediately replied excitedly: "It turned out to be Master Siren, hurry up and come in and sit." โ
If Si Kouxi was here at this time, he would definitely feel that his mother was crazy, how could he call a little hairy boy a master?
Shu Qian's face was obviously still immersed in the joy of seeing Siren, and he was busy pouring tea and asking about Siren's current situation. Siren didn't answer, just handed the child-seeking talisman to Shu Qian, Shu Qian took it suspiciously, looked at it carefully, she frowned, and said hesitantly: "Master Sibei, this is not what you wrote." Sibei nodded, Shu Qian couldn't wait to tear up the child-seeking talisman in his hand, and said angrily: "Why hasn't she given up!" I was originally happy that Xi'er had a child, and I was getting more and more peaceful, but I didn't expect that she was actually the ghost. โ
Siren also showed his helplessness and said: "It's a good thing that Xi'er has a child, but as soon as I see this child-seeking charm, you and I will understand that she has never given up." Shu Qian calmed the anger in his heart, looked at the two in front of him, recalled the past, and said with some sadness: "But, she hasn't appeared for a long time, hasn't she?" Sibei said in a low voice, "That's because she didn't get what she wanted." โ
Shu Qian sneered and said, "Is she sure that by today, she will be able to get what she wants?" Siren pondered for a moment and said, "Perhaps, from the beginning to the present, everything has been happening according to what is recorded in that book, isn't it?" After speaking, he glanced at Si Bei, obviously this sentence was not said to Shu Qian.
Shu Qian was a little puzzled, everyone was always talking about that book, what was that book? She said in a pleading voice, "Master, I am the only one left, please tell me what is recorded in that book?" Sibei stroked his beard and glanced at Siren, and after the two confirmed each other, Sibei said, "I can only say something." The charm and spirit have been fulfilled, and the gold, wood, water, fire, and earth have also been fulfilled, and now only the phoenix and the phoenix, as well as the male and female prodigies, are left. โ
Siren stared at Shu Qian and said, "Actually, you know something, but you don't want to admit it." If all things are fulfilled, there will be something strange in the person corresponding to it, according to the book, and there will be something strange in the candle. Shu Qian slowly lowered his shoulders, lowered his eyes and said, "I know something, He Yi and He Shu have been worried that such a thing will happen, but ยทยทยทยทยทยท But He Yi and He Shu have passed away, and those things will also come true? โ
Shu Qian hoped that the two masters in front of him could give him an answer, or a recognition, but both of them shook their heads, and their faces were solemn, "No one knows about this, this is something recorded in the forbidden book, no one touches it, so no one knows the consequences of this thing." That's all Sibei can say.
Shu Qian knew that he couldn't get an answer, if he could get an answer, why did everyone come to this point.
