Chapter 6: Father and Mother
In the study room of the main hall of Princess Yiyang's mansion, the father and son stood one by one, relatively silent.
Quan Yi looked at the son in front of him, he was a little in a trance, he hadn't been close to his eldest son for a few years, he was heroic, calm and introverted, and the memory of cowering and cowardly, the appearance of a tiger like a rabbit inside the bad appearance is not on the same number, thinking of the compliment of Li Rong, the prince of Dongguan County, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, "Sit"
Quan Ce sat down, preoccupied, and didn't pay attention to Quan Yi's gaze.
"In the past, my father took the gate valve and entered the Taiji Palace as a guard, at that time, the palace was quiet, and there were not so many branches, and there were still people around me who were arrested from time to time, and the things committed were nothing more than tongue, hands and feet" Quan Yi stroked his beard, and his words were serious, "Walking in the palace, you can perform your duties wholeheartedly, don't say too much"
Quan Ce listened to his words before he reacted, this is a misunderstanding, but with the heart of a godson, he still has to admit his feelings, "Thank you father for mentioning it, the child has something unclear, and his hard thinking is fruitless"
"Tell me," Quan Yi sat up straight, his face serious.
"Who is he who is a servant, who asks?" Quan Ce is serious about asking 800 questions.
"Kuang Fu Sheji, sarcastically admonishing the king, appeasing Li Shu, and preserving the family" Quan Yi seemed to have already had a good idea of this, and he answered quickly and neatly, obviously in his heart.
Quan Ce's breath was stagnant, at such an age, it was really not easy to retain a heart of middle two, so he carefully took a dose of fierce medicine, "What does my father think that King Langya, Dongguan Jungong and others have done?" ”
Quan Yi's eyes suddenly sharpened, he looked out the window, and scolded in a deep voice, "The vertical son is arrogant, the people's hearts are unified, the general trend is the same, ask for your life for the Li artifact, how can you slander it?" ”
"If there are really people who have a unified heart, why do they need to have ghosts in their hearts?" Quan Ce doesn't want to dwell on the big truth anymore, "The child only sees the senseless sacrifice, wielding a knife to kill, and it is shameful to raise the butcher knife, but the one who takes off the scabbard is not a sinner?" ”
Quan Yi was deeply disappointed in his eyes and sighed, "What else do you have to say, do you say it together"
"Father, the child has three questions, don't vomit or be unhappy" Quan Ce got up and left his seat, kneeling on his knees.
"The princes of the court, there are old ministers who have been bereaved, and those who are stubborn and difficult to control Pei Yan?"
"There are noble breeds of generals, who can entangle the outlaw who has lived past Xu Jingye?"
"There are generals who hold the army, and the process of attacking and winning the battle is pragmatic?"
Quan Yi was dumbfounded by Lian Zhucannon's questioning, and his eyebrows and heart were beating non-stop.
"Father, the Queen of Heaven has been in power for more than 20 years, who can compete with it? Why is the samurai rampant, but to cater to the needs of the queen of heaven, instead of going against the tide and destroying the Great Wall, how can it be guided by the situation? He didn't believe that Quan Yi would be pedantic to the point of killing his relatives in righteousness, "The safety of the society is in danger, the sect and the society are small, which is more important?" Just said that when His Majesty was in power, would he dare to seize power and kill his mother? He didn't dare, what could Dongguan Jungong and others do? ”
Quan Yi's cheeks went from reddening to pale to red, and then to redness, his eyes closed, and his chest rose and fell sharply.
After half a pillar of incense, he calmed down, opened his eyes, and gave Quan Ce a one-word evaluation, "stupid"
"Father's anger" Quan Ce hurriedly confessed, holding the teacup and sending it, he said that so much was to protect the family, if Quan Yi was angry instead, he would be embarrassed.
Quan Yi took the tea and took a sip, the anger on his face dissipated, and his tone eased down, "In the opinion of children, the artifact is a big thing, how can you ignore it, you should be a businessman who borrows money, and the words are drawn and charged, and there is a loan and a repayment?" Do you see whose artifact was not obtained by bleeding and drifting? ”
Quan Ce was speechless, he knew the historical trajectory, Empress Wu would eventually return to power Li Tang, but Quan Yi didn't know, those Li people who went forward to fight didn't know, in other words, without their bloodshed and sacrifice, it was not certain whether Empress Wu would return to power Li Tang, in contrast, he only wanted to live, he was ashamed, "What my father said is that children are ignorant"
"No, at your young age, it is already rare and precious to be able to see through many things in the court, my family is an adult" Seeing him bow his head and be taught, Quan Yi's expression became more gentle, and he thought for a moment, "However, since you are blinded by the queen of heaven, for the time being, you don't have to mix with these"
Quan Ce's shame is only for a moment, or he still doesn't change his original intention, Daoyou can die, poor Dao must be saved, let Quan Yi change his position, so he thought of letting him temporarily leave the center of the storm, "Father, at the foot of the Son of Heaven in Chang'an, the land of right and wrong, our house is taboo, and it is difficult to act, it is better to move out and avoid its edge"
Quan Yi smiled bitterly and shook his head, "Since it is taboo, how can you allow me to leave lightly, there are even people in the court who have moved to transfer your uncle back to Beijing."
Quan Ce has a lot of uncles, Ruizong who makes dragon chairs in the palace is his uncle, Quan Yi refers to his uncle, the half-brother of his mother Princess Yiyang, Xu Wang Li Sujie, as the only son of Concubine Xiao Shu, he was in Shuzhou Assassin History, and he was also in dire straits, more uncomfortable than Chang'an's sister Princess Yiyang and sister Princess Gao'an, in addition to because he is a man, but also because his reproductive ability is too strong, less than 40 years old, he has 13 sons.
Born wrong, everything is wrong, Quan Ce shook his head depressedly, and instead concentrated on persuading his father, "Maybe it can't work in other places, but there must be a place"
"You mean......" Quan Yi fell into thought, his eyes looked at the east in distraction, and his knuckles unconsciously tapped on the desk, "Don't be impatient, think long-term"
Quan Ce returned to his unnamed courtyard, the door was very lively, gathered a lot of servants, saw him coming, they squatted down and saluted, and dispersed, the housekeeper Quan Fu was already old, walking tremblingly, rarely showing up, "The old slave congratulates Da Lang, the queen of heaven is rewarded but the top glory, the money and silk have been put into the warehouse, the embarrassment is these servants, how to deal with it, and please show Da Lang"
Quan Ce swept his eyes and stood in a row, looking at his slaves, "Don't worry about it, the big housekeeper arranges to pick a few young, clever and talented people, and send them to the second brother and little sister's courtyard, there is no ...... in my courtyard" The words swirled in his throat, and he went back around, glanced at them casually, and pointed to a delicate-looking girl about ten years old, "Leave her and serve the study"
Regardless of whether these people have a good arrangement or not, the posture must always be one, and one must not be questioned, resentful, and what pickled and dirty water will be poured on the body.
"Yes, Da Lang is well arranged" Quan Fu smiled with a wrinkled face, and continued to chatter, "Look, there are girls and boys around you, and there is no one in charge, the second boy in the old slave's family, Quan Xiang, has no big interest, and is quite honest, since he was a child, he has eaten and used the house, and he should also sell his strength to Da Lang, the old slave is old, and he is working for the master and mother, how powerful he is, thinking of making up a few people from the grange as assistants, the old slave thinks that the child of Quan Tu is good"
Quan Tu, the father of Quan Zhong, was the head of the village in the suburban grange.
"The big housekeeper has a heart, just do what you want, I won't send you to the old man" Quan Ce nodded in agreement, flicked his sleeves and walked into the courtyard quickly, politics, be cautious outside, and have to play with your sleeves at home, so you don't have to hold your breath.
Quan Zhong and the others followed into the door, Qi Shushu looked at him, he didn't open his mouth steadily, the two sides were deadlocked, and in the end, Daisy came forward, and asked softly, "Da Lang, we have so much money in our courtyard, is it also, collect some to the account in the house?" ”
Quan Ce looked at his subordinates one by one, Quan Li's face was excited, his eyes kept rolling, Quan Zhong was not interested, he stretched out his paws and scratched his hairy face, Qi Su was ignorant, with a look of joy on his face, Durian Jin's eyes were always on him, as if he was a little nervous, Sha Zha Fu looked solemn, and clenched the horizontal knife, so much money was in the courtyard, and his duty of guarding was heavier.
Fortunately, no one was greedy, glanced at it, Quan Ce knew it, but Durian Jin was in a hurry, "Da Lang, this is given to you by the Queen of Heaven, if it is given to the house, I am afraid that someone will say it."
Quan Li nodded again and again.
Quan Ce smiled and said, "What Durian Jin said is reasonable, I will leave 20,000 yuan, how to distribute it, do you have a charter?" ”
Everyone looked at Quan Li together, there was a father who was the bookkeeper, and his management skills were quite trusted.
Quan Ce glanced at him, saw that he was overjoyed, rubbed his hands, and shook his head, "These 20,000 guan will be handed over to Quan Zhong, and Quan Li can be a staff officer...... Daisy, bring a list of gifts, along with the gifts from His Highness Taiping last time, and follow me to see my mother."
"Yes, Dalang" Daisy's eyebrows curled.
"My son is filial piety and sensible" Princess Yiyang saw him coming, put down the most beloved little daughter in her arms, took the list, and was extremely satisfied.
Quan Ce held his sister Quan Luo in his arms and casually gossiped about homely things, "Mother, the child heard that Dongdu is a treasure land for business, and there is gold everywhere ......"
