Chapter 499: Soldiers
In the northwest of the capital, in a small courtyard in the family of the Yulin Left Guard, a middle-aged man under the age of 40 is cleaning his yard with a big broom in one hand. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info He has a hard time sweeping the floor with a broom in one hand, not because he doesn't have enough strength, it's just that he can't use force. This makes one wonder why he doesn't hold the broom with both hands. But one need only look at the sleeve of his right arm: the sleeve is clearly empty from the elbow down.
This person's name is Li Yihai, and he was originally a hundred households of Yulin Zuowei. Last year, when he went north to quell the Luxie Rebellion, he was cut off in his left arm and lost his forearm. Later, the army issued a bereavement pension, but after all, he was missing a small arm, and his left leg was also a little inconvenient, so he had to retire from the army. Fortunately, his eldest son is also eighteen years old, and he eats a military salary in the army.
Finally, Li Yihai cleaned up his yard, threw down the broom and sat on the stone bench in the yard. He looked at his left arm and couldn't help but think again: maybe it would have been better if he had died on the battlefield.
His Majesty has always been kind to the soldiers of the Twelve Guards, and all the soldiers who died in battle and their sons who were in the army were all given a hundred households' salaries, although they had no power, they had much more money than ordinary big-headed soldiers, but they were only injured and did not have such treatment.
And now that I have lost my little arm, although I can do a little housework, I can't do other livelihoods at all, and I am basically just a burden to the family. Even the eldest daughter-in-law, although she didn't dare to say it, her expression clearly meant that she was a drag.
Li Yihai was thinking about it, when someone suddenly knocked on the door of his house, and said while knocking: "Lao Li, open the door quickly, I have something to tell you!" ”
Li Yihai heard that this was Cao Guangde, the governor of his own Yulin Left Guard, and said: "Come on, come on" and open the door, while thinking in his heart: 'What will happen?' ’
Li Yihai opened the door of his house, Cao Guangde walked in, walked to the stone table and sat down next to the stone bench, then took out a form, wrote a few words on it, and said to Li Yihai: "Lao Li, sign on it, oh, I forgot that you are illiterate, then draw a cross." ”
Cao Guangde asked him to draw a cross, but he didn't dare not draw it, but he also asked suspiciously: "Governor Cao, what is this for?" ”
Cao Guangde said: "I don't know, but suddenly let me count how many soldiers in our guard were discharged due to injuries, and where they were injured." ”
"What's the matter, Wei Li has to pay a bereavement pension again?" Li Yihai said excitedly. Although he himself thinks that it is impossible for the boss to make money, but apart from this, what reason is there to count the disabled people in the health center?
"I don't think so, but I can't guess why. When Liu asked me to do the statistics, I also asked him, and he said that he didn't know either. And not only does Liu Shi not know, but it seems that even the two Zhenfu adults don't know, it is said that they were ordered down by the top. Cao Guangde said.
"Up, which one?" Li Yihai asked stunned.
Cao Guangde stretched out his hand and pointed to the east, but did not speak.
But his actions frightened Li Yihai: "Yes, yes,......"
"Don't say it, I'm just guessing, I don't dare to pack tickets." Cao Guangde said busily again.
After Cao Guangde said this, he picked up the form, turned around and left the courtyard, and went to the next house.
Li Yihai was still muttering to himself in the courtyard: "This, what are you going to do?" ”
========================================
In the palace, Yun Xi was talking to Zhu Xu, the king of Song, Zhu Yunxi, the king of Yong, Zhu Xianyi, the king of Pu, and Zhu Gaoxu, the king of Su, who were about to be enthroned, and Zhu Di, who was going to Nanyang with him.
After the New Year, after more than two months of preparation, the population allocated to them has already taken the sea route and began to send it to the fiefdom, and the left and right kings have also been selected, and they can also go and seal it.
Yunxi had already instructed him before, and there was not much to do at this time, but he just said to Yongwang Zhu Yunxi: "When you arrive at the fiefdom, first draw a clear border with North Korea in the Tumen River area, and then try to go west, and strive to border with the British vassal state of the Twenty Uncles as soon as possible." ”
Yun Xi nodded.
Later, Yun Xi warned them not to be impatient. "A few uncles and brothers, everyone is still young, there is nothing to worry about, if you finish your life's work now, then what will you do when you are old?" Yoon-hee joked.
After talking to a few of them, Yun Xi asked them to step back and called Yun Xi in again.
Yun Wei is also going to be in Hangzhou. Yun Xi is Yun Xi's eldest brother, Yun Xi can't casually seal a vassal country like everyone else, it must be a good place, but where is there a good place overseas at that time? It's okay in India, but Yun Xi can't reach India now. So after thinking about it, I could only temporarily seal him to Hangzhou.
Unlike other vassal kings who have succeeded to the throne and have come to be sealed, Yun Xi basically will not have any power in his hands, although Wu Wang Sanwei will be established according to the custom, but Yun Xi will really dare to practice Wu Wang Sanwei, Yun Xi will immediately find a reason to call him back to the capital.
Yun Wei himself should also know in his heart, and when he saw Yun Xi, he said: "Your Majesty, Hangzhou originally only had two guards in front and behind Hangzhou, more than 10,000 people, if there are more soldiers, I am afraid that it will add more burden, so the minister will only receive these two guards, and there is no need to add a third guard." There is no need to make up for the difference between the local guard post and the prince's guard station. ”
Yun Xi said: "How can this be done, since it is your guard, of course, you must set up three guards in accordance with the rules of the imperial grandfather." However, since the second brother is sympathetic to the people, he will not increase the number of soldiers. ”
Yun Wei nodded.
Their brothers are quite familiar, and they have been together for eight years, even if they were originally strangers, they should have some feelings. Although there was some hindrance in the middle, since it was not Yun Xi's doing, Yun Xi no longer remembered that incident after so many years.
So after finishing the business, the two brothers sat together and chatted about their childhood.
Yun Wei smiled: "Do you remember when you were only six years old, you once went up to a tree to dig out a bird's nest, but only took out a few bird eggs?" ”
Yun Xi carefully searched for Yun Xi's original memory, and before he could find out about this incident, he heard Yun Xi continue: "What's even funnier is that you were going to hatch a bird at that time, but a few eggs were eaten by your mother's puppy in just half a day. ”
Yun Xi also remembered this incident and smiled. Originally, Yunxi's childhood was also colorful, and it wasn't boring! ’
Later, when it was time for lunch, Yun Xi called Yun Xi and Yun Xi into the palace and had lunch together.
During the meal, Yun Xi looked at Yun Xi and thought to himself, "Actually, you shouldn't be able to do anything, but I can only guard against you." However, it's actually a good thing for you, a good thing for everyone to start and finish. ’
