Chapter 9 Accumulation of grain and slow reign
After listening to Guo Jia's words, Mu Yi's face became gloomy, and he squeezed out a sentence from between his teeth: "A group of eunuchs, the master just wants to live in peace, and you are here to provoke me." That's it, the master doesn't mind also plugging in, mother~, the master doesn't want to put his life in the hands of others. ”
At this moment, Mu Yi knew that he was wrong. If you want to survive in troubled times, you must have the strength to make others jealous, otherwise you will always be a man-made sword, and I will be a fish!
At the same time, I have a strong admiration for Guo Jia in my heart, and I can see the crisis with just a token, as well as the inside story behind it, it seems that I still underestimate the wisdom of the ancients. Fourteen-year-old Guo Jia is already like this, how terrifying should he be when he grows up?
Thinking of this, Mu Yi smiled, and the smile was so infiltrating.
Three days passed in a blink of an eye, and Guo Jia was able to get out of bed and walk, so he moved into the new house with Mu Yi.
Queen He is really generous, the house of Mu Yi covers an area of 30 acres, one into the three courtyards, hundreds of rooms, pavilions, rockery gardens everything.
Due to the hasty sale of the house, all the furniture was missing.
At the gate of the Mu Mansion, Zhou Cang Pei Yuanshao stood outside the door with twenty or thirty people to greet Mu Yi.
"Welcome back to the ...... home"
Twenty or thirty people bowed in unison to welcome Mu Yi.
For his own house, Mu Yi is very satisfied, bluestone steps, two red lacquer gates, nearly two zhang high courtyard walls, two stone lions at the door with teeth and claws are lifelike.
Mu Yi was happy for a while, and shook his sleeves and said, "Hahaha...... Happy today, reward, each person will be rewarded with 100 dollars. Also, don't call me Master in the future, just call Ah Lang!"
When everyone heard that they were rewarded with a hundred dollars, they were grateful for their thousands of thanks.
Walking into the mansion, Mu Yi had already forgotten about the eunuch's actions against him, and was immersed in the joy of owning a mansion in the capital.
"Such a big house, if it is placed in the future generations, I'm afraid it will be worth a lot of money, right?" Mu Yi thought secretly in his heart.
Calling everyone together, Mu Yi asked, "Are there any literate people?"
Mu Yi's idea is very simple, that is, to find a literate person to teach himself, and it would be a bit embarrassing to save himself what kind of oolong. Mu Yi didn't know the ancient Chinese characters, and occasionally there were only one or two.
For example, the gold medal, Mu Yi only cares about being made of gold, but he doesn't know the words on it. If Guo Jia hadn't reminded him by his side, I'm afraid he would still be in the dark now.
The people present looked at each other for a moment, and an eighteen or nineteen-year-old maid walked out and gave a salute and said, "If you go back to Ah Lang, the slave and maid are literate."
Mu Yi asked curiously, "Oh? Tell me, what words do you know? ”
The maid hesitated slightly, and seemed to be a little afraid: "Slave maid...... The slave and maid father served as the county commander, and was later framed and imprisoned by the adulterer, and the family members were also assigned to be slaves. ”
Mu Yi's face changed suddenly, and he said in a deep voice: "A certain one asks if he is literate, what do you mean by saying so much?"
The maid hurriedly knelt on the ground in fright, kowtowed vigorously and said: "The slave and maid know that they are wrong, the slave and maid are just worried about the safety of their family, I hope Ah Lang will spare the slave and maid......
Mu Yi waved his hand, motioned for the others to disperse, and said to the maid kneeling on the ground: "If it is so-and-so, I will not miss any opportunity to save my family, get up!" For example, I don't like others to play tricks in front of someone. ”
"Xie Alang Kaig......" The maid hurriedly kowtowed and thanked her.
After going around his house, Mu Yi learned from the maid that the maid's name was Miao Xiaodie, and her father's name was Miao Qi, which was a county order. Because he was old-fashioned and did not know how to be flexible, he was not used to seeing the local squires and wealthy families exploiting the people during his tenure, and repeatedly rectified the local squires. As a result, they were united to buy off Shangguan, and they were given the notoriety of a big corrupt official and escorted to Beijing.
Just in time for the Yellow Turban Rebellion, Emperor Han Ling was already in a bad mood, and after knowing this, he gave an order, Miao Qi was raided and his family was sent into slavery.
Knowing these situations, Mu Yi did not say whether he wanted to help or not.
Then again, with his status as a pawn, even if he wants to, he can't do anything. Don't look at the fact that he is now nominally a member of the palace guard, but in fact he is still a small soldier.
At noon, Mu Yi and Guo Jia had lunch together. During the banquet, Guo Jia asked, "What does Brother Mu think of the Yellow Turban Rebellion?"
Mu Yi just smiled faintly: "The turmoil launched by Zhang Jiao this time seems to be ferocious, but in fact he made a big mistake. Zhang Jiao's choice of time was wrong, not to mention that although there were many Yellow Turban thieves under his command, they were just some peasants who picked up weapons, and at best they were just a rabble. With such a large number of people and insufficient supplies of food and grass, they can only choose to rob them, so that no matter what their purpose is, people will treat them as a group of robbers. Therefore, a certain dare concluded that it would not be long before the imperial court would quell this rebellion. And Zhang Jiao is just a stepping stone for the world's heroes to become famous!"
Speaking of this, Mu Yi paused: "But this uprising, although it can't be successful, it has opened the curtain of troubled times. After this rebellion, countless princes will be born, and in a few years, the world will enter an era of endless wars and fierce hegemony. ”
After listening to Mu Yi's views on the current situation, Guo Jia couldn't help but look at Mu Yi again.
After a while, Guo Jia asked, "Is Brother Mu willing to be an unknown Praetorian Guard?" This Yellow Turban Rebellion is a great opportunity, why don't Brother Mu take this opportunity to make a name for himself? ”
Mu Yi laughed at himself, shook his head helplessly, and said, "In the past, I just wanted to marry a few more daughters-in-law and live a stable life. But now I understand that if you want your destiny not to be in the hands of others, you must have enough rights. As the saying goes: a big husband can't be without power for a day, and a little husband can't be without money for a day! I won't miss this opportunity. I wonder if Feng Xiao has any better suggestions on this matter? ”
Guo Jia stood up, walked to the door like a thief, and after looking around to make sure that there was no one, he came to Mu Yi: "Accumulate grain, slow down the king!"
"Poof!"
Hearing this, Mu Yi squirted out a sip of the wine he had just drunk into his mouth, and looked at Guo Jia with shock in his eyes: "Feng...... Fengxiao, could it be that you are also a traverser? ”
The reason why Mu Yi is so out of shape is because this line is too familiar!
Guo Jia was confused, and asked suspiciously, "What is a traverser?"
Seeing that the other party was not a traverser, Mu Yi did not explain more.
However, Mu Yi was completely convinced by Guo Jiache, and there was really no fuel-efficient lamp in history. They rely on knowing the trend of history, but they can see so far with their heads, this IQ is not ordinarily high!
Mu Yi did not answer Guo Jia directly, but fell into a short silence.
After a long time, Mu Yi stood up and rubbed his kneeling sore legs: "It's really uncomfortable to sit on your knees, you must find a few craftsmen to build some furniture when you go back, and at least you have to get a few Taishi chairs."
Walking to Guo Jia's side, Mu Yi didn't answer this topic from beginning to end, but stretched out his hand and put it on Guo Jia's shoulder and said with a smile: "Fengxiao, how about a certain and you are like each other at first sight, how about not being brothers of the opposite sex?"
Guo Jia was so smart that he immediately understood what Mu Yi was thinking, and agreed immediately. For these people, there are some things that don't need to be said so clearly, everyone just knows it. If you speak out and be heard by others, I am afraid that it will lead to catastrophe.
There is a bamboo forest in the garden in the backyard, and the two put incense cases next to the bamboo forest, killing cows and sheep as sacrifices, and cutting off the heads of chickens to drink blood wine.
"The emperor is above, a certain Mu Yi, seventeen years old, today and Guo Jia are brothers, from now on there will be blessings and blessings, and there will be disasters for a certain time, and if you violate this oath, people and gods are indignant......"
"A certain Guo Jia, the word Fengxiao, fourteen years old, today and Mu Yi are brothers of the opposite sex, from now on, the knife mountain together, the sea of fire together, if this oath is violated, ten thousand arrows pierce the heart......"
The two worshiped the sky and drank the blood wine, Guo Jia fell to the ground in front of Mu Yibai: "Big brother......"
"Second Brother ......"
Immediately, Mu Yi turned to Zhou Cang and Pei Yuanshao, who were standing aside, and said: "Pass the word, from now on, Feng Xiao will be the second master of the house, and no one shall violate everything he does!"
"Whoa!"
Guo Jia inexplicably felt a trace of emotion in his heart, not to mention the things in front of him, that is, in the oath, Mu Yi's sentence: Happiness is shared, and disaster is a certain time, which can be seen Mu Yi's open mind.
The two walked arm in hand, and after coming to the hall again, Guo Jia said what he thought in his heart.
"Big brother, the younger brother is willing to run around in the name of study tours and make friends with heroes from all over the world, so that they can be used by the eldest brother in the future."
Mu Yi thought for a moment and said: "This method is feasible, but the second brother's body has not fully recovered, and it is not too late to leave after a few days of recovery."
……
Time flies like a white horse, and in the blink of an eye, ten days have passed.
During these ten days, Mu Yi only went to the palace to be on duty for three days. Every time I just stood guard and patrolled, nothing happened.
The rest of the time, Mu Yi practiced martial arts in his own home, and the rest of the time Miao Xiaodie taught him to read.
In these ten days, Guo Jia's body gradually recovered. So he quit his job and embarked on his study tour.
Before leaving, Mu Yi asked Zhou Cang and Pei Yuanshao to protect Guo Jia as his entourage.
Mu Yi stuffed a burden into Guo Jia's hand and said: "The poor family is rich, it is more convenient to bring more wealth on the road." If you encounter difficulties, come back first, and be sure to pay more attention to your body when you go out, and remember...... Remember!"
Guo Jia's eyes flashed with tears, and his nose was a little sour and said: "When the eldest brother is using the money, he still keeps it in the capital to make some ......."
Mu Yi waved his hand and interrupted him: "How can you bear to let the second brother suffer on the road, and the daughter will come back after she is gone!" There are many ways to make money, but are you afraid that the capital of Nuoda will not be able to make money? A month or two ago, he was a poor man and his only property was a cow, but now? The next time the second brother comes back, he will definitely save a huge family business!"
Guo Jia nodded: "Big brother, take care!"
"It's a long way to go to the rivers and lakes, and the second brother cherishes it all the way!"
Mu Yi kept sending Guo Jia out of Shili, and the two waved separately in Shili Pavilion.
On the way back, Miao Xiaodie wiped her sweat and said to herself, "Why is there no ice in summer?" If only there was ice!"
"Ask for collection, ask for recommendation! The signing review passed, I was a little excited, thank you for your support, I will work hard to update more in the future, if you are happy, vote for it! 》
