The Young Master of the Xia Family Chapter 12: The Sycophants of the High Realm
The old eunuch lowered his head and nodded with a smile, this kind of thing must not be said. The emperor is actually a reward and a secret calculation. On the surface, this is a reward for Xia Xinghan, but in fact, it is to pull hatred for Xia Xinghan! At this time, Xia Xinghan's aunt Xia Guifei, who was in the palace, was full of worry after hearing the news, and said: "Sister-in-law, when did this child become like this?"
Qin Miaoyu sighed and said: "This matter, don't blame Xing Han, not long ago Xing Han was assassinated, I checked the ship, there was indeed someone who laid the fire in advance, and we found traces of bows and arrows, Xing Han was also transferred to the Hanjiang River because of this incident." The first thing he did after the catastrophe was to pretend to be sick to make people think he was useless, and I guess the kid thought his uncle was going to kill him. Your Majesty won't, he will find a way to contain him at most, if he is a capable person, it can be regarded as His Majesty can continue to guard the country for him in the future, which will do him more benefits than disadvantages. The person who harmed him, I suspect it is someone from the Zuo family. ”
"Zuo Ji, this is possible, he is currently very close to the Peerless Queen. The matter of Xing Han falling into the cold river, if you want to talk about the benefits, it really has a huge benefit to their Zuo family. Xia Guifei looked out the window with a serious expression when she said this, and the eldest princess whispered: "But I didn't expect Han'er to lie to us for so long, he should have seen it in the palace all these years, so he felt that it was better to be a gentleman, but who would have thought that he wouldn't let us do it, so he decided not to do it." He must inherit his father's family business and inherit the Long Xiang Army. ”
Xia Guifei nodded with satisfaction and said: "Sure enough, the door is a tiger, but what do you say, Xinghan is really scary, and the king of Anxi dares to fight?
"Trouble, concubine, just watch, before I go home, this holy decree will arrive, and Your Majesty will not let go of this opportunity to make us hate us!" The eldest princess sighed, she really knew her brother too well. Xia Guifei hurriedly said: "Then I won't keep you, sister-in-law, you should go back to receive the holy decree!"
"What kind of holy decree will I take, let Xinghan take it himself, this is a reward for him, at this time, I won't come forward. I want to see what the king of Anthy can do, so I will let my son clean him up. In fact, I also want to see how many skills Xing Han still has hidden. In the past, I never thought that Xinghan could be like this, and now I have to believe it. This kid is really going to grow up. ”
"By the way, sister-in-law, King Anxi shouldn't be looking for you to deal with Xinghan secretly, right?"
The eldest princess sneered: "Isn't this what Your Majesty wants to see the most? But it's okay, if someone dares to be unfavorable to Xinghan, I dare to make trouble in the capital, anyway, just follow his thoughts." If you don't know, Your Majesty will have to come over in a while, meet us, and then tell me to take care of Xinghan and not let the gangsters seize the opportunity. After all, at this time, it is the best opportunity to start, because you can put it on King Anxi's head. ”
Basically, before the eldest princess's words fell, the eunuch outside shouted loudly: "The emperor has arrived!!"
The palace was tossing, and there was a group of people in front of the gate of the Xia Mansion, and the eunuch shouted happily with the holy decree: "Young Master Xinghan, haha, congratulations!"
Xia Xinghan and Pang Xiu looked at the old eunuch with a confused expression, and Xinghan said in surprise: "Gonggong Liu, what's the matter?
Gonggong Liu said with a smile: "Oh! Young Master Xinghan, this is a great thing. Come, kneel down and take the order!"
Xia Xinghan sighed, and then knelt on the ground, Gonggong Liu opened the holy decree and said with a smile: "The emperor has a decree, Xia Xinghan, the son of Xia Dongting, has made meritorious contributions to maintaining the royal prestige, and specially gave Xia Dongting, the father and son of the Xia family, Xia Dongting to be promoted from the Marquis of Dongting to the Duke of Dongting, and his son Xia Xinghan was crowned a second-class viscount." Enjoy the good fortune and give a piece of gold silk soft armor!
"Thank you, Your Majesty!!" Xia Xinghan raised his hands to receive the holy decree, and Gonggong Liu said excitedly: "Hurry up, Little Lord Xia." ”
Xia Xinghan smiled after getting up: "Thank you Father-in-law Liu! Xia Fu!
"Oh, this can't be helped, how can I let you break the bank!" said Gonggong Liu with a smile.
Xia Xinghan hurriedly said: "That's not good, this is a happy event that doesn't make people run in vain." ”
"Hehehe, they all say that the eldest prince is in charge of teaching, and I really didn't see it in the past, but today I opened my eyes. Then the old slave will thank the little lord first. Oh, by the way, the little lord, the general's is conveyed by military order, so you don't have to worry. Father-in-law Liu kindly reminded him, and Xia Xinghan said with a smile: "Hey, Father-in-law Liu, I have something I want to give advice to Your Majesty." ”
"Oh, what do you want the old slave to say?"
Xia Xinghan said with a smile: "My uncle is also Your Majesty, so wise and powerful, what you said in this holy decree is a bit too casual, and it can't reflect the majesty of the emperor!"
Gonggong Liu asked curiously, "That...... How can I change it?"
"Father-in-law, this is a good thing to please my uncle, I told you, don't talk nonsense. It's good that the two of us know about it. And you have to remember me, if you have the opportunity to say good things about me in the future, my little waste is now a star power, but I also think about him all the time, asking me now is actually very much like being a gentleman, and the family is strictly controlled. Let my uncle help me carry it around, or I will have to let my mother beat me to death. ”
Gonggong Liu smiled and said, "Hehe, it's easy. ”
Xia Xinghan said with a smile: "Gonggong Liu, the holy decree said at the beginning, the emperor has a decree, and he can't show my uncle's wisdom and martial arts, the holy decree should be said at the beginning! ”
"What does this mean? The old slave hasn't studied for a few years!" said Gonggong Liu in a low voice.
Xia Xinghan said in a low voice: "Fengtian carrier, that is to say, His Majesty's will is obedient to the will of heaven, that is, the will of the star god above the nine heavens, which is the meaning conveyed by my uncle." Got it?"
"Oh!!, that is, it was the will of God for His Majesty to ascend the throne?" asked Gonggong Liu curiously.
Xia Xinghan nodded and said, "Yes, the power of the emperor is divinely granted! The emperor's power is given by God." Isn't that right? Therefore, the edict of the emperor is preceded by the edict of the emperor, whether it reflects my uncle's decree when the emperor issues the decree, it is all said by God, there is no doubt!"
Father-in-law Liu's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he said excitedly: "This is good, this is good!"
"Therefore, my uncle has been accustomed to his ministers for too long, and he has no way of being a king. dared to find trouble under the plaque given by the emperor himself, and he didn't take His Majesty seriously. Xia Xinghan said seriously.
Gonggong Liu asked in a low voice, "The way of the monarch and the minister...... What's it again?"
Xia Xinghan whispered: "I don't know this, okay, good people do it to the end." The way of the monarch and the minister, that is, the king controls the world with the minister, but the king is called the emperor by the minister, and the minister is the key to the king. The king wants his ministers to die, and the ministers have to die. The courtiers should serve the king as the way, think about the king everywhere, and the king should focus on the country, and the courtiers should take the protection of the king's country and the country as their own responsibility. This is the way of a courtier. ”
Xia Xinghan just said everything he knew, and Gonggong Liu said excitedly: "Okay, okay, thank you first." ”
Xia Xinghan said with a smile: "That father-in-law also remembers to help me speak, I am actually like a good gentleman, but my mother always scolds me." You see, I've been locked up at home for three days. ”
Gonggong Liu said with a smile: "It's easy to say, it's easy to say." ”
Xia Fu brought a red envelope, and silver tickets were placed inside. After Xia Xinghan gave the red envelope to Father-in-law Liu, he watched Father-in-law Liu leave. Pang Xiu leaned over and said: "I said, boss, you are so awesome, I thought you had learned to be vulgar! ”
"Don't be afraid of sycophants!Train!" Xia Xinghan glared at Pang Xiu.
Xia Xinghan said these words with his own calculations, Xia Xinghan knew that this holy decree was actually to pull hatred for himself, his trick was to pull the hatred to the minimum, and it didn't matter if he offended King Anxi. After all, there is cover, but let His Majesty keep an eye on it, and it will be troublesome. ”
The emperor is going to stay here with Xia Guifei, so he plans to let the eldest princess eat here with him for dinner. While chatting, Gonggong Liu came in, and the emperor asked the concubine and the eldest princess to chat in the house, and he went out to the courtyard to talk to Gonggong Liu.
Gonggong Liu told Xia Xinghan's words to the emperor in their original form. The result really made the emperor very happy! This is a high-end sycophant. The emperor looked at Gonggong Liu and said, "Do you really say that?"
"Yes, how dare the old slave deceive Your Majesty?"
The emperor smiled evilly and said, "What do you think, Fengtian carrier, how about these words in the emperor's edict?"
"Hehe, Your Majesty, what does the old slave know? Gonggong Liu was cunning, and the emperor said with a smile: "You old slippery head, okay, I don't ask you." I asked the imperial sister to go, Xia Guifei and the imperial sister are both knowledgeable and knowledgeable people. Most likely, she taught her all of this. But the royal sister is too, Xing Han is a child, he is originally the age of playing, so what do you force him to do?
The emperor turned around and came back in a good mood, Xia Guifei looked at the emperor with a smile and asked, "Your Majesty, what happy event is so happy?"
"I just got a great piece of advice, listen to it. If the beginning of my holy decree is changed like this in the future, it will be carried by heaven, and the emperor will say. What do you think?"
Xia Guifei and the eldest princess looked at each other, and the eldest princess said excitedly: "Whose opinion is this, this person should be greatly rewarded! Fengtian carries the emperor's edict and said, these eight words fully reflect the majesty of our royal family, and it is also a kind of self-humility, which is the will of heaven, but humility has the meaning of increasing the greater royal majesty and inviolability!"
"Sister Huang doesn't know whose idea this is, what is Xing Han doing at home?" the emperor asked curiously.
The eldest princess also kept an eye on it, she sighed and said: "I stay at home and read every day, what is the use of reading books every day?"
"Why didn't it work? This idea was the one that Xing Han came up with. And Xing Han also mentioned the Junchen Compendium to me, I think it's very good, every sentence is reasonable. The way of the monarch and the minister is that the monarch controls the world with his ministers, the monarch is called the emperor by his ministers, and the ministers take the monarch as the key link. The king wants his ministers to die, and the ministers have to die. The courtiers should take serving the king as the way, cultivate themselves, work together with the family, govern the country, and level the world! This should be done by the courtiers, learn the art of literature and martial arts, and sell the goods to the emperor's family. Isn't this sentence a classic? I don't think it's useless for Xinghan to read books, he is very likely to be a good person who governs the world! This kind of talent is still the blood of our royal family, and I am very excited! When I discipline Xinghan in the future, let it be up to the child's mind! After all, Xinghan has grown up and has his own ideas. What do you say?"
How smart the eldest princess was, when she heard the emperor's words, she immediately understood what her son was going to do, and she said with a smile: "Good boy, you have learned to sue the black." For His Majesty's sake, I'll give him some freedom. But I still have to protect him these days, and if anyone takes advantage of this time to hurt him, we can't find out who did it. ”
The emperor smiled and said: "It's okay, I will issue an order to remind King Anxi, and it is just right to use this Fengtian to carry the emperor's edict!"
