Xie Shen stepped out of the Weihou Mansion, and then got into the carriage.

After General Secretary Yang came in, he said, "Lord Admiral, there is new news. The discord between the Sima brothers has been going on for a while, because there has been no other impact, and the war and disaster have been very busy recently, so they have not continued to follow up after receiving three reports. ”

Xie Shence nodded: "Well, it's excusable. What's new? ”

"Sima Jin, Sima Shan, and Sima Tan had a feud when they were children, and they found out about their humble functions, but they still deduced some traces after turning over the files of the time ago. Because Sima Tan went home twice for a very short time at that time, the contradiction never appeared, and no one ever noticed it. However, after Sima Tan returned to Jindu at the end of the previous year, the contradictions between the three began to slowly brew and intensify. As for the reason"

Mr. Yang glanced at Xie Shence, and stopped talking.

Xie Shence waved his hand and said, "It's okay to say it. ”

"Yes, then the humble position is because of Miss Xie."

Xie Shence frowned.

"Is it really because of my eldest sister?"

"Yes, it's really because of your sister, Lord Admiral. The three brothers of the Sima family seem to be interesting to your eldest sister. ”

Xie Shence's brow raised again.

"This is not normal, according to common sense, even if the three of them like my eldest sister, then since I am ∑ eldest sister, my sister has already married Sima Tan under the instruction of Sima Bi and grandpa, then even if they can't let go of my eldest sister, they will not be entangled anymore. What's more, at this time, the eldest sister and Sima Tan will get married in less than twenty days. Well, even if they are dead set on my eldest sister and entangled, Sima Shan can still say that Sima Jin is a child who can dig out a bird's nest, and he has no reason. Besides, Scholar Sima didn't react? ”

Mr. Yang looked embarrassed and said, "I can't figure out the reason for my humble position. It's just that the evidence is conclusive, and if it is not true that the lowly position cannot be denied, it will not dare to make a conclusion. ”

"Well, I know that you have always been steady, so what is the reason for you to be so sure?"

Mr. Yang wanted to speak and stopped.

Xie Shence smiled and said, "Old Yang, let's talk to each other, and promise you that we will never be angry." ”

Mr. Yang hurriedly said: "I don't dare to be humble." Then the lowly position will be said bluntly. The reason is that the few green houses they often go to, and the girls they often order, all look similar to the eldest lady and have been asked by those lowly officials, and when those girls are acting, they are forced to call themselves ""

In the end, Mr. Yang couldn't say any more.

Xie Shence took a deep breath, how could he not know what General Secretary Yang couldn't say, it was nothing more than self-deception. Forcibly suppressing the anger in his heart, Xie Shence closed his eyes and let out a long exhale.

The eldest sister has always been low-key and has a very low sense of existence, but it is only because of her engagement with Sima Tan that she is often mentioned in the Jindu. It's just that when people mention her, they compare her more with her two brothers. Two brothers, Xie Shenwei is still Princess Jinyang, Xie Shence's fiancée is the daughter of the richest family in the Great Jin Dynasty, and her in-laws are the leading wealthy family in the Great Jin military.

Xie Shenpei is low-key, so many people don't know her, even if she walks on the street, if she is not a very familiar person, she will not be able to find her under normal circumstances. Even if he lived such a low-key life, Xie Shenpei was still remembered.

An inexplicable annoyance swelled in Xie Shence's heart, and anger filled his chest.

Is it tolerable or unbearable!

This is a blasphemy against the Xie family and a provocation!

Even if few people know.

"How many people know about this?"

Mr. Yang replied: "There are not many, except for Sima Shan, Sima Jian and those girls, even the old bustard doesn't know." ”

"Keep an eye on it, if you let this leak out, try not to kill people, it will cause alarm. But when you can't hold it, you should do it quickly. ”

General Secretary Yang agreed, and then savored Xie Shence's words, and exclaimed: "Cause alarm, Lord Admiral said"

"Yes, this matter is not so simple, there must be a driving force behind it, although Brother Sima is stupid, but he is not a stupid person, there is no reason to be so blatantly nonsense, behind this, there must be some ulterior purpose either against my Xie family or against Ti Qisi. Lao Yang, this matter is closely watched, you are personally responsible, and I will transfer someone from the Xie family's staff to assist you. This time, the manpower in the division is all newcomers, and my requirement is to be bold and careful, don't be afraid to touch any group interests and the like, let it go! How much can be figured out. ”

At the end, Xie Shence said with a gloomy face: "I want to see who dares to take my Xie family seriously!" ”

Mr. Yang bowed his head and bowed his hand.

Xie Shence went to the Tiqi Division, took a moment to sort out all the information sent by General Secretary Yang, and had a general grasp of the recent things about the three brothers of the Sima family, and then started the routine work.

The war in the north is nearing its end, and the crown prince should be freed and then entrusted with important tasks. Sima Bi reined in after that attack on the Ti Cavalry Division, as if he had restored the true character of a Great Jin courtier, and worked diligently and actively promoted the counterattack.

Because of the merit of the king of Qi in adjusting the grain, the disaster was controlled, and the problem of military ration was also solved by Xie Shang. Because there was news before that King Qi fell ill because he had not slept for several days, he was specially ordered by Emperor Jin to return to Kyoto to recuperate. As for the reason for the illness or something else, Xie Shence didn't delve into it.

Dealt with some things, in the afternoon, Mi Yu sent some reports, Xie Shence looked at it, but there was no problem, asked the secretariat if there were any accumulated documents, and after getting a negative answer, he went directly to Zhou's house to visit Zhou Jinmian.

Now that some things are coming one after another, Xie Shence urgently needs Zhou Jinmian to get better soon.

Emperor Jin was ready to open a lecture on martial arts, which involved many yamen such as the Ministry of Households, the Ministry of Industry, and the Ministry of War, as well as many intertwined entanglements of forces, which were extremely troublesome and difficult. This requires Tiqi to dare to fight, dare to kill, and attack decisively.

The reconstruction work in the north included the tedious work of resettlement, land measurement, house construction, clearing siltation, and dealing with the plague.

The most important problem of spring plowing in the north seems to have been resolved, and the imperial court finally compromised. But Xie Shence still wants to take a small notebook of those families that have profited once, collect their incriminating evidence, and then settle the accounts after the autumn. This can also be regarded as fitting the inner thoughts of Emperor Jin.

At this time, Xie Shence vaguely sensed from some clues that a conspiracy was brewing, and his current progress was still very slow.

In addition, Xie Shence planned to develop gunpowder, fire, and guns, so at this time, he felt that he was lacking in skills and had limited energy, so he really wanted someone to help him share it, and such a person was currently in the Tiqi Division, and only Zhou Jinmian, who was sick.

After spending most of the seemingly idle days in the Tiqi Division, Xie Shence had actually scolded himself more than once in his heart.

Why do you have nothing to provoke people's fragile hearts, this is not a family at home to make up for the sleep with their daughter-in-law and rest, but they are going to be tired like a dog really deserve it! It should have been reversed!

Xie Shence carried the two bottles of old wine that Rang Tiqi bought from the tavern that he hadn't been to for a long time, wrapped a bag of peanuts, and then entered Zhou Jinmian's house.

Tian Fen was a little unhappy that Xie Shence was carrying the wine, but he didn't dare to say it, so he had to let the kitchen prepare some side dishes for the two of them to drink.

Zhou Jinmian was already able to get up, and after resting for less than a day, he was able to get out of bed and walk around, and he also had strength in his body, but his heart was still a little blocked.

Xie Shence and Zhou Jinmian drank in the small courtyard.

Zhou Jinmian took a sip of the old wine, smacked his lips and said: "This wine is not very mellow and not very dry, but it has a taste." I'm afraid this is what the Admiral once said that Sima University scholars often go to that tavern, right? ”

Xie Shence smiled: "Exactly. The old wine is good, the old wine relieves your sorrows, you have something in your heart, I can't rest assured, so I still plan to listen to it and enlighten you. ”

Zhou Jinmian glanced at Xie Shence in disbelief and said, "Lord Admiral, do you think that you can't be lazy without someone to help you do things, so you hope that I will get better soon, right?" ”

Xie Shence didn't blush at all, stretched out his thumb and said to Zhou Jinmian: "Those who know me, Zi knows also!" ”

Of course, Xie Shence knew where Zhou Jinmian's heart knot was, but he still didn't know what kind of entanglement method was. It's not a roundworm in the stomach, how can you know everything ()?

Zhou Jinmian was silent for a while, then gritted his teeth and said, "Actually, there are still some things that can't be let go. ”

"Land annexation has always been very serious, which dynasty and which generation did not? It's just because of this dynasty, or rather, today, that the clan gate valve has made this kind of thing more serious. But compared with other countries, now the people of Dajin are generally no worse than the Qin and Song people, and they are much stronger than the Yan people, so even if it is a merger, even if it is more serious, what does it matter? ”

"That's what I said, but I still can't let go in my heart, in the end, it's because my family is not very conspicuous in Jin, and I don't have the same power as your family, so I feel uncomfortable? Or is it because of this kind of thing, which is not right in itself? Is it unfair in itself? ”

"Some people don't live as well as dogs, but they still love their offspring. I've seen the people in the garden on the outskirts of the West City, wearing straw sandals, standing on the frozen shore fishing, just to make a fish soup for the children of the family for the New Year. I've also seen the civil area of Jindu, where someone is fighting with a dog over a piece of stinky meat and bones I'm Ti Qiwen and the Secretariat, and I've been exposed to all kinds of news since I was a child, so I know that some people are really not as good as dogs."

"But they're alive! Is it wrong to want to live better? That's right, but why didn't anyone help them? Already alive and well, they don't need to be better, really, they're already good, they really don't need to be better, but they're still taking it, and yet there are people on the side who are encouraging and cheering and even accomplices. ”

"Why is that? I want to know why, Lord Admiral, but I can't answer myself, or I can't convince myself."

Zhou Jinmian trembled and went to clip a peanut, but he didn't succeed several times.

Xie Shence looked at Zhou Jinmian like this, and couldn't help but feel inexplicably sad.

(ps: Well, I admit it, in fact, when I wrote such a Zhou Jinmian, my nose was also sour, it was not his problem, he bravely carried it.) ）
