Chapter Seventy-Nine: The Prince Arrives at Yue's Mansion
For many officials in Qiongzhou, Yue Laosan, the commander of the navy, is indeed very strong, especially his underwater skills are even more breathtaking. But when it comes to commanding operations, he is not a master, but he still sits firmly on the throne of commander.
The reason for all this is that Zhao Xiaoxi trusts him. It is precisely because of this that the officers and men on the island and in the navy do not dare to show the slightest disrespect to this ugly commander.
This time, Zhao Xiaoxi became the owner of Qiongzhou, and there are really few officials who are qualified to let the Ministry of Industry help build a house, but Yue Laosan is one of them. This kind of favor also shows that Yue Laosan is indeed very important in Zhao Xiaoxi's heart.
Yue Laosan, who got this favor, never held favor and pride, on the contrary, he studied harder than anyone else in the navy. When supervising the military training of the officers and men under his command, he often leads by example and takes the trouble to set an example for the officers and men.
Even though his teaching method was a little simple and rude, the officers and soldiers still obeyed him. The reason is very simple, as the commander of an army, how many generals can share weal and woe with ordinary officers and soldiers?
As long as it is not during the mission, Yue Laosan is very polite. Moreover, he has the highest rank in the Qiongzhou Navy, and many times he pays for those officers and soldiers who have performed well to drink wine and eat meat.
This kind of habit is not suitable for the army. But it still made many officers and soldiers fall in love with this unattractive general. In addition, Yue Laosan can ask questions shamelessly when commanding, and he is also respected by his subordinates.
Now I saw Zhao Xiaoxi and the princess come to Yue Laosan's home as a guest, including Wang Shizi of Dali. This grace can be seen, and even the two wives of Yue Laosan also looked very frightened and happy.
As people who have lost their temperament, they originally had only one death. But the rescue of the third child of Yue gave them hope for life. Although Yue Laosan looked. It's a bit hard to get into the eye, but it's not bad.
During the time when it was still a skeleton pirate base, they were also arranged by the navy to take care of Yue Laosan's daily life. originally thought that they would be reduced to playthings, but Yue Laosan took good care of them and never took them lightly.
gradually got used to getting along with Yue Laosan. The two girls finally made one thing that was very ridiculed in this era. personally found Yue Laosan to show his love for him, which also seemed very shocking and unexpected to Yue Laosan.
Fortunately, Yue Laosan is not a stubborn person, and he also understands that he will eventually start a family. In the end, he didn't dislike the background and experience of the two girls, and resolutely decided to marry them, so that they could truly become his own legitimate wives.
As a result, the two female crows turned into phoenixes and became the wives of the naval commander of Qiongzhou. Fortunately, their stomachs are also angry, and they have not been married long after Yue Laosan. The two daughters have good news one after another. This is undoubtedly even more joyful for Yue Laosan and them.
Now seeing that the prince and the prince came to the door in person, the two ladies of Yue Laosan were naturally flattered. Listening to Yue Laosan's very cautious introduction, Duan Yanqing, who is also a bit hateful, is the eldest brother he never forgets.
The two ladies were also very polite, and bowed to Duan Yanqing. After all, they all know it. Yue Laosan's parents died when he was a child, and his relatives couldn't find him. As for their relatives. There are also not many that can be found.
Looking at Yue Laosan's two wives and giving himself a gift of younger siblings, Duan Yanqing looked a little nervous. At this time, Duan Yu was very eye-catching, and handed over a pair of jade pendants he was carrying.
Duan Yanqing, who has this pair of dragons and phoenixes and jade pendants, also has a gift to explain. Two women who have grown up with a lot of knowledge. Seeing such a precious jade pendant, he naturally didn't dare to go next, and glanced at Yue Laosan with a hesitant gaze.
Fortunately, Yue Laosan knew that this eldest brother was also from the prince of Dali before, and it was normal to have this kind of jade pendant. Immediately, he said, "Okay." Since this is a welcome gift from the eldest brother to you, then you can accept it! ”
Hearing Yue Laosan say this, the two women, who were also ordinary peasant women, got up and thanked them. Finally, under the urging of Yue Laosan, let the two ladies take out the child held by the wet nurse and show it to Duan Yanqing.
Looking at the two long pink and cute children, Duan Yanqing also looked a little at a loss. But Yue Laosan insisted on letting him hug his two children. So much so that Duan Yanqing at this moment looked cautious like an ordinary person.
At this moment, Yue Laosan said again: "Lord, prince, eldest brother, it is rare for you all to be here again today." I would like to ask the eldest brother to choose the names for my two children. I've always had a headache for the name! ”
Hearing this, Zhao Xiaoxi was also a little surprised: "Yue Laosan, you haven't named your child yet?" It seems that your father is a bit incompetent! So what do you call them? ”
In this regard, Yue Laosan smirked and said: "Back to the prince, the big name was not taken, but the small name was taken." The male is called Da Mao, and the female is called Xiao Mao. My third brother has never read any books, but he also knows that a cheap name is easy to support. ”
Faced with Yue Laosan asking him to choose his name, Duan Yanqing was also a little surprised. But he knew better that this was Yue Laosan's respect for him as a big brother, and he wanted him to feel the sense of an elder who named his junior.
Looking at everyone's expectant eyes, Duan Yanqing, who had also received training from the orthodox royal family. quickly said: "This child is a boy and a girl, and the time of birth is not far apart, so let's choose an appropriate name!"
Back then, the four of us walked the rivers and lakes, but we were also righteous and Jinlan. Otherwise, the man will be Yue Shuangjin, and the woman will be called Yue Shuanglan. I hope that their brothers and sisters will also have a deep relationship between brothers and sisters in the future and revitalize the Yue family for you! ”
Double gold, double orchid, although not a good name. But it contains Duan Yanqing's expectations for this pair of children. Anyway, there are only three of their four brothers and sisters at the moment, and the one who really has a newborn is Yue Laosan.
Regarding the name taken by Duan Yanqing, Yue Laosan naturally would not refuse. even said happily: "Mother-in-law, what are you still doing in a daze?" It's rare that the prince and the prince are here, let them help leave a ink treasure for our children! ”
Listening to Yue Laosan's words, everyone laughed again. But in the face of such an invitation, Zhao Xiaoxi felt that Yue Laosan was very good at being a man. Let Duan Yanqing take the name, and fulfill the righteousness of brothers.
asked him to write his name with Duan Yu, and took care of their face. This Yue Laosan, it seems that during this time in the Qiongzhou army, he has also become a little slippery. However, seeing him have changed like this, Zhao Xiaoxi is naturally happy.
The two looked at the four treasures of the study handed over, and did not give in, and soon each left a name on the paper. Cho Hyo-seok was in charge of writing the boy's name, and Duan Yu was in charge of writing the girl's name.
After writing, Zhao Xiaoxi also took out his royal jade seal and stamped it on rice paper. Seeing him do this, Duan Yu was naturally not stingy, and he also stamped the concentration seal of the prince of Dali.
Looking at the name stamped with the seal, Yue Laosan was undoubtedly as happy as a child. He copied two pieces of rice paper and said with a smile: "Mother-in-law, put these two pieces of paper away, this is the heirloom of our Yue family."
In addition, inform the housekeeper and ask him to ask the kitchen to prepare wine and food. It's rare that the prince and the prince and the eldest brother came over today. I must have a few drinks with them to thank them for their love for the children! ”
Hearing this, the princesses who stayed on the side also smiled and quipped: "General Yue, if you dare to treat you today, you must also let the prince and the prince leave Mobao." You're doing this business very shrewdly! ”
In the face of the jokes of these princesses, Yue Laosan's signature smirk, everyone who watched it was also happy. But no matter what, the people present still appreciated Yue Laosan's actions from the bottom of their hearts.
When everyone was at Yue Laosan's house, they enjoyed a happy lunch. The guards of the palace also quickly walked into Zhao Xiaoxi's ear, and he said a few words, and everyone knew that it was time to leave.
It is clear that between Duan Yanqing and the three brothers of Yue Lao, there should be a lot of things to talk about. When Zhao Xiaoxi left Yue's house, he didn't have to rush back to the palace. Anyway, Duan Yu welcomes his relatives this time, so he doesn't need to be too anxious.
Let the two brothers get together well, Zhao Xiaoxi took Duan Yu and a few concubines. Soon returned to the palace, and immediately took the palace guards and his father Zhao Hao, who was resting at home, and rushed straight to the direction of the dock.
The reason is very simple, the great writer who was brought in advance by Zhao Xiaoxi is about to arrive at the port of Qiongzhou. As a great writer who took the initiative to invite and an old minister of the two dynasties of the Northern Song Dynasty, Zhao Xiaoxi naturally wanted to show his admiration.
Compared with the need to avoid suspicion in the capital, when he arrived in Qiongzhou, everything was up to him. At present, this Su Shi is invited by him, and the first old minister with experience in governing local areas should also come forward to welcome him.
As for Zhao Hao, he left the capital and didn't know when he would be able to return. It is also a joy to be able to reunite with childhood friends here. That's why father and son went together to greet him.
I heard that Su Shi, who was famous in the Great Song Dynasty, came and also admired Duan Yu of the Great Song Dynasty literature, so he naturally would not miss such an opportunity. What's more, this time, he can also be regarded as the sister-in-law of the king of Qiongzhou, since it is rude to meet different things.
As a result, before Su Shi docked, he saw the crowded scene at the dock. Do you think this is still Qiongzhou, the wild land in the eyes of the imperial court? This scene, even if it is Jingyun Wharf, I'm afraid it won't be so lively!
Just when Su Shi was curious, the naval attache who escorted him said, "Lord Su, the prince and the old prince are already waiting at the dock. Please also prepare to get off the ship, the ship is about to dock! ”
The two princes came to greet him in person, which made Su Shi somewhat moved. was originally demoted, and he felt a little sour in his heart. But he didn't expect that he, who was demoted out of Beijing, would receive such preferential treatment here.
It's just that for the time being, I don't understand what the purpose of the Zhao family and father and son is for him, and Su Shi also thinks that he will observe for a while before speaking. In short, he also has a bottom, and some things will never be emotional! (To be continued......)
