Chapter 38: Everyday Life

On March 19 of the first year of Jingzhi of the Great Zhou Dynasty, that is, the third day when Li Xian and others conspired to capture the Taiping army lurking in the northern Xinjiang and Wu Heng failed, Li Mao, the king of Yan, resolutely led the 20,000 Yuyang iron cavalry to return to the northern Xinjiang ruffian emperor without reporting to the imperial court.

In this regard, the Jijing Imperial Court not only did not have any complaints, but even many officials secretly rejoiced after learning about the incident, glad that the worst scene for Jijing did not happen after all, after all, although Jijing is the capital of the Great Zhou State, but the army stationed near Anping State is only [Four Towns] and the Jizhou Army, once the war with the Northern Xinjiang starts, to tell the truth, if the Jijing Imperial Court does not mobilize the troops stationed in various places, it may not be able to win the 100,000 tiger and wolf division under Li Mao's command that has been in Northern Xinjiang for a long time and has rich combat experience.

Because of this, for Li Xian, who designed to force back [Yan Wang] Li Mao, the Jijing Imperial Court was rewarded with a large reward, rewarding gold, silver, wealth, and rare treasures, which was regarded as the emperor's grace.

I found out that Wu Heng, why should I reward Li Xian for that unreliable guy?

In this regard, Xie An secretly pouted, full of resentment, how did he look at Li Xian at the court meeting that day.

Thinking about it, it was a good thing, then Li Xian had to invite that Li Mao to Xie An's house, and it sounded good in order to create the best chance for that Wu Heng to assassinate Li Mao, and at that time, it was said with a lot of confidence.

But the result? That Wu Heng didn't catch it, Li Mao, the king of Yan, beat the loyal general Le Xu hard, and almost beat the latter to death, so Xie An secretly discussed with himself, maybe this matter has something to do with Li Mao quietly leaving Jijing, think about it, if this kind of oolong thing spreads, wouldn't it make the world laugh off the big teeth?

And he Xie An, was also injured because of this incident, and even the front yard of the house was severely destroyed by that group of people, according to the calculation of Qian Xi, the housekeeper of the house, the loss was as high as tens of thousands of taels, although most of the front yard was destroyed because of the Liang Qiu dance. But you have to think about it, if there is no matter of Li Xian, how can he Xie An be injured? Why did Liang Qiuwu get angry when she saw her husband injured?

And the most infuriating thing is that he thanked the loss of the government, and Li Xian, who controlled the treasury expenditure, did not ask the Ministry of Industry to reimburse him.

What kind of business is this?!

Because of this evil breath in his heart, he was at the court meeting. Xie An ignored Li Xian, and thought about it, it was Li Xian who caused Xie An to lose a huge amount of money, and in the end, Xie An didn't get any compensation, so how could Xie An give Li Xian a good look?

Although Xie An is now a wealthy official with millions of assets. But it can't be compared with the real family and rich businessmen in Jijing, after all, the world says that at least fifty percent of the wealth of the Great Zhou is concentrated in the hands of the families and rich people in Jijing. At the feet of the Great Zhou Tianzi, think about when Xie An got married, Wang You Wang Shilang of the Ministry of Industry took out a gift worth three million taels on it, and his heart did not change his color and heartbeat, compared with those families that have been inherited for hundreds or even hundreds of years, the financial resources of the Xie family in Jijing are now not the word Yin Fu, and it is not surprising that even the rich people in Jijing cannot be ranked. After all, Xie An did not have a caravan under his command that specifically ran the family business for the family.

What's more important is that although there are at least millions of taels in the family, all the silver is pinched in the hands of the women, and as for Xie An's personal small treasury, it is less than 50,000 taels when it is full, you said that you asked the household department to allocate 1.8 million taels to reward Lord Xie who was injured in the line of duty. Why didn't this happen?

The most infuriating thing is that he is obviously injured, but Xie An can't ask the court for leave to rest, in Li Xian's words. As the secretary of the criminal department, he wants to set an example for the people below, but fortunately, it was in the study in the palace at that time, and there was Yin Gong, an old man who saw Li Mao retreat and came to reward the juniors, Xie An only glanced at Li Xian with a resentful gaze.

To be honest, Xie An really wanted to say four words to Li Xian at that time: Fuck you!

"Alas, the court officials have no human rights......"

Bored sitting in the room of the director of the Shangshu room of the Criminal Department, Xie An held his chin in his left hand, held the seal in his right hand, and stamped the official documents on the table one by one, to be honest, he really didn't want to do this kind of boring thing, and planned to return it to his subordinates, but as soon as he said this, the four Si Shi Lang under him shook their heads one after another, and said that it was a matter of arrogance and overstepping their authority, saying that as the Shi Shilang, how dare they take the seal of the Criminal Department Shangshu to stamp the official document, and Xie An was angry that there was no way at all.

Just when Xie An was bored and just wanted to doze off, a civilian subordinate walked in and bowed his hand and said, "My lord, Zhong."
