The content of Taishi Xiao's second excerpt is that he is old and frail, faint and sick, and wants to return to his hometown and quit the court.

Han Xuanchang almost thought that he had read the wrong content, and read it again, it was true, and he couldn't help but look at Xiao Taishi in horror, but he saw that Xiao Taishi was extremely calm, put down the teacup, and said with a kind smile: "Xuanchang don't be surprised, what the old man said in the excerpt is from the bottom of his heart, and there is no falsehood." He leaned back in his chair and sighed: "The old man began to enter the court as an official at the age of seventeen, and now he has three out of sixty, and he has been in the court for forty-six years...... Forty-six years have been flicked of his fingers, and the old man has also become today's Hua Jia ...... from a young man! ”

Han Xuanchang was not in a hurry to look at the third excerpt, but closed the fold in his hand, and the shock on his face did not disappear: "Taishi should be strong, Jing Shen Jianshuo, how can he have the heart to retreat?" Moreover, after this change, the state affairs are not peaceful, and there are still many major matters that need to be decided by the Taishi, whether it is in the court or in the cabinet, there can be no Taishi. ”

Master Xiao stroked his white beard and shook his head and smiled: "Others don't know, doesn't the old man himself know?" In the past two years, the old man's body has been getting worse day by day, and I am afraid that he will not live much longer. It's just that I can do more for the country, but ......! Speaking of this, the old lady coughed for a while, then took out a handkerchief, wiped the corners of her mouth, and then smiled bitterly: "But this body is really not good, I have the heart to serve the country, but I am powerless." After a pause, he sighed lightly: "In this life, the most important thing is to know how to advance and retreat, and when you should retreat, you will understand the truth of retreat, Xuanchang, don't you say?" ”

Han Xuanchang sighed: "Taishi takes care of his body. ”

Taishi Xiao smiled, pointed to the excerpt and said: "Don't mention the matter of retreating, there is the last excerpt, but I don't know what Xuanchang wants?" ”

Han Xuanchang opened the third fold with a heart that had not yet calmed down, and after only a few glances, his face suddenly changed, and he lost his voice: "Master, this ......!" ”

Taishi Xiao said calmly: "Xuanchang doesn't need to be surprised. After a moment of silence, he finally said: "Xuan Changke still remembers that when Ling Lang got married, the old man had a drinking talk?" ”

Han Xuanchang sighed: "It's a joke that Xuanchang is only a master. ”

"Half-truths." Taishi Xiao said slowly: "On that day, the old man wanted to ask Xuanchang for marriage and marry the pearl of your family to my grandson Mingtang, but after thinking about it, it was the old man who climbed ......!" ”

Han Xuanchang hurriedly arched his hand and said, "The master is laughing. Mingtang's virtuous nephew is a ...... talent! ”

Xiao Taishi didn't wait for Han Xuanchang to finish speaking, and had already waved his hand to interrupt: "He has a few catties and a few taels, how can the old man not know, he is nothing more than a gentleman, he can't be a martial artist, compared to Ling Lang, it is a world of difference." It's only to blame the old man for his dedication to state affairs all these years, and his incompetent old man can't teach anything useful, hey......! ”

Han Xuanchang hurriedly said: "The master is modest, and my inferior son is also stubborn." ”

Taishi Xiao said with a smile: "Ling Yan is knowledgeable, smart and beautiful, these old men know, thinking about it later, the old man knows that Mingtang is difficult to match Ling Yan, so he just gave up that idea." After a pause, he said: "It's just that the ancestors of the Xiao and Han families are all fighting with His Majesty Yanwu in the south and in the north, and they have a brotherly relationship...... But in recent years, you and I have disagreed on politics, and there is quite a separation, I think if you and I have a spirit, seeing this scene, we will definitely not be happy. The old man has always had the heart to form a family with the Han family, and to live in harmony, that is the right way ......! ”

Han Xuanchang put down the fold in his hand and did not speak.

"Although Lingzhi is not the old man's biological grandson, the old man regards him as his own, and has always regarded him as my own grandson, and he also worshiped the ancestors of my Xiao family and recorded it in the family tree." Taishi Xiao's face was calm, he stroked his white beard, and said slowly: "Old man, this excerpt, I implore the Holy Lord to give me a marriage and marry Lingzhi into your Han family, that is also a plan ...... a long time ago!" He laughed and said, "Your Han family can't come to my Xiao family, my Xiao family marries an N son to your Han family, that's also a great joy." ”

Han Xuanchang laughed twice, but he was a little dry.

Today, Taishi Xiao's three excerpts are more shocking than the other, and Han Xuanchang has not come back to his senses until now, he only feels that these are too incredible.

Especially when Master Xiao resigned, it was almost unthinkable.

"It is naturally a great good thing that the Taishi has the heart to marry my Han family." Han Xuanchang pondered for a moment, and finally said, "It's just ...... Han Cang already has a family, this ......! ”

"Xuanchang doesn't have to worry too much, the old man doesn't have the heart to break up the marriage." Taishi Xiao sighed lightly: "It's just that the old man knows that Han Cang is a sincere person, and Lingzhi is allowed to Han Cang, so he can live a peaceful life, even if it is only for the concubine, it is also an excellent destination." ”

Han Xuanchang didn't know how to answer for a while, and only after a while did he say, "Has the Taishi discussed with his brother at this time?" ”

Taishi Xiao smiled indifferently and said, "Brother Ling has not been in good shape these days, and he seems to be very unwell, so he has been resting in the side room for the past two days. The old man persuaded him to go back to his house to rest, but he didn't listen...... But I have to talk about it later. ”

Han Xuanchang nodded slightly, not knowing what to say.

At this time, I suddenly heard the sound of footsteps outside, and I heard Xiao Huaijin's loud voice commanding: "Hurry up and serve this official a bowl of hot tea......!" In the voice, Xiao Huaijin, who was dressed in an official uniform, had already entered.

The six departments can all enter the cabinet, and Xiao Huaijin, as a minister of the Ministry of Industry, naturally has this qualification.

He strode in, and saw that Taishi Xiao and Han Xuanchang were sitting together talking, looking extremely affectionate, and couldn't help but be stunned, glanced at the three folds in Han Xuanchang's hand, frowned, and then walked to a chair next to him and sat down.

The charcoal fire is thriving and very warm.

"There are seventy or eighty vacant official positions this time." Xiao Huaijin said: "Once the Su family's big XA officials are confiscated from their property, those silver are enough for the imperial court to use for a long time......!" He glanced at Han Xuanchang and sneered: "Lord Han, Brother Ling's household department will not be short of silver, and when the time comes, the money from the Ministry of Industry will have to be allocated happily." ”

Han Xuanchang smiled calmly: "The official is in charge of the Ministry of Rites, and the Dali Temple and the Criminal Department are responsible for copying the house, and the allocation of money is also a matter for the Ministry of Households, and Xuanchang can't say anything." But having said that, the projects that Xiao Shang did, dredging rivers, building roads and bridges, building libraries and stations, are also important matters of the country, and the household department will never delay the affairs of the Ministry of Industry. ”

Xiao Huaijin smiled coldly, but saw that Xiao Taishi looked at him with an extremely sharp and indifferent look, and didn't dare to say any more, just when the tea was delivered, Xiao Huaijin hurriedly took the teacup and took the opportunity to step down.

Han Xuanchang pushed the three folds to Taishi Xiao's side, got up and arched his hand: "Taishi sit down, and the lower officials will retire first!" He bowed his hand to Xiao Huaijin again, and then turned out of the XA hall and went out.

Xiao Huaijin saw Han Xuanchang leaving, so he put down the teacup, stood up, and muttered: "Fake benevolence and false righteousness!" He walked up to Taishi Xiao and asked, "Father, what kind of excerpt is this?" "Then he will take it and look at it.

Taishi Xiao had already taken it and retracted it in his sleeve.

Xiao Huaijin was stunned and a little puzzled, so he sat down on the chair next to Master Xiao and asked softly, "Father, what did Han Xuanchang always say to you?" Is it to boast about the merits of his son this time? ”

"Those who have merit, why brag?" Taishi Xiao glanced at Xiao Huaijin coldly, and his voice was low: "From today on, do what you should do, don't get involved in other things, your mouth must be closed tightly for me, and you should not open your mouth if you should say what you shouldn't say." ”

Xiao Huaijin was stunned for a moment, and said strangely: "Father, why is this?" ”

"For the sake of the family." Taishi Xiao's expression was cold: "If you still can't figure it out today, then you should sit honestly and figure it out." ”

Xiao Huaijin was in awe of his father from the bottom of his bones, and he didn't dare to say more, so he changed the topic and said: "Father, the officials who plotted rebellion this time have been found out one hundred and sixty-nine people, plus their subordinates and cronies and relatives in the house, more than 2,000 people are now imprisoned, several cells have been filled, and now a few houses have been vacated to imprison the Luan Party, according to Yan Law, betrayal of Luan is the crime of extermination, this big gang of people is not executed for a day, it will be a trouble for a day, it is better for the cabinet to plan an execution order earlier, Cut down all the Luans. ”

Taishi Xiao frowned and said, "What the old man said just now, didn't you understand?" When will it be your turn to ask about these things? When do you want you to get the knife that killed the Luan Party? ”

Xiao Huaijin lowered his head, very embarrassed for a while.

Taishi Xiao put his hands behind his back, slowly walked out of the XA hall, walked outside Zhengen, looked up at the sky, and muttered to himself: "This knife must be lifted by himself." ”

……

At dusk that night, Han Mo, who had been outside the city for five days, finally heard that the situation in the city was generally stable, so he arranged for the garrison outside the city, and couldn't wait to enter the city, and went back to his own house.

In the past few days, although he learned that his family was fine, he was always worried about it, and he didn't miss it for a moment.

After the great tribulation, I realized the importance of many things.

Under the escort of more than ten horsemen, before Han Mo arrived at the mansion, the mansion was closed, and there were soldiers guarding it.

The soldiers naturally knew Han Mo and bowed down, while Han Mo went up to knock on En, and it took a long time for En'er to open a crack, and the person who opened En inside saw Han Mo and said in surprise: "Young Master!" ”

Han Mo didn't say much, he entered the mansion, only to see that there was silence in the mansion, walked past the main courtyard, thought about it, after all, he went to the east courtyard, and when he arrived at the east courtyard, he saw the lights in the main house.

The maids outside EN were all overjoyed when they saw Han Mo, and some maids had already entered the house to report, Han Mo didn't say much, and went straight into the house, only to see Mrs. Han holding Xiao Qian's hand and coming out of the inner room.

When Han Mo saw his loved ones, his heart moved, and he saw Xiao Qian's eyes red and swollen, like pink peaches, looking pitiful, and her face was a little pale, which was very different from the delicate white in the past.

Those big beautiful eyes were looking at themselves, some surprises, some grievances, and even more residual fear.

Han Mo felt a burst of love and pity in his heart, and at this time, he couldn't care about the maids in the house, so he stepped forward in armor that was still covered with blood, hugged Xiao Qian in his arms, and said softly: "It's okay, don't be afraid, Xianggong is here...... Let you suffer! ”

Xiao Qian actually hugged Han Mo too, tears dripped down her eyes, like pearls, and she choked up: "Xiao Qian thought that she would never see her husband again......!" ”
