Chapter 20: Concubine Li Xian

As for those who were injured, some were arranged in the grange under the Star Picking Tower, some were independent of themselves, and some were arranged in Xiao Rui's grange.

No matter how they choose, these people have no hesitation in their hearts, although they are seriously injured and their lives will be problems in the future, but they have received a generous pension, which is enough to make them live well, arrange their families and their lives for the rest of their lives.

Qin Mingyue and Xiao Rui were in the cabin, looking at the news they had recently collected.

Xiao Rui's face was calm and said, "These two people are really looking for death." is so bold that he wants to embarrass you by the Confucian scholars in Hu Province, pour dirty water on you, criticize you with words and writings, make you ruined, and even want your Qin family to be humiliated. ”

Qin Mingyue was indeed light: "What is this?" That's how dirty politics is. In my previous life, I fought for more than ten years, and I splashed less dirty water on each other? Xiao Rui, fighting in the rivers and lakes, fighting or something, I am not as good as you, the methods of these court politicians, you are not as good as me. Just wait, I'll let them suffer the consequences. ”

"Hmph, this Hu Deyan is just a sour Confucian, and he can even be said to be a gentleman. Relying on his father's scholarly reputation, Confucian status, and his own fame, do you think that he is a universal response in Shilin? Hmph, reality will let him know what cruelty means. ”

Xiao Rui opened his mouth, he really didn't know what to say, he really lacked the means to deal with politicians. In his previous life, after Qin Mingyue died, he could only rely on Wu Zong's skills to kill Hua Yixuan and them. For Xiao Xi and He Xiang, he has no way.

Qin Mingyue smiled slightly and said, "Okay, these beam-jumping clowns are not worthy of our attention. Now we're going to talk about our business. The first thing, all the injured personnel, have already recovered. This time, we gave a very high pension, and I believe that they should be able to live the rest of their lives well. This time, although the casualties were not small, I was not very uncomfortable. Because I am capable enough to take care of them and give them good arrangements. I don't want to be in my previous life, after we fought the Great Xia War, because the imperial court had no money, this pension could not be paid for a long time. The brothers and comrades who followed us from birth to death, after shedding blood, shed tears, which made people's hearts uncomfortable. ”

Speaking of this, Xiao Rui was also a little uncomfortable, he said: "I was too naΓ―ve in my previous life. Never knew the importance of money. I always think that money is a very vulgar thing. I'm a prince, how can I care about that? However, later, when I saw that my good brothers were injured, there was no way to treat them, there was no money to arrange their lives for the rest of their lives, and they were destitute, how I blamed myself and felt guilty. Hey, fortunately, in this life, there is no such situation. ”

Qin Mingyue nodded and said, "In the future, none of us will make the mistakes of our previous lives." When it comes to money, we're really using money everywhere now. Immediately, you will have to fight in Ba Province with people, and there will inevitably be a large number of casualties. Although in this life, the imperial treasury was much more relaxed, but the pension given by the imperial court was really not much. If you can have more money, you can also give a little help to those comrades who have followed you from birth to death. Me too, Taoism needs money everywhere. Although I have a lot of national teacher industries, I also make a lot of money, and I will make more money in the future, but it is still not enough. In this way, foreign money is needed. ”

"When are we going to find the location of the treasure that Lord Turtle gave us? Lord Gengui has fallen into a deep sleep. It is impossible to provide us with any more information, and we can only rely on our own abilities to find that treasure. Did you find someone to explore over there? ”

Xiao Rui said: "I have already started this. My people have gone to that place. Just on our way from Shanshui City to Yilan City, we passed a place called Fenglingdu. From there, I went ashore and walked, about fifty miles, to a hidden valley. Inaccessible, that treasure is buried there. ”

"My initial manual exploration has found that valley, which is indeed very hidden, and there is no sign of anyone entering. In that valley, some century-old medicinal herbs were also found. It can be seen that in the past hundred years, no medicine pickers and mountain people have entered. So, the treasure is likely still there. Shall we go and open that treasure first on the way? ”

Qin Mingyue said: "Okay, originally these things should be handed over to the people below." However, since we know that there is a big drama waiting for us in Yilan City, why do we throw ourselves into the net step by step? We're just going to make them wait a few more days, what do you think? ”

Xiao Rui looked at Qin Mingyue's naughty face and said with a smile: "Okay, everything depends on you." ”

Qin Mingyue smiled. Then he asked, "How is the situation in the capital?" ”

Xiao Rui said: "In the palace, it's still like that, Empress Yang is forbidden to leave the palace. She had always thought about it in her palace. Several minions of Empress Yang, during this period of time, have also been almost hit by Concubine Li Xian, who manages palace affairs. The palace is clear. Of course, this is only a temporary sign. Concubine Li Xian just replaced Empress Yang's people with her own. These hands have not yet figured out the rules in the palace and the power in their hands. When they gain a firm foothold, it is estimated that it will be time for them to be arrogant. ”

Qin Mingyue remembered that in her previous life, Xiao Xi became the emperor and Concubine Li Xian became the queen mother. Concubine Li Xian, who became the queen mother, is not virtuous at all. She first moved all the concubines in the palace of the first emperor to Shoukang Palace, and she herself lived in the gorgeous, tall and spacious Wanshou Palace. Then, she sent all the young concubines of the first emperor to guard the spirits of the first emperor. Lived in the cemetery. The middle-aged ones were sent to the royal Taoist temple and became female crowns. He also sent a particularly strict grandmother to manage it. It's just two or three years of hard work, whether it's in the cemetery or in the Taoist temple, these concubines are basically dead.

Among them, Concubine Liniang was also tortured for a period of time. Xiao Rui was very angry at that time, and even went to find Xiao Xi's theory. Xiao Xi is not easy to do with his younger brother. First, when Xiao Rui did not ascend the throne, he was his good helper, a good brother, and he could be regarded as a minister of the dragon, so it was not easy for him to turn his face.

Second, when Great Xia attacked, it was Xiao Rui and Qin Mingyue who resisted it and made great contributions. made Xiao Xi dare not attack Xiao Rui. There is no way, Xiao Xi can only persuade the Queen Mother to release Concubine Li from the palace and send her to Xiao Rui's palace for retirement.

In this way, Xiao Rui can be regarded as resigned.
