Chapter 208: If you want to gain a foothold, you must first break the fortune
In the study room of the side hall of the Yanwang Mansion Carrier Palace.
The sun shines through the windowsill on the yellowed paper on the eucalyptus.
After being exposed to the sun, the black and red marks of the yellowed paper are particularly dazzling.
"What is this?" Xu Yi already had a guess in his heart, but he still asked uncertainly.
Zuo Shengyuan wiped the muddy tears on his cheeks and said slowly, "Back to the prince, this is the roster of more than 1,500 soldiers who participated in the night raid battle with Pan Lianghu."
When Xu Yi heard this, he secretly said in his heart: "Sure enough." ,
Without waiting for Xu Yi to ask, Zuo Shengyuan slowly said again: "Before Pan Lianghu died, he ordered the servants to find the slave maid, and asked the slave to see him for the last time."
As Zuo Shengyuan slowly narrated, the past events of more than 20 years ago slowly opened again.
After Pan Lianghu and another scarred soldier passed the news to the Yan Wang's Mansion, they saw that the former Yan Wang's prince had not shown up at all.
No news came.
At that time, Pan Lianghu seemed to understand something, knelt slowly facing the place where the carrier hall was, and after three kowtows, he got up and laughed with another scarred soldier and helped each other out of the Yanwang Mansion.
Since then, for more than ten days, the Yan Wangfu has been preparing for the future of the former Yan King.
Except for Zuo Shengyuan, who couldn't bear it and went to Pan's house to visit a few times, no one in the entire Yanwang Mansion went to visit.
Later, the body of the former King Yan was transported to Chang'an City and buried in the royal tomb.
The prince of the former Yan King escorted the soul of the former Yan King back to his hometown with his family.
At that time, the edict of the former Yan Wang's son asking for the title of prince of the county had already been transmitted to Fuyang City.
Just three days before the prince of Qianyan was about to leave.
It was difficult for Pan Lianghu to persevere, and just when his life was about to come to an end, Pan Lianghu sent someone to find Zuo Shengyuan.
The roster of warriors who had participated in the night raid and all of them died was solemnly entrusted to Zuo Shengyuan.
I hope that he can take care of as much as possible within the scope of his ability.
At that time, Pan Lianghu didn't know that there were only three days left before the prince of Qianyan left Fuyang City.
And this time, I am afraid that I will never return to Yandi in this life.
Zuo Shengyuan did not inform Pan Lianghu of this cruel fact.
In fact, even if Zuo Shengyuan wanted to tell, he didn't have a chance.
After Pan Lianghu entrusted the roster to Zuo Shengyuan, he left this world forever.
After Zuo Shengyuan got the roster, he presented it to the former Yan Wang Shizi as soon as possible.
It's a pity that the prince of the former Yan at that time was about to go to Beijing to deal with the affairs of the former Yan king, as well as the ceremony of preparing to canonize the king of Jiyin County.
Where is the mind to pay attention to some 'insignificant, people and things'?
Speaking of this, Zuo Shengyuan smiled bitterly, shook his head slowly, and said, "The slave will never forget what the son of the world said that day."
After the words fell, Zuo Shengyuan took a few deep breaths, and then continued to speak.
After the former Yan Wang Shizi clearly ignored it, Zuo Shengyuan picked up the roster that was casually thrown on the ground by the former Yan Wang Shizi.
Then he silently withdrew from the carrier hall.
For the next two days, Zuo Shengyuan held those blood-stained papers all day long.
As the last day was approaching, Zuo Shengyuan solemnly put down the blood-stained paper in his hand.
Nearly 300 internal officials of the Flattery Department were summoned overnight.

What was said that night and what happened, Zuo Shengyuan did not elaborate.
only said one sentence, after that night, the prince of Qianyan reprimanded him fiercely on the grounds that he had gathered officials without authorization.
And Zuo Shengyuan also took this opportunity to plead guilty and resign.
After that day, Zuo Shengyuan left the Yanwang Mansion with one hundred and thirty-six flattering officials.
Since then, Zuo Shengyuan has been busy with the one hundred and thirty-six flattering officials who are busy making money and taking care of the legacy of the more than 1,500 warriors.
That's it, more than 20 years
In a hurry, the middle-aged eunuch who was in the prime of life seemed to have entered the age of the sixtieth year.
One hundred and thirty-six flattering officials have also died and scattered in the past 20 years.
By now, there were as if there were only fifty-one people left.
Zuo Shengyuan's voice fell, and the whole person seemed to have lost all his spirit, sitting on the Taishi chair in a daze, silently shedding tears.
Xu Yi settled down and poured the already cold tea from Zuo Shengyuan's teacup into the inkstone.
Then he picked up the teapot and poured it a cup of steaming hot tea.
"Left flattery." Xu Yi put down the teapot and slowly pushed the teacup towards Zuo Shengyuan.
Zuo Shengyuan came back to his senses and hurriedly thanked him, and then just wanted to get up and bow down, but in his mind, he reluctantly remembered Xu Yi's royal decree that 'no kneeling is allowed.
Zuo Shengyuan had no choice but to bow his hand, full of embarrassment: "The slave is old, and I am afraid that she will die soon."
"However, among the more than 1,500 warriors of the past, there are still more than 500 who are still living in dire straits."
"The slave and maid have the courage to beg the prince if he can look at the soldiers who died for the Great Zhou."
"After the slaves and maids die, take care of them as much as possible."
"Other than that......"
"Other than that......"
"In addition to that, there are the only fifty-one remaining colleagues of the slave......
As he spoke, Zuo Shengyuan lowered his head deeply, and his voice became softer and softer.
Xu Yi didn't hesitate at all, and said directly: "Those soldiers are fighting for the country and shrouding them for the dignity of the royal family."
"As the new Yan King alone, how can you sit idly by and ignore his legacy?"
"You and the other 137 flattering officials have been running around for more than 20 years, and they should be loyal and righteous."
"How can you sit idly by and watch your old age have nothing to support?"
Xu Yi got up slowly, and then looked at Zuo Shengyuan and bowed deeply and promised, "Please rest assured that Zuo Lao is all on Xiao Wang."
A sentence of Zuo Lao, a sentence of Xiao Wang.
made Zuo Shengyuan look panicked at first, and then ......
There was nothing but tears in his eyes.
"Thank you..... Thank you for your great kindness."
"Slave...... Slaves and maids have nothing to repay in this life, and they ...... in the next life In the next life, the slave and maid will make cattle and horses for the king."
Zuo Shengyuan got up slowly and knelt down towards Xu Yi tremblingly.
Just as he was about to prostrate his head.
Xu Yi quickly stepped forward to help him up, and said again and again, "I can't help it, Zuo Lao can't help it."
"I can't help it, how dare the slave and maid bear the old words of the prince." Zuo Shengyuan waved his hand again and again.
Xu Yi said with a serious face: "Zuo Lao's move deserves an old word."
After the words fell, he saw that Zuo Shengyuan wanted to resign again.

Xu Yi had no choice but to change his words and continue to be commensurate with his original official position in the future.
Zuo Shengyuan was completely relieved when he heard this.
After this matter was stopped, Xu Yi turned his head slightly and said, "Zhao Shou."
"Zhao Shou is here." Hearing this, Zhao Shou hurriedly saluted.
Xu Yi looked at Zhao Shou and said, "Send Zuo Flattery and fifty-one old men to Flatter Division to rest."
"In addition, I ordered all the good doctors of the Good Doctor Institute to go to the Flattering Division to check the body of Zuo Flattering and the others."
"The herald prepares some mild and nourishing medicinal food for him."
Hearing this, Zhao Shou replied, "Obey."
"Lord Wang......" Zuo Shengyuan looked at Xu Yi with red and swollen eyes when he heard this, and opened his mouth several times, but he couldn't say anything other than a prince.
Xu Yi waved his hand slightly and said with a serious face: "Zuo Flattery, rest assured, with this king, the hard years of the past will be completely over, go."
Zuo Shengyuan's face was full of tears, and he opened his mouth several times, but he still couldn't make one
Speech.
In desperation, Zuo Shengyuan had no choice but to bow down silently.
Immediately, he slowly walked out of the study room in the side hall with Zhao Shou.
After the two left, Xu Yi slowly walked to the Taishi chair and took a seat.
Then lean back, put your hands on the armrests, close your eyes and relax your body as much as possible.
After the body is completely relaxed, I can meditate on the events of the day in my mind.
Since Zuo Shengyuan told the dusty past that has been sealed for more than 20 years.
It no longer matters how many of the remaining fifty-two people in this flattery division have become the eyeliner of Sun Daohua and Li Yu.
Even if these fifty-two people are all Sun Daohua and Li Yu's eyeliner?
With this dusty old story alone, it is impossible for Xu Yi to keep these people out.
But.
Not being turned away does not mean that Xu Yi will let them enter the interior of Yanwang's Mansion.
After a while, Xu Yi opened his eyes and slowly got up, lifted the ink ingot, and repeatedly deliberated on the final plan in his mind while grinding the ink.
Crisis, crisis, danger and opportunity coexist!
What Xu Yi has to do now is not simply to resolve the danger.
It's about defusing the danger and seizing the fleeting opportunity.
After the ink was ready, Xu Yi took out a piece of white rice paper and slowly spread it on top of the eucalyptus.
Then sit down and pick up the pen.
After a while, several key words appeared on the rice paper.
"The county guard Sun Daohua, the captain of the Pingyu school, Li Yu."
"Former flattering officer Zuo Shengyuan."
"Fifty-one former flattering officials."
"Former Yan Wang's Mansion Chief, Shi Pan Lianghu."
"The battle to recapture the corpse of the former Yan King."
"More than 1,500 warriors and their relics."
Xu Yi slowly put down the wolf pen in his hand, and looked at several key words on the rice paper motionlessly.
I don't know how long it took, Xu Yi raised his hands and put them to his mouth.
A crisp, rhythmic and flavorful whistle came from Xu Yi's mouth.
After a while, the leader of the conscience, dressed as a servant of the Yan Palace, hurriedly walked into the study.
"Conscience to see master." The leader of the heart closed the door of the study and bowed.
Xu Yi nodded slightly, picked up a few yellowed pieces of paper placed next to the book, and handed them to the leader of the conscience.
….

He instructed, "Ten people of conscience will be selected, and twenty people will be selected from this roster for an in-depth investigation."
"Among the twenty people drawn, five were from Fuyang City, five from the rest of the counties of Shanggu County, five from Yuyang City, and five from the rest of the counties of Yuyang County."
The Leader of the Conscience took the roster and solemnly bowed his hand, "Obey."
Xu Yi paused, and then continued to order: "In addition, ten other conscience hearts will be selected to secretly investigate Zuo Shengyuan's past, and they must be detailed."
"In the end, five conscience minds were dispatched to secretly monitor every move in the flattery division."
As soon as the words fell, the leader of the heart of conscience said with a serious face, "Obey!"
After the leader of the conscience left, Xu Yi opened the rice paper with the keywords written on it.
After relaying the paper, pick up the pen again and write and draw on the rice paper.
After a while, Xu Yi slowly put down the wolf pen in his hand, and calmly looked at the picture on the rice paper.
Dozens of houses of the same size were lined up on the rice paper.
With the exception of a few buildings marked as three-storey in the center, the rest of the buildings are one-storey buildings.
And each one-story building has a vacant space of the same size reserved at the front and back.
At the edge of the clearing, Xu Yi sketched the fence with a few simple strokes.
In the lower right corner of the rice paper are written three small characters - Nursing Home.
Just when Xu Yi was staring at the nursing home, Zhao Shou slowly walked from outside.
Xu Yi came back to his senses and waved his hand at Zhao Shou outside the door.
"Sixth Master." Seeing this, Zhao Shou couldn't help but speed up his pace and quickly walked into the study room in the side hall.
Xu Yi nodded slightly, picked up the rice paper on the book and handed it to Zhao Shou.
Then he commanded, "Send men into the city to buy eight hundred timbers, and find more than a hundred carpenters."
"In addition, you personally go to the outside of the city, choose a place near mountains and rivers, and buy two hundred acres of land."
"When everything is done, build a nursing home in the chosen place."
Zhao Shou took the rice paper, and without looking at it, he said aloud: "Obey."
Xu Yi paused and continued, "Let Lu Wensu come to the study."
"Obey." Zhao Shou agreed, then turned around and walked quickly towards the outside of the study.
After a while, Lu Wensu walked into the study of the side hall in a hurry.
"Minister Lu Wensu, meet His Royal Highness King Yan." Lu Wensu bowed.
Although he did not come to the middle of the clan this time, he sent his nephew.
What this means is self-evident.
Xu Yi reciprocated the favor, and when Fang embarked on the road to becoming a vassal, he was promoted to the director of the long history department.
Xu Yi nodded slightly, and then ordered, "Immediately draft a notice and post it in front of the four gates of Fuyang City."
After the words fell, Xu Yi slowly repeated the story told by Zuo Shengyuan today.
And pointed out the core content of the notice.
Inform the two counties of Yandi about this, and make it clear that the new king of Yan will build a nursing home outside the city of Fuyang.
Its purpose is simple and clear, that is, to support 52 loyal people, including Zuo Shengyuan, and more than 1,500 warriors who cannot take care of themselves.
In addition, Xu Yi deliberately pointed out that this nursing home is just the beginning.
In the future, more nursing homes will be built to support some widows, widows, orphans, loneliness, old age, sickness, poverty and cannot survive on their own.
After the explanation.
Xu Yi settled down, and then ordered, "After the notice is drafted, submit it to this place."
Hearing this, Lu Wensu bowed and said, "Obey."
After Lu Wensu left, Xu Yi spread out a piece of rice paper again and slowly started to make follow-up plans.
For Xu Yi, if he wants to completely gain a foothold in Yandi, the most inseparable thing is the support of the people of the two counties.
It can also be understood as the people's heart.
The people of Yandi advocate courage and martial arts, and believe in loyalty.
It won't be long after Zuo Shengyuan's news came out, and it will set off a stormy wave in Shanggu and Yuyang two counties.
And what Xu Yi has to do is to seize this opportunity.
With the object of living in a nursing home, he completely captured the trust of the veterans of the two counties.
And then establish their own image in the hearts of the people of Yandi, so as to gain a 'foothold, fame.
Of course, this is only the first step for Xu Yi to do.
The first emperor of the ages who came out of Zongzheng Temple.
