Chapter 33: The Guanhai of the Capital and the Martial Saint Coming from the East (1)
The next day, Nangong Yu went to give Zhu Houyu gas, and he presented all the gift lists he received to Zhu Houyu. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info Zhu Houxi was puzzled and said: "What does this mean, prince?" Nangong Yu said: "The number of gifts is amazing, and I really don't dare to accept them." Zhu Houxi smiled and said: "Who sent the most and who sent the least?" Nangong Yu said: "The Yan family has the most, and Lord Zhang Juzheng has the least." Zhu Houxi said: "Then do you think that the Yan family's father and son are corrupt officials, and Zhang Juzheng is a good official?" Nangong Yu said: "The important ministers of the court are not the ministers who can be discussed." But Master Zhang must be a clean official. ā
Zhu Houxi smiled and said: "If you come to employ people, what kind of officials will you use?" Nangong Yu hurriedly said: "Brother Chen didn't dare to make this assumption. Zhu Houxi smiled: "But it doesn't hurt to say, you are not guilty." Nangong Yu said: "That brother will definitely use a clean and self-righteous official." Zhu Houxi said: "You are looking at the problem from the perspective of the courtiers, if you are me, you will slowly find that if you only use clean officials and direct officials, they will condense into a rope, kidnap you morally, and force you to do what they want, it will be difficult for you to have your own opinions, and even if you have, it is difficult to do it, let alone speak, who can say more than those bachelors of the Hanlin Academy?"
Nangong Yu nodded, thoughtful. Zhu Houxi continued: "Whether it is a corrupt official or a clean official, the emperor must first be 'loyal' in employing people, no matter how traitorous the corrupt officials are, as long as they are loyal to me, I am not afraid of them making trouble." The second is to use 'appropriate officials', and I use some people just to make them scolded. If they don't get scolded, then the one who gets scolded is me, there is no silt in front of them, and Qingliu directly rushed into the Dragon King Temple. Finally, it is necessary to use capable officials, no matter what method is used, they have the ability to do things. If he can only say some 'sage words' but does not have the courage to do things, no matter how clear he is, who will take care of my worries when he encounters difficulties? Employing people is knowledge, who to use, how to use it, when to use it, that rod and weight in my heart. No matter what the official is, he is just a pawn of me. ā
Nangong Yu had to admit that he had some truth in what he said, he didn't go to court for twenty years, but he knew everything about the world, he didn't care about small things, and he didn't care about big things. Nangong Yu said: "Brother Chen understands. Zhu Houxi said: "The water of officialdom is deep, but you are young, sooner or later, you will be ripe, and it will depend on you to share my worries in the future." Nangong Yu laughed at herself: "I hope I won't be drowned before I get ripe." Zhu Houxi laughed and said: "There is no way back for others to wade into the mixed water, but you have, your surname is Zhu, this is your 10,000-year-old ship, understand?" Nangong Yu said: "Brother I understand." ā
For the next ten days, Nangong Yu entered the palace every other day to infuse Zhu Houxi, and went to Qin Yu to chat and play chess when he was fine. On this day, Xiao Jiu hurriedly ran to the mansion and found Nangong Yu and said, "Lord Qiqi, the family members of your mansion have entered the capital." Nangong Yu was overjoyed and stood in front of the door and waited.
In a short time four carriages came, one for each lady. The driver who led the carriage was Pang Mingyang, who jumped out of the carriage and said happily: "My God! You are indeed still alive." ā
The two brothers hugged each other tightly, with mixed feelings, and they didn't know where to start. Yu Jingya walked out of the carriage with Pang Jingshi in her arms and said, "I've seen the third uncle." Nangong Yu said: "I've seen my sister-in-law, please come in." ā
Wei Yurou and Ouyang Shan both walked down from the carriage with the child in their arms. Nangong Qi and Nangong Ying are two years old, wearing Shu brocade robes, small hats, and their little faces are very cute. Ouyang Shan said to Xiaoying: "Then you, your father, call your father." Nangong Ying just looked at Nangong Yu curiously and didn't speak. It was Wei Yurou's Nangong Qi who called his father under the guidance of his mother, Nangong Yu was overjoyed and said, "I have been separated from the children for too long, and I have to get along well for a while." Wei Yurou said: "Yes, I didn't expect to really come back." He suddenly found the emerald wrench on Nangong Yu's thumb, and thought that Nangong Mansion was the place where the two of them fell in love, and his heart was happy.
Nangong Yu saw that Nangong Guo had grown rapidly over the past year, and that it had become more beautiful, and said with a smile: "Guoguo, do you miss your father?" Although Nangong Guo is not Nangong Yu's biological son, they have been together for the longest time, and they are the only daughter, Nangong Yu regards it as the pearl in the palm of her hand, and it is better than her own child. Nangong Guo threw himself into Nangong Yu's arms and shouted, "Dad!"
Nangong Yu picked her up, her eyes were wet and red, and said, "Good, good, Dad has arranged a lot of toys for you in the back garden, and I will take you to play when it's not cold." ā
Nangong Yu finally saw Zhu Xinqi, and said with a smile: "Has Xiao Qi'er's swordsmanship improved? Nangong Yu asked Ouyang Shan in surprise: "What's wrong with her?" Ouyang Shan shook his head and said, "I don't know, I've been sullen all the way, and I won't say anything when I ask her." ā
Lu Gong and Qian Ping waited in the palace with all their subordinates, and when they saw them come in, the men bowed down to give salutes, and the women made ten thousand blessings, and said in unison: "I have seen all the ladies, sons, and young ladies." After they arrived, the usually quiet "Yingtian Wangfu" suddenly became lively, and Lu Gong had already prepared two maids and an old woman for each lady, and they all stepped forward to see their masters and take over the children. What's more careful is that among Ouyang Shan's subordinates, there is also a little girl of the same age as Nangong Guo, who can be both a companion and a best friend.
Wei Yurou had been to the palace, and she was already the right lady, so she didn't feel anything. Ouyang Shan and Yu Jingya are both first-time visitors, although they also come from large families, they have never seen such a gorgeous mansion. Nangong Guo and the little girl became good friends in a few words, chasing and playing with each other in front, but Zhu Xinqi still didn't say a word and walked at the back.
Pang Mingyang, whose clothes were patched, said in surprise: "Third junior brother, I only know that you used to be very rich, but I didn't expect you to be so rich, and now you are still a prince, it's really amazing." ā
Nangong Yu said with a smile: "It's just a few houses, and the senior brother in charge is far away." Can my brother and sister-in-law stay forever? I don't want to be separated from you. Pang Mingyang said: "It's okay to live for a short time, but if you live for a long time, no one will deal with the commission in the valley." Carrying out the commission is the chivalrous spirit of the master, and it cannot be discarded. Nangong Yu nodded, thought for a while, and said, "I have a way, I can send a few people to Yuntai Mountain to live for a long time, if there is a commission in the Land Temple, let them send it quickly." Yuntai Mountain is only two or three days away from the capital, so it will not be delayed. ā
Pang Mingyang said: "It's a way, you can try it." But won't we go back to the Bead Chain Water Pavilion in the future?" Nangong Yu said: "I definitely have to go back, but I have to wait for a while." ā
Ning Yuxuan can't live so many people, each lady has a small courtyard of their own, and after going back to rest for a while, they gather at Ning Yuxuan to eat. After the children ate a few bites, they were taken by the maid and the old mother to play.
Nangong Yu recounted the experience again, and even the experience on the island was not hidden, and after finishing speaking, everyone was amazed, and everyone was happy to meet again after a long absence. Only Zhu Xinqi had a gloomy little face, and said lightly at this time: "Nangong Yu, have you seen the emperor?" Nangong Yu said: "Yes, what's wrong?"
Zhu Xinqi's eyes were cold, and she stared at him and said, "Then why don't you kill him!" Nangong Yu was taken aback, but fortunately, everyone retreated, and everyone present was his own people. He got up and closed the door and said, "Qi'er, don't talk nonsense. Long live today, and he is not a debaucherous and unscrupulous king, why should you kill him?"
Zhu Xinqi said coldly: "I understand that you left the lord and returned to Middle-earth, but have you forgotten my sister's great revenge?" Nangong Yu's body was shocked, and then she remembered that her sister Zhu Xinyi was executed by Ling Chi after the "Renyin Change". Back then, Zhu Xinqi infiltrated the 'Fengyi Pavilion' to avenge her sister, but she didn't expect to ignore this, no wonder Zhu Xinqi was so angry.
