Wishing You Eternal Happiness

At the end of the time, Chen Tingjie, a book from the Ministry of War, You Sima Luxiang, Liu Jiushao, who is in charge of the Military Affairs Department of the Southwestern Provinces, Zhou Xing, the father of Zhou Jin, and the prince, all arrived.

A few Chen Tingjie were awakened from their sleep, rushed to the palace, and then rushed here from the gate of the palace, all panting, especially Lu Xiang and Zhou Xing, who were older, and they were sweating and panting. . Entering, Xiao Lie's expression was gloomy, and he was a little confused. After he bowed, he didn't hear a flat body, and he continued to kneel there. After a long while, he finally flattened his body and heard the emperor ask: "Is there any progress on Zhou's going to the southwest to calm the refugees?"

Chen Tingjie felt loose in his heart, and said hurriedly: "Long live Qi, just yesterday, the Ministry of Defense received the Zhou Jinzou newspaper, saying that because of the emperor's favor, the total number of refugees who voluntarily returned to work after the caress reached more than 57,000 and captured the first thief. Thirty people, beheading a total of 620 people, and the remaining 32,000 people were exempted from death. A total of 3,250 weapons and weapons were seized. There were more than 5,000 horses, cattle and mules. After winning the victory, the people of the Southwest praised the grace of God. The minister had already written the report last night, and he is planning to win the victory this morning..."

When Chen Tingjie played the report, Zhou Xing looked triumphant. Xiao Yintang glanced at the emperor whose eyes were getting more and more gloomy, but a trace of ominousness suddenly passed through his heart.

The emperor nodded, and his voice became even deeper: "How are the refugees who voluntarily come out of the mountains and resume their businesses to be resettled?"

"Long live the enlightenment, Zhou Jinjie reported that some voluntarily returned to their places of origin, and the rest happily went to Yunnan, Guizhou and other places to reclaim their borders and reclaim their fields. Since then, they have been included in the household register, and they have been turned from refugees to good people, which has disturbed us for decades. The scourge of refugees can be solved..."

"fart!"

Xiao Lie was probably too angry, and even yelled at him. All of them were surprised, and Chen Tingjie was also stunned.

"Hula", Xiao Lie fought the memorial in front of him and threw it at Chen Tingjie, who was chatting. I opened my eyes and looked at what is going on in the southwest now!"

The memorial smashed Chen Tingjie’s official hat, and fell to the ground. He didn’t care about righting. Chen Tingjie picked it up quickly and looked at it quickly. His face changed drastically. Lu Xiang Liu Jiu Shao immediately took it and looked at it. Zhou Xing, Zhou Xing hurriedly answered, glanced around, shook his hand, "click", and the memorial fell to the ground.

"It's a good one to come back to work! A good one to praise the grace of God!" Xiao Lie stood up.

"I'm afraid it's a spiteful air, soaring to the sky!"

This was extremely serious. Not only Chen Tingjie was trembling, but the rest, even Zhou Xing, who had always done the ritual to avoid kneeling, also "poofed" and knelt down, claiming guilt.

Xiao Lie sneered and said: "What are you afraid of. If you want to scold, I am afraid that I was scolded behind the back. If there is no yang condemnation, there must be a negative report!"

Zhou Xing repeatedly knocked his head and tremblingly said: "Long live, Zhou Jin is eager to eradicate gangrene for the court, so that he has acted improperly. I hope Long live will be forgiving for his loyalty to the monarchy!"

Chen Tingjie also said: "Long live, Zhou Jin's report may exaggerate the merits, but the Sichuan Provincial Ministry's report may not be a one-sided word. Please long live to observe, don't listen to it."

Xiao Lie said: "When I listen to you, I listen to you at the same time. When I listen to others, I become partial listener, isn't it?"

Chen Tingjie's forehead was sweaty, and he hurriedly kowtowed to plead guilty.

Xiao Lie glanced at Xiao Yintang, who had never spoken, and said coldly: "Prince, if I remember correctly, it was Zhou Jin who was recommended by you at the time, and you have also issued a military order. Now things have not been done, but you have caused people. Chaos, why don't you talk?"

Xiao Yintang kowtowed his head and said word by word: "Father, Zhou Jin was greedy and advancing, so that it caused civil chaos, and the sons and ministers had nothing to say. When he recommended him and issued a military order, the sons and ministers were willing to commit the same crime. It’s just before the father condemned the crime, I begged to allow the sons and ministers to commit their crimes and do meritorious service, and the sons and ministers are willing to go to the southwest immediately to quell the chaos!"

Xiao Lie said coldly: "Are you going to kill another floating corpse full of rivers, the world is looking sideways?"

Xiao Yintang's face flushed, and the royal study room fell into a dead silence.

Xiao Lie turned to Lu Xiang: "What is your opinion?"

Lu Xiang was an official of the four dynasties and was regarded as one of the veterans of the imperial court. He coughed, and tremblingly said: "The emperor Qi is the emperor, and the chaos of the refugees has existed in all dynasties. The previous dynasties were not unsuccessful, but they were all temporary achievements. Even if they were dismissed at that time, once they encounter natural and man-made disasters, they will gather and live again, and they are deeply rooted and difficult to remove. Moreover, this civil turmoil is unprecedented, and the southwest is the land of long live dragons. It must not be taken lightly. In the opinion of the minister, the top priority, It is to send another person in charge to quell the chaos as soon as possible. The prince volunteered, but the crown prince of a country can only keep the heart of serving the court, and he must not be involved in danger. In the opinion of a minister, one person may be competent."

Before he said it, everyone knew it.

Xiao Lie asked: "Who?"

Lu Xiangzuo: "The person in charge should have thunder means, and he needs the ability to be soft and far-reaching. The minister thought that it was Master Shang Shutai You Chengpei."

Liu Jiushao said: "The minister seconded."

...

At dawn, Pei Youan did not come back. After Jiafu got up to wash, she had to go to Ci'en Temple first.

In the afternoon, a message came.

The improper method of the uncle Zhou Jin caused the riots in the southwest. Pei Youan was ordered in danger and was appointed by the emperor as the governor of the Pingxi Province. Due to the urgency of the situation, he had to leave soon to go to Jingxiang to quell the chaos.

The news came too suddenly. Mrs. Pei immediately let Jiafu return home, and that night, she entrusted the affairs of the monastery to the monks, and rushed back with others to practice for her eldest grandson.

At the end of summer, he left, and he didn't know when he would come back.

Tomorrow he will leave. Today is the day, everyone is in the palace.

Jia Fu took the girl-in-law to pack him up, feeling a little bit crying in her heart, it was the kind of reluctance to give up. But in front of Pei's family and his subordinates, they did not dare to reveal anything.

In the evening, Pei Youan finally returned from the palace.

The old lady set a family banquet for him. The two rooms sat at the same table.

The atmosphere during this meal was weird.

Mrs. Meng's side, from beginning to end, kept talking and laughing, nothing more than praising Pei Youan for how he got the king, Madam Xin's face was also smiling, but obviously couldn't help it.

The emperor has already made an decree, not only to remove the post of Governor Zhou Jin from the military affairs of the three provinces, but also to remove him from the post of Minister of War.

It is said that the queen interceded for him, but was also refuted by the emperor.

Last time it was the Zhang Family, and the aftermath of that incident has not yet disappeared. This time, because of Zhou Jin's affairs, the Zhou Family has become the focus of everyone's attention.

Married Zhou Jiao'e for her son. After the marriage, she found out that the daughter-in-law was wrong, but she endured it. She was a dumb loss. It was originally against the Zhou family’s forces. Was slapped in the face like this.

Madam Xin naturally couldn't laugh.

After the meal, Pei Youan personally sent Mrs. Pei back to the house. After the old lady's advice, she saw Pei Youan want to say something, and said: "Don't worry, your daughter-in-law, grandmother will take care of you. I hope you will live up to the emperor's fate and come back soon."

Pei Youan knelt down, got up and left, took two steps, turned his head, saw his grandmother sitting there, smiling, staring at his back, slightly squatting, looking very old, hesitated, and came back: "Grandma, I see that you are a little uneasy recently. I'm not at home, you must take care of yourself. When I go back, I will tell Afu to take more care of her grandmother. If grandmother is aware of the discord, remember to ask Dr. Hu to go to the house for treatment in time. I Today, I specifically told the doctor."

The old lady smiled and said, "Grandma knows."

Pei Youan glanced at the old lady again, and then left and walked to the door. Suddenly, the old lady stopped him again, then turned back.

The old lady stopped him, but did not speak for a while, only staring at his grandson. For a long time, Fang whispered: "Youan, do you still remember when you were sixteen, before you left Beijing, you were beaten by me. Is it something to stop?"

Pei Youan was silent.

The old lady sighed: "At that time, you came to hostage me, who is your biological mother? You are not the eldest son. Why do you want you to occupy the magpie's nest? You make mistakes again and again. Now, if you try to host your grandmother again Once again, grandma still can't answer. You don't blame grandma, do you?"

Pei Youan smiled slightly: "Grandma, I was ignorant at the time and made my grandmother sad. Grandma doesn't have to worry about it. Youan has forgotten what happened back then and will never ask again."

With tears in her eyes, the old lady nodded and said, "Grandma is very pleased if you can think about it this way. Now grandma has another thing that I want you to remember. Birth is not something that anyone can choose. To be born, walk upright, It is enough to be ashamed of the world. I know you can reassure grandma."

Pei Youan was startled slightly, stood there for a moment, then knelt down to the old lady again, and solemnly bowed his head: "Grandma, don't worry. Grandma teaches you today, You An must keep it in mind."

The old lady smiled and said: "In the past, you were alone, and grandmother always felt that you had no worries about you here and there, and she was very worried. Now that you have married a daughter-in-law, grandmother is relieved. Okay, I'm fine here, you can go back. You will leave tomorrow. You two must also have something to say."

Pei Youan got up, looked at the old lady again, and saw that she was sitting there, smiling, and brushing her hand at herself.

...

Pei Youan gradually speeded up his pace and entered the room. Sandalwood Mother Liu and the others didn't need to give orders, so they went out of the house one after another and closed the door by the way.

Gaffer threw himself into his arms and was carried onto the bed by him.

It's the tenderness of the night.

At first, Jiafu could not help crying, until dawn, he got up, helped him put on clothes one by one, and finally buckled his belt. Finally, he couldn't help it. She shed a tear, but she wiped it off immediately and laughed. Said: "Big cousin, don't worry, I will remember your words, take care of myself, and take care of my grandmother. I will wait for your return together with my grandmother."

Pei Youan put her in his arms and hugged her hard.

Its daybreak. Jia Fu and Mrs. Pei and others, together sent him out.

She stood in the gate, looking at Pei Youan's back, and gradually disappeared into the morning light.
