The system forced me to be emperor

Xiao Rui could only open the door, and the little witch jumped up quickly, while Mu Chen, Qinglian swordsman Zhang Zhiqin and Yan Qing stood outside the door with helpless expressions on their faces.

It seemed that the three of them couldn't deal with the little witch without subduing her.

The little witch rushed in. When he saw Emperor Xia for the first time, he looked him up and down, and then asked, "Are you the seventh son's father?"

Emperor Xia looked at the strangeness of the little witch, nodded with a smile, and said, "Yes! What's your name?"

The little witch rolled her eyes and said with a smile: "My name is Valkyrie, but you are a powerful person at first glance, so you can call me Jin Yuner!"

Xiao Rui immediately looked at the little witch differently, she really knows how to flatter!

Emperor Xia laughed, then got up and said, "Okay, then let Xiaoqi tell you a story, and I will go for a walk and enjoy the beautiful scenery of Mindong Mansion."

Xiao Rui sent Emperor Xia out of the inn, then turned his head to look at the little witch following behind, and suddenly felt that life was boring and boring.

Chapter 315: Free yourself

On the fourth day when Xiao Rui and Emperor Xia came to Mindong Mansion, Ming Wang Xiao Yuan hurried over from Minzhong Mansion. When he heard that Father Emperor and Xian Wang had arrived, he was first surprised and then overjoyed.

What surprised me was that the father was busy with official duties, and how could the body of ten thousand gold come to Fuzhou, which is a remote border?What makes me happy is that my father loves me so much that I came to see me.

At that moment, Xiao Yuan's last grievances about being relegated here disappeared in his heart, so he immediately rushed to Mindong Mansion with his people.

When he came to the inn, Xiao Yuan knocked on the door with excitement, Hai Dafu opened the door, and when he saw Xiao Yuan's face clearly, he couldn't help raising his eyebrows.

"Father is above, my son-in-law Xiao Yuan is unfilial and failed to meet father, I implore father to punish." Xiao Yuan directly bowed after entering the house, his eyes were red, not letting tears fall.

Xia Huang was chatting with Xiao Rui, when he saw Xiao Yuan coming in, he bowed his head, and said with a smile, "Get up."

Xiao Yuan raised his head and looked at Emperor Xia and Xiao Rui excitedly. The two of them were also looking at Xiao Yuan, but their expressions were the same as Hai Dafu's, they were both stunned.

Why?

Just because of Xiao Yuan's miserable appearance, the white and clean skin that he used to be pampered with in the past turned out to be tanned, and his figure has become thinner, his whole person has changed drastically.

Emperor Xia's expression froze and he sighed.

Xiao Rui also couldn't help but said: "Fifth brother, wine, sex and wealth are like a bone-scraping steel knife. When you come to Fuzhou and stay away from the capital, you can't let yourself go. Look at your figure, it's almost too weak. This can't be done."

Xiao Yuan was furious, and shouted: "Xiao Qi, don't talk nonsense, don't slander the king in front of the father! Father, please be clear, my son is definitely not such a person!"

Xia Huang glared, and said angrily: "You still don't admit it? I have seen everything you do, and you are still stubborn!"

When Xiao Yuan saw that His Majesty was angry, he knelt on the ground in fright, and said: "My son and servant are all following the teachings of the father, and I ask the father to learn from it, and don't listen to the nonsense of the king."

"Observe my teachings?" Emperor Xia was so angry, he thought that belittling him to come here would work his muscles and bones, make him grow and mature, but he didn't expect to let himself go!

Xiao Rui saw that Emperor Xia was angry, so he stopped teasing Xiao Yuan, and quickly said, "Fifth Brother, don't hurry to plead guilty. You sent people to Mindong City to arrest Miss Qian, isn't it just to take a concubine? We have already heard about your feat. , the famous families and ladies from rich families in several prefectures in Fuzhou will not let go, how dare you say that you have not made any mistakes?"

"Who said that! Who said that taking concubines is for the sake of beauty?" Xiao Yuan said angrily.

Xiao Rui looked at him and said speechlessly: "You are still doing it for the money of the woman's family, right?"

"That's right! This is the point!" Xiao Yuan said solemnly.

"Presumptuous!" Emperor Xia was completely angry, and immediately scolded: "For the sake of other people's money, you, as a dignified prince, actually speak such words with confidence! Is the salary I gave you not enough for you to live on? What do you want so much money for?" ? Are you recruiting troops?"

Xiao Yuan shivered in fright, quickly knelt there, and said with a mournful voice: "I know I'm wrong, but I want to build roads, and I don't have enough money, so I can only do something wrong. Even if I have nine guts, I can't You will have the idea of ​​recruiting troops!"

"Eh..." Emperor Xia opened his mouth, and suddenly looked at Xiao Rui in blank dismay.

Get money to build roads?

Wait, did the two make a mistake?

Emperor Xia glared at Xiao Rui, after all, everything he knew was dictated by Xiao Rui.

Xiao Rui immediately asked: "Fifth brother, you said that you took a concubine to get money, and the purpose of getting money is to build roads?"

Xiao Yuan nodded, and said: "That's right! When I left the capital, I kept my father's teachings in mind and asked me to do everything myself. Therefore, when I first arrived in Fuzhou, I felt that the officialdom was in disrepair for a long time, which seriously affected Fuzhou's foreign affairs. This is why I wanted to build roads. But when I was the governor of Fuzhou, I realized how difficult it is to ask the household department for money, and I didn’t want to bother my father, because I only knew how troublesome government affairs were when I was in charge of the state government! "

"So I had no choice but to get money by myself. Although Fuzhou is remote, there are famous families in each prefecture. If so, I should get money from them. Unfortunately, I was wrong and took money from them. Money is harder than plucking wool from a sheep, and they will be distressed if they take out 100 taels, and let them build roads? It's delusional!"

Speaking of this, Xiao Yuan burst into tears.

Emperor Xia had already sat back in his seat, glared at Xiao Rui fiercely, and said, "Get up and talk!"

Xiao Rui was a little embarrassed, he couldn't blame himself, who would have thought that Xiao Yuan took a concubine to build roads, Nima, you are still not a man!

Xiao Yuan shook his head, and said: "Father taught me the right thing, I did wrong, I have no ability, I can only think of such bad ideas, which hurt the face of the royal family. He wants to build roads, so he accepts concubines widely. With the bond of marriage, his sons and ministers can ask for dowry ruthlessly. Up to now, they have collected 400 million taels, and they will soon be able to renovate the whole territory of Fuzhou. New!"

"These days, I have personally gone to the fields to inspect the harvest of the people. I am deeply impressed by the hard work of the people. Now that I have lost weight and tanned, it is all because I went outside to inspect the people's livelihood. Of course, there are also some reasons. It’s because the climate is unacceptable, and the appetite is bad!”

Xiao Yuan vividly portrays his diligence and serving the people very vividly.

"Fifth brother, is what you said true?" Xiao Rui couldn't help asking.

Emperor Xia also showed a suspicious look, yes, this is not like his own son, and that's not what the military officer beside him said, didn't he say that he likes to trample on the cultivated land when he has nothing to do?

Xiao Yuan said angrily: "King Xian, if you continue to slander me, don't blame me for disregarding brotherhood and wanting to sue you for the crime of framing in front of my father! If you don't believe me, you can follow me back to Fujian. Work out the details and process of road construction! The cost has been inspected! My father and son can stand the test!"

Emperor Xia said: "Okay, then I will briefly study it. How is Daxia's official road built?"

As expected, Xiao Yuan opened his mouth and came: "Father, most of the official roads in Daxia, first tidy up the ground, then tamp it with loess soil, and then burn the soil again with mellow soil and rice milk, so that there will be no insects and insects. Grass is growing, and secondly..."

Listening to Xiao Yuan's eloquence, Emperor Xia nodded approvingly.Next, Emperor Xia asked a few more questions about spring plowing and autumn harvest. Although Xiao Yuan was not very proficient in what he said, he knew it all.

This made Emperor Xia quite gratified, if he came to Fuzhou to sit on the table and be a happy prince, he would definitely not know these things.Therefore, Xiao Yuan proved his diligence.

"That's right, that's right. I wronged you just now. It's all the fault of King Xian. I'll let him apologize to you. It's him who slandered you. I'll punish him properly!" Emperor Xia got up and patted Xiao Yuan's face. Shoulder.

Tears welled up in Xiao Yuan's eyes instantly. What could be happier than being affirmed by his father after his hard work?

"I will always remember what my father said, deeply remember the five things in my heart, and never dare to forget!" Xiao Yuan said solemnly.

Xiao Rui rubbed his nose, and this time he really wronged Xiao Yuan, so he cupped his hands deeply and said, "Fifth brother, my brother wronged you, I am very sorry, please reprimand me!"

Xiao Yuan held up Xiao Rui's hands and said, "Seventh brother cares about me, as an elder brother, how can he be angry? You can't say that again."

Xiao Rui immediately looked deeply at Xiao Yuan, he really changed, this is a growth in life, if such Xiao Yuan can return to Beijing to fight for the crown prince, he will not be used as a spearman like before.

Emperor Xia was happy, so he asked Hai Dafu to prepare a table of delicacies, and the father and son had a good drink. Of course, on the wine table, Emperor Xia also asked Xiao Yuan to stop taking concubines. The idea is good, but the method is a bad idea. If he is a well-known family in Fuzhou, he, Xiao Yuan, can't even think of making any good achievements in Fuzhou.

At the same time, Emperor Xia also made a promise that he would return to the capital in a short time, and then he would arrange for the household department to allocate silver taels to repair the official roads in Fuzhou.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Emperor Xia was overwhelmed with alcohol and went to rest.

Only Xiao Rui and Xiao Yuan were left.
