Unparalleled Concubine

The Jing'an Marquis Mansion, which is already comparable to the Ye family's Zhong family, is the strong support of His Royal Highness the Prince in the army.

Xie Jing was silent for a while, and finally bowed his head deeply to Queen Xie,

Chapter 804

In Weiyang Palace, the emperor sat on the main seat, quietly looking at Xie Jing who would be in front of him.

The Son of Heaven, who hadn't slept much for several days, finally had a good night's sleep yesterday. At this time, the Son of Heaven looked a little better, and he looked no different from a normal person. He said slowly: "Speak, Li Xin What did you do in the Southwest?"

Before Emperor Taikang ascended the throne, the Shanyin Xie family was just an ordinary scholarly family in the south of the Yangtze River. It cannot be said that it is a small family, but it definitely cannot be regarded as a powerful family. After Emperor Taikang ascended the throne, he has been deliberately growing the mountain The Yin Xie family, that is, the power of the descendant clan, in the first few years, he even took Xie Jing, his brother-in-law, with him and personally instructed him on what to do in the court.

The two are still very familiar.

Xie Jing knelt on the ground, bowed his head and said: "Return to Your Majesty, after I entered the southwest, I have been kept by Hanzhou..."

He held back the two "rebels", bowed his head and said: "I have been under house arrest by Muying of Hanzhou in a guild hall in Jincheng, and I only saw Muying once from the beginning to the end. Rumor has it that the matters in the Southwest have been settled, and I can return to the capital, and it is useless to spend time in the Southwest if I want to write, so I came back."

The emperor was expressionless.

"What I'm asking is, have you seen Li Xin in the southwest, and what is he doing?"

Xie Jing knelt on the ground and bowed his head deeply.

"Go back to Your Majesty, I have seen Lord Li Hou."

"When I came back from Jincheng, I heard that Marquis Li was also in Jincheng, so I went to see Marquis Li."

Speaking of this, he paused for a moment, thinking of what Empress Xie said yesterday, so he gritted his teeth and continued: "Mr. Li was in a garden at the time, and there were seven or eight Hanzhou troops guarding the gate of the garden. , Master Li was alone in the garden, and did not see Mu Ying from the Hanzhou Army."

The emperor frowned and said, "What is he doing?"

"exist……"

"drinking tea."

Xie Jing spoke slowly: "Master Li also invited me to drink a cup of tea, and told me that he still has some things to do in the southwest, and it will take a while."

Xie Jing's words can be said to be true, but if the same thing is said in a different context, the result will be quite different. Xie Jing said that, it can be said that he is speaking for Li Xin.

The emperor snorted.

"Yeah, he does have things to do in the southwest."

He casually threw a memo at his hand in front of Xie Jing, and said coldly: "Li Xin's memorandum has already returned to the capital before you. time processing."

Xie Jing took the memorial carefully, opened it and read it briefly.

The content of the memorial is very simple. The Hanzhou Army in the Southwest has clearly agreed to surrender to the Jin Dynasty. However, the remnants of the Pingnan Army are still haunted and there are signs of resurgence. They are frequently active in the Southwest. Li Xin needs to stay in the Southwest for a period of time. , After the remnants of the Pingnan Army were completely subdued, they left for Beijing.

This statement is well-founded. After all, the Pingnan Army has indeed been active in the southwest in the past few months, and the imperial court has already received the news.

The Son of Heaven sat on the throne and said with a sneer, "He's not working in the Southwest, he's clearly avoiding me, he dare not come back to the capital!"

A few months ago, when Li Xin was in the capital, he told the emperor that he could quell the turmoil in the southwest by going to the southwest. disappear into the invisible.

From this point of view, he did not deceive the emperor.

However, it is true that he does not want to return to the capital.

The Son of Heaven has lost a lot of energy in the past two years, after talking with Xie Jing, he felt a little tired, he waved his hand, and said calmly: "I know everything you said, you go down first. "

Xie Jing got up slowly and was about to leave when he heard the voice of the Son of Heaven again.

"You have never traveled far, and you have heard that your sister misses you these days. Now that you are back, let's go to her place to have a look."

Xie Jing quickly lowered his head: "I'm going now."

After taking a few steps back, he opened his mouth to say something, but in the end he didn't speak.

The emperor seemed to see what he was thinking, and the corner of his mouth curled into an arc.

"You want to go back to Qianniuwei's errand?"

Xie Jing was stunned, and quickly lowered his head: "Return to Your Majesty, Qian Niuwei and His Majesty will be in the army, everything depends on His Majesty's arrangements, I dare not expect extravagant expectations."

The emperor waved his hand impatiently.

"Go ahead, after seeing your sister, go home and rest for a few days, then report to Qianniuwei."

Xie Jing was overjoyed, and immediately bowed his head and said: "Minister... Thank you Your Majesty."

With that said, he slowly bowed his head and left.

The emperor looked at his leaving figure, reached out and rubbed his aching temples, and muttered to himself.

"The Xie family's foundation is too weak, so weak that I can't help it even if I want to."

After saying this, Emperor Taikang lay down on the dragon couch half-way, and slowly closed his eyes to rest.

A scholarly family has no foundation in the court and the opposition. Even if the emperor wants to help them to a high place soon, it will not work. If the emperor Taikang still has ten or twenty years, thank you, Xie Dai. Under his care, a group of people can become second- and third-rank bigwigs without any accidents, but they can't do it now.

Even if the emperor forcibly appoints them officials, they may not be able to do what they should do in that position.

And the people below will not recognize it.

The most precious thing in this world is time.

In the tall palace walls, the Ninth Five-Year Supreme of the Great Jin Dynasty, under the dual pressure of body and mind, was already somewhat haggard.

On the other side, Li Xin, who was thousands of miles away, received a letter from Gusu.

The letter was sent by a boy whose employment cost ten coppers.

In the end, the letter got into the hands of Chen Shiliu, who then delivered it to Li Xin.

At this moment, Li Xin was playing chess with Zhao Jia in the garden. After receiving the letter, he opened it and glanced at it. A playful smile appeared on the face of Lord Jing'an.

He waved the letter in his hand to Zhao Jia in front of him, and said with a smile: "Brother You An, guess who sent this letter?"

Zhao Jia unhurriedly ate one of Li Xin's pawns, and asked, "Where did you send it?"

Li Xin put the unsigned envelope in front of Zhao Jia, with a few words written on the envelope.

"The Marquis of Jing'an will give you his blessing."

The inscription below is not the name, but the word "Gusu".

Zhao Jia stretched out his hand to hold the envelope in his hand, looked back and forth, and said with some doubts: "Could it be... that person?"
