Go back to ancient times to be a royal merchant

Sometimes, you can't think of things as bad as they may be good but not bad.The last time he went to the court years ago, after the ministers bowed down, the emperor did not tell the ministers to stand down, but directly asked the entourage around him to read the will. The decree was very long, and it took half an hour for the entourage to read it. The ministers were terrified when they heard this, some trembled with guilt, and of course some secretly gloated in their hearts, and some people didn't know what kind of thoughts they had, their heads were lowered and they didn't know what they were thinking.

"Do you have something else to play?" the emperor asked lightly. Ever since the sage was imprisoned, he has not been pleased in the court. Now he wants to see if anyone dares to jump out and say that Mr. sage is not allowed to be imprisoned. .During this period of time, the Anti-Corruption Factory and the Metropolitan Procuratorate have found a lot of good things. In terms of purpose, it is not all the crimes.

How could the kneeling minister dare to say what he was going to say? He didn't expect to lose his life, and it wasn't just one person's life. Maybe the whole family's life would be lost.

Seeing the ministers who were all shut up, the emperor was very satisfied, and once again stopped the annual banquet in the palace. The ministers repeatedly praised the emperor for his lofty sentiments for the country and the people. The emperor was very happy after being praised, but he also knew that these people It is said that it is flattering or it comes from the heart.

After the court was over, all the civil servants gathered around Mr. Wang, opening their mouths to speak, but they didn't know how to speak.Mr. Wang glanced at the people around him lightly, and stepped forward. These people still didn't understand the situation of the court. Now it's not like before. What the emperor wants is someone who can do practical things, not superficially praising people every day. , Delineate the courtiers of their own interests.Shaking his head, Mr. Wang's steps to leave are even greater. The Metropolitan Procuratorate still has a lot of work to do. How can there be time to waste eloquence with these people?

Wang Xiujin heard what the old general said at dinner that night. He raised his eyebrows and sighed silently in his heart. The sages and gentlemen are afraid that no one will be able to save their lives. What did they think? No matter what, I have to put on a posture, it's good now, my reputation is bad, let alone my own life, I'm afraid even the lives of my family members can't be saved.You have to do what you can to clamor or something. It is really not smart to twist the thigh of a strong man with a child's arm.

After the family had dinner, Wang Xiujin and Li Sushan went out together to give new year gifts to some relatives. When they returned to the mansion, they saw a large carriage parked in front of the mansion. The servants were busy moving things down, but the housekeeper was not there. , the two stepped forward, and the servant stopped carrying things and saluted the two, "Young Master, Young Master Jin."

"Which one brought the New Year gift?" Li Sushan glanced at the carriage filled with a lot of things.

"If you go back to the young master, the new master of the second master's family has returned." The servant bowed and reported.

"Second uncle's new..." Wang Xiujin paused, "What should we call? Uncle? Or..." Aunt?Is it not good to be called aunt? It's a bit humiliating to the other party.

"Call uncle." Li Sushan took Wang Xiujin's hand and walked into the inner yard. People should go to the old man's yard, and they live next to the old man's yard. It would be bad if they didn't visit the elders.

There are a lot of people in the old man's yard, big and small. The two came here just to salute, and then sat behind father and little father. Uncle Min is the other half of the second uncle. This time he came back to Beijing to meet his elders. The second is to enter the family tree during the Chinese New Year, and the third is to take the children to Qiucheng.

The old man has no objection to the first two matters, but the old man only wants to think about the matter of taking the child to Qiucheng.Uncle Min didn't say much, and accompanied the old man to talk about Qiucheng's situation, and then he was led to the second child's yard by his servants.After the people left, the old man looked at the others, "Let's all go away!"

Wang Xiujin looked at Li Sushan, why did he feel so unreliable, here is a person who claims to be the other half of the second uncle, he wonders if the Li family has seen what Uncle Min looks like, but if his family has not But, is it not good to just let people in like this? "Have you met Uncle Min before?"

"Yes." Li Sushan didn't know why Wang Xiujin asked this suddenly, but he answered truthfully. "What's wrong?"

Wang Xiujin heaved a sigh of relief, he probably watched too many conspiracy dramas in his previous life. "It's okay, just ask casually, accompany me back to Wang's house tomorrow?"

"Well, is everything ready? Is there anything else that needs to be added?" The two had already reached the door, and Li Sushan pushed the door in. The room had already been attracted by earth dragons, and it was very warm.While the two were talking, they wanted to change their coats, and the servants brought warm water for washing.

"Although the younger brothers of the second uncle's family are already in their teens, there were still too many people in Qiucheng in the past, and it would be difficult to return to Beijing after entering the barracks from there." Wang Xiujin felt that he didn't like his family very much. Separate, however, some things are not decided according to their own preferences.If you want to say how reluctant he is, in fact he doesn't. Let the old man worry about this matter!As a junior, he couldn't get in the way.

"The sons of the Li family don't only have to enter the military camp in the capital." Li Sushan raised his eyebrows, walked to Wang Xiujin's side, and then stretched out his arms to hug him, "If you have time to worry about them, it's better to think more about being a husband."

"..." What is a husband? Isn't it that the force value is higher than him, so he is called a husband, do you really think he can't fight back?

Whether Wang Xiujin succeeded in counterattacking, only the husband and wife knew, but judging from the way Wang Xiujin would secretly rub his waist while walking, it should have been unsuccessful.After breakfast, the two went to Wang's house with their things.

In the courtyard of Wang's family, Wang Zhiyuan, with his little hands behind his back, accompanied his grandmother in a serious manner, listening to the butler reading the list of New Year's gifts for each family.When Wang Xiujin and Li Sushan came in, they saw Wang Zhiyuan frowning slightly, looking very distressed.

"What happened to Zhiyuan?" Wang Xiujin looked at his elder nephew very interestingly.

"The matter of giving New Year's gifts is very troublesome." After Wang Zhiyuan finished speaking, he still sighed in a dignified manner, "I can't give the same ones. There are different kinds of gifts depending on how close they are. It's so difficult."

"Pfft." Wang Xiujin was amused by his eldest nephew's appearance, and laughed out of a very unlovely manner.Li Sushan looked at Wang Xiujin with a very gentle look.

Mrs. Wang, who was standing by the side, looked at the two of them, and felt relieved after seeing the emotion in Li Sushan's eyes.Ever since her son entered the General's Mansion, she has always been worried. Even if her son said that he was doing well in the Li family every time he came back, she was still worried. "Xiu Jin, how can you make fun of my nephew like this?"

"Zhiyuan! This matter needs to be done slowly, and there is no need to rush to do it well." Wang Xiujin patted his nephew on the shoulder. He knew that his nephew had always regarded the eldest son and grandson of the Wang family as his own responsibility, and he really wanted to take over this burden, but he didn't think so. Nephew needs to take up this responsibility early on. He is only old now, so there is no need to push himself so hard.

"Got it, uncle." Wang Zhiyuan nodded.

Wang Xiujin sighed silently in his heart that the children of the big family are not easy to do, "Mother, what do you have for lunch?" He couldn't stop his nephew's behavior in order to become the pillar of the Wang family, but he didn't want to see the seedlings encourage it.

"I have asked Sister Liu to prepare your favorite dishes." Mrs. Wang asked the housekeeper to do her own work, and then called her eldest grandson to sit beside her. Let's have a New Year's meal together."

Wang Xiujin nodded, "Where is Zhizhuo?"

"Going out with your father." Mrs. Wang mentioned the matter of the master taking the second grandson to the yamen, and she became angry, "Tell me, can he take care of taking the child to the yamen?"

"Mother, father is not someone who is not successful, so he won't ignore Zhizhuo." Although he was also very curious why father brought his second nephew to the yamen.Wang Xiujin accompanied his mother to talk about the family, talked about the eldest brother, and mentioned the eldest sister.Speaking of Eldest Sister, Wang Xiujin couldn't help feeling a little worried. Eldest Sister and her brother-in-law took their children to accompany Mrs. Song to the border to visit Mr. Song. The border is so cold, and I don't know if Eldest Sister can bear it.

"Your eldest sister has never experienced hardship since she was a child. Even when she returned to her hometown, you were there to protect her. I am really worried about going to the border." Mrs. Wang sighed, but the married daughter has already crowned her daughter. With the Song surname, she can't stop her daughter from going to the border.

"Eldest sister is not a child, she knows how to take care of herself, and besides, she has a brother-in-law, so she can't bear to be wronged." Although he was also worried, he couldn't show it in front of his mother.

Talking and talking about homework, it was time for lunch in a short while, the long table was set up, and the dishes were delivered one by one. Wang Zhizhuo was also escorted back to the mansion by his servants, and when he saw his uncle, he immediately stepped forward to salute. "If you know that my uncle will come today, my nephew must wait for my uncle at home."

"I'm very happy if you have this kind of heart, go wash up and come over to eat." Wang Xiujin nodded Zhizhuo's small nose.Wang Xiujin seems to be equally good to the three nephews, but he still has a preference for Zhizhuo. Zhiyuan is the eldest son and grandson, and he is loved by his grandparents. In the middle, he is the only one who favors them, but he is usually busy, so no matter how partial he is, his preference is limited. In a family with many children, the children in the middle are not very popular and are easily ignored by the elders.

Li Sushan sat aside and watched the interaction between Wang Xiujin and Zhizhuo. Even though Wang Xiujin said many times that he likes children but doesn't like raising children, and finds it troublesome to raise children, he still feels that Wang Xiujin loves children from the bottom of his heart. Two days ago, my grandfather mentioned that there were several children suitable for adoption from the clan relatives, and one of them was the most suitable. The child's mother passed away during childbirth, and the child's father took the property to be a door-to-door son-in-law, and the child was thrown in the In the ditch at the head of the village, if someone hadn't just passed by, the child would have died of cold, and now he is being raised at the village chief's house.The grandfather meant that the two of them would go to see the ancestors in the name of worshiping their ancestors, and if they closed their eyes, they would bring them back and raise them.
