Unparalleled Concubine

   Chapter 871 Homecoming

Li Xin entered the capital at the end of the seventeenth year of Chengde and almost died in the heavy snow, but his real fortune came at the end of the eighteenth year of Chengde. After his fortune, that is, the first year of Taikang, Li Xin After returning home, he returned to his hometown of Yongzhou to build a tomb for his old mother for a few months.

   Now is the spring and summer of the first year of Yuanzhao, and it is exactly ten years since Li Xin returned to his hometown to build a grave for his mother.

  The Great Jin ruled the world with filial piety. Li Xin wrote a letter to tell the old man to return to his hometown at this time. Most of the court would not agree.

   Therefore, after this memorial was published, the faces of the chief ministers at the Shangshu Desk were not very good-looking.

   Zuo Pushe Shen Kuan, still a little angry.

   "Brother Gongyang has already written to his official post, and Mingzhou has also been dismissed from the prime minister. He does not work at the Shangshutai. My Shangshutai has taken such a big step back. He Li Xin is still unwilling to give up, and still wants to write a letter to threaten the court!"

Although Gongyangshu has already handed over the letter to the old man, firstly, the court needs time to reply, and secondly, as the decree of Zhongshu, he also has a lot of things to hand over, so he is still discussing matters at the Shangshutai at this time. Shaking his head.

"Shen Xiang is a little extreme. If I remember correctly, in the first year of Taikang, the Marquis of Jing'an did return to his hometown to repair his mother's grave, and he stayed in his hometown for more than half a year before returning to Beijing. It was the most critical time in the capital, and the fact that the Marquis of Jingan returned to his hometown to repair the grave at that time showed his pure filial piety, and now it is exactly ten years."

   Speaking of this, Gong Yang said slowly: "In these years, the Marquis of Jing'an has hardly ever returned to his hometown. He only returns to his hometown once every ten years. It is a bit harsh for Shen Xiang to say such things."

   "Besides, Lord Li has never resigned from office, let alone threatened the court."

  Shen Kuan bowed his hands to Gong Yangshu and said with a wry smile, "This is what Li Changan is good at, and the timing is just right."

The old sheep went through four dynasties and became the Zaifu of three dynasties, and he frowned slightly when he heard the words: "Shen Prime Minister is better to be cautious, and hand over the memorial letter of Li Houye to the Weiyang Palace, and leave it to His Majesty for decision. "

   This kind of thing, even if the Shangshutai is in power now, they dare not make a decision easily, so they can only send Li Xin's memorial to the Weiyang Palace, and hand it over to the emperor to decide.

   Emperor Yuanzhao frowned for a long time after reading the memorial, and finally had Li Xin invited to the palace.

  In the Weiyang Palace, the emperor bowed his hands to Li Xin and smiled bitterly: "Teacher, but because of what happened a few days ago, is there still anger in your heart?"

Li Xin stood with his hands down, shook his head when he heard the words, and said, "Your Majesty, I have stated in the memorial that I have not returned to my hometown for ten years since I returned to my hometown to repair her mother's grave ten years ago. After ten years, I have a son again, so I should go back to my hometown and show my grandson to my mother."

The emperor took Li Xin, sat down on the chair, and said softly: "I can also take care of the teacher's filial piety, but soon after I ascended the throne, there are still many places that need the teacher's support and guidance. If the teacher is not in the capital, I always feel in my heart. Not very solid."

   The young emperor looked up at Li Xin, gritted his teeth and said, "Can the teacher... suspend returning home and stay in the capital to help me?"

  Li Xin's face was calm, looking at the emperor with a slight smile.

"Your Majesty, this minister is from a grass-roots background. In terms of academic knowledge and vision, it is not much inferior to the Hanlin people, and there are not many people who can teach Your Majesty. If there is any use in staying in the capital, at most it can help His Majesty take care of the right camp of the forbidden army. Defend the capital."

"This minister has also thought about this. He Song, the deputy general of the right camp of the forbidden army, has been in the right camp of the forbidden army for many years. If the minister does not go to the main camp of the right camp, he can also take care of the right camp in an orderly manner. Whether the minister is in the capital or not, it is the same. of."

   "If your Majesty is still worried, you can ask the Grand Governor's Office to send a few generals to supervise He Song, so that there will be no more problems."

   "As for the word "support", it's even more difficult to say."

  Li Xin bowed his head slightly and said, "This minister is not an assistant minister and does not participate in political affairs. He Song has been taking care of the right battalion of the Forbidden Army, and the minister of the Ministry of War has also resigned. He is only an idler in the capital and cannot help His Majesty anything."

   "I ask Your Majesty to allow me to return to my hometown to worship my mother because I have been loyal to the country for ten years and have not returned to my hometown."

   Speaking of which, there is no way anyone can keep Li Xin on a moral level.

In fact, although Li Xin left the capital this time, on the one hand, it was for Lin Hu's business, but on the other hand, he did indeed want to go home to visit his mother's grave. The last time he returned to Yongzhou was in the first year of Taikang, he spent a whole Haven't returned home for ten years.

   Emperor Yuanzhao opened his mouth, and the words he held back came to his lips, but he couldn't say anything.

   He finally sighed and said, "Then... when will the teacher come back?"

The Marquis of Jing'an whispered: "In recent days, the court has been chaotic and I am a little tired. It is estimated that I will rest in my hometown for a few months. One is to accompany my mother, and the other is to teach the two children at home and learn Yongzhou. talk."

   Mrs. Li laughed at himself: "The family has a son and a daughter, all of whom were born in the capital. There are no Yongzhou people in the Hou residence, and they don't even speak a word of Yongzhou dialect."

   Yuan Zhao Tianzi stopped talking.

   In the end, the young emperor gritted his teeth.

   "Teacher, the matter of the student's personal administration... can be discussed again..."

  The Son of Heaven is afraid.

  My own teacher, whether he is in charge of the Imperial Army or the Ministry of War, as long as he can stay in the capital, then he can say anything, but if he is not in the capital, it will be a big problem.

   He was the prince of the Taikang Dynasty. He was trained as a prince since he was a child. In the eighth year of Taikang, Pei Jin led troops to attack the Hanzhou Prefecture, and he returned after a disastrous defeat.

   Besides, before the funeral, the late emperor had talked with him for a long time, and he must have talked to him about the southwest.

   The original words of the late emperor to Emperor Yuan Zhao were to try not to let Li Xin leave the capital.

When Li Xin heard the words, he was stunned for a while, and then he laughed: "Your Majesty has misunderstood, the minister is not angry with the court because of the events of the past few days, but he really should go back to his hometown, otherwise not only will he feel bad, but the parents and elders should also say The minister forgot."

   "Don't worry, Your Majesty, the previous issue of the banning army transfer order has passed. Your Majesty handled it very well, and I have no dissatisfaction with the court."

   Emperor Yuan Zhao let out a long sigh.

   "Teacher, if you leave, the students will be alone in the capital. They will be somewhat afraid."

   "Don't be afraid of them."

Li Xin squinted his eyes and said with a smile: "On the side of the inner guard, His Majesty can control it now. As for Qianniu Guard and Yulin Guard, they are both in the hands of the descendants, and they are all with your Majesty. If you are not honest in the capital. , or if you can't get along with Your Majesty, His Majesty directly uses the three imperial guards to kill people, you can't stand up if you don't kill people."

   "In the early years, the late emperor also killed a lot of people before he took the throne."

   Emperor Yuanzhao lowered his head and said, "I wrote down the teacher's teaching."

   He looked up at Li Xin.

   "Are aunt and teacher going together?"

  Li Xin nodded: "The dog is still young and can't do without his mother, so we can only go back together."

  The emperor asked again: "When will the teacher leave?"

   "If the court allows it, pack some things tomorrow and leave early the day after tomorrow."

   The emperor sighed again.

   "When the time comes, I will send you a gift to the teacher."
