Chapter 688
Everyone in the Xue family was indeed beaming, only Xue Hong didn't have any sense of reality.After dinner, he stayed in Xue Yi's study for a while, carefully reporting everything that happened on the battlefield.

After hearing this, Xue Yi sighed: "My son has worked hard. I just didn't expect that the Fourteenth Master would... Anyway, fortunately, Prince Yong can distinguish right from wrong and know that those trumped-up charges were imposed on you, otherwise this matter would be really difficult. Done."

Xue Hong took out the 5 taels of silver note: "This is the money the prince gave to our family, father, take it away."

Xue Yi waved his hand: "You go and give it to your brother yourself. It turned out that he got the money from various shops. He took care of how to get it into the account. Regardless of the money, the Xuanyi Building...can have money?" With such ability, this Jianghu sect is afraid that one day it will grow stronger, isn't it afraid..."

Xue Hong smiled wryly, could it be the king's land in the whole world, could it be the king's ministers on the shore of the land.The appearance of Xuanyilou is a Jianghu sect specially set up by him in order to cover up the inexplicable convenience brought to him by space and spiritual pets.He didn't intend to expand anything, he just hoped to help some poor people and recruit some people who were messing around in the rivers and lakes to disturb public order, just to do some good deeds.

So Xue Hong said: "Father, there is no need to worry, it's nothing. The owner of Xuanyi has a close relationship with me, and he is my child's confidant. He has no rebellion, let alone ambition. My child knows how to measure. In short, I will try not to rely on them again in the future. That's it. The prince also said that if the eighth elder brother makes any moves, he will do his best to protect us."

Xue Yi nodded: "Yes, I hope so, as long as we trust the prince. In the current situation, the prince has high expectations for you. It is because of your existence that the prince is able to trust Nian Gengyao." Not very caring, even in the booklet for the emperor, many people who praised Nian Gengyao were detained by the prince. Seeing what the prince means, it seems that he does not want to make Nian Gengyao too embarrassing."

According to the historical facts I knew before and the news from Xinxin, Nian Gengyao once again demonstrated his talent in logistical support during the campaign into Tibet this time. The officials also cooperated very well.

To be honest, during this war in the Qing Dynasty, the sergeants on the front line basically had what they lacked. The logistics support was comprehensive and not wasted. The materials delivered every time were just right. It is very difficult to achieve such perfection. It can be seen that Nian Gengyao is indeed very talented. Xue Hong sees this in his eyes and accepts it in his heart.

Xue Hong said: "Master Nian is indeed rare. Even if the prince withholds those discounts, our emperor is so shrewd that we may not be able to see Nian Gengyao's contribution. In short, the emperor has already said that next year the fourteenth Lord Xuan and the people who will enter Tibet Is it possible for a high-level official to enter Tibet to formally appreciate his merits? Then we will see what position the emperor wants for Nian Geng. However, no matter how high the rank of Nian Gengyao's official position, father, you have not seen how many important friends he made along the way. For the officials in positions, the Nian Party has been vaguely established, and it seems that they are working for the prince, but most of those officials are looking forward to Nian Gengyao. Now the prince and Nian Gengyao have a close relationship, and Nian's side concubine also He is very favored, but he doesn't see anything, if one day in the future, Nian Gengyao really touches the bottom line of the prince, it depends on whether the group of people under his hands stand up for Nian Gengyao or work for the prince. The former... I am afraid that Gengyao's end that year..."

Xue Yi took it seriously, nodded and said: "Now we can only read the songbook while riding a donkey. For us, we should be loyal to the prince. Since the prince is using you young generals to restrain Nian Gengyao, Then all of you must know in your hearts. Nian Gengyao is your model, you must be cautious in everything you do, follow the prince's wishes, and never be the second Nian Gengyao. Our Xue family wants to be rich and honorable. Xianda, you can't want the kind of Xianda who has his head tied to his belt."

"Yes, the child knows."

The father and son chatted for a long time. According to modern time, it was almost ten o'clock in the evening. Xue Hong just came out of Xue Yi's study and planned to go back to his room to rest.

This hour is already midnight for these ancient people.People in ancient times didn’t have much nightlife. Even the rich and noble families didn’t have banquets every day, and they played songs every night. Most of the time, they started to wash after six o’clock in the evening, and they would lie in bed and go to sleep after seven o’clock in the evening.Even the servants who work at home don't go to bed before nine o'clock.Therefore, Xue Hong's walk back was quiet, and he himself began to feel sleepy.

When he came to the door of his room, he saw that the light was still on, and thought that Zhuxi was waiting for him, but when he entered the door, he saw a beautiful woman beside the round table in his room.

Under the heavy shadow of the lamp, this beauty propped her temples with her hands, and sat at the table dozing off.She was still wearing the homely honey-colored padded jacket, the rose-purple two-color gold and silver mouse over-the-shoulder jacket, and the scallion-yellow satin cotton skirt.That pair of apricot-like beautiful eyes were gently closed, only a pair of eyelashes fluttered slightly like butterfly wings, a beautiful face suddenly lost a trace of aura, and the two pearl pendants by the ears followed the master's head bit by bit It shakes slightly, which looks cute.

Seeing this scene, Xue Hong laughed, walked to her bedroom, and put a fox fur cloak on the beauty's shoulders, who would have thought that this slight movement would wake her up, which shows that the beauty had not slept soundly just now. It was only after waiting for him for a long time that he was too sleepy to fall asleep like this.

"Huh...? Second brother, you are finally back!"

That beauty is of course Xue Hong's twin sister, Xue Baochai, they are all grown up now, and Baochai is the daughter of another family, rich and noble families have strict rules, so naturally she did not have dinner with Xue Hong today.It's just that the two of them were the closest since they were young. It took almost a year for Xue Hong to leave for an expedition, and it was so easy to go home. Baochai had to see him anyway, so this only cared about the friendship between his brother and sister, and did not care about it at all. He refused to listen to the advice of his servants and insisted on waiting for Xue Hong to come back again.

Unexpectedly, after waiting for too long, Xue Hong fell asleep before returning to herself.

Xue Hong continued to smile, and patted her head fondly: "You girl, since you have been waiting for me quietly, you don't know how to send me a letter quietly? You can tell me to come back earlier. Look at you, you are so sleepy. I can hardly keep my eyes open."
