Before Xu Xin finished speaking, Zhou Yi began to panic: "Master, please don't drive me away. I just want to learn from the old man, but I'm afraid that the old man won't accept me as an apprentice..."
"Don't be nervous, I just want to ask if you are interested in learning criminal law, arithmetic, official documents, etc. from the old man? The old man often praises your intelligence and wants to take you as an apprentice!"
Seeing Zhou Yi's nervous look, Xu Xin also made him laugh.
"Yes, yes! Of course the little one is willing!" Zhou Yi blushed with excitement.
"Also, do you want to learn martial arts together?" Xu Xin continued to ask.
Hearing this, Zhou Yi immediately knelt down and kowtowed: "As long as the master is willing to let the villain learn, the villain is willing! The villain wants to be like the master, both civil and military, so that he can repay the master's kindness!"
Xu Xin nodded in relief upon hearing his answer.
"Get up, if you study literature and martial arts from Mr. Daoyan, I will let the old drunk guide you well, and you can also learn some criminal investigation knowledge from him."
"Study hard so that you can protect your sister and yourself in the future."
After Zhou Yi finished listening, he looked at Xu Xin gratefully, and kowtowed three more times.
"Okay, let's go back to work!"
"Thank you sir!"
Zhou Yi left happily.
Just at this time, Huang Yaoshi came to look for Xu Xin and saw Zhou Yi walking by.
"That kid seems to have good qualifications."
Xu Xin looked up and saw Huang Yaoshi holding the jade flute, but the jade flute seemed to be a size smaller.
"I had foreseen it in the ghost market before, and I brought them back to the mansion after seeing their two brothers and sisters being miserable. Their conduct is still very likable." Xu Xin introduced proudly.
"Boy Xu, send this thing to my disciple and grandson." Huang Yaoshi ordered that he could not refuse.
Xu Xin pointed to Yu Xiao: "I said when did Xiaopang become obsessed with blowing flute? Didn't he see you and sister Yuyan and want to learn it on a whim?"
"Are you going or not!"
Xu Xin wryly smiled and said, "I said, senior Datong Guoshi... Even if I dare not stop you from entering and leaving the palace now! Also, you are not afraid that Xiaopang will play the music in disorder, and you will lose face on Peach Blossom Island? "
"That makes sense!"
Before the words finished, Huang Yaoshi had disappeared.
Only then did Xu Xin remember the greeting card in his hand, and he went to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, fearing that something was coming at him.
After dinner, Minister of Rites, led by Zhou Yi, came to the parlor.
Upon seeing Xu Xin, the Minister of Rites looked nervous, and hurriedly bowed to salute: "Master Xu."
Xu Xin looked at Erlang's legs, and smiled at the stiff Minister of Rites in front of him: "Master Shi, please sit down, this is the first time you have come to my house!"
During the conversation, Zhou Yi had already served hot tea.
Minister of the Ministry of Rites picked up the teacup and took a sip nervously: "Master Xu is an important minister in the court, am I afraid that others will say that you are forming a clique..."
"Tell me, what is your Ministry of Rites looking for from me?" Xu Xin cut to the chase, but in fact he was also curious about why he asked him.
The Minister of Rites cleared his throat: "Master Xu, you should take a look first, I'm afraid your heart can't take it."
The Minister of Rites took out a memorial from his arms, got up tremblingly and handed it to Xu Xin.
Xu Xin took a glance at Shixing: "Silla is planning to send the princess over to marry us? Haha, no way? Xiaopang is only so old now."
The Minister of Rites shook his head and sighed, mustered up the courage to gesture with his fingers: "My lord, you are looking down, look carefully."
With a "poof", Xu Xin spit out all the tea in his mouth.
"No, what does Silla mean? Throughout the ages, where has Fanbang sent a princess to make peace with the suzerain minister?"
Xu Xin questioned.
The Minister of Rites smiled helplessly and said: "Master Xu, we don't dare to bother you unless it is absolutely necessary. The princess of Silla is already on her way, and she may arrive in the capital in a few days."
"You mean, without my knowledge, I will marry a princess from Silla?" Xu Xin stared at the brochure in his hand with wide eyes.
"I said Master Xu, don't you still not see the clue?"
"What is your status now? You are among the three princes. Not only is the master of the current emperor, but also the first minister of the late emperor. Now even the queen mother trusts you. You are the youngest master of the primordial state in the world... ..."
"Your Majesty is still young, and it is impossible to become a marriage partner, so I can only work on you, using your current status and reputation to become their umbrella..."
Seeing that Xu Xin was still hesitant, the Minister of Rites could only resort to the method Xu Youzhen taught before.
"Master Xu, think about it, Silla has been our vassal state for hundreds of years, and every time a new king takes the throne, they will send the princess to be married. But at this time, what is the intention of sending the princess here?"
"That is, they have encountered a big threat and need someone to help him solve the trouble."
Then Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites spread out the map he was carrying with him.
"Your Excellency, look. Although Silla borders us, there are also tribes such as Balhae, Jurchen, and Khitan. If the cabinet guessed correctly, Silla should have received threats from them before making such a bad move."
The Minister of Rites pointed to the map.
"The three tribes of Jianzhou Jurchen, Haixi Jurchen, and Savage Jurchen in the northeast have now been merged, and the Khitan, Huns, and Tatar tribes in the north are also about to move. Recently, they have invaded our borders many times."
"So, in order to protect itself, Silla can only choose one of the three families of Jurchen, Bohai, and us to rely on. Once they choose Jurchen, then there may be a possibility of war on the borders of the Northeast, Datong and Guyuan. "
Xu Xin fell silent after listening to the analysis of the Minister of Rites.
Chapter 147 Absolutely Talented After a long silence, Xu Xin said, "According to what you guys mean, are you sacrificing the hue of this Commander?"
"Actually, you can refuse, my lord. After all, you can't take things lightly. Cough, but, we may have to start recruiting soldiers, in case something goes wrong..." Minister of Rites did not dare to look at Xu Xin, bowed his head and said.
"My lord, according to the gossip, the princess of Silla who came to marry her is a stunning beauty, naturally charming, and she is actually very suitable for you, my lord..." The Minister of Rites continued to speak awkwardly.
Xu Xin glared at him and let out a long sigh: "Is this commander a womanizer in your eyes? What a natural obsession, now that Xiaopang has just ascended the throne, it is not the time to launch a war at all, otherwise the exchange market will not be opened ..."
"That bastard Xu Youzhen must have given you the idea! Otherwise, he wouldn't even have brought the map!"
At this time, the Minister of Rites showed a sly smile: "Master Xu is really good at predicting things!"
Xu Xin supported his forehead and waved his hand: "I see, you go back and tell that guy, and say I agree."
Upon hearing the words, the Minister of the Ministry of Rites happily bowed his thanks and said goodbye, and left in one go.
Xu Xin sat alone in the living room for a long time.
When I brought back Guo Xiang, Wang Yuyan and Mu Qing were already jealous. Now I have to bring back another Princess of Silla. I don’t know what will happen. There is also Huang Laoxie who is controlled by his granddaughter...
Just thinking about it gives me a headache.
It seems that I can only ask Dao Yan for help to see if there is any proper way to solve this matter.
Daoyan has been treated by Hu Qingniu, and he insisted on doing rehabilitation exercises, and he has recovered without having a headache.
As soon as he entered the door, he saw Dao Yan eating happily.
"Mr., join me for a drink." After Xu Xin sat down, he got a glass of wine and drank it alone.
"My lord, have you encountered any problems?" Dao Yan put down the bowls and chopsticks in his hand, and asked with concern.
Xu Xin sighed: "It's really difficult. If I don't handle it properly, I feel that my life will be in danger!"
"What is so serious!" Dao Yan was also very nervous when he heard it. It must be very important to make even masters in the Yuanshen realm feel dangerous!
Afterwards, Xu Xin continued to drink, expressed his worries, and handed the booklet of marriage marriage and the map brought by Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites to Dao Yan for viewing.
"Do you think I will kill some of them!" Xu Xin asked worriedly.
"Hahaha!" Dao Yan laughed loudly regardless of Xu Xin's face.
"My lord, it seems that we will have another mistress in Xu's residence."
"I'm so anxious, old man, you're still making fun of me." Xu Xin said helplessly.
"My lord, actually doing this is the best choice at the moment. As long as you marry Princess Silla, you can save our countless soldiers. Why not do it?"
"Besides, judging from the current situation, Silla is the partner we must fight for. You see, if they unite with the three Jurchen tribes, the Khitan, and the Huns, they will encircle our borders. .”
"My lord, do you have the confidence to break through their siege and defeat them? And how much strength do you think you need to resist?"
When Xu Xin heard it, he was more than half sober: "I'm afraid it will take countless soldiers to do it..."
"If the marriage is successful, then Silla will become a sharp sword behind the Jurchen Tripartite, and Silla can cooperate with us to attack the Jurchen at any trouble."
"You are looking at the Khitan and the Xiongnu. We only need to strictly control the trade to restrict their development, and with their temperament, once resources are insufficient, they can only make up for it through plunder."
"Datong and Guyuan are tightly guarded, they can't get in, they can only fight each other, or attack the Jurchen Tripartite!" Dao Yan said his analysis with a smile.
Xu Xin had to admire Dao Yan's unique vision. In an instant, he had already seen the meaning of the cabinet, and his thinking was even more long-term.
"So you mean that I have to sacrifice my appearance?" Xu Xin gave up struggling, and jokingly said to Dao Yan.
Dao Yan filled the two wine glasses: "My lord doesn't want it, it's cheap and you're so good! The princess of Silla's marriage this time is coveted by every tribe in the north. To put it in more vulgar terms, even if you get married, you will wake up with laughter in your dreams. "
After clinking glasses and taking a sip of wine, Dao Yan continued to add: "I heard that Princess Silla is naturally charming and has the secret skills of the clan, which can help practitioners improve their cultivation. If she was born in a small tribe, she might end up like a little purple girl." It's over."
Xu Xin also clinked glasses: "So old man, you mean that Silla's letting her come to marry her is a kind of protection for her and the royal family of Silla?"
"Didn't your lord understand it yourself, and come to drink with me. If the Silla royal family didn't send her here, one day it would bring a devastating disaster to the royal family."
After Dao Yan's enlightenment, Xu Xin finally figured it out.
The affectionate Silla royal family used Xu Xin as a spearman, not only got Xu Xin's high position and weight, but also a son-in-law who possessed peerless martial arts; he also found an unparalleled guard for his daughter; finally, he even threatened himself The Jurchen Tripartites dismounted one by one.
"It seems that I can only pray to the gods and pray to the Buddha and they are more gentle! Old man, I'm going first..." Xu Xin drank the last sip of wine, and resolutely returned to the apse.
As soon as the front foot stepped into the apse, he felt a mournful murderous aura rushing towards him.
I saw Wang Yuyan, Dai Qisi, Mu Qing and Guo Xiang sitting in a row, looking at him expressionlessly.
Xu Xin's body hunched all of a sudden, and bursts of cold air rushed straight to his forehead.
Looking back, before I entered the door, they had been waiting to greet me at the door, but now they were all sitting there without moving.
After a while of silence, Xu Xin stammered and asked, "You...you are all here, I... still want to find you..."
Then tiptoe and sat opposite them.
"Stand up!" Wang Yuyan slammed the table down, ordering that she couldn't refuse.
Xu Xin immediately popped up with a "swish".
"Brother Xu! Tell us honestly, are you hiding anything from us!" Guo Xiang stared at Xu Xin.
Mu Qing added on the sidelines: "Just now I saw the Minister of Rites coming!"
Seeing that Xu Xin couldn't hide it anymore, he originally wanted to make mental preparations.
"Indeed... there is indeed a big event... Just now the Minister of Rites came to tell me that Silla sent a princess to make a marriage."
"Who do you want to make peace with?" The four asked at the same time, and even Dai Qisi, who had kept her head down all the time, also spoke.
Xu Xin showed a miserable look, and pointed to himself: "He came to see me for a kiss..."
Mu Qing also patted the table at this time, and asked sternly, "What do you think!"
"What can I do, the imperial court's order, a loyal minister like me must firmly obey, sacrifice the ego, in exchange for the peace of the common people..." Xu Xin tried hard to squeeze out tears to win sympathy.
Unexpectedly, after struggling in her heart for a long time, Dai Qisi slammed down the table and shouted: "Master Xu! Your acting is so exaggerated!"
Xu Xin had never seen Dai Qisi, who was as gentle as water, get angry, and she was so frightened that she fell to the ground.
At this time, the four women giggled.
"I just said it's fun to scare him!" Guo Xiang smiled the happiest.
Wang Yuyan came over and helped Xu Xin up: "Okay, we know the reason. We just discussed it and accepted Princess Silla together."
"I didn't expect someone else to have the same experience as me...My lord, it was Sister Xiang'er who called me just now..." Dai Qisi also came over to help Xu Xin up.
Mu Qing also came over, patted the dust on Xu Xin's buttocks, and pulled the chair to let him sit down: "Let's talk about it first, after she comes, I have to do the smallest one in order, I don't care what she is identity!"
Xu Xin held the hands of the three of them tightly, and Guo Xiang also stretched out his hand before they were moved.
Xu Xin looked at them suspiciously: "How did you know about this?"
The three of them looked at Guo Xiang at the same time.
"The disciples of the Beggar Gang have already received the news that many people from all corners of the world are rushing to the capital because they know that a talented Silla princess is coming to the capital."
