A world of glory

The second wife seemed to be moved, she just smiled and said: "No wonder you want me to prepare the gift, so it's for this matter, could it be that the favor of our two houses has become weak?"

Qin Xin hurriedly said: "Apart from that mansion, what sacred favors are there in our mansion? I know my own weight. I can be a leisurely official in Beijing. If I am sent to other places, I will be a county magistrate or something. , but I don’t have that ability, maybe I can take the blame for someone else, and I don’t know anything. I thought, I don’t have much promise in this life, I can’t even study and practice martial arts, but I can pave the way for my children and make some friends. Favors are always acceptable, and I don't keep my voice low. In short, it's enough to save face and entrust some things, so that people can take care of them. In the future, if there is something wrong with our son or daughter, we don't have to ask anyone."

The second wife gave a "puchi" laugh, and said: "Whoever gave birth to your son thought it was a good idea, where did you get into some romantic debts, and what kind of enemies did you meet, just use words to coax me."

Qin Xin grabbed the second wife and said with a smile: "Besides you, who am I going to have a baby with? I'm so busy, it's serious to have a younger brother for Luan'er." Then, he hugged the second wife and went to the couch Up and down, only the second wife laughed and said: "What's serious, I think it's not serious." The voice gradually weakened, so I won't mention it here for the time being.

But Qin Yi changed his clothes and was lying on the couch reading a book, but Peiyu came into the room with a lacquer post, handed it to Qin Yi, and said with a sweet smile: "It's so strange today, someone sent a few boxes of gold and jade The silk and satin, but only a name, not even a word, I am not that kind of god who can pinch and count, so I have to bring it to the young master for details, so that I can get the details."

Qin Yi turned his head with a slight smile, his eyes paused for a moment, and he only said, "What's the name, let me see and talk about it."

After receiving the post, he unfolded it, his complexion sank suddenly, he was silent for a moment, and smiled again: "Since it's delivered, I just accept it, it's just a gift from an acquaintance, and I won't have much contact with you in the future. Make a note of the name of the Li family, and return it if you encounter it in the future.”

Peiyu smiled, and said, "It's weird that I'm unfamiliar with the name, so that's why." He brought over another bowl of bird's nest porridge, and said with a smile, "The dinner is ready, but let the girl pass them in."

Qin Yi put down the scroll, nodded and smiled, "Order someone to pass it in."

Before he could speak, Qin Yi frowned when he suddenly heard someone yelling outside. Before he could speak, Lan Yue went out.Just listening to Lanyue reprimanding loudly at first, and then lowering it down again, it was vague and couldn't be heard clearly.

Nong Yun was packing up his books, he just took a look outside, then opened the cabinet again, took out a carved lacquer box that had been scented, and put the books in.

As soon as I put the book into the box, I saw Lan Yue hurried into the house, and said in a hurry: "I don't know what's wrong with these two houses. The matter of Miss Shuang hasn't come to light yet, but news has just spread outside." , Master Hou was impeached today by the censor, and every word and every sentence is well-founded, I am afraid it is another incident?"

When Qin Yi heard this, he was taken aback, but he didn't show it on his face, and asked thoughtfully: "What did the book say? Has father come back yet?"

Lanyue hurriedly said: "Master Hou hasn't come back yet. In the memorials of the imperial history, one is rumored about Master Hou's being in Yunzhou, saying that Master Hou is greedy for ink and power. The other is To be honest, participating in the Marquis' unrest is not good for suppressing bandits. I also vaguely heard that there is also the matter of Marquis forming a party for personal gain. One by one, one by one, has a lot to do with it, and I don't know what villain made it .”

While speaking, there was a bit of worry in the anxious expression. When Nongyun and Peiyu heard this, they also looked anxious. After all, although they were with Qin Yi, they were also the sons of the Hou family. Something happened to Master Hou, and they followed Qin Yi. Maybe nothing happened, but the relatives at home didn't know what they would suffer.

Qin Yi thought about it for a while, and then ordered Lanyue to say: "You send someone to go out and find out who made the impeachment memorial. Father will report again when he comes back."

Seeing Peiyu and Nongyun's worried faces, he laughed again and said: "The mansion is not peaceful today, and you have to work hard for a few days, take care of the yard more, don't worry about playing cards, drinking, talking nonsense. If you can't control it, just throw it out."

Hearing what Qin Yi said, the three of Peiyu felt a little more at ease, and then thought, after all, the marquis is not weak in holy favor, and the mansion is the title of the founder of the country, so he went out to do things carefully with only a little nervousness .

Seeing that the three servant girls had all gone out, Qin Yi frowned. It's not that he didn't know the dangers of fighting in the court, but his uncle and cousin held the military power, and their status in the heart of the Holy Spirit was not low, and they acted in a low-key manner, although there were some gossips Gossip has no real meaning, it's just the villain's jealous words, no one takes it seriously.As for his own father, who was a nobleman when he was young, although he didn't dare to be called a capable minister, he was also a practical talent in the end. He didn't dare to say that Jane was in the heart of the emperor, but he was still useful in the heart of the sage.

But now he has been impeached for no reason, saying that Lord Hou is greedy for money and power, although the mansion is a bit extravagant and wasteful, but after careful calculation, it is considered frugal in the family of the same people in Beijing.

When Hou Ye came back from his post in Yunzhou, although he brought a lot of local products, Qin Yi also inquired about it, and knew that what Hou Ye got was not so much a bribe from bribery, but a reward from the sage. During the few years in Yunzhou, the Lord has been respectful to his duty and diligent in government affairs. Not to mention, he has subdued the barbarians and opened up another territory for today. There have always been military merit rewards in the army, and Lord Hou deserves it.

As for playing power, it's even more ridiculous. Master Hou is the governor, and it's his job to be the prime minister for a state's affairs.

As for forming cliques for private interests, it is even more ridiculous. Those who communicate with the Marquis Mansion are only some family members. After these meritorious service, they have official positions, and they are also errands rewarded by the Holy One. Forming cliques for private interests is not enough for qualifications go.It's not that there are no such feats like Lord Hou who came from the imperial examination, but only Lord Hou has been promoted to a second-rank official in more than ten years.It's not for anything else, just for the word of pure minister. Now it's better to say that Lord Hou is forming a party for personal gain than saying that he is not well-informed today, so be more direct.

Qin Yi thought about it carefully, and felt that the words of impeachment were mostly rumors and conjectures, which were not worth mentioning, but the censor who wrote the letter, I don't know if it was innocent, listening to the wind or rain; He agreed, but it took people to ponder.

Qin Yi smiled, and was about to call Chuanshan to come in, when he suddenly remembered that the uneven seas mentioned by Lanyue were just uneven seas, and it was not a matter of the past two years. High-ranking officials and dignitaries are not uncommon. If it is said that Hou Ye is not good for suppressing bandits, it is not just Hou Ye who hit the face. After all, civil servants and generals plus honors, this paper is really of a standard. Let alone being unreasonable at the moment, it is justified. The court No one in the village dared to go along with it, and they still pointed to official positions to support their families, but they didn't dare to get involved.

Thinking of this, Qin Yi couldn't help laughing again, but there seemed to be a familiar voice in his mind: "Heard in a daze, people say that they are going to conquer the water bandits in the east, but they don't know where the soldiers are headed, and how many people are displaced?" '

Qin Yi's eyes darkened, and he frowned slightly. There was a lot of mystery on this memorial. The gossip was rumored, either unsubstantiated or false, but the sea was uneven, but it was worth considering.After thinking about it, could it be that this sea bandit has been making trouble for too long, blocking the way of some people, and the emperor didn't care, so he had to instigate someone to make a note, add salt to the water in the capital, and pave the way for the road to go over this block.

But now that I think about it, Qi Xuan's words are really suspicious, the direction of the soldiers, the displacement of the people, the meaning in the words... Qin Yi shook his head, it must be that he was wrong, Qi Xuan's origin is somewhat Quite weird, but his words and deeds are not like the person I thought in my heart.

Just as he was lost in thought, the curtain moved, and Yizhu came into the room with a food box, Qin Yi turned his head to look, and only smiled: "Why did you bring the food today, but the girl in the kitchen is burning incense and worshiping Buddha? "

Yizhu smiled, and asked with a puzzled smile: "Young Master, what you said is so strange, girls are so polite, what kind of incense are you burning, what kind of Buddha are you worshiping, and you don't go to the temple."

Qin Yi was about to speak with a smile, but saw Lanyue lift the curtain and come in, jokingly said: "Since I burn high incense, I will pay homage to Yizhu, a big Buddha, so that I can be free every day and have a lot of monthly money go."

After hearing this, Yi Zhu smiled lightly and said, "I don't know if there is incense in the kitchen, but this food box was sent by Madam, who said it was a dish for Young Master."

Qin Yi didn't take it seriously, and just said: "Put it on the table." Just as he was about to order the kitchen to pass the meal in, Nong Yun lifted the curtain and entered the room, looked at Qin Yi, with some hesitation, and said in a low voice: "My lord, the gentleman invited by Master Hou has sent a letter to the mansion to resign."

Qin Yi was stunned for a moment, and only smiled: "What's the matter, it's not that the gentleman is a great Confucianist in Yunzhou, why did he go back on his word when he was so good?"

Nongyun looked outside, then came back and said: "I ordered someone to inquire. The gentleman said that he was old and weak, and he was not acclimatized to the climate in Beijing. He was sick again a few days ago. He really didn't want to teach, so he resigned." , please find someone else in the mansion."

Hearing Nongyun's words, Qin Yi couldn't help laughing again, he knew clearly in his heart that this gentleman thought he had heard something, so he couldn't say it clearly, he was just looking for irrelevant words to prevaricate the mansion.However, Qin Yi's heart sank suddenly. Once something happened to Lord Hou, these people stood by anxiously. It's just that the time was too short and the wind was uncertain.
