Mo Yanliang

Chapter 246
After being scolded by her little niece for a long time, Xia Huaimin suddenly had doubts about herself.

The Xia family and the Shen family are both scholarly families, and their children's life paths have been planned from the day they were born.

Read, read, read...

Regardless of whether you want to take part in the imperial examination in the future, your whole life will be tied to books.

As the eldest son of the Xia family, Xia Huaimin is very clear that he not only has to consider his own future, but also shoulders the ups and downs of the entire family, and needs to study harder than others.

However, with the blood of Xia and Shen running through his body, he has no interest in studying at all.

Not only him, but even his second brother, who is two years younger than him, is not suitable for studying at all.

However, the two brothers are still different.

The second brother was forced to read by his father, and he forced himself to read.

As a result, the second brother suffered a lot, but he was depressed all day long, and he could only feel happy when he secretly learned martial arts with the guards.

By chance, he met General Yang, the famous general of Fengguo, and learned a set of marksmanship under his guidance.

Since then, he has been running to Yang's house every now and then as if possessed by a demon.

At the beginning, he just used his spare time, but later he gradually learned to skip classes, and even didn't go home for several days.

His father was the prime minister of the court, and his official duties were very heavy, but he had always been very concerned about the children's studies, and soon found out about him.

He thought that he would be the same as his second brother, a board meal was indispensable.

But to his surprise, his father didn't hit him, but seriously asked him what he wanted to do in the future.

He knew very well that this might be his only chance to realize his dream, so he boldly said that he wanted to worship General Yang as his teacher, and wanted to be a general who defended his family and the country in the future.

His father didn't make fun of him, nor did he look down on him, but analyzed with him the difficulty of being a general in Fengguo with the same serious attitude as before.

Seeing that his father didn't seem to object to him abandoning literature and pursuing martial arts, Xia Huaimin became more courageous, saying that he was willing to endure hardships and would never regret it in the future.

Father didn't say any more, but went to see General Yang himself and entrusted himself to him.

Since then, he never dared to slack off, practiced martial arts earnestly and worked hard to learn the art of war, and finally became the defender of Shuocheng.

What his father said was not easy, he experienced it over and over again, the hardships and grievances he suffered, that is to say, he could not finish talking about it for ten days and ten nights.

But he survived all of them, not only for his own ideals, but also for not embarrassing his father and not disappointing his old man.

He didn't dare to say that he had become the pride of his father, but he never thought that he was the person who worried his parents the most.

Xia Yueliang was ready to have a big fight with him, but he didn't expect him to say nothing, just staring at her in a daze.

After a long time, Xia Huaimin's complexion became even uglier.

"Third girl, are those words you just said true?"

Xia Yueliang said lightly: "My uncle should be able to tell whether my words are true or not.

Although you have been guarding the border all year round, and you don't have many opportunities to get in touch with His Majesty, you know how suspicious he is.

Grandfather is the head of civil servants, and it is not easy for the Xia family's children to hold important positions in the court.

But you chose to abandon literature and pursue martial arts, and you became the son-in-law of a famous general.

This is equivalent to adding another arm to your grandfather. Do you think His Majesty will allow this to happen?

In order to fulfill you, grandfather gave up the position of prime minister under the pretext of being unwell, and became the grand master according to His Majesty's wishes.

If not, would it be so easy for Wen Laohu to become the Prime Minister of Fengguo?
If he wasn't the prime minister, many things might not have happened, so why should my father wrong himself to become a bachelor? ! "

The more Xia Yueliang talked, the more excited she became, her white face flushed red.

If it wasn't for the fact that Xia Huaimin was her own elder, she would have prepared a whole bunch of worse things!

Xia Huaimin's face also turned red.

Being scolded by his little niece who has not yet reached the age, this is something he has never thought about.

But today this thing actually happened, and he couldn't refute it at all.

He always thought that it was not a bad thing for his father to step down from the position of prime minister.

After all, he is old and should rest in peace for a few years.

Now he has heavy troops in his hands, and Shuo City is one of the most important cities in Feng Kingdom.

Moreover, there are four younger brothers in the court, and the two of them have a civil and a martial arts, even His Majesty will not easily disadvantage the Xia family.

Unexpectedly, things were not as simple as he thought, and there was already an undercurrent surging in the seemingly calm court.

He frowned and said, "The prince's party is gone, but Wen Laohu can still stand?"

Xia Yueliang sneered and said: "I heard that the old fox is extremely treacherous, he had found a way out long before His Majesty decided to give up the prince.

More importantly, what His Majesty needs is a balance of forces among all parties, and it doesn't matter to him whether he is loyal or traitorous.

As far as the current situation is concerned, the only person in the court who has the ability to contain the Xia family is Wen Laohu, how could he let the Wen family fall. "

One of the reasons why Xia Huaimin abandoned literature and turned to martial arts back then was his distaste for the intrigues in the court.

The little niece analyzed the affairs of the imperial court clearly and logically, and besides expressing emotion, she also had a lot of resentment towards Feng Huang.

The Xia family has devoted themselves to the Yan family's country for generations, but what they got in return is the emperor's endless doubts.

Is the blood and sweat he has put in all these years worth it?

"Three girls..." Xia Huaimin hesitated to speak.

He wanted to vent the depression in his chest to his little niece, and felt that she was just a little girl, so he really couldn't express it.

Xia Yueliang breathed a sigh of relief.

"Uncle, you didn't choose to guard the border all because of the emperor, so now there is no need to be disheartened, and there is no need to have any burden."

Xia Huaimin nodded: "You're right, the reason why I chose to take this path was because I wanted to protect the territory and people of Fengguo.

It's just what is the current situation in the DPRK and China, will my father..."

Xia Yueliang said: "Although Your Majesty has not formally deposed the crown prince, everyone knows that Fengguo will soon have a new crown prince.

At this critical moment, King Bosi was ordered to return to Beijing, so his chances must be greater than those of other princes.

According to reliable sources, Wen Laohu and him are ready to join forces, and our Xia family's life may be difficult. "

Of course the situation was not so critical, but Xia Yueliang wanted to remind Xia Huaimin, so he made the situation serious on purpose.

Xia Huaimin frowned even tighter.

"That's it... what does San girl think I can do?"

Xia Yueliang said: "To tell you the truth, Uncle, the reason why I made a detour to Shuocheng this time is to investigate Wen old fox's past."

Xia Huaimin said: "Wen Laohu is indeed from Shuocheng, but Wen's family is small, and although the old house is still there, no one has lived in it for a long time.

Even digging three feet may not be able to find useful clues. "
