Houmen's concubine

Xie Yuheng bowed to Emperor Mingzheng and said, "Okay, Mr. Xiao please first."

Xu Wei also followed Xie Yuheng and arched his hands towards Emperor Mingzheng, bowed his body and said in a sonorous voice: "My minister, I send you off to Master Xiao."

Xu Wei is still not used to calling the emperor "Master."

Thinking back to when I saw the emperor just before noon, I was surprised and thought it was because my eyes were dazzled?

Could it be that he saw a person who looked like an emperor?

If nephew Xie hadn't been standing beside him, he would never have believed the fact that the emperor went to Qinzhou in a subdued manner.

"Ah."

Emperor Mingzheng nodded, and took the lead to step out of the threshold of the box. Wu Zhi still bowed and stood alone behind him.

Xie Yuheng waited for the emperor to get out of the box door, and then waved politely to Xu Wei: "Please, Uncle Xu."

In fact, it depends on the grade of the official.Xie Yuheng was one level higher than Xu Wei.

Besides, no matter how high the rank of a local official is, how can a Beijing official be valuable and respectable?

Xu Wei is also the governor of the second rank in the local area, but Xie Yuheng is in charge of the imperial guards in the capital and the military power of 10,000+ troops stationed outside the city during the truce.

In addition, he has the right to mobilize local generals, governors, admirals, governors of various provinces, deputy governors, and chief soldiers.

He held a tiger talisman in his hand, but his tiger talisman was cut into three by Emperor Mingzheng.

In order to check and balance, the emperor came up with a whim, different from the practice of cutting the tiger talisman into two by the emperors of the past.

One is in the hands of the emperor, one is in the hands of General Xu, and the other is of course in the hands of Xie Yuheng.

Only when the tiger talisman returns to its place can the three armies be commanded.

However, the Tiger Talisman in Xie Yuheng's hand is still feasible to mobilize the local troops and the guards in the capital.

Emperor Mingzheng was quite at ease with Xie Yuheng, the first being that he was loyal enough.

The second is the question of his ability.

Thirdly, he does not stand in line or form cliques.

In the eyes of the emperor, these three points are enough to become the standard of his close ministers.

You think, how can a courtier be capable if he is not loyal?

And vice versa.

The emperor has three or four sons. He is still in his prime, and he may have several more sons in the future.

If you stand in line and form cliques, wouldn't the world be in chaos and bloody when the princes grow up and fight for the throne?
Another thing that reassures Emperor Mingzheng most is that none of Xie Yuheng's family or even close relatives entered the palace as a concubine.

Therefore, it is even more impossible for him to favor a prince because of blood relationship, and thus stand in line.

Why did the ancient emperors choose their successors to establish the elders but not the young, and why did the emperors choose the successors instead of the concubines?

The reason is of course that there is only one queen, and there are only a few legitimate sons.And there are countless beauties in the harem, and it is known that they have many children.

The first son represents the orthodoxy, and the eldest son is the successor of the future emperor.

This is also an ancestral precept set by the children in order to fight for high positions in order to fear that there will be many children in the future.

So is the family.

······
Taking advantage of the journey back to Qin's house, Xie Yuheng told Xu Wei what he knew about Xu Jinshen's background: "Uncle Xu, my nephew felt familiar with him the first time I saw him, he really resembles you , especially the pair of eyes are really similar!"

When Xu Wei was told by Xie Yuheng, she suppressed her wildly beating heart, wishing she could step into Qin's house and meet the boy Xie Yuheng was talking about.

This young man almost overlapped with his son who was kidnapped by a kidnapper.

This child was also abducted by kidnappers when he was four or five years old. The time of abduction was almost the same as his age, and his appearance was similar to his own. Who else could he be if he was not his son?

Although the uncle and nephew didn't ride horses, they walked back to Qin's house with both legs. After all, they knew martial arts, and they arrived at the east gate of the Qilin courtyard in just a blink of an eye, and entered the Qilin courtyard in a short while.

When he arrived at Qilin Courtyard, Xie Yuheng saw Wang Tonger's small body flashing into the room when he was far away.

When he got close, he stretched out his arms and pushed the door, but the door was bolted from the inside.

Hey!
What is the little girl hiding inside?
As soon as Xiao Cong saw it, he hurried over and said respectfully to Xie Yuheng: "Young Master Xie, please wait a moment, our young master is taking a bath."

"Oh." Xie Yuheng nodded to Xiao Cong.

Xin said: That's right, the little girl just jumped up and down on the stage and sang several songs, she must have sweated a lot in this hot weather.

Thinking of this, Xie Yuheng told Xiao Cong, "Go make a pot of tea and drink it after your young master's bath."

"Yes, little one, let's go."

While nodding his head, Xiao Cong felt guilty: he didn't even have the kindness that a guest treats his master.

"Young Master Xie, there's no need. The maid has prepared the iced cheese she likes for the young master." Xiaoxue just came out of the room, just happened to hear Xie Yuheng's words, and said immediately.

Upon hearing this, Xie Yuheng said with a downcast face, "She just broke out in a sweat, and drinking iced food is not good for her health."

Is it okay for a girl to eat cold food all day long?
She was already cold, and her stomach hurt badly when she was young.

"Oh." Xiaoxue agreed, and said in her heart: But the young master loves this so-called drink in her mouth the most.

Xu Wei stood aside and watched coldly, tsk, it really looks like that.

Is this young man Xie Shinephew's concubine?
If it weren't for his concubine, how could he care so much, care so much?
Still worrying about whether other people eat ice is good for their health?
Or did the nephew see someone who looked like his concubine, Ai Wu Ji Wu?

Where did Xie Yuheng notice that Xu Wei was at the side, looking at him with rare gossip eyes?

He turned around and asked Xiaoxue who was about to leave, "Why didn't you see Guanshi Xu?"

After he asked such a question, Xiaoxue noticed the strange tall, burly, heroic middle-aged general beside him.

The pitch-black eyes are like a deep cold pool, which makes people fearful when they see them.

However, she felt that this man was a bit like Brother Shen.

Alas!
What are you thinking?

Brother Shen is not like this person?
Brother Shen is tall and handsome, but his expression is cold and gentle.

How can it be compared with the black-faced general in front of him?
Unexpectedly, Xu Wei thought of the soft-looking little girl in front of her, but she already compared him with Xu Jinshen in her heart.

So, Xiaoxue told Xie Yuheng: "Brother Shen went to work in the shop that the young master just bought on the street."

what?
Tong'er also bought a shop on the street?

Why haven't I heard her mention it?

What a joke, how could Wang Tonger tell him about buying a shop?
She didn't even mention the cheap father, and let Xu Jinshen and Ji Yu's brother go quietly to sell the shop.

Ugh!
When Xie Yuheng heard it, his heart sank for a second.

The little girl even bought the shop quietly, this is the rhythm of not wanting to recognize me and not going back to Beijing with me.

Xiaoxue didn't notice Xie Yuheng's discouraged expression, she looked at the sky and said, "Brother Shen will probably be back in a while."

"Mr. Xie, master, you two can chat slowly. I will go to the kitchen to prepare dinner for the young master." Xiaoxue said hello and was about to leave. When she thought of something, she turned to Xie Yuheng and asked, "Mr. Xie, where are you at tonight?" Do you have dinner here?"
