Chapter 159: Xu Liang is awarded the title and Xu Xun is promoted

The Ganqing Palace lasted for most of the night, but the cabinet lasted for a whole night. Therefore, when the morning court was as usual the next morning, Emperor Hongzhi's spirit was naturally not much better, and Liu Jian, Li Dongyang and Xie Qian, who was twice as old as he was, was not to mention. After listening to the five important but insignificant major events, the next official articles were introduced by the Emperor, and the emperor immediately nodded to retreat to the court without even leaving any more. The three cabinet ministers were also anxious to return to the house to make up for their sleep.

As for the young Zhu Houzhao, he didn't know that there was such a change last night. Yesterday he went to the Ministry of Personnel to listen, but because of a good word, he was taught a lesson by Emperor Hongzhi for a full half an hour. He didn't dare to get into trouble this day, so he sent Liu Jin to the Silijian to inquire. However, although the four Silijian bosses who knew the secrets and the imperial letters were all tight-lipped, so that Liu Jin hit a soft nail and had to go back and report.

Zhu Houzhao wanted to sneak out of the palace again to inquire about the news, and ask him what he asked Xu Xun to do. However, Chengqian Palace was much more nervous than before, and Emperor Hongzhi actually sent someone to take him to Wenhua Palace to listen to the lectures. Even if he was reluctant, he had to obey his orders with a little bit of words.

As for Xu Xun outside the palace, except for the necessary days, he followed Xu Liang to Xing'an Bo Mansion to complete the necessary funeral ceremony, he continued to stay away from the door for most of the days to come. When he had nothing to do, he read the books that Wang Shikun brought back from the Imperial College Principal of Beijing after he had gone to Beijing Imperial College. He never expected that Zhang Mao asked him to send a letter to Xie Duo, not to mention the guilt in his stomach. Although Xie Duo had not yet stated whether he agreed or refused, he asked Wang Shikun to bring back four boxes of books, which made him deeply feel for the old man far away in Nanjing.

He has always been the type of people who respect me one foot. He once made Zhang Mao lose face, but Zhang Mao treated him so kindly. How could he feel sorry for this?

Suddenly, another 10 or 20 days passed. Xu Sheng, the Xing'an Boss Xu Sheng, had already finished his Qiqi, and he was only waiting for a date to be buried. On this day, Xu Xun was reading a book, while he was thinking about how many clues had been found in Huitong, and on the other hand, he thought about occasionally walking to the mutton alley to meet the little girl in the mutton alley these nights under the guidance of Li Qingniang. Li Qingniang actually said that the little girl took the risk to "meet" Mrs. Li Dongyang for him. He was really sorry. Now that his own affairs have been decided, he should think of a way to let the little girl stand openly in front of others. At the moment of being distracted, there was a sudden loud noise outside. After a while, with the sound of footsteps, Tao Hong actually knocked open the thick curtain like a gust of wind and rushed in.

"Young Master...Young Master, the angel is here!"

A few days after first arriving in the capital, Tao Hong had already learned the title of the official family in the capital. Of course, this was also due to the words and deeds of Master Wang, who often visited here. Now Xu Xun has passed the season when he will treat angels as birdmen. He almost subconsciously put the book on the table, then stood up and asked, "Who is it here? Is my father receiving the order or me?"

"What I'm here is...ah, in short, it's a good thing, not a bad thing. Master, please change your clothes first!"

Seeing Tao Hong say a little, he opened the vine box without saying a word to search for the crown and clothes he had faced with Shengshi before, Xu Xun was extremely strange. However, since it was a good thing, he was too lazy to think too much, so Tao Hong pulled down the home-club jacket on him and dressed him neatly. When he left the second door, he saw Xu Liang standing in the yard, and in front of the incense table receiving the order, behind Sun Bin, the letter from the Silijian who was holding Huang Ling's imperial edict, was standing there for a long time.

After nearly two months of separation, Ruisheng seemed to be more calm than before. At least once he stood there, the people who came out of the ten palaces did not always look a little timid like before. However, at this moment, seeing Xu Xun come out of the second gate, there was still an unconcealed surprise on his face, but he still held back and didn't move his steps, staring at the person who was stroking over, as if he couldn't see enough.

Although he only served Xu Xun for half a year, this half year was the happiest and most comfortable day in his life!

"The emperor of Fengtian Chengyun said, "Xing'an Bo Xu Sheng had left without a son, and according to the law, there was a method to seize titles. However, Xu Xiang, the Xing'an Bo, was diligent and cautious in his achievements, and was posthumously named Xu Heng, the Marquis of Xing'an, Wuxiang, made great contributions to the conquest of Wuliangha. I cannot bear to have the meritorious ministers cut off the queen, so I ordered the Ministry of Personnel to visit and obtain Xu Liang and Xu Yi. As his elders and young people, I ordered Xu Liang to inherit the title of Count Xing'an, and to pay a thousand stones. Xu Yi was still the flag bearer to guard Qianhu. I was here to honor this."

After reading this short imperial edict, Xu Xun saw Xu Liang kneeling on the ground, his fingers were tightly clutching the ground. He didn't know that his father, who had been wasting his life for half his life, could not bear the sudden good news, so he hurriedly hit him gently with his elbow. Until Xu Liang finally burst out the thank-you, he followed and kowtowed. However, when he was about to help Xu Liang, he saw Sun Bin's voice coming from the upper head.

"Young Master Xu... is wrong. You should change it to Prince Xing'an in the future. There is another appointment document given to you by the Ministry of War. It's just that it's not an order, so you don't have to kneel down."

Xu Xun, who looked up at Sun Bin, immediately supported Xu Liang to get up. After Xu Liang received the imperial edict from the Huang Ling cover, he reached out and took the official document of the Ministry of War. After reading it from beginning to end, he raised his head and looked at Sun Bin again, but because the people in the yard were covered with people, he asked rashly. He waited until Xu Liang returned to the main room to worship the imperial edict, and he invited Sun Bin to the main hall to serve tea, and then he asked with the document: "Eunuch Sun, this is..."

"We want to congratulate the prince. Although according to the system of the Yongle Dynasty, there are five commanders in the vanguard of the government, now except you, the other four are all without any responsibility. As for officers such as thousands of households and hundreds of households, the same is true for officers. Eunuch Xiao said that the emperor is not counting on you to consolidate the army or lead the troops, because of what His Royal Highness the Crown Prince asks. So you only need to pick five hundred people, whether it is the official army or the remaining army, and you will follow you. As for the officers, aren't you familiar with Dingchang Sun, you can transfer a few of them through him. In short, within three to five months, you must at least let these people let His Royal Highness take a look. Calculate the days, you and Xing'an Bo will move again in the past few days. Ten days later, you will go to the Ministry of War to officially take over."

Speaking of this, when Sun Bin saw Xu Xun dumbfounded, he smiled meaningfully and said, "If it were in the past, you would naturally be difficult to convince the public at a young age. But now you are the son of Xing'an Bo, and the advanced commander will not be abrupt. Although it was Zhang Yong's idea to the Crown Prince, if it were not for Eunuch Xiao, how could anyone think of the vanguard of the government army? Eunuch Xiao also said that the Crown Prince had been detained in Wenhua Palace to study these days, and it was a long time for the East Palace to try to help the prince to relieve his fatigue. Since you are destined to meet the prince, you will be in charge of the young army in the future. You have countless opportunities to get along with the prince. You can think about your idea carefully and catch the prince's heart from those fun. The emperor has only the only one who is the crown prince, which is really good to make his body strong."

Xu Xun was just obeying the little merit for May. If Xu Liang had not wanted to inherit the title, he would have come out to meet people after the first seventh, and as long as he was wearing mourning clothes inside. In addition, he had no feelings for Xu Sheng, so he naturally didn't care about being in charge of the position during this mourning period. Knowing that his position was half of Zhu Houzhao's intentions, and half of Xiao Jing was exercising his strength behind his back, he naturally knew clearly and asked Sun Bin to tell Xiao Jing to thank Yunyun. Sun Bin glanced at Ruisheng sideways, and saw that he looked at Xu Xun as if he had something to say, so he stood up immediately, smiled and patted the little guy's shoulder, and went out first.

"Young Master..."

Seeing that Ruisheng's eyes gradually turned red when he looked at him, Xu Xun couldn't help but sigh in his heart, but there was an indescribable kindness that aroused his aura of indescribable affection - it was still the little guy who cried at any time! He stood up and walked to Ruisheng. He smiled and pressed his head as before, and then asked: "Is it good to be in the palace?"

"Well, okay!" Ruisheng nodded vigorously, as if he was afraid that Xu Xun would not believe it. He added, "Eunuch Xiao treats me very well. In addition to going to the Qianqing Palace and the Sili Supervisor to discuss matters, I follow me everywhere. Everyone is very polite to me. Eunuch Sun also teaches me to write and various rules. Now I can recognize five or six hundred words!"

Seeing Ruisheng's face full of pride, Xu Xun couldn't help but flash the little guy's forehead again. Seeing his bright eyes, he smiled and nodded and said, "Very good, you have grown up! Only in the palace should remember that silence is gold, don't be arrogant and talk nonsense, especially when listening to Eunuch Xiao and Eunuch Sun. Also remember one thing, don't be able to resist because someone in the palace says something wrong with me, and don't think about informing me. You are a person in the palace now, remember not to call me Young Master again in the future..."

Xu Xun said a lot, but he could not ignore the curtain from the corner of his eyes. Although he was not sure whether Sun Bin would eavesdrop on what he was going out of the door, and although he was not sure whether Ruisheng had heard of the secret of the Silijian, he still did not intend to bet on this possibility. He only grabbed Ruisheng's arms while talking, and gently stroked the little guy's arm with his right index finger, but the word "careful". Seeing Ruisheng looking at him, he suddenly bit his lip and nodded vigorously, he smiled.

The first door of the North Silijian in the Imperial City is not facing north and south like the outside yamen, but stands westward. After entering the door, there are more than a dozen pine and cypress trees planted southward, and there is a row of low houses. This is the famous Nei Shutang among the eunuchs.

The small eunuchs in the four rooms were added together, and there were only twenty or thirty people, one group from six to eight years old, one group from eight to ten years old, one group from ten to thirteen years old, one group from thirteen to sixteen years old. The oldest ones were about to come out to do their jobs in various places, and the ones who gave them lectures here were all real Hanlin. It can be said that few scholars who studied hard for the imperial examinations and could enjoy such treatment.

At this moment, Xiao Jing and Li Rong were standing outside the window of Nei Shu Hall, watching the children reading the books of sages in a clear voice. Suddenly, Li Rong laughed and said, "Looking at these children, I remembered when our family first entered the Ganqing Palace as agreed. It's a pity that our family missed the study in Nei Shu Hall, and it was not as knowledgeable as Eunuch Xiao."

"Why did Brother Li say this? Who doesn't know that your words are unique in the palace? Even the emperor praised it?"

"I've been awarded too much..." Li Rong waved his hand with a smile, and suddenly changed his mind, "The little guy who followed you these days looks very smart, what's your name... Hmm, my memory is really not good. Looks like a smart little guy, Gan Qing Palace is missing a promise now. I wonder if you are willing to give up Eunuch Xiao?"

Looking at Li Rong who was lying on his seniority, Xiao Jingqing couldn't help but frown, and then said lightly: "He hasn't learned all the rules yet. It's not too late to stay by our side for a few more months."
