Chapter fifty-seven admonition

The King of Qi came here to visit Xu Zixian, and he had to look at the actual situation in the other courtyard. He did not ask anyone to notify him in advance, and even the gatekeeper did not know his identity. The more he did this, the more he saw it, he was quite realistic.

Xu Zixian's efforts can be seen completely without waiting for others to convey them.

After entering the second gate from the outer courtyard, I sat in the guest seat in the middle of the North Hall. After drinking the fruit wine presented by Xu Zixian, the King of Qi thought for a while and said, "The thieves in Qishan will never give up. The city defense camp is not the Jiang defense camp and will not be stationed inside and outside the town for a long time. You can train troops in advance and prepare for the future. This is very good, but the more than a hundred people now have insufficient numbers no matter how they practice, and they cannot stand against the enemy."

Xu Zixian said: "What the Grand Governor said is."

When talking about official affairs, Xu Zixian was called an official position. His job was General Xuanwei under the Fujian Grand Governor's Office. He only had a title of honor and did not have a real position. However, he still had to talk about the upper and lower rules of the officialdom.

Then he smiled bitterly and said, "However, the court system, the Marquis's Mansion had to be the only one who could only be the generals. There would be someone talking to the full essay, let alone the super essay."

"It's not that you are asking you to be super-titled." Xu Yingxing pondered: "It's just that the troops are not enough, and you can't protect yourself. Although the Grand Governor's Office can adjust the city defense camp and the Jiang defense camp, how to arrange the defense is mainly to follow the assignment of the comfort envoy. Lin Douyao may not like a royal family member like you, so it's unlikely to rely on the commander to protect you."

Xu Zixian listened silently. This was a high-level trend. He didn't know much about it in his previous life because he had never entered the core circle of power.

"I will try this matter." Xu Yingxing said: "Your military achievements, the Pacification Envoy, the Examination Envoy, the Fuzhou Prefecture, and the Inspectorate Envoy have all been reported. I also asked the military officers of the Grand Governor's Office to write memorials and report your merits. I also want to talk about your difficulties. I cannot be sure how the court arranges it. If you gain nothing, then you should move back to the city to live, which is safer."

Xu Zixian said: "If I were afraid, there would be no ambush, and there would be no such contribution. After returning to the city, the people here will definitely suffer. I cannot call Nan'an Marquis Mansion, which will remain indestructible for hundreds of years."

"Very good, very good!" The King of Qi's appreciation of Xu Zixian was beyond words. People like the King of Qi, protecting the country and defending the country are all things that are in their bones. Most of the old-school people have their own persistence. Judging from the King of Qi's years of experience in protecting Fujian Road, the importance of the safety of Fujian Road is self-evident.

"Since you said this," said the King of Qi with a sigh: "Of course, I must help you with this matter. With the other courtyard as the center, to the water entrance, the valley entrance, and the area, one or two battalions were originally needed to be added to garrison. In recent years, I have been trying to make this happen, but the ministers have always used the difficulties in Fujian's local financial resources and cannot support it. With you, this place is an emerging place. I can really feel at ease if I can keep the peace in the place."

King Qi did not say specific arrangements or made clear promises, but his support for Xu Zixian was quite obvious.

"After talking for a long time, I was so hungry." Xu Yingxing touched his belly and smiled: "Don't call a banquet outside, just have ordinary side dishes and ordinary meals."

With the respect of the King of Qi, the kitchen of the family is of course very high. Even if the King of Qi is not very particular about the diet, the kitchen of the royal palace is not comparable to that of the Nan'an Hou Mansion.

The reason why I could keep food here was that there was light on Xu Zixian's face. It was almost noon, and Xu Zixian sent someone to invite Li Yi to accompany him. The rest of the people in the other courtyard, including Kong He, could not come to accompany him. After all, the prince's honor was second only to the prime minister. Li Yi was from the seventh rank and his status was enough, but the rest were too far apart.

"You must also find a guest of the Marquis' Mansion." When going to the flower hall to prepare for dinner, the King of Qi reminded: "We have to go to the capital at the end of this year, and offer a cup of gold to worship the Taimiao in the spring next year. This dynasty governs the world with filial piety. You must not be careless in this matter. You are famous for your article and everyone praises your filial piety. Don't be careless in this matter."

"Yes, the Marquis' Mansion was insufficient before, so it was impossible to delay the replenishment. Now we are trying to do it slowly."

Xu Yingxing sighed: "It's true that each generation is better than the next. Seeing you, we are really old after all."

"The old horse is in the stable and has a thousand miles of ambitions." Xu Zixian said seriously: "Fujian, after all, it still depends on the Grand Commander to guard it."

The King of Qi smiled and said nothing, and he just sighed for a moment. Although he was nearly 60 years old, the King of Qi thought that he had always been healthy and had no illness. He was expected to be able to calm Fujian within more than ten years.

This feeling was said to be praising Xu Zixian, but in fact there was another feeling in it.

Today's priest is only about thirty years older than Xu Zixian. When he ascended the throne, he was determined to innovate and asked King Qi for advice on the four words "rich the country and strengthen the army".

At that time, the King of Qi secretly submitted a secret report with thousands of suggestions, but there was no further information. Only after he came down did he realize that the emperor often used his power to govern the country, and he tried too hard and was too harsh to do so.

Now the left prime minister Han Zhong, the right prime minister Xu Xiashang, and Liu Zhiyuan and others are all unnamed and have their own selfish intentions. The emperor cannot control it at all. The central government is chaotic and the local area is disinterested. The Wei Dynasty gradually shows signs of a national destruction.

All of these made the King of Qi extremely disappointed. Looking at the Fuzhou royal family, most of them were playboys from Zouma Zhangtai who only knew how to pursue pleasure. The few famous royal children were nothing more than those deliberately promoted by King Zhao, and King of Qi did not agree with it.

However, Xu Zixian was silent and had a good manner of doing things, which made the King of Qi lit up. If the royal family was like Xu Zixian, if not mentioning the entire Wei Dynasty, at least Fujian Road could be safe for another few decades.

"This is the sister-in-law." After entering the flower hall where guests were entertained, the younger sister was already waiting in front of the hall. When she saw the King of Qi, she quickly bowed her blessing.

"You often go to the palace when you were a child, but do you still remember?"

The King of Qi did not pretend to behave with Xu Zixian. Although he admired him, he still had the majesty of a superior. He was very kind to his younger sister, with a gentle smile on his face.

"Remember." The younger sister replied obediently: "My father often took me there, saying that he was asking for candy from Uncle King Qi."

"Haha." King Qi smiled and said, "Now is not a little girl who wants candy. Well, don't you give me?"

The little sister blushed and refused to answer. Xu Zixian smiled and said, "When my father was there, he planned to marry the Marquis of Jingyuan. He spoke verbally, but he did not really make a marriage."

"Oh, that's why I haven't allowed others to find it calmly. If there are good talented children, I will also protect the media."

Xu Zixian felt aroused, knowing that King Qi was not very satisfied with the Marquis of Jingyuan, but he was not an elder in the near branch, so he was not inconvenient to be the master of the family, so he expressed it in this tactful way.

"Yes, uncle, don't worry," Xu Zixian smiled: "There is only this sister, and my nephew will definitely find the best family for her."

King Qi nodded, sat down after tea, the younger sister said goodbye and went to the kitchen with Xiuniang to arrange meals.

"Mingda." Xu Yingxing suddenly said, "I heard that you were involved in the concubine you took?"

“It’s not like rumors.”

There are now vague rumors in Fuzhou City. This time, the incident was so riotous that Xu Zixian was involved in the incident and Li Cheng was involved in the civil warrior. This certainly harmed Xu Zixian's image, so it must be explained clearly.

After Xu Zi finished speaking first, Xu Yingxing pondered: "I heard that the Xiuniang incident is just an introduction. I think you are also suspected of doing it on purpose."

"Yes." In front of such a sophisticated politician, Xu Zixian knew it would be better to hide his weaknesses. He nodded honestly and said, "I can't help but use this matter to find the loopholes. Fortunately, Xiu Niang and Xiu's appearance in the outside world are already a good helper for the inner house."

"This matter must not be repeated." Xu Yingxing warned: "It will be very unfavorable for your marriage."

According to the tradition among the nobles, some mansions with strict family traditions generally do not allow children to take concubines first. They must have a wife, and the wife is infertile for many years before it is possible to take concubines.

Another type is that the wife is pregnant and has a body in the morning, so she can also take a concubine.

However, most men are only forty years old and should be restrained in taking concubines, so as not to be uneasy, delay progress, and affect their health. The mansion with strict family style is not as extravagant as the people imagine.

"My nephew understands." Xu Zixian said sincerely: "Before getting married, there will never be such a thing again."

"It's not that I'm troublesome." Xu Yingxing smiled and said, "You know that your father had a very good relationship with Changwenhou when he was in Qizhou. These two people refer to marriage. You are worthy of the third lady of Changwenhou's mansion. This matter was mentioned in front of me, and of course it was not officially decided. If you don't make a contribution, I won't mention this. If you are successful, you have to be careful. When you have the opportunity, you should visit Changwenhou's mansion. If the masters of his mansion like you, this matter will be done."

Xu Zixian's heartbeats a few times... Changwen Hou Mansion, Chen Wenjun, is it really something that he dreamed of in his previous life but was unattainable. He is already in this life?

If you get engaged when you are a teenager, you can count it or not. After all, you have to make a formal decision to be considered successful.

For example, if the younger sister and Chen Jingzhong are bothered, Xu Zi first made up his mind not to get married. Anyway, he had a very bad relationship with Chen Jingfu. Then he found an excuse to fight Sun Jingzhong and Jingfu brothers. The marriage will be bad, and it will be bad either.

As for Chen Wenjun, because he had an agreement before and had seen him many times later, somehow, it might be because of pity or the reason that he couldn't explain clearly, Chen Wenjun had a great affection for Xu Zixian, and his marriage was almost successful.

But later Xu Ziwen came out, and no matter his family background and talent, he suppressed Xu Zixian far away. Xu Zixian was so overwhelmed like a mountain that he couldn't breathe.

Moreover, King Zhao became powerful later and almost made a fuss in Fuzhou. The situation changed. Even if the Changwen Hou Mansion had to make a marriage for himself, it would have to make a marriage.

This incident caused great harm to Xu Zixian, and it was a knot that he had never untied in his entire life.

Why did he use Xiu Niang as a guide when he started? In addition to having some love for Xiu Niang, he also wanted to make up for all his regrets. In the last life, the younger sister died in depression, and Chen Wenjun also died early. It was all because of the unhappy relationship and suffering. She saved Xiu Niang easily. In a thought, she changed Xiu Niang's life.

After taking it as a concubine, Xiuniang was extremely kind to him, and the hostility caused by the dissatisfaction in her previous life was eliminated a lot. This is also what Xu Zixian was extremely grateful for. If a person wants to accomplish great things, he should not be too paranoid in his relationships. Paranoidness will only lead to bad things and will never be successful.

As for the words of King Qi now, Xu Zixian felt extremely happy, but when he thought about it calmly, he still had many difficulties.

The key is that if King Zhao wants to master Fuzhou and even Fujian, he will first move down the mountain of King Qi. Let’s not talk about this matter for the time being, Xu Zi will definitely interfere...

Next, we need to obtain the support of local officials and gentry. Such foreign officials such as Lin Douyao are equivalent to rootless trees. Compared with princes like Zhao who have local support and certain military power, the difference is too far.

If King Zhao wants to master Fujian Road, he must also gain local support, financial power, military power, and momentum.

Chen Dujing, the Marquis of Changwen, is a Marquis of Min and a representative figure of the officials and gentry in the city. Although he does not have real power on the surface, officials and gentry are different from the royal family. It is difficult for the royal family to have power if they are not officials. Even if officials and gentry do not have current official positions, they can still interfere in local government affairs by relying on their influence.

There are many disciples and former officials in Changwenhou Mansion in Fujian, including one prefecture, five prefectures, two armies, and forty-seven counties. The total number of officials exceeds 10,000, and a considerable number of officials are related to Changwenhou Mansion.

If King Zhao wants to gain recognition from officials and gentry, support from local prefectures, make friends with Changwen Hou Mansion, and even get married, it is a must.

Xu Zi first wanted to marry the third lady of Changwen Hou Mansion. It was a long way to go, but it was not as relaxed as expected.
