Thinking of the past, Xiao Yi has long since lost the indignation he felt when he first learned the "truth".
He put his arms around Nangong Yue, as if he was telling a story that had nothing to do with him, and said interestingly: "I remember when I was a child, there were three major theater troupes in Southern Xinjiang. Well, from time to time, she will call the theater troupe to the mansion, and then call me over to watch it. There is a section of "kneeling to pray to God, and the slave is willing to raise the child for my sister" which is very interesting! I will take you to listen to it next time !"
Undoubtedly, the "she" Xiao Yi refers to is the protagonist of the "drama", the little Fang family who "married into the palace as the successor for the eldest sister, and carefully raised the youngest son of the eldest sister".
What Xiao Yi said was interesting, Nangong Yue couldn't help pursing her lips and chuckling, "Then what happened afterwards?"
"Before my grandfather passed away, I still saw my grandfather from time to time. But since my grandfather passed away, my grandfather has never been here again." Speaking of this, Xiao Yi still couldn't help feeling a little lonely, "The Fang family is like It's like completely forgetting me..."
However, under Xiao Fang's deliberate indulgence and flattery at that time, Xiao Yi was obsessed with fun and unscrupulous. In the first one or two years, he would occasionally think of the grandfather who always smiled happily at him, but later, as time went by, the impression became less and less, less and less...
Until he went to the capital.
The last time he went back to southern Xinjiang, because of the war, he didn't have time to think about anything else.
But this time, he originally planned to take Nangong Yue to Fang's house after he settled down, but he needed to rush to Kailian City, so he was delayed after coming back and forth.
After all, Xiao Yi also has a knot in his heart...
Xiao Yi hugged her tightly, and said in a low voice: "...the Fang family has never asked me for so many years, maybe they don't care about me anymore."
Nangong Yue knew that he was actually a little timid because of his closeness to his hometown, and was afraid that the old man of the Fang family would ignore him because he hated him, just like Zhennan King.
Nangong Yue leaned against him, and after a while, she said softly, "Let's go to Fang's house."
No matter what the reason is, only by taking such a step can we understand it clearly.
"good… "
Xiao Yi nodded.
The gloom in Xiao Yi's expression quietly dissipated, it doesn't matter even if he loses everything, as long as the stinky girl is still by his side, that's enough!
It was rare for his stinky girl to lean on him so actively, Xiao Yi never opposed his good luck, so he hugged his arms even tighter.
Nangong Yue struggled uncomfortably, then quickly changed the subject and said, "Ah Yi... Before you came back, Concubine Wei sent some gift lists and congratulatory gifts, saying they were for you." She took the opportunity to get up and sit down, A sly smile appeared on his face.
Xiao Yi didn't expose her small thoughts, just looked at her with a smile, saw her straighten her clothes, called Baihui in, and brought the gift list.
Xiao Yi roughly glanced at the gift list. Nangong Yue didn't know it, but he did. He saw a certain commonality that Nangong Yue didn't see at a glance, and said: "These mansions are all from Luoyue City. It seems that these days There's still fun."
Nangong Yue blinked, understood, and smiled.
In the next few days, after the other cities in southern Xinjiang received news of his return to Luoyue City one after another, they would definitely send congratulatory gifts, whether it was for King Zhennan's face or for Xiao Yi.
Xiao Yi also laughed, picked Nangong Yue's chin, and said teasingly: "Little girl, from now on, follow this son obediently, follow this master, and have meat to eat!"
Nangong Yue originally wanted to cooperate, but she couldn't help laughing and failed. Her skill is not enough, she still needs to practice hard.
However, these congratulatory gifts sent to the palace reminded Nangong Yue of one thing. In the eyes of outsiders, Wangfu and Bixiaotang are always the same family... Isn't this a waste of my grandfather's heart when he was alive, a waste of a good one East Street Gate!
Nangong Yue thought about it for a while, and suggested: "Ayi, since we have returned to southern Xinjiang, we should hold a banquet and invite all the prefectures!"
Xiao Yi immediately understood what she meant. On the one hand, this banquet can test the attitudes of the various prefectures in southern Xinjiang; , without the need to go through Zhennan Wang in everything.
"Although this matter is not urgent, we have to find a suitable opportunity, but the list of banquets can be sorted out earlier." Nangong Yue said again, "Ayi, I am new here. Not familiar with each other, and the relationship between them..."
The former Xiao Yi can still answer, but he can't answer when it comes to those relatives. He didn't care about these things when he was in Southern Xinjiang before, and now he has been away from Southern Xinjiang for many years, and his eyes are even darker. .
Seeing Xiao Yi's embarrassed and guilty smile, Nangong Yue understood, and immediately told Baihui: "Baihui, go to Concubine Wei to ask for a list." Since Wei wanted to show favor to Bixiaotang, Every opportunity should be seized.
Sure enough, after a while, Baihui came back with the list given by Wei Shi. Nangong Yue saw it and smiled. Wei Shi did things in a very organized and careful way. Interpersonal communication is clear at a glance. It's no wonder that the Wei family can compete with the Xiao Fang family in this palace, and has won the favor of Zhennan King.
It is not too late to sort out these lists slowly, Xiao Yi has just come back, so he must have a good rest.
Nangong Yue put the list aside, and said with a smile that she would cook for him in the evening.
Xiao Yi was overjoyed, and hurriedly said: "I'll help you!"
Although every time Xiao Yi strikes, the meal will become a mess, but seeing his high spirits, Nangong Yue still happily replied: "That's good, you help me chop vegetables..."
The two of them were talking, and they were about to go to the small kitchen, but at this moment, Que'er came to report in a hurry: "My lord, the lord sent someone here, and asked you to go there now."
Xiao Yi waved his hand without hesitation: "No."
Naturally, Xiao Yi and Nangong Yue are respected in Bixiao Hall, Xiao Yi ordered so, and Que'er immediately retreated in response. Of course, she wouldn't say anything like "my son can't say it" to the visitor, but just vaguely said that my son just came back, and he was still a little sleepy and so on.
Immediately afterwards, the King of Zhennan sent three groups of people over. At first, Que'er was able to dismiss her by herself, but when she was the last one, she hurried to the small kitchen and said: "My lord , the prince said that he wanted to discuss with you about opening the ancestral hall."
Xiao Yi's eyes froze, Nangong Yue has been married here for more than a year, it's nothing more than being trapped in the capital, but after returning to southern Xinjiang, the matter of opening the ancestral hall and publishing the genealogy will naturally be brought up. On the second day after returning to southern Xinjiang, Xiao Yi went to find King Zhennan, but he hurriedly dealt with it. Xiao Yi was too lazy to entangle with him, and when he was waiting to find the patriarch to complete this matter, he was too late to go to Kailian.
this just came back...
King Zhennan is going to tell him about the ancestral hall
"Ah Yue, I'll come as soon as I go."
Nangong Yue responded with a smile, and said, "I'll wait for you to come back for dinner."
Xiao Yi's brows and eyes were full of tenderness, he hugged her and kissed her again, and then hurried out of the small kitchen.
In order to go back quickly for dinner, Xiao Yi hurried to King Zhennan's study in the outer courtyard.
After waiting for someone to report, he walked in and hugged Zhennan King who was behind the desk.
"Father."
Zhennan Wang looked at him silently, originally thinking that Xiao Yi's trip to Kailian City would have some twists and turns, but he didn't expect Xiao Yi to come back so soon.
It's just that he came back, and he didn't even pay his respects to his father, and even failed to invite him three times in a row. He really didn't take himself seriously!
King Zhennan was about to give a good reprimand when he heard Xiao Yi speak first and said, "Father, when are you going to ask the patriarch to open the ancestral hall?" Before he could answer, he said to himself again: "Son, check Yes, three days from now will be an auspicious day, and that day is exactly right."
Zhennan Wang looked at him with a straight face.
Nangong! Nangong! If it wasn't for Nangong's genealogy, I probably wouldn't be able to invite this son today!
"Father." Xiao Yi frowned, and said with restraint, "If you are busy with business and don't have time, my son doesn't mind going to see the patriarch for you."
King Zhennan couldn't help but think of Xiao Fang's words. Xiao Yi's temper is becoming more and more perverse now. Since he is only thinking about putting up the family tree of Nangong, if he procrastinates, he might do something, so he might as well just let it go. His mind is. Anyway, the Nangong family was granted the marriage by imperial decree, and they can't divorce if they want to. Sooner or later, they will have to go to the family tree.
Thinking of this, King Zhennan endured it anyway, and said with a straight face: "Although Mrs. Nangong has been married to our palace for more than a year, this king doesn't know her temperament very well. I planned to watch her for a year and a half. Then upload the genealogy. But what your mother said is true. You and the Nangong family were married by the emperor. The emperor's vision is naturally trustworthy. Forget it, for your mother's sake, I will go to see the patriarch in person tomorrow. Open a shrine in the future."
Little Fang mentioned it
Xiao Yi frowned and remained calm.
The king of Zhennan took a sip of tea and continued: "It was not easy for your mother to raise you up, and she worked even harder for your affairs. She was full of love for her mother, but she didn't get anything in return. You are always so unfilial. I am sorry for your mother." ?"
Xiao Yi has been scolded a lot since he was a child, and he has long been used to it, standing there lazily, his mind has already flown to the other side.
Although he was the one who first proposed the establishment of the family tree in the ancestral hall, why did the Xiaofang family "intercede"? Naturally, Xiao Yi would not naively think that she really had to "reform her mistakes and become better", and there must be a purpose!
But no matter what her purpose is, the most important thing now is to get the family tree on the stinky girl.
Nothing can stop it!
In order not to cause trouble, Xiao Yi allowed Zhennan Wang to ramble on for a long time without replying. Finally, King Zhennan heaved a sigh of relief, pointed to the chair and said: "Sit down... You have been to Kailian City, how is the situation, and you haven't reported to the king yet."
Xiao Yi couldn't help sneering.
For more than a year, the reconstruction of Kailian and the mansion has not seen my father worry about it, but now I am thinking about Kailian City. Is this because I am afraid that I will "offend" the envoys of Baiyue if I don't do it thoughtfully
Based on Xiao Yi's understanding of King Zhennan, he is sure that he guessed at least seven points correctly.
Thinking of this, his face remained calm, and he said: "Father, Kailian City has recovered 70% to 80% and the people have returned one after another to live and work in peace and contentment. I believe that the restoration of the former prosperity is just around the corner."
The King of Zhennan looked at Xiao Yi with complicated eyes. Although Kailian City is not under his jurisdiction now, how could he really know nothing about the situation in Kailian City? The people under him are quite capable, and they manage the two cities of Fuzhong and Kailian in an orderly manner. It's just that those people are just as willful and reckless as this rebellious son, with no regard for the overall situation!
For the sake of the peace in southern Xinjiang, he would open Liancheng to Baiyue for trade, but Cheng Yu ignored the order of himself, the King of Zhennan, and locked the city gate without authorization, which is simply unreasonable!
Xiao Yi was very clear about Zhennan King's thoughts, and said bluntly: "Father, the envoys of Baiyue have returned to Baiyue, and the matter of opening Liancheng is over."
Just go back like this?! King Zhennan stared slightly in disbelief.
The envoy of Baiyue has gone back? The city of Kailian was not opened, and the army of Baiyue did not push the border. So, it was this rebel who resolved the war? What did he say to the envoy of Baiyue
King Zhennan couldn't bear to ask any more questions, so he could only swallow his doubts.
His expression became more and more complicated. On the one hand, he felt that the eldest son had indeed grown up, and he no longer needed to rely on him in many places, but on the other hand, he felt that his authority as the father had been challenged...
After Zhennan Wang calmed down his thoughts, he said coldly: "Ayi, my father knows that you have grown up and have your own opinions, but as the son of the eldest son, you should put the overall situation first, and don't let your own opinions go. Small temper, you only act on the spur of the moment and don't know how to measure it. Have you ever thought that a decision of yours will affect Nanjiang..."
