“Is Chief Xi dying?” Imperial Censor Xiao asked.
Although he had arranged a marriage with the Xi family, the two families weren’t very close. The Chief Justice Xi didn’t attend court these days and stayed at home to report his illness. However, there were also rumors that Chief Justice Xi was dissatisfied with the new emperor’s harsh treatment of the
Wang family.
It should be known that Chief Justice Xi was not only a chief justice, but also the teacher who had taught the new emperor for half a year. He had already been honored as the Grand Preceptor.
Emperor Yong Ping was giving Tingwei Xi face.
Therefore, as soon as the new Huangfu Emperor ascended the throne, Chief Justice Xi reported his illness at home. To outsiders, there was a lot to say.
“As people get older, it is inevitable that they will have headaches and fever. However, it should not be a serious illness. The emperor has also sent a royal doctor.“”However, Chief Justice Xi is in his sixties after all. It’s true that he intends to resign.” Xie Xian smiled.”
Everyone knew that.
“Did you know that someone named Chief Justice Xi Xi dragged the Wang family incident into the matter and said that he was dissatisfied with the new emperor?”Sikong Xiao went on and on, not thinking much.
Xie Xian shook his head.
“Chief Justice Xi is the emperor’s teacher, an elder of three dynasties. My son-in-law guessed that Tingwei Xi was planning for his family and had no choice.”
” You mean,” Censor Xiao said,’”‘Do you want Minister Xi to take him as the chief justice?”
Sikong Xiao stroked his beard.”
“That’s right.” Xie Xian said with a smile.
After all, Tingwei Xi was in his sixties and was almost seventy. It was time to make room for his children and grandchildren.
Now that he was retreating, he wanted to lift his son up and protect his grandson.
Speaking of the Xi family, the Di grandson offended Xie Xian and was dismissed from office. On the contrary, Xi San, the son of a concubine, had a better future than the other Di grandsons. At a young age, he became the assistant minister of the Yellow Family because of Xie Xian’s recommendation.
When the new emperor ascended the throne, he intentionally promoted the Xi family. Other than making the eldest grandson of the Xi family the assistant minister of the Ministry of Works, he filled Wang Lun’s vacancy.
Because Xi Shao was working in the Yellow Gate, he had many contacts with the new emperor. The new emperor intended to promote him when he ascended the throne and let him be the prefect of Linhai.
Normally, this position would be fought over like crazy. If a high official was transferred back to the central government in the future, it would be a political achievement. They would be promoted faster than others.
However, the current situation was different. Chief Xi could see that the local officials were ready to make a move. Whether it was the Song royal family or other ambitious local officials, they could rise up at any time and take the throne.
During times of peace, they enjoyed life in the local areas. Once chaos broke out, no one knew what would happen.
No one could guarantee that someone would be born as a general and would be able to make contributions. More people didn’t even know how they died. After they died, they might even be tortured and collude with the enemy. This wasn’t unprecedented.
The Xi family was considered a century-old aristocratic family with a deep foundation. They had a master-disciple relationship with the new emperor.
They were like the sun in Jiankang. There was no need for them to go elsewhere to fight for their future.
Therefore, Tingwei Xi killed two birds with one stone.
He was already sick. The Emperor couldn’t possibly send his grandson somewhere else at this time, right?
It was fine for others, but the new Emperor had just ascended the throne, and his foundation was still unstable. He had also dealt with the century-old Wang family like a storm. This was a time when he needed the support of the aristocratic families, so he would not be unhappy with the Xi family over such a small matter.
It was just that Xie Xian had kept these words to himself and did not even say it to the Emperor.
It was true that the Xiao family was his Yue family, but after all, there were too many people and too many gossips. If word got out, it would not be good for the Xi family or the Xie family, so he naturally kept his mouth shut.
Since Sikong Xiao had asked him, he would tell him what he could. As for the deeper plan of Chief Justice Xi, he didn’t reveal it.
Yang Shao knew that he was not liked by Sikong Xiao, and his father-in-law also had to take Sikong Xiao’s opinion into account. Therefore, he rarely participated in family gatherings. He did what he had to do, and he tried to talk less and watch more.
Unlike Xie Xian, who seemed to naturally be the center of attention wherever he went.
Even in the Yue Clan, Xie Xian’s attitude was only more amiable and humble than before. Sikong Xiao and Censor Xiao never looked down on him like they did to juniors. Instead, they treated him as if he was an official of the same dynasty. Whether it was his speech or attitude, they were very respectful. Comparisons were fatal, and goods were useless. On the other hand, she was much more casual with him. She still couldn’t stand it.
Of course, he understood the reason behind this. It was all Xiao Jing ‘ai’s doing. Without her, he would not be where he was today. In front of Emperor Yu Heng, he had already soared into the sky.
just like that, men had their own topics to talk about, and women had their own topics to talk about. Xiao Jing ‘ai and his wife were surprisingly consistent. They both played the game of silence is golden.
Yang Shao said little and made little mistakes. He has always been like this.
Xiao Jing ‘ai, on the other hand, was different. In the past, she would jump out from time to time to annoy others. This time, she actually ate the entire meal quietly.
Xiao Baoxin didn’t believe that Xiao Jing ‘ai would set an example for the sake of Censor Xiao’s birthday. She wasn’t a person who could see the big picture and would blindly climb up the ladder.
What parents and relatives? Who knew who?
If you can lend me strength, I’m your father. If you can’t, I don’t care if you die or not.
He was such a selfish and brainless person.
She felt that Xie Xian had hit the nail on the head, and she was holding it in.
Xiao Baoxin sat for a long time and his waist was sore. He walked out of the house with Xiao Miaorong to take a walk in the courtyard.
The mansion that Censor Xiao bought later was not as big as Sikong Xiao’s, but it was quiet and quiet, and the scenery was pleasant.
Xi Shao rushed over from outside.
He was still the assistant minister of the Yellow Gate, so he couldn’t come out without permission. Seeing him walk quickly and sweat profusely, Xiao Baoxin’s heart trembled.
“.. Eldest Lady, Third Lady.” Xi Shao didn’t expect to see these two first. He quickly went forward to greet them and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
From the looks of it, he wasn’t just here to celebrate his future father-in-law’s birthday.
“Is there something urgent?” Xiao Baoxin hurriedly asked.
Xi Shao hesitated for a moment.” Jiang Prefecture Governor…” King Jin ‘an has rebelled.” He knew Xie Xian. He treated Xiao Baoxin like his eyeball. He would tremble from the glare if he took a second look at him, so when she asked him something, he naturally did not hide it.
This matter couldn’t be hidden anyway. If he didn’t say it, it would be an outsider.
Xiao Baoxin was shocked.
With the current turmoil in Daliang, it was only a matter of time before someone rebelled. However, the governor of Jiangzhou was not an ordinary person. It was originally held by Song Yicheng, King of Jin ‘an. He was only eleven years old and was a vassal king conferred by Emperor Yuheng before his death.
It was almost at the same time as the first batch of provincial governors who entered the capital. They came to Jiankang, but he had just been assigned.
During the battle between the new Emperor and the deposed Crown Prince, King Jin ‘an was not in Jiankang at all.
The new Emperor had intended to give him a new position after he ascended the throne. The imperial edict had just been issued and Xiao Baoshan was promoted. Wasn’t he the Jiang Prefecture’s governor?
Now that he had rebelled, would Xiao Baoshan still be good?
