379: Teachings to Xie Kun

After Xie Kun heard what the old man said, his pretty face was obviously a little tangled. His eyes looked straight at the old man, and then he said, "My father said that if I meet someone who cannot be beaten, let me go to the East Palace to ask the Crown Princess to make the decision. The Crown Princess is powerful, and anyone dares to beat her!"

Su Xinyi: !!!

What did Jie Jinglue teach the child!

Everyone in the room was shocked. For the first time, they found that Jie Jinglue, the son-in-law of the Su family, was not ordinary thick-skinned.

Wasn't he praised as a Confucian general?

Xie Kun looked at the silent adult, rolled his eyes, turned around and ran to Su Xinyi, raised his head, looked at her and asked: "Aunt, will you make the decision for me?"

Su Xinyi was angry and laughed. When others mentioned her, they called her the Crown Princess, and when they opened their mouths to her, they called her aunt. This kid's brain turned very fast.

She looked at him and said in a serious tone, "It depends on what you did. If you bully others and provoke me unreasonably, I will spank you first."

Xie Kun was stunned and subconsciously covered his butt. Isn't this different from what his father said?

The fourth lady looked at Xie Kun's cute little appearance, stretched out her hand to bring the child to her side, looked at Xinyi and smiled, "Why are you scaring him? Such a young child, what can he understand? You have to teach him slowly."

Su Xinyi thought it was not necessarily the case. Xie Kun's eyes were bright, and it was obvious that he didn't know nothing.

The child's biological mother died early, and his maternal family often used him to fight with Jie Jinglue. He grew up in a place where people's hearts were complicated. The intelligence of children often exceeded adults' imagination.

After seeing her, Xie Kun mentioned her identity in every word and sentence. What does this mean?

First, he got accurate information from his father. He was someone he could trust and rely on, so he mentioned himself in everything he talked to others. Because of his status, in the capital, except for His Majesty and the Queen, as long as he did not violate His Majesty's bottom line, she could basically walk sideways.

He knew how to suppress.

Second, this child had no sense of security. Su Xinyi understood this feeling too well. She was like this when she first came to the capital in her previous life. She always wanted someone to let her rely on.

It's not that I can't do it, but I don't know how to make a choice.

Now looking at Xie Kun, it's like seeing myself making a choice at the beginning. In the previous life, I made a very bad decision and chose the wrong path.

Now, she doesn't want Xie Kun to go her own way.

Because she is too smart, she will believe in her own choices more and it is easier to go all the way.

Su Xinyi herself is like this.

Wisdom will hurt. In the previous life, Su Xinyi lost herself.

Now looking at Xie Kun, she wants to help this child. Such a smart child should have a brighter future.

He shouldn't go astray.

Xie Kun was pulled to the side by the fourth lady, but his eyes were still looking at Su Xinyi, his lips slightly pursed, his eyes were smiling, but deep in his eyes was the hesitation that Su Xinyi was familiar with.

She walked over, squatted down and looked at him, and said to him seriously: "You come to the capital to study, learn more knowledge, and improve your martial arts. Other things are not important. As long as you study hard, study steadily, and walk the bright road, I will protect you, how about it?"

Xie Kun looked at Su Xinyi in surprise and blurted out: "No other requirements?"

As long as he studies well?

It's that simple?

Su Xinyi was very sad. Among so many people present, only she could understand the mood of little Xie Kun the most, because there was no relative with blood relationship with him here, and he was sent to the capital from thousands of miles away, only uneasy and hesitant.

Even in Pingningwei, he was the most important chess piece in the fight between the Fan family and Jie Jinglue. He knew that he was very important, but he didn't know why he was so important, because he was too young and didn't understand the world of adults.

"No, there is only this one. Can you do it?" Su Xinyi looked at Xie Kun, who was about to answer. She looked at him seriously, "You have to think about it before answering. Although you are still young, you should also know that a promise is worth a thousand gold. A gentleman's words must be kept. Every promise is very important." Xie Kun's eyes were a little confused. This was different from what he learned in the Fan family and what his stepmother taught him. His stepmother was very gentle and treated him very well. He liked his stepmother and his sister very much, but his stepmother would not ask him so strictly. His words... are very important? "No hurry, think about it before answering, and live happily first." Su Xinyi stretched out her hand and rubbed Xie Kun's head, "Although the people here have no blood relationship with you, our Su family's daughter married your father and became your stepmother. This place has become your foreign home, a place you can rely on." Xie Kun understood this time, and the light in his eyes seemed to be brighter, but he bit his lip and didn't speak. The eldest lady and the others were surprised that Su Xinyi would say such words to such a young child. For a moment, they looked at each other, but no one interrupted her.

The old man half-closed his eyes, looked at Su Xinyi for a long time, and sighed deeply in his heart.

Hearing this, this child returned to the Su family...

Fortunately, the result was not bad.

Yun Jie'er had been running all the way, and now she was drowsy in the eldest lady's arms, nodding her little head. The eldest lady looked at Su Xinyi and said, "Xinyi, let the children rest. It's been very hard all the way. Let's talk later."

Su Xinyi stood up slowly while holding Forsythia's hand, looked at Xie Kun and smiled, "From now on, how about you and your sister live next door to the yard where I used to live? From now on, if I go back to my parents' home, we will be little neighbors. ”

Xie Kun nodded immediately, subconsciously relaxing his tight body a little.

The fourth lady was the most perceptive. Her eyes looked at her daughter and then at Xie Kun, and her heart froze slightly.

She cheered up, smiled, went over to hold Xie Kun's hand, and said to her softly: "Your grandmother is in charge of a large family in our house and is usually the busiest, so she asked me to take care of you and Sister Jun. Kun Son, are you willing to follow your maternal uncle?"

Xie Kun remembered that the Crown Princess called his maternal uncle and grandmother Mother, and he immediately nodded. His father said that when he arrived in the capital, he would listen to the Crown Princess and his grandfather’s family.

"Come on, my uncle and grandma will take you two to rest first. The room has been tidied up for you. See if you like it."

"My uncle and grandma took the trouble to clean up Kun'er. I must like it." Xie Kun said immediately. As long as it didn't involve serious issues like the Crown Princess, he was full of sweet words and made everyone smile.

The fourth lady happily took the two children to settle in the fourth room. Once they left, Su Qi breathed a sigh of relief and then told her family what happened along the way.

"The child is very well-behaved. He helped me coax Sister Jun on the way and didn't make any fuss. He just looked very sad." Su Qi thought of Xie Kun's behavior along the way and felt very complicated now.

The old man looked at Su Qi, "The child has no blood relationship with our Su family. This place is thousands of miles away from Pingningwei, and there is no close relative around, so I am worried and scared. From now on, the family will treat this child as Your own children are not allowed to differentiate between inside and outside.”

Everyone agreed in unison, not daring to refute what the old man said.

Besides, Xie Kun has a sweet mouth, is good-looking, and has those clever eyes. Even someone as mean as the third lady would like him.

The eldest lady went to arrange lunch, and the third lady followed him to help as soon as she saw him. The second lady had not seen her son for a long time, and now she was reluctant to leave, so she sat here and listened to her son talk about his trip south.

"I arrived in Suizhou all the way from Huaining. When I first entered Suizhou, I asked around all the way. I could hear the voices of King Yi being praised by the people everywhere. I couldn't help but be curious, because outside Suizhou, King Yi's reputation was not well known. Why did King Yi have such a good reputation when we arrived in Suizhou?"

When Su Xinyi heard what his second brother said, he looked up at him and said, "Second brother, have you seen King Yi in Suizhou?"

Su Qi shook his head, "That's not true. I heard that King Yi seldom left the palace. It is said that when the old King Yi was here, he often suppressed his concubine for the sake of his legitimate son, so the current King Yi is a bit timid, but King Yi is a good man. A kind person, ever since he became King Yi, he has exempted and exempted a lot of taxes on the land granted by the royal family, and even more so in times of disaster. "

Su Xinyi was a little surprised, "The land of Prince Yi's palace is in Suizhou?"

Su Qi nodded, "Yes, Sixth Sister doesn't know?"

Su Xinyi really didn't know, "I remember the laws of this dynasty that the palace and its land cannot be sealed together."

For example, His Majesty's biological sons, such as King Rong, King Xiang, King Wu, and King Jing, had their own land after being granted the title of king. The palace was in the capital, and the land was often very far away from the capital where the palace was located.

Fengtian was only the income of each prince, and each prince did not have the right to govern the location of the fengtian.

However, the land granted by Prince Yi's Mansion is actually in Suizhou?

"There is indeed such a law, but the exception is Prince Yi's Mansion. It is said that when the old King Yi helped His Majesty ascend the throne, His Majesty promised King Yi to return to Suizhou to retire, and the land was transferred there." Su Qi asked what he had learned. The message said.

Su Xinyi felt that things would not be that simple. If such things could be changed easily, wouldn't the laws and regulations become a joke?

However, this is obviously a royal matter, and Su Qi cannot find out the specific information.

If the land and the palace are together, something like this will happen. The palace can easily win the hearts of the people by reducing taxes. Once in Suizhou, King Yi's words are more important than the imperial power. This is not what His Majesty wants to see.

So, what does King Yi want to do?

A timid person can do such a thing if he can take action. His words and deeds are not consistent.

The old man looked at Su Xinyi and asked, "Do you suspect King Yi of being unruly?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone else in the room was shocked.

The madam frowned, glanced at her daughter-in-law, then at her grandson-in-law, then stood up and said, "You guys help me go in and rest. I'm old and can't stand being tired."

The Second Madam and Mrs. Zeng got up hurriedly, one on the left and the other on the right, supporting the Tai Madam and left.

There were only three grandparents and grandson left in the room. Su Qi's eyes looked at the sixth sister, and then at his grandfather.

Su Xinyi listened to his grandfather's words, looked up at him, and said softly: "Grandpa, I just have doubts in my heart, but I can't prove it. My eldest brother followed Mr. Shang south to investigate the case of the granary. In all prefectures and counties where granaries were robbed, follow him The state has something to do with it.”

The old man's eyes narrowed slightly, "Not sure?"

Su Xinyi nodded, "There is no evidence, so it is just speculation."

The old man looked at his grandson again, "What do you think?"

Su Qi's brows furrowed and his mind raced, and then he said, "Grandpa, my grandson has never heard of the interactions between King Yi and officials from other provinces in Suizhou."

Su Xinyi was silent again.

The old man smiled and said, "Although the land of Suizhou is not vast, it is adjacent to Huaining, Pingningwei and Licheng." After saying this, he looked up at Su Xinyi and asked, "Is the caravan being attacked? Establish a city?”

Su Xinyi nodded, "Exactly."

The old man nodded slightly, "Which prefectures are related to Suizhou?"

"Yuning, Cangnan, and Zongping are the closest to Suizhou, but when King Rong first discovered the granary, it was in Nanshang and Huishan." At this point, Su Xinyi's tone was a little subtle, "Compare the three houses of Yuning and Nanshang What separates Huishan is Huiqi.”

Su Qi was stunned, Huiqi Prefecture was the sister-in-law's natal family.

The old man chuckled when he heard this, "Zeng Zhifu is as safe as a mountain in Huiqi."

Su Xinyi thought about the meaning of this sentence, and suddenly understood that Master Zeng's stay in Huiqi was indeed not accidental but inevitable.

Your Majesty's... thoughts cannot be guessed.

The grandfather and grandson looked at each other and said nothing, but they said everything.

Su Qi was thoughtful at the side, and then said: "How about grandson leaving again?"

The old man was happy, "You are getting married this year. Let's start a family first. Your brothers will still be waiting later."

Su Qi:......

Su Xinyi suddenly became happy, "Grandpa is right, this is also a big deal, and the third brother and the fourth brother are also there. If you have anything to do, you can write a letter and ask the family guard to deliver it in person. The second brother should stay here first." Let’s marry my second sister-in-law.”

The old man nodded, "Zhao Hanlin has the most important rules. Since you are back, you will come to visit tomorrow. Don't lose your etiquette."

Su Qi stood up hurriedly, thinking that he really needed to go. He had been gone for so long. Since he was back, he should come to visit.

Su Xinyi, her grandfather and her second brother didn't talk for long before Su Jingmo and the others came back, and it became even more lively now.

When the old man saw his granddaughters, he asked Su Qi to help him back to his yard.

As soon as the old man left, Su Jingmo and others breathed a sigh of relief. They gathered around Su Xinyi and asked, "Where is the child that eldest sister sent back?"

Su Xinyi said: "Let's go and rest first. The two children are tired from the journey."

Su Xixian nodded, "The child is growing, so it's better to sleep more."

She is going to be a mother now, so she is particularly considerate and caring about her children.

Mrs. Zeng also came back soon, and she was very considerate to these married sisters-in-law, especially the three pregnant ones. She was all the treasures of the family.

Su Jingmo looked at her sister-in-law's back and winked at Su Xinyi, "Now my eldest sister-in-law is taking charge of things. I think in three to five years, my eldest sister-in-law will be able to take over some of my eldest aunt's burdens."

Su Xixian curled her lips, "Isn't this what it should be? Sister-in-law is just like an old scalper. Now that she has a son, it's time to learn how to manage the house."

When Su Xinyi heard this, she glanced at her two sisters, "What's going on with you two?"

Su Xixian glanced at Su Xinyi, still looking arrogant, and said unhurriedly: "Being a daughter-in-law is very different from being a daughter-in-law. Now think about it, it was not easy for a sister-in-law. "

Su Xinyi understood and looked at Su Xixian, "It's understandable for others to say it's not easy. Your life is going so smoothly. Why are you in trouble? In the past, you were the master of the matter. No one is more comfortable than you."

"That's right." Su Jingmo nodded. She was still working under her mother-in-law. Although the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law was very harmonious, she was not as comfortable as being the master of her own affairs.

The three sisters were used to talking and laughing at each other. After talking for a few words, Mrs. Zeng came back with a stack of jujube cakes and said with a smile: "Try this, the cook at home has come up with it. The jujubes are boiled and ground into puree." , then knead it with dough and steam it in a pot. It is soft and sweet. My wife likes to eat this recently. "

Several people each took a piece and ate it, nodding and praising it. It tasted really good.

After eating a plate of jujube cake, Mrs. Zeng smiled and exchanged a few common words with her sisters-in-law. Then she looked at Su Xinyi and said, "Recently, the Princess of Guangping County is looking around for Princess Runyi."

Su Xinyi looked up at his sister-in-law after hearing this, "How long has it been?"

"It started in the past half month." Zeng said.

Su Jingmo sneered, "Hey, this is really rare. Yan Qiongsi finally let go of Shang Junyan?"

Su Xixian heard the words and continued, "Didn't you hear what my sister-in-law said, it was the princess of Guangping County who wanted to do it. I think Princess Runyi may not be happy with it. Speaking of which, Prince Shang went south to become an imperial envoy, and his official career was getting smoother and smoother. Why has Princess Guangping changed her mind now?"

For Shang Junyan, Yan Qiongsi caused so many things, can he give up easily now?

Su Xinyi saw that several people were staring at her, and she immediately became happy. After thinking about it, she said: "I guess it was the Queen's intention. How many people are staring at the Queen and Prince Rong now. If Yan Qiongsi causes trouble again, Come on, the Queen is the one who has the final say, and the Queen cannot let Prince Rong get in."

That is to say, compared with a niece and a son, the son is naturally more important.

Besides, what Yan Qiongsi did was indeed unreasonable.

"Princess Runyi's marriage is not something to be discussed now. No serious wealthy family would want to marry her. And the princess of Guangping County, who is from a low-class family, doesn't like her. It's a dilemma." Mrs. Zeng said straightforwardly.

"That's what she asked for." Su Xixian snorted, "To praise herself so highly, it's a shame that the royal family doesn't have a princess, otherwise this one might think that she is more noble than the princess."

"This is also a good life for others. Why are you upset?" Su Jingmo said sarcastically.

"Am I being bitter?" Su Xixian was amused, "I am pitying her."

Su Jingmo did not continue to bicker with Su Xixian, but looked at Xin Yi and asked, "Has the Queen really given up on Yan Qiongsi's affairs?"

Su Xinyi didn't know what the queen did. She thought for a while and said, "Since the Princess of Guangping County has already arranged a marriage for Yan Qiongsi, it should be the queen who put pressure on her to give up Shang Junyan completely. Otherwise, if Yan Qiongsi continues to act so willfully, Prince Rong will be implicated."
