Tian Minyan walked out of the study, looked up at the sky, and saw a clear blue sky. She felt extremely calm. She didn't like the guessing game. She made it clear that it was up to Yue Lao to decide what the future would be like.
"Girl, there is another imperial edict." Xiaoxing was swept in by a gust of wind, her little face was flushed from running fast, and her eyes were bright.
Tian Minyan was slightly startled, but before she could say anything, Qi Qiqi said from behind: "It seems it's time to return to Beijing again."
The imperial edict stated that the Tian family had made great achievements by growing cotton. Xuan Tian Minyan and his daughter were sent to the Jingmian Sage. Along with the imperial edict, there was also a reward of one thousand taels of gold. Qi Shiqi also received the emperor's order and was recalled to the palace to prepare to participate.
A palace banquet to welcome the envoy of Brunei.
"My guess is correct." Qi Shiqi raised his eyebrows and said.
Tian Minyan turned around and said lightly as she passed by him: "Your Majesty, you can't be proud of guessing the holy meaning."
The smile on Qi Shiqi's lips suddenly dropped when he heard this, his eyes flashed, and his face became slightly stern.
But no, how can the Holy Will be presumed? No emperor likes his thoughts to be guessed by his ministers, no matter how much the emperor values that minister or how favored he is.
It was because he got carried away for a moment!
It is nothing new for the Tian family to receive imperial edicts. This time, the Tian Min family kept a low profile. They only quietly prepared their bags to go to Kyoto.
"Brother, this is a rare opportunity to meet the saint. As the eldest son of our family, you should come forward. But this time my father and I go back and forth for two or three months, and the person in charge of the family is
No. Xiao Wu is still young, and my mother is just a woman and a child. Brother, you are now responsible for the honor of being a child. With you at home to control, others will not bully my mother and the others so shamelessly." Tian Minyan said with a look on her face.
Said to Tian Minrui seriously.
"How about I don't go and let Brother Rui go?" Tian Huairen said anxiously.
To meet the emperor, a farmer like him actually had such an opportunity. It was really worth dying for. However, he couldn't speak and was afraid of offending the saint's face. Moreover, he gave up this opportunity to meet the emperor.
The eldest son is worth more than anything else.
"Dad, you are talking nonsense again. The imperial edict said that you and your sister should go to see the Holy Spirit. If you don't go, you will be disobeying the edict. How can you replace someone else? When the emperor summoned you, there was only one sick person left.
The tone needs to go." Tian Minrui smiled and shook his head and said: "Father, don't worry that I won't have such a chance. My sister is right. You have all gone, and there must be someone in charge of the family. I am the eldest son, and I should take responsibility.
He who bears this burden."
"This is also my fault." Tian Huairen scratched his head in disbelief.
"You are overjoyed just because you went to see the emperor. You are not as happy as your son," said Luo angrily.
"Mom, don't blame dad, dad is thinking about his eldest brother." Tian Minyan said with a smile.
Luo Shi packed up some small items and muttered: "To be honest, I am both happy and sad that the Holy Will is so great this time. I am just worried that you, who are not familiar with life in Kyoto, will suffer any loss. I heard
, In Kyoto, noble people gather together, Nannan, you are smart, but a bit impatient, but don’t fight for the moment."
"Mom, don't worry. The prince also said that when we arrive in Kyoto, we will stay in the palace. Moreover, since we arrive in Kyoto, we will definitely go to visit Mrs. Liu."
Madam Liu is Madam Gaoming, and Sir Liu is also a third-grade official. If anything goes wrong, she should be able to help. Moreover, even if things go wrong, there is still the King Xian as a great supporter!
Luo Shi paused his hand and said hesitantly: "Is it bad to live in the palace?"
Tian Minyan knew what she was worried about, so she smiled and shook her hand and said: "Even if we don't live in the palace, we will live in the inn. We came here under the imperial decree. As long as we are careful and don't make any mistakes, no one will make things difficult for us.
.”
"That's good."
Tian Minyan shook her head with a smile, and winked at Tian Minrui. The brothers and sisters walked out, leaving space for Luo Shi and Tian Huairen, and they returned to the east chamber.
"Brother, Kyoto is a long way away. If my father and I go there, we will definitely not be able to come back within two months, and the family will be left to you." Tian Minyan said, "I am taking Xie Chengzhong with me this time to see how the situation is there.
, if it succeeds, we will also buy a shop."
"Don't worry, I will take care of my mother, brothers and sisters."
"Brother, actually I'm not worried about heretics coming to cause trouble, but over there." Tian Minyan pointed in the direction of the old house and said with a cold face: "The people over there have never stopped. Look, today
I just came here to take the opportunity to ask for money. I'm afraid that if we go, they will make trouble for my mother, and she is a soft-tempered woman. You should keep an eye on her and don't let her be bullied."
Tian Minrui sneered and said: "How dare they? If they are shameless and the trouble is too ugly, don't blame me for not respecting family ties."
"As the saying goes, you won't shed tears until you see the coffin. If they make a big fuss, just give them some trouble. Now, it's not the time for us to act based on their faces." Tian Minyan narrowed her eyes and looked sinister.
, thought for a while and then said: "Brother, before I leave, I will arrange the business operations of our family. If you encounter anything difficult, or it is related to business, you remember to go find Aunt Qin."
Qin Haitang belongs to the prince, and they also have a business partnership. If he asks for help, Qin Haitang will not say no.
"I know."
The brother and sister talked in detail about what might happen and how to deal with it, and they didn't leave until it was completely dark and late.
In the old house, Tian Huaixiao was also grinding against the old man.
"Dad, every inch of land in Kyoto is precious. The third son's family is getting richer and richer now. They live in a big house and have slaves, but we are struggling to eat! Dad, you often say that brothers should support each other.
, if you ask him to take me to Kyoto as well, maybe there will be some opportunities. Besides, it is enough to earn two taels of silver to honor our mother." Tian Huaixiao said anxiously.
After hearing this, Mr. Jiang's eyes flashed and he said, "Old man, let the third brother take the second brother and the others to make a fortune together."
"Dad, there are many noble people in Kyoto. If the third son talks to the prince, and he can take advantage of the opportunity to meet the emperor, he might be able to get his son back into the official position." Tian Huaide also said excitedly. He didn't expect that the third son's family would have such a great honor.
When it comes to meeting the emperor, many seventh-grade officials have never seen the emperor in their entire lives. The third child is just a kind of person, but he has such honor, which makes him jealous just looking at him.
The old man glanced at the eldest son. Ever since he was dismissed from office and imprisoned, the eldest son had gray hair on his temples. He looked much older and more depressed. This made him really sad. His once high-spirited son had become
How can you not feel sad like this?
But the old man also knew what was good and he sighed and said: "Don't worry about whether these things are there or not. Boss, if the emperor doesn't remember your past, it will be regarded as God blessing the Lao Tian family. Otherwise, the whole family will...
"
Tian Huaide's face turned pale, his lips tightened, and he immediately shrank aside and did not dare to speak.
He understands what the old man means. The fact that the emperor doesn't care doesn't mean that others don't care. He has to be intentional about it. It's easy to be thrown into jail again. The worst thing he's afraid of is that he will be killed and drag down the whole family.
When Tian Huaixiao saw it, he hated his boss even more for being a laggard, so he said, "Dad, shall I go to the general manager? I'm not the eldest brother, so it doesn't matter. Besides, I'm not going to be an official, so I just go and take a look over there."
If there are any opportunities, what kind of business can be done?"
"You just stay at home, and it's up to you to do business?" The old man shouted, and when he saw that he was still talking, he said: "If you don't obey me, just go and let me accuse you of being unfilial.
"
The old man actually didn't want them to go, but one was a criminal and the other had such a stubborn temper. He was only afraid that the second son's conflict would offend some noble person and bring disaster to the Tian family.
Tian Huaixiao's expression changed when he heard this, he snorted, then stood up and said: "Dad, I won't let you be partial like this. Brother Lin is going to study outside to earn fame, let alone the third child, he's living a good life
I am better than anyone else, but what do I have? My son, who has no hope of being able to study, deserves to work in the fields. My fate is bad!"
As soon as he said this, he sat down, and a grown man sat on the ground wiping his tears and crying.
"Second brother, how old are you? You still imitate those girls who drop golden beans without fear of embarrassment." The old man's face turned blue and white at that.
"I live such a useless life, why should I be afraid of being embarrassed?" Tian Huaixiao said with a sneer: "Pagans can see it clearly, dad, you are so biased."
"Okay, okay, I'm biased and I've treated you wrong." The old man snorted and said, "How rich is the third child? What did he have when the family was separated? It wasn't just six acres of land. He has what he has today.
Wealth and honor are all earned by them, who has given them a helping hand?"
Tian Huaixiao was choked and speechless for a moment.
"If you feel that I'm suppressing you and preventing you from becoming rich, then you can divide it separately and I'll give you six acres of land. No, since you have a large population, I'll give you eight acres and treat it as compensation from the boss.
, you should also follow the example of Lao San, take care of your family, and earn a fortune and dignity." The old man sneered.
Tian Huaixiao was a little panicked. What could he do if he divided eight acres of land by himself? Even if it were divided, it would not be divided now. The Sanlang family had not gotten married yet, and the Erlang family also wanted to arrange a marriage, which all cost money.
, where did he get the money?
He is not extremely stupid. The family has not been separated yet, and the marriage of his two sons should be private. Thinking of this, he pretended to be miserable and said: "Dad, what can I do? The Erlang family has no name."
If you don’t get married, you will run away. Your great-granddaughter is so young, how could I bear to have her without a mother? But if you want to get married, where will you get the money? I have no choice, so I thought of going to Kyoto to see you.
Are there any opportunities?"
"Don't worry, I've prepared the money for Erlang's marriage. I'll arrange it for them someday." Seeing that he was willing to give up the steps, the old man followed the steps.
Tian Huaixiao felt happy and had nothing to say. He rushed to his third son tomorrow to cry about his poverty, which was the same thing.
