Yunxi's next plan is to visit Qitai and his family. At this time, the fifteenth day of the first lunar month is the Lantern Festival, and customs such as guessing lantern riddles and carrying lanterns are popular. In the early Ming Dynasty, the customs of the Song Dynasty were imitated from the thirteenth to the seventeenth day of the first lunar month.
The five-day celebration of the Lantern Festival is the most lively time among the people.
Yunxi gives his subordinates a holiday these days. Of course, five days in a row is not enough. Yunxi asked them to come on time tomorrow morning and then have a holiday in the afternoon. It was now the afternoon, and Yunxi planned to go to pay homage to his old age.
, give them a surprise.
But Yunxi didn't pay attention when he came. After coming out of Chang Mansion, he noticed that the guards around him had changed, and he asked Yang Feng: "These guards all have strange faces, why are they not the same ones?"
Yang Feng said: "Your Highness, the ones you have these days are temporarily borrowed by His Majesty's guards; now the new guards to serve His Highness have been selected, so they went back and replaced them with these new ones."
Yunxi looked at his new guard, and Yunxi couldn't help but feel quite emotional.
Yang Feng looked at Yun Xi's face and hurriedly came up and introduced to Yun Xi: "Your Highness, this is the bodyguard newly assigned to Your Highness by His Majesty." After that, he pointed at them and said: "This man is called Tang Rui, and he is from Yu Lin's left guard.
"The man over there is called Liu Chuan, and he is from the Fujun Guard..." Because most of the people chosen before were from Jinwu's front guard, flag bearer guard, and Jinyi Guard. As a result, there are not many outstanding people in these guards now, so this time there are more
It belongs to other guards.
Yunxi said to Yang Feng: "Go to Jinwu Erwei's workshop."
As soon as Yunxi said Yang Feng, he knew what Yunxi wanted to do, and he said: "Your Highness!"
Yunxi repeated firmly: "Go to Jinwu Erwei's workshop."
Yang Feng had no choice but to take it with him.
Not long after, a group of them arrived at the gate of Jinwu Qianwei's workshop, and Yunxi walked straight in.
Yunxi went straight to Chen Xing's home. Chen Xing's father, Chen Baoguo, was resting at home at this time. He was directly named a hereditary commander because of Chen Xing's relationship, but if he was really asked to be a commander, he would not be able to do it.
He was a commander or something, and it was difficult for his fellow commanders to discuss his status with him, so in the end Jinwu Qianwei and Lao Zhu applied and decided to transfer him to serve in the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion, while Chen Baoguo was unemployed at home.
Chen Baoguo only had one son, Chen Xing. Fortunately, Chen Xing had a son before him. Now Chen Baoguo's entire hope lies in Chen Xing's son, Chen Yonghua.
At this time, Chen Baoguo had just sent away the relatives who came to visit him. But Chen Baoguo was still very angry. He said to Chen Xing's mother, Yang: "These people don't know how to make progress themselves, so they just want to take advantage of loopholes. I want to help them make progress."
When I serve as a servant of the Twelve Guards, the person who asked me to help him find a better official position is really shameless!"
Yang said: "It's okay if those relatives who are out of reach don't help, but if those close brothers-in-law can help, it's better to help."
Chen Baoguo said: "How can I help! The number of people in the Twelve Guards is all rated, and each spot is inherited by someone. Who has nothing to do with it? If it is really a conspiracy, then the matter will not be brought to the attention of His Highness? What's wrong with our family?
Could this and His Highness’ kindness be used on these people?”
"Didn't you see that the commanders of King Wu's avant-garde came to our house to pay New Year's greetings in the past few years? Why didn't they come this year? It's not like people have left for tea! Xing'er is dead, and Yonghua is too young to be replaced within ten years.
, How come His Highness is always thinking about us? These kindnesses must be used when it is most important!"
Just as he was talking, someone knocked on the door. Yang asked: "Who is it?" Chen Baoguo said from behind: "If those relatives don't open the door!"
Yang Feng replied: "It's me, aunt! Yang Feng."
As soon as Yang heard it was Yang Feng's voice, she immediately opened the door and said, "Why are you at this time..." Then she saw a large group of people behind her, and Yang suddenly didn't know what to say.
Chen Baoguo was sitting in the room when he suddenly stopped hearing Yang's voice. He immediately thought there was a robber and went out with his gun, ready to call for help at any time.
But after going out, I found a large group of people standing at the door. At this time, Ms. Yang knelt down and said, "Ms. Chen Yang, a citizen woman, has seen His Highness a thousand years old!"
Chen Baoguo was startled! Then he immediately knelt down.
Yunxi smiled and said: "No courtesy." Then he asked the guards to help them up, then entered the room and said: "Is everything okay at home?"
Chen Baoguo immediately said: "Okay! Everything is okay!"
Yunxi said: "I know that you only have one son, Chen Xing. Fortunately, Chen Xing still has a son so that your family will not be extinct. Chen Xing died to protect me. If your family has any difficulties, just tell me, I
If it can be done, it will be done!”
Yang seemed to want to say something, but Chen Baoguo immediately stopped her and said, "There's no difficulty, everything is fine."
Yunxi asked Chen Yonghua to be taken out again. Yunxi looked at the three-year-old child and asked, "What's his name?"
Chen Baoguo said: "It's called Chen Yonghua."
Yunxi smiled and said: "This is a good name. Although the child is still young, how about I give him a cousin name?"
Chen Baoguo immediately said excitedly: "Thank you very much, Your Highness."
Yunxi said: "It means Jinnan, and Chen Yonghua means Jinnan."
Yunxi said a few more words and left.
After Yunxi left, Chen Baoguo said to Yang, "What did you want to say just now?"
Yang said: "Since His Highness has said so, why not hurry up and ask for help!"
Chen Baoguo said: "What do you know? No matter how His Highness behaves, our family must abide by our duties! These kindnesses must be preserved until Yonghua grows up more than ten years later. Based on this, he asks for a palace guard.
It’s good for Yonghua!”
Then Yunxi went to Qin Nan's home. The Qin family was completely different. Qin Song was still an official in the East Palace, and there were countless people paying New Year greetings. Qin Nan's family also received rewards after his death, so their life was very good.
Qin Song was saying to his father Qin Shoushan: "Dad, in the future this worldly position should be given to my third brother. I am an official in Zhan Shifu and I still have a future. There is no need to point to this worldly position."
Qin Shoushan said: "No, this worldly position is yours! It is precisely because you still have a future that you want to take up the worldly position!"
"You have inherited the secular position, and when His Highness rewards you again in the future, he can make you uncle. Our family will become a noble family. You have a future and will be able to integrate into it in the future. This is also good for Qin Sen."
"But if you don't have a secular position, the rewards will have to start from the secular position. You don't look like someone who can fight on the battlefield. It's difficult to be promoted to uncle. Even His Highness has to follow the rules."
"I know that you blame yourself for Qin Nan's death in the north, but for the sake of our family, you must be the one to assume the post. To prevent long nights and dreams, I will give you the post in the name of my poor legs and feet in two years."
