People's potential is forced out, which is really very reasonable. Although Yunxi only issued a decree and did not say what will happen if they fail to complete it, but because of this they are even more afraid: the Taoist sect behind them is probably fine
, but if the emperor finds a reason to abolish their real identity, the Taoist priests of their lineage will be humiliated, and they will have no choice but to commit suicide.
So they worked hard, resting for only two or three hours every night, studying the doctrine day and night, and overfulfilled the tasks assigned by Yunxi. On the 18th of the twelfth lunar month, they compiled the "General Doctrine of Taoist Preaching"
book, and then sent the book to the capital on the 24th of the twelfth lunar month through the military post.
When Yunxi saw it, he chuckled and said in a low voice: "Sure enough, people are forced out."
However, Yunxi immediately threw it aside and didn't look at it. It was already the winter vacation, so he was not in the mood to look at this thing until the new year.
Not only did he not read this memorial, but he also didn't read any other memorials yesterday and this morning except those about disasters, military affairs, etc., which he reviewed and distributed after criticizing them. They piled them on the table and waited until the next year.
Yunxi ordered Huang Ludao: "I ordered this palace to be carefully cleaned up. No blind spots can be missed. I will inspect it after the year."
"Yes, Your Majesty." Huang Lu agreed.
"But don't move those books lightly. Let the eunuchs who are literate come over and look at them so that they don't disturb the order." He ordered again.
Huang Lu secretly complained: "There are only a few literate eunuchs in the palace, and they all hold important positions. How can they do such a job? It seems that we need to talk to the secretary and ask a few literate female officials to come and help."
I don’t know what she will do with Qiao!’ But he didn’t dare to refuse and said, “Yes, Your Majesty.”
Yunxi then ordered Huang Fu to take a few copies of "Legends" of the Tang Dynasty, which he used as a distraction when he was bored, and left the palace where he usually dealt with political affairs.
"Your Majesty, should we go to Kunning Palace or Yanxi Palace next? It's almost noon, it's time to have a meal." Wang Xi said.
"First go to Chengqian Palace to see Wen Yi, then go to Zhongcui Palace to see Wen Kun, and then go to Kunning Palace." Yunxi said.
The king agreed and ordered the eunuchs to go to each palace to inform them so that they could be prepared.
Yunxi suddenly remembered something at this time and said to Wang Xi: "How is your family settling down in the capital?"
Hearing Yunxi mention his family, Wang Xi said with joy on his face: "Your Majesty, I was rewarded by Your Majesty and bought a house in the capital, and my family has been placed in the house."
"The soil and water in Jiangnan is different from that of Nanzheng, the slave's hometown. They were a little uncomfortable with it at first, but the soil and water in Jiangnan are so good. How can Sanqin compare with Jiangnan? The slave's family quickly adapted."
"The slave also spent all his savings over the years to buy 200 acres of land outside the city so that his family could have enough food and clothing. The slave's brothers couldn't stay idle and wanted to farm. They were asking local farmers to teach them how to grow crops here.
Woolen cloth."
"..."
Yunhe listened to his ramble on, and there was no look of impatience on his face. On the contrary, Wang Xi reacted after he finished speaking, and hurriedly saluted and said: "Your Majesty, I can't hold back my words for a moment. I talk too much.
Please forgive me, Your Majesty."
"It's human nature to care about your family. How could I blame you?"
"And I'm thinking that the Chinese New Year is coming soon, which is the day for family reunion; and since you took your family from your hometown in Sanqin last month, you have been busy these days and haven't had much time to spend with your family.
Together, I can’t bear it.”
"So I have decided to give you six days of leave starting from today, go back and reunite with your family, and just go to the palace and come back on the morning of the first day of the new year." Yunxi said.
"Your Majesty!" Wang Xi said in shock: "How, how can this be done?"
"I say yes! You can pack up later and go out of the palace to reunite with your family. By the way," Yunxi took out a gold bracelet and said, "I heard that your mother will be sixty after the Chinese New Year, and she is
On your birthday on the first day of the Lunar New Year, I will give this reward to your mother."
"Your Majesty!" Wang Xi took the gold bracelet from Yunxi and was moved to tears. Then he knelt on the ground and kowtowed three times to Yunxi seriously and said: "My mother is an ignorant commoner.
It's time for her to delay Your Majesty. I will thank Your Majesty for the reward on behalf of my mother."
"Get up quickly and wipe your tears. How can you leave the palace to see your family like this?" Yunhe said with a smile.
Wang Xi wiped his tears, smiled, took out his handkerchief and wiped his face, then bowed to Yunxi respectfully and withdrew.
Wang Xi's family was found by Yunxi specially by the Jinyiwei of Sanqin. Yunxi issued this order last year because he didn't express any urgency, and the local Jinyiwei didn't know that the person they were looking for belonged to Wang Xi, the eunuch beside Yunxi.
Relatives, so I just searched for it slowly. I found it in October this year and sent someone to the capital.
Wang Xi was so surprised that he hugged his mother and burst into tears. Then he settled his family in the capital.
There was naturally a reason why Yunxi went to great lengths to find his family. Not long after Yunxi came to the throne, he discovered that Wang Xi was inquiring about something with officials and businessmen from Sanqin, and later he specifically focused on officials and businessmen from Hanzhong Prefecture.
Yunxi sent someone to secretly monitor Wang Xi and found that he was inquiring about his family. At this time, Yunxi recalled that when Wang Xi first came to him, he spoke the dialect of Sanqin, so he should be from Sanqin.
Yunxi once thought about deposing Wang Xi, but even if he deposed his new eunuch, wouldn't he miss his family?
And Yunxi is different from some people. He actually doesn't trust orphans and other people who have no concerns. Indeed, because orphans have no relatives, they will not have anything to fall into the hands of others, but at the same time, it also means that they want these orphans not to betray others.
Can rely on loyalty and interests. But Yunxi has never believed in loyalty. In history, there are many examples of cannibals, Turks and Europeans using eunuchs who betrayed or even rebelled. So he felt that since Wang Xi missed his relatives
, you might as well find them yourself and hold them in your hands.
…
…
Yunxi glanced around again and saw that the eunuchs around him were very envious, so he said to Huang Lu, Huang Fu and other six family members near the capital: "Six of you draw lots, and three of you can leave the palace on New Year's Eve."
The family is reunited, and the other three can go out of the palace to reunite with their families on New Year's Day."
"Next year, the six of you will take turns. Those who are drawn to be born on the first day of the Lunar New Year this year will be born on the 30th next year. Those who are drawn to be 30 years old this year will be born on the first day of the Lunar New Year next year."
"Thank you for your grace, Your Majesty." Huang Lu and the others also knelt down and said in surprise.
Yun He smiled and said: "But you have to work hard these two days."
"My slaves will definitely work hard." Huang Fu and the other six all held back their tears and laughed.
Yunxi said a few more words to them and continued to Kunning Palace.
