Tang Bohe did not pay attention to the eyes of others and said word by word: "Please, Your Majesty, don't let Xiaomin's son go to Annan to fight."
"Your son?" Yunxi thought for a moment and said, "Yes, your son is hereditary for thousands of households in the right guard of the government and holds the actual position of hundreds of households. For this expedition to Annan, I transferred the left guard of Yulin and the forward guard of Jinwu. , the four straight guards of the Hushang right guard and the Fujun right guard go to Guangxi, and your son will naturally go to fight."
"Do you only have this one son?" Yunxi asked again.
"Xiaomin has three sons." Tang Bohe said.
"Since you are not an only son, why do you want me not to let your son go to war?" Yunxi said calmly.
"Your Majesty, he is Xiaomin's eldest son. Xiaomin can't bear to let him die. He has not been a soldier since he was a child. I'm afraid he came back alive..." Tang Bohe couldn't control his emotions at the end. Although She didn't cry, but her eye circles were red.
Yunxi didn't seem to be moved by his feelings, but thought about it seriously. At the same time, he asked the clerk in the store to arrange a box, took Tang Bohe to the box, and then said: "If I change him, what will happen again?" Who will be sent to take his place?"
"His Majesty has many generals, and he will definitely be able to choose one to replace Xiaomin's son." Tang Bohe said immediately.
"But, should the person who replaced him go to Annan and die? Your son's life is very important, so the lives of other people's sons are not important!" Yunxi still said in a calm voice. But the words were not so nice.
Tang Bohe did not dare to speak and curled up on the chair.
"Your son is a hereditary member of a thousand households in the Ming Dynasty. He has a full-time official position. If he eats the salary of the Ming Dynasty, he should be loyal to the emperor. Now that the Ming Dynasty needs his help, he should hide in the capital and stay still!"
'If you are not willing to contribute to the Ming Dynasty, you can resign from the actual position of the Hundred Households and just be a hereditary Thousand Households without any position, living freely in the capital. This hereditary Thousand Households was awarded to you by the emperor as a reward. Because of your merits as husband and wife, you can receive only a salary without serving, and there is no need to go to war at this time; but since your son has become a full-time employee of the Ming Dynasty for the salary of a hundred households or something else, it is impossible to run away from the battle!' This paragraph Hua Yunxi also wanted to say something, but thinking that he was still his savior, he did not say anything. If not, not only would his words be more unpleasant, but he would even be slightly punished for Tang Bohe's request.
Yunxi has always believed that all officials of the Ming Dynasty, no matter how big or small they are, once they become officials of the Ming Dynasty, they must serve the Ming Dynasty. If they don't want to serve the Ming Dynasty, they don't have to take the imperial examination and become an official. You must be loyal to the Ming Dynasty and work hard for the Ming Dynasty. You must not scold the public family's mother while eating from the public family. Such people should be punished one by one if they are found, and they should all get out.
If someone wants to step aside when something goes wrong, he will not be allowed to serve as an official. If someone wants to step aside when something happens, and no one will do the troublesome things, how can the Ming Dynasty survive? If such a person has great achievements in his ancestors, he can have a hereditary title or official position. After all, the Ming Dynasty is a country where the throne is passed down by blood. It is normal for the ancestors to have merit and blessings for their descendants, but they will never be allowed to serve as officials.
"... Mr. Tang, if you only have one son, then I am not unreasonable and will naturally not let him go to war. But you have three sons and there is no shortage of people to take care of them until they die. I will never replace you. Son." Yunxi finally said.
After saying this, Yunxi stood up and left the box without waiting for Tang Bohe to say anything else.
As soon as he walked out of the box, he saw the waiter coming up with a plate. Seeing that Yunxi seemed to be leaving, the waiter said, "Sir, are you leaving now? You haven't eaten your noodles yet."
"I've rewarded you." Yun Xi said while winking at Li Bo. Li Bo immediately took out a few strings of treasure banknotes from his pocket, threw them to him and said, "This is face money." Then the group of people didn't look back.
Went downstairs.
The waiter was a little surprised, but since the customer had paid, he didn't say anything more. Looking at no one around, he walked into a private room where no customers had come yet, and ate a third of the noodles in each bowl.
One, put it on the plate and carry it down.
As Yunxi walked down, he listened to Li Bo's explanation: "Your Majesty, Tang Bohe's thoughts are not what most people think. The soldiers and generals in the guard have been serving the Ming Dynasty for generations, and they will never think like Tang Bohe.
"
Yunxi just listened and said nothing. The soldiers and generals at the guard station just didn't dare to say that, and they knew that it would be useless and would cause trouble, so they didn't necessarily think so. Although many people were willing to risk their lives for their future, most people
I prefer to live my own small life peacefully, without any great wealth, but with a stable family.
Yunxi understands this mentality very well. However, the soldiers and generals in the guards are all raised by the Ming Dynasty. At least the soldiers do not have to pay taxes to farm the land and occasionally receive weapons subsidies. The generals have salaries and privileges. Since they enjoy the benefits
, you have to fulfill your obligations.
However, Yunxi would not say such words, because there is no point in saying it, he just thought in his heart.
The Shandong Noodle House only has three floors. Yunxi and his guards quickly came down from the third floor and were about to walk out of the main door.
But at this moment, Yun He looked around and saw someone who looked familiar, but couldn't remember where he had seen him before.
He slowed down his steps, quietly pointed at the man and asked Li Bo, "Do you still remember this person?"
Li Bo followed his gaze and saw a strong man and another person sitting on the seats, drinking wine and eating appetizers, and talking about something.
Li Bo looked at him a few times and said, "Your Majesty, this is the person your Majesty met when he was out of the palace last summer."
"That time, on the way back to the palace from the martial arts lecture hall, it suddenly rained heavily. His Majesty found an inn to take shelter from the rain. At that time, His Majesty was sitting in the lobby, eating something, and saw this man."
"At that time, His Majesty was somewhat interested in the discussion between this person and another person. He also said a few words to this person and asked some questions."
Hearing what Li Bo said, Yunxi also thought of this person. It seemed that his surname was Li, but he couldn't remember his name clearly. He was doing business at the ferry in the north of the city. The business was not too small. And...
Yunxi's eyes suddenly narrowed, he stopped, walked up to the strong man named Li, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Mr. Li, do you still remember me?"
…
…
Li Zhiliang came to the city today, and naturally he didn't have anything to do. He came to the city today to discuss business with a big customer.
Yesterday, one of his big customers from Jiangbei came to the capital and wanted to discuss business with him. Li Zhiliang always had a very good attitude towards his big customers. It was just a small amount of money and a few nice words. If he could win a business because of this,
, even if he had to pay more beautiful words, he was willing to do so.
In this case, you have to make your own decisions when entertaining a big customer. It can't be too shabby, otherwise it will appear that you don't pay attention to him; but it can't be too grand, because his "big business" will be ignored by real businessmen, and they will go to restaurants that are too high-end. For him, he has to lose money even if the transaction is completed.
After thinking about it, he thought of Tang Bohe's Shandong Noodle House.
Shandong Noodle House is not a high-end place. Although the boss does have some unique skills, it is not surprising in the capital: in a place like Beijing where there are hidden dragons and crouching tigers, every chef who can open a restaurant has some unique skills. Craftsmanship is not limited to big restaurants. From this point of view, Shandong Noodle House is just an ordinary noodle shop.
But Shandong Noodle House is a very special place, because ten years ago most people didn't know what happened. When foreigners come to the capital, no matter what their status or status, they must come to Shandong Noodle House once.
So Li Zhiliang called him, a big customer who came to the capital for the first time, to Shandong Noodle House. After the two of them sat down, he talked about the magic of this noodle restaurant with his puzzled eyes.
But just as Li Zhiliang was talking, someone suddenly tapped him on his shoulder. When he looked back, he saw a somewhat familiar face.
"It turns out to be Mr. Sun. Is Mr. Sun also eating in this shop today?" Li Zhiliang immediately stood up and said respectfully.
Unlike Yunxi who had to recall it and even need to be reminded by others, Li Zhiliang had a very deep impression of Yunxi at the beginning: that was the only time he talked to a very high-status young master, not to mention just the past year, it was the past ten years. He will still remember.
This young master who claims to be surnamed Sun is much more important than the big customer. If he offends the customer, it will just mean that the business cannot be done. If he offends the noble prince, he may not be able to gain a foothold in the capital. His backstage may not be as good as other people's servants. So he is very Respectfully.
"Well, I remembered some things from the past today, so I came here to take a look." Yunxi said casually, and then said to him: "I have something to ask you for."
Li Zhiliang was very surprised: What could such a noble man do to him? He subconsciously wanted to shirk it: it is better to have less involvement in the affairs of important people. Although he got a lot, the risks were also high. Although he was not rich, he He is not just a poor person, it is best to live his own small life.
"Young Master, I'm just an ordinary citizen. I'm just doing some small business. Is there any place that the Young Master can like?" Li Zhiliang excused himself very politely.
Yunxi ignored him, but looked at the person sitting opposite. The person had just concluded that he was someone he could never afford to offend. While thinking about how Li Zhiliang could be related to such a person, he immediately He stood up and said, "Since this young master is looking for Li Zhiliang, the business between me and him is not that important, so I'll take my leave." Then he walked out of the Shandong Noodle House with his servants.
Yunxi turned his head and looked at Li Zhiliang again without saying a word. Li Zhiliang let out a cry of sorrow in his heart, but did not dare to show it on his face, and said: "Why are you looking for me, young master?"
"This is not the place to talk. Come with me." Yunxi said.
Li Zhiliang had no choice but to follow him out of the Shandong Noodle House.
