#1088 Reward (Two)

??

Han Jianming was named the Duke, and all the people in the house were beaming with joy. And Xiang Zixin was the most excited one.

Holding the hand of the futon, Xiang Zixin said excitedly, "My lord has been named a prince."

The futon also had a look of joy: "Yeah! The lord is the government's mansion, and Madam, you are the first-class wife." This is really unexpected.

Just as they were talking, the master and servant heard the cry of a baby. Soon, the wet nurse Lin's mother carried Brother Ye into the house.

As soon as Xiang Zixin took it and held it in her arms, Brother Ye stopped crying. Touching Brother Ye's egg-smooth face, Mrs Xiang said with a smile, "You know you want a mother at such a young age. You are a clever child too."

Lin's mother patted her ass appropriately: "The eighth master is the flesh that fell from the lady's body, so naturally I am close to the lady."

This made Xiang Zixin very useful.

Mother Chen lifted the curtain, walked into the house and said, "Madam, the maid Ruxia in the old madam's house is here." Ruyan and Ruxia, the two big maids next to the Qiu family, were very respectable.

"Please come in!" Ruxia was very close to Ruyan and Zhong Minxiu, and she didn't like these two maids. But in the end, it is the maid next to the old lady, and face is still to be given.

Ru Xiafu bowed and said with a smile: "Madam, the old lady asked the slave to inform Madam that you will have dinner in the upper court at night." Such a big event must have a meal with the whole family.

Xiang Zixin nodded and said, "I see. Futon, you send Miss Ruxia out." To ask the little maid to send Ruxia out would be a loss for her.

After Mama Lin and the others went out, she whispered, "Madam, you are the mistress of the Duke's Mansion, and you should have taken care of these matters."

Hearing this, Xiang Zixin's face froze, and then she said nonchalantly: "I want to take the eighth master, how can I still have time to manage the central feeder." Take the central feed from Lu Xiu.

Mother Lin looked at Brother Ye and said in a mosquito-like voice, "Madam, if you don't fight, what will happen to the eighth master? Madam, the eighth master is the only direct son of the grandfather of the country." Under the name, compared with the eight masters, it is a bit worse.

Xiang Zixin's hand clenched unconsciously.

Mother Lin said: "Madam, why does the old lady still revolve around her regardless of the people in the house? Because she is the father-in-law's biological mother. If the old lady was just the stepmother of the father-in-law, she would definitely not be as beautiful as she is now. "Xiang Zixin is only the stepmother of the second master, and most of the stepsons only show respect for the stepmother, and will not be sincere and filial.

Everyone has selfishness. When Mother Lin heard the news, she was happy at first, but then she became angry for Brother Ye. Obviously he is the direct son of the eight classics, but he lost the chance to inherit the title early.

The futon turned back and saw that Xiang Zixin's face was very ugly: "Madam, what's wrong?" She was fine just now, but her face changed in a blink of an eye!

Xiang Zixin looked at Lin's mother and said coldly, "I don't want to hear this a second time, otherwise I won't keep you by Brother Ye's side."

Mother Lin's face froze, and she lowered her eyebrows and said, "Yes." She thought that Xiang Zixin thought the same as her, and she was also upset by the eighth master, but she did not expect that she was wrong.

Xiang Zixin asked Mother Lin to go out, but Brother Ye didn't let her take her away and stayed.

The futon asked, "Madam, what's the matter?"

Xiang Zixin glanced at the son in her arms, shook her head and said, "It's nothing." Zhong Minxiu is now fighting with her in the ring. If she is the master in the future, there is no place for her to stand with Brother Ye in the Guogongfu. It's just that my son is still young, so these things can't be rushed, they have to be planned slowly.

The futon looked puzzled, but Xiang Zixin didn't say anything, so she didn't ask.

At this time, Zhong Minxiu, like Xiang Zixin, was full of thoughts.

Lotus looked at Zhong Minxiu and frowned, and asked, "Second grandmother, this is a big happy event, why are you still frowning."

"I'm worried that the grandfather of the country will not confer the second master as the heir.

"A few days ago, Brother Chang couldn't bear the loneliness, so he took the servant out to buy a jade carving ornament, which cost more than 400 taels. The shopkeeper's upper house collected the debt, and Lu Xiu informed Han Jianming about it. .

Before it was replaced, Han Jianming would definitely call Brother Chang over to reprimand him. But this time, Han Jianming just asked Brother Chang to return the money to Gongzhong, and said nothing else. Brother Chang thought he had escaped, but Zhong Minxiu felt wrong. Willing to manage, expressing hope. I don't want to care, I'm afraid I've given up.

Lotus said: "Perhaps the grandfather of the country is busy, so he didn't care about it?"

"Hope!" After speaking, Zhong Minxiu said very distressedly: "Second Master and Fourth Master are brothers of the same mother, why is there such a big difference?"

During this time, Brother Hua came back twice. The first time was the afternoon that Qiu Shi came back, but he only showed one face before returning to the palace. The second time was when Han Jianming came back, and he went home for a meal. At other times, Brother Hua stayed in the palace.

Although he has only seen two sides, he is several times stronger than Brother Chang just by his words and deeds. And being able to become the prince's confidant, the ability is needless to say.

Hearing this, Lotus said, "I feel that the palace is more like the fourth master's home."

"The fourth master has grown up in the palace since he was a child. After so many years, the relationship must be unusual. If the emperor and the queen intervene, the position of the prince will definitely be lost to the husband." This is what Zhong Minxiu is most worried about.

Lotus hesitated and said, "I heard that the Empress is the most observant, and she should not interfere in the affairs of the Duke's Mansion."

Zhong Minxiu shook her head and said, "Who knows this!" Her father-in-law's attitude was ambiguous, which made her feel very uncertain.

In the morning of the next day, the government of the country ushered in the second imperial decree. This imperial decree was to canonize Han Jianye as Uncle Dingyuan.

After the imperial decree was announced, Han Jianye was dumbfounded and forgot to receive the imperial decree.

Han Jianming first apologized to the official of the Ministry of Rites who issued the imperial decree, then pushed Han Jianye and said, "What are you still doing stupidly? Take the imperial decree!" He thought that Han Jianye would not get the title, but he did not expect to get the earl, which is really unexpected. happiness.

Only then did Han Jianye come back to his senses, knelt on the ground and shouted, "Long live the emperor, long live." After speaking, he immediately stood up to receive the imperial decree.

Qiu Shi stood up, walked to Han Jianye's side, reached out to touch the imperial decree, and said excitedly, "I close my eyes now, and I will die without regrets."

Han Jianming supported Qiu Shi and said, "Mother, how can you say such unlucky words on this happy day!"

Han Jianye personally sent the officials of the Ministry of Rites out, then turned around and went to the upper house. At this time, Han Jianming was also there.

Qiu said happily: "A double noble, our Han family is about to prosper. Tomorrow, your wish has finally been fulfilled." Han Jianming has always wanted to revitalize the lintel, and now he has done it. He is very proud of being a mother.

Han Jianming said with a smile, "Jianye and I are all thanks to my mother." If Qiu's family hadn't always followed Fo Yuxi, they wouldn't be where they are today.

Qiu Shi had a conversation with his two sons, then waved his hands and said, "You guys are busy! I have someone to accompany me here!"

Seeing this, Lu Xiu asked, "Old Madam, should you hold a banquet to celebrate the arrival of Double Happiness." Lu Xiu, who was always happy and angered, was now too happy. Yesterday, I envy Xiang's being the lady of the country, but I didn't expect that I would become a countess in a blink of an eye.

Hearing this, Han Jianming shook his head and said, "The emperor and the queen advocate simplicity. Our Han family is now cooking oil again, so it's better to keep a low profile."

Lu Xiu looked at Han Jianye, nodded when he saw him, and immediately said with a smile: "If you don't have a banquet, then the family will get together and have a good meal."

This proposal, Han Jianming nodded in agreement.

The two brothers went out of the upper courtyard to the study. In the study, Han Jianye repeated his old words: "Big brother, it seems that the separation of the family is inevitable." He actually didn't want to split up. If the Qiu family knew that the two brothers were going to split up, it would definitely be very sad.

Han Jianming nodded and said, "Mother is so happy, don't tell him for the time being. I'll talk to her after a while."

Han Jianye shook his head and said, "I'll be leaving in two days. Before that, let's go tell my mother about it together!"

Han Jianming nodded.

Back in the backyard, Han Jianye followed Lu Xiu to talk about the separation of the family: "A double noble family is too prominent. If the family is separated, it will not be so conspicuous."

Lu Xiu was taken aback: "Does that mother know?"

"Mother is so happy now, so I won't talk about it to spoil her happiness. I'll tell her about it the night before I leave." Let Qiu's be happy for two days before it's too late.

Lu Xiu very much hopes to split up. Xiang Shi and Zhong Minxiu were fighting in the ring, how could she not see through it. She didn't want to get involved in the battle between her mother-in-law and her daughter-in-law, but she lived in the Guogong's mansion and was in charge of the central feeder. It was impossible to stay out of it. But the family is separated, so this matter will not affect her.

After knowing that Han Jianye was named Dingyuan Uncle, Yuan Ying broke the brush in his hand into two pieces.

Mrs Xiao was gasping for breath: "Master, you have done so many things for the emperor over the years, but you only got a second-class earl. Han Jianye didn't do anything, but he was also a second-class earl. Master, this It's so unfair." Han Jianye has also made a lot of contributions over the years, especially when he attacked Shandong, he was really fighting for his life. As long as Feng Dajun, Du Zheng, Lu Fei and others were there, he was not very conspicuous.

The blue veins on Yuan Ying's hands burst out one by one, but he still suppressed the anger in his heart and said, "What are you arguing about? What can you change if you are arguing?"

Mrs Xiao scratched her neck and said, "Master, are you willing to have such a hereditary title of three generations?" She was unwilling anyway.

Yuan Ying clenched his fists and said coldly, "What if you're not reconciled? Could it be possible to quarrel in front of the emperor and the queen?"

Hearing this, Mrs. Xiao burst into tears: "Master, Han Jianye is the elder brother of the Empress, and we can't compare. But what about Xu Wu? He has not made an inch, but he is a marquis." In fact, even a marquis is different. . Like Cui Mo, he is also a marquis, but he is the second-class marquis of the hereditary and irreplaceable, while Xu Wu's is the third-class of the three generations.

Yuan Ying was very impatient, and said, "Xu Wu is the emperor's die-hard loyal, can I compare this?" Whether it was Han Jianye or Xu Wu, both had their backs on the mountain.

Xiao Shi was extremely uncomfortable: "It's not that the emperor's rewards and punishments are clear, why is it so unfair now? I don't agree, I'm going to hand a sign to the palace to ask for clarification."

Hearing this, Yuan Ying scolded angrily: "You go to find the empress for this matter, I'm afraid you won't even have the current title." That woman might not want someone to make trouble. And he doesn't want to be that chicken.

Xiao shi cried: "What should I do then? Just endure it like this? But if you endure it this time, it will be impossible to change."

Yuan Ying said: "In the future, we will slowly plot." As long as he has made merit, the title can be promoted. Just stay in the back, there are very few opportunities for meritorious service. But he has not been on the battlefield for so many years, and I am afraid that the emperor will not trust him.

Xiao Shi was still crying.

Yuan Ying was extremely irritable: "Cry, cry, cry, can crying solve the problem?" Yuan Ying was also very aggrieved. Xu Wu's rank is lower than him, and his credit is smaller than him, but his title is higher than him. But what else can we do but accept it?

Not to mention the grievances of the Xiao family, even Qi Hao felt that it was a bit too much to make Xu Wu a marquis.

After dinner that day, Qihao asked Yuxi privately, "Mother, why did Uncle Xu Wu get the Marquis?" Han Jianye's military exploits were enough to make him an uncle. The main reason is that Han Jianming, the grandfather of the country, is in front of him, so he seems to be particularly eye-catching. As for Xu Wu, who had never been on the battlefield and had not made an inch of merit, he was named a marquis. Qi Hao felt that it was not normal.

Xu Wu won the Marquis, and Guo Xun won the Earl. Although Xu Wu and Guo Xu also contributed a lot, but they did not make military contributions to the battlefield. Oak Xi said that doing so would definitely arouse many people's dissatisfaction. But Yunqing said that these are the brothers who followed him from birth to death. Now that he is the emperor, he must treat Feng Dajun, Xu Wu and others who were lucky enough to survive. Otherwise, he is sorry for the group of people who died for him.

Qi Hao was a little surprised: "Uncle Guo Xun was made an earl, why haven't I heard of this?"

"Guo Xun has a special status, so this matter is not made public." Besides, one Xu Wu is already eye-catching enough, so don't add another Guo Xun. She could understand that Yun Qing had a compensatory mentality for doing this, but others would only feel it was unfair.

After hearing this, Qihao didn't discuss the matter, but told Yuxi about another matter: "Mother, I heard from cousin Hua that the eldest uncle and the second uncle want to split up."

"Your uncle hasn't told me about this yet." After speaking, Yuxi smiled and said, "But the tree has a big branch, your second uncle can already hold the door, and it's fine to split up the family."

"Mother, why did you make my uncle a Korean prince? Mother, I think it would be better for my uncle to be a hereditary marquis. If you do this, you will be criticized." His father was sometimes emotional, but his mother Acting has always been calm. This time, he was a little surprised.

Yuxi said, "Qihao, your uncle left everything and went to his mother. Now that I have the world with your father, I want to give back the same title as your uncle." People are all selfish, and Yun Qing wanted to treat him favorably. The brother who lives and dies, she also has the same idea.
