Chapter 906 Be Prepared for Danger in Times of Peace
"What we know is only superficial. We are far away, and the news is slow. I'm afraid we can't grasp the specific details. There have been rumors about the official's poor health for a few years. Now, the whole hospital has been alarmed again. I'm afraid the situation is not good."
Wu Anren said, pressing the corner of his eyes with a handkerchief,
"The princes of the royal family all hold real power and are quite young. I am afraid they will be very busy this year."
Everyone knows that royal affairs involve the court. Whenever there is any trouble in the official family, several princes will definitely fight to the death.
This year, I'm afraid it won't be peaceful.
"We women don't know much about the affairs of the court. We hope that the world will be peaceful and the people can live in peace."
Listening to the news brought by Wu Anren, Bai Yunxi's heart moved. Xiao Wu mentioned last time that the officials were in poor health and several princes were secretly planning to do something.
There is no small matter in the Tian family, but if it concerns the dragon throne, how can there be peace?
With this kind of news coming out, it seems that the official's health has really hit a rough patch.
At this time, it all depends on the personal abilities of those princes and grandsons.
It is simply impossible to sit in that position without seeing some blood.
The war for reserves is about to begin.
Sorry~
"It's scary that such a big thing can spread. But we are far away, so we shouldn't be affected."
After hearing this, Wu Anren shook his head,
"Having said that, as ministers, many of us are often unable to control ourselves... I hope my worries are unfounded, and maybe things will get better after a while."
Her master is a general judge, and there are troops stationed in the area. If there is any abnormal movement of the soldiers stationed there, it will be a big risk.
Otherwise, the Wu family clan would not rush to send letters in time for the New Year to alert the master.
Many soldiers of the imperial court are kept in one place. Whenever there is a signal to assemble, the world may be in chaos.
Listening to Wu Anren's inner voice, Bai Yunxi's heart skipped a beat. What he said was so mysterious. Could it be that the emperor's life was really in danger?
It's just a minor illness, but it won't spread so horribly.
Wu Anren revealed a little to her and didn't stay long, got up and left.
Bai Yunxi personally sent the people to the gate and watched their carriage go away before turning back.
Send the others to rest, look at Xiao Wu, and recount to him the news revealed by Wu Anren.
"Whether the news is true or false, you just need to have an idea in your mind. The turmoil in Kyoto has little to do with us."
Xiaowu's new official took office, and he had no attachment to any forces, and he never took sides. The new emperor was indifferent, and it basically had nothing to do with them.
"What mother said makes sense. I will edit a letter for my senior brother later and send it as a new year gift.
He is not in the whirlpool, and the chance of being affected is low. But as a court official, it would be unrealistic to really put yourself out of the situation.
No wonder Mr. Wu looks serious today, it turns out he got the news.
"This is the power of the clan. The Wu clan in Kyoto can get news about everything as quickly as possible, which is enviable."
Bai Yunxi looked at Xiao Wu and sighed softly,
"I have asked Wenyou to adopt some orphans for training in another hospital. I don't know when they will be used. In the future, if you want to pursue an official career, you will have no one at hand. Although it is slow to train your own people, the good thing is that you can rest assured."
After listening to his mother's reminder, Xiao Wu was stunned for a moment and looked at his mother in surprise.
"You asked Sister Wen to adopt orphans? Do you want to train people?"
How could my mother be so aware?
Listening to Xiao Wu's question, Bai Yunxi twitched the corners of her mouth and rolled her eyes at him.
"Why are you so shocked? This idea came to me from the day you came to Beijing to take the exam. After you set off, I felt very panicked and felt uneasy, so I asked Wenyou to protect you secretly. From that moment on, my mother was here I think if there were more people like Wenyou around me, I would have more confidence no matter where I go.”
"When I came to Fucheng, I asked Wenyou to buy a yard, adopt those homeless orphans, and train people. With people, there will be protection around me, and I can rest assured. Like the illegal salt case a few days ago, That’s the best proof.”
Listening to his mother's worries, Xiao Wu pursed his lips, so that's it.
Whether it is a scientific research assassination or a salt illicit case, Sister Wen is a crucial part. Although Cheng Qian and Cheng Ye can reach out well, they are not even close to Sister Wen.
"How many orphans has mother adopted now?"
He went to take a look when he had time. Originally, he asked Cheng Qian and Cheng Ye to cultivate talents secretly, but so far the results have been minimal. Unexpectedly, his mother was more active than him. It was him who was incompetent as a son.
"Wenyou said that out of the original twelve children, two more were eliminated and planned to be left to the fourth child. Later, they arranged to visit the factory in the orchard."
Bai Yunxi looked at him and chuckled, "Two of them are pretty good girls. I will keep them for your wife later. She will be by your side and you will feel at ease when you have someone in your hands."
After listening to his mother's arrangement, Xiaowu's eyes narrowed, and he bowed to his mother and gave a big salute.
"Mother has to worry about it. My son originally thought that after high school, his mother would enjoy the blessings. Unexpectedly, it would make his mother have to work hard and plan for his son. My son is ashamed of your teachings."
"I am a mother, and it is my responsibility to plan for my children. We can't compare to the foundation of our family, but as the old saying goes, long-term planning is to plan for descendants. Let's plant trees for our children to enjoy the shade, and sooner or later we will become a big family."
Baiyunxi rubbed the rim of the cup and chuckled.
"Parents love their children, and they have far-reaching plans. The son is ashamed of himself." Xiao Wu said, lifted up his robe, knelt down on his knees, and solemnly knelt down.
"You kid, it's so cold, be careful of the cold air. Get up quickly, you and I, mother and son, why do we need these empty formalities?"
Bai Yunxi put down the teacup, walked forward, helped the man up, and whispered,
"It is said that a new emperor has a new minister. If the court is really in turmoil and the new emperor takes the throne, it is hard to say whether you, the new champion, will be remembered. But these do not prevent us from being prepared at all times. As long as we seize the opportunity, we can jump up."
"Mother is right, son will keep it in mind."
Hearing his mother's awakening, Xiaowu was shocked. He didn't expect that his mother, who was confined to the backyard, had planned so much for him. Every day in the yamen, he would occasionally test each other among his colleagues. Especially the people on the prefectural side, the news was always much faster than him.
Every time at this time, he especially hoped to expand his network as soon as possible so as not to be led by the nose.
But some things are easier said than done. He has been planning carefully, but he didn't expect his mother to be faster than him.
"Okay, it's enough for you to know about this. Standing in a different position, the thoughts are naturally different from before, just think of it as being prepared for danger in times of peace."
"Mother is right."
In a blink of an eye, it was the Lantern Festival.
The annual Lantern Festival in the prefecture city is still held at the Bihu Lake in Dongcheng.
