Chapter 221
Before Shen Wuming entered the Shouting Marquis Mansion, Chu Pingshan was basically in a semi-retired state.
Moreover, the Shouting Marquis Mansion had no successors. Although it had some foundation, there was no one to carry the tripod.
Chu Youyi was just a girl. According to the court regulations, she could not inherit the title of Marquis.
When Chu Pingshan died a hundred years later, he would either pass the throne to his son-in-law or to a branch of the family.
But in any case, the decline of the Shouting Marquis Mansion was basically an established fact.
But after Shen Wuming came to the Chu family, he first made friends with Pei Mao and let Chu Pingshan return to the position of General Guangwu.
However, in the past six months, he was appreciated by the empress again.
As a result, Chu Pingshan was promoted to Jingzhao Shaoyin and entered one of the core circles of the court.
Although he is not in the decision-making level, the future is vaguely visible, and at least he can get a position as a minister.
"Thank you for your hard work, Wuming."
Chu Pingshan sighed for a long time in his heart, but did not express his gratitude in words, but patted his shoulder.
Shen Wuming smiled dumbly, "It's okay. I haven't done anything during this time in the capital."
To be honest, he really didn't do anything. He was just slacking off all day.
The only thing he was serious about was thinking about dealing with the King of Wei. Unfortunately, he has not succeeded yet.
The news from Alando was too slow, and he couldn't show it too obviously.
The house next door had been cleaned up long ago, and Shen Wuming helped his father-in-law and mother-in-law settle down.
As for my wife, she moved into the Shen family mansion.
"Our family is finally reunited!"
Shen Wuming sighed secretly.
Looking at Chu Youyi and Cao Zhuyu who were busy in the backyard, his heart was filled with happiness.
There was nothing wrong with living in Shouting Marquis's Mansion before.
But in the end, although he, Shen Wuming, did not marry into the family, he was always a gigolo.
But now it's different. Both wives have moved into their own house.
In addition, there are Little Fox, Song Nanzhu, and Minghui... Well, I shouldn't think about anything else.
Shen Wuming felt that his thoughts were a bit dirty.
With Chu Youyi and Cao Zhuyu, he had already enjoyed all the blessings of the man, but he was still coveting other women.
Chu Youyi in the backyard was making the bed while talking to Cao Zhuyu.
"So this little fox is actually a descendant of the nine-tailed fox? Did she follow my husband to repay her kindness?"
Chu Youyi looked meaningful and couldn't help muttering to herself.
Cao Zhuyu nodded, "That's right, and there's Minghui."
"It's the first time I've seen him, but I've met Samantabhadra twice before."
"According to him, my husband is the reincarnation of Sakyamuni, a natural son of Buddha."
"I see." Chu Youyi nodded, her eyes were a little vague, and she had more calculations in her mind.
Originally, she wanted to match her husband with Cao Zhuyu, Pei Zi'an, Song Nanzhu, and Cui Zu'e.
Now, Cao Zhuyu has been taken down, and Pei Zian is also a done deal.
The only thing is that the husband and Zian, the two authorities, are not aware of that kind of feelings.
On the contrary, both families are secretly in contact, and it will not take long.
Cui Zu'e's progress is a bit slower, but it may not take much effort.
After all, there is the previous preparation.
As for Song Nanzhu...others may not know what this best friend is thinking, but how could she not know?
Now Chu Pingshan is the Shaoyin of Jingzhao, and the position of General Guangwu is vacant.
The court has already issued a document to promote the idle Song Huai'en to General Guangwu.
In theory, Song Nanzhu should stay in Zhongshan County.
Now he is eager to follow her to the capital, is it really as he said, to see the style of Luoyang?
What is there to see in Luoyang?
Chu Youyi knows better than her whether he is thinking about this city or the people in this city.
Now there is another little fox, and another Minghui who is a direct descendant of Buddhism.
"Since we have fate and karma, we can expand my husband's backyard."
"But..."
Chu Youyi's eyes were a little deep, "And the little Tianshi in the Tianshi Mansion?"
Chu Youyi counted on her fingers. If that's the case, my husband's backyard might not be enough.
After all, a man has three wives and four concubines. Now she occupies the principal wife, Cao Zhuyu and Pei Zian share the co-wives.
The rest of the women who enter the backyard may only be concubines.
But with their status, even if their husbands become the top scholar, they may not be able to condescend to them.
"Unless you can go a step further and raise the title, at least to be a king."
In the current title, even if you are of a different surname, you have the opportunity to be crowned king, but you can only be a county king.
But even so, it requires almost heavenly merits to get this title.
Even after many generations of founding heroes like Rong Guogong, there is no chance to touch the threshold of the county king.
But in Chu Youyi's mind, it seems that this is not a big problem for her husband.
"It just depends on whether there is an opportunity. We just need to destroy one of the Later Shu, Southern Tang and Yan Kingdoms."
Shen Wuming naturally didn't know that Chu Youyi had already started to plan for his future.
At this moment, Chu Pingshan was pulling him to ask about the recent imperial examination.
Shen Wuming told him everything, and Chu Pingshan didn't worry much.
After all, to put it bluntly, with Shen Wuming's current level, whether civil or military, he is far superior to his father-in-law.
It was just out of concern for my son-in-law that I asked a few more questions.
"By the way, His Majesty asked me to serve as Jingzhao Shaoyin because of your relationship."
"What exactly is going on? Does your Majesty have any instructions?"
Chu Pingshan suddenly asked.
Shen Wuming was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously thought of the female ghost in the dream. This seemed to be the only intersection.
In real life, he had never even met the Empress.
But it was hard to say anything at this time. He shook his head and said, "Just do it well."
"Is there any special instruction? This position was given by the imperial court, and this status was given by the people."
"As long as you are loyal to the court and dedicated to the people, you don't have to worry about the attitudes of those high-ranking officials."
After hearing this, Chu Pingshan was thoughtful.
Don't worry about the attitudes of those dignitaries?
Does this mean that he should strictly enforce the law in the capital and crack down on the crimes of those high-ranking officials?
This is not impossible.
He, Chu Pingshan, dared to participate in the reform and violated Yan Zhijian, so why should he be afraid of mere dignitaries?
"I see."
Chu Pingshan nodded, and then Su Yuee'e walked in, carrying large and small bags of things and piling them on the table.
"I brought these all from Zhongshan, Wuming. I'll pack everything you need."
At this point, Su Yue'e hesitated, then glanced at Chu Pingshan, "Husband, you go out first."
"Ah? Chu Pingshan looked stunned and pointed at himself, "Me? "
