Chapter 888: country uncle
Xiao Xun asked, "Are you going to end this year?"
Xie Mingcheng was stunned for a moment. He didn't know if there would be Qiu Wei this year, so he said, "I don't have any plans for this. I think about it in a few years before I finish."
Xie Mingxi said from the side, "Brother-in-law, brother-in-law, is there an autumn bed this year?"
Xiao Xun couldn't help but smile more on his face, he raised his eyes to look at Xie Mingxi, raised his hand and touched his head, "Why, you want to end too?"
Xie Mingcheng couldn't help but lowered his head and laughed, "Fifth brother, you haven't entered school yet, do you plan to take the county exam next year?"
Xie Mingxi also knew that Xiao Xun was teasing him, so he scratched his head uncomfortably, and liked to touch his head, but he was no longer a child.
"Mr. Fan said that if I want to try to be a child student next year, I think it's okay."
Xie Zhiwei was amused by him, and nodded his nose helplessly, "Stop talking such big words, do you know how difficult it is to get admitted to Tongsheng? If you don't pass the exam, everyone will have heard it, I see you Don't think it's embarrassing."
Xie Mingxi habitually wanted to lean into her sister's arms, but when she saw her belly, she immediately stood up straight, "Sister, don't worry, I won't embarrass you. Mr. Fan told me that next February There are five consecutive exams in Li County Examination, and three consecutive exams in Li County Examination in April, and you will be a child if you pass all of them."
"Hey, why didn't you take the exam this year?" Xie Mingcheng said, "If you pass the exam, you will be a child now."
Xie Mingxi said, "I haven't prepared well in the past few years. I went with Mr. Fan to **** the grain and grass. Later, Mr. Fan asked me to learn farming from Mr. Yu. I am eleven years old this year. Mr. Fan said that next year, I will take the exam in one go. go down."
Lu Yan listened to him and said with a smile, "Then you should study hard and wait for your good news next year. If it passes, I will ask your brother-in-law to reward you!"
Xie Mingxi's eyes lit up all of a sudden, "Really? Is there any reward?"
Lu Yan made a fool of himself, "Didn't you study with Jiupin? In the future, when the little prince is born, it won't be possible for you, an uncle, to accompany you? Do you want to be promoted?"
Lu Yan talked about this, Xiao Xun couldn't help but think of Xie Mingxi calling himself "Chen" when he opened his mouth in the apricot blossom forest back then.
Xiao Wei urged from the side, "Quickly kneel down and thank you!"
Xie Mingxi was about to kneel, Xiao Xun supported him, "You really want to be promoted, have you figured out what kind of official you want to be?"
Xie Mingxi scratched his head, and looked at Lu Yan for help. Lu Yan was holding a teacup, with a smile on his lips, not intending to help him.
The corners of his eyes drooped all of a sudden, and he said in embarrassment, "Brother-in-law, I don't want to be an official anymore. Others call my country's uncle, and this official is no longer small."
Lu Yan happened to take a sip of tea, and when he heard this, he spat it out, choking so hard that he couldn't straighten up. He had never been so embarrassed before, so he got up and walked to the window, and the clever little **** hurriedly handed it to him. He wiped his face with a piece of veil, and a cloud of fire flew up on his jade-like face.
Xiao Xun couldn't help laughing, nodded and said, "Yes, Uncle Guo is indeed a very powerful official, everyone should call you Grandpa!"
Xie Zhiwei was so angry that he stretched out his hand to pinch Xiao Xun, "Your brother is ignorant, so are you ignorant?"
Lu Yan turned around, threw the handkerchief to the little eunuch, walked over and rubbed Xie Mingxi's head, "Forget it, don't listen to your brother-in-law, your brother-in-law is also a stingy one, wait until you pass the college entrance examination Try it, it’s easy to talk about rewards.”
Several people gathered around the table and had a good meal. During the dinner, Xiao Wei and Lu Yan accompanied Xiao Xun to drink a few glasses of wine, and there was no rule of "eating without speaking".
"Brother, if you are still resting in the Huangji Hall, you are too far away from here, right? I think the Maoqin Hall is very good, and the Nanxun Hall is a bit far away." Xiao Xun said.
Maoqin Hall is facing Tishun Hall, Lu Yan thought for a while, "It's good there, but it's too far away from the former court, or the South Study Room."
The South Study Room is at the west corner of Qianqing Gate, just a corner.
Xiao Xun said, "It's better to be in the Maoqin Hall in the South Study Room."
Xie Zhiwei thought that the Maoqin Palace was inside the Shiguang Gate, and that gate was equivalent to a ritual gate between the former dynasty and the rear palace, so he said, "I think the elder brother should live in the South Study Room, and the South Study Room is next to the Inner Office. Connected and spacious.”
Lu Yan didn't plan to live in the Huangji Palace at first, Xiao Xun didn't come back, Xie Zhiwei lived in the palace alone, it was too deserted for such a big palace.
Seeing that Xiao Xun was still hesitant, Lu Yan smiled and said, "There is no place to stay in such a big palace. What are you thinking about so much? With this skill, why don't you think about it, when will the Great Court be held?" , let those people come, you haven’t ordered to move the capital until now.”
Xiao Xun said with a smile, "Haven't I not been enthroned yet? With my eldest brother and the cabinet around, what should I worry about so much?"
He glanced at Xie Zhiwei's stomach, "Brother, the weather is getting hotter and hotter, I want to accompany Mei Mei to Xiangshan for a few days, what do you think?"
Xiangshan Bieyuan was used as an academy for Yang Qia, but there was also a palace there. Originally Xiao Xun's status was uncertain, so it was not easy to invade rashly. Now, although he has not ascended the throne, he is still the emperor in name, and it is only natural that he lives in the palace.
Xie Zhiwei was also taken aback. Seeing Lu Yan's brows knit together, she hurriedly said, "Ah Xun, I'm in this state, so it's not easy to go out of Beijing, right? Besides, the second sister is going to leave the court, I still think about that day, Let's go and see."
"Then wait for your second sister to leave the cabinet, and we will go to the Xiangshan Palace to escape the summer heat. Brother, you should go too."
Lu Yan had no choice but to take a sip from his wine glass, swallowing his depression. Now he understands that Xiao Xun's ascension to the throne is of no benefit to him at all.
"Ah Xun, it is impossible for me to stay with you for a long time. You also said that your second child will be adopted to me. When that time comes, I will raise a child. You should do what you should do. "
Xiao Xun chuckled, and said to himself, Mei Mei gave birth to this, and he didn't plan to have children for several years, otherwise, he would feel uncomfortable, and he was afraid that his elder brother's plan would fail.
He nodded sharply, "Yes, yes, I remember, please help me for a few days first."
Xie Mingxi said, "Lord Lu, my mother said that my sister might be pregnant with twins!"
Xiao Xun lost his composure for a moment, and knocked on Xie Mingxi's head with a chopstick, "What nonsense are you talking about, isn't it hard for your sister to be pregnant with twins?"
The second update!
