Of course, what is unavoidable in the end is an incomparably luxurious reward.

The official titles were awarded as Taifu and Taibao, and additionally rewarded two hard-earned horses and countless gold and silver treasures.

After beating someone up and reprimanding the queen mother, he can also give the emperor a reward, presumably Xu Xin's No.1 since the founding of the country.

After Xu Xinxin accepted the imperial decree happily, Wang Yuyan beside her looked unhappy.

"You said that if the queen mother is stronger, it would be great to punish you and ground you!"

After Xu Xin heard this, he was full of confusion.

"Is there anything you said? My eldest lady..."

Wang Yuyan didn't speak anymore, just took Xu Xin's clothes with her small hands, and led the way after a long time.

"I just want you to spend more time at home and spend more time with me... You don't have to go out early and come back late, and you can't talk to me a day..."

"However, I still can't be too selfish... You are our hero! You want to solve problems for the emperor!" Wang Yuyan looked up at Xu Xin with eyes full of pride.

Xu Xin hugged Wang Yuyan tightly and jokingly said, "My good girl, I'm afraid I won't be able to control myself after staying for a long time, and if I'm not careful, a few more dolls will come out of the house."

Wang Yuyan blushed when she heard that, she pushed Xu Xin away and said, "Bastard! You're talking nonsense again! Hmph!"

Before the two could finish speaking, Mu Qing walked in, and hurriedly stepped forward to wrap his arms around Xu Xin.

"Are you serious? Then I will hurry up and let the emperor imprison you for a year or so!"

Xu Xin looked at Mu Qing with black lines all over his face.

"I've even thought of the names of our two dolls. We can call them Mu Ying, or Xu Ying!"

Mu Qing said with bright eyes.

"Sister Mu! No, Grandma Mu! I can recommend you to be the chief spy in Hulong Villa for your eavesdropping method..."

"Oh, look at what you said. I saw the imperial decree and wanted to come over to congratulate you, you heartless thing. If you can treat us half as good as the fat emperor wrote in the imperial decree, I will be satisfied It is." Mu Qing shook the imperial decree in his hand.

"However, the little fat emperor is not bad to you. You don't know that he ordered this imperial decree to be conveyed to all state capitals, asking them to read and study it. It is obvious that he is trying to build momentum for you and prevent someone from attacking you!"

Xu Xin tried his best to break away from Mu Qing and said, "Old Mr. Daoyan guessed the same way. He said that Xiaopang's move was to inform the world of my status in the court. He also made it clear that I am a benevolent He is a man who is loyal to the emperor and patriotic."

Before she finished speaking, Mu Qing hugged Xu Xin again, her beautiful face kept approaching Xu Xin, her eyes were full of expectation, Wang Yuyan also hugged her quickly when she saw this.

"Don't talk about it now, let me ask you, is what you said just now true or false?"

Xu Xin had a bad feeling, and looked around: "What happened just now?"

"Just about giving birth to a baby..." Wang Yuyan added shyly, not daring to raise her head.

Xu Xin was very embarrassed. He wanted to tease Wang Yuyan, but Cheng Yaojin was slaughtered, no, Mu Qing was killed halfway, and the game went wrong.

"One of you is the Duke of Zhen who gallops on the battlefield, and the other is the young master of Mantuo Villa. You are both thinking about this, isn't it good?"

While speaking, he tried hard to break free.

"You talk, you talk. I promised Xiaopang, I will go back to him after the matter is over, and I will go first."

Unexpectedly, our Master Xu is also shy!

Under Mu Qing and Wang Yuyan's "mocking", Xu Xin ran away in despair.

Chapter 76 In the Kunyi Palace, Turn Your Face Afterwards.

Cao Jixiang knelt in front of the queen mother and told the little fat emperor about rewarding Xu Xin.

After hearing this, the Queen Mother was filled with grief and indignation.

His own son actually dared to confront her for an outsider.

But when she ordered someone to fetch the transcribed imperial decree, she felt ashamed.

After the first Emperor Bintian, under the "death-taking admonition" of Xichang and the cabinet, the first thing she thought of was how to grasp a greater power of supervising the country, not how the first emperor entered the mausoleum, and how her son came to power...

If the little emperor hadn't drafted the imperial decree with sincere feelings, no one would know that Xu Xin was silently giving behind the scenes.

At this moment, the queen mother was relieved of everything.

She changed into a dragon coat and a phoenix crown, shunned Cao Jixiang, took other eunuchs with her, and went to the little fat emperor.

The chubby emperor was guarding his filial piety in the Qianqing Palace, and when he saw the queen mother coming, he was inexplicably terrified, after all, he had just issued an order to contradict the queen mother.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the Empress Dowager entered the main hall, she looked at the chubby emperor who had lost a lot of weight, immediately hugged her tightly, howled and cried, and then dragged the chubby emperor to the late emperor's coffin, crying again.

After relaxing the long-standing emotions in her heart, the queen mother took the little fat emperor's hand and came to Xu Xin.

"Xu Qing's family, let him rewind the previous story. The Ai family hopes that you can educate and assist the emperor a lot in the future."

Xu Xin looked at the queen mother in front of him, and knew that she was still a kind person after all, and she also had her own views of right and wrong. Whether she would be an enemy or a friend in the future would all depend on good fortune.

"Yes, I must do my best to live up to the entrustment of the late emperor and empress dowager."

Xu Xin cupped his hands and saluted.

Later, the Empress Dowager summoned the cabinet, Xu Xin and Cao Jixiang to discuss the matter of the emperor's coffin entering the mausoleum tomorrow.

"All the ministers know that when the first emperor was alive, he always loved the people like a son and had fun with the people. The Ai family wanted to be grand this time, so as to reflect the majesty of the royal family."

"The minister takes orders!"

"Empress Dowager, the cabinet has also drawn up several posthumous titles of the late emperors for the Empress Dowager to run for election."

Gao Gong, the chief assistant of the cabinet, stepped forward and offered a booklet.

Cao Jixiang secretly glanced at Xu Xin, then stepped forward, knelt down respectfully and said, "Please rest assured, the Queen Mother, the slaves have been arranged properly at this time."

The queen mother didn't notify her younger brother to come. It seems that she still doesn't want Dongchang to accuse the late emperor, and she still wants to support Xichang to suppress the power of Dongchang.

I just don't know if she can resist the temptation of power and keep her heart.

No matter what happens in the future, Xu Xin can only use soldiers to cover up the water and earth.

"Xu Aiqing..."

"Xu Aiqing!"

Xu Xin, who was in deep thought, finally realized that the Queen Mother was calling him, and hurriedly pretended to say it.

"I beg your forgiveness, Queen Mother. Whenever I think of the former emperor and the emperor, I feel very sad..."

The queen mother also knew the relationship between Xu Xin and the little fat emperor, and said lightly: "The Ai family will not blame you, and Xu Qing's family should not be too sad. There will be a lot of people accompanying tomorrow, and the people who want to see them off may not At least, you should mobilize the Hulong Mountain Villa, the Beijing Military Division and other departments tomorrow to ensure safety."

"Wei Chen obeys!"

After the queen mother arranged everything, it was already late at night.

Xu Xin didn't go back directly, but returned to Qianqing Palace, and saw Yuhuatian who was depressed.

"Brother, don't be too sad..." Xu Xin knew that Yu Huatian had a deep relationship with the late emperor, so he didn't know how to comfort him for a while.

If Yuhuatian hadn't been too sad recently to cause mental and physical exhaustion, plus he couldn't get away from the body, and he would go to the west factory without mentality, Cao Jixiang wouldn't know which river to dive in for a long time...

Seeing Xu Xin coming to visit and comfort himself, Yu Huatian tried his best to squeeze out a smile: "Brother, I am here, the late emperor will enter the mausoleum tomorrow, and I will guard here. If you are tired, go to the mausoleum first Go home and rest."

Xu Xin hugged Yuhuatian.

"Brother won't go anywhere, just stay here with you, and besides, Xiaopang won't let me go back."

"Then...thank you bro..."

Early the next morning, a long funeral procession was outside the palace gate, waiting for the late emperor's coffin.

The shops in the entire capital city have all closed down for the purpose of giving the late emperor a ride.

At the end of the mighty team were the people in the city, their wailing was endless, and some of them almost fainted from crying.

Xu Xin looked at the crowd, full of doubts. He didn't expect the people to support the late emperor so much.

That dog thief Cao Jixiang is still a little bit capable.

Unexpectedly, Li Si on the side, seeing Xu Xin's expression, whispered in his ear: "If you have money, you can turn ghosts around. I just don't know how much money it is."

Seeing that Xu Xin still didn't understand, Li Si pointed at an old man not far away with his horsewhip.

"The one who cried the hardest at the front was my father-in-law. I heard from him that he would get a tael of silver when he delivered it to the entrance of the imperial mausoleum. See if the group of people behind him are recruited by his old man..."

After hearing this, Xu Xin finally understood what Cao Jixiang meant by the proper arrangement.

At the second watch last night, Xu Xin was already busy inside the palace, and had no time to pay attention to the affairs outside the palace. Unexpectedly, it was the late emperor's funeral, and he could do such an operation.

"I've only heard of folks hiring people to be filial sons, but I've never heard of the late emperor paying money to make people mourn! Li Si, what happened!" Xu Xin said.

"Could it be the bad idea of ​​that bastard Cao Jixiang from Xichang..."

Li Si was actually at a loss, but he just heard from his father-in-law that someone paid them to "perform" today, so he thought about it and said to Xu Xin.

"I'm not very clear about the specifics. Last night, the Beijing Bingma Division sent people to call away the managers of the various districts. They said that they had important matters to discuss. When they woke up this morning, my father-in-law happily went to gather the neighbors. The Jingcheng Bingma Division is a subordinate department of the Ministry of War. , logically speaking, it is an order from the cabinet."

Sure enough, it is easy to spend money to do things, and almost all the people in the city are here.

It's just a show, plus layers of deductions, without 300 million taels of silver, it can't be done.

Cao Jixiang is really good at calculating, spending money from the household department to do his own affairs.

Such an unprecedented funeral has never happened since the founding of the People's Republic of China. The Queen Mother must be overjoyed. Naturally, Xichang will be indispensable for all the fat jobs in the future.

Xu Xin looked at the mighty team coldly, feeling very uncomfortable.

……

After a long journey, the long team finally arrived at the imperial mausoleum of Tianshou Mountain.

After the complicated and cumbersome sacrificial ceremony, the coffin of the first emperor was buried in the mausoleum.

At the moment when the gate of the underground palace was closed, the grief-stricken little fat emperor finally passed out because of his grief.

In the evening, after everything was arranged properly, the team began to return to the capital.

By the time Xu Xin returned home, it was already dark, but the crowd in the city did not seem to be reduced because of the curfew. Xu Xin felt that there must be something strange, and followed the team, slowly moving forward.

I saw that the old man who was crying the most was arguing with the servant.

"Wang Dianshi, what do you mean by this? I heard what you said and found hundreds of neighbors. You want to send us away for a few taels of silver now! You treat me like a little old man who is easy to bully, right?"

A man in official uniform smiled and said: "Old man Sun, you are Li Qianhu's father-in-law, we don't have the guts! However, the superiors did order us to give you this price."

After hearing this, the old man became even angrier: "It can't be done like this, but you, Wang Dianshi, came to the door personally and asked me to bring more people. Look at that Xiaolin, his voice is hoarse. Now you can give us a few copper coins." Just think about it?"

"Your surname is Sun! Don't be ashamed! Anyway, you have also made a small flag, and you don't know how to do it here? Besides, seeing off the late emperor, you still dare to take money? If it wasn't because your son-in-law is a celebrity in the Imperial City Guards People, I have already dealt with you for the crime of disrespect!"

Seeing that Wang Dianshi couldn't be fooled, he put away his original smiling face and shouted loudly.

"You have the final say on the crime of disrespect? Hahaha! I am not afraid of the old man! If you don't settle the balance today, I will never die with you! Cough..." The old man shouted angrily, probably because I was so excited that I couldn't stop coughing.

The mourning team behind them also stood up with a "swish", and started a confrontation with several people from Bingmasi.

"You... do you want to rebel!" Wang Dianshi was obviously frightened by the aura of the old man, but he was probably afraid that the matter would really become a big mess, so he didn't take more aggressive measures to fight against it. .

Xu Xin had seen the doorway clearly, so he shook the reins and rode his horse past.

"What are you guys doing making noise here! Don't you know there's a curfew coming!"

Xu Xin looked down at the people in the capital's Bingma Division and yelled loudly.

Chapter 77

"Shut you down..."

Wang Dianshi raised his head, and just about to speak, he saw the person in front of him clearly, and instantly shivered, instinctively, cold sweat oozes out from his whole body.He couldn't have heard what he said just now!

As soon as his legs softened, he quickly knelt down and bowed.

"Wang You, the Secretary of the Military and Horse Department of the Capital City, welcome to the Commander of the Imperial City Guard, Master Xu!"

Seeing this, the rest of the people also fell to their knees.

When the old man saw Xu Xin, he showed his few teeth and said with a happy smile: "Xu...Master Xu, my family Li Si often mentions you to us! My lord! You have to do good for the little old men!" Make the decision! The imperial court promised to give us 100 taels, but Wang Dianshi only gave us [-] taels, and he must have deducted the rest!"

Xu Xin got off his horse and helped the old man up with a smile: "Uncle Sun, don't worry. I will deal with it at this time. If I don't find out what is right and wrong, I will take all the soldiers and horses back!"

When Wang Dianshi on the ground heard it, he almost passed out.

The lord in front of me, in recent days, has just swaggered and led people to Xichang to take people, and beat Cao Changgong without a hitch!

"My lord! Forgive me! The villain is really just following the orders from above! They really only gave the villain five taels of silver!" Wang Dianshi kowtowed uncontrollably, almost breaking his head.
