Chapter Ten

In the Fairy Palace of Changle Palace, an old man in brocade was groping for the cage in his hand. The cage in the cage made a crisp chirping. The old man's eyes were empty and confused, obviously a symptom of blindness for a long time. A beautiful woman walked in with a cute doll. The doll was born white and a little fat baby face looked festive, like a ginseng doll on the New Year painting.

"Mom, guess who your daughter brought."

"A smell of milk must be a little pig."

"Grandma, I am Liu Yaoer and not Xiao Zhu."

A childish voice sounded like a child, which made Empress Dowager Dou feel great comfort. She stretched out her hand that looked like a dead tree bark and kept rubbing Liu Yu's tender face.

"Grandma, today I met a great hero from my father's place. He killed a large leader of the Huns and brought back both the head and the gold medal."

"Oh, there's something like this."

"Mom, that's the case. The eldest brother said he wanted to be a village marquis. The censor Chao Cuo made a statement to be a marquis of Ting. In the end, the Minister of Zongzheng Temple granted him a marquis of Guannei. His surname was named Yunhou. He had a fief of 200 households, and the reward was a little bit more contemptuous. The eldest brother ordered the inner court to reward fifty pieces of silk and satin and a hundred taels of gold. He also asked the Jiaofangsi to choose slaves according to the etiquette. Chao Cuo seemed to dislike this marquis of Yun, so he exiled him to Ganquan Palace to raise horses."

"Well, your elder brother did the right thing. If you have any merits, you have to reward him. Chao Cuo is too mean. But now the country advocates governance by inaction. You cannot reward him. Otherwise, you will go to the Xiongnu to cause trouble and the border will not be peaceful. Zong Zhengqing's opinion is very good. After all, his family is caring."

Empress Dowager Dou hugged her grandson and continued to listen to her crowshoppers.

In Weiyang Palace.

"Teacher, you seem to have a lot of resentment towards Yunhou."

"Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that a 14 or 15-year-old baby can come and go freely from the territory of the Huns, which is too sensational. If this is the case, I am afraid that your Majesty will receive even the heads of the Huns' Great Shanyu tomorrow."

"You mean this is the Huns' hard trick, but it may not be too much to use a Zuo Dadu as a bargaining chip."

"In the past, Prince Dan of Yan sent Jing Ke to assassinate the King of Qin, and didn't he borrow Fan Yuqi's head? Your Majesty had to be careful. Now he exiled him to Ganquan Palace and stayed away from Chang'an, and then secretly monitored by the Tingwei. I guess there would be no trouble. I must first settle the country before fighting against foreign countries. This is the national policy established by the late emperor and cannot be changed."

"Well, the teacher is indeed a mature country. Is there any news about the vassal kings recently?"

"According to the return of the Tingwei Office..."

Yun Xiao was depressed. Before the magnificent Weiyang Palace could be driven away from Chang'an after a few glances. What is a little gratifying is that the inner court sent a lot of silk and a hundred taels of gold. This is not just brass, but real gold.

Yun Xiao had a persistent love for gold and brought silk to visit Liu Ao. Yun Hou's reputation was won by others, otherwise he might have gone to somewhere to be the director of the police station.

Liu Ao was still very enthusiastic and appointed Liu Cheng's brother Liu Xin to greet him. The Liu family may have this gene, and Liu Xin is also a fat man, and he is so fat that he needs help from walking.

"Boy, I have done what I promised you. Although my fief is a little less, it is better than Tinghou. Cheng'er wrote to you that you are a talented person. Seeing that you have a good bones, I am also a good seedling. From now on, you will be close to Xin'er. In the future, the world will still be your young people. We old people will support you for one day in power. When we are gone, the world will depend on you."

Try it, win over it, just say it directly, if you are hanging with me in the future, you will benefit from it.

He smiled and sent the gift, and then listened to the old guy's admonition. Yun Xiao suddenly felt that leaving Chang'an was probably a good thing. Chao Cuo's face full of silky flesh seemed to be less ferocious.

People are keen on money, not on state affairs————————Montesquieu.

Yun Xiao was sure that the old guy in front of him was in line with Montesquieu's theory. The old guy was talking about the distribution of the interests of Gui Yan in his words, as if he had a deep resentment towards Liu Cheng's promise to give Yun Xiao two parts. It was obvious that he wanted to destroy the bridge across the river. The spirit of contract was not missing today. When he thought of Liu Bei's credit problem, Yun Xiao felt relieved, and the old Liu family was like this.

Even though he could not beat the old coffin, Yun Xiao generously transferred all his shares to Liu Ao. Zong Zhengqing's appearance cannot be too ugly after all, so before leaving, the old guy forced Yun Xiao to give two carts of copper coins, saying that it was a gift to return.

The meeting, which seemed to be happy, ended. Yun Xiao returned to the inn with two carriages of copper coins. Three thousand guan coins, and even the autistic patient Cang Lan's eyes turned red. Everyone's faces were full of smiles, with Yun Xiao exception. It was really unhappy to be cheated.

When it comes to liking money, there is not much difference between adults and children. Wei Qing moved a basket of copper coins and wanted to walk into the inn.

"Okay, get some luggage. Let's set off now. These two carriages are also ours. Canglan, go buy another carriage, and we will set out to Ganquan Palace tomorrow morning."

After dinner, Canglan came over and looked like he was having a stool, standing behind Yun Xiao, rubbing his hands constantly.

"Speak if you have something to do. Since you are willing to follow me, just say whatever you have. The guesswork will not only be useless but also easily misunderstood."

"My father came home and sent my three uncles over, saying that he would be your guard. He is waiting outside now."

In these days, it is actually similar to being a bodyguard and a thug in modern times. If the master bullies someone, you are responsible for beating someone. When the master is bullied by someone, you are also responsible for beating someone. When the master is bullied by someone, you are also responsible for beating someone, you are called a bodyguard. Two professions are two in one, and that is called a guard.

Seeing Yun Xiao's face gloomy and unstable, Canglan thought Yun Xiao was willing to refuse. He hurriedly said, "The three uncles are all good players in the Northern Army, but because my father offended people in the court, he couldn't make it in the Northern Army. They were unwilling to be bandits, and their lives are very hard now, so I ask Mr. Yun to take them in."

As he said that, he knelt down.

"I said that the function of knee bend is for walking, not for kneeling. Get up and let your three uncles come in."

After Canglan went out for a while, three strong men in coarse linen came in.

"Cang Bear, Cang Tiger, and Gang Eagle have seen Yunhou."

Yun Xiao looked at the three people. The names and images had some connections. Yun Xiao didn't believe it before, but now he believes it.

The one who was touched by this bear was a big bear. The wide face of this bear was indeed like a tiger.

This goshawk has deep eyes and high noses. Well, it's absolutely chaotic for this guy's bloodline. His mother's eyes are all blue, who said he is a Han Chinese, Yun Xiao can strangle him to death?

Looking at Yun Xiao's eyes constantly looking at the Eagle, Cang Lan hurriedly said in a low voice: "My fourth uncle is his biological mother, a Seminary. He was taken by the Northern Army from the Xiongnu. Later, he was taken by his grandfather and gave birth to my fourth uncle. Although my fourth uncle has such a look, my fourth uncle's archery skills are famous in the Northern Army. Once, he shot the Xiongnu cavalry three hundred steps away, and Yunhou can find the soldiers of the Northern Army to verify it."

Three hundred steps, one step or one meter, even if there is an error, it will be about 200 meters. In the years without rifles, this is a sniper. Talents are the most important in the 21st century. More than two thousand years ago, talents were equally important. Stay behind, and the three brothers were left behind no matter what they said.

"Since you are willing to stay, then follow me to Ganquan Palace tomorrow."

The three brothers kowtowed but did not leave. They looked at each other and then looked at Canglan. Canglan's face turned red suddenly, and he was circling in a sad and swaying circle.

"I've said it all, I have something to say. What does it mean to be around me?"

Canglan was still weak for a long time but still didn't say it. Cang Hu saw that his nephew was in a dilemma and said, "Mr. Yun, the young people have not made a living in Chang'an City for a long time. They owe some famine, and want to..."

"Oh, that's it. Canglan, go and ask Aunt Wei to pay some money to help your uncles settle their home."

"Mr. Yun, it is not convenient for me to come and go by my family next to you in Chang'an. I want to move to Ganquan Palace with my family."

I understand, it turns out that I can't make it in Chang'an anymore. I want to move with me, but it seems that I have to arrange my family members to recruit talents.

It doesn’t matter if you have a few more people. You still have a fief of 200 households, so you won’t be able to lose yourself.

The Han Dynasty ruled the fiefs of these two hundred households were granted to Yun Xiao. That was Yun Xiao's fief, where Yun Xiao could collect taxes, cases, punishments and other rights, in other words, it was the country in the country. In addition to respecting the emperor's order, everything else was decided by yourself.

If it is a vassal king, you can even dig a copper mountain to mint coins by yourself, so the vassal kings are now rich in the world. It is said that some vassal kings have chamber pots made of gold.

"Okay, let's take your family on the road tomorrow."

The three brothers kowtowed on the ground with gratitude.

"It's not easy for these years. I'll help you support your family. When it's in danger, I'll rely on you to help you. It's still hard to say who owes whom. Okay, go to Aunt Wei to pay money. Don't let someone say that Yun Hou's escort ran away with debts."

"Mr. Yun, the lives of my three brothers will be yours in the future."

The hero didn't say much nonsense, and the three brothers kowtowed and turned around and left. Canglan hesitated and looked at Yun Xiao, and when he saw Yun Xiao signaling, he chased him out.

In fact, when the three brothers appeared, Yun Xiao knew that they were pure and kind-hearted. A woman who was so beautiful could lead a team to rob her. If these three brothers went into business, they would probably rebel.

The Cang family seemed to have been entangled with Yun Xiao, and had just sent away the three Cang brothers. Cang Jingkong's sharp voice rang outside the door again.

"Mr. Yun, this is the male and female servants sent by the Jiaofangsi. According to the system, ten strong male servants are worth twenty. Come out and see, these are all selected by the old slave himself."

Yun Xiao followed Cang Jingkong to the yard and almost fainted. The so-called strong male servants were all stinging uncles in their forties and fifties. The so-called maids were all stout and strong.
