Chapter 1115 The elders in the palace (make up for yesterday)
After leaving Weiyang Palace, Li Xin did not leave the imperial city. At this moment, the general situation in the capital has been controlled. As long as the sixth prince enters the capital tomorrow, things can proceed in an orderly manner according to Li Xin's will.
The next step is nothing more than the distribution of benefits and the personnel arrangement of each yamen. Li Xin is too busy with these matters, and he needs to wait for Zhao Jia to come to Beijing.
Zhao Jia's dream in this life is to be able to go to the stage to worship the prime minister. He urged Li Xin to raise the army, which is largely because of this reason. Now that the court has almost fallen into the hands of the Southwest Army, it is natural to let Zhao Jia go to Beijing to take charge of the Shangshutai.
But these are all for later. Before that, Li Xin has to meet someone else.
After he left Weiyang Palace, he hesitated for a while, then chose some cakes from the palace's dining room, got some fruits, carried them in his hands, and then walked to the harem.
The harem is a forbidden place for men, and it is impossible for outsiders to enter except for the permission of the emperor. Even now that the Southwest Army has taken over the imperial city, Li Xin also ordered Hanzhou army officers and soldiers to guard the harem and not allow anyone to enter or leave.
However, during the Taikang Dynasty, Li Xin entered the harem many times, for no other reason, because he had an elder in the harem.
Under the leadership of the little **** in the palace, Li Xin quickly arrived at the gate of a small palace.
Here...the Empress Dowager...that is, the residence of Li Xin's mother-in-law.
Originally, the Empress Dowager lived in the Kunde Palace. Later, when Emperor Yuanzhao ascended the throne, Empress Xie was upgraded to become the Empress Dowager. The Empress Dowager voluntarily gave up the Kunde Palace and moved to this Ningde Palace. , eat fast food and recite Buddha.
Although the seniority is already very high, the old man is actually only less than sixty years old now.
Li Xin scratched his head in embarrassment, standing at the door a little afraid to go in.
Back then, this mother-in-law was very kind to him, and she was a kind of unscrupulous kind, which made Li Xin always be very grateful and treat her as a grown-up. passed the old man's house.
Now that he has come back with great difficulty, when he sees the old lady, he can't tell her directly to the old man that his son-in-law rebelled successfully and entered the imperial city...
But embarrassment turns into embarrassment, people still want to see it, Li Xin has been quite sorry for Princess Qinghe over the years, and he can't even deny this relative.
He took a few steps forward, walked to the gate of Ningde Palace, took a deep breath, and said to the palace maid at the gate, "Please tell me, I just said Li Xin asked to see my mother-in-law."
The palace has changed a lot at this moment, and everyone is panicking, especially after hearing Li Xin's name, the palace maid immediately trembled with fright, and hurriedly knelt down to kowtow to Li Xin.
General Li frowned and said, "I want you to report, no need to kowtow."
The palace maid quickly got up, her voice trembling: "The slave girl is going, this is going..."
Soon, Li Xin was invited into Ningde Palace by several palace maids. He was carrying some cakes and preserved fruits in his left hand and some fruits in his right, looking like a junior who came to give gifts.
The Ningde Palace is not very big. It didn't take long for Li Xin to be led to the door of a meditation room. After reaching out and knocking on the door, the old lady's tired voice came from inside.
"You... come in."
Li Xin let out a "hey" and slowly pushed the door and walked in.
The Empress Dowager began to believe in Buddhism since the Taikang Dynasty. Over the years, she ate fast food and chanted Buddha almost every day. This meditation room is more like a Buddhist hall, where many Buddhas are enshrined.
The old man is sitting on the futon, wearing a blue robe, and turning the beads in his hands.
Li Xin put the gift in his hand aside, then walked carefully to the old man's side, with a smile on his face: "Mother-in-law, is your old man healthy?"
The old lady put down the beads in her hand, looked back at Li Xin, and sighed faintly.
"In the past few years, no matter how noisy you are, the Ai family has never asked, thinking that it is all about the younger generation. Children and grandchildren will have their own children and grandchildren, but it's only been so many years, how can it be like this?"
Li Xin also found a futon and sat down, sighing at the old man.
"Mother, I have a family, I have Lingxiu, and I have a son and two daughters. It doesn't matter how I am alone, but as the head of the family, I can't let my wife and children have life worries, right? ?"
The beads in the old lady's hand stopped turning. She stared at Li Xin for a long time, her voice a little hoarse.
"Ai's family is the daughter-in-law of Ji's family, and her heart is naturally towards Ji's family. No matter what you say, it is always wrong to rebel."
She coughed and continued: "If Aijia were a decade or two younger, I would have to stand up and fight with you no matter what, but now that I am old, I can't stand still."
Li Xin got up, brought the futon closer to the old lady, then knelt down and sat down again, bowing slightly: "How about you beat your son-in-law twice to let out your anger?"
The old lady was also unequivocal, picked up Qian Zhi who was beating the wooden fish in her hand, and beat Li Xin three times on the head.
But she is old and has no strength in her hands, so it is not particularly painful.
After , the bead in the old man's hand turned again, and the voice calmed down: "Xiao Jiu, is she okay?"
Li Xin sat next to her and whispered: "It's good, she has also started to learn from her mother to eat fast and recite Buddha over the years, saying that she wants to pray for a few children."
"That's a good thing."
The old man glanced at Li Xin and said, "What about little Ahan and Ping'er? It's time to grow up now, count the age, Ahan is now the age to marry."
"I grew up."
A smile appeared on Li Xin's face: "In a few days, the mother and son should be on their way to Beijing, and the mother will be able to see them in more than two months."
Now that the Southwest Army has controlled the capital, there is no need for Li Xin's family to continue hiding in the southwest. The news of Li Xin's Anbu is very fast, and four or five days are enough to spread the news to Jincheng. At that time, Li Xin Most of the family will go to Beijing with Zhao Jia.
Of course, Zhao Jia must have rushed to the capital, and the nine princesses and the children at home can't stand the bumps. It is estimated that it will take at least a few months to reach the capital.
The old man glanced at Li Xin and asked, "What's the name of Xiao Jiu's little daughter?"
The youngest daughter of Li Xin's family was born in the southwest. She had never been to the capital, so she had never seen her before, nor did she know her name.
"It's called Jinger."
Li Xin said with a smile: "This girl has not been to the capital yet. When she comes, I will bring her to see her mother."
The old lady has only two children in her life, and her son Taikang has died of illness for more than five years, and there is only a girl like the Ninth Princess left to miss.
"it is good."
The Empress Dowager continued to turn the beads and closed her eyes.
"The Ai family is in the harem, but if you ask about political affairs, I don't know how you and the Ji family got to this point, but no matter what, you, Li Changan, won this battle after all."
"Aijia has also read the history books and knows that as long as you win this kind of thing, you can do whatever you want."
"It's rare that you can still think of visiting a useless old man like me and recognize my mother-in-law when you come to this day."
The old lady closed her eyes and said calmly: "Now that the court situation has reached this point, Aijia knows that there is nothing to persuade you, but since you called me mother, I still have something to warn you."
Li Xin got up, lowered his hand and said, "Mother taught me."
The old man let out a long sigh.
"Let's make and kill less."
I didn't really want to write about this character, because many people don't want to watch this kind of plot, and they all want to see the protagonist kill decisively, but I thought about it, the protagonist is also a person and has his own interpersonal relationships, so he can't be a person. The arrogant machine...
