Chapter 1015 It’s not polite to come back but not reciprocate
Since the surrender of Xiliao, Xiliang has stabilized. In addition, the bandits in the territory have been gradually eliminated, and the security of Xiliang has taken a big step forward.
With personal safety guaranteed, the number of caravans willing to come to Xiliang for business has increased, especially on the official road. After the post station was repaired, more and more people came and went.
The more merchants there are, the cheaper the exchange of materials becomes, which further significantly improves the quality of life of the people.
After entering December, there is an endless stream of camel teams at the gate of Liangdu City.
Camels entered Liangdu carrying large quantities of items. After the transaction, they left carrying another batch of newly purchased supplies.
Under Xiao Yeyang's deliberate promotion, Xiliang also has its own specialties. Woolen fabrics, cattle, sheep, camels, and Ganzhou cotton are all the favorite products of merchants from other places.
Merchants also brought goods from other places to Xiliang, enriching the people's clothing, food, housing and transportation.
As soon as Laba Festival is over, the New Year atmosphere in Liangdu begins to get stronger, with lights and colors everywhere, and the streets are bustling with people.
People outside are happily preparing for their new year, but the sky above An Mansion is filled with gloom and gloom.
After An Zhixing was discovered secretly excavating the Wei family's gold burial ground, he was directly suspended from his post by Xiao Yeyang. For this reason, Mrs. An visited the gate of Prince Weiyuan's Mansion several times to ask for an audience with Xiao Yeyang, but unfortunately, she was refused.
p>
On December 15th, Mrs. An came directly to Dusi Yamen, planning to risk her face and kneel down in public, and also asked Xiao Yeyang to be lenient.
Unexpectedly, before she could do anything, Xiao Yeyang took the initiative to come out to see her.
Xiao Yeyang did not avoid others, and stood directly on the steps of the Yamen and said: "Mrs. An, you don't need to force me. What Mr. An has done is too big. I have already reported the matter to the emperor.
Now I am waiting for the emperor’s order.”
After hearing this, Mrs. An suddenly felt her eyes darkening. After calming down for a while, she pointed at Xiao Yeyang with a trembling hand: "Xiao Yeyang, you are trying to break up with our An family!"
Seeing Mrs. An's furious look, Xiao Yeyang's face remained calm: "Mrs. An, considering that you are old, I will not pursue your crime of trespassing."
"However, I would like to remind you that even if you are the mother of a noble concubine, you must abide by the laws of Daxia. If Mr. An commits a crime, he will be punished."
Madam An angrily smiled back: "Okay, okay, Xiao Yeyang, you are cruel enough!" She looked at Xiao Yeyang sinisterly for a while, then let the maid help her leave.
Xiao Yeyang watched the An family's carriage go away with an expressionless face, then calmly turned around and returned to the Yamen.
As soon as he left, the concerned officials around him started talking in low voices.
Master Du, Master Chang, and Master Yuan looked at each other and couldn't help but warn themselves to keep a low profile in the future.
Xiao Yeyang dared to attack the An family mercilessly today. If they made a mistake and were caught, they believed that the result waiting for them would not be much better.
"Xiao Yeyang hit Concubine An and the eldest prince hard in the face this time."
"You tell me, how dare Xiao Yeyang not care about Concubine An and the eldest prince at all?"
"He did this, firstly, to vent his anger on Princess Xiao, and secondly, to prove to the emperor that he is a firm royalist. At the same time, he also showed everyone that he would not be attached to any prince."
"Everything King Weiyuan has today is achieved by his own hard work. He is more confident and bloody than other nobles. It is useless for such a person to use coercion or inducement."
Anjia actually helped them explore the way.
......
On December 20, the An family received an urgent letter from the eldest prince.
An Zhixing learned that the emperor had dismissed him from his post, and that he had accidentally implicated Concubine An. The eldest prince was scolded by the emperor and fell down on his chair in defeat.
Even more ugly than his face was Mrs. An San. Her husband finally got the chance to be sent abroad, and now he had to go back to Beijing less than a year ago.
Still in such an ugly way.
Before she went back, she could imagine how the people in An Mansion would ridicule and laugh at their house.
What worries her even more is what the eldest prince is pursuing, which is like a sharp sword hanging over her head.
Mrs. An hated Xiao Yeyang and his wife very much: "Xiao Yeyang treated the An family in such a bad way, and didn't take the imperial concubine and the eldest prince in his eyes. Let's wait for the future. We will have to settle the score one day."<
/p>
Mrs. An San was very fed up when she saw that even at this time, her mother-in-law was still saying disobedient words. If her mother-in-law had not come, she was confident that she could persuade the master to stay in Xiliang safely.
Unfortunately, all of this was ruined by my mother-in-law.
Can the An family really be better off with such a stubborn old prince?
Also, can the eldest prince really become the prince?
Outside the door, An Xin's face turned pale as she listened to the conversation in the room. She did not expect that King Weiyuan would be so merciless to the An family.
Going back to Beijing again...
An Xin looked at the sky blankly. After returning, where will her way out be?
......
Weiyuan Palace.
Xiao Yeyang knew about the An family being recalled to Beijing one step ahead of the An family. Turning around, Xiao Yeyang told Daohua.
Daohua was painting with Daozi in the house. After hearing the news, she became a little silent: "We have offended both the eldest prince and Concubine An this time."
Xiao Yeyang looked unconcerned: "If you offend, you will be offended. They Anjia are not afraid of offending us. Are we afraid of offending them?"
Daohua: "It's not a question of whether we are afraid or not. We are far away from the capital. Concubine An is often with the emperor's uncle. The eldest prince is the emperor's uncle's son. From time to time, the two of them seriously hurt you and me with one or two words. They calculated mentally and unintentionally. There were many times.
We can always make Uncle Huang feel grudge against us."
Xiao Yeyang was silent. He knew better than Yi Yi that accompanying a king is like accompanying a tiger. Since ancient times, emperors have been the most suspicious.
Daozi suddenly raised his head. He understood what his father and mother said. Someone said bad things about his father and mother in front of the imperial grandfather:
"Mom, if others can speak ill of you in front of the Imperial Grandfather, you should also find someone to speak ill of them in front of the Imperial Grandfather."
"Didn't you say it's rude to come and not go back? Can't we just go back?"
Daohua and Xiao Yeyang were stunned for a moment, and then Daohua laughed and said: "Do you think anyone can speak in front of your imperial grandfather?"
Daozi tilted his head: "Grandpa, too, can't you?"
Uh...
Daohua and Xiao Yeyang looked at each other. They really didn't expect to ask Prince Ping to help, mainly because Prince Ping usually didn't care about such things.
Seeing that the two of them were silent, Daozi spoke again: "Father, mother, you haven't answered me yet. Grandpa, can you?"
Daohua: "Your grandfather can do it..."
Dao Zi smiled: "That's alright, I'll write a letter to my grandfather right away. The hungry wolf of the An family has taken a fancy to my father's piece of fat and bullied my mother. I'll ask my grandfather to beat the hungry wolf."
Daohua looked at Xiao Yeyang: "What do you think?"
Xiao Yeyang: "..."
Understanding that Xiao Yeyang was a bit embarrassed, Daohua said directly: "I think my son's idea is a good one." After saying that, she looked at Daozi with a smile: "Can you write? Do you know how to write a letter?"
The rice got stuck and he shook his head: "Mom, teach me."
So, Xiao Yeyang saw mother and son writing and drawing head to head.
Dao Zi can write very few words, but he can draw many animals. Considering this, Dao Hua guided him to draw a picture of a hungry wolf pouncing on food, and briefly noted the relationship between the characters.
"Show it."
After finishing the painting, the rice flowers were shown to Xiao Yeyang.
Xiao Yeyang took a look and found that the drawing was not complicated at all. He drew everything about An Jia falling in love with him and bullying Daohua.
The only shortcoming is that Prince Ping is painted too tall and majestic.
It gave him the feeling that their family was bullied by the An family, and in the end their father needed to step forward to save them.
"Dad, do you understand?" Daozi asked anxiously.
Xiao Yeyang glanced sideways at his son: "You only have these two brushes, and you still want to embarrass your father and me?"
"Just understand it."
Daohua took the painting back, and while teaching Daozi to write some simple greetings to Prince Ping in the blank space of the painting, she said to Xiao Yeyang: "The New Year is coming soon, so you should also write a letter to express your greetings to your father.
