Xie Yuncang didn't understand this and couldn't help but look confused.
Xie Changqing sighed, and then told the story about An's going to the Summer Palace to make a big fuss today. Then he smiled bitterly and said: "I came here just because I wanted to say something to you. I came here to say something to you."
I'm sorry, you also know your sister-in-law's temperament, alas! I can't help her."
Xie Yuncang took the letter back, folded it again and put it into the envelope, then handed it to the attendant beside him, "Sign my private seal and take it to the official post to send it out."
The world today is too chaotic. There were natural disasters in many places last year. Coupled with wars, civil unrest broke out in many places, making the roads very uneven.
The efficiency of mail delivery in Minyi is extremely low. Even those escort agencies that do darts dare not rely on their craftsmanship to make fast darts when the tide rises.
But after all, the imperial court is still functioning and the government is still there.
The civil unrest is a civil unrest, and it has not yet reached the point of rebellion. Therefore, Guanyi can still provide some guarantees relatively speaking.
Xie Changqing watched him order from the side, and after a long time he smiled and said: "I thought that after so many things, you would never believe her again. Although such a letter is not a bad thing, who knows what will happen next.
"
Xie Yuncang gestured towards the room and invited his brother to come in.
After sitting down, he sighed and said: "Of course I don't trust her very much. If she continues to exchange letters with Brother Lang in the future, I will inevitably have to be a villain a few times and keep an eye on her carefully."
"Then you..."
"But she is Brother Lang's mother after all. Even though her behavior makes people worry, I can't deprive her of contact with her son. I can't do such a thing that goes against human ethics."
Xie Changqing looked at his younger brother's face, shook his head after a long while and said, "What a temper you have! It's exactly what my father said."
"What?"
This is the second time Xie Yuncang heard his father's evaluation of himself from other people. The last time was from Fang Congwen, when he heard his father's evaluation of their three brothers.
Fang Congwen's comments made him determined to do something, and he has been planning for it these days.
It's just that even though I said this, I felt a little unsure, and I still wasn't sure whether my move was right or wrong.
So when he heard his brother's words, he couldn't help but have expectations in his heart.
Xie Changqing looked at him and suddenly smiled, "I haven't seen Maocai like this in many years. It's just like the way you used to be in school, waiting for your teacher's praise after you finished your article."
Hearing this, Xie Yuncang couldn't help but blush, "In terms of talent and learning, my stupid brother is not as good as my elder brother. When I was young, when I was with my elder brother, my husband could only see his elder brother but not me, so I would inevitably have a lot of doubts in my heart."
Looking forward to coming.”
When they mentioned what happened when they were young, both brothers felt a lot of emotion, but in the end they raised their heads at the same time and smiled at each other.
"I'm different from you. Maybe I do have some talent when it comes to making articles, but being an official is too unruly and I'm afraid of the constraints of those rules and regulations.
Although the original choice was somewhat forced, it was more because my father saw my temperament from the beginning and made the choice together with me.
But you are different. Among the three of us brothers, my father thought you were the one most likely to revitalize Menlin from the beginning. But my father also told me that you look mature and steady, but after all, there is a place in your heart that is too soft, and
There are some persistences that only you can understand.
You don’t even know that when my father was lingering on the sickbed, he told me that if one day you were able to join the cabinet, you would not ask me to be a hand-off shopkeeper."
Xie Yuncang was slightly shocked and looked up at Xie Changqing in surprise, "So... the year I was elected to the cabinet, brother, you opened the Shensi Pavilion?"
Xie Changqing smiled and nodded, "It's just that I never understood what my father meant. But for me, if I really want to get involved in political affairs, opening a school is the fastest way."
Xie Yuncang felt a little congested, and after a while he whispered softly: "I didn't expect that at such an old age, my eldest brother and father would still worry about me."
"This is not a worry," Xie Changqing waved his hand, "This is a responsibility as a family member. Because you are supporting me in the court, I can be my free and easy man in the capital, and my third brother can also live in peace and stability.
Become his noble official of the Ministry of Rites.
The family members in the family can go out calmly because you are supporting them. Many things cannot be seen without talking about them, but it does not mean that they do not exist. Don’t you, the elder brother, understand this? "
Although compared to Xie Yuncang, both Xie Changqing and Xie Feiwu behaved very emotionally, but this was the first time they said such emotional things.
Xie Yuncang felt a little uncomfortable, but more moved.
After a long while, he nodded and said, "Brother never forgets to teach me."
As he spoke, he was silent for a while, and then suddenly said: "However, I still hope that my eldest brother can advise me on my sister-in-law's words and deeds. Although Mrs. Qi is under my control now, after all, she is the mother of the children and my wife. I
…”
"Yes, yes!" Xie Changqing nodded quickly, "That's what Mrs. An is like. She doesn't have any rules in doing things. She just does whatever comes to mind. I will tell her when I get back. This kind of thing is indeed too much."
Looking at his look, Xie Yuncang knew that it might not have any effect.
Thinking again about Qi's attitude and behavior towards An in the past, Xie Yuncang felt that he couldn't make too many demands.
Xie Changqing suddenly became serious at this moment, "I'm coming here today. There's one more thing I want to talk to you about."
With such an expression on his brother's face, it meant that he was really serious again. Xie Yuncang also calmed down his emotions, looked at his brother seriously and nodded, "But it doesn't matter."
"I have nothing to do these days, so I made an appointment with a few friends to go around and enjoy the scenery. I heard some things, and I don't know what others are talking about. I am really a little uneasy."
Although Xie Changqing has always been wandering around the house with nothing to do, he is open-minded by nature. If he encounters anything, he can figure it out without others saying anything. What's more, there are not many things in this world that can really call him
worry.
So when he heard his brother say that he was uneasy, Xie Yuncang was really shocked, "I wonder what happened, brother."
"I heard this by chance. I have a few friends, and someone in my family is a servant of the prince. I heard that the prince seems to be... moving around a bit strangely recently."
Xie Yuncang raised his eyebrows. Although he hadn't heard his brother say the specific reason, but when he heard the word "weird whereabouts", he knew that this matter was not groundless.
As the chief minister of my cabinet, it stands to reason that all the affairs of the court, big and small, must pass through his hands every day, but the final decision-making power should rest in the hands of the emperor.
Now that the prince oversees the country, the prince should make the final decision.
Han Jian, the Supervisor of Ceremonies, has always had a close relationship with the East Palace. When the prince ascends the throne, the Supervisor of Ceremonies must be replaced. If he does not take over the power at this time, when will he wait?
But no, Xie Yuncang rarely saw the prince since the Lantern Festival.
Some matters were still left to Han Jian to discuss with the cabinet.
Even though the most favored eunuch of Emperor Yufeng was not very enthusiastic about these court affairs, he rarely opposed the cabinet.
But both emotionally and rationally, the current situation seems a bit strange.
Seeing Xie Yuncang's expression, Xie Changqing sighed softly, "The news is just news. You still need to find a way to verify whether it is specific. I just heard that the prince often goes to Lingxiao Temple outside the palace recently."
