Chapter 1580 The decree has arrived
"Oh Lord Fang, we are just slaves, why do you still have to come out to greet us?"
Outside the Duhu Mansion, Eunuch Xia saw Fang Yiai riding over on horseback and quickly got off his carriage. Although he was the person next to Li Xiang, Fang Yiai was different from the past. He was a member of the imperial court. Foreign ministers who are abroad, if you accept this gift in the car and someone takes a copy of it, you will not be able to walk around with it.
In Chang'an City, when we met in casual clothes and saluted each other, no one said anything like this. After all, Chang'an City is all about having fun, and there is not so much time to worry about it, unless you are a high-ranking person. People insist that people with lower rankings salute, otherwise whoever is full will end up making such a mess.
But now the situation is different. Eunuch Xia carries the imperial mandate, and Fang Yiai is still a local official. The etiquette between the two is different. According to the rules of the court, Fang Yiai has to go first. Asked if the prince was okay, and then Eunuch Xia answered honestly. After the serious matters between the two of them were over, it was time to talk privately.
The relationship between the two in Chang'an City was also good. At that time, Fang Yiai was the Prime Minister's son, and Eunuch Xia was just the eunuch of the East Palace. Li Xiang did not have the power he has now. In order to win over the Prime Minister, he had to let his subordinates When the little eunuch came forward, Mr. Fang did not act domineering at that time, allowing Eunuch Xia to complete the task very well, so Eunuch Xia still kept this in mind. Now, although the positions of the two have changed, but Eunuch Xia would never take advantage of Fang Yiai.
After explaining the serious matters, the two of them entered the lobby of the Duhu Mansion together, and Fang Yiai asked everyone else to go out. If you people stay here, it will really delay our conversation.
"Eunuch Xia, has His Highness remembered me? If there is a place in the northwest that needs my old house, I will arrange it immediately and follow you back. Even if I go to the northwest to be a marching clerk, I will be better than here. That’s a lot, look at how fat I am now, I won’t be able to get on the horse soon.”
After there were no other people, Fang Yiai's face lost the majesty it had just now. When facing outsiders, especially locals, he had to maintain the majesty of the Tang Empire, and he could not reveal too much when speaking. If you let others figure out the many expressions, it would be a dereliction of duty on your part, as a metropolis-sama.
But now there is no such thing as so much emphasis. Although Eunuch Xia is a slave, he is the slave of His Highness Taisun. He is very likely to be in Wang De's position in the future. Go to Chang'an City and ask, who dares to look down on him? Where is Wang De? Even if his father is the prime minister, he must be polite when talking to Wang De, otherwise he may not be able to accomplish many things for you, but he may ruin the things you want to do.
After hearing what Fang Yiai said, Eunuch Xia didn't know what to say. Before leaving, Li Xiang also confessed that Fang Yiai had been staying here for many years and it was time to change his place. But for a while, I can't find a replacement, so I have to let him stay here, maybe a year or two, maybe even longer.
The Tang Dynasty has not yet entered a period of absolute stability. There are still some rebellions in various places. Only Fang Yiai's territory is very stable. If it had been another person, maybe there would have been all kinds of rebellions here. It's over, so Li Xiang will never take the risk of replacing someone. As for Fang Yiai, he can only be a favor to him.
"Sir, what you are talking about are all national affairs. How can a eunuch in our family interfere with those matters? This time he came from the northwest and brought His Highness's greetings to you, as well as your newly born little son. , His Highness also gave you a sixth-grade title, your family is very generous."
Hearing what Eunuch Xia said, the smile on Fang Yiai's face disappeared. He had just had a little son, and he was indeed a little happy, but he now has six sons. Historically, this guy was a cuckold, but now In this day and age, there is no such thing as a princess. Wouldn't it be more comfortable to just find some folk girls here?
Now His Highness has given your son a title. He is neither his direct descendant nor his eldest son, but he actually gave him a title in return.
Doesn't this explain the problem? I must have recognized your work over the years, and I know that you have worked very hard here, but it is impossible to transfer. Eunuch Xia came here because of other things, and he was definitely not trying to transfer you. work.
"That's really a great favor from the Emperor. It's just a matter like this. His Highness can just find someone to come. How can he be able to work for you? Is there something else going on here?"
Fang Yiai also has a lot of political skills. Even though his father is the current Prime Minister of the Tang Dynasty, we can know how good his political skills are.
"Your Excellency, please read this first. After your Excellency has finished reading it, please answer what you don't understand. This is also what His Highness meant. This statement was written by Mr. Xiao Shougui Xiao."
Eunuch Xia took out a thick stack of paper from the side. It was all written by Xiao Shougui, and it was also related to the next series of actions.
Seeing how much Eunuch Xia attached great importance to it, Fang Yiai hurriedly took these things, not caring about arranging meals. His Highness personally told him this. He also knew Xiao Shougui's status. He was the next generation head of the Xiao family in Lanling. The plan planned by the two of them should be very important to Datang. Although we cannot go to the northwest, we can still do our part for the northwest.
It took Fang Yiai nearly an hour to finish reading the plan. He also admired Xiao Shougui a little bit. He didn't expect him to think of this. You know, the Tang Dynasty occupied a lot of places, but if you want to talk about the most obedient subordinates, they must be Fuso and Goguryeo.
Although the people in these two places were shouting loudly before, if you beat them into submission, then what you say is what it means. These people will do things for you honestly, and they can do better than you ask.
Others are not qualified to say this, but Fang Yiai has been here for too long, so of course he is qualified to say this. Just look at the Goguryeo people under his command. They never dared to disobey him, and no one has resisted for a long time. Some people even pulled out his relatives in the resistance army. (End of this chapter)
