Chapter 54: Ancient Severe Father (End)

It took Qi Sheng two years to refresh Ningzhou.
For the sustainable development of Ningzhou's economy, Qi Sheng promulgated early to carefully protect the local fruit trees, to prevent the people from picking up the mountain products, and encourage everyone to plant walnuts and chestnuts to increase the harvest of mountain products.
Nowadays, counties and towns in Ningzhou have opened many new shops. Not only do they have daily-use merchandise, but also pen, ink, and paper inkstones, the Ningzhou people have more money, and under the guidance of Qi Sheng, they begin to pay attention to children's reading education.
Ningzhou has officially been on the right track. Qi Sheng has nothing to do with leisure. With his younger son, he follows Xie Yun, who is familiar with the environment, and enjoys the mountains and water.
"Adult, beware of your feet, go here."
Xie Yun opened the road carefully in the front, and will be reminded carefully when passing by steeper places.
Until he came to the top of the mountain, looking at the beautiful scenery, Qi Sheng felt that it was really worth the effort to climb the mountain.
Qi Xiuli was very excited at the moment. Looking left and right, he was obviously humble and polite outside, but now he is happy like a child.
Qi Sheng shook his head no matter what he was, he was almost a relative, and now he is getting more and more naive.
Qi Xiuli laughed, seeing that the tea set had been set, and thoughtfully began making tea for Qi Sheng.
Qi Sheng again looked at Xie Yun waiting for the side, and couldn't help persuading again: "Do it, with your qualifications, whether it is an imperial examination or a military service, you can earn a future, why ..."
Xie Yun smiled and said, "Sir, is this too bad for the villain's qualifications?"
Qi Sheng was helpless, watching his idea decided, and said: "Sit down, the scenery here is just right, why not have a drink!"
Qi Xiuli also said: "Brother Xie sit down and try my tea!"
Xie Yun sat down, looked at the floating tea leaves, and couldn't help but look into the distance.
He used to be as clever as Qi Xiuli at his father's knees, but it was a pity that the father, who was a teacher, punished the most favored aristocrat in the Prophet's house, and was stigmatized by those people.
The father and son tried their best to get rid of their grievances, but the father was beaten to death, and he fled everywhere.
By chance, he learned martial arts with a dart master for a few years, Xie Yun returned to Ningzhou again, and finally avenged his father, but he couldn't return to the days when his father was still there, and he couldn't fulfill his father's expectations: my son Talented and talented, if you can get the title of the gold list with time, you will become a magnate who will serve you!
Xie Yun drank the tea in one gulp, and my father and son were not filial and could not meet your old man's expectations. However, the son's allegiance to the nobles you admire most is not disappointing.
Qi Xiuli looked at Xie Yun Niuyin and said angrily: "Xie Brother, drink tea to taste!"
Xie Yun put down the cup and said, "Then I'll have another cup, this time I'll finish it slowly."
Qi Xiuli glanced at him, but filled him personally.
In another three years, except for the position of Qi Sheng, the eldest son Qi Xiuwen has now been promoted to the fifth rank, and his son-in-law was admitted to the jury as he wished. .
Qi Sheng finished his official duties that day and took two entourages to find a secluded and elegant pavilion to play tea and play piano. As soon as he became a vassal, he would be elegant, so he heard someone anxiously report.
Qi Sheng raised his eyebrows, what is going to happen now?
With a happy face on his face, he came to Qi Sheng and said happily: "Adult, there is someone here, please go to take the order!"
Qi Sheng was surprised, but he quickly rode back home.
After receiving the imperial edict and sending away the father-in-law who smiled and said to him, Qi Sheng was a little puzzled.
Right-handed servant of Masabu Tobe, second only to the official position of Tobe Sangshu, is even called the future successor of Tobe Sangshu! He is a four-grade magistrate, not only upgraded to two ranks, but also became a Beijing official!
Qi Sheng frowned, feeling that the capital and his party might not be easy, but he was not afraid, the soldiers came to cover up the water.
But the Wangs were very excited, watching Liu's son having filial piety all day long. Although she was Qi Xiuli's mother-in-law, she was finally separated by a layer. Now she can finally reunite with her son, and she is no happier than her.
Qi Sheng's departure caused a sensation in Ningzhou. When they left alone, the people sent each other away.
The family members of the Wang family sitting in the carriage are very proud of this. Looking at Qi Sheng, who is particularly calm, Wang is still a little trance, originally thought that this life will be nestled in that small place in Yuping County. With such a scene, in just a few years, this portrait is so enlightened that the promotion is fast enough to make people wonder.
Xu was staring at this person for too long, and the black eyes opened and looked back at her. Wang smiled softly. No matter why this person changed so much, it was always her son-in-law and her son. father.
At the gate of the capital, Qi Xiuwen and his wife and children waited here early. Qi Xiuwen now has three sons. The youngest son has just turned four years old. It is at the age of enlightenment. Not yet? "
Qi Xiuwen picked up his younger son and replied: "Almost, do you remember the poem that taught you last night?"
"Remember to remember! Li ... Li ... Li ... Original ... Up ... grass, one ... year ... one ... with ... without ... Rong, ..."
The little guy proudly recited the poem he had just learned, and amused Qi Xiuwen directly after waiting for a compliment. His second son was six years old this year. Looking at his proud brother, he cooperated with the compliment: "Baoer is really smart."
It's a pity that the little guy was not happy, and said with a milky voice: "I'm a big boy, and the master said he would call him a name!"
"Yes, yes, we are older children."
The two little guys are like little adults, and they are fighting each other. The picture of Coke successfully makes Qi Xiuwen and his wife laugh.
After waiting for another incense stick, Qi Xiuwen finally saw the Qi's carriage, put down the youngest son, and sorted out his clothes. When Qi Sheng got out of the carriage, he would salute him.
"All right, so many etiquettes, you have waited a long time."
Qi Xiuwen shook his head and looked at the parents who had not changed, both gratified and happy.
They did not stay at the gate of the city for a long time, and the group returned to Qi's house in a carriage. Qi Xiuwen took his wife and children to formally salute the parents.
Qi Sheng looked at the three small Ding Dian Pai standing in front of him, and happily praised each other.
The Wang family beside him couldn't be more excited. Looking at the three smart and lovely grandchildren, he felt his life was finally completed.

Today, Qi Sheng has reached the ears, and in the fourth year of Qi Sheng ’s return to Beijing, he became the throne of the new emperor. He was also named the Hushu Shangshu. Qi Sheng and the new emperor were both suitable, and it took another three years to rectify the salt. Taxes further deter everyone in Dasheng from worrying about eating salt.
Three years ago, Qi Sheng saw that his eldest son had been an official to the local minister Zuo Lang, and he submitted his resignation to the emperor happily after the decree. Unfortunately, because the emperor Qi Sheng was still in office in these years, the treasury was not particularly rich. The private warehouse is also full, so it is very reluctant for Qi Sheng to leave like this. Until now, it is the fourth time Qi Sheng has submitted his resignation.
The emperor looked at Qi Sheng's begging bones again and played this book, which made him feel very painful, which made him go nowhere to find a household book that would make money and would not be full of money!
Thinking about the two luxurious palaces he had just imagined, the emperor looked at Qi Sheng's playbook and it was particularly unpleasant.
The emperor couldn't help but think of his comfortable days in the past few years, and then compared the life of the "Xian Huang" with the first emperor and theirs. They simply wanted to tear up the script.
Although the previous emperors of Dasheng said that they are expensive as emperors, because the Dasheng dynasty was less than a hundred years old, they did not dare to build civil engineering from the first emperor to the first emperor. After a short break-in, the new emperor found his Hushang Shangshu seemed to be an amazing figure.
The new emperor does not like heat, and always has a grumpy mood every summer. When he finally holds power, he has a hint of enjoyment, but the emperor does not dare to be too delusional, so as not to be persuaded by the imperial history.
After revealing the idea of ​​building a palace in the suburbs, in addition to the long-anticipated imperial admonishment, his household minister Shangshu really went back and prepared a feasible plan.
For a year, the emperor was looking forward and worried about the complaints of the people, but when the palace was completed, the emperor did not hear much public complaints. The emperor secretly secretly investigated and found that not only did the construction of the palace not produce public complaints. Solved a lot of people's livelihood problems, the emperor went to the palace to escape the summer, and only then realized that Dasheng's treasury is now so abundant.
Of course, Master Shangshu does not rely on him for everything. After occasionally satisfying some of his "small" ideas, he always refuses him by changing his methods. What is the need to repair the Yellow River dam, and the difficult roads in Yuzhou need to be rebuilt ... Junchen The two seemed to have a tacit understanding, and the emperor only came up with his new ideas every few years.
But since Qi Sheng resigned for the first time, the emperor did not dare to make any excessive demands, but unfortunately his lord Shangshu "Lang heart is like iron", he just wanted to leave!
After sighing again, even the standing next to him could not see it, and persuaded: "Your Majesty, why bother, now the second son of the Qi family has entered the chapel, Master Qi's move does not want to attract too much attention."
The emperor did n’t know this. If there was only one Qi Xiuwen, he might not have been so entangled. The father and son were not officials in the dynasty, and the Qi family was not too dazzling, but now the second son of the Qi family was decentralized for six years. He has also returned to Beijing to serve, and the fact that a group of three people are in the same hall seems to have some enthusiasm.
In the end, the emperor could only agree to Qi Sheng's resignation, and also dismissed the ideas of the two luxurious palaces. Over the years, Master Qi has satisfied many of his ideas, so be it.
The Qi family, Qi Xiuwen and Qi Xiuli heard some guilt after his father resigned, but Qi Sheng didn't care.
"The Qi family has enough of you to support and work hard for my father over the years. Why can't I retire and raise a good old man!"
Qi Xiuwen and Qi Xiuli kneeled at Qi Sheng's feet and bowed their heads in silence. Qi Sheng's eyes hurt and kicked Qi Xiuwen: "I was away a few days ago, I heard that you have changed your mind about Qing'er?"
Qi Xiuwen reverently replied: "The filial son didn't study the imperial examinations, but he was thinking about playing with things that could not be put on the table. The son was anxious to teach him a meal."
After finishing Qi Xiuwen's grievances, his father is now too fond of these children. If he dares to do this before, his father will definitely kill him.
Qi Sheng pulled the two up and sighed: "It was just because I wanted to help my father, and he was too harsh on you. If I hadn't seen you kneeling in the ancestral hall full of injuries, I wouldn't be conscious of my father. Up to this mistake, now Qinger is just some other hobby, why should he be so tight! "
After hearing this, Qi Xiuwen felt a little bit jealous, but still insisted: "The son has never blamed his father. In these years, he has followed his father ’s instructions and is also tolerant to their three brothers. Do what you like! "
Qi Sheng patted him on the shoulder: "Qing'er is not very obedient, and now he is even more popular among people. As for his favorite career, he also read it to his father. Some thoughts are very good for his father. The court won glory for the Qi family, why do you insist on the imperial examination together. "
Looking at Qi Xiuwen's silence, Qi Sheng continued: "Okay, when I resigned, I also sought a job for Qing'er in the Ministry of Industry. Since he likes it, let him do it. . "
Qi Xiuwen did not insist on seeing this. He had spoiled his eldest son, and he rarely taught him at ordinary times. What he is doing now is only to worry that his willfulness will disappoint his father. Xiu Wen also felt some emotions. Although his father seldom reprimanded him over the years, he was still jealous of his elder son's life.
Qi Sheng lived to be seventy-five years old. He watched the eldest son step by step into the cabinet, the younger son Guanzhi Sanpin, and the grandson from an obscure engineering ministry to the irreplaceable Zuo Shilang of the military department With the weapon he invented became the top weapon of the Dasheng Dynasty, he watched the other juniors' different lives one by one, and finally closed his eyes happily.
