After rebirth, the Queen and I are on the run.

Chapter 1186 Lingnan Prefecture

Yan Xiaosi smiled, her eyes sparkling, and asked the Duke of Yan, "Your Excellency, may I record the major events that have recently occurred in the Great Wei?"

"If I want to be a historian, I need to practice beforehand."

"Ha," the Duke of Yan laughed, instructing him, "You must first submit a memorial to His Majesty, requesting his permission to record important state affairs without authorization. Otherwise, the Censorate will find fault with you and impeach you. In serious cases, you might be thrown into prison."

Yan Xiaosi was stunned for a moment, then nodded hurriedly: "Yes, yes, I understand. Thank you for your guidance, Duke of Yan."

"There's no need to tolerate those young classmates any longer," the Duke of Yan said finally, before turning and getting into his carriage to return to his office at the Ministry of Revenue in the capital.

Yan Xiaosi nodded, exited through the main gate of the imperial city, boarded the carriage, and headed home.

After arriving home, he took off the heavy robe that had been weighing him down and told Kang Li about what had happened in the Golden Palace.

Kang Li was shocked by Emperor Wuxing's granting of the title of Duke of Jin to the Marquis of Yong. After pondering for a while, she admired Emperor Wuxing's strategy.

Emperor Wuxing wanted to transfer all the resentment of the powerful and wealthy families who had been plundered onto the Yong and Wen families.

You're dissatisfied with our donations to the imperial court to fight the enemy?

But didn't the imperial court bestow favors upon your aristocratic families?
However, not all of them were rewarded; only the Yong and Wen families were rewarded.

dissatisfied?

Not convinced?

Then go find the head of your clan alliance.

"Ahem," Kang Li coughed lightly, feeling a little uncomfortable, because both her husband's family and her own family were prominent families.

But from Emperor Wuxing's actions, she realized the court's attitude towards the aristocratic families... It wasn't about killing them all, but about breaking up the aristocratic families' small courts, and making them take the Great Wei as their own, instead of using their power to devour other places when there was nothing to do, and then finding excuses to hide when there was trouble, only to come out and try to profit again after things had calmed down.

They are truly parasites on the nation.

“Yan-ge’er, we are paid by the Great Wei court and rely on its power, so we must be loyal to the Great Wei. Don’t follow…”

Your father.

Kang Li did not utter those two words.

Kang Liwen is not human, but he is Yan Ge'er's biological father, so she cannot speak ill of her biological father or the Kang family in front of the child.

Once the child grows up, they will naturally let go of these right and wrong issues; she only needs to fulfill her duties as a mother.

Speaking of Kang Liwen, this guy wasn't dead yet. Emperor Wuxing used an imperial edict to nail him to Kang Rong's tomb, ordering him to build a hut and take care of the tomb of the righteous man Mr. Rong for the people of the world, and to offer incense three times a day without interruption.

It is quite contrary to the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches.

Emperor Wuxing said that only a kind father can have a filial son, but Kang Liwen clearly did not understand what a kind father was. So he should take care of Mr. Rong's tomb and learn how to be a kind father.

Aunt Min is dead.

Min's sons were given a drug to prevent them from having children, and were sent with Kang Liwen to manage Kang Rong's grave. They had to kowtow in front of Kang Rong's grave every day.

The head of the Kang family in the capital was also reprimanded for this incident. His mother, Madam Kang, was sent to a temple to live a vegetarian life and cultivate her spirituality. All the servants in her courtyard who were involved in the case were handed over to the Ministry of Justice for execution. The Kang family could not even have their servants beaten to death on their own.

In short, Kang Rong's death caused a great stir. Many of the favored concubines were terrified by this incident and became much more restrained, no longer daring to take advantage of their father's love to do whatever they wanted in the mansion.

The inner quarters of the powerful and wealthy families of the Great Wei Dynasty were thus much more peaceful, and there were far fewer evil deeds such as infighting and murder within the household.

However, Madam Kang still instructed Yan Xiaosi to send gifts to Kang Liwen on major holidays to prevent Yan Xiaosi from being accused of filial impiety.

Thanks to the war reports, life at the Marquis of Yicheng's residence improved.

Yan Xiaosi received many apology letters from her classmates that very day.

Yan Xiaosi replied to each one very seriously. After reading the replies, the classmate's family dragged the classmate away and beat him up again.

The Yonghou Mansion was also not peaceful.

After returning home under the stars and moon, Yong Zhi saw no one and went to the secret room where the ancestral tablets were enshrined.

Bang, bang, bang, bang!

He smashed rows of ancestral tablets, cursing in a low voice: "Useless trash, a bunch of unambitious good-for-nothings. If you could protect the family business, I wouldn't be in such a difficult situation today."

"Why are you running away? Why live on? Why offer your daughter to the enemy? You have ruined me, and now I have to bear the rotten reputation of being a descendant of a defeated nation."

"Can't you all have some backbone? Why didn't the entire royal family commit suicide together in the Golden Palace, instead of surrendering to the enemy, fleeing for your lives, or sacrificing your daughters in a martyrdom?"

Bang bang bang!
Yong used a sandalwood stick to smash the entire secret room where the ancestral tablets were enshrined.

After smashing them, he sat among a pile of memorial tablets and fell asleep from exhaustion.

The next day at dawn, he emerged from the messy secret room and saw his son kneeling outside the door, begging for forgiveness: "It is your son's incompetence that I beg you to punish me, Father."

Yong Zhi was not yet delirious. He helped his son Yong Yuan up and said, "My son, you have done well. When I was your age, I was not as meticulous as you are. And my son has been fortunate to be born at such a good time... Do not blame yourself, do not be modest. This time we are very likely to succeed and bring glory to our family!"

The previous dynasty seized the opportunity to rise up and take over the country because the Great Yong was invaded by enemy forces. The Yong family can also take advantage of the invasion of the Great Wei by the Western Rong and Eastern Mo allied forces to rise up, kill the Wei royal family, and take back the country!

"From this moment on, you will observe mourning for your maternal grandfather and organize the memorial services for him. Your grandfather cannot have died in vain, do you understand?"

Yong Yuan: "Your son understands."

"Very good, go ahead and do it." Although Yong Zhi hated Emperor Wuxing for ruining his grand plan to use the death of Marquis Wenchang to win popular support for his family.

However, he is alive, and as long as he is alive, he can find a way to turn the death of Marquis Wenchang into a good thing!

However, what puzzled Yongzhi was how the body of Marquis Wenchang could have disappeared. His orders were clearly to dismember the body, and even to send the dismembered body of Marquis Wenchang to the Eastern Desert people.

The people of Dongmo will surely use the remains of Marquis Wenchang to mock the Great Wei, and he will gain even more pity, which will then turn into popular support for him.

But now the body is gone.

Fortunately, both the people of the Northeast and Emperor Wuxing ruled that Marquis Wenchang was killed by the enemy. If they had ruled that he deserted or defected to the enemy, the Yong family would have been finished.

The letter said that they had searched and inquired, but they still didn't know where the body was.

It was wartime, and half of Tianmang Prefecture had been occupied by the enemy, so they could no longer investigate and could only do this.

waste!

Yong Zhi cursed Wen Baihu and his men in his heart, but then he rallied his spirits and went to the government office to raise money, grain, and troops for Emperor Wuxing to help the northeastern prefecture resist the enemy.

Today, Yongzhi also met Sun Xun and the old military doctor Lin. These two were going in and out of the Imperial Hospital and went to various departments to explain how to prevent rat plague and the key points of cultivating bacteria and making medicine.

Yongzhi sent officials from prominent families to question them in detail: "Does such a thing as a sponge really exist? Does this sponge really have actinomycetes? Do the actinomycetes really have metabolites? And are these metabolites still alive, capable of being cultivated for more than ten generations?"

Sun Xun explained it to them, but it was something new, and the aristocratic officials couldn't understand it at all. They wanted to ask more questions, but the old military doctor Lin called Sun Xun away: "Xunzi, hurry to the Imperial Hospital, move your things, and prepare to set off for Lingnan Prefecture to meet up with your master and the others! Lingnan Prefecture is the main battlefield for cultivating bacteria and making medicine!"

"Hey, hey, I'm here." Xunzi clasped his hands and said, "My lords, the matter of cultivating bacteria to make medicine is not just empty talk. I hope you will support us. I'll take my leave now."

Xunzi immediately ran away with the old military doctor, Lin.

On July 30th, when the first batch of soldiers and cavalry set off for the Northeast Prefecture, Xunzi and the old military doctor Lin also led a group of imperial physicians to the Lingnan Prefecture.

……

July in Lingnan Prefecture is the hottest time of the year, but what's even hotter than the weather is the crowds at the seaside.
