Chapter 455 Warm Days (3)
"Brother, what should we do now?"

Xie Qian rolled his eyes at Xie Sui, "What's wrong with you just giving the picture of the sea to the emperor? You are from Hua Yu, shouldn't you deserve it?"

"But the Nanyue people are kind to me, and my wife is kind to me. I can't let them get into trouble."

"If you keep saying this, you want your wife to be pushed to death. The emperor is afraid that she will be a thorn in his side." After speaking, he paused and took a breath, "Actually, this matter needs to be resolved, and the lives of younger siblings must be saved , It’s all in your mind. You always refuse, to be honest, if you are not my brother, I would wonder if you have become the secret agent of the South Vietnamese.”

Xie Sui said angrily: "I am a descendant of the Xie family in Yunyang, no matter how worthless I am, I will never collude with the enemy and betray the country."

"That's right, my Xie family in Yunyang has no children who are collaborators and traitors."

Seeing the people walking in from the outside, both Xie Qian and Xie Sui stood up, one called 'Father' and the other 'Uncle'.

"Sit down. Sui'er, I think Qian'er has told you everything you need to say. Are you refusing to cooperate with the imperial court because of the kindness that the South Yue people have treated you?"

Xie Sui lowered his head, "Nephew doesn't want to see the flames of war between the two countries resume, and the people be displaced."

"But will you really help things by doing this? As you said, the emperor really wants to fight South Vietnam, and you can spend more manpower, material and financial resources on the things in your hand."

"This one……"

Xie Huaiyuan waved his hand, "Listen to what Uncle said. Moreover, Hua Yu's merchant ships have not been protected by advanced warships these years, and they are often robbed on the road. Over time, the way to do business overseas is almost broken. Didn't you also fancy this Business opportunities, I think it is a lucrative business to ship spices and jewelry from overseas to sell, and then ship silk tea to the sea for trade. But the cost is also very high, once it is robbed, it will hurt its vitality. Otherwise, it is not good to do this business There will be a few. From my uncle’s point of view, the emperor does not necessarily want to fight South Vietnam. If you can let South Vietnam return to you without going to war, I think the emperor will be more happy. It’s just that you really pissed him off now. Not only do you have useful information and refuse to inform the court, but you also have a Nanyue wife by your side. If your surname is not Xie, you may have died long ago."

Xie Sui was still hesitant, if the emperor really used the sea chart he handed over, there would be a further advanced technology for him to sneak in to steal the South Vietnamese warship.Invading South Vietnam with these two, wouldn't he be repaying kindness with hatred and revenge with kindness.He and his wife are a couple in need, so they have no choice but to go to the point of breaking up.

"I've run out of words, I'll give you another seven days to think about it. Is it more important to gain or lose your own reputation, or the interests of your family and the country? Your father will arrive in Beijing in seven days. If you still insist on doing this by then, you don't need the emperor to do it." , your father can behead your daughter-in-law the first time."

Xie Sui's face changed, if it was about the life and death of the whole family, Dad could do it.It's just a daughter-in-law, so what if she has grandchildren?

"Nephew Rong, think about it again." Xie Sui frowned so much that he was about to squeeze out the word Sichuan.

"There is not much time, you make up your mind as soon as possible. Qian'er, let's go."

"Yes."

After getting into the carriage with his father, Xie Qian asked, "Father, second uncle is really coming?"

"Well, such a big event happened again because of Brother Sui. As a father, I always told him. Sui'er is smart, but he's a little..."

"It doesn't work!" Xie Qian said softly.

"Yes. The environment makes a person. Sui'er has almost never been bound by anything. She is used to being loose, but she also has treasures in her body."

"Then this time..."

"People have to bow their heads under the eaves. What's more, as a Huayu person, the interests of the family and the country are higher than personal gains and losses." Xie Huaiyuan said seriously, "If he even forgets righteousness, then he is not worthy to serve me. Children of the Xie family. What is a country? What is a clan? What is a family?"

"However, the second younger brother just said that the emperor took the charts and planned warship crafts to attack South Vietnam. When he came back, he saw sailors Chen Bing on the border."

Xie Huaiyuan looked at Xie Qian suspiciously, "Is there really something about attacking South Vietnam?"

"The son didn't hear the news, and the emperor didn't reveal anything."

Xie Huaiyuan thought for a while, "I'm afraid it's not that the emperor didn't say anything. The emperor definitely doesn't intend to fight at this time. Otherwise, you, the minister of the Ministry of household affairs, can't see any signs? The soldiers and horses have not moved the food and grass, you take care of it." But the imperial court’s money pockets can’t hide anything from you.”

"My son just said that to my second brother, but he doesn't believe it. In his eyes, I'm afraid we are all lobbyists sent by the emperor. Moreover, he asked me if I can be sure that there will be no such battle in the future. To be honest Yes, it's hard to say. The emperor wants to be a promising king, and I'm afraid he really has plans to expand his territory in the future."

"Nanyue was originally my Hua Yu's vassal state, but Hua Yu has been weak for decades, and they have gradually become disobedient. If they want to regain them, I am afraid there will be a battle. However, not now, at least in five years. Qian'er, the next 20 years may really be a time of change. You were born at the right time, and you will surely be able to show your ambitions."

"Father, I..." Xie Qian didn't say anything, but what he wanted to do naturally needed the emperor's appreciation.The wind followed the dragon, the cloud followed the tiger, and he also imagined that his fame would be passed on for thousands of years like the heroes who were listed in the third hall of Luoxia Mountain.

"Father naturally wants to help you. The queen and the fourth prince also need your help today. But you have also seen the matter of your second brother. The majesty of the imperial power is so majestic, turning your hands into clouds and raining your hands. You have to take the helm to thank your family Leave a way out."

Xie Qian thought of several children of the same clan who were sent overseas by his father. They were all recorded as dying in the genealogy. They had been planning for a total of eight years, six of them.And they are all humble young children or bastards.

"The emperor just had doubts about that matter, but it was just a suspicion, and there was no evidence. Few of Xie's family knew about it. Now, they have taken root overseas and spread their branches and leaves. But the existing clansmen, you We have to leave a way for them to survive. We are the head of the family, because we have not been in the clan all year round, so I gave up the position of patriarch to your second uncle. The whole clan is united, and nothing can happen. It is bound to be damaged. I think you brothers and sisters all know this." Alas, if the Xie family did not occupy a high position, it would be very difficult to have their current position in Shilin.The Xie family's children will not be uniquely blessed, respected and envied by the world.As is always the case, there are pros and cons.It's just that the balance between advance and retreat cannot be lost.

Xie Qian nodded, "Yes, my son has remembered what Dad said. I will always remember it, and I can't forget to shrink my hands when I am behind, and I have no way to turn back."

"It's good that you can remember. Dad is old, and it will depend on your generation in the future. Dad failed to control the younger sister, and failed to keep the reserve for Duke Huai. You can't repeat the same mistakes."
