Chapter 629: The First Year of Chengxi, About to Leave for the Fiefdom
At the end of November, the emperor was buried.
The coffin was carried into the imperial mausoleum and sealed.
On the eighth day of the twelfth month, the new emperor ascended the throne and changed the country's name to Chengxi.
"Cheng" means to accept the mandate of heaven and to inherit the old year.
"Xi" means brightness and prosperity.
The new year is the first year of Chengxi.
The new emperor was also known as Emperor Chengxi.
After Emperor Chengxi ascended the throne, he honored the former Queen Chu as the Queen Mother.
All matters concerning the harem are arranged by the Queen Mother.
Emperor Chengxi was very smart. He knew clearly how he came to the throne, and he also knew that his uncle and aunt had rare treasures.
It would be a lie to say I'm not moved.
However, after experiencing the palace coup, witnessing the emperor's uncle's strategizing, seeing two puppets fighting against thousands of troops, and seeing the eight immortals exorcising demons,
He knew that he could be an enemy of anyone, but he absolutely could not be an enemy of the emperor's uncle and aunt.
He also knew that
If the emperor's uncle wants to be emperor, it has nothing to do with him.
It was because the emperor's uncle didn't want to be emperor that he became emperor.
He got a big bargain.
Therefore, no one can usurp the throne without the emperor's uncle.
He was a weak, pitiful and helpless little emperor. Only by holding on to his uncle's thigh could he let his aunt take him to fly.
Therefore, he gave his uncle and aunt all the conveniences he could give.
Yu Lingye felt more at ease with Emperor Chengxi.
Emperor Chengxi did not inherit Prince Zhe's cruelty and mental retardation like other princes, but inherited his mother's IQ and EQ more.
Because Emperor Chengxi had experienced all kinds of life and the vicissitudes of the world when he was young, and after all the hardships came the sweetness, he could empathize with the suffering of the people.
Yu Lingye believed that Emperor Chengxi would become a good emperor.
Yu Lingye's prediction was correct.
After inheriting the throne, Emperor Chengxi examined himself three times a day. He was humble, able to listen to honest advice even if it might be unpleasant to the ears, and able to distinguish right from wrong. He was concerned about the people's urgent needs and felt the people's suffering.
Emperor Chengxi had been poor before and was afraid of being poor, so he did not like extravagance. His favorite thing to do was to deposit money and grain into the national treasury.
Emperor Chengxi had been bullied before, so he issued strict orders that officials should not bully the weak and revised some laws.
Emperor Chengxi was very studious, respectful to wise and talented people, and recruited many talented people.
He also often sent people to the fiefdoms of his uncle and aunt to learn advanced technology and management experience, and then copied them back to the Dayu Dynasty.
Emperor Chengxi reigned for forty-five years.
During these forty-five years, the people lived and worked in peace and contentment, the country was at peace, and the rivers and seas were calm.
Later generations called it: the Chengxi prosperous era.
————This is a later story.
After Emperor Chengxi ascended the throne, the world was pacified.
Xie Yingmian and Yu Lingye also planned to go to the fiefdom before the rainy season.
In Prince Ling's Mansion, everyone has their own plans.
Wen Juexia was the first to find Xie Yingmian.
"Sister Mianmian." Wen Juexia's eyes were full of apology. "Do you remember what happened when we first met?"
"I lost to you then, and I promised you that I would be your maid for three years."
"I...may have to break my promise."
Xie Yingmian: "Tell me what you think."
Wen Juexia: "I want to go back to Feixue Mountain."
"Ever since Feixue Tower was destroyed, I've been dreaming about my senior and junior sisters. I dreamed they were waiting for me to return to Feixue Mountain."
"I often have dreams like this."
Wen Juexia's tears flowed down: "I miss them very much."
For more than a year, Xie Yingmian has been observing Wen Juexia.
Ever since the fall of the Twin Lotus Sect, Wen Juexia has been in a very low mood and can never return to her former liveliness and unrestrainedness.
He looked very depressed, didn't talk much, and was always in a daze, as if he had a thousand things on his mind.
"I only told you to be my maid for three years, but I didn't say you had to stay by my side," Xie Yingmian said. "No matter where you are, as long as you are willing to admit that you belong to me, you won't break your promise."
Wen Juexia's eyes were filled with tears.
"Sister Mianmian!"
"You're so kind, I..."
Xie Yingmian handed over a handkerchief: "Wipe your tears and snot."
Wen Juexia wiped her nose vigorously: "I want to go back to Feixue Mountain with my sister and rebuild Feixue Tower."
"I don't want to be called Feixue Tower anymore. I want to change it to Xinxue Pavilion."
"I want to adopt girls who were abandoned or sold because of the preference for boys over girls. I want to teach them kung fu and literacy, so that they can have a new life."
Xie Yingmian chuckled: "Just do it if you want to."
"Prince Ling and I can also contribute."
Wen Juexia shook her head: "There is a lot of money in Feixue Tower. All that money has fallen into my hands. Adding the compensation from my biological parents, I am afraid that I will never be able to squander all the money in this lifetime. I just want to do something meaningful."
Xie Yingmian didn't force it.
She knew that Wen Juexia had never been able to get over the hurdle in his heart.
Wen Juexia wanted to use this method to heal the regrets of the rest of his life.
"Tell me if you have any difficulties." Xie Yingmian said, "Don't forget that you are mine."
Wen Juexia quickly packed her bags and left Prince Ling's Mansion with Wen Zhiqing.
Their carriage raised a cloud of dust until it disappeared.
Zhuyue and Yumo wiped their tears and said goodbye reluctantly.
Xie Yingmian smiled and said to them, "Xia Xia is pursuing her dream. We should be happy for her."
Zhuyue and Tamamo nodded heavily, "Yes, we should be happy."
The day of leaving for the fiefdom is getting closer.
There are many things to prepare and many things to arrange.
Xie Yingmian became increasingly busy.
What she was most worried about was the affordable medical clinic that she had worked so hard to establish.
Fortunately, affordable medical clinics are back on track.
Xie Yingmian specially found a time to summon Wen Ge back from the affordable medical clinic.
She was planning to give the position of director of the affordable medical clinic to Wen Ge.
Wen Ge kept waving his hands.
Wen Ge's poison has been cured, but some sequelae remain.
For example, my speech is not as fluent as that of ordinary people, and my hearing is not as good as that of ordinary people.
She was afraid that she would not be able to do the job.
Xie Yingmian smiled and said, "Your medical skills are obvious to all. You are qualified for this position."
“Besides, Shen Tingsi and Qin Shuqing will stay in Shangjing.”
"I've already communicated with Qin Shuqing. You'll be the dean, and she'll be the vice-dean. If anything comes up, you two can discuss it."
Xie Yingmian's original idea was to hire Qin Shuqing as the dean.
Qin Shuqing's father is the director of the hospital. She has been influenced by him since she was a child and has sufficient management experience.
But, as luck would have it, Qin Shuqing was pregnant.
She had severe pregnancy reactions, so she declined Xie Yingmian's offer.
Xie Yingmian wanted to let Qin Shuqing be the vice president, so that she wouldn't have to go to the clinic on weekdays. Wen Ge, who spent all day at the affordable clinic, would be the president, and Qin Shuqing agreed.
Wen Ge was still very conflicted.
Xie Yingmian smiled and said, "Wenge, I believe in your ability, and you must also believe in yourself."
"Besides Qin Shuqing, there is also Qing Huang."
"If there's a problem you really can't solve, go find him. If he can't solve it, come to me. I'll be able to solve it eventually."
Wen Ge asked Xie Yingmian why he didn't let Qing Huang be the dean.
Xie Yingmian was also helpless.
Her first choice for dean was Qing Huang.
But Fan Jingzhou refused to let him go.
Fan Jingzhou knew very well that Qinghuang was not his son at all, but he still treated Qinghuang as his own son and handed over the Fan family army to Qinghuang.
This was the unanimous decision of the Fan family.
Fan Yue's legs were reconnected and he could barely walk a few steps with the help of crutches.
However, his martial arts skills could no longer be restored to their previous state, and he could no longer fight in the army.
Fan Jingzhou's elder brother has recovered a little, but he is unable to go to the battlefield.
Fan Jingzhou knew that he was unreliable and not cut out to lead troops in battle, so he didn't want to mislead his young men.
Therefore, Qinghuang, who has extremely high martial arts skills and is familiar with various military tactics, has become the hope of the Fan family.
Qing Huang is originally set to be a commanding bionic human. Asking him to lead an army is like a mouse falling into a rice jar.
He agreed without thinking.
Therefore, Qing Huang could no longer serve as the dean.
Wen Ge never expected that Qing Huang would cross over to become a general.
She pursed her lips and said, "Don't worry, Princess. I will try my best."
Now that the affordable medical clinic had been entrusted to him, Xie Yingmian’s biggest worry was finally resolved.
Soon, spring passed and summer came.
The weather is getting hotter.
Xie Yingmian was also ready and was just waiting to set off.
Prince Ling's mansion needed trusted personnel to guard it, and Yan Qing, as the housekeeper, was supposed to stay.
But, the fiefdom needs Yan Qing.
Yan Lingyue and Wutong also need to stay with Xie Yingmian for treatment.
Therefore, Fu Mo took the initiative to suggest that Yan Qing go to the fiefdom, while he and Fu Feng stayed behind.
The reason why Fu Mo stayed was very simple.
Because Tu Bufan is getting married.
