Chapter 2120 Together
Manbao smiled and said, "That's just what I said. Actually, we guess one or two years should be enough."
I just planned a five-month ceremony for them:
He was curious, "How do you plan your time?"
Man Bao said, "I heard there's a Buddhist mountain in Liangzhou with cliff carvings. We'd like to go see it and stay for about four or five days. The trade fair at Yumen Pass is also very famous. I heard that 90% of merchants coming from the west have to pass through Yumen Pass to enter..."
Yin Li understood. The five months he calculated did not include the time they spent watching Jing'er and shopping. However, according to their plan, even if they did not include these, five months would not be enough for them, right?
Yin Li suddenly felt more relieved, so he simply stopped asking and let her leave with the bow he had given her.
Manbao ran straight back to Chongwenguan.
As soon as she entered the door, she went straight to the classroom.
There were only eight people in the classroom, and there were a lot of books piled on each person's desk. Most of them were looking at the books in front of them with a headache. Zhao Liulang was holding a pen, and his brows were almost wrinkled.
Manbao slipped to the back door, peeked inside, and didn't see the gentleman inside. Then he looked behind him, and seeing that no one was paying attention, he made a "puff puff" sound.
Everyone in the classroom raised their heads and looked at me with sharp eyes.
When they saw it was Zhou Man, most people's eyes dimmed and they lowered their heads and ignored her. Why her? That was boring.
Bai Shan took a look outside, quietly stood up and walked to the last table to sit down. Man Bao saw a figure swaying in the office not far away, and immediately sat in and sat at the same table with him.
Bai Erlang picked up a few books from the table and handed them back, and Lu Yue reluctantly passed them to them.
There were soon books on Bai Shan and Man Bao's desks. They propped up the books and talked in whispers with their heads down.
It was mainly Manbao who spoke and Baishan who listened.
The others didn't pay much attention at first, but a few people who were close by vaguely heard the word "Western Regions" and couldn't help but prick up their ears to listen.
Yin Huo's eyes were fixed on the book in front of him, but his ears pricked up to listen. However, the two people spoke very softly, so he didn't hear anything.
Bai Shan glanced at Yin Huo's back and whispered to Man Bao, "I'll ask him about this."
Manbao nodded and was about to say something when Zhao Liulang suddenly coughed lightly, and they felt a gaze cast from the side.
Manbao and Baishan looked up together and saw Kong Jijiu standing outside the window with his hands behind his back, staring at them.
Manbao slowly sat up straight, opened the book in his hand, lowered his head and pretended to be reading seriously.
Bai Shan calmly opened the book in her hand to page 68 and said in front of Kong Jijiu, "Annotate 'Xiao Wan'."
Manbao's eyes fell on the page he opened. "Like the doves singing, their feathers soaring to the sky. My heart is filled with sorrow, thinking of my ancestors..."
Manbao breathed a sigh of relief. She knew Xiaowan from the ten articles about Ji Nanshan.
Manbao rolled up his sleeves and was about to pick up a pen, only to discover with embarrassment that there were books on their desk but no pens or ink, let alone paper.
She straightened her sleeves without changing her expression and lowered her head to continue reading.
Kong Jijiu stared at them for a long time, and after making sure that they would not cause trouble again, he turned and left.
As soon as he left, Manbao breathed a sigh of relief, but before he could finish breathing, a gong was struck outside, signaling the end of get out of class.
Manbao: ...
Bai Shan couldn't help but burst out laughing when he saw her expression. He stood up and put the book away. "Let's go. It's time for dinner."
Bai Shan went to see Yin Huo after dinner.
When he came over, Manbao and Bai Erlang were squatting side by side, poking at the mud in the flower bed. Seeing him coming, they immediately stood up and asked, "How about it, Yin Huo, do you want to go to the Western Regions with us?"
Bai Shan nodded, "Because the matter has not been finalized, he is not in a position to tell us."
He looked at Manbao, "What did Lord Yin say? Did he agree?"
Manbao thought for a moment and then said, "He didn't say it directly, but I heard that he agreed."
Bai Shan raised his eyebrows and said, "If Yin Huo goes too, we won't have to worry about that person's hands."
Manbao nodded, after all, his father was the one who controlled the imperial guards.
Bai Shan said, "Even if we don't transfer troops from the Imperial Guard, the Yin family's generals alone are quite powerful. With them leading the way, we won't get lost once we enter the desert."
He added, "Besides, we have to pass through many important towns along the way. His family has relatives in the army, so it will be much easier for us to pass through. I have agreed with him that if his father asks about this matter again, we will intercede on his behalf."
But Yin Li didn't give them this opportunity at all.
The emperor's decree came down the next day. First, Yin Huo was granted the title of Marquis of Ping'an County, and then he was allowed to accompany the Imperial Medical Service delegation on a mission to the Western Regions.
Yin Huo himself didn't expect that his father would ask for a title for him first. When he received the imperial edict, he was stunned for a while before he reached out to take it.
As soon as the eunuch who announced the decree left, Zhao Liulang and the others immediately surrounded him, saying with envy and jealousy, "Great! You've been granted a title in no time."
Zhao Liulang was the most envious, because even his father would not give him a title. It is good to have fewer sons, because the credit can be shared less.
Yin Li has made many contributions over the years, and even if he has no merits, he has worked hard, but he has never been promoted. He has always stayed in the position of commander of the imperial guards, guarding the palace gates and protecting the safety of the capital with due diligence.
He's keeping all these achievements, and I heard he wants to leave them to his grandson...
Ahem, of course he is not Yin Huo’s son, but the son of Yin Huo’s sixth sister. Yin Huo’s sixth sister has already married a man. If nothing unexpected happens, the Yin family will be inherited by her son in the future.
If a son-in-law inherits the title, the rank will be lowered by one level, and if the title is inherited directly by his son, the rank will be lowered by another level. Therefore, if the Yin family still wants to keep the title of marquis, Yin Li must work very hard to make the emperor feel nostalgic and make an exception to let his grandson inherit the title of marquis directly.
Yin Li is now asking for a title for Yin Huo, and naturally he is using his past merits. But when his grandson inherits the title in the future... Yin Li will have to work harder then.
When Yin Huo received the imperial edict, everyone couldn't help but urge him to treat the guests. "For such a big event, let's not talk about the wine, at least two big tables in the Zhuangyuan Building are necessary, right?"
Yin Huo rolled up the imperial edict, smiled slightly and said, "If I can get out, I will naturally not be stingy with a meal."
Everyone remembered that there were still six days before the day off, and they couldn't help but wail and shouted, "Then please go to the palace first."
"That's right. While it's still warm, we can still eat hot pot. Give the imperial kitchen some money and ask them to prepare a mutton spine stew as the base for the hot pot. We can boil some vegetables and make a few snacks, and that'll be enough."
"Yes, we don't ask for much."
Yin Huo was very happy because he had achieved his wish. He glanced at Bai Shan and the other two, smiled and said, "Okay, let's eat the pot then."
So Yin Huo gave money to the eunuch and asked him to prepare it in the imperial kitchen.
So as soon as the get out of class was over in the afternoon, everyone dropped their books and ran to the dormitory. Manbao also put down his pen, collected his medical books and went back.
The eunuchs separated a large room in Yin Huo's room and put several tables together, which was just enough for the nine of them to sit.
See you tomorrow
