Chapter 956 The Whereabouts of the 7th Prince
After Xie Yujin returned to Beijing, he went to the Duke's Mansion. After packing everything, he entered the palace early the next morning.
Only after Emperor Ping Zhao retired from court did he summon him to the imperial study.
Xie Yujin knelt down gracefully to pay homage to the new emperor, without any dissatisfaction or jealousy. Instead, she felt fortunate that Xie Yuzhang was able to sit on the throne while she was able to get out of it.
But it would be better if my mother didn’t die.
Xie Yuzhang was very satisfied with his attitude. After letting him stand up, he allowed him to sit down and said, "I called you back here specially because I have something to tell you."
It's just a matter of an imperial edict, there's no need to be so troublesome.
Xie Yujin thought to himself, but he didn't show it on his face. He smiled and said, "I wonder what your Royal Brother wants to say to me."
The words "Royal Brother" made Xie Yuzhang feel warm again.
These days he has been trying to figure out where Xie Yujin is going. As for what Concubine Shu has done, the Duke's Mansion doesn't dare to say a word about how he treats Xie Yujin.
However, Xie Yujin is truly innocent and a person who does not fight or compete with others. There is no reason for him to live a miserable life for the rest of his life because of his mother.
"Your cousin is getting married, and I asked you to come back, so of course you should go to watch the wedding."
Even without Xie Yuzhang's summons, they should have been back soon. After all, Xu Zhao had made a fuss several times about going back to Kyoto City, fearing that he would miss his brother and sister-in-law's wedding.
Emperor Ping Zhao continued, "Besides, the princes of the previous emperor have all been granted fiefs and have left one after another. As the seventh prince, you have your own residence in the capital. It would be a disgrace to ask you to go to such a poor place."
"Brother, I just want to stay in the army. I like it there."
What Xie Yujin said was true. Although he did not have any ideal of unifying the world, he still had the ambition to guard the border.
The prerequisite for all this is to follow his uncle, Duke Weiguo, to gain experience.
Fortunately, Xie Yuzhang was not the suspicious emperor, otherwise, Xie Yujin's heartfelt words would have seemed like treason to him.
Why not go to the fiefdom?
Why do you want to stay in the military?
"Why don't you first listen to where the fiefdom I give you is?"
Emperor Ping Zhao asked.
Xie Yujin shook his head: "Whatever the emperor gives must be good, but I like the military camp and the battlefield. The emperor just needs to be a good emperor and seek the welfare of the people of the world. I am willing to gain experience in the military camp to protect our Dali country and our people."
Xie Yuzhang was deeply moved by these words.
In the past, the Seventh Prince was always erratic, unsteady, and acted like a child all day long.
But how long have you been training in the military camp?
How could he say such passionate words!
If Xie Yujin can really do it, he may become a military general of Dali in the future.
He would have to wait until Duke Weiguo returned to the capital to hear his evaluation of Xie Yujin before making any decision on this matter.
As for the matter of the fiefdom, let’s put it on hold for now.
"I know your idea, but I will tell you where your fiefdom is first."
"where?"
"Yuzhou."
Yuzhou?
"Didn't my uncle lead the troops to Yuzhou?"
The emperor actually gave him Yuzhou as his fiefdom.
If the weather is good, Yuzhou will be the granary of Dali!
"Yeah, that's it."
After Emperor Ping Zhao answered his question, he said, "Go back and think about it first. It won't be too late to discuss this matter after your cousin's marriage."
Xie Yujin would make a careful comparison between the bitter and cold frontier and the prosperous Yuzhou Prefecture.
