Chapter 673 Isn’t this intentional to rub salt into other people’s wounds?

Xiao Hanzheng didn't say much, and directly handed over the letter and news that had been sent from the Beiwang Mansion.

"I promised you, and I will certainly not break my promise."

"You also have people in Ge Country. I believe you will receive news in a few days."

Xiao Yuanshi hurriedly took the letter and read it.

After reading it, a look of relief appeared on his face, "Okay, it's good that these two people are disabled."

He was injured by the other party and his legs were crippled. Now he saw that the mother and son were the same, and he felt refreshed.

He was drugged by Ge Chun and could no longer have any heirs. The son whom Ge Chunru's mother valued most was trampled by a horse and became an eunuch, which made him want to laugh three times. He deserved it and was retribution.

When that woman plotted against him, she didn't know if she ever thought that their mother and son would be where they are today.

After reading the letter, he raised his head and looked at Xiao Hanzheng, "Did you arrange for someone to provoke you?"

Xiao Hanzheng raised his eyebrows, "What else?"

If he didn't arrange it like this, Princess Bei would only focus on how to save her son, and wouldn't have much energy to find fault with Ge Chunruniang.

Only when his people wake up Princess Bei will she take such crazy revenge.

In fact, although it was a provocation, it was mostly true. Ge Chunru's mother was not innocent.

Xiao Yuanshi looked at him complicatedly, "Thank you very much!"

This son was so good that he couldn't believe it.

It would be great if they had not broken off their relationship. Even if he was disabled, others would not look at him with contempt and sympathy, but with envy and jealousy.

With such a son, he can live up to his ancestors and have successors.

Xiao Hanzheng sneered, "You're welcome. After all, we are just exchanging interests."

"If there is no price you are willing to pay, I will naturally not meddle in others' affairs."

These words were also meant to put an end to Daddy's desire to ease the relationship.

Sure enough, Xiao Yuanshi's expression changed.

He took the initiative to express his gratitude because he wanted to ease the conflict between father and son and repair the broken relationship.

But I didn't expect to be seen through.

He was a little embarrassed and sad, so he immediately changed the subject, "When will you return to Beicheng?"

Xiao Hanzheng said truthfully: "We will set off back in a few days."

He received the news that the emperor's arrangement for him was finalized. He was no longer the acting prefect, but became the full prefect of Beicheng, and his rank was upgraded to the fourth rank.

Xiao Yuanshi thought for a while and said, "Can I come with you?"

He is already useless and there is no use staying at the border.

There will definitely be someone to replace the position of deputy governor, and he is going back to Beicheng to wait for news.

Xiao Hanzheng nodded, "Okay!"

Xiao Yuanshi took out a roster and a seal from his arms and handed them to Xiao Hanzheng.

"This is the reward we agreed upon at the beginning."

These things are no longer useful to him.

Moreover, he also knew his son's temperament. If he cheated on his promise and got it done, the consequences would not be good.

No matter what, he only had two divorced sons now, and he didn't want to make the dispute worse.

"Then let's settle the previous transaction!" Xiao Hanzheng took it, looked at the roster and passwords, and put the things away.

When Xiao Yuanshi heard "Liang Qing", he felt that the word was unfamiliar to him, but there was nothing he could do about it.

"I'm going back first. Let me know when you leave."

Xiao Hanzheng nodded, "Okay!"

After Xiao Yuanshi left, Shi Qingluo said, "His legs are broken, can he no longer be an official?"

Xiao Hanzheng nodded, "It's impossible to do it again."

"However, he cooperated with King Yi this time and was injured during the battle between the two armies, so he redeemed himself."

"I guess the emperor might give him a title like baron and let him take care of himself in old age."

Shi Qingluo pouted, "It's an advantage for him."

Nowadays, the titles of Daliang include Duke, Marquis, Uncle, Zi and Baron.

Viscounts and barons were either slowly weakened by their ancestors, or were given retirement positions without real power.

Xiao Hanzheng said with a smile: "The emperor still has to do the superficial work, otherwise it will chill the hearts of other veterans."

"Actually, it doesn't matter if you have an idle position. Don't forget that the best members of the Xiao family are still in Beicheng."

"After all, he is still a viscount. Those people from the old Xiao family will definitely want to fight for it."

He added: "When the time comes, Daddy's life will definitely be a mess. We can still go to the theater from time to time."

Shi Qingluo chuckled and said, "It's true that I have been pregnant for three years. I almost forgot about the best of the old Xiao family."

"You are still clever."

"Then it seems that it is really good for Scumbag to have a small title. He can use it as a big stick to hang the best of the old Xiao family and stick it to him to suck blood. No matter how hard it is, it can't be pulled off."

She still knows the personalities of those in the old Xiao family very well.

Xiao Hanzheng nodded and said, "That's what I think."

With the top bloodsuckers from the old Xiao family, I believe that Daddy Scumbag will never be lonely in his later years.

Shi Qingluo pinched his waist and said, "Zheng Zheng, you've learned badly."

Xiao Hanzheng held her hand and chuckled, "My wife taught me well."

Using the best to deal with a scumbag father has always been my daughter-in-law's strength.

Shi Qingluo raised her chin proudly, "That's it!"

A few days later, the imperial edict came from the capital.

As expected, Xiao Hanzheng was promoted to the fourth rank, and his position was changed from agent to full.

Because of his great military exploits, the emperor asked him to bring his family to Beijing within three months to receive the reward.

Originally there was no need for this, but the emperor couldn't bear that his younger brother was still single, so he wanted to let Xiao Hanzheng bring his family to Beijing, and also let his younger brother marry Kong Yuelan.

Xiao Hanzheng is very clear about the trends in the capital.

Everyone else thought it was a great honor to receive this imperial edict. Only he knew that this was because King Yi couldn't wait to marry his mother.

However, he never thought of objecting. His mother could not just follow King Yi without any name or status. The two of them liked each other and lived well together.

In addition to the imperial edict formally appointing Xiao Hanzheng, there are also arrangements for Xiao Yuanshi.

As Xiao Hanzheng expected, the emperor gave Xiao Yuanshi a baron title and placed his appointment in Nanxi County.

That means Daddy Scumbag can go back to his hometown in Nanxi County to take care of his old age.

Apparently the emperor was dissatisfied with Xiao Yuanshi's previous copying of the treasure map and his idea of ​​hiding it privately.

Also, after Xiao Yuanshi came to Northern Xinjiang, he did not make any great achievements. Instead, he was designed to almost lose the small town.

But no one knew about the treasure map, and the town was not lost in the end, so if the emperor didn't make arrangements, the ministers who had followed him might have thoughts or feel cold.

Therefore, the emperor granted Xiao Yuanshi a title but asked him to return to his hometown.

After listening to the imperial decree, Shi Qingluo discovered that the emperor actually hated his scumbag father, so he demoted him back to his hometown while conferring rewards.

The most amazing thing is that in order to show the emperor's kindness, the emperor actually made an exception and allowed Xiao Yuanshi's baronetcy to be passed on to the next generation.

Xiao Yuanshi couldn't give birth. The emperor naturally knew about it. Didn't he deliberately rub salt into his wounds?
