In the four years of the Great Zhou Changye, few companies lived happily.

Countless families lost their sons, husbands and fathers in the second war against Goguryeo.

Emperor Dezhen was so angry that he lost his temper in the palace. It is said that he will conquer Goguryeo by himself in the coming year, and he refuses to withdraw his troops lightly.

Since the conscription order of Emperor Dezhen, Xiao Xiangsheng has deliberately made good friends with the chief eunuchs in the palace, hoping to get news from the palace in time and make preparations early.

When he heard the news that Emperor Dezhen not only refused to accept the lesson, but also wanted to expand the scale of the war, and that he would go on a personal conquest next year, he was completely disappointed in Emperor Dezhen.

When Emperor Dezhen was crown prince, there was a huge contrast with him now after he ascended the throne as emperor.

Knowing the face but not the heart.

The Empress Dowager Ouyang, who strongly supported her eldest son who was dethroned, and supported her younger son as crown prince, did she regret it even more...

In the blink of an eye, it was the first month of the fifth year of Changye in the Great Zhou Dynasty. Du Xiancheng took Fang Wuniang and his two daughters Du Hengshuang and Du Hengxue back to Luoyang to worship their ancestors. Before leaving, he came to Xiao's house and asked Xiao Xiangsheng if he had anything to take back.

Both of them are from Luoyang, and most of their relatives and friends are in Luoyang.

Xiao Xiangsheng sat in the study room and pondered for a long time, but still waved his hands and said: "It's not easy for you to take care of your family, so you don't have to bring anything for my family."——You should bring more followers, go early and return early. Now , Alas..." He seemed hesitant to speak.

Du Xiancheng understood what Xiao Xiangsheng was thinking, and quickly assured him: "Brother, don't worry, I have brought twenty guards. Among them, Uncle Qian's skills, I don't even need to mention Brother." He laughed a little self-deprecatingly and said: "I also have several guards. I haven't been back to Luoyang for the past year, and the weather is fine this year, and there is no strong wind or snow, and the road is easy to walk..."

Xiao Xiangsheng's complexion became more and more ugly, and Du Xiancheng couldn't continue speaking.

The winter is as warm as spring, and it is the same in the south of the Yangtze River and the north of the Yangtze River. This kind of climate is really not good.Not only is it bad, but it is brewing a catastrophe.

"If this weather continues, the harvest in the village will definitely be poor this year. By the way, I have to go to the south of the Yangtze River to check the few farms we have set up. The rent must be reduced. It depends on the situation. Whether to let it go Come on, let me explain to you first. When you and I return to Chang'an, we will plan carefully." Xiao Xiangsheng walked to the window of the study with his hands behind his back, looked at the double-petalled peonies blooming in the yard in winter, and said for a long time I can't speak.

Du Xiancheng nodded, "I always listen to my elder brother. No matter what elder brother wants to do, count me in."

Xiao Xiangsheng turned his head back with a smile, and nodded slightly to Du Xiancheng, "My brother, I'm out of touch if I say that. ——When are you going to leave?"

"Leave early tomorrow morning. After half a month, I'll be back after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month." Du Xiancheng got up and said goodbye to Xiao Xiangsheng, "Our Zhuangzi in Jiangnan is also in the hands of the eldest brother, so you don't need to discuss with me."

Xiao Xiangsheng watched Du Xiancheng go out, hurried back to the inner courtyard, and said to Long Xiangye: "Help me and Brother Ji pack up, I will take him to Jiangnan to check the farm tomorrow."

Looking at the abnormal weather in winter and the news of the disastrous defeat of the Da Zhou army, Long Xiangye was also upset, and couldn't help objecting: "My lord, it doesn't look peaceful now, so I'd better stay in Chang'an, as long as It doesn’t matter if the whole family is together and eat bran swallowed vegetables.”

Xiao Xiangsheng took a deep look at her, stretched out his hand to shake her shoulder, and still insisted, "You don't have to worry, I have my own measure."

"But Brother Ji is only eight years old." Long Xiangye murmured, "He has grown so big, he has never left my side and spent the night outside. Master..."

Xiao Xiangsheng's calm face became serious again, and he said coldly: "He's a boy, what's the matter with you keeping him at home all the time? He's only eight years old?——You know that when I was eight years old, I followed him My elder brother and second elder brother are out helping to manage the farm. Although he is only eight years old, he is tall and tall. He looks about the same age as someone who is twelve or thirteen years old. What are you worried about? Besides, it is better to travel thousands of miles than to read thousands of books Lu. He has been studying Chinese and martial arts all these years, I personally took him with him, and there are dozens of guards, big and small, why don't you let go?"

What he said made Long Xiangye speechless, and felt that he couldn't explain the truth to this man.

"Father, mother, my uncle and my aunt are here to pay New Year's greetings." A clear voice sounded, and then, a boy in a light blue quilted gown with a rhinoceros leather belt around his waist walked in briskly , born almost exactly the same as Xiao Xiangsheng, handsome and unparalleled, but less calm and heavy than Xiao Xiangsheng who is over thirty years old.

"Brother Ji is here, and your father and I are talking about you. ——Master, since the younger brother and younger siblings are here, I will take them to mother's yard." Long Xiangye quickly turned her smile, not wanting to let Xiao Shiji saw her and Xiao Xiang having a dispute.

Xiao Xiangsheng said "Yes", and waved to Xiao Shiji, "You wait for me in the outer study, and I will go say hello to your uncle, and then go to the outer study to talk to you."

The uncle Xiao Shiji was talking about was Xiao Ruisheng, Xiao Xiangsheng's younger brother, who just married him a wife last year and officially separated.

Xiao Xiangsheng's mother, Gu Shi, loved her youngest son the most, and wanted to go out and have another time with him, but the youngest daughter-in-law opened her mouth and felt that she had been cheated. Slapping the table and hitting the bench, she doesn't look like a newlywed.

Gu Shi has never suffered much in her life. Although the two eldest sons are gone, at that time, their master supported the house and took good care of her, and did not let her know about troubles.After Xiao Xiangsheng came back from the battlefield, he was able to fight hard again, and soon the family business recovered, and even improved to a higher level than the previous Xiao family.

She was taken to Chang'an by Xiao Xiangsheng, and she has been living the life of a rich and old emperor, not to mention how comfortable it is.

Being treated like this by the younger daughter-in-law at the younger son's house, Gu was so angry that his heart ached every day, crying to the younger son about his daughter-in-law's unfilial piety.

Helplessly, Xiao Ruisheng and his wife just got married, and it was the time when the fight was hot, and he was also very troubled by Gu Shi's crying every day. Later, he simply hired a car and took Gu Shi back to Xiao Xiangsheng's house, claiming that Xiao Xiangsheng was his brother. is the younger brother.Caring for the elderly has always been the responsibility of the eldest son.It is also said that the eldest son is not filial if he lets the younger son live in retirement. ——He couldn't allow his elder brother to be charged with unfilial piety, so he sent Gu Shi back.

This was the first time Xiao Ruisheng came to visit her after sending Gu Shi back to Xiao Xiangsheng's home.

Xiao Xiangsheng was completely disappointed with this younger brother, and he didn't expect him to be more obedient, as long as he didn't cause trouble for him, he would be thankful.

Xiao Shiji also knew this matter clearly, and said with a smile: "The son just came out from the grandmother's place, so he stopped following him. ——The son went to the study outside to wait for Daddy."

Xiao Xiangsheng waved his hand and followed Long Xiangye to Gu's courtyard to meet Xiao Ruisheng and his wife.

Soon after the [-]th day of the first lunar month, Du Xiancheng came back from Luoyang with his whole family. After a busy month, he packed up his things and arranged for the newly recruited staff.

In March, Du Xiancheng calculated Xiao Xiangsheng's itinerary to Jiangnan, and it was time to go home soon, so he frequently sent people to Xiao's house to inquire about the news, only to find out that Xiao Xiangsheng took Xiao Shiji to Jiangnan. When I came back, I was anxious for a while.
