Others don't know it, but they always think that the descendants of the nobles are all good. In fact, Bi Xin knows that although the nobles have all kinds of glory, it has been thirty years since the founding of the country. Suppressing military generals has become the mainstream, and the influence of the nobles in the military is not as big as before. .
There is nothing wrong with noble disciples reaching the eighth rank as soon as they join the army, but there are very few who can reach the fifth rank. Only by taking this step can they make a difference in the military.
Just when Bi Xin was thinking this, an angry man walked towards him and blocked the way.
"Bixin!" The visitor called him by his name.
"Brother." When Bi Xin saw the person coming, he covered the emotions in his eyes and shouted.
As usual, the visitor gave the order directly: "I heard about you, you are really confused! Can you accept this official position? When you go tomorrow, go to Dai Guogong and resign to him. Do you hear this? ?”
Bi Xinxin suddenly burst into flames, but after being suppressed for these years, patience has become a habit. He gritted his teeth and finally just explained: "Brother, I have accepted it. If I regret it again, I will just fight him." In order to save the face of Duke Dai, I had no choice but to leave the Yulin Guards directly..."
"Then leave Yulinwei directly!" The man opposite seemed to be ordering a servant, and said coldly: "This is what dad meant. I guess you are not so ignorant, right? You should understand what to do! "
After saying that, he turned around and left.
"Leave the Habayashi Guards? Then I have a way out?"
"Will the Hou Mansion still give me resources?"
Bi Xin stood there blankly, his face suddenly flushed, and he clenched his fists, his nails cutting into his flesh. He waited for the man to go away, then walked towards his courtyard with his somewhat stiff legs.
Bi Xin's yard is located in a remote part of Kang Lebo Mansion. Walking along the way, you can hardly see anyone, and some of the trees that have long since died are not taken care of.
Obviously, even the gaps in the flower beds had been cleaned up in the place he just passed, but he lived in this area. At night, he could directly perform a show of unresolved love between humans and ghosts, and the ghostly atmosphere was permeated, which was very scary.
On the way back, Bi Xin managed to maintain his expression without showing any anger.
Although apart from him and the only maid who took care of him, there was only a woman who didn't like to talk, and it was very desolate. But who knew if someone would suddenly hide in the dark and observe his reaction?
His life in the uncle's house was already miserable enough. If someone caught him with something, he would be kicked out now without waiting for his eldest brother to attack him.
But is it really better to stay here than to be kicked out?
Thinking of his elder brother's attitude towards him just now, Bi Xin's fists clenched tighter and tighter.
Obviously he is also the legitimate son. Even if he is the step-brother, according to Dazheng and folk rules, he is still qualified to ascend the throne. However, because he is the legitimate second son, there is an eldest son above him, and he has no father's support, so he can only find another way out. , but the eldest brother treats him like a younger brother!
No, treat servants the same!
The eldest brother is probably more polite to his servants than to him.
Obviously he was also the legitimate son of the uncle's house, and even though he had endured this humiliation for several years, at this moment, Bi Xin still felt aggrieved and angry.
Depressed by what just happened, Bi Xin kept walking and returned to the small courtyard where he lived.
It is said to be a small courtyard, but it is indeed small. There are only three main rooms and a few side rooms.
He lived in three main rooms, the maid Yuzhu who served him lived in the east side room, and the old woman who was responsible for washing clothes and cooking lived in the side room.
Although it is quite spacious for three people to live like this, which of the legitimate sons of the uncle's house does not have several personal maids to serve him?
In addition to the eldest maid, there are usually younger maids and servants accompanying him. These are the basic configuration of the young master.
Like him, there are only two people, a young man and an old man, to serve him. There is not even a boy, and he is afraid that he will not be as good as a slightly richer boy from a poor family.
Bi Xin pushed the door open and entered the house. He saw his personal maid Yuzhu humming a tune and cleaning up the house. Seeing him come in, Yuzhu immediately stopped and called out: "Sir."
"Why are you so happy?"
She was depressed at first and didn't tell anyone else. She just wanted to come back and talk to Yuzhu. Then she saw Yuzhu humming a tune with a little joy. It was rare for her to be so happy, so Bi Xin swallowed his words.
We'll talk about the frustration in her heart later, don't ruin her good mood.
Yuzhu smiled and said: "Sir, I have good luck today. I went to the steward to ask for some needles and thread, and on the way back I picked up a piece of silver, which weighs five taels!"
"You say, slave, are you unhappy? Here you go, buy the charcoal you wanted to buy last time."
In her little hand, there was an extra fifty taels of silver. It was so heavy with silver light that she could hardly hold it in her hands.
Oh, it turns out I picked up a piece of silver.
For Yuzhu, this is indeed a good thing. After all, her monthly salary is only 800 Wen per month. When she goes to collect the money, the Hou Mansion often deducts her money.
Moreover, for Bi Xin, five taels of silver was not something he could throw away easily. It was considered a small fortune.
He can only receive twelve monthly allowances, and the remaining source of income is the salary he receives from the Habayashi Guards. Although it is not small, it is a bit tight to support three people, drink with others, and socialize a little.
At that moment, Bi Xin forced a smile and said, "This is indeed a good thing. Keep it. If you find it, it's yours. Master, do you still want to use your money?"
As he spoke, his eyes turned slightly red.
Other people's maids have personal servants. Yuzhu is not young anymore, but she is still a virgin. It's not that she doesn't want to, it's not that she doesn't like her, but she is afraid that her elder brother will play cat and mouse again, so she will take her away even if she is given to the servants. , just to humiliate yourself.
Yuzhu and herself depended on each other, how could she give her eldest brother an excuse?
Continuing to stay in the room, fearing that his inner anger would soon be revealed, Bi Xin forced a smile and said, "I'll go outside to get some wind."
As soon as I came out of the yard, I seemed to see a white shadow flash past from the corner of my eye.
what? cat?
Bi Xin glanced at him and said, "I am the legitimate second son of an uncle, and he has ended up living in a place like this, with wild cats as his companions."
Thinking that a wild cat had just run past, Bi Xin sighed and continued walking.
This time I went out and didn't meet the eldest son again, but I met some servants on the way. Some looked sympathetic and turned away, some showed indifference in their eyes, and some even took pleasure in others' misfortune. At first glance, they were the eldest son of the uncle's house who had an attack before. The matter has spread.
Bi Xin felt even more angry, but couldn't help it.
The moral integrity and filial piety overwhelmed him and made him breathless.
Dazheng's principles are not too rigid, and separation of families is allowed and encouraged, but this is a matter after the death of the father. The father is not dead, and there is no approval. He just suffered some cold violence, and broke out of the house without filial piety. In the officialdom How can I make ends meet?
Bi Xin took a deep breath. As a man who had been in Yulinwei for several years, it was normal for him to drink when he felt depressed.
After touching the money he had brought with him, Bi Xin went directly to a wine shop a little further away. The wine and food here were of high quality and low price. He often ate here, and even if he had enough food and drinks, it wouldn't cost much.
More importantly, not knowing your own identity.
