Feng Jing knew what they were thinking as soon as she heard this. She couldn't wait to know who their father was. If they knew that Pei Lin was their father, would they still be so happy?
Feng Jing had a slight headache.
She was about to explain to the four little guys when footsteps sounded behind her, and Pei Shu's gentle voice rang out: "This is the border of Youzhou, and we haven't reached Cangcheng, the capital of Youzhou yet."
The four little ones just blinked, thinking that they had arrived in Youzhou, but not yet.
Feng Jing looked at Pei Shu coming over and greeted with a smile: "Are you going back?"
She did not forget that there was Prince Qing's Mansion behind Pei Shu. In Prince Qing's Mansion, Princess Qing had offended His Majesty, so Pei Shu came to her to ask for the drug to fake death. At this time, it was almost time for Princess Qing to take the drug to fake death.
After hearing what Feng Jing said, Pei Shu nodded: "Yes, I'm going back to Beijing."
After Pei Shu finished speaking, he looked deeply at Feng Jing, wanting to tell her that he liked her.
"Fengjing, can I have a few words with you alone?"
As soon as Pei Shu finished speaking, Pei Lin came over with several of his men. As soon as he came over, he said: "Pei Shu, it's time for you to take people back to the capital. If the old emperor finds out that you are not in Prince Qing's Mansion, Prince Qing's Mansion will definitely
There's trouble."
Pei Shu turned around and looked at Pei Lin, then turned back to Feng Jing and said, "I have something to tell you."
Fengjing didn't know why, so she subconsciously walked over and asked, "What are you talking about?"
Later, Pei Lin walked to Feng Jing's side in a few strides, stretched out his hand to hold her, looked at Pei Shu opposite and warned: "Pei Shu, it's time for you to return to the capital."
Pei Lin guessed that Pei Shu wanted to express his feelings to Feng Jing, but he didn't want him to say it.
Compared to him, Feng Jing was obviously more fond of Pei Shu, which made him feel unhappy and uneasy, as if he would lose Feng Jing if Pei Shu opened his mouth.
Pei Shu glared at Pei Lin fiercely and said solemnly: "No matter how anxious you are, you still have time to say a few words."
Pei Lin immediately responded: "Tell me?"
He didn't believe that Pei Shu could say that he liked Feng Jing in public.
Pei Shu froze after hearing Pei Lin's words. He really couldn't say that he liked Feng Jing in front of everyone.
Feng Jing looked at Pei Lin, then at Pei Shu, and finally realized that what Pei Shu wanted to tell her was probably because he liked her.
Feng Jing felt a little confused. At the moment, she was worried about her son's identity and didn't want to think about her own feelings.
Feng Jing thought about pretending not to know Pei Shu's thoughts, looked at Pei Shu and said: "Pei Shu, I wish you a safe journey."
After speaking, Feng Jing shook off Pei Lin and grabbed her hand, turned around and walked to the children: "Let's go, mother will take you for a walk."
Later, Pei Shu felt unspeakable disappointment and gave Pei Lin a cold look: "You think you can keep her like this, haha."
Pei Lin can't do it except for one thing. Can he only marry Feng Jing for the rest of his life?
He knew Feng Jing's intentions. She would not share the same husband with another woman. He could do this, but could Pei Lin do it?
If he can't do it, there's no way he can keep Feng Jing.
Pei Shu thought about it and sneered: "Now that King Jin has reached a safe place, it's time for me to return to the capital."
After he finished speaking, he waved his hand and led the people away.
Pei Lin breathed a sigh of relief when he saw him taking the people away.
Pei Lin stood beside Dong Li and waited for his subordinates to sigh silently. Prince Qing didn't like anyone, but he liked their princess. Is the princess so good? One or two people rushed to marry her, but she got pregnant with someone else before they were married.
Four children.
Some of my subordinates couldn't understand it.
Pei Lin ignored the men beside him, turned around and strode to follow Feng Jing, mother and son.
"Fengjing, let me tell you about the situation in Youzhou?"
Feng Jing stopped and looked at Pei Lin, who was walking over: "Okay, Your Majesty, please tell me."
She really needs to understand the situation in Youzhou, and she will definitely have to deal with these people later.
Pei Lin looked at Feng Jing carefully and saw that she looked as usual and was not disappointed because of Pei Shu's departure. Pei Lin breathed a sigh of relief and talked to Feng Jing about the situation in Youzhou.
"Youzhou has a total of five cities, six counties and thirty-eight counties. There are officials such as the governor, governor, and governor. The governor is responsible for handling local affairs in Youzhou, and the governor is responsible for supervising Youzhou officials. At first, Dayan did not have the official position of governor. It was the imperial grandfather.
I feel that if each state only has one chief official, the state pastor, it will be easy for the state pastor to become the king of each place."
"This is not conducive to the development of the country, so he added the official position of governor just to supervise local officials."
After listening to Pei Lin's words, Feng Jing felt that even so, there were still disadvantages.
"What if the state pastor and the governor join forces, wouldn't they be able to become the king of each place? You should set up a three-year rotation, so that they cannot become the king of each place."
Pei Lin said with a smile: "Earlier, the emperor's grandfather did adopt this method, changing appointments every three years. In the end, it was found that such transfers not only consumed energy, but also brought stagnation in civil and political affairs in various places. With the change of appointment every three years, the governor and governor of the state were just
I was familiar with the local situation, but before I could achieve results, I moved to another place, which was not conducive to the civil affairs of various places. In the end, this appointment system was abolished and changed to sending two inspection officials to various places every three years to inspect the situation."
Feng Jing thought for a while and thought that this was indeed the case. Each state had a very large area, and it would take a long time for the state herdsmen and governors to get familiar with the local conditions. She just wanted to do something practical, but when the three-year period expired, another
It is very easy to move the place, which will easily lead to the inaction of the state pastors and governors in various places.
Feng Jing nodded slightly, and Pei Lin said with a smile: "Actually, Zhou Mu does not have as much power as imagined. He is only responsible for handling the affairs of each city and county and managing the officials of each county. What makes him powerful is
, that is, he is an official sent by the imperial court and can be regarded as a trusted official of the emperor."
As soon as Pei Lin said this, Feng Jing understood that the governor and governor of Youzhou were the emperor's people, so they had to be careful.
Pei Lin saw that she understood, and continued: "Although Youzhou is poor, there are still many aristocratic families living here. The aristocratic families have connections, wealth, and tact. These people are very difficult to deal with, but I used to be afraid of them.
The emperor has not taken any action against these aristocratic families. These aristocratic families are also tactful and send me a sum of military expenses every year, so I don’t bother to pay attention to them."
"But from now on, I will control the territory of Youzhou. If these aristocratic families are ignorant, I don't mind touching them and letting them know who owns Youzhou."
At the end of Pei Lin's words, her eyes were unspeakably fierce. Feng Jing glanced at him lightly and suggested: "Your Majesty, you can win over these aristocratic families first. If you can use them for yourself, keep them. If you can't use them for yourself, you can keep them."
, it’s not too late to find a way to deal with them.”
Pei Lin nodded in agreement: "I think so too."
Feng Jing followed up and said: "The best way to win over aristocratic families is to marry or accept women from their families as concubines or concubines."
When Pei Lin heard Feng Jing's words, he immediately raised his eyebrows and looked at Feng Jing.
