Fortunately, the bad situation that Qingyang was worried about did not happen. Before Jiang Huo could say goodbye and leave, Du Qiniang was ordered to bring several maids to attend to her daily life.
Qingyang knew about Du Qiniang's life experience and that she was a medical officer in Yingzhou. Because her father was kidnapped and surrendered to Liang Jun, he was executed after the Jingxiang War. She and her sister were demoted to Leying as slaves, and the rest of her family members were also
Demoted to a hard labor camp.
The Du sisters were given to Han Qian by King Tan Yang Yuanpu. Han Qian later took his brothers Du Yijun, Du Yiming and other relatives into his care, and they are currently one of the Han family members.
Du Qiniang was good at medicine and poison identification, and was assigned by Han Qian to the King of Tan Yang Yuanpu to be responsible for medical diet and other matters.
Although Du Qiniang was able to be sent here, it shows that Yang Yuanpu still has a certain degree of leadership and has not become a puppet with instructions due to the arrival of the Crown Princess and Zheng Chang, Han Daoming, Zheng Yu and others, but she cannot see Yang Yuanpu, Jiang
Huo was then summoned to report on the situation in Xuzhou, and Qingyang felt even worse.
She felt like a trapped animal that had thrown itself into a trap, unable to go anywhere or move anywhere. Her previous hope of sending someone to contact Shu as soon as she arrived in Yueyang also failed.
At the moment, she only has Du Qiniang who can help her. She ordered the other maids to leave and asked Du Qiniang: "Maybe you will send someone to Xuzhou to contact Han Qian?"
"This servant is with His Highness and is responsible for the meals of the inner palace. According to the rules, it is forbidden to have casual contact with people outside the inner palace." Du Qiniang said with a hint of sadness.
Qingyang saw the sorrow on Du Qiniang's eyebrows and thought that she was in charge of meals. As a female official in the inner palace, according to the rules, she was not allowed to communicate with outsiders casually. But before the Crown Princess came to Yueyang, who would be so strict?
The person who controls Han Qian?
Qingyang guessed that the Crown Princess knew that Du Qiniang was the person sent by Han Qian to King Tan. She should have been very angry with her in the past few days, and she should have been restrained. Her movements were no longer as free as before.
At this moment, Qingyang also realized more clearly that no matter how much she resented Han Qian for violently kidnapping her into Chu, now that she was in Prince Tan's Mansion, only Han Qian's people could be used by her.
Qingyang comforted Du Qiniang and said:
"You are the only one I can rely on to discuss matters. Han Qian can use you, which means you must be outstanding. You are also an official. You have been knowledgeable and knowledgeable about medicine since you were a child. There is no need to treat yourself as a slave in front of me in the future.
…”
Du Qiniang, Lin Haizheng and Feng Xuan were successively recommended by Han Qian to serve next to King Tan Yang Yuanpu after the vassal war. They had official vacancies and could not leave and return to Xuzhou at will.
They had just learned that Han Qian had returned to Xuzhou, but Xuzhou did not send anyone to contact them directly. It was not clear how Han Qian would react to the news that the concubine, Zheng Yu and others were already in Yueyang. At the moment, they could only
Be able to watch the changes quietly.
…………
…………
The Yueyang Town General's Mansion serves as the temporary palace of Tan King Yang Yuanpu. At this moment, the meeting hall is full of people and brightly lit.
Zheng Yu, Zheng Chang, Han Daoxun, Han Daochang, Shen Yang, Zheng Hui, Zhang Ping, Zhou Yuan, Guo Liang, Gao Chengyuan, Zheng Xuanyuan and others were all sitting under the Tan King Yang Yuanpu, sitting on the table.
"On February 4th, Han Qian escorted Princess Qingyang back to
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
When I arrived at Longya City, I saw the coffin of my father Han Daoxun. I was heartbroken and in a daze. I had no intention of paying attention to the changes in the current situation. On February 9, I chose a place to bury my father Han Daoxun. I built a hut next to the tomb in mourning and never buried it again.
Shan. On the 10th, Wei Chen saw that Han Daoxun's funeral was over, so he escorted Princess Qingyang down the mountain. He wanted to take a boat from Linjiang back to Yueyang, but he didn't want to meet Wang Jixiong on the way and went to Xuzhou to pay homage to Han Daoxun. Wei Chen then took it upon himself to advocate and negotiate with the Qing Dynasty.
Princess Yang stayed for two more days, thinking that after Wang Jixiong paid his respects, he would be invited to Yueyang as a guest. Unexpectedly, Wang Jixiong fell ill after paying his respects to Han Daoxun, and passed away in Xuzhou the day before yesterday..."
Jiang Huo knelt in front of the hall and reported what he had seen and heard during his trip to Xuzhou. When he saw a curtain hanging behind His Highness, and the figure of the Dowager Princess looming in the curtain, a shadow fell on his heart.
He knew how powerful this curtain was. This curtain meant that the concubine had the power to summon generals and issue decrees, and its effectiveness was not even that of His Highness.
To be honest, when Jiang Huo was in Xuzhou, he did not expect that Han Daoming, Zheng Chang, Zheng Yu and others would risk the blockade of Lou's fleet army to escort Mrs. Dowager Wang into Yueyang City.
Jiang Huo did not pay much attention to Zheng Chang and Han Daoming, but secretly looked at Zheng Yu, the governor of Huangzhou and the head of the Zheng family. He was less than sixty years old, with somewhat gray temples and long beard, and a thin and narrow face.
, looked a bit gloomy, but his triangular eyes were looking at the people in front of the hall with great concentration. It seemed that he had just arrived in Yueyang for only a few days, and wanted to seize every moment to imprint everyone in Yueyang into his mind.
Jiang Huo secretly thought that the reason why Zheng Yu rushed to Yueyang was that besides swearing allegiance to His Highness, he was probably the biggest supporter of the Dowager Princess, right?
Otherwise, Li Pu, the Marquis of Xinchang, stayed in Runzhou at this time, and Han Daoming and Zheng Chang, although they had the official titles of Shaoqing of Dali Temple and Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, fled to Yueyang as bereaved dogs, so they would not have much say.
Zheng Yu is different.
Zheng Yunai was the governor of Huangzhou and the head of the Zheng clan.
Zheng Hui, the commander of Zuo Longque Army, was Zheng Yu's nephew; Zheng Xingxuan, the commander of the tent house, was Zheng Yu's legitimate son.
During the war to reduce the feudal vassalage, hundreds of Zheng's descendants performed outstanding military exploits, and by this time they were already the backbone of the Longque Army.
Just five days ago, they learned that Han Qian had returned to Xuzhou, and they couldn't wait to restructure Hunan Xingtai.
In addition to the King of Tan Yang Yuanpu who continued to lead the Shangshu Ling, Shen Yang, and the Marquis of Xinchang Li Pu continued to serve as the left and right ministers, and six more departments were added: Xing Yushitai, Xing Privy Council and Xingtai.
On the one hand, Hunan Xingtai urgently needs to form a complete system similar to a small imperial court in order to better utilize the resources of the eight states of Hunan, and even legitimately send letters to the surrounding Huang, E, Ying, and other states to obey Hunan Xingtai's orders.
Otherwise, not to mention the peripheral states and counties, the adjustment and appointment of state and county officials in the eight states of Hunan are not carried out in a formal name. The most direct consequence is that the efficiency will become extremely low and even chaotic.
.
However, the main purpose of Zheng Yu, Zheng Chang, Han Daoming and others doing this is to facilitate Zheng Yu, Zheng Chang, Han Daoming and others to go to Yueyang and directly bypass Han Qian, Zheng Hui, Wang Lin and others who have meritorious service in Prince Tan's palace but are still relatively young.
of generals, directly

occupy these newly created high-level official positions.
Discussing origin and qualifications are still generally accepted rules in the world.
Needless to say, Zheng Yu and Zheng Chang, Han Daoming, as a person who had served as the governor of Chizhou and the minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, had two concubines and a son-in-law who served as county magistrate, county lieutenant and other low-level officials in the eight states of Hunan. This time he brought
Two to three hundred nephews and family soldiers escorted the concubine to Yueyang, and supported King Tan. Not to mention the official positions of left and right prime minister or privy envoy, wouldn't it be justifiable for him to serve as the chief official of Xingtai?
Who can say no?
In addition to Zheng Yu serving as the secret envoy of the Xingtai Council, Zheng Chang served as the Censor Zhongcheng and was in charge of the Censorship Office. Han Daochang also served as the doctor of the Xingtai Industry Department under Zhou Yuan, the Minister of Industry and Commerce of Xingtai, because of his role in protecting the concubine.
It is clear that only civil and military generals and ministers above the level of Xingtai Bucheng and Deputy Capital Commander are qualified to participate in the discussions of Xingshangshutai.
"Han Qian worked hard to welcome Princess Qingyang back from Shu. However, his father was brutally tortured and died tragically. It is human nature for him to be grief-stricken. Your Highness should allow him to stay in mourning and observe filial piety. After all, since the founding of the late emperor, our country, Chu, has
The country is also founded on filial piety, and the filial piety system cannot be violated lightly." Seeing Han Daoming and Han Daochang sitting under His Highness and unable to speak much, Zheng Chang spoke for them. This was also his duty as the newly appointed Yushi Zhongcheng.
Although Zheng Chang did not want to be an enemy of Han Qian from the bottom of his heart, and even had a good relationship with Jinling for a period of time, but when Jinling changed dramatically, he had to cooperate with Wang Wenqian and give up Han Daoxun.
Zheng Chang didn't have so many worries at first, but when Han Daoxun died so tragically in the end, he had to seriously consider whether Han Qian was an open-minded person.
Zheng Chang was not sure whether Han Qian expected that they had arrived in Yueyang, so he decided to stay in Xuzhou. But considering the current situation, Han Qian staying in Xuzhou to mourn may be a situation that everyone can accept.
?
Han Daoming and Han Daochang sat behind the long desk, silent, staring at the tea cup in front of them, as if what Zheng Chang said was something that had nothing to do with them.
Jiang Huo knelt in front of the hall. Seeing His Highness's face gloomy, he secretly felt that Zheng Chang had taken off his filial piety and the concubine was sitting behind the curtain. His Highness couldn't say anything, right?
Jiang Huo then looked at Zheng Hui, Gao Chengyuan, and Guo Liang who were sitting in front of him. He saw that they hesitated for a while, but none of them said a word. He thought that Li Zhigao, Zhou Pan and others were closer to Han Qian, but they were in Shao.
Zhou Zhou, thinking that if Gao Chengyuan, Guo Liang, and Zheng Hui didn't come forward to speak, would it be possible for Han Qian to stay in Longya Mountain to observe mourning for three years?
Jiang Huo could only place his last hope on Shen Yang.
However, Shen Yang didn't seem to notice Jiang Huo's anxious look. He coughed twice and said to Yang Yuanpu:
"Han Qian insisted on staying in Xuzhou to pay filial piety for his father. Even if His Highness took advantage of his love, he would only force him to do so. He was afraid that he would not have the heart to assist His Highness in his plans. Your Highness should obey his pursuit of filial piety. Apart from this matter,
There is one important thing in the trip, and we cannot delay the decision..."
Seeing what Shen Yang said, Jiang Huo could only sigh in his heart, but he didn't know what happened to Shen Yang and he urgently needed to make a decision now?
