From Yuan Lexhang's perspective, we can clearly see that Li Xingchen's hand on his knee has been clenched, relaxed, and clenched again and again.
Regarding the Yuan family, Li Xingchen clearly had no intention of letting it go.
It's just that now Li Xingchen needs the Yuan family's help, so he doesn't mind giving some small favors to the Yuan family. After staying with Li Xingchen for a day, Yuan Lexhang has a preliminary understanding of the official system of the Han Dynasty.
This general office is not an idle position. It even often goes to the heart of the enemy to serve as an envoy to deal with the enemy. This does not necessarily mean that Li Xingchen trusts Yuan Sheng, but it is another layer of loyalty to Yuan Sheng.
test.
I'm afraid it's not that easy for the Yuan family to gain Li Xinchen's trust.
Yuan Lexhang looked at his father who was leaving with a smile on his face, and could only sigh softly.
I hope that everything I have done can make His Majesty at least have a favorable impression of the Yuan family.
"Your father is very nervous." Li Xingchen said with a smile.
"Ah?" Yuan Lexhang trembled.
"You are more nervous than him." Li Xingchen frowned, "The people around me are always startled. This is not good."
Yuan Lexhang hurriedly saluted: "I made a mistake, your Majesty, please forgive me."
Li Xingchen waved his hand: "Okay, okay, it's not a big deal, there is no need to go up and down the line. By the way, do you think some of your brothers will submit to the big man?"
Yuan Leshang did not expect that Li Xingchen would directly ask this question. After being silent for a long time, he said cautiously: "Returning to Your Majesty, based on my understanding of the brothers, they have always been stubborn characters. I'm afraid."
"What's more important, interests or loyalty," Li Xingchen laughed, "Let's go out for a walk with me."
"Ah, okay," Yuan Lexhang stood up hurriedly. She was actually still thinking about what Li Xingchen wanted to express just now, "Where do you want to go, Your Majesty?"
"Let's go to the Ministry of Revenue and have a look. I would rather tell them the good news that the battle in the north is about to end." Li Xingchen stood up straight away. Of course, more importantly, he wanted to know how much money and food the big man still had in Guanzhong.
As an emperor, Li Xinchen believed in his officials, and he also knew that he had to give enough trust to the officials, especially these young officials who had just been promoted. They were busy with official duties and had little to do, but Li Xinchen didn't mind either.
Walk more and see more.
While you are young, it is best to see with your own eyes how much power you have in your hands.
How wonderful it would be if I could stay ten or twenty years younger.
Ten years ago, I followed my brother to fight in the north and south, how high-spirited I was.
Yu Wenxian leaned on the railing and looked at the prosperous scene of Yecheng, but he felt a sense of early prosperity.
As a tycoon, a de facto ruler of places like Hebei and Shandong, he should actually be proud of having achieved such an achievement at such a young age. After all, being able to control such a large area at such a young age is historically unprecedented.
There are also very few.
But compared with Li Xinchen, he naturally pales in comparison.
Both Yang Jian and himself are old after all, they are all from the previous generation.
After all, I still can’t grasp the beating pulse of this era.
"Your Highness, the letter from Prince Chen is urgent." The attendant came over anxiously.
Yu Wenxian frowned. Yu Wenchun usually followed his lead and kept the Jinyang area in good order, so he was always the one who gave orders to Yu Wenchun. Yu Wenchun rarely had such an eight-hundred-mile rush.
Urgent matter.
"There is a fire in a granary in the south of Jinyang City?" Yu Wenxian just glanced at it, his expression changed, and he was somewhat surprised.
It is not uncommon for granaries to catch fire. The key is at critical moments like this.
As long as they are high-ranking people in the King of Qi, they all know that Yu Wenxian plans to send troops to support Yang Jian, and the source of the troops is naturally Jinyang. Now the granary in Jinyang accidentally caught fire, Yu Wenxian does not think this is a big deal
Ordinary things.
At least this isn't a coincidence.
Obviously Yu Wenchun should have similar worries, so he did not hesitate to travel eight hundred miles to rush, just to tell Yu Wenxian that there were people outside Jinyang City who were trying to cause trouble again. Once the army moved, they might come again.
What kind of commotion was caused?
Now Yu Wenxian can secure his position in the north, relying on the three places of Yecheng, Jinyang and Luoyang to form a stable triangle. If there is a problem on any side, it will affect Yu Wenxian's rule.
Therefore, Yu Wenchun's meaning is also very simple. He just wants to ask himself whether he should stay in Jinyang to take charge of the overall situation or go directly to reinforce Yang Jian.
"Your Highness, Pei Ju and Cui Shiji would like to see you." The attendant walked over quickly.
"It's just the right time." Yu Wenxian couldn't help but snorted coldly, looked at Yu Wenchun's memorial in his hand, and could only sigh.
Pei Ju is the representative of the Wenxi Pei family, and Cui Shiji is the representative of the Qinghe Cui family. Among the Shandong aristocratic families, the Wenxi Pei family and the Qinghe Cui family are undoubtedly the two leaders, and what these aristocratic families are planning now, Yuwen Xianduo
He could more or less figure it out. After all, this was not the first time someone told him that these aristocratic families had a lot of contacts with Xu Shanxin, the Han envoy.
It is reasonable for people's minds to change when the wind and rain are swaying.
However, considering the huge power behind these two people, Yu Wenxian could not clearly express his dissatisfaction, and even had to smile. After all, he now has to rely on the help of these big families to maintain his local foundation.
With Yu Wenxian's permission, Pei Ju and Cui Shiji arrived very quickly.
Both of them are middle-aged people in their thirties, but they are not ordinary people who can take charge of the affairs of the entire family at this age. You must know that big families such as the Pei family and the Cui family have many children, and
There are many affairs, and every step taken may involve the efforts of more than ten generations of ancestors. Therefore, unless one has extraordinary ability, it is impossible to fully represent the entire family.
It was precisely because of Yang Su's outstanding talents that he stepped forward to take charge of the Hongnong Yang family affairs at the age of more than 20 years old.
Pei Ju raised his head and looked at Yu Wenxian walking over, full of confidence. He was not a newbie in the officialdom. He had already been an official when he was crowned, and was highly appreciated by Yuwen Yong, the previous emperor of the Northern Zhou Dynasty. However, he later returned home because of his filial piety, and Yuwen
After Xianqian came to Hebei, Pei Ju once again entered officialdom.
The Wenxi Pei family has reached its peak step by step in this era, not to mention that Pei Ji, Pei Yi and even Pei Zilie in the south can be traced back to the Wenxi Pei family. In the north alone, the entire family itself is divided into the East Wing and the East Wing.
The West Wing played an irreplaceable role in the Northern Qi Dynasty and the Northern Zhou Dynasty respectively. Now the East Wing and the West Wing are combined into one, with unprecedented power, making it the top of the Shandong aristocratic families.
