"Did you expect that things would turn out like this?" Jin Run'er held Zhou Xingyun's arm and asked...
When Jin Run'er was at Jianshu Villa, she often received letters from her mother.
Perhaps someone from the Jin family asked her mother to write more letters to her to reflect the Jin family's situation in the capital. Therefore, Jin Run'er received a handwritten letter from her mother every ten days and a half.
The letter occasionally mentioned that the Jin family's situation in the capital was very embarrassing because they were relatives of the guilty ministers and had no one in the court, so they were looked down upon everywhere.
Although everyone did not take excessive revenge on the Jin family for Zhou Xingyun's sake, they were often ridiculed and ridiculed by outsiders while living in the capital.
Jin Run'er knew that her mother would not report worries to her for no reason. The letter mentioned the Jin family's situation, and it was probably the Jin family's people who were being blamed. She begged her mother to write to her, hoping that she could please Zhou Xingyun so that Zhou Xingyun could replace her.
The Jin family supports me.
For Jin Run'er, as long as her mother lived well, it didn't matter what the Jin family's situation was, so she did not explain the Jin family's situation to Zhou Xingyun.
However, Zhou Xingyun seemed to have guessed the situation of the Jin family and came back with her specially today. As a result, Wang Yushi and other high-ranking officials in the capital rushed to visit the Jin family. In this way, the Jin family's predicament in the capital would be solved.
When officials in the capital learned that Jin Run'er was favored by Zhou Xingyun, they naturally did not dare to make irresponsible remarks about the Jin family.
"I didn't expect them to be so impatient." Zhou Xingyun shrugged noncommittally, and then went to entertain the officials in the Jin family's living room.
He would come early or late. Before Zhou Xingyun returned to the capital, he had expected that the officials in the capital would be eager to come and pay him respects.
Not to mention that Zhou Xingyun Gui was the consort of Princess Yong Ming, and helped the current emperor win the throne and defeat the sixteenth son of the emperor who was in the limelight last year. A month ago, Zhou Xingyun repeatedly assisted the royal family, quelled the chaos in the north, and cured the symptoms of the local area.
Uproot the evil legacy left by the northern princes.
The emperor's sixteenth son failed to seize the throne, and the northern princes were in trouble. However, they had controlled the northern towns for many years, leaving behind hidden dangers that made the court officials unable to do anything.
As the saying goes, if you cut the grass without eradicating the root, it will grow again with the spring breeze. How to restore the hearts and minds of the people in the north is the top priority for the prince after he succeeds to the throne and becomes emperor. Otherwise, even if the sixteenth son of the emperor and the northern princes are gone,
Ambitious guys can also manipulate and manipulate public opinion to make noise, and pop up one after another.
Unfortunately, the ministers in the court were at a loss as to how to govern the northern towns and restore the hearts and minds of the people in the north. Everyone argued in court for more than half a year, but no one could think of a feasible solution.
Who knows, God is not as good as man, what tax exemption, food delivery, amnesty and other plans were debated several times in the court, but no proper conclusion could be reached, the legendary figure who had been silent for a long time once again broke into the palace of the civil and military officials of the DPRK and China.
Vision.
Han Feng went to the northern border to crusade Qing Tianxiong, and he was incognito. The civil and military officials in the court almost didn't know that he left the capital secretly.
It was not until the early morning meeting a while ago that Taifu Xu mentioned that the situation in the north was urgent and hoped that the emperor could make a decision as soon as possible and send people to the northern towns to stabilize people's hearts... The emperor made the truth known to the world.
It turned out that while everyone was arguing endlessly about how to govern the northern territory and how to restore the hearts and minds of the people in the northern territory, the second "Sixteenth Son of the Emperor" had appeared. The northern state pastor Qing Tianxiong united with the cult to bring harm to the northern residents.
He also openly kidnapped Princess Yongming...
However, Qing Tianxiong obviously provoked a big shot that he couldn't afford to offend, and the result was obvious to all.
The royal family not only dealt with Qingtian Xiong who tried to cede territory and become king, but also restored the
It won the hearts of the people in the northern border.
Zhou Xingyun solved the important national affairs that had been debated in the court for more than half a year to no avail, with such efficiency that the officials in the court were ashamed of themselves.
Are you still arguing so hard that you are blushing? Are you discussing how to deal with the problem? I have solved the problem. You are talking about chicken in the court. Where is the chicken?
No wonder everyone has heard widespread rumors that the current emperor is the leader of the alliance.
I dare say that while everyone was living in a wealthy palace in the capital, the emperor joined forces with Zhou Shaofu to fight outside. With lightning speed, they killed Qingtian Xiong, who had brought trouble to the northern border, from his horse.
When the officials in the DPRK and the Central Government learned the news, they all looked at the current emperor with admiration. After all, although Han Feng was very diligent after taking the throne and worked hard every day, the result of his busy work was that he was inactive and hesitant on many important matters.
Unable to make a decisive judgment.
The civil and military officials of the DPRK and China are still very worried, fearing that in this year's year-end summary, there will be no great achievements to praise the new emperor. This is the first anniversary of Han Feng's accession to the throne, so the annual summary must be decent and honorable.
Now that Han Feng has used thunderous means to control the northern capital, the royal family has regained the trust of the people in the north, and all the officials in the court no longer have to worry about having nothing to talk about to praise the emperor.
Of course, Zhou Xingyun's contribution is indispensable for all this. The bureaucrats who came to visit Jin's house unanimously believed that Zhou Xingyun was ordered to return to Beijing this time, and nine times out of ten, he was here to receive a reward...
Zhou Xingyun regarded the Jin family as his own home and received the visiting officials politely. He got a general understanding of the current situation in the DPRK from Wang Yushi and others.
Almost a year has passed since he left the capital at the beginning of the year, and the situation between North Korea and China has undergone earth-shaking changes.
First of all, there has been a major change of officials in the court. More than 50% of the civil servants have had their positions changed. Among the old people who are meeting in the morning today, only Xu Taifu and a few of them can be regarded as veterans of the previous court. And... according to gossip, Xu Taifu
I have thought of resigning and going into seclusion.
In addition, more than 80% of the military attachés have either removed their armor and returned to their fields, or have been transferred and resigned.
After all, when the Empress Dowager was in charge of politics behind the curtain, the military attachés in the court were either from the Empress Dowager or from the Sixteenth Son of the Emperor. There were only a handful of generals who followed Han Feng.
After Han Feng succeeded to the throne, the Empress Dowager seemed to intend to have her military attachés step down so that new generals could take over, allowing Han Feng to train his own team. Needless to say, those generals who had followed the Emperor's Sixteenth Son...
Secondly, after the Empress Dowager retired, many princes and princes in the south seemed to feel that the royal family was not qualified enough and were quite dissatisfied with his policies. In other words... they liked to dictate the royal family's plan to govern the country.
To put it simply, when Han Feng implemented policies and promulgated projects, the princes and princes in the south would always stand up and say that this would not work or that would not work, and suggest Han Feng how to do it, so that every time Han Feng performed something, he had to do it.
Try your best to cater to them.
The princes and princes of the south blocked the army of the princes from the north when the Sixteenth Emperor's son rebelled. They all believed that they were the ones who quelled the rebellion of the Sixteenth Emperor's son and helped Han Feng ascend the throne.
Wang Yushi boldly told Zhou Xingyun that the princes and princes in the south were very prejudiced against the emperor's conferment of Jianshu Villa and other sects as famous sects to protect the country. They felt that the emperor favored one over the other and valued Zhou Xingyun too much.
A military general in the southern capital once said angrily that when the emperor's sixteen sons united with the northern princes to rebel, it was their southern soldiers who were the main force to contain the northern princes. However, the emperor and the empress dowager actually regarded Zhou Shaofu as the biggest contributor. This
It’s obviously a villain’s success!
Although Zhou Shaofu was indispensable, the first contribution to quelling the rebellion of the sixteenth son of the emperor should go to the southern general.
All owned by scholars.
However, the soldiers in the south saw that Zhou Xingyun had given up on the good news and took the initiative to resign and go into seclusion. Otherwise, they would definitely jointly report to the emperor that Zhou Xingyun's merits were not worthy of reward, and the late emperor should not be punished.
He was awarded a sword and faced Zhou Xingyun in court.
After Zhou Xingyun listened to Wang Yushi's words, he couldn't help but admire his own foresight at the time. He was too bright and became the target of public criticism. He retired and returned home early to save a lot of unnecessary trouble.
Zhou Xingyun entertained Wang Yushi and others at Jin's house, and enjoyed lunch cooked by Jin Run'er. He waited until the rain passed in the afternoon and the sky cleared before heading back home.
However, before Zhou Xingyun returned to Fengyu Mansion, he did not forget to remind Wang Yushi and others that he was not an official in the court now, and everyone should not bother him if anything happened. He had just returned to the capital and just wanted to have a good rest. All high-ranking officials should do whatever they want.
.
Zhou Xingyun and Jin Run'er returned home and saw Shen Xin cleaning the wing, Sister Nangong sitting on the window sill reading a book, Wei Suyao practicing swordplay in the courtyard, and everyone else seemed to have gone out.
"Where have they gone?" Zhou Xingyun casually walked up to the blonde girl and asked, wondering what Xunxuan and others were doing out there.
"Who are they referring to?" Wei Suyao stopped and retracted the scabbard of his sword.
"Who else? Apart from you, are there any other outsiders in my mansion?"
"There are so many people, what do you want me to say?" Wei Suyao sighed helplessly.
Yu Wushuang wanted to wait for Zhou Xingyun to come back and cook for her, but Zhou Xingyun didn't come back for lunch. With no choice, she, Zhou Shuo, and Xiao Le had no choice but to go to Yunxia Inn and ask Wu Jiwen for barbecue burritos.
.
When Ning Xiangyi saw that the rain had stopped, she suggested that she go shopping in the capital and buy some daily necessities. So she, Ayesha, Fang Shushu, and Ada went shopping in the trading district.
As for Rao Yue, Ke Fu, Mu Ya, Zhou Xingyun and Jin Run'er disappeared as soon as they left Fengyu Mansion.
Qin Shou and Li Xiaofan had a few animals. Wei Su watched them sneaking away from the back door from a distance, neither wanting to ask them where they were going, nor wanting to know where they were going...
"Where is Xunxuan?" Zhou Xingyun remembered that when Han Qiumiao and Han Shuang returned to the palace, the beautiful lady was not with them.
"She wanted to go alone and relax."
"Alone!" Zhou Xingyun was a little worried. Xunxuan was a beauty who brought disaster to the country and the people. If she went out to relax alone, she would be doomed if she met a gangster. Although sister Xunxuan knew a little martial arts, her skills and skills would not be the same when she met a real master.
It doesn't work.
"Impermanent Flower followed her."
"That's okay." Zhou Xingyun can rest assured when he learns that Miss Wuchanghua is secretly protecting Xunxuan. But why does beauty Xunxuan want to relax alone?
"Pay homage to my mother." Wei Su looked at Zhou Xingyun's doubts from a distance and couldn't help but tell him succinctly.
Xunxuan's mother was buried in the stone temple in the south of the capital. Now that Qingtian Xiong and the sixteenth son of the emperor have been executed, when she returned to the capital, it was time to go to her mother's mausoleum to pay homage.
"She should call me." Zhou Xingyun curled his lips and secretly said that Sister Xunxuan was too outspoken.
"Xiao Xuan doesn't want you to see her cry, so that's why she doesn't take you with her." Jin Run'er said slowly. She had hardly seen Xun Xuan cry during her time in the First Grade Academy.
"I just hope to see Xunxuan cry, so I want to accompany her." Zhou Xingyun replied regretfully. The look of the beautiful lady crying must be so poignant and heartbreaking. It's a pity... He looked at it
