Unparalleled Concubine

Naturally, it is impossible to have a clear purpose for this kind of thing. The reason why Li Xin asked this question was to test Xiao Zheng.

Xiao Zheng shook his head and said, "It's just a few words."

"Your Majesty said that His Royal Highness King Qin can enter the capital, but after entering the capital, one cannot be taken over by the San Judiciary, and two can't be taken over by the Zongfu. It can only be left in the hands of Lord Hou."

The Sanfa Division is the power of the civil servants of the imperial court, and the Zongfu is the power of the Ji family's clan. Once these people take over, even the emperor will not be able to deal with Ji Ku arbitrarily, so the meaning in the words of the emperor Taikang is obvious. Li Xin wants to bring Ji Ku can go to Beijing, but he must withstand the pressure from these two aspects.

Moreover, the Son of Heaven cannot have a decree to help Li Xin, which means that Li Xin can only resist these pressures by himself.

There is no element of suppression in it, after all, according to the procedures, as long as Ji Ku enters the capital, either the Sanfa Division takes over or the Zongfu takes over, and the emperor is not very good at interfering with his face.

Lord Jing'an lowered his head and thought for a while, then he said with a smile: "This is no problem, please tell Your Majesty, Mr. Xiao, and say that Li Xin will give His Majesty a satisfactory result."

Xiao Zheng nodded and bowed deeply.

"In this way, the servant can rest assured."

He pondered for a while, then continued: "What's more, the leader of the Pingnan army's bandit, His Majesty wants Lord Hou to come up with a charter. Pingnan Marquis Li Shen died two years ago, and the leader of the Pingnan army's bandit is impossible. It's Li Shen."

Li Xin frowned and said, "I'll handle it?"

Xiao Zheng shook his head hastily: "Your Majesty just let Lord Hou make up his mind, not all on Lord Hou's head."

Li Xin was silent for a while, nodded and said: "I understand, when I return to the capital, I will personally enter the palace to face the saint."

Xiao Zhengchang breathed a sigh of relief, and bowed deeply to Li Xin.

"The slaves retire."

……

After Xiao Zheng walked for a while, little Zhao Fang came back to Li Xin's side. He looked up at his teacher's face, and asked cautiously, "Teacher, is there any difficulty?"

Li Xin glanced at the little guy angrily.

"Stop yelling like that after you enter the capital. Keep a low profile. I'll let you live in my house until you're here. If you call it indiscriminately and let others hear it, it will only bring trouble to yourself."

Xiao Zhao shrank his head and asked in a low voice: "The disciple shouted when there was no one around?"

"what ever."

Li Xin didn't have the mood to talk to this little brat anymore, he glanced at the capital from a distance, thinking about how to deal with this situation next.

Another hour later, when it was time for Shen Shi, the weather finally cooled down. The row of more than a dozen carriages started slowly, heading towards the capital city not far away.

This herbal tea shop is only thirty or forty miles away from the capital city. In the evening, when it was getting dark, the huge city wall of the capital city was already in sight.

Lord Jing'an did not sit in the carriage, but sat in front of the carriage, sitting side by side with Habayashi Wei who was driving the carriage.

The convoy stopped at the gate of the capital city.

It was sunset now, and the city gate should have been closed according to the rules, but at this moment, the city gate was wide open. Dozens of officials in official uniforms, surrounded by a five or six-year-old boy, were preparing to welcome Li Xinjin. city.

Lord Jing'an jumped off the carriage, and looked up at the familiar yet unfamiliar city in front of him.

He muttered to himself.

"The capital."

"I am back."

Chapter 610 Entering the Palace to Face the Holy Spirit

According to Li Xin's contribution this time, it is not too much for the emperor to take hundreds of officials out of the city ten miles to greet them, but they came back at night, and most of the officials had already left work, so not many people came here to "work overtime".

Three of the five prime ministers from the three provinces came, among them Zhang Qu Zhang Haoran who was Zuo Pushe was impressively listed.

Although the six ministers were not all in place, at least a servant was sent over.

This battle is already very large.

Especially after Lord Jing'an got off the carriage, he saw Zaifu Zhang Qu, holding a five or six-year-old boy by his side. This boy was none other than Ji Yan, the heir apparent of Prince Wei's residence, and now His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!

Originally, Li Xin was still a little careless, but after seeing this little doll, he became serious, turned his head and said to Zhao Fang, "Don't get off the carriage, unless I call you, anyone who asks you to get off Don't bother with him."

Although Zhao Fang came from a family, but after all, he was young and had never seen the big world, so he immediately bowed his head and said, "Okay..."

Although it was already dark at this time, the west gate of the capital was brightly lit, and the lights here were brightly illuminated.

Li Xin tidied up his clothes, walked straight to Zhang Qu, and was about to kneel in front of the five or six-year-old boy.

"My subject Li Xin, I have met His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

Li Xin just made a movement, Zhang Qu on the side immediately stretched out his hand to support him, this Lord Haoran shook his head, hehe said with a smile: "Jing'an Houye, today we are all here to welcome you at the order of His Majesty, so there is no need It’s such a great gift.”

As he said that, Zhang Qu, who was all white beard and hair, turned his head to look at the little boy who was holding him in his hand, and said with a smile, "At first, His Majesty was going to come to greet Lord Hou in person, but it was getting dark, and it was not convenient for His Majesty to leave the palace, so I asked His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will take his place and come to welcome Lord Li Hou."

Li Xin also cupped his fists at Zhang Qu, and said with a wry smile: "Mr. Haoran, this time the Western Expedition, the lower officials didn't have much credit for it. Besides, the lower officials are only lieutenants. Even if they did, they were all due to Ye Shaobao. The court is so big. I came to greet you in battle, and I am down from office."

"Master Li is too self-effacing."

Mr. Haoran laughed loudly and said: "All the military newspapers in the Southwest have been sent back to the capital. His Majesty specially asked us courtiers to read them many times. Xi, General Ye certainly has the merits of coordinating the overall situation, but in terms of merit, Lord Li is well-deserved No.1."

"This is something that has been recognized by the entire court, so there is no need for Marquis Li to say more."

Li Xin's face darkened.

This time when he returned to Beijing, he originally wanted to keep a low profile, try to shirk the credit on the collective, or shirk it on the Ye family, so as to make a fortune in silence, but he didn't expect that before he returned to Beijing, the Taikang Emperor Help him spread the word.

Not only did it publicize, but it also determined the nature of this Western Expedition.

He, Li Xin, is the number one hero.

On the surface, this seems to be the most honorable favor, but in fact it is not a good thing. If the relationship between Li Xin and the Ye family is a little bit worse, Ye Ming, the general, will inevitably have a rift with him.

But fortunately, before returning to Beijing, Li Xin and Ye Ming had gone through the situation before and after this Western Expedition in detail. Because of his affection, he shouldn't have any resentment towards Li Xin.

While Lord Jing'an was thinking about this matter, His Royal Highness, led by Zhang Qu, ran up to Li Xin, pulled Li Xin's sleeve, and said crisply: "Uncle Li..."

He knew Li Xin.

When Li Xin was working in the Habayashi Guard, he often went in and out of Wei Wangfu. At that time, he was regarded as half of the "staff" of Wei Wangfu, and sometimes he would drink there until midnight. His Highness Shizi led him out and said that he would recognize Li Xin as his master.

But at that time Li Xin declined.

At that time, His Royal Highness Ji Yan was only three or four years old. Now that two or three years have passed, he should be six years old.

Li Xin squatted down, stretched out his hand to grab His Royal Highness's sleeve, and said with a smile: "Your Highness, what are your orders?"
