It seems that Mei Xichen still has some tricks. Although he has not participated in government affairs in recent years, he is well aware of the struggles between various forces and factions. He hopes to use this opportunity to flex his muscles in Jinyiwei, so as to Develop your own power. So the first step is to rectify the Jinyiwei. This is as easy as managing your own household affairs.

Mei Xichen knew that before he took office, the post of Jinyiwei had been controlled by the former commander Gu Nianfeng. This Gu Nianfeng was originally just an aide under King Kang. Later, after being appreciated by King Kang, he was flattered and a little clever, and was exceptional. Promoted to the Commander of the Imperial Guard.

Mei Xichen understood that if he wanted to disintegrate King Kang's power, he must start with the people around him, and this Gu Nianfeng was his primary target.

"Here comes..." Mei Xichen opened the door and shouted outside the house.

"I'm here" I saw a man in a python suit walking towards him and saluting.

"What is the mission of the commander? I would like to see your lord Shen Tingyu, commander of the Jinyi Guards."

"You're here at the right time. Please bring the files from the past few years for my commander to read." Mei Xichen raised her voice and said.

"As ordered, I will send my subordinates to sort things out." After saying that, Shen Tingyu quickly retreated.

Apart from Mei Xichen, who has the highest official position among the Jinyi Guards, Gu Nianfeng and Shen Tingyu have the highest official positions. The two of them each perform their own duties, Gu Nianfeng prefers a civilian position, and Shen Tingyu prefers a military position. This has been the arrangement since Mei Xichen took office.

It can be said that Shen Tingyu was a subordinate when Gu Nianfeng was the commander, and his rank was lower than Gu Nianfeng. Because Shen Tingyu couldn't stand what King Kang did, he always had a grudge against Gu Nianfeng. However, this Shen Tingyu was from the Queen Mother's clan after all, so King Kang also I couldn't do anything about it, I just ignored him.

Until Mei Xichen's arrival, he also heard some things about Shen Tingyu from Xu Mo. He felt that he was an upright person and had always been at odds with King Kang, so he decided to reuse Shen Tingyu.

Mei Xichen's intention in checking the files was obviously to eliminate Gu Nianfeng, King Kang's minion in Jinyiwei, so as soon as he took office, he worked non-stop to find out his disciplinary violations and dereliction of duty over the years, in order to remove him as quickly as possible and remove Shen Tingyu Support the superior.

After all, Mei Xichen is still too young. Gu Nianfeng was originally King Kang's staff. He was always cautious in his actions. How could he have any clues in the files? After reading some, it turned out that there were many problems for officials with a thousand households or less.

Mei Xichen thought to himself: "Okay, I haven't found any flaws in you today, so I'll just wait for the opportunity."

In the following days, Mei Xichen vigorously moved his subordinates from the town to the local flags to interrogate those who had formed a party for personal gain and accepted bribes one by one. It can be said that except for Gu Nianfeng, all the party members installed by King Kang in Jinyiwei were not missed. Punishment is dealt with. In other words, Gu Nianfeng was replaced by his confidant in disguise.

Mei Xichen manages the affairs of Jinyiwei and can no longer live as carefree as before. However, he still stays with Shangguanqing whenever he has free time. After all, the two of them were newly married. When they were newlyweds, this was also the ten years that Mei Xichen had spent. I dare not even think about it.

In the evening, Mei Xichen and Shangguan Qing took a nap in the pavilion of Bieyuan. The maid Rongruo brought the snacks prepared in advance.

"What did the prince gain today?" Shangguan Qing asked with a smile.

"The harvest is huge. Let me tell Qing'er one by one."

So Mei Xichen recounted the results of the past few days to Shangguan Qing. The matter of rectifying the workplace was very serious, but the conversation between the two of them was accompanied by laughter and spread far and wide. And it reached Lin Yingxue's ears.

"Miss, the prince and the princess have been doing well recently. Except for the prince's official duties, they always stay with the prince the rest of the time." Lin Yingxue's maid said angrily.

"Are they still going to Mingyue Pool to soak in hot springs every day recently?" Lin Yingxue asked.

"Go, I have been going every day. Doctor Fang came today and said that the prince's condition is recovering well and he will be fully recovered in another month."

"So fast?" Lin Yingxue was tearing her silk handkerchief apart and said in surprise.

"Mr. Mei is currently preparing for a family dinner. One is to celebrate the prince's health, and the other is to celebrate the three-month wedding anniversary of the prince and the princess. Do you think this is the rule in this dynasty? Do you still celebrate the wedding in three months? " Lingyue deliberately provoked.

"What do you know? This is for Shangguan Qing to see, to express the gratitude of everyone in the palace to her."

"Oh, I understand, Miss is still smart." Lingyue nodded.

At this time, Lin Yingxue was a little jealous and regretful. She was jealous because Shangguanqing cured Mei Xichen's illness as soon as she came. Secondly, she was jealous that her cousin was so kind to her. The two were so close and loving that they were envious. Discourage others.

I really hate why I didn't agree to the old lady's request to marry my cousin. Even if my cousin disagrees, my cousin can only agree because the old lady makes the decision.

Even if my cousin later marries Shangguan Qing, it is nothing more than taking a concubine, but the position of the princess is unshakable.

Thinking of this, I became even more angry. But Lin Yingxue did not get carried away. She considered the whole thing carefully, and then she began to doubt Shangguan Qing's identity again.

"A woman thousands of miles away met a prince while visiting relatives, and then got married. Isn't this a coincidence? Besides, her aunt's house was obviously a cemetery. How could a magnificent villa suddenly appear? They What do you do? What do you do for a living? A series of questions arose in Lin Yingxue's head one by one. "

"Shangguan Qing can treat so many strange poisons that even the imperial doctors have never seen before at such a young age. Could it be that she has an expert's guidance behind her?"

"Then who is this master? But as time goes by, this fox's tail of Shangguanqing will eventually show up. My cousin's illness is not completely cured yet. I'll be able to act on my own once I recover."

"When the time comes, haha, if Shangguan Qing is kicked out of the palace, the position of the princess will be mine." Lin Yingxue thought as she felt that the position of the princess was within her reach, and finally showed a happy face with satisfaction.

After Mei Xichen and Shangguan finished admiring the moon, they walked towards the bedroom.

After instructing the maid to take a bath and change clothes, Shangguan Qing came to the bed, looked at Mei Xichen who had been waiting for a long time, and hugged her over. Mei Xichen took advantage of the situation and put Shangguan Qing on her lap. Looking at Qing'er who had just come out of the bath, she couldn't help but said with a bad smile:

"Does the princess need me to sleep with you today?"

"If your lord feels that I mean to intimidate you at all, then your lord should just go to the study and go to bed today." Shangguan Qing said with a wicked smile.

"No... no, it's too late for me to be grateful to the princess for giving me this opportunity to sleep with you. I don't mean to be coerced at all."

As she spoke, Mei Xichen hurriedly untied Shangguan Qing's coat and threw it under the bed.

At this time, the candles had been extinguished, and there was only the sound of the two playing in the room. Mei Xichen once again swallowed the inner elixir unknowingly.
