Dress as a villain

"Today, everyone inside and outside the imperial court supports Madam's restoration. This Commander hereby announces that Si Qitong will return to the position of Princess Royal Patriarch under all certifications."

"The sealing ceremony will be held immediately in three days."

"The minister waits to obey the order!" Everyone said one after another.

On the day of the conferring ceremony, the people of Tianjing learned that the late emperor's daughter was going to restore her princess status, and everyone spread the word in the streets and alleys.Let's start to elaborate on the various benefits of the restoration of the princess.

"As long as the Nine Jin Dynasty returns to the throne, the degraded refugees can respect the eldest princess as their master and succeed them as Jin people, instead of buying and selling unmanaged wild people for others."

"Those soldiers and ruffians will no longer dare to arrest us like pheasants and serve as soldiers to die."

"It is better to have an identity than to have no identity. I don't want to live the days of being bullied everywhere."

"As long as we have the civil status of the Ninth Jin Dynasty, we can live like the people of the Eighth Jin Dynasty, and maybe we can still be qualified to farm."

"We finally don't have to be displaced."

Soon someone shouted: "The eldest princess is a thousand years old."

The refugees all cheered: "The eldest princess is a thousand years old."

For the first time, the streets and alleys have the atmosphere of the Chinese New Year.

In the Jinluan Hall, Tianjing officials knelt in the aisle of the two coiled dragon pillars to welcome Si Qitong.

Xie officials bowed their heads in salute.

Si Qitong wore a red robe with a phoenix pattern, and the tail robe was like a phoenix with feathers. She wore a gold silk crown as a concubine, dignified, with her hands folded into the sleeves, and walked gracefully on the red carpet into the Golden Palace.The maid behind her is pulling the phoenix robe for her.

Xie Lanzhi was waiting for her on the throne, and saw Si Qitong stepping in.

With a phoenix crown and red clothes, she is exquisite and beautiful, as if she is getting married, but she knows that this is not marriage.It is the first step for a little girl to become an empress.

She finally took the first step.

The ceremonial officer and Li Ling, the minister of rites, began to read the sacrificial oration to the Jin Dynasty, which was long and sacred.

Si Qitong stood dignifiedly, Xie Lanzhi looked at her intently, very seriously.

It's hard not to imagine what she will look like when she dominates the world in the future.

Half an hour passed, Li Ling finished reading, and then the ritual officer stood beside Xie Lanzhi holding the sandalwood plate with the Phoenix seal.

Xie Lanzhi got up, and she handed over the gold scarf wrapping seal to Si Qitong.

"Princess Fengning, from today onwards, you will resume your status as the heir apparent, and grant Bianzhou Biancheng a fiefdom."

Si Qi Tong Chao bowed slightly to her: "Thank you Lord for your kindness! Fu Feng will definitely not disappoint Master Xie."

Xie Lanzhi said with complicated eyes: "Give Lanzhang Palace your bedroom."

Si Qi Tong said: "Fortunately, I can sleep with Master Zhi."

Seeing that she was so polite, Xie Lanzhi couldn't help complaining, "We've been sharing the same bed for almost half a year."

Si Qitong suddenly said in a low voice: "It will take decades to grow old from white hair to old age. When I am old, please thank the Lord for not being a poor wife."

Xie Lanzhi felt that she was also being complained about, she raised her eyebrows and said: "How could it be! I was a few years ago when I was an old man, and what you said also applies to you."

The old antique Li Ling next to him turned his face away, a little embarrassed.Coughing softly, she signaled, "It's time for Her Royal Highness to go to the Temple of the Son of Heaven to offer incense to the late Emperor."

Xie Lanzhi's face turned red, why was she being led off topic by this little girl, Si Qitong also put away a bit of playfulness, as if the person who spoke just now was not her.

Simply changeable.

Afterwards, Si Qitong went with Li Guan and Li Ling to the Temple of the Son of Heaven. Only the Son of Heaven has ever stepped into the Temple of Heaven. Similarly, on important days every year, the descendants can also go in to worship, not to mention Si Qitong's own descendants, who can only enter the temple. There were only two seedlings left, and the incense had faded, so Si Qitong had to enter the Temple of the Son of Heaven to burn incense on the tablet of the Son of Heaven.

At the same time, entering the Temple of the Son of Heaven also represents Si Qitong's identity. From now on, she will be Princess Fengning, the real emperor's son!

The status of kings everywhere must respect her as the master.

In the Jin Dynasty, the eldest princess was a title with real power, and she was assigned with the prince regardless of the fief and the army. Sometimes the eldest princess was even higher than the prince, and she was on an equal footing with the prince.

Xie Lanzhi assigned Xie Shangguang's 2000 troops to Si Qitong's side to protect her.

Xie Shangguang was very happy, since the mistress convicted Xie Yongxin as a beast and sent his mother and the doorman to the South Region for disposal, it was heard that the doorman had been executed, and Xie Yongxin's mother was also sent to the nunnery to clear the Buddha.

There is one more mistress who he admires.

Xie Lanzhi knew that it would take her a day to go to the Temple of Heaven to pay respects, and she would return at night.

A temporary meeting was organized in Jianzhang Palace to discuss the issue of rectification and restoration of rites and music.

They all acted in the name of Princess Fengning's restoration.

Xie Lanzhi ordered Wu Qiu directly.

"Wu Qiu, from now on you will no longer be the left servant of the Ministry of War."

When Wu Qiu was appointed, he bowed his hands and said neither arrogant nor humble: "I obey the order."

"Taking this opportunity, I want to establish a new system of examiners in Tianjing." Xie Lanzhi told Wu Qiu the prototype of the imperial examination, and Wu Qiu understood her meaning immediately after being well-read.

And Wu Qiu said: "Marshal, it seems that this imperial examination and the system of education without distinction proposed by the Southern Dynasties come from one body."

The Southern Dynasty in this world is a county seat, but the Southern Dynasty is a very strange small country. It is obviously a small country. The whole country is full of scholars, and they can't fight. If anyone wants to invade them, they will go to them and recommend their own system.There are also dynasties that have used it, but within a hundred years, they fought fiercely and were invaded and wiped out by foreign enemies.

Since then, this century-old system has been submerged in the flames of history.

Now that Xie Shuai has proposed this system, Wu Qiu is really happy. He has always admired the system of being an official in the Southern Dynasties, and believes that it is suitable for the current selection system.

Xie Lanzhi said: "The final examination room will be set in Tianjing, and the township examination will be temporarily set in Bianzhou Biancheng."

"The commander-in-chief will invest in that area, build an academy, and subsidize scholars."

Although imperial examinations spread only in small areas, budding is better than nothing.

"Marshal, although it is temporary, you can attract unborn scholars and counselors in the world, and let the world see your respect for scholars." Wu Qiu all praised: "Marshal's move will definitely be famous through the ages."

Xie Lanzhi didn't want to receive this reputation. She was also a person who stood on the shoulders of giants and picked up the wisdom of others, so she didn't have the qualifications.

Seeing that Xie Shuai was not praised, Wu Qiu had to restrain himself.

Xie Lanzhi took the opportunity to bring up another matter: "By the way, order the Eight Jins to tell them that the eldest princess has been restored."

Wu Qiu said, "Does the Marshal have any other orders?"

Xie Lanzhi felt that it was impossible to become a fat man with one bite, so she announced this paragraph tentatively.

The officials of the Xie family didn't know what the imperial examination was, so they asked Wu Qiu, who was promoted, about it one after another, and Wu Qiu popularized it one by one.

After the science popularization, the faces of Xie's officials all turned serious.

After all, the imperial examination system is something they compete for, how can they tolerate their own interests being divided.So they petitioned Xie Lanzhi one after another: "Please Marshal take back the order! This imperial examination is not good for our Xie family."

Xie Lanzhi wasn't too tough on them this time. As the leader of a vested interest group, it's called righteousness to touch her own cake, but it's impossible for her clan to think about the world as much as she does.

After all, people are selfish.

She said: "From now on, the Xie family's children will study diligently and strive to be the first batch of talents selected for the imperial examination. The same applies to the military examinations."

"If it doesn't work in the future, let's decide."

After hearing this, the officials of the Xie family had no choice but to compromise. Since Xie Shuai intended to let his own people test the imperial examination first and occupy the position first, they have no objection for the time being.Anyway, it's just an experiment, and we will come out together and reject this system when it doesn't fit in the future.

"The minister waits to obey the order."

After taking the imperial examination, Xie Lanzhi finally turned his attention back to Ba Jin.

She put forward an imperial order: "From now on, whoever dares to surpass the Jin Dynasty's concubine to proclaim the emperor first, I, the Xie family, will send troops to crusade!"

The military officers of the Xie family put their hands on their waist knives one after another, and the wind of martial arts was instantly set off.

This imperial decree was spread to all parts of the Eight Jins, and the Five Jins and Six Jins responded first. They would definitely not proclaim themselves emperors, and would only focus on Tianjing.Si Lei received this imperial order when he was still in Tianjing, and he returned to Qijin that night, angry at the shattering of his imperial dream.

And the first, second, third and fourth Jins were in the remote northwest, north and south, and central and northern regions. When they received it, the four kings discovered that their niece could make the Xie family reset for her.

There is also a sealed territory, which is larger than their Jin Dynasty, and the land in the border towns and border states is fertile, unlike their severe cold and frozen soil.

Compared with the fifth, sixth and seventh Jins, these four Jins are poor relatives.

As the so-called rich and distant relatives in the mountains, Si Jin saw the opportunity and sent his eldest son to Tianjing to seek the glory of Siqi Tong's relatives.

After Wu Liu Qi Jin heard about it, apart from Si Lei being tougher, the other two also sent their youngest son to Tianjing to recognize relatives.

Xie Lanzhi's wanton restoration of the Jin Dynasty affected the whole south.With the prestige of the concubine's family, he began to suppress the Eight Jin Dynasty.

She heard that someone from the Eighth Jin Dynasty had sent a son to Beijing to test her attitude.

Xie Lanzhi ignored some concubines, and proposed to regain the territory belonging to Tianjing's royal family during the meeting of Jinluan Hall.

"What do you mean by the ownership of the concubine's lost land?"

Since Si Qitong was restored, Tianjing officials' right to speak has increased accordingly. Some people began to suggest: "Xie Shuai, I think these disputed areas are extremely scattered and there are many rebels, so it is better to send troops to take them back."

Another official thought: "In this way, there will be disputes with the Eight Jin Dynasty, because Tianjing belongs to the Eight Jin Dynasty in a remote place, and the Eight Jin Dynasty regards Xie Shuai as its benefactor. It should not be treated like this."

There are conservative opinions and straight to the point.

Xie Lanzhi thinks that this is something that should be faced sooner or later. In troubled times, the strong are respected, and she is very fair.But this time, there is no need for a war of words.

She decisively ordered: "Xie Guang brought 1 people to the important places in the Eighth Jin Dynasty. If you don't give it, you will call. If you give it, put it on the list and I will compensate you as appropriate."

Xie Guang excitedly said: "The final general obeys orders!"

Xie Guang took 1 people out, and the Eighth Jin Dynasty received the news and began to gather their subordinates to liquidate the land and return it to Tianjing. Except for the Seventh Jin Dynasty, some more land was returned.

Among them, whether the important lands have been returned is not because the Eighth Jin Dynasty refused, but because these areas were occupied by rebels.Ba Jin was too lazy to spend on cost management, so he kept putting it on hold.

Now it happens that Master Xie is in charge, so I can use Master Xie to get rid of a heartache for them.

When Xie Guang met the rebels, the rebels even negotiated with him before returning them. Xie Guang believed that the Generalissimo was gentle and should accept the surrender.

Unexpectedly.Xie Lanzhi learned that she directly ordered: "Put!"

Xie Guang was stunned immediately, why did the Marshal change his soft policy?
