At the end of the khaki official road in Dongyang County, the small city wall of Ning County stood. Qin Yu was awakened by the carriage, looked out the window and let out a sigh of relief.

Dongyang County was not completely entrusted to him. Emperor Xuan divided Dongyang County into two, and the one next to the capital was renamed Xinyang County, and the rest was still called Dongyang County and returned to Jin State.

Ning County was originally an inconspicuous small county in Dongyang County, but with such a division, it has become a strategic place between the capital and himself. Qin Yu has already vaguely seen that Ning County will grow higher and higher in the future.

With the city gate in sight, Zhao Zhiping came slowly, "My lord, the person to pick you up has arrived."

"who is it?"

"The guard of the beam, guarding the birthday"

"Yes." Qin Yu agreed calmly, pondered for a while and said, "Order Wang Meng to comfort the soldiers, and the order says that the king is in poor health and cannot be summoned."

"Yes." Zhao Zhiping was puzzled and went to deliver the order.

Beam

Outside the city gate, all the officials of the Jin Dynasty and nobles of the family, under the leadership of Fan Wentian, greeted them at the gate

The huge Jin character appeared on the black flag, Fan Wentian watched the car driving slowly approaching, and led everyone to kneel down together.

"Welcome Your Majesty Home"

As the car approached slowly, Wang Meng got off his horse and helped Fan Wentian up, and said loudly to the crowd, "Your Majesty has an order, he is not in good health, he will recover in the next day, and he will be summoned again."

"The humble minister complies with the decree" and everyone leads the decree.

King Jin's car drove slowly into the city, Fan Wentian bowed to send King Jin away, turned to look at a few colleagues who were hesitant to speak, shook his head slightly, and signaled everyone to go back to the mansion first.

Jin Palace

Nine-fold corridors and pavilions, high-rise buildings, cornices and corridors, when Qin Yu was the king of Yan, the country of Yan was weak and he wanted to confuse Qin Zheng, there were only a few palaces in the palace of Jicheng, he didn't know what the rich Wu palace was like Yes, but the Jin Palace in front of him is the largest and most majestic palace he has ever seen besides the imperial palace.

Qin Yu has never been back to Daliang since it was granted the seal. Qin Yu only saw a few words in the official documents for the renovation of the royal city and the construction of the palace, but he did not expect it to be so magnificent.

"Who supervised the construction of the palace?" Qin Yu asked.

"Return to the prince, and the An family supervises the construction"

King Jin nodded, and walked forward without saying yes or no. When everyone heard his words, they thought that King Jin would reward An Shi. Only Wang Meng was next to him and heard King Jin muttering, "I'm not afraid that I will get lost." The corner of General Wang's mouth was hurt. Twitching, almost rolling her eyes.

King Jin has not recovered from his illness for two days, and even refused to visit the ministers, Fan Wentian began to worry, is this King Jin really sick?

The carriage stopped, and Fan Wentian got out of the car and stepped forward in person, "I wonder if Mr. Zhao is at home?"

"Are you?" the old butler asked suspiciously.

"Old man Fan Wentian, I'm here to pay a visit to Mr. Zhao"

"Fan Xiang" saluted the old man, and quickly walked sideways to introduce "Fan Xiang is later, sir will come immediately"

Zhao Zhiping walked through the central hall to the flower hall, saw Fan Wentian waiting inside, smiled, "Fan Xiang", he quickly stepped forward, and gave a deep salute.

"Mr. Zhao" Fan Wentian also saluted, and said with a smile, "When the capital is farewell, Mr. Zhao's demeanor is always missed by me, so I just came to pay a visit as soon as Mr. Zhao finished packing. Don't worry about it."

"Wan Sheng didn't dare, Fan Quite's actions made Wan Sheng admire him," Zhao Zhiping said politely.

Hehe...Fan Wentian smiled, looked at him and said, "Sir, the prince is ill, and all the ministers miss him, so I asked the old man to ask the sir, is the prince better, but there is something that I need to do my best."

"Fan Xiang is worried, but the journey is tiring, and the battle injury has recurred, the prince is a little tired, and he wants to rest, it's not a big problem."

"That's good." Fan Wentian nodded. He still wanted to explore, but after thinking about it, he decided that it's better to be cautious.

"This is the tax account of the Jin State, and some seals that are kept by the old minister. Now that the prince is returning to the country, I will trouble Mr. Zhao to pass it on to the prince."

Zhao Zhiping took the things, smiled and said, "Don't worry, Fan Xiang, I will tell the prince what you said later."

Fan Wentian said a few more polite words, got up to leave, Zhao Zhiping looked at the things in his hand, and was puzzled by King Jin's actions for a while.

"Sir, King Jin summoned you"

"Later, I'll be right there"

Lexing Temple

In Qin Yu's new study, the palace lanterns are bright, and the interior of the hall is illuminated, making it appear more spacious. On the contrary, there is no small study, which makes people feel at ease.

"My lord, Mr. Zhao is here," Xiao Fuzi replied.

"come in"

"See you, my lord." Zhao Zhi saluted in parallel, put the things in front of King Jin's table and said, "This is from Mr. Fan."

Qin Yu flipped through it a few times, chuckled and said, "What did you say?"

"Just to ask about the prince's condition"

"Hehe... the old minister still has so many thoughts."

"Prince" Zhao Zhiping smiled, and said to him, "You have been refusing to summon all the ministers, is it because you are worried about Fan Xiang?"

"More than that." Qin Yu waved his hand to signal him to sit down, and continued, "Do you know who the guard general of Daliang is?"

Zhao Zhiping frowned slightly and remained silent. Qin Yu smiled and explained, "Shou Qingsheng is Fan Wentian's nephew, and Fan Xiang also has a son-in-law. They are from the Jiang family in Yanchang County, now you understand why I don’t want to see them.”

"My lord...worry about the family" Zhao Zhiping's expression changed slightly.

"That's right, I'm worried about the northern family behind Fan Xiang, the Jin family." Qin Yu nodded with a serious look on his face, "The family is like a tiger, fashionable and cute when young, but it will eventually become a beast. The king has been letting go for too long, and he has no opponent."

"But the prince should understand that the vassal state and the family coexist, if you act rashly..."

"Sir, this king understands, naturally he won't want to kill them all like Wang Qianhe, at least not until he finds other ways."

"So this humble minister understands," Zhao Zhi saluted.

King Jin wanted to take over the power, from the family, so he had to know the intricate relationship between the family, so the excuse was to buy time for himself.

in a few days

Lexing Hall, His Royal Highness King Jin and Mr. Zhao met each other, and were silent for a moment.

The complexity of the family in the Jin Kingdom made it unexpected for both of them. Qin Yu only knew that he had let things go a little bit at that time, but he did not expect that it would become where he is today.The big clans marry each other, and the small clans intermarry with each other. They are dependent and united. There is me in you, and you in me. They are inseparable at all.

"Prince" Mr. Zhao broke the deadlock "Although it is chaotic, there are still traces to follow. The Fan family, An family, and Xu family controlled the Jin Dynasty government, and the Jiang family, Kong family, and Wang family had hairpin tassels for generations."

"This king started in the army, the Jiang family and the Kong family are loyal, the Wang family has deep roots, and the three clans cannot move for the time being."

"My minister understands that the general trend of the world is not suitable for mobilizing troops. First take over the Jin Dynasty's government, and then gradually plan it in the future"

"Hehe, sir, how do you accept it?" Qin Yu looked at him and said leisurely, "Please enlighten me, sir."

This...Mr. Zhao's face turned red, and he cupped his hands and said, "My minister is stupid and has no clue yet."

"It's nothing." Qin Yu patted him on the shoulder comfortingly and said, "This king will delay it for a few more days, and sooner or later he will be able to take it back."

"My minister resigns." Zhao Zhiping left with some shame.

Palace of Government Affairs

In the early morning, just as the sun was rising, Qin Yu crossed the school grounds in a chariot. After a few days, it was time to meet people, so he couldn't keep ignoring him.

The vassal state is the same as the imperial court, and it is also governed by the chief minister and hundreds of officials. Because His Royal Highness King Jin has been away for a long time, all the officials have always kowtowed to the throne, and then Fan Wentian presides over the government. Now that King Jin is back, this scene is also... no different!

On the throne, Qin Yu quietly looked at the people in the hall, and finally understood why His Majesty wanted to get rid of him so much. This throne is high above, but it is actually just a decoration. How could he not be angry if he can't make a word or plan for a king.

"Reporting to the Great King" Fan Wentian bowed, but the King Jin's silence made him very uneasy, "I don't know what the ministers are talking about, is there something wrong?"

All the ministers fell silent for a moment, and only then did they remember that King Jin was still sitting on the throne, and they all stood with their heads bowed, waiting for King Jin's will.

Heh, this is exactly the same as the Palace of Eternal Life with the phrase "Your Majesty's Holy Spirit"!

"Fan Xiang has always been safe, so let's do as Xiangguo said." Qin Yu said kindly.

"The humble minister complies with the order" Fan Wentian bowed.

"Weichen complies with the order" and everyone bowed together.

The corners of Qin Yu's eyes twitched, he looked at everyone with a smile and said, "This king has just recovered from a serious illness, and his spirit is not good. Ai Qing and others are well versed in government affairs. This king doesn't have to watch the court meeting every day, but once every five days."

Everyone was silent, looking at Fan Wentian secretly out of the corner of their eyes, Fan Wentian hesitated and asked, "My lord, if there is something urgent, what should I do?"

"Hehe, what's the rush?" Qin Yu got up with a smile and said, "Whoever is in a hurry can go directly to the palace."

"King..."

"Okay, I'm tired." His Royal Highness King Jin stepped off the throne and walked outside the hall, "Let's go."

"Congratulations to the King"

Fan Wentian straightened up, his eyelids twitched, he always felt that King Jin must have something to do, and he couldn't get away with it.

Jin Palace

The winding mahogany fence winds to the Orchid Pavilion in the center of the lake, and white gauze tents surround the pavilion, leaving only faint shadows, adding to the reverie.

His Royal Highness King Jin held a young actor in his arms, held the other's hand, and taught the beauty to write stroke by stroke.Outside the small pavilion, Xiao Fuzi walked slowly around the corridor with a young man in a blue satin and brocade robe.

"My lord, the Anfu Secretary has arrived"

"Mo'er, go to the side and wait for the king." Mo'er stood up, Qin Yu turned around, looked at the young man and said, "Zimo, sit inside"

"See you, my lord." An Zimo sat beside him saluting, "I don't know what your lord's order is when he summons you?"

"I don't have any instructions. During the few days when I was ill, I could only wander around the palace, only to find that Mrs. An put great effort in supervising and building the palace. This king specially asked you to come, thank you Zimo"

"How dare you take credit for something that is within the responsibility of a humble minister"

"Get up, there is no need to be polite." Qin Yu waved his hand, sat him down and said, "Your father died of illness last year, and this king is still under siege in the capital, but hearing it suddenly makes my heart ache."

"My father passed away suddenly, and my younger brother and I panicked for a moment. I don't want the prince to remember it. I and my younger brother are deeply moved," An Zimo said in a well-mannered manner.

"Thinking back to the first year when the king first came to the throne, he had no time to care about the state of Jin. He relied more on the guidance of Mr. An and Fan Xiang, so that the country's fortunes would not be slack. This king and Mr. An first met, Mr. An was the year of destiny, and this king was just a weak crown. For this king, Mr. An is a good friend and even a good teacher. This king should go to mourn in person.”

King Jin sighed and sighed very sincerely, but An Zimo knew in his heart that King Jin would never ask him to enter the palace just to reminisce about his late father.

"The family of An's business traveler, supported by the prince, has An's today. My father always teaches me and my younger brother when he is alive, remember the kindness of the prince, and swear allegiance to Jin."

At such a young age, he is good at Tai Chi!Qin Yu smiled, and Xiao Fuzi ran from the side and said, "Go back to the lord, Fan Xiang asks to see you"

"Come back!"

King Jin waved his hand and said nonchalantly, An Zimo looked at his thoughts, half lowered his head and didn't make a sound.

"The son wants to support his relatives, but this king is the same as Zimo. Back then, the concubine was seriously ill, and this king was not by her side. Every time I think about this, I regret it very much. I am really ashamed to be a son of man."

"The concubine is kind, and she must be pleased to see the prince so benevolent and filial in the spirit of heaven."

Qin Yu frowned slightly, with a sad face on his face, he stood up and said, "But I will remember it in my heart, and I can't let it go."

An Zi paused for a moment, and thoughtfully said, "My lord is now very famous. If the concubine has a last wish, the lord can also help her to fulfill it. It can be regarded as the filial piety of the prince. The concubine will be happy to know it."

"Mother and concubine loved to climb high and look far away. The king once promised to build a high platform for the mother and concubine. Unfortunately, it has not been completed. The An family has experience in supervising the construction of the palace. I don't know if Zimo is willing to complete this for the king."

King Jin finally revealed his purpose, An Zimo heaved a sigh of relief, and immediately stood up and saluted, "The palace was actually built under the supervision of my younger brother, so I ordered him to come see the lord."

Haha...His Royal Highness King Jin smiled, looking very happy and said, "So, Zimo will go back and check how much money is needed, and discuss it with Fan Xiang." An Zimo's father was originally Sinong, and An Zimo took care of him after his death.

"Yes"

"Zimo, you have always acted on behalf of your father. After this incident, you will be my king's new farmer."

"My humble minister thanked the lord!" An Zimo saluted deeply, Fan Wentian had always blocked him from taking over his father's position, and now King Jin promised, it really made him excited.

The Secretary of Anfu left, Qin Yu sat back, his face became heavy, this An Zimo was more stable than his father, but also more ambitious than his father, as expected, it is not easy for a family to become big.

Qin Yu really wanted to wait until Zhao Zhiping and himself came up with a perfect plan, but the scene in the court hall made him deeply afraid. Everyone couldn't see him, the King of Jin, and watched Fan Xiang closely at every word and deed. Maybe he was at a loss. A person, but it is true that Fan Wentian follows the lead.

You can't wait, the power of Jin must be placed in your own hands immediately.

The An family was in the first year of Yonghe. When Qin Yu became the King of Jin, in order to win over the state of Jin and stabilize the foundation, the aristocratic family that he single-handedly supported was originally comparable to the Fan family, but An Zimo's father died, and the Fan family dominated.Since there is no solution for both sides for the time being, we can only elevate Anshi, let the two sides compete and check and balance each other.

But An Zimo

"Prince" Mo'er came from outside the pavilion and called out loudly.

"Hehe, come here." Qin Yu put away his thoughts and waved to him with a smile on his face.

Mo'er nodded and walked over with a smile. Qin Yu hugged the limp Mo'er in his arms and smiled softly.Mo'er was fifteen or sixteen years old, charming and lovely, with a background as an actor, and it was Daliang who ordered Wu Zian to send him to the palace according to his liking.

well!People from all walks of life are thinking too much, why is politics so difficult!

"My lord, this word is so difficult"

"Just practice more." Qin Yu patted the top of his head and said, "Whatever, if you do more, you will become proficient."
