In November of the first year of Yankang, His Royal Highness King Huai, who had abdicated for a year, died of a violent illness.

After receiving this news, the Son of Heaven of Yankang cried so loudly that he almost fainted, and ordered King Huai to be buried according to imperial etiquette and buried in the imperial tomb where Yuan Zhao and Yuan Zhao began to excavate.

His Majesty the Emperor, who had sat on the throne for five years, had no heirs during his reign, although he had a princess, but during the year he lived in the Huaiwang Mansion, he gave birth to a son.

So this little prince who was born not long after King Huai's mansion was born, he attacked the title of King Huai, and the son of Yankang personally issued an edict and gave King Huai a hereditary title.

In the first year of Yankang, King Huai of the Great Jin Dynasty was officially buried in the emperor's mausoleum.

It was also on this day that after the eldest princess of Qinghe, the eldest princess of the Marquis of Jing'an, knew that her nephew had died of a violent illness, she personally went to the Huaiwang Mansion and took the little prince of the Huaiwang Mansion to her yard and raised her personally.

Because she knows very well in her heart that this child can only grow up smoothly if she is raised in the Jing'an Hou Mansion, and if she is placed in the Huaiwang Mansion, I am afraid that she will die at a few years old.

Because the Huaiwang Mansion should not have been passed down by blood, this child can be regarded as Li Xin's little compassion, but the vast majority of people in the capital are reluctant to see this kind of mercy.

Regarding the actions of the ninth princess, Li Xin did not speak, which can be regarded as acquiescence.

For a whole year, most of the key positions in the DPRK and the central government are either done by people from the southwest or by people who have completely fallen to the Jing'an Hou Mansion.

If it is said that in the fifth year of Yuan Zhao, the Southwest Army only entered the capital, then at this moment, the Southwest Department headed by Li Xin has completely controlled the imperial court, and the military and political affairs of a country have been in the hands of Li Xin.

The capital has changed hands, but the local entrenched forces are not something that any force can completely conquer, but after a year, the vast majority of the local forces already know what the situation is in the capital, and the officials of the southwest department sent by Li Xin to the local area began to slowly reach a tacit understanding with the local forces.

At the same time, the clan kings of the Ji family all over the country were more or less targeted.

So far, the surname has changed from the world, and there is only a good news from Jizhou City.

In the first year of Yankang, snow fell from the sky.

It snowed heavily for three days and three nights, turning the entire capital in white.

The day is about to dawn, at the gate of the Jing'an Hou Mansion, several people under the gatekeeper are sweeping the snow at the door, an old man with gray hair, about fifty years old, holding an eight or nine-year-old child in his hand, glanced at the gate of the Jing'an Hou Mansion with some shrunkness.

After confirming that it was the Marquis of Jing'an's Mansion, the old man's eyes lit up and he walked up.

As soon as he got close to the distance of about ten steps away from the Jing'an Hou Mansion, a bright blade crossed in front of the old man, a black-clothed guard of the Jing'an Hou Mansion, with white air in his mouth and a cold voice: "The Hou Mansion is important, no one is allowed to trespass!" ”

This old man, who has been in a small place all his life, where has he seen this battle, he was immediately frightened and jumped up, and then waved his hand again and again: "I am your Uncle Li Houye, I am your Li Houye's uncle......"

He spoke in a vague Yongzhou dialect, I don't know if it was because of the cold or fear, his voice trembled a little: "I want to see him......"

This general of the Marquis of Jing'an's Mansion frowned slightly when he heard this, he first glanced at the old man, and then at the child behind the old man, and asked, "You...... What is your name? ”

"I ...... My name is Xiao... Peace. ”

Hearing this, the general nodded, and said, "You wait here, I'll report to the above." ”

After that, he turned around and walked in, reporting layer by layer, and finally reached the ears of Li Xin, who was studying in the warm pavilion, Li Xin heard the name Xiao Zhiping, first felt familiar, and then remembered that it was indeed his relative in Qiyang County, he frowned slightly, and said: "Why is he here......"

Li Xin now has to deal with a lot of things every day, and he didn't want to see him, but when he saw the heavy snow outside, he remembered for no reason the old things when his uncle brought him into Beijing, so he sighed: "Let them in." ”

"Yes."

The current Li Xin is completely different from before, so the "security" of the Jing'an Hou Mansion is also very different from before, Xiao Zhiping and the two of them were taken to the warm pavilion of the Jing'an Hou Mansion after layers of searches and made sure that they did not have any iron weapons on them.

As soon as I walked into the warm pavilion, a warm heat came to my face.

An old man and a young man came to the capital from Yongzhou, and they also suffered a lot, and it snowed heavily in the capital these days, although they were not very poor, but they were also frozen.

At this time, Li Xin was sitting behind his desk flipping through some paperwork without raising his head.

Xiao Zhiping took two steps forward in fear, first glanced at Li Xin, then gritted his teeth, knelt down directly in front of Li Xin, kowtowed, and said: "Xiao Zhiping, a grass citizen, has seen ...... Hou Ye."

Only then did Li Xin put down his hand of the Chinese book and looked up at Xiao Zhiping.

"Why, isn't this my uncle now?"

When he was a young marquis, when he returned to his hometown, he bullied and bullied these relatives who were very bad to their mother and son in the old days, and there would be some happy feelings, but after more than ten years of ups and downs in the court, ups and downs, at this time, seeing Xiao Zhiping kneeling in front of him, Li Xin no longer had any waves.

Xiao Zhiping knelt on the ground, pulled the boy next to him, and said in a low voice: "Kneel down quickly and kowtow to your cousin." ”

This boy was only eight or nine years old, and when he heard this, he also knelt down, kowtowed to Li Xin, and said, "Kowtow to my cousin." ”

Xiao Zhiping still knelt on the ground and never got up, he looked up at Li Xin, with a smile on his face: "Master Hou, Xiaomin is in Yongzhou, I heard that Master Hou is in the capital...... That, the family was worried about whether there would be a shortage of reassuring manpower around Hou Ye, so Xiao Min took his grandson and some family members to the capital to visit Hou Ye......"

He said with a bitter face: "How do you know that the coils you carry have been robbed by the thieves, Xiaomin and his grandson have worked hard to rush to the capital, and finally have to see the ...... of Hou Ye's face."

Li Xin's power in the capital has basically spread all over the country, and there is naturally news in Yongzhou, although he knows that this nephew of the Hou Ye is not dealing with his own family, but as long as he goes to the capital, he can be mixed with the identity of "imperial relatives" if he is not careful, and the Xiao family is naturally excited.

At this time, Li Xin's uncle Xiao Xiuqi had died of illness, so Xiao Zhiping took his grandson and hired a car to come to the capital to "find relatives".

Hearing the word "Tianyan" in Xiao Zhiping's mouth, Li Xin frowned slightly, and then said slowly: "We are fellow villagers in Qiyang, you have suffered in the capital, and you have come to me, I naturally can't help you, how much are you missing, say the number, and I will let the account room pay you ...... when you turn around."

Xiao Zhiping looked at Li Xin with a stunned face, and after a long time, he knelt on the ground again, gritted his teeth and said, "Master Hou, our ancestors and grandchildren...... I want to borrow it for a while in the Hou Ye's Mansion. ”

"My grandson is eight years old this year, he is naturally smart, and Xiaomin wants him to study in the capital for future scientific research ......"

He knelt in the field, with the utmost humility.

"Besides...... Hou Ye, there must always be some people around you who can be completely trusted, and those people with foreign surnames will only think about murdering Hou Ye's family business......"
