If Taikang Tianzi was alive, he could still use coercive means to keep Li Xin in the capital, but Yuan Zhao Tianzi couldn't, he didn't have the capital to completely turn his face with Li Xin, so when it didn't make sense in theory, he could only reluctantly let Li Xin out of Beijing.

On the morning of the third day, three carriages from the Hou Mansion of Jing'an walked out of the back gate of the Hou Mansion and walked towards the south gate of the capital.

Ten years ago, Li Xin returned to his hometown, except for the hundreds of Yulinwei with him, he could be regarded as alone, ten years later, the Jing'an Hou Mansion has been scattered, the eldest princess of Qinghe and Li Xin's pair of children, plus Zhong Xiaoxiao, Chen Sixteen, all followed Li Xin out of Beijing together, and only Chen Sixteen's daughter-in-law Hui Niang was left in the capital to take care of the house.

When they were in Yongle Fang, the genius was bright, and when they arrived at the south gate of the capital, the sun had already risen from the east.

A chariot of dark and yellow colors has been waiting at the gate of the South City Gate for a long time.

Chen Sixteen, who was driving, recognized Long Yuan at a glance, stopped the carriage, turned back to the carriage and said, "Master Hou, Your Majesty's car is in front." ”

Li Xin in the carriage nodded, took his family together, and got out of the carriage, including the eldest princess, walked to the chariot of the Son of Heaven, and bowed respectfully to Long Chariot.

"Minister Li Xin, I have seen Your Majesty."

Originally, the emperor came to see them off, and the emperor should get off the car first, but the etiquette of the monarch and the ministers exceeded the sophistication of human feelings, so it was Li Xin's family who got off the car first and saluted the Son of Heaven.

Including the ninth princess, she also blessed her nephew and called her majesty.

Yuan Zhao Tianzi in Longyuan stepped out of the carriage with the support of the great eunuch Xiao Zheng, and returned the salute to Li Xin and his wife.

"Uncle, aunt."

Although he was only fourteen years old, he was not short, although he was half a head lower than Li Xin, but at this time, his aunt, the Ninth Princess, was already a little taller.

When he and Li Xin met, they were called master and apprentice, but now that the Ninth Princess was present, he should call Li Xin his uncle.

After the young man returned the salute, he sighed: "This is going to Yongzhou, there are thousands of mountains and rivers, and my uncle and aunt will go, I don't know how long it will take to come back." ”

Li Xin smiled and didn't speak, but the ninth princess stepped forward and smiled at her nephew: "Your Majesty, I went to Yongzhou ten years ago, and the maximum round trip is four or five months, and I will come back for at least half a year, and I will come back in a year at most." ”

As she spoke, she glanced back at Li Xin and sighed slightly: "Your uncle rarely returns to his homeland when he enters the capital as a young man, and the last time he went back was ten years ago, you have to be considerate and considerate of him." ”

"It is a matter of course for my uncle to return to his hometown to worship his mother, and I naturally will not stop it."

As he spoke, he quietly glanced at Li Xin, and then said, "Auntie, my uncle has been gone for a year and a half, and I have some state affairs to consult my uncle, can you delay some time?" ”

The ninth princess is the only sister of the Taikang Tianzi, she has often gone to the Wei Wangfu to play since she was able to leave the palace, and the Yuanzhao Tianzi in front of her has been watched by her since she was born, and she has always regarded it as her own son, even if he is the emperor, it is the same.

The ninth princess smiled and said, "If you ask him anything, I will take your younger brothers and sisters back to the carriage and wait." ”

The Son of Heaven bent down and hugged his cousin, smiling all over his face.

After the Ninth Princess and the others walked away, he looked up at Li Xin and sighed slightly.

"Teacher, to be honest, I really can't bear to let you go."

Marquis Jing'an smiled.

"Worried that the minister will quit?"

The Son of Heaven shook his head.

"The teacher is a believer, and he will definitely return to Beijing if he says he will return to Beijing."

Speaking of this, the Son of Heaven scratched his head.

"It's just that this state affairs are complicated, and I only feel that it is a mess and difficult to start."

He smiled bitterly: "The teacher is in the capital, I still have some confidence in doing things, if the teacher leaves, I'm afraid I won't even dare to say anything in Shangshutai." ”

"Say what you have to say."

The Marquis of Jing'an was like an old farmer, with his two hands in his sleeves and bowing slightly.

"The first emperor once told me, he said that being an emperor is actually the simplest, it is nothing more than nodding and shaking his head, whether he does it right or wrong, the people below will say that His Majesty has done it right, but if you keep doing it wrong, the people will be sad."

Speaking, Li Xin said with a smile: "My Great Jin Dynasty ruled the world from Emperor Wu, and after Emperor Zhao Emperor Jing's hard work, now it can be said that it is the time when the national strength is extremely strong, Your Majesty just need to choose boldly and boldly, it doesn't matter if you are blind, even if Your Majesty is unlucky, all the wrong choices, as long as Your Majesty does not do anything angry and resentful, the family background left by several generations of Son of Heaven is enough for the Yuan Zhao Dynasty." ”

These words are a bit hurtful, but it is the truth, Emperor Wu ruled the world, Chengde Taikang and the two dynasties have been recuperating, and now the economy and people's livelihood of the Great Jin Dynasty are in their heyday, and it is the most prosperous time of a dynasty.

Although under this prosperity, there are many hidden dangers.

Just like the Xuanzong Dynasty of the Tang Dynasty.

Yuan Zhao Tianzi smiled bitterly and sighed: "It's not the first time that the teacher has said such things, as if I will be a faint monarch in the future." ”

Li Xin smiled slightly.

"The minister doesn't mean this, the minister means that Your Majesty, the son of heaven, can be more willful, and you don't have to walk on thin ice like Emperor Zhao and Emperor Jing."

Yuan Zhao Tianzi was silent for a moment, and then looked up at Li Xin.

"Teacher, I want to ask you a question."

The Marquis of Jing'an's face was calm.

"Your Majesty asks."

The Son of Heaven took a deep breath, gritted his teeth and said, "The teacher fought with the four auxiliary ministers a few days ago, is it to fight for power, or to help me and pro-government?" ”

Hearing this question, the Marquis of Jing'an was stunned at first, and then smiled dumbly.

"If Your Majesty is pro-government, whether it is Shangshutai or the Dadu Governor's Mansion, or the power of the Gyeonggi Forbidden Army, all of them will be collected in Weiyang Palace, how can the ministers fight for power? Is it possible to use the forbidden army to create a rebellion? ”

"Don't forget, there is also a Hou Jingde in the left camp of the forbidden army."

As he spoke, Li Xin looked back at the Son of Heaven and smiled: "Your Majesty will have this idea, most likely the four old men entered the palace and said something to Your Majesty." ”

Li Xin wanted Yuan Zhao Tianzi to be in power, and he didn't have the intention of fighting for power, at most, he wanted to maintain the right battalion of his forbidden army and complete the entrustment of his old friend in advance.

But in that court meeting, Yuan Zhao Tianzi did not completely stand on his side, so that the success failed.

The Son of Heaven frowned and thought about it, and also figured out the key to it.

If he succeeds in pro-government, the forbidden army, including the three guards in the capital, can almost have the final say, and Li Xin is not the fifth auxiliary minister, so after he pro-government, unless he authorizes Li Xin, Li Xin will not be able to dictate power.

He was fooled by the old man's sentence "Four auxiliary ministers are better than one".

Thinking of this, Yuan Zhao Tianzi let out a long breath, took two steps back, and looked deeply at Li Xin.

"I've disappointed my teacher..."

Marquis Jing'an shook his head.

"No matter what, it is His Majesty's own decision, and the minister has nothing to say."

Speaking of which, Li Xin took his leave.

"Your Majesty, the Yuwen Zhao Department in the Northern Xinjiang has annexed the Futu Department, and it is rapidly growing, if it is not restricted, it will become a big disaster in the North in five years."

"If possible, the imperial court should try to let the Yunzhou army and the Zhenbei army continue to harass the Yuwen Zhao army, so that the northern frontier of the Great Jin Dynasty can be stable for a long time."

After saying this, the Marquis of Jing'an slowly retreated, turned around and walked towards his carriage.
