Chapter 102: Return to Beijing

After talking for a day at Yang Hou's house, most of it was Xu Yan himself, and Yang Hou was listening all the time.

I have to say that the more they communicated, the more Dingyang Hou loved that Xu Yan, and sighed why he didn't give birth to such a good son.

His own son does have a strong reputation among this Great Qin, and even said that he is a dragon and a phoenix among people, but compared with the thoughtful, terrifying and ambitious young man in front of him, he is still inferior by three points.

Perfect? Maybe not, but in his heart, Xu Yan is almost there.

It was because of this that he began to make up his mind to help Xu Yan, even if he would not help during the battle for succession, no matter what kind of problems arose in the future, he would definitely do his best.

Why don't you participate in the battle of many places? It's very simple, he had agreed with Jinshang before that the ten marquis and the three marshals were not allowed to participate in the seizure of any of his sons, but this did not prevent him from liking Xu Yan.

Even because I like it, make some vague statements, it's not impossible.

Such a person, if he really becomes the master of this Great Qin, he will definitely be a hero, and he can lead the entire Great Qin step by step to glory.

As far as he is concerned, why wouldn't he really be stingy with help?

No matter what, the current situation has almost reached the extreme, and the attitude of Yang Hou also made Xu Yan very happy in his heart.

It doesn't matter whether he helped in the battle for the heir or not, the important thing is that just because of today's meeting, he can really enter the layout later.

This is a much stronger opportunity than his brothers.

What's more, he also got a very important message, that is, the existence of their identity cannot participate in the battle for the heir, don't underestimate this news, it can really be said to be one of the most important news.

If you don't get the support of Dingyang Houming, it is naturally not perfect, but everyone can't get it, this is balanced, not only can't you get the support of Dingyang Hou, but even the existence of the top ten marquis and the three marshals can't support it.

I still have the love of Dingyang Hou, or the implicit support, this is already an opportunity, okay?

What's more, Dingyang Hou also said that after the battle for the heir really begins, he will let his son Luo Xiaohan participate in his personal capacity, which is also a very powerful help for Xu Yan, okay?

It's just that at this point, Xu Yan is excited, but he is still a little hesitant, after all, Luo Xiaohan is an absolute genius, but many times he is still a little childish in doing things, if he is not tempered, he will definitely not be able to adapt to the battlefield of the real battle for succession.

But what he can think of, then Yang Hou will definitely not be unexpected, since he said this, he naturally has his own ability and plan, and these are not his worries.

A day later, Xu Yan set off again and entered the capital and other places in the capital by teleportation array.

When he saw the landmark building in the capital, the whole person began to sigh boundlessly.

After three years, he finally had the opportunity to come back, leaving the palace at the age of fifteen, so that later, he recalled the peace and feeling in the palace again and again, and thought about the so-called bloody wind and rain in the past three years, I have to say that in the two lifetimes, this added up to six years of growth, which was much more than any other time before him.

Especially in the past three years, it can almost be said that he has completely formed a huge transformation, Xu Yan does not know whether this transformation is good or bad in the end, but he knows very clearly that this is a kind of growth, a kind of growth that you must experience whether you want to or not.

Thinking that it would take him two lifetimes to figure out these things, well, Xu Yan's heart was also a little helpless.

However, it's okay now, at least, I have completed this transformation, no matter whether it is a good relief and growth for me later, this is a good thing.

"After six years, I didn't expect me to come back in such a way. Looking at the tranquility in front of him, Meng Zhao said with great emotion.

When he joined the army, he walked out of the capital, and six years allowed him to adapt to the bloody and terrifying battlefield step by step.

From a proud heir of the Meng family, he was directly beaten back to his original form, and climbed up step by step, even if there were many Meng family members working hard, but his growth was not much less than Xu Yan.

It can even be said that in terms of battlefield, his experience, his city battles are much more than people like Xu Yan, many returns, and he still returns in such a state, which is indeed not easy.

For those who are called, the battlefield may indeed be their destination, but it is not all they have.

What they have always paid attention to in their family is dedication, and it is difficult for them to dedicate so much to the family, and they still have to dedicate themselves like this? Indeed, he is the so-called patriarch heir, but does the patriarch of the Meng family really have strong power?

No, at most, it can only be regarded as a spokesperson for the Meng family, and the real rulers are the old men who have been hiding behind the scenes.

The so-called Mongol Presbyterian Church.

Under such circumstances, after many things have become clear, the calling actually wants to live for himself once.

Or to be able to do what he wants to do, before, he couldn't see hope, but the appearance of Xu Yan made him see the dawn of everything.

He knew very well that after returning to the family, he would definitely face most of the opposition, and even needed to fight on his own before he could continue to assist Xu Yan.

However, he was not afraid, for no one was a fool who knew where he, the so-called general of the Praetorian Guard, came from, and if he did make a mistake, he would suffer the wrath of the present.

If it is said that before, some emperors, the Meng family did not say that they didn't care, but they didn't take it too seriously, this is not impossible.

After all, where there is a strong master, there is a weak master.

However, what kind of great talent is it now? How can it be that his Meng family can resist?

Say that you are the so-called first family of the military system, you are the first family of the military system, but if you are not, overnight, your family will be directly destroyed.

The families who followed Taizu to fight the world back then have gone, and even now, it is not that kind of family has not been destroyed.

There will be no softness at all.

"I'm going to go back to the family first, it will take about half a month to deal with these things, and after half a month, it is estimated that your reward should also end, and when the time comes, I will go straight to your palace." Meng Zhao bowed his hand to Xu Yan.

No matter what, how did he look at the Xu Yan in front of him, but now, the fact that Xu Yan is his master is very clear.

He has made up his mind to follow his call, and there will be no regrets and no variables, if he has the ability, he will bring more people into the palace, if he is not capable, as long as he is not dead, he will definitely enter Xu Yan's command.

At this point, Xu Yan knew very well in his heart that in the same way, he didn't need to show loyalty or anything when he was called.

Xu Yan nodded, he knew very well what the other party was thinking, but he couldn't interfere in this matter, and in the end, it was the only way.

No matter what kind of situation he will have, in fact, to put it bluntly, whether it is his subordinates or brothers, they all have their own lives, their own things, some things, Xu Yan can't interfere and can't do it, naturally, that's the only way.

"Young master, what about us?" After seeing that he was called away, Li Xuan said very seriously.

No matter what, he needs to be by Xu Yan's side forever, Zong Wei, if he doesn't even have this bit of awareness, then he is not qualified to become Zong Wei.

"Back to the palace, now I am still a prince who has not left the cabinet, and when everything is settled, we will have a real home. Xu Yan said with a wry smile.

It stands to reason that the entire Great Qin, the truly most luxurious, will always be the imperial palace.

After all, this is the center of power in the entire Great Qin, and it is also the truly most honorable person who can live in it.

However, Xu Yan never felt that it was like a home, because, for the prince, such a thing as home was already a huge luxury in itself.

Only when you really open up the palace can you be regarded as a real home.

Otherwise, for example, a person like Xu Yan who does not have a concubine, who follows behind him every day is either a group of eunuchs and palace maids or Zongwei, and there is really no one in a huge mansion, how can he experience the feeling of a home?

Thinking of this, Xu Yan had even begun to think about living on earth.

Although he was an otaku at that time, he had parents, relatives and friends, and when his sister returned home, he really realized what it meant to be happy and happy.

It's a pity that it was already a matter of the previous life, and now even if you want to experience it once, it is impossible to believe.

No matter how much the father pampers himself, he is still the father, not the father.

He is the monarch of Great Qin first, and then the father of these princes, naturally, there are many things, even his own father and emperor can't do anything, who makes them royal people?

The joy of family, which in itself is a real extravagant act for the royal children.

The ruthlessness of the emperor often comes from the so-called helplessness, and if it is really possible, who wants to show the ruthless side in such a situation? Only the truly ruthless can understand some of these things.

After being outside for a long time, Xu Yan has seen a lot and understood a lot, and naturally, he has some longing for the father who dotes on him.

Is that really the life he wants? Actually, Xu Yan really doesn't know, but he knows very well that he can't live a life in a mess, otherwise, he will never know the answer.

The Imperial Palace, which is an absolute forbidden place for ordinary people, is unimpeded in front of Xu Yan.

The countless guards and eunuchs in the entire palace didn't know what kind of smile to put on their faces when they saw that the little devil had finally returned.

You must know that the Seventh Highness of the year had a very great reputation in this palace.

Of course, this is not a so-called good reputation, and a good reputation is not the turn of this kid.

He is the only one who knows very clearly in his heart what will be affected by the occurrence of such a thing.

Similarly, Xu Yan's entry can be regarded as the real order, and all the guards set off turbulent waves in their hearts.

I don't know when, this Seventh Highness, who only knew how to play tricks and pranks back then, has also grown up.

Even if it's just walking forward, it gives people the feeling that they don't have the innocence they had before, but on the contrary, the majesty between the gestures is fully displayed, as if they were born with the so-called superior, giving people a very powerful, but not exposed.

"I thought that His Royal Highness the Seventh would have a good show when he came back this time, but now it seems that His Royal Highness the Seventh has really grown a lot, and it seems that the palace in the future will be much calmer. One of the guards said teasingly.

Indeed, without the palace of the Seventh Highness, it is much more deserted than before.

Later, in the opening of the palace, his seventh highness will rarely return to this palace because he has no concubine, and they, the guards, naturally know that it is deserted.

It's just that such words, that is, they say it in private, on the surface, no one dares to say such a thing, don't die?

The Palace of Cultivating the Heart, this place where Xu Yan always broke in, and now, there is no prohibition on him.

When he began to step in, several guards didn't see it at all, and when he felt this scene, Xu Yan's heart began to be secretly frightened.

You must know that even if you are a prince, there is still a difference, and there are only six princes who have left the palace.

Among them, the eldest brother has always been in the upper echelons of the empire, not to mention the proton, among all the brothers now, they can enter this heart cultivation hall without any hindrance, and only one of them can enter at will.

There's a lot of way to do that.

In the entire Great Qin, the prince is divided into two levels and four ranks, the sixth and seventh crowned kings are the county kings, and the eight or nine crowns are the princes.

One crown is mentioned one day at a time, and the rumored nine-crown champion is an existence that has rarely appeared in the entire history of Great Qin.

That's hereditary, and the number of princes is much less.

Ordinary princes, if they don't have a very good record, but meet the requirements, at most one six-crown champion will reach the top.

The so-called fiefdom was nominally a county, but it was only the size of a county.

Those who have made great contributions can directly reward the seven crowned county kings, and the fiefs are important counties in the entire Great Qin.

As for the two levels of the prince, the one who was sealed out of the cabinet is almost equivalent to nothing.

There is no precedent.

Today's brothers, except for the sixth brother and the third brother, are all six-crown champions, and the seven-crown champions of the third brother have only been crowned recently.

I just came back and have this honor, what does that mean, it's already very revealing, okay?

It's not just my father's love that can be successful.

You must know that the place of Yangxin Hall is a really important place for conversation in the court, and many important ministers in the court have discrepancies, and the backyard of the palace is completely two different concepts.

Vaguely, Xu Yan knew a lot of things.

Indeed, the battle for the succession of one's own father, that is, the current saint, nominally cannot take sides.

However, no matter what, as the emperor of the past and the present, his father's influence is far beyond his imagination.

If he really likes which son he likes, he will give some suggestions or orders vaguely, even if it is a place beyond the imperial power such as the head office, he can't disobey orders.

But in any empire that goes uphill, the imperial power is slightly greater than the power of the clan.

On the contrary, in any declining empire, the power of the clan will inevitably override the imperial power.

At various times, the two sides have calmed down or balanced them.

But today's Great Qin, the power of the imperial power is much higher than that of the Zongfu, how can an emperor in the past and present be imagined by ordinary emperors?

"If I am despicable, and Ling's father and emperor decide me to be the prince, it is estimated that this matter will be solved very easily. Xu Yan knew that if this kind of thing was really implemented, it would not be impossible.

After all, my father's love for him is obvious to all, and if such a situation happens, it is reasonable.

However, he is not ready to do this, the reason is very simple, if he can't get real training, even if he really does it in that position, he is just a marionette, what's the use?

The battle for the heir does sound a little disregarded for family affection, but the benefits are still quite obvious, right?

Not only can you cultivate the ability of a future heir, but also make them gradually familiar with the power and balance of the court.

When he actually ascends the throne, this Great Qin will certainly be weak for a while, but it is much better than other empires.

And throughout the ages, although not every emperor of Great Qin was a Ming monarch, there was not a single one who was mediocre to a certain extent.

This is the benefit of the battle for succession.

It is more appropriate to say that the battle of many places has created the current Great Qin, and the Great Qin has not disappeared in the traces of history.

Xu Yan knew and recognized this very well in his heart, so he naturally would not ask to go through the back door at such a time.

"You're back?" a familiar voice emerged from inside the Heart Cultivation Temple.

Xu Yan's nose was a little sour at that moment.

Anyway, although I haven't received my mother's love since I was a child, I definitely got a lot of father's love.

The man inside has not had much time left, at least among the infant monks, and he is the shortest-lived.

Looking back now, he really didn't know how to face this old man.

Similarly, it is also the first emperor of this Great Qin.
