incomprehensible

Chapter 127

Jin Linyuan was eating porridge, and when Ye Xuehuan said this, he couldn't help but feel happy, his waist straightened instantly, and he looked at the old lady eagerly, his eyes were shining brightly, and he almost stretched out his tail Come and shake.

Only then did the old master come to his senses, and scolded angrily: "You bastard, you already planned on my old man, right?"

Ye Xuehuanquan accepted it as a default, and said with a light smile: "Let my family Jinlin study with those bastards from Taixue Institute, wouldn't it slow down his progress. The sooner he finishes his studies, the sooner I can take him to the army."

Yin Jianzhi was a little hesitant. Ye Xuehuan had a delicate relationship with the new emperor, and calling him a vassal was already the greatest possible compromise. If Jinlin were to stay in the Taixue Academy, it would inevitably be a bit of a traitor, which would really damage his prestige; what's more Jin Lin had openly resisted the decree, Ye Xuehuan would definitely not keep him in Danlu.

However, the sons of princes and marquises must enter the Taixue Institute. This is a rule that has been established since the beginning of the dynasty; if Ye Xuehuan sets this precedent, all families will follow suit in the future. arrived.

If you agree to Ye Xuehuan at this time and follow him back to Qianming City to teach Jinlin alone, it will undoubtedly open up an unprecedented privilege for Jinlin, and it will also imperceptibly add to the game between Ye Xuehuan and Ye Xuequan. A chip.

The old lady Fu has been upright and upright all his life, and has never formed a party for personal gain, let alone opened up privileges for anyone.In order to prevent his family relatives from causing unnecessary nepotism, he never even married a wife and had children. He worked hard for decades, and exchanged his life of loneliness for a piece of peace.

He is not a personal student who has no chance to take over the mantle, but the smart ones can't help but have a lot of eyes, and the upright and pure ones lack a little aura, which is always unsatisfactory; Lin Lao finally found a Lan Qi who was satisfied in all aspects, but ended up dismal.

In terms of emotion alone, the old matriarch is of course willing to continue to teach Jinlin, go to Qianming City to spend his old age in peace, and Lan Qi will give him retirement, why not do it; but as the former matriarch, he really can't convince himself to break the Principles that have been upheld for many years.

"Teacher, don't worry, I didn't set this precedent."

Seemingly aware of his hesitation, Ye Xuehuan said flatly: "Master, could it be that he forgot that Si Xing is now in the palace and is being raised by the emperor himself."

Yin Jianzhi was startled suddenly.

Ye Xuehuan sneered and said, "He wants to centralize power and promote the New Deal, and he has to work hard on everything. He is already weak, but he is about to stand up. How many years can he do it himself?"

"Even if he selects a concubine tomorrow and gives birth to the emperor's heir next year, can he wait for the day when the heir grows up? Why not find a ready-made emperor's younger brother."

Speaking of this, Ye Xuehuan seemed to have thought of something, and his expression was ironic, "What's more, he once said back then that he would never marry for life, I don't think it was a joke."

Lan Qi interrupted suddenly: "I also remember that he wanted to reform Yushitai and take back the Golden Word Sword."

These few things seemed to be unrelated, but Yin Jianzhi heard the implication, and a cold sweat suddenly broke out behind his back.

"So..." Ye Xuehuan said with a smile, "This new majesty will definitely do countless deviant acts in the future. I don't know how many rules of the ancestors will be broken by him. Why use my Jinlin as a special case?"

Yin Jianzhi was dumbfounded, and finally understood the deepest reason why Ye Xuehuan allowed Ye Xuequan to sit on the throne.

Since the Qinghua palace change, the royal family has always wanted to destroy the old and establish the new, but after all, only one Liu family was uprooted, and the national treasury was empty after the war, with more energy than energy.It was originally a long-term plan, but Ye Xuequan's sudden usurpation completely dismantled and reorganized the entire situation. Fear and hatred were concentrated on him alone. opportunity for reform.

Ye Xuehuan once suspected that this was the purpose of his usurping the throne, but the sacrifice was too great, and all his brothers were ruthlessly trampled under their feet. Ye Xuehuan couldn't tolerate that side.

He used to be very active in the reform, and even took the lead in abolishing the Northwest Governor of his fief with great fanfare, but now he has decided to quit.

——Ye Xuequan himself wants to sit on the throne by any means, so let him solve the various problems that the emperor must face, let him carry out his new policy step by step, and never get the slightest help from Ye Xuehuan .

Not only did he not help himself, but Ye Xuehuan also hinted that other dignitaries would stand on the sidelines together; once Jin Lin obtained the privilege of not entering the Imperial College, the northern and southern prefectures with the same status and treatment as the Rong Mansion, and even the newly opened West Mansion, could refuse Send his son to Danlu.These frontier kings who hold heavy troops and dominate one side will stand on the sidelines hand in hand, completely isolating the emperor.

——Since Ye Xuequan chose brotherhood first, then Ye Xuehuan wanted him to be a real loner.

This is Prince Rong's biggest and most ruthless revenge on the new emperor.

As long as Yin Jianzhi agrees to go to Qianming City and continue to teach Jinlin, then unless Ye Xuequan turns his back on him and explicitly asks Jinlin to stay as a pledge, he will have no reason to keep Jinlin on the surface.And if he turns his back on him, it's hard to guarantee that Ye Xuehuan won't be destroyed.

Ye Xuehuan used the old master as a bargaining chip to force Ye Xuequan to compromise.

It is true that he hopes that Jin Lin will learn as soon as possible, it is true that he wants to help Lan Qi provide for this teacher who has been a teacher for a day and a father for life, it is true that he wants to take revenge and threaten Ye Xuequan.

Having figured this out, although the old matriarch was quite annoyed, he was more deeply helpless.He has a clear conscience all his life, but he owes too much to Lan Qi alone, and he really can't let go of this ill-fated student.

Seeing that the old lady was still hesitating, Lan Qi quietly reached out and patted Jinlin's leg under the table calmly.

Jinlin immediately understood, thought for a while, and suddenly said: "Excuse me, Taifu, how does the new Taifu Sun compare to my father?"

Yin Jianzhi looked at him with a complicated expression, understood the meaning behind his words, and commented truthfully: "In terms of spirituality and comprehension, he is naturally inferior to Xiaolan."

Jin Lin smiled and said: "Jin Lin has no intention of belittling Taifu Sun, but since there is already a good teacher like Daddy by his side, it is meaningless to go to the Taixue Academy. It's just that Daddy is always occupied by his father, so Jinlin is bold and wants to stay with him again." The Taifu listens to the instruction at his knees."

The expression on Yin Jianzhi's face suddenly changed, and he deeply felt that this dignified and dignified son of the Rong family had already been misled by his two parents who were full of honey and swords. .

Even in order to bring this little prince back on track, he must go to Qianming City with him.

Although Ye Xuehuan couldn't escape the behavior of a child of the royal family, and it was inevitable that he would take advantage of him, but in the end he never failed.

"...That's all."

Yin Jianzhi sighed as if admitting defeat, "Back then you two bastards cheated on me together, and now you have to bring a younger one to cheat on me together... I'm in your hands."

Hearing him let go, both Ye Xuehuan and Lan Qi were obviously relieved, and Jin Lin was even more delighted, his eyes curled up with a smile: "Thank you, Taifu!"

Ye Xuehuan reprimanded falsely: "What are you calling Tai Tuo, you have more birth points."

Yin Jianzhi knew that nothing was good when he saw his father and son winking, and sure enough, Jin Lin changed his voice and shouted in his heart: "Grandpa."

Yin Jianzhi: "..."

Knowing that Ye Xuehuan was trying to take advantage of him, but his knees were empty. Although he was full of peaches and plums, he had never enjoyed the real family happiness. Hearing such a "grandfather", his nose felt a little sore.

He dedicated his whole life to the Taixue Institute, and now that he has finally resigned, he should be able to be selfish for a while.

"I'm getting older, so I won't be traveling with you if it's inconvenient." He shook his head, with a look of melancholy in his eyes, "I'll be leaving in a few days."

He has been in the Taixue Institute for decades, but now he is about to leave, not to mention the long journey back and forth, and most of them will end up in the northwest. He still has some regrets and nostalgia in his heart.

There are no relatives in my hometown and no old friends in the capital. Fortunately, there is a filial student, so I won't be wandering in my old age.

Ye Xuehuan nodded and said, "I will arrange it myself. Don't worry, teacher. If you need anything in Qianming City, you can just talk to Gao Qian."

"I don't live in your palace." Yin Jianzhi glanced at the overlapping palms of the two of them, "It's an eyesore."

Ye Xuehuan suppressed a smile and replied: "Yes, I will prepare a mansion for the teacher, and I will make the teacher live comfortably."

Yin Jianzhi was satisfied with this, and got up to leave.Remembering that I came here to ask about Ye Xuehuan's future plans, but in the end he sold himself, I am quite dumbfounded.

Ye Xuehuan pulled Lan Qiyu up to see him off, but Yin Jianzhi raised his hand to stop her, "Be careful...I'll be waiting for you in Qianming City."

After seeing off the old matriarch, Jinlin planted her head on Ye Xuehuan's chest, and said happily, "Thank you, Father."

Ye Xuehuan smiled and said, "The little brat naturally needs to be raised by my side to be at ease."

This was what Nangong Yayu said back then, but she is no longer here.Although Ye Xuequan was not the victim, it was really cruel that she never let her see her only son again before she died.

Ye Xuehuan felt pity in his heart, and was thinking about taking time to go to worship in a few days, when Lan Qi hummed: "When did you make your mind on the teacher?"

Ye Xuehuan calmed down, snorted and said, "I didn't like Sun Pingkang at all. When I was a teacher, I always had a dead face. Now that I am a tutor, it must be even more boring. My son How can you be wronged by him."

Lan Qi squinted at him and said nothing, but Ye Xuehuan had something to say: "What's more, when you and I get married in the future, there must always be someone sitting in the high hall."

Lan Qi hummed noncommittally, and Ye Xuehuan continued to make up nonsense: "I think Mo Ran will not want to send Xiaomi to the Taixue Academy in the future, so he might as well send him to Qianming City to hand over to the Taifu, and return it to the Taifu by the way." She can be a child bride for our son."

Jin Lin blushed: "Really?"

"Of course not." Lan Qi rapped his forehead lightly with his fingers, "I'll think about this kind of thing after you can beat my father to the ground."

The two of them were naturally joking, they didn't take the children's play seriously at all, but they didn't know that Jinlin was secretly making up his mind that he needed to practice martial arts diligently in the future, and beat the newly promoted Yanbei King to the ground as soon as possible.

After the joke was over, Lan Qi said seriously, "Teacher has been lonely all his life, we must honor him well."

"That's natural."

Ye Xuehuan picked him up on his lap, and kissed him hard in front of Jin Lin, "How can I wrong my old father-in-law."

Just as I was talking, my servants came to report, and the left and right sides came to visit together.

Jinlin consciously evaded, but Ye Xuehuan didn't bother to go to the front hall to greet him, and let someone directly lead him to the flower hall, without even putting Lan Qi down, and asked meaningfully: "Can you sleep for a while?"

Lan Qi smiled knowingly, leaned on his shoulder and said lazily: "Yes."

They have already been familiar with this kind of drama.

So when Lu Qiuyan and Feng Yizheng came in side by side, Lan Qi was wrapped in a thin blanket in Ye Xuehuan's arms, drowsy, and Ye Xuehuan patted him on the back, motioning them to sit down beside the desk. , his face was full of hypocritical apologies, and he said softly: "My Lan'er is just recovering from an injury, and she is not in good spirits. Let me make a long story short."

Lu Qiuyan sat down solemnly without changing his face or squinting; Feng Yizheng was embarrassed, not because he couldn't see the eyes full of me and me, but Ye Xuehuan obviously put on an unwelcoming posture.

He was originally under Ye Xuehuan's command, and it was Ye Xuehuan who helped him to take the position of left minister.The real master "dead", between Ye Xueyuan and Ye Xuequan, he can choose anyone, and he has no obligation to take risks to save others like Lu Yao; but when Ye Xuehuan came back from the dead, his position became subtle .

——After Ye Xuehuan intends to let go of the imperial power and retreat to the northwest, should he continue to serve as a check and balance point between the emperor and the Rong Mansion, and be loyal to Ye Xuehuan, or should he simply be a "Left Prime Minister" in the true sense and be loyal to Ye Xuehuan? Ye Xuequan?

Ye Xuehuan's attitude was unclear, so he felt like he was sitting on pins and needles.

Lu Qiuyan remained calm, and laid out the stacks of folders in his hands one by one in front of Ye Xuehuan, "This is the new policy that His Majesty will push down this year, please have a look at it, Your Majesty."

"What does Lu Xiang mean by this?" Ye Xuehuan sneered, "It is agreed that I will recuperate behind closed doors, why are you asking me these things?"

Feng Yizheng pursed his lips and remained silent, but Lu Qiuyan didn't seem to feel Ye Xuehuan's hidden temptation and hostility, and said frankly: "Land law, tax law, etiquette law, household registration, and official system were all established by the prince during the Yuanlong period. , Naturally, the prince should have a look."

Ye Xuehuan twitched the corners of his mouth, thinking that this person is really powerful, and he was able to say "Yuanlong Years" so lightly, as if it had been a long time ago, and it was not just a few months ago. Replaced hard and bloody.

But Lu Qiuyan is such a person who puts his political ambition above all else, and he will be loyal to whoever gives him room to display it. The typical thing is to care about the world and not the king.During the Qinghua period, although he was promoted by the empress of Chu and Ye Xuehuan all the way to the left, he was not active towards Emperor Heng, who was seeking stability in the mean, and could only be said to abide by his duties; Reform, he gradually revealed a radical style.

He was originally from the Ministry of Criminal Justice, he is extremely calm and rational, he can always put reason and law above human feelings, and has very unique insights into the rule of law, bureaucracy, people's livelihood and other aspects. He is indeed an excellent candidate to assist the world. Even the Empress of Chu looked at him favorably.

These new policies were only put on the agenda after Ye Xueyuan returned from the Western Expedition. In just over a year, he was able to come up with a draft. It is not just a matter of talent and efficiency, but also shows that he has a mature heart idea.

Although Ye Xueyuan asked for reforms, it was always Ye Xuequan who drafted and implemented them together with him.

Perhaps for him, Ye Xuequan's rule is the era he likes to see the most, when he feels like a fish in water.

——What's more, perhaps as early as the time of Empress Chu, he had already confirmed the person who would be loyal to him in the end.

"This king also wants to ask Prime Minister Lu." Ye Xuehuan raised his eyes, the phoenix eyes were full of sharpness, "When His Majesty wanted to usurp the throne, did you know?"

Although usurping the throne is a fact, after all, winners and losers, it would be disrespectful to mention it now, but Ye Xuehuan did not shy away from it in the slightest.

Lu Qiuyan nodded calmly: "I know."

Ye Xuehuan asked again: "Did you know when he usurped the throne?"

Lu Qiuyan replied: "I know."

Feng Yizheng's face turned pale, but Ye Xuehuan actually laughed: "Then I say that Lu Xiang is Yuan Longli's traitor...isn't it an exaggeration?"

Lu Qiuyan said in a deep voice: "I just choose a tree to live in, and your majesty is just a capable person. No matter your majesty or the minister, they are worthy of the people of the world, and worthy of Yexue's country."

"What a capable person lives here." Ye Xuehuan sneered, "Dare to ask, in Lu Xiang's eyes, who can occupy the throne?"

Lu Qiuyan also looked at him, and said word by word: "Your Majesty has the ability to help everyone."

The voice fell, and the hall was silent.

This was too much to say, and even Lan Qi couldn't help frowning, but Lu Qiuyan seemed to be just stating an objective fact.

The most frightening thing is that Feng Yizheng didn't refute, or even show any surprise, but lowered his head even more, feeling guilty and unwilling, but seemed to agree with Lu Qiuyan's words.

"I have no intention of whitewashing and defending for His Majesty. Your Majesty will explain clearly to the prince himself what needs to be explained."

Lu Qiuyan's voice was light, and his tone was businesslike as if he was reading a booklet in the royal study, "I am just entrusted by His Majesty today to ask the prince for advice on the new policy. The prince has no intention of asking..."

Seeing that the atmosphere was getting more and more tense, Feng Yizheng hurriedly interrupted: "Every new policy here is closely related to the prince, the land tax on the fiefdom, the dispatch of officials, the expenses of the king's food, marriage etiquette, and household registration. Matters related to the transfer..."

He glanced at Lan Qi intentionally or unintentionally, "...the prince should take a look."

The content of the New Deal covers a wide range, but he only picked out these few items, and the implication is not obvious.

——Ye Xuequan sent the two of them here to negotiate terms.

The New Deal has not yet been officially promulgated, so the conditions proposed by Ye Xuehuan at this time can be directly rationalized and legalized in the form of a new bill, giving him the greatest degree of preferential treatment, such as a high degree of autonomy in fiefdoms, independence in land and taxation, and freedom of appointment and removal of officials Wait; even if he wants to give Lan Qi an official household registration, restore his identity, and hold a grand wedding banquet, Ye Xuequan can "fulfill" him.

Power, prestige, freedom, and a partner are indeed what Ye Xuehuan wants in his heart; Ye Xuequan knows him very well, and knows that he will not use this to threaten the center of imperial power, so he puts all these on the table with confidence. in front of him.

Ye Xuehuan was not unwilling to accept his conditions, but this kind of arrogance that he was sure he would accept really annoyed him.

"I know what kind of 'perfection' Lu Xiang has achieved." Ye Xuehuan looked at Feng Yizheng and asked softly, "So what if I don't know Feng Xiang?"

Hearing the title "Feng Xiang", Feng Yizheng couldn't help showing bitterness, hesitated to speak several times, and finally sighed: "What I want is nothing but prosperity and peace, Haiyan and Heqing."

Lu Qiuyan wanted fame, Feng Yizheng wanted stability, and they all clearly believed that Ye Xuehuan could give what they wanted more than anyone else, so they were willing to surrender, and even turned their heads to persuade Ye Xuehuan to compromise.

That's all for Lu Qiuyan, but even Feng Yizheng is like this. Ye Xuehuan was really surprised and uneasy. He didn't know how many chips Ye Xuequan still had in his hand, how many things he had concealed from him, and whether he had already made such a plan for them. Everyone has arranged for the so-called "fulfillment".

Nan Xun wanted to stay away from the imperial power faction, so Ye Xuequan deprived him of his imperial status, removed his imperial surname, and let him leave the royal family completely; Chu Changling wanted to preserve the Chu family, so Ye Xuequan conspired with him to trap and kill Chu Yuezhi, making Chu The family has no leader, so they can only rely on Chu Changyue; Nangong Xiuren wants the Nangong family to let go of the court power, but Ye Xuequan instigates him to kill his father and brother, and he fakes his own death to escape, cutting off the incense of the Nangong family's direct line, which provokes Nangong Xian to expose Nangong The crimes committed by his family forced him to return to his family in Donghai.Even in the future, he can also leave Ye Xueyuan a good talk about the love between the emperor and empress and creating a prosperous world together in the history books.

In terms of fulfillment, Ye Xuequan can indeed make everyone get what they want, but the price is too painful, and only he himself is the beneficiary from the beginning to the end.

Every time he fulfills others, he also fulfills himself step by step.

——He used everyone to the extreme, including Ye Xuehuan and Lan Qi.

Lan Qi looked calm, glanced at the left and right respectively, took out a booklet from the table, and flipped through it at a glance.

When Lu Qiuyan was displaying the booklet earlier, he didn't pay much attention to it, and only after opening it did he realize that he was grabbing the book of the new official system.In addition to the reward and punishment system discussed at that time and the age limit for officials, the post of governor was clearly abolished, and county envoys were set up under each county. The execution of the order, the examination of the morality of officials, and the presentation of duties in June every year, report the situation of each county.

Governors from all over the country return to Danlu to report on their duties in June every year. This new official system will also be officially implemented in June. At that time, all governors will be dismissed from the court to avoid further disturbances.

The governors of the Northeast, along the river and the coast are originally royalists, and Ye Xuequan would not cross the river and tear down the bridges like this, there must be other arrangements; there are no governors in the southwest and northwest, and the remaining governors of Jiangdong and Yinyang have no backers. The abolition of the governor itself There won't be much resistance, but the post of "county envoy" is really intriguing.

On the surface, although he doesn't care about the affairs of the county, he has the responsibility of supervision, and his official rank is even half a step higher than that of the county governor.Ye Xuequan wanted to install his own eyeliner in each county, and he also placed it in the open.It is naturally impossible for the county envoy to report all the dogs and dogs in the camp to the emperor, but this is undoubtedly a sharp sword hanging over everyone's head, reminding everyone to be cautious and self-disciplined at all times. In fact, deterrence is more effective than supervision.

The Bian Wang can appoint and remove the county envoys on his own, but he is not under the supervision of the court. He simply sends individuals to report the situation in the county every year, which is equivalent to re-establishing the relationship between the royal family and the border prefectures, giving greater privileges and higher status. status, but at the same time, they have to be farther away from the court.

The northern and southern prefectures have always been like this, and the newly opened West Mansion has the same standpoint, this one is just for Ye Xuehuan to see.

Not to mention whether the county officials are willing to accept such an emperor's eagle dog, Zhongyang now has a total of 27 counties, and after removing the four border kings' fiefs, where can Ye Xuequan find 23 confidantes who can be sent to the place as eyeliner?Unless he has been cultivating and recruiting his own people all these years, and can hide it from everyone's eyes and ears, at least in a short period of time, the county envoy will not be able to play its due role.

Lan Qi didn't want to care about how to implement the new policy, and didn't express any opinions. After reading it, he put it aside, took the thickest book, and found out that it was the new household registration system.

Ye Xuequan actually planned to re-statistic household registration in the next few years. Nobles, civilians, domestic slaves, Western Regions and overseas businessmen who lived in the center for more than four months every year, and even criminals who were detained or exiled, would all be checked by the household department. Afterwards, identity certificates will be issued, with name, place of origin and date of birth recorded, and special anti-counterfeiting lacquer seals will be printed on them. They must be presented for verification when entering and exiting borders and towns. Lost or damaged certificates need to be reissued in time. Those who forge certificates will be punished as felonies.

If there is a birth or death in the family, it must be reported to the government within seven days to issue an identity certificate for the newborn or revoke the certificate for the deceased.

In addition, there are a series of detailed rules. Lan Qi didn't go through them one by one, but it is clear that this is definitely not a three-year or five-year effort.Sure enough, it finally explained that due to the huge workload, it is planned to try it out in Danlu and the five border gates first, and then gradually promote it to the whole country after the repair is mature.

Taking Zhao Ying's case as an opportunity, Lu Qiuyan had long mentioned that the current household registration system had too many loopholes and wanted to redesign it, but due to the emptiness of the national power after the war, it was never put on the agenda, and now he finally came up with a plan.

This was actually Lu Yao's idea at the beginning. It was first mentioned when discussing the issue of fugitives. In fact, it is similar to the badges used in the army.However, the number of people is so large, it is neither centralized management like the army, nor the awareness of soldiers to obey discipline, so it is difficult to implement at all. It is unexpected that Ye Xuequan has such confidence, ambition and determination, and it will take countless time, financial resources and energy to complete. This is a one-person-one-certificate household registration system.

At this point, Lan Qi had to admire, and also had to admit defeat for Ye Xuehuan.

He didn't read the other books, he sorted out the notebooks, pushed them back in front of Lu Qiuyan, and said in a low voice: "My lord doesn't want to get involved in court affairs any more, I read it for him, and the two of you can see each other. From now on, Rongfu In the future, we will definitely protect the peace of the border and support His Majesty's New Deal. There is only one request, and I hope Prime Minister Lu can convey it to His Majesty."

He looked at Lu Qiuyan, "From now on, none of Bian Wang's sons will enter the Imperial Academy."

Ye Xuehuan didn't open his mouth, as he acquiesced to Lan Qi to speak for him.

Lu Qiuyan narrowed his eyes slightly. If Bian Wang's son did not enter the Taixue Academy, he would have no chance to know the emperor's heir, which is equivalent to breaking ties with the royal family.

Lu Qiuyan was really surprised by Ye Xuehuan's decision to this point; but this is naturally not something he can decide, so he nodded immediately and said: "I will definitely convey it."

Only then did Ye Xuehuan smile and said: "This king has a heavy army in his hands, so he shouldn't be involved in political affairs. It was because of the turmoil in the current situation, but now he doesn't have such worries. From now on, please work together with your majesty, this king Just sit and enjoy the peace and prosperity at Jilei Pass."

These words had the meaning of seeing off guests, Feng Yizheng heard it clearly, and felt bitter in his heart, but he also knew that the friendship between himself and Ye Xuehuan could only go so far.

It wasn't that he was renegade and rebellious, nor was it that Ye Xuehuan was ruthless. It's just that people have their own ambitions, and there is always a position that suits them. It has always been difficult to stick to one goal and never give up.

He was supported by Ye Xuehuan, and it was Ye Xuehuan's chess game at the top of the court, and he was the biggest reliance between the Rongfu and the royal family, but now he just let go.

——Even if the relationship with the emperor is broken, Ye Xuehuan may still subconsciously trust Ye Xuequan, knowing that he will not really hurt himself, and even more believing that he can bring unprecedented prosperity to the Ye Xue family's world, that's why he dared Withdrew gracefully and left.

No matter how angry and disappointed, he was still the Prince Rong who cared about the people of Jiangshan.

For Feng Yizheng, assisting the emperor in carrying out bright policies and creating a prosperous and peaceful world, Haiyan and Heqing is considered to be repaying Ye Xuehuan's kindness.

He simply got up, bowed his head deeply to Ye Xuehuan, and said in a shy voice: "I will definitely live up to the trust of the prince. I will protect the rivers and mountains and benefit the people throughout my life."

Ye Xuehuan silently watched the two of them leave, until they stepped out of the flower hall, then sighed in a low voice: "From now on... cherish each other."
