Qin Jin didn't care whether Cui Jian was willing or not, he rushed forward and couldn't help but hug him again, and then gently rubbed his back, and after a long time, this breath was even.

"The old minister should take care of his body, don't pay attention to those rumors, Qin Jin asked himself about the heart of the Tang Dynasty, the sun and the moon can be expressed!"

As he spoke, Qin Jin could clearly feel that Cui Jian was struggling hard, obviously not wanting him to support him, as if he had suffered great humiliation after being supported by Qin Jin. However, Cui Jian is a frail old man after all, how can he compete for Qin Jin, who is bloodless and strong?

After struggling for a while, Cui Lian finally gave up, and said helplessly:

"People are doing it, the sky is watching, what have you done in Qin Jin, you can hide it from the eyes and ears of the world, but you can't hide it from the old man, even if you can hide it from the old man, you can't hide it from God! Let go! The old man is ashamed to be with you!"

Cui Jian tore his face, but Qin Jin still refused to let go, he knew that Cui Jian was complaining with the last strength of his life, although it was a futile accusation, but it had to be done.

Now that this layer of window paper has been pierced, Qin Jin doesn't plan to pretend to be confused anymore.

"If the Son of Heaven can clarify politics and Ze is the people, Qin Jin would rather be relieved and return to the field, never ask about the government and politics, and be an idler who lives in the mountains and rivers all day long!"

Cui Jian sneered weakly twice, and asked rhetorically:

"The righteousness of what he said is awe-inspiring, and the old man has never seen such a brazen person! Tell me, how can you clarify politics? Ze has been ruled by the people? If you can seize power with martial arts, can you govern with martial arts? Is this naïve, or is it arrogant and unashamed?"

Qin Jin naturally has his confidence when he says these words, after Xia Yuanji rectified the political affairs hall and the government and the opposition, it only took more than a month to work hard, and the atmosphere was new, and the office efficiency of officials was increased by more than ten times. Just seven days ago, Xia Yuanji began to mobilize officials at all levels of various ministries and began a thorough and systematic campaign to clear debts. That is, it is necessary to deal with the backlog of government affairs and even all kinds of cases since the first year of Germany, within two or three months.

At present, the work of settling arrears is progressing fairly smoothly, and the enthusiasm of the officials is also very high; after all, the settlement of arrears is linked to performance appraisal, and a good errand can be added to the performance appraisal book at the end of the year. Seeing that it is about to reach the end of the year to evaluate the officials, anyone who has some ideas will be full of enthusiasm to devote themselves to their own work.

In addition, in order to help the people whose families were ruined or whose livelihoods were miserable in the disaster, the government hall not only simply used the establishment of private enterprises as a means to collect the displaced people, but also used work for relief in many places, which solved the livelihood problem of the displaced people on the one hand, and at the same time reasonably reduced the burden of forced labor, without delaying the progress of various important projects.

Qin Jin almost didn't pause to tell about this series of changes, and Cui Jian was a little dazed when he heard it, yes, he was indeed a little dazed.

In Cui Lian's inherent impression, Qin Jin was just a general who was good at leading troops to fight, although this person was born as a scholar in the imperial examination, but since he became famous, he had been rolling in the military camp and on the battlefield, how could he have experience in governing government? But after listening to these accounts, even if he no longer wanted to admit it, Cui Jian also felt that if everything was true, it was really a good thing for the benefit of the country and the people.

However, all kinds of benefits will also become penniless when they are opposed to orthodoxy. Even if Qin Jin did a thousand or ten thousand good things that were beneficial to the court and the people, under the premise of violating orthodoxy, all of them were wrong and must not be forgiven!

"Help the old man go back, the old man is tired!"

There is powerlessness and disappointment in this sentence, Qin Jin can't see anger in Cui Lian's body, but this powerlessness and disappointment are even more unbearable.

However, it was just that he couldn't bear to see it, and other than that, Qin Jin wouldn't do anything for this unbearable sight.

In the main hall of Cui's Mansion, the charcoal fire in the brazier was crackling, Xia Yuanji was holding the steaming tea soup, enjoying the comfort brought by the hot tea soup one bite after another. The door of the hall was suddenly pushed open from the outside, and even with the screen blocking it, the cold still hit the face.

Xia Yuanji couldn't help but shudder, and under the stimulation of the sudden heat and cold, he sneezed fiercely again, and when he saw clearly that Qin Jin was back with Cui Lian in his arms, he bowed and said:

"Cui Xianggong's body is weak, and he can't stand the cold for a long time, so it's still convenient to speak in the hall......"

Cui Jian said coldly and hardly:

"Ambitions are not the same, and the old man is not conspiratory!"

With a smile on his face, Xia Yuanji was a little embarrassed, so he took a big sip of tea soup. Recently, it is popular in Beijing to drink loose tea brewed with water, and he also followed the trend to learn how to drink it for two days, but finally felt that it was tasteless outside of bitterness, and finally changed back to the method of boiling tea with more spices.

The peppery flavor and fresh ginger flavor are simply the best thing in heaven on earth......

Qin Jin also knew that he and Cui Jian had nothing to say, and there was no need for today's conversation to continue, so he bowed down and said:

"The old minister takes care of his health, Qin Jin will come to visit ...... another day"

Without waiting for him to finish speaking, Cui Lian threw down another sentence:

"No need, there is no need for you and me to see you again in this life!"

The conversation between the two frightened Xia Yuanji, when he went out, he was fine, why did he become like this as soon as he came back? What did Qin Jin and Cui Jian say outside, causing the two of them to have a big estrangement between the two of them? Of course, the deeper the contradiction between Qin Jin and Cui Lian, Xia Yuanji was very happy to see, so that it would be impossible for Cui Lian to enter the political affairs hall, and naturally no one would be able to challenge his status in the political affairs hall.

Seeing Qin Jin turn around and leave, Xia Yuanji also put down the tea bowl in his hand, scribbled at Cui Lian, and followed suit.

When the hall was quiet, Cui Lian spat at Xia Yuanji's back, and the four words shameless man wandered around his mouth, but he couldn't say it after all.

Qin Jin and Xia Yuanji returned to the political hall in the same car, and on the way, Xia Yuanji couldn't help but ask Cui Lian why he turned his face. Qin Jindao did not hide it, only said that Cui Jian hoped that the Son of Heaven or the crown prince would return to power, which had a fundamental contradiction with what they were going to do now, and it was impossible to reconcile.

Of course, Xia Yuanji didn't want to return the expanded power of the political hall to the crippled emperor, in fact, he thought from the bottom of his heart that even if the people of the Li family got the power, they would never be able to do better than Qin Jin. Just looking at the new atmosphere in the court in front of him, it has not been seen in twenty or thirty years.

Thinking of these, Xia Yuanji narrowed his eyes, and his thoughts seemed to fly to the Kaiyuan period more than 20 years ago, when the Son of Heaven was full of vigor and dedication, and the courtiers also made great efforts to become famous and established.

Xia Yuanji is not a stupid person, he also has his own judgment on the chaos in the last years of Tianbao, if it were not for the fact that the Son of Heaven was obsessed with pleasure and superstitious in power schemes, and ignored the fundamental road of governance, how could a small person like An Lushan, who could not be put on the table, come out to show off his might? In his opinion, this power was not taken away by Qin Jin intentionally, but the incompetence of the Li family, and it was just lost, and it happened to fall on the other most suitable person, this person is Qin Jin!

As soon as he thought of this, Xia Yuanji's body couldn't help but feel for a while, and the clouds in his heart were stimulated by some kind of thought.

"Seeing that the imperial court has improved, if it is returned to the princes and grandchildren of the Li family, I am afraid that it will be chaotic again...... Even if Doctor Qin doesn't think about himself and thinks for the people of the world, he can't have this thought!"

Xia Yuanji's words are not compliments, seven or eight percent of them are from sincerity, and the other two or three layers are out of self-interest considerations, he and Qin Jin are now grasshoppers tied to a rope, and they are both prosperous and vulnerable, so of course they don't want to see Qin Jin hand over power.

Qin Jin only smiled slightly, but didn't say anything.

At this point, it is pointless to discuss these issues, and what makes him even more restless is how to regain the power that has been dispersed at the local level from the central government. Of course, this is a systematic and complex problem, which requires a long period of gradual progress to see results, and it is absolutely impossible to solve all problems once and for all through the appointment and dismissal of several officials.

At present, all he can do is to temporarily balance or break the local power structure through the appointment and dismissal of officials, so as to achieve the purpose of co-opting or suppressing. In short, it is necessary that all local powers be supervised and checked, and that the situation of combining military, government, and financial power will no longer exist, as in the past.

The carriage arrived at the government hall, the fifth Qi waited outside early, since the fight into the government hall, the young prime minister is like an iron beating, almost day and night in the government hall guard, tired to find a place to squint for a while, hungry only in the kitchen of the government hall to find some food, the servants in the house several times at the order of the lady of the family to urge him to go back, he also promised to come down and ignore it.

For the fifth Qi person, Qin Jin also has some understanding in the history of the previous life, this person is most famous for the so-called economic reform, but unfortunately the result of the reform is a failure, and the severe inflation has fundamentally damaged the economic situation of the Tang Dynasty.

Therefore, when the Fifth Qi proposed to reform the currency system and mint coins of higher value with a small amount of copper, Qin Jin used consideration as an excuse to shelve the plan.

However, Fifth Qi is obviously a persistent person, he did not change his original intention because of Qin Jin's disapproval, and he tried everything possible to persuade Qin Jin whenever he had the opportunity. No, he was waiting early......
