Everything was as expected by the Jing brothers, and the next day, the entire noble circle of Shoudu knew the cause and effect of the whole thing.

Among the scholars, there are those who are unhappy for the Jing family, but more of them are a little gloating.

However, it's the same as Jingtou Jingxiu. The closer they got to the center of power, especially those involved in the struggle for the crown, most of them began to re-evaluate the Seventh Prince.

Of course, those who have an inheritance in Ying, regardless of the size of the family, will immediately pass on the book, so that the children of the side branches of the family can restrain the servants and be more restrained.

Even, even the great general Ji Shu, who has always been at odds with the Jing family, is the same.

The Jing family just suffered a big loss on this, and it was when they were red-eyed. At this time, even the Ji family didn't want to touch the Jing family's brows.

As for the reason, it's very simple, but I don't want to lose energy and manpower in vain for a battle of will, and the gains outweigh the losses.

Compared with the situation of the Shoudu Jing family, Xia Huan, who is still on the Ying, is obviously walking around the street casually as before.

Emperor Chu's edict had already arrived at Yingshang before noon.

In the edict, in addition to symbolically reprimanding Xia Huan, the most severe punishment was to stay in the house and think about it behind closed doors for three days.

And what is the difference between such a punishment and not? Anyway, no one is stupid enough to really supervise Xia Huan.

Of course, in addition to the edict punishing Xia Huan. There was also an edict that came into the hands of Yingshang Ling Lin Mu.

The hard-working Lin Mu was not only punished by the summoned guards for thirty years, but also suspended for one year.

It is worth mentioning that Changxiu Army, which was originally a county soldier in name, was also assigned to Xia Huan's name and served as Xia Huan's guard.

It's a pity that except for a tiger talisman to control Chang Xiujun, Xia Huan has never gotten anything or people from that emperor Laozi.

The weapons are not complete, the armor is not there, let alone the war horses. Even the most basic military discipline, in the Changxiu Army, seems to be a fantasy.

Such a guard not only does not play a protective role, but it is a shame to take it out, and it is better to have it than not to have it.

However, in the face of such a Changxiu army, Xia Huan's method of dealing with it is also simple.

Directly appointed Yu Meng as the general of the Changxiu Army, that is, the highest commander of the Changxiu Army. As for the original Overseer General, he was directly driven home by Xia Huan.

As for how Yu Meng managed the Changxiu Army with only more than a thousand people left, it was not something that Xia Huan needed to consider.

Like him Lao Tzu, don't give people, don't give things, how to play, how to play.

However, Yu Meng didn't think much from Xia Huan. Rather than seeing it as a burden, it was seen as a great opportunity to highlight one's abilities.

happily, he left with his thirty-odd brothers and the tiger talisman given by Xia Huan.

Of course, a small Changxiu army did not have much influence in this incident. On the contrary, those families of the scholars have all tightened their tails.

Now, knowing that this little prince is a lion who has woken up, no one wants to target him.

It's not that they're afraid of this little prince, and even the Chu Emperor behind the little prince is not so afraid. What they are really worried about is still Jing's.

The Jing family has suffered such a big loss, if another family falls into the hands of the little prince, and the result is not as miserable as the Jing family, where will Jing's face go?

And all this is exactly what Xia Huan wants to see.

In this court, with Xia Huan's identity and strength alone, he didn't want to clean up Yingshang at all. If you want to do it, you have to take advantage of it first.

If you want them to bow their heads, you must borrow their strength, and you also need to be the strongest among them.

To put it simply, it is a fox and a fake tiger.

Therefore, Xia Huancai has been hanging around the West Street to which Jing's belongs, just to find trouble with Jing's.

As for why he looked for the Jing family, who was related to him, instead of the Ji family, the reason was simpler.

If he was looking for trouble with the Ji family, maybe the Ji family would not be able to help him, but it was more than enough to find a random reason to drive him back to Shoudu.

Unlike now, when he caused a big trouble for the Jing family, there was also a Queen Jing to settle for him.

There is an inseparable relationship of interest between the Jing family and Empress Jing.

And Xia Huan, as the biological son of Queen Jing, even if she is above politics, she is not as much help as she imagined before, but the love of flesh and blood is still inseparable.

Seeing that the people of the Jing family actually took soldiers and horses and wanted the life of her own son, how could Queen Jing, who has always been strong, let it go?

The Jing family was hindered by the existence of Queen Jing, so they could only secretly endure this loss.

The people of Shoudu may be a little clear about the beginning and end of this matter, but this is Yingshang, and most of the people in charge of this place are some side branches.

As the Lord's family, how could he give such a detailed explanation to the people of the side branches. At most, it reminds them to rein in their subordinates.

And such an effect, in the eyes of those side branches on the chin, is undoubtedly that the little prince offended the Jing family, and the Jing family had to swallow his anger.

In this way, in the eyes of those side branches on the Ying, Xia Huan's status was immediately ranked above the Jing family.

In a short period of time, Xia Huan's actual status on Yingshang jumped up, at least not inferior to the influence of Jing and Ji's on Ying.

The biggest benefit brought by the convergence of the Yingshang family is to make Xia Huan's reputation swiped hard among the people of Yingshang.

So many people died in the city the day before yesterday, and the city was already full of turmoil.

And now, the convergence of the families in the city, the people, are also in their eyes. Although on the surface, I don't dare to say that the family is not, but behind the scenes, I am very happy.

The first purpose on the wing has been basically achieved, and next, Xia Huan's purpose is to break those unequal constraints. Return everything to the rules formulated by Chu Taizu at the beginning.

Only in this way can the people on the Ying Dynasty remember that they relied on the Taizu and the Xia Dynasty to survive, not the vassal tools of those families.

However, this point is undoubtedly more difficult than purging the law and discipline on the Ying.

Because, this has already touched the interests of those families from the root.

Porcelain burning, paper making, tea planting, which do not require a lot of manpower. Reducing costs is the instinct of capital.

Xia Huan wants to restore the Taizu system, which will undoubtedly greatly increase the production cost of goods, and it is no wonder that those families are willing!

Moreover, now that Xia Huan can no longer pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger, all the families must be extremely wary of him.

It's even harder to do that.

However, Xia Huan is not in a hurry, there is still a long time, and he will stay in Yingshang County for at least four or five years. Yes, it's time and opportunity.

However, what Xia Huan didn't expect was that the opportunity he was looking forward to came so suddenly, and even so cruelly.

The rain is still falling, and the entire Chu country has completely entered the rainy season.

The continuous rain also caused the Yingshui and Huaishui to continue to rise. A potential crisis has begun to turn into a catastrophe.
