To say that the power of King Jin in Beijing should not be underestimated, he learned the news on the day Yun Lan went out.

"It's just the fifth day of the first lunar month, and the New Year is not over, what did King Qin do when he left Beijing at this time?"

"According to the news we heard, there is something wrong in Shunzhou, and the King of Qin personally went to take command."

A man who looked like a peddler half-knelt in front of King Jin and replied respectfully.

"Shunzhou..."King Jin suddenly realized that Shunzhou is the southwest gateway of Dayun, and it is also under the jurisdiction of the Western Frontier Army.

"It's okay, King Qin is not in the capital, and some things are convenient for this king to implement." King Jin's eyes narrowed slightly, and a sly smile rose at the corner of his mouth, "My good fifth brother, you will do your best to protect this splendid country for your brother." ”

After the hawker retreated, King Jin was alone for a long time, and suddenly seemed to think of something, and muttered to himself: "Lord Chen of the military department has passed the year of knowing the destiny of heaven, right?" I didn't expect his old father to be alive..."

"But recently, I heard that the old gentleman is seriously ill, and I'm afraid time is running out..."

Yun Lan and the three of them traveled lightly, running around for ten months, and finally arrived at the destination of their trip, Danzhou, at the end of the first month.

Although the first month has not passed the cold winter, the climate in Jiangnan is much warmer than that of Yuncheng.

Outside Danzhou City, Yun Lan and the three of them looked at the huge city tower, thinking differently.

"Aren't we going to Shunzhou, how did we come to the border of Danzhou?"

Lan Qianzhu Dai frowned slightly, she faintly felt that something was wrong along the way, Shunzhou was in the southwest border of Yunguo, but their way was completely straight to the south.

"Because we have more important things to do in Danzhou."

Huang Fuhong looked straight ahead with his eyes and responded softly.

"So, you said that going to Shunzhou was just a pretense?" At this time, Lan Qianzhu was already a little unhappy in her heart, she was going to Shunzhou to collect medicine, but she was brought to this Danzhou City by Yun Lan.

"Not exactly." Yun Lan shook her head, "I did receive a message from the flying pigeons of the Shunzhou camp, saying that Shunzhou is different. However, after my careful deduction, they should be able to solve the matter of Shunzhou by themselves. In comparison, it is more important to do here. ”

"Don't worry, when the matter of Danzhou is over, we will transfer to Shunzhou again."

Hearing Yun Lan's explanation, Lan Qianzhu didn't want to say anything more, just nodded shallowly.

Seeing that Lan Qianzhu had no objections, Yun Lan turned to Huangfu Hong and advised: "When we enter the city this time, we will mainly make secret visits, and we must not act recklessly and startle the snakes. ”

"Brother, don't worry, I have my own measure."

Recently, after Emperor Yun insisted on taking Han Tong's new medicine, his complexion seemed to have improved a lot, and it was no longer a problem to get out of bed and walk around a few steps.

Today, with the support of Gonggong Zheng, Emperor Yun took a break in the back garden and admired the spring color of the garden.

"Mr. Zheng, this is..."

After a while, an internal supervisor hurriedly walked up to Gonggong Zheng and whispered a few words in his ear.

When Gonggong Zheng heard this, he was slightly shocked in his heart, but his face still did not change, "Okay, you go down first." ”

"Huh? What's the matter? ”

The scene of the two whispering did not hide the eyes of the emperor not far away, and when Gonggong Zheng came closer, Emperor Yun asked with doubts.

"Uh..." Gonggong Zheng smiled slightly unnaturally, but still said truthfully: "Back to Your Majesty, Lord Chen, the secretary of the Ministry of War, sent an urgent recital." ”

"Bingbu?" Emperor Yun sighed in his heart, the urgent documents of the Ministry of War are generally related to military affairs, and at this time, the Ministry of War is in a hurry, is it possible that the border is smoky again?

Emperor Yun, who was full of complicated feelings, took a cursory look at the document and was surprised to find that this was actually a Taoist invitation.

"Chen Zhengxiao's old father died of illness, and he asked me to return to his hometown to keep filial piety for my father for three years."

Originally, according to common sense, birth, old age, sickness and death, human nature, Emperor Yun should have allowed it. But Emperor Yun also knew that the current calm in the court was temporary, and once he died, the young master would come to the court, and the situation of the neighbors would inevitably form. At this time, allowing a veteran who was sitting in the military department to leave was undoubtedly extremely unfavorable to Dayun.

But on the other hand, Dayun governs the country with courtesy and filial piety, if he doesn't even let other people's old fathers die of illness and filial piety, wouldn't it be too unkind?

Unexpectedly, Chen Zhengxiao's request for such a document directly put Emperor Yun in a dilemma.

"You say..."Emperor Yun pondered for a long time, but never came up with a solution for both worlds, he turned his head and glanced at Gonggong Zheng, who had "I don't know anything" written on his face, and said angrily: "Forget it, I won't be difficult for you." ”

"Go, summon King Qin into the palace."

"Uh... Back to His Majesty, His Royal Highness King Qin left Beijing more than 20 days ago, saying that there was something wrong with Shunzhou, and he went to check it in person. ”

"It was Your Majesty... Your Highness was afraid of disturbing you, so he did not add a message. ”

"Oh, that's right." Emperor Yun nodded, but he didn't mean to blame, "Shunzhou's geographical location is special, and it is indeed extremely important, but it is hard work again." ”

"That's it, let's summon King Jin into the palace."

"Yes."

When the inner eunuch arrived at the Jin Palace, he happened to meet Yun Song, who was reading in the study.

Hearing his father's will, King Jin didn't say a word, changed into formal clothes, and hurriedly entered the palace after a little tidying up.

"Son-in-law, see father."

"That's it," Emperor Yun waved his hand, "I am in such a hurry to summon you because I want to hear what you mean." ”

At this moment, Emperor Yun was sitting on the dragon chair, and his cheeks, which had just improved, looked a little haggard, "Chen Zhengxiao, the secretary of the military department, asked me to fold today, saying that his old father passed away and he needs to return to his hometown to guard filial piety. ”

"However, you are not unaware of the current situation in China, and I am afraid that if I let him go, I will not be able to find a suitable replacement for a while. If something happens, it's too passive for us. ”

"What does Father mean... Want to win love? ”

The development of things was almost exactly what King Jin had expected, and he was overjoyed in his heart, but his face did not show the slightest hint.

"I, Dayun, govern the country with etiquette and praise filial piety, how can I do what I say and do?" Emperor Yun shook his head, his face a little bitter, "If this matter is not handled properly, I am afraid that future generations will say that I am a faint monarch who does not obey filial piety." ”

"I'm here today to see if there's a way to do both."

For this matter, King Jin had a plan in his heart. But he still made a look of embarrassment on his face, and after groaning slightly, he said: "Yili, after the death of his parents, he should be a son of man for three years, which means that Lord Chen cannot serve in the court for at least three years. ”

"If my father is unwilling to win the favor, then I can only find someone to replace Lord Chen's original position."

"In your opinion, who is better to replace you?"

"The ministers have very little personal contact with the ministers of the DPRK and China, so it is not very clear what their character is." King Jin first pretended to prevaricate, and then said tentatively: "But Erchen once heard that Lord Wen Yan of the military department is a solid and hard-working person, and he is quite capable. But this is just a word of mouth from others, and the specific situation is unknown. ”
