An Jin asked what the Great Monarch Liwei planned to do, naturally not limited to the private affairs of his children, Jin Yuan had introduced An Jin as a confidant, and then he was an alliance with Yiyang and his wife, at the beginning, Yiyang Jun showed his loyalty to her, and he did not hesitate to help Jin Yuan win the throne at the expense of political marriage, and now that the Great King has returned, he has become Jin Yuan's most threatening opponent, in public and private, An Jin's "interrogation" is reasonable, and Jin Yuan should be relieved.

She was silent for a while, poured herself a glass of wine, and slowly tasted half a glass before saying again: "Even if An Jin doesn't ask today, I plan to find an opportunity to tell you and your wife frankly that the monarch is more suitable to lead his subjects to prosper Xiliang in the future than me, and we should do our best to help him, so as to make the monarch more prosperous." ”

An Jin was not surprised, in fact, since the Maharaja returned to Xiliang, Jin Yuan not only did not reject and obstruct and interfere, but it was more helpful for him to gain a foothold in Xiliang, and even took the initiative to advise His Majesty to canonize the title of Maharaja, An Jin and Yiyang both expected that Jin Yuan would not be an enemy of the Maharaja, so she only said at this time: "I want to hear it in detail." ”

"Can An Jin know how difficult it is to conquer the six counties of Haojing?" Jin Yuan did not answer the rhetorical question.

"I've heard something from Yiyang."

"Beiyuan has long coveted the two feudal domains of Chengye and Dongzheng, this time they have disputes and entanglements from the instigation of Beiyuan, and the idea of annexation is the first to be admonished by Xue Guoxiang, Beiyuan has a nuisance to the two feudal domains from time to time, and the West Liang has been unable to support the troops every time, and if the two feudal domains are taken, it is expected to overcome the danger of Haojing occupied, so it will be planned to make a plan, and when the Beiyuan forcibly occupies the two feudal domains, the West Liang will have a nominal counteroffensive, when my cousin and I discussed, planning whether we can take this opportunity to capture Haojing one and two border counties, I still think that my cousin is so high, Even Xue Guoxiang is not optimistic. ”

Jin Yuan sighed lightly: "My cousin didn't insist at that time, and he didn't even ask for more troops for this, but he did it, I was really convinced, I originally had the heart to compete with my cousin, but now it is full of admiration." ”

An Jin expressed his doubts: "The Maharaja used a trick this time to cause civil strife in the Northern Plains, and in the future, there is also a suspicion of opportunism." ”

"Xue Guoxiang also had such thoughts, but he couldn't start." Jin Yuan paused the wine cup in his hand: "This matter is not simple, although we have long known that there is also a struggle for power among the princes of the Northern Plains, but it is really difficult to take advantage of it, An Jin thought about it, if it was not possible to detect which prince Haojing had already colluded with, how could he persuade the tenth prince to have the heart of assassinating the prince, and the king of the northern plains just let the prince supervise the battle, and the prince escaped the assassination, and with the help of the vassal state, he is expected to sneak back to the northern plains safely, and the ten princes will panic and do not hesitate to collude with the guards to rebel." ”

If the prince dies and the ten princes achieve their treacherous schemes, Haojing Shou will naturally not leave his post without permission, and Xiliang will have no chance, which is really a mistake and a link will be in vain, and the more important timing must be grasped just right, it is indeed not easy to achieve, and this time, the monarch did not even use the people of Xiliang, which shows that he has already arranged his own tenants in Beiyuan, and the role is much more useful than that of the original people of Xiliang.

"There is also a wonderful thing about this plan, that is, the king of Beiyuan also heard that the general of Haojing and the ten princes colluded at this time, and 100,000 rebel troops are going to Beijing, so he must transfer troops to recruit and obstruct, so that Beiyuan will not be able to organize troops to recapture Haojing, we can also take advantage of the situation to deploy and fortify the pass, garrison Haojing, and subdue the remnants, and wait for the Beiyuan royal court to quell the chaos, Haojing has been firmly held in the hands of my Xiliang, and there are male soldiers in the dangerous county, and it is difficult for them to recapture it." Jin Yuan continued: "The six counties of Haojing have always been a dead knot in His Majesty's heart, and even have a sigh of resentment if he can't conquer it, this time my cousin can take it in one fell swoop and defend it steadily, and he has been convinced by his subjects, and the king is very important, and he is indeed the best candidate for the king of Xiliang to become a strong country in the future." ”

An Jin could see that Jin Yuan's admiration for the Maharaja was indeed heartfelt, and he did not question the other party's ability anymore, but said: "But this time, the Maharaja let the Hu and Qing clans take over the two feudal domains by the order of the deputy generals, so that the two surnames also made military merits, which is very unfavorable to the policy of abolishing the political council. ”

Xiliang heavy merchants, nobles and merchants colluded to make profits, and the government will obstruct the civil decree of light tax reduction, so that most of the people of Xiliang are poor, and even can not live and work in peace and contentment, more importantly, the taxes collected from the people are not attributed to the royal family, but are divided by the big nobles and the three surnames, although the king of Xiliang is belligerent, he also has the ambition to unify the various ministries to strengthen the Western Liang, but unfortunately the treasury is really unable to support large-scale wars, so it is necessary to dismantle the monopoly of the three surnames, which is basically to abolish the political council.

"At this point, my cousin also has a plan, unlike when I discussed with Minister Xue Guo in the past, I would use the Qing clan to suppress the Hu clan first, and then turn around and clean up the Qing clan, his suggestion was to directly ask for a big reward for military merits, so that ordinary nobles would have to be feuded." Jin Yuan said with a smile.

An Jin raised his eyebrows slightly: "In fact, this is also a common practice in Dalong, if you make great contributions, you will have to be a marquis, but in Xiliang, for a long time, only the three surnamed royal families have the saying of fiefdom...... The council will inevitably not pass. ”

"So, how disappointed should the nobles who are chasing Hu and Qing Er be disappointed?" Jin Yuan's jaw.

An Jin couldn't help but exclaim in small exclamation: "Dajun wants to divide the forces behind the two surnames? ”

Naturally, the candidates who can be blessed will not be ordinary soldiers, but the generals and their officers, all of whom are big nobles, and they are all three surnames.

Xiliang was originally a Triple Alliance, so there was a covenant of three surnames to govern, and after the three surnames, they were all supported by the original Shixun old nobles of each country, and these people supported the three surnames at the same time, but also relied on the three surnames to enjoy the glory and wealth, but if their interests and the three surnames, specifically the Hu and Qing clans, conflicted......

"The nobles and the government council are in the same boat, so they will admonish the abolition of the council, in the hope that the royal family's decrees that are beneficial to them can be implemented, and without their support, the Qing and Hu families can no longer be afraid." Jin Yuan smiled slightly: "For a long time, I have focused on the interests of the people, but I have ignored the key role of the nobles, the reform of government decrees and tax laws must be gradual and gradual, the first step is to abolish the political council, I only think that there is no way to avoid civil strife, and it must be suppressed by force, but I didn't expect to decompose the privileges of the three surnames to the nobles, so that the surname Wan can really subdue the nobles of all departments, provoke them to fight with Hu and Qing, and fundamentally disintegrate the trend of the two surnames." ”

If the civil war is triggered, it will inevitably hit Xiliang hard, and the innocent people who are involved in the destruction of their families are still the toiling masses, but if they can not move and abolish the political council, so that the power of the surname Wan will be unified and the people will return, it will undoubtedly be the most beneficial to the implementation of the new policy in the future, strengthening the country and the people's security.

Without the surnames of Hu and Qing, the nobles are like a plate of scattered sand, and the only attachment is the royal power. Of course, it is still necessary to have some favors and benefits for the nobles, so that they can bow down and obey the national government, and the revision of the government decree and law is a complicated work, which can be slowly figured out, but the policy of benefiting the country and the people must be implemented unimpeded, first of all, it is necessary to abolish the three alliance councils that obstruct the implementation of government decrees.

This time Haojing's great victory was an excellent time to propose a reward for the feud.

The Three Alliances Political Council is facing the end of the road!

And all of this happened just over a year after the Maharaja's return to China, and it was planned by him.

"At the beginning, His Majesty wanted to make me the prince, because he thought that I could lead Xiliang to continue to prosper, and it turned out that I still had many shortcomings, and the prince was far superior to me in terms of wisdom or courage, and I was willing to assist the prince as a minister, and I was not unwilling to accept it." Jin Yuan looked at An Jin and said with a slight joke: "Sister-in-law still has doubts about Jin Yuan's opinion?" ”

An Jin chuckled: "Jin Yuan is a woman, but she cares about the monarchy and does not care about self-interest, I am very convinced...... However, when the Mahjun did not show his ability at the beginning of his return, Jin Yuan was very helpful, and I actually had suspicions, could it be that Jin Yuan had an early admiration for the Maharaja? ”

Hearing this, Wei Xi temporarily stopped pouring himself a drink, and glanced at An Jin with a smile, this little girl had already put words out of her mouth early in the morning, but she turned around so much before asking Jin Yuan, what is the idea? But of course she didn't show it, and remained silent.

Jin Yuan also did not shy away from saying: "Many years ago, my cousin went to Xiliang and talked to me about Xiliang's government affairs. ”

"I often gossip with the queen, listen to her meaning, and also want to marry the prince and the king, as far as I see, the king is certainly the most suitable candidate for the prince, looking at Xiliang, there is no more suitable future queen than Jin Yuan." An Jin was especially glad that she was in Xiliang at this time, and there was no need to shy away from talking about marriage, and after speaking bluntly, she said in a slightly deep voice: "But it has been rumored outside, the prince has a deep affection for Qianpan Niangzi, and it is even rumored that she will be made his wife, and the queen is not impressed, but I witnessed the monarch's maintenance of Qianpan that day......"

An Jin was a little nervous when she said this, because she was very worried that Jin Yuan would hold a grudge against "Qianpan".

"Not a rumor." Jin Yuan raised his eyes, and at the same time sat up slightly: "In fact, my cousin asked me before the expedition, if my grandfather and grandmother want to be unfavorable to Qianpan, I still hope that I will help, he said frankly that he will ask Mrs. Feng for Qianpan in the future." ”

Not only did these words surprise An Jin, but Wei Xi was almost choked by the wine, but Jin Yuan was very calm.

"I am also a woman, no different from ordinary women, I will admire men, but the children's private feelings will always be at the bottom of my life, I helped my cousin at the beginning, because he was my aunt's widow, and I am a relative, and now I am determined to assist the king, because he does have the ability that I can't match, and he is more prosperous, I never plan to pay anything for my children's private affairs, and naturally I don't expect to be rewarded."

An Jin really didn't expect Jin Yuan to say such a thing, and her first reaction was that it was not credible, but Jin Yuan's calm and steady demeanor made her involuntarily convinced, and after thinking about it, whether her original request for peace had nothing to do with her children's private affairs, and she had never planned to marry her confidant at that time, and the only thing she considered was how to get rid of the dilemma at that time, so as to strive for possible peace and ease.

Jin Yuan has been pinned on by the royal family surnamed Wan since she was a child, as the only heir of the prince, her future marriage cannot be as she wants, maybe she is ready for a political marriage, and it is indeed reasonable not to place hope on the private affairs of her children.

"But Jin Yuan, even if it is for the sake of Xiliang's future, it is more suitable for you to marry the Maharaja." An Jin further probed.

"Even if I am not the future queen, I will try my best to assist the Maharaja, and it is not the key whether I marry or not." Jin Yuan smiled lightly: "Actually, I also think so, if I am the queen, I will be more convincing than Qianpan, and my cousin will be smoother in the future, as An Jin said, for the future of Xiliang, I should indeed fight for the position of queen." ”

But without waiting for An Jin to speak, Jin Yuan followed and said: "However, I can't use my own thoughts to interfere with my cousin, it is natural for him to marry his beloved as the main family Yuan, he is strong enough to strengthen Xiliang with his ability, and there is no need to use marriage again, and besides, ...... If my cousin wants to subdue the Wan clan in such a simple way as marriage, in public and private, I will agree, but if he doesn't want to, I also have to maintain my dignity, and I can't use power and interests to force each other for wishful thinking, to that point, I myself look down on myself, and even humiliate the surname of Wan, the dignity of a princess of a country. ”

In short, this night, An Jin was completely subdued by Jin Yuan's open-mindedness, and she no longer doubted that she would harm Yijing for the jealousy and hatred of her daughter's family, but she was really not sure whether Her Royal Highness the princess, who had been subdued by the Maharaja, was willing to rescue her sister-in-law from trouble, and finally decided to record this conversation word for word and hand it over to Yanzilou to be sent to Chuzhou.

For such a nerve-wracking matter, let my brother think about it, and she still acts safely according to orders.

But An Jin really felt a little aggrieved, and took advantage of the day when Yiyang "eliminated all difficulties" and "shamelessly" "begged for nothing" to stay in the princess's mansion, An Jin pinched her husband's shoulder and suddenly said: "Why do I always think that Jin Yuan should sit on the throne?" Is it so unreassuring to hand over Xiliang to His Royal Highness the Maharaja who acted arbitrarily? ”

Yi Yangjun was stunned on the spot, and was extremely puzzled by his wife's wanton four-character evaluation of His Royal Highness the Monarch, whose prestige had greatly increased.
