After leaving the court, Xia Ren came to the Mingxin Palace.

Not long after he sat down, a report came from outside, saying that the lieutenant and several ministers of military aircraft and cabinet ministers had asked to see him.

Xia Ren wondered, what were they doing when they saw him at this time? During this time, Xia Ren and these ministers left by the former emperor basically did not communicate.

Xia Ren won't be them for the time being, and they won't cause trouble for Xia Ren.

"Declare them in. ”

After a while, Wu Huannian and they came in.

"See Your Majesty. ”

"No courtesy. ”

Then Xia Ren smiled and said, "I don't know what you Aiqing is looking for?"

Wu Huannian said respectfully: "Your Majesty, the minister came this time to resign from the post of Tai Lieutenant, and I also ask Your Majesty for permission." ”

Xia Ren was stunned for a moment, he didn't force them! Why did he resign suddenly, and if he resigned now, Xia Ren didn't have enough people to take charge of the military aircraft department, only Yue Fei and Meng Tian, there were still too few.

"Why did Wu Aiqing suddenly want to resign from the post of Grand Lieutenant, and are you dissatisfied with me?"

Wu Huannian hurriedly bowed down and said: "Weichen doesn't dare, it's just that the first emperor once said that if Your Majesty is ready to make a move against the family, let us give up our position so that Your Majesty can concentrate our forces." ”

Xia Ren smiled after hearing this: "Wu Aiqing doesn't have to be like this, now that I have insufficient manpower, if Aiqing is leaving, my military aircraft department and cabinet will be unavailable, as long as Aiqing has no second heart for me, then there is no need to resign as a lieutenant." ”

After speaking, he looked at the other ministers and smiled: "You are the same, as long as you are loyal to me, I will not treat you badly." ”

"Your Majesty will swear allegiance to your Majesty. ”

When several ministers heard Xia Ren's words, they immediately exclaimed.

In fact, they also knew that these ministers of military aircraft and cabinet ministers would give up their positions sooner or later, but Xia Ren had never looked for them these days, which made them a little frightened.

Therefore, these former emperors and former ministers are ready to unite and find out Xia Ren's attitude together, and now they know that Xia Ren will not be ruthless to them, as long as they follow Xia Ren's footsteps, even if they lose the position of Minister of Military Aircraft and Cabinet Minister in the end, it is estimated that the rest of the benefits are indispensable.

Subsequently, Xia Ren instructed Wu Huannian and the others to do some things, and let them go down.

After they stepped back, Xia Ren chuckled.

These former emperors and former ministers are still quite sensitive, and for the sake of them being so obedient, Xia Ren will not consider what to do to them, but the positions of the Minister of Military Aircraft and the Minister of the Cabinet will definitely be given up in the end.

......

Two days later, Donghai Prefecture, Hefeng City, Qian Fu.

Qian Miaocai, Yuan Dongqing and other five marquis of Donghai Prefecture are all here, only the Li family is not there.

"Brother Qian, what do you think of Your Majesty's actions in these two court meetings?"

Yuan Dongqing was the first to speak and asked Qian Miaocai.

Qian Miaocai frowned, and after a while, he sighed: "Your Majesty wants to centralize power, and then it is estimated that you will have to do it to the family." ”

"Doesn't Your Majesty remember the help we have given him?"

Chen Tao, the Marquis of Minglan on the side, was a little out of the way.

Qian Miaocai shook his head and said: "The royal family is selfless, not to mention that the problem of purging the family of Great Xia is what the emperor has been doing, and it is estimated that the emperor must have explained something before he died. ”

Yuan Dongqing also nodded, and then asked, "Won't we notify the Li family?"

"No need, the Li family and the Sun family have been inherited for less than a hundred years, Li Yuande and Sun Meng are the founders, and they basically have no interference in the local people's livelihood, so they are not considered a family, and Your Majesty should not touch them. ”

"So what do we do?"

Qian Miaocai thought for a while, and then said helplessly: "Now there are only two ways." ”

"One is to give up the glory that we have inherited for hundreds of years, hand over the territory we operate to the imperial court, and then we will implement the policies of the imperial court in the future, and we can't do the same as before. ”

"Another way is to unite the world's families and put pressure on Your Majesty together, so that Your Majesty will definitely take care of it, and we may be able to continue to retain the glory of our ancestors. ”

Yuan Dongqing nodded after listening, and then continued: "The results of these two methods are also different, if you use the first method, our family can inherit it, but it has lost its former glory." ”

After speaking, he paused and continued: "As for the second method, the risk is too great, if it succeeds, it can be delayed for a while longer, if it fails, it is very likely that even your life will not be saved." ”

"Alas!"

Several people let out a long sigh and fell silent.

After a while, Chen Tao asked again: "Your Majesty, doesn't you really miss the old feelings? Our Donghai Prefecture family has always been loyal to the imperial court, and we also helped him ascend to the throne, does Your Majesty really want to attack our Donghai Prefecture as well?"

Yuan Dongqing replied with a solemn face: "This is the general trend, it's not that you can let you go if you help Your Majesty, at most it will only give you a little convenience, and Donghai Prefecture is the place where Your Majesty got up, he will definitely not let it go, it is estimated that the first one to clean up is Donghai Prefecture." ”

"This...."

Chen Tao looked surprised, first clear Donghai Prefecture? This is completely leaving no way for them to live!

After a while, Qian Miaocai said in a deep voice: "It's useless to say these things now, at this time, you can only rely on yourself, if you want to save your life, then cooperate with Your Majesty, if you want to keep the glory, then contact other families." ”

After speaking, he glanced at a few people and said: "Today's party should be treated as if it never happened, the choices of each family are still carefully considered, and we will not talk about any union, this kind of thing, each family's choice is different, so it can only depend on their own ideas." ”

The rest of the people also nodded, indeed, the six marquis of Donghai Prefecture, the Li family is estimated to be on the side of the imperial court, and the five of them, will no one stand on the side of the imperial court?

Of course, there will definitely be unwilling, but at that time, no matter what the consequences are, you will have to bear them yourself.

Several Hou Ye left with different faces, and no one knew what the other party's decision was.

At this time, the western Yuzhou, Sifang City, was also the residence of the Sifang Hou Cao family.

The Cao family is firmly ranked in the top five or even the top three among all the families in the three states in the west, and only the Dingxi Hou Feng family, which is also Yuzhou, and the Zhenxi Hou Fang family in Kangzhou are stronger than his Cao family.

The rest are at most about the same size as the Cao family, and even inferior to the Cao family.

Cao Mansion, backyard study.

The contemporary Quartet Hou Cao Jinlin is discussing with his ancestors.

"Jinlin, what do you think of His Majesty's moves?"

Cao Jinlin pondered for a moment and replied: "Your Majesty's actions are obviously preparing to make a move against the family, and this sign can be seen from the first emperor." ”

After speaking, he sighed and said: "Originally, our Cao family fully supported King Wen's ascension, just to prevent the arrival of this day, we all know King Wen's character, so we have a way for my Cao family to survive this catastrophe, but I didn't expect that in the end it was King Ren who took the throne, and we don't know the character of King Wen, and now we can only take one step at a time." ”

"Our Cao family can't fight the imperial court!"

The Cao family ancestor showed deep worry on his face.

Cao Jinlin said with a smile: "Ancestor don't worry, the imperial court will not use force to subdue us, our Cao family has been operating here for thousands of years, and the heritage is profound, if the imperial court dares to use force, then we will incite the people and make the imperial court lose the hearts of the people." ”

After speaking, he paused and continued: "In a few days, I will go to the Feng family to discuss with Ding Xihou and see what he can do, the Feng family has been inherited for a longer time than our Cao family, and it will definitely not yield to the imperial court so easily." ”

The ancestor of the Cao family nodded, and then suddenly asked, "Can we contact Danding Pavilion?"

Cao Jinlin shook his head and said: "This is not good, the imperial court may not use force against our family, but if the sect is involved, then it is difficult to say, so for the sake of safety, this matter cannot be used by the power of the sect, even if it is used, it cannot be detected by the imperial court." ”

After speaking, he asked again: "Ancestor, did you listen to the Yuge Pavilion and take refuge in the imperial court?"

The ancestor of the Cao family nodded, and said with a somewhat unsightly face: "Listening to the Yu Pavilion before taking refuge in His Royal Highness King Ren, if it weren't for the intervention of the Yu Pavilion, it is still unknown who will win and who will lose in the end, and now that the King of Ren is on the throne, the Listening Yu Pavilion must also take refuge in the imperial court." ”

Cao Jinlin nodded and didn't say anything more.

......

Listen to the rain pavilion, the back mountain.

The three Supreme Elders of the Listening Rain Pavilion usually live here.

At this time, in a small courtyard in the back mountain, Qin Wenlie was dancing with his eyebrows and telling his senior brother and brother about the wonderful process of him and Xia Ren exterminating the Wuji Demon Hall all the way.

Xu Wenhe and Zhou Wenliu also listened with a smile on their faces and did not interrupt.

Qin Wenlie did make a great contribution to Tingyu Pavilion and successfully helped Niwang ascend to the throne, although it is still unknown how much help there is.

But from now on, as long as they listen to the rain pavilion and don't do anything out of line, they are not afraid of being suddenly destroyed by the royal family.

After a while, Xu Wenhe spoke: "In the past few days, let us listen to the disciples of the Yu Pavilion to withdraw, and we are not allowed to meddle in local government affairs, and by the way, we will send people to hype up the wisdom and martial arts of Your Majesty today, the contributions made by the imperial court, and so on." ”

Qin Wenlie suddenly said with some doubts: "Senior brother, if we withdraw all our disciples, won't all the achievements of our countless years of business be discarded?"

Xu Wenhe shook his head with a smile and said: "This is a gesture of goodwill to Your Majesty, judging from the news I received, Your Majesty estimates that he will soon attack the family, and the first one is estimated to be Donghai Prefecture, because Donghai Prefecture is the birthplace of His Majesty, and it must be completely in his hands." ”

"And the reason why the family was targeted by the imperial court is because they have too much influence on the place, so it has caused His Majesty to be jealous, and we listen to the influence of the Yu Pavilion is not less than that of the family, so if you want to survive this turmoil safely, you can only do so. ”

After speaking, he smiled again: "Besides, these local powers don't have much effect on us listening to the Yuge, so why bother to arouse the jealousy of the imperial court for this." ”

Qin Wenlie also nodded after hearing this, he has followed Xia Ren for a while, he knows Xia Ren's character, if you make meritorious service, he will reward you, but if you make a matter of principle, no matter how much merit you make, he will not let you go.

In fact, Xia Ren could also guess that his series of behaviors would definitely arouse the vigilance of the world's families, but what about this? This is the general trend, no one can stop it, unless the world's families unite together, but is this possible?
