On the afternoon of the next day, Xiao Yu and Lin Yinping met Han Xuan and others again on the way back to Zhongdu after leaving Danxia Village, but they didn't know if it was fate or intentionality. However, Xiao Yu didn't think about it, and after asking them to go to Zhongdu, he invited them to go together.

Han Xuan can be said to be Wang Kaizhi's proud disciple, this time he was ordered by his master to travel all the way from Xiliangzhou, nominally a study tour, but the ultimate goal is to go to Zhongdu and start his career as Han Xuan. As for the rest of the brothers and sisters, most of them are still study tours, even if they are interested in careers, there is also an element of luck in it.

Han Xuan is indeed a person who has seen the world, among the powerful generals in the northwest, he has seen Wei Ban and Min Xing, and among the civil officials, he has seen Xiao Jin and Lan Yu, so after seeing Xiao Yu, he naturally will not recognize Xiao Yu as the son of an ordinary family, and Lin Yinping's pregnancy and Xiao Yu's gestures confirm Han Xuan's guess. Lan Yu and the others, there is only one Lin Han, but now that Lin Han has gone to the grassland, the person in front of him can only be Xiao Yu, the king of the Northwest who is standing at the top of the northwest.

Xiao Yu let several women get into the carriage and ride in the carriage with Lin Yinping, while he got out of the carriage and walked side by side with Han Xuan.

No matter how free Han Xuan is, he is quite flattered at the moment. Although Xiao Yu does not have the name of an emperor, he does have the ambition of an emperor, and he has the reality of an emperor in the huge northwest, so how decent is it to let the king of the northwest deign to walk together?

Unconsciously, the two fell behind everyone.

Han Xuan walked cautiously, leaving Xiao Yu half of his body, and he didn't dare to really stand side by side with Xiao Yu.

Xiao Yu didn't care, and asked casually: "What are your plans for this trip?" ”

Han Xuan replied: "First find a place to settle in the outer city, and then report to the Prime Minister's Mansion in the inner city, and wait for Lord Zuo to summon you." ”

Xiao Yu paused for a moment, and then asked: "Do you think the current Zuo Xiang is good, or the previous Zuo Xiang is good?" Say whatever you want, don't be afraid, this king will not blame you." ”

Han Xuan thought for a while and said: "There is a saying that when the water is clear, there is no fish, Mr. Lan is too upright, if he is in the position of the left minister, it is not impossible, but it is inevitable that he will get twice the result in some things, but the little prince is more mellow, he can't say that the left and right are the source, but he can invisibly reduce a lot of constraints, but then again, Mr. Lan is upright, not friends or parties, and he can rest assured that the prince can only rely on the dictatorship of the prince. ”

Xiao Yu pointed at Han Xuan and said with a smile: "Okay, you Han Xuan Han Wenbi, you do have some ability." ”

Han Xuan said modestly: "The prince praises falsely, Han Xuan is ashamed and dare not be." ”

Xiao Yu slowly withdrew the smile from his face, "In this world, it is not the time to learn literature and martial arts and the emperor's family. The monarch chooses the minister, and the minister also chooses the king. Wenchen military generals, especially Wenchen, although it is said that the scholar's rebellion has not been successful for ten years, but the scholar has been very effective in supporting the dragon and assisting the dragon. Especially in the future, the country was laid on horseback, but it was not possible to sit on horseback, and the warriors could fight the world and defend the world, but they could not rule the world, and at this time, it was necessary for the literati to stand up and rule the country and help the emperor to sit firmly in the world. ”

Han Xuan's expression was solemn, and he said in a deep voice: "It's easy to fight the world, and it's hard to sit in the world, as evidenced by the death of Great Qin and Great Sui II back then. ”

Xiao Yu seemed to laugh it off, but Han Xuan intuitively felt that the king of the northwest did not disagree with his words, but was unwilling to talk too deeply about this topic.

Han Xuan stopped talking in amusement.

Xiao Yu was silent for a while, and then said: "Thesis minister, the Eastern Capital is the center of the world, and the entire Central Plains can be included in the bag. Jiangdu is the head of Jiangnan, and since ancient times, Jiangnan Shilin has been at the peak of literary style, occupying half of the world's veins. As for the northwest, there are many big guns and horses, and the foundation of the literati is not a weak one to describe. ”

Xiao Yu hid his hands in his sleeves and sighed: "If you don't want to, you can't, it's difficult." ”

——

In the middle capital, the palace of the prince is located on the left side of the northwest palace, and the capital governor's mansion on the right is just symmetrical, symbolizing the left and the right.

Because of the reason for the abandonment in the early years, compared to the grandeur of the palace and the strict atmosphere of the metropolitan governor's mansion, the palace of the king is really shabby. After Lan Yu entered the Prime Minister's Mansion, it was only slightly sorted out and not renovated. It wasn't until Xiao Jin was in power that there was a slight improvement, but because the renovation of the palace was personally grasped by Lin Yinping, even Xiao Jin had to give in, so the degree of improvement was quite limited.

The entire Wangxiangfu is a bit similar to the cabinet of the temple in the eastern capital, and there are also six divisions, corresponding to the six departments of officials, rites, households, soldiers, criminals, and workers, and the so-called left and right two phases are the first and second auxiliary. Xiao Yu said in the discussion of Xiao Yu that Xiao Yu set up his own court, that is, the palace of the king. But it's also funny, Xiao Lie's eldest son set up his own court, and the younger son became the first assistant of the eldest son's small court, no wonder Shilin talked about it, saying that the prime minister had arranged a good show by himself!

Since the various systems of the Wang Xiangfu follow the imperial cabinet, then the Wang Xiangfu will naturally keep people on duty every night, tonight is Xiao Jin personally on duty, and with him is Li Rusong, the left governor of the Secret Guard Mansion. The Secret Guard Mansion is famous, but where is the White Tiger Hall, the old nest of the Secret Guard Mansion, but many people don't know, in fact, the Dark Guard Mansion is located in the Wangxiang Mansion, and on the north and south sides of the main gate of the Wang's Mansion, there is a row of inconspicuous black brick houses, which is Xiao Yu's newly established Secret Guard North and South Town. Li Rusong was in charge of the North Town Fu Division, Tang Chunyu was in charge of the South Town Fu Division, and the part of the internal guards in charge of Qu Cang was located in the palace.

In the direct hall of the Prime Minister's Mansion, there is a picture of hunting in the outer hall, which is a little bleak and cold, but the fire has risen in the inner hall, and the warmth is melting.

Xiao Jin and Li Rusong sat around the stove, Xiao Jin held Xiao Yu's reply letter in his hand, and said: "Li Dudu, Sun Ligong, the Governor of the Eastern Guard, you should be familiar with it, and Zhao Qing, the Governor of the Left Guard, must be no stranger to you." Now there is news from the eastern capital, there will be a change in the imperial court in the near future, this secret guard Zuo Du Governor may be transferred to the Privy Council as the Privy Governor, or he may be transferred to the Zhongshu Province as the Governor of the Council, but in any case, Zhao Qing and my brother have been at odds for a long time, if he is in power, it will be a great hidden danger for my northwest. ”

Xiao Jin paused for a moment and said slowly: "At present, my northwest is in turmoil, and what I need is to recuperate, not to start another war, so what the prince means is that Zhao Qing cannot be allowed to take the throne." ”

Li Rusong was silent for a long time, and then asked softly: "Little Lord Wang means to start from Sun Ligong?"

Xiao Jin said in a deep voice: "Sun Ligong has a deep foundation in the Eastern Capital, and sometimes, even the prime minister has to take his views into account. ”

Li Rusong said softly: "But it's just a matter of consideration, if you want to make the prime minister change his mind, I'm afraid it's impossible." ”

Xiao Jin nodded and said, "So we just need to delay the time when Zhao Qing ascended to the throne, with our northwest as the Olympic aid, Zhao Qing is one step late, it is a step late, presumably Sun Ligong will understand this truth." In addition, this matter has to be supervised by Governor Li Du. ”

Li Rusong got up and clenched his fists, and said in a deep voice: "No." ”

After Li Rusong left, Xiao Jin put the letter paper in his hand into the brazier in front of him, looked at the cluster of flames that suddenly burst up, and whispered to himself: "Xiao Lie, Xiao Lie, what do you want to do?"
