Capital.

He Xiangfu.

An old man sat on the Taishi's chair, and in front of him stood several middle-aged men dressed as strategists.

"I really underestimated this Xu family, I thought it was a farmer with no foundation, but I didn't expect to do so many things, that cub named Xu Yunqing is still worshipping in the name of Zhao Boyuan's bad old man, this is to make it clear that he wants to be against my He family."

The old man was dressed in dark purple clothes, his beard and hair were gray but he was in good spirits, and he did not look like a simple character.

If you don't know who he is, you will definitely be deceived by his appearance, and mistakenly think that he is a famous Confucian, but in fact he is just an extremely insidious villain.

"Xiangye, this father and son have rarely gone out since they entered the capital, and our people have no chance to get them, I heard that Xu Wen and Zhao Jin will participate in the exam immediately, should we..."

A man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks said flatteringly to He Chong, he was the most ruthless of all He Chong's advisers, named Hou Xun, and the tragedy of Ji Ruwei's family was his handiwork.

He Chong likes Hou Xun's ruthlessness very much, and trusts him very much, every time he comes up with an idea, He Chong will consider one or two, but this is obviously not a good time.

"No, Kun'er's kid accidentally injured Qi Yu that fool a few years ago and was grounded by the emperor, the emperor keeps an eye on our family, and now it's easy to be caught by the handle, and let them be chic for a while."

The Kun'er in He Chong's mouth is the second prince Qi Kun, his mother is He Chong's second daughter, named Duan Concubine, and Qi Yu's mother is the emperor's beloved Concubine Jing, who is the granddaughter of the late Taishi of the first emperor.

Concubine Jing's family declined as early as the death of the first emperor, but Concubine Jing and the emperor had a friendship that they had gotten along with since childhood, and the emperor married Concubine Jing, who had no help, and was also forced to marry He Xiang's daughter.

In order not to repeat the mistakes of his ancestors and prevent his relatives from interfering in politics, Qi Ren did not stand up, and he always felt ashamed of the woman and son he loved.

Until someone couldn't help but murder Qi Yu, and made a move on Qi Yu's horse, Qi Ren was furious and made Qi Yu the crown prince with a holy decree.

"You said that the Zhao family, the Yuan family, and the Han family are also true, they have to go against Xiangye, they are not interested at all, the world is not yours sooner or later, and these traitors will not be at the disposal of Xiangye at that time."

Hou Xun was ashamed to pat his ass, but he didn't know that he happened to step on He Chong's pain point, if he said that he was a traitor, he He was a traitor.

He Chong couldn't help but think in his heart that if it weren't for the stupidity of the ancestors who were willing to bow down and be vassals, now they wouldn't have to worry about the bad reputation of plotting to usurp the throne.

If you want to talk about the rise and fall of the establishment of this Great Qi, Xu Wen and Xu Yunqing have been reading the book for so many years, and it is only this year that they have fully figured it out, and even some of the hidden ones have been told to them one by one on the way to Beijing.

The Yuanjia, He, and Han families, the founding heroes of the Great Qi Dynasty, had a very good relationship with the founding emperor at that time.

Later, after the four ancestors died one after another, the descendants of the He family were not satisfied with the momentary glory and sent the woman into the palace, in a vain attempt to give birth to an heir to compete for the supreme position.

I have to say that the literati have far-reaching strategies, and with the great help of the He family, one of the emperors of the Great Qi generation is the puppet of the He family.

Daqi also went to corruption from that time, foreign relatives interfered in politics, the government was chaotic and the people were not happy, and the northern and southern borders took advantage of the weakness to attack Daqi.

At that time, the Xiang family and the Yuan family had to let the He family disrupt the government in order to protect the frontier, and it was not until the war in the south subsided that Yuan Xuan's great-ancestor returned to the court to suppress the momentum of the He family.

Since then, the evil forces represented by the He family and the royalists led by the Yuan family have fought in the court.

This situation has continued until the first emperor, the first emperor is a person with little talent, and even a little cowardly, the only advantage is that he has a good vision.

not only set the current emperor Qi Ren as the crown prince, but also selected a very talented teacher Zhao Boyuan for him.

After that, the He family had a premonition that things were going in a direction that was not going in their favor.

So the He family, who have always been ruthless, didn't know how to use any means to rebel against a general next to the old Yasukuni Gong, this general

The surname is Ding.

A war with Nanyue not only made the veteran Yasukuni Gong die on the battlefield, but also made the general named Ding He win a big victory, and became a myth in the southern army, and was recommended to the post of temporary acting general.

The purpose of the He family is to grasp the military power, how can they only deal with the Yuan family, and then they also framed the Xiang family for collaborating with the enemy, because the emperor trusted the Xiang family and the evidence was insufficient.

Because of this series of accidents, when the first emperor took time out, the southern border only recognized Ding He as a general, otherwise he would make trouble in the military camp, and the first emperor had no choice but to compromise temporarily.

At this time, the first emperor's body was terminally ill, and before his death, the people of He Xiang's faction continued to dissuade the first emperor from removing his position as a general.

In a fit of rage, the first emperor beheaded several imperial historians who had been admonished, and after issuing a strong decree to restore the position of the old general, he drove to the west.

The first emperor died suddenly, the court was in turmoil and chaos, and the Yuan, Xiang, and Zhao families and the characters they cultivated over the years supported Qi Ren to ascend to the throne, and the year name was Yongle.

Not to mention Xu Wen's father and son, Zhao Jindu heard his father talk about these things for the first time, he only knew that the He family had done many bad things when he was in Beijing before, but he didn't expect that the old Jingguo Gong was also killed by them.

Taishi's Mansion, in a quiet courtyard.

This is where Xu Wen's father and son and Zhao Jin lived, and after returning from Fucheng, Zhao Jin didn't know what he had done to study very hard, and even moved to live with Xu Wen and his son.

"Second Master, Second Master Xu, Young Master Yunqing, the master said that you should go to the study and have a distinguished guest."

The voice of the slave outside the door disturbed the three people who were reading the book seriously, and after hearing the slave's report, the three of them were a little puzzled, got up and tidied up their clothes before following the slave to Zhao Taishi's study.

Zhao Taishi's study was in the front yard, and several people quickly arrived at the door of the study, and there were several men in civilian clothes standing at the door of the study.

They didn't look very easy to get along with with knives in their hands, and Zhao Jin wanted to go in as usual, but was stopped by Xu Wen.

"Uncle Zhao is personally accompanied, and the defense is so tight, maybe it's the one, you better be more restrained."

Xu Wen and Xu Yunqing had some conjectures about the identity of the distinguished guests along the way, and now it is determined that only the emperor would be so careful and pompous.

Zhao Jin saw Xu Wen pointing to the sky, and immediately cheered up, he had seen the emperor, more than once, but he was afraid if he hadn't seen him for many years.

The three of them knocked on the door in a proper manner, and soon a handsome man opened the door, and this person was the crown prince Qiyu.

"The student has seen the saint."

Zhao Jin came in and looked up slightly to see Qi Ren, who was sitting in the seat and looked at the three people who came in with a smile on his face, and his eyes fell on Xu Yunqing.

"Get up, Zhao Jin, I see that you have grown a lot over the years since you left Beijing, and your temperament has been a little more restrained."

Qi Ren and Zhao Ting are not much different in age, Zhao Jin was his two followers when he was a child, and later went to the north, and he hasn't seen him for many years.

"Look at what you said, this is a cut and a wisdom, and I am not so easily fooled now."

Hearing the same kind voice as before, Zhao Jin couldn't help but sigh again, Qi Ren suddenly found that Zhao Jin was very suitable to be the imperial history, just this shameless energy, and he would definitely not lose if he quarreled with those ministers of the DPRK and China.

"You are Xu Wen?"
