Records of the King of Xin'an County

Compared to Prince Xin'an's gloom, Princess Changning accepted the wedding date very calmly.However, she still did not forget to propose to the saint to build a county prince's mansion on both sides of the princess mansion.This is what the sage promised her at the beginning. In the future, the Princess Mansion will live next to Xin'an County King's Mansion and Tianshui County King's Mansion.If she hadn't heard the good news at the beginning, she wouldn't have walked out of her emotional pain quickly, and now it's time to fulfill her promise.

The saint looked at her deeply, and couldn't help thinking of Li Heng's family far away in Guangzhou: "Build Xuanqi's Prince's Mansion first. As for Jing Xing, let's talk about it when he comes back." Building the Prince's Mansion in Xin'an is easy to say, It is difficult to explain the construction of Tianshui County Prince's Mansion together.After all, there are no other county kings in Chang'an who have not been given a mansion to use it as a cover to cover up a little bit.If someone is interested in asking about it, he will inevitably think too much, and it will definitely ruin his plan.

"Alright, I hope that at the end of the year, Brother's Prince's Mansion will take shape." Princess Changning said with a smile, "At that time, Grandpa and Auntie will not only be able to visit the Princess' Mansion, but also visit the Prince's Mansion." Look. Speaking of which, do you still remember that the lake in the Princess Mansion is connected to the left and right neighbors? How about widening the connecting ditches so that we can go boating in the future?"

Seeing her in such high spirits, the sage and Li Hui naturally wouldn't let her down.Although Li Hui had no interest in building the Prince's Mansion in Xin'an County or moving out of Prince Pu's Mansion, he had to accept his sister's kindness.After all, leaving home is a matter of time.Rather than hurriedly begging for the county prince's mansion at that time and causing any changes, it would be better to be sure now.

"Uncle, let your nephew take charge of this matter together. It is also quite interesting to build the county palace for yourself. In addition, there is a lot of wood and stone left to build the princess mansion, which can also save some manpower and material resources. "Li Hui got close to the general supervisor and knew that they were preparing to build the Daming Palace according to the holy order.If both sides are rushed to start construction together, the county palace will naturally be neglected, it is better to build it according to your own ideas earlier.

"It's all up to you." The saint smiled, "I will put you in Zongzheng Temple in a while, and you happen to be free, so it's good to help a group of generals as prison. Moreover, I thought your calligraphy The painting is very good... Speaking of it, it seems to be enough for your grandfather's family, and it is worthy of being taught by the third sister-in-law." The grandfather he was talking about was naturally Yan Lide.Whether it is Yan Lide or Yan Liben, they are well-known masters of Danqing, and both have served as master craftsmen, and they have a lot of experience in the construction of cities, palaces, mausoleums and other buildings.

Li Hui thought for a while: "My nephew didn't think about it before. If I have the opportunity, I should ask my grandfather for advice." Although the Yan family is determined to separate from the Yan family, how can the blood relationship be completely cut off?Moreover, Yan Balang is a mutual friend of him and Wang Zixian, if there is a suitable opportunity, they should also hope that they can reconcile.

A few days later, taking advantage of the vacancies that have been dismissed one after another, the saint started to promote his cronies again.Those officials of his East Palace back then, the highest-ranking ones had been transferred from the governor of Jingzhao Prefecture to the Minister of the Household Department. Naturally, the successor governor was the talent he had favored for a long time, and the governors of Henan Prefecture and Taiyuan Prefecture had also replaced him. people.Others may be sent to other prefectures—especially Shengzhou, where King Hejian is located, and Shazhou, where King Yong'an is located, as governors, or they may be promoted sequentially in the court. The situation is very good.

During this period, Yan Lide, Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry, made an appointment as an official.In terms of age, he was comparable to veteran ministers such as Wu Guogong Qin An and Jian Guogong Xu Ye, but because he was good at literature but not martial arts, he was already very weak and sick.The sage took pity on him because of his illness, so he allowed him to be an official and promoted his younger brother Yan Liben to be Minister of the Ministry of Industry.

In the eyes of the old foxes, compared with the changes in the Six Departments and the appointment and dismissal of governors and governors, the changes in the remaining mid- and low-level positions are almost negligible.Even if the young Xin'an County King had been promoted from Dalizheng of the fifth rank to Zongzheng Shaoqing of the fourth rank, what they saw was not this young man, but King Jing of Zongzhengqing.As for the vacancies left and right to pick up relics and make up queries, the supervisory censor quietly added a few more people, which is hardly worth mentioning.

However, what old foxes consider to be insignificant matters, to some people it is a thunderbolt from the blue.When Yang Qian, who was successfully promoted to Zhongshu Sheng Youbuque, put on his gown and became a close minister of the saint with great contentment, he suddenly found an all-too-familiar face among a group of strangers in Wu Yaya—— ——The eighth-rank dark green gown that he originally wore was replaced by the seventh-rank light green gown like him, with a smile on his face, calm and at ease.

At this moment, Yang Qian could hardly conceal his surprise and the jealousy welling up in his heart.The reason why he was able to get this good position was due to the friendship between Yang Shijing and Zhongshu Shilang, as well as Yang Jieyu's sympathy from the palace to save Sacred Heart.But what is this person based on?In just a few months, he was promoted from the humble county captain of Jing County to the supervisory censor, and now he has become a close minister of the emperor? !

Is it the recommendation of Li Hui, the king of Xin'an County?Or is it his own holy family? !

——No matter which point, it is enough to make people jealous.Back then, if they knew that Prince Xin'an would be so favored, Empress Du and Princess Changning were even more favored, why would the Yang family have turned against this mother and daughter for the sake of Concubine Yang Xian and King Qi?

Right now Yang Jieyu is living in a difficult life in the palace, if she wants to get through the day smoothly or even turn around, wouldn't it depend on Empress Du's fairness in dealing with things?It's a pity that Queen Du is only "just".Due to the grievances accumulated in the early years, she and the mother and daughter of Princess Changning are determined not to trust the Yang family anymore, let alone get involved in the struggle between Concubine Yang Xian and Yang Jieyu.

"Congratulations to my cousin for fulfilling his wish." Wang Zixian smiled and said softly, "We will be colleagues in the future."

"You have also been promoted to You Bu Que?"

"No, I was ordered by the sage to make up Zuo Buque of Menxia Province." Zuo Buque and Zuo Suyi belonged to Menxia Province, and Menxia Province's duty was to refute and review all imperial edicts and all official documents of Shangshu Province. Dali Temple trial results and so on.As Zuo Buque and Zuo Shiyi, they are close ministers and officials who follow the saint at any time to taunt and admonish.

On the surface, it seems that the responsibilities of repairing the faults on the left and right are exactly the same as those of picking up the lost things, but the fighting power of the group of people under the door is already higher than that of Yushitai, and they hold the real "denial" power.Therefore, the combat effectiveness of Zuo Buque and Zuo Suyi is even more extraordinary.The saint specially dedicated the "confidant and beloved" prince here, and also has plans to continue to hone his "combat power".In the future, it may be said that this warrior will not be stage-frightened even against the senior officials of the Shangshu Province and the Zhongshu Province?

Of course, Wang Zixian deeply understands the expectations of the sage for himself, and also understands that he should continue to exercise his tongue.After a few days, people around will probably understand that his Zuo Buque is definitely not in vain.As for Yang Qian's Youbuque, he has been the school secretary for three or four years, and he is used to wearing a hypocritical mask on weekdays.If the two disagreed and accused each other in front of the saint, Wang Zixian was almost certain that the other party would not be able to survive his words.

"Congratulations." Yang Qian hated secretly, but had to smile gracefully on his face.

At this moment, he could still bear it. After he followed Shengjia for a whole day and witnessed how favored Li Hui, the king of Xin'an County, and how the humble Prince Xian was favored by the saint, the undercurrent in his heart surged. It couldn't be stopped anymore.

When he returned home that night, Yang Qian smashed half of his study.Those decorations were originally his favorite things, but as soon as he thought of Wang Zixian's praise at the beginning, he became angry and smashed them all.Even so, his anger still hasn't dissipated, and when he heard the servant report that Cheng Wei had come, evil thoughts suddenly arose in his heart.

"Jiusi, you are the supervisory censor now, maybe you can help me find out the shortcomings of Wang Zixian! It would be great if you can make him lose his favor!" He had no idea that he was gnashing his teeth now. It was as terrifying as a ghost with a blue face and fangs. How could it have the demeanor of that young man with a top-notch head?

Cheng Wei, who was dressed in a dark blue robe, frowned: "Brother Mingdu, Wang Zhiyuan is now the saint's favorite, and it is inappropriate to confront him at this time. Only when he loses his favor can we attack him with one blow." Medium. Otherwise, it’s just that I provoked the disgust of the saint for no reason.”

"Heh, isn't Jiusi scared?" Yang Qian smiled coldly, "Don't forget, I found your current position of supervisory censor for you!!"

Cheng Wei was silent for a while, and replied: "Brother Mingdu is in a bad mood today, why don't you take a rest earlier. I will come to visit some other day—I will be visiting other states in a few days. If Brother Mingdu or Yang Shangshu If there is an order, I dare not refuse it." Although he is a student from a poor family, he is also the first Jinshi, so naturally he will not act on Yang Qian's face like ordinary scholars.

After he resolutely left, Yang Qian had come to his senses, deeply regretful in his heart.It was with great difficulty that he established a nearly perfect image in the eyes of Cheng Wei and others, but now, with a careless move, most of it has almost collapsed.A child from such an outstanding poor family as Cheng Wei is extremely proud of himself.If they show a little contempt, they will be firmly remembered in their hearts.After a long period of time, there is no telling when they will turn against each other!

He was thinking about how to reconcile with Cheng Wei, when Yang Shijing, who heard that he was making trouble all night, called him over.The father and son discussed in the inner hall, and did not shy away from Mrs. Wei.On the contrary, Mrs. Wei has always disliked these foreign affairs, so she sat inside holding the Buddhist beads.However, the words of the father and son outside were still passed on verbatim——

"Recently, you've been acting too hastily! It's obviously a great joy to be promoted to Youbu Que, why are you so irritable?!"

"Grandfather, I know that Wang Zixian has also replaced Zuo Buque, and the saint seems to intend to continue to promote him! Maybe in two or three years, he will become the confidant of the saint..."

"So what about Zuo Buque? It's just a mere seventh-rank official! You have to look further away! Alas, if Ba Niang gave birth to a prince this time, let alone You Buque, it's Tong Shishe People, living room people can also be found for you!! With the help of Ba Niang, why not be afraid of a prince offering?! You should watch in the future, Yan Dalang from Cheng Guogong's mansion, and Qin Dalang from Wu Guogong's mansion !! Even the king of Xin'an County!"

"Grandpa, it is impossible for Wang Zixian to become the support of the Yang family now, and he will definitely become our confidant in the future! Even ordinary people, it is impossible for them to say that the two marriages are fruitless, and still have no grievances! He will definitely What evil intentions are hidden, must not be taken lightly!"

"After all, you just can't get past the hurdle of the prince's offer! In my opinion, he is the best whetstone to sharpen your temperament! Forget it, let's not mention this, the people around you That Cheng Jiusi is pretty good. Our Eleven Niang and Twelve Niang are about to reach the age of Ji, what do you think?"

Mrs. Wei, with half-closed eyes, pinched the Buddhist beads in her hand, and after a while of silence, Fang silently recited the scriptures again.No one can profit from her Ba Niang! ——No matter who it is, it is impossible to use her daughter again! !

Cheng Wei, who was sitting at home writing a secret letter to the prince, suddenly felt a chill down his spine for some reason.He looked up at the sky, it was already early April, why did he still feel the chill?
