In the past, the brothers and sisters of the Yan family didn't take Gu Zhao, the magistrate, seriously. Even after knowing his identity, Yan Ya still refused to give up on this man. Boss Yan also wanted to help her sister realize her wish, but during this time Too many things happened, even Fang Jixin and Boss Xiong went to the underworld to report to B, and when they saw Gu Zhao at this time, he still looked like a little boy, but in the eyes of the brothers and sisters of the Yan family, he was the boss of Bixiong And scary characters.

I don't know if there is a telepathy, but Gu Zhao, who was talking to Yan Mu, suddenly looked towards the teahouse, and Yan Ya subconsciously shrank her head back. At this time, if the people in Yaochang City see her appearance, they will Thought that Yan Ya's shell had changed into a soul, how could she still be a tigress.

After a long while, Yan Ya tentatively poked her head out, and looked at the place where Gu Zhao had been before, and found that no one was there, and she couldn't see anyone else, so Yan Ya was relieved.

Boss Yan saw that my sister saw Gu Zhao like a mouse seeing a cat, and wanted to laugh at her courage now, but after thinking about it, let's stop thinking about it, he is not much better than my sister, how dare the two brothers and sisters see each other now? What to do, before Gu Zhao came to clean them up, their father would probably break the legs of the brothers and sisters so that they could be kept at home forever, and Gu Zhao didn't need to do it himself.

But thinking about the gang of young masters and ladies who were even worse than them before, their heads fell to the ground or they went to plant trees and mine mines. Boss Yan's mood has improved a lot, and a happy life must be found through comparison.

The Spring Festival didn’t start until after the Lantern Festival, and the people in the government office and Yaochang Mansion began to get busy again for the new year’s livelihood. Apart from continuing to build roads, Gu Zhao also had to prepare for the upcoming spring plowing. Although the workshops and The handicraft industry can invigorate the economy, but in the final analysis, land and food are the foundation of the people. Gu Zhao still leaves Yaochang Mansion from time to time to inspect the counties and villages below, how to maximize food production under the existing conditions, and start from deep plowing. From seed selection, seedling raising, to irrigation and fertilization, Gu Zhao will check every item one by one.

Just when Yan Mu would disappear for a while and would usually be busy with Gu Zhao, the first imperial decree issued by the emperor after the year was to order the King of Southwest to enter the capital. This matter could not allow Yan Chongshan to hesitate at all, unless he dared to resist Do not obey.

Yan Chongshan had to prepare to go to Beijing after receiving the imperial decree. During this period of time, his complexion was extremely bad, his mouth was bubbling, and he was anxious to get angry. There was no whereabouts of Yan Mu. Driven by various factors, Yan Chongshan became more and more suspicious of Yan Xiao and the Zhu family. He was the least willing to doubt Yan Xiao's son, because compared to other sons, especially Yan Mu, the legitimate son, Yan Xiao was the one who taught him personally. They were cultivated with care, but Yan Mu is gone, who will benefit the most?

Not to mention Yan Chongshan, even those who are loyal to him around him can't help but doubt Yan Xiao when Yan Mu, the eldest son, disappears. These people think that Yan Xiao is too impatient, after all he His father, Yan Zhongshan, is still alive and well. They actually see it more clearly than Yan Chongshan. When Yan Mu was forced to flee the southwest and was seriously injured, the masterminds behind it were Yan Xiao and the Zhu family, and only their princes were unwilling to doubt Yan resemble.

Of course, they are also very clear that the existence of Yan Mu itself blocks Yan Xiao's way, so Yan Xiao's attack on him is understandable, but they shouldn't deceive themselves like the prince and hope that the two brothers can get along well. It is even more obvious that sooner or later there will be a battle between the two brothers, and now it is just Yan Xiao who takes advantage of Yan Mu's lack of solidarity and strikes first.

But the situation at this time is different from last time. This time when Yan Mu returned to the southwest, he was not only Ping Nanbo of the imperial court, but also the son of the Southwestern prince conferred by the imperial court. Yan Xiao's move was tantamount to a slap in the face of the imperial court. The imperial court already suspected the prince. Loyal to Southwest, Yan Xiao's actions just gave the court an excuse and excuse, which made them a little disappointed with Yan Xiao, and didn't see the big picture.

Yan Zhongshan called his staff to discuss matters before entering Beijing, he hesitated in his heart: "Do you think Xiao Er will really join hands with Da Qi?"

If Yan Mu told Yan Chongshan about this, even if Yan Chongshan saw Yan Xiao standing with Daqiren with his own eyes, he would still find reasons for Yan Xiao's defense, but after Yan Mu left Southwest, he deliberately put such a The clues were disclosed to Yan Xiao's competitors, and then they sent them to Yan Zhongshan. I didn't believe it once or twice, and the number of times was too many. In addition, Yan Mu disappeared without a trace, as if the whole person disappeared out of thin air. The cloud of suspicion in Zhong Shan's heart expanded little by little.

The staff members looked at each other in blank dismay, not knowing how to answer the prince's question, because they knew that even if the prince suspected the eldest son in his heart, he was actually unwilling to admit it.

One of the aides bit the bullet and said, "Maybe it's just a misunderstanding."

Another staff member said: "This matter depends on how the prince makes a decision. The imperial court obviously has long been dissatisfied with us in the Southwest. The title of Shi Ziye is the best indication of this situation. The prince should make a decision earlier."

Whether to continue to be loyal to the court, or to establish himself as a king and no longer accept the jurisdiction of the court, this question was actually raised by the staff when Yan Mu was first named Baron Pingnan, but Yan Chongshan's character was a bit indecisive , not willing to go to that step, he hopes to continue to maintain the original model of getting along with the court.

It's a pity that this is just Yan Zhongshan's wishful thinking. When the next Southwest King takes over, will he continue to follow this path?If Yan Xiao hadn't had so many different intentions, he wouldn't have made such small moves, and even stretched his hand into the court. His son was much more ambitious than himself, to the point where the emperor couldn't tolerate it.

Hearing such words, Yan Zhongshan waved his hands resolutely and said: "It is normal for Your Majesty to have doubts about us, but our southwest branch and the imperial court have always been on the same side, so I don't want to hear such words. I know that I have such thoughts. There are quite a few people there, but when we get to that point, the Southwest and the imperial court will tear each other apart. Do you think that the Southwest will be able to get better? That is an excuse for the imperial court to send troops to the Southwest. Caught in the flames of war, this king does not want to see such a situation happen."

The aides sighed in their hearts. Compared with the eldest son, the prince is much kinder at heart, but it is a pity that the sons of the prince are more ruthless than the other. Even the eldest son Yan Mu may not be soft-hearted.

Yan Chongshan saw that the staff couldn't give any advice, so he could only sigh heavily in the end: "Forget it, it's the king's fault, it's the king who didn't take good care of the child Mu'er, and caused him to suffer so much. , this king will plead guilty to His Majesty when he comes to Beijing, no matter how His Majesty punishes me, I will bear it."

"My lord..."

Yan Zhongshan asked the staff not to persuade them anymore, but gave them another task: "After the king leaves, you have to take good care of Xiao Er for the king. During the time when the king is in Beijing, I don't want Xiao Er to cause any trouble. , do we know?"

"Yes, my lord, my subordinate obeys the order, and will definitely guard the southwest for my lord."

"There is also the Zhu family." Yan Zhongshan thought about adding the Zhu family. During this time, he was also thinking about it. Xiao Er came to this point, maybe it was more because of the Zhu family's instigation. Xiao'er should be separated from Zhu's family, he didn't believe that the son he taught would be so cruel that even his own brothers would dare to kill him.

"Yes, my lord."

In addition to telling a few staff members, these words also told several important generals in the Southwest Army not to relax their defense while he was away.

Before Yan Zhongshan left, he also called Yan Xiao, the most valued son, over, and tried to persuade him for a long time. Yan Zhongshan worked hard, saw Yan Xiao's face of being educated and listened, and Yan Chongshan was also very pleased. , Patted his son on the shoulder and said: "Don't blame the father for being too strict with you some time ago. It is really not easy to sit in the position of the king of the Southwest. Our every move involves the safety of countless people behind us. The father also hopes that Xiao Er, if you can hold on to the mission of our lineage and protect the people here, my father knows what you can do, Xiao Er, right?"

"Father..." Yan Xiao was moved to tears, and knelt in front of his father and said, "My son is not filial. He always makes his father worry about his son. This time, he is tired of his father's coming to Beijing. The son will definitely remember his father. King's words."

Yan Chongshan was also moved, and pulled his son up from the ground: "My father has always loved and respected your mother and concubine, but my father also hopes that Xiao Er, you will remember that it is one thing to love and respect your mother and concubine, but it is another to balance local forces." The thing is, these local forces don’t need one family to be big, but they need to restrain each other and restrain each other, so that you can secure the position of Southwest King, do you understand?”

He hoped that Yan Xiao would not rely too much on the Zhu family, otherwise, if Yan Xiao became the king of the Southwest, the Zhu family would dominate and even want to overpower the King of the Southwest.

Yan Xiao nodded: "Father, my son knows."

On the surface, Yan Xiao has been taught honestly, but when he left the study of the Southwest King, his eyes instantly became cold and stern. His father was still the same, and he seemed to value his son the most, but so far he has not been able to make him a prince. Yan Mu's miscellaneous, Zhuang made him a joke as soon as he came back, and there were several other younger brothers who were desperately pulling his hind legs. Didn't these fathers see it?Is this how much he values ​​himself?

Now the only ones who really help him are the mother concubine and the Zhu family. Only they are truly one-hearted with him. They will prosper and destroy each other. The father wants to separate him from the Zhu family. When he takes the position of King of Southwest , the Zhu family is his vassal, what else can he do besides listening to the Southwest King?

It was stupid for him to stay away from the Zhu family at this time, and he was fooled by his father and the other younger brothers.

Yan Xiao sneered darkly again, it's great that the father is going to Beijing, this trip can't be returned in a short time, he wants to take the Southwest while the father is away The decision that the father could not make was made by his son, and what the father could not do, his son could also do it.

As for what will happen to the people of Yan Zhongshan in the capital, Yan Xiao didn't think about it at all. Isn't this the result of his father's pursuit of benevolence and benevolence.
