A few days later, the army returned to the court, the whole city celebrated, and the streets were empty.

His Royal Highness the King of Jin finally officially returned to Beijing.

Dongjiang also presented a congratulatory form to show his surrender.

Since then, the new dynasty has been unified from legal principles to substance.

…

The crisp autumn days were the perfect time to go out for fun, but Xu Yin was still in confinement, so he could only place a small stove and food box on the porch, pretending to be on a picnic, and he was enjoying himself.

"The King of Dongjiang has passed away. My brother-in-law said that after all matters are settled, he will bring his family to Beijing for the Chinese New Year." Yan Ling chatted with her while peeling oranges.

Xu Yin raised his head to bathe in the sunshine and responded: "It's not easy for King Dongjiang to last for so long."

"Yes, when we went to Dongjiang back then, he was already unable to take charge of the board. He has been doing this for another four years!"

"Fortunately, it took these four years for Dongjiang to be safe and stable." Xu Yin took the orange slice and ate it slowly, "So, my brother-in-law has decided to give up the feudal country?"

The Li family was different from other separatist warlords. When the Zhou Dynasty was established, they were given the privilege of autonomy. For so many years, Dongjiang was like a small kingdom. Although they claimed vassalage and paid tribute, they were not under jurisdiction.

Yan Ling handed her a handkerchief and wiped her hands: "The Dongjiang clan is too strong, and my brother-in-law has made up his mind to deal with it over the years. However, the roots are there, and it is impossible to eradicate them without wavering. After much thought, he accepted my proposal.

suggestion."

Eliminate feudal states and return to great unification.

Xu Yin sighed: "Brother-in-law is righteous."

Not everyone has the courage to abandon a century-old foundation, even if it is slowly decaying.

Yan Ling said: "So I allowed him to become the King of Wu, and he will be hereditary."

Since the founding of the New Dynasty, there has been no truly hereditary and non-replaceable title. The original King of Hexing and the current King of Yu have the highest title, but they were only hereditary for three generations and were demoted.

Li Wen is willing to remove the feudal state and avoid a war, which is worthy of this hereditary replacement.

"So I can see my sister next year." Xu Yin smiled happily.

Yan Ling smiled and nodded: "When the family comes to Beijing, they will have playmates at dawn."

Xu Si's son was born in spring and is one and a half years older than Tianming. They can go to school and play together in the future.

"By the way, the second sister's wedding date has been set, and Prince Yu and Mrs. Qiao will come to Beijing soon." Xu Yin said.

Yan Ling responded: "I will give them a big gift."

Chu Jiu is one year older than him, and Xu Jia is also eighteen. Their marriage has been delayed due to the war, and they want to get it done before the year before.

The next thing made Yan Ling hesitate: "Has Princess Changning written to you recently?"

"What's wrong?" Xu Yin heard an unusual meaning.

Yan Ling said: "Alu told me that he wants to marry Changning."

Xu Yin was shocked: "When did they get together?"

To say that they had met before, when they were in Nanyuan, Alu came to congratulate her on her birthday, and Princess Changning was also there. But she remembered that these two people had never spoken in private at all!

Yan Ling said: "Previously, there was no room at Nanyuan, so Chang Ning helped escort a military supply..."

Xu Yin was a little confused: "They match their identities very well, but..."

In the past few years, Changning has managed Yingtian County very well, and Nanyuan has gradually become involved. Xu Yin has considered this matter and wants to ask Emperor Mingde to make an exception and give her a divorce...

….

"What did Prince Liang say?" she asked.

"A Lu said that he wanted to marry a woman who could rule the Great Liang with him. He wanted to marry you because of this. Now he feels that Changning is very suitable. Zhou died last week. If she marries to the Great Liang

It is her home; secondly, Changning has a broad vision and understands government affairs, and is just the princess he needs."

Xu Yin still hesitated: "But marriage is not only suitable. This marriage requires Chang Ning to leave his hometown. Without love, I'm afraid it won't last long."

Yan Ling smiled: "How do you know they don't have feelings? I know A Lu to a certain extent. If he didn't like Chang Ning, he wouldn't tell me. He knows that Chang Ning's identity is very special.

However, after marrying the princess of the previous dynasty, his position has changed subtly. He has always assessed the situation and is willing to take this risk, which shows that Changning is very much in line with his wishes."

That's right. Although Princess Changning and she love each other as sisters, their status is the biggest obstacle. Not everyone has the courage to marry the princess of the previous dynasty.

"Then wait for her to write a letter." Xu Yin said, "As long as Chang Ning is willing, we will grant it to them."

After saying that, she sighed: "I originally wanted to see where a woman in power would go, but if Chang Ning gets married, I won't be able to see it anymore."

[To be honest, I have been using @@ recently to read and catch up on updates, change sources, and read aloud with many different sounds. Available on Android and Apple.]

Yan Ling said: "I have considered this matter, and the most fundamental way is to let her manage the government as an exception. What about other women? If they can't take the imperial examination, they can't join the officialdom. There is no system. In the end, they are just a flash in the pan."

This is true. Xu Yin silently ate a piece of orange.

Yan Ling added: "The so-called "women on the outside dominate the inside" has been a habit for thousands of years, and it is also the law that is most suitable for the present. Even if we change it by human power, I am afraid it will not last long. If we really want to change, we must find the root cause.

The rules will become a law that can be passed down through the ages. Ayin, don’t be anxious, let’s take our time.”

There are no words of love more affectionate than keeping her ideal in mind. Xu Yin couldn't help but smile.

"good."

The two of them talked about trivial matters, and the time was quiet and peaceful.

After Xu Yin was out of confinement and the children held a full-moon banquet, Yan Ling took them back to Prince Jin's Mansion.

This is what he told the empress: "Ayin and I both want to live a relaxed and happy life for a few years, and also ask Tianming to get in touch with people and things outside so as not to develop a temperament that does not know hardships, so it is better to set up the heir a few years later."

Bar."

Anyway, the emperor and his wife only had one child, and there would be no fight over the throne in the future, so Emperor Mingde agreed.

Speaking of which, Yan Ling chose Prince Jin's Mansion as soon as he came to Beijing. Who knew that he had been preparing for it for so long, and he went off to war just over a month after getting married, and he didn't even live in it properly.

The two of them took their children back to the palace. As soon as they entered, they saw Qingxuan drinking with someone in the concierge.

Xu Yin was stunned for a moment, then walked over and saluted: "Taoist Master."

The sloppy old man who was drinking happily glanced at her and responded with a smile: "Hey, I'm back." In a familiar tone.

The steward came over and wanted to scold him, but saw that the prince and princess not only refused to be polite, but also sat like an uncle - but Yan Ling stopped him.

"Is the Taoist priest here to repay the favor of the meal?" Xu Yin asked.

"Yes, and no." The old Taoist took a sip of wine, "The world is in turmoil, and the Emperor Star cannot return to its throne. The old Taoist is just arranging the way of heaven and repaying the favor."

Xu Yin thought for a while and looked at Yan Ling: "Is it him?"

The old Taoist laughed and threw down the wine glass in his hand: "It can be, or it can't be. The Emperor Star is never a certain person, but the will of the people and the trend of the people."

After saying that, he stood up and patted Qingxuan: "Let's go! It's over here. Let's go back to the mountains with my master to practice cultivation!"

Qingxuan agreed, picked up his knife, and followed the old man out.

Xu Yin turned around and saw that he was standing at the door with fists in his hands and a salute. The master and apprentice took long strides and quickly merged into the crowd and disappeared.
