Chapter 171 Foreign surnamed Governor

Since Li Xin went outside the pass last time, he was forcibly integrated by Yuwen Zhao. The Yuwen department, which was not very close to him, was dismantled into Yuwen's fourth division. Moreover, because Yuwen Zhao's unit was severely damaged in the attack on Jimen Pass, it could no longer constitute a crushing advantage for the other three divisions. Therefore, according to Li Xin's original calculation, it is unlikely that the Yuwen department will be able to be reintegrated within at least ten years.

In other words, the northern border will have about ten years of peace.

And in these ten years, Li Xin has finished what he should do and then took out his hands to deal with these Xianbei people. However, because the Yunzhou army withdrew from Yunzhou, the defense force in the north suddenly became empty.

This is a very deadly time point, because the capital was at its most critical moment at this time, and Li Xin could not take action to deal with the matter in the north, so he could only rely on the Yunzhou army and Ye Mao to resist these Xianbei people.

One of the Yuwen tribes is not difficult to deal with. If Yuwen Zhao makes a comeback, or Yuwen Tao of the Helan tribe leads his troops south, it will cause great trouble to Li Xin.

It’s not that these Xianbei people can really occupy Jiangbei. In fact, these Yuwen tribe members had already lost the capital to compete for the Central Plains when they were driven out of the pass. However, once these people were allowed to enter the pass, ordinary people in Jiangbei would have a nightmare.

Ye Mao, who was determined to defend the north, would most likely die in the war against the Xianbei people.

Hearing Ye Lin's words, Li Xin frowned and groaned: "The intermarriage between the Zhong Family Times and the Ji Family seems to be a result of experience. I want to solve everything with such a child."

To be honest, with Li Xin's current status, there is no problem with taking a few more concubines, but what he has done over the years has been a bit sorry for Princess Ninth, so he no longer wants to take a concubine to hurt Princess Ninth. So Li Xin frowned and said, "Now there is something in the palace, and I can't get rid of it, so I ask my senior brother to tell Old Man Chong on my behalf and tell him that there is no problem with intermarrying with our family. I have a son and I can get married in a few years. At that time, I can ask him to bring a daughter of the Zong family into the Li family."

Hearing Li Xin's words, even Ye Lin changed his face. He glanced at Li Xin and lowered his voice: "Chang'an, this matter needs to be made clear. Is your son marrying a wife or taking a concubine..."

After Li Xin entered the imperial city, many things changed subtly.

For example, at least 60% of the officials in the capital now think that Li Xin will definitely become the emperor in the future. Since Li Xin will become the emperor, Li Ping, as Li Xin's only son, will become the crown prince in the future.

This "Crown Prince" is definitely not a trivial matter to marry.

Li Xin frowned slightly: "It's too early to say this now. Senior brother told Lao Man Zhong as I said that the situation in the capital has reached this point, and Lao Man Zhong is unlikely to have to use more than a thousand lives in the family to fight against us."

"If he is willing to bow his head, senior brother, please go out of Beijing with my waist card. After finding the Yunzhou army, they will immediately return to Yunzhou. At that time, senior brother, you don't have to go back to Beijing. Just follow them north and coordinate the defense of the northern border."

As he said that, Li Xin glanced at Ye Lin and sighed long: "If we really fight with the Xianbei people, the Yunzhou army may not be able to arrive in the northern border in time. I only have one requirement for my senior brother."

Li Xin reached out and patted Ye Lin on the shoulder, his tone a little heavy.

"Duke Chen, the imperial court, cannot be allowed to die in the north."

Ye Lin nodded silently and said in a deep voice: "I understand, I will go find the old man who grows up now."

"If it goes well, I will leave Beijing to the north tonight."

As he said that, Ye Lin looked up at Li Xin and asked, "Chang'an, how is it like here?"

Li Xin was stunned for a moment, then realized that he was asking what the imperial city looked like now, so he nodded very simply and said, "It's basically in control. If nothing unexpected happens, the new emperor will officially ascend the throne in a while."

Ye Lin nodded and sighed: "It's a pity that I still have something to do, otherwise I would go to Weiyang Palace to watch the ceremony at this time."

As he said that, the Shangshu Ye bowed to Li Xin and said, "That's all, there should be many things in the palace now that you want to work in Chang'an, so I won't disturb you."

Li Xin looked at Ye Lin and said, "There will be no problem in the palace. What I am worried about is the problem in the north. Senior brother, remember to write a letter to Ye Mao and tell him to save his life no matter how."

"There are still many things waiting for him to do in this world."

"I'll go write a letter later."

The two brothers said goodbye under Yong'an Gate. Ye Lin went straight to the big tent that imprisoned Xie Zhongxuantong, while Li Xin on this side walked towards Weiyang Palace with great strides.

At this moment, all the officials had already taken the Sixth Prince from Changle Palace to Weiyang Palace, and had already begun the sealing process. Emperor Yuan Zhao held the national seal in his hand, with a expressionless face, and handed the jade seal to the Sixth Prince.

At this moment, the sixth prince was a young man in his early twelve years old. Facing the emperor's brother holding the national seal, he trembled first, then gritted his teeth and raised his hands, and took over the heavy national seal.

During the whole process, Emperor Yuan Zhao did not say a word and handed over the national seal, he left the main hall of Weiyang Palace and went to the back hall.

The civil and military officials immediately knelt down and shouted long live to the new emperor mountain who was still confused on the throne.

Then, Xiao Huai, who had already changed into red clothes, stood on the imperial stairs and began to read the new emperor's edict to ascend the throne.

The content of the edict is very simple. The general meaning is that all civil and military officials perform their duties. What kind of official positions they were in the past and what kind of official positions they would be in the future will not change much for the time being.

The reason for saying this is to appease these officials in the court. After all, in the next period of time, the court still had to rely on them to operate. Of course, the sentence "All officials will not act rashly for the time being" in the edict is a pure lie.

In fact, various positions in the court will definitely usher in huge changes in the next period of time, especially some key positions, which Li Xin will definitely find a way to take on.

After so many people died in the Southwest Army, it is impossible for them to leave after sending the Sixth Prince to the throne. In fact, the generals and civil servants who came out of the Southwest Army will soon become the most powerful emerging force in the court, and in the foreseeable future, it will even become the most powerful force in the new dynasty.

As for the specific rewards for the Southwest Army this time, it will take until Zhao Jia enters Beijing before it can be finalized slowly.

After reading the first edict, the second edict was followed.

The eunuch Xiao Huai, dressed in red, took out the second edict from the box behind him with a complicated expression, and then held it in his hand and slowly unfolded it.

The content of the edict is very old-fashioned. As soon as the first sentence is said, it is known that it is an edict to be granted an official title.

However, the content of the subsequent edict left anyone speechless in the court.

"The left governor of the Grand Governor's Office is old and unable to be competent. Ask Li Xin, the Marquis of Jing'an, who is loyal, brave, wise, and has a profound virtue. He is appointed as the left governor of the Grand Governor's Office..."

As soon as this edict was issued, there was an uproar in Weiyang Palace, for no other reason...
