Chapter 190: When I wake up, the sky has changed

The Taikang Dynasty, which lasted for ten years, ended in the end.

Looking at the entire Taikang Dynasty, although it only had about half of the life span of the Chengde Dynasty, the entire Jin Dynasty was stable in the ten years of the Taikang Dynasty, and there was no major event in the border areas. The emperor did not build a large number of construction, nor did he impose heavy taxes, and also reduced and exempted many local taxes. Overall, under the leadership of the Emperor Taikang, the founding monarch, the Great Jin Dynasty was still improving.

However, the administration of Taikang Dynasty was much looser than that of Chengde Dynasty. After all, the emperor's character was here, and he was unwilling to turn against some vested interests. Therefore, there was much corruption in the local area, and the administration of officials was much inferior to that of the previous dynasty.

This also led to many policies of the Taikang Dynasty falling behind the people.

But no matter what, these things have passed.

The Taikang Dynasty has come to an end. The "Daily Notes" of Emperor Taikang has also recorded the "Daily Notes" bit by bit, and will be left to future generations to comment slowly in the future.

But no matter what, in ten years, the emperor did nothing bad.

After the emperor collapsed, the palace people in the palace knelt near the Weiyang Palace and cried all night, but Li Xin did not have the intention to kneel in the Weiyang Palace to make a show. He stood at the gate of the Weiyang Palace for a long time, and in the middle of the night, he set off home.

However, at this time, the eldest princess naturally had no way to leave. Li Xin returned to the Jing'an Marquis Mansion alone.

The person who picked him up was Chen Shiliu with only one arm.

After Chen Shiliu parked the carriage in the backyard, he glanced at Li Xin and whispered: "Mr. Marquis, you haven't finished eating yet. I'll ask them to prepare some dishes for you?"

Since being called into the palace in the morning, Li Xin did not eat much this day. He nodded and said, "Cook some food and make a pot of wine."

Chen Shiliu nodded and went down to prepare to go.

Not long after, a few side dishes were served on the low table in Li Xin's study. It is worth mentioning that due to the personal guidance of the Marquis of Jing'an, the chefs of Jing'an's mansion were very good. In recent years, any chefs who went out of the Marquis of Jing'an's mansion were very popular in Yonglefang, and the officials and nobles rushed to ask for them.

Chen Shiliu put a few dishes in front of Li Xin, arranged the wine again, and then set off.

As soon as he walked to the door, he heard the hoarse voice of his marquis.

"Sit down and have a few drinks with me."

Chen Shiliuming was a servant of the Jing'an Marquis' Mansion, but in fact he was Li Xin's subordinate and Li Xin's comrade in the Yulin Guard. After following Li Xin for more than ten years, the two of them could be considered friends in a sense.

If Zhao Jia or Mu Ying were in the capital, Li Xin would not have called Chen Shiliu to drink with him, but now these people are all in the southwest.

Chen Shiliu hesitated for a moment, and finally lowered his head deeply: "Then I will get another pair of bowls and chopsticks."

After a while, Chen Shiliu, who had one arm, sat opposite Li Xin with some discomfort. Because one hand was not very convenient, Li Xin personally poured him a glass of wine.

Marquis Jing'an was in a heavy mood and had a complicated mind at this moment. He picked up the wine glass and clinked a glass with Chen Shiliu.

"Full drink."

After saying that, he raised his head and drank it all.

Chen Shiliu also followed him and finished drinking the glass of strong wine in one sip.

Marquis Jing'an put down his wine glass and sniffed out a sip of wine.

"Sixteen, in my heart..."

He only said six words, but did not continue. He poured Chen Shiliu and himself full of wine, and said in a muffled voice: "Don't do it."

Chen Shiliu didn't say anything, and simply drank another drink with Li Xin.

The two of them just drink one cup after another, and they have been drinking for more than an hour, and it is about to dawn.

Marquis Jing'an's face was flushed and his whole body was shaking, and he was about to be unconscious when he saw it.

Chen Shiliu didn't drink alcohol on weekdays, and his face turned red now, but he could barely hold on and his body did not shake.

Finally, Li Xin couldn't hold on anymore.

He has drunk many times in the past ten years, but he has not really drunk many times, and this time it is one of them.

He stood up from the low table, stood up shakingly, and prepared to walk towards his bed in the study. Chen Shiliu was in a better condition than him, so he hurriedly stepped forward to support Li Xin.

The two staggered to the edge of the bed.

Li Xin sat down on the bed and closed his eyes.

"Tell Chen Gang..."

Chen Shiliu was also a little drunk, but immediately woke up a little when he heard this and whispered: "The Marquis told me."

Li Xin's voice was hoarse.

"Let him take all the family members of the Marquis' Mansion back to the capital."

A few days ago, Li Xin brought the family, including the eldest princess, out of the capital and lived outside for nearly a year. However, at that time, he was afraid that the emperor would threaten it. If the son is no longer here today, there will naturally be no hidden danger.

To put it in a bit arrogant, Li Xin is now holding the right camp of the Imperial Guard. If the prince ascended the throne, he would also need to rely on him to support him. Under this circumstance, no one in the capital can grasp his pain points like Emperor Taikang.

Chen Shiliu nodded slightly.

"I... I understand."

After hearing this, Li Xin could no longer bear the heavy weight of his eyelids and slowly closed his eyes.

"Don't forget, the mansion needs to hang white banners."

After saying this, Li Xin closed his eyes and fell asleep.

……………………

By the time he woke up in a daze from his sleep, it was already the next afternoon.

It's still the twelfth lunar month now. It snowed all day yesterday. Although the sun was coming today, there was still snow everywhere in the capital, and it looked snowy.

But these snow-whites are not only the color of snow, but also the white banners hanging all over the capital. Among them, there are the most white banners in Yonglefang, and the ground is full of white.

Li Xin rubbed his temples that were a little swollen and painful, put on his clothes, and walked out.

Because the former was the Prince Qi Mansion, the Jing'an Hou Mansion was very good in Yonglefang, and it was almost north of Yonglefang, which was close to the palace.

At this time, standing in the yard of the Jing'an Marquis Mansion, you can see that the "neighbors" outside the wall have already hung white banners one by one.

Li Xin rubbed his head again, and after he woke up, he laughed at himself: "It turns out that it's not a dream..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Shiliu walked in from outside and bowed respectfully in front of Li Xin: "The Marquis is awake."

Li Xin nodded and asked, "Has the eldest princess returned home?"

"No."

Chen Shiliu lowered his head and said, "Your Highness should be still busy in the palace at this time and has never returned to the house."

Li Xin nodded silently.

At this time, as the elder sister of the emperor, the eldest princess naturally had to work in the palace.

At the same time, this is also the best time to show loyalty. Whether it is a royal relative or a senior official in the court, as long as he is qualified to enter the palace, he will most likely kneel in the palace.

Only Li Xin will run out of the palace at this time.

After Li Xin had a full sleep, his spirits recovered a lot. After stretching, he slowly said, "I'm changing my clothes and going to the palace."

At this time, it is the critical moment for the emperor to pass the imperial hand. No matter what, Li Xin has to participate.

Chen Shiliu lowered his head slightly: "Marty, Mr. Xie Dai from the Xie family outside, has been waiting for you for a long time."

Li Xin was slightly stunned and then sighed.
