No matter which era it is, there are few things that can be solved by marriage alone. If so, it means that there is not a big gap between the two parties, or that is, they don’t want to continue to fight. Watermark Advertising Test Watermark Advertising Test

Things in the northern border are different. The imperial court of the Great Jin has always wanted to completely destroy the remnants of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, and even if it is not good, they will be destroyed. From Emperor Wu to Emperor Taikang, the three generations of the Ji family have had this idea.

From Li Xin's perspective, although he had an alliance with the Yuwen Ministry, it did not mean that he would not attack Northern Xinjiang.

Before Emperor Taikang died, he entrusted Li Xin with the problem in northern Xinjiang. Li Xin agreed at that time, so he would do his best to solve the problem in northern Xinjiang.

Besides, this is a great contribution, which can enable the Jing'an Marquis Mansion and the Ye family to reach a new height in the Jin court with this contribution. More importantly, although Li Xin is now in the new dynasty, he is not an auxiliary minister and does not have much "real power". A right camp of the imperial guards is in his hand, but he can only protect himself, or maintain the stability of the capital. The real power of the government is in the hands of those four auxiliary ministers.

To put it bluntly, as long as the four assistant ministers all disliked him and joined forces, they could dismiss all positions on him, and even the position of Taishang on him.

If there is any conflict with the assistant ministers, the northern border can be used to make a big fuss.

After talking to Emperor Yuan Zhao in Weiyang Palace, Marquis Jing'an left and walked in the imperial city.

It was afternoon, and the sun was spreading on the blue bricks in the palace. Although white banners were still hanging everywhere in the palace, many palace people were busy preparing for the throne ceremony on February 27th.

Li Xin walked in this familiar and unfamiliar imperial city with his hands behind his back, feeling mixed feelings.

The first time he entered the imperial city was when he was the deputy team in Yulin Guard, he was ordered to take the turn to Yong'anmen. At that time, he had a fight with the inner guards and gathered to fight once.

It was also that time that he met Emperor Chengde in this palace.

Then there is Emperor Taikang.

In a blink of an eye, the owner of this palace city had become Emperor Yuan Zhao.

He is only twenty-eight years old this year, and he is already a serious veteran of the Three Dynasties.

Just as he was thinking about these things, he had already walked to Yong'anmen Gate. He looked up at the guards who were on the rotation of Yong'anmen Gate.

All are inner guards in red.

Because of the precedent set during the Taikang period, the Yulin Guard has now been deemed not to participate in the rotation of the Forbidden Palace.

Li Xin didn't say much, and silently walked past Yong'an Gate, got on his own carriage, and returned to the Jing'an Marquis Mansion.

At this time, the sun had not set yet, and Li Xin sat in the study of the Hou Mansion and asked someone to invite Zhang Daoyuan, a contemporary Tianshi Mansion of Longhu Mountain, into his study.

When Zhang Tianshi saw Li Xin, he felt uneasy.

There is no way. At this time, it is not just the lives of the fifty-two people in the direct descendants of the Tianshi Mansion. The Taoist tradition of the Tianshi Mansion of Longhu Mountain and the main veins of the Zhang family in Longhu Mountain combined, the lives of thousands of people in total are in the hands of the young marquis in front of him.

After the old master walked into the study, he bowed and bowed: "The old master has seen the marquis."

Li Xin was writing quickly. Upon hearing this, he put down the red pen in his hand and looked up at the old master.

His tone was calm.

"In the past few days, all the marquis who should be investigated have found out that the Dragon Tiger Mountain Tianshi Mansion has been introducing the dream pill to the late emperor since the beginning of the seventh year of Taikang, right?"

Master Zhang Tian trembled, he quickly lowered his head and said tremblingly: "Mr. Marquis, this time the dream pill is my elixir for practicing Taoism in Longhu Mountain. It is used to help his disciples calmly enter their dreams. It will never be poisonous. My fifth brother practices medicine all his life, and it is definitely not a must for Your Majesty..."

"Then why did he commit suicide for fear of sin?"

Li Xin looked at Zhang Daoyuan coldly.

"This is a serious crime of raiding a family and extermination!"

The old master lowered his head and smiled bitterly: "Mr. Li, Huimeng Dan is absolutely not poisonous. There is no problem with how many pills you eat for you. The late emperor has been unable to sleep at night since the seventh year of Taikang. I don't know how many people have used medicine for the late emperor in the past three years. According to Mar. Li, these people should be guilty, not my Longhu Mountain family..."

"There are people in the group who take medicine and they have all been backed up in the Imperial Hospital. But you don't have the Dream Pill in Longhu Mountain."

Li Xin groaned muffled.

"This one alone is enough to kill the entire family of your Tianshi Mansion!"

The old master looked as if dead.

Indeed, this kind of thing is hard to explain. As long as someone wants their family to die, this one is enough to make his family be executed. The only thing is that Tianshi Mansion went to Beijing and divined the emperor that he was the emperor.

He had no choice but to bow his head deeply to Li Xin and said sarcastically: "Marty Li, you have also obtained the inheritance of my Longhu Mountain..."

"I can bear this sin, but the Taoist ruling of Longhu Mountain cannot be broken. Please... I'll give your hand..."

Li Xin sat in his position with a expressionless face.

"As a disciple of the Taoist sect, I can only practice alchemy in the mountains. The Heavenly Master Mansion should not be involved in the affairs of the court."

"The old Taoist has regretted it."

The old master looked pale: "It is not because the Taoist sect has declined in recent years, and the old Taoist will not come to Beijing to make excuses for the emperor. Longhu Mountain is one of the leaders of the Taoist sect, and he wants to win a lot of luck for the Taoist sect..."

Marquis Jing'an groaned.

"I have already told the emperor about your entry into the alchemy. The emperor was furious and made a decision in person."

After all, the old master was a foreigner. Although he was at the critical moment of life and death, he was not so afraid. He looked for a chair in the study, sat down slowly, and then closed his eyes.

"The Marquis said..."

Li Xin glanced at the old man.

"The Heavenly Master Mansion of Longhu Mountain has been deprived of the name of Tianshi. In the future, it is prohibited to walk around in the name of Tianshi. If there is no property in Longhu Mountain in Beijing, the Zhang family of Longhu Mountain will not be allowed to enter the capital without an imperial edict."

After saying that, Li Xin glanced at the old man and his face was calm.

"Are you convinced by the Tianshi Mansion?"

Zhang Daoyuan sat on the chair, his eyes widened.

He is over 80 years old this year. As the descendant of the Tianshi Mansion, he has all his wealth, fame and fortune, and his children and family. In addition, he has practiced for a lifetime, so he has long been open to life and death. The reason why he is so nervous is that he is worried about the lives of his family and the Taoist traditions he passed down from his ancestors.

Now, things are turning around, and the court's punishment is raised high and gently falls. Even if he is the old man, he feels ups and downs in his heart.

The old man reacted for a long time before he stood up from the chair and bowed deeply to the direction of the imperial city.

"The emperor is benevolent."

Emperor Yuan Zhao's handling of this matter was indeed very kind. After all, this matter was related to his own father. If he was dealt with by another extreme young man, he would probably go to Tailing to bury the late emperor with the burial of the late emperor.

Marquis Jing'an put his hands into his sleeves and looked at the old master.

"Old Taoist Master, your family will be able to leave Beijing tomorrow morning. The imperial court detained the imperial edict of the title of the Heavenly Master and would be delivered to Longhu Mountain in a while. In the future, the Zhang family will be born in Longhu Mountain to practice Taoism. Don't come out to get involved in political affairs."

He narrowed his eyes.

"The things in the court are too dangerous. We officials are all working with our heads, and monks cannot afford to get involved."

Zhang Daoyuan smiled bitterly and bowed to Li Xin repeatedly.
