After the throne ceremony of Emperor Yuan Zhao was completed, the new dynasty was basically settled. Next, just wait quietly for the new dynasty to become an adult and take power. The waves caused by the death of Emperor Taikang in the dark of the capital slowly calmed down.

After coming out of the Shangshu Deck, Li Xin went to the harem and took the ninth princess back from Kunde Palace. The couple left the palace from Yong'anmen Gate together and got on their own carriage.

Chen Shiliu waved his whip and the carriage slowly walked towards the Jing'an Marquis Mansion.

In the carriage, the Ninth Princess shook her husband's hand and asked, "Is there anything wrong with Shangshutai looking for you?"

She was born in the royal family and knew very well about the official system of the court. She naturally knew what kind of status the Shangshutai had in the court. What's more, if Zi was young today, the two prime ministers of Shangshutai were assisting in government affairs. Putting aside military affairs, Shangshutai is now acting as the king's affairs.

Shangshutai inexplicably looked for Li Xin, so the Ninth Princess naturally had to ask.

"Nothing big."

Li Xin said with a smile: "Some trivial matters about Your Majesty have been dealt with."

The Ninth Princess nodded and said softly: "The power of the imperial court is now mostly in the Shangshu Desk, so the Shangshu Desk is also the most eye-catching. If you are fine, don't have any contact with them. Just live our own lives."

Li Xin smiled and nodded.

"What Your Highness said is that I will do as I will do it for my husband and will not interact with those old men anymore."

The couple has been married for many years, and the title "Your Highness" has long been abandoned. Now it is mostly a joke.

The Ninth Princess snorted lightly, turned her head and ignored Li Xin.

The couple was talking when the carriage suddenly stopped.

Li Xin frowned slightly.

He has walked too many times on the road back home from Yong'anmen Square. He is already familiar with the time to go home and which sections to pass. He is very clear about his current location. He has two or three turns to reach the Jing'an Marquis Mansion.

So he asked, "What's wrong?"

Chen Shiliu, who was driving, turned around, lifted the curtain, and said in a deep voice: "Mr. Marquis, someone blocked the road."

Marquis Jing'an poked his head out of the curtain and saw a young man dressed in a beautiful purple dress, about fifteen or sixteen years old, who was blocking the carriage of Marquis Jing'an's mansion.

Behind this young man, there were about a dozen strong men, who seemed to be his guard.

Although the young man blocked the road, he had a good attitude. He bowed deeply to the carriage of the Jing'an Marquis Mansion.

"Ji Kai, the prince of the King of Qi, ask to see the Marquis of Jing'an."

After saying this, he lowered his head and said, "I've seen my aunt."

After hearing this, Li Xin's body, which had originally stuck out, immediately shrank back.

Ji Huan's son?

He frowned at first, then quickly responded to Guo Lei and said in a deep voice to Chen Shiliu: "Don't pay attention to him and bump into him."

"Don't care about life and death!"

Chen Shiliu followed Li Xin for many years and understood what Li Xin meant very well. As soon as Li Xin finished speaking, he waved the whip and the two white horses pulling the cart immediately neighed loudly, no longer caring about the person in front of him, and rushed over.

This prince of King Qi is naturally not a fool. Facing such a big car, he would probably die in the streets of the capital with his body. He was shocked and hurriedly avoided.

When he realized it, the black carriage from the Marquis of Jing'an's mansion had already left.

At the same time, the Marquis Jing'an in the carriage was full of bad luck.

At this time, even the Ninth Princess next to her saw something wrong. She frowned and said, "Son of Fourth Brother, why are you here to find us?"

When the new emperor ascended the throne, even if the vassal kings in various places could not leave the vassal state, they could still send their princes to the capital to worship. Therefore, it was not surprising that the prince of Qi appeared in the capital. What was strange was why he came to stop Li Xin's carriage.

You should know that it is a huge taboo for the ministers of the court, especially those who lead troops, to make friends with the royal family, not to mention the princes like the Qi Palace who failed to fight for the throne ten years ago and was driven out of the capital and became a vassal.

More importantly, once the two sides have contact, not only the ministers will be suspicious of the court, but the vassal kings themselves will be more suspicious and their lives will be even harder.

Even if His Highness, King Qi, had something to come to find Li Xin, he should not let his son stop Li Xin's carriage openly in Yonglefang.

"He did it on purpose."

Li Xin, who was sitting in the carriage, narrowed his eyes.

"This King of Qi is unstoppable and wants to take this opportunity to provoke conflicts between the court and our family."

Li Xin took a deep breath: "He wants the court to be more suspicious of me, and it is best to make me unable to survive in the capital, so that he has the opportunity to move on to the next step."

Speaking of this, Marquis Jing'an slowly closed his eyes.

"It's been more than ten years, and your fourth brother is still unrighteous and unstoppable."

The Ninth Princess was a little panicked, and she whispered: "What should I do?"

"It's all right. If this child comes to our house to find me secretly, it may be useful, but he is obedient to stop us in Yonglefang, and as long as anyone with a discerning eye can see the flaws at a glance."

Speaking of this, Li Xin said to Chen Shiliu: "This kid will probably come again. Shiliu tells the concierge and stops it directly, and then he says I have not seen guests recently."

Chen Shiliu nodded slightly.

"knew."

While speaking, the carriage had already stopped at the gate of the Marquis' Mansion. Li Xin and the Ninth Princess got off the car one after another, and then ordered again: "Remember, no matter who comes, except for the people in the palace, no matter who comes."

Chen Shiliu lowered his head and said, "Don't worry, you must do it for the marquis."

Only then did Li Xin step into the Jing'an Marquis Mansion with the eldest princess.

As soon as they walked in, the Marquis's Dharma door closed, which means that in the past few days, the Marquis' Mansion of Jing'an will not entertain any guests.

However, this kind of closed door lasted only one day. By the afternoon of the next day, a group of eunuchs in purple clothes broke through the defense line of the gatehouse of the Marquis' Mansion and successfully entered the Marquis' Mansion.

The leader of this group of eunuchs in purple was Xiao Huai, the godson of Xiao Zheng. He was holding a roll of imperial edict in his hand, and was here to pass the imperial edict to Li Xin.

When the imperial edict arrived, the Marquis's mansion naturally dared not fail. After a while, Li Xin took his family and prepared to kneel down to receive the imperial edict in the main hall.

But when the family members of the Marquis' Mansion just arrived at the main hall and were about to set up a case to burn incense and welcome the imperial edict, Xiao Huai waved his hand at Li Xin and smiled flatteringly: "No big gift, no big gift, just take it to see it."

As he said that, he was going to hand over the imperial edict to Li Xin.

Li Xin reached out to take the imperial edict and nodded slightly to Xiao Huai: "I am a laborious father-in-law."

Xiao Huai had a smile on his face.

"It's not hard, no hard work. It's a blessing for me to be able to send the marquis a high-profile imperial edict to the marquis."

Li Xin frowned deeply when he heard the word "high success".

He had seen many imperial edicts and was familiar with the imperial edicts. Soon the imperial edict was slowly unfolded, and the entire Jing'an Marquis Mansion immediately knelt down.

Li Xin glanced briefly and saw the most critical line of words.

"Promoted the Grand Guardian Li Xin, the Grand Tutor of the current dynasty, and was appointed as the General of the Zhu Kingdom."

Except for this line of words, no other words on the imperial edict were useful. Li Xin simply scanned it and saw the location of the imperial edict.

Here, the jade seal was originally intended to be stamped.

But at this time, in addition to the jade seal, there were four private seals in the signature, and the signatures of four auxiliary ministers were also signed.

In other words, all the four assistants agreed.

Marquis Jing'an glanced at the imperial edict several times, then smiled.

"If you are lucky, Eunuch Xiao will take a trip, the content of this imperial edict..."
Chapter completed!
