Unparalleled Concubine

   Chapter 831 When I wake up, the sky has changed

  The Taikang Dynasty, which lasted for ten years, finally came to an end.

Looking at the entire Taikang Dynasty, although it only had about half the lifespan of the Chengde Dynasty, in the ten years of the Taikang Dynasty, the entire Jin Dynasty was stable, and there were no major issues at the border. Less local taxation, in general, the Dajin under the leadership of the emperor Taikang, the conservative monarch, is still doing well.

However, compared with the Chengde Dynasty, the official governance of the Taikang Dynasty was much looser. After all, the emperor's temper was here, and he did not want to turn his face with some vested interests. Therefore, there was more corruption in the local area, and the official governance was inferior to the previous dynasties. many.

   This also led to many policies of the Taikang Dynasty, which did not fall on the heads of the people.

   But anyway, these things are over.

  The Taikang Dynasty has come to an end. The actions of the Emperor Taikang in the past ten years are also recorded bit by bit in the "Daily Notes", which will be left for future generations to comment on.

   But no matter how you say it, in ten years, the emperor did not bad.

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

   However, the eldest princess naturally had no way to leave at this time, and Li Xin returned to Jing'an Hou's mansion alone.

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

After Chen Shiliu parked the carriage in the backyard, he glanced at Li Xin and said in a low voice, "Master Hou, you haven't eaten yet. I asked them to prepare some dishes for you?"

   After being called into the palace in the morning, Li Xin really didn't eat much that day, he nodded and said, "Cook some dishes and get a pot of wine."

  Chen Shiliu nodded and went down to prepare to go.

It didn't take long for a few small dishes to be served on the low table in Li Xin's study. It is worth mentioning that, thanks to the personal instructions of the Marquis of Jing'an, the cooking skills of the chefs of the Marquis of Jing'an are quite good. But all the cooks who went out of the Jinganhou mansion are very popular in Yonglefang, and the dignitaries are rushing to ask for them.

  Chen Shiliu put some dishes in front of Li Xin, set out the wine, and then left.

   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."

On the surface, Chen Shiliu is a servant of the Jing'an Houfu, but in fact he is Li Xin's subordinate and Li Xin's colleague in Yulinweili. Already can be regarded as friends.

  If either Zhao Jia or Mu Ying were in the capital, Li Xin would not ask Chen Shiliu to drink together, but now these people are all in the southwest.

  Chen Shiliu hesitated for a while, and finally bowed his head deeply: "Then go get another set of tableware and chopsticks."

   After a while, the one-armed Chen Shiliu sat across from Li Xin somewhat unaccustomed. Because his one hand was not very convenient, Li Xin poured him a glass of wine himself.

  The Marquis of Jing An was feeling a little heavy and complicated at this moment. He picked up the wine glass and had a cup with Chen Shiliu.

   "full drink."

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

  Chen Shiliu followed him and drank the spirits in one gulp.

  The Marquis of Jing An put down the wine glass and let out a breath of alcohol.

   "Sixteen, in my heart..."

   He only said six words, so he didn't go on. He filled Chen Shiliu and himself with wine, and said in a muffled voice, "Done."

  Chen Shiliu didn't speak, and simply accompanied Li Xin for another drink.

   The two of you just drank one cup and one cup for me, and drank for more than an hour before dawn.

  Jing'an Houye's face was flushed, and his whole body was swaying, and he was about to lose consciousness.

  Chen Shiliu doesn't drink alcohol on weekdays, and his face is flushed now, but he can barely hold on, and his body does not shake.

   Finally, Li Xin couldn't hold on anymore.

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

   He got up from the low table, stood up staggeringly, and was about to walk towards his bed in the study. Chen Shiliu was in better condition than him, and 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... tell Shen Gang."

  Chen Shiliu was also a little drunk at first, but after hearing the words, he immediately sobered up a little and said in a low voice, "Master Hou ordered."

  Li Xin's voice was hoarse.

   "Let him bring all the family members of the Hou residence... back to the capital."

Some time ago, Li Xin took the whole family, including the eldest princess, out of the capital, and lived outside for nearly a year, but at that time, he was afraid that the emperor would use this to threaten him. hidden danger.

To put it a bit arrogant, Li Xin is now holding the right camp of the forbidden army in his hand. If the prince ascends the throne, he will also need to rely on him to support him. Under this circumstance, no one in the capital can handle his own pain points like the emperor Taikang. .

  Chen Shiliu nodded slightly.

   "Subordinate...I know."

   After hearing this, Li Xin couldn't bear the heavy eyelids any longer, and slowly closed his eyes.

   "Don't forget, the mansion will... hang white flags."

   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 afternoon of the next day.

   It was still the twelfth lunar month. It snowed all day yesterday. Although the sun was out today, there was still snow everywhere in the capital, and it looked completely white.

   But these snow whites are not only the color of snow, but also the white flags hanging all over the capital. Among them, there are the most white flags in Yonglefang, and they are all white.

   Li Xin rubbed his aching temples, put on his clothes, and walked out.

  Jing'an Hou's mansion was formerly known as Prince Qi's mansion, and the location in Yonglefang is excellent, almost north of Yonglefang, which is closer to the imperial palace.

   At this time, standing in the courtyard of the Marquis of Jing'an, you can see the "neighbors" outside the wall, already hanging white flags.

   Li Xin rubbed his head again, and after making himself awake a little bit, he laughed at himself: "It wasn't a dream..."

   As soon as he finished saying this, Chen Shiliu walked in from outside and bowed his head respectfully in front of Li Xin: "Master Hou is awake."

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

"No."

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

  Li Xin nodded silently.

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

   At the same time, this is also the best time to show loyalty. Whether it is a royal family member or an important court official, as long as they are qualified to enter the palace, most of them kneel in the palace.

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

   After a full sleep, Li Xin recovered a lot. After stretching, he said slowly, "I'm going to change into the palace, too."

   At this time, it is a critical time for the emperor to deliver, no matter what, Li Xin will also be involved.

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

   Li Xin was slightly startled, then sighed.

   "Tell him, I'll go see him right away."
