Quick Wear: Everyone knows I am a good person

Chapter 478 The Princess Who Goes Down in History 10

I hope Chen Yan will return to this poisoner who was once famous in the plot and will not let her down.

Hey ~

Ultimately, it was still the Fourth Prince and Li Yang's fault, two reckless men without political acumen, otherwise she wouldn't have gone to such lengths to equip them with an external brain.

Otherwise, two reckless men wouldn't be able to cause much trouble.

On the way back, Shu Jiao led the envoys to Dayu.

Daxu...

How to say it, a weak country has no say.

Today, in the eyes of Yuan Zhen, Zhu Gu, and even the Western Barbarians, the Xin Kingdom is a soft persimmon, a seriously injured tiger, and good meat that can be bitten at any time.

But in Daxu's eyes, Xin State is still the Celestial Empire that cannot be offended and must be called "Dad".

So when facing Shu Jiao and her group of envoys, they could only entertain them with good tea and wine.

Opening up business dealings?

open!

Open immediately.

Keep an eye on the situation in Xiangcheng and provide rescue at any time?

stare.

I promise to keep an eye on me twelve hours a day, and give me as much money and food as possible!

Shu Jiao was very satisfied with this attitude and thought:

When we annex Dayu later, we might as well be gentler and give some preferential treatment to the royal family of Dayu.

It’s rare to find someone as discerning as Daxu nowadays!

When Shu Jiao was heading towards Xin State, the Western Barbarians' army had already crossed Xiangcheng unscathed.

The soldiers of the Xin State stationed in Xiangcheng treated them to a good meal and drink, and even sent a guide to lead the way in case they lost their way.

"What do you think?"

Shu Jiao asked Jiang Song, the general of Xin State stationed in Xiangcheng.

Jiang Song lowered his eyes, "The chance of winning is not high. Princess, you didn't see the group of soldiers from the Western Barbarians..."

As if they were sure of winning, arrogance was written all over their faces, and they had no military discipline at all.

He shook his head slightly, paused, and then said, "Commander He Xing is my old rival. He is suitable for playing against the wind. If everything goes smoothly, he will probably lose in the first battle."

"If Yuan Zhen suddenly withdraws his troops..."

"Defeat is inevitable."

"it is good!"

Shu Jiao clapped her hands and smiled, "Then when he returns defeated, you will stop them in Xiangcheng and quickly send a letter to the capital."

"Princess Princess, this..."

"This is what the prince meant."

Hearing this, Jiang Song hesitated for a moment, then lowered his eyes and replied, "Yes."

Although he was far away in Xiangcheng, he was also aware of what was happening in the capital. The prince had been killing like crazy in the capital for the past few months, and he didn't dare to gamble with his own life.

After a short stay of two days, Shu Jiao led the team back to Beijing.

This trip lasted nearly five months.

When I left, it was autumn, and yellow leaves were hanging on the branches; when I came back, it was spring, and the grass was lush, the warblers were flying, and the flowers were in full bloom. It was a good time.

"Your Majesty, I have done my duty."

Shu Jiao returned to Beijing to report on his work and recounted what he had done in Ximan as briefly as possible.

He sowed discord and made the Western Barbarians change their generals before the battle, increasing the possibility of defeat, and was also prepared to make a killing.

He stirred up trouble, provoked the ambitions of the four princes, arranged poisonous soldiers, laid mines inside, and prepared to plunge the Western Barbarians into internal strife.

Show weakness and let the Western Barbarians focus all their attention on Zhugu, buying time for Xin State to develop.

Bribing Sun Dong, that guy might be able to make great contributions to Xin State in the end...

Overall, the results are impressive.

Emperor Kangping: ...

Pei Jin & Pei Wan: !!!

Didn't we agree that you would go to the Western Barbarians to show weakness and tell them that they could attack Zhugu from Xiangcheng, and that we could lend them food and fodder when necessary?

Why did you do so many things?!

The moment Pei Jin and Pei Wan finished listening, there was only one thought in their minds -

Lost!

Neither his brother nor his sister had ever slept with Shu Jiao.

Shu Jiao: There's nothing she can do. She can't resist the fact that the guy there is so easy to fool. He insists on giving it to her, so she can only do it for the chance.

"Okay! Hahaha...Okay!"

Emperor Kang Ping was stunned for three seconds, then laughed happily, "Jiaojiao, you've worked really hard this time. Just ask for what you want, and your uncle will give it to you as long as it's possible!"

"I want to enter the Honglu Temple."

"no problem."

Anyway, there is already a Princess Ning'an standing in the court, and if there is another Princess Duanyang standing next to her, the group of court officials who have been scared into quails should be able to understand it.

Emperor Kangping thought, "How about the Junior Secretary of the Honglu Temple?"

"Me? Where is the Shaoqing of the Honglu Temple?"

Shu Jiao asked with some confusion.

"He was captured and killed by the prince."

The Honglu Temple is short of people.

It just so happens that Shu Jiao is going there, so it would be nice if she could take over the position.

Emperor Kangping is now in a very open-minded mood.

It won’t work if it’s not turned on.

His children are too capable, and as a father he can't handle them, so he shouldn't hold them back.

No matter what, he is the emperor.

If my sons and daughters want to work, let them do it.

His deceased father helped him ascend to the throne safely, and his children helped him rule the country safely in later years. It was good, as he was born to live a leisurely and enjoyable life.

As for fighting for power with his children... forget it, he can't handle those tough matters.

"killed?"

Shu Jiao looked at Pei Jin in surprise.

Pei Jin coughed lightly, raised his chin slightly, and said with a little pride, "Cousin, you haven't been back to Beijing for a long time, and there are many new faces in Beijing."

This is all thanks to me... and my sister.

We've got real work done!

Although I'm slightly inferior to you, I'm doing a good job.

Pei Jin and Pei Wan did not kill officials indiscriminately.

The royal family and the aristocratic families form the same interest group, and there are very few emperors who can have the final say and act arbitrarily.

Most emperors were able to maintain the noble status of the royal family by compromising with aristocratic families, gentry and civil servants and interweaving their powers.

If you were an emperor, when you came to power you would strike a blow to the aristocratic families, then strike a blow to the meritorious military generals, civil officials and gentry. You would see whether they would recognize you as the emperor or not, and whether they would work for you or not. Then you would be finished.

Pei Jin and Pei Wan adopted the approach of pulling one against one.

Kill some and support some.

It just so happened that the imperial examination had just been held, and the new batch of successful candidates directly filled the vacant positions.

Not long ago, bandits were rampant in many places in the southwest, and students in Jiangnan and other places were causing trouble. Were these not counterattacks by the gentry and civil service groups whose interests were affected against the sudden attack by the royal family?

And it’s not resolved yet.

Pei Jin didn't even dare to think about how Shu Jiao would laugh at him if she knew about this.

Is it so powerful?

Shu Jiao looked at Pei Jin suspiciously, then looked at Pei Wan with a smile on her face, "My cousin looks very different now."

Maybe he was doing some work and killed a few people.

This temperament is no longer as gentle and charming as when she left the capital. Her eyebrows and eyes are much colder and harder, and she looks a bit like the powerful empress dowager in the original plot.

"There are no cowards among the daughters of the Pei family."

With Princess Dingguo in front of her and her cousin Shu Jiao behind her, how could it be justified if she was too weak?

Pei Wan said, her eyes lingering on Emperor Kang Ping for a second——

Forget it, Dad.

Let’s not talk about him.

"I brought some Western Barbarian specialties for my uncle, aunt, and cousins. I have already sent them to my aunt's palace."

Shu Jiao said, bowing and clasping her hands. "Then I will go back to see my mother first. Uncle, don't forget to write me an imperial edict."

What imperial edict?

Of course, it was the imperial edict for him to work in the Honglu Temple.

The previous Minister of the Honglu Temple was already dead. The newly promoted Lord Wang Mian... was very good at keeping himself safe.

If Shu Jiao really entered the Honglu Temple, it would not be a problem for her to become the boss there.
