He changed from a puppet in Wang Dazai's hands to a puppet in Huan Taiwei's hands.
Oh, no, Huan Feng has now proclaimed himself Dazai.
After Huan Feng took control of the government, the first thing he did was to suppress the civil service forces of the Qiao family - he already had all the military military forces under his control, so he didn't need to worry about it at all. The next thing he had to take care of was the civil service forces.
The only way to suppress these families with overseas surnames is to provide greater support to the children of poor families and the children of the Wu family.
But after he replaced all the military attachés, the Qiao family became more powerful and tried every means to prevent him from touching the civil servants. The Xie family of Chen County and the Wang family of Langya united against themselves and the Huan family of Qiao State, so
Huan Feng had a headache.
In addition, the Northern Expedition suffered successive defeats, and the Wei Dynasty often led its troops to attack the northern frontier of the Jin Dynasty. Huan Feng became angry and fell ill due to internal and external troubles.
A confidant invited an imperial physician to treat Huan Feng. The imperial physician tried to persuade Huan Feng with earnest words: "Da Zai is so worried that he is ill. He is so anxious that he may be at the root of his illness."
Huan Feng sat on the bed and said nothing.
After the imperial doctor prescribed the medicine and left, he took the medicine honestly for a few days, and then went to Yangzhou again.
When Huan Feng arrived in Shouchun, Yangzhou, it was already the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month.
Heavy snow has fallen here, covering the entire Jiangnan area, and the snow-covered area is extremely beautiful.
In front of the governor's mansion, two doormen were sweeping the snow in front of the door. When they noticed someone coming, they looked up.
The young man is dressed in black clothes and has a jade crown. His pale eyebrows are very beautiful, and he looks a bit familiar.
The doormen thought for a moment and suddenly remembered that this person seemed to be Sanlang of the Huan family.
He is now the Grand Prime Minister of the Jin Dynasty.
The two doormen put down their brooms and saluted Huan Feng respectfully: "The common people have seen Dazai."
"You don't have to be polite, can the governor be in the mansion?" Huan Feng coughed for a while, gathered his cloak, and asked.
"Go back to Dazai. My master is in the palace. The grassroots will go and inform Dazai. Please wait for a moment." A doorman thought for a while, continued to bow, and then left.
Not long after, Xie Yuan came out and was stunned when he saw the pale-faced Huan Feng, and then bowed: "Dazai."
"We are all friends, Tunan doesn't need to salute me." Huan Feng laughed.
Xie Yuan also laughed and welcomed Huan Feng inside.
"Long time no see, how come Sanlang has lost so much money?" In the small room at the end of the corridor, Xie Yuan moved two hot stoves and burned silver charcoal to warm the wind.
Huan Feng held the tea cup and said with a wry smile: "I am troubled by court affairs. I worry all the time that the soldiers in Northern Xinjiang will not be able to defeat the Wei Dynasty. With so many internal and external troubles, I can't even take a breath."
"Sanlang now has many capable people under his command and has confidants to help handle the government affairs, so there is no need to worry so much." Xie Yuan frowned.
If you continue to worry like this, Huan Feng will have big problems sooner or later.
"Those people are far less aware of my thoughts than Tunan. Some of them are smart. I want to serve as civil servants for them, but the civil servants are occupied by the Qiao family and cannot move." Huan Feng shook his head and smiled bitterly.
Xie Yuan pursed his lips.
He had heard a little bit about the affairs of the imperial court.
Because Huan Feng replaced all the military attachés and aroused the hatred of the Qiao family, the current deadlock has arisen.
"Actually, it's not unbreakable." Xie Yuan thought for a moment and put forward his idea.
After hearing this, Huan Feng's eyes lit up, and then he sighed: "It would be great if Tunan was willing to join the court."
"You treat me like a countryman, and I will repay you as a countryman." Xie Yuan smiled slightly.
Huan Feng was stunned for a moment, then understood what Xie Yuan meant, and immediately showed a look of joy: "Do you really mean what Tunan said?"
"Um."
"Okay, just wait here for me!"
The two doormen's eyes lit up when they saw Huan Feng going out, and the melancholy on their bodies was wiped away. They couldn't help but wonder what he had talked about with their lord.
But he didn't dare to ask any more questions and continued to clear the snow.
In the fourth year of Yongkang, on the first day of the Lunar New Year, two imperial edicts came to the governor's office in Yangzhou.
An imperial edict clearly stated that Xie Yuan was allowed to be promoted. Considering that his achievements were very good, he became a Situ and entered the court immediately.
Another imperial edict promoted Cui Heng as the new governor of Yangzhou.
When the two imperial edicts were promulgated, everyone was not only shocked, but also curious about how Huan Feng persuaded those people with overseas surnames to give Xie Yuan the position of Third Duke. This chapter has been completed!
