Chapter 548
As the new year approaches, it snows in Taiyuan. It not only falls on the ground, but also enters the hearts of many people. It's cool.

Dali Temple and the Ministry of Criminal Justice have joined hands to arrest people, and they are crazy. Not only Taiyuan is arresting, but also the officials involved in the case in other counties and counties. In addition, those otaku who are fierce in combat at Yushitai almost formed a bottom-up trend that swept across the country. The Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Officials, and the Ministry of Households collectively cracked down on the trend.

While buying new year's goods, the common people laughed and talked about these things with their friends.

Yu Qing, as the Minister of Internal History, has little to do with these matters. His work essentially belongs to King Zhao's confidant who joins the army, is in charge of Ziweitang documents, and is only responsible to King Zhao.These matters are the affairs of Liubu and Yushitai, and he did not get involved.

Therefore, as the year approached, he also took time off.

At the gate of Taiyuan City, Yu Qing was dressed in sable fur, with his head tucked into a large 'hair hat'. The style of the hat was quite different from the 'veil hat'. It was an original hat created by the king when he was in Liaodong. 'Jam skin hat'.

In fact, it is a dog-skin hat. Liaodong is really cold. In order to protect himself, Jiang Chengxiao had to make some small inventions to protect himself.

"Daddy, when will grandpa arrive? I really want to go home and eat candied fruit and pistachio." A child wrapped in winter clothes into rice dumplings held Yu Qingze's hand, his chubby little face almost squeezed into a ball.

He is the eldest son of Yu Qingze, whose nickname is Brother Hun.

"Eat, eat, eat, you know how to eat all day long, you will become a fat pig sooner or later!" Yu Qing pinched his son's mouth angrily, and said with a little resentment: "Tell me, are the snacks rewarded by the palace right?" You stole it."

Brother Hui blinked his narrowed eyes, and shook his head, "It's not me, it's Auntie and Auntie."

"Nonsense, Brother Hun, what did my mother teach you!" A female voice yelled from the carriage beside her.

"How dare you lie to me!" Yu Qing slapped his son on the head, biting his mouth and crying, but he dared not cry out.

At this moment, a carriage came not far away.Yu Qing stretched his neck, watched carefully, and when he got close, his face brightened, he waved his hand over there, and said loudly, "Uncle Qi, here!"

The carriage slowly stopped in front of Yu Qingze, and an old man got out of the carriage with the help of Uncle Qi.

"An unfilial son pays his respects to his father!"

Yu Qing pulled his son, and his wife Xie, who got out of the carriage, knelt down in the snow.

The person who came was Yu Shinan who came from Jiangnan. Ever since Yu Qingze followed Jiang Chengxiao, he hadn't seen his father for a long time.

"It's freezing cold, get up quickly." Yu Shinan helped his son up.

Ever since the late emperor acted against him, he persuaded him to no avail, and stayed away from the court, Yu Shinan lived in seclusion in his ancestral house in the south of the Yangtze River, and never cared about world affairs.Although he is old, his body is still strong.

"Not bad, not bad." Yu Shinan patted his son's shoulder and said 'not bad' twice.

The whole family got into the carriage, Yu Shinan and Yu Qing took the same carriage, his wife Xie Shi and their son Brother Hui took the same carriage.

The carriage moved slowly towards the city.

"Father, you are finally willing to come." Yu Qing said with a smile.

Yu Shinan covered his cold palms, and said with emotion: "Xiao Liang and Nan Chen conquered each other, the southern country has no place to live, the monarch of Chen country ignores the government all day long, indulges in female sex, inside and outside the court, the common people and the people of Li suffer unspeakably. Hearing about the peaceful and peaceful place during the Qingming Festival in the Northern Jin Dynasty, I want to come and see it as a father."

"What my father said is very true. The king is wise and tolerant, the people live and work in peace and contentment, and the officials are clear. This is exactly where father should come." After a pause, Yu Qing added: "The king mentioned his father many times in private. Knowing that my father is here, I must be very happy."

Hearing this, Yu Shinan lowered his eyes and said in a low voice: "Qing Ze, Qing Que is now your lord. Remember, you must never mention the past in front of Qing Que in the future. Monarchs and ministers are different. You can miss the old love, but you can't be a minister, you must remember that you must not serve the monarch in the past, this is a big taboo!"

"Father said, save the child."

"Okay, tell me about the affairs of the court."

"Yes."

At the moment, Yu Qing told Yu Shinan everything that happened in the court, and he couldn't finish talking about these things along the way, until they returned home and the two of them sat down in the study, before they could finish part of the talk.

Burning charcoal was burning in the study room, after Yu Shinan finished listening, he slowly exhaled a puff of turbid air, and loosened his palms that were gradually recovering from heat.

"The posture of King Zhao is exactly like that of Emperor Wu."

Yu Shinan paused, and then said: "What has happened in the court so far is nothing more than the word 'balance'. King Zhao has done a good job in this. This time, all the ministries were kicked out, and King Zhao ruled by himself. In a few years, the Northern Jin Dynasty will bring peace and prosperity to the people, and the national strength will increase sharply. In time, the troops of Xu Guo, Chen Guo, and Liang Guo will be difficult to stop if they send troops to the south."

"Father said so." He responded, and then Yu Qing said with a little complaint: "I wanted my father to come over earlier, but my father refused."

Yu Shinan shook his head, "You are still too young. The disputes in the world are changing rapidly. Although my Jiangnan Yu clan is not a big family, it is also the prestige of a county and one of the noble families in the southern country. If I come to Taiyuan, once there is a change, Where should the Yu family in the south of the Yangtze River be treated?"

Hearing this, Yu Qing was slightly silent, "Father didn't come before, so he was just watching."

"Qing Ze, this is our aristocratic family. You can fail, but the Yu family in Jiangnan cannot fail at will. There are many children in the family serving Liang Guo and Chen Guo, and I have not stopped them. This is our way of life. A If the stove is not working, we can still find another stove, but it will take longer." Yu Shinan taught.

"Father came here, but do you think the stove that the child burns is feasible?"

Yu Shinan chuckled, and said: "Actually, as a father, I never thought you would fail. Since Hebei was captured and the Northern Jin Dynasty won the first Central Plains War, I knew that King Zhao was already firmly in the north of the river. As long as you don't make big mistakes , it is not a problem for one side to re-establish the country."

"This year, I heard that Guanzhong was pacified. As a father, I knew that the Northern Jin Dynasty was coming. Based on this, there is no reason to wait and see."

Yu Qing said: "Father came here to support the king?"

"Hehe." Yu Shinan smiled and said, "King Zhao already has the support of nobles from Shandong and Guanzhong. Do you think King Zhao needs us from the nobles from Jiangnan?"

"Father, you may not know that the nobles in Guanzhong have been seriously injured this time, only [-]% of them are left, and they have long since lost their former glory. The heads of the Dugu family and the Dou family, the king only gave them the title of Sanguan, not In such a situation, I'm afraid it will be difficult to help Wang Shang Daye." Yu Qing analyzed.

"Stupid!" Yu Shinan scolded, "How can you be so superficial? Although Guanzhong was seriously injured by Li Yuan and Wei Hongzhi's rebellion, they still have a prestige in Guanzhong that is difficult for others to match. We want the Guanzhong patriarchs to move to Taiyuan. One is to prevent them from causing chaos, and the other is to use the Guanzhong nobles to deal with the Shandong gentry."

"The weaker it is, the easier it is to control. On the contrary, now that the Shandong gentry is in the limelight, they should be the most vigilant."

"What can we do?" Yu Qing asked puzzled.

"Us?" Yu Shinan chuckled, "We can support King Zhao!"

Seeing that Yu Qing was still puzzled, Yu Shinan explained, "You will understand later."

"Father, I don't understand, can't the Shandong gentry see what the king is planning?"

"Of course they can see it, but you have to know that what the outsiders see, the insiders can't. The outsiders think they can let go, but the insiders won't give up. The struggle for power in the imperial court has always been bloodier than the battlefield of swords and swords."

After a pause, Yu Shinan sighed: "Perhaps Pei Ju and others can understand, but they can't prevent the nobles from Guanzhong from entering the court. Because this is the request of King Zhao. If the Northern Jin Dynasty wants to unify the world, the nobles from Guanzhong must be accepted. If they disobey According to King Zhao's intentions, trying to treat King Zhao as the son-in-law emperors of the Eastern Wei Dynasty, then what happened to the Weihe River may happen in the Fenhe River."

"We all understand that King Zhao is a very assertive person. His troops, hundreds of thousands of troops, and dozens of good generals are all loyal to King Zhao. The military and political power in the court and the prestige of the people are all in King Zhao. Who dares to refute what he decides?"

"So, the king will definitely accept the gentry from the south of the Yangtze River." Yu Qing concluded.

Yu Shinan nodded and said, "That's right, because Wang Shangzhi is in the world."

So far, he is also in a trance.Xiao Lang, who was in poor health back then, has already mastered the way of balancing power and strategy in a blink of an eye, and is about to become a generation of monarchs.

The world changes, nothing more than this.

"When is father going to see the king?"

"There's no rush, I have my own plans for my father."

Yu Shinan stroked his beard and smiled.
