Xijing.

The ancient capital stands tall and never falls for thousands of years.

The towering city walls write about the long-standing civilization on this land.

Wars were burning wildly, conquering constant conquests, the palace collapsed and built again, the emperor ascended the throne again after death, but this ancient capital still stood between heaven and earth.

This is the most prosperous place in the entire Daxi Kingdom, and it is also the heart of the Daxi Kingdom. The world's orders have been issued since then.

The imperial city stands majestic in Xijing. The strict palace walls separate the world inside the wall from the surrounding fireworks, like an insurmountable forbidden area.

In the palace, in every palace.

The royal incense rose, bringing out a graceful and luxurious feeling. In the empty palace, there was only a young man in bright yellow clothes, with a graceful face, holding a cup of rhino horns in his hand, drinking indifferently.

Soon, a young man in white slowly entered and saluted respectfully. The young man in bright yellow and brocade waved his hand. The young man in white sat aside, and a servant had served good tea.

"This time I'm here, I want you to go to Yangzhou."

The young man in bright yellow brocade spoke lightly.

The young man in white froze slightly, he raised his eyes and looked at the young man in bright yellow and brocade, and said, "What happened there?"

The young man in the golden clothes in Ming Huang nodded and said calmly: "Guo Lianyue failed, and he almost killed himself."

Upon hearing this, the young man in white changed his face slightly and murmured: "A long-time general on the battlefield, Zhao Nantang is so skilled in court fighting?"

"Not Zhao Nantang."

The young man in bright yellow Jinyi shook his head slightly and then said, "It's not just Guo Lianyue, but Wen Baishan personally went to the southeast this time and suffered a big loss. I heard that he even broke a finger in Yangzhou!"

Upon hearing this, the young man in white changed his face and said in shock: "It is impossible... Wen Baishan, how could this be?"

This news is too shocking! Who is Wen Baishan?

That was a truly cruel man. Not to mention in Yangzhou, even in Xijing, where there were hidden dragons, few people could compare with him! His hands were stained with the blood of the Yuan Dynasty in the court. As everyone knows, he was the most trusted knife of the emperor.

But he actually broke a finger in Yangzhou?

This is definitely... big news! I'm afraid that at this moment, the upper class of the court had been shocked by the breaking of this finger! "I didn't believe it when I heard the news."

The young man in bright yellow gold-dressed spoke and sighed: "Who could have thought that Wen Baishan would suffer such a big loss in Yangzhou?"

The young man in white looked extremely solemn and his throat was a little dry, "Is it that Yigua who made the move in Heliancheng Po?

How dare he..." "Not him," a hint of indifference flashed across the face of the young man in the Ming Huang Jinyi, "It is said that he is a young man named Li Fan."

Li Fan?

These two words made the young man in white fall into deep thoughts in an instant.

Never heard of it… “I sent someone to inquire. This person was originally a waste, but he was the son-in-law of the Zhao family. Not long ago, he was expelled from the Zhao family because he was a prostitute in a brothel. But since then, he shined. He defeated Guo Lianyue’s plan repeatedly, and even Wen Baishan suffered a great loss in his hands.”

"And, after this targeting Wenbaishan, he was still alive. Even his articles in Donglin County were praised by his father and he was given a geese pen by his father."

After the young man in the Ming Huang Jinyi said, he added: "This person is a bit weird."

Weird! "It's really weird..." The young man in white couldn't help but speak. Anyone who saw this contrast and legendary experience would be stunned.

"Your Highness meant that I would go to Yangzhou to suppress this beast?"

He immediately asked.

"This is just one of them," said the young man in the Ming Huang: "The most important thing is that the last arrangement was wrong and he failed to suppress Zhao Nantang. Now in Yangzhou, Guo Lianyue alone cannot suppress Zhao Nantang."

The young man in white pondered, "Apart from him, although the Yigua in Heliancheng is not up to the Tao, Yangzhou Zhili Prefecture is ours..." Before he finished speaking, the young man in Minghuang had already interrupted and said, "I have written to Gao Nanshi of the Zhili Prefecture of Yangzhou. When you go to Yangzhou, he will cooperate with you with all his strength."

When the young man in white heard this, he didn't say much, got up and bowed, and said, "Yes!"

"Wenyuan will definitely not be humiliated."

The young man in the golden clothes in Minghuang nodded, "I'm relieved when you go."

On the one hand, you have to win over Zhao Nantang. If possible, let him marry Guo Lianyue.”

"In addition, you have to control the imperial examinations in Yangzhou and cut off the foundation for Zhao Nantang's cultivation of power, especially the one named Li Fan, who must not let him make his name come true again.

Therefore, I have selected ten famous scholars from Xijing Taixue for you, and you will take them to Yangzhou to participate in the imperial examination in Yangzhou."

Upon hearing this, the young man in white looked even more serious. He was far from expecting that a mere Li Fan could make his Highness pay so much attention to it... "I understand?"

The young man in the bright yellow brocade looked at him indifferently.

The young man in white nodded, "I understand!"

"Go, thank you for your hard work. After the matter is completed, I will spoil your sister and give her a child, so it won't make her suffer."

The young man in the bright yellow brocade clothes said lightly, lowered his head and drank a sip of tea.

A hint of enthusiasm flashed in the eyes of the young man in white. He immediately bowed heavily and then retreated respectfully.

...Yangzhou.

All the twelve states in the world have a state governor to coordinate state affairs.

Under the Governor's Office, there were also two prefectures, including Zhili Prefecture and Zhougu Mansion.

Among them, the Zhili Prefecture actually manages government affairs of all sizes, and also has nine departments, including officials, criminal affairs, criminal prisons, civil property, inspections, taxes and tributes, and the county magistrates of each county are also under the Zhili Prefecture.

The prefecture guardian is to maintain the stability of one party. The county magistrates led by each county are under the jurisdiction of the prefecture guardian and hold the military power of a prefecture.

In short, Zhili Prefecture issued a government order to manage civil affairs, while the provincial guardian prefecture was in charge of military affairs.

Both governments are real power institutions. In addition to following the orders of the Governor's Office in the state, they also followed the six departments of the court and directly accepted the orders of the court.

At this moment, in the Zhili Prefecture of Yangzhou.

In a study, a middle-aged man in his fifties was wearing a wide blue official uniform, with a big belly, and a gray-white beard. His eyes revealed a wise light.

At this moment, his face full of wealth and flesh was very serious, staring at the letter in his hand and reading it over and over again.

"Sir, is there any instructions from the Jing Dynasty?"

In the study, there was an old man wearing a gray Confucian robe standing.

"Yes, Your Highness asked us to kill Zhao's mansion and Li Fan."

The middle-aged man put the letter aside, a little annoyed, "Guo Lianyue is not good at doing things well, so we have to deal with him this time, which is really annoying."

The old man pondered for a moment, "Can a mere Li Fan actually make His Highness pay so much attention to it?

This..." "Do you think Li Fan is not enough?"

The middle-aged man sneered, "Don't forget that his 's advice to study' is still popular in the city. Even the talented men in the Yangzhou Academy and the Imperial Academy are circulating, and he has a geese-feathered pen given by the emperor in his hand."

"Also, he seemed to have fought with Wen Baishan. No matter how much he valued such a person, it would not be too much!"

The old man nodded, "Then how do we arrange it?"

The middle-aged man was silent for a long time before saying, "It is not difficult for us to shake Zhao Nantang in Zhili Mansion. He must let Heliancheng break and go to our side!"

When the old man heard this, he nodded and said, "I heard that a few days ago, Murong Hu, the confidant of Helian Chengpo, went to Donglin County and gave Li Fan some gifts... Now Helian Chengpo's second daughter Helian Xiyue is also at the age of getting married. It is hard to say whether Helian is betting on both sides..." The middle-aged man smiled and said, "Then let's help Helian. In a few days, it will be the 'Wenxing Club' before the provincial examination. At that time, Helian Xiyue will probably go to the Shrimp West Lake to attend the meeting.

In front of her, let Li Fan fall a big fuck, and then exaggerate the fact that Li Fan had been in a prostitute and was expelled from the Zhao family... and made Li Fan smelly."

"Li Fan is a scholar after all. Even if he attracts Helian Chengpo's attention for a while, it will be difficult to really make Helian Chengpo bet on him. Therefore, as long as Li Fan has a problem, the possibility of Helian Chengpo and Zhao Nantang joining together will no longer exist..." He smiled and couldn't help but stroke his slightly gray beard! "Sir, a clever plan!"

The old man bowed deeply and couldn't help but admire.

...Donglin County.

"Master, the carriage is ready and your luggage is fully packed. You can leave for Zhao Mansion."

At Li Fan's mansion, Xiao Liuzi came to report.

Li Fan has turned a blind eye to the outside world these days and has been learning sword techniques from Ganti Flag. He found that in addition to directly learning martial arts from the system, he could also learn a lot from Ganti Flag. Moreover, he has the foundation of the first level of the Life and Death Sword, and has even comprehended the essence of some of the second level of sword techniques.
