Chapter 426

『Click the chapter and report an error』

"Do it, do it." Seeing that his sister was furious, the young emperor could only agree with Liu Ning. However, he was seventeen years old now and had been working as the emperor for six or seven years. Even if he was influenced by the eyes, he learned some power skills. So he thought for a while and then said, "Although my brother-in-law deserves this Anhan Gong, almost everyone knows that Anhan Gong has only been Wang Mang in our dynasty. If I sign my brother-in-law as Anhan Gong, I'm afraid even if my brother-in-law has no selfish intentions, everyone in the world will guess that my brother-in-law will follow Wang Mang's footsteps. This will make my brother-in-law suspicious by the world. Brother-in-law Yu is not good. My younger brother-in-law thinks that my brother-in-law is from Wenxi County, Hedong, and this is the territory of the Gu Jin State. It is better to sign my brother-in-law as Jin State and divide the place in Hedong County and establish Jin State in addition to Pingyang State. I wonder what my sister wants?"

The main purpose of the young emperor's desire to grant Pei Qing the Duke of Jin was to let Pei Qing go to the state of Jin. In this way, he would not have to be controlled by Pei Qing in Luoyang. Pei Qing became his Duke and his emperor. In the future, he would seek to seize Pei Qing's power bit by bit at the right time and achieve a peaceful transition of power. He would also be the leader of the revival in the future.

However, Liu Ning's internal affairs are far superior to him, and he can see through his plans at a glance, but Liu Ning doesn't intend to expose it because she has a way to break the little emperor's plan.

Although Liu Ning is still the eldest princess of the Han family, she is Pei Qing's wife. The so-called extroverted girl is not fake at all. As long as the Han regime still exists in form, she will try her best to win benefits for Pei Qing, because she understands the principle that both prosper and both prosper and lose. The reason why she is so strong in the palace is actually mainly because Pei Qing is supported by her. Otherwise, even if she is the emperor's sister, she would not be as aggressive as she is now. Once Pei Qing falls down, her status will not be guaranteed. Besides, she has given birth to a son now, and Pei Qing named him Pei Du. Even if Liu Ning doesn't think about herself, she should think about her son. Whether from the perspective of being a wife or a mother, she cannot let Pei Qing suffer a loss.

Besides, after experiencing the instigation of her younger brother by those eunuchs, she knew that her younger brother had insufficient experience in handling internal affairs and was easily tempted, so she naturally became even more worried about the emperor.

So Liu Ning said, "You are right. Actually, Pei Qing said that. In order to motivate him to welcome you back, I proposed that as long as I drive Cao Cao away and welcome you back, I would recommend him as An Han Gong. He said at that time, I put him on fire and didn't agree at all. I also made my own decision. Now you propose to be named Duke Jin, which is actually the best, but it wouldn't look good if I simply label my Pingyang Kingdom. That would be like this."

The little emperor was speechless when he heard this, and at the same time he was relieved. He originally thought that Pei Qing wanted his sister to come and ask for an official position, but he did not expect that his sister would make his own decisions. However, he also realized that even his sister was unfair, which was enough to prove that he was indeed a little harsh on Pei Qing before.

However, when she was about to An Hangong, her elder sister was really good at speaking. Should she be facing her younger brother or Pei Qing?

However, the little emperor did not dare to say such words. He quickly said with a shame: "It's all my fault that I was not careful in the past, treated my brother-in-law badly, and made my sister so careless. I went there for a long trip. Since that's the case, then I will order someone to issue an edict to enthrone my brother-in-law. But if my brother-in-law's country, who will be responsible in Xijing? And I, Luoyang, originally wanted to rely on my brother-in-law to help me handle government affairs."

When Liu Ning heard this, he knew that her younger brother had finally exposed the fox's tail. The little emperor wanted to completely throw away Pei Qing through this matter, but how could she allow such a thing to happen? So he said, "Actually, the country is not a country that is not a king. Besides, even the king is not unable to hold a state official position. Pei Qing is now the prime minister. He has always been in the capital. No matter when the prime minister has not been able to overview the affairs of the state affairs. In fact, the internal affairs of the Duke of the State can be directly sent to deal with, and the kingdom can be sent to deal with it, let alone a principal? In addition, it is not good to divide my Pingyang Kingdom into another state. It is better to join the State of Jin together. Anyway, we are not distinguished from each other."

When the little emperor heard this, he felt cold. He was originally going to leave Pei Qing and did it himself, but he didn't expect that the road would be blocked by his sister. However, he also knew that the officials in the court are all Pei Qing's people now. Even if he left Pei Qing alone, who would be loyal to him?

Since he knew that Pei Qing would definitely come no matter what, why should the little emperor show an unwelcome look? He has lived with powerful officials for several years and naturally knows how to adapt. So he forced himself to smile and said, "That's good, I'm still worried that my brother-in-law will not come."

In fact, Pei Qing had already discussed the issue of not being able to Luoyang with Liu Ning. According to Pei Qing's idea, he stayed in Chang'an and directly sent several internal affairs experts who were loyal to him to control the center. After all, the world is not unified yet, and the little emperor's ability is not strong. In addition, he lacks experience, so he cannot control the whole country at all. At the same time, he gave the emperor the necessary freedom, allowing him to freely appoint harem officials and confer concubines, and other matters will be discussed after unification.

However, the little emperor actually thought about seizing his power as soon as he returned to Luoyang. Not to mention that he did not have such strength at all. Even if he succeeded in seizing, how could he have enough prestige to convince the world?

So Pei Qing decided to go to Luoyang in person. As for Chang'an, he was going to leave it to Pei Qian for his management. Pei Qing and Pei Qian's current abilities are strong enough. In addition to force, his command, intelligence and internal affairs are all as high as 90 yuan. He is also loyal to himself and is nominally his own clan brother, so he is naturally a good candidate.

As for another brother Pei Yuanshao, Pei Qing now asked him to be the Sima of the Duke of Jin, responsible for the guards and public security of Jin, and added the military position of the lieutenant general. On the one hand, Pei Yuanshao serves his own people and shows his affection. On the other hand, his position is not low and he can take care of his face. At the same time, he has experienced it in Jin, made up for his merits, and he will have the opportunity to continue to be promoted in the future. This arrangement is also appropriate.

Of course, there is also a chief and historian in charge of the entire Jin government. His status is also important enough, even less than Pei Yuanshao's Sima. After some searching, Pei Qing finally chose Xie An. Xie An was capable, famous, loyal to himself, and intelligence was also high. He could also be Pei Yuanshao's military advisor at a critical moment. Moreover, as the chief and minister of the Jin government, he also represented a kind of honor, that is, Pei Qing's favor to Xie An. After all, everyone can see that Pei Qing is now holding power, and he will definitely have a broader future with him. What's more, his abilities are all given by Pei Qing. His loyalty to Pei Qing has reached the extreme, so after hearing about the appointment, he was immediately excited.

After all this was arranged, Pei Qing began to order his Prime Minister's Mansion to Luoyang.
