On the second day, Fan Xiaodao came to Jianghu Department to report, and he officially took office.

He had worked in the Jianghu Department for a while, but at that time he was preparing for the martial arts conference, introducing the Jianghu New Policy, and reforming major sects. At that time, the crown prince Zhu Yan was in charge of the six gates. However, the final result was not very ideal. Not only did it not meet expectations, it gave Li Juefei an opportunity to create a giant like Ye Yulou, which was out of control.

As the name suggests, the Jianghu Department is the yamen that manages the Jianghu sects. The establishment, registration, filing, review and management of all the sects in the Jianghu Department are all in the Jianghu Department and its subordinate functional departments. At the same time, it also manages the Wulin United Council and has the function of mediating Jianghu disputes.

Jianghushi is affiliated to the Six Gates, but it is relatively independent. Overall, Fan Xiaodao, the Tissus, is very leisurely. Although Jianghushi has been established for a long time, overall, the management of Jianghushi sects is still in a relatively loose state.

The sects in the martial arts world need to register?

If I want to be a business person, do I need to be qualified to work?

What a joke!

Today's Jianghu Department is not very binding on the entire Jianghu, but it is essential for certain specific industries. For example, it is necessary to establish schools and sect apprentices, escort goods by escorts by escorts, and logistics gangs such as Cao Gang and Dajiang Gang. It is still very necessary to have a unified management.

There are more than 20 people in the Jianghu Department, and they are not big or small among the six doors. Since most of them know each other, Fan Xiaodao held a simple meeting and let everyone arrange it themselves. When everyone saw that the Tisci is so easy to talk to now, he praised him and continued to stumble.

Fan Xiaodao had no plans for Jianghusi.

Although Zhuge Xianyu asked him to find a way to advance the new policy of the world, and he started to deal with the historical problems left over from Yeyulou, for Fan Xiaodao, the most important thing at the moment is the cold poison on him.

Finding a way to survive is the first priority.

On that night of the Holy Book, his body was strange. Although the news was blocked, some rumors spread.

Fan Xiaodao is not afraid of rumors, but he is afraid of death.

In the past, cold poison occurred once a month, but recently, the interval between attacks has become shorter and shorter, which sometimes forgets to bring pills.

If there were a few more attacks, he was really worried that his body would not be able to bear it.

As for Jianghusi, let him go!

If Fan Xiaodao had thought about relying on the power in his hands to fulfill his oath when he joined the Six Gates, but the cases he had experienced over the past two years made him feel powerless. After the Holy Book, Fan Xiaodao even had the intention to retreat, and he had to think about himself!

He just sat down and made a pot of tea. Someone sent an invitation and said that Prince Zhu Yan wanted to see him.

After the Holy Book, he had not communicated with Zhu Yan yet.

In the past, the two of them fought side by side, sharing the joys and sorrows, and were still friends, but after the Holy Book, his identity was clearly revealed that the other party was his half-brother, and this elder brother had plotted against him. To be honest, he didn't really want to meet Zhu Yan.

But after thinking about it, I would have to face this matter sooner or later, so I agreed to go to the appointment.

In the afternoon of that day, Fan Xiaodao came to the East Palace.

A few days ago, His Majesty issued an edict to let the prince supervise the country, and he moved into Xiyuan again, and began the plan to cultivate immortals, which was considered to be the boss of the hand.

Now the crown prince’s mansion is crowded, and court officials come to discuss matters are endless.

Yuncai welcomed him into the side hall.

There were seven or eight court officials sitting inside, several of whom had seen them at night banquets in the palace. Among them, the highest official position was the new Dali Temple Minister Du Jinliang. At that time, because of Sun Mengwu and the case of the Jiangnan Mint, he had had several dealings with Du Jinliang. Both sides had a good impression of each other. Although they had no personal relationships, they did not hinder their appreciation.

When Du Jinliang saw Fan Xiaodao coming in, he quickly stood up, "So it's An Le Bo!"

Fan Xiaodao smiled, "Mr. Du, just call me Xiaodao or Captain Fan. Call An Le Bo, and I sound like calling someone else."

The two laughed.

The rest of the people saw their boss getting up immediately, and they also followed him.

Fan Xiaodao greeted them one by one.

Now he has a title and a quasi-prince, and his status in the capital cannot be compared.

When meeting the prince, you must queue up in the side hall. There must be rules for queuing. The higher the rank, the more forward it will be. The same level, first come first see.

As soon as Fan Xiaodao arrived, the others took the initiative to let the seats in front. Du Jinliang was originally sitting in the first place and directly pulled Fan Xiaodao over, "Captain Fan, sit here!"

Fan Xiaodao waved his hand, "How can you be so embarrassed?"

Du Jinliang pressed him in his seat.

There are also a few new faces who should have just been transferred from the local government to the capital city, and their ranks are also between the fourth and fifth ranks. However, when they see this young man with a low rank, chatting and laughing with their immediate boss, they can't figure out the situation, and they seem a little restrained.

Who is this young man? It depends on which official in the yamen dressed, why is Du Sicheng so polite to him?

Everyone can try it soon.】

Let’s look at the other ministers, the Minister of State. They were just talking loudly and laughing, but now they sit upright, looking at the nose, the nose, and the mouth, and the heart, like an old monk entering into meditation.

These exoteric officials knew the depth of the capital. They were just a little bit old, even if they had tens of millions of ambitions and various abilities, they had to be a human being first. They were all skilled in the officialdom, and they did not comment on their work, but their ability to observe words and expressions was first-class.

However, it took half an hour to get the chance to meet Zhu Yan.

After he left, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

One person asked, "Who was that person before? Why did even Du Sicheng give up his seat!"

Another man whispered: "In the capital, there are a few people who cannot provoke him, and this is one of them."

Fan Xiaodao walked on the road and couldn't help but sneeze.

After not seeing him for a few days, the prince Zhu Yan looked haggard. He was already in charge of the country. He was in power and should be glorious. How could he be even more tired than the time of the Holy Book? However, when he saw Fan Xiaodao coming, Zhu Yan was still happy and punched him on the shoulder, "I haven't come to see me for so many days, and I have to send someone to invite me?"

Fan Xiaodao smiled and said, "Don't you think you are busy? How about you? Now that you are a ruling country, how do you feel?"

Zhu Yan looked sad, "A mess! A mess! A mess! A mess! A mess! It's hard to describe!"

No, over the years, the prince has been determined to be in charge of government affairs and do something practical. Why has he become so negative after taking over for a few days?

Fan Xiaodao said, "Why do you say this?"

Zhu Yan invited Fan Xiaodao to the study room, and asked Yuncai to close the door and said, "My good brother is to be honest. The work of supervising the country is really not something that human beings do. The memorials that cannot be finished every day, the memorials that cannot be heard, and the favors of the various yamen have come to me. Even the cabinet does not make a vote and directly transfer the memorials to me. Today, the southern Xinjiang rebelled, the Sichuan flood tomorrow, the Fujian drought the day after tomorrow, and the natural disasters and man-made disasters are shocking. When each yamen comes to me, they only ask for money and officials!"

Fan Xiaodao smiled and said, "Isn't this good? I'm asking you to do things, don't look at people's faces."

Zhu Yan said: "What a big deal! The problem is that there is no money in the treasury now! You may not believe it. Now the imperial court’s Ministry of Revenue accounts cannot afford five million taels of silver! This time, this time, you can search for Taiping Taoist Temple. How much silver was found? Three million taels! The officials every day, like dog skin plaster, blocked you in the mansion, and it would not be possible to see him. I finally understood why my father lived in the West Garden and refused to go to court."

Instead of shirking responsibility with the ministers all day long, it is better to leave your hands and ignore them.

Can't afford to offend, can afford to hide.

You dogs bite dogs, and I will take the path of cultivation.

The road is facing the sky, and each walks halfway!

This is the rule of the emperor today.

But Zhu Yan is not an emperor. He has ideals and ambitions in his heart. He wants to do something practical for the world and the people that benefits the country and the people. But the current situation is that ideals are full and reality is skinny. When he wants to implement something, the ministers jump out and obstruct it in every way. This is difficult and that is difficult. When he issues a teaching order, dozens of refuting memorials will be handed over, either contrary to the former residence of his ancestors, or ask His Majesty’s opinions again?

Fan Xiaodao said: "Hasn't Your Majesty already delegated power?"

This is exactly what makes Zhu Yan’s headache.

"Delegation of power? Nothing! The third-rank or above officials and the military power are all in the hands of my father, and the space for me to operate is too small. My father put me in this position and was responsible for making money for the inner court. After all, cultivating immortals and asking, it was a very expensive thing."

Fan Xiaodaoqi said: "He is still practicing immortality now?"

Zhu Yan said: "He persisted in this matter for twenty years, how could he give up easily?"

Fan Xiaodao smiled bitterly and said, "You called me over, aren't you just trying to let me listen to your complaints?"

Zhu Yan said: "I came to you for two things. First, I want to thank you for the events of the Holy Book that night."

"Thank me? I can't afford it."

Zhu Yan said seriously: "I know that the Qifeng Pavilion incident made you confused for a long time, and my father always owe you an explanation. However, if it weren't for you, we would have died at the hands of King Gaoyang that night."

Fan Xiaodao shook his head slightly.

Zhu Yan continued, "Second, I want to apologize to you!"

Fan Xiaodao was so shocked that he said, "Apology?"

Zhu Yan said: "Yes. I have indeed had some tacit understanding between me and my aunt over the years. You also know that my father is very suspicious and some things are done for him to see. The internal struggle between us is also popular with the father. However, there are still differences between me and my aunt in terms of your affairs."

"So that day, I was the person the Ghost King on Mingcui Lake was going to kill?"

Zhu Yan was shocked, "Do you know?"

Fan Xiaodao shook his head, "I guess."

Zhu Yan said: "At the beginning, your identity as a prince was exposed. My aunt thought you would be a threat to me in the future, so she was so angry that she wanted to kill. Although I did not agree, I did not stop her. If you hadn't been good at martial arts and noticed something strange, it would have caused a disaster. After this incident, I had a big fight with my aunt. She kept saying that it was for me to clear the obstacles. Who would have expected that she had something to do with King Gaoyang?"

Things have passed, and it has become meaningless to pursue them again.

He asked, "Princess Taiping, how have you been lately?"

Zhu Yan looked solemn and shook his head, "I haven't seen her before, and I don't want to hear from her again."

The prince and Taiping have completely cut off their ties now.

Taiping Taoist Temple was seized, Princess Taiping was placed under house arrest in the princess's house, and deprived of all power, and only retained the title of the late emperor and eldest princess, which had long been no longer glorious! Moreover, there have been rumors in the market that someone found a gorgeously dressed mad woman in Caishikou, suspected to be Princess Taiping, and no one went to verify it.
