After untying the bandage and looking at the finished work, Mr. Jiang couldn't help but marvel. He had completely changed his appearance. A young man with a straight nose and a square mouth turned into a feminine young man with a pointed jaw and peach blossom eyes. I need to apply some more rouge and gouache to make a good piece of glass.
This is all the result of the younger sister and the old guy. The influence from his previous life and the ten years of practicing medical skills with the old guy in this life allowed him to accomplish this.
Mr. Gu was even more amazed and amazed. The coveting of the four great evil arts is getting stronger and stronger.
Soon after, under the strong recommendation of Mr. Jiang, Mr. Mu Qiuyun, whose pseudonym was Yunqiu, entered Prince Ning's Mansion as his junior disciple. Then he came up with several good ideas based on Jiang Fan's instruction, successfully joined the staff group, and became the chief of staff as Jiang Chang. His identity became an important figure.
It's just that people in the eldest prince's house privately call this guy who is indifferent to male and female and has evil intentions as Young Master Yin.
The advantage of this kind of personality is that the eldest prince has nothing to be wary of. After all, Taifu Jiang only admired his junior brother's talent, but was very dismissive of his Longyang habit.
With this Yin Master Yunqiu, Jiang Fan knew that he could escape immediately.
After all, it was impossible for him to stay here, and it would not happen overnight for the eldest prince to rise again and confront the second son. As long as there was someone in Prince Ning's palace who could pass the message on his behalf.
But before leaving, he still used a wave of ruthlessness to purge those of the eldest prince's subordinates who still had resistance, impure thoughts, and contradictory opinions. Yun Qiu was not happy about killing the eldest prince's men, and was very happy to catch the sword for him. In this way, this guy's sinister reputation became more and more popular.
There was bound to be a backlash, but with the absolute trust of the eldest prince, Jiang Fan was able to do it easily. Only in this process, Jiang Fan discovered that Lin Zhaoji was becoming more and more suspicious of him.
Jiang Fan once thought that he had exposed his flaws somewhere, but it wasn't until he had an in-depth talk with Tian Mol that he suddenly realized it.
What's the flaw? It's basically a woman's intuition. Especially for a talented and thoughtful woman like Lin Zhaoji, her intuition is even sharper. After all, Mr. Jiang is not a real woman in the final analysis.
There is no way to change this, Mr. Jiang can only let nature take its course.
However, Lin Zhaoji's level of opposition to Jiang Fan's purge was still beyond his imagination. He even found the eldest prince many times and reminded him repeatedly not to give Jiang Changshi too much power.
Although the eldest prince disagreed at first, he couldn't stand Lin Zhaoji's repeated reiterates. Coupled with the trust that the two had established since childhood, the eldest prince still hesitated, and then made some restrictions on Jiang Fan without leaving any trace.
Jiang Fan laughed it off. As long as Sima Jing still wanted the throne, these little tricks would be useless. But it just happened to provide him with the best excuse to leave.
And what a coincidence, Moling suddenly started to exert force. In fact, it's very simple to think about it. Although the eldest prince did things very secretly, how could Sima Ji really feel at ease with him? Therefore, it is no surprise that some of his actions during this period aroused the vigilance of the new crown prince.
Immediately, Sima Ji began to arrange his methods. First, he implemented a decree through the court officials behind him, that is, the private army of the vassal king should not exceed five thousand. It directly restricted the power of the eldest prince.
Secondly, severely cracking down on the style of exchanges between court officials and local governments made many courtiers feel in danger, and then tied their hands, which greatly restricted the contact between Sima Jing and the courtiers.
Third, he quickly sent a new county governor through the King of Jin. Although this person was recommended through a formal examination, everyone knew what was going on.
As soon as these measures were taken, several shackles were placed on the eldest prince, and his hands and feet were restrained.
This made him very angry. So he went to Tai Fu Jiang to ask for advice.
Taifu Jiang had a wry smile on his face and remained silent for a long time. It wasn't until he was annoyed by Sima Jing that he sadly expressed that he had lost trust with the eldest prince and it was difficult to do things.
This moment made the eldest prince really panic. No wonder, faced with such a situation recently, Jiang Taifu didn't stand up and come up with an idea. He was feeling unhappy.
Is this a big deal? The eldest prince immediately lifted all restrictions on Taifu Jiang and apologized sincerely.
But the eldest son was very frightened. Taifu Jiang looked gloomy, as if he was having a hard time getting through this situation.
The extremely worried eldest prince finally made up his mind and sent Lin Zhaoji away directly. And publicly declared Jiang Ruochen's status as Taifu among the staff group.
Finally, Taifu Jiang took action again, and once he took action, he was reversed. Three days later, the Jing'an County Sheriff claimed to be sick and recuperated, and did not care about Jing'an's affairs.
Then Taifu Jiang personally reduced the private army to 2,000 men, which was 3,000 less than the court required. He also asked Sima Jing to write a letter stating his support for the imperial policy.
The eldest prince was originally puzzled, but the disarmament was quickly praised by his father. The soft-hearted King of Jin felt more and more guilty that he had done too much to his eldest son. Under the lobbying of Bai Shigong and others, he simply transferred all the cultivated land in Jing'an to The title was given to him, and the farmers in Jing'an changed from paying taxes to the court to being tenants of the prince.
Taifu Jiang backhandedly changed a lot of cultivated land to the military-acreage system, and those soldiers who had been laid off immediately became military households. They were civilians on the surface, but they could serve as soldiers in wartime. Instead of decreasing, the number of soldiers increased significantly. Later, through Tian Yao and Zhang Yi, he increased troops in the Xia Kingdom at the mouth of Longjiang River, which put Jing'an into a state of relative emergency. The governor of Jing'an County claimed to be ill, and the garrison power actually fell into the hands of the eldest prince.
At this point, the eldest prince finally became the de facto military and political leader of Jing'an, completely isolating the court from outside.
As for the court officials, Taifu Jiang asked the eldest prince not to contact him for the time being. It would be better to keep a low profile and keep a low profile.
Taifu Jiang took action and all the problems were solved. The eldest prince was immediately relieved and breathed a sigh of relief, completely strengthening his confidence in this Taifu.
He never expected that just when he was happiest, he would see the letter left by Taifu Jiang. she left.
When the eldest prince discovered that Taifu Jiang had suddenly disappeared, he held the letter and screamed at the heavens and the earth. He fainted several times.
Taifu Jiang left a letter asking him to declare that his master was seriously ill and that he would go back to take care of him. He would come back to serve him when he was well.
But only the eldest prince who had fully read the letter knew that the Taifu was doing it for himself. The real reason was that the court had already targeted the eldest prince, and even the chief of staff, Jiang Changshi. As long as this person was still there, The imperial court would naturally continue to target him. In order to allow the eldest prince to act smoothly, he had no choice but to endure the pain and temporarily retreat to appease the imperial court.
During this period, Taifu Jiang had sorted out all the follow-up affairs into a book and handed it to the eldest prince. He also explained that Yun Qiu had been explained in detail and he could handle the daily affairs on his behalf. If there is anything special, you can contact him through letters from his junior brother Yun Qiu, and the contact information has been given to Yun Qiu.
With tears in his eyes, he read the thick handwritten letter and sincere instructions left by Taifu Jiang. The eldest prince beat his chest, heartbroken and filled with guilt. The Taifu treated him like this, and he actually had doubts about her. He was simply not a human being. Already.
