The emperor's decree was a bolt from the blue for Yin.
He couldn't understand why the emperor interfered in the marriage of his ministers without any reason. Would you like to review a few more memorials when you have time?
It's nothing more than interfering in the marriage. What do you mean by demoting my official position for no reason?
"Mr. Han, are you worried too much? The emperor wouldn't do such a thing, right?" Yu Yin still couldn't believe it at this moment.
Han Sui sighed and said, "I'm really not overly worried. Young Master might as well read the imperial edict carefully twice and then you'll understand."
Yu Yin said unwillingly: "My father was once a renouncer of the crown prince, and he supported Conglong when the emperor was in hiding. How could he be so ruthless to Conglong's old ministers?"
Han Sui shook his head and said: "The emperor was originally the legitimate son. When he was appointed as the crown prince by the late emperor, Wei King Li Tai had already lost power. The emperor had no worries about seizing the legitimate son. There were many old ministers from Conglong back then. If our Yu family has done something now, the emperor How could he care about the feelings of the past when it was something uncomfortable?"
Yu Yin said in astonishment: "My marriage to Prince Teng's daughter has made the emperor uncomfortable? Why?"
Han Sui's eyes flashed, he pondered for a long time, and said softly: "I heard that the emperor thinks highly of Li Qinzai in particular. They are both monarchs and ministers, but they are like brothers in private. I am afraid that the emperor will support Li Qinzai and want to abolish this imperial edict. A marriage..."
"But Li Qinzai is already a married man, how could the Lord of Jinxiang County..."
Han Sui sneered and said: "In the capital of the Tang Dynasty, all kinds of messy things are possible. If the emperor is backing him, what does it mean for the county chief to marry a married woman? What is the origin of the current queen and how was she appointed? Could it be Shao Langjun? Don’t know?”
"If you, young master, have time to wander around the streets of Chang'an for a few days, you will hear many rumors about the Tian family and the powerful. Those rumors are simply... ha, it is quite an eye-opener for people from our small place."
Yu Yin said with a gloomy face: "Mr. Han, the emperor has issued a decree, what should we do?"
Han Sui sighed and said, "What else can we do? Pack your luggage immediately and leave Beijing tomorrow to go to Shuzhou. Otherwise? Do you dare to resist the order and disobey it?"
Yu Yin was silent. He didn't have the courage, and everyone in the Yu family didn't have the courage.
"About the marriage with the Lord of Jinxiang County..." Yu Yin said unwillingly.
Han Sui pondered for a moment and said, "I'll stop for a moment and go to Prince Teng's Mansion in person to ask His Highness Prince Teng what he wants. Young Master, please wait."
Yu Yin nodded solemnly and said, "Since Mr. Han is busy, I'll go to Chang'an West Market to take a walk and relax."
Han Sui was worried and said: "Young Master, there are dragons and crouching tigers in the capital. Please don't cause trouble, Young Master."
"You won't cause trouble."

British government.
In the flower hall of the side courtyard, Li Qinzai was having a banquet with Xue Nagaoqi and others.
He felt a little irritable. After the incident between him and the head of Jinxiang County went through a turmoil, it was inexplicably deadlocked and there was no progress.
Li Qinzai did not want to use means to force King Teng, but he could not sit back and watch Jinxiang be promised to others. The dilemma made him feel very unhappy, so he returned to the Duke's Mansion and called his friends to drink and relax.
"Brother Jingchu, the news has spread all over Chang'an City," Xue Ne cupped his hands towards him and said with a smile: "I have to say, brother Jingchu's ability really makes me awe-inspiring. He actually talked to the head of Jinxiang County... "
Li Qinzai glanced at him: "I always feel that your words don't seem like compliments to me..."
Xue Na said sternly: "Young brother has no intention of mocking Brother Jingchu. A real man is born in this world, so he should... well, what, it doesn't matter if he finds a few more wives. The wives that he has slept with in his life..."
Before he finished speaking, Gao Qi interrupted him coldly: "Have you ever slept with the county lord? If you haven't, then shut up and don't take advantage of those prostitutes."
Xue Ne hesitated for a moment, then jumped up: "The one named Gao..."
Before he could finish his words, Li Qinzai's eyes were quick to stop him and he said, "I am the protagonist of today's drinking, so just stay with me quietly and don't steal the show."
Xue Ne's anger was quickly suppressed, and he quickly said with a smile: "The affair between brother Jingchu and the head of Jinxiang County has been spread throughout Chang'an, why are you not happy? If I were you, stupid brother, you would go to the streets right now and pick up
How proud to receive the envious eyes of the people of Chang'an. "
Li Qinzai said coldly: "Prince Teng wants to marry Jinxiang to the Yu family, do you think I should be happy?"
Xue Ne was stunned for a moment, and then said in shock: "What's going on? I didn't hear about it, my foolish brother."
Gao Qi whispered from the side: "I heard from my father that Prince Teng and the Yu family of the Heluo clan are discussing marriage. It is said that birthday invitations have been exchanged..."
Xue Ne said in confusion: "Even you have heard about it, why didn't I notice it?"
Gao Qi said slowly: "Is there a possibility that my family is the Duke of the country, and your family is just a county boy. There is a gap of several ranks. Of course, the news cannot reach the lower-level Xue family..."
This time, before Xue Ne could jump into a rage, Li Qinzai gave Gao Qi a slap in the face with his backhand: "You have such a poisonous mouth, how can you be fed by Hedinghong?"
Gao Qi was beaten to silence, and Xue Na was greatly relieved and immediately smiled.
Then Xue Ne stopped his smile and said, "Where did this Heluo Yu family... come from?"
Li Qinzai said in a deep voice: "His father Yu Su was once a descendant of the prince. Later he retired and became an official. His son Yu Yin proposed marriage to Prince Teng's Mansion in Chang'an..."
Xue Ne opened his eyes wide: "In other words, the guy who married the Lord of Jinxiang County is in Chang'an now?"
Li Qinzai nodded dullly.
There was murderous intent in Xue Ne's eyes: "Oh, you dare to grab food from the tiger's mouth, and you dare to break into the dragon pool and the tiger's den alone, you have the guts! Brother Jingchu sit quietly, brother Yu will help you deal with him now! The legitimate son of the Yu family disappeared inexplicably, Jin Who else can the county leader marry?"
After saying that, Xue Na just stood up and was pushed back by Li Qinzai.
Li Qinzai sighed with a tired look on his face: "I've had enough troubles recently. Don't cause any more trouble. Rumors are spreading in Chang'an City. I'm afraid the imperial censor has already targeted me."
Compared to Xue Ne's impulsiveness, Gao Qi was undoubtedly much calmer. Hearing the words, he said slowly: "Brother Jingchu, since the son of the Yu family is in Chang'an, even if we don't fight or kill him, we must let him retreat when he sees difficulties... …”
Li Qinzai glanced at him and said, "What are your ideas?"
Gao Qi said with a smile: "Brother Jingchu, if you trust brother Yu, leave this matter to me. I will ensure that the son of the Yu family is frightened and breaks off the engagement with Prince Teng's Mansion decisively..."
Li Qinzai said in a very disrespectful manner: "Then give him another chance to show off. Before leaving, he said: Thirty years to the east of Hedong, thirty years to the west of Hexi. Don't bully young people into poverty?"
Gao Qi laughed and said, "Brother Jingchu is overly worried. The Yu family is just a down-and-out Heluo clan. Both your family and I are from royal backgrounds. If he wants to marry the head of Jinxiang County, I'm afraid it won't be that easy..."
Xue Ne next to him opened his mouth, but stopped talking.
Gao Qi added in a dignified manner: "...There is also a county boy."
Xue Ne snorted angrily: "I'll tell dad later to let him gain some momentum and become the Duke of the country as soon as possible!"
Gao Qi ignored him and said: "Xue Ne and I came forward to meet with the Yu family member and promise not to do anything to him and not to let brother Jingchu fall into criticism. We will deal with this guy without bloodshed and let him Get out of Chang'an City yourself."
Li Qinzai rubbed his face and murmured: "With this strong smell of conspiracy and the deceitful faces of women, I always feel like I am becoming more and more like a villain..."
