A lazy bum transmigrates and marries a eunuch – it's awesome!

If we were to name the most depressed person in the Great Jin Dynasty this past year, it would undoubtedly be His Highness the Regent.

Not only did Xiao Yuan, who could share half the workload, run away, but his top bodyguard also ran away.

Even his lover, Azhuo, was gone forever, like throwing a meat bun to a dog.

Is it really that good outside?

While you're having so much fun that you don't even think about what I should do?

With Xiao Yuan away, all the work fell on his shoulders. Even with help from others, he still had to make the decisions on major matters.

My position remained the same, my salary didn't increase, but my workload doubled.

Especially since that guy was accompanying his wife on a publicly funded trip while he and Azhuo were separated, Jin Zekang felt like he was being taken advantage of.

Another issue is that Bao Beibei never returned, and since she left, I haven't had any top-tier combat power by my side.

If the quality isn't good enough, you can only make up for it with quantity. Every time I go out, I'm surrounded by a large group of people and I'm always on edge.

This guy is indeed Jiang Xinyu's friend; they both dare to fight, act unpredictably, and are lawless.

Throughout history, many top military generals have amassed considerable power and influence, but none have been as audacious as her in directly demanding territory from the imperial court.

Look at what kind of nonsense this is.

They should make her a princess.

They should give her the Quanrong as her fiefdom.

The people need to be relocated to support her reform efforts.

How is this different from rebellion?

Bao Beibei seemed to have anticipated some of his remarks, and since communication between the two places was difficult, she simply wrote everything down.

First of all, this is certainly different from rebellion.

So what if she becomes a princess of the Great Jin and has a fiefdom? In the end, this place also belongs to the Great Jin.

After she dies, this land will be inherited by the people of the Great Jin Dynasty and will not fall into the hands of foreign tribes.

Furthermore, those who were led there were all from the Great Jin Dynasty, speaking the Great Jin language, writing the Great Jin script, and following the Great Jin tradition.

No matter what, they would never be like the Quanrong people, burning, killing, looting, and becoming enemies of the Great Jin.

But all that talk is nonsense; what really moved Jin Zexuan was the last point.

Bao Beibei wanted this place not only for herself.

This was also to leave a way out for Jiang Xinyu and her husband, as well as for him, the regent.

Now the young emperor is inexperienced and naturally relies on the two of them for everything, but throughout history, very few regents and ministers like them have had a good ending.

People change, especially those who become emperors.

Bao Beibei felt that once the young emperor was able to rule in his own right, both families should leave the capital and completely sever ties with the court.

Don't even think about giving them a helping hand. As long as those two powerful figures are keeping those officials in the court in check, they won't be able to serve the young emperor wholeheartedly.

If you're going to delegate authority, then delegate it completely and cleanly, so that the other party feels comfortable and at ease.

The smell is from both near and far.

If they don't want to go to war with the children they raised, it would be best for them to back down while they're ahead.

But the entire Great Jin Dynasty, whether in the prosperous Jiangnan region or the militarily strong Northwest, was at its peak.

To be honest, the Emperor would never truly feel at ease no matter where they went.

It would be better to remain in a remote corner of the country, far away, so that even if the young emperor wanted to exterminate them, he would be powerless to stop them.

Jin Zekang's ability to become the final winner is certainly not due to his naivety.

Even though he personally chose him, he can't guarantee that the little wolf cub won't turn his back on him once Jin Zeyu comes of age and takes over the reins of government.

Since that's the case, why not take advantage of the power you have now to support Bao Beibei and leave yourself a way out?

Even if you don't need it in the future, there's no loss.

Such a large territory as Quanrong needed to be guarded.

Rather than giving it to some unknown person who might be fueling their ambition, it would be better to give it to this enlightened monk who, instead of being a prince, only wanted to be a girl.

Jin Zekang felt a toothache whenever he thought about Bao Beibei's true identity.

The most enlightened holy monk, who appears only once every few centuries, actually came up with the idea of ​​using smallpox to destroy a nation.

He can no longer look at Buddhist scriptures directly.

What's the point of chanting scriptures every day?

Isn't it said that Buddha is compassionate?

Why wasn't there any attempt to influence them through physical exorcism?

When he first heard the news, he wanted to ask Bao Beibei if she had a part-time job in the underworld.

Is this because the King of Hell couldn't meet his performance targets and asked her to take action?

Of the millions of Quanrong people, only tens of thousands of women and children remained. In the hundreds of years of history, there has never been such a heinous and horrific case of national annihilation.

However, Jin Zekang did not feel sorry for the Quanrong.

After all, the tragedy that occurred more than 600 years ago was committed by the Quanrong against the Great Jin.

Historical records describe that period as three years of severe drought followed by three years of locust plagues, and half a year of snowstorms leading to cannibalism.

The people of the Great Jin Dynasty were almost completely wiped out by the Quanrong.

That time, the world was in chaos and all countries suffered disasters. The population of the Quanrong was not affected much, but the Great Jin was almost wiped out by being eaten.

The Quanrong people completely followed the lifestyle of wild beasts, leaving all the food for the elderly, weak, women, and children, while the men went out in droves to burn, kill, plunder, and eat people.

Later, the continuous natural disasters meant that even the families who remained in the Quanrong territory had to survive by eating dried human flesh transported back with them.

Perhaps this is what they call the cycle of karma and the inescapable retribution; the Quanrong have finally repaid the debt of lives they owed 600 years ago.

During the past year, while Xiao Yuan was away from the capital, the officials in his area were not suppressed.

However, whenever there was a disagreement with Jin Zekang, he would still habitually go to the Marquis's residence to seek advice from the heir apparent and Lord He Zhang.

Jin Zekang didn't make a decision immediately after receiving the letter; he called the two of them over to discuss it together.

It's no small matter to inexplicably bestow the title of princess upon an orphan girl, let alone to transfer the territory of an entire country to her.

He can handle his own people, but the officials from Xiao Yuan's faction will require the two of them to deal with them.

This was not difficult for He Zhang, and soon the imperial decree bestowing upon Bao Beibei the title of Princess Yong'an was issued.

Two decrees conferring titles were also issued at the same time.

First, Xu Zuyin, the garrison commander of Beirong Pass, was granted the title of Duke of Rong for his meritorious service in destroying the Quanrong royal city.

Secondly, General Xie Zhuo, who led the reinforcements, recovered seven cities of the Quanrong and was enfeoffed as the Marquis of Dingbei.

The court officials had no firsthand information about who had made the greatest contributions and who had made the least contributions on the battlefield.

However, judging from the current situation, apart from the inexplicable Princess Yong'an, the other two are indeed deserving of their titles.

After all, it is a fact that the Quanrong's capital city and twelve subordinate cities were brought under the control of the Great Jin Dynasty, so granting them a duke and a marquis title was really not much.

As for the credit of others, we can wait for the commander-in-chief Xu Zuyin to report it.

As the commander-in-chief of the three armies, he had that right, and Jin Zekang also believed that this man would not be so foolish as to eliminate dissidents and suppress loyal officials.

Xu Zuyin certainly doesn't know how.

Aside from the fact that he deliberately added some other basic facts to the story of the willow catkins, he also mentioned that they were true.

For a commander-in-chief, failing to clearly define rewards and punishments is a major taboo.

The army currently consists of three types of troops: his original troops, the troops brought by Bao Beibei, and Xie Zhuo's follow-up troops.

Even if he wanted to give his trusted confidants more benefits, he wouldn't openly tamper with their achievements.

He's already a Duke, and he'll have plenty of time to request titles for his subordinates in the future. There's no need for him to get in Bao Beibei and Xie Zhuo's way at this time.

Both of them were the Regent's people, and Bao Beibei had a very close relationship with the Lady of the Marquis of Zhenguo.

They have connections in the imperial court, which makes things easier for them.

He, a loyal subject who had no merit in supporting the emperor, could only be sensible.
