It is rumored that the two have a lot of grudges, in fact, Ji Yun's relationship with Hezhen is like a year-old friendship. Young and outgoing. The elderly, gradually introverted and sleek Ji Yunhui always reminds and kindly reminds he. The two have both quarrels brought about by different political views and tacit cooperation. In the work, it is more about Heyun's care for Ji Yun; in interpersonal relationships, it is more about Ji Yun's help for Ji Yun. At the same time, Ji Yun also knows his own abilities very well, and although he is unmatched in literature, he is far inferior to Hezhen in governing the country and managing money.
