Chapter 174: Promotion
"Your Majestyβββ"
Li Xin smiled bitterly: "It's not long since the subordinate came back from southern Xinjiang, besides, this transportation of military funds should be a matter for the Ministry of Warβββ
"If you are told to go, you will go."
Chengde Tianzi said indifferently: "Originally, it was not your turn to go if you wanted to, this is for the sake of you to get these clairvoyant mirrors, I will reward you." β
His Majesty the Emperor said in a calm tone: "You can take the lieutenant battalion under your command, if you don't have enough manpower, you can find Ye Lan to transfer another lieutenant battalion, your status as a lieutenant is too low, go back and promote you to be the captain of Yulin Weidu, and bring four hundred people to escort the spirits to the north." β
Only then did Li Xin understand that His Majesty the Emperor wanted to make himself an official.
If Li Xin is now twenty-seven or eighteen years old, then no matter what kind of official position he does, it will not be too abrupt, but he is only seventeen years old now, and most of the young people of this age in the capital are still in the school to prepare for the Xiucai exam.
Therefore, the Son of Chengde wanted Li Xin to go to the north, so that he could take this opportunity to quietly promote Li Xin to the lieutenant of Yulin.
You must know that there are 400 people under a captain, and the entire Yulinwei is only eight captains together.
Except for Li Xin, most of the other lieutenants were Zhang Xiao's age, and they were all young at thirty years old, and most of them were around forty years old.
Emperor Chengde squinted his eyes and said: "The first time you take so many people out of Beijing, most of them will not know what to do, and they may make mistakes. β
Good fellow, His Majesty the Emperor has even thought of this, and he has arranged himself clearly......
Speaking of which, Li Xin has to go if he doesn't want to, after all, in front of the imperial power, there is no room for refusal.
Fortunately, this time the task is not heavy, and it is not as dangerous as in southern Xinjiang, listen to the meaning of His Majesty the Emperor, after he comes back from the north, he can be the captain of Yulinwei.
Seventeen-year-old Captain Habayashi!
Li Xin took a deep breath, bent over and said, "The subordinates obey the order!" β
Emperor Chengde waved his hand: "Okay, you go down first, prepare for these few days, and in a few days, when Lao Qi gets a hundred jars of wine, you will leave for the north, if you need anything, go to Ye Luan, I will greet him." β
Li Xingong said yes.
He is now the captain of Yulinwei, and there is a captain battalion of 200 people under his hands, and this trip to Chengde Tianzi allowed him to bring 400 people, which means that he became the captain of Yulinwei in advance.
This is the intention of His Majesty the Emperor to promote himself.
You must know that Zhang Hao, who is also working in Yulinwei, has been in the position of captain of Yulinwei for more than ten years, if it weren't for Li Xin squeezing out his position as captain, I'm afraid he would still be a captain and would not have the position of captain of Yulin.
You must know that half a year ago, Li Xin was just a poor man in Beishan who almost froze to death, and he did not hesitate to write big-character posters to attack the emperor in order to survive.
In just half a year, Li Xin has met too many people and encountered too many things in this capital...
After Li Xin bowed down and left the palace, the Son of Chengde took out the golden dragon pattern clairvoyant mirror and played with it for a while, and finally smiled dumbly at the chief eunuch Chen Ju who was waiting beside him: "This Li Xin really doesn't look like a sixteen or seventeen-year-old young man at all. β
Due to the problem of the level of the previous life, the workplace methods that Li Xin is proficient in are actually not very clever in the officialdom, for example, he used this dragon tattooing method to curry favor with the Chengde Son of Heaven this time, but in the eyes of the Chengde Prince, this method is also a low-level method that can be used at the level of the county order.
Chen Ju also smiled: "Your Majesty, Captain Li is still young after all, although this clairvoyant mirror is not pleasing, but after all, he has a piece of his heart." β
Chengde Tianzi shook his head: "It's not that I don't have a mind, I always feel that the way he does things and speaks doesn't look like a young man, especially this time, it looks like some poor county orders are a means to go through the door." β
Chen Ju put the carved dragon clairvoyant mirror into the box, lowered his head and smiled: "You don't like this, the old slave will put it away for you." β
Chengde Tianzi smiled: "It's not that I don't like it, although this thing is cheesy, but after watching it for a long time, it is indeed a lot more majestic, you go find a shelf and put it in my study." β
Chen Ju nodded respectfully: "The old slave obeys the order." β
ββββββββββ
Li Xin on the other side, after leaving the palace, returned to Datongfang while thinking.
Looking at the current situation, Ji Man, the son of Chengde, most likely really wanted to use himself to deal with Pingnanhou in Southern Xinjiang, otherwise he would not be in such a hurry to promote himself.
But no matter what, this is a good thing for Li Xin, which means that Li Xin, who was trembling in the capital half a year ago, finally has some foothold in the capital.
Captain Yulinβββ
The military attache of the sixth grade!
As long as you go up two levels, you can achieve the position of General Yulin Zhonglang, although General Yulin Zhonglang is only a five-grade official, but in fact, the authority is extremely heavy, and if you do this position, you can have your own voice when you speak in the capital.
Of course, the premise is that you can't be a Zhonglang general like Ye Lan who is overtaken by the left and right generals.
As it is now, it is really possible for Li Xin to sit in the position of the general of Yulin Weizhonglang, who is not qualified for the position of a general.
If you can fully control Yulinwei, then whether it is Li Xin or Wei Wangfu, their influence in the capital will be greatly enhanced.
When he was thinking about this, Li Xin had already walked out of the imperial city, outside the imperial city was Yongle Fang, the four princes in white clothes were sitting in a willow shade at the entrance of Yongle Fang drinking tea, Li Xin glanced at him and walked over slowly.
The Seven Princes have been waiting for Li Xin here for a long time.
Today is the day of the Ministry of Industry's invitation, and it stands to reason that the Seventh Prince should go to meet the Son of Heaven in person, but in order to prevent criticism from the outside world, His Royal Highness the King of Wei did not go in with them, but waited for Li Xin to come back in Yongle Fang.
Seeing Li Xin coming over, the Seventh Prince smiled and said, "I saw Zhao Gong running out in a hurry just now, I thought something was going on inside, but fortunately, Zhao Gong said that his father, Emperor Long Yan Dayue, even if this matter was not messed up." β
As a prince, the official came to an end as soon as he was born, and there was no way to go further, so the seventh prince didn't care about the credit of adding an official to the knight, what he cared about was the holy family of the Son of Heaven, not to mention anything else, only the four words Longyan Dayue, His Royal Highness the King of Wei felt that it was worth it.
Li Xin also sat down under the shade of the willows, and after he took a deep look at the Seven Princes, he said
"Your Highness, Your Majesty just said that when Your Highness has steamed out a hundred jars of spirits, you will let me take Yu Linwei and escort these wines to General Ye Ming in the North."
The Seventh Prince under the shade of the willows stood up, his brows furrowed slightly.
"This matter, the military department is responsible for transportation on weekdays, how could it fall on your head?"
Li Xin blinked his eyes and smiled: "Maybe it's ...... Afraid that the military department of the four princes will send away the toast? β
