Ye Liuyun suddenly thought of a sentence, the greatest trust in this world can't stop a son of heaven and a courtier, maybe the best ending for a person like Leng Zi is to retreat at the most appropriate time like Lai Cheng and Dou Huainan, thinking of this, my heart is a little panicked, and a mature and wise person like him will also be panicked, because he can't let go, so he can't think about it.

The old dean saw the expression on Ye Liuyun's face, it was an indescribable pain.

"Look, the biggest disadvantage of people is that their emotions are too complicated."

The old dean sighed: "If it weren't for Leng Zi and Meng Changan, you wouldn't have such an expression if you were any other person." ”

Ye Liuyun sighed: "If it weren't for Leng Zi and Meng Changan, Mr. would not have come to me if he were any other person." ”

The old dean has a saying that is very right, His Majesty knows how to make good use of people.

Everyone knows how high the status of the old dean is in the court, and it is obvious to all, but if you want to ask the old dean what important positions he has held over the years, it seems that people will become confused, what important positions has the old dean held?

The dean of the academy is naturally an important position, but it is not a position that can directly influence the situation of the court.

His Majesty trusts the old dean so much, and he only lets the old dean go there when the cabinet is excessive, and the old dean is really just sitting in the town, and he doesn't participate much in the cabinet every day to solve the affairs of the court, he is like a lazy man, and he is indeed a lazy man.

This is knowing people and making good use of them, no matter how much they trust, they will not put the old dean in an inappropriate position, and the old dean will never become a person like Mu Zhaotong.

"At that time, maybe Han Zhaozhi and I didn't have much ability."

Ye Liuyun smiled bitterly: "We are also the ones who should retreat." ”

The old dean snorted: "Yes, you are also the ones who should be retreated." ”

After this sentence, the two of them were silent, the words have actually been said so far, and they can't influence the future, so what can they say again?

"Fortunately, it is Your Majesty, fortunately, it is the second prince."

After a long time, the old dean sighed.

Ye Liuyun felt that this sentence was very reasonable, fortunately, it was Your Majesty, Your Majesty trusted Shen Leng, people like Lai Cheng and Dou Huainan would retire with glory, and Shen Leng could naturally retire with glory, and the old dean was never worried about His Majesty or the second prince, what he was worried about was the person who would be in power in the future, those two people who still had no indication of who they were.

The general of the forbidden army and the first assistant scholar of the cabinet, these two talents are the key.

His Majesty wants to give the second prince a chance to choose by himself, if these two people are personally cultivated or befriended by the second prince from this moment on, then the future will naturally be stronger and more reliable, but because of this, there will be inevitable conflicts at that time, and the new cronies who want to seize real power will have to take power from the hands of the old minister.

"Leave it to trust."

The old dean looked at Ye Liuyun.

At the end of the day, it seems that this is the only way.

Leave it to trust.

At the same time, Western Xinjiang.

Han Zhaozhi sat opposite the second prince and watched him read, his eyes flickered, and at this time, the second prince looked up at Han Zhaozhi: "It's been a day, Lord Han always wants to say and stop, what do you want to say?" ”

Han Zhaozhi smiled: "I thought about some messy things. ”

The second prince put the book down: "Then let's talk about it, I want to know what interesting things Lord Han has thought." ”

Han Zhaozhi shook his head and said, "It's not necessarily interesting. ”

He looked at the second prince and asked seriously, "The minister said something that shouldn't be said...... After His Royal Highness goes back, he will enter the East Palace, it's time to look for candidates for the East Palace, does His Highness have someone to choose? ”

"Yes."

The second prince replied quickly: "At this time, if I say that I don't know if I am not sure whether my father will make me the crown prince, it seems to be a little hypocritical, in fact, the candidates for the East Palace are the candidates for many important positions in the court in the future, right?" ”

Han Zhaozhi nodded: "Yes." ”

The second prince asked: "Then in the opinion of Lord Han, is it difficult to choose people?" ”

"Difficult."

Han Zhaozhi said: "His Royal Highness chooses people, not the people in front of him, but the people who can become pillars in the court in the future, and the most difficult thing in the world is also people, because people are too complicated, so it is difficult." ”

"It's not hard."

The second prince smiled: "In my opinion, it is not difficult. ”

Han Zhaozhi became interested: "Why? ”

The second prince said: "I've actually been thinking about it these days, the people that my father should choose have been selected, and what I want to choose is nothing more than two people, one is the future general of the forbidden army and the other is the future cabinet chief assistant scholar, my father has not decided on a candidate until now, I should want to leave this selection to me to do it myself." ”

Han Zhaozhi's eyes lit up, it is really admirable to think of these at the age of the second prince, he is only fourteen years old after the New Year, fourteen years old, the age when he is placed in the homes of ordinary people, and he will occasionally play the age of a hero with a bamboo cane, and the age of worrying about whether he can memorize an article, but the second prince is already thinking about national affairs and considering important ministers of the court.

The two candidates mentioned by the second prince directly point to the core of the stability of the future court and the stability of the world, and they can see it very thoroughly.

"Your Highness has already been chosen?"

Han Zhaozhi asked.

The second prince smiled: "I said that it is not difficult because I am at the age where I can see through a person, even if I learn more and understand not too little, but I am still too young, but I am not worried, because I know how to do it, the candidate for the general of the forbidden army, the candidate for the first assistant scholar of the cabinet, is really the top priority, my father wants me to do these things myself and also knows how I will choose, and the East Palace chooses people, I only ask one person." ”

"Who?"

"Dear Master."

The second prince said: "Whoever the master says is available, then it will naturally be available, and whoever the master says is credible, then it will naturally be credible, so I said that it is not difficult, and the difficult things will be left to the master." ”

Han Zhaozhi was stunned for a moment and didn't know what to say, with his experience in the city at this moment, he must be far superior to the second prince, because of this, he was very sure that the second prince's words were not false.

"Then what did Shen Leng say?"

The second prince pouted: "Where do you dare to ask, let's talk about it after returning to Chang'an." ”

Chang'an City, Weiyang Palace.

The emperor and Concubine Zhen returned to the palace, ate some supper, a bowl of rice balls per person, and people who care about each other are very satisfied even if they just eat a bowl of rice balls, of course, the emperor doesn't care much in his heart, and those who ask less will be easy to satisfy, simple, grow old with his beloved Concubine Zhen, and then be an emperor.

These two simple things are really terrifying.

"Isn't it time for Changye to come back?"

Concubine Zhen asked.

The emperor said vaguely while eating: "Don't be so anxious, let him follow Shen Leng to learn more in Western Xinjiang, what he can learn on the battlefield is not only to arrange troops, but more importantly, to judge the situation, the battle situation is changing rapidly, and those who can grasp the battle situation can naturally grasp the situation, he follows the right person, and he is studious, so he will inevitably grow a lot after coming back." ”

Concubine Zhen smiled and said, "Changye is indeed studious, and he is indeed the right person to follow." ”

The emperor took a sip of soup from the bowl, and his heart was happy, most of the time belonged to him and Concubine Zhen and nothing else, so Huanchang, of course Huanchang, Concubine Zhen mentioned at this time that the second prince Changye was distressed by the child, and he was only fourteen years old and experienced life and death on the battlefield, which seemed a little cruel to him, but Concubine Zhen knew that His Majesty's arrangement must be right.

It's too late to learn how to be a prince at the age of fourteen, so it's necessary to teach him in the fastest and most useful way, let him go to Liuyunhui, and experience it is not the affairs of the rivers and lakes, but the folk affairs, and the second prince is not in contact with vendettas, not fights, but the business of Liuyunhui, let him go to Xijiang, and experience not only the war, but the overall situation, and learn the overall situation from talking about Kyushu and Shen Leng and Tang Baobao, which is much more useful for him than reading ten books and hundreds of books.

"Speaking of Changye."

The emperor put down the dishes and chopsticks: "After he comes back, you must not be so arrogant and accustomed to him." ”

Concubine Zhen smiled: "From Your Majesty to the courtiers, they are all people who can't get used to Changye at this moment, but there has to be someone who is used to him, otherwise I'm not afraid that he will think it's too harsh?" ”

The emperor smiled: "You are always reasonable. ”

He looked at the empty bowl: "Yesterday, I scolded him again, called him in and scolded him, and then played a few games of chess, and won him more than 100 taels of silver. ”

Concubine Zhen snorted and laughed: "Why has the general been asking for resignation, he is not old." ”

"Of course he's not old."

The emperor snorted: "Do you think his resignation is really a resignation?" He is urging me to determine a candidate as soon as possible, and I have not yet determined who will take over as the general of the forbidden army, so can he resign? He was in a hurry, and he wanted to bring the person I wanted him to bring as soon as possible. ”

Concubine Zhen asked curiously: "Your Majesty does anyone have a candidate?" ”

The emperor said with a smile: "I don't decide on the candidate, I want Chang Ye to choose by himself, although he is only fourteen years old, he has reached the age when he should think about these things, I let him choose people by himself, and the chosen person will be more loyal to him and more dedicated, I don't want such a person to be elected to be grateful to me, this kindness should be left to Chang Ye to do." ”

"What if he doesn't choose the right one?"

Concubine Zhen was a little worried: "Although Changye is excellent everywhere, he is young but already has all kinds of abilities, after all, he is still not deeply involved in the world, if he chooses the wrong one, it may be trouble in the future." ”

The emperor looked at Concubine Zhen with a smile: "You didn't ask about these things in the past, and you didn't think about them, and you never mentioned anything about the government to me. ”

Concubine Zhen said: "The harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, but ...... That's Changye, I always felt like he was still a child. ”

The Emperor smiled and asked, "You still don't understand why I let him get in touch with these things early, and why such an important candidate is left to him to choose?" ”

Concubine Zhen shook her head: "I don't understand." ”

"Stupid."

The emperor raised his hand and rubbed Concubine Zhen's forehead, just like the beginning of their love.

"I let him choose, who will he ask?"

Concubine Zhen thought about it, and then thought about it.

But she wasn't sure, so she asked tentatively: "Will he ask Shen Leng?" ”

The emperor smiled and said, "Who else can I ask." ”

The emperor got up and walked to the window and said with a slight meaning: "I trust Shen Leng, that's not enough, that's the current thing, I let Changye trust Shen Leng, that's the future, who else can I be the most relieved person?" ”
