It stands to reason that when the eldest prince will go to Gyeonggi Province is still a very distant matter, he finished being a prisoner in the Tiger Bone Pagoda for half a year, according to his own meaning to travel the world of Daning, he is the one who walks for two years, and he is also the one who walks for ten years, and to be honest, he can't all travel in the world of Daning in his life.

The old dean has been thinking about another thing since he left from the wild maozhai, Han Zhaozhi went to the grassland, Ye Liuyun went to the northern Xinjiang, everything is ready for the Anxi Protectorate, Han Zhaozhi can directly control the overall situation in the past, but Ye Liuyun went to the north in such a hurry, this is definitely not His Majesty's style of doing things, people in the court are saying that they were implicated because Ye Liuyun and Shen Leng were too close, but the old dean never thought so, His Majesty would implicate Ye Liuyun because of Shen Leng?

Your Majesty can't be confused, can't be ridiculous.

What's more, even if you want to build the Northern Capital Protectorate, it shouldn't be Ye Liuyun's go, there are suitable candidates in Northern Xinjiang...... Isn't Ye Yunsan, who knows more about northern Xinjiang, suitable?

Besides, His Majesty's desire to build the Anbei Protectorate is by no means today's thought of doing it today, when Ye Yunsan was transferred to the Northern Xinjiang to be responsible for the logistics of the Northern Expedition's army, the authority is so great that he can control the Dao, isn't this paving the way for the affairs of the Anbei Protectorate?

If it is said that so many roads were paved for Ye Yunsan and finally given to Ye Liuyun, wouldn't it be too much.

Everyone said that the old dean didn't worry about the government, but in fact, if the old dean really didn't worry about the government and only took care of the affairs of the college, and even later people said that the old dean was purely relying on His Majesty's attention and didn't even care about the college, so why did the old dean answer everything His Majesty asked?

The person who said that the old dean was incapable and only relied on His Majesty's relationship was really incapable and had no vision.

The old dean needs to keep thinking all the time, he knows that His Majesty treats him as a spiritual support, but this spiritual support is really so good?

As soon as he got into the carriage, the carriage stopped again before he could walk a few steps away, and before the old dean could open the curtain to see what was going on, the curtain was picked up, and a person with a slight smell of sweat on his body came in directly.

The old dean couldn't help but sigh when he saw it: "How long haven't you been home?" ”

Lai Cheng, who got into the car, curled himself up in a ball to find a safe and comfortable position, he didn't seem to know how long he hadn't changed his clothes, he had been crawling around in the cabinet house for a few days, and he didn't take a shower, and there were still people smoking pipes in the house, so the smell was naturally not good.

The people would think how glamorous the Cabinet Scholars were, and if they were to go to the Cabinet and smell the smell in the Cabinet, they might be surprised and think that everything was an illusion.

"It's been more than ten days."

Lai Cheng shrunk there and squinted his eyes and replied.

The old dean said, "Is there something wrong with stopping my car?" ”

"It's okay, just rub a car home, if I go back to Weiyang Palace, I will have to delay for a while, I just sent a fold to His Majesty, and I know that Mr. is just leaving, so I catch up."

The old dean sighed: "The first assistant scholar of the dignified cabinet, look at your clothes, the smell of your body. ”

Lai Cheng sighed: "There was a flood on Nanping Road. ”

He glanced at the old dean: "For this matter, the cabinet is fighting, Your Majesty asked the cabinet to discuss a result as soon as possible, but no one on both sides can convince anyone, Nanping Dao was originally to seek Li, this is only a few years old, in fact, it is not good to say how much to return to Shun, Qiu Liren has some ruthlessness in his bones, if it is not for the general Zhuang Yong to suppress it, the people who seek to establish will make trouble every three or five times, even if General Zhuang Yong is there, those remote places still make some noise from time to time, so a large part of the cabinet said that it should not be saved, the relief of the imperial court, From Chang'an to Nanping Road, there will be more than half of the loss, if you transfer grain relief from Pingyue Road and other places, this matter can't be opened, at the beginning, these begging cubs did evil in Pingyue Road, killed people and set fires, how could the hatred be solved, let Pingyue Road transfer food...... I'm afraid that even if there is a court dispatch, it will be deliberately delayed. ”

Old Dean: "Just because of this, you are worried about your beard?" ”

"That's one of them."

Lai Chengdao: "Second, Your Majesty intends to let the cabinet discuss the matter of the sword soldiers moving eastward. ”

The old dean's face changed: "Why? ”

Lai Chengdao drew a box with two hands: "It turns out that Daning is so big, and the soldiers of the four frontiers are in the east, west, north and south, but now Daning has expanded a huge territory to the east, west, north and south, why did Your Majesty build the Anxi Protectorate, the Annan Metropolitan Protectorate, and the Anbei Metropolitan Protectorate?" He enlarged the box of the comparison, the tiger and wolf of the four frontiers were in the original position, and the capital protection mansion was a large square frame framework, the original tiger and wolf of the four frontiers were the first line of defense, and now the capital protection mansion of the four frontiers is the first line of defense. ”

The old dean understood: "So the problem now is that only Eastern Xinjiang does not have a capital protectorate. ”

"Yes."

Lai Cheng looked at the old dean: "It stands to reason that if you want to set up the Anton Metropolitan Protectorate, the Bohai Road side is the most suitable, General Yan Kaisong guards the Bohai Road, and it is no problem to take him as the first Protector of the Anton Metropolitan Protectorate, the problem is that Your Majesty just doesn't plan to set up this Anton Metropolitan Protectorate, and is about to move troops against the Sang Kingdom, everyone guesses whether it will be established in the Anton Metropolitan Protectorate in the Sang Kingdom after destroying the Sang Kingdom in the future, but this is not appropriate." ”

Lai Chengdao: "If it is placed in Bohai Road, it is connected to Daning, and it is not considered an enclave, but if it is placed in Sangguo, it will be difficult to support if there is anything." ”

The old dean shook his head: "The Annan Metropolitan Protectorate is farther away." ”

Lai Cheng: "Sir, it's not that you don't understand what I mean. ”

Of course, the old dean understood, so he sighed: "Your Majesty wants to transfer Meng Changan away." ”

"Yes."

Lai Cheng was a little helpless: "Although Your Majesty didn't say it explicitly, I guess it's probably so, Your Majesty wants to put Meng Changan down in Bohai Dao or Sang Kingdom, if that's the case......"

The words he said later were not spoken, but the old dean would also understand that this was the reason why Lai Cheng would say something inappropriate.

In this way, Meng Changan will be stationed overseas for a long time, and this matter seems to be nothing special, but thinking of the fact that His Majesty still has the intention of suppressing Shen Leng for a while, it can be roughly inferred that His Majesty wants to put Meng Changan further away just in case.

The old dean looked at Lai Cheng: "I just chatted with Your Majesty, and Your Majesty said that you want the eldest prince to settle in Gyeonggi Province in the future." ”

Lai Cheng was taken aback: "Gyeonggi Province?!" ”

His eyes flickered, and his gaze drifted a little: "What is Your Majesty's plan for this arrangement?" ”

The old dean shrugged his shoulders: "I want to know too." ”

Putting the eldest prince in Gyeonggi Province, isn't the threat much more than Shen Leng?

The two of them glanced at each other, and they both felt that something was wrong with His Majesty, and even Lai Cheng had to wonder if His Majesty was a little confused?

At this moment, the two of them saw a carriage stop outside the Imperial Garden, and a man wearing the official uniform of a first-class official got out of the carriage, and after tidying up his official uniform, he entered the Imperial Garden, apparently to meet His Majesty.

"Dou Huainan?"

The old dean looked at Lai Cheng: "Your Majesty asked Dou Huainan to come back, does the cabinet know?" ”

"I don't know."

Lai Cheng's face was a little difficult to look at: "Your Majesty has never mentioned it." ”

All the provincial governments are the second grade, but the provincial government of Gyeonggi Province is the first product, Dou Huainan was originally a marching counselor in Shen Leng's army, and the speed of promotion over the years is faster than Shen Leng, first to the cabinet to do things, and then released to become the governor, less than two years to be transferred to the province, then two years to the province, and then two or three years to the Gyeonggi Province, it is not an exaggeration to say that the progress is high.

"Your Majesty summoned Dou Huainan at this time."

The corners of the old dean's mouth raised: "It's a little interesting." ”

Lai Cheng was anxious: "Sir, what do you mean?" ”

"Let's see."

The old dean looked out of the car window: "Your Majesty may be pulling out the nails of Gyeonggi Province, I guess Your Majesty even deceived me, just now Your Majesty said that the eldest prince will return to Gyeonggi Province at least a few years later, I don't think it is far away." ”

Wanton Mao Zhai.

Dou Huainan walked into the door quickly, and then leaned down and fell to the ground: "Minister Dou Huainan, meet Your Majesty, long live Your Majesty, long live Long live." ”

"Get up."

The emperor pointed to a chair not far away: "Sit down and talk." ”

Dou Huainan then sat down on the chair with his buttocks, and the emperor said while flipping through the folds that Lai Cheng had just sent: "I asked you to go back to Chang'an in a hurry, and everything in Gyeonggi Province has been arranged?" ”

"After the minister received the will, he made arrangements tightly, and most of the arrangements were made."

"That's good."

The emperor said, "Dou Huainan, do you know why I summoned you back?" ”

"I don't know."

The emperor put down the red pen in his hand: "I lowered Shen Leng's knighthood in the front battle, and also demoted his military position, the Manchu Dynasty was civil and military, and no one even raised objections to the Imperial History Terrace, but you played it three times, I want to ask you, you speak for Shen Leng, is it out of personal feelings." ”

Everyone knows that Dou Huainan was picked up by Shen Leng, although he was higher than Shen Leng in terms of official positions later, but if there was no recommendation from Shen Leng, how could he have his status today.

Dou Huainan lowered his head: "Twenty-eight." ”

"Huh?"

The emperor glanced at Dou Huainan: "Twenty-eight? ”

"Yes."

Dou Huainan said: "Two points are the heart of national affairs, and eight points are thoughts of personal relations." ”

The emperor frowned: "You're not afraid that I will kill you?" ”

"I'm not afraid."

Dou Huainan said: "The first time the minister went to the book, I thought that His Majesty would probably punish the minister, after the second time I went to the book, the minister waited for the will of demotion, and after the third time I went to the book, the minister felt that maybe the minister's career ended here, but the minister asked himself carefully, he was really not afraid, the minister was afraid of many things, but he was not afraid of being worthy of conscience. ”

The emperor frowned and asked, "What if I kill you?" ”

Dou Huainan: "If the minister is demoted because he speaks for Shen Leng, the minister feels that it is understandable, after all, His Majesty also has times when he is confused, if the minister loses his life because of this matter, it is even more understandable, Daning has not yet come out of the faint king, it is inevitable that there will be one." ”

"Dou Huainan!"

The emperor shouted.

Dou Huainan slowly got up and knelt on the ground: "The minister is here." ”

The emperor frowned: "Do you really think that I dare not touch you?" ”

"Your Majesty just asked the ministers if they have all been arranged, and when the ministers came, they were indeed almost arranged, and everything after their death was arranged."

Dou Huainan raised his head: "Minister, I have been an official for many years, and I have saved a total of seven hundred and twenty-six taels of silver, all of which have been donated to the Gyeonggi Provincial Provincial Academy, a house, and before I came, I also gave it to the Gyeonggi Provincial Fujun Division to settle the disabled and widowed. ”

After saying these words, Dou Huainan looked at the emperor: "If Your Majesty asks the minister again if he is afraid, the minister is still not afraid." ”

The emperor looked at Dou Huainan's eyes narrowed slightly, and even the substitute boat who was waiting on the side trembled with fright.
