Chapter 629 - A Reason Is Needed
Xiling three states, four cities and six counties, fiefdom of 6,000 miles.
Nor is the appointment and transfer of officials something that can be done in a day.
Ordered someone to send the files of the officials of various ministries, Chu Chen stayed in the room and looked at it carefully for two days, these days he followed Zixi to deal with the government affairs, these things are nothing to him.
Not all of the records in the dossier are true, and many officials with relevant connections will exaggerate and falsely report the achievements of their subordinates, while they will spare no effort to belittle those who do not want to get close......
Chu Chen doesn't just look at the surface.
The original courtiers of Xiling are destined to have many people who will no longer be officials, and now there are few people who need to use them, and he only needs to select some available officials who can do practical things for the people, rather than those who only think about corruption and bribery, and keep warm.
Two days later, the eldest princess Chu Ning asked to see her.
Chu Chen saw her alone in the study.
"You decided to conquer Nanling?"
Chu Chen nodded, "It's already decided, starting with Nanling." ”
"Have you read the secret letter that Your Majesty gave you?" Chu Ning stood in front of the desk and said indifferently, "This palace will go with you." ”
Chu Chen was silent for a moment, then shook his head, "No." ”
Chu Ning said lightly: "This is Your Majesty's will. ”
"Auntie, I understand what Your Majesty means." Chu Chen sat in the chair, his tone was light, but there was a touch of tenderness in his eyes, "She supports me in revenge, but she is worried that my emotions will be out of control...... But I won't. ”
He understood Zixi's intentions.
She has obviously received the news of her father's death, beware that he can't stand the blow, agree to his revenge, but worry that he will lose control of his emotions and make wrong decisions, and even more hope that he can protect herself.
Chu Chen knew everything, and he was very moved by Zixi's thoughtfulness.
But he won't get out of control.
"I won't get out of control, and my aunt doesn't need to follow me." Chu Chen raised his eyes and looked at Chu Ning with a straight face, "Zixi is worried that I am out of control because of my father's death, but ......"
Chu Ning frowned.
"Lingguo is now in the process of employing people, and we can't waste the generals who lead the troops." Chu Chen said, "I hope that my aunt can return to the Ling Kingdom, even if she goes to the battlefield, she will lead the troops independently, not be my supervisor." ”
Chu Ning was silent for a moment: "This palace needs a reason. ”
will not get out of control, these four words obviously do not convince her.
She came at the behest of the empress, going to the battlefield to fight is a matter of negligence, it is a matter of the survival of the soldiers, Chu Ning will not treat herself as a mouthpiece between the two children.
Reason?
Chu Chen's eyes were silent for a moment, and he picked up his pen and wrote a letter, "Auntie, give this letter to Your Majesty, she will understand." ”
Chu Ning's eyebrows moved slightly, looking at the words Chu Chen wrote on the paper, his brows furrowed, and a touch of deep thought crossed his eyes, "This is true?" ”
Chu Chen didn't speak, after writing the letter, it was dried and sealed, and then he said lightly, "Don't leave ten." ”
"Then why are you ......?"
"I just happened to have this opportunity, how can this king let it go?" Chu Chen smiled, but his smile was cold and ruthless, "Besides, the matter of my father, the Nanling and Beiling rooms have the most opportunity and the most motivation to do tricks, and this king doesn't mind taking this opportunity to serve them in a pot, saving Zixi from waiting." ”
Chu Ning stared at his expression, and after a moment, he said lightly, "It's okay not to let this palace follow, Her Majesty the Empress can agree." ”
Chu Chen said, "Auntie, as long as she goes back with the letter, Zixi will agree." ”
Chu Ning stared at the letter, a deep emotion flashed in his eyes, and he didn't speak for a long time.
