Cao Huachun's eyelids suddenly raised, he didn't expect Qin Shuhuai to be so calm.

The world belongs to him in one thought? This is a great rebellion!

However, his eyes turned to Qin Shuhuai's calm and resolute face, and Cao Huachun had to admit in his heart that people were qualified to say this, and they were telling the truth.

Isn't this world already in his hands?

Qin Shuhuai smiled slightly, then changed his tone and said, "However, Qin has no interest in being an emperor. Chongzhen is a good emperor, diligent in government, only willing to sleep for two or three hours a day, benevolent, blame all problems on himself, even the people rebel feel that it is his own fault, so he frequently issues edicts against himself, and refuses to kill the rebels. When he became the emperor, Qin felt good. Moreover, if he continues to be the emperor, he can die a lot less. ”

Cao Huachun gently rotated a jade wrench on his thumb, thoughtful and silent.

Qin Shuhuai didn't want to say a word more when he said this, and stayed silent with him.

The room was so quiet that the insects outside the window were very noisy.

After a while, Cao Huachun said, "Master Hou, is it really a master from the Ghost Valley?"

Qin Shuhuai smiled, "Heavy?"

"Hehe, too. Cao Huachun laughed at himself, "Our family is really old! Master Hou, the emperor is a good emperor, and the emperor really treats you as your brother. Throughout the ages, the friendship between the emperor and the prince and the marquis, I am afraid that there is no one before and no one after him, if the Ming Dynasty is really prosperous, the prosperous era will really rise again, this matter will be recorded in history, brilliant through the ages!"

Cao Huachun knew very well in his heart that Qin Shuhuai's power was unstoppable. Although Qin Shuhuai told him that he would continue to protect Chongzhen as emperor, he did not dare to believe it all. However, he had no choice but to persuade Qin Shuhuai in this way at the end.

Qin Shuhuai saw Cao Huachun say this, so he answered, "Cao Dugong, do you know who is the biggest obstacle to the regeneration of the Ming Dynasty and the resurgence of prosperity?"

Cao Huachun knew the answer, but pretended not to know, and asked, "What does Master Hou think?"

Qin Shuhuai said, "Governor Cao asked knowingly. Is this how Cao Governor pretended to be deaf and dumb when he was fair? Humanity values peace, but is the way of 'peace' really to cover up one's ears and steal the bell, to pretend to be ignorant, and to whitewash the peace?"

Cao Huachun was questioned by Qin Shuhuai again and again, his face became stiff and speechless.

Because Qin Shuhuai asked correctly. Since he took charge of Dongchang, he knew that the Donglin Party had brought disaster to the country and the people, but for various considerations, he had been avoiding the important and trivial, and he did not dare to tell Chongzhen the truth.

Why? He was afraid that Chongzhen would be young and vigorous, and that he would have a large-scale frontal conflict with Donglin, and that unpredictable things would happen! Therefore, while collecting evidence of Donglin's crimes, he did not dare to tell Chongzhen, and at most he could only remind him sideways.

He originally looked forward to one day, when Chongzhen's power was stable, and then present him with Donglin's criminal evidence one by one, and wipe out these hypocrites who have brought disaster to the country and the people. However, Chongzhen has only been on the throne for more than two years, and his power is not stable, but great changes have taken place one after another, and the Donglin Party has not only not declined, but its position has been consolidated day by day, which makes him even more afraid to tell the truth to Chongzhen, and he does not dare to rashly attack Donglin.

So, he really became the one who pretended to be deaf and dumb and whitewashed the peace!

What they say is not wrong at all!

Cao Huachun thought of this, and sighed, "What Master Hou taught is this." Our ...... It is indeed a person who hides his ears and steals the bell! The Tartars outside the Guanguan and the rogue in the Guankou are nothing but skin erosion, and the Donglin Party is the trouble of my Daming's henchmen! It is these hypocrites who are knocking on the bones and sucking the marrow of the Daming Dynasty and asking for the emperor's life, but our family is still pretending to be deaf and dumb, pretending not to know. Hehe, it's ridiculous, it's ridiculous!"

Qin Shuhuai knew that he was already halfway there.

He also said, "Cao Dugong, it is the responsibility of the factory guard to supervise the hundred officials, and to put it mildly, the factory guard has been derelict in this matter." If there is a big chaos today, and the factory guards need to make up for their mistakes and make up for their mistakes, how can the governor bear to return to his hometown at this time?"

Cao Huachun's eyes revealed unwillingness, but he had no choice at all. Now that he is seriously injured and old and decrepit, he has no energy and physical strength to deal with the huge official affairs of the East Factory, so he can only hand over the East Factory.

With a wry smile, he said, "Marquis Qin is kind, our family knows." It's a pity that our family's current body is no longer good. Those official documents, I get dizzy after only reading them for a moment, cough all night at night, and drowsy during the day, I really can't serve the emperor. ”

Qin Shuhuai looked at Cao Huachun with a tired face, and he felt a little unbearable in his heart. If he had gone to save Cao Huachun, then Cao Huachun would not have been seriously injured. However, he did not regret it, first, he did not make Cao Huachun seriously injured, and second, if he did not do this, how could he have the opportunity to get involved in Dongchang? Besides, if the situation at that time had changed, Cao Huachun would not have saved himself.

He gathered his thoughts and continued this very important conversation.

said, "Cao Dugong, if you insist on returning to your hometown, can you think of who will take over the East Factory?"

Cao Huachun's expression condensed slightly, because Qin Shuhuai said what was on his mind.

Among the eunuchs, the only people who are most qualified to take over the post of governor of Dongchang are Wang Chengen and Wang Dehua.

Although Wang Chengen is loyal to Chongzhen, but the act is extreme, the means are ruthless, if he is in charge of the East Factory, it is bound to be desperate to eliminate all the people who pose a threat to Chongzhen, when the time comes, under the bloody storm, the Donglin Party is very likely to do the dog jumping over the wall, if the governors of various places who hold great power have become self-reliant, then the Ming Dynasty will really fall apart.

And Wang Dehua has always been a person who sees the wind and steers the rudder. Now that the Donglin Party is in power, he has an excellent relationship with Donglin, and if he takes charge of Dongchang, Donglin may be even more unscrupulous.

In addition to these two people, the rest of the eunuchs, big and small, are too short of prestige and qualifications, and their ability is not enough, and they are not enough to lead the East Factory at all.

Qin Shuhuai saw that Cao Huachun was silent, so he continued, "Cao Dugong, if you want to level Donglin, you can't do without the factory guard, you know this. Now Luo Yangxing adheres to the golden mean, and he is kind to everyone, and most of the Jinyiwei everywhere are in collusion with the local governor, so it is difficult to rely on Jinyiwei. Now the only one who can help the emperor secretly lay out and decisively carry out thunderbolt measures when necessary is Dongchang. If it is not a person entrusted by the East Factory, it will be difficult for me to scrape the bones and heal the wounds. Did the Governor want me to take the soldiers and pick up the black yarn of those Donglin Governors from province to city?"

Cao Huachun bowed slightly, and then said to Qin Shuhuai, "What Hou Ye said is extremely true. I don't know, what advice does Master Hou have?"
