Previous Chapter: Chapter 407 Thinking Far AwayNext Chapter: Chapter 419 The Distinction between Monarchs and Ministers

Jiang Bai heard that Qin Wan was invited, guessed that it was a matter of Liangzhou, and thought about it properly in all aspects, just waiting for Qin Wan to ask, there was a corresponding, excellent answer, who expected Qin Wan to be very simple, the first sentence was: "I 'want' to transfer Zezhi to Liangzhou, Jiang Xianggong has been quite familiar with the Western Regions for many years, and he is a trusted minister of the first emperor, I don't know who is the county guard of Zhangye, which can temporarily calm down the movements of the Hu people in Liangzhou?" ”

Recommending talents to the emperor is the obligation of the emperor, but there are too few people who can really do it like Qi Huangyang to "do not avoid relatives internally, and do not avoid enemies externally". Read the full text of the latest chapter. The update is so fast. What's more, even if you do it, the emperor may not believe it, maybe he thinks there is something between the two of you. Over time, on the contrary, the Zai is very taboo about promoting talents, and even the court has a common understanding - as long as you are not the kind of "power minister" who has power over the world and does not care about any gossip, you can't openly break the rules of officialdom, and if you want to 'insert' people, it is better to come secretly.

Because of this, Qin Wan's question was too direct, Jiang Bai was stunned for a moment, and then thought deeply.

Although the Jiang family is a duke and a prime minister, cooked in flames and oil, and fresh 'flowers' are brocade, but the next two generations of children and grandchildren have not stood out. It's okay to be a rich idler, I'm afraid that my family business is too big and coveted, but I don't have enough ability to even keep this foundation. In this case, Qi Run's ability to be 'colorful', as long as there are no accidents, he will definitely become a great weapon, and the existence of the 'daughter' and son-in-law of the Jiang family, who has no foundation, is particularly important.

Although Jiang Bai is the prime minister, his promotion path is different from that of normal civil officials, and although he has been in the Western Regions for many years, although he has some useful people in his hands, he does not have such a large and dense network of civil officials as Xu Mi and Zhang Rong who have been in the center for a long time. This is also the reason why although he is the second minister, he often feels lonely in his work, and has to maintain close contact with his brother and huddle together for warmth - of course, feelings are one thing, and the old mother's survival is also an extremely important weight, and no one says that their relationship is not good. But for people like them who have been the head of the family for decades, no matter how deep the relationship is, the relationship maintained by this is also very fragile and slightly unreliable, and they don't know when they will be recuted. Only the same blood, deep feelings, and common interests are the guarantee of the intimacy between the two brothers of the Jiang family.

If Qin Wan was half-concealed, Jiang Bai might still pretend to be confused, but it would be difficult for him not to accept such a big olive branch - Qin Wan's mention was not only a prelude to vigorously cultivating Qi Run, but also a good sale for the Jiang family. (hua.advertisement)

Zhangye County was once the land of the Xiongnu Kun Evil King, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Yuan Ding six years to place Zhangye County, take the meaning of "Zhangguo Arm Fold, in order to pass through the Western Regions".

Although it is not a county in Liangzhou, it is a prosperous city in the northwest pole, which is not only valued by Great Xia, but also coveted by the Hu people, who want to recapture Zhangye County. Not only for historical reasons, but more importantly, because Zhangye County has a developed economy and frequent trade, and its strategic position is very important both politically and economically.

It is precisely because of the importance of Zhangye County, so ah, Zhangye County Shou is a position where you can do a good job and rise to the top, and if you don't do a good job, you will have no hope for a career, even if it is a 'mix', as long as you are 'mixed' steadily, it is often no problem to take a step up. Unlike other places, you have been a county guard here for three years, and you don't know where the future will be, and you have been leveling for three years and three years, and it is not for nothing that you are still in the county guard position in the past few decades. Then again, if it weren't for this mentality of not seeking merit, but seeking no fault, things in Liangzhou would not have turned out like this.

This is a bad debt, no one can figure out the causal relationship, how the previous Zhangye county guards tolerated the Hu people, we will not talk about it, only talk about it now.

Hu people are also human beings, and they have received a lesson in blood, no matter how restless they are, they must be calm for a year or two. It can be said that Zhangye County Guard in the past few years is undoubtedly the best thing to do. Envy and power, after the deterrence, then the best with others, that's all. It's always a mess than the previous county guards, and if you don't continue the appeasement strategy of the previous Hu people, your own black yarn hat will not be good.

In normal times, Liangzhou is not a place where politics is gilded, but Luozhou, Xuzhou and other places are, and the officials are overjoyed when they hear that they are assigned to these places. If I heard that I had to go to Liangzhou and Lingnan, one or two would cry with sad faces and something, but this time it was different. Obviously with the opportunity to gild, Qin Wan sent it directly to Jiang Bai, such a big favor, Jiang Bai can give it to anyone. Anyway, no matter who he gives this opportunity to, as long as this person still wants to 'mix' in the civil official circle, even if he is not clear about standing on Jiang Bai's side, he will have to pull the Jiang family when necessary. Otherwise, you will be poked in the backbone for the rest of your life and will not be able to lift your head.

Of course, if you are really shameless, it is okay to pretend that you have not received any kindness, and vaguely 'mix' it. But you have to make sure that you have a good relationship with the emperor, or that the emperor's ideas are very compatible with you, after all, even if you want to pretend to be stupid, it depends on whether others cooperate or not, such a big stain, it makes no sense for your opponent not to talk about it. If you sit on the throne and are a slightly normal person, and you see that people have such great kindness to you, but you don't mean to return it at all, and you feel bad about you, your future will be very "optimistic".

As soon as he thought of this, Jiang Bai's mood was a little complicated.

He understands that Qin Wan is not only selling good to him, but also a fair and honest conspiracy - I will give you benefits, if you accept it, in the eyes of outsiders, you are inclined to my faction. If you don't accept it, that's fine, there are others who are willing to serve me.

There is no 'force' persecution, let alone threat, just no matter how ordinary, it can even be said to be a clear price, no hurt feelings between each other, and a mutually beneficial 'transaction'. Let's swap political resources, hello and me, to achieve a win-win situation! As for this "swap", what impact will it have on the future......

Jiang Bai smiled bitterly, not knowing what to say.

Only those who think they are smart will feel that they are the only ones in the world who are the most clever, left and right, and please both sides. There is no one who is truly intelligent who does not understand the importance of "position". Once chosen, if you want to change the 'door', you have to put in a thousand times more effort. This is also the reason why when the abolished prince committed a crime, many people knew that they would follow him all the way to the black, and it was very likely that they would raid their families and exterminate their clans, but they still had to fight all their money to gamble on glory and wealth - even if they took refuge in the first emperor, they would be looked down upon by the world. Unless they make a gesture of being a hundred times more honest than before, and admonish the emperor desperately, they may be able to use the good reputation of decades of business in exchange for the people who forget that he turned his back on the defeated old master and threw himself into the unbearability of the victor. However, the first emperor was legitimate, and he did not need to contain his brother's courtiers, let alone step on his brother's reputation to elevate himself, let alone allow anyone to do so.

The fight between the two of us, that is a matter between our brothers, no matter how down, no matter how unbearable, no matter how big a mistake he makes, it is also my brother, I can take care of it, you get out of the way.

Qin Wan's situation is different from that of the first emperor.

I also know that between Qin Wan and Qin Jing, even if the former rarely gives the latter a straight look, it does not prevent the relationship between the two of them from reaching the point of life and death.

It can be said that in this battle, Qin Jing's only advantage is that his 'sex' is still ranked, and when it comes to politics, Qin Wan, who is maturing day by day, can throw him to the edge of the sky, if it is not 'sex', don't be restricted...... At this time, Jiang Bai, as the second minister, if his position was biased towards Qin Wan, it would undoubtedly push Qin Jing a step towards the abyss, and also make the Jiang family's situation very dangerous.

If Qin Wan was a man, even if the current situation was that several 'colorful' princes had their own abilities, Jiang Bai would not hesitate to throw himself at Qin Wan. Because men represent this lineage, even if the lord is dead, we can still support the son of the lord, the blood is endless, and the hope is not broken, but even if Queen Shen raises a concubine, so what? Not to mention mothers and concubines, looking at all dynasties, are there still few biological mothers who hold their authority and refuse to return their sons? Not to mention the elder sister and the younger brother, there are still etiquette, filial piety and other reasons between mother and son to restrain the latter, but if it is Queen Shen...... Got it? The eldest princess firmly holds the power, and if she doesn't 'hand' it back to her younger brother, who is already the emperor, how can there be such a reason in the world?

If she really wants to go that far, the position of the people under Qin Wan's 'door' will be very embarrassing - she will return to power, the new emperor is likely to have a problem with these old people and not reuse them; If you don't return to politics, it's another life-and-death game, and they're relatively untenable. These are all things that can be predicted and almost certainly happen, and it is no wonder that Jiang Bai hesitates.

For him, what Qin Wan gave was not only a question, but also a choice related to the fate of the Jiang family. Whether it is rejected or accepted, the Jiang family will go through a difficult period, and the difference is only in the present and in the future.

After a short hesitation, Jiang Bai made up his mind and said neatly: "There are three candidates, and I hope His Highness will decide." Immediately, he reported the names and resumes of the three people he was optimistic about.

Of these three people, one has a mild temperament and is very good at being a person, and although his political achievements are mediocre, he gets along very well with his colleagues; one has extraordinary skills, but his 'temperament' is somewhat 'fierce'; and the other is down-to-earth and hard-working, and he does not talk much, but he is very popular with the common people. Of course, they also have a common characteristic, that is, they are around forty years old, and there is a little power in the family, even if they are not nobles, they can't talk about a complete Shu background.

Obviously, Jiang Bai is paving the way for the Jiang family and Qi Run.

Qin Wan smiled, and his heart was happy. There is no doubt that Jiang Bai's move has proved his position - he accepted Qin Wan's kindness and was willing to return the favor. This reward is not only reflected in the support of many political affairs, but also in the great political power of the Great Xia nobles and civil officials. That's what she needs most.
