If it was a few years ago, Xiao Jing would definitely scoff at it - what "my generals", you are embarrassed to say such a second grade? In the eyes of those veterans, how old are you?

People look at you as the emperor to bow and be respectful, which is already a face-saving thing, really when they really look up to you, a hairy guy?

To put it mildly, if Xiao Jing ascends to the throne, his prestige in the army may be higher than Shao Ning's - he is a person who has really fought bloody battles with the Beihu people and made great contributions in several major battles.

Now, however, things are different.

In the past few years, Shao Ning has subdued some middle and high-level generals by wooing and Shien. Some of them have long had no intention of entering the field and just wanted to enjoy glory and wealth, some chose to completely surrender in the face of Shao Ning's unrefusable conditions for the sake of future generations, and some were dissatisfied with their own situation and chose sides to join the new emperor in order to get ahead......

After careful layout, Shao Ning has a certain degree of control over the military. Then, he first purged the henchmen that Chen Borui had cultivated during his reign - although this group of people was almost dealt with by several forces after the palace change, there were still some fish that lurked deep in the net, and it was reasonable for Shao Ning to sweep them away after touching the melons.

After that, he vigorously promoted a group of young officers who had made a name for themselves in the army and arranged them to go to various places for training. Young people are energetic and sharp, and they are more willing to fight for wealth under the new emperor by fighting and military exploits than the dull veterans, because these people have made brilliant achievements in their respective places.

Although most of them are still in the middle level, they have become a climate, and they are definitely a force to be reckoned with.

If you add Cao Chi, a shining star, Shao Ning will have enough confidence to say what he just said.

It doesn't matter if commodities are not sold in China, the shackles of the natural economy always need a certain amount of time to break; During this period, as long as Darui's iron hooves can reach, isn't that the dumping ground of commodities?

Shao Ning's complacent mood also infected Xiao Jing, and he said with a smile: "You have this ambition, that's really a good thing." It seems that the expansion of production should be prepared earlier, and such workshops should be spread all over Darui. ”

The two of them walked forward on the snow as they spoke, and soon they walked into a very cold alley.

Shao Ning stopped, his face a little complicated.

After organizing the language a little, he looked at Xiao Jing earnestly and said, "Speaking of which, there is something else I want to ask you for help with." ”

Xiao Jing wanted to make a joke, but when he found that Shao Ning's appearance was very serious, he put away his smile: "Even if I am told, I will do my best." ”

Shao Ning's expression was relieved, and he let out a long sigh and said, "I want you to see someone for me." ”

Xiao Jing thought for a moment, and his breath stagnated slightly: "Chen Zhongwen? ”

Shao Ning sighed: "Who else can there be besides him?" ”

Thinking of that stubborn goods, Xiao Jing also sighed.

On the day of the palace change, he tried to let Chen Zhongwen go in public, but that kid was not very lucky, and he was caught again after walking out of the palace gate with his front foot.

In the two days after he was caught, he nearly died several times.

Under the circumstances, there were really as many people who wanted to kill him!

The major forces that supported Shao Ning's ascension to the throne of course wanted to get rid of this heir personally selected by Chen Borui;

Some of the wall grasses who tend to be inflammatory, want to show their hearts to the new emperor by killing him;

Some people who support Chen Borui also want to kill people after seeing that the general trend has gone, because Chen Zhongwen is one of the last people to see Chen Borui, and he must know a lot of things that should not be known.

Fortunately, several times of danger were only thrilling in the end - under Shao Ning's protection, those who had ideas finally gave up the idea of doing it.

It's just that his identity is too sensitive - even if you can't kill him, you have to put him under close guard.

As a result, Chen Zhongwen was imprisoned for four years in a remote courtyard in the capital.

In the past four years, Shao Ning has also taken care of him.

The others were locked up in a difficult life of hunger and cold, but although he did not have fine clothes and food, he had sufficient food and clothing, and in winter there was a charcoal fire, so that there was no risk of freezing and starvation;

In order to make his life less difficult, his princess and children were also sent to reunite with him. Because he had to take care of this family, Shao Ning also sent serving chamberlains and palace maids to the small courtyard;

Later, some people did not take care of Chen Zhongwen and others, but instead looked at people's low pretensions. Shao Ning was furious when he learned about it, and directly drove the guilty chamberlain out of the palace, and sent the palace maid who was in cahoots with him to the Huanyi Bureau;

Hearing that Chen Zhongwen's children had reached the age of going to school, Shao Ning specially invited a husband for him, and also sent a lot of four treasures in the study;

Although countless people in the court said that they would take away Chen Zhongwen's title, Shao Ning has always tried his best to resist public opinion, and even the prince has been retained for him.

In the past two years, there have been countless people who have said that they want to kill Chen Zhongwen, and many of them are Shao Ning's cronies. However, Shao Ning just laughed at this; Once, he was forced by a person who was eager to make meritorious service and desperately admonished, and he even beat the man with a few sticks and drove him out.

As an emperor, to be able to do things to this point can be said to be benevolent and righteous.

For this reason, some people praise Shao Ning as a broad-minded benevolent monarch, but more people will say in private that he is "a woman's benevolence" or "buying people's hearts".

However, Shao Ning didn't care.

People like Xiao Jing who really understand him naturally know what he thinks:

Chen Zhongwen worked in the newspaper on and off for several years. In Shao Ning's eyes, he is a colleague of the newspaper and a brother who has fought side by side with him - as a nostalgic person, unless Chen Zhongwen really has any bad intentions, Shao Ning will never embarrass him.

Besides, Chen Zhongwen is also Shao Ning's cousin. Shao Ning, this kid has not received a cold imperial education, how can he kill such a person?

"That kid is so stubborn. I've written to the past a few times, and guess what? Shao Ning snorted coldly and said: "I said that this is a letter written to him, not a holy decree, but he still said that this is His Majesty's imperial pen, and he didn't dare to slack off, and then he offered it high, and he didn't even look at it!" ”

Xiao Jing was silent. was only one step away from the throne, but he was pulled off the horse by someone, and watched others become the Ninety-Five...... No one can easily overcome such a hurdle.

"Anyway, Lao Tzu doesn't raise waste." Shao Ning said hatefully: "If he doesn't want to live the rest of his life like this, you can persuade him to come out and do things!" Isn't the newspaper short of manpower? I think he's a good fit! ”

"Heh, Lao Tzu hasn't changed the dynasty again, you tell him, don't play that trick of 'not eating Zhou Su' for me!"
