Jiang Chuan looked at a letter in his hand, his expression was complicated, and he was stunned for a while before opening it and quickly browsing it.

This letter was written by Ji Siyuan, the last emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and asked Wei Zhongxian to entrust the soldiers guarding the door to send it to Jiang Chuan.

The content of the letter is divided into three parts, one part of which is to review and reflect on the various mistakes he has made since his accession to the throne, and express deep remorse and feel that he is not worthy of being a king. The second part is to list the various achievements of Jiang Chuan since he came to power, and praise him, believing that Jiang Chuan is now the most suitable to become the lord of the world.

The last part emphasized that he was really willing to abdicate and give way to Xian, and only asked Jiang Chuan to let him feel at ease to be a small citizen of Shengdou, farming himself, self-sufficient, and living a lifetime. even said that he was willing to take the initiative to persuade those Ming clans to let them take the initiative to cooperate, not to make trouble, and to live the second half of their lives with peace of mind.

Jiang Chuan was both a little surprised and felt reasonable about the feeling of this letter.

He did not cut off the emperor's understanding of the outside world, and he hoped that he would be able to retreat in the face of difficulties, and his Zen position was in it.

It's just that for a long time, he has begun to forget about the emperor who was locked in the deep palace by himself, so he felt a little surprised.

"His Majesty the Emperor has always been indignant before, why did he suddenly become a person who understands?" Jiang Chuan handed the letter to Liu Ji and said with a smile.

After Liu Ji read it quickly, he smiled and said: "The emperor is young and vigorous, it is not easy for him to take the initiative to show that he is willing to give way, and there must be Wei Zhongxian's advice in this." To say that this Duke of Wei, although he is an ambitious person, his loyalty to the emperor is commendable. ”

"How does Your Highness plan to respond to the Emperor?" Su Qin asked.

"Let it dry for a few days. Baba hurriedly replied to the letter, so that he could see the king's joke. That seat is not allowed to be there, and no one can take it away. The emperor said that he was abdicating, but in fact, he just wanted to take advantage of this trend of persuasion to exchange for a chance to live. Jiang Chuan smiled indifferently.

At this point, when he ascends the throne only depends on his mood, and it doesn't matter whether the emperor lets him or not.

Let's go, it's nothing more than a little decent. If you don't let it, just kick it down, who can say anything?

Besides, Jiang Chuan has a way to make the emperor obediently abdicate.

Therefore, the emperor's letter is just a sign of his heart, and it is also a chance for himself to live.

Otherwise, he could "die" at any time.

This matter is put aside for the time being.

Liu Ji picked up a thick stack of persuasion forms and said: "Your Highness, these are the persuasion tables of officials in the past few days, including all of them from one product to another, and even some local officials have also been on the table." ”

After putting it down, he picked up a stack and said, "These are the watches on those lords." ”

"These are the tables on the Ji family's clan."

"These are ......"

Categorized, according to different groups, Liu Ji put more than a dozen persuasion tables in front of him, each of which was a thick layer.

Jiang Chuan just glanced at it, and he didn't have the heart to open it.

At the beginning, I was a little excited, but I watched a lot of the same clichés, which were nothing more than changing the way to pat myself on the back.

The people below have a clear mind about him, some people want to get credit for the ministers of the dragon, and most of them just follow the trend.

This is actually a matter of standing in line, everyone else is on it, if you don't go, it means that you are nostalgic for the old dynasty and go against the grain.

"Go back and tell Chen Zhaojun that he should check which officials above the seventh grade in Beijing have not been on the list so far, and what is the reason for not being on the list. It's just an investigation, no arrests. Jiang Chuan turned to Qi Xuan, who was waiting on the side, and ordered.

Qi Xuan received the order softly.

Turning back to meet the inquiring eyes of Liu Ji and others, Jiang Chuan smiled and said: "Since ancient times, those who have sold their fame and reputation have been like carp crossing the river, but there are also some talents who have the backbone, ability, and are not good at greeting. Although it seems that everything is the same on the surface, it is necessary to distinguish between them. ”

Liu Ji and the others are all human spirits, and Jiang Chuan understands them all as soon as he says it.

Some of these people who are not on the list are selling their reputation and trying to fight for a reputation of honesty and integrity. But there are also people who are immersed in practice and are not good at flattering.

It's not that the people on the table are loyal to Jiang Chuan, and those who don't are dissatisfied. The truth of the matter is often very different from what the eye sees.

Jiang Chuan asked the Black Ice Platform to investigate and distinguish these people who are not on the table, and he will not be soft-hearted for those who sell his reputation and reputation, and he will use it only if he is not good at welcoming but has real skills.

"Your Highness." Liu Ji and the three of them said in unison.

"What is holy and not holy, military advisor, Su Zi, Ru Zhen, my little Taoism is not enough to see in front of you. However, I have always been very clear that being a monarch is not about how capable you are, the most important thing is that you have to know what to do and what not to do. So I need you to mention it in the future, don't let me be confused. Jiang Chuan waved his hand and said sincerely.

In front of others, he may have to put on an unfathomable royal stand, but in front of these confidants and ministers, he has always been very humble and wise.

In terms of governing the country and controlling people, although he has some experience in the past two years, and he also has the insight of his previous life, he is still a novice after all, and he is in a hurry many times, and sometimes it is unrealistic, so he still needs these sages and old ministers to mention it.

Being a man is self-aware, and being a king is even more so. A person who does not have self-knowledge, he will destroy himself. If a king does not have self-knowledge, it is the country and the society that will be destroyed, but the millions of people will suffer.

"Although His Royal Highness still has little experience in governing the country, he already has the demeanor of a wise monarch since ancient times. This is the blessing of my courtiers and the blessing of the people. Liu Ji said with sincere admiration.

Su Qin and Hu Zongxian also agreed.

Jiang Chuan's face was a little red when he was praised by the three of them, and he changed the topic and said to Su Qin: "Suzi, I'm afraid that the Mongolian tribes and the three Korean countries have almost received the news, and they will definitely send special envoys to congratulate them at that time." Receiving the feudal kingdom is your errand for the domain, Suzi, you have to worry about it. If you are short on manpower, let the Ministry of Rites send someone to assist you. The main thing is to find out if there are any spies hiding in the mission. The details of the specific reception can be handled by the Ministry of Rites. ”

Su Qin bowed to the leader and ordered: "Your Highness, please rest assured." ”

Jiang Chuan turned to Hu Zongxian again and said: "These days, all war zones in the country must be on guard to prevent some people with evil intentions from coming out to make trouble. If the signs are wrong, troops can be sent to exterminate them immediately. ”

Hu Zongxian is the Governor of the General Staff Department, which is equivalent to the chief of the general staff of the whole army, and he has the right to manage and command the whole army, so this order will be given to him.

"Commandment."
