The emperor heard that King Qi lost his voice, smiled faintly, and asked, "Yingren, you say you can't?" ”

"Father, that ...... There are so many suitable candidates, why do you want Chu Huan to go? King Qi knew that he was out of shape, and said a little nervously: "Chu Huan is serving in the local government, and this suddenly let him go to the northwest, always ...... There's always something wrong! ”

The prince had already said: "Yingren, you said that there are many candidates, why don't you recommend one!" ”

Yingren was stunned for a moment, and for a while, where could he raise someone.

"Chu Huan is one of the few officials in the DPRK who has seen the northwest after the war." The prince said slowly: "If you want to clean up the current stall in Xiguan, Wu Quancai doesn't need to say it, my father, my son, I heard that when Chu Huan entered Beijing, he was assessed in the Iron Blood Garden, and he passed three levels in a row, Wu Shuangquan, and it is precisely because of this that my father entrusted me with a heavy responsibility, I don't know if my son is wrong?" ”

The emperor bowed slightly, and said with a smile: "Chu Aiqing is indeed the pillar of my Great Qin. ”

"Lead the mission, send an envoy to Xiliang, in the palace of the king of Xiliang is not afraid of danger, raise the prestige of our country, have great courage, Huang Ju rebelled, Chu Huan stepped forward, loyal, this time to Anyi, not only to assist the local extermination of the Huang family, but also to thwart the conspiracy of Tianmendao, wisdom and bravery, such a person, isn't it exactly the talent that the father needs?" The prince was calm and relaxed, and said slowly: "Now is the time to employ people, although Chu Huan has not taken up a post in the local area, but because of this, he has nothing to do with the local government in Xiguan, so he can make a bold rectification, Chu Huan has all three of wisdom, courage and loyalty, and the son can't think of a more suitable candidate." ”

The emperor looked at Chu Huan and asked, "Chu Aiqing, the crown prince recommended you to go to the northwest to serve as the governor of Xiguan Dao, what do you think of it?" ”

Chu Huan was shocked indescribably at this time, he never expected that after discussing and discussing, he would actually transfer himself to the northwest.

The Governor of the Northwest, of course, is an official position with real power, but now the situation in Xiguan Road is complicated and waiting to be revived, Chu Huan really doesn't think it's a good place to go.

He suddenly thought of the hexagram of the Hongyu Daoist, the Hongyu Daoist claimed that Chu Huan was going to leave the capital in a few days, was it really the old Taoist priest's words? In this way, the old Taoist priest really has two skills.

"Holy Lord, the minister is afraid." Chu Huan said respectfully: "The minister asked himself if he had such talent, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is really too prestigious, Xiguan is a big matter, and the governor is selected, so you should also think carefully and twice, the minister ...... The minister really can't. ”

The prince smiled and said, "Lord Chu is humble. The most important thing in Xiguan Road is the post-war reconstruction, and the people who rebuild it, the palace felt that it was necessary to send officials from the household department to go to the party early on, and the first thing that came to mind at that time was Lord Chu. Now is the time to employ people, and Lord Chu does not have to be humble, he should share his father's worries. ”

Shen Keqiu had already said: "Holy Lord, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince recommended Lord Chu, it is really the best candidate, the old minister was confused, he didn't expect that the most suitable person was in front of him." ”

Yingren hurriedly said: "Father, Chu Huan has never governed a place, if there is a slight difference. On the contrary, it will be a mistake ...... state affairs! ”

The emperor shook his head and said, "Don't worry, as long as Chu Aiqing does his best, there will not be too much mistake, and I can also assure you that even if there is a small mistake, I will never blame you." Xiguan is now an extraordinary time, and Chu Aiqing can be governed by extraordinary means according to local conditions. I just need to see Xiguan Dao settle down as soon as possible and restore order, and if I do it, I will leave it to Chu Aiqing. ”

Chu Huan was surprised, listening to the emperor's meaning, it seemed that he had made up his mind to let himself go to the northwest, although this kind of transfer was dreamed of by many people, but Chu Huan was extremely unhappy in his heart.

He tried his best to build a number of miraculous feats, the purpose of which was to gain a firm foothold in the imperial court, stay in the capital, and then fulfill his wishes, but the merit was built, but because it was too prominent, the capital could not stay, Chu Huan secretly complained in his heart, and sighed that if he knew this, he should behave mediocrely after entering Beijing.

With the last glimmer of hope in his heart, he arched his hand and said: "Shengshang, Wechen is really powerless, this matter is very important, Wechen also asks the Sage to think twice......!" ”

Before he could finish speaking, the emperor had already shook his head and said, "Needless to say, I have made up my mind, and you will be the governor of Xiguan Dao." Seeing that Chu Huan seemed to be a little reluctant, he seemed to feel that his tone was a little heavier, sighed, and his voice was slower, "Chu Aiqing, what is the situation in the imperial court, you understand if I don't say it." The southeast Tianmen demon road is troublesome, my mind is now in the southeast, but if the northwest is unstable and I am worried all night, how can I put all my thoughts on the southeast? Although you have not been an official for a long time, but I admire you very much, as the prince said, you are both wise and brave, but you are loyal to me, I dominate the world, in fact, I rely on my eyes, I see people very accurately, since I want you to go to Xiguan, you will definitely live up to my expectations......! ”

Chu Huan stiffened his head and said, "Holy Lord, isn't it...... Do you have to go? ”

All the officials were shocked in their hearts, the emperor's words were all said to this point, how could this Chu Huan be so ignorant, and he had to bargain, you need to know how long you Chu Huan has only been in Beijing, less than two years, from an unknown person, he has become a governor, a feudal official, this is a blessing from several lifetimes of cultivation, and it is also to catch up with this kind of time, if it is not for the changes in the northwest, plus the relationship between you and the king of Qi, it is impossible to have such a generous grace in a few more lifetimes.

Many people even think that Chu Huan is purely cheap and obedient, doesn't he just want to follow King Qi to soar? Even if the King of Qi ascends the throne and has a close relationship with the King of Qi, but the qualifications and age are there, the King of Qi is the emperor, it is impossible to give you the title of king and prime minister, and it is almost the same to be able to give you a feudal official, and now the emperor has given you the position of governor in advance, with Chu Huan's qualifications and prestige, this is already a big thing that shocks the four people, and you are still hypocritical here, I really don't know what to do.

Don't say that this dynasty, that is, the previous dynasties, is about to become a governor in his early twenties, which is also one of the few, and it is rare to be tight, so long, Chu Huan looks like he is going to hell, which is really incomprehensible.

The emperor was not angry, but just bowed his head and said, "Since I have decided, I naturally have to go." Chu Huan, if you have any difficulties, you can tell me now, as long as it is reasonable, I will not allow it. ”

Chu Huan knew that the overall situation had been decided, and he was still thinking about whether Xu Congyang would come out to say a few words, but Xu Congyang looked at his nose and nose and heart, and he didn't seem to see it, so Chu Huan knew that there was little hope.

He glanced at Ma Hong, this guy is duplicitous to himself on weekdays, and he doesn't have a good impression of himself in his bones, he thought that Ma Hong would also come out to oppose it, but unfortunately this guy didn't say a word at all, but his eyes showed a little brilliance.

Chu Huan's heart turned, and he already understood Ma Hong's thoughts.

Being in the household department has always been Ma Hong's eye nail and flesh thorn, Ma Hong is in charge of the household department, and he can't cover the sky with one hand, just because of Chu Huan's existence. Now that Chu Huan has made great contributions in Anyi, he is in the limelight, if he still stays in the household department, Ma Hong, the household secretary, is afraid that he will have to grovel to his subordinates, and maybe one day even his position as the household secretary may be replaced by this popular newcomer in the imperial court.

Now that Chu Huan has been transferred away, although he is a feudal official, at least the household department has no Chu Huan, no matter how majestic Chu Huan is, he can only make trouble in the northwest of the border, and he can no longer stop the affairs of the household department.

Chu Huan sighed secretly, the wood was already in the boat, and he said helplessly: "There is a decree in the saint, and the ministers should obey it." It's just that...... It's just that Weichen is really unfamiliar with Xiguan Road, and he doesn't know anything about the customs, customs, and customs...... If there is a difference in the future of the minister, the minister ...... The minister also implored the Holy One to be able to ...... lightly! ”

Suddenly, several ministers laughed secretly, this Chu Huan is young, most people would not have thought that he would be sent to Xibei to serve as the governor, this is the youngest governor since the founding of this dynasty, and now the situation in the northwest is to send experienced old officials, and they may not be able to clean up the mess in Xiguan, Chu Huan, a shallow and cutting-edge official, wants to clean up Xiguan Road, it is a little whimsical, but this will is recommended by the prince, and the emperor has already made a decision, and everyone is not too much to object, It's just that most people think that when Chu Huan arrives in the northwest, he must do his best, but he is afraid that it won't be long before he will be dismissed, but he also wants to see jokes when the time comes.

The Emperor smiled, "I know your thoughts. Glancing to the side, next to it was Shui Lian, bowed his body, retreated, and soon came over with a jade plate, covered with yellow silk, glanced at the emperor, the emperor bowed slightly, Shui Lian came to Chu Huan with the jade plate, lifted the yellow silk, but inside it was a golden thing that had always been in the shape of a token, and I saw the word "free" engraved in the middle.

"This is the golden sword I prepared for you!" The emperor stroked his beard and said: "I know that the situation in Xiguan Road is unusual, if you can't rest assured, you can't do a good job, this golden arrow, you carry it with you, I give it to you today in front of all the ministers, with this golden sword, it is equivalent to if you give a life, if he has a capital crime in the future, you can replace this golden sword!" ”

The ministers were all shocked.

Since the founding of the country, I have never heard of any golden sword to avoid death, and many ministers of the court, the slightest negligence, the emperor will kill the killer, and no one has ever committed a capital crime but can be safe and sound.

Today, the emperor gave him a golden sword to avoid death in front of all the ministers, this honor is really unprecedented, and all the ministers feel that the emperor is really graceful to Chu Huan.

Chu Huan didn't shirk either, thanked him and put it away, and then said: "Holy Lord, if the minister goes to Xiguan, there are still a few things to ask for the Holy Lord's permission!" ”

"It's okay for you to talk!"

"The minister knows that there are several major events when he goes to Xiguan, the peace of the people is one, the peace of bandits is two, the rectification of officials is three, and although the resumption of production ranks fourth, it is the most important." Chu Huan said solemnly: "The minister only hopes that the Holy Lord will be kind and can let the imperial court give the northwest support ......!" ”

The emperor stroked his beard and said: "I have already made a decree before, exempt Xiguan Dao from paying taxes for three years, within three years, you don't need to pay a penny of silver to the imperial court, you only need to let the people of Xiguan Dao eat their bellies, within three years, recover their vitality, and after three years, I will ask you for silver again." ”
