Taishou Xu Qian is old, and his wife has died, leaving his eldest son Xu Ji.
Xu Qian later married another lady, but this lady was more than thirty years younger than him, and soon gave birth to a young son, Xu Zhi, who is now less than two years old.
Chen Xi looked at the information provided to him by the system and felt that there was a lot to be done here.
"I have an idea now, but I still don't have the right people to do this." Chen Xi said to the system.
"Yes, you can feel the importance of manpower now, which means that you have gradually gotten to the top." The system first expressed its appreciation for Chen Xi, and then unfolded the picture of the character attributes in front of Chen Xi.
"What kind of people do you need, I can choose characters for you according to your conditions." System Channel.
"That's great. I need to have a higher conspiracy stat, but a lower level of ambition and a very high level of loyalty to me. Chen Xi said to the system.
"Okay, there are three people who meet this condition."
After the system finished speaking, the attributes of the three people were displayed in front of Chen Xi.
"Conspiracy: 67
Ambition: 23
Loyalty: 52"
"Conspiracy: 62
Ambition: 2
Loyalty: 56"
"Conspiracy: 59
Ambition: 41
Loyalty: 71"
Chen Xi looked at the three important attributes of these three characters and pondered.
Everyone's attributes have their own strengths and weaknesses, Chen Xi has to balance the gap and choose the one who suits him best.
"It's decided, let's choose him."
"Lu Qiu, Conspiracy: 59, Ambition: 41, Loyalty: 71"
"Why did you choose this man?" The system asked, obviously more concerned about Chen Xi's idea of selecting people than the result.
"On the surface, Lu Qiu's ambition is relatively high, and the level of intrigue is the lowest among the three, but his loyalty is the highest, and this is the most important thing for me."
"Yes, it's the right idea." System loopback.
"However, in fact, I am also a little worried, after all, his ambition level is really a bit high." Chen Xi said without concern.
"It's simple. The so-called ambition is just a little more desire.
As long as he can relieve your worries, what he wants is not too much, and he will give him everything he can.
After all, as an emperor, you should be generous.
As for any changes in the future, you can adapt to the situation, as long as you take measures to deal with it in advance. ā
Chen Xi nodded thoughtfully, the top priority now is to solve the matter of Lingzhou first.
"Come on, Xuan Luqiu is here to see me."
After a while, Lu Qiu came to the Qianming Hall where Chen Xi met with the minister.
"Lu Qiu, I want to entrust you with an errand, and I will be rewarded for doing a good job. But if you don't do it well-" Chen Xi didn't say the rest of his words, looking at Lu Qiu.
"If Weichen doesn't do well, he will come to see him." Lu Qiuhui was not ambiguous.
Chen Xi was very satisfied with his answer, and assigned Lu Qiu the task and let him go down.
A month has passed, and the things that Chen Xi explained to Lu Qiu were all handled very properly.
Chen Xi assigned Lu Qiu the task of letting him secretly go to Lingzhou, and then find a suitable channel to spread rumors.
The first rumor is that Mrs. Taishou is not convinced by Xu Qian's eldest son Xu Ji, but wants her son Xu Zhi to inherit Xu Qian's position.
The second rumor is even more vicious, saying that Xu Zhi is most likely not Xu Qian's flesh and blood, but Mrs. Taishou and others.
These two rumors gradually spread from the corners of the market like wings, until they reached the mouths of officials at all levels in Lingzhou.
And these Lingzhou officials inevitably heard all kinds of rumors.
So in less than two months, Lingzhou, which was originally safe and sound, suddenly became turbulent.
And as Xu Qian, who was old and frail, suddenly fell ill, this undercurrent that was still underneath suddenly surfaced.
Officials of all sizes in Lingzhou began to stand in line according to their own judgments, some supported the eldest son Xu Ji, and some were more inclined to stand on the side of Mrs. Taishou and the younger son.
And the second task assigned by Chen Xi to Lu Qiu was to understand the movements of everyone in Lingzhou City clearly.
Of course, all this information cannot be collected by Lu Qiu alone, Lu Qiu has successfully established his own intelligence network by hiding his identity in Lingzhou City while walking around.
Chen Xi could see the secret book sent to him by Lu Qiu every day.
"Things in Lingzhou seem to have come to fruition, so what should be done to implement them?" After Chen Xi finished reading Lu Qiu's report on this day, he asked the system.
"As you said, the current situation in Lingzhou is basically under our control, so this is a very good training opportunity for you.
You can try to do what you want, trust your own judgment, and of course I'll warn you if I find a major vulnerability. The system replied.
Chen Xi also thought so, thinking of what he was about to do, he couldn't help but be a little excited.
Chen Xi read Lu Qiu's flying pigeon biography again, and frowned unconsciously when he saw a place.
"A cook actually asks for two thousand taels, isn't this appetite too big?"
The system replied, "I thought you would ignore the past." But it's hard for Lu Qiu, there must be a lot of things that are still more troublesome to do. He also wants to be more lenient in turnover. You know for yourself. ā
Chen Xi thinks about it, it is still a big matter now, and one thousand two thousand taels are all small things.
"Okay, let's do it." Chen Xi gave Lu Qiu the final instructions.
Here in Lingzhou, Xu Qian's condition this time is not optimistic, and he has been bedridden for many days, but his condition has not improved at all.
Mrs. takes care of Xu Qian every day by Xu Qian's side, and the eldest son Xu Ji comes to Xu Qian every morning and evening to say goodbye, and then he doesn't know what to do all day.
In fact, Mrs. Taishou didn't need to inquire, and she could guess what Xu Ji had been busy with for so many days, but she didn't panic, because she had already made plans.
Sooner or later, Xu Qian was in bed for many days, and finally died.
Xu Ji, who had already heard the news, gathered all his soldiers and horses, and hurried to the Taishou Mansion to block the water surrounding the mansion.
Then Xu Ji took fifty personal armor soldiers and broke into the inner house of the Taishou Mansion, and anyone who stepped forward to block along the road was killed.
When he broke into the main room, he found Mrs. Taishou sitting upright on the main seat, and just said a word coldly,
"You'd better put incense on your father first."
Xu Ji ignored it, pointed at Mrs. Taishou and shouted,
"Someone accused you of rebellion and came up with ironclad evidence, now I want to take you and Xu Zhi to the government to inquire, dare to disobey, kill!"
Mrs. Taishou looked at Xu Ji, who was drawing his sword in front of him, and the fifty armor soldiers behind him, and couldn't help but smile coldly.
