:u Y8 n [A7ϙ k7Y 6Kǐ& K 8 ! Y EnC The people moved chairs for the two of them. After serving tea, Xiao Rui said: "This time the king and Miss Mingyue went to Ba Province on a business trip, and the emperor has high hopes. Originally, he should have whipped away, but his father repeatedly instructed him to pay attention to Miss Mingyue's body first, so he could only take the boat slowly. However, for the sake of state affairs, this king still wants to ask the two of you to stand in front of the station, and first hurry up to Ba Province to investigate. In this way, the two of us went to Ba Province and our eyes were black. It can also save some time. What do you think? ”

Zhou Xiangli and Zeng Yukun hurriedly stood up and said solemnly: "I am willing to obey the instructions of the prince and Miss Mingyue." ”

Qin Mingyue sat upright like a mountain and didn't say anything, but Zhou Xiangli and Zeng Yukun felt a lot of pressure. On the contrary, Xiao Rui was kinder, and the two of them couldn't help but be secretly surprised in their hearts.

Xiao Rui saw that Mingyue had no intention of speaking, so he could only continue: "Ba Province is no better than other places. The mountains there are many lofty and steep, and they are still in a semi-civilized state. Although the imperial court has recovered Ba Province for more than 200 years, the local area is still in a semi-autonomous state, and there are very few administrative uniforms, most of which are managed by rural wild elders and big families. The various forces are also intricate. However, only half of us Han people live, and the rest are mixed with hundreds of ethnic groups, and there are many rules. You must be careful not to lose the face of the court. ”

Zeng Yukun and Zhou Xiangli hurriedly bowed down.

Xiao Rui said again: "On this trip, I will not only give you enough entanglement, but also give you an additional ten secret guards for the Star Tower, which will be in charge of a team leader, and my twenty guards will also be in charge of a team leader." In the past few years, I have almost run in with each other with the guards and the secret guards of the Star Picking Tower. I believe that it can protect your safety. Zeng Yukun Shizi, I know that there are a few guards you have with you, and they are average, so Miss Mingyue specially instructed the secret guards of the Star Picking Tower to take the time to help you train the guards' martial arts along the way. ”

Zeng Yukun was overjoyed when he heard it. Who doesn't know that the dark guards of the Star Picking Tower are skilled, and they are all put on the rivers and lakes, and they are all first-class good hands. If you can get their guidance, I am afraid that the level of your own escort force will be greatly improved. It's the best way to increase his wings. Zeng Yukun can not be happy.

Zeng Yukun was thanking him, but Xiao Rui stopped him with his hand and said, "You all have a mission here." The two of you first had to greet the various government offices along the way. Try not to send them to usher, after all, we all have the emperor's order, and Miss Mingyue doesn't like to socialize. Second, when I arrived in Ba Province, I first wanted to meet with the officials of Ba Province and the court officials. Then, I want to go to the eight families to take a walk, and I said that this time the imperial court sent Qin to send over, because the emperor wanted to know more about the situation in Ba Province. After all, the geographical location of Ba Province is special, close to the big merchants, and the big merchants have been eyeing each other in recent years, and the imperial court must make plans early. As for Miss Mingyue, she is just young and active, and when she heard that this king was going to be Qinchaba Province in front of the Imperial Palace, she asked for an errand to come to Ba Province to find good medicine, and she also came. Do you understand? ”

Zeng Yukun and Zhou Xiangli couldn't help but be stunned when they heard this.

Xiao Rui said: "By the way, Zeng Shizi, Miss Mingyue has a list of medicinal materials. There are also some silver tickets. Try to find officials in Ba Province, as well as the eight great families, and purchase more of these medicinal materials. Miss Mingyue is a master of alchemy. Turning back, after she arrives in Ba Province, she will open the road to alchemy, and your guards will also be able to get some, and you will make a lot of money. ”

Zeng Yukun's eyes burst into surprise when he heard this. He really didn't expect that Qin Mingyue looked young, and he hadn't been following the national teacher for long, so how could he even do alchemy?

However, Xiao Rui said: "This medicinal material, don't say that Miss Mingyue uses it for alchemy. It is said that it was purchased for the Star Picking Building. Anyway, the Star Picking Building needs a lot of medicinal materials every year, and more of these are nothing. Ba Province is rich in all kinds of rare medicinal materials. In this way, it will also hide people's eyes and ears from the forces in Ba Province to know the fundamental purpose of our trip. ”

Zeng Yukun and Zhou Xiangli hurriedly responded.

Xiao Rui said again: "You just have a good relationship with these officials and the eight great families." As for us investigating the local situation, I naturally sent a dark line to it. Do you understand? ”

At this moment, Zeng Yukun and Zhou Xiangli understood. I can't help but admire Xiao Rui as a young prince, his power and scheming are good, and when he comes out to be a messenger, he actually knows that the light and dark lines are going on at the same time. Zeng Yukun and Zhou Xiangli had a bottom in their hearts, and they naturally relaxed.

Hurriedly took the order and left.

When the two of them left, Qin Mingyue said to Xiao Rui with a smile: "This Zhou Xiangli is the person I was entrained in my previous life, how dare you go to you?" ”

Xiao Rui said with a smile: "In your previous life, you reused him, and he repaid his kindness, but after you were gone, many officials in your camp took refuge in He Xiang." However, although his official position is not obvious, he has never given up investigating the real cause of your death, and even connected with the hidden personnel of the Star Picking Tower. When I knew, I was moved by his kindness. So, in this life, I found him early. made the long history of my palace. ”

It turned out that there was such a thing, Qin Mingyue couldn't help but be stunned for a while. In her previous life, she died suddenly, which naturally caught her officials off guard, and she didn't have to think about it to know that her people must have suffered heavy losses. However, she was not surprised at all by the betrayal. However, such a loyal person was only slightly promoted by her, and she had not shown great kindness to Zhou Xiangli in her previous life, so he was so loyal, which really moved Qin Mingyue a little.

Qin Mingyue said, "Well, you did the right thing. I don't blame you anymore. After I was reborn, there were too many things, and I didn't think of looking for Zhou Xiangli, and I didn't know that in my previous life, Zhou Xiangli was so loyal. He is a talent, in his previous life, I still thought about training him a little more, and then, reuse it. In this life, since you are under your command, you must treat him well and give him more opportunities to experience, and he will be a powerful help for you in the future. ”

Xiao Rui said softly: "Don't worry about this, Zhou Xiangli has been with me for two years. Not only is life good now. He was also in charge of many of my foreign affairs, including the mine in southern Xinjiang, which he handed over to local officials. Therefore, he is not an ordinary Beijing official, he has already been trained. You don't know the situation in southern Xinjiang, which is even more complicated than Ba Province. Therefore, this time I can rest assured that I can let him go out to play the front station together. I believe that their group, with Zeng Yukun's noble identity as a second-class prince, coupled with Zhou Xiangli's thoughtfulness and determination, will definitely be able to do a good job. It can also give Zeng Yukun the opportunity to learn more from Zhou Xiangli. In the future, I will experience it a little earlier. ”

Qin Mingyue couldn't help but be overjoyed when she heard this, Xiao Rui was still so good to her.
