Chapter 125: Appointment of the Hall Master

This Guan Yue seemed to have expected Bai Luochu to ask this question, and he had already prepared in his heart. And because this is something that his grandfather has summed up for so many years as a transfer envoy, he is also proud at the moment, he was originally cold and not good at talking, but now he is telling the reason.

It's just that before saying this reason, he first asked Bai Luochu a question: "According to Doctor Bai's opinion, what is the focus of this long journey?"

Bai Luochu was a little stunned by his question, but he quickly came back to his senses and replied: "Safe, comfortable, and fast." ”

Three words jumped out one after another, and Guan Yue was in the middle of his arms, and Guan Yue no longer sold Guanzi, so he directly explained: "You are right, these three are the official roads, which are built by the imperial court, the most smooth and open, whether it is running a horse or riding a carriage or walking on foot, it is very comfortable, and naturally there are officers and soldiers guarding it, so there is no need to say that the safety is needless to say." Most of the official roads are used to transport military aircraft and important materials, and the route is also to connect the closest places between the two as much as possible, passing through as few cities as possible, so that the official road is safe, comfortable, and fast.

In this case, there are naturally many people walking in this official road, which does not meet our requirements, so we have to find another way outside the official road.

Safety is the first priority, and the potential safety hazards in this diagram have been eliminated just now, and the rest is the problem of comfort and speed. Most of the remaining three of these five roads will pass through large towns, and they are also the only way to the Luoyun Mountains, so the comfort and speed are naturally needless to say, so if someone does not choose the official road, they will inevitably choose these three roads.

The remaining two are much inferior, one of them because you have to detour to the back of the Luoyun Mountains to go up the mountain, and you have to take some more routes that you don't need to take, passing through many unnecessary towns, so basically no one chooses this road to walk. And the other is fast, but it is a small road secretly carved out by some people who do shady things, the road is narrow, even ordinary carriages cannot pass, and the road is also uneven. ”

"I'm afraid that people who don't know the inside story of this trail will not know why it appears on the map. In fact, Bai Luo had an answer in his heart for a long time, and now he asks more questions just to affirm what he thinks in his heart.

Guan Yue saw Bai Luochu's clear expression, and naturally understood that Bai Luochu probably had guessed the whole story of this matter, so he no longer concealed it, and honestly explained: "I won't tell you, when the Shadow Commander was looking for someone to draw a map, he never avoided me, I was watching the person draw on the side, originally on this map, the place of this route was blank, and it was I who had repeatedly argued with the craftsman who drew the map before filling in this trail that only a few people know." The Shadow Commander can testify that what I say is true. ”

Bai Luochu looked at Ying Lan outside, and Ying Lan hurriedly nodded when she saw this, indicating that what Guan Yue said was true.

"It's just that, Guan Gongzi, you also said that this road is mostly walked by those who do shady deeds, and these people are not guaranteed to be outlaws, if they walk rashly, will there be danger. ”

Hearing someone ask this question during the banquet, Guan Yue took the rare initiative to answer: "You don't have to worry about this, those people are just seeking money, I can't wait for no one to see you on weekdays, on this road, as long as you don't take the initiative to cause trouble, you won't encounter any danger, not to mention that now the government is reforming the government, and there are already a lot of controls on carrying private goods, and now it is even more strict, and the people walking on this road are not as many as before, although rest assured." ”

"Guan Gongzi has always considered things thoroughly, and now he can explain the reasons for choosing these two paths, obviously he has a lot of understanding of these two roads, since they are all people from Chonghuang Palace, we might as well give each other more trust. Bai Luochu spoke at this moment, obviously to prove to everyone that this Guan Yue was indeed credible.

When everyone heard Bai Luochu's words, they were suddenly silenced, in the final analysis, they can only be regarded as subordinates, and it is already a great blessing to be able to meet a master like Bai Luochu who discusses everything with his subordinates, so why should he ask for more.

"Master, it's better to assign good people and horses now, choose a route, there are not a few days left before the half-moon period, let's make a good plan." Seeing that everyone didn't have any objections at the moment, Ying Lan hurriedly persuaded her, hoping that Bai Luochu could seize the opportunity for everyone to be convinced at the moment and make arrangements as soon as possible.

Bai Luochu naturally understood Ying Lan's current arrangement, so he no longer hesitated and made a decision immediately.

"My current identity is still 'White Divine Doctor', on the surface, I don't have anything to do with this Chonghuang Palace, because of this identity, I'm afraid that many people in this capital are staring at me, so I can't just take up the important position in the Chonghuang Palace. Ying Lan is an old man who follows me, and he is also thoughtful and proper, and now I will appoint Ying Lan as the hall master of the Chonghuang Palace, and when I am not there, many matters of the Chonghuang Hall are handled by Ying Lan, if you don't understand anything, just ask him. Do you have any objections?"

Although Bai Luochu was determined to let Ying Lan be the hall master, if everyone disagreed, or if there were other candidates, they still had to respect everyone's opinions.

To Bai Luochu's surprise, under the leadership of Ying Lan, the Chonghuang Hall turned out to be very centripetal, when Bai Luochu said this decision. None of them refuted, but clapped their hands and congratulated Ying Lan.

Seeing this, Ying Lan was also polite: "Thank you for your trust and love, I will definitely live up to expectations." ”

After saying this, he turned his head and bowed to Bai Luochu, and said: "My subordinates will definitely live up to the trust of the lord and take the revitalization of the Chonghuang Hall as their own responsibility, and I hope that the lord can rest assured." The subordinates will definitely work hard to make the Chonghuang Hall the master's biggest backer!"

Seeing this, Bai Luo hurriedly helped Ying Lan up. He said, "I naturally believe in you, why do you make such a big gift, just get up." ”

Bai Luochu naturally understood the intention of Ying Lan's words now, in order to be able to call the wind and rain in the Chonghuang Hall even if he was not in the position of the hall master of this Chonghuang Palace. After all, Ying Lan is now the hall master of Chonghuang Palace, but he is the master of Ying Lan, no matter how you look at it, she wants more power.
