If Bian Guang knew what His Royal Highness the Seventh was thinking, he would have to sigh with emotion, so it's good to be young.

He let go of Kong Wen because of Lu Hanjiang's order, after all, His Majesty's birthday banquet was just around the corner, and His Majesty's face was not good-looking, so it was inevitable that he would be arrested.

This is a cutscene, for Lu Hanjiang on the other side to confuse the princess's sight, and as for his respect for His Royal Highness the Seventh, it is purely a matter of habit, he has been in Jinyiwei for a long time, and it is instinct to talk about people when he sees them, and he will naturally be caught when he sees people talking nonsense.

Bian Guang shook his head, no longer thinking about these useless things, he summoned the guards on the side and asked, "Where is Cui Baihu?" ”

The guard looked at Bian Guang in surprise and replied, "My lord, Cui Baihu was ordered to go south. ”

Bian Guang then remembered that there was such a thing, Cui Yixiao was assigned by Lord Lu to go to Miaojiang to do business, and he secretly thought, maybe it's time to recruit some talents.

The problem of Jinyiwei's withering talents is not only noticed by Bian Guang, but Lu Hanjiang is also worried about it.

It is actually an exaggeration to say that there is a withering talent, it should be a shortage of manpower, mainly because there is a shortage of middle-level forces that can carry the banner.

After all, there are nearly half of the thousands of households lost all of a sudden, and anyone who changes them will feel that there are not enough people.

In the past, Lu Hanjiang served in thousands of households, and there were two capable hundred households under him, Bian Guang and Jiang Xian, and then based on them, it was enough to develop a group of powerful subordinates.

But now that he is a pacification envoy, not to mention anything else, he has to find a way to fill the vacant positions of a few thousand households.

His descendants naturally have to keep a good position, so the remaining one, Beizhen Fusi, originally had two deputy thousand households, Ying Wuxian and Liu Yishou.

When Lu Hanjiang wrote down the names of these two people on the roster, there was always a subtle feeling, a person can be lucky for a while, but not for a lifetime.

After hesitating for a moment, he still wrote down the names of the two of them, and then handed the roster to his subordinates, this thing will be circulated all the way to Meng Yuan's hands, and when the commander nods, he can start to arrange the assessment and promotion.

After dealing with this matter, Lu Hanjiang stretched his waist, packed up his desk and prepared to go home, he had worked too hard recently, and rewarded himself with a half-day vacation.

......

"Senior brother, what are you talking about, Senior Brother Kong, he, he actually colluded with Jinyiwei and used the secrets of the Loose Sect to benefit himself?!"

In the teahouse, Xi Qiu, who was dressed in disguise, got amazing news from "Qiao Cunsi".

Under normal circumstances, Lu Hanjiang is not interested in boring rumors, so this time when she came to see Xi Qiu, she was still the emperor's Xiaoyuan after the disguise, she sighed, imitated Lu Hanjiang's tone and said: "Senior sister, this matter is what I saw with my own eyes today, and there will be no falsehood." ”

"This, this ......."

Xi Qiu was a little panicked for a while, it was a taboo to do things in the rivers and lakes in Beijing, not to mention that what the Carefree Sect was seeking was a monstrous event, and once it was discovered, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Once the secret of jade is exposed, not to mention how many people will covet it, His Majesty the Emperor alone will definitely not let go of these disciples of the Easy Sect.

"Senior sister, you should make a decision quickly." Huangfu Xiaoyuan inadvertently urged, interrupting Xi Qiu's thinking.

"The stakes are very high, if he really deviates from the Loose Sect, I'm afraid he can only strike first." Xi Qiu may still have a trace of expectation for Kong Wen, and he didn't say anything to death.

Huangfu Xiaoyuan persuaded him: "Senior sister, His Majesty the Emperor's birthday is imminent, and if you do it at this time, I am afraid it will cause a lot of unnecessary trouble." ”

"You're talking about...... How can we be good?"

Xi Qiu was restless, even if she had the peerless martial arts of the Free Sect, but once she lost her backbone, it was only a matter of a moment for her to start a mess.

"Why don't you tell Senior Brother Chu about this and ask him what he thinks?"

Huangfu Xiaoyuan guided on the one hand, and said on the other hand: "But senior sister, that Kong Wen is inconsistent in appearance, and he is really not trustworthy, so we can't trust him anymore." ”

"But," Xi Qiu was puzzled, "that secret needs to be solved by collecting the seven jade stones in the hands of each highness, if Senior Brother Kong refuses to help......"

"Senior Sister, Senior Brother Rong is telling you the truth, the secret of jade does require all the tokens in the hands of His Highness, but it doesn't have to be seven people working together."

Huangfu Xiaoyuan said vaguely, and in a hurry, Xi Qiu didn't understand what she meant for a while, but said, "Senior brother, please speak up." ”

"Senior sister, it's impossible to get out of it now, so it's better for us to go further."

Ignoring Xi Qiu, whose face had changed drastically, Huangfu Xiaoyuan said bluntly: "We pretend to cooperate with Senior Brother Kong, and just do something in secret." ”

After Xi Qiu was silent for a long time, he looked at Huangfu Xiaoyuan and asked, "...... Senior brother, in fact, you also want to fight for the dragon's skill, right? ”

"Who in the world doesn't want to go to heaven in one step."

Huangfu Xiaoyuan sighed and said, "Senior sister, we have no way out, if we don't want to become the soul of Jinyiwei's sword, we can only fight hard." ”

“...... If you have any ideas, let's talk about them. Xi Qiu finally gave in.

Huangfu Xiaoyuan said lightly: "The day after tomorrow is Your Majesty's birthday banquet, we need to rush ahead of Senior Brother Kong to push people out." ”

Xi Qiu sighed and said, "I will persuade the Fourth Highness." ”

"Senior sister is wrong, it's not the Fourth Highness, it's the Seventh Highness."

Huangfu Xiaoyuan's eyes were sly, and she said: "I remember, although His Royal Highness has lost power, he still has some influence in the court, and there are also a few courtiers under his command who have not been exposed, right?" ”

"Not bad." Xi Qiu nodded, although the fourth prince is not smart, but his family background is not thin, even if he loses a few times, there is still a little left.

Huangfu Xiaoyuan said in a surprising voice: "Please Senior Sister to move the Fourth Highness, let him greet those courtiers, and jointly invite the Seventh Highness to be the crown prince at the birthday banquet." ”

"Senior brother, are you thinking-" Xi Qiu was taken aback, and seemed to understand what the other party meant.

"Since Senior Brother Kong is unkind, he can't blame us for being unjust, besides, they originally planned to push one of their Highnesses out to test it, but now that the Fourth Highness has been replaced by the Seventh Highness, we can also see Your Majesty's attitude."

Xi Qiu looked at the confident Huangfu Xiaoyuan, and didn't hesitate for long before choosing to agree to this matter.

After returning to the Lu family, Huangfu Xiaoyuan told Lu Hanjiang about the process.

"Senior Sister Xi Qiu is a very controlling person, you are doing a good job." Lu Hanjiang praised her.

Huangfu Xiaoyuan's face was flat, thinking of that Xi Qiu, it was indeed the same as Lu Hanjiang's evaluation.

Although this senior sister Xi Qiu has a good talent in martial arts, she lacks assertiveness in dealing with the world, and her temperament is also a little lonely, if someone close to her says it, it is easy to influence her.

This time, Lu Hanjiang did not set a script for Huangfu Xiaoyuan, everything was done cheaply by her, and there was only one request, that is, to split the Xiaoyao faction.

Huangfu Xiaoyuan didn't know if she had completed the task, but no matter how many times, it was difficult for her to adapt to such a way of using lies and traps to calculate the behavior of others.

Rather than working hard to lead the other party into the trap she had prepared step by step, she would rather slap the other party to death with one palm.

The closer he got, the more Huangfu Xiaoyuan couldn't understand Lu Hanjiang, and he didn't understand the reason why the other party had to personally participate in these things, appreciate the suffering of others and take pleasure in it, even if it was just a child's play for him, he still enjoyed it.

The resistance in her heart was accompanied by tangled pain, and the astringency spread in her mouth, Huangfu Xiaoyuan subconsciously covered her mouth and nose, and her delicate brows were gently frowned together.

After noticing Huangfu Xiaoyuan's strange appearance, Lu Hanjiang handed over a glass of water, and he smiled happily.
