Dugu Xin's home is full of visitors, most of whom are received by the staff of the family in the front hall, but there are also those who have a good status and need to be introduced into the middle hall to be entertained by the master himself.

Therefore, once the banquet in the middle hall is opened, it suddenly becomes a flowing water banquet, and the guests come and go, coming and going, from morning to evening, they have changed several times, and even Duguxin and Li Tai have alternately left the table and quit the event to sober up.

But there was only one guest who sat the most steadily, and that was the big-mouthed He Ruodun, who had changed several times on the food in front of him, but he still sat in his place and never left.

Li Tai saw He Ruodun like this, and couldn't help but sigh secretly, nowadays from the peaceful and prosperous era of non-horses and horses in Nanshan, swords and guns in storage, a brave general like He Ruodun is undoubtedly the most valuable talent, and it is not a lonely nameless class, even Daxingtai knows that his people are brave, but he is still depressed, which shows the impact of bad mouth on a person's future.

Of course, Li Tai himself is not a very likable guy, and he has offended most of the Taiwan government staff members by passing the examination alone, but he is both forward-looking and systematic in his work, so he can ignore how his colleagues feel about him, because he can open up new business fields at any time without being hindered by others.

But He Ruodun obviously does not have such an endowment, even if Yuwentai loves his bravery and wants to be promoted, at least he must have a solid merit, otherwise even if he is promoted, he is just a fortunate minister who cannot serve the public.

It wasn't until late at night that Weng and his son-in-law sent off the last wave of guests, including He Ruodun, who had been lying on the table to eat, and when they saw that everyone had left, they could only get up and reluctantly leave.

After sending the guests away, Duguxin led Li Tai to the side hall to sit down and drink tea and sober up and chat.

"At today's banquet, looking at your words, it seems that you also have a lot of appreciation for He Ruo's son?"

Dugu Xin had lived in Jiangnan for several years, but he was also a little infected with the habit of drinking tea, took a sip of the rich tea soup, looked at Li Tai and said with a smile.

"I still need to learn to be a toddler, what qualifications do I have to appreciate the brave and brave man who was recommended early?"

After hearing this, Li Tai hurriedly shook his head and said, it is not easy to say that what he appreciates is He Ruobi, the son of He Ruodun, as for this old man, if he says that he appreciates it is still a bit arrogant, and he may not be able to lower it, if he summons this master into his own team, maybe this little bit of family background will have to be cleaned up by that guy's broken mouth.

"Haha, don't be presumptuous, you really have deep hopes and appreciate the appointment of your envoy by the Daxingtai."

As soon as Dugu Xin said this, the atmosphere in the room suddenly became a little weird.

After Li Tai's appointment was issued, Weng and his son-in-law have been avoiding this embarrassing topic, but what has happened always needs to be faced. And if some thoughts and feelings in the heart are not honest, they are very likely to become a knot if they accumulate.

Li Tai hurriedly straightened his sitting posture and listened respectfully to the teachings, and Dugu Xin sighed again and said: "He Ruodun visited me today, I know what he wants in his heart, and if he had rewarded his courage before, I would have been happy to be a pioneer." But now it is not easy to settle his subordinates, this disciple is brave, but his temperament is often paranoid and obsessed, and it is difficult to get along with the masses. My subordinate has a problem to be resolved, and there is really no room left for him. ”

Li Tai suddenly felt a little embarrassed after hearing this, this so-called disturbance naturally refers to him, although this is also Dugu Xin's own fault, and it is not very directly related to him, but the family does not speak two words, and always has to face it together.

He didn't know what the specific situation of Dugu Xin's subordinates was at the moment, and it was not good to make a big deal out directly, so he lowered his head and said: "Daxingtai intends to show the subordinate of the Taiwan government to serve as the local licensing regulations, I happen to have this intention, and I have to give it to the non-divided, and I am really worried, and I don't dare to go into the Taiwan government to give the award and neglect to supervise, but I am afraid to accept it, hoping to get the master's person to take care of the matter, so that I can be able to repay the rank of the meritorious person." ”

The exercise and distribution of power has been one of the most sensitive issues since ancient times, although Li Tai and Duguxin have a close relationship, they are neither father and son, nor even official son-in-law, what should be said must be explained to ensure that there is no secret suspicion in each other's hearts.

First of all, I was already passive in this matter, and Daxingtai made this appointment in order to use its subordinate checks and balances to govern the state and county officials, and it was not specially placed by your side. At least that's how I see it, and I don't have any other thoughts about it at all, I just want to mess around with this time and quickly step down from this awkward position.

"Alas, it's hard for you. Fortunately, it is you, who have changed to other times and are young, I am afraid it is difficult for you to see things so clearly as Boshan. Daxingtai is indeed in a hurry this time, but Boshan, you have seen it clearly, let's work together, we will be able to quickly return from chaos to rectification and calm down the troubles. ”

Human nature has always been complicated, Dugu Xin is admittedly appreciative of Li Tai and values him very much, but he will not give up his authority and position at the moment, and all the things he has struggled for half his life to fulfill Li Tai, after hearing Li Tai's answer, he was also quite relieved in his heart, raised his hand and patted him on the shoulder and said in a deep voice.

Daxingtai's use of this plan can not be described as vicious, and it can even be said to have buried a long-term hidden danger for Weng and his son-in-law.

With his order to directly arrange Li Tai in the position of the heir to his power position, Dugu Xin's slightest estrangement from this son-in-law in the future may make him resentful.

At the same time, how to arrange Li Tai's authority and position under his command will also make Dugu Xin worried, if many important personnel are put into action without defense, then with Li Tai's talents and means, I am afraid that it will not take too long to actually empty or even replace himself.

But if you are wary everywhere, refusing to share a little actual power, and returning to the old path of mutual suspicion and drifting away, then what is the meaning of this marriage? Just to set up an imaginary enemy for yourself?

Dugu Xin has been thinking about how to crack the arrangement of Daxingtai recently, but no matter what he plans to do, the most important thing is to find out what Li Tai thinks.

Hearing that Li Tai was not obsessed with a temporary rise in power, and could still remain calm and reasonable, Dugu Xin was relieved, but felt that he had not seen the wrong person.

After criticizing Daxingtai, he said: "Putting aside other miscellaneous plans, I actually like Daxingtai to make this arrangement." Your career in Beizhou is well known, and I wanted to call you in for a job before, but I gave up because you had your own plan.

Although there have been some twists and turns, it has finally returned to its original wish. However, the situation in Longbian is not the same as that of Beizhou, and it has not been a short year for my subordinates to take charge of their own affairs, and it is inevitable that there will be a loss of harmony in the rash change of deployment, and suddenly everything is too harsh on you, and it is necessary to make a calm transition to ensure that things do not go wrong. ”

"Please rest assured at this point, although I am not strong and thirsty, but I also know that things are necessary and can be done. If the affairs of the other township can be handed over and transferred in a hurry, why bother to make the father-in-law and the talented people rule the border for many years? In this trip, we will only be clear about what we say, learn the law first, and never forcibly compete for the first place and see the evil masses. ”

As far as Longbian is concerned, Li Tai has not planned anything, and he really has no grand plans to go to Longyou to implement, knowing that Dugu Xin has his own order, so he will naturally not act arbitrarily and seize power and destroy. Anyway, this mess of personnel will be in his hands sooner or later!

Li Tai didn't have any objections or ideas here, Dugu Xin was very relieved, so he smiled and said: "The situation in Longbian is delicate, you need to return to the town within the first month, and if you have any personnel to transfer, then call into Beijing as soon as possible." ”

The situation in Longbian showed signs of bad last year, Dugu Xin had already reached a consensus with Daxingtai, but because of Li Tai's incident, Daxingtai's attitude changed slightly, and he probably felt that Yuwen Zhonghe could still be saved, so he postponed the announcement of some things, and sent an envoy to summon Yuwen Zhonghe.

"My subordinates are still unable to dispatch Beizhou, and they will go to the town alone first. If the real talent is valuable, it is not too late to send the message to the envoy. ”

After Li Tai heard this, he said that he didn't plan to lead too many troops to Long.

When Dugu Xin heard this, his face suddenly became more relaxed, so he smiled again: "Since this is the case, then you will stay in the mansion recently, and just check and sort out the materials allocated by the Taiwan government, and leave in batches without missing the travel date." ”

Li Tai shook his head a little embarrassed and said: "I'm afraid I can't obey my fate, the return date of this trip to Longbian is undecided, I want to escort the lady back to Huazhou first, and then return to Beijing to obey the order." ”

Dugu Xin was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and then smiled after a while: "It should be like this, it should be like this, I am full of things, but I ignore Shao Ai's deep affection." Fortunately, in Boshan, you have a connection with God, a thought, and go! ”
