Previously, Yan Junqi had only been to the household department for a few days, and he dared to collect information on the book of the household department to impeach him, the general.

But Fan Xiao and He Taishi both knew that it was just that Hubu Shangshu didn't expect the newcomer to dare to be so bold for a while, so that he couldn't really suppress a little newcomer.

The uncontrollable in Emperor Hong'an's mouth refers to the crown prince.

Since Emperor Hong'an fell and was injured, he has become more urgent than ever to find a team for the crown prince.

Six departments, nine temples and five prisons, in the Korean and Chinese army, all of them are trustworthy people.

But most of them are old ministers.

The old minister will eventually leave, and the new emperor will inevitably be more willing to use young people when he ascends the throne in the future.

How to transition, whether there is time to temper, Emperor Hong'an will always be a little anxious in private.

Sure enough, Emperor Hong'an sighed, "In a blink of an eye, we are old." ”

Fan Xiao and He Taishi didn't say anything.

When Emperor Hong'an was young, he liked the bold and talented and rebellious temperament the most.

He is such a character, as long as the other party is talented, he dares to use it, he is never afraid of the ministers bullying the king, others are strong, he must be stronger, he has enough confidence to control the power of the world, and control jackals, tigers and leopards.

But the prince, it's too gentle.

Mild is good, but it's not good.

Especially Emperor Hong'an knew that if he didn't sweep away the internal and external troubles as soon as possible, the stall left to the prince would be difficult to manage.

There is a strong enemy in the north that is difficult to tame at the beginning, the border is not stable, the internal cause of successive years of war, the accumulation of disadvantages has emerged, the contradiction between the DPRK and the Chinese military, the contradiction between the civil minister and the noble, and someone needs to be able to balance the deterrence......

He lacks people, it is difficult to govern the country with mediocrity, he is too capable, and he is afraid that the prince will not be able to control it.

Emperor Hong'an's eyes couldn't help but turn to the young people in the court, and he was the most satisfied, and the most satisfied was He Chengye, and in the last three palace examinations, the most satisfied was the list of the previous session, and He Songzhi and Yan Junqi of this session.

But he already has He Chengye, whether to add another He Songzhi to the prince's eyes, he hesitated. He Taishi strongly opposed this, and threatened Emperor Hong'an with his resignation and old man, and he would never let a family occupy the court, for this reason, Fan Xiao knew that He Chengye and He Song had a good character, and it was not easy to intervene in the matter of employing people.

He Taishi is too stubborn, he is in the court, he is not allowed to hold real power with his son, although He Chengye has passed the top prize, he is either an expatriate or an idleman. He Songzhi can be a little better, but he will also have to be tempered in the future.

As for Yan Junqi...... There are as many advantages as there are disadvantages.

Fan Xiao asked, "How is the Ministry of Industry?" ”

Emperor Hong'an shook his head.

Fan Xiao: "The Ministry of War? ”

Emperor Hong'an didn't move.

The military department is an option.

Fan Xiao is also idle in the military department, and he can keep an eye on it for him.

Master He suddenly said: "The minister has a place to exercise. ”

Emperor Hong'an: "Oh? Which yamen? ”

He Taishi: "Northwest." ”

The author has something to say:

Emperor Hong'an: Let me see, where to put it?

Part Six: Look at me, look at me!

He Taishi: Northwest.

Part 6: ???? Or is it not my own?!

Chapter 246: Goals

"Northwest?" Emperor Hong'an was silent for a moment and shook his head, "Let's let him exercise in the capital first." ”

He Taishi wanted to persuade again, but Emperor Hong'an didn't want to listen anymore and let them retreat.

Fan Xiao and He Taishi came out, and He Taishi rarely took the initiative to stop Fan Xiao.

Fan Xiao was surprised, "Chengye is in trouble?" ”

He Taishi: "He has a personal grudge with Dingshan, and I don't agree with His Majesty letting him supervise the army." ”

Fan Xiao has no right to speak, He Chengye is his son-in-law, and Wei Dingshan is his son-in-law, but the relationship is very poor.

The two of them have one overseer and the other is the commander, Fan Xiaochai, but if He Chengye's temper is a little worse, the two of them have to fight every day.

But the two of them can't help but run in, they can see that Emperor Hong'an hopes that in the future, they will have a commander of the army, an auxiliary government, and assist the prince inside and outside, if the two of them do not run in well in the northwest, Emperor Hong'an will consider replacing one of them.

Taishi He sighed: "But this is all a trivial matter, and it can be regarded as a workout for the two of them by His Majesty." I am afraid that I will be in arrears for many years, and the peace will last for a long time, and the soldiers will be slack, and if there is a cold winter, the barbarians will have a strange movement. ”

Fan Xiao's expression was tense, "It's winter again this year?" ”

He Taishi: "In the past hundred years in the Northwest, there has never been a warm winter for five consecutive years, and this year is the fifth year, you and I should not be lucky." ”

Fan Xiao: "Did the county guard of Dingbei County send a grain harvest report?" ”

Taishi He snorted angrily, "Last year's one hasn't been delivered yet!" I think the county guard in Suling has also come to an end. ”

Fan Xiao sighed: "He also drove ducks to the shelves." ”

A county in Dingbei County guards the entire barbarian area, and the area under its control is calculated as two or three counties in the south, but the property is so scarce that the whole county is inhabited by either barbarians or soldiers, and the people are all military households, and the situation in other counties in Daqi is not the same at all.

Emperor Hong'an set up a county and the Manchu Dynasty agreed, but who to let be the county guard became a big problem.

Those who dare to go, their qualifications are too shallow, and Emperor Hong'an is not at ease.

Emperor Hong'an is relieved, the position on duty is extremely important, and he can't move it easily.

Most of the rest did not dare to go.

I am not afraid of hardship, poverty, and difficulty in making political achievements, but I am afraid that the area of Dingbei County is too special, and the people under its jurisdiction are too special.

At that time, the loss of life will be small, and Daqi will be a sinner for the ages if he falls into the war again.

Under the stalemate, it was later the old minister Zhang Ju who took the initiative to ask for help.

It's a pity that less than half a year after he took office, he died in Dingbei County due to the difficulty of healing due to water and soil adaptation.

Emperor Hong'an was heartbroken.

Then choose people, and first provoke those who have lived in the Northland.

In the end, I chose to choose and choose, and I chose Su Lingzhong.

He was born in a family of military attachés, and later took the literary road in the scientific examination, and his hometown was far north, and his character was not brave enough, and he was more than cautious.

Emperor Hong'an thought that he couldn't achieve anything, and it was not a problem to ensure the stability of one party.

The situation is indeed as Emperor Hong'an expected, and there are no problems in Dingbei County at present.

But this doesn't mean that Su Lingzhong can do it, it's suitable, just willing, when he left, he was in tears and crying.

He went to Dingbei County alone, without a single family member, with the determination to die and die for the country, he said goodbye to Emperor Hong'an, and almost killed Emperor Hong'an.

Fan Xiao and He Taishi both knew that Su Lingzhong was just a transition, and Emperor Hong'an had been picking candidates, but they hadn't been selected yet.

Fan Xiao has led troops to fight in the north for more than ten years, so he naturally knows the situation in the north, and sighed: "I'll write a letter to the mountain first." ”

He Taishi nodded.

At present, they can only wake up Wei Dingshan and He Chengye first, and tell them to quickly release their previous suspicions, train well, and increase their vigilance.

Fan Xiao asked, "But why did you mention that Yan Hanlin was transferred to the northwest?" ”

Emperor Hong'an wanted to train Yan Junqi to be the crown prince's team, and they had already seen it from the palace examination that he would definitely stay in Beijing and enter the sixth ministry in the future.

Taishi He sighed lightly and said with a smile: "Can't you see that this son is not suitable for Jingzhong?" ”

Fan Xiao couldn't see it anywhere, but Yan Junqi's insuitability was also his preciousness, "Young man." ”

Fan Xiao knew that He Taishi's character of not giving up until he reached his goal, and refused for Yan Junqi: "The northwest is difficult and complicated, he is a young man in his early twenties, no matter how capable he is, he can't cope with it, and he will die if he is not careful in the past, so choose other safe candidates." ”

He Taishi sighed: "It's not that I take a fancy to him, but Chengye has repeatedly mentioned the sweetheart in his mouth who has lived up to his life." ”

Fan Xiao was stunned, and ignored Taishi He's rare ridicule, "The emperor and grandson read that brother?" ”

Master He: "What, you also have an impression?" ”

Fan Xiao remembered the scene in the General's Mansion that day, and said with a smile: "On the one hand, that kid is indeed a little interesting." How did Chengye know him? ”

When Taishi He heard this, he joked: "He has a very personal relationship with Li Xiu and Zhang Chang brothers, and he has unimpeded access to the Northern Army and the Xiao Cavalry Army, and he is also doing business with the two armies. ”

Fan Xiao was really taken aback this time.

Zhang Chang and Zhang Xiao are familiar with him, especially Zhang Chang, who is decisive in killing, brave in battle, and is a tiger general at a young age, and can often win more with less, but it is a pity to use soldiers to develop that temper.

Li Xiu was not brought out by him, he was more than respectful, but he had no personal friendship, and he had always been alone and kept a distance from them.

He had the impression that Li Xiu was actually slippery and very difficult to communicate.

How did a small businessman have a personal relationship with them?

Seeing that he was in a daze with a shocked expression like when he was young, Taishi He couldn't help laughing, "Don't you think that the Xiao Cavalry Army and the Northern Frontier Army have been crying to the military department for money in the past few years, crying thunder and rain?" ”

Fan Xiao: "......"

Fan Xiao couldn't believe it, "You mean, it's all because of that kid?" ”

He Taishi shook his head, "Yes and no." ”

Fan Xiao: "Don't sell it." ”

Master He: "You come with me." ”

He mysteriously took Fan Xiao to the household department to check the archives of Longxing County, Shuozhou County and Cangyuan County on the south side of Longxing County.

"You look at the grain flow in Longxing and Cangyuan, and then you look at the number of new grain merchants in the two counties in the past five years, and the number of new merchants."

Fan Xiao flipped through the files, and the more he flipped through them, the more frightened he became.

He Taishi said: "Do you still remember the business route that Yan Junqi answered when he took the exam?" ”

Fan Xiao: "You mean? ”
