Fear of leaks
Because Chi Zhongtian couldn't guess whether there were any of the "many things" that the emperor said he knew would be unfavorable to him.
"Your Majesty, you are the Son of Heaven, and of course the affairs of the world can't be hidden from your eyes. Chi Zhongtian said perfunctorily with a smile.
"Okay, Chi Aiqing, don't flatter me here, what's the matter, is Chi Aiqing willing to sell me a face." β
The emperor has already said this, so Chi Zhongtian is unwilling, and he has to be willing.
"Your Majesty, where are you, you have a will, and the minister will do his best. Chi Zhongtian replied.
"Okay, then I'll ask Chi Aiqing about this matter, but I can also give you a reminder. The Emperor said suddenly.
"Please show the emperor. Chi Zhongtian said.
"I am very suspicious of this Yanyuntang, because the only person who can organize such a liliang near the capital is Jin Chi of Yanyuntang, but there is no evidence, I have also sent people to investigate, but nothing has been found, I know that you and Jin Chi have a very good personal relationship, it is better for you to go and probe the mouth, maybe Jin Chi will tell you some unexpected news." β
Such a statement made Chi Zhongtian fall into a dilemma again.
This is clearly beating him, which means that Jin Chi can't get out of it, and if you deliberately cover him, you will also show your feet.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, the minister has written it down. Chi Zhongtian said with a smile.
"Okay, with Chi Aiqing's strong assistance, then I will be much more relieved about this matter, as long as you can get Zhao Weixian back for me, then I will reward you and reward you for adding an official to you!"
After thinking about it, the emperor didn't think about what he should reward Chi Zhongtian for a while, so he simply said that he would be added to the rank and knighthood.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, the minister suddenly had a few words, I want to talk to the emperor, I don't know if I should say it or not. Chi Zhongtian said hesitantly.
Chi Aiqing said it. The Emperor replied.
"Your Majesty, Zhao Weixian is just an official in the court, even if he runs away, why do you want to go to such great lengths to find him back?" asked Chi Zhongtian.
Asking such a thing, Chi Zhongtian is selfish, that is, he is still making a plan, that is, to see if he can use his own words to dispel the emperor's thoughts, although it is very manly, and even unrealistic, but after all, he should give it a try.
"Chi Aiqing, you are a martial arts person, and you still don't know much about the affairs of this imperial court, let's put it this way, this Zhao Weixian used to be the governor of the nine provinces, what kind of official is this? To put it simply, he is my stand-in, replacing me, to inspect and visit various provinces to see if there are any things that endanger the people of Limin, the society of the country, from the corruption of officials to the abduction and abduction of traders, these are all within his rights, and he also has three special rights, one is to see the official pressure at the first level, the second is to act cheaply, and the third is his music, which can be directly sent to me through secret channels, without having to go through anyone, Chi Aiqing, you said that such a person, such a person who knows the world well, a person whose mind is full of all kinds of secrets, can I let him get away with itοΌβ
The emperor said so much in one breath, and just as he was feeling thirsty, it happened that the eunuchs outside also brought tea.
Chi Zhongtian first poured a full cup for the emperor, and then poured it for himself as well.
In the past, Chi Zhongtian only knew that the official of the Governor of the Nine Provinces was very big, and even very special, but after all, he didn't have a direct understanding, and when he heard the emperor say this today, he could be regarded as understanding, and he was surprised, and he couldn't help but sigh secretly, this Zhao Weixian's right can also be said to be the peak, even if he is above 10,000 people under one person, it is not an exaggeration.
"I didn't expect Zhao Weixian to have such a big right. Chi Zhongtian sighed.
"Yes, so I must not let him escape, and besides, I have also heard some rumors that he has some unclear relationship with the thieves who made trouble in southern Xinjiang last time, although there is no evidence, but I have already believed it for five or six years, think about it, once he defects to the thieves, then the secrets of this court, won't all the secrets of the court be leaked out? If the thieves are allowed to master those secrets, the harm will not be one or two cities, it will be a disaster for the whole world. β
Hearing this, Chi Zhongtian couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.
These were questions he had never thought about.
The reason why he helped rescue Zhao Weixian in the first place was completely to fulfill his promise to cut off the water, and the reason why he fulfilled his promise to cut off the water was completely because he was moved by her actions, but in the final analysis, these are only related to Chi Zhongtian's personal feelings, as for the rest, Chi Zhongtian didn't think about it at all.
Of course, it can't be said that he doesn't think about it at all, he just wants to think about it, and he has to know so much.
Everything else is easy to say, but when the emperor said that once Zhao Weixian betrayed the imperial court and went to southern Xinjiang, that is, after cooperating with Xisuo Arui and them, it would really be a big disaster.
Use your brain to know that Zhao Weixian is in that position, and all kinds of secrets in his hands must be something that others dare not think of.
If everything is exposed, it's not too passive?
It's like two people in a martial arts competition, one person's move characteristics, move routines, and the other person knows all about it.
He regretted it.
Chi Zhongtian really regretted it now.
He began to blame himself, he shouldn't have been so impulsive, and he shouldn't have let Zhao Weixian go in a hurry.
I always feel that I have been in the rivers and lakes for so long, and I should be measured in my work, but through these things, Chi Zhongtian deeply realized that what he has done in some places is not enough, and it is even far behind.
"Chi Aiqing, Chi Aiqing?" The emperor found that Chi Zhongtian was in a daze, so he called him a few words.
"Ah, Your Majesty. Chi Zhongtian reacted suddenly and quickly replied.
"What's the matter, what are you thinking about in such a distraction?" the Emperor asked with a smile as he picked up his teacup.
"Your Majesty, the minister is thinking, this matter is indeed very important, the matter of southern Xinjiang, the minister is still vivid to this day, if Zhao Weixian is really in cahoots with them, the consequences will be unimaginable. β
"Chi Aiqing, that's what I said, that's what happened, that's why I want to ask you to come forward and do me a favor. β
"Don't dare, don't dare, Your Majesty, what you said is to torture the minister, don't worry, after the minister goes back, he will do his best to find Zhao Weixian's whereabouts!" This time, Chi Zhongtian sincerely agreed. When the emperor heard this, he nodded with satisfaction, and then said with a smile: "So, very good!"
