die if you don't rebel

Chapter 152
Hearing this,

the emperor asked:

"What do you mean by chatting?"

"But the pillars of every country need qualifications... What I mean by this minister is to let him be a local official first, let him hone his skills, and then promote him to the capital after he has made some political achievements. , can also be convincing.”

As soon as he finished speaking,
The imposing prince then said:
"Father, I think that in today's troubled times, what the Great Xia Dynasty needs most is a talent like Jiang Duming. Since he stands out, I think he should be given a big official position, otherwise the heart of this talented boy will be chilled." , and will not serve the Great Xia Dynasty loyally in the future."

The emperor thought about it when he heard his words.

Then the emperor looked at Xia Qiuluo, and asked her with a smile:
"Qiu Luo, what's your suggestion?"

Xia Qiuluo said:

"I agree with the Prime Minister's proposal just now."

That's all he said, nothing else was mentioned.

The emperor nodded,

In his heart, he was inclined to what the prime minister said just now, that the young mind is inherently unstable, and there are too many restless factors, which need to be cultivated and honed.

Then he looked at the other civil and military officials for advice:
"Everyone likes to chat, what do you mean?"

These few officials began to talk about each other, some of them supported the prime minister, and some supported the prince.

And those who supported the prince accounted for six people.

There are a total of eight ministers, six of whom are supporting the prince.

The prince couldn't help the corners of his eyes showing color, so he hit the iron while it was hot and said to the emperor:
"Father, the Prime Minister's words are of course very reasonable, but I still feel that special treatment should be given in special times.
Right now, the Great Xia Dynasty is in danger, with the Xiongnu in the west and Beiliang in the north, they are staring at our Great Xia Dynasty, and it is very unstable.

There is a shortage of talents in the imperial court.
If you continue to cultivate talents step by step like the prime minister, it will only seem a bit pedantic and unrealistic. "

"Um?"

The emperor was a little unhappy.

In his heart, he supported the prime minister's proposal. When his son said this, it was tantamount to saying that he was pedantic.

He turned cold and said to his son:
"As the crown prince, you still haven't changed your temperament of eager for quick success, and I don't think your proposal is very clever.

This Jiang Duming is certainly a talent,
but……

I ask you,
If you rashly give him an important official position, what if he has two minds and a dirty background, and is going to be detrimental to our Great Xia Dynasty? "

"this……"

The prince, that is, the prince in the emperor's mouth, was speechless.

The reason why he proposed to give Jiang Duming an important official position was actually based on his own interests.
Because he knows very well,
Jiang Duming has now been assigned to his own power. Giving him an important official position is equivalent to giving himself a very important official position and being at his mercy.It is very beneficial to the development of one's own power.

But this question from the emperor,

Make his proposal immediately untenable.

At this time, the emperor said to him again:
"You should really learn from your Jiumei. Governing the country and the world is not based on quick success and quick benefits, but on a strategic plan. Everything starts from the overall situation."

"……yes!"

Although the prince was very unconvinced, he didn't dare to say a word after being taught by his father.

Anger flashed out of the corner of his eye,

All along,
Father and emperor are partial to Lao Jiu, but it's a pity that she is a daughter, if not, the prince's position may have changed hands long ago, and it is not his own.

This made him even more determined. He wanted to get rid of Princess Nine as soon as possible.

It was only then that the emperor turned his eyes away from the prince with a feeling of resentment.
Seeing that there were no constructive comments, he made a decision:
"I'm determined. Just follow what the prime minister said, and arrange a local official for Jiang Duming. Of course, he can't choose a very small place to manage."

After some consideration,
The emperor said again:

"I thought about it and asked him to go to Xizhou to be a parent officer... Xizhou is adjacent to the Xiongnu, and there is just a lack of a decent talent there. Letting him go is the best training, what do you think?"

Xia Qiuluo said:

"I think Father's decision is very reasonable."

Hearing the nine princesses' answer, the emperor was very happy and couldn't help laughing.

Then the prime minister also agreed.

The prince saw that he was unhappy with his father, and he didn't dare to object anymore, so he could only follow his father's words:
"Father is wise, I agree!"

The prince made a statement.

The ministers of the prince's party also expressed their agreement.

At this time,
The eunuch in a yellow jacket came in, came under the holy throne, and reported to the emperor:

"Your Majesty, Jiang Duming has been found."

"Oh? You are efficient in doing things."

"It just happened to happen. If I was a step late, I don't know when I will be able to find him."

"Then let him in."

"Yes!"

Jiang Duming was still outside the Jinluan Hall, admiring the size and grandeur of the palace,
He saw the man in the yellow mandarin jacket come out and let him in. Before he went in, he specially reminded him of the things he should pay attention to.

Jiang Duming walked into the Golden Luan Hall nervously.

Entering the palace for the first time,

first face to face,
Jiang Duming was somewhat nervous.

But until he saw Xia Qiuluo was there, he couldn't help but feel relieved.

When he came before the emperor, Jiang Duming had no choice but to salute respectfully.

After the ceremony.

Jiang Duming saw that the ministers in the hall were all looking at him like a monkey.

At this time, the emperor also saw Jiang Duming's appearance clearly.

Jiang Duming was so handsome:
"I really didn't expect that there is such a genius in my Great Xia Dynasty. Not only is it both civil and military, it is the best in the world. Even this appearance is also first-class."

Jiang Duming said:

"According to Your Majesty, this handsome young man is not worthy of all-round talents in civil and military affairs. Only ugly men are worthy of talents?"

"..."

The emperor was taken aback,
Then he laughed out loud.

Including the nine princesses, no one expected that Jiang Duming would be silent with the current saint.

The emperor was amused by Jiang Duming's humor,
I can't help but like Jiang Duming very much.

But after he laughed, he returned to the subject and said solemnly:

"Jiang Duming, the fact that your poem suppressed the prince of Beiliang has been widely circulated in the capital, and I am very happy that you have won glory for my Great Xia Dynasty.

I heard that you are the new leader of the martial arts,

Needless to say, your martial arts are also extremely powerful, so I want to reuse you and plan to send you to Xizhou as a parent officer. What do you think? "

"Xizhou?"

"Exactly."

Jiang Duming thought to himself,

Isn't Xizhou the place where the Kunlun Gate is located?
Now is not the time to think about these things, Jiang Duming has no right to object, so he can only follow the emperor's words:
"Thank you for your grace, everything will follow the arrangement of the Holy One."

"Ah."

The emperor nodded in satisfaction, and then said:

"Then you should set off as soon as possible and rush to Xizhou to take up the post. I will issue a letter of appointment later."

"The villain kneels down to thank the Holy Grace!"

……

Jiang Duming came out of the palace holding a letter of appointment in both hands.

Before leaving, he didn't even have time to say hello to Princess Nine.

of course,

Even if he could, Jiang Duming would not say hello rashly,

because he doesn't know,

Other than Xia Qiuluo, who are Xia Qiuluo's people in the hall... I have to be careful to hide my relationship with the Ninth Princess.
