In April, good news came back from the Lingnan border again.

"Thirteenth brother, Thirteenth brother."

Yinzhen, who quickly entered the palace with the news, found Yinxiang in the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

He placed the victory report in front of Yinxiang and said with a smile, "Look what this is."

Yinxiang raised his eyebrows, and without even looking at the victory report on the table, he directly guessed, "Did Brother Ten conquer another place?"

Yinzhen nodded immediately, "Not just one, but two."

He spread out the victory report, pointed to the words Nanzhang (Laos) and Siam (Thailand) on it, and said, "When my tenth brother was fighting Nanzhang, he asked Nian Gengyao to pick Siam as well."

Of these two countries, Siam became a vassal state of the Qing Dynasty during the Shunzhi period, and Nanzhang has not yet been affiliated with the Qing Dynasty. However, it doesn’t matter whether it is affiliated or not, as they have all become a prefecture of the Qing Dynasty.

The corners of Yinxiang's mouth curled up. He tried hard to control it, but it was really hard for him to control it.

"Hey, Brother Ten and Nian Gengyao, both are amazing, they deserve rewards!"

The territory of the Qing Dynasty expanded again. How could he not be happy as the emperor?

Yinxiang was smiling happily at this moment, but when his eyes fell on the few words after the good news, the corners of his mouth froze.

"Wait a minute!"

He put away his smile, picked up the letter on the table and read it. He was silent for a while before looking up at Yinzhen in disbelief, "Fourth brother, they care about beatings but not management?!"

He's going to die. He arranged for Nian Gengyao to go out with the tenth brother. Wasn't the purpose to let the tenth brother fight with peace of mind while Nian Gengyao stayed in the rear and temporarily take over the management of the conquered territory? Why did both of them go out to cause trouble?

What about the territory? Just ignore it! ?

"Uh ... Nian Gengyao has been led astray by the tenth brother."

Yinzhen felt a little embarrassed as he spoke. He forgot that Nian Gengyao was still young in this life and was at an age where it was easy to be led astray. Moreover, his tenth brother was rather abnormal, so he influenced Nian Gengyao.

"Now one of them is going to fight Burma, and the other is going to fight Cambodia."

These two people have already decided to conquer all the small countries south of the Qing Dynasty. Regardless of whether the other party is a vassal state of the Qing Dynasty or not, they must be completely turned into one of the prefectures of the Qing Dynasty.

Although this is good, it puts the court in a difficult position.

Yinxiang's temples were throbbing, and he said with a bitter face, "Looks like I have to look for talents again."

No matter how many talented people there are, the territory will continue to expand and there will be more and more territories to manage.

Their Qing Dynasty is now short of people again.

Yinxiang frowned, feeling that the burden on his shoulders was increasing.

"Okay," Yinzhen patted Yinxiang on the shoulder, "Khan Ama has already popularized compulsory education. Now there are many people who can read and write. We are not short of talents."

Once a group of people are sent out, there are always others who can take over.

"That's not wrong, but it still takes some time and effort to get used to each other."

Yinxiang smiled helplessly, but it didn’t matter. The Qing Dynasty had the time to waste.

After thinking for a while, he said, "Oh, by the way, Fourth Brother, talk more with Eighth Brother and gather all the talents from the previous life. Don't let them be missed."

If he was able to shine and make contributions in his previous life, he will definitely be able to make more political achievements in this life.

Yinxiang believed it firmly.

He was eager to recruit talents. Yinzhen understood his mentality and nodded immediately: "Don't worry, I will ask my eighth brother to search for talents after I return. I will definitely not let go of any talent!"

Not to mention that Thirteenth Brother had this idea, even he himself had thought so.

Having made up his mind, Yinzhen did not stay in the palace for long. He just said a few words to Yinxiang and then left the palace.

Instead of returning to the Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of Works, he went straight to the Ministry of Justice to find Yinsi.

"Eighth brother."

Yinsi, who was dealing with a backlog of files, looked up and saw his fourth brother coming over.

He looked up in surprise, after all, his fourth brother didn't come to the Ministry of Justice often.

"Why are you here, Fourth Brother? Is there something you want me to do?"

Based on his understanding of Fourth Brother, he was definitely assigned a mission to him.

Yinzhen pursed his lips and smiled, then nodded without hesitation, "Indeed."

He came here to arrange work for Yinsi.

This is called not visiting the temple for no reason.

"Brother, tell me, what do you want me to do?"

Yinsi was in charge of the Ministry of Justice. Although he had a lot of official business to do, it was not as much as the other six ministries. With his ability, handling the affairs of the Ministry of Justice was an extremely simple matter. So to sum up, he was quite free.

Since I have some free time, it’s not a big deal to help my fourth brother do something.

Yinsi looked at Yinzhen leisurely, waiting for Yinzhen to give him a task.

Yinzhen was also unequivocal and said bluntly: "Thirteenth brother said that the court is short of people now, and asked us to collect all the talents that appeared in the previous life and let them continue to shine."

"Talent?" Yinsi raised his eyebrows, "That's not difficult."

"Then I'll leave it to you. Remember to round up my subordinates as well as the capable men under my eldest, second, and third brothers. Don't leave any of them behind."

Yinzhen had great confidence in Yinsi's ability. He firmly believed that his eighth brother must remember clearly the former team of them brothers, so if he asked him to look for them, he would definitely be able to find them all.

This firm trust left Yinsi speechless for a moment.

He wanted to refute, but it was difficult to do so.

If he doesn't refute, it will seem like he is always staring at his brothers.

——Although he did keep an eye on his brothers.

After a moment of silence, Yinsi chose not to refute, after all, he couldn't refute it.

He said, "Since the court is short of people, I will arrange for someone to find them after I finish dealing with the Ministry of Justice."

Fortunately, he did remember clearly all the talents from the eldest prince's party, the crown prince's party, the fourth prince's party and his own eighth prince's party, otherwise it would be really difficult to find them at this time.

Sighing inwardly, Yinsi felt that he had taken on a big project.

After rolling his eyes, he asked Yinzhen again, "Fourth brother, what's the situation with Tenth Brother now?"

As the leader of the Baye Party, he is extremely concerned about the members of the Baye Party.

When Yinsi asked, Yinzhen told him about Yinsi's battle record and amazing moves without hesitation.

"Tenth brother, you only care about fighting and not managing now, otherwise Thirteenth brother wouldn't have to worry about no one using him."

If it weren't for the purpose of transferring officials to take over those new territories, the court would not be so short of people.

Yinsi covered his face and said, "This Old Tenth, I guess I have to write a letter to talk to him."

"But, that Nian Gengyao, didn't he learn something wrong?!"

He had clearly been writing letters to them crazily to complain about his tenth brother and report him, but now he's imitating his tenth brother and messing around everywhere, not doing any serious work at all.

Yinsi was very angry and speechless, he just stroked his forehead silently.

"There's nothing we can do. Tenth brother has set a bad example. Nian Gengyao wasn't a very serious person to begin with."

If it was Zhang Tingyu who was with the tenth brother, he would not be led astray.

But who made it possible for Nian Gengyao to follow the tenth brother? It was only a matter of time before he was led astray.
