Reborn as a bride, pretending to be virtuous, the prince held his waist and regretted

Censor Li stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, I want to impeach Xie Jin, a member of the Imperial Guard, for not doing his job properly and seeking personal gain. He wants to be transferred to the North to lead the troops."

"Although Xie Jin was a military candidate and had studied the art of war, he had never fought in battle and had no experience in deploying troops. For a man like him to attempt to lead an army is simply disregarding human life."

Marquis Changning in the hall was startled, and Zhou Jin outside was also stunned.

It must be that Xie Jin used his connections to go to the north to lead troops to fight, but was caught by Censor Li.

It could also be that Li Guojiu had ordered this, purely to cause trouble for Xie Jin. Anyway, Li Guojiu would not let Xie Jin achieve what he wanted to do.

Xie Jin, who was standing not far from Zhou Jin, was also dumbfounded.

His whereabouts are very secretive, how did Censor Li know?

Xie Jin stepped out of the line and knelt on the ground with a plop. "Your Majesty, I entered the official career through the military examination. I practiced martial arts diligently and studied the art of war. I hope that one day I can make great achievements and expand the territory for our Kang Dynasty."

"I do not have any experience in leading troops. I can learn from the generals. One day, I can become a general who leads troops and protects the people. I have no selfish motives. Your Majesty, please understand."

In fact, these things are all unspoken rules.

No matter what kind of official position you want, you may get it by using some connections.

Xie Jin just wanted to lead the army to fight, and he had no intention of committing treason. Was Li Yushi making a mountain out of a molehill by saying this?

"Xie Jin, come forward." Emperor Kangping said in a deep voice.

The eunuch shouted, asking Xie Jin to come to the palace.

Xie Jin walked to the hall respectfully and knelt on the ground. "Your Majesty, I am speaking from the heart. I want to become a general who helps your Majesty expand the territory and protect the people in the border areas. That is why I invited Lord Wang from the Ministry of War to drink tea several times and expressed my thoughts. As for whether it will succeed or not, it still needs to be studied by the superiors in the Ministry of War. Censor Li's evaluation of me may have many misunderstandings. Your Majesty and the court officials please look into it."

Lord Wang, the assistant minister of the Ministry of War, stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, what Lord Xie said is true. When we were drinking tea, Lord Xie expressed to me that he wanted to go to the northern border for training and to be tempered in a difficult place. However, soldiers are the most important. I only nominated him and was preparing to discuss it with my colleagues. I have not yet decided whether to let Lord Xie go to the northern border."

"There are other people who have been ordered to transfer, not just Lord Xie. Censor Li's impeachment against Lord Xie alone is a bit exaggerated and intentional."

Emperor Kangping frowned slightly, thinking of Xie Jin's past achievements and his style of doing things, and guessed something. "I will investigate what happened. If Lord Xie really wants to go to the bitter cold land of the north, it shows his heart to serve his country."

Censor Li said in a deep voice: "How can we take the transfer of soldiers lightly? This is a unified arrangement by the Ministry of War. Not everyone can go wherever they want. Otherwise, wouldn't it be a mess?"

Emperor Kangping nodded and said, "What Censor Li said makes sense. I will investigate it later and make a decision."

After the court session ended, Xie Jin stood up from the ground and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

Marquis Changning winked at Zhou Jin.

Zhou Jin stepped forward and asked, "Brother-in-law Xie, do you really want to go to the north?"

Xie Jin sighed, "I am in the capital. Although I am also a fifth-rank general of the Imperial Guards, the people below me don't buy into my account because of Uncle Li. If I stay in the capital, I have no way out."

Zhou Jin raised an eyebrow. "Xi Ling told me last time that she suggested that Brother-in-law Xie be more cautious. It seems that Brother-in-law Xie feels that it is not appropriate. We are overthinking it. Since you want to go to the North, you can tell His Majesty directly."

"Learn from the general, don't lead the troops right away. After all, there are many things to learn about leading troops. Brother-in-law Xie, please don't just talk about military strategy on paper, and don't underestimate the enemy."

"Thank you, brother-in-law Zhou." Xie Jin smiled, "Congratulations on your recovery, Prince."

"Thanks to you." Zhou Jin said politely, cupping his hands, "Xie has something else to do, so I'll leave first."

"Okay, brother-in-law goes first." Xie Jin bowed, feeling a chill down his spine.

Looking at Zhou Jin's leaving back, Xie Jin's eyes showed suspicion. According to the power of Changning Marquis Mansion, Zhou Jin could go to other departments and did not need to stay in the Agricultural Department.

But Zhou Jin was different. He just stayed in the Agricultural Department, dealing with some agricultural books and farmers all day long.

Although the corn yield is high and we have received rewards from His Majesty, it is still difficult to achieve results.

He was very puzzled.

If he had Zhou Jin's background and family experience, he would definitely become an official in the Ministry of Personnel.

He controls the promotion and assessment of others, and even if they are at the same level, they will be one level higher than other officials.

In addition, you can also make more connections through this method and lay the foundation for your future success.

After Emperor Kangping sent people to investigate, he found that there was nothing wrong with Censor Li's impeachment, and also found that there was nothing excessive in Xie Jin's arrangements.

He personally called Xie Jin in and said, "Xie Jin, aren't you doing a great job with the Imperial Guards?"

Xie Jin certainly couldn't say that, as he was now being sidelined and seemed very incompetent.

In addition, in the capital, everyone was under the influence of Li Guojiu, and Xie Jin always felt constrained.

If he left the capital and went to the victorious north to lead troops to fight, he would surely gain military merit.

In the army, Li Guojiu's hand could not reach anything. For Xie Jin, the sky was high and the birds could fly freely, and the sea was wide and the fish could leap freely.

"Your Majesty, my ancestors also made their fortune through military achievements, and we have inherited martial arts from our family. Therefore, I have always wanted to lead troops to fight and become a general in charge of the three armies since I was a child."

"But I also know that if I want to achieve this, I must be down-to-earth and take one step at a time. I can't be too ambitious, and I can't be hesitant. I can do it in the Imperial Guard, but I always feel that it is far from my ideal."

"I am still young, and I want to take advantage of my courageous and high-spirited age to dare to think, fight and work hard, and move towards my ideal step by step."

Emperor Kangping nodded after hearing this and said, "Since you want to go to the battlefield so much, then you will be a fifth-rank general Xuanwei, serving under Marshal Sun, waiting for his orders."

"There is nothing trivial on the battlefield, and there is nothing idle in the military camp. When you go in and out of the military camp, there are many things you don't understand, so don't give orders rashly. Learn more, see more, think more, and have enough experience before you can lead troops to fight."

When Xie Jin heard this, he immediately knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Emperor Kang Ping, "Thank you, Your Majesty. I will fight bravely and protect the people of Kangguo in the future."

Xie Jin was very satisfied this time! He hurried home to pack his luggage and head to the northern border.

Zhou Jin returned home in the afternoon and told Gu Xiling what happened in the court today.

Gu Xiling was slightly startled. "I never thought that Uncle Li's actions would backfire and actually help Xie Jin."

Originally, even if Xie Jin tried his best, he might not be able to achieve his goal.

But Li Guojiu asked Li Yushi to make the matter clear, with the original intention of criticizing Xie Jin for being indecisive and unfit for important tasks.

Unexpectedly, Emperor Kangping had other plans for Xie Jin.
