Father wants to move the northwest, so he needs someone to help him keep an eye on the northwest.

Liu Zhao said to keep half and wait for Master Li's response.

Master Li poured himself a drink, lifted the teapot to refill the cup, he sneered and said, Your Highness means, let the old man watch the northwest for His Majesty? Heh!

Liu Zhao laughed, Northwest matters are of great importance, and improper handling may even endanger the foundation of the country. We must be cautious about matters in the northwest. Why don't you and I join forces to follow the example of the Jiangnan Metropolitan Governor's Mansion and prompt Father to establish a Metropolitan Governor's Office in the Northwest? The government is in charge of the military administration in the Northwest. Mr. Li is willing to be the governor of the Northwest Metropolitan Government.

Master Li's breathing became heavy, and his face changed again and again.

The governor of the Northwest Metropolitan Government?

Liu Zhao nodded solemnly, Yes!

The governor of the capital, the official of the frontier.

Although there is no reality of cracking the soil to seal the marquis, there is the name of cracking the soil to seal the marquis.

Under the rule of the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, all military and political affairs are handled by the Metropolitan Governor.

Although he is a local official, he has great power.

Like the governor of Jiangnan Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, he was not willing to change it if he was given a Zhongshu order. I am willing to stay in the position of the chief governor and stay in love.

However, after Emperor Wende completely resolved the internal worries of the imperial court, he would definitely replace a group of Jiangnan officials.

Jiangnan will move first before the northwest.

When the imperial court moves south of the Yangtze River, there are not as many concerns as in the northwest.

There are heavy troops stationed in the northwest. If they are not treated carefully, they may cause mutiny. The consequences could be disastrous.

There are no heavy troops in the south of the Yangtze River, and Liu Zhao was ordered to build a navy.

The imperial court wants to move Jiangnan, and there is almost no military resistance.

The greatest resistance comes from the local tyrants and clan forces in the south of the Yangtze River.

These resistances, under the suppression of the imperial court, will be resolved sooner or later.

Mr. Li thought of Jiangnan from the northwest, and he said: I can try to go to the governor's mansion in the south of the Yangtze River, why go to the northwest to eat sand.

Liu Zhao sarcastically said, Is your lord dreaming? Jiangnan is rich, and many of your lord's disciples work in Jiangnan. Sending your lord to Jiangnan is not a return to the mountain. These years, your lord has never managed the Northwest, and you can't talk about it in the Northwest. Get connected.

Putting the adults in the northwest will make the father feel at ease.

Master Li laughed, and said in a cold voice after laughing: You and Your Majesty, your father and son, there really isn't a single good person in your Liu family.

Liu Zhao smiled softly, My lord wants to be an official of the Liu family, and if you eat the food of the Liu family, you have to submit to the control of the Liu family. Is it possible that your lord wants to rebel?

It takes three years for a scholar to rebel. I don't have the ability to rebel, so don't let me take the blame. Master Li snorted coldly.

Liu Zhao crossed his arms and asked indifferently, What do you think about my proposal?

Master Li had a half-smile, Does His Majesty want to stare at the northwest, or does His Highness want to stare at the northwest?

Liu Zhao raised his eyebrows and smiled, Whoever you think is whoever you are.

Your Highness is ambitious!

A prince without ambition is not worthy of being a prince. Liu Zhao said naturally.

Master Li asked again: Does Madam Zhao know about this?

Liu Zhao smiled viciously, Guess!

Master Li was annoyed.

Your Highness is trying to lure this old man into your boat, but he refuses to show enough sincerity. Do you think this old man is stupid?

Liu Zhao had an indifferent attitude, Your Excellency, you can refuse to board my thief ship, you just wait for the emperor to chop you into pieces, and you will be infamous forever. On the other hand, if you get on my highness's thief ship, you may have a chance to be famous forever , to re-enter the court and become a generation of famous ministers.

Mr. Li heheed twice, When you get on your thief ship, your head may be decapitated, your home will be confiscated and exiled, and you will die with regret.

Liu Zhao smiled, My lord, you can take a gamble, whether you will be decapitated in the end, or your name will last forever.

Scholars seek fame in front of and behind them.

Especially the name behind him, it is impossible not to care.

Want to know how history books will evaluate themselves?

What is your position in history?

Can it be compared to the seniors, and can it suppress the juniors?

If he left the court sadly, he would hardly have a good evaluation in the history books, and even people in later generations would not mention him at all.

One of the great regrets in life.

However, hold your head and work with Liu Zhao?

Master Li narrowed his eyes, stared at Liu Zhao in front of him, and suddenly said: This old man wants to see Mrs. Zhao.

Liu Zhao: ...

MMP, His Highness's credit is not as good as that of a kissing wife, it's a miserable mess.

As a prince and the eldest son of the direct line, he should reflect on himself after suffering such misery.

Where did it go wrong, or who did it offend? For example, did you offend the author?

Liu Zhao said to Lord Li: My wife is not feeling well, so it is inconvenient to see you. Also, my highness and my wife are one body.

Master Li laughed, Sorry, I won't make any decisions until I see Madam Zhao.

Liu Zhao bared his teeth.

Master Li is very happy, seeing Liu Zhao deflated, it's really refreshing.

Liu Zhao narrowed his eyes, Why does your lord insist on seeing your wife?

Master Li stroked his beard, I have my own reasons. Is it possible that Your Highness is afraid?

Provocative method?

Liu Zhao smiled contemptuously, If you want to see your wife, you can't just want to confirm what my highness thinks, and judge whether my highness wants to use you as cannon fodder.

Will His Highness let this old man be cannon fodder?

Liu Zhao sneered, His Royal Highness can let you meet your wife. But after meeting, you can't help it.

Mr. Li was not afraid, stroked his beard, and said: The old man is waiting for Mrs. Chao.

Liu Zhao walked away with a flick of his sleeves.

...

Seeing Liu Zhao coming back, Gu Jiu waved at him and asked, Have we finished talking?

Liu Zhao sat down beside her and said, He wants to see you.

see me?

Gu Jiu was surprised, Why does he want to see me?

Liu Zhao put on a serious face, The old fox probably guessed the situation in the northwest, and it's not what the Shaofu said. He may want to test you and find out what's going on in the northwest.

Gu Jiu laughed, He wants to see Mrs. Ben, and Mrs. Ben also wants to see him.

Liu Zhao frowned, Do you really want to see him?

Gu Jiu nodded, Cai Zhongshan and Xu Chengye are hesitant, and my wife needs to give them a push. Mrs. Li is a suitable candidate. In addition, we are not worried about Lu Hou, and there is no need to send someone to the northwest to watch Lu Hou. None of them are Luhou's opponents.

Even if it is hopeless, even the king of Xiliang can fool him into hopelessness, he is not Lu Hou's opponent, and his head almost fell to the ground. Now it seems that only Master Li can draw with Luhou. Moreover, with Lord Li's identity and status, Marquis Lu also respected him twice. It just so happens that His Majesty wants to move Master Li, we should take this opportunity to revitalize the Northwest game.

Liu Zhao asked, Aren't you worried that Mr. Li will use us in turn to collude with Marquis Lu?

Gu Jiu shook his head, Two tigers cannot fit in one mountain. Master Li is an orthodox scholar, and he pursues righteousness and obedience. He is a monarch, minister and minister, and is orthodox. Ninety-nine out of ten, he will not mess with Lu Hou. If he is really willing to leave everything and If Lu Hou is a gangster, he won't beg you, so he can cut his tail to survive and become a traitor.

You and Luhubi, the biggest advantage is orthodoxy. You are the prince, the legitimate heir. To Mr. Li, you are the king. Marquis Lu has no rightful name, Lord Li will only guard against him, not collude with him.

The implication is that although Mr. Li is good at exploiting camps, he does not lose his integrity.

Exactly! I believe he can keep his integrity. A person in his sixties or seventies shouldn't bet on his posthumous reputation. Even if he wins the bet, he will have the reputation of being a traitor.

Gu Jiu has already seen how much scholars attach importance to reputation.

She is willing to take a gamble, and bet that Master Li will not lose money.

Gu Jiu was about to get up to meet Master Li.

She reminded Liu Zhao by the way, Do you want to send Brother Yu back to the palace to receive an orthodox royal education? By the way, what exactly is the royal education? When I come back, you can talk to me carefully.

Liu Zhao said casually, Royal education is just like that.

Gu Jiu rolled his eyes at him, and led the people to the back mountain.

Master Li was very patient, sipping tea and admiring the scenery, waiting for Gu Jiu to arrive.

He was sure that Gu Jiu would definitely come to see him.

The layout in the northwest seems to be Liu Zhao's personal decision.

However, Master Li firmly believed that this matter must have been written by Gu Jiu.

Relying on Liu Zhao alone, he cannot reach the northwest.

Even if he could extend his hand to the northwest, he would be chopped off by Marquis Lu.

Over the years, countless people have tried to send spies to the Northwest.

As a result, without exception, the spies sent to the northwest were either beheaded or disappeared, and some of them came back alive, which also turned Lu Hou's face.

However, Gu Jiu should be an exception.

Marquis Lu would guard against Liu Zhao's spies, but he would not guard against Gu Jiu's business managers.

Gu Jiu and Lu Hou have been doing business.

The manager of the firm can get some information about the Northwest Army without deliberately inquiring.

Coupled with the establishment of express stations, the flow of news is faster.

However, these messages did not enter the court.

Ninety-nine out of ten, the news from Northwest has entered Gu Jiu's pocket.

Master Li was amazed.

The money offensive is really powerful.

The dignified young mansion has been infiltrated by Gu Jiu for many years, but without knowing it, he was led by the nose by Gu Jiu without knowing it.

Perhaps the Shaofu family order knew about it, but they didn't report it to Emperor Wende.

Whether there is any money transaction here, Mr. Li does not know.

However, Gu Jiu's actions allowed him to see new ways of thinking.

Before Gu Jiu, no one had ever used this method to operate.

I heard that Master Li wants to see Mrs. Ben?

Mr. Li, who was engrossed in his thoughts, was interrupted.

He raised his head and looked in the direction of the voice, Madam Zhao!

Gu Jiu nodded with a smile, I haven't seen you for a long time, but you still have the same demeanor.

Mr. Li stroked his beard and laughed, Old, old! Not as good as before.

Master Li wants to see Mrs. Ben, does he want to confirm His Royal Highness's determination to manage the Northwest?

Master Li was obviously stunned.

Immediately afterwards, he laughed again, Hahaha... Mrs. Zhao spoke so directly, well, that's refreshing! The old man just wanted to talk to Mrs. Northwest about it.

My lord please!
