Promotion Letter for the Chief Executive

Zhao Can's words meant something, and Ping An gave him a look, "Don't make trouble."

"I'm not messing around." Zhao Can held Ping'an's hand, "You've been busy all this time, and you don't even have time to eat with me. Let alone other things." It's also very sad for him to be alone. ?

Hearing the words, Ping An reflected for a while, it seemed that he was really busy during this time and neglected Zhao Can.

He's a bit out of it.

In the past, he and Zhao Can had no conditions to live together. They always did their own things and got together occasionally. This mode was more free and unfettered for Ping An.As a result, he got used to this way of getting along, and he hardly thought of Zhao Can when he was busy.

But now obviously this model is not suitable.Getting along day and night, Zhao Can's feeling of being ignored will be more obvious.

He really wanted to say "I'll be fine after a while" to appease Zhao Can.But Ping An himself is also very clear that he is always busy.After this matter is over, there will be the next one, and there will always be many things waiting for him to do.

Wait until the work is over, unless it is the day when he can no longer do it.

But Zhao Can must not ignore it here.Emotions need to be managed, and Ping An couldn't be more clear.There was a common goal before, so the hearts of the two are always together.But if you continue like this now, the relationship will be worn away after a long time.

So he admitted his mistake very readily, "When I'm busy, I always forget about everything. Thank you for reminding me. Then let's not talk about these things today. How about just being with you?"

He was alone in his previous life and had nothing to do anyway, so work took up a lot of his personal time.Now, it's time to adjust, work and rest.

He and Zhao Can still have a lifetime to go. Although there are many things to do, Ping An also has the confidence to finish all these things step by step.That being the case, it is not bad to play steadily.

"That's what you said." Zhao Can pulled Ping An into his arms with force.

Ping An struggled a bit, but was held down by him, "Don't move, let me hug you."

In the end, I really just hugged and did nothing.Ping An almost thought that Zhao Can had a sex change.

But obviously not.It's just that it was daytime at that time, and in the original hall, there might be ministers coming to ask for an audience at any time, even if Zhao Can wanted to do something, it was impossible.

Even if Ping An comes from the information age and is more open-minded, it is not that it has no idea about office play, and it does not plan to take this challenge.If people find out and spread the word, Zhao Can will be fine. He will definitely become a monster that will bring disaster to the country and the people, and everyone will shout and beat him.

So at night, Zhao Can pressed him on the bed to eat and wipe clean, and Ping An, who could hardly get up the next day, lay on the dragon bed, thinking very melancholy, sometimes the compromise with Zhao Can should not be too much, so as not to encourage his arrogance.

Fortunately, the work has already been arranged, and at this time, Ping An is indeed fine for the time being.As for planning or something, it doesn't matter if you lie on the bed. ——It's not right, the pain in his back will interrupt his train of thought when turning over.

Zhao Can got off the morning and came back, seeing Ping'an lying there with a tangled face, couldn't help feeling amused.He came over and massaged Ping An's waist, "Is it a backache? Your health is too bad, and you have to be careful in the future."

Ping An burst into tears.

He should have been angry and retorted when he heard this kind of words, but it is impossible for his current body to say "next time you lie down and let me try it", and other words naturally have no such lethality. Worth mentioning.

After joking, Zhao Can talked about business with Ping An.

Although Ping An's previous plan was a bit shocking, Zhao Can thought about it later and felt that it was actually a good choice.

Especially after listening to Pingan talk about the lessons he plans to teach.

Of course, Ping An didn't plan to teach "Women's Rules" and "Women's Training" in his school. What he wanted to teach were more practical things, so that these ordinary boudoir girls could open their eyes and see the world.This can be regarded as one of the ways to let women gradually walk out of the boudoir.

And no matter in what era, following the trend exists.Knowing that the daughter of an official family in the capital has started to go to school, there will naturally be people following her.This top-down influence is gentler and more suitable for Ping An's current needs.

Because he plans to recruit women to be on duty in the palace.But if these women are only going to come in to be maids, then there is no need.What he needs is someone who can read and write and can help him at work, not a court lady who serves tea and water.

This is easier said than done. If ordinary women are to be recruited, they must be trained.Therefore, Ping An felt that it would be good to teach well-founded official daughters first and accumulate experience.More importantly, these official daughters would definitely not be able to work in the palace, but they could serve as trainers and teach others in the future.

In this way, the workload of Ping An will be reduced a lot.

Although Zhao Can flatly denied it at the time, he also knew that it would be beneficial to accomplish this matter.So after thinking about it, I found a more suitable solution.

"It's not impossible to do this, but you and I can't be the ones to come forward." He said, "If I knew it earlier, I wouldn't let those concubines out of the palace. They are a good reason."

The toffees are free and have nothing to do, and it is not uncommon for them to call some young girls into the palace as companions.And if you say it like this, it's much more decent than some female school.Living in the palace and having the opportunity to get close to the emperor can kill two birds with one stone, and the ministers will not disagree.

——Although Zhao Can will never enter the harem now, let alone meet the women who live in the harem.

"Aren't there still a few people living in the palace?" Ping An said.

There are still a few princes who are still underage and cannot leave the palace to start a mansion. Naturally, the concubine can only continue to live in the palace.In addition, there are some childless concubines who will always live in the palace.

Zhao Can shook her head, "No, although they can be regarded as imperial wives, but they are not of high birth and their status is too low, how can they teach everyone to be ladies?"

Pingan thought about it and understood.

Those who want to send their daughters to the palace are just to be gilded and add some glory. In the future, they can enter the palace to serve the emperor, or marry children of other clans, which are considered excellent destinations.Even if there are none of these, it will be a great help when talking about kissing in the future.But in this way, it is necessary to teach them that the status of the person is high enough.

It is good that Concubine Zheng Gui comes from a famous family.

"Forget it," Ping An said, "it's not convenient for the palace to come forward, so we'll have to think of another way. If it doesn't work, it's enough to train the current palace ladies first. But it's not convenient to open a girls' school." , boys’ school is always okay, right?”

Zhao Can looked at him in surprise, "A boys' school?"

"That's right." Ping An said, "The harem takes Taiji Palace and Liangyi Palace as the central axis, and is the residence of the empress. Other places are divided into east and west palaces. Nowadays, most concubines live in the west, so it's better to keep people in the east. They also moved here and vacated the palace on this side to open a school."

Entering the East Sixth Palace from the Donghua Gate, you must first pass through the thirteenth row from the north to the south, where all the bureaus are located, the imperial dining room, the imperial tea room, etc. Almost every day, many people come in and out of the palace gate, which is extremely lively.It is difficult for the palace ban to be as strict as the West Sixth Palace.

Therefore, it is more convenient to free up the East Sixth Palace for other purposes than other places.

And even though it is an all-boys school, there is no need to worry that they will have any connection with the girls in the harem, because there are Taiji Palace and Liangyi Palace in between, and if the palace gate is locked tightly, there will be no problem.

Zhao Can thought for a while and asked Ping An, "What is your school going to teach?"

"I plan to let the garrisons from all over the country select and send middle-level generals to attend classes. In the name of guarding Gongye, they will study here for two to three years and then return to the army." Ping An said.

"Guarding the palace? What about the original guards?" Zhao Can asked.

He said the important point, and Ping An said with a smile, "In exchange, the imperial guards will naturally go down to experience for two or three years."

The army itself has a complete system, and it is difficult for him to intervene.Even for Zhao Can, it is not so easy to move this part.But it is much easier to call some middle-level generals to come for training.Moreover, there are many noble children among the royal guards, because there is no danger in the capital, so they are used to being loose on weekdays, and they are almost dawdling.

If the two can be exchanged, the generals below will be very happy to have the opportunity to come to the capital, and the people here can also be trained, so that they will not be all abolished.

So Zhao Can thought for a while, then nodded and said, "It's possible. But it's safe. Are you going to attack the army?"

"No," Ping An shook his head, "Just... sow a little fire first, hoping that one day even if I don't do anything, it will burn itself into a prairie fire."

"Since that's the case, let's do it. It's just your school, who should take care of it?" Zhao Can asked.

Pingan thought for a while and said, "Who is in charge of the current Royal Guard?"

Zhao Can pointed at herself.The guards guarding the imperial city naturally belonged directly to the emperor.But he also understood the meaning of Ping An, and said with a smile, "Then take this as a decree of grace. Later, I will send some generals to come to you."

Imperial Guards is a very general term, but in fact, the royal guards are divided into Xiaoqi, Longqi, Huyi, and Shenyi. They are led by four generals, and they are directly under the emperor. They exist independently of each other. non-interference.

Although Pingan had done a lot of things in the past, he basically had no contact with the Imperial Guards, and he was not familiar with these people.He had doubts in his heart, "These four are the late emperor's confidantes? If you ascend the throne suddenly, they might not obey orders, right?"

Zhao Can only smiled mysteriously, and didn't say anything, only letting Ping An go to see her with peace of mind.

After seeing the person, Ping An finally understood what he meant.

Because the four generals in charge of the imperial guards were not the old ministers left behind by the late emperor as he thought, but Tianshu, Tianxuan, Tianji, and Tianquan who had followed Zhao Can.

They are too familiar with Ping An, they have known the relationship between Ping An and Zhao Can since a long time ago.They regard Zhao Can as their main priority, and Ping An is like a "mother" to them. Whatever he wants to do, the four of them will naturally cooperate.

Ping An vaguely remembered that Zhao Can had said that he would arrange their own futures for the seven of them, but he did not expect that he had already achieved this step.

He couldn't help thinking of Kai Yang who had been running around outside with him.Among the seven people, I'm afraid he is the most inconspicuous one now, right?Sure enough, after Ping'an asked, he knew that Yuheng and Yaoguang stayed in the northwest and Hebei respectively, obviously to control the troops outside.

In this way, I should also plan for Kaiyang, so that when the brothers meet in the future, everyone else is very beautiful, and Kaiyang is still my bodyguard, is this plausible?

Hmm... just let him take charge of the generals school.

Although it is just an inconspicuous school now, it seems that it is just a means for the emperor to show favor, but Ping An already has a preliminary plan in his mind for how it will develop in the future.By that time, the person in charge of it will naturally become a pivotal figure.

Maybe it will be the best one among the seven people.

"Since they are all our own people, then I won't say much," Ping An threw out his plan directly, "I just want to ask you, are you able to control all your soldiers now? This matter , can you be the master?"

"Just say what you want." Tianshu took the plan, "Your Majesty has sent a message, we will fully cooperate with you on what you want to do."

He didn't say a word about the control of their respective armies. This is not because he lacks self-confidence. On the contrary, it is too self-confidence, and there is no need to mention this point at all.

Ping An said his plan, "This matter is not too urgent, but it's best not to delay it for too long. Go back and think about who can be sent out to learn something, where to go, and report to me. Wait until the garrison outside sends up the list, then we can proceed."

"Is there a time limit?" Tianxuan asked.

Ping An rubbed his chin and thought for a while, then said maliciously, "No later than autumn, the school must start."

However, schools at this time are almost open all year round, so none of these people can understand Ping An's strong resentment towards the September school season. Hearing Ping An's words, they immediately agreed.

Tianshu asked again, "Can our people choose where to go?"

Pingan knew that they must all want to send people to the Northwest and Hebei.After all, how can there be battles in other places?He smiled and answered firmly, "No, everything is subject to the organization's arrangements."

Afterwards, Ping An went back to find Kaiyang, and told him about it, "I plan to let you take charge, what do you think?"

Kai Yang was a little surprised, and said, "I still hope to continue following you."

"Following me has no future." Ping An said, "Besides, if you do this, don't you follow me? The seven of you are all the best talents around His Highness, but each focuses on different areas. Now everyone else I already have business to do, and you follow me alone, what do you look like? People who follow me can't be worse than others. "

"Alright then." Kai Yang had no choice but to agree, but then said, "But I only know how to practice Kung Fu, and I haven't done anything else."

In fact, he was very excited.Although it's good to follow Ping An, but that was when he was outside. Now that Ping An has returned to the capital, he basically lives in Tiangan Palace and doesn't need his protection. Basically, he can't help much. nothing to do.

Although I don't envy others, but if there is something to do, it should feel good.

It's just that Kai Yang's talent is focused on martial arts, so he can become an excellent hidden guard. As for other things, it's not that he can't do it, he's just afraid that he won't be able to do it safely and disappoint him.

"It's enough to know this." Ping An patted him on the shoulder with a smile, "The people who will come will be excellent generals from all over the world. When everyone gathers together, they will inevitably be dissatisfied with each other and compete with each other. At that time, you will use Suppress them all with your personal force. This way they will be obedient. As for other matters, I will give you a deputy..."

Speaking of this, Ping An suddenly had a flash of inspiration in his mind, and he remembered a person.

He once led a group of people to deliver supplies to the Zhuozhou Army, and used bombs to pit a small team of thousands of people in the local area. Finally, he successfully delivered the food and grass, and took the Zhuozhou Army back to Dachu.After the war, he voluntarily stayed in the Northwest, planning to operate Feng Yutang to liberate the Northwest peacefully!

A few more years passed, and Ping An didn't have much contact with him due to various reasons, but with Feng Yutang's ability, things should be almost arranged there.

It is also time for him to return to the capital to help himself.

He excitedly said to Kai Yang, "I have someone to choose, Feng Yutang, do you remember? What do you think about letting him manage this school with you?"

Kai Yang also met Feng Yutang when he was in the Northwest, although they had basically never spoken to each other and were not familiar with each other, but this did not prevent him from knowing how powerful Feng Yutang was.He thought for a while, and said realistically, "I'll be his deputy."

Asking Feng Yutang to assist him is really wronging him.With the other party's ability, even if he doesn't have himself, he can manage the school well, right?

Ping An laughed, "There's no rush for this, we'll discuss it when the time comes, I have to write him a letter first. Fortunately, the road to the northwest has been repaired long ago, and now the message is delivered faster than before, so there should be time."

After all, preparing a school is not a small matter. Although Ping An provides the venue and students, and can even give guidance on the teaching plan, there are many other things that need to be busy.

Speaking of Feng Yutang, Ping An couldn't help but think of Xu Wenmei.

The news of Emperor Xiping's death should have spread to Jiangnan by now, but Xu Wenmei didn't mean to write to ask, and Ping An himself couldn't make up his mind whether to mention this matter to him, and talk about the death of the late emperor. A moment of truth.

But then he thought that it wasn't Xu Wenmei that the first emperor couldn't let go of in the end, but the great Chu Jiangshan.Probably in his heart, this is the most important thing. Everything else, whether it is his wife and children, or the person he once admired in his heart, will all be taken back by a shot compared with thousands of miles away.

That being the case, why mention it again?

Besides, Xu Wenmei is a person who has personally experienced everything, so he will know it.

However, since the first emperor had passed away, Xu Wenmei didn't need to hide far away in the south of the Yangtze River. Ping An planned to ask him if he would like to come to the capital when he had a chance.

Like ordinary people, he likes to get together but not to leave, and he hopes that all the people close to him should stay by his side.

But before writing a letter to Feng Yutang, Ping An had to report the progress to Zhao Can and get his approval.

Hearing Ping An's layout in the northwest, Zhao Can asked, "The conditions were not mature before, so I didn't ask, what exactly is your plan?"

"I heard that life on the grasslands is difficult. In our impression, grassland people are brave and good at fighting. But almost no one has thought about the reason behind this kind of fighting? Because they are used to plunder, and plunder is for survival. "Pingan said, "In order to survive, of course a person can burst out the greatest fighting power and make the enemy fearful."

Hearing this, Zhao Can was thoughtful, "There is some truth to this statement. I have also heard that the grassland is bitterly cold, and the annual output is often not enough to survive the day. That's why we often go to the south to hunt grass valleys. In fact, every year, although our soldiers have Casualties, but the grassland tribes are not unscathed."

"Yes." Ping An said, "but their disadvantages are the same. They are used to the nomadic life on the grasslands, and it is difficult for them to live a stable life like the people in the Central Plains. In addition, their technology is not good, and the important areas are not good, and various jobs are also difficult. Well, none of them can do well. So they won’t be able to defend the city, so they had to plunder and leave.”

"To deal with such people, as long as we wear down their vigor for survival, there will be no problem." Ping An said.

Zhao Can asked, "You mean, we Da Chu will provide them with food to support them, and when they lose their vigor, they will naturally come to us?"

"Not only." Ping An said, "Besides, just like dealing with the southeast side, the grassland does not produce food, but some medicinal materials happen to only grow there, and fur, horses and some ores are also what we need Yes. We exchange food with them for these things, and when they get used to this kind of transaction, they will naturally not use troops against Da Chu.”

Maybe there will still be small frictions, but it is very difficult for large-scale wars to happen.

"We talked about this before," Zhao Can said, "I mentioned it to my father at the time, but the most difficult part was how to get the grassland people to agree to this kind of deal. The two clans have been at war for many years, and they are very wary of Da Chu. ..."

"That's what I asked Yutang to do in the Northwest." Pingan said, "As long as they know the benefits of this kind of deal, they won't worry about not agreeing."

How to let them know this benefit?Naturally, let the spies placed there spread the word.

It's always better to be on your own.
