Promotion Letter for the Chief Executive

If the eunuch also has the idea of ​​leaving his name in history, I am afraid many people will laugh when they hear it.

But eunuchs also come from ordinary people. As long as they are human beings, they will have the desire for fame, wealth and power. Because the six faculties are incomplete, eunuchs can’t enjoy beauty, so they will inevitably find it elsewhere.

Therefore, many eunuchs are greedy for money, and some love to exercise power - of course, the latter requires opportunities, and not everyone is qualified to exercise power.

So it's not surprising that the eunuch has a good name.It is not the monopoly of emperors and ministers to leave a name in history, everyone can have such ambitions.

Zhang Dongyuan happened to have such a little ambition.However, he hid this kind of thought very deeply, and usually behaved meekly and moderately, no one could see that he still had this kind of thought.

Zhang Dongyuan has been waiting for an opportunity.

Climbing to the position of eunuch in the palm of the hand of the chief inspector of ceremonies is considered to be the end of his life.Therefore, the last expectation in Zhang Dongyuan's life is to make a big event that can be remembered in history.It's just that this kind of thing, where is it his turn?

Zhang Dongyuan's heart skipped a beat when he saw Ping'an's plan. If it can be realized, it will be a great event that will last for thousands of years.

So after he waited for the emperor to sleep, he came to Ping'an at night.Seeing Ping An, the first thing I asked was, "Ping An, is your plan really feasible?"

"I can't tell you that." Ping An didn't guarantee it, but said, "Mr. Zhang, you also know that I have little knowledge and don't understand many things. I thought of this matter as soon as I slapped my head. Whether it will be possible or not, I will I have no idea."

Zhang Dongyuan glanced at him angrily, "I don't know you yet? If you don't have the confidence, how can you show it? Tell me the truth, what are your plans?"

Pingan blinked and smiled slyly, "I'm telling the truth. The manager also knows that I grew up in the palace. Although I think I have seen many things, I really don't know anything about farming. And How dare I assure you that this method will work?"

"Then you still take it out, are you trying to fool me?" Zhang Dongyuan looked at him suspiciously.

Pingan smiled slightly, "Zi said: I am not as good as an old farmer."

Zhang Dongyuan was slightly taken aback, but after all, he is also a person who has studied the Four Books, so he quickly realized it.This sentence comes from the Analects of Confucius. Confucius himself admitted that he was inferior to old farmers in farming, and inferior to old gardeners in gardening.

So what Ping An means is to let him find someone who really understands farming to do it. ——Can it work? Can you just try it?Anyway, the plan has already been taken out safely, so you just need to follow it, and it doesn't take much energy and time.If it is really useful, it is naturally a good thing for Zhang Dongyuan, and it will not lose too much if it is useless.

Based on Zhang Dongyuan's understanding of Ping'an, he felt that Ping'an was not someone who would entertain others with such things.So he is at least [-]% to [-]% sure that it can be done, which is enough for Zhang Dongyuan to make up his mind.

"Okay, I'll find someone to try it later." Zhang Dongyuan said, paused, and then asked, "How long will it take to see results?"

"Doing more control groups can shorten the time." Ping An said, "But it will take two or three years to show initial results." The initial results mean that you can mention this matter in front of the emperor. .

Zhang Dongyuan looked down at his plan again, and stayed on the last part.Although he felt that it was absurd for Ping An to mobilize so many people for such a small matter as a gangster, but he didn't mind selling it.Anyway, he can decide this matter.

So Zhang Dongyuan immediately said, "Don't worry, I will arrange for you the extra people."

In other words, there is no need to postpone the matter of the general secretary until two or three years later.

Ping An didn't ask Zhang Dongyuan how to solve it, but nodded with a smile, "Thank you, Manager Zhang."

"I should thank you." Zhang Dongyuan couldn't help asking him, "Why didn't you just show it to His Majesty?" With Ping An's ability, how could the emperor keep letting people stay in the mess hall?He was just angry before, but with the matter of Liu Cairen as a buffer, His Majesty's anger has almost disappeared.At this time, Ping An handed over a ladder, and the emperor naturally descended the steps.

Ping An smiled and said nothing.

Zhang Dongyuan sighed, "Forget it, you must know these things well, so you don't need me to say more. But I still want to tell you a few words, this is in the palace, and His Majesty is our master." Young man, angry Sex is a good thing, but if you think too highly of yourself, you tend to fall down easily.

Pingan lowered his head, "I know, let Manager Zhang worry about it."

Obviously, he didn't intend to talk about this topic, nor did he listen to Zhang Dongyuan's words.

Zhang Dongyuan said a few more gossips, then got up and left.The fact that he came to see Ping An in private cannot be known, otherwise I don't know what articles I can make.So it can't stay for long.

After sending people away, I lay on the bed safely and soundly, feeling comfortable and relaxed.

Sure enough, everything should be handed over to others, and it will be much easier if you don't have to do everything yourself.In the past, he was always worried here and there, but in fact, everyone is not a fool, as long as the method is right, they will naturally work hard to do one thing well.

It's just to see if we can recruit people in.

Ping An found that he had to embark on a path that he despised before.

Although it is a bit thick-skinned to say so, Ping An suddenly felt that he could understand those so-called treacherous ministers in history, especially the ones who dominated the government and did a lot of things that benefited the country and the people.Are these people born traitors?Not necessarily, but later found that this method is the easiest way to get things done, so I had to step on this road, and later I couldn't even control the huge interest group, so internal problems broke out and it collapsed.

Gou benefits the life and death of the country, how can it be avoided because of misfortunes and blessings?

This is a sentence that Ping An learned when he was in junior high school, and it is from the anti-smoking hero Lin Zexu.

Only today did he vaguely understand it.Although Ping An feels that his realm is far behind these historical celebrities, everyone does the same thing.

I just hope that one day I will look back and see that I am not so annoying, and the most important thing is - I hope the ending will not be so tragic.

Shang Yang, Chao Cuo, Fan Zhongyan, Zhang Juzheng, the Six Gentlemen of [-]... It has almost become a rule that reformers will not end well.

Ping An turned over, feeling that he was thinking too much.Even if there is an analogy, it should be compared to those eunuchs in history.What Zhao Gao, Wang Zhen, Liu Jin, Wei Zhongxian and the like...Of course, everyone has one thing in common that they all end badly.

This story was a little sad, Ping An turned over again and threw this thought out of his mind.Close your eyes and finally fall asleep slowly.

In the end, she actually dreamed of Zhao Can.

The two were sitting under the lamp, Zhao Can held his hand, looked it over carefully, then blew a breath into his palm, and asked, "Does it still hurt?"

The question should be about those blisters, right?Ping An suddenly realized, then shook his head.

The self in the dream is a bit strange.In other words, the atmosphere in the dream was a bit strange, as if nothing had happened between him and Zhao Can, they acted very close to each other, as if it was a matter of course.

That's why Zhao Can's expression and movements were so natural, as if he was really holding him in the palm of his hand, and he would feel extremely distressed if he suffered a little injury.

Ping An herself was awake, but saw herself in the dream blushing, and said in a low voice, "It hurts."

Then...then he saw Zhao Can raised his hand to his lips, then stuck out his tongue, and gently licked the wound on his palm.

"What are you doing?" The self in the dream asked with a pretentious voice.Hearing Ping An, I couldn't help but get goosebumps all over my body, it was so gross.

However, Zhao Can didn't realize it, and smiled brightly at Ping An in his dream, "Saliva helps wounds heal." He said solemnly.

It turned out that Zhao Can was so dishonest even in his dreams, and Ping An felt that he was hopeless.

He woke up suddenly.

When I opened my eyes, I realized that there was a vague shadow in front of the bed.Ping An was startled, sat up subconsciously, and heard the other party lower his voice, "It's me."

It's Zhao Can.

It was not a dream.While heaving a sigh of relief, Ping An couldn't help being a little weird, and subconsciously rubbed his injured hand on his clothes, as if there was really something left there.He didn't realize his action until after rubbing, and couldn't help but use his hand to increase the amount.

"Why are you here?" He also asked in a low voice.

Zhao Can said, "I heard you were injured?"

Ping An was helpless, "It's just a few blisters, and it's almost healed. You don't really come here for such a boring thing, do you?"

"...Zhang Dongyuan came here just now." Zhao Can said, "What did he tell you? Did the emperor ask you to go back to the Prison of Rituals?"

It turned out to be for this.Ping An couldn't help thinking, why on earth is Zhao Can so nervous?Was he afraid that he would go back to the Supervisor of Rites, or did he want him to go back?

"No." He was silent for a while, and said, "It's just a personal matter, I asked him, now that the result has come, just come here to send a message."

Zhao Can didn't know whether to believe it or not. Anyway, he took up the topic and reached out to grab Ping An's hand again, "Let me see your injury."

"What do you think of the pitch black?" Ping An struggled.

But Zhao Can held it tightly, "I have a solution." He said, then rubbed the palm of Ping'an's hand with his other hand, and found the wound.It's really not big, and it has scabbed over, and it looks like it will heal soon.Zhao Can's heart relaxed, and he let go of his grip.

Ping An quickly retracted his hand, only to feel that the palm of his hand was hot, just like his face.

At the moment when Zhao Can said that he had a way, Ping An unexpectedly thought that he would lick with his tongue like in his dream...

"Ahem... After reading it, you should go back."

Ping An scratched his head, a little wary of Zhao Can's sticky behavior, and even more dissatisfied with himself who had softened his heart.He and Zhao Can are no longer that kind of relationship, if you strayed off the road, you can quickly go back and walk again. It is best for both of you to forget about the previous period.

But Zhao Can obviously didn't think so, and he was not that open-minded.

But Ping An soon had to make up his mind.

At this time, it was the twelfth lunar month, and the New Year was approaching. Officials from all over the country had returned to Beijing one after another, waiting for transfer. News from all over the country were also sent to the capital to summarize the past and look forward to the future.

Wang Congyi also brought news of an unexpected person to Ping An.

The news was sent by Feng Yutang, and it was sent directly to Wang Congyi through the route of the Imperial City Secretary.Wang Congyi and Shi Shiwen were vaguely at odds with each other, and Feng Yutang was from Ping An, and the news was assigned to Ping An, so he sent it right away.

This is a text message, mainly saying that everything is going well for him there, and he has initially laid the groundwork.Then, by the way, he has already contacted the people sent by Ping An and made relevant arrangements.

The words were vague, but Ping An knew at a glance that Xu Wenmei had already settled down.As for whether to stay there or go to Jiangnan, it is not known.

What happened to Xu Wenmei is the fundamental source of all conflicts between Ping An and Zhao Can.After receiving the news, Ping An couldn't help feeling somewhat wary of his recent laziness and slack.Remind yourself again that you can't heal the scar and forget the pain.

It was hard to tell who was right and who was wrong about the past, but it was enough for Pingan to know that it was not appropriate for him to continue to entangle Zhao Can.He has no willful power, nor can he afford another accident and negligence.

Although it was a bit of a blow, the one who received this news was the most happy.After all, things in the west are going smoothly, Xu Wenmei has also settled down, and everything is moving forward according to the plan, which is naturally something to be happy about.

What makes Ping'an even more happy is that at the first court meeting at the end of the new year, the emperor faintly revealed his intention to use troops to the west.

As we all know, the grassland is the right place to raise horses.Large and vast pastures can breed excellent horses.With horses, cavalry can be equipped and the combat effectiveness of the army can be improved.Da Chu himself currently only has two horse farms.The first place is Shanglin Garden, where all the horses are raised for the private use of the royal family. There are only a few hundred horses in total, which is better than nothing.

The other is in Yanzhou to the north.Almost all the horses used by the Chu army today are provided here.But still far from enough.

Originally there was a horse farm in Zhuozhou, but the grassland people in the west were restless, and small-scale wars would break out there from time to time. If so many horses were kept there, they might be looted by the grassland people, and the gain outweighed the loss. Abandoned.

This time using troops to the west, the emperor meant to push the border further west by about one state.The large area over there is suitable for raising horses, and after it is brought into the country, it will naturally be able to be used.Within a few years, a brave and invincible cavalry can be equipped.

The cavalry is used to deal with the Changhe tribe in the north.Whether it is the horse farm in Yanzhou or the grassland in the west, they are not comparable to the Changhe River Basin occupied by the Changhe Tribe.There are abundant aquatic plants and abundant products, but the climate and environment are completely different from those in the south of the Yangtze River, so it is very suitable for raising horses.

The Changhe tribe used to rely on cavalry to conquer the world, which shocked the whole world.Until now, although Great Chu has been established for many years, mentioning the Changhe Tribe still makes people feel sympathetic.

This is the real worry of Da Chu.However, they were defeated by Taizu's army back then, their vitality was severely injured, and they split into small tribes, so they have been recuperating for decades, and there is no threat.

But such a long time has passed, and the long-term must be united. In the past few years, the north side has made frequent moves, and the emperor can't hold back anymore.If you don't prepare well, you might be beaten again.

People of insight can see it somewhat, so no one immediately jumped out to object to the emperor's hint.

It's just that the war is not so easy to fight, and the DPRK and China still need to make a lot of preparations.It will take at least one or two years to really fight. ——This made Pingan very uncomfortable.He thinks that in a war, the big trucks should pull all the troops over, so that the battle can be fought in a short time, and the winner can be determined.

But in this day and age, messaging lags, so everything is slow.For example, Xu Wenmei, who went out for half a year before sending back news.It is unimaginable in later generations.

All Ping An can do is wait.However, he really doesn't care about the affairs of the court at present, because now the secretary of the court is facing a big matter of reconstruction.After the news came, everyone was excited.Because they got the exact news, the part of the people who were laid off will also arrange new errands, and they don't have to worry about being sent out of the palace.

Most people here don't care what they are doing, as long as they have money to support their families.Anyway, what I do in the mess hall is all physical work.

Everyone is more curious about what the new boiler room will look like after it is built.

Many people are well-informed and have long known that this matter has something to do with Ping An, so they came to him to inquire about the news.But Ping An played dumb about it.In his heart, he lamented that Zhang Dongyuan did things simply and neatly, saying that it would be resolved, and it was already arranged in less than two months.

So who can say that power is not a good thing?

Ping An can fool others, but Youtai knows everything. He even saw the plan made by Ping An with his own eyes, so he couldn't hide it from him.But he didn't mean to spread the word, but he was very excited every day, finished his errands, and followed everyone to see the boiler room under construction.Whenever I heard someone praise me, I showed a proud expression on my face.

The things used in the palace are always refined, even if it is just a boiler room.So it took nearly a year to build this building, until the news that the imperial court was about to start a war with the west had spread throughout the capital, and the boiler room here was finally built.

During the first trial, Zhang Dongyuan himself was present.Seeing that it really saves time and effort, I can't help being overjoyed.This thing can be used not only in the palace, but also in places where it can be promoted outside, such as in the military camp, it can be used very well.At that time, it will all be a part of Zhang Dongyuan's credit book.

Of course, Zhang Dongyuan has not forgotten who brought all this.After the trial was successful, he praised Ping An, and at the same time called Ping An over, and asked him, "You can't stay in the gang all the time, how about taking advantage of this opportunity of reassignment, and finding a place for you?"

Ping An had already thought about it, and said immediately after hearing the words, "I'll go to the Military Bureau. By the way, I still need to bring someone with me, is that okay?"

Although it was a doubt, Ping An knew that Zhang Dongyuan would never refuse.Sure enough, he just turned his head and glanced at Youtai who was standing not far away waiting for Ping An, "Is he the one you want to take?" He paid attention to Ping An, so he naturally knew that the other party had made such a friend after he came here.But Zhang Dongyuan never believed that Ping An would care too much.It was only now that he looked at this little eunuch named Youtai with admiration.

It is said that he is dull and honest, but just because he can make Ping An treat him differently, Zhang Dongyuan gave him a high look.

I don't know how this guy did it. Could it be that this is the legendary blessing for a fool?Ping An is too smart, and he likes this kind of wooden people?

No matter how much he slandered in his heart, after Ping An nodded, Zhang Dongyuan said without any hesitation, "Okay, you go back and pack your things, and I'll send someone to show you the way."

It was inconvenient to talk more in front of everyone, and after saying these few words, Ping An walked away.Youtai immediately came over and asked, "What did Manager Zhang want you to say?"

"I handed over the blueprints to him. He was very happy and planned to help me change places." Pingan asked Youtai, "Do you want to go with me? Manager Zhang can help arrange it. Of course, if you want to stay in the chaos Tang Si, it is also possible. Or if you have other places you want to go, you can also tell me."

"I'll follow you." Youtai said without hesitation, "Let's make an agreement, and I will take good care of you."

Ping An smiled.Although he gave Youtai another choice, if Youtai really chose, he might be a little bit disappointed.Fortunately, he didn't misunderstand the person at last. Since Youtai believed in him, he wouldn't be stingy and just push him to go up.

"Then go back and pack your things." Ping An patted him on the shoulder.

It didn't take long for the arrangements of so many people in the gangster to come out.Except for those who remained, the others were scattered to other yamen, and some were even sent to Huangzhuang.In short, everyone has a place to go, and Ping An and Youtai are among them, and they are not conspicuous at all. Except for those who have been paying attention to him, no one will notice.

When Zhang Dongyuan returned to the original hall, the emperor asked about it, "Where did he say he was going?"

"If you go back to the emperor, it will be a military battle."

The emperor raised his eyebrows, a little surprised, but after thinking about it carefully, he couldn't help laughing, "It's interesting. You should pay more attention to it."

"Yes."
