Chapter 412 eager for success

Throughout history, all the articles in the officialdom will not be directly told to another person.

These dark twists and turns should not be said on the table. People in the officialdom should understand this by themselves. If they can't understand it, it means that you are not smart enough and you are not worthy of climbing up any further.

Like Li Xin, who speaks directly and explains it clearly is Hou Jingde's nobleman.

The black-faced Hou Jingde grinned and said, "Brother Li, no matter what happens in the future, the old brother will owe this kind of love."

"If my brother slanders you behind your back in the future, he will come as you told me. You are not allowed to be angry."

A smile appeared on Li Xin's face.

"Brother Hou, let me know first. If I tell others that you are brainless, don't be angry."

Hou Jingde smiled bitterly and said, "Can't you change the word? Although I'm not very smart, I'm not brainless..."

Li Xin smiled and didn't respond.

Hou Jingde also sat aside with tactfulness, and the two of them didn't talk much.

No matter what, it was in the palace now, and every word they said could be sent to the table of Emperor Taikang. The reason why Li Xin dared to say these words in the palace was because he was not afraid of such a thing.

Because even if the words he said to Hou Jingde were known by Emperor Taikang, it would not be a bad thing.

About another incense stick, Ji Ping, the left governor of the White-haired Grand Governor's Office, finally walked out of the emperor's study. After the old man walked out of the study, he did not leave directly, but went to Li Xin's side.

Li Xin stood up and bowed to the old man, "Li Xin, I have met my husband."

This Ji Ping's bloodline is farther from the main branch than Ji Mingfang, and has been separated from the first generation by three or four generations. So far, there is only one county duke's title, which is far worse than the Duke's National Duke.

However, when he arrived at his position, his influence was far greater than that of the title itself.

Ji Ping smiled and looked at Li Xin, and said with a smile: "I have heard a lot about Marquis Jing'an, and I am so terrifying to the younger generation."

"The Grand Governor has won the award."

Ji Ping shook his head and said, "There is no award, no award."

He patted Li Xin on the shoulder and laughed: "Marquis Jing'an is also a nobleman. According to this situation, I am afraid that you can enter the Grand Governor's Office to do things when you are thirty or forty."

After saying this, the old man shook his head and sighed: "This world is still the young man."

The old man walked away with a cane.

Li Xin shook his head and did not take this sentence to heart.

This is a routine used by leaders. They always like to draw cakes for young people to inspire their fighting spirit. This kind of words are useless to Li Xin.

After Ji Ping walked away, the young eunuch Xiao Zheng bowed to Li Xin and Hou Jingde.

"Two marquises, Your Majesty is waiting for you in the study."

Hou Jingde was also a marquis, a loyal and brave marquis of the Great Jin Dynasty.

Li Xin nodded, put his hands in his sleeves, and smiled at Xiao Zheng, "How are you doing now?"

Xiao Zheng was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly said, "Mr. Xie is concerned about it, and I am taking care of you, everything is fine."

The palace people in the palace are called slaves and females, but they do not call each other separately, and they all call themselves slaves. (Many people are confused about this issue, so let me explain here that in most dynasties in China, eunuchs call themselves slaves, except for a certain dynasty.)

Li Xin smiled and said nothing more.

According to the current trend, Dong Cheng has lost the qualification to compete for the eunuch of the eunuch, which means that this young eunuch will take charge of the inner court in a short time. It will be very beneficial to Li Xin to establish a good relationship with him now.

Under Xiao Zheng's leadership, Li Xin and Hou Jingde both arrived at the door of the emperor's study. Xiao Zheng knocked on the door gently and said sharply at the door: "Your Majesty, the two marquis are here."

The voice of Emperor Taikang soon came from the room.

"Let them come in."

Xiao Zheng opened the door, Li Xin and Hou Jingde walked in one after another.

The content of this conversation is still very old-fashioned. It is roughly to let Li Xin and Hou Jingde take care of each other and help each other in the imperial guards, and to fully control the imperial guards as soon as possible.

Emperor Taikang said for a while, was silent for a while, and then continued, "I want you to eliminate Pei Jin's influence in the Imperial Army within two months."

Pei Jin has been in the Imperial Guard for more than ten years. Even if he doesn't deliberately manage it, there are many of his subordinates, close friends and even loyal people in the Imperial Guard. The emperor means that Pei Jin's influence in the Imperial Guard should be erased as soon as possible.

Hou Jingde quickly lowered his head and responded, while Li Xin frowned and said, "Your Majesty, time is a little anxious."

Under normal circumstances, it takes about one to three years to completely eliminate this influence, but the time given by Emperor Taikang is too fast.

The emperor took a memorial from his desk and handed it to Li Xin.

This is a memorial sent back by the Ministry of Justice.

Li Xin opened it and glanced briefly, and he knew it himself.

A few days ago, eleven places in Dajin reported disasters, and the emperor did not believe it, so he sent people from the Ministry of Justice to investigate. Now, these eleven places that reported disasters were found by the Ministry of Justice. Only two places were indeed affected, and the other nine places were all reported lies.

Now, the people from the Ministry of Justice have escorted these officials who lied to report the disaster and are on their way back to Beijing for trial.

After reading it, Li Xin slowly breathed.

"Your Majesty wants to completely master the imperial guards before the people from the Ministry of Justice come back?"

Emperor Taikang nodded slowly.

"I have sent them a letter and asked them to return to Beijing slowly."

His Majesty, who had not long been the new emperor, sighed slightly: "When the people from the Ministry of Justice come back, the things done by those aristocratic families will no longer be covered. I will have to turn against them. Before turning against them, I must have some self-protection ability."

Li Xin lowered his head and said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will do my best to help Your Majesty master master the imperial guards as soon as possible!"

The emperor smiled and waved to Hou Jingde.

"General Hou will go down first, I have a few words to say to Chang'an."

Hou Jingde responded with respect and bent down and retreated.

After this big man left, Emperor Chengde's straight body suddenly collapsed, and he relaxed a lot. He let out a long sigh and said with a smile: "It's really not good to see these ministers posing majestic every day. It's better to be more relaxed when you are with Chang'an."

Li Xin smiled and said nothing.

The emperor continued, "Chang'an, you went to Pingnan Marquis' Mansion that day, but what goods will be received?"

"The people from Zheng clan in Xingyang seem to be reluctant to see Your Majesty, and hugged him tightly with the Marquis of Pingnan."

Speaking of this, Li Xin paused and continued: "As for Li Shen, no flaws were found, but I can be sure of it."

The emperor got up serious and asked, "What's the point?"

Li Xin whispered: "Li Shen is going to leave Beijing."

"Now the Marquis of Pingnan is surrounded by many people. Although I don't know how Li Shen went out, it is certain that before the southern border is completely in chaos, Li Shen will definitely find a way to leave Beijing."

Marquis Jing'an took a breath.

"Li Shen is not a person who is waiting to die. I have a strong premonition and he will start moving soon."

The emperor was slightly moved.
