As soon as the emperor finished speaking, the expressions of the ministers present changed. Even though they had guessed that the emperor might have to reuse this person, they were still surprised when they heard such an arrangement.

The Transport Department Shaoqing has a very considerable status among the officials at all levels of the major yamen in the capital, because he has the power to manage the Transport Envoys in various provinces. He is obviously a fourth-rank official, and his power is not even under the first-level senior officials of the ministers of various departments. He is a complete high-ranking official.

Of course, this is not the most critical thing. The most critical thing is that it is to directly promote Li Ling to a fourth-rank official.

Although he is now in the fifth rank, it seems to be only two levels away from the fourth rank, but in fact, in the Dayue officialdom, these two levels are often like natural disasters. More than 80% of officials, whether they are Beijing officials or local officials, have no special circumstances and make great contributions, and they cannot be mentioned from the fifth rank to the fourth rank, and from wearing blue official uniforms to scarlet colors.

Too many officials have wasted their lives. They became officials from south to north, and in the end they were symbolically promoted to the fourth rank after they retired, and they were usually only from the fourth rank, which is enough to comfort their lives. I dare not say that those who can be promoted from the fifth rank to the fourth rank in just a few years are not a great fortune, but they are also a great fortune that is in one hundred.

After Li Ling was in the Ministry of Justice case, everyone thought that his career had ended here, but he was promoted to such a height only a few months later... You know, he was still young, not even thirty years old, and he had only been in the court for only five years. Such an promotion speed is so envious and jealous.

Li Ling naturally understood the weight of it, and was also a little dazed. Such a big piece of cake actually fell on his head? Just because of his remarks a few years ago? This is so lucky...

And he thought a little deeper. The emperor said that he would be promoted to Shaoqing as long as he agreed, rather than finishing his job. In other words, if he could do his job well and make contributions in the matter of northern Xinjiang this time, the official position would have a possibility of further growth! This is too promising, enough to make 99% of the officials nodded without hesitation to do this job.

But Li Ling still hesitated because he knew very well that there must be big problems behind great fortune. If he could do his job well, it would naturally be great benefits. There is hope for promotion to the third-ranked junior high school and enter the center. But what if it fails?

Logistics support is related to the front-line military, and affects the lives and deaths of tens of thousands of military generals and millions of people! If there is a real problem with the logistics, can you afford this guilt? I am afraid that at that time, the higher you stand, the harder you will fall, and it will not be enough to accompany your life, and it will also involve your family.

What's even more serious is that in many past chores, Li Ling only needs to do his duty, but there are too many people who handle the logistics support matters and too much interest. However, it is not enough for him to do his own good. Some of the food and food that travels north are plucked by people.

As long as Li Ling thought about these complicated situations, he felt a little scared. The difficulties and obstacles were no less than leading troops to fight Gui Rong, and it was even worse!

This is an errand that coexists with danger and giving. If you become a person, you will rise up and die if you lose. Should you take it?

Seeing Li Ling fall into silence, the emperor and the ministers around him were not too anxious, and just waited quietly for him to make a choice. However, this was just a tea time, and finally someone couldn't help but: "Li Ling, why haven't you replied yet? How dare you be so arrogant in front of His Majesty?"

This shout finally pulled Li Ling out of his thoughts. He was so excited that he bowed and said, "Your Majesty, I am really flattered, so I thought too much. Such an important thing, I am young and humble, and I am really a little scared."

"What, you find it difficult, so do you want to refuse?" the prince raised his eyebrows and asked.

"I dare not, even if you trust me so much, I can't repay you. How could I refuse because I fear difficulties? I am just afraid that I will let you down your Majesty and ruin the great affairs of the court. Moreover, I am young and have never had any reputation before, so I am afraid that I will not be able to convince officials at all levels of the Transport Department and officials in other places. I am not very concerned about my face and this war is a big deal, so my Majesty has hesitated and does not know whether I should take on this job."

After hearing this, Lu Zhen laughed: "This kid is a wise man and knows how to take advantage of the situation. It seems that this matter can be accomplished..."

The emperor's unhappiness quickly disappeared and said with a smile: "You are doing things for the court and sharing my worries, so you don't have to worry too much. Since I use you, I will naturally give you the corresponding authority, enough to allow the Transport Department and the local government to cooperate with you. Your orders are not only yamen at all levels, but also the troops traveling north. Guo Ang--"

Privy Councilor Guo Ang took a step forward clearly: "That's true. When you take extraordinary actions and use extraordinary people, just make sure to arrange it. At that time, your orders will be no different from military orders. As long as it is conducive to logistics mobilization, the front-line troops can also be used by you."

"I thank Your Majesty for your trust. Since this is the case, I dare not refuse anymore. I will agree to this matter!" With the emperor's guarantee, Li Ling felt at ease, but after getting up, he said, "In addition, Your Majesty, I have another request."

"you say."

"Since I am in the logistics of the northern war, I cannot just stay in the capital. So I hope to be allowed to go to all parts of the north and coordinate everything."

Appreciation and joy appeared in the emperor's eyes: "Authentication, I will give you a gold medal. During this period, if I see the gold medal in person, I can coordinate military rations and supplies as a certificate for you."

Li Ling was even more happy when he heard this and thanked him again. Then, with the emperor's permission, he stepped back first.

It was not until I stood in an empty square and was blown by the cold wind that my somewhat confused mood was completely calmed down. I was actually promoted to the fourth-rank official? And with such a great power? This feeling was so wonderful, and it was a little unreal.

But Li Ling believed that he could definitely be competent for such an important task. Although there were many things to mobilize military rations and supplies, and there would inevitably be someone to embezzle them in the middle, in the face of his own betting meeting, these issues were not enough to worry about. As long as he had the right to do his job, he could overcome all obstacles and do his job beautifully without any mistakes!

Then, you can truly return to the court and no longer have to be a small businessman who may be bullied at any time...

...

"Really?" Yang Qingxiao was also surprised after hearing what her husband said.

Although Li Ling seemed to be very leisurely and carefree in the past few days, as the person beside her, she could feel how frustrated and distressed he felt. Now, the court has reused it again, and his husband finally has a stage and opportunity to show his ambitions.

"Well, of course it's true. Although it may be a bit tired and dangerous when you go to the north, it should be within the scope, and I don't have to go to the front line. I can also deal with those tedious errands one by one. It can be said that this errand was tailor-made for me." Li Ling said with a smile. This was the happiest time he had laughed at the past few months.

Then he looked at his wife again: "It's just that, I'm leaving you and Yue'er again..."

"I know your ambition, how can you be a burden to you? I think Yue'er is the same." Yang Qingxiao smiled gently. Since marrying Li Ling, her temperament has changed a lot, and her original sharpness has disappeared and has become much softer.

But then, she smiled again and said, "And I have thought about it. I can go with you. Although I can't help you in the account, I can take care of you and ensure your safety. Moreover, I have seen it. My disguise and disguise technique can be fake and real. I will definitely not be seen by others when I pretend to be a man to protect you."

When Li Ling heard this, he was happy first, and then hesitated: "This... are you too tired and too risky? After all, you are going to the north..."

"Why, do you think I'm weaker than you? Don't forget that I have saved you many times. In terms of martial arts, you are far worse than me." Yang Qingxiao frowned and said a little dissatisfied, then she showed some of her past style.

"I don't mean that, I'm just worried about your body..." Li Ling quickly explained, but he himself had no confidence. His wife's ability was indeed much better than him.

"I'll just make the arrangements, and I'll make the arrangements. I won't drag you down at that time." Yang Qingxiao smiled and made up his mind for him.

Seeing this, Li Ling didn't say much. After all, it was his wife's heart. Moreover, if something really happened, the multiple Qingxiao around him was indeed more secure. But later, after they told Yue'er about the matter at the dinner table, the little girl was a little reluctant: "Brother, you and your sister-in-law went outside, so leave me alone at home..."

"Uh, you're a big girl too. You'll have to get married in two years. It's not a problem for you to manage the family affairs." Li Ling could only deal with it casually, "And there are so many people in the family now, Uncle Tong and Li Xu are all here, it's okay."

Yue'er's face turned red. Although she was still a little reluctant, she knew that this was not the time for her to act coquettishly, so she could only nod. Seeing this, Li Ling felt relieved and picked up a piece of dish for his wife and sister: "Come and try it, this is the carp that has just been caught today, very tender."
