East Factory Governor

Chapter 580 Where is the Hou Mansion?

Qin Shuhuai waved his hand to disperse the moisture in front of him.

Then he said to Chongzhen, "Your Majesty, Dongchang is related to the plan to purge Donglin against the party. I still believe that if Governor Cao announces his return to his hometown, Dongchang must be in the hands of a reliable person so that nothing will go wrong. Otherwise, I will It is absolutely unfeasible to lead troops in one city and one province to seize the power of Donglin governors in various places."

Chongzhen smiled, "Brother Qin's words are very true, so didn't I give this to you? In terms of reliable people, is there anyone in the world who is more reliable than Brother Qin? Brother Qin is the pillar of our Ming Dynasty. Even if you are exhaustive and invincible, it is very suitable for you to take up the position of the director of the factory."

"Your Majesty, if the Emperor has someone more reliable, he can take over Dongchang."

"No more. From the looks of it, Brother Qin is the only one left. Wang Chengen acted aggressively, Wang Dehua was blown away by the wind, and other eunuchs, big and small, were even more unusable. Didn't Qin Shuhuai already know this?"

Chongzhen repeated exactly what Qin Shuhuai said to Cao Huachun that day.

Qin Shuhuai said patiently, "Eunuchs have always been in charge of the East Factory. Has the emperor ever thought about how the officials would react if the officials were in charge?"

"Hehe!" Chongzhen laughed, "Do I still need to worry about this matter? Brother Qin, you are so scheming and powerful, you must have already figured out a countermeasure? You want to take charge of the East Factory, who can stop you you?"

Every word Chongzhen said was full of yin and yang, which made Qin Shuhuai let out a long sigh after hearing it.

"Brother Qin, why are you sighing? Is what I said wrong?" Chongzhen asked.

Qin Shuhuai knew that Chongzhen didn't want to talk about this matter at all.

He put down his chopsticks, changed the subject and said, "Your Majesty, let's put this aside for discussion. If the Emperor has any concerns, I will never mention it as a minister."

Chongzhen looked at Qin Shuhuai, and said with a half-smile, "Brother Qin, do you think I have any concerns?"

"Of course there are."

"Then I'll pretend you haven't mentioned it?"

Qin Shuhuai sighed, then smiled wryly, and said, "I obey the order."

Chongzhen looked at Qin Shuhuai, and his heart was overwhelmed.

When Cao Huachun told him that Qin Shuhuai wanted to be the factory owner, his first reaction was that Qin Shuhuai was testing.The position of a factory boss is indeed irrelevant to Qin Shuhuai, but this position is a special one. If a healthy person takes it, there will be a backlash from the crowd.If he can even give him this seat, then Qin Shuhuai will probably open his mouth further and make more unreasonable and unreasonable demands in the future.

However, I have to give it.

The more than 300 elites of the Tarzis are only [-] miles away from Chen Bing, Yuan Chonghuan's army is trapped in Zunhua, Qin Shuhuai is the only one who can save the current crisis.Under such circumstances, let alone asking Cao Huachun to mention it in a roundabout way, even if he went directly to him and said that he wanted to take charge of the East Factory, would he not give it to him?
So he simply gave it to Qin Shuhuai without waiting for him to bring it up!But he was aggrieved, that's why he made such yin and yang remarks.

But now, he doubted his previous judgment again.Because he didn't see ambition in Qin Shuhuai's eyes, only helplessness and sadness.Moreover, Qin Shuhuai did not use a condescending attitude to force himself to agree - you must know that if he wanted to threaten, he could do it.

He was conflicted and didn't know how to treat Qin Shuhuai.

Treat him as a brother, as a minister of power, or as an ambitious man?

He would rather Qin Shuhuai push himself hard, so that at least he would know what was going on in the heart of this person standing in front of him who called him a brother.

However, Qin Shuhuai's regress made him at a loss as to what to do.Just like when he suddenly said to let Qin Shuhuai take charge of the East Factory, Qin Shuhuai was also at a loss.

At this moment, Qin Shuhuai raised his wine glass and said, "Your Majesty, after this drink, I will tell you something."

Chongzhen also raised his glass, "Okay, do it!"

The two drank their own glasses of wine.

Qin Shuhuai said, "Your Majesty, do you still remember the scene when we first met?"

Chongzhen's eyes froze, as if he saw that sunny afternoon again, he just got rid of the eunuchs, and was about to show his strength, when he heard that Mr. Sun found a young man with insight, he was eager to run away excitedly Go to Liu Shi Academy to meet him.Unexpectedly, the two hit it off right away, and they only met for the first time, and they made a grand wish of "Zhongxing Daming" together.

What an afternoon it was!It seems that it has not been such a bright sunshine for a long time.

"Your Majesty, I told you that day that I would do my best for Daming and the Emperor, and I have not forgotten." Qin Shuhuai put down his wine glass and said, "Now, the situation on the three sides has been settled, and the Demon Sect has no worries for now. The only threat to Daming is Huang Taiji." It’s just the Donglin Party. The Donglin Party can be ignored for the time being, but Huang Taiji’s soldiers are close at hand. This is the critical moment for us to realize our ambitions. We, the monarch and the minister, have gone through untold hardships to come together today. No one can be left behind now!"

Chongzhen's expression froze slightly, and he said, "Brother Qin, what do you mean by that?"

Qin Shuhuai smiled wryly, and said again, "It's not interesting."

After taking a sip of wine, he took a deep breath and said, "Your Majesty, I think that the First Battle of Ji Town is of great importance, so I need one person to plan the overall plan. I think Mr. Sun Ge is worthy of this task. In addition, in terms of cooperation with Yuan Chonghuan, He Kegang should be the best, so the [-] troops brought by the minister this time can be fully commanded by He Kegang."

Chongzhen was shocked, he never thought that Qin Shuhuai would surrender his military power on his own initiative.

Is he sincerely trying to reassure me, or is he testing me?Can He Kegang lead the [-] martial arts allied forces?Can he defeat Huang Taiji?

Thousands of thoughts flashed through Chongzhen's mind at once, making his brain swell for a while.

He pondered for a while, and then came to a conclusion: No one except Qin Shuhuai could command the 10,000 army.Moreover, only Qin Shuhuai could repel Huang Taiji's [-]+ army.

Brother Qin, brother Qin, you are advancing by retreating!

Thinking of this, he smiled lightly and said, "Brother Qin, you have always been self-confident, why are you so timid now? You are the number one general of my Ming Dynasty and the person I trust the most. This battle is about the safety of the country. You want to be lazy , I won’t allow anything! Don’t mention this matter again.”

Qin Shuhuai had expected that Chongzhen would say this, he just wanted to tell Chongzhen that I knew you were suspicious of me.

Afterwards, he said again, "In that case, then I will follow the emperor's order and continue to lead the army. By the way, the emperor said in the imperial decree that I will reward the minister with a marquis' mansion. I don't know where the marquis' mansion is?"

Chongzhen seemed to have a premonition of something, a light flashed in his eyes, and he said hastily, "On Chang'an Street, it is a quiet mansion amidst the hustle and bustle. I went to see it in person. The mansion is not inferior to the palace."

Qin Shuhuai nodded, and said meaningfully, "The emperor has really paid for it this time! In this way, I can finally have a mansion of my own. Hehe, I will let all my family members move over to live in the Marquis Mansion tomorrow." .By the way, I have always acted recklessly, so I have made too many enemies. I dared to ask the emperor to send some capable men to help protect the safety of my family. Well, the more the better."
