Chapter 508 Decision
Emperor Qing'an remained silent.

Shen You didn't take the initiative to speak, and just stood aside quietly.

There are dozens of colorful koi in the pool, swimming happily in the pool, occasionally causing small splashes.

After a long time, Emperor Qing'an opened his mouth to break the silence: "Shen You, I want to send you out of Beijing to work on an errand, are you willing?"

These unspeakable words were finally spoken.Emperor Qing'an was in a complicated mood at the moment, and he didn't know what answer he wanted to hear.

Shen You had just been promoted to the commander of Jinyiwei, and it was the time when the limelight was in full swing.It should have been like Xue Rin back then, with the military power in his hands, walking in front of the saints, with a strong presence of saints, and a scene of several years or more...

With this opening of his mouth, Shen You will be asked to leave Beijing for his foreign post.Undoubtedly, a basin of ice water was poured over his head.

Shen You must have been shocked by the unexpected!

Emperor Qing'an, who was filled with indescribable guilt, never expected that Shen You was not the slightest bit shocked or disappointed, not even hesitant, and immediately responded with his hands: "Since the emperor is asking, I will boldly speak my mind. "

"The capital is at the foot of the emperor, prosperous, prosperous and peaceful. The general was born in the capital and grew up in the capital. In fact, as a general, there is not much room for him in the capital. The general is willing to leave the capital and do some practical things for the people and Daqi .”

Emperor Qing'an: "..."

Whether a person is perfunctory or sincere, he cannot hide it from others.

Shen You's words were decisive without any hesitation.It can be seen that he is really willing to leave the capital.

Emperor Qing'an stared at Shen You's handsome face, and said slowly: "Are you really willing?"

Shen You's gaze was firm: "Yes." After a pause, his voice lowered a bit: "I just don't know, where does the Emperor want me to go?"

Emperor Qing'an said indifferently: "General Yuan, father and son three people entered the palace today, and I will discuss with them the appropriateness of the frontier army. The former soldiers of the frontier army were seriously injured, so they have to recruit new recruits, train and reorganize, and appoint another group of generals. In addition to the training of cavalry, General Meng is too busy to do it all by himself."

"Training cavalry is a major event for the frontier army. The sooner they become elite cavalry battalions, the frontier army's combat power will be greatly increased. In three to five years, the Tartars from outside the pass will come back, and the frontier army will be able to resist it brazenly. They may even rush out of the pass , and drove the Tartars to Mobei."

"General Yuan proposed that I send another confidant general to be General Meng's deputy to be responsible for cavalry training. After thinking about it, I thought of you."

"However, if you go to the frontier army, you will have to go to the frontier for several years, or even ten years without being able to return to Beijing. Moreover, the border is very windy and sandy, and the climate is bitterly cold. It is a hard job to stay there for a long time. I have to ask you personally."

Shen You didn't have the slightest expression of fear, the light in his eyes became brighter and brighter: "The final general is willing to go to the border."

"You won't regret it?" Emperor Qing'an looked at Shen You.

The light in Shen You's eyes became brighter: "I will never regret it!"

Emperor Qing'an frowned, and relaxed slightly: "I will not treat you badly. You were originally a third-rank Jinyiwei commander, and you went to the frontier army to be promoted to a higher level. I will make you a second-rank mighty general, and you went to the frontier army." After that, he took command of the cavalry battalion of the frontier army. He only obeyed the orders of General Meng."

Thinking carefully about these words, it reveals an unusual meaning.

The [-] Frontier Army has always been under the Yuan family's control, and it has almost become the Yuan family's army.This time, taking advantage of Yuan Qing's defeat, Emperor Qing'an successfully appointed General Meng as the head of the frontier army.

Before General Meng left Beijing, Emperor Qing'an called General Meng into the Hall of Supreme Harmony, and the monarchs and ministers talked for a long time.At that time, Shen You was on the side.Naturally, he clearly remembered the instructions given by Emperor Qing'an to General Meng, first, to train the frontier army to resist the Tartars, and second, to promote and appoint a group of young generals...

To put it bluntly, it is to gradually reduce the influence of the Yuan family in the frontier army.Bring along generals who are not from the Yuan family faction, and split the frontier army with iron buckets.

Emperor Qing'an asked him to only obey General Meng's orders, that is, to let him fully support General Meng and turn the frontier army into an army that was only loyal to the emperor and Daqi.

Shen You's heart was surging, and he cupped his hands in response: "What the emperor said, the general will remember everything."

Emperor Qing'an frowned a little more, and his voice became more gentle: "Don't be too nervous. The Yuan family has always been loyal to me, and the frontier army is also full of loyal soldiers. After you go, it's okay to be on duty with your heart." But, with my support, no one dares to trip you up."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Shen Youxi's words are like gold, and his words are concise: "The last general will definitely do his job with all his heart."

……

The father and son of the Yuan family entered the palace, General Yuan took the fatal letter out, and opened his mouth to ask the emperor to recognize the prince who was living abroad.

He said at that time: "I only have one son, the prince, so there is no need for the general to say more."

General Yuan sighed and said: "The emperor treats the empress and the prince like this, the old minister is very sorry. But the emperor also has to think about it for Commander Shen. The people behind the scenes can send the letter to Yuan's house. Apart from the palace, there is more to this capital than the palace. Is there any place I dare not send? Once it spreads, how can Commander Shen deal with it? At that time, the emperor will also fall into a passive position."

"The minister entered the palace to face the saint, and begged the emperor to recognize the prince. It was for the sake of the emperor, and also for the consideration of Commander Shen. There was no selfishness. The Yuan family would not have the slightest bit of resentment or dissatisfaction."

As he said that, the old father-in-law knelt down: "I implore the emperor to grant all my ministers' loyalty."

He helped General Yuan up with his own hands: "Father-in-law doesn't need to say anything, I've made up my mind."

"I plan to send Shen You to leave Beijing to take a post."

As soon as this remark came out, General Yuan was fine, but his uncle and in-law Yuan Hai frowned and his eyes showed joy.At that moment, his heart suddenly became obscure.

The prince has a mother who is the only favorite in the middle palace, has a powerful family of wives and wives, and is supported and loved by the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty.It is by no means an exaggeration to describe it as the son of heaven and son of gold, honor, jade and honor.

As for Shen You, who had no father or mother since he was a child, he was raised by his second uncle and aunt. The 15-year-old Jinyi Dabi just showed his prowess. He started as a small soldier of the King of Yan, went through life and death, and was injured many times.

Now, he still wants to send Shen You away from the capital...

"Your Majesty, Shen You is a born general." General Yuan said in a low voice, "Letting him be the commander of the garrison is really wronging him. Why don't you let Shen You go to the frontier army! Give him another promotion, and let him go He fully assisted General Meng to train an elite cavalry. In this way, he will have an explanation for everyone and an explanation for Shen You."

He was silent for a long time before he said: "I have to think about it carefully before making a decision."

At this moment, Emperor Qing'an, who was standing by the pool, finally breathed a sigh of relief secretly.

Fortunately, things have not reached the worst step.Shen You could accept such an arrangement smoothly.

Shen You raised his head: "Your Majesty, there is one more thing I would like to ask you."
