Chapter 213
Chen Jiu was still thinking about how to deal with Zhao Deyan, an old man, but Eunuch Cao knocked on the door in a hurry, as if there was something wrong.

"Master Chen, His Majesty has summoned you."

Cao Shaoqing looked a little nervous.

"call."

Chen Jiu took a deep look at him.

"You informed?"

"Well, Mr. Chen, our family still thinks that it is better for the Holy Majesty to understand this matter."

Little Eunuch Cao's eyes dodged and he didn't dare to look directly at him.

Chen Jiu was speechless.

He patted Cao Shaoqing on the shoulder.

"Finally, I will teach you something. Unless you encounter troubles that cannot be solved, don't rush to report to the higher authorities. Okay, don't be nervous, let's go to the Holy Spirit together."

After finishing speaking, he didn't look at Cao Shaoqing again, he released the yin and yang that trapped Wanwan, and prepared to bring this girl to see Zhengde.

Wan Wan got out of trouble and did not take the opportunity to escape. She was very interested in what happened next.

It seems that the information he got before was inaccurate. This Jin Yiwei didn't seem to get along well with the emperor directly, and he also seemed to have selfish intentions.

this is a good news.

Wanwan followed behind Chen Jiu in a desperate manner, and the corners of Wanwan's mouth rose slightly.

Have fun watching myself.

A man, a woman, and a eunuch entered the palace. The emperor was already waiting for them. There were two old eunuchs beside him, one was Cao Zhengchun, and the other was Wei Zhongxian, who Chen Jiu had only heard of by name but had never seen a real person.

Zhengde's eyes lit up slightly when he saw Wanwan, but he didn't make any follow-up actions, but turned his gaze to Chen Jiu.

"Aiqing, I heard that Taifu Zhao's family was wiped out?"

"That's right, none of the 120 members of Taifu Zhao's family survived. The murderer was caught on the spot, but unfortunately the minister confiscated him and stopped her, resulting in her death in prison."

Chen Jiu nodded, considering that he would tell Zhengde about the true and false jade seals later, he briefly described the situation at that time, and took the blame for Wanwan's death on Tuotuo himself.

He was about to continue talking when he was suddenly interrupted.

"Since Taifu Zhao has been silenced and the culprit is dead, let's let this matter go. Actually, I came to you for other reasons. Aiqing has made a lot of contributions recently. I think the official position of the governor of this small town is too high." I have wronged Aiqing, and now there is a good job vacancy, Aiqing will work so hard to share my worries."

Needless to say, awesome.

Zhengde probably didn't know what he wanted to say.

The jade seal in your hand is fake, dear.

But the emperor skipped this topic, there should be other things.

It sounds like he wants to promote his buddies?

The commander of Jinyiwei still fell on his own head.

To be honest, before going to Yihua Palace, Chen Jiu would definitely be very happy. After all, being promoted means an increase in title, and the position of commander of the third rank, at least a few hundred bonuses to all attributes.

But after eating the fire unicorn and the dragon's veins, he didn't care whether he was promoted or not. Titles had long since disappeared. To be promoted to a second-rank official position had little practical significance except for the nice name.

Chen Jiu cupped his hands.

"Doing things for the Holy One is the duty of a minister, not to mention hard work."

Everyone carried the sedan chair, and Zhengde gave him face, so he naturally didn't need to be looked down upon by others.

"Haha, it's great that Aiqing thinks so."

Zhengde smiled awkwardly and waved his hand.

"In that case, accept the order."

Looking at Zhengde's expression, Chen Jiu felt a little strange. He didn't understand why this guy showed such an expression, but after hearing the imperial edict read by Cao Zhengchun, he suddenly understood a little.

Zhengde did promote him.

The governor of Yingtianfu Town Fusi in Liudu, who also served as the commander of the Jiangnan capital, was granted the seal of the general of the second rank Zhenguo, and was granted the title of Marquis of Wanhu.

The titles are similar to Zeng Qinglong's. Most of the foreign surnames can be named a marquis. As for the rest of the positions, they are all empty positions.

In terms of rank, the commanding envoy of the capital is higher than the chief envoy, and judging from the ranking of the three departments in the province, it seems that Zhengde's move is to let him go to the local area to be the top leader.

but.

Although Nanzhen Fusi is a marginal unit, it is a capital official and is at the center of Ming Dynasty's political power. Zhengde's decree is no different from demoting him to Xiaoling to grow vegetables.

Let's put it this way, Zhang Haiduan, the chief assistant in the Liudu regime, is not as high as a servant in the sixth department of the capital.

The commander of the capital must take orders from the capital of the five armies, that is to say, he has to be under the management of the Ministry of War when he goes to the south of the Yangtze River.

When will the local military officer who reformed the Ming Dynasty have the right to control the soldiers and horses in the military town within the jurisdiction?
It will only be set temporarily when there is a war.

For example, Zhang Xueren, the new commander-in-chief of the Henan government, was rushed to take office after Chen Jiu reported that Yuan soldiers had the intention of being detained.

What kind of place is Liudu Yingtian Mansion? If there is a military disaster there, this Ming Dynasty is not far from the destruction of the country.

interesting.

Chen Jiu really wanted to hold Zhengde's ear and ask him.

Would you like to listen to what you are saying.

Zhengde reckoned and knew that Chen Jiu's dissatisfaction would be aroused by his explicit and secret orders.

But there is no way, Chen Jiu can't stay in the capital, this is the conclusion he came to after thinking for a long time.

He kept suppressing this matter before, because Zhu Wushi had always been his confidant's serious trouble, now that the emperor's uncle is subdued, Zhengde got a promise in Ningshou Palace, and now he has confidence.

A letter was handed over to Chen Jiu along with the imperial decree.

"Aiqing, it's getting late, you should start Qichen as soon as possible."

Zhengde was a little uncomfortable when facing Chen Jiu, so he quickly signaled him to leave quickly.

"Minister, leave."

Chen Jiu took the imperial decree and letter, took a deep look at Zhengde, and then walked away.

He glanced at the letter and immediately understood the reason for Zhengde's move.

This letter was sent back by Zhuge Zheng.

The content is simple.

Zhu Yunwen found it.

This is the reason why Zhengde made up his mind to drive Chen Jiu out of the capital.

The old man said that he would assist Zhu Yunqi in establishing a new Ming Dynasty.

Of course, what he said in his letter is to establish a foreign regime overseas and support this hard-working emperor to fulfill his wish. At that time, the two Ming dynasties will protect each other and jointly promote the country's prestige.

Faced with the sudden appearance of an old ancestor who should have been dead for a long time, Zhengde probably looked confused, but fortunately, the other party did not go back to Daming to fight for power, but to start business overseas.

As Zhuge Zhengwo's apprentice, Chen Jiu was implicated.

Your master and father-in-law want to establish a new regime, how can buddies trust you?
Needless to say, letting him go to Yingtianfu for the elderly is the best choice.

As for internal troubles Zhu Wushi and foreign troubles Yuan Ting, both of which were resolved, Zhengde didn't want to continue to use Chen Jiu.

What to do, just don't stay in the capital.

Chen Jiu carried the general seal and a bunch of official certificates sent by the little eunuch, and walked on the way home speechlessly.

My father-in-law wants to create a new Ming Dynasty.

Why didn't he hit the moon.

Well, I was still trying to figure out how to use this and that before, but now it's all right, nothing to worry about.

Cao Shaoqing, who was following behind him, hesitated to speak, and finally, he congratulated Chen Jiu in embarrassment.

"Congratulations, Mr. Chen, uh, congratulations to Gao Sheng."

It can be heard that he is at a loss for words.

Chen Jiu nodded.

"Elder-in-law, pay more attention in the days to come, and run away if something goes wrong, so don't lose your life for nothing."

Cao Shaoqing didn't understand what he meant, but Chen Jiu didn't want to explain.

As soon as he leaves the capital, the ghosts and monsters in the capital will emerge sooner or later.

Get ready, it's time for a storm.
