Chu Huan nodded with a smile, and suddenly thought of Mo Lingshuang, and wanted to ask Ling Shuang how she was doing, but it was difficult to ask, Ling Shuang was now with Ying Ren, and it would always be inappropriate to ask her again.

As the saying goes, when Cao Cao arrived, Chu Huan didn't mention Cao Cao, but only wanted to see Ling Shuang, but Ying Ren said softly: "By the way, Chu Huan, when you came back, you didn't see Miss Mo, she had already entered Palace."

Chu Huan nodded and said with a calm smile, "Miss Mo can adapt to life in the palace?"

Yingren smiled wryly, "After she entered the palace, I kept thinking whether it was right or wrong to bring her into the palace!"

"What do you mean by your highness?"

"I went to your mansion a few times before, and Ling Shuang always had a smile on her face." Yingren sighed softly, "But after entering the palace, I rarely saw her smile...!" It seemed that she was afraid that Chu Huan would misunderstand her feelings towards her. Ling Shuang is not good, and hastily explained: "It's not that I treat her badly, I just let her stay in my palace, I didn't slight her, let alone make her use foul language... Now it's not easy to reveal her identity, so I Let her study with me... Miss Ling Shuang likes to read, there is a library in my palace, and Ling Shuang is arranged by me in the library...!"

Chu Huan also felt a little sad. Yingren didn't know whether it was right or wrong to bring Ling Shuang into the palace, and he, Chu Huan, didn't know whether it was right or wrong to bring Ling Shuang into the palace. Soon, she may not be able to adapt to the environment in the palace, His Highness will give her some more time to slowly adapt...!"

Yingren smiled wryly, and then there was a gleam of hope in his eyes, and said: "You are right, she may not be used to life in the palace, but it doesn't matter, I will leave the palace soon, and I will bring Ling Shuang with me Going out of the palace, I hope she will be happy when the time comes...!" Then he sighed: "I know, she likes to be with those sisters in your mansion, and she is very happy when she is with them. , after leaving the palace and opening the mansion, she will be much more free, and then she can let Ling Shuang go there from time to time, but this time you all have to leave, I am only worried that she will not be happy in the future...!" Ying Ren looked He was quite bored, he managed to bring Ling Shuang into the palace, he thought that he would be happy after getting along day and night, but the result seemed to be different from what he had imagined.

"That's all." Yingren pondered for a while, and finally said: "Don't talk about this. By the way, I almost forgot one thing. You didn't come out together just now. The prince brother told me that you are going to the northwest. He is in the prince's mansion. I'll see you off, and someone will pick you up when the time comes."

"Prince see me off?" Chu Huan frowned.

Yingren nodded and said, "He said that, what do you mean by him?"

Chu Huan thought for a while, then shook his head and smiled, "Your Highness, you don't have to think too much. Since the crown prince has already spoken, let's go there when the time comes. We can't shame the crown prince."

After Chu Huan left the palace, he went back to the mansion. When he arrived at the mansion, he called Bai Xiazi, Lang Wazi, Qiu Ruxue, Du Fugong and others over. Everyone didn't know why Chu Huan suddenly called everyone here. After saying the emperor's will, everyone immediately looked at each other in blank dismay.

Du Fugong was no exception, showing surprise, stroking his long beard, but did not speak, but thoughtful.

"My lord, do you mean that we are all going to transfer from the capital to the northwest?" The blind white man was the first to say, "I don't understand, this... is this decree for promotion or demotion? My lord used to be the servant of the household department. You can often see the emperor, but now you go to the northwest, you will be far away from the emperor."

"Surrender, of course." Sun Tzukong interrupted immediately: "Boss Bai, when we came back from Xiliang, we passed through the Xiguan in the northwest. Look at what a good place it is? There are no people for dozens of miles, rotting corpses everywhere, ruined buildings... What is it like to be tossed about by Xiliang people?" He looked very experienced, "Do you understand what the Ministry of Accounts does? The Ministry of Accounts is a place for counting silver. Where is Xiguan? The master counts the silver well. Yes, but this time I was sent to that place where dogs don’t shit and birds don’t lay eggs. What do you think is a good thing?”

Sun Zikong was filled with righteous indignation. Du Fugong and Qiu Ruxue had never seen the tragedy of Xiguan Road, but when his grandson returned from Xiliang, he followed the mission to see it with his own eyes. When he thought of Chu Huan being transferred to such a ghostly place, Sun Zikong felt that Chu Huan had been greatly wronged. In his opinion, staying in the prosperous capital was much better than going to the Northwest for a job.

Chu Huan frowned and said, "Zikong, don't talk nonsense."

Sun Tzu was unwilling to reconcile, but he didn't dare to say too much.

The blind man was also worried: "Sir, is there someone tripping you up behind your back? You have contributed so much to the court... this court...!" He hesitated for a while.After all, he didn't go on.

Chu Huan looked at Qiu Ruxue, and said with a smile, "Brother Qiu, I'm afraid I won't be able to stay in the capital this time. I'm going to the northwest, where the mountains are high and the road is far away, but I don't know what your plan is?"

Qiu Ruxue said: "I haven't researched the sword technique yet, I'm afraid I'll follow my lord to the northwest."

Chu Huan nodded and smiled and said, "That's very good." Turning to Bai Xiazi, he said, "Old Bai, the Holy Majesty ordered me to go to the northwest as soon as possible, so I don't have a few days to prepare. Find a few boxes in your house Time, send it to the wine shop on Jinyu Street, and let them find a way to send it to Yunshan Mansion, and hand it over to Dong Su's family!"

The blind man knew that Chu Huan was going out of Beijing, and there were many people, so it was definitely not convenient for him to bring those boxes full of gold and silver treasures. He nodded and said, "Don't worry, my lord, leave this matter to me."

"It's better for you to assist the wine shop to deliver the things to Yunshan Mansion." Chu Huan said, "You should leave early and meet up in Tongzhou."

The blind white man cupped his fists and said yes.

Chu Huan told Sun Zikong again: "Zukong, pack up the things that can be used in the house, and you can go and tell your wife that you can find someone to sell some things that are not needed and exchange them for money, so that they can buy them as well." Get ready, we're leaving anytime." Thinking of something.Turning to the blind man, he said, "Old Bai, you are going to Yunshan on this trip, and you will also take your family to the northwest. The journey is far away. We may not be able to come back in the northwest in a year or two. Take care of your family with you." good."

The blind man thanked him gratefully.

After the order was finished, Chu Huan asked everyone to retreat first, leaving Du Fugong alone, and asked with a smile: "Mr. Du, you have helped me a lot, and I am grateful. I wonder what your plan is when you go to the northwest this time? If you don't want to go with me, I will leave you a generous settling allowance, and you can freely choose to stay or stay."

Duke Fu thought about it for a while, and then suddenly asked: "What do you think, my lord, about going to the Northwest this time?"

"No matter what I think, I can only follow the orders of the Holy Majesty." Chu Huan sighed softly, "The road to Xiguan is in a mess. Even I don't know whether it is a blessing or a curse to go to Xiguan."

Du Fu stroked his beard and said, "Actually, Du thinks it might not be a good thing."

"Oh?" Chu Huan was taken aback, "Why did you say that, sir?"

"The capital is a place of right and wrong, and staying away from it is not a bad thing." Du Fugong said slowly: "My lord was originally on business in Anyi, but the emperor recalled you and arranged for you to go to the northwest to take up the post. Du felt that the emperor might From the very beginning, it was prepared for the adults to rectify Xiguan."

"The courtiers also recommended a few people, but due to various reasons, they were not accepted by the Holy Majesty." Chu Huan said: "It was the crown prince who recommended them, and the Holy Majesty agreed."

"The prince is very smart." Du Fugong said with a faint smile: "The prince may really want you to leave, but if the emperor doesn't have that intention, he might not recommend you!"

"Oh?" Chu Huan rubbed his chin, "Mr. Du seems to see something?"

Du Fu laughed and said: "My lord should know that Du likes to talk nonsense."

"Sir, you don't have to say that." Chu Huan said sternly, "Mr. is a wise man. If you have anything to say, just tell me. Mister should be able to see that I have always regarded you as a friend."

Du Fugong smiled slightly, and finally said: "According to the logic, your lord is in the limelight, and the emperor should stay by his side for reuse, but... the emperor called your lord to the northwest. Your lord should understand the emperor's thoughts?"

Chu Huan rubbed his forehead and said with a wry smile, "Mr. Du, actually... I really don't understand much."

"It seems that the emperor really attaches great importance to adults." Du Fugong said slowly: "I don't know whether Du is right or wrong, but Du feels that the emperor is cultivating adults on purpose."

"Cultivation?"

"Your Excellency rose up because of King Qi." Du Fu said fairly: "No matter what Your Excellency thinks, in anyone's opinion, Your Excellency is a member of the Qi Royal Party, and an important figure in the Qi Royal Party."

Chu Huan said: "So what?"

"Your Excellency is more aware of the current situation than I am. The emperor's fourth son, the eldest son of the emperor died in battle early, and the third son, King Han, has lost power. Now only the prince and King Qi are left." Du Fugong said slowly: "Even a blind person can see that the emperor will die in a hundred years. , the successor can only choose one from the crown prince and the king of Qi. If your lord stays in the capital, in order to save the throne, whether you like it or not, you will be involved in the struggle between the princelings and the king of Qi... Your lord should be more aware , throughout the ages, involved in party struggles, endless disasters...!"

Knowing that Mr. Du Fu can tell the truth, he already regarded himself as his own. He nodded and said, "Mr. Du means, Your Majesty...does not want me to be involved in party disputes?"

"Du is just guessing." Du Fugong said slowly: "Perhaps the emperor didn't care much at the time. For emperors throughout the ages, if they want to have a stable throne, a trade-off is essential. My lord, I hope to use my lord to promote the king of Qi, but my lord is capable of doing things, the emperor sees it and appreciates it, so I don't want my lord to get involved in party disputes, but I hope my lord can be used by him!"

Chu Huan sighed: "Is it possible that the shore of the land is the king's minister? Even if I get closer to King Qi, I will still be the emperor's minister."

Du Fugong said with a smile: "Your Excellency, you really think so?" He had a half-smile, and usually looked very low-key, but now his eyes were shining brightly.
