The most powerful emperor grandson of the Tang Dynasty

Eunuch Xia saw Fang Yiai had finished reading, but he did not say anything, because he had to give him some time to think about it. What should be done about these things? Xiao Shougui was responsible for giving advice, while Eunuch Xia and Fang Yiai were responsible for the actual work. However, Eunuch Xia actually played a supervisory role. If he were to really do it, he might not be able to do it well.

Eunuch Xia knew his own abilities, so he just stayed by and watched how Fang Yiai operated. He only needed to write down everything and then send it to the northwest by express horse, then his mission would be accomplished. As for how Fang Yiai operated in the meantime, it was not his business to interfere.

Although His Highness did not explain, he knew his responsibilities very well. On some small matters, perhaps he could use his thinking a little, but on national affairs, it is better to listen to the adults in front. Because of cognitive problems, the eunuchs said less on these matters. This is also what Li Xiang has always taught them.

Li Xiang did not adopt a one-size-fits-all approach to the use of these eunuchs, but instead divided them into a range. You can think divergently about some things, but for some things you just need to be a bystander. At this place, Eunuch Xia's responsibility is to watch.

"I didn't expect the northwest to be so chaotic. Now that Your Highness has spoken, I will definitely find a way to get people over. Persuasion is unlikely, and so is profit. So I think if we want to get the Goguryeo people over, we can only talk to them with steel knives. This is faster and we can recruit more people."

Fang Yiai thought for a moment and said, "You can't have any luck when doing something like this, so you have to use a steel knife to do it. You see, these people from Goguryeo are very kind to you on the surface, but do you know what they are thinking? Do you really think he is one of your own? If you really think he is one of your own, then you will lose a lot."

Take Fang Yiai for example. He has indeed been promoting his family all these years, but he knows very clearly in his heart that those who serve him might kill him if they find a chance. So no matter how much he trusts these people, he always has to have two guards with knives around him.

These people are the guards assigned by Your Highness. They can even fight for days without getting tired. With these people, we can live a good life. As for the local Goguryeo people, you can use them, praise them, and even reward them, but you must never trust them. If you really treat them as your own people, you will be the one who suffers the most in the future.

Eunuch Xia was also shocked. According to the impression Goguryeo gave everyone in the past two years, even if persuasion was not good, there was no need to use a steel knife to speak. He thought that the people here had changed a lot, but after listening to Fang Yiai's words, he realized that what we saw were all superficial phenomena, and only Fang Yiai saw the real situation.

"Then everything will be done as your Excellency said. I will not say anything more. According to your Highness' order, from the moment I arrive here, I can only give you fifteen days at most. The first batch of Goguryeo people will be on their way. The main reason is that the journey is too long. Even if we hurry, it will take more than four months."

Thinking of his helplessness along the way, Eunuch Xia didn't know what to say. The carriages were moving almost day and night. Fortunately, after Li Xiang's modification, the shock absorption effect of these carriages was very good, but even so, Eunuch Xia felt sad. No matter how stable the carriage was, it was a life-threatening thing for anyone to spend 80% of the time in the carriage every day. However, Li Xiang's orders had to be conveyed quickly, so they rushed all the way. If they encountered a good weather day, they would not use the carriage and just ride fast horses to rush forward.

"That's no problem. It's written here that a batch will be sent out every month. I'll try to get the first batch over first. We'll select them from among the highest-ranking people. They've served us for a long time, so they won't have any other ideas after they go there."

Hearing Fang Yiai's words, Eunuch Xia was confused. How come there are still different levels here? Are people still different? I have never heard of this before. I have always been by His Highness' side. Don't I know about these things in the local area?
"Eunuch Xia, you don't know that we divide the Goguryeo people into five categories. The first category is the people who are closest to us and can come to work for us. The second category is slightly inferior, but can also be used. The third category is in the middle faction. The fourth category is a little unfriendly to us. The fifth category is naturally the rebels."

After hearing Fang Yiai's words, Eunuch Xia who was standing nearby was also stunned. He didn't expect that people could be divided into categories. No wonder he saw Arabic numerals on some people's bodies when he came here. These Arabic numerals were also introduced by His Highness. It's true that with these things, calculating accounts is much faster than before, especially in writing. Our Chinese characters can also express these numbers, but the problem is that by the time you finish writing, the cucumber dish will probably be cold.

Fang Yiai is going to capture a group of top-notch people. These people don't have much room to display their talents locally. They shout slogans here every day, saying they will live and die for the Tang Dynasty. In the past, there were not many opportunities for you to fulfill these promises. Now, you finally have a chance to see whether you are sincere or not.

"Go and get Jin Yuanzhijue."

In front of Eunuch Xia, Fang Yiai began to give orders. After all, Eunuch Xia was the military supervisor and had to watch the entire process here. He would also have to report to His Highness after returning. The letter clearly stated that Eunuch Xia was now the imperial envoy and could not hide anything.

Kim Won-sik is one of our puppet leaders in the local area. He is also one of the first to surrender. All tasks are assigned to him, and at least there have been no mistakes so far.

Hearing that someone was coming from Chang'an, Jin Yuanzhi had been waiting outside. Now that the master had finally summoned him, he would show up in front of the angel. (End of this chapter)
