Choice? Gao Changzhuo looked at Li Yunxing in disbelief.

This is the first time I heard that His Highness the Crown Prince also makes choices for subordinate officials.

Compared with the excitement of being taken seriously, Gao Changzhuo felt something hot in his heart.

Although the test just now gave Gao Changzhuo some ideas, when the thing really came, Gao Changzhuo still couldn't help but feel excited.

"I am willing to listen to His Highness the Crown Prince's words."

"The first option is that you can continue to stay in Jingzhou. Su Tianyang is dead and the position of governor is vacant. I can promote you to be the governor of Jingzhou and take charge of all the affairs of Jingzhou. In Jingzhou, you are the head of a state. From top to bottom in Jingzhou

No one dares to disobey your orders!"

"But you have to know that Jingzhou is now a barren land with limited resources. And my request is that you should seize this opportunity to make Jingzhou prosperous!"

The governor of Jingzhou is, to put it bluntly, the local emperor of a state.

When the emperor did not personally intervene in county-related matters, the governor was the ruler of the entire state.

If we can manage Jingzhou well, it will be a great achievement, and we will surely rise to great heights in the future.

What's more, the governor of Jingzhou can also intervene in local finance. Su Tianyang made a lot of personal gains by relying on his position as governor.

With such generous conditions, no one can resist the temptation.

Otherwise, Liu Zhongqing would not have specially arranged for Su Tianyang to be the governor of Jingzhou. Such a good job, but it fell on Gao Changzhuo? It made him feel very uneasy.

But this also made him more curious about what the other option was.

Gao Changzhuo took a deep breath and suppressed the turmoil in his heart: "Your Highness, please advise me on the second choice!"

As soon as Gao Changzhuo finished speaking, Li Yunxing spoke again.

"As for the second point, you can leave Jingzhou and go to the imperial court to seek a higher position. But this position is not given to you by this palace. You must fight for it yourself."

"I know that you have been hiding in Jiangling City, pretending to be a low-level official with no ambitions. Just because there is a giant in Jingzhou, you dare not take the lead. But the current situation in Jiangling City, I see that the people are prosperous and their families are happy.

Joy, this is all brought by you, so I can give you a chance."

"The Wu Dynasty has a vast territory and abundant resources, and its territory is thousands of miles. It is definitely not comparable to this small city. Now, the behemoth has collapsed. If you are willing to leave Jiangling and travel in the vast world, it is not a bad idea. If you can create your own in the Wu Dynasty

A piece of heaven and earth, then you will leave your name in history in the future. Even your descendants will benefit from it..."

After hearing the end, Gao Changzhuo's eyes gradually turned red.

Li Yunxing paused and observed the other party's expression.

Seeing Gao Changzhuo clenching his hands tightly, obviously very nervous, he paused and continued.

"As long as you perform well, you may be able to have a higher official title and greater rights than the governor of Jingzhou. But it may be accompanied by suffering and fatigue day and night. Associating with me, you are destined to...

It's hard to live comfortably above the court. They can't touch me, so they will naturally start with you. Not only must you do a good job in this position, but you must also be fair and aboveboard, so that they can make no mistakes."

"Both of these carry high risks and corresponding rewards. If you want to soar into the sky, you must endure suffering that is unbearable for ordinary people."

Gao Changzhuo fell into deep thought, his face was uncertain, and he was obviously hesitating.

No matter which one of these two conditions, it is a very rich temptation, attractive enough, but also full of hardships and difficulties.

Li Yunxing observed Gao Changzhuo quietly, his eyes getting deeper and deeper.

Gao Changzhuo was silent for a long time, and finally raised his hands and saluted: "I am willing to assist His Highness the Crown Prince!"

Since Li Yunxing proposed two different options, Gao Changzhuo naturally knew that Li Yunxing was not acting on a whim, so he had no reason to refuse.

Gao Changzhuo chose the latter because he naturally hoped to gain more rights.

He is an ambitious man who wants to stand at the pinnacle of power and control the life and death of others.

He had been dormant in Su Tianyang's shadow for several years, and he was really unwilling to succumb to him again.

Li Yunxing smiled and said: "Very good! Then I will assign you the first task."

"In the near future, five hundred thousand taels of silver will be brought to Jiangling City in Jingzhou. You will deposit it into a special fund for disaster relief, but you will secretly recruit soldiers and horses to expand your manpower."

Hearing this, Gao Changzhuo raised his head suddenly. Is the prince planning to create private soldiers? This is a serious crime of rebellion!

Li Yunxing must have misunderstood when he saw his expression.

Then he added, "There has been a rebellion in the north of Jingzhou, and I need a strong army to guard the palace."

Is there a rebel party in the north of Jingzhou? Gao Changzhuo was surprised. He always thought that Jingzhou was in a peaceful and prosperous time, so how could rebels suddenly appear?

"Don't worry, Your Highness, I will live up to my trust."

Li Yunxing nodded with satisfaction, then reached out and patted Gao Changzhuo on the shoulder: "Jingzhou is the throat of the Sili Imperial Capital. If Jingzhou is lost, the entire Sili region will be in danger. I hope you can carry this heavy burden on yourself!

"

"Wei Chen must do his best!"

Gao Changzhuo assured, and then asked: "Then, besides recruiting soldiers, do you want the ministers to do anything else?"

"Yeah. Maybe a blacksmith named Chen Jinyan will come to you in the near future. If he intends to surrender, make him a general and lead troops for training."

"Chen... Jinyan?" Gao Changzhuo was very unfamiliar with this name and seemed to have never heard of this person before.

"He was once the former subordinate of General Lian Zhan, the protector of the country. He not only understands military power and strategy, but also has considerable experience in weapon forging. With his help, I will definitely be able to get twice the result with half the effort in attacking the rebels in Jingzhou."

Gao Changzhuo thought of Lian Zhan, the brave general who protected the country.

Come to think of it, this Chen Jinyan must also be a fierce general, right?

Gao Changzhuo was shocked, but he quickly regained his composure.

"Every account of these five hundred thousand taels must be clear and clear. I want to see where every copper coin is spent. Remember, this is the first task I give you, and it can also be the last.

one."

Li Yunxing spoke with a compelling aura, as if he was warning Gao Changzhuo: If you can't complete it, then I will consider removing you from your position and replacing you with a more suitable candidate.

"I accept the decree!" Gao Changzhuo solemnly agreed, feeling a little uneasy in his heart.

After Li Yunxing finished explaining, he left, leaving Gao Changzhuo alone sitting there.

He originally thought that he would be trapped in this small town for the rest of his life. He had watched Su Tianyang dominate Jiangling and oppress the people, but he still couldn't do anything about him.

Now, Li Yunxing has given him a new opportunity, which is like a dream!

Gao Changzhuo clenched his fists, his eyes flashed with madness and heat.
