"No?" Xiao Chen didn't know why Gong Shouli suddenly became nagging.
"I don't think so either, but if there is, it must be the Emperor." Gong Shouli smiled indifferently, which was meaningful.
At dinner time, Chen Ming suddenly came to see Xiao Chen, which surprised Xiao Chen. What are you doing here at this time? You are still a member of Jin Yiwei, don't you know how to cover up others' eyes?
"The emperor asked me to come to see you, boss, before I leave, and ask you for advice." Chen Ming frowned and said, "Boss, what on earth is going on?"
"Damn it, you kid doesn't suspect that I kidnapped Liu Ruyun, right?" Xiao Chen said, "Did the Emperor ask you to ask me that?"
"No... I just thought about it for a while when I first learned about it." Chen Ming hesitated, but it turned out to be true.
"Who the hell do you think I am!" Xiao Chen was very angry.
"Boss, do you think there are any risks in this job?" Chen Ming asked.
"Wealth can be found in danger. How can you get promoted and make a fortune without taking risks?" Xiao Chen said with a smile.
"Boss, I feel confident when you smile like that, so what should I do this time?" Chen Ming breathed a sigh of relief.
"Just do what the emperor says, do it if you can, and go back if you can't." Xiao Chen said, "But I think Liu Ruyun has a good chance of winning."
"If Liu Ruyun becomes the Queen of Myanmar, we will definitely have to establish contact with her in the future, right? Then should I reveal my identity to Liu Ruyun?" Chen Ming asked.
"No, your current identity is not easy to be exposed. The fewer people know about it, the better." Xiao Chen said.
"Boss, the emperor summoned me some time ago. It seemed that he wanted me to rebuild the West Factory in the Inner Palace, or to set up an independent department in the palace, and let me be the factory owner or the governor, not under the control of the Jin Yiwei and the ceremonial supervisor. Just now he mentioned
He said, "If I perform well here, he can legitimately promote me..." Chen Mingdao.
"No!" Xiao Chen immediately rejected it without thinking.
"Ah?" Chen Ming was startled by Xiao Chen's fierce reaction, "Boss, you don't think so? I thought you must be very happy."
"I'm so happy. If you become the governor of a factory or something like this, you're dead!" Xiao Chen said.
"Why?" Chen Ming was confused.
"Li Wanjiang wants you to do dirty work for him, the shady kind! For example, assassinating the prince... As long as you do one of these things, you will get into trouble and you will definitely die, because Li Wanjiang will kill you sooner or later.
Kill and silence!"
"There is also another section. The emperor feels that Zhu Xiaochuan and Wu Zicheng are too powerful, so he wants to set up a department with similar powers to Jinyiwei to check and balance them. So if you accept this job, it will be considered as a complete blow to Zhu Xiaochuan and Wu Zicheng.
If you offend these two people, they will kill you sooner or later!"
"You have no foundation at all in the court, and your qualifications in Jinyiwei are not very high. I am far away in Yanyun and can't help you. How can you fight with others? Besides, Zhu Xiaochuan is an old fox. He has a deep foundation in the court, and he is Li Wanjiang.
He is his confidant, so you can't defeat him no matter whether you fight openly or secretly."
"Oh, I was quite happy originally, but when you said that, boss, I broke into a cold sweat!" Chen Ming was shocked to hear this, "But I can't disobey the emperor's will. If he insists on me taking this job,
What should I do?"
"You go to Zhu Xiaochuan and hint to him what the emperor told you, and he will naturally know what to do." Xiao Chen said, "You have to remember that the emperor cannot be your backer because you are simply unreliable. Only Zhu Xiaochuan can."
Okay, you have to show your loyalty to him and let him know that you, Chen Ming, will always be his!"
"I understand." Chen Ming agreed repeatedly and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
"Chen Ming, you have a special status and are in a dangerous situation. You must be cautious. You must remember that if you encounter any emergency, you must save yourself first before considering other things. Nothing is more important than your life!
If you keep your life, there is hope. If you lose your life, everything else is nonsense!" Xiao Chen was serious.
If someone else said this, Chen Ming would really listen to it, but if Xiao Chen said this, he would really listen to it.
The reason why Chen Ming is willing to follow him is because he is good to his brothers. No matter when, he will never abandon his brothers.
Chen Ming left, and the fat man Li Hong came again. The emperor did not ask him to come to see Xiao Chen, but he came on his own. Xiao Chen had been to Burma and helped Burma eliminate the scourge of Prince Saiba.
I am very familiar with the country and have friends, so I came here to ask for advice before leaving.
"If anything happens to me while I'm here, little brother, my family will be entrusted to you, sir." His words were tragic.
"Well, it's quite dangerous to go here." Xiao Chen said in a deep voice.
"Ah? Your Excellency sees it that way too, I know damn well!" Li Hong flew up in an instant.
"The road to Myanmar is long and rugged. You, Fatty Li, must choose a good mule mule. Otherwise, if you accidentally fall off, your life will be in danger!" Xiao Chen touched his big belly and laughed.
"At this time, Mr. Xiao, you are still joking with me!" Li Hong said angrily.
"No kidding, do you know how many people fall off their horses and die every year? You need to be careful. I have a few big green mules here. They are tame, docile, tall and strong and can go a long way. You can take them all with you when you come back. Don't worry.
If you try to ride a horse like them, there are many mountain roads in the south and there are many wild animals, so the horse will be frightened easily." Xiao Chen said.
"Then thank you sir, you are the only one who cares about my little brother... But what I am worried about is the Burmese side." Li Hong frowned and said, "I am a minister of the Ministry of Industry, but I am lucky enough to end up in such a bad job. You
Don’t you think it’s bad luck?”
"Haha, some people want you to be unlucky, but I don't allow you to be unlucky." Xiao Chen said with a smile, "You can rest assured that everything will go very smoothly. Why? Just because you, Fatty Li, look like Maitreya Buddha.
May you have great blessings and great destiny, and the Bodhisattva will bless you.”
"This is my little brother's idea. Sir, can you listen to it?" Li Hong was not in the mood to joke, "If Liu Ruyun fails to ascend the throne smoothly, our job will be a failure. Maybe the emperor will not blame him, but he will be in a mess when he comes back.
, if Liu Ruyun ascends the throne, you say she sneaked out and followed us Da Zhou..."
Li Hong's worries were not entirely unreasonable. He also knew a little about Liu Ruyun, who was quite ruthless. If she planned to fall out with Da Zhou, would her and Chen Ming's lives be in danger?
"You can rest assured about this. After all, Concubine Liu is still the concubine of our Zhou Dynasty. She is a relative of us. Besides, she will need our strong support after she ascends the throne. She will never turn her back and deny anyone... You
Remember, no matter what conditions and demands she puts forward to you, you must agree and come back to report to the emperor."
Xiao Chen has a good relationship with Li Hong, so he is willing to give him a few more pointers, but this is limited to this and cannot go too deep.
