During this period of time, Li Chen's entire work focused on one thing, which was to fight against the Liao Kingdom.
After completing the counterinsurgency and dealing with Li Yinhu, and following the implementation of the New Deal, Xu Changqing and other officials could clearly feel the changes in the entire work rhythm and focus of the East Palace.
For officials, it is not enough to just do their job well. If they want to be promoted and gain greater power, another very important thing is to understand the upper body and heavenly mind.
Understand the leader's ideas and do what the leader wants to do in time and in advance. This is called being an official and being versatile.
Xu Changqing, as a recognized confidant of the East Palace, is naturally very aware of this.
He immediately responded: "Your Highness, don't worry, I will do my best to assist the Crown Princess."
Li Chen gave Xu Changqing a meaningful look and said: "The rhythm and scene are controlled by the Crown Princess, but after all, the Crown Princess is not familiar with the origin and temperament of every rich man, but you, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, should know better.
, so you must do this well, I have great expectations for you."
No matter how big an official becomes, even if he reaches the top, there will still be an emperor above him.
In today's Great Qin Empire, the one at the top is not His Majesty the Daxing Emperor, who is lying in the Qianqing Palace with only half a breath hanging, but the Crown Prince in front of him.
Therefore, Li Chen's words greatly encouraged Xu Changqing, and he immediately responded: "Thank you for your trust, Your Highness."
"Okay, let's go back. It's windy outside, and there's still a tough battle to be fought tonight."
Li Chen stretched, turned around and said, "Come, come back to the palace."
The large team of people immediately got busy and started working to protect His Royal Highness the Crown Prince from returning safely to the East Palace.
But Xu Changqing did not go to the East Palace with the team.
His Highness the Crown Prince has made his words so clear. If he still doesn't understand what's going on, he will be serving as an official for nothing.
Taking advantage of the fact that there were still an hour or two before dark, Xu Changqing had to hurry back to the Household Department to find out the information of the wealthy people attending the dinner, so that he could answer all questions when the Crown Princess needed them.
The answers were fluent.
At the same time, inside the post house in the capital.
Nangong Shouzhong held a snuff bottle in his hand, sniffing it gently, feeling the refreshing fragrance, and heard the noisy sound like flies in his ears.
"I don't know what this imperial court means. They even coaxed and deceived us to come to the capital. They didn't say anything to me along the way. They just said that it was His Highness the Crown Prince's invitation. That was all. They didn't say anything about returning home.
But they took away every penny of the money that was sent to them, and they took the money but did nothing. These hawks and dogs are really disgusting!"
The person who said this was Mr. Jin from Su City. He opened a silk and satin shop all over the country. He could be said to be the leader of the Qin Empire in the silk industry.
Even the clothes Nangong Shouzhong himself wore were bought by his family.
It's just that in the capital, no one dares to wear it outside, but who doesn't want to get some close-fitting, soft and silky satin to wear under the coat?
Is it really possible to wear linen clothes and plain robes?
Mr. Liu's complaint attracted many echoing voices. It was obvious that these normally pampered men had suffered a lot along the way, but no one took the lead, so everyone just didn't say anything.
Now that someone is in the spotlight, naturally they are full of complaints and want to vent their frustrations.
