After thinking for a long time, Chen Tong realized that this problem was not something he could solve, but he was already involved. If he didn't figure it out, he couldn't stay out of it.
So Chen Tong gritted his teeth, got up and returned to Dongchang.
After a while, Sanbao met Chen Tong in the study.
"Commander Chen has just returned from Xishan Province. He came to see our Lord after leaving the East Palace. But what orders does His Highness have for Commander Chen to pass on?" Sanbao cupped his hands and said very politely. Between his gestures and words, there was nothing he could say.
There is half the way my boss used to boss around his subordinates.
Chen Tong's face turned red for a while. He walked up to Sanbao, raised his hand and bowed deeply, and said sincerely: "Please save me, Mr. Factory."
Seeing this, Sanbao was speechless, and hurriedly helped Chen Tong up and asked: "Commander Chen, what difficulty does he have? It doesn't have to be like this. Commander Chen just says it, and our factory will definitely help if he can."
Chen Tong gritted his teeth and said: "Mr. Factory, some time ago, I was indeed a little carried away. Please forgive me."
Sanbao waved his hands with a smile and said: "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. Who didn't come here when he was young and vigorous? The commander now has the trust of His Highness, so he should die for His Highness."
Chen Tong was impatient at the moment and did not have the patience to play riddles with Sanbao. He said: "I did encounter a difficult situation today. I have a hunch that if I don't handle it well, I will be shattered to pieces, but I still can't figure it out in the middle of the game.
I can’t see clearly, so I’d like to ask the factory boss for some guidance. I won’t forget how much you helped me in times of need, and I’ll definitely be richly rewarded one day!”
Immediately afterwards, Chen Tong poured out everything that happened today...
Sanbao narrowed his eyes slightly and listened in detail.
By the time Chen Tong finished speaking, the three treasures were almost counted.
The advantage of Chen Tong compared to San Bao is that he is young and does not have the shadow of the Daxing Emperor. For Prince Li Chen, he is a more useful and reliable person.
And Sanbao has many advantages over Chen Tong.
Political skills, city government, cunning.
These skills necessary to survive in the palace have already been practiced to perfection by Sanbao.
Therefore, the problems that troubled Chen Tong were completely clear to Sanbao.
After thinking for a moment, Sanbao glanced at Chen Tong who looked anxious, smiled slightly, and already had a plan.
"You are confused about this matter."
Sanbao did not show off, and explained: "Long Tiande came to you to send a message. This matter is not unusual, because he is afraid. He is afraid that the imperial court will raze the entire Xishan Province to the ground in anger. Anyway, now there is a natural disaster plus rebellion. If it is used
This kind of method will at worst mean that the court will have another two years of hard life, and His Highness will tighten his belt. If it can be done, no matter how weak the court is, it will not be able to resist a few local tycoon militia in Xishan Province."
"So Long Tiande is afraid, and the gentry and wealthy groups in Xishan Province are even more afraid. This is just the effect achieved by His Highness sending Zhao Heshan. If the imperial army really attacks the border, then Long Tiande can still maintain his airs.
?”
"Long Tiande hopes to negotiate with the imperial court, or to negotiate with His Highness."
"But the problem is that since the negotiation, he has to control his posture in order to retain more power and benefits. It is best to continue to be his local emperor in Xishan Province."
"So he asked you to send a message and sent an envoy, but he didn't come forward."
"If the prince meets this messenger, no matter what they talk about, this action will mean that the prince admits that he, Long Tiande, can negotiate on the same level as the prince."
