The distance from the capital to Jinling was not too far in the entire territory of the Qin Empire, but the speed of the convoy was not very fast. It walked slowly and leisurely for a hundred and eighty miles a day. This was because Li Chen deliberately controlled the speed.

He needs to give the vassal kings in the world some time to buffer, so that they can do what they need to do and prepare what they need to prepare.

This march south is a danger visible to the naked eye. No matter from which angle and level you look at it, it is bound to be an important political event that will affect the future direction of the entire Great Qin Empire. Therefore, Li Chen is not in a hurry, and King Wen and the vassal princes seem to be too.

Not in a hurry.

Along the way, Li Chen received various reports from the capital, including those from Xu Changqing, Fu Yuzhi, and others. There was also a report from Chen Tong reporting Xu Changqing's request to transfer to the East Factory.

Li Chen mostly ignored the former reports. When he replied, he just said a simple sentence about what he knew, or he had already read the reply which did not reveal his attitude and let them guess.

Li Chen only gave one word to Chen Tong's report.

allow.

The situation in the capital affects the whole world.

Although others are on their way south, the capital has always been the political center of the Qin Empire, and this will not change. The matters in the court are the stage for the game of all forces in the world. Some people want to stir up the muddy waters, and some people want to bring order to the chaos.

The various forces come and go as they please, and Li Chen's departure from Beijing actually gives them greater room for maneuver.

Moreover, this time he left the capital was completely different from the last time. The last time Li Chen left the capital secretly, in order to deal with the Liao army, it was related to the life and death of the entire country. Nothing was as important as this battle.

But this time it was an upright southern tour. Li Chen gave up the stage to see what they wanted to do, what they could do, and how far they could achieve it.

This 'them' includes those opponents who harbor evil intentions, as well as people like Xu Changqing.

This is a very large exam, which will directly affect Li Chen's future layout of the entire imperial personnel system. Li Chen is watching and grading, but Li Chen didn't say this, so no one can guess. This is what Jun

The heart is unpredictable.

As for the provocations and tests from his opponents, Li Chen also watched them without saying anything or doing anything. Since the stage was given away, he had to give them a space to perform.

Li Chen is very patient. A good hunter must possess this quality.

Before you take action, read more, listen more, and think more. After you decide to take action, no longer hesitate and strike with thunder.

The ancients have taught this a long time ago, it is as quiet as a virgin and as active as a stray rabbit, it is nothing more than this.

So at this time, Li Chen said nothing, and couldn't say anything. It was like watching a pantomime, listening to the thunder in the silence. The thunder that Li Chen wanted to hear has already begun, the sky is flashing with lightning, and the lightning snakes are thundering.

Dragon, the more lively the prelude is, the more tragic it will be when it ends.

After leaving Baoding Mansion, Li Chen never met any officials along the way. In these ten days, he only did three things.

Reading, drinking tea with Zhao Xuanji, and playing chess with Zhou Pingan.

However, what Li Chen didn't expect was that the first two things were very pleasant, but the last thing made him very unhappy.

Li Chen, who had been paying attention to the chessboard for a long time, raised his head and stared at Zhou Ping'an in front of him expressionlessly for a while, then threw away the chess piece and said angrily: "You win!"
