After Wu Zhao lost his temper, Ning Chen said very shamelessly: "As expected, you are the only one who cares about me the most."
Wu Zhao ignored Ning Chen's increasingly rogue behavior and said bluntly: "Today you must explain to me why you did this?"
This is our own little group, and it doesn't matter if we say a few words.
Kong Jijiu was in seclusion, and Prince Jing was not online. Although Marquis Dingguo was doing gossip online, Marquis Dingguo was also used to enjoying the gossip to himself.
So it doesn't hurt to explain this matter clearly, because there are only two people like this, and I'm not afraid of how many [loyalty] points they can provide to me.
"I asked Zhou Dingzeng to go back mainly to save him and recommend a more suitable state pastor to you." Ning Chen said to Wu Zhao.
After hearing Ning Chen's words, Wu Zhao became even more puzzled: "Since you think Zhou Dingzeng is more suitable to be promoted to Yuzhou's state pastor, then you should let him stay in Yuzhou to work.
If you drive him back from Yuzhou now, you will lose the possibility of his promotion."
As soon as Ning Chen heard what Wu Zhao said, he knew that Zhou Dingzeng must not have explained the matter clearly to Wu Zhao.
Ning Chen immediately told Wu Zhao what happened here again.
After Wu Zhao heard this, he immediately understood what Ning Chen wanted to do.
“Moving the border and banning the sea is a good idea, but it will offend many people and cause public resentment.
This is indeed a very offensive job, and you were right to ask Zhou Dingzeng to avoid it.
Only if he is not hated by the people of Yuzhou will he be more recognized when he returns to Yuzhou."
Ning Chen saw that Wu Zhao had understood the meaning behind this, and immediately said happily: "Now you understand my good intentions. I don't want Zhou Dingzeng to sink deeper and deeper into the quagmire.
Just take him out first, and then let him come back to replace Li Tai after the situation becomes clear."
Now that Li Tai was mentioned, Ning Chen couldn't help but say a few more words: "Apart from corruption, Li Tai is a mess in everything else.
On the contrary, Zhou Dingzeng knew the situation in Yuzhou very well.
He even knows some of the information below, which is very rare.
If he is allowed to return to Yuzhou, Yuzhou should be able to take on a completely new look."
Wu Zhao also agreed and said: "Li Tai is indeed not only incompetent but also seriously corrupt.
However, he has a close relationship with the clan, so if you can't find a suitable reason, get rid of him.
It will cause a lot of unnecessary trouble, so that’s why he was allowed to be the state pastor for so long.”
Ning Chen snapped his fingers and said: "Don't you think this opportunity will come? Moving the border and banning the sea has caused public resentment and even triggered a major conflict between the army and the people.
If you take down such a big pot and punish the nine tribes, there is nothing to say."
Wu Zhao was silent for a moment, and said a little aggrievedly for Ning Chen: "But if this happens, it will also have a great impact on your reputation."
Ning Chen said righteously: "My reputation is nothing if I can help you share your worries."
After a pause, Ning Chen said: "Besides, as long as you care about me, a mere grievance is nothing."
He had just returned his righteous words, but as soon as he turned around he started teasing her again, which also caused Wu Zhao to lose a little bit of the emotion he had just accumulated.
"I will explain this matter clearly to Zhou Dingzeng for you when the time comes?"
Hearing that Wu Zhao was going to ruin his good deeds, Ning Chen quickly stopped him and said, "Your Majesty, you must never tell Zhou Dingzeng about this."
After a pause, Ning Chen added: "I mean it's best not to tell Zhou Dingzeng until the border relocation and sea ban are completed.
That person Zhou Dingzeng is stubborn. After you tell him, when he comes back, all my previous plans will be wasted.
When Li Tai knows my plan, it will be impossible for you to replace Li Tai."
After listening to Ning Chen's words, Wu Zhao thought about it and felt that Ning Chen was right.
It’s not easy to get this opportunity now, if you don’t seize it well.
If Li Tai really knew the reason for the matter, he would be able to alert the snake by then.
"I will do this as you say. I will tell Zhou Dingzeng after everything is settled." Wu Zhao agreed to Ning Chen's request.
Ning Chen felt relieved when he saw that Wu Zhao agreed.
Finally, half a month passed, and in another half month, I had a large amount of [Yi] clicks coming in.
At this time, you must not fall short.
If you don't look at anything else, just look at the points that the fishermen who are affected by the relocation and sea ban provide themselves every day. They are all very impressive figures.
At the same time, we can also see from these numbers how thoroughly Li Tai carried out his orders.
In fact, Li Tai's execution was indeed very thorough and he worked very hard.
Not only did Li Tai move the people away directly, but Li Tai also wanted to prevent them from secretly going to sea.
All their fishing boats were scuttled.
You don't even have the tools to go out to sea, so you have to follow us.
It's surprising that the fishermen can't complain about such ruthless tactics.
In addition, Li Tai was doing things under the banner of Ning Chen, so all these [sycophants] points were naturally transferred to Ning Chen.
Ning Chen was naturally happy to accept these.
Another seven days have passed, and there are only eight days left before the last time Ning Chen gave Li Tai.
But on the night of the seventh day, Li Tai returned to the government office after a long journey.
Looking at Li Tai, who was obviously tanned and thin, Ning Chen knew that Li Tai had really worked hard to do things for him in the past twenty days.
"Champion King, I'm so lucky to have fulfilled my mission and completed the move to ban the sea eight days ahead of schedule." Li Tai knelt down with excitement on his face and asked Ning Chen for credit.
In fact, Ning Chen didn't need Li Tai to say anything, just by looking at Li Tai's expression, Ning Chen knew that Li Tai was here to take credit.
If Li Tai wants to take credit, Ning Chen will naturally give it to him.
Who doesn’t have a good meal before he dies?
Ning Chen went over in person and helped Li Tai up: "Master Li, thank you for your hard work. This time we completed the border transfer and banned the sea ahead of schedule, and I don't know how many Li people were saved. On behalf of these Li people, I would like to thank Master Li."
Li Tai quickly saluted Ning Chen again: "These are things that lower officials should do, how can I thank you for being a labor champion?"
The champion Wang Zhai has a kind heart and is the model that officials of our generation should follow."
The two of them just talked to each other over a cup of tea, and no one was the same.
It's as if two people are competing to see who can praise the other person better.
Early the next morning, Ning Chen asked Li Tai to write a memorial and send it to him.
"Why don't we, the champion king, send a message directly to the blue bird and send the memorial? It's still a bit slow to rush the three hundred miles." Li Tai suggested to Ning Chen.
Li Tai couldn't wait to report his achievements to Wu Zhao.
But Ning Chen only asked him to expedite the journey for three hundred miles. This is really not Li Tai's character.
Ning Chen persuaded Li Tai, "Master Li, according to the rules, we can only hurry up to three hundred miles.
Don't forget, Zhou Dingzeng is still in Fengjing.
If I use the Blue Bird to pass the message, he will catch me with a pigtail like this.
He will definitely pursue her closely, now that all the credit has been achieved.
What's the harm in arriving at Fengjing one day early and one day late?
Mr. Li, do you think this is true?"
After listening to Ning Chen's words, Li Tai couldn't help but nod his head: "What the champion said is absolutely true. The champion is still thoughtful.
Otherwise, Xiaguan will be caught in the foot by that old man Zhou Dingzeng again.
When the time comes, I’m afraid good things will turn into bad things.”
Ning Chen nodded with satisfaction: "Master Li is indeed transparent, just one point."
Now that the atmosphere was up, Li Tai gave the butler a signal.
The housekeeper immediately asked someone to carry more than a dozen large boxes over.
"Champion King, I went downstairs and brought back some local products.
The Champion King takes care of everything in Yuzhou every day, so please be sure to have these local specialties from the Champion King’s hands.”
Ning Chen would definitely accept the money delivered to his door.
Not only does he know how to collect it, Ning Chen also doesn't know how to hand it over.
Even if Wu Zhao came to ask in person, Ning Chen would not hand over these jade and silver.
Why should you give out the bribe you accepted based on your own ability?
Ning Chen happily collected the souvenirs he gave her.
Li Tai felt more secure.
Next, all you need to do is send your own book to Fengjing. After Wu Zhao's judgment, you may be able to be promoted to a higher rank.
Li Tai fantasized about his upcoming good luck for a few days, and at this time Li Tai's memorial also arrived in Fengjing.
Wu Zhao received the coupon from Li Tai, but after looking at it anxiously, he threw it aside.
Sun Banban picked up the folder and put it on the table again: "Your Majesty has not lost such a temper for a long time."
"Banban, look at what Li Tai wrote in human language?" Sun Banban knew that he was just a tool, and I'm afraid the purpose was not to let him read it at all, he just needed to read it himself.
Sun Banban quickly browsed through the contents of the brochure.
I also found that what is written in this booklet is really about doing everything possible.
All kinds of messy things appeared on the fold.
Basically, this excerpt is a personal praise for Li Tai.
Everything is written about how good Li Tai is.
Including the matter of moving borders and banning seas, it is also better.
"Your Majesty, although it is a bit exaggerated, it has done its job after all." Sun Banban said.
Wu Zhao snorted coldly: "Doing something? If he really does something? That would be a good thing for him.
Now look at what he did, this is the coupon that Yuzhou gave me before."
Sun Banban took the folder respectfully and read it once.
Sun Banban couldn't help but frown.
They are both Li Tai, but the difference between before and after is really too big.
In these later excerpts, Li Tai is a cruel official.
It only controls the borders and seas, and ignores everything else.
And in order to complete this task, Li Taina would use any method.
This also led to conflicts between them and local fishermen.
Li Tai's way of resolving conflicts is to suppress them all with force.
In just twenty days, tens of thousands of people were killed and injured in Yuzhou.
Such huge casualties are no less than those after a major war.
But this Li Tai finished it all in just a few days.
Sun Banban put the folding paper respectfully back on the table and said, "This Li Tai is indeed a little too much."
Having been with Wu Zhao for so long, Sun Banban naturally understood what Wu Zhao wanted him to say.
"It's more than just passing. The news coming out of Yuzhou these days made me think that Yuzhou is my prison?"
"Today this Li Tai came up with such a trick to disgust me, today this Li Tai must do it!"
As Wu Zhao said this, he threw the two books on the ground.
Suddenly, the entire imperial study was completely silent.
Sun Banban walked over and carefully picked up the fold, and at the same time said to the young eunuchs standing there: "Don't spread a single word about what happened in the imperial study today.
If I know a word about who's out, watch your heads."
"Yes, Eunuch Sun!"
All the eunuchs in the room responded.
When Sun Banban walked back, he placed the fold on Wu Zhao's slip of paper again, and at the same time sent a message to Wu Zhao: "Your Majesty has found out who has a problem? It's Xiao Dezi!"
Wu Zhao said calmly: "It's useful to keep him."
"Yes." Sun Banban agreed and said no more words.
When waiting for the shift to change, this little Dezi immediately recorded everything that had just happened in the imperial study room, exactly as it was, and then placed it in the place where they usually exchange information.
What Xiao Dezi didn't know was that all of this was under Sun Banban's observation.
After Xiao Dezi left, Sun Banban went over and took a look at the strip of cloth left by Xiao Dezi.
After confirming what the strip of cloth was, Sun Banban put it back calmly.
Then Sun Banban hid in a big tree, wanting to see who would take away the information.
Sun Banban didn't have to wait too long before someone came to get information.
When Sun Banban saw the person who came to get information, he knew what he was doing.
All the way back to the imperial study, Sun Banban recounted everything to Wu Zhao exactly as it was.
After Wu Zhao finished listening, he sneered calmly: "I really underestimated them."
"What will your Majesty do next?" Sun Banban continued to ask Wu Zhao for advice.
Wu Zhao sneered and said: "Continue to monitor them, there is no need to do anything for the time being.
Tomorrow I will see how they kill each other in the court."
Killing each other and cutting each other off will definitely be the main theme in the court tomorrow.
This Li Tai looks like he is completely out of control.
Since it can't be saved, they must cut off Li Tai.
Even at the critical moment, they had to nail Li Tai to the guillotine.
Anyway, for these high-ranking officials in the DPRK, everything is a benefit.
In the past, if Li Tai could give them benefits, then Li Tai could live well.
If Li Tai is no longer useful, then Li Tai should die.
At least his death would have some effect on them.
With Li Tai dead, their secrets can always be well protected.
Because those responsible for keeping secrets were directly executed.
This is their bottom line. As long as Li Tai wants to die, he must die immediately.
