Yan Mu thought, the emperor summoned several ministers to discuss the candidate for the Youzhou governor. There was no problem, but why did he call him? First of all, he served as the Minister of Justice, not as the Minister of War. Besides, Youzhou is a barrier between Zhenbei and Shengjing. If he asked him to give advice, wouldn't he be afraid of his selfishness?

He silently said, "My son does not know this General Cheng, and he really doesn't know whether he is suitable or not, so he dare not speak out. However, I heard that General Cheng was promoted by Shangguan Governor, so I think he has some understanding of this General Cheng."

When the emperor heard this, he frowned and asked Shangguan Xu beside him, "When Lao Qi reminded me, I really remembered that when Cheng'an was the deputy commander of the camp in the suburbs of Beijing, he was demoted for his poor work. Later, you recommended him to me to go to Youzhou and said that this person was a general, it would be a pity if he didn't need it."

Shangguan Xu bent down, his eyes darkened, and said, "Actually, I think that although Cheng'an has talent, he has little training. Youzhou is a military center, so you need to find a more experienced general."

The emperor nodded, "Since the governor Shangguan said that, let's think about it again, but there are other suitable candidates."

After coming out of Shangshu's study, Yan Mu and Shangguan Xu walked out of the palace together.

"You revealed the matter between the emperor and the Marquis through the mouth of the West Factory." Shangguan Xu said.

Yan Mu smiled, "Why can't I understand what the Lord Shangguan said?"

Shangguan Xu laughed, "Bite me back?"

"Does it hurt?"

"Why doesn't it hurt? Youzhou slid away from his hand."

The emperor lacked some trust in him because of this matter, and a little trust made the emperor feel that Cheng An was at risk as the governor of Youzhou, so before that, he had an idea and would never use Cheng An. I just asked Yan Mu and Shangguan Xu, if they were less smart, one recommended someone else and the other recommended Cheng An, that would anger the emperor.

But both of them are smart people, one brings trouble to the east and the other breaks his tail.

Shangguan Xu did suffer a great loss. Mrs. Hou failed to get anything good, but she lost control of Youzhou.

"Lao Qi, you used to hate that person, but now you seem to want to reach out to have enough?" Shangguan Xu stopped and turned to look at Yan Mu.

Yan Mu raised his eyebrows and smiled, "I want or not that person, all depends on my mood. I must have this ability."

"What a crazy tone!"

"But if you want it, I will not let you do it."

Shangguan Xu's face darkened, "Don't you lose your memory? Why do you still have such a great hatred for me?"

"Haha, it's not hatred, but knowing that Qin Fei sat in that seat, I was the first one to get rid of." Speaking of this, Yan Mu sighed, "So how can I make you happy?"

The emperor had not attended court for ten days, but after he went to court, a censor indeed grabbed him and the Marquis's affairs and dismissed a censor in court, and the others dared not speak.

Later, he ordered General Xiao Meng to be the governor of Youzhou and went to Youzhou to take office today.

Yan Mu came out of the yamen in the afternoon and saw a woman selling silk squids walking around the streets and hesitated for a moment and went up to call the woman.

"Sir, the patterns on my silk handkerchief are all embroidered by myself, and each piece is different. Look at this rich peony, it is lifelike, and there is also this mandarin duck playing in the water. This pair of mandarin ducks are so spiritual. There is also this begonia. The begonia is a lovesick flower, which can be given to my sweetheart. Sir, who are you going to give to?"

The woman was so enthusiastic that she spoke a lot.

Yan Mu saw Dahei and the others coming out, looked here for a few times, then left with a chuckle. He coughed and said, "Send it to my wife."

"Oh, then this mandarin duck is good to play in the water."

"It's better to be this begonia."

"Whether it is good, after a man brings a woman home, he will try to be virtuous and capable, but he will not let her go. Look at the adults like this, he will definitely put his wife on the stern point."

The woman was speechless. Yan Mu hurriedly stuffed silver for her and put the begonia silk clip in his arms.

He was about to go back when Xue Changfeng ran over.

He was worried about his mother, and he had strict regulations and never left the door. Although his family did not have so many rules, it was difficult to come out often, so the two of them had not seen each other for a long time.

"Seventh Prince, come with me."

Yan Mu raised his eyebrows, "Where to go?"

"drink wine."

"Don't go."

Xue Changfeng could not allow him to refuse. He stepped forward and pulled his sleeve out, "I'm not everyone's face."

"You can't give it to me."

"But whoever you give it to, you have to continue."

Yan Mu sighed. Xue Changfeng is a straightforward person, careless and easy to make friends. He had had grudges against him before, but after he found out that his mother was killed, he put down the grudges.

"I'll go, can you stop pulling it?" Yan Mu said helplessly.

"Hurry up, I'm still rushing to see him off. If I'm too late, I won't see anyone."

"Who to see off?"

"My brother, you'll know when you go."

Yan Mu followed Xue Changfeng around the street and turned to an alley. There were all large doors in the alley. He came to a place and ran forward and knocked on the door.

Yan Mu looked at the plaque on the door, which read "Xiao Zhai".

Without waiting for him to ask, the door opened and it was a gray-haired man.

"Brother Li, where is Brother Xiao?"

"I haven't been home for a day."

"Then where did he go?"

"It seems like I'm going to Jiangnan Mansion."

"There is a ruin, what did he do there?"

"I don't know this."

Xue Changfeng bid farewell to Uncle Li and pulled Yan Mu to the Jiangnan Mansion again.

Qin Shengrui led the camp in the suburbs of Beijing to dig out the picks buried in the ruins. Although there was only one living person, it was a miracle that there was a living person with such a serious collapse and the rain was pouring back.

The news reached the court and the emperor's ears. The emperor was very happy. Not only did he commend Qin Shengrui, but he also asked him to take over the Qiu Xian.

Qin Shengrui was like a sudden brain, and went on an orderly manner. The candidate was convinced of him and did not cause trouble again. The autumn examination will be held tomorrow, and the grand exam will last for three days. If everything goes well, the emperor will see Qin Shengrui's ability and will definitely use him in the future.

When he arrived at the ruins of Jiangnan Mansion, a tall and dark-faced man was grabbing the back of a weak man's neck and lifting the man up with one hand.

The weak man kept begging for mercy, but the dark man kicked him out with one kick.

Seeing this, Xue Changfeng hurried over: "Lao Xiao, why are you having fun again!"

"I have to kill him today!"

"You forgot that you hurt someone before and were demoted to level three consecutively. Why haven't you learned a lesson?"

"Don't worry!"

The dark man wanted to beat the man who could not get up on the ground. Xue Changfeng hurriedly held his arm, but he couldn't hold it back and was dragged forward by the man.

"Old Xue, let me go!"

"No, I won't let it go!"

"Let go!"

"I don't!"

Yan Mu saw that the two of them were so lingering, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but twitch.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the man lying on the ground quickly got up and ran away. If he guessed correctly, this man with a resentful look on his face should be Xiao Meng.

"Damn, do you know who he is, so you let him go?" Xiao Meng shouted to Xue Changfeng.

When Xue Changfeng saw the man running away, he let go of Xiao Meng, "Who is it that who covets your wife's beauty to make you so angry?"

"roll!"

"Who is he?"
