Although it appears that the two Cao brothers don't get along.
But everyone thinks so.
Cao Jiazhen encountered a life and death crisis.
Cao Laoer will definitely help. No matter how big the conflict is, if something really happens, can he still watch his brother get into trouble?
Therefore, the Zhao family was silently returned to the Cao family camp.
Just when Zhou Wenshun was worried.
Emperor Yunwu suddenly made a shocking statement.
"You have good skills. It happens that there is a third-grade general in the North Camp, so you will be the one to take over."
"But, this group of soldiers is the new army."
"I hope that after three months, I can see these new armies have a new look."
Zhao Yushan looked up in disbelief.
Zhou Wenshun had the same reaction as him.
His first reaction was that Emperor Yunwu was crazy and actually handed over military power to the Zhao family.
The second reaction was that Emperor Yunwu was talking about Beiying. Although he didn't have complete control, he knew most of where the recruits came from.
Could it be that Emperor Yunwu was joking on purpose?
"Your Majesty, the common people..." Zhao Yushan only hesitated for a moment before he agreed, "The common people are willing!"
"Your Majesty!" Zhou Wenshun heard this from the side.
He was so surprised that he subconsciously tried to dissuade her.
But as soon as he opened his mouth, he felt that if he blocked it, wouldn't he be the one who blocked it?
But if you don't stop it.
He felt something was wrong again.
"What's wrong with Zhou Aiqing?"
"Xiaguan... Xianguan is so surprised." Zhou Wenshun held back a sentence, "After all, Master Zhao was appointed directly."
"It's a bit against the rules. I wonder if the emperor needs to discuss this with the cabinet."
Zhou Wenshun said this with reservations.
It can be understood that he wanted the emperor to finalize the matter directly through the officials.
Emperor Yunwu raised his eyebrows, "If I want to appoint an imperial envoy, do I still need the approval of the cabinet?"
"Imperial envoy?" Zhou Wenshun was puzzled.
Emperor Yunwu said calmly, "This matter is simple. I will arrange for you two to go to the capitals of the northwest states."
"Go and transport the grain that Ye Chaohua has hoarded into the official granary."
"Control food prices in several more state capitals."
"Your Majesty..." Zhou Wenshun finally came to his senses, "Is this official also the imperial minister this time?"
"But I am the Minister of the Ministry of War."
"I'm afraid I won't be able to do this well."
"Can you do it well?" Emperor Yunwu stared at him and sneered, "If you can't do this little thing well, why do I need you?"
"Since we can't solve it, let's retire and return home."
Zhou Wenshun was so frightened that he immediately knelt down.
He was covered in cold sweat and realized that he was not Cao Guoshi at all, so how could he have the confidence to say no to Emperor Yunwu.
He should have stalled for time first.
But it's too late to regret now.
In fact, Emperor Yunwu's appointment of Zhao Yushan surprised him so much that he didn't react for a while and spoke the truth.
"If I know my mistake, I will handle it well."
Emperor Yunwu saw what a coward he looked like.
I despise it very much.
If this man hadn't had anyone's life on his hands, he would have just found a reason to deal with it.
Sure enough, there are always some useless officials who sit in their official positions and do nothing.
but.
Anyway, Zhou Wenshun went out this time and would not be able to return to his original official position when he came back.
He didn't bother to worry about someone he wouldn't see in the future.
"Okay, you two follow orders."
Emperor Yunwu gave the order directly.
He even gave Zhao Yushan a token in front of Zhou Wenshun.
This shows that in the team, Zhao Yushan is in charge.
Zhou Wenshun is not surprised either.
After all, it's strange that Emperor Yunwu would trust him.
When he walked out of Qinzheng Hall, he smiled at Zhao Yushan and said, "Yushan, this job is not easy to do."
"You are still young. If you don't understand anything, just come and ask uncle."
"There's still one day before we set off. When will you visit Mr. Cao?"
"If it's convenient, let's go together."
Zhou Wenshun seemed to be smiling at Zhao Yushan, but in fact he was trying to tease him.
Zhao Yushan's handsome face was full of displeasure, "Master Zhou, who said I was going to see Master Cao?"
"We will leave early tomorrow morning."
"Don't you prepare your luggage and handle the government affairs at hand now."
"Master Zhou, if you delay your trip, I can't help you."
After Zhao Yushan finished speaking, he turned around and left.
Zhou Wenshun was choked once and scolded directly. He recovered and laughed angrily.
"You brat, you're just pointing fingers at me when you first became an official?"
He wanted to catch up and scold him.
But Zhao Yushan had left long ago. He was already tall, and he had to meet the new recruits.
There is no time to waste here.
Zhou Wenshun was so angry that he wanted to tell Cao Guoshi about this, so he hurried out of the palace to find Cao Guoshi.
Cao Guoshi was originally planning to go to Chongshan Temple to meet Yun Chen.
He happened to be met by Zhou Wenshun who was coming out.
Cao Guoshi saw that he had something to say.
Then he went back again.
He asked Zhou Wenshun to follow him back to the guest room.
"Tell me, what's the matter?" Cao Guoshi rubbed his brow.
Recent events have caused him heavy losses. The only thing that can reassure him is that there is no evidence of his dealings with Ye Chaohua and others.
Even the money he received back then was not his own, and he never even had any correspondence with Ye Chaohua.
This was also the reason why he was cautious and was not caught by Emperor Yunwu.
Otherwise, it would be him, not Ye Chaohua, who was in the prison at the moment.
only.
Without such a big helper as Ye Chaohua, the students below all suffered to varying degrees.
He knew he couldn't hold on for long.
If Emperor Yunwu insists on targeting him.
With the help of two veterans, Xiao Guiqing and Jiang Jue, as well as Xie Jiajun, he wanted to regain his previous power in the court.
Not very likely.
There are only two roads before him now.
Or, bowing before Emperor Yunwu, losing his current power and keeping his family is the best outcome.
Or, just stand up and gain the power of following the dragon.
Cao Guoshi's eyes darkened.
"My lord, the emperor has called his subordinates and Zhao Yushan into the palace today."
"Let us become imperial envoys to collect Ye Chaohua's grain."
"Sir, that boy Zhao Yushan has become arrogant just when he has shown some promise."
"I don't even give you the dignity of a lower official."
"How can he not give face to the lower official? He doesn't give face to you at all."
Cao Guoshi's face changed slightly, "Are you talking about Zhao Yushan? That second boy from Zhao Guogong's family?"
"That's right." Zhou Wenshun nodded and complained, "The emperor also gave the token to that boy Zhao Yushan."
"That boy is leading the team this time because he just wants to ride on the lower official's head."
"What can he do if he doesn't even have a hair on his head?"
"My lord, you must teach him a lesson so that I can take control of this team. When the time comes, I will cooperate with you."
"That's a lot of food, and the Ye family's belongings and shops in those prefectures are a huge sum of money."
"Thanks for falling into the emperor's hands..."
Cao Guoshi's voice was almost squeezed out from between his teeth, "Zhao Yushan is not my official at all."
