Chapter 1200 Know Yourself and Your Enemy
Hearing Nangong Shouzhong's words as if he was explaining his funeral, his wife immediately panicked and said hurriedly: "Master, if the capital is so dangerous, don't go."
"Do you think I want to go?" Nangong Shouzhong said, sighing again and said, "I can't help but do things. This time, not only the prince wants me to go, but also the prince. In order to understand the prince's true intentions, he also forced me to go. Where can I hide?"
"Don't waste time now, hurry up and clean up some clothes for me, hurry up."
Seeing his wife leaving, Nangong Shouzhong turned around and squatted under the bed cabinet, and took out a black quaint box from it.
After carefully wiping the dust on the box, Nangong Shouzhong stuffed the box into the closest place in his arms and hid it.
After doing all this, he turned around and left the house.
After a while, Nangong Shouzhong brought two servants with some luggage to the Jinyiwei and said, "It's already done, we can set off."
The Jinyiwei stood up, looked at Nangong Shouzhong up and down, and then waved: "Let's go, go back to Beijing."
Just as Nangong Shouzhong was about to leave with his servant, his wife suddenly shouted: "Master, you must return safely!"
Nangong Shouzhong smiled freely and said, "Your Highness the Crown Prince invited me to the banquet, and I didn't ask me to behead my head. Naturally, I will come back safely."
Nangong Shouzhong set out from Jinling. At the same time, many people in the Jingji and Jiangnan areas, like Nangong Shouzhong, were guarded by the Jinyiwei, and rushed towards the capital day and night.
In the East Palace of the Capital, Li Chen is still busy in the newly repaired Xizheng Hall.
Recently, government affairs have become increasingly heavy. The three provinces were established first. Although they successfully divided the power of the cabinet, Li Chen's workload has greatly increased. Most of the three provinces of government affairs cannot operate independently, so Li Chen can only do it himself.
If you want the three provinces to operate completely, this is not something that can be done overnight.
Then there is the large number of East Palace officials who have just been dealt with, and each position needs to be filled in vacant positions.
How to determine the candidate, who will get on and who will get off, is an extremely energy-consuming task.
In addition, the vacancies in Beijing were filled by local officials, and this matter did not go smoothly.
Many officials are used to being chicken heads and don’t want to be this phoenix tail.
After Li Chen seriously dealt with several local officials, although the situation improved a little, most people still disobeyed and looked for various reasons to refuse, but they just went to the capital to take office.
But this is not just a two-official official, but the vast majority of officials do this.
Even if Li Chen wants to deal with it, he can't send all these people out.
In that case, no one can come up to fill the gap.
People are all human problems after all.
At this moment, Wan Jiaojiao came over to report that the palace maid who came to Yi Palace was here.
"Let her come in."
A moment later, a palace maid came in from outside the store.
He knelt respectfully in front of Li Chen, "I come to Yi Hall to take charge of the palace maids, see His Royal Highness."
"What's the matter?" Li Chen asked.
