"This, is this all true?" Han Xizai looked at Su Chen in surprise, not expecting that his travel experience would be so bizarre.

It's just like the martial arts he wrote, full of legendary color.

"Yixuan, aren't you writing a legend? A new plot?" Han Xizai was still a little unsure.

Because of the plot described by Su Chen, joining the army, giving advice to Western Shu, chatting and laughing, the elite Song army was wiped out, which is even more outrageous than the hero Guo Jing guarding Xiangyang City.

Su Chen smiled bitterly when he heard this and said: "Uncle Han, what I said is true. I have been practicing in the Shu army for the past six months. I have personally followed the second prince of Shu to help make plans to fight against the Song army's invasion. Although they were defeated

The Song Army was not my fault alone, but I did participate in it and played a role."

Seeing that he was so sure, Han Xizai no longer had any doubts.

He calmed himself down on the outside, but inside he was in a turmoil.

This Su Chen is not only proficient in literature and poetry, but also proficient in inventions, inventions, and investigations. He is also proficient in military operations. This is a blessing!

In Han Xizai's heart, Su Chen's importance has been upgraded to another level!

"If what you said is true, these six months of experience will be a great harvest for you, not just words on paper."

Han Xizai defected to the Yang and Wu regime, hoping that one day he would send his troops north to solve the chaos in the Central Plains, help the wise emperor to pacify the world, and achieve unparalleled achievements.

However, as he grew older and Li Tang declined, Han Xizai no longer had the ambitions of the past. His current goal is to preserve Li Tang's last territory and prevent it from being annexed by the Song Dynasty. This is his final goal of becoming an official.

I always regret that time is not forgiving, Han Xizai is old, his ambition and energy cannot support him, and he has the ambition to annex the north again.

However, hearing about Su Chen's trip to Western Shu today made him excited. He felt that as long as he trained Su Chen well, perhaps his ambitions and goals could be realized in this person.

"Yixuan, this matter is not trivial. I can't tell anyone except me." Han Xizai's first thought was to protect Su Chen and never let him show off his talents too much, otherwise he would be attacked.

The attacks by dignitaries from other parties within the imperial court were based on the theme.

Secondly, if the news spreads to the Song State, it is conceivable that the Song State's fear and hatred towards Su Chen will grow day by day. When the time comes, the Song State will continue to send assassins to assassinate him, or they will use evil schemes to assassinate him.

, it is possible to issue an edict asking Su Chen to go to the Song Dynasty as an envoy.

In order to protect Su Chen and allow him to grow up smoothly, Han Xizai planned to keep his secret.

"Uncle Han, I understand the truth here. The beauty of the forest will be destroyed by the wind. This matter involves diplomacy and national hatred. It is not a trivial matter. I will not talk nonsense. I told you Uncle Han mainly because I trust you. Moreover,

It also provides some peace of mind for future exercises." Su Chen explained.

This is also his original intention, which is to let Han Xizai, the leader of the Sun Party, know all aspects of Su Chen's abilities, so that he can tailor a development direction suitable for him.

Han Xizai asked: "Yixuan, are you sure about the upcoming palace examination?"

"If the topic is not biased, there should be no problem, right?" Su Chen said modestly.

He is not afraid of conventional questions, as long as there are similar famous articles in the history of literature, but he is afraid of unpopular questions. He has never recited similar articles through the ages, so it is a bit unrealistic for him to write an ancient essay by himself and win the first prize in the exam.

When Han Xizai heard this, he felt that Su Chen was being modest about himself. No matter what the topic was, he thought it was all modest words. He felt that he was a sure winner!

"According to the past, three first-class Jinshi and third-class scholars could enter the Hanlin Academy to become editors, and a few of the best from the second-class scholars would enter the Hanlin as attendants. After two or three years, these new talents will be able to become familiar with the imperial regulations and operations.

Choose to be sent to the six departments and twenty-four divisions, and finally stay in one department of the six departments according to your personal wishes and abilities. The start is the most stable and fastest. When you win the top prize, you can enter the Hanlin Academy. For this, you

What do you think?"

Su Chen thought for a while and said, "I have no objection to joining the Hanlin Academy. It's just a matter of drafting copywriting and so on. That's not what I want. I would rather start a new career and do some errands alone."

Han Xizai asked doubtfully: "For example?"

Su Chen said calmly: "For example, how about setting up a secret espionage department, and I will be the leader of the secret espionage department, responsible for inquiring into the intelligence of domestic and foreign princes, and cultivating an intelligence structure?" Su Chen was very interested in this matter and mastered it.

If you master the information, the secret guards will have more power.

It's just that this character is a bit like the King of the Night, and he doesn't easily see the light.

Han Xizai frowned. Although it sounds novel, the secret spy leader existed in the Song Dynasty. It was called the Imperial City Division, and the officer in charge of it was the eunuch chief Wang Jien!

The chief eunuch here is the one the emperor trusts the most. If an outsider is in charge, can the emperor trust him?

Moreover, if the organization in charge of the intelligence agency is not visible, and if it conducts surveillance on ministers, it will offend many people, and its reputation will become worse and worse, which is not conducive to the career of young talents in the court.

Han Xizai shook his head and said: "Yixuan, your suggestion is good. Our Tang State does need to set up such an intelligence agency, a secret spy organization, to monitor officials and inquire about the intelligence of various countries. However, you are not suitable to be its leader. This

It is a dirty job. Once caught, your reputation will easily become bad, which will not be conducive to your future fortunes.

"So, I plan to recommend to the officials that we recommend someone we trust, and you still have to take the right path. The six departments of the Ministry of Personnel, the Ministry of Revenue, the Ministry of War, and the Privy Council can all go through it. In this way

You can finally achieve phase!"

After Su Chen heard what he said, he knew in his heart that Han Xizai was training him as a future prime minister.

Frankly speaking, Su Chen had no idea how many years the Southern Tang could last. He always had a bad feeling in his heart, fearing that if the historical trajectory changed, the fate of the Southern Tang might become distorted faster!

Su Chen liked Jiangnan very much and cared about the people around him. He didn't want it to be destroyed like this and be destroyed by war.

"After Uncle Han establishes the secret spy agency, I can indirectly participate in it. For example, I hope to participate in various regulations and training methods for secret agents. Although I do not hold a position, I can serve as a consultant, technical guide, etc. to develop this organization well.

, firmly in our own hands."

"That's no problem!" Han Xizai nodded and agreed to him.

Su Chen added: "If I enter the Hanlin Academy, I hope to find time to set up a department, such as the Tiangong Academy, which specializes in studying objects and scientific experiments, and manufacturing products. Part of the wealth will go to the treasury, and part of it will be left to the Tiangong Academy.

How about using the inner library for school construction, experiments, etc.?"

After hearing this, Han Xizai felt that this idea was very novel and good. He smiled and nodded: "It's a good idea. After discussing it with a few old friends tonight, I will go to the palace tomorrow and apply for the establishment of these two organizations. But there will definitely be no early stage.
