Zhao Xing refuted the request of all officials and military and civilians in Dongjiang Town to let Mao Chengdou return to Dongjiang Town, because it was related to politics.

But in the end, Zhao Xing decided to convey the meaning of the military, civilian and officials in Dongjiang Town to Mao Chengdou to see what his mentality and thoughts were.

The time I talked to the prince was actually giving him room for consideration.

Facing Zhao Xing's re-inquiry, Mao Chengdou bowed slightly: "I am very grateful to the military and civilian soldiers in Dongjiang Town for their kindness, but I think it's better not to go."

Zhao Xing quietly breathed a sigh of relief and asked with a smile: "Why?"

Mao Chengdou replied respectfully: "I am only 20 years old this year, I am not knowledgeable and have no practical experience. If I return to Dongjiang Town, with my current official position, of course I will be the leader of Dongjiang Town."

Zhao Xing nodded.

"But my brothers are all powerful players who have experienced many battles. My situation will be quite embarrassing at that time."

“How to say it?”

"In terms of official positions, I am on several brothers who have experienced many battles. At that time, once the war breaks out, will they listen to me or not? If they don't listen to me, it will be unreasonable to the superiors and subordinates. Once the response I have come up with is just a talk on paper, if they listen to me, they will be able to ruin big things."

Zhao Xing nodded: "You have thought it through very carefully."

Mao Chengdou frankly said to his benefactor who arranged all his benefactors: "From this matter, we can also see that the military and civilians in Dongjiang Town still only know my father Mao Wenlong, but not the court. This is not a good phenomenon. I will write a few letters afterwards and ask my uncle to send the Jinyiwei to him. Explain them that Dongjiang Town is the Dongjiang Town of the court, not the Dongjiang Town of my Mao family. If they just think so, I will resign as the general of Dongjiang Town."

Zhao Xing breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the prince with a smile: "I am here to congratulate the prince. In the future, you will get a capable minister, a Jian minister, and a loyal minister."

The little prince replied proudly: "I just said that the Three Jehovah in Taoyuan is a role model for loyal ministers. This time the teacher will not object to my two brothers and I'm going to be a disciple."

The child's thinking is so simple, but the friendship formed during the child will be unbreakable. In this way, as long as you handle your relationship with Chongzhen well, after the prince ascended the throne, your family's future and Mao Wenlong's future will be guaranteed to be safe.

"It's not time to resign from the position of general officer of Dongjiang Town. During this period of time, you must not mention this matter."

Mao Chengdou said: "My nephew understands that when the time is right, I will definitely bring it up."

Zhao Xing nodded: "You are already twenty years old."

“Twenty-one.”

"I have seen the results over the years of hardship. But only the knowledge in the book and no practical experience will not be able to assist the prince in achieving great achievements in the future. So I am going to discuss with the emperor and give you a practical position and a good experience."

As soon as he heard this, a flash of excitement flashed through Mao Chengdou's eyes.

The little prince was right next to him and said, "Master and my father, discuss and discuss, let my elder brother lead the troops to the battle, just like Guan Yu and Guan Yunchang, you can stand alone in the future."

Zhao Xing just said that he would discuss with the emperor, but in fact, this is already very arrogant.

But the young prince didn't think so. He thought it was natural and normal for the master to discuss with his father.

But Mao Chengdou heard too many meanings in this sentence.

Therefore, in his heart, he became even more respectful to Zhao Xing.

"I'll ask for your opinion. Are you going to be a civil servant or a military general?"

This means it is very obvious. As long as you make a request and as long as I agree, this matter will be accurate.

"It's true that the two emperors are the ones who are the ones."

Mao Chengdou thought for a moment: "What my nephew means is to be a civil servant."

Zhao Xing nodded. This was Mao Chengdou's deliberate avoiding Dongjiang Town.

"In the future, assisting the prince will require both literary and military affairs."

"Yes, yes." The little prince jumped: "My elder brother is a civil servant and a chief minister of the cabinet; my second brother is a military general and a marshal of the three armies. Then we three brothers will sweep the world."

Zhao Xing smiled and shook his head: "I don't know other people, I know my son best. I have inherited my smart genes, and it's okay to be a top student. But if you want him to go to battle and kill the enemy, look at it now, his face is pale. If you really want him to be a marshal of the three armies, it will not help you, but will harm you."

The little prince glanced at his second brother and felt a little embarrassed.

"Switch them, isn't that going to be done?"

"Yes, then okay, now my eldest brother is the marshal and my second brother is the chief minister, that's it."

So the few people laughed together.

"Just in the imperial study just now, the emperor and I adjusted the candidates from the northwest, and were preparing to transfer Lord Lu Xiangsheng to the northwest to be the governor of Shanxi of Xuanda, Sanbian. Lord Lu Xiangsheng's talent and ability is the best choice for the entire court now. Wen can maintain national stability and martial arts can determine the country. Therefore, I am going to arrange for you to come to his account and participate in politics. What do you think?"

Upon hearing this arrangement, Mao Chengdou stood up excitedly and bowed to Zhao Xing: "Mr. Lu's ability is extremely admired. If you can practice under his hands and learn from him at any time, it will be a blessing for your nephew. Thank you for your accomplishment."

Zhao Xing encouraged: "You and Lord Lu have studied a lot, not only learning his civil and political affairs, but also learning his martial arts. I hope that in more than ten or twenty years, you will be a new star in the Ming Dynasty who can be both literary and martial. "

Mao Chengdou bowed again: "My nephew will definitely live up to his uncle's high expectations."

"What about my second brother? What position are you going to arrange for him?" the little prince suggested excitedly.

Zhao Xing patted his little hand: "Your second brother is still young, and his main energy is to study now. If he works hard and can pass the exam for a juren at the age of 20, I will be satisfied."

The little prince immediately patted his chest: "Teacher, can you sign up for the three of us next time in the imperial examination? Then I will get you a top scorer, the eldest brother will get a second scorer, and the second brother will get a Tanhua. How about it?"

Zhao Xing laughed: "Nothing."

On the afternoon of the second day, when Zhao Xing and Chongzhen met in the imperial study again, Zhao Xing reported his arrangements for Mao Chengdou to Chongzhen.

Chongzhen couldn't help but sigh: "I didn't expect that you could make arrangements for me in advance. I have ministers and friends like you. It's God's care for me."

Such a scene made Cao Huachun, who was sitting at the table, extremely envious and moved.

When Zhao Xing talked about the performance of the young prince, Chongzhen was quite pleased: "You are in harmony with my monarch and ministers, and you can be a role model for the younger generation. But sooner or later, we will grow old, and this eldest empire will eventually be handed over to them. I am quite satisfied with your plan for the future. I don't think so, so we will learn from Emperor Taizong of Tang and simply set up an institution for the prince, just like the Tiance Mansion, let the prince come into contact with some political affairs early. In the future, when you and I are old, we can hand it over to them with confidence."
