The Prodigal Son of the Empire

what is this?

Didn't it put him in a situation of infidelity?

Let him pick up the butcher knife and slash at his former master?

He never expected that Wang Kang would make such an arrangement.

"I know this decision will put you in an embarrassing situation."

Wang Kang said in a deep voice: "I can be sure that this is not a temptation, but that I really need you to do this job."

"You know the situation of Eastern Chu the best, and you are familiar with the situation of various vassal states, so you can have better targeted solutions, do you understand?"

Wen Zhang remained silent.

If you look at it this way, he is indeed the most suitable candidate.

"But……"

Wen Zhang still hesitated.

Wang Kang continued: "Your task is not only to supervise the implementation of the Tweet Order, but also a more important task."

"I need you to raise food in Eastern Chu."

"Food raising?"

"Correct."

Wang Kang said in a deep voice: "This country has just experienced war, and you should be able to see how many refugees flock to Shouchun every day. Can these people ignore it?"

"Winter is coming soon, and I don't know how many people will die. What we need most now is food. At present, only the Eastern Chu has food. Taking advantage of the implementation of the Tweet Order, the vassal states are in chaos and will soon be under the control of the imperial court. We need their surplus food reserves. To help more poor people..."

For a while, Wen Zhang had mixed feelings, and he paid more respect to Wang Kang.

He has good intentions.

A king who cares about the people and lives of the people must be a good king.

He was also born in poverty, so he was naturally deeply touched.

After so many years in Eastern Chu, he also knows better how serious these princes and kings are oppressing the people at the bottom...

"It's really not a good job, and it's also a job that offends people. If you're embarrassing yourself, forget it."

Wang Kang said: "In the past few days, I will go to the Ministry of Education to get acquainted with it. When it is almost done, you can take over the order of the Ministry of Education."

Wen Zhang was startled suddenly.

The bureaucratic system of the new dynasty is completely different from that of the previous Chu state, but he has figured it out recently, so he naturally knows what official position Zhongshu Ling is.

This is equivalent to the position of the prime minister.

This is really the mighty grace of the emperor!

Although he is in a similar position in Fengguo, but the platform is different. As long as he is a counselor, who doesn't have ambitions to realize it?

Thoughts flashed.

Wen Zhang seemed to have made a decision, he said, "Can you wait for me to come back from Dongchu before taking over as Zhongshuling?"

"Have you made up your mind?"

Wang Kang said: "Once you do this, your reputation may be greatly affected, and you will no longer be the celebrity Wen Zhang who was single-minded and dedicated to the end."

"I figured it out."

Wen Zhang said: "Either don't do it, if you want to do it, do your best. I don't care what other people think. I just wait for this new dynasty to really grow, and my contribution will go down in history!"

This is a pure strategist.

They are not for profit, only for fame, only for the fulfillment of their ambitions.

"it is good."

Wang Kang said: "Sure enough, I didn't see the wrong person."

"Your mission is clear, the most important thing is time."

Wang Kang said in a deep voice, "The faster the progress, the better."

"clear."

If it weren't for this reason, as long as the time passed, the vassal state itself would collapse under the circumstances of the Tweet Order.

"I will give you the greatest right to be responsible for all matters, and I will also give you a guard to protect your safety."

Wang Kang went on to say: "When you have made almost the same progress, I will arrange for the imperial court to send people to be the ministers of each vassal state..."

The first thousand and 660 chapters and five rescue plans!

Wen Zhang was slightly taken aback.

This is really boiling frogs in warm water!

First, the vassal states were disintegrated by the Tweet Order. At that time, the power of the vassal states was weakened, and when the imperial court sent a special person to take up the post of prime minister, they would definitely not dare to disobey.

Xiangguo is the main official position responsible for all government affairs of the vassal state.

Once the imperial court appoints someone to take the full-time job, it is tantamount to direct overhead.

At that time, the vassal states existed in name only, and this hidden danger disappeared, and this system was truly abolished...

Too clever!

Indescribably brilliant!

"You must also grasp the scale during the inspection process, try not to cause too much resistance and chaos, and strive for stability."

"I see."

"Okay, tomorrow I will decree to grant you authority, and then you go straight away."

"Yes."

Wen Zhang withdrew.

For him, this was the greatest opportunity, and it also made him more famous in the future, becoming one of the most honorable ministers since the founding of the Great Qin Dynasty.
