Li Ling lowered his eyes and quickly made the trade-offs.

The emperor did not directly issue an order to appoint, but asked about his intentions. Obviously, the right to choose was still in his hands.

This is not that the emperor is so easy to talk about. It is really that Jiangnan is too important and there is no room for mistakes. It is necessary for officials who really want to go there to make some achievements to take on this important task. If they are forced to leave, if they are not dedicated enough, it is no different from not sending people.

Of course, the benefits of taking on this job are also obvious. Not only can the emperor be satisfied, but the contributions will be greatly reduced after the event is completed, which will have immeasurable benefits for the future career. But the problem is that the danger of this matter is also proportional to the benefits. He has seen Luo Tian Sect's methods more than once. They have been in operation for at least one year and have a fully prepared home court. Are you really sure to deal with them?

You should know that the situation in the local area is completely different from that in the court. At that time, what he has to deal with will not only be the Luotian Sect hidden in the dark, but also the forces in the local area. Even the two sides may have colluded to the same place. Is there really a way for him to deal with it one by one and defeat them?

The difficulty of these challenges is too high, and they are all higher than the benefits you can gain. As a time traveler from an accounting background, he naturally has to figure out this account. When the risk exceeds the benefit, there is really no need to take this risk.

Just when Li Ling thought he had figured out the accounts, he saw Lu Zhen looking at him with a smile, as if there was something hidden and not revealed. What is it?

Li Ling frowned again, was he released from Jiangnan to serve as an official? Or was he promoted to serve with excellent results after the Beijing inspection... Suddenly, he was shocked and finally understood the key point - the arrangement of the errand itself was a great reward!

The Dayue Dynasty ancestral system, civil officials in the world do not enter the center without going through the prefecture. The so-called center naturally refers to the real core officials of the court, including the six ministers and nine ministers, as well as the big men in the Political Affairs Hall. They are a group of real power figures who truly grasp the direction and lifeline of the country. They are also the ultimate dream of every scholar and every official who enters the official.

And the sentence "If you don't go through the prefecture, you won't enter the center" has become a natural barrier in front of every ambition official. Because it is not easy to achieve the first half.

It is not that if you have really been a magistrate or a magistrate, and if you understand the methods of governing the local area, you can be promoted to a central official. If this is true, for the past hundred years, such officials will probably have been carrying traffic in tens of thousands of vehicles. What else can you say?

In fact, there is another premise for this sentence, that is, among the officials in the capital - only those who are first appointed as officials, are appreciated, and then exiled as officials in the local area can have the opportunity to enter the center with sufficient creditorship and qualifications. Of course, those who are demoted from the capital for crimes and become officials in the local area are not included. Under such harsh conditions, there will be no more than three people who can really get such qualifications every year.

People like this are even called "Cu Xiang" by their colleagues under the official table. Because in their opinion, as long as such a person does not make mistakes, he will always be able to enter the Political Affairs Hall or hold important positions in the Sixth Ministry in the future, which is the candidate for the prime minister. And Li Ling's teacher Wei Liang is actually such a "Cu Xiang" that many people like to be favored by them!

After being a Jinshi in high school, he studied hard in the Hanlin Academy, and thus shined, and was honored to preach in front of the emperor. He was valued by the emperor. Finally, after four years of official career, he was sent to Huaibei with excellent results in Beijing and became the magistrate of Jiangcheng County.

Now, as a student of Weiliang, Li Ling is actually more smooth than his teacher. In just two years, he has such an opportunity to be released. Even if there is a certain danger, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If other Beijing officials know about it, I am afraid that some people will compete with him for such a good opportunity.

Li Ling finally figured out everything, which made the originally wavering mind begin to become firm. In later generations, there are always people asking young people to jump out of their comfort zone and challenge themselves. Now, this opportunity is in front of them.

Being in the Ministry of Revenue is his comfort zone. Here, everything is familiar to you and you cannot make mistakes. As long as you keep up with your qualifications, you will be promoted to a senior official at the level of the Minister of the State Council. As for going further, it depends on your luck in the future.

But do you really want to live such a life? After traveling through time, you are still an accountant, just changing the time and space, and still becoming a social animal in Jiujiuliu?

If someone is in the future, if someone advises you like this, then you will slap you to death. This is definitely a trick. What is jumping out of your comfort zone? Someone who likes you, wants to fool you, and then takes over your comfort zone by yourself. If you really believe it, you will most likely regret it. Even if the remaining 10% or 20% succeed, it is because you are strong enough. Maybe you will have greater success in your comfort zone and don’t have to be so tired.

But at this time, Li Ling felt that this was indeed an opportunity, because the benefits were visible, and the only problem was that it was a bit dangerous.

But when I thought about it, Li Ling smiled again. Dangerous? Can it be more dangerous than when I was in the southwest? Those local forces in Jiangnan can be better than the Long family that dominates Qianzhou? I have experienced all the storms and waves, but can I still capsize in the small rivers in Jiangnan?

Yes, the risks are controllable but the returns are high, so this transaction is done!

Li Ling's eyes flashed and had made a decision. At that moment, he stood up and saluted: "Share your worries, do things for the court, and eliminate thieves for the people, is the duty of being a minister. I am not talented every year, but since Your Majesty believes that I have the ability to serve the country, I am willing to go to Jiangnan to eliminate the local Luotian Sect's rebel thieves!"

Emperor, King Huai, Lu Zhen:... (Did you forget that you had just thought about it and had enough time to have a meal? Why did you say so righteously at this time, as if you didn't feel hesitant at all?)

However, they could understand that Li Ling would hesitate. If he did not hesitate and weighed the matter, the emperor would not dare to hand over such a heavy responsibility to him. So they did not point out this point, but just smiled and said, "It's best, but in the next few months, you will have a rest. After the Beijing inspection in February next year, you can go to Jiangnan."

"I obey the order." Li Ling bowed to answer again, and then asked curiously, "I wonder where the court will arrange for the minister to be an official this time?"

"Well, I will know this at that time. Don't worry, the court will not really let you fight alone. There will always be someone to cooperate with you. This game in Jiangnan is absolutely not to be lost." The emperor gave him another reassurance, which also made Li Ling no longer have any worries.

After finishing the matter, the atmosphere in the room finally became lighter, and King Huai also spoke again: "Wen Zhong, since Your Majesty has allowed you to take more rest, then you have to hurry up and write down the new volume of Bao Gong's case quickly. I am still waiting to read it."

"What is Bao Gong's case?" the emperor asked curiously.

Another fan of the book chasing update, Lu Zhen helped explain a few words, and then looked at Li Ling with a smile: "Yes, Wen Zhong, I'm waiting to read your new book."

Seeing this, the emperor also became interested: "Are there any such interesting books? Lao Jiu, if you have them here, you can also show me two books. There are also Li Ling. If you can write them, please publish the next volume as soon as possible."

Good guy, there is no one else in this group of people who urge to update... People who urge to update are all using tickets to seduce or something. If the emperor urges to update, it means using your life or future to threaten it.

As the author, Li Ling had no other choice but to agree. He could only smile bitterly and bow again: "I obey the order. As long as I have nothing else to do, I will write a new volume at home as soon as possible."

"That's good, that's good." King Huai looked happy and rubbed his hands repeatedly, wishing he could get a brand new package of public cases now to enjoy it.

After talking about nothing, Li Ling had no need to stay here anymore. At the moment, he used the excuse of going home to write a book and saying goodbye.

It was not until he left Guihaiju and took a car to walk along the long street that Li Ling finally exhaled a breath of turbid air. This unexpected meeting put too much pressure on him. He had to think about it carefully and make a proper plan.

When I go to Jiangnan, I will inevitably encounter a lot of trouble, so I need other helpers. But now, after thinking about it, I can really help myself and I am willing to believe it, and only Li Moyun is left.

Without much hesitation, Li Ling asked the coachman to change direction and did not rush to go home. Instead, he went to the south of the city, where Li Moyun and Shao Qiuxi settled their masters and apprentices.

This is a very secluded courtyard, with three or five families in the whole alley, and other houses are vacant, which is very suitable for important people who are difficult to settle down.

When Li Ling came to the gate alone and knocked on the gate, he looked around vigilantly. There was indeed no one around. Then, he saw Li Moyun, who had not seen for many days. This person looked a little more haggard than before, and his eyes were covered with blood.

"Young Master, why are you here?" Seeing that it was Li Ling, Li Moyun immediately smiled happily.

"I have something to discuss with you, so I came here. By the way, has Senior Shao improved?" I have been in the capital for some time, and the Cao Gang also helped to invite several famous doctors to treat Shao Qiuxi. Li Ling felt that his condition would always be better.

But as a result, Li Moyun shook his head with a sad expression: "These days, doctors come to see the master and use acupuncture every day, but no matter whether it is taking medicine or other means, he cannot wake him up. Young Master, my master...he will not..."
