Chapter 807 Believe in the Emperor (Third update)

Around dusk, the governor of Fujian, Sun Chuanting, suddenly received a report from his subordinates, saying that someone from the Governor's Mansion was coming and that Governor He wanted to see him. Sun Chuanting did not dare to neglect the summons from his immediate superior, He Qiaoyuan, and hurried to the nearby Governor's Mansion.

Sun Chuanting respected He Qiaoyuan more.

One is that He Qiaoyuan has a very good reputation in Fujian, especially among scholars. Because he opened an academy, he has many students and has a great influence.

Second, it is precisely because He Qiaoyuan persisted in writing the letter that the current sea ban was launched. Of course, at least that's what he thought. It was also because of this that he returned from civilian life and directly assumed the post of governor of Fujian just because of his contribution to quelling the bandits. There are even signs that if he can perform well in the position of governor, he will most likely be replaced by He Qiaoyuan when he retires in old age, and this will be his way to promotion.

Of course, He Qiaoyuan was also satisfied with the fact that the imperial court replaced Xiong Wencan and transferred Sun Chuanting to help him open the sea ban. Especially after Sun Chuanting took office, he rectified social disciplines, strictly investigated thieves and bandits, and the strength he showed in appeasing the local areas was precisely the aspect where he was old and unable to do what he wanted. Therefore, He Qiaoyuan also admires Sun Chuanting, and the relationship between the two is considered harmonious.

No, after He Qiaoyuan heard that Sun Chuanting had arrived, he met Sun Chuanting in the back hall. Just like two good friends, they happily asked the servant to serve tea.

However, Sun Chuanting was worried about Liu Xiang's affairs, and he knew that Governor He must have something to do when he summoned him. In addition, his temperament was relatively straightforward. After dealing with it patiently, he put down the tea cup and said to He Qiaoyuan with a serious face: "I don't know. Sir, why did you summon this official?"

After hearing this, He Qiaoyuan couldn't help but smile and point his finger at him and said: "You, you are still so impatient. It's almost the New Year. I care about whether you are used to living in the south, but you don't have the patience to listen. It's all in vain." Thank you for my kindness!"

Upon hearing this, Sun Chuanting's face showed a hint of embarrassment, then a look of gratitude flashed, and then he said seriously: "I understand your Lord's care and concern, and I am grateful in my heart. But now I have important things in hand, so I feel a little anxious, and I hope you will forgive me!"

Hearing this, He Qiaoyuan finally nodded, put down the tea cup, and said with a smile: "I know that you are worried about opening the sea. This is indeed a business matter. If you can put the things the emperor told you first in your heart, I will also I appreciate it!”

When he said this, the smile on his face suddenly disappeared, replaced by a serious expression, and he continued to say to Sun Chuanting seriously: "But opening the sea is a big deal. You must not act too hastily. You must treat it with caution." !You must remember this!"

"I understand!" When Sun Chuanting heard this, he seemed to feel something vaguely in his heart and responded quickly.

His attitude was very good, and He Qiaoyuan relaxed a little more, and his tone softened a lot, and he said to Sun Chuanting: "I heard that you decided to pretend to appease the pirate leader Liu Xiang today, and even sent several senior civil servants and generals to join you. Going to appease Liu Xiang?"

When Sun Chuanting heard this, he secretly thought that this was indeed the reason! But on the surface, he remained calm and respectfully replied: "Exactly!"

"It's inappropriate, it's inappropriate!" When He Qiaoyuan heard this, he immediately shook his head and said, "I know a lot about the pirate leaders along the coast. This Liu Xiang is arrogant and arrogant. Since the sixth year of Apocalypse, he has been roaming the sea and plundering everywhere. From Changle, Fujian, to Tongshan, Gulei, Youao, down to Haifeng, Guangdong, and sometimes up to Zhejiang and other places, he has done evil everywhere. People like him are difficult to recruit."

When he said this, he saw that Sun Chuanting seemed to want to defend himself, so he gestured with his hand to ask Sun Chuanting to calm down, and then he continued: "I know that you want to say that this is a false move, and you don't really want to recruit him. Moreover. This note was made by Hong Yunzong, just to allow Liu Xiang to settle down, so that the people along the coast of the Ming Dynasty can spend the New Year with peace of mind, and we will wait until Zheng Zhilong, the naval commander, comes back to make further calculations. These are all correct, and I agree with you. It’s an act of the people. But there’s one thing you did wrong!”

"Please enlighten me!" Upon hearing this, Sun Chuanting immediately stood up, clasping his fists with both hands, and responded loudly.

Seeing that he was so serious, He Qiaoyuan relaxed even more. He waved his hand a few times and signaled to him: "This is the back hall. I am not speaking as a governor, so there is no need to be so serious!"

Seeing this situation, Sun Chuanting had no choice but to sit down again. However, his attitude was still serious, with his back straight, as if he was listening to the superior officer's inquiries.

He Qiaoyuan was far-sighted and had nothing to do with him, so he had to say: "Not only did you send Hong Yunzheng to participate in politics, but you also sent Kang Chengzu, Xia Zhiben, and Zhang Yijie together. Have you ever thought about what happens if something happens? But if several high-ranking officials of the Ming Dynasty get into trouble together, can you bear the consequences?"

"Yes!" Sun Chuanting answered without hesitation, which made He Qiaoyuan stunned! After a while, he confirmed: "Is there someone in your court?"

It is true that this can only be said in the back hall. It can also be seen from this that He Qiaoyuan does take Sun Chuanting seriously in his heart. If he had been in the lobby, he wouldn't have asked this question.

"No!" Sun Chuanting answered immediately, or perhaps feeling that He Qiaoyuan was kind to him, he immediately added: "I believe in the chief minister and the emperor. Since I am sitting in this position, I have no other thoughts, as long as it is for The matter of opening the sea comes from the governor's office, and the lower officials should bear all the consequences!"

Hearing this, He Qiaoyuan couldn't help being stunned. Of course he didn't know that Sun Chuanting's biggest trump card was that he was in the chat group. With this trump card, it wasn't a matter of the sky falling, and he believed that nothing would happen.

However, when he saw He Qiaoyuan's appearance, he still explained: "Sir, the reason why Xiaguan did this is actually to frighten those who work, so that they don't dare to boast in front of Xiaguan! What Xiaguan wants is to be able to do things. A person who is a person, not a person who only talks. If you speak out, you must be responsible for the water that will be thrown out!"

He Qiaoyuan nodded after hearing this, with a hint of approval on his face. By this time, he had understood that what made Liu Xiang believe in the court more was just superficial words. What he just said was the real purpose.

After understanding this, he kindly reminded: "In this case, I won't say anything more. But if you do this, you will take more risks, which is not worth it!"

What He Qiaoyuan didn't expect was that Sun Chuanting was thinking further, and what he said made him no longer have such thoughts.

There are still 14 due.
