Li Chen listened attentively to Fu Minqing's answer, then smiled.

After laughing, Li Chen said: “No, you’re wrong. Xu Junlou’s abilities aren't greater than yours. What about tempering He’s younger than both of you and has similar experiences. How could he be ahead of you The only reason he could be faster is because his uncle is Xu Changqing.”

Li Chen's answer completely breaks the mold.

As is usual, after employing someone, leaders always have a plausible explanation for others.

For example, Xiao Zhang, this time Xiao Wang goes first. It's not that you don't trust me, but you still need to practice and improve. I like you more, and I can't bear to see you leave. Next time, next time, I will definitely let you go up.

Such as.

But Li Chen bluntly exposed the truth, which caught Fu Minqing and Zou Chenglong off guard.

Li Chen didn't care what they were thinking at the moment, but said: "I appointed Xu Junlou as the magistrate of the capital city because his uncle is Xu Changqing. If the current Minister of Revenue was Fu Changqing or Zou Changqing, you would also be the magistrate of the capital city."

But the real reason is not because I want to give Xu Changqing face.

Just kidding, the Crown Prince of a great empire wouldn't need to give a Minister of Finance face, would he

< nonexistent. >

Fu Minqing and Zou Chenglong obviously understood this principle as well. They didn't dare to breathe, listening carefully to every word Li Chen said. They had a premonition that the next words from the Crown Prince would change their lives forever.

Li Chen continued, "It's because Xu Junlou's uncle is Xu Changqing. I can learn more about Xu Junlou's advantages from Xu Changqing. Both of you have no influence in the court, and even less so beside me. Therefore, I want to use you. Unless someone is sent to check your records and inquire about your recent situation, how else can I know if you can be used by me"

"The imperial court's selection of officials could never be perfectly impartial. Those in power often have a deeper understanding of individuals and hear more from them, naturally forming stronger impressions. This is human nature and also the rule of society."

Hearing this, Fu Minqing and Zou Chenglong suddenly realized. Their hearts felt a lot lighter, but at the same time, they also felt a tinge of loss.

Li Chen was telling the truth, every word was like a jewel, without any embellishment, only reality.

Because it is also true, which makes it a little hard to accept.

Then Li Chen continued, "But everything in the world has no absolute good or bad, it has two sides. I placed Xu Junlou in this position as the Prefect of Beijing City. If he does well, it will naturally be his opportunity, but if he does badly, it will also be his tribulation."

“The position of City Magistrate is special, requiring a strong network and intricate dealings with all parties. With his uncle Xu Changqing, Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, backing him, he finds it easier to carry out his duties. Can you manage this complex situation Even if you are exceptionally talented, it takes three to five years to truly grasp the intricacies.”

"This is my consideration, and for you, the absence of an uncle like Xu Changqing might be, in fact, an advantage."

"There are already Mr. Xu and Young Master Xu in the court. If I appoint someone else, I wouldn't consider Young Master Xu unless Mr. Xu steps down. Before that happens, the opportunity is yours."

Li Chen's eyes sparkled as he addressed the two, "Today's sight has brought me great comfort. You have also left a very good impression on me. This is something that even several Xu Changqing couldn't achieve, so you don't need to belittle yourselves."le that may be true, I still have one worry."Li Chen glanced at Wu Qingsang and said, "It's alright to speak."Wu Qingcang lowered his voice and said, "The Sixteen Riders of Yan Yun have a force of ove...
