Chapter 850 Heavy Mission

When the two of them started dinner, Zhou Ping'an was always introverted. He didn't need anything Li Chen said at all. He was very natural and could not see any tension or restraint.

After eating two bites, Li Chen said, "Who do you think can take over your position?"

If you ask someone about this sentence, you will definitely kneel down and beg for mercy on the spot.

But Zhou Ping'an didn't even shake the chopsticks, but thought about it carefully, and then said: "Bao Chenglu, the left minister of the Ministry of Justice."

Nodding, Li Chen said readily: "Prepare for the handover work and let him take over your position."

Zhou Ping'an still had no other reaction and replied: "Okay."

Li Chen was happy and asked, "Are you curious about why I asked you to step down?"

Zhou Ping'an replied: "Either you have an appointment, or you just do something wrong and make your highness unhappy. When I ask myself that there is no mistake, there must be another appointment. If your Highness wants me to know, I will naturally take the initiative to tell me that your Highness does not want me to know, and it is useless for me to ask."

“Perfect.”

Li Chen praised and said, "I plan to let you go to Nanhe as the governor."

From the Minister of Justice to the governor of a major province, the rank remains unchanged, but the real power is much greater.

After all, even if he is the Minister of Justice, he is in charge of criminal affairs in the world, he is only the leader of a ministries in the capital, so he would not be able to be a rank-in official in the local area.

If this good thing falls on Xu Changqing or Guan Zhiwei, I'm afraid I can't wait to thank you for your gratitude and laugh.

But Zhou Ping'an was very calm, and he said, "I obey the order."

Li Chen was already accustomed to Zhou Ping'an's character. He said while eating: "I asked you to go to Nanhe Province mainly because of its special geographical location. You know the situation in the court. There is a big change between the palace and the cabinet sooner or later."

"The Jingji area where the capital is located is surrounded by the three major provinces of Xishan, Nanhe and Dongshan. When you go out, you will be in the border, and there is no way out."

"The Xishan Province is now in charge of Zhao Heshan, but because it is severely affected and it will take several years to recover, so it cannot help. The rest are Nanhe and Dongshan."

"Dongshan is Zhao Xuanji's hometown. All the people know that Zhao Xuanji is, but not that Li's royal family, and even more so, the court, so I give up this part."

He raised his head and looked at Zhou Ping'an with a bright look. Li Chen said, "Although the situation in Nanhe is better, it is not much better. It is adjacent to the Dongshan Province. No one knows what Zhao Xuanji has arranged there over the years to let you go. This is the limit of my current limit. Otherwise, there will be too much resistance in the court and I will not be able to make a decision."

"So, I can't give you any help, so I can only let the Jinyiwei cooperate with you more, but even so, you will be murderous step by step when you arrive in Nanhe Province. If you are accidentally killed, it is possible."

"In addition to the murder, Nanhe Province is in a group. You, the governor, will most likely face the situation where the people below will obey the orders and disobey you, and will be lip service to you, so this is very difficult."

Zhou Ping'an listened carefully, then smiled at Li Chen and said, "If it is not difficult, your highness will not let the minister go. This is the minister's ability, and the minister should be proud."

Li Chen laughed and said, "It is precisely because of this that I feel relieved to let you go."
