Chapter 339: Arrangements

Xiao Hanzheng did not expect the emperor to ask him this question.

He replied without hesitation, "I will listen to the emperor's arrangements."

The emperor smiled. "You are a talent. I feel that it is too much of a waste to place you in the capital now."

Then, he changed the topic and asked, "Do you want to go to the northern border?"

Xiao Hanzheng was not surprised by the emperor's question.

After all, he interacted with the emperor for a long time in his previous life and had a good understanding of him.

He replied, "If the emperor wants to arrange for me to go, I will definitely do my best."

King Jin from the northern border was a thorn in the emperor's heart.

It would be difficult for him not to pull it out.

But now that King Jin's wings had hardened, if he rebelled directly, it would definitely cause some chaos in Daliang and give their enemy a chance to take advantage of it.

In his previous life, when the two armies fought, although they killed the traitor King Jin, the imperial court of Daliang still invested a lot of time and effort in it.

Following that, the Ge Kingdom sent troops and the residents at the northern border were in the very abyss of suffering.

In his new life, Xiao Hanzheng still wanted to try his best to see if he could change things and do something practical for those at the northern border.

Moreover, he understood the emperor's words.

If he were to be transferred to the northern border, he would definitely have a heavy responsibility.

The emperor discovered that although Xiao Hanzheng was young, he was really smart.

He knew what he meant instantly.

"As you know, be it the Ge kingdom eyeing the northern border or King Jin striving for independence, they are all bad debts. I want to dig a hole in the northern border. I think you can do it, but there will definitely be many dangers, so I want to ask for your opinion on this."

The emperor valued his talents, so he said this.

Xiao Hanzheng seemed to think for a moment before cupping his hands to the emperor. "Your Majesty, I am not afraid of danger. I am willing to shoulder your worries."

If he did not think before saying it, he would appear to be too rash.

The emperor smiled. "Very good. Then go back and make some preparations. In less than half a year, you will go to the northern border. I will first arrange for you to go to the Imperial Academy and then transfer you to the northern border. Recently, there are no vacant positions in the northern border. I still have to think about your arrangements."

The emperor was willing to say a few more words to show his favor to a smart person.

Xiao Hanzheng nodded. "Yes, I will definitely not let you down, Your Majesty."

The two of them chatted for a while more before Xiao Hanzheng left the imperial palace.

The emperor also immediately ordered someone to investigate Zhuo Jun.

The next day, Xiao Hanzheng's posting order was also out.

The three people who were first-ranked were all arranged to go to the Imperial Academy.

Xiao Hanzheng knew that the emperor had arranged for him to be gilded.

As for Zhuo Jun's arrangement, she was to be gilded on the surface, but in reality, the emperor was probably still deciding what to do based on the investigation's results.
