As a member of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, Xue Cheng has a deep understanding of the relationships between many people in various places.
When he became a captain of the Jinyiwei in Jiujiang County, naturally a lot of information would be reported to him, and at the same time, different forces and factions would extend olive branches to him.
Of course, relying solely on these, he still had no way of distinguishing between friend and foe, as well as various factions, from this extremely complex information.
What really enabled him to clearly analyze the various factions and reasons was the information within the family.
Because of his strength and status, the Xue family has greatly improved. His weight and status in the Xue family are incomparable to before, and many hidden knowledge will be introduced to and disclosed to him.
"I previously thought that Ruihai was deliberately promoting Zhang Mingtu, but now it seems the opposite is likely true."
Xue Cheng frowned as he looked at what Ruihai had done in Xingguo and Jianyi counties on the eucalyptus table.
He carefully looked at the reports brought by the Jinyiwei from various places, and his brows furrowed even deeper.
"According to the report, it will take some time for the reforms in Xingguo County to be truly completed. Ruihai has put a lot of thought into cooperating with the local wealthy families and even clashed with the county lieutenant who was stationed there..."
Normally, based on Ruihai's previous performance, although this situation can be overcome, it will take several months to several years to truly settle all the issues in Xingguo County.
As a result, Ruihai suddenly seemed to be assisted by God. He knew all the problems in Xingguo County, as well as the evidence of the enemy's corresponding illegal and criminal activities, and he flattened Xingguo County in one fell swoop.
"From this point of view, perhaps Rui Hai has already received help from that unknown prince."
Xue Cheng put the relevant information and documents at hand, his fingers tapping on the table unconsciously.
With such relevant documents, Xue Cheng couldn't help but think about what happened later.
After Rui Hai successfully handled the relevant affairs and submitted a very shocking memorial, it is said that he gained the favor of the Prime Minister.
Then Ruihai rose rapidly in the following process. He was first transferred to Jianyi County to deal with issues related to Jianyi County.
The situation was handled quite smoothly and decisively, and it only took a few months to resolve all the problems.
Even the imperial censor who was sent on behalf of the emperor to inspect various places was deliberately sent to make things difficult for Ruihai, but he was dealt with quietly without causing much trouble.
Xue Cheng had worked with Rui Hai before and knew his temper and decision-making very well. He knew that with Rui Hai's personality, he would never be able to handle this matter.
A book-reading app recommended to me by a book friend of ten years, Huanyuan App! It's so damn useful! I use it to pass the time reading aloud and listening to books while driving or before bed. You can download it here.
"Looking at it now, perhaps Rui Hai has already won the favor of the prince."
Xue Cheng held his chin, feeling that he had vaguely grasped a very important and hidden clue.
"And judging from the current situation, the power of the prince in Kyoto cannot be underestimated.
"What Ruihai did in Xingguo County wasn't sensational or particularly surprising, but he was able to directly gain the Prime Minister's favor. This must be due to the power of the prince..."
As for the claim that Rui Hai had gained the favor of the prime minister due to his own abilities and literary talent, Xue Cheng scoffed at it and did not believe it at all.
Ruihai has been wasting years in various places and has never really received a big promotion.
As a result, just by clearing up some of the ills in Ruihai County, you can get the favor of the capital?
Stop joking. After getting a lot of information from the family, Xue Cheng deeply understood that if he wanted to truly hold a high position, ability alone was not enough.
To survive in the world, you need background and connections. The world of martial arts is not about fighting and killing!
Now the person who is suspected to be the prince has gone to Ruihai again. It is not so much that he was seconded by Ruihai, but rather that the prince had other instructions for Ruihai.
"Should I hold on to this thigh tightly?"
Xue Cheng fell into a state of hesitation. Of course, he was already trapped in this. Even if he said later that he was not this person, no one would believe that he was hesitating whether to pull the Xue and Han families into it.
If they succeed, it will be considered as the achievement of following the dragon, and the whole family will be extraordinary from then on. Perhaps they can really enter Kyoto and become one of the top families in the world.
But the consequences of failure can also be quite tragic. Throughout history, when people embark on this path, the winner wins everything, and the loser turns everything into ashes.
"We still need to study it further, so we can't make a decision right now. However, we can still provide more support for this matter. We can't just do it alone like we do now."
Xue Cheng looked at the relevant reports on Xingguo County and Jianyi again.
As someone who was not from an intelligence background, he couldn't see what was different about Ruihai, but he was very good at this and could tell at a glance that Ruihai had strong intelligence support.
Therefore, they turned defeat into victory in Xingguo County and eliminated all pests in a very short time.
In Jianyi, the intelligence obtained was so powerful that it could not be described as overwhelming. It was simply full and complete support.
Xue Cheng has never been to Xingguo County, so his judgment of it may be wrong.
But he had stayed in Jianyi County for several years, and he could guarantee with his superiors that even if the Jinyiwei personnel in Jianyi County tried their best, they would not know too much information about Jianyi.
The Jinyiwei didn't know much about the illegal and disorderly activities of either the Wang or Li families in Jianyi County, let alone the subsequent investigation into the land tax. For an airborne official from Ruihai to wipe out everything within a few months, he must have received support from higher-level Jinyiwei officials.
