The entire summoning process was mysterious.
Cao Xiong and Li Cunxiao personally guarded the door and did not allow anyone to approach.
Such an atmosphere is enough to make some filthy-minded literati fabricate a drama about a dragon and a phoenix.
But in fact, the whole process was quite serious. There was not even a trace of ambiguity. It was just a normal conversation between the emperor and his ministers.
More importantly, Nan Luoying was right there with him.
So it was said to be a private summons, but in fact it only meant that only Yun Panpan was summoned.
Moreover, not all emperors were studs. In fact, most emperors were not as indiscriminate as people imagined.
The two thousand stone prince whom he personally promoted did not respect him. Where did he put him just for that little thing?
And where does that put him?
It was clearly a favor of recognition, but it turned into a power-for-sex transaction.
Then he is truly hopelessly stupid.
As for having people guard the door and not letting anyone get close.
What's so strange about this?
Have you ever seen a place where the emperor is located and there is no one guarding the door, allowing people to approach freely?
What's more, the conversations between the emperor and the princes naturally involved some sensitive topics, and any knight could listen to them at will.
Of course, for those literati with dirty minds, they don't care about these things.
Just make it up, what we want is the ambiguity and excitement.
Zhao Xin naturally knew all this.
After all, in another time and space, many emperors of the Chinese dynasties were arranged in various ways.
But he didn't care.
Not only did he not care, Yun Panpan was also quite calm.
Those who are clean will be clean by themselves.
She was initially shocked and even a little frightened that the emperor would make an exception and appoint a woman like her as a county magistrate.
But at this moment, she only felt gratitude and great ambition in her heart.
So when Zhao Xin asked her, "My dear Yun, how do you feel about being the first female lord of two thousand stone in history?"
Her reaction was calm and serious.
"I have no special thoughts, but I am determined to make future generations praise your majesty's wisdom and bravery for this matter."
A very clever and confident answer.
Zhao Xin couldn't help laughing after hearing this.
Even Nan Luoying couldn't help but look at Yun Panpan again, feeling like she had met a kindred spirit.
However, the other party seems to be more aggressive and ambitious than himself.
"Okay, very good, I'm looking forward to it too.
But I still want to hear your strategy for achieving this goal."
Zhao Xin gave two thumbs up and then asked.
After all, things still have to be done, and there are always many people who talk big in every world.
After hearing this, Yun Panpan did not answer immediately. Instead, she organized her thoughts before standing up to make a response.
Zhao Xin waved his hand and motioned her to sit down.
She then sat down again and said confidently, "I have actually been wondering these past few days why Your Majesty would risk the wrath of the world and appoint me as the governor of Dahuang County."
"hehe……"
Zhao Xin chuckled and gave her a meaningful look.
This glance has two main meanings.
First, Yun Panpan's words exposed her weakness in political rules.
He actually said in front of the emperor that he was guessing the emperor's thoughts. This is a taboo to some extent. There is even a line in the Qin law that clearly states the crime, called guessing the emperor's intentions.
However, in Zhao Xin's opinion, this law does not have much effect except for attempting to strengthen the emperor's majesty to a certain extent.
Oh, and it can also be used by court officials to attack and annihilate each other.
Other than that, it's really useless.
They say that speculation is not allowed, but who among those who want to be an official doesn’t speculate?
And does the emperor really hope that no one knows what he is thinking or what his intentions are?
In that case, how can the ministers do what the emperor wants to do but is unable to say it out loud?
How can we guide the direction of the political situation through some explicit or implicit hints?
For the emperor, what he was afraid of was not that his ministers could guess his thoughts, but what thoughts they guessed, and whether they would follow his instructions after guessing them, or pretend not to know, or even deliberately disobey his instructions and obstruct him.
For example, there were two emperors in the Ming Dynasty, one was Jiajing and the other was Chongzhen.
Regarding the former of these two people, some people say that he is a master of political tactics and that he ranks among the top five emperors in history in terms of political tactics. However, in Zhao Xin's view, he is not a master of political tactics, but a slave to political tactics.
First of all, he had forgotten that the emperor had not only political power but also great power.
He also forgot what the purpose of using power as an emperor was.
Not to mention serving the country and the people, even if he is just doing it for himself like Zhao Xin, he should understand what the fundamental purpose of being an emperor is.
Even if it is just to make the whole world satisfy his own selfish desires, the final result will not be very good.
He was actually pointed at by his own ministers and scolded, "The world has not been worthy of your majesty for a long time!"
What a failure, a failure among failures.
But no matter what, it is true that this person is good at using power and tactics.
This person also hates others guessing his thoughts the most, and for this reason, he even couldn't speak normally later.
But who are the people he trusts the most? Isn’t it Yan Song and his son, who are the ones who can guess his thoughts the best?
Chongzhen was just the opposite. He really hoped that someone could understand his thoughts and take the blame for him.
But because of his god-level operation, in the end there were not even any speculators left.
Everyone understood what he was thinking, but no one was willing to stand up. They all pretended not to know. If anyone dared to say that they knew, everyone would scold them to death.
In comparison, Song Gaozong Zhao Gou was much luckier, at least he had Qin Hui.
But the bad luck was that there was Qin Hui.
But whether they guessed or not, no one would say it in front of the emperor.
Of course, Yun Panpan did this intentionally to give Zhao Xin the impression that she understood nothing about these things and was very frank with the emperor.
If so, she succeeded.
Because that’s how Xin Zhao feels right now.
There was also another meaning in Zhao Xin's look. He couldn't help but wonder what Yun Panpan was thinking.
Have you also thought about the reasons that some dirty writers might make up?
Naturally, he just laughed off this little fantasy in his heart and would not delve into it any further, as it was not worth delving into.
But then Yun Panpan continued, "I have thought about it again and again. In addition to your Majesty's trust and recognition of me, I can only think of two reasons:
First, I am familiar with Dahuang County. I am not only familiar with the ordinary Qin people outside the mountains, but also with the natives in the mountains, and even those wild people who have fled to the mountains. "
"Savage?"
Zhao Xin couldn't help but interrupt her when he heard this. He frowned and asked, "Are there still wild people in the Great Wilderness Mountains?"
