At the gate of Shuntian Prefecture Yamen.
Chen Qiuyu was wearing official uniform and had a serious expression on his face.
Today is his first day at the Shuntian Prefecture Yamen, and he still feels very stressed.
Beside Chen Qiuyu stood a eunuch wearing a red eunuch uniform with a smile on his face.
This person was naturally none other than Chen Hong, the eunuch in charge of the Imperial Household Department.
Chen Qiyu had never expected that it was Chen Hong who would escort him to the yamen today. He knew in his heart that this was His Majesty's way of looking after him.
He was very touched in his heart. After all, having Chen Hong come to see him off was a sign of support for him.
At the same time, Chen Qiyu also felt the pressure. If this happened, he was afraid that more people would be dissatisfied with him.
Heaving a sigh of relief, Chen Qiyu turned to Chen Hong and said, "Thank you, eunuch."
"Mr. Chen, you are too polite. We are also following the order of His Majesty." Chen Hong said with a smile.
"Please let Eunuch Chen thank His Majesty on my behalf, but I still want to go in by myself. This is the Shuntian Prefecture Yamen, and it will be my Yamen from now on." Chen Qiuyu said, turning his head to look at the gate of the Shuntian Prefecture Yamen.
After a moment's silence, he continued, "Although the road ahead is difficult, I still want to go it alone. Your Majesty is watching me, and I don't want to disappoint Your Majesty. I will definitely be able to walk this path well. I will show everyone that Your Majesty was not wrong in selecting me, Chen Qiyu. I, Chen Qiyu, deserve it!"
Chen Hong was slightly stunned, and at the same time, he felt a little emotional. If others had such an opportunity, they might use him to pressure others. After all, he was just a county magistrate, and his foundation was not stable. He didn't know anyone in the government office, and even had no one to protect him in the capital.
Several cabinet ministers had tried to bribe Chen Qiyu before, but he had rejected them all. Under such circumstances, Chen Qiyu still had the courage to refuse, which showed that he was a man with ideas in mind.
Whether it is courage, boldness, or confidence in his own abilities, Chen Qiuyu is top-notch in all aspects.
Chen Hong smiled and said, "Then we wish Mr. Chen smooth sailing and a prosperous career."
"Your humble servant is here to see my eunuch off." Chen Qiuyu said with a smile and a bow.
Chen Hong did not stay any longer, but turned around and walked away.
Chen Hong is going to tell the emperor what happened here. He believes that the emperor must be very curious and will definitely be very happy after knowing it.
Looking at Chen Hong's leaving back, the smile on Chen Qiuyu's face slowly faded.
Li Fang, who was standing beside him, also came over. Looking at Chen Hong's departing figure, she said with a wry smile, "Sir, why are you doing this?"
"In life, there are things we should do and things we shouldn't do," Chen Qiyu said slowly. "Ever since I started school, I've been determined to read the books of sages and contribute to the world. Today, I finally have the opportunity."
"Although the Ming Dynasty isn't doing well right now and is plagued by numerous problems, I see hope. With Your Majesty, the Ming Dynasty has a chance of revival. I am willing to pave the way for Your Majesty. If you succeed, your name will be remembered in history; if you fail, your reputation will be shattered."
"I am fearless. This time, I am going to break through the darkness of the Ming Dynasty officialdom."
Li Fang, standing here, looked at Chen Qiuyu with some hesitation on her face.
He felt that the adults in his family were different, really different.
Especially after coming into contact with Chen Sihai, my master became less gentle but more fierce; less maneuverable but more courageous.
Li Fang subconsciously asked, "What if I never come back?"
Chen Qiyu lifted his robe and walked slowly but firmly up the steps of the Shuntian Prefecture government office, saying word by word, "Then I will never come back."
Western Garden.
Chen Hong stood in front of Zhu Youxiao and told him everything. Then he stood aside respectfully and said nothing more.
At this time, there was no expression on Zhu Youxiao's face.
He walked to the palace gate, and the breeze blew his hair and rustled his clothes, making a whistling sound.
The sky was gloomy and the clouds blocked the sun, but occasionally a little light was emitted.
Zhu Youxiao smiled, raised his hand gently, and said slowly: "This is the best of times, but also the worst of times."
"With the law of heaven in my mouth, and the sun and moon upon my body. Wherever my Great Ming shines, all that is left is the land of the Han people. When all the mountains and rivers are covered with Chinese land, the sun and moon will once again open up the Great Ming Dynasty."
Chen Hong stood not far away, looking at Zhu Youxiao who was caught in the howling wind, and his body suddenly trembled.
Originally, Chen Hong didn't understand something, but at this moment, he seemed to understand it.
"Your Majesty is the eternal hero, the holy ruler of the Ming Dynasty's revival!"
Chen Hong lifted his robe, knelt gently on the ground, and praised loudly: "Long live our emperor, long live, long live the emperor."
As he shouted, everyone around him knelt down and shouted loudly.
Zhu Youxiao looked at the sky in the distance.
The dark clouds parted and sunlight filled the Forbidden City.
At this moment, Zhu Youxiao's heart was full of hope.
Don't worry about having no friends on the road ahead, I will split the sun and the moon and rebuild the Ming Dynasty!
At the same time, in the southwest.
A battle is going on fiercely.
Chongqing, the front line of the war. Ever since She Chongming's rebellion, Chongqing has been in turmoil.
The city's inhabitants held out for over thirty days, a state of panic gripping the city. Everyone waited for reinforcements. They firmly believed the imperial court would not abandon them.
Although the rebels were attacking from all sides and were said to have occupied Hejiang and Zunyi, Chongqing was still holding on. Everyone knew that Chongqing could not be lost.
