The Civil Affairs Bureau is not a good job, but it is definitely an offensive job within the entire administrative system.

First of all, the identities exported by immigrants are generally not interested in the Immigration Bureau, and the provinces imported by immigrants are also quarreling and share a little more. Then the financial support of the Immigration Bureau is also extremely unstable. Sometimes, in order to complete immigration, the Immigration Bureau’s favorite method is to take projects.

For example, building a large steel nationalization company in Xijin can bring in thousands of immigrants, and these people will bring their families and mobilize some relatives and friends to go there, which will eventually affect the migration of tens of thousands of people. However, similar large enterprises are not Jianlai to play, and they will obviously move the cakes of other departments. The drastic changes in fiscal expenditure will always cause storms in the General Administration.

Unlike Li Zhaoyu's work that was subject to the arrangements of the emperor and his father, Li Zhaocheng took the initiative to preside over the affairs of the Immigration Bureau. The reason is very simple. He presided over the security affairs of the South American Bureau and deeply realized that the core of the people who wanted the empire to completely swallow up those rich places overseas was immigration.

In his words, the empire now has less than three million people in the Americas (including two provinces in North America, North American fiefdoms, South American jurisdiction and Panama). Europe will still covet America, but what if the empire has 30 million people in the Americas? European countries will completely cut off this mind.

Su Ri'an thought that Li Zhaoyu was here to ask about the Korean Peninsula, but he was just a brotherly friendship to say something for his younger brother. After all, Su Ri'an is famous and has served as a parent official in Dongjiang Province, which is very helpful in boosting the confidence of immigrants, but the fact is that this matter is not that simple at all.

Prince Yu’s Mansion, Wanbao Building.

Li Junwei did not filial to his father in the imperial tomb. This was Li Mingxun's will and Li Junwei's own wish. Since returning from Beijing, Li Junwei's interest has been low. Except for the day he came back, he went to the palace to attend the funeral, and never left the royal family again. He spent most of the day in Wanbao Tower.

According to Taizu's will, except for the ones clearly distributed to his children, everything else was taken care of by King Yu. During this period, Li Junwei specially cleaned up several rooms in Wanbao Building and counted the things left by his father. Sometimes he stayed for a day, and most of the time, he picked up something and sat blankly for several hours.

"Dad, where is this thing?" A voice woke up Li Junwei, who was sitting in a photo album.

Li Junwei looked up and saw that it was his second son Li Zhaocheng. He put on his sleeves and opened a new wooden box, which contained a set of well-maintained bows and arrows. It was very gorgeous, so gorgeous that it felt a bit flashy. Li Junwei remembered that it was his youth. When he saw his second brother learning archery, he followed him, but his palm collapsed and he sealed it since then.

"Oh, don't unpack it for now." Li Junwei responded casually.

"Dad, just sit there and rest, just scratch your son and do it." Li Zhaocheng said with a smile, waving his hands.

Li Junwei shook his head, patted the chair beside him, signaled his son to sit down, and said, "This is not done in a short time. Besides, I can't think of where to put anything, sit down and talk to me."

Li Zhaocheng responded and did not sit down directly, but went out to bring tea. The two of them sat in a sunny place among the boxes and drank tea, but did not make tea. Each one held a teapot, each holding it and drinking.

"That day I entered the palace. I heard from King Cheng that you took the mission from the Immigration Bureau over." Li Junwei said.

Li Zhaocheng nodded: "Yes, the emperor gave me a job title, full name is Xijin, America and other places for civil affairs management... It seems that it is just such an official title."

Li Zhaocheng could not remember the full name of this official title, but it sounded like a temporary official title. This is also helpless. Although the children of the royal family entered the administrative system to experience practical work, they were usually very young, but they could not really start from the bottom. If they were a secretary or something, they could not take care of a certain matter. They often failed to experience it, but instead became worldly and sophisticated.

Therefore, the emperor gave a temporary dispatch, with office and power, but without titles, he would not mess up the original administrative system.

"Why do you think of doing such an errand?" Li Junwei said.

Li Zhaocheng laughed: "What else can I do? I want to lead troops to fight, but the world is peaceful and there is no war to fight. Although the conflicts around Europe are considered wars, they are diplomatic strategies after all, and I don't know much about these, and I really can't play with those old foxes.

But if you do nothing, your bones will be stiff. After thinking about it, you will still go to the Immigration Bureau. Just playing tricks will lead to twice the result with half the effort.”

The actual experience of the children of the royal family is also an old rule passed down from the founding period. But there is one thing that everyone who has a practical experience cannot do a job that invites people's hearts and has to offend people. Li Junduo's practical experience in addition to commanding troops was a disarmament. The first time the emperor's work today was also the land acquisition during the construction of the Beijing-Tianjin Railway. Anyway, there was nothing good to work.

The Immigration Bureau is also a job that offends people and is suitable for the children of the royal family. As Li Zhaocheng said, immigration is just a place to be a rude person. If you want money and people, you have to be a rude person. You have to be a rude person. You are thick-skinned when playing with the superiors and unreasonable when playing with the subordinates. Li Zhaocheng is familiar with these hooligan tricks.

"Why, is this no motivation?" Li Junwei asked with a smile.

Li Zhaocheng laughed and said open-mindedly: "This is considered to be open-minded."

Li Junwei asked: "What do you say?"

Li Zhaocheng thought for a while and said, "I still remember Grandpa said that when he decided to ascend the throne and become emperor, a large part of the reason was that he remembered you and two uncles, who wanted to pass everything on to his children. But when I saw that little guy Shiyuan, I thought about this, but not this.

It's this, I want to give this child a bright future, not this, I'm worried that my efforts will harm the child. My elder brother and I compete for the throne, not family property, and family property can be cut, but only a few points or more. But there is only one throne, which is unparalleled.

And there will always be one person who will fail. When will it fail, it is a brain-struggling question. I think you and the emperor have also had a headache about this problem."

Li Junwei nodded: "Yes, the emperor has always had a headache about this. He once asked me, if you choose a successor from you brothers, how should you tell the other children? In fact, he was a little tactful, because I know that in his heart, there are only two choices, you and Zhaoyu, and he doesn't know how to explain to the losers among your brothers."

"Can I ask, how did you answer?" Li Zhaocheng asked.

Li Junwei thought for a while and said, "I did not give a clear answer. In fact, this question has not been solved. The emperor thinks that you two are my sons and should be solved by me, but I think that he is the emperor and should be solved by him. We are still in the stage of shirking responsibility for each other."

Li Zhaocheng nodded and said, "My solution is to prevent our brothers from fighting to the point of death and bloodshed. The grudges and grudges between the uncle and the emperor have been affected throughout his life. I don't want such things to happen in Prince Yu's Mansion."

Li Junwei frowned slightly, surprised by his son's open-mindedness. He said, "You won't tell me, you quit, have you told the emperor?"

Li Zhaocheng shook his head directly: "I didn't tell the emperor, I didn't dare to tell him yet. This kind of thing is not that two boys compete for one girl, and one chooses to withdraw. Just say I wish you happiness and it's over. I am willing to withdraw. The eldest brother is happy to see it happen, and the emperor may not be happy. The eldest brother and I are sharpening each other's whetstones. Not only do we have to compete, but we also sharpen the other party. Before the eldest brother becomes the person the emperor wants, how can I strike if I want to strike?

As for whether to withdraw, I didn't decide. I just felt that my elder brother was more like an emperor than me. I...ah, to put it bluntly, I never thought of becoming an emperor since I was a child. At that time, Zhaoji was there, and I always thought that the throne belonged to him.

When I was a child, Zhaoji and I agreed that when he became emperor, I would make me a general, leading one million troops and one hundred battleships to sweep the world. Until Zhaoji passed away, I thought there would be another Zhaoji, but no one expected that my elder brother and I would be pushed to the forefront."

"Then have you ever thought about becoming an emperor?" Li Junwei asked.

Li Zhaocheng laughed: "I thought about it, I dreamed of being an emperor. But that was just a dream. Being an emperor may not be a first-class beauty, especially for potential heirs of the imperial throne. For heirs of other countries and royal families of other dynasties, being an emperor means supreme power, but for us, being an emperor means carrying the largest country in the world on our shoulders. I also have such ambitions, but do I have such ability?

Can I carry it? I feel I can't carry it."

"The emperor is still prosperous in spring and autumn, and I am also energetic. You are only over twenty years old, why do you see so thoroughly? Do you think that after you are twenty years old, people will not grow up or make progress? You are wrong, a child, a man's physical maturity is mature at the age of twenty, but psychological maturity takes a lifetime.

Especially for politicians, I think it is not too late to admit that they have failed when they are forty years old.” Li Junwei said to his son.

Li Zhaocheng took a sip of water and said, "It is precisely because you and the emperor are here that I think I am even more incapable. Dad, do you know how much pressure it is to have a father like you? No matter how much I do or how much effort I put in, the achievements I have achieved are not worth mentioning for your achievements. Even if I become emperor, I am an emperor who happened to catch up with the Zhongping period of the dynasty.

The third emperor of the empire must have inherited the past and opened the future, and must have been unknown. Even if I have been an emperor for decades, people of the time and descendants will not think that I can compare with you and the emperor."

This has been in Li Zhaocheng's heart for many years. Today, there is only father and son, and he is willing to say it when he wants to say everything to his father.

But Li Junwei was not angry at all. He shrugged: "This is the law of history, and I have no choice. In our generation, the expansion of the empire has reached its limit. You can only maintain your achievements to the outside world and will never have the achievements of dynasty expanding territory at the beginning.

And inside, you can only endure internal corruption, rigidity and inclination, and endure challenges from political forces from all parties. It is difficult for your generation, but not yourself, it is difficult for both the top and the bottom, and you can only do it for the most part."

"Yes, I don't back down, I just... I just admit that I am indeed not as good as my elder brother. I don't know whether the difference in abilities between us is the difference in talent or the acquired efforts, and I don't want to know. As your son, the descendant of the Li family, a patriot, I want to do something within my ability, that's all." Li Zhaocheng said.

Li Junwei nodded with relief and couldn't help but joke with his son: "Be careful, your idea can save an empire."

Li Zhaocheng waved his hand and asked, "Then do I want to express my feelings to the emperor?"

"No, this is my business. Just make your choice." Li Junwei said directly, because he had long discovered that the emperor actually liked his eldest son Li Zhaoyu more, and he was so rational that he was a little cold-blooded that his eldest son's talent exceeded that of his second son. In fact, the biggest highlight of the second son lies in his mind and demeanor. As for ability, it is really not worth mentioning for an important position like the emperor.

Li Zhaocheng breathed a long sigh and felt relieved. Obviously he didn't know how to explain such a thing to the emperor. To put it bluntly, the emperor did not even say in person that Li Zhaocheng was also one of the candidates for the heir to the throne.

Li Zhaocheng thought about it and asked the next question. He asked: "If one day, my elder brother becomes the emperor, how should I get along with him?"

Li Junwei laughed: "This is also a question that I cannot answer, or I will not answer this question to you. Because it doesn't make sense, on the day your elder brother became emperor, I will still be alive and the emperor is alive. The throne inheritance of the empire is still abdicating. You should ask, one day your second uncle and I die, how should you face the elder brother who is already the emperor."

Li Zhaocheng shook his head: "Then there is no need to ask."

Li Junwei nodded with relief: "That's good, you can relax in the future. As a person who has experienced it, what I want to tell you is that if you can let go of the burden of being an emperor and do things for this country, you will be more comfortable, such as like me.
