Chapter 1304 Handover

No, from now on, I will hand over all the power to you, the imperial envoy, and I will only have military power. You are responsible for the charge and I will be responsible for the suppression of bandits. When the war is over, I will hand over the military power to you and relegate to the fields."

Luo Xin nodded silently.

"But you have to do one thing for me."

"What's the matter?"

"Military pay."

"Don't worry, no problem." Luo Xin nodded and said, "I have also brought soldiers, so I naturally know the importance of military pay to the army."

Hu Zongxian looked at Luo Xin with complicated eyes and said, "I was worried that after I left, there would be turmoil in the south. After all, the aristocratic families in the south were very difficult to deal with. With me here, they dare not be presumptuous. If someone else came, I would probably be killed by these aristocratic families.

But I feel relieved if you are here to stay."

Luo Xin's eyes sternly said: "It would be fine if those aristocratic families were sensible. If they were not, I wouldn't mind erasing one or two of them from the aristocratic families."

Hu Zongxian felt a sudden shock. He suddenly remembered that Luo Xin had confiscated the Lu family in the south. His ruthlessness directly made all the aristocratic families in the south lose their voices.

"I'm relieved!"

Hu Zongxian laughed loudly, with bitterness in his laughter.

At this time, he suddenly understood in his heart!

Emperor Jiajing did not do it without him, the Ming Dynasty did not do it without him, and the south did not do it without him.

With Luo Xin's prestige, he probably did better than him in the south.

It's my own expansion!

He also secretly made a letter from the southern officials, saying that the south cannot live without him. Now that he thinks about it, he feels so embarrassed.

"No!" He looked at Luo Xin with emotion and said, "After I hand over the power of the military and political power to you, you will take over the military and political power in the south. Are you not afraid of going on my old path?"

"No!" Luo Xin shook his head very simply.

"No?" Hu Zongxian said: "Do you think Your Majesty will trust you unconditionally? Gao Gong will support you? Xu Jie will let you go?"

"No, you understand it wrong." Luo Xin smiled faintly and said, "I will not be in charge of the south, and I don't even have the idea of ​​being a single term. When will Your Majesty ask me to return to Beijing, I will return to Beijing immediately."

"You... are you really not indulging in power at all?" Hu Zongxian looked at Luo Xin with a bright look.

"You can't say that either." Luo Xin looked at Hu Zongxian's gaze without any concealment and said with regret: "Brother, I still don't understand what you are thinking."

"What does it mean?" Hu Zongxian looked at Luo Xin in confusion.

"Brother, you are not a military general, you are also a Jinshi. You should know that in the local area, your achievements have reached the highest level. There is no room for progress in the local area. So, I thought that after the Japanese pirates were wiped out, your eyes should have looked at the capital, but unexpectedly, you started to think about Yongzhen in the south.

Is it more fulfilling to govern a south than to govern the entire Ming Dynasty?”

Hu Zongxian was silent for a moment, but finally sighed:

"I am different from you. You are the top scholar, and I am just a Jinshi. Local officials are already the highest point I can go to, and going to the general and prime minister is just an illusion. If I return to Beijing, even if I let me enter the cabinet, I will just leave me idle for a few years and then let me retire."

Luo Xin shook his head in his heart. Through his own analysis, Emperor Jiajing really trained Hu Zongxian as a cabinet, but Hu Zongxian himself was not patient enough and he had gone wrong.

After all this, what can Luo Xinyou say?

"Forget it!" Hu Zongxian said with some slight urge: "I don't think so much. I will fight this last battle well, which can be considered as a beginning and an end."

"Yeah!" Luo Xin nodded and said, "Brother, as long as you fight this last battle well, I will be able to operate. And you are nearly sixty years old, and you have been in the south for many years. There is nothing wrong with it when you are going to take care of it."

Hu Zongxian left, and Luo Xin became busy. Prime Minister Nanfang Government Affairs and wanted to provide logistics for Hu Zongxian, and he only had two hours of sleep every day.

And the most important thing is that Luo Xin was not justified at this time. He was just an imperial envoy and had no intention to let him preside over the government affairs of the South.

However, Luo Xin couldn't care about so much. He knew that only by sorting out the southern government affairs and doing a good job in logistics for Hu Zongxian could Hu Zongxian fight this last battle well. Only when Hu Zongxian fights this last battle well could he protect Hu Zongxian. Otherwise, it would not be surprising that Emperor Jiajing killed him with the bullshit things that Hu Zongxian did before.

Of course, he also rushed to Emperor Jiajing for eight hundred miles, and explained the southern affairs in detail, explaining his actions at this time to quell the rebellion as soon as possible.

Fortunately, Luo Xin had a very high prestige in the south, and the people of the Fuxing Society also had considerable power in the southern officialdom, which showed the benefits of Luo Xin's layout in the south. Although some people were not convinced by Luo Xin, especially those of the Xu Party, which made Luo Xin's government affairs not so efficient, it was also smooth.

Luo Xin also knew in his heart that he was in a very sensitive position at this time.

Whether it is the cabinet or Emperor Jiajing, I definitely don’t want to go to Hu Zongxian, and another Luo Xin came to take charge of the south. I am afraid that in their hearts, Luo Xin was more terrifying than Hu Zongxian taking charge of the south.

Hu Zongxian has all kinds of problems and is full of corruption and bribery.

However, Luo Xin did not.

Hu Zongxian had a foundation in the south, and Luo Xin's foundation in the south was not weak.

Moreover, when Hu Zongxian was in the south, he had never controlled the Maritime Warrior Division. However, who dares to say that Luo Xin did not control the Maritime Warrior Division?

Although the Maritime Site has changed several times, there is no doubt that no one has ever been able to erase Luo Xin's influence on the Maritime Site.

The most important thing is that Luo Xin, who is known as the Ming Dynasty military god, has absolutely no influence in the military that Hu Zongxian can compare with.

Hu Zongxian only had influence on the southern army.

But what about Luo Xin?

He has a great influence on the southern army, so don’t believe it. Even though Hu Zongxian was in the southeast, Yu Dayou also turned to Luo Xin, and Qi Jiguang had long been like-minded with Luo Xin, so Hu Zongxian deprived Qi Jiguang of military power before.

Yu Dayou and Qi Jiguang are the two most capable armies under Hu Zongxian!

When Hu Zongxian controlled the south, Luo Xin was able to control these two armies, which shows Luo Xin's influence in the military.

This is nothing. In addition to the south, Luo Xin has a greater influence in the north, and even has a significant influence on the five military camps in the capital.

This is so scary!

If such a person is allowed to sit in the south and control hundreds of thousands of troops, who can curb it once he has a strange intention?
