Chapter 1373 Succession
"So Wanjuan Shushan and Mingshanzong both agreed with your strategy?"
In the yamen of the Imperial City Commander, Pang Ban put down a copper bar in his hand with a smile on his face, and it was the employment strategy that Shen Hao vacated this time.
Even though such a big event was played under the banner of Fenghong Villa, the fact that it was done was the matter of the Black Flag Camp, or Xuanqingwei. In any case, it is necessary to report to Pang Ban in real time. And the whole matter must be approved by Pang Ban before it can be implemented.
Shen Hao stood by the side as usual, and replied: "Yes, my lord, Wanjuan Shushan and Mingshanzong have clearly agreed to this strategy through Xiang Liu and Zhong Hongye, but some details still need to be worked out." Grinding. It is estimated that it will take at most two or three days before it can officially land."
"Very good! Shen Hao, you really have the skills! Over the past two years, Xuan Qingwei has racked his brains to find a way to break the situation, but no one can do anything. In the end, he can only wait for His Majesty to embarrass himself with those civil and military officials. Make calculations. But in that case, the trust between us Xuan Qingwei and His Majesty will be greatly affected.
Hehe, you have only come back for a few days and found a breakthrough. I have to say that now that Xuan Qingwei is away from you, it is like a bird with its wings broken. You can't live without it! "
Shen Hao bowed quickly when he heard the words, and said repeatedly, "Don't dare, my subordinates are terrified!"
Pang Ban laughed and waved his hands. The only shortcoming of Shen Hao in his eyes was that he lacked the aggressiveness of a young man and was too mature and calm. But this kid is really capable. Only a few days after returning, the problem that plagued Xuan Qingwei was solved. Even if the overall situation cannot be reversed later, Xuan Qingwei can definitely be picked out of it, and the conflict with the emperor can also be avoided.
The big stone in Pang Ban's heart fell to the ground at this moment.
"Hahaha, don't be humble. You are now in the position of commander of the Black Flag Battalion, and you have received a fourth-rank title. The merits are already full, and the only thing missing is seniority. This time, you will make another great contribution, plus With your current cultivation base, it will no longer be a problem to give you a fourth-rank title."
Shen Hao did not object to Pang Ban's promotion. However, those of the fourth grade in Xuanqingwei are all commanders, and they will not hold real positions. This is not what he wants.
So Shen Hao asked tentatively after a moment of consideration: "Thank you, my lord, for your support. However, if this subordinate is hired as a commander, who will take over the position of commander of the Black Flag Battalion now?"
This question is not too abrupt. According to the usual practice, Xuan Qingwei will recommend or recommend his successor before retiring from office. Unless otherwise arranged by the higher authorities, it is very likely that the successor will be nominated by the outgoing person. Coupled with the personal relationship between Shen Hao and Pang Ban, it is completely fine for him to ask directly.
Of course, Shen Hao was just probing. He didn't want to just leave the Black Flag Battalion commander's yamen to become a commander without real power. It's just that he can't say it directly.
Pang Ban pointed at Shen Hao, shook his head and said with a smile: "What are you thinking, kid? You and I are brothers and sisters, so why are there so many twists and turns? Are you worried that I will draw you to the command office to hang you idle? Right? Just say it!"
Shen Hao scratched his head with a smile when he heard this, as a tacit consent to what Pang Ban said. At the same time, he knew that he was worrying too much, and Pang Ban didn't seem to have thought about transferring him from the position of the leader of the Black Flag Battalion.
Sure enough, I heard Pang Ban continue to say: "As an important high-end military force in Xuanqing Guard, commanding the affairs is to let them have more time to meditate. The position is given to the newcomers below, so that there will always be fresh blood flowing in Xuanqing Guard, so that it will not become rotten.
But you boy is different. Your age, your cultivation, and the most important thing is your luck, you can completely ignore the matter of commanding him. Now except for a few people in the entire Xuanqing Guard, the rest are not your opponents, so it doesn't make much sense whether you meditate or not.
And I also asked the two masters, what they mean is to let you maintain your previous life, experience and move forward in this secular world, it is not appropriate to interfere with your path, worrying that it will be the opposite.
Besides, as I said just now, you are now an indispensable part of Xuanqingwei, and the Black Flag Battalion has long been irreplaceable in Xuanqingwei's system. Without you, the Black Flag Battalion can only be mediocre and have no achievements. This has been proven for more than two years. So I'm going to only give you a half-level title to enter the fourth rank, but I won't let you move. You will continue to lead the Black Flag Battalion.
Would you like to? "
With a snap, Shen Hao stood upright, cupped his hands and raised his voice: "This subordinate will live up to your expectations!"
"Okay, okay! What I want is your strength. After waiting for two years, after you have settled in the position of the fourth rank, help a few cronies to come up, and I will add to your burden. This Xuanqingwei will have to rely on it in the future." With fresh blood like you, my old bones should have a few days of leisure."
"My lord, this is you." Shen Hao didn't know how to respond. It was the first time he heard Pang Ban say this in person, and he was clearly telling him that he was going to be the next successor of the commander of Xuan Qingwei. in cultivation. Otherwise, he would not be allowed to help his cronies up.
Shen Hao has always heard that Pang Ban is cultivating him as his successor, but after all, his previous cultivation is limited, even if Pang Ban really thinks that way, it is definitely not about the immediate future. So Shen Hao never really took the matter of "successor" to heart. After all, the world is full of changes and changes, so don't expect too much about anything, or you will be the one who suffers in the end.
But now the situation has changed drastically. The blood essence and soul fragments of the Eyeless Beast Ancestor in the underground palace allowed Bai Wu to recover from his injuries. Shen Hao also encountered a great opportunity and became a third-level monk in the Xuanhai Realm. All obstacles to becoming Pang Ban's "successor" were evened out.
And I heard that Pang Ban mentioned the obvious signal, and the time, all used "two years", which is definitely "very soon" for a monk. In other words, Pang Ban has already arranged this matter on the agenda!
Pang Ban picked up the hot tea on the table, took a sip, and said bluntly without hesitation: "I am now in the third level of the Xuanhai Realm, just like you, but the difference is that you are new here, and I have been here for many years.
I thought that there would be no more progress, but the world is unpredictable. Although I have been busy with official duties these years, I have never slackened in my practice. I have realized something in the busyness, and I even gradually feel that I can go further, but I have to be in a relative You can only try it in a relaxed environment.
Haha, I thought I would have to suppress it for many years, but I didn't expect your kid to surprise me suddenly. Therefore, I am going to hand over Xuan Qingwei's mess to you as soon as possible.
Let me tell you today, after you go down, you have to start making preparations. "
"My lord, over there, Your Majesty."
"It's okay, I will talk to your majesty, you don't have to worry about it."
