Chapter 821 Good Duty
"Since the teacher's ambition is still the same, of course the students should fulfill the teacher's wishes......"
Li Jing's heartbeat was about to stop, and the ghost wanted to return to Mayi, the Tiangao Emperor was far away from the bitter cold land, that is, if he drank too much, he would miss the "simple" folk customs there.
That's what I said, are you serious?
Fortunately, Li Po only made a little joke with his father-in-law, you said that you always tell us jokes, let's tease you too, don't you have to continue?
"The teacher is well-versed in military affairs and has a good way of governing the army, so why don't you go to the military department...... Although Wang Zhibi, the secretary of the military department, has been with me for many years, his talent is a little mediocre, so it is better to focus on the teacher, what does the teacher think? ”
A big pie smashed over, even if Li Jing drank a little too much, he still stood up, shook his head again and again, and said: "No, no, don't use people to be nepotistic, I have no achievements except for being related to the king, once I am in a prominent position, how can I convince people?"
The king also said that Wang Shangshu has followed him for many years, once the power falls, won't it make the people close to him feel cold? ”
Li Po nodded in his heart, this old man is actually a little more sincere, but he is not the kind of person who is greedy for power and does not know the importance of it.
The name Li Jing is not insignificant in his mind, this is a name with a shining aura, although he doesn't know what Li Jing has done, but he knows that this person seems to have fought a lot of battles with the Turks and made great contributions, otherwise how could he become famous later?
It's just that he always feels a little unreliable, because Li Jing is a little too old, when he first met Li Jing, Li Jing was already in his forties, so many years have passed, Li Jing is in his early fifties, and his hair is much grayer, what earth-shattering thing can he do?
Late bloomer? Well, it's okay to look at the bones of the body, but I don't know if I can still ride a horse and wear armor?
"What did the teacher say? As you know, I have few relatives and no parents or brothers...... The only one who can rely on it is the teacher, so even if I get a higher position, I think everyone will not say that I am nepotistic.
Thinking that Li Yuan appointed his relatives on a large scale, he was in a critical position, there were countless dignitaries in the Li family, and even his in-laws were added to the rank of knight, how many dared to say that he was not?
If his relatives had the humility of a teacher, they would not be in the disaster they are today...... If you want me to see the teacher, I don't have to refuse, and after some time, I will issue an edict to let the teacher take charge of the military department......"
Li Jing is very excited, the Ministry of War is still the book, this is naturally a position he looks forward to, but he is not a newcomer to officialdom, the sea has been up and down for so many years, even if his emotional intelligence is lower, but the rules in officialdom are already familiar.
He has not made any achievements in this half of his life, he can't convince people in terms of merit, not to mention his prestige, if it weren't for his son-in-law becoming famous, otherwise even if he lived in Chang'an for a long time, how many people know who Li Jing is?
If this rashly goes to be the secretary of the military department, how is it different from sending him to death?
Thinking of these, he woke up a lot, he had suffered too much, his nerves were quite sensitive, and he thought that if he responded today, he would end up miserable in the future, and he couldn't help but look up at his son-in-law several times, and said that it wasn't intentional for this guy, right?
You must know that when governing the army, he has heard a lot of dramas about using a relative's head to subdue everyone, and the effect is really good, does that mean that he Li Jing......
There is a benefit to suffering too much, and the vigilance is extremely high, and once someone has bad intentions, he can always detect it more or less.
Although looking at his son-in-law's "sincere" words and smile, people can feel his sincerity, but Li Jing still stubbornly refused, resolutely did not jump into the big pit, and even had no intention of stretching his feet to try.
With such a resolute attitude, Li Po retracted the suggestion "embarrassed", "Compared with the teacher, Pei Lin and the like, would rather be ashamed?" ”
Li Po praised again and again, and by the way, he took Pei Xuanzhen out and compared it, of course, it is not wronged, Pei Lin can be said to be mediocre, but he is in the high position of Shangshu's right servant, not to mention, he has to be crowned the Duke of Wei.
Even if he is popular among the six parts, everyone is afraid that they will have to say a word behind their backs, a lucky man.
How long has Li Pocai been in Chang'an, but he has heard a lot of things about Pei Lin in his ears, whether it is the eldest grandson Shunde or Xiao Yu, he has nothing good to say about Pei Lian, like Xiao Yu bluntly said that Pei Xuanzhen has no merit and no virtue, and he is not worthy of his position, but he is good friends with Li Yuan, so he lives in front of everyone.
looked very angry, and when Li Po asked the eldest grandson Shunde again, the eldest grandson Shunde said very clearly, Pei Lin was used to playing right and wrong in front of Li Yuan, and Xiao Yu was degraded twice, all of which had Pei Lian's credit.
Even he himself was inevitably slandered by Pei Lian...... Of course, it was the political dispute between Li Shimin, the king of Qin, and Li Jiancheng, the pseudo-prince, that caused this situation, and it was not just villains like Pei Xuanzhen who caused this situation.
So Li Po knew a few things, the eldest grandson Shunde seemed to be fairly fair, Xiao Yu, I am afraid that the strength is not big, it is estimated that it is because of the coldness of the Xiao family's portal, so Xiao Yu has no scruples when he speaks, and it is reasonable to say bad things about others.
Character determines fate, so it is understandable that Li Yuan doesn't like this brother-in-law, if Xiao Yu gets into trouble with Wen Yanbo and others, I think he will pick up the stick and give it to Xiao Shizi first, so that he will be sober and sober, and then talk about other things.
Li Jing humbled again and again, of course he knew who Pei Lin was, but compared with a celebrity like Pei Lin and the prime minister, it was the first time he had experienced it, and he had to be afraid.
When Li Po saw Li Jing back then, his impression of Li Jing was that he was steady and wise, talented and knowledgeable, and he was very envious of the aristocratic bearing shown in his conversation and demeanor, but he didn't like his son-in-law and student very much, which made people quite annoyed......
At that time, Li Po had little knowledge, and felt that people who were officials should be like Li Jing, who looked very majestic.
But now that the identity and status have undergone earth-shaking changes, after the two of them sat down and talked deeply, Li Jing can be said to be in his original form, the kind of stingy appearance that wants to be reused, but does not dare to take on big responsibilities, makes Li Po cry and laugh.
After repeated temptations, Li Po almost checked his pulse, and said with a smile: "It seems that the teacher has a choice in his heart?" It's better to listen to it, or that sentence, we are a family, even if the position is more prominent, no one dares to say it. ”
Yin Yin persuaded him, the official position was optional, Li Jing was in a trance, like in a dream, after waiting for so many years, the big pie fell from the sky, and finally fell on his head Li Jing, but he was smashed a little dizzy.
Li Jing is not only dizzy, but also quite entangled, a few days ago when Wei Jie and him got together, he chose a lot of official positions, and explained the pros and cons one by one, he also really liked a few positions, not high or low, can display his talents, if not, take a step back can also be leisurely.
Now his son-in-law is spreading his hands and making a generous mess, which makes him feel that the positions he chose are quite stingy, and he doesn't make the king, the student and son-in-law, laugh at it.
Well, this is Li Jing Li Pharmacist, who is humble on the outside, proud on the inside, and a bit of perfectionism.
Tilting his head and thinking for a long time, Li Po looked at him and was anxious for him, he didn't even think about where to go before? Thinking about it here? Thanks to you, I have a new understanding of this old man.
"If the teacher has no plan, then go back and think about it, I only have a vacant position here to ......" Speaking of this, Li Po also added for his sake, "For example, do you want to serve in Chang'an, or do you want to go to a place, do you want to be closer to your wife and children, or is your career more important?" ”
Li Jing nodded again and again, drank two more glasses, and finally seemed to have made up his mind, bowed, and buried his head in his sleeve, "At this time, the minister and the king are both monarchs and ministers, and relatives, and they dare not miss the big thing. ”
Li Po straightened up a little, and breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, he had been staying with those obedient and intelligent people for a long time, and it was extremely difficult to talk to someone like Li Jing.
From the time the two met until now, they were almost drunk, and only then did they hear a sentence from this person's mouth that he wanted to hear, you said that you are not tired.
And in Li Po's view, if Li Jing can't correct his identity, it will actually be the same matter where he is in office, and the festival here is very specific from Yuen Long.
This person has never been able to find the position, and if he can get by, he can only be raised as a child, and he can't afford any big things.
And Li Jing obviously finally realized this, otherwise he would not be able to say that he is both a monarch and a relative, hearing this, Li Po is really "pleased", having a relative like Li Jing to help...... It's going to be easier in the future, right?
However, looking at both sides, Li Jing's performance was not good, but his loyalty was highlighted.
Li Po also learned from Li Jing and pondered for a long time before he said cautiously: "The teacher knows the soldiers, and I know the soldiers...... I also heard that the teacher once led the army into Shu, and he won several times a day...... It's just that I don't know if the teacher is interested in military merit? ”
One sentence scratched Li Jing's itch again, his lips squirmed, and in the end, only one sentence came, "It's true, but it's a pity that I didn't do my best." ”
Li Po smiled, but said in his heart, what you said is really wrong, then if you kill Xiao Miao, what will happen to your son-in-law?
While making a hesitation, "Now that Kansai is a little settled, only there are remnants of the Li family entrenched in Shu, if it can't be broken as soon as possible, let it gain a firm foothold, I'm afraid that there will be a worry about separation, the teacher has led troops into Shu, it's better to ......"
Speaking of this, Li Po himself began to shake his head, "If it doesn't work, how can you bear to be separated when you meet the teacher?" The teacher is not young, and the road is long and dangerous...... I'm going to be blamed, so forget it. ”
Li Jing's heart went up and down, and he began to dance with the baton, and finally couldn't help it, "The minister is not old, and he is quite familiar with the terrain in Shuzhong, so he will not miss the major military situation, but ...... Could it be that the northwest has descended? ”
His keen sense of war is really not blown.
