Chapter 339: Rectify the Ministry of Officials
When Li Chengqian woke up, Li Shimin was still unconscious, and the four imperial doctors of the Shang Pharmacy were all summoned by Li Chengqian into the dormitory to check Li Shimin's pulse one by one.
Li Chengqian sat expressionlessly on the brocade pier next to Li Shimin's bed, Li Ke, Li Su, Li Zhi, Princess Changle, Princess Chengyang, Princess Xincheng and Princess Jinyang and other princes and princesses in Chang'an lined up and stood in front of Li Shimin's bed.
Previously, because Li Chengqian was not in Chang'an, Li Shimin did not summon relatives outside the palace to serve in the palace in order to conceal his illness.
Now that Li Chengqian has returned to Chang'an and obtained the power of the prison state, he naturally has to summon all these people into the palace to serve the sick.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, Your Majesty's illness has stabilized...... It's just that Your Majesty has been eating and drinking irregularly since he fell ill, and his body has been extremely weak, and now he has a fever again, and I am afraid that it is not the medicine stone that can be effective......"
After talking for a long time, Li Shimin was still unpredictable.
Several princesses shed tears when they heard this, Li Chengqian just waved his hand lightly and said, "You just have to prescribe medicine to Your Majesty, and use the alcohol of the Lonely King to reduce fever." β
Li Chengqian himself had limited knowledge of medical skills, and now he had no intention of propagating any new medical concepts to them.
"Your Ministers obey!" Several imperial doctors were obviously relieved when they heard this.
Li Chengqian glanced at them lightly and said: "Don't think that if you use the alcohol of the lonely king, your majesty's illness is the responsibility of the lonely king, if your majesty's illness has not improved, the lonely king will not be able to spare you." β
When several imperial doctors heard this, their hearts were clouded again, and they silently walked aside to discuss prescribing medicine to Li Shimin.
Li Chengqian turned his head to look at Li Shimin and then looked back at his younger siblings, and said lightly: "You don't have to worry too much, just take good care of your father." Several people nodded silently when they heard this.
Seeing this, Li Chengqian continued: "Lizhi's health is not good, today my father wakes up and talks to my father and goes back!" β
Li Lizhi couldn't help but look at Li Chengqian with wide eyes when she heard this, and after a while, she silently lowered her head and never said a word.
Li Chengqian knew that because the eldest grandson Wuji was exiled, the eldest grandson's family had a lot of opinions about him.
Li Chengqian didn't say much, and when he said this, he turned his head and instructed the attendants in the palace: "Send breakfast in." β
"Your Royal Highness the Prince, your edict to supervise the country has been read to the civil and military officials in front of the Chengtian Gate, and Master Chu asked you if you want to ascend to the throne of the East Palace Jiade Palace." Liu Kui walked in from the outside and said back and forth.
Early this morning, the palace struck the bell to convene hundreds of civil and military officials, because Li Shimin was ill and Li Chengqian was not qualified to convene the ministers in the Taiji Hall alone, so he ordered Chu Suiliang and others to read the edict of the state in front of Chengtianmen.
Hearing this, Li Chengqian got up and said lightly as he walked forward: "Prepare for the Lonely King to go to Chengtianmen." β
While walking out, he looked back and said to Li Ke: "Later, my father will wake up, you serve my father and have a little breakfast, and I will go to Chengtianmen to have a look and come back." β
Li Ke and the others watched Li Chengqian walk out, but when they turned around, they found that the old ghost was still standing in the hall, and they couldn't help but smile bitterly in their hearts.
Along the way, Liu Kui reported to Li Chengqian: Wei Renzhao and other ministers from the first family have connected a large number of middle and low-level officials in front of Tianmen, and plan to give Li Chengqian a disgrace later......
Li Chengqian listened to this, thinking in his heart that he had done a lot of things since the crossing and offended many people, and it was Li Shimin who stood up for him in front.
Anyone who wants to deal with Li Chengqian must do so by influencing Li Shimin, which is also the reason why a little misunderstanding between the two of them can make a big fuss, because there are always villains who stir up trouble in it.
Now that Li Shimin is suddenly seriously ill, he ordered Li Chengqian to supervise the country, and he did not even have an auxiliary minister with high prestige.
Such a form is certainly conducive to Li Chengqian's assumption of power, but it is also very easy to cause the officials below to directly clash with Li Chengqian, not to mention that the two sides themselves have deep contradictions.
Li Chengqian came to the Chengtian Gate in a sitting step, and saw nearly a thousand military attachΓ©s standing in front of the palace gate waiting for his order, and his heart was somewhat excited.
From calmly stepping down and standing in front of the door, the civil and military officials collectively bowed to him.
"See His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"
Seeing this, Li Chengqian took a deep breath, calmly raised his hands and said loudly: "Zhongqing is flat." β
The ministers did not move.
Li Chengqian was stunned, and hurriedly turned his head to look at Liu Kui standing next to him, Liu Kui was so excited by him that he hurriedly pulled his throat and said, "Flat." β
Only then did the ministers straighten up.
Immediately, Chu Suiliang walked out of the train and bowed with his fists and said: "His Royal Highness the Prince, Your Majesty has decreed that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will supervise the country, and the ministers respectfully ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to move to the East Palace Jiade Hall to ascend to the court to listen to the government." β
Li Chengqian waved his hand slightly when he heard this: "Chu Qing is flat, his father is seriously ill and lives in the country, and the lonely king should have gone to the East Palace Jiade Hall to listen to the government. Speaking of a pause, his eyes swept around the ministers who were standing respectfully below, sneered in his heart, and said with a look of embarrassment on his face: "But the lonely king still has to serve in the Ganlu Palace, and he can't listen to the government in the Jiadesheng Dynasty...... However, the state affairs are of the utmost importance, and the lone king is in the prince and deputy post to supervise the country, and he cannot mislead the country because of filial piety, and now he has issued an order to clean up several halls on the manna gate, and the lone king will accept the ministers above the three grades on the manna gate every day, and the rest will return to the government office to be diligent directors......"
Li Chengqian's call made it very clear that Li Shimin lived in the Taiji Palace before he recovered from his illness, and then he would meet with officials above the third rank in Ganlumen every day, and everyone else would go back to the government office to work hard.
The ministers heard that it was not polite to do this, and several ministers were about to come out to speak, but they saw Li Chengqian raise his hand and said: "My father has not taken the emperor's morning medicine, and the lonely king wants to go back to serve his father's medicine, and today's court discussion is here." He didn't wait for the ministers to say anything, and turned around and left
Before Li Chengqian left Chengtian Gate, he was suddenly blown up.
A large number of ministers who had opinions on Li Chengqian, Gao Shilian and Yang Shidao, surrounded them and begged them to assist Li Chengqian's pro-virtuous ministers and villains......
These people were emotionally angry and taught Gao Shilian and the others a hard lesson, and then they returned to their respective official offices as if they were victorious.
Of course, it will not stop when he returns to the official office, and he will start writing all kinds of things about Li Chengqian.
For example, the Royal Military and Political Academy recruits all government soldiers, and if the government soldiers all come out to be officials, then the children of the Qing noble family will have no way out, and the Royal Military and Political Academy will be abolished......
Fang Xuanling is the founding father of the country who is innocent and imprisoned, please reinstate Fang Xuanling......
There were even people who asked Cen Wenwen and others to overturn the case
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
In short, they didn't dare to play these recitals when Li Shimin was good, but now that Li Chengqian is in charge of the country, they are not afraid of anything, and they vent their dissatisfaction with a letter of enclosure.
Some people even hope that Li Chengqian can go on a killing spree again in Chang'an City, so that the world may be in chaos.
In the face of so many officials' remarks, and they are all alarmist statements quoting scriptures, if you meet a person with a weaker personality in the face of such a situation, you can only raise the flag and surrender.
But Li Chengqian just smiled coldly when he looked at these songs, and directly pushed them to the ground, and then ordered someone to pass Ma Zhou to see them.
After a while, Ma Zhou came to the Ganlu Gate to salute, and Li Chengqian asked directly: "Ma Qing's family received the secretary of the ministry last night, can I go to the director of the ministry today?"
Ma Zhou also knew the content of these officials' notes, and knew that Li Chengqian was preparing to retaliate against these officials through the officials.
In order to prevent Li Chengqian from doing things badly because he was too impatient, Ma Zhou directly went to the tunnel: "The minister has gone to the ministry today, but the minister is stupid, and the affairs of the ministry are very complicated, so it is difficult to get started for a while. β
Li Chengqian looked at Ma Zhou and nodded with a smile and said, "Where is Ma Qing's family, the Ministry of Officials is the head of the six departments, and whoever goes on the first day can't straighten things out." β
Ma Zhou was overjoyed when he heard this, and said with a sad face: "His Royal Highness Prince Xie is considerate, but I am afraid that it will take a few months to straighten out the government affairs of the ministry." After that, he secretly glanced at Li Chengqian, his face did not change, and his heart was slightly wider.
Li Chengqian listened to Ma Zhou's words and smiled slightly: "Ma Qing's family is really sincere, and they don't boast about themselves. King Gu also thought about how Ma Qing, the government affairs of the Ministry of Officials, would take several months to straighten out, so he had already ordered to send all the students of the Government Affairs College of the Royal Military and Political Academy to the Ministry of Officials to watch the government.
Ma Qing's family has been familiar with the government affairs of the Ministry of Officials in the past few months anyway, and you bother to accept these students and take them to familiarize themselves with the government affairs of the Ministry of Officials. β
"Ahh
Ma Zhou, who has always been known for his wisdom, looked at Li Chengqian's smile and knew that he had been tricked.
The students of the Royal Military and Political Academy are all meritorious soldiers and studied at the Royal Military and Political Academy for a year, but in the end they were not appointed by the Ministry of Officials, and they don't know what they hated in their hearts?
Isn't it provoking trouble to let them go into the ministry to watch the government?
But I want to be the teacher of these people?
Ma Zhou had a feeling of wanting to cry without tears.
