Li Longji didn't pay attention to the noise in the hall, and now he thinks that he is in power, as the son of heaven, why should he explain anything to his courtiers?

At that moment, he continued to issue the order of reward, Pei Min was followed by Wang Maozhong, who was originally General Longwu, and was promoted to the rank of General Zuo Wuwei, and entered the title of Huo Guogong. www.biquge.info The remaining Ge Fushun, Li Xianqiu, Xue Jungu, Ma Xu, etc. also have their own rewards, but only Pei Min and Wang Maozhong are knighted.

When the news reached the Ministry of War, even Pei Min couldn't imagine that he would be able to be crowned as the Duke of the Kingdom, and he had to sigh that Conglong Gong did have inexplicable power in ancient times. A soldier, working hard and fighting step by step, may not be able to spell the title of a duke in his life, but a dragon skill allows him to directly enter the title of the duke from a white body.

However, Pei Min also knew that his prince had a lot of water, and the Tang Dynasty's food and yi had two concepts: virtual sealing and real sealing. He, the Duke of Liangguo, has very few real feudal euphemisms, just an honorary title. There is still a certain gap between him and the Guogong who really fought step by step with his merits and had a real seal of food. But no matter what, a Guogong is a Guogong, even if it is a Guogong with moisture, it is also a Guogong.

When Pei Min's colleagues heard the news, they were envious and celebrated, and they all intended to have a good relationship with him.

"Pei Shi Yushi!"

Just as Pei Min was dealing with his enthusiastic colleagues, Gao Lishi came with the news of Li Longji's summons.

Pei Min confessed and entered the palace with Gao Lishi.

Not only Pei Min, as Li Longji's most trusted person, Gao Lishi is also worth double. He was originally a eunuch, but he was awarded the official doctor Yinqing Guanglu as an exception, and he was not only responsible for taking care of Li Longji's private life, but also responsible for handling foreign affairs.

Pei Min still has some admiration for this first person of the ancient virtuous eunuch, although he is not a good person in history, but he has not done anything hurtful, and his loyalty to Li Longji is indeed moving.

"Gao Nei, I don't know what Your Majesty is looking for me?" Pei Min and Li Longji are not familiar with each other, and this time they have made a contribution to the dragon because of Guo Yuanzhen's recommendation, and the two have not had in-depth contact. Seeing that this time was not long after the next dynasty, and this time the court invited him to go, Pei Min was really a little unaccustomed to it.

Gao Lishi has a gentle temperament, and said softly: "Your Majesty's thoughts, how do I know." However, His Majesty attaches great importance to the history of the Imperial Servant, which must be a good thing. ”

Pei Min nodded, and did not ask, the history books said that he "has less sex and prudence, and when he is good, he does not dare to be arrogant, so the Son of Heaven will always be in charge, and the scholar is not evil" Sure enough, even if he is now an internal servant and worships the three ranks, he is still not arrogant and impatient, and he is cautious, which is indeed worth learning a thing or two.

The two traveled all the way north into the Taiji Palace, and Pei Min took down the Qin Emperor Sword and handed it to Gao Lishi.

Colliers smiled and reached out to take it, calling a passing eunuch to put away the sword.

To the corridor of Taiji Palace, there was a eunuch walking in front of him, and suddenly a burly man walked quickly from the corner, and the two almost collided together.

was frightened, but he heard the burly man scolding angrily: "The castration that doesn't have long eyes, the eyeballs are born to the door of the brain." ”

Gao Lishi's face is a little ugly, generally speaking, eunuchs due to physical incompleteness, will lead to psychological incompleteness, extreme inferiority, distortion and deformity, and insidious and vicious hearts. Gao Lishi is a rare eunuch with a good character, but when he hears the word "eunuch", he will be a little angry in his heart after all.

Of course, Pei Min knew the burly man, just yesterday, they had a fight and fought side by side: it was Wang Mao Zhong, the general of Longwu, and now it is Mao Zhong, the general of Zuo Wuwei, the prince of Huo Guo.

Compared with yesterday, Wang Maozhong was much more arrogant, glaring angrily, and even had the intention of doing something.

"General Wang, who made you angry? I heard you shouting from afar......" Pei Min greeted in a loud voice.

Wang Maozhong saw that it was Pei Min, thinking about his current identity, and said with a smile: "It turned out to be Pei Shi Yushi, and you also asked His Majesty to invite him?" I'm a little ahead of you......" His tone was a little shy, as if it was a great honor to be summoned by Li Longji one step ahead of him, and said to the eunuch in front of him, his face changed: "Get out of the way, don't get in the way!" ”

The little eunuch was so frightened that he hurried around.

Pei Min said: "You are also a dignified general, what do you have to worry about with the temple people?" ”

Wang Maozhong pursed his lips: "If you are eunuch, you owe discipline...... Don't talk about it. Your Majesty has a task for me, I have the best Zhongshan winter brew in my house, and I have time to come to my house to drink! ”

"Good!" Pei Min responded.

Wang Maozhong hurriedly left, and he didn't even look at Gao Lishi.

Pei Min shook his head, Wang Maozhong has such a temperament and a temper, and something will happen sooner or later.

Gao Lishi said: "Wang Maozhong is on duty in the palace as General Longwu, and he came faster. ”

Pei Min smiled: "Gao Nei thought that I would deal with him, this will come first and come later?" That's too much to underestimate me. ”

The two stopped talking and came all the way to the apse of Taiji Palace.

"I've seen Your Majesty!" After Pei Min was summoned, he walked into the inner hall, Li Longji bowed his head to the bookcase, was looking at the chapter, and when he heard Pei Min's audience, he raised his head: this Li Jiazaburo had swollen eyes, his eyes were full of bloodshots, but his spirit was extremely excited.

"Sit!" Li Longji pointed to the mat on the side and said, "I wanted to find an elegant place, and you and I would have a good chat." It's just that I'm in power at the beginning, and I haven't started many things yet, so I really can't spare time. I can only wait for everything to settle down and find another time. Jingyuan, do you know my intention in promoting you to the rank of servant? ”

Pei Min shook his head, this is also what he is curious about, logically speaking, he is in the Ministry of War, he can be promoted to the position of the Ministry of War, specially promoted him to serve the Imperial History, and let him go to the Imperial History Observatory, which is really a bit confusing to him, so he can only say: "The minister is dull, it is better for Your Majesty to be far-sighted and unpredictable." ”

Li Longji did not answer directly, but asked another question: "In order to commemorate my first assumption of power, I decided to change the name of the era to 'Kaiyuan', and announced it in the near future. Do you know what the significance of Kaiyuan is? ”

"Kaiyuan, there is the meaning of starting a new era, there is also the beginning, the meaning of the founding of the country, there is the atmosphere of opening the world, Your Majesty to Kaiyuan as the name of the year, presumably with great ambitions, the intention to do something big." Pei Min replied almost without thinking, he is also a civil and military talent, and the meaning of this kind of word is not a problem at all.

"Yes!" Li Longji clenched his fist excitedly, got up and said: "From the time of my Tang Dynasty to Taizong, I have cultivated Wenzhi internally and expanded my territory externally, especially during the Gaozong period, the territory of my Tang Dynasty is wide, far ahead of the Qin and Han dynasties, and the countries of the previous dynasties are far from comparable. It's a pity that everything is like the morning dew of lightning, and I have the heart to regain the style of my ancestors, and then create the majesty of Taizong and Gaozong. ”

Pei Min's eyes were a little moved, which is why he chose Li Longji: Li Longji's eyes are farther and belong to the radical hawks, while Princess Taiping attaches great importance to the stability of her power and belongs to the conservative doves.

"Your Majesty has this ambition, Pei Min is willing to follow the example of the sages to open up territory for Your Majesty." Pei Min's eyes are firm, he entered the court as an official, one is his mother's will, glorifying his ancestors, and the other is that he can spell out a future, and he doesn't want to do nothing to do this life. If it is within the scope of his ability, he can make Datang go further, and there will be no more Liaojin Mongolia wreaking havoc in the world in the future, which is the most perfect plan in his heart.

Li Longji looked at Pei Min with burning eyes, and said with a bow: "I can understand the ambition in your heart!" From your answer to the imperial examination, I can see it! He took out a manuscript from the desk and said: "This is your answer sheet for the imperial examination, and every word in the answer sheet is full of changes and innovations, which shows that you are the same as me, and you are extremely dissatisfied with this rotten system and full of worries about the future of Datang." Only change, only innovation, can open up a new atmosphere. I can't do such a big thing alone, and I need your help. ”

Pei Min thought about his position and had a vague understanding of Li Longji's intentions.

Li Longji said: "Now that there are too many people in my Tang Dynasty, I have decided to streamline the organization, reduce redundant officials, and eliminate many useless officials since the Empress Wu, especially the group of people who bought and sold officials in Empress Wei and Princess Anle. Only useful and talented people are left, so that the ability of officials can be exercised, and it can also save state expenditures, and the money saved will be used for military affairs. ”

Pei Min said with a smile: "We can also establish a strict official evaluation system and strengthen the management of local officials, so as to avoid the appearance of corrupt officials and corrupt officials." On the one hand, it does not increase the burden on the people, and on the other hand, it can also increase the country's tax revenue. ”

Li Longji nodded and said, "That's the truth, what else do you want to add?" ”

Pei Min thought for a while and said: "Improving the difficulty of the imperial examination, reducing the number of people who enter the Shike and the first, avoiding the appearance of redundant officials, can also improve the quality of officials' talents." ”

Li Longji praised: "Yes, I also think that it is more appropriate to take the imperial examination than to recommend." In particular, after you proposed the anonymity system, the fairness of the imperial examination has been improved, and we can select truly talented people to serve the country. ”

"So Your Majesty wants me to supervise the hundred officials with the power of imperial history, so as to find out the moths that plague the country?" Pei Min understood Li Longji's intentions.

Li Longji bowed his head and said: "Yes, after some time, I will gradually strengthen the authority of the Imperial Historical Tower, and I will allocate enough funds to you to expand your strength." You already have the power to supervise hundreds of officials, and I will give you the right to inspect the world from time to time, and I don't want to catch all the corrupt officials in the world. There is a certain danger in this position, but I think with your martial arts and swordsmanship, this danger should not be able to help you. ”

Pei Min smiled and said: "Your Majesty, rest assured, the most hated by the minister is the corrupt officials who disregard people's lives, and they will be arrested one by one when they are found." ”

Li Longji nodded with satisfaction and said, "I can hold the power, and Jingyuan's swordsmanship is indispensable!" I wrote a handwritten picture for you! As he spoke, he took out a notebook from the desk and handed it to Colliers on the side.

Gao Lishi took it with both hands and gave the notebook to Pei Min.

Pei Min opened the copybook and looked at it, four words:

"Unparalleled in the world"!
