Chapter 97: Promotion
Li Yuan walked in front.
Li Shimin followed closely, and Cui Shaoqing followed him.
At this time, Li Shimin admired Cui Shaoqing very much.
If before, he was just curious about Cui Shaoqing, but now, he appreciates it very much.
What he couldn't do by himself, Cui Shaoqing came, and he quickly got it done, this Cui Shaoqing is indeed a capable person.
Here in the hall, the ministers have been waiting for a long time, and many people are actually a little impatient in their hearts, but the people they have to wait for are the Emperor and the Son of Heaven, so even if they are impatient, they dare not show the slightest.
And while everyone was waiting like this, Li Yuan and Li Shimin walked over, and after the ministers saw them, they hurriedly saluted.
Li Yuan just glanced at the ministers, then waved his hand and said, "It's not early, let's eat." ”
A lot of the process of the birthday banquet was saved by his words.
Originally, the ministers all wanted to give gifts, but now, they can only keep the gifts and leave after eating.
Everyone was also a little hungry, so they didn't feel anything about Li Yuan's behavior.
Soon, the meals were served one after another.
These dishes, there are a few dishes made by the chef on the first floor of the world, these dishes taste much better than other dishes, Li Yuan was a little shocked when he ate these dishes.
"These meals are good, they were made by that imperial chef, why haven't I eaten them before?"
Li Shimin said: "Emperor Taishang, it was made by Cui Shaoqing's cook on the first floor of the world, if you like it, I will let them make it for you every day." ”
"Cui Shaoqing's cook? Does this Cui Shaoqing still have this ability? Yes, yes, this man is a great talent, you must not miss him. ”
"Yes, what the Emperor said is very true."
The father and son sat close together, and the conversation between the two was not heard by the others, and after saying this, they continued to eat.
There were a lot of meals, but the ones made by the chef on the first floor of the world were the first to be eaten, and as for some other meals, there were a lot left.
After eating like this, the birthday banquet is over.
Li Yuan didn't stay here for long, and went directly to his palace.
A number of other officials also left one after another.
Li Shimin is somewhat satisfied here.
For him, as long as Li Yuan attended today's birthday banquet, as for the process of the birthday banquet, he didn't care very much, in fact, Li Yuan's participation in the birthday banquet was enough to explain everything, didn't it?
The ministers left, but the eldest grandson Wuji was called to the imperial study.
"Auxiliary, this Cui Shaoqing has seen it, he is indeed a talent, I am ready to reuse him, do you think it is more appropriate for him to go there as an official?"
What happened in the palace, the eldest grandson Wuji already knew a little about it.
He thought for a moment and said: "Shengshang, what is this Cui Shaoqing's talent, it's really hard to say, if you want to say the most suitable place for him, the minister thinks it's still Sinong Temple, didn't the Shengshang let him promote vegetable greenhouses, then it is most appropriate to put him in Sinong Temple." ”
Sinong Temple is in charge of grain storage, warehouse management and the supply of rice to the officials of the Beijing Dynasty, in addition, it also includes encouraging farming, studying some agricultural affairs, etc., although the status of Sinong Temple is not very high, but for the Tang Dynasty, it is very important, and it is not lacking at all.
After Li Shimin listened to the words of the eldest grandson Wuji, he felt that Cui Shaoqing was a bit overkill in Sinong Temple, and he originally wanted Cui Shaoqing to participate in national affairs.
But if you think about it carefully, these things that Cui Shaoqing made may only be related to state affairs before.
Although he can see his ability, it is only one thing after all.
In comparison, Sinong Temple seems to be very suitable for Cui Shaoqing, whether it is the vegetable greenhouse he makes, or the refining of fine salt, it is inseparable from Sinong Temple.
After thinking about it, Li Shimin nodded and said, "Then how about letting him go to Sinong Temple to be a Shaoqing?" ”
The official of Sinong Temple, the highest is Qing, and below Qing is Shaoqing, Li Shimin thinks it's good to let Cui Shaoqing be Shaoqing, after all, he has such a ability.
However, after hearing this, the eldest grandson Wuji's expression was slightly condensed, Sinong Temple Shaoqing, that is the fourth grade control, Cui Shaoqing was promoted from an eighth-grade petty official to a fourth-grade at once, is this a little too fast?
"Shengshang, isn't it a bit high, then Cui Shaoqing has the ability, he can't ascend to the sky in one step, the minister thinks that it is already very good to give him a six-grade Sinong Temple, after all, he is young, and he has no foundation in Sinong Temple, and he has made it to such a high position all of a sudden, I am afraid it will be difficult to convince the public."
Li Shimin shook his head: "What does it matter if you are young?" As long as you have the ability, I think this Cui Shaoqing can do a good job in Sinong Temple Shaoqing, didn't we all come from the young back then? ”
"Holy Lord, this is different......
The eldest grandson Wuji wanted to say something more, but was stopped by Li Shimin with a wave of his hand.
"So be it."
The eldest grandson Wuji was speechless, this Li Shimin has already decided, what else is he looking for himself?
Anyway, he felt that if Cui Shaoqing really went to Sinong Temple to be Shaoqing, he was afraid that he would encounter a lot of trouble, and when the time came, he would see how Cui Shaoqing solved these problems.
Just when the two of them had nothing to say, a palace man suddenly ran over in a hurry.
"Shengshang, something happened, something happened, a spy from the Liang Kingdom sneaked into the palace while we were celebrating the birthday of Emperor Taishang and took Princess Changle ...... He was taken captive, and now he has escaped from the palace, because of Princess Changle as a hostage, our guards dare not get too close, but just chase after him. ”
When the news came, Li Shimin suddenly felt a little unstable.
This Princess Changle is the first daughter he had with Queen Changsun, she is only six years old this year, she is very well-behaved on weekdays, he is very fond of Princess Changle, and he can't like it.
But he didn't expect that the spies of the Liang Kingdom would be so rampant and dare to kidnap his daughter in the palace.
"Damn, damn, Liang Guo is looking for death, he is looking for death......"
Li Shimin was particularly angry, his whole person seemed to be murderous, and he was a little worried and nervous.
The eldest grandson Wuji was also nervous, but he still hurriedly said: "Don't worry, the saint doesn't have to worry, I heard that the food of the Liang Kingdom has begun to be short now, and their life is very difficult, this spy is so desperate to do this kind of thing, maybe he just wants to threaten our Tang Dynasty and leave a way for them to live in the Liang Kingdom, he should not do anything to Princess Changle, Princess Changle is safe for the time being." ”
Li Shimin pondered for a moment and said, "Who is the one who led the troops to chase out?" ”
"Sanpin Guard Zhang Yi."
"Tell him to bring the princess back safely, or he will come to see him."
