Early in the morning of the second day, outside the city of Linyang Palace

Many courtiers were carried over by an official sedan chair in twos and threes. Continuing the habit of having breakfast outside the palace gate. In the distance on the street, the sound of horses' hooves came first. Tang Lanji led Yu Feiying and Zhao Li and some guards in royal clothes, accompanied by several horses. Several people came to the square at the gate of the palace, turned over and dismounted, and walked towards the palace gate. The ministers on both sides of the palace gate hurriedly got up and saluted, and some people who did not know Tang Shuji's identity also got up and saluted under the reminder of the ministers on the left and right: "I have seen the prince." Tang Ziji smiled and waved his hand, "No need to be polite." The three of them gradually walked to the front, and the people behind them began to whisper, "Today, the second prince is also going to enter the court." "It should be instructed by His Majesty, otherwise the second prince will generally not enter the court." "Looks like there's something big going on today." , Zhao Xiangguo, who was at the front, and several Shangshu lords also saluted when they saw Tang Shuji coming. Signaling no, Tang Lanji stood in front and looked at the palace gate.

Zhao Gengzhi, Zhao Xiangguo, and those people came over and said to Tang Jiji: "Lord Wang, how do you feel about entering the court for the first time today?" Tang Cheng laughed and said, "It's always earlier than these days." "Hahaha, that's how it was in the early dynasties. I'm used to it. It's just the first time for the prince, and he feels early. "Yes, I remember last time, last year was when I entered the court to thank you, I'm afraid it was earlier than this hour, it's too troublesome." "The DPRK and China are not as good as the military, and there are many rules."

Originally, Zhao Xiangguo still wanted to chat with Tang Xiangji for a while. However, Tang Lanji had already turned his head and said something to Zhao Li behind him. Zhao Xiangguo was a little overwhelmed for a while. Several Shangshu adults on the side saw that the prince and Zhao Xiangguo were chatting happily, and they were about to come over, but they also stopped when they saw this scene, and at this time, "The prince has been in the army for several years, but he doesn't know much about the people in the court." I will introduce them one by one for the prince. Seeing these people coming over, Zhao Li also whispered to Tang Liji, "The one close to us is the secretary of the ministry, Lord He Zhonghe." This Lord He can be regarded as a genius, and he never forgets everything. The information of officials above the county level in the whole country is contained in his head. His Majesty has repeatedly praised it as a repository. Look at this Lord He again, the figure is not tall, but this figure is a little bloated and excessive, even this customized court dress is too small by his body, this person's face plate is not small, and the facial features are too small, as if this person's face is like a large plate, there are several objects in the middle of the plate, and the rest are blank, with a smile on his face, I always feel that this person is like the shopkeeper of a rice shop." The last time the prince entered the knighthood, he went to the mansion to celebrate, but at that time, I was afraid that the prince would not be able to recognize it carefully. Zhao Li whispered to Tang Li and said with a smile.

"The one next to Lord He is the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, Li Chengrong. This person's ability is mediocre among the six books. But the victory lies in being upright and serious. "Look at this Li Chengrong again, Master Li, people have the same temperament, their bodies stand straight, and their national characters face is even more upright. Even if you don't wear that official uniform, you still have some momentum when you stand among ordinary people. "Next to it is the book of the Criminal Department, Ji Liang. Ji Guifei's father, the grandfather of the third prince. You know this better than I do. Zhao Li said again, Tang Liji nodded After all, he is a relative of the emperor, this person was born in this dynasty because of his daughter and father, although he borrowed the power of these two, but he still has some ability, and now the Ji family can become the most powerful family after the three clans, and his role in it is undoubted. Looking at this person, he has never suffered a little in his life, he is very well maintained, he is over the age but he still has a ruddy complexion, full of black hair, and occasionally talks and laughs, and his voice is like thunder.

"After Ji Shangshu is the Ministry of Rites, Zhao Zhuxian. You know better. The scholarly temperament with a full face was incompatible with those adults. This person is not good at others, but he is familiar with the Four Books and the Five Classics, and he is even more familiar with the etiquette system, so it is reasonable for His Majesty to let him be the secretary of the Ministry of Rites. Zhao Li said softly, and Tang Liji secretly said in his heart: "Clearly, the grandfather of the eldest prince, the prince of Xinguo, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and the current patriarch of the Zhao family, all of them are scary. It's a pity that this person is too addicted to books and is not interested in the struggle between the DPRK and China, if it weren't for Zhao Xiangguo still alive and the eldest prince still gaining power, it is estimated that the Zhao family will decline immediately.

"The book of the military department, Yang Chen. In this estimation, I have dealt with you the longest and the most. Zhao Li looked at the person next to Zhao Zhuxian and said. yes, familiar people. Tang Chengji looked at Yang Chen, and a cold light inadvertently flashed in his eyes. Yang Chen, the secretary of the military department, a peculiar person, since he became the secretary of the military department, because of all kinds of things approved from him, will eventually be transformed into a killing, he is afraid that he will go to hell after death, so he began to believe in Buddhism, in order to protect himself from falling into hell. Looking at it now, there is still a string of rosaries on his wrist. Looking at the person's face, the face is gloomy, the stature is medium, and he often coughs. Tang Liji clearly remembered that when the Zhenbei camp was first built, only the middle camp in the north of the town, and the second camp in the east and west of the north of the town were expanded later. In that year, there were only 5,000 soldiers and horses in the Zhenbei Battalion, and it was not like now, when it was unable to defend the entire northern line, and could only defend two border cities, and this person transferred the defense in the name of the military department and forcibly let the Zhenbei Battalion guard the three cities, and the result was that one city was finally defeated due to insufficient manpower, and the 1,000 soldiers were all brothers who shared weal and woe with him. He was furious, so he took a thousand iron horsemen to return to Linyang City to ask for justice from the military department, on the bank of the Lingshui River, he was stopped by Tian Xiqi and Liao Shengyuan, and his eldest brother Tang Qingqing, persuaded to return to the northern line, he was sixteen years old that year. It's a pity that this incident has not been gradually forgotten by Tang Lanji because of the passage of time, just because there are comrades-in-arms he values the most. Later, all kinds of military affairs with this person, Tang Lanji handed over to others to do, and the two have gotten along so far, but they have nothing to do with each other. Now goodbye, it's the court to work together, and it's really unclear what the future will be.

"The last one is the head of the household, Liang Qi, you should also know better." , Zhao Li introduced. "The allocation of grain and grass and the distribution of military salaries can be regarded as some intersections." Tang said. This Lord Liang Qiliang is a person who is quite appreciated in Tang Qiji's heart, this person has been poor since he was a child, but he is good at studying, and later served in a county government, and later was appreciated by the first emperor during his eastern tour, and was promoted to this position step by step by relying on his talents. is neither humble nor arrogant, and there is no trace of official authority when getting along with others, and he is serious in his work. Looking at this person again, or he was hungry and cold when he was a child, so his body is so thin now, and his skin is also a little dark, among these pampered people, it looks a little different, but this person is not the slightest abnormal, and there is still a gentle smile on his face.

"The rest of the ministers, after the prince deals with them in the court, will talk to the prince one by one." Zhao Li said on the side. Tang Zhiji also nodded. With the sound of the palace door opening, all the ministers looked at Tang Lanji and let him go first. Tang Lanji did not shirk, and the ministers also followed.
