Chapter 61: The revenge of the eldest grandson Wuji
"Ma Zhou's recital is reasonable and reasonable, but it is really child's play to let a state prince suddenly become a prime minister and a minister." Xiao Yu had already finished reading Ma Zhou's recital, and gently raised it up and down with two fingers, while saying slowly.
The eldest grandson Wuji was shocked when he heard this, but his gloomy personality did not show it, he just looked at Ma Zhou and Zhu Suiliang lightly.
Ma Zhou didn't cover it, and after listening to Xiao Yu's words, he just smiled faintly and said: "When the Southern Dynasty, 'if you get on the car, it is a book, and if you are a secretary, you will be a secretary', and the son of your family wants to be the prime minister for three years, but what about the government?"
When Xiao Yu heard this, his face immediately turned red with anger for a long time before he angrily reprimanded: "Villain Centaur Zhou! ”
Ma Zhou ignored him, Li Shimin couldn't look at it and said: "Song Guogong is angry, what did King Bin say and how did he make Song Guogong angry like this." ”
"Your Majesty, what the minister said was that in the Southern Dynasty, the imperial court specially set up official positions for the sons of the major scholars, so that the scholars would be superior to others when they came out, and the secretary Lang and the author Lang were specially set up for them. However, because there were many noble sons in the Southern Dynasty, the number of these two official positions was limited, and everyone could only sit in these two official positions for more than ten days before they had to be promoted to other places, and the official positions were given to the people behind.
Therefore, these elected officials just took a carriage to the yamen every day, and asked their subordinates to shout that they were on duty and drove him. ”
Li Shimin came to ask with interest: "What do you say about 'what is the body is a secretary'?"
"'What is in the body is the secretary' means that the secretary Lang was originally going to write an edict for the emperor, as long as this person will ask a sentence when he writes a letter, he can be a secretary."
"Haha, I only knew that the Southern Dynasty court was corrupted and villains were in charge, and I didn't want to be so childish in such a big event as selecting talents and appointing talents, and the Southern Dynasty would not be able to destroy the heavens!" Li Shimin sighed with a smile.
"The Southern Dynasties are all small courts, which is not enough to rely on, and my Tang Dynasty Shangwu has always been in and out of the phase, and I must not make the small officials suddenly ascend to the stage and cause the court to lose." Hou Junji Da Lala Tunnel.
Li Shimin immediately became alert when he heard this, the people behind Yan Liren had not yet been tried, and Zhang Liang said that Hou Junji was going to rebel before he left Beijing, and now Hou Junji is still thinking about the phase.
Li Shimin didn't answer his words after hearing this, and turned to the eldest grandson Wuji: "What do you think of the auxiliary machine?"
The eldest grandson Wuji scolded his mother in his heart, as long as you give an order to let me take over the phase, won't there be so much controversy?
However, the eldest grandson Wuji also knew that this was not the time to be angry with Li Shimin, so he thought about it and smiled faintly: "I'm afraid this is His Royal Highness the Prince's idea again, right?"
"Hmph" Li Shimin snorted coldly and didn't speak, he wanted to get angry when he heard Li Chengqian now.
Zhu Suiliang is so embarrassed, he discussed with Ma Zhou not to mention Li Chengqian for the time being, and now he is exposed by the eldest grandson Wuji, not to mention that it is the crime of bullying the king.
"The minister did hear His Royal Highness the Crown Prince mention it yesterday and came back to tell King Bin, and King Bin also thought that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had excellent knowledge and should do this, so he wrote to His Majesty with the minister." Zhu Suiliang had to tell the truth.
"Well, I understand the public heart of the two Qing families." Li Shimin set the tone, and this matter can be regarded as over.
"Since this proposal was proposed by His Royal Highness the Prince, why not invite His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to discuss it together?" Cen Wenwen seems to be speaking for Li Chengqian, but in fact he deliberately provokes Li Shimin's unhappiness.
"If he's not in good health, he won't use it." Li Shimin directly found a reason for Li Chengqian, and then Li Shimin glanced at a few people who were eager to try and continued: "Song Guogong is reasonable, Cheng Mingzhen and the assassination of the history are indeed inappropriate, but the communication between the upper and lower levels is also the temperament that the imperial court should have, so it is necessary to select some more people from the magistrates."
What I want to set now is the law of thousands of generations after my Tang Dynasty, and I also need to be cautious and cautious before the left servant of Shangshu is elected, the affairs of Shangshu Province will have to be more concerned by Lao Shen Guogong. ”
Li Shimin's attitude is very clear, you can use Li Chengqian's suggestions, but you can't use the people recommended by you Li Chengqian.
"Your Majesty, Cheng Mingzhen has an outstanding reputation in governing local politics, and he is very familiar with military affairs and knows the situation in Goguryeo very well, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince thinks that His Majesty will have something to do with such a talent in the Goguryeo court, so he ordered the ministers to recommend him." Zhu Suiliang hurriedly said, but he made a guarantee in front of Li Chengqian.
I heard that Li Shimin was really interested in fighting Goguryeo, and looked at everyone: "Have you ever heard of this Cheng Mingzhen?"
"I'm ashamed that such a talented minister has never heard of it." The eldest grandson Wuji pretended to be ashamed.
"The minister has never heard of this person!" Hou Junji said loudly.
Li Shimin looked at a few Wenchen again, and saw that they were also at a loss, obviously they hadn't heard of Cheng Mingzhen, and his face gradually showed a look of disappointment, it seemed that Cheng Mingzhen had somehow gone through the prince's door, and he was not a person with real talent and learning.
"Chen has heard of this person, Liu Heimin was killed by Cheng Mingzhen." It was Li Shiji who spoke.
"What!" Li Shimin was shocked, Liu Heimin had fought against Li Shimin, Li Shimin didn't defeat Liu Heimin, what a powerful character, and no one knew about the person who killed Liu Heimin. "Mao Gong, you go on."
"Cheng Mingzhen returned to Tang from Dou Jiande in the fourth year of Wude, and Gaozu made him the commander of Yongning County.
Cheng Mingzhen once attacked Ye County at night, capturing more than 1,000 people, and later saw that dozens of women were nursing babies among the captives, so Cheng Mingzhen sent them home. ”
Li Shimin nodded after hearing this and said, "But it is also benevolent and righteous." ”
When Li Shiji heard this, he continued: "In the fifth year of Wude, His Majesty's troops lived in Zha Laoshui and Liu Heimin, and Cheng Mingzhen commanded more than 1,000 soldiers to capture Hebei, Bei, Cang and other prefectures, blocked Liu Heimin's grain road, and burned Liu Heimin's vehicles and ships transporting grain.
When Liu Heimin heard this, he was so angry that he put his old mother's wife to death. ”
"I remembered that later the Tang Army captured Liu Heimin alive, and Cheng Mingzhen used Liu Heimin's head to commemorate his mother, and he is indeed a capable man who can write and martial arts." Li Shimin understood that Cheng Mingzhen was beaten into Li Jiancheng's party, so no matter how good Cheng Mingzhen's official reputation was for more than ten years, it couldn't reach his ears.
Thinking of this, Li Shimin glanced at everyone in the palace and said, "Cheng Qian's suggestion is very good!" Cheng Mingzhen came to Chang'an to do a political matter first. ”
"Your Majesty!" The eldest grandson Wuji is still not dead.
"That's the decision for now." Li Shimin signaled that he didn't need to say much.
"Obey the order!" Master Yang came out to receive the order.
The eldest grandson Wuji saw that it was irretrievable, so he smiled and said: "The prince is becoming more and more capable, but the prince should study more, and now several masters in the East Palace are not looking down on Your Majesty, and you must choose a good teacher for the prince as soon as possible." ”
"Hmm!" Li Shimin nodded in deep approval.
"The minister sees that Song Guogong has always been strict, and he may be a strict teacher to supervise the prince's study, I don't know what Your Majesty thinks?" It's really thanks to the eldest grandson Wuji who came up with the idea of killing two birds with one stone so quickly, and letting Xiao Yu rub Li Chengqian, the two of them will inevitably dislike each other, and when it reaches Li Shimin's ears, both of them are very good, and Li Shimin will not think about using Xiao Yu as the prime minister.
Li Chengqian was stumped by Xiao Yu, and it was difficult for the party in the East Palace to do anything, what could Cheng Mingzhen do when he entered Chang'an City?
Shang Shu's left servant shot is still his eldest grandson Wuji.
Li Shimin was very moved when he heard this, looked at Xiao Yu and said, "I don't know what Song Guogong thinks?"
"If Your Majesty sends a minister to supervise His Royal Highness the Prince's reading, the ministers should strictly require His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to study!" Xiao Yu has also been idle for a long time, and as soon as he heard that there was a dispatch, he pounced up, and he didn't understand the treacherous plan of the eldest grandson Wuji.
"I'm afraid that His Royal Highness the Prince's temper is not in line with Song Guogong!" Ma Zhou hurriedly stopped.
"The prince is the prince of the country, and he should study hard, how can he act according to his temper in everything?" Xiao Yu has not yet taken office, and he has entered the role.
