Chapter 687: You can also be rehired after retirement

It doesn't matter which dynasty or generation it is, as long as it is the queen of the peaceful and prosperous era, it is not trivial. ยง

ยง [Full text reading] The Son of Heaven can have countless concubines, but the queen can only have one, and the heir born to this one is the son-in-law. The reason why Empress Wu was able to sit so firmly on the queen's throne was of course Li Zhi's unreserved favor and trust, and the second was that she gave birth to four sons in 66. And in a certain period of history known to Li Xian, Empress Wu did squeeze the surplus value of his four sons to the ground.

Li Hong has been on the throne for the past few years, and the harem has not moved, if it weren't for the fact that Emperor Li had canonized the prince at the same time before abdicating, the discussion of the government and the opposition was enough to make the emperor dizzy, especially the Tai Doctor Department, who was almost drowned by the spittle star. The former hero has now almost become synonymous with rice buckets.

But the group of people in the Imperial Doctor's Department are really aggrieved, this is clearly the emperor's physical problem, what can they do?

Therefore, the news that the queen is pregnant today is like a long drought, which makes the Tai Medical Department happy, and many courtiers are happy. However, there are also worries. This prince has been established, if the queen has another son-in-law, what should this matter be? Before they could figure out why, Li Xian put the news out when he was laughing and talking.

If the queen gives birth to a son-in-law, this is the next prince, do you still need to think about this kind of thing?

Under such a voice, the other worries temporarily dissipated, and the officials' attention turned to another issue closely related to them - yes, the retirement of Shangguan Yi and Hao Chujun.

Spring goes to autumn, and in the blink of an eye, Shangguan Yi has been the prime minister for more than ten years. At the beginning, this one was famous in the literary world for his famous rhetoric and gorgeous rhetoric, coupled with his middle-aged demeanor, he was the object of praise of the times, and was even known as a fairy. But no matter how good the demeanor is, it can't help the passage of time, although the old Shangguan is not shrinking now, but the color of wind and frost is cherished and nurtured, and he can't hide it. It can be said that the matter of working hard to be the prime minister is not false at all. It can be said that the immortal has become a mortal.

When Shangguan Yi and Hao Chujun's Zhishi report was confirmed. Chang'an stayed behind Liu Ren's track, and the report also arrived in Luoyang. However, this time, Li Xian did not hesitate to refute it. Now that there is a shortage of manpower, old man Liu, what are you doing to make a fuss? The emperor's family and the main civil and military ministers are all in Luoyang, and you are not allowed to toss in Chang'an. What to do retirement!

The latter report was refuted. After a refreshing free afternoon, Li Xian set up a family banquet at home, specially invited Shangguan Yi and Hao Chujundao, in order to have a good friendship for many years, and to say goodbye to the two of them. When he got such an invitation, Shangguan Yi couldn't help but blow his beard and stare at home - although he was on leave, he still planned to settle in Luoyang, what else!

Even if he retires, he still has to participate in the court. It's called retirement and not forgetting state affairs! Having said that, Shangguan Yi still came to visit with an invitation, but it was a coincidence that he had just stepped into the door when he heard the sound of a car wheeling, and when he looked back, Hao Chujun had also arrived. Two old men with similar positions and good personal relations, you looked at me for a while, and at the same time, he laughed.

There is a way that Li Xian often talks about the drunkard, and the intention is not to drink, and the two of them came here in a hurry. Where is it just for drinking? If you don't squeeze out the words from that person's heart today, you will definitely not give up!

So the two men at the door saw the two retired prime ministers meet and laugh, and then stood there and muttered for a while, and then slapped each other. Behold the sight. Who doesn't know that these two people have a tacit understanding? At that moment, someone who knew something quietly slipped in to report to Li Xian.

"There's no good banquet, I'm calculating the two of them in this banquet place, why don't the two of them have any ideas?" Li Xian squeezed his eyes at Li Jingye, who was accompanying him next to him, and smiled on his face: "If it weren't for the idea of not beating these two old men." I and dedication, you can't get tired and lie down? Though they are old. This heart may not be old enough to come in handy! โ€

For Li Xian's argument. Li Jingye agrees. Donggong Zhan Shi was originally a sixty-year-old minister, but he left his post due to a serious illness some time ago, and now he is promoted to Zhan Shi, and he is getting busier and busier so that his feet don't touch the ground. When he was young, he also thought about going out and overshadowing his grandfather, but now he feels that his grandfather was the most carefree back then. Isn't it a very comfortable life to enjoy the honor of being at home in the name of the first minister of the Tang Dynasty?

So for Li Xian's idea of letting him study in the political hall, he almost didn't think about it, and he rejected it outright. Just kidding, he doesn't want to go out and be a target, didn't he look at his young high-ranking officials, has it made many people mutter?

The guests arrived quickly, and both the host and the guest were familiar people who couldn't be more familiar, so there was less politeness to meet each other. Shangguan Yi and Hao Chujun were no longer unfamiliar with the name of His Royal Highness, but affectionately changed their name to Liulang, as for Li Xian himself, the same old Shangguan Hao, and the old man called Li Jingye indiscriminately, and simply pretended to be dumb on the side.

Let's see what you three can do!

After exchanging glasses with each other, staggering a urn of wine, everyone was naturally drunk, and they spoke with less scruples. Shangguan Yi took the opportunity to pull Li Xiandi's sleeve and said viciously: "Liulang, when will you return my granddaughter to me?" I have three grandchildren in Shangguanyi, but it's just such a granddaughter! She was able to write chapters at a young age, why didn't I teach her! โ€

Thinking of this, Shangguan Yi, who was well-known in the literary world back then, couldn't help beating his chest. None of the three grandchildren he worked so hard to train were reading materials, but this granddaughter who was not around became a talent, which is really ironic! And for some faint rumors that ran to his ears, he felt even more worried.

He is not Xu Jingzong's miser who only knows that his son and daughter as bargaining chips, he has no intention of stuffing his only granddaughter into Li Xian's backyard!

"If you dare to beat my little Wan'er's idea, our friendship for so many years will be nullified, and even if I die and become a ghost, I won't let you go!"

Regarding the fierce and vicious side of the old Shangguan, Li Xian was suddenly startled, and saw Hao Chujun next to him burrowing under the table for a long time by bending down to pick up the chopsticks, and his shoulders were shaking there, how could he not know that this old man was snickering? At that moment, he glanced at Shangguan Yi vigorously, and said angrily: "One day as a teacher, a father for life, Wan'er is my apprentice, even if I am a bastard, I will not do anything like an old cow eating tender grass!" โ€

"That's what you said!"

got such a promise, Shangguan Yi was in a good mood, and then he regained the calmness that a prime minister should have, and he had to use excuses to tease Hao Chujun, who had just seen a joke, - a pair of grandchildren are living treasures, where is it stronger than him Shangguanyi?

It was easy to wait for the two sides to quarrel to end, and Li Xian cautiously informed the two retired old prime ministers that it was Zhongshu Ling, Pei Yan took over, and Li Jingxuan took over as the servant, as for the location of this political hall, it will be temporarily moved out of the province and placed in Shangshu Province. Such an unprecedented proposal made Shangguan Yi and Hao Chujun both stunned.

Is this a major reform?

Hao Chu Junqiang pressed the annoyance in his heart, pulled his beard and asked, "The government hall is placed under the door, and the province is the old rule, what do you want to do if you move well?" And it is not to migrate to Zhongshu Province, but to put it in Shangshu Province! And when the old Shangguan goes to the political hall, who is the main one? โ€

This is also the question Shangguan Yi wants to ask. Seeing Li Xian's wry smile on his face, he immediately realized that this was Empress Wu's idea, and he was a little disapproving-this Li Zhi and Empress Wu are a lot of trouble, the official names they have used since the founding of the country, the two couples have changed and changed, and now they have finally changed it again. Now it's better not to toss the official name and change the political hall.

"The queen mother means that since I, the prince, is now in charge of the council, then this prime minister was originally the acquiescence of the court, and now there is no one to worry about."

Upon hearing this, Shangguan Yi's original nervousness disappeared without a trace, and then he laughed out loud, and even Hao Chujun nodded happily again and again. This is good, this is a good political hall, there are endless things to do every day, look at Li Xian, you can still be as leisurely as before, and you can still be the shopkeeper!

Li Xian didn't know what thoughts were turning in the hearts of these two people, so he quickly patted his chest and made a guarantee, and then asked the two of them to recommend a few reliable talents in the name of his current shortage of manpower. Because they were in a good mood, Shangguan Yi and Hao Chujun naturally would not refuse, so they had to pour out all the candidates they liked, and Li Jingye next to them couldn't help but remember to be in a hurry.

This is just one of the purposes of Li Xian's banquet today, and then he inevitably smiled and proposed that the two prime ministers retired, since they can also go to the court, it is better to wave the remaining heat, and the East Palace officials on their bodies should not be dismissed, and if there is nothing to do, they can also come to sit and guide everyone's work.

His good attitude of taking the initiative to ask for supervision made Shangguan Yi and Hao Chujun extremely satisfied, neither of them was the kind of person who could stay idle, and he agreed impassionedly at the moment, who let one of them be the younger brother, the other the younger brother, and the other the younger brother's guest?

This meal was eaten all afternoon, and when he personally sent the two away, Li Xian turned around and made a triumphant gesture towards Li Jingye. Taishi? Guest? This Donggong is worried about the people who have not done big things, since the old Shangguan and the old man Hao have agreed to his re-employment after retirement, let's give him a good time!

"Dedication, Ming'er and Xiao Yao said, isn't that Wei Yuanzhong studying government affairs in the two provinces under the Zhongshu Gate, let him take Song Yi to go in the future, and he can be promoted after he comes back!"

For Li Xian's irresponsible behavior, Li Jingye learned a lot, so he had to agree at the moment. The unlucky person is not him, Yao Yuanzhi Song, you two just accept your fate!
