Chapter 14 Gift-giving
"What? Does Xu Qing's family have any objections? Li Shimin's face immediately changed to a trace of displeasure.
"No, the minister will not live up to His Majesty's trust!" Xu Ziling hurriedly expressed his position.
"Well, the internal guard has just been set up, within the North Ya, I have already set up the internal guard, as for the vacancies in these other positions, you can slowly select them, and inform me if there is a suitable candidate!" Li Shimin said, "Since everyone is not opposed, then we will preliminarily implement this plan!" ”
After retiring from the dynasty, Li Shimin stopped Xu Ziling.
Xu Ziling knew that Li Shimin would never set up a Snapdragon internal guard for no reason, it must be for some purpose, as for what medicine Li Shimin sold in the gourd, Xu Ziling did not know.
"General Xu Lang, the personnel of the Snapdragon internal guard, you are selected from the soldiers you trained in the former Qin Palace. Now we will start sending people to the Turks, and I will know all the movements of the Turks! Li Shimin said, "Also, the prestige of the internal guard should be erected as soon as possible, and if necessary, one or two uninteresting officials will be sacrificed, and I will allow it!" ”
"Yes!" Xu Ziling replied respectfully, Li Shimin has changed, from a very good and scheming role of a vassal king to a Tang emperor!
Li Shimin's purpose in doing this is to further strengthen the imperial power, but Xu Ziling doesn't know that Li Shimin actually has another purpose for setting up Snapdragon internal guards, but the time is not yet ripe, and Li Shimin did not reveal it to Xu Ziling!
However, Xu Ziling also knew that although he was only a minor official from the sixth rank, the power in his hands was so great that Xu Ziling was faintly worried.
Li Shimin did this, as if he was setting himself up on the opposite side of everyone in the court, this wicked man, Li Shimin chose himself, every dynasty, the emperor will always come up with various ways to check and balance, but now when there is no dominance, Li Shimin has already thought of a balanced way.
If other emperors waited until the problem arose to solve it, then Li Shimin really responded to those four words - take precautions!
After bidding farewell to Li Shimin, Xu Ziling, under the leadership of the courtiers, slowly walked towards the Beiya Internal Guard, and Xu Ziling kept thinking about the problems he was facing along the way.
First, the Snapdragon internal guard is a new setting, not to mention the temporary shortage of personnel, Li Shimin still wants to let the internal guard establish prestige as soon as possible, then he must find someone to operate, but who to find?
Second, the nationwide intelligence network itself must be set up as soon as possible, otherwise it will be impossible to quickly and promptly grasp the movements of various localities and the Turks, but how can such a huge intelligence network be set up?
Third, Li Shimin let himself take on the responsibility of temporarily training the Beijing army, but now it is not clear who to train Xu Ziling!
Three problems seem to be difficult, but Xu Ziling knows that there will always be a way to solve them, and the key to the problem now is time! In half a year, it is really difficult for Xu Ziling to do all these things!
"General Xu Lang, this is it, please!" After the courtiers brought Xu Ziling to the location, they prepared to leave.
"Wait, thank you Gonggong Li." Xu Ziling unconsciously handed the courtiers a few pieces of gold.
"Ouch, Xu Lang will hey, you can't." Gonggong Li hurriedly shirked it, this is a favored minister of the dynasty with huge power in his hands, his little eunuch was still thinking about how to bribe others, but he didn't expect this young man to be so polite!
"Deserve it, there will be a place where you need your father-in-law in the future, don't your father-in-law look down on you?" After Xu Ziling finished speaking, Gonggong Li no longer shirked, "So, thank you!" ”
Now that Xu Ziling has officially entered the court, he will face a steady stream of intrigues! However, Xu Ziling can solve it! Xu Ziling had never leaked such a determined look on his face.
The internal guard office is very large, and after Xu Ziling entered the door, an old voice sounded in front of Xu Ziling, isn't this the newly appointed Xu Ziling Xu Sijie?
"Well, you are?" Xu Ziling looked at this fifty-year-old man carefully, although he had a smile on his face, Xu Ziling felt hypocrisy for no reason.
"Under the mark, the history of the head of the internal guard. Zheng Rende, I have seen Xu Langjiang. ”
"Oh, it turned out to be Zheng Changshi, what's the matter, it's just the two of us in the internal guard?" Xu Ziling looked at the empty internal guard and asked.
"For now, but the guards will be transferred soon!" Zheng Rende said.
Under the leadership of Zheng Rende, Xu Ziling came to his own office, which was empty, only a few cases of dwarf wood, such an office environment is really cold!
When Xu Ziling comes tomorrow, he must first tidy up his office space, and only in this way can he work comfortably.
During this period of time, Xu Ziling has been paying attention to improving himself, whether it is martial arts, or, now Xu Ziling's brush writing can already be seen by people, which has to be thanked to Zhang Lianu and Tao'er.
When he returned home, Xu Ziling saw a very terrifying scene, the front hall was crowded with people!
"What's this...... What's the situation? Xu Ziling stood at the door dumbfounded, and saw Yuan Tiangang not far away grinning and asking Zhou Ping'er to record something.
"Xianggong, you're back." Behind Tao'er, she led many of the housekeepers and maids to the front hall.
"What's going on?" Xu Ziling grabbed Zhang Lianu, picked up the cup in Zhang Liannu's hand and drank it in a big gulp.
"These are all officials from the Jingshi, and they are all here to give you gifts, and we were not going to receive them, but when the master heard that someone was giving gifts, he immediately called someone in, and now he is writing a gift list!" Zhang Liannu said.
Xu Ziling felt unconscious dizziness after listening to Zhang Liannu's words, and a picture seemed to have appeared in his mind, in a certain year and month, Xu Ziling was blatantly corrupt, and the amount was huge, and now he was cut in half in the market!
This old immortal didn't do anything, and as soon as he heard about corruption, Xu Ziling came to the front hall angrily.
After everyone saw Xu Ziling come back, they all showed a smile, "Xu Sijie is back......"
"Get everything back! Otherwise, the internal guard will go to your house tomorrow to sit down, just took office, and is worried that no one can open the knife! Xu Ziling said with an unkind face.
You people, giving gifts so openly, Your Majesty only preached the way of frugality not long ago, you are slapping Your Majesty in the face! You can't give gifts secretly, and you still form gangs?
After everyone heard Xu Ziling's words, they immediately hugged their things and left in a panic and hurry.
"Hey...... Don't take this, this ...... You're all fucking given away and taken away, shameless you! After a piece of jade in Yuan Tiangang's hand was taken away by a fat official, Yuan Tiangang couldn't help but say angrily.
In an instant, the originally lively Xu Mansion immediately became empty.
Yuan Tiangang's eyes were dull, and then he turned angry, and said to Xu Ziling: "You evil obstacle, people don't give me gifts for you, why are you like this...... Don't go, I'll talk to you...... You're so rude! ”
