Chapter 353: Squire
"They said they would choose a husband for His Highness."
"Poof-" All the tea in Li Sheng's mouth squirted out, and the maidservant girl on the side hurriedly picked up a handkerchief to help wipe it.
Li Shengxi's expression was complicated, with mixed tastes, "This stupid trick was thought up by Uncle Li Wang, right?" ”
Nian Xi held back a smile and nodded, "Later, it was His Royal Highness King Yongwang who blocked this matter, and they said that when His Royal Highness returned to Beijing, the nobles of the city would be selected by His Highness." ”
"This is the reward for defeating Northern Qi?" Li Shengxi raised his eyebrows, even if he didn't defeat the Northern Qi, the nobles of the city were still at her mercy, where did she need this.
"Yes." Nian Xi nodded.
"This is to let His Highness marry, and then take away His Highness's military power?" Rong Ji couldn't help but laugh too.
Li Sheng attacked his forehead, "The national funeral is still a few months." ”
"That's almost there, it's June now, and besides, does Your Highness want to leave for Beijing immediately?" Rongji asked.
Emperor Hongxing died in November last year, and the whole country will mourn until at least November this year.
Li Shengxun shook his head, "At a glance, I know that they want to take the opportunity to collect my military power, what are you doing in such a hurry to go back?" Moreover, Wangjing's power is not yet stable. ”
If we are unified today, if we want to integrate the north and the south, the best way is naturally to move the capital. Although Linxi is good, it is helpless to live in the southeast, and from a good point of view, it is actually a more suitable choice to build a capital in Wangjing.
She didn't want the north she had fought to be lost in a few days.
Rong Zhi knew that Li Shengxing wanted to move the capital, so as soon as he heard Li Shengxing say this, he knew what Li Shengzheng was thinking.
"It's better to stay for another half a year, and when Wangjing is stable, then we will find the matter of moving the capital."
"For no reason, if they propose to move the capital, they won't agree." For her, she has deep roots wherever she is, but the little emperor is different, once the capital is moved, the little emperor will not even have the last bit of geographical advantage.
He didn't agree with Li Shengxi, and he didn't know that the old fox of King Li wouldn't agree.
"Now the Holy Lord can't be in person, and the government is decided by several auxiliary ministers, and among the auxiliary ministers, they are either neutral or personally attached to His Highness, and there is only one King Li."
"Although there is only one person, the rest of the auxiliary ministers are not as heavy as him." Li Shengxing shook his head.
"No matter how heavy King Li's weight is, he is not as good as His Highness after all. Since he wants to eradicate His Highness, His Highness can naturally eliminate dissidents. Rongzhi reminded.
Li Sheng was attacked, speaking of which, keeping King Li was also to sit in the south, and when she was still in the capital, where did she need King Li to sit in town?
Li Sheng picked up a fruit and threw it to Rong Zhi, "How do you speak." ”
Rong Zhi immediately caught it, and put the fruit back in front of Li Sheng's attack, "Your Highness, pay attention, Weichen settles accounts." ”
Li Shengxian sneered, and continued: "It's just that after all, he is a patriarch, so he has to think of a safe way." ”
Rongji nodded.
Li Shengxun looked at him, looking at the political situation in Beijing, there were a lot of bad debts, and the people under his hands couldn't be counted, so he found Rong Zhi.
"It's hard for them to bother to find you, and the people around me don't settle accounts faster than you." Li Shengxun sighed.
"It's not me who is the fastest settling account in Wangjing now."
Li Shengxian suddenly thought of something, and couldn't help but smile, "Then you calculate first, I'll summon her to help you." ”
They are talking about Zhan Qirui's wife, Meng Kun. This Meng lady is extremely proficient in arithmetic.
Li Shengxi asked someone to ask her for help, and she readily agreed, Wangjing is in ruins, and she can do a little bit if she can, not to mention what she is good at.
With Meng Kun's help, the matter of settling accounts is really much faster.
At that time, Li Shengxi also set up a banquet for Meng Kun.
"With the talent of the secretary, he is the one who serves in the household department, and he deserves it." Li Shengxi praised without hesitation.
"Your Highness has a good reputation." Meng Kun said very humbly.
Li Shengxian shook his head, "Where is the reputation?" A household is not as good as you. At least you can be ranked as a squire. ”
Everyone was stunned.
Li Shengxi's words are half-true and half-false, if they are said in other people's mouths, eighty percent will think that this is a polite polite remark. But it was Li Shengxun who said this, and there were three more points of truth in his words, which made people speculate for no reason.
After all, during the time that His Highness stayed in the middle of the war, he did a lot of unpredictable things.
For example, "Qing Tan" is often held to discuss current affairs related to Wangjing, and men and women are invited to participate, and she will also act on what is available in them. It seems that at this moment, Li Shengxi has become the empress of Wangzhong, and those men and women who participated in the Qing conversation have become courtiers.
Some time ago, I heard that the lord of Jiade County was good at writing, especially Buddhism, and Mrs. Liang Guo was proficient in the written languages of the dynasty and foreign countries. Orphans, Li Shengxi asked the two to translate the four books and five classics of this dynasty, as well as some Buddhist scriptures into Xirong script.
When the king of Sijon came to congratulate him, she gave them the book and asked them to recite it. Within a few years, Li Shengxi did not plan to raise troops in Xirong. The first is the unification of the country, which needs to be governed. The second is that the war of reunification was fought at sea and wasted, and it is necessary to recuperate.
In addition, some time ago, Xirong handed over the letter and was willing to make offerings. For the money sent for nothing, Li Shengxi will not refuse. Eventually, this money will be turned into military funds in the future. The money is willing to be given, and the Four Books and the Five Classics should be read. It's time to come to the assessment again every year, and if you can't pass the test, you will die.
Others thought it was strange about Li Sheng's behavior, but no one dared to say anything, and no one dared not cooperate. After all, today's Li Shengxi is the desired emperor of the soil.
"So Meng Niangzi, would you like to go to the Southern Dynasty with me? Within three years, the squire could be allowed. Li Shengxian asked with a smile.
If we are unified today and expand our territory, it will also be time to verify the household registration, investigate the number of people, and divide the land. There are still many things in the household.
Meng Kun is sensitive to numbers, she stuffed it into it to be an official, and when these things were finalized, she also accumulated experience as an official. When the time comes, he has made great contributions, why can't he enter the position of the waiter?
Meng Kun was slightly stunned, so this King Ning was not joking, this statement was true.
Meng Kun felt unexpected, but when he thought about it, he felt that it was reasonable. Today's events seem to be everything.
She herself, in itself, is such a precedent.
Faced with Li Sheng's proposal, Meng Kun's heart couldn't help but skip a beat. For others, Li Shengxi's suggestion is a great disapproval of the world. But for her, Li Shengxi's suggestion is indeed extremely tempting.
Because Meng Kun herself has been a very arrogant woman since she was a child, she is proud of her eyebrows, and she boasts that she is not inferior at all.
She also knew that what Li Shengxi said seemed light, but it was not so simple to do.
But she was still willing to try.
"If His Royal Highness does not give up, the concubine should follow."
wrote the male and female protagonists as villains.
There is no way, the contradiction between King Li and Sheng Xi is irreconcilable.
If it was when the Southern Jin Dynasty was in internal and external troubles, these two would definitely be of the same mind, and they would be stronger than anyone else.
But when it is peaceful, their end is destined to fight each other, and you live or die.
