Volume 5 Chapter 669 The Change of Chang'an
For these guys in the Ming Dynasty, except for the Ministry of Industry, which can compete with the Tang Dynasty, the other departments are all disadvantages.
But they are not fools, since the other ministries have no advantages to speak of, then open another one, another one in the area where they have the most advantages.
At that time, Tang and Ming will be unified, and no matter how strong the officials of the Tang Department are, the Ministry of Commerce will be firmly grasped by them.
To this day, no one dares to say that it can be stronger than Daming in business.
Don't forget, Daming has been able to go all the way to today, and it is supported by business.
This is Daming's biggest advantage.
Li Chengqian nodded and said with a smile: "I have a prosperous business in the Ming Dynasty, and everything is in charge of the household department, and it is true that the work of the household department has been increased. ”
Hearing Li Chengqian's words, Li Qinjian immediately thanked him.
They are also planning for the future.
As long as Li Chengqian agrees to this matter, it will be much easier to handle.
When the court meeting dispersed, Li Qinjian and the others also smiled.
Judging from today's court meeting, Li Chengqian still supports them, and that is enough.
They are afraid that Li Chengqian will not support them, so in the future competition with the Tang Dynasty, they will inevitably fall into decline.
That's not what they want to see.
In the public hall, Pu Xiru said: "Since His Royal Highness has approved our invitation, then the next thing is the specific matter, first talk about the envoy to the Tang Dynasty, who will go?" ”
"Go down." Changsun Chong said, "To deal with the group of old gangsters in Chang'an, the lower officials are more experienced. ”
After so many years in Daming, Changsun Chong has lost his original elegance, no way, in Sun Moon Mountain, elegance can't be eaten.
Hearing him say this, everyone also nodded.
Indeed, Changsun Chong is indeed the most suitable candidate.
First, he is a household servant, and secondly, his identity can also make him more comfortable in Chang'an.
The officials of the Ming Department are all doers, and if this advantage is not used, it will be really blind.
"The eldest grandson is really a good choice." Li Qinjian also smiled when he heard this, "Let's not talk about anything else, at least for many matters in the Tang Dynasty, the eldest grandson Shilang knows much more than us." ”
"But the question is, is it too rash to send such a vigorous envoy to the Tang Dynasty to send only one household servant?" Qi Bi He Li said with some concern.
Although they also discussed these questions yesterday, there has been no clear answer.
Of course, in fact, it was all parties who wanted to take the lead in this mission, so there were differences.
When Li Qinjian heard this, he also smiled and said, "Didn't Your Highness allow us to open a commercial ministry again?" Since the Ministry of Commerce is opened again, there will inevitably be a post of secretary of the Ministry of Commerce, what do you think of Wang Xuance? ”
Wang Xuance is now the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and the level transfer of the secretary of the Ministry of Commerce is not a promotion.
Of course, as soon as everyone heard what he said, they understood that this was to make room for the eldest grandson.
When Wang Xuance heard this, he didn't say much, although he stayed well in the position of the Ministry of Rites, but when it comes to development prospects, it is naturally the Ministry of Commerce.
As for making room for the eldest grandson, he didn't mind.
In the final analysis, they are all Han Chinese.
Although there are some disputes inside, at this time, they are still one.
"Speaking of which, it would be condescending to let Wang Shangshu transfer to the Ministry of Commerce." Hearing this, Pu Xiruo also smiled, "But now it seems that there is no one more suitable than Wang Shangshu." ”
"Indeed, it's just that in this way, Wang Shangshu has been wronged." He Li also laughed.
"You all show love, but this matter still needs His Highness's consent after all, we don't count." Wang Xuance also hurriedly stood up and said.
When everyone heard this, they also said in unison: "That's nature, that's nature." ”
But they actually understood that if they really wanted them to recommend like this, Li Chengqian would not refuse to agree, in other words, as long as they didn't make trouble, the position of the secretary of the Ministry of Commerce would definitely fall on Wang Xuance's head.
Of course, they can't make any trouble.
Ministry of Commerce, that's not something they can play.
When it comes to business, the Han people are indeed more savvy than they are.
Moreover, even if their people control the Ministry of Commerce, without Li Qinjian's cooperation, hehe, it is all asking for trouble.
"But in this case, there will be a lot of vacancies in the imperial court......" Puxi laughed.
When they heard what he said, all the people understood.
You have occupied the Shangshu of the two ministries, but what about the other officials of the two ministries?
Li Qinjian was so shrewd, he immediately smiled and said: "That's right, but there is nothing the officials can do about this matter, and they still need two servants to discuss." ”
When Puxiru and Qibi He Li heard it, they understood in seconds.
The interests are all involved.
If it was before, they might still fight openly and secretly, but now that everyone is united with the outside world, they have no intention of internal friction.
Of course, this is also the reason why Li Qinjian is more suitable for this position.
If it's a problem with the military department, you see if they are so easy to talk to.
Everyone discussed for a long time, but these things obviously cannot be concluded in a day or two, it still depends on Li Chengqian's attitude.
……
On the other side, Datang.
With Li Chengqian quelling the rebellion, there were many small actions on Chang'an's side.
Not to mention that the scholars have increased their support for Wang Renyou, even some officials in the court have a feeling of unease.
No, since the news of Daming came, the threshold of Fang Xuanling's house was about to be trampled on.
"Liang Guogong, the situation is ...... now"
Fang Xuanling looked at the group of people sitting in the middle hall, shook his head, and said, "Okay, the old man knows what you want to say, what's the situation now?" Datang is thriving, Daming is also slowly developing, and the future is promising! ”
Although he has now retired from Zaifu's position, no one in the entire Datang Dynasty dares to despise him.
Come on, Fang Xuanling is really in place.
Second, now Fang Xuanling is in charge of the imperial examination, although he seems to have no real power, but he has a deep impact on many people.
"That's what I said." Next, an official heard the words and said, "But if Daming and Datang really want to be unified, we will be worried about the future." ”
At the end of the day, people are selfish, and they worry about themselves the most.
As far as these people are concerned, they have a bit of a background, but they are not worth mentioning in front of that person, if Tang Ming is really unified in the future, their situation will be embarrassing.
Fang Xuanling didn't say much when he heard this, if it continued like this, the situation of these people would be really embarrassing.
Daming has a whole team to cover, and they don't have any talents, and the best outcome may be to govern one state and one government.
But that's not bad, if you really want to say it, how many people are longing for it?
"Liang Guogong." Seeing that Fang Xuanling didn't speak, the man continued, "Recently, His Royal Highness the King of Shu has also made great achievements in Chang'an City, and since His Royal Highness the King of Shu took office in Chang'an Mansion, the changes in Chang'an are also obvious to all, and now His Majesty's attitude towards the King of Shu is ......."
"Stop." Without waiting for the man to continue speaking, Fang Xuanling directly interrupted him, "What do you want to do, then do it, don't tell the old man, the old man is now at home, he can do something for the court, of course he is willing, but as the so-called is not in his position, he does not seek his own government, and there are some things that the old man can not participate in."
Come, send off. ”
After that, Fang Xuanling unceremoniously got up and left, not giving everyone a chance to say more.
Everyone saw that Fang Xuanling was like this, and the steward of the house also came out to see off the guests, and everyone would not continue to stay here, and everyone also got up and left one after another.
It's just that there is a look of disappointment on his face.
In the back hall, Fang Xuanling had a sneer on his face.
"These guys are actually linked to those people in the Cui family, I really don't know how to write dead words?"
After that, Fang Xuanling shook his head, and he was also quite speechless.
The old servant on the side said with a smile: "That person killed like this in Daming, whether it was the meaning of that person or not, but Xue Rengui, as a party involved, didn't even dismiss the official, how could those guys not be afraid."
After all, they forced that person out of Chang'an City back then, and they were afraid that he would liquidate them in the future.
Compared to His Majesty, that one seems to be more ruthless. ”
"There's a mistake here." Fang Xuanling smiled and said, "Do you think they really want to go against that one?" It's just a temptation.
Five surnames and seven hopes, these guys get together, who dares to act rashly? If they hadn't had the confidence, do you think they would dare to provoke that one?
To put it bluntly, they were just looking for a replacement for themselves, and as a result, these guys were still rushing forward.
In this way, you will give a notice, and from now on, the house will be closed.
This trip is muddy, let's not get involved. ”
Hearing this, the old servant nodded, and was just about to reply, when he suddenly thought of something, and then asked, "What if it is Qi Guogong and others?" ”
"It doesn't matter." Fang Xuanling waved his hand and said, "They support the King of Shu, but they are clearly against the Duke of Qi, do you think the Guild of Qi can tolerate them?"
These people are all very good. ”
He doesn't care, it doesn't matter, anyway, it doesn't have much impact on his Fang family.
In addition, he is now idle at home, which is actually another protection for him.
As he said, if he is not in his position, he will only focus on the imperial examination now.
"Let's go get busy first, I gave His Majesty some comments on the music I gave to Your Majesty before, and I just need to revise it today."
When the old servant heard this, he bowed and left.
And everyone who just walked out of the house all shook their heads and said, "It seems that Liang Guogong is determined not to get involved in this matter." ”
"It's not nonsense." Someone said, "Fang Erlang is also a unique figure in Daming now, no matter what the outcome is in the future, can it still affect his Fang family?"
If my family has descendants in Daming and can have such an achievement as Fang Erlang, I am not afraid! ”
What he said was true, although all the nobles in Chang'an had their heirs to develop in the Ming Dynasty, there were really few who could really take the lead.
Besides, they are all the second sons or concubines of the family, even if they come up, can they all count on these people?
They are no bigger than the Fang family, the eldest grandson's family, and the family's great business.
"Hey, what's it called......" someone sighed helplessly.
As far as they are now, they are the most embarrassed, and they don't know how to deal with themselves.
"Okay, don't sigh, the King of Shu is still waiting for our letter, and I don't know what other people are doing."
This time, they are not only working hard for Li Ke, speaking of which, there are really a lot of people.
After a while, everyone came to the Shu King's Mansion.
Li Ke was sitting at the top at this time, his brows were furrowed, looking at his appearance, everyone guessed it, and everyone estimated that it was in vain.
In fact, it is normal, standing up to support Li Ke at this time, that is really gambling.
But those people don't need to gamble, so why take the risk at this time?
In addition, there are many people in the court who support Li Chengqian, so isn't it asking for hardship to be the first bird at this time?
They can't help it, but if there is a way, they won't make a statement so early.
"We are incompetent." Everyone bowed in unison.
Although Li Ke was annoyed, he was not angry, but when he heard the words, he walked down from the top, helped everyone up one by one, and said: "It's serious, it's not easy for you to run for this king at this time, how can this king be harsh on you?"
Speaking of which, this king is also afraid, thinking that this king's brother will kill more than 100,000 people in an instant, without blinking his eyes, if the future brother returns to the dynasty, how should this king deal with himself?
In any case, it was the king who stole the place that should have belonged to him. ”
The position he said was not the position of the crown prince, but the Yin of Chang'an Mansion.
Of course, the people present were also his confidants, so he dared to say this.
Over the years, he has actually attracted a lot of people, of course, those who can be enveloped by him are actually some guys who are difficult to get in.
For these people, choosing Li Ke is a big gamble in itself.
Li Chengqian's big ship, they are not qualified to climb up, so they will try to fight against the water.
At the beginning, Fang Xuanling, those guys didn't have today's status because of the right choice.
As for Li Ke, he didn't say that he had to fight, in fact, at the beginning, he broke off this thought, but it wasn't until Li Er gave him the position of Chang'an Mansion Yin that his mind became active again.
In addition, Li Chengqian has become more and more powerful over the years, and Daming has become more and more powerful, and Li Er seems to be interested in cultivating him, which makes him see hope invisibly.
This is also the reason why so many officials choose to bet.
"Your Highness, I'm afraid this matter will have to be discussed in the long run." Yang De said, "Although the person is not in Chang'an now, there are still a lot of people in Chang'an who support him. ”
"If this king says that this king has never wanted to fight him, do you believe it?" Li Ke shook his head and smiled bitterly.
Hard-hitting, what are you kidding, doesn't he know how many pounds and taels he has?
It's just that coming this far, and sometimes it's really not his intention.
He was also pushed by others to get to where he is today.
At this time, he envied Li Tai instead.
Li Tai broke his leg since that year, and after staying in Daming to recuperate, he really hid in the past, and now although he has returned to Chang'an, he has been closed for a long time on the grounds of leg disease.
Instead, he was caught up in the maelstrom.
But in the final analysis, it was still greed, he saw Li Er's dissatisfaction from Li Er's attitude towards Li Chengqian several times, and he was actually gambling.
However, it is also a fact that the strength is not good.
"Actually, we can fight for Qi Guogong." That's when someone said.
"Qi Guogong?" As soon as the man finished speaking, someone waved his hand and said, "Have you forgotten what is the relationship between Qi Guogong and that person?"
Even if the Duke of Qi is dissatisfied with that person, will he support His Highness? ”
The eldest grandson Wuji supported Li Ke, and they didn't dare to think about it.
How many of my nephews don't support and support others, what do you think?
"For Qi Guogong, who is it really important to support?" The man continued, "At this point, in the final analysis, it is all for the sake of profit, just like the Cui family, the Lu family, and the Zheng family, why do they support His Highness? Isn't it because they offended him so much in the first place?
Qi Guogong hasn't offended that one less over the years, right? ”
What he wants to say is not this, but interests, where there is family affection, as long as Li Ke can give enough benefits, the eldest grandson Wuji may not be a firm queen.
When Yang De heard this, he also nodded and said, "Qi Guogong can indeed fight for it, but before fighting for Qi Guogong, you must know the attitude of King Yue." ”
As Li Ke's staff, Yang De is still very responsible, over the years, Li Ke has been able to attract so many supporters, and Yang De has made a lot of contributions.
Especially the former Sui ministers of the year, almost all of them were won over by Yang De.
"Judging from the old man, King Yue seems to be determined not to get involved in the government." Someone said, "It is reported that someone from the Mansion of Qi Guo had been to the Yue Wang's Mansion before, but when they came out, their faces were dark. ”
"Why is that?" Someone asked, puzzled.
