Lecheng County Mansion, the front hall is lively, and the back hall is deserted.

Liu Renliang sat on the soft back of the long couch, looked at Li Xuan, who was asking for his pulse, and asked, "I heard that you are going to take Concubine Qi and Siniang to Fanzhou this year?" ”

"Hmm!" Li Xuan still bowed his head, but said in response: "This time is different from the past, after all, Fanzhou has been pacified, and there must be intersections, and the matter of the woman, the grandson-in-law is inconvenient to deal with alone, so he will bring Dou'er and Siniang over and let them help deal with it, which is better than being in a hurry at that time." ”

Liu Renliang nodded, there are many things that are inconvenient for men to do in governing the locality, so many officials will choose to take concubines in the local area to deal with affairs and win over the locality.

Li Xuan's preparation now also means that he has no intention of taking another concubine in Fanzhou.

After a slight pause, Li Xuan sighed lightly and said, "If it is possible, my son-in-law hopes to take Xia'er and Zhao'er away together, but unfortunately, the court system is strict, so it can only be so."

Fortunately, Saburo and Goro are not very old, and their son-in-law, who is a father, can also accompany them more. ”

Zhao'er is the eldest son of Li Xuanchang and the king of Jinchang County.

Even if Liu Jinyu left Beijing, Li Zhizhao couldn't move, but Li Zhizhao was here, where did Liu Jinyu move.

As for Xia'er, the lord of Fuchang has a special status in the emperor's heart, and everyone can see how to let her leave Beijing, Liu Jinyu had to stay and take care of her daughter and two sons.

Not to mention that there is also the Ouyang family.

As for Pei Shitong, she has a cold temperament and is unwilling to go to a remote place like Fanzhou.

Even if the Tubo palace was bright, she didn't want to go.

No matter how good Tubo is, it is too far worse than Chang'an in terms of products.

And she stayed in Beijing, Liu Jinyu could also borrow the power of the Pei family at a critical time.

Especially Pei Yan is still a servant.

……

Liu Renliang naturally saw everything very thoroughly, and he opened his mouth and asked: "The situation in the DPRK and China is like this, there will be no changes in a short time, can you understand it?" ”

"Understood." Li Xuan sighed lightly and said, "Your Majesty is preparing for the crown prince's accession to the throne. ”

"Yes, the crown prince ascends the throne, it is indispensable to reward the monarch and ministers, now vacate the position first, after the prince ascends the throne, he will be able to show grace to the ministers, and you are the same." Liu Renliang looked down at Li Xuan.

Li Xuan smiled indifferently and said: "It's nothing more than a fictitious title like the young master of the prince and the young master of the prince, unlike Yue Weng, who can also participate in political affairs." ”

"Hahaha......" Liu Renliang couldn't help laughing, then shook his head and said, "It's just temporary, maybe it will be completely done when it happens." ”

Li Xuan let go of his hand, got up slowly, and said at the same time: "Yue Weng's body still needs to be recuperated, although the old diseases in the early years did not hurt the vital points, they also need to be carefully recuperated in order to live a long life." ”

"It's enough to live a long life and live two more years, and to watch you go through such a change." Liu Renliang couldn't help but sigh lightly.

At present, the emperor is not in good health, and now the center is streamlined, which does not mean to reduce the dispute in handling political affairs.

After all, the prime ministers of the DPRK and China have different views and opinions on political affairs, and they often quarrel.

Today's emperors pay more attention to the local and commoners, and in many cases, the interests of the family will be harmed.

With less bickering, these things can pass.

The emperor can also rest more, so that he can have the energy to face the increasingly turbulent hearts of the people.

……

"My family is okay, after all, my grandson-in-law is outside, and Yue Weng is arrogant, and at the critical moment, we can't play a role, so Your Majesty won't care too much."

Li Xuan breathed a sigh of relief.

Liu Renliang's resignation as Shangshu's left servant is equivalent to the future, once there is a change, even if Liu Renliang is still the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty, he has lost the power to turn things around.

The word right is above that position.

Without that position, there would be no power.

But it is precisely because of this that once the critical moment in the future comes, Liu Renliang does not have any power to become an obstacle to the emperor and has no threat, which is not a good thing.

From another point of view, this is not a kind of kindness of the emperor to the old ministers.

Even on the other hand, Liu Renliang, the crown prince, and Li Xuan, the prince's guest, as long as the emperor does not want to abolish the prince, then their position will be unshakable.

Even if the emperor wants to abolish the crown prince, these people will only be removed from the official position of the East Palace.

Crown Prince, East Palace.

The emperor is tying Liu Renliang and Li Xuan firmly to the chariot of the East Palace.

If the emperor wants to abolish the crown prince, naturally no one can stop him, but if others want to do something to the prince, the combined power of the two people is the strongest in the government and the opposition.

The emperor was preparing for Li Xian's accession to the throne, and at the same time, he was also guarding against the power in Li Xian's hands being too strong and repeating the old events of Yang Guang at the end of the Sui Dynasty.

……

"Your Majesty sent a large number of children of the family to Fanzhou, how are you going to deal with it." Walking between the pavilions in the backyard, Liu Renliang looked at Li Xuan casually.

"Follow the rules." Li Xuan took a deep breath and said: "The major families, the real core children will not be sent to Fanzhou, and those who are thrown to Fanzhou are mostly the second sons, who enjoy glory and wealth, but they can't suffer much.

If these people stay in the big city, they will definitely get a miasma, so according to the rules, whatever official position the official position is set by the ministry, it is what official position, and no one is special. ”

"It's good if you see it." Liu Renliang breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Among these people, if they can refine one or two talents in the future, it will be a fluke." ”

"My son-in-law has been in Fanzhou for at least five years, and after five years, unless my son-in-law drives people away, no one wants to leave Fanzhou easily. Li Xuan's expression was firm, don't think about this group of people falling into his hands.

Liu Renliang sighed lightly: "The prime minister must start from the state and county, and the fierce general must be sent from the army." ”

Li Xuan smiled and said: "Han Feizi's words are the most reasonable, if you are not familiar with the state and county, you can govern the world, it is difficult to collect taxes, it is difficult to manage the generals, and in the end, the world is separated, and there is even a sign of the death of the country." ”

Liu Renliang nodded, most of today's Zaiji have experience in local states and counties.

is Xue Yuanchao, who also has ten years of experience in local assassination.

The only exception is Li Jingxuan.

Li Jingxuan has the ability to never forget, and he has entered the Ministry of Officials for many years, and he has never made a mistake, so that the emperor has never transferred him out of the Ministry of Officials.

He was in the ministry, and the emperor was relieved.

Later, in order to be promoted to prime minister, he walked around the battlefield in the west, although he couldn't say that he didn't do anything, after all, he attracted half of the attention of the Qin Ling, and even put the killer weapon on him, but unfortunately, he was too cautious.

The Guang army that attacked Shanzhou in Qinling directly pounced, and was finally extinguished by the army that arrived later.

But Li Jingxuan's military exploits were a bit empty after all, so Liu Xianli then bowed to the prime minister.

"Li Jingxuan doesn't know at all, in fact, his best position has always been the secretary of the ministry, he is in the ministry, and he is useful to His Majesty." After a slight pause, Liu Renliang said: "When Li Jingxuan went to the front line, the old man was worried, but fortunately, the others are still in Shanzhou, and the war is over. ”

Li Xuan nodded lightly, in the entire battle situation of the year, Li Xuan was also a party, and Li Jingxuan was indeed the weakest point.

Maybe it was cautious, or it could be called worry, Li Jingxuan suddenly stopped in Shanzhou, and a change in rhythm made the biggest backhand of the Qinling Ling.

It is this credit that Li Jingxuan then returned to worship the prime minister, and at the same time left the position of the secretary of the ministry.

"Yue Weng thinks, does Zhao Guogong still have a chance to return to the dynasty?" Li Xuan looked at Liu Renliang and said softly: "Your Majesty is still here, if you are born unlucky, will the prince have the opportunity to recall Zhao Guogong in the future like when he recalled the British Duke?" ”

"He didn't have a chance." Liu Renliang shook his head, pressed his hand on the pillar, and said softly: "If today, in the final analysis, it is just a dispute between the Longxi Gate Valve and the Hebei Gate Valve, Li Jingxuan is the key figure of the Hebei Gate Valve, Zhaojun Li Family, Qinghe Cui Family, Boling Cui Family, Fanyang Lu Family, half of the five surnames and seven families are here."

If it was a front-line war back then, and Hebei needed support, His Majesty would probably let Cui Zhiwen and Li Jingxuan be prime ministers at the same time, not to mention Cui Zhiyi's Hubu Shangshu. ”

Li Xuan nodded lightly, logistics has never been just about transportation, but also about grain and grass procurement.

Especially on the plateau back then, the army had countless grains and grasses being consumed every day, and there was even a bonus loss on the plateau.

Although there is a grain and grass support from the south of the Yangtze River, after the grain and grass from the south of the Yangtze River arrived, the DPRK and China first harvested a crop in Hebei.

This led to the later changes in Hebei, and the root cause of everything was still a big war, but it was able to drag on until the situation in Tubo changed, and the Hebei family played a big role.

But from contribution to coercion, it was just a blink of an eye.

"In addition to the Longxi Gate Valve and the Hebei Gate Valve, the Henan area is dominated by the old man, and the Shandong area; Originally, it was Li Jingye, but it's a pity that ...... As for Jiangnan, after the fall of the Xiao family, there are now many Jiangnan disciples under your command; In the land of two lakes, the one who can speak now is your uncle Ouyang Tong; Li Jingxuan of Qianzhou went, and Shuzhong was also the foundation of the Tang Dynasty. ”

Liu Renliang sighed lightly and said: "But these add up, and you can't see the backs of Longxi Gate Valve and Hebei Gate Valve." ”

Li Xuan nodded lightly, Ouyang Tong is now just a secretary of the military department, and if he wants to enter the cabinet as a minister, he will need a few years of experience.

But Hebei and Longxi have already pushed generations of prime ministers up.

"Now that the war has stopped, the imperial court's dependence on Hebei is getting lighter and lighter, in this case, how can Li Jingxuan come back." Liu Renliang shook his head calmly.

"After all, Datang is to resist the world with Guan Long." Li Xuan sighed lightly.

Liu Renliang has analyzed a lot before, Li Xuan has arrangements in Jiangnan, Lianghu, Shuzhong, and Fanzhou, but even if all places raise troops at the same time, it is far from easy to break through Guanlong.

The elite of Datang are all in Guanzhong.

Even Li Xuan's subordinates, in addition to the sailors in the south of the Yangtze River, were all Longxi soldiers first.

The only thing that can make him feel more relaxed is that Empress Wu will finally give up Chang'an and choose Luoyang.

At the end of the pavilion, Liu Renliang stopped, looked at Li Xuan, and asked, "You have been in the East Palace for a long time, do you think the prince is really suitable to be the king?" ”

Li Xuan's footsteps stopped and sighed lightly: "There is no problem for the prince to be the king, but in terms of what to do, Mingjun may be worse, but Renjun has no problem." ”

Liu Renliang smiled, Li Xian's temperament is a little weak, this is an obvious shortcoming, but in other words, he does have the foundation of Renjun, after all, the ministers of the government and the opposition, who doesn't like to sit on it, is a Renjun.

"But it's not enough to govern the Tang Dynasty." Liu Renliang's voice became solemn.

"However, the king of Xiang does not have enough time." Li Xuan stepped forward, side by side with Liu Renliang, and then said softly: "If it is now, abolish the crown prince and establish the king, the first one who does not agree is probably not Your Majesty, but the Queen of Heaven." ”

Liu Renliang was completely silent, and a trace of helplessness flashed in his eyes.

Although Li Xian's side also gathered a group of people, Li Xian's weakness was the core point, and the Empress Wu could accept it.

Although Li Dan is young, he is quite heroic, but he is somewhat similar to the abolished prince Li Xian.

This is something that the queen of heaven can't accept.

Thinking of this, Liu Renliang shook his head lightly: "But, what do I want a Renjun to do in Datang?" ”
