Chapter 113: Anger and Shame

Li Daoyuan let out an "oh", a smile appeared on his face unconsciously, and he asked leisurely: "What is the truth of one person, and what is the truth of everyone?"

Li Leng said: "The Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Punishment are both departments controlled by His Royal Highness King Yu, but the Shangshu of these two departments has had accidents one after another, which is enough to show that His Royal Highness King Yu is using the wrong person." ”

"You talk nonsense. King Yu shouted angrily, "Do you dare to guarantee that Shen Hao and Cai Xiang will not have an accident?"

Li Leng said: "No." ”

"You can't, why do you say me?" asked King Yu angrily.

Li Leng said unhurriedly: "I have no selfishness. With my single-mindedness for Datang. Both of them were envoys who followed me to the Han Dynasty, and their performance showed that they were capable of holding these two positions. The reason why I recommend them is also because of their ability and loyalty to His Majesty, not to see if they are my people or not. Can His Royal Highness King Yu do this?"

"You ......" King Yu was so angry that he couldn't speak, and he wanted to refute a few words, but he didn't know what to say when the words reached his throat.

Li Leng said slowly: "If the father wants to reuse them, the father will consider it as a whole, so why should we, as the princes, interfere so much?

"The tenth brother is really sharp! King Yu said coldly.

Li Leng smiled and sat back down. In this way, Shen Hao and Cai Xiang's positions are firmly seated, and they really want to thank this honorary king.

Without King Yu being so angry, the Son of Heaven may not be so firm in supporting him and supporting Shen Hao and Cai Xiang.

"What do you mean...... I'm all clear. Li Daoyuan said lightly, "The prime minister and the king of Yu should get up! I don't mean to blame you. ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Zhou Wenbo and King Yu said at the same time, King Yu breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, today's incident gave him a lesson, he must not be impulsive in talking and doing things in the future, he must think twice.

"This personnel appointment and dismissal...... I made a decision after careful consideration. Li Daoyuan looked at the courtiers with majestic eyes, and said slowly, "I know that this decision is unfair to King Yu, but if such a big thing happens to the person you recommended, you must reflect on it yourself, instead of blindly passing the responsibility on others." ”

King Yu said in fear: "It's all the fault of the sons, and I can't detect their mistakes and intentions in advance." The more the sons were punished. ”

"Okay, don't say anything high-sounding, next time. Li Daoyuan didn't delve into it, and in one sentence, he covered the coffin, and he could be regarded as protecting King Yu.

"Next...... I have one more thing, if any of you completes it, it is the title of prince of the county, and I will make you prince, and I will give you a grade. Rest assured, I will handle this matter impartially. Li Daoyuan glanced at everyone and said word by word, "Whoever can recover the thirty cities in Northern Xinjiang on my behalf is the first hero of the Tang Dynasty, and I and the Tang Dynasty will never treat him badly." ”

One stone stirred up a thousand waves, and the courtiers had already expected that today's court meeting would definitely discuss this matter, but when Li Daoyuan, the son of heaven, said it, it still caused a lot of shock.

If Li Leng's envoy to the Han Dynasty promoted the alliance between the Han and Tang dynasties, and put an end to the grievances of the Han and Tang dynasties for nearly a thousand years, which is a great merit for the benefit of the country and the people, then the recovery of the thirty cities in northern Xinjiang and the strong resistance to the invasion of the Yuanrong clan are great merits for thousands of generations.

With the military support of the Han Empire, the Tang Dynasty recovered thirty cities in northern Xinjiang, and it was no longer difficult to resist the invasion of the Yuanrong tribe. So, everyone's minds began to come alive.

Whose hands will this end up with?

Li sat there calmly, his expression unfazed. There's one thing worth playing. Shen Hao and Cai Xiang both sealed their positions, but Shangguan Yun, a close confidant of the Son of Heaven, did not have any reward, but directly talked about the thirty cities in northern Xinjiang.

"Your Majesty......" Tang Erbo, the secretary of the military department, walked out of the queue and said loudly, "The military department has made sufficient preparations for the recovery of the thirty cities in northern Xinjiang, whether it is grain and grass, or troops, they are all concentrated. As soon as the commander arrives, the military headquarters can immediately send troops. ”

Li Daoyuan laughed, very satisfied with the recent actions of the Ministry of War, nodded at Tang Erbo, and said, "Does Tang Shangshu have any good candidates to recommend?"

"This ......" Tang Erbo glanced at Li Chengqian, the crown prince of the first echelon, without a trace, and said carefully, "It stands to reason that His Royal Highness the Ten Princes promoted the alliance between the Han and Tang Dynasties, and asked the Han Dynasty to send troops to help the Tang Dynasty recover the thirty cities in northern Xinjiang, so he should be in command of the expedition." However, the situation in northern Xinjiang is complex and changeable, and it is fighting against the Yuanrong people head-on, so it urgently needs a prince who understands military affairs and can control the northern Xinjiang as the commander. The minister thinks that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is the most in line with the requirements, and if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is the commander, I believe that within a month, the thirty cities in Northern Xinjiang will return to the territory of my Tang Dynasty. ”

The minister did not agree with Tang Shangshu's opinion. Xu Ye, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, walked out slowly. Although he is the lightest of the six scholars, he is the one with the highest qualifications and the strongest prestige among the six scholars. Some of his suggestions greatly influenced the final decision of the Son of Heaven.

Therefore, when he stood up against Thombard, everyone was in high spirits and wanted to know who the patriarch would ultimately support.

But the Ministry of Industry is the department controlled by King Yu, and the person he supports must be King Yu.

"Haha...... What is Elder Xu's opinion? Li Daoyuan laughed a few times and expressed enough respect and courtesy to this old man of the DPRK and China. To put it simply, it gave him enough face.

Xu Ye said: "Your Majesty, what Tang Shangshu said is not all right. The situation in northern Xinjiang is indeed complicated, because northern Xinjiang is intertwined with the Yuanrong people and the Tang Dynasty, and the three parties have been fighting in northern Xinjiang for nearly a thousand years. ”

Among them, the changeable relationship between the Han and Tang dynasties is the main cause of the complicated situation in northern Xinjiang. His Royal Highness the Tenth Prince sent an envoy to the Han Dynasty to help the Han Dynasty quell the rebellion, successfully facilitated the alliance between the Han and Tang Dynasties, and also made the Han decide to send troops to help us recover the thirty cities in Northern Xinjiang. In such a good situation, if the prince of the faction is the commander, the minister is afraid that the Han will have other ideas, and he is unwilling to send troops to help my Datang. ”

"Xu Shangshu, is your words serious?" Tang Erbo looked displeased, and said in a cold and stiff tone, "The Han decided to form an alliance with my Datang and is willing to send troops to support us in recovering the thirty cities in northern Xinjiang because Your Majesty is wise and the Tang Dynasty is strong. Do you want to say that the Ten Princes are more trusted by the Han than the Son of Heaven and the Tang Dynasty? This is a deception, Xu Shangshu, you have to think clearly about the answer. ”

His face was extremely cold, and even, his eyes showed a thick murderous aura.

Xu Ye Zhengse said: "Judging from the current situation, the Great Han really only trusts His Royal Highness the Ten Princes, and only His Royal Highness the Ten Princes serves as the military commander of Northern Xinjiang, so that the Great Han can send troops to help us." ”
