Downstairs in the quiet backyard, Cui Xin stepped up his steps, coughed twice, and then walked upstairs.
"Father."
"This is..." Cui Xin glanced at the letter on the desk. The familiar envelope made him feel a little bad. He forced a smile and said, "Did that kid write a letter?"
Cui Shiniang's cheeks turned red, but she picked up the letter and handed it over, "Li Langjun's new work."
Didn't Wen Yanbo say that guy has no new works in the past few months... Cui Xin took it and looked down at it for a few times, his face changed slightly, he recited it silently several times in his heart, and sighed: "Another masterpiece that has been handed down from generation to generation. "
Cui Shiniang was a little surprised. After all, she was still young and could not understand the true meaning of the poem. "Father, this poem..."
In Cui Shiniang's view, among Li Shan's many poems, this one is the most ordinary... There is bright moonlight in front of the bed, which is suspected to be frost on the ground. He looks up at the bright moon and lowers his head to miss his hometown.
Cui Xin shook his head and said: "It is simple and easy to understand, without fancy words, but it simplifies the complex and has a profound artistic conception."
"Well, I remember that there is a line in "Spring and Autumn Flowers and Moonlight Nights" about 'the frost is flying in the air without noticing it.' It seems to have the same purpose."
When later generations mention poets, they often blurt out Li Bai... Most ancient poets are only good at one style. Like Xin Qiji, few can be both heroic and graceful. Like Li Bai, he has both "Sleepwalking Tianmu Yin Farewell" and "The Road to Shu is Difficult" " is as gorgeous as "Thoughts on a Quiet Night" and other works that simplify the complex. Looking at ancient and modern times, this is the only one.
Well, that's probably what Cui Xin is thinking about now.
After briefly explaining a few words and seeing his daughter's expression, Cui Xin sighed in his heart, that's all, that's all, next year... no, forget about getting married the year after, it's easy for that kid!
At this time, Mrs. Zhang led her maids and maids to bring over the gifts that were obviously for Cui Shiniang. The family of three sat down and chatted, but Cui Xin was thinking about Li Huairen writing this song "Quiet Night Thoughts" , and even sent it here specially, maybe it has deep meaning.
He first fought in Shandong and then went north to Daizhou. During this period, there was no peace in Chang'an. Now Li Shan may have the intention of taking a break... After all, he has made great achievements many times and has been conferred as a county king. He holds a lot of weight in the court and is qualified to take a break. .
In the past six months, Li Shan has shown his talents, and Cui Xin has always been worried about Mu Xiu Yulin, but now it seems that he knows how to advance and retreat.
I just don't know very well, what kind of job will this guy have after returning to the court?
At this moment, similar topics also appeared in Tiance Mansion.
Li Shimin, who was sitting at the top, shook his head and said: "The Sixteenth Guards... I'm afraid there is no hope, so Huairen doesn't want to take up the post, right?"
Ling Jing nodded silently. Although Li Shan had many military exploits, he rarely personally led the army. It was really pointless to enter the Sixteenth Guards... If you wanted to enter, you could have entered when Princess Pingyang took charge of the Beiya Imperial Army.
Apart from Li Shimin and Ling Jing, only Fang Xuanling was present in the house. This famous minister who was famous for recommending and recognizing people in history and who served as the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel for a long time in the original time and space could not help but frown... Regarding how to place Li Shan, it was really confusing. People have headaches.
This needs to take into account the reaction of the East Palace, the perception of Princess Pingyang, the thoughts of His Majesty Li Yuan, and more importantly, the positive significance for the lineage of King Qin.
But the most important thing is Li Shan himself.
As county kings, they either go out of town, such as Li Daozong, Li Xiaogong, and Li Shenfu who were driven to Lingzhou by Li Shan. If they are in Beijing, they generally do not hold positions. At most, they have a title in the Sixteenth Guards.
For example, Li Shentong and Li Daoxuan fought in Hedong and Shandong successively. Now they only have the titles of General Zuo Wuwei and General Zuo Weiwei in Beijing. They do not actually hold power on weekdays and have no other part-time jobs.
However, Li Shan said that he was included in the clan and conferred the title of county king, but in fact he was not a legitimate clan member. It was obviously inappropriate to have made such a great contribution and be left idle when he returned to the court...
Several other people who were included in the royal family and conferred as county kings, such as Luo Yi, who was also serving as the minister of the Ministry of War in Beijing that day, and Li Shan, unlike Du Fuwei, who had to close the door to thank guests because of the Jianghuai Army.
But how to choose a position is really a problem, because Li Shan is in charge of the Daizhou Governor's Office. He is one of the top border officials in the world. He is highly trusted by His Majesty and has made great achievements in the frontier fortress. However, his position is only a fifth-grade representative. Governor Shi... Logically speaking, Hui Chao should be promoted.
However, promotion to the fifth rank in the court, fourth rank to Liubu Minister, third rank to Sixbu Shangshu, or three provinces and six ministers... at Li Shan's age, it is obviously inappropriate.
After frowning and thinking for a while, Li Shimin smiled and said, "Huairen should have his own plan, right?"
Ling Jing nodded slightly, "Maybe... I haven't explained it yet."
Based on their understanding of Li Shan, this guy should have a plan, but he just didn't say it out loud.
In the final analysis, I was just afraid of wronging Li Shan. If Li Shan took the initiative to apply for a job, even if he was not a match, it would not be considered wronged.
At night, Ling Jing, who returned to Zhuangzi, summoned the personal guards who were escorting the Zhou family back to Beijing to inquire carefully. Mayi had been secured and everything was going well in Guji Town. Although there were Turkic cavalry from time to time, Shuozhou Division soldiers joined the army and Zhang Zhongjian led the fine cavalry to fight. Expel the Turks and ensure that Guji Town is not affected.
There should be no problem... Ling Jing thought in his mind. Half a month ago, Fugong Er was captured and Jiangnan was pacified. The sage issued an edict to cancel the Southeast Daoxingtai and establish the Yangzhou Governor's Palace. Prince Zhao paid homage to the Governor of Yangzhou and Jianghuai The states of Shannan, Shannan and Lingnan were all under his jurisdiction, and Li Jing, the Duke of Yongkang County, served as the chief historian.
Li Xiaogong will definitely stay in the south of the Yangtze River for a long time. Li Jing led 5,000 Jianghuai soldiers north to take office in Daizhou. He should be able to take office in early May... Ling Jing remembered that Li Shan highly praised the Yongkang County Duke in his letter and talked about his confrontation with the Turks with a sense of schadenfreude. .
Well, Li Shan was stirring up trouble in the north, and Jieli Khan was furious. Li Jing had to bear the consequences... Li Shan said in his letter that he had great confidence in Li Jing.
Ling Jing was a little surprised when his second son's voice sounded outside the door. Zhu Wei, the head of the Zhu family, came to visit.
"Returning to serve in the imperial court?" Ling Jing shook his head, "Huairen didn't mention it."
Zhu Wei was a little worried, "You won't be a foreigner again, will you?"
"Not necessarily..." Ling Jing said quietly: "Now the imperial court is seizing the direct descendant Rilie... But he was once in charge of the governor's office of the prefecture, and it is really difficult to place him in a foreign position..."
The general manager of Daizhou is already one of the most powerful officials in the border areas. Only Li Xiaogong and Li Daozong in the world can beat Li Shan. What other position can he choose?
Ling Jing suddenly smiled and said, "Let's talk about it after we return to the court. Huairen should have a plan... If nothing else works, I might as well take a rest for a few years."
Zhu Wei was deeply worried in his heart, but he couldn't express it... Although he didn't know that Li Shan had joined the King of Qin, he was not stupid. Li Shan would discuss many plans with Ling Jing, and the latter had long been a strategic plan. The government belongs to the official.
Outsiders don't know, but Zhu Wei is almost certain that through Ling Jing, Li Shan is likely to be related to the King of Qin.
But the eldest man is still in the East Palace... Zhu Wei sighed, cheered up, and whispered: "Before Huairen took office last year, I asked him to pay attention to his whereabouts."
Ling Jing raised his eyebrows. He knew that Li Shan had sent someone to follow Feng Lun... but he didn't know what happened.
"This person is a disciple of the East Palace, a member of the Crown Prince's Guards. He was appointed as the governor of Yanzhou, Hebei Province last year. Today I learned that he has been transferred to the governor of Fangzhou."
"What's your name?"
"Yang Wenqian."
"Brother Shen!"
"Um!"
When Shen Changqing walks on the road, whenever he meets someone he knows, he will say hello or nod to each other.
But no matter who it is.
There was no unnecessary expression on everyone's face, as if they were indifferent to everything.
To this.
Shen Changqing has become accustomed to it.
Because this is the Demon Suppression Division, an organization that maintains the stability of the Qin Dynasty. Its main responsibility is to kill monsters and monsters. Of course, there are also some other side jobs.
It can be said.
Everyone in the Demon Suppression Division has a lot of blood on their hands.
When a person is used to seeing life and death, he will become indifferent to many things.
When he first came to this world, Shen Changqing was a little uncomfortable, but he got used to it over time.
The Demon-Suppressing Division is huge.
Those who can stay in the Demon Suppressing Division are all powerful masters, or those who have the potential to become masters.
Shen Changqing belongs to the latter.
Among them, the Demon Suppressor Division is divided into two professions, one is the Guardian Envoy and the other is the Demon Slayer.
Anyone who enters the Demon Suppression Department starts from the lowest level as a demon slayer.
Then he will be promoted step by step, and he is expected to eventually become a guardian envoy.
Shen Changqing's predecessor was a trainee demon slayer in the Demon Suppression Division, and he was also the lowest level among the demon slayers.
Possessing the memory of a previous life.
He is also very familiar with the environment of the Demon Suppression Division.
It didn't take long for Shen Changqing to stop in front of a loft.
Unlike other places in the Demon Suppressing Division that were full of chills, the attic here seemed to stand out from the crowd, showing a different kind of tranquility in the bloody Demon Suppressing Division.
At this time, the attic door was open, and occasionally people came in and out.
Shen Changqing only hesitated for a moment before stepping in.
Enter the attic.
The environment changes in vain.
The fragrance of ink mixed with the faint smell of blood hit his face, making him frown instinctively, but then relaxed it quickly.
There is almost no way to cleanse away the smell of blood on everyone in the Demon-Suppressing Division.
