The King of Handan and Acting Governor Shi Lishan, who are in charge of the Daizhou Governor's Office, have returned to any position in the court. This is not a sensitive topic, nor is it an issue that needs to be solved urgently, but it has caused quite a stir.
On the one hand, it is difficult to arrange, and on the other hand, it is Wei Ting, the prince's confidant who has a bit of a mouth.
Wei Ting mentioned in a joking tone at a banquet that Li Huairen could cause trouble no matter where he was. This comment was not unusual, but it only existed in the minds of some people who knew it. Wei Ting was the first to mention it openly... .
In the Liangyi Hall, today's proceedings have been completed. After the ministers retired, Li Yuan leaned on the couch and chatted with his closest minister, Pei Ji. Next to him were Prince Li Jiancheng, King of Qin Li Shimin and his servant Pei Shiju.
"That's true." Li Yuan burst into laughter, "Not to mention Shandong and Daizhou. Going to take the Jinshi examination can bring a lot of trouble in the city. Going to Qujiang to enjoy the scenery makes such a big noise. It seems that we really need to think carefully."
Li Jiancheng couldn't help but laugh, "Father, Huairen has made great contributions to Daizhou. How to arrange it when he returns to the imperial court really needs to be considered."
"Yes." Li Yuan nodded, "Remember Huairen's letter last month also mentioned that Daizhou's general manager's office recorded affairs and participated in the military?"
"Yes, Xue Wanche is a famous general in Hebei. He is intolerant of copywriting, which is not his strong point. Huairen intends to transfer him to join the army, and another person will be selected to join the military." Li Jiancheng explained tactfully. After all, it didn't sound good to Chang He to be kicked back.
Moreover, Li Jiancheng privately felt that Chang He was driven back... because of Duan Zhixuan's involvement. Li Shan obviously did not want to favor any force.
But now that the Jianghuai War has come to an end, Li Yuan has made up his mind to support Li Shan in building a stronghold in Shuozhou. It is obvious that Daizhou will become the focus next...the troops, grain, generals and various large resources will be tilted.
Li Jiancheng can rest assured about Li Jing, but he will never allow the King of Qin's lineage to gain an advantage in Daizhou... You already have Shaanxi Road, do you want to take away Daizhou?
Although Li Jiancheng secretly guessed that Li Shimin might not really want to occupy Daizhou, it was a bit taboo after all, but how could Li Jiancheng dare to let go of such a thing?
Therefore, Li Jiancheng was very satisfied with Li Shan's decision. In the system of the early Tang Dynasty, the general manager of a state held the power, and the assistant officials such as Chang Shi, Sima, and Biejia had no power. Instead, the lower-level officials who recorded affairs and joined the military were the actual leaders. The key to operation.
General Li Shan entrusted Zhang Gongjin with the garrison affairs and ordered Zhang Shigui to prepare for the establishment of Guji Town. However, at the same time, he gave Li Jiancheng the important future record and military affairs post.
To this end, Li Jiancheng considered for a long time before selecting a suitable candidate.
"Lu Chengji?" Li Yuan thought for a while and asked hesitantly: "It belongs to Duke Fan Yang..."
"The second son of Duke Lu She of Fanyang County was ranked the same as Huairen last year, and later entered the East Palace to serve as the prince's wife." Pei Ji on the side explained: "I heard that Huairen has a good relationship with him... ahem..."
"Supervisor Pei?" Li Yuan was a little surprised, why he stopped talking in the middle of the sentence.
Li Jiancheng stuck his head out and whispered: "Huairen recited poems in Kangfang several times, and Lu Chengji was always present."
"Hahaha!" Li Yuan laughed loudly, "I heard from Pingyang that Cui Xin dotes on his daughter. I wonder if Huairen will be punished?"
While Li Jiancheng was joking, he looked at Li Shimin opposite... You can push Li Kai and Li Yiyan over, and I can push Lu Chengji over.
Although we still don’t know what changes will happen to Daizhou after Li Jing takes office, two things are certain. First, the importance of Xia City will not decrease... On the one hand, it is for the public good. Daizhou is too important, but on the other hand, it is for personal gain. Li Kai, who is in charge of Xia City, is Li Jing's nephew.
Secondly, the importance of recording affairs and participating in the military will be increased. In the past few months, Xue Wanche did not actually exercise the power of this position. On the one hand, it was because Xue Wanche was not good at it, and on the other hand, it was also because Li Shan himself had other tricks. In the command system, he can even bypass the military affairs department and issue orders. This is based on his strong control over local forces and a network of interests.
Li Jing, who is about to take office, cannot do this. He who records affairs and joins the military will definitely have more power... His subordinates Si Tian, Si Bing, Treasurer, Si Nong, etc. join the army. In addition to Si Bing joining the army, He can reach out to almost every corner of the Governor's Mansion.
The most important thing is that in comparison, Li Kai and Li Shan are recognized as close friends. The former went to serve as acting county magistrate, while the latter did not hesitate to let go.
The personal relationship between Lu Chengji and Li Shan is much inferior, but they are related by marriage.
There are also traces of marriages within the seven families of the five surnames. For example, the Cui family of Qinghe often married the Lu family of Fanyang. Cui Xin's first wife was born in the Lu family of Fanyang and was the biological sister of Lu Chisong, the Duke of Fanyang County.
Although Cui Shiniang was born to the Zhang family, if we really talk about it, Li Shan would call Lu Chengji his brother-in-law.
Li Yuan frowned again. Although he didn't know the details of the inside story, he also knew that the boss and the second child were probably getting more competitive again... It was really troublesome.
Without thinking about this, Li Yuan brought the topic back casually, "Hongda is the best at selecting Cao Cao, and it was you who recommended Huairen to Daizhou that day..."
Li Shimin felt funny in his heart. If it weren't for Pei Shiju and Li Dewu, a pair of son-in-laws who repeatedly "helped" Li Shan, how would Li Shan be where he is today?
"Huairen returns to serve in the imperial court. Does Hongda have any good ideas?"
However, Li Shimin also knew that Pei Shiju was probably suspicious when he threw himself into the East Palace. He turned around and looked calmly, as if waiting for Pei Shiju's answer.
The white-haired Pei Shiju stroked his beard and pondered. In the past two years, this once famous minister seemed to have aged very quickly... Compared with Wude who entered the Tang Dynasty in the fourth year, he was almost ten years older, and even his voice was mute. In the air, trembling and towering.
"Your Majesty, I don't dare to make unreasonable comments." Pei Shiju said softly: "The King of Handan is as young and heroic as he is, and the only one I have seen in this life is His Highness the King of Qin."
Li Shimin raised his eyebrows and smiled, but did not speak.
Pei Shiju glanced at Li Shimin from the corner of his eye and continued: "The governor's history is from the fifth rank. Daizhou is Shangzhou, and it also governs Shuozhou, Yuzhou, and Xinzhou. It is the fifth rank. The King of Handan repeatedly made great achievements and forced Duke Rui to surrender. If you want to be captured alive, you should leapfrog your rank and be promoted to the fourth rank or from the third rank."
Li Yuan nodded slightly. This was the difficult part. It was obviously impossible for him to be a fourth-rank minister or a third-rank minister. The quotas for the fifth-rank eunuchs of the nine temples were also full, and most of them did not have high positions of authority.
Li Jiancheng asked tentatively: "Pei Gong means... Taipu Temple?"
Taipu was first one of the Nine Qings, in charge of political affairs. However, it was not established permanently in the northern and southern dynasties after the Han Dynasty. It was not reestablished until the Northern Qi Dynasty. The Tang Dynasty followed the Sui Dynasty and was one of the Nine Temples. The Taipu Temple Minister was the third rank. It's quite appropriate.
The key is that on the one hand, Li Shan is planning to build Xia City, the most important of which is Ma Yin. If Li Shan becomes the minister of Taipu Temple, he can naturally bring Ma Yin into the court.
On the other hand, Taipu Temple is now the sphere of influence of King Qin's lineage, and the minister of Taipu Temple is an official of Tiance Mansion... Anyway, this is a good thing for the East Palace.
But what Li Jiancheng didn't expect was that Pei Shiju shook his head slightly and said, "The King of Handan will take charge of the acting governor's office, and Xia City and Ma Yinjun will be controlled by the acting county magistrate Li Kai."
"What does Mr. Pei mean?"
"Your Majesty treats him as a nephew, is included in the clan, and canonizes him as a county king." Pei Shiju looked at Li Yuan, "Huairen is a righteous man. Looking at his actions in Daizhou, he is always responsible for public affairs, and he may be able to serve as Zongzheng Shaoqing."
"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.
