There was no other way, no one knew what to say... The smile on Li Yuan's face gradually turned into a bitter smile, a little sarcastic, "I don't even know how to reward Huairen..."
In fact, Li Shan, who is far away in Wonju, sometimes feels a bit dumbfounded when he thinks about it. At first, he tried to add a little weight to his insignificant chess piece. Although he went through countless hardships, the results were not bad. He was afraid of going up again and again, but by then In the end, the chess piece became heavier and heavier, until it reached the point where it is now.
Not to mention this time, even the last time Tiantai Mountain rescued him, Li Shan himself didn't get any reward... He also owed Princess Pingyang and Li Daoxuan a large sum of money.
All I can say is that nothing is more amazing than this.
But last time, Li Yuan and Li Shan could still talk to themselves, not as ministers, but as nephews, but this time it was an upright battle. With such great achievements, shouldn't they still be rewarded?
Of course there should be a reward.
But how to award rewards is a big problem, which will test the abilities of Li Yuan and other ministers.
The key was that he was too young, and he had already been conferred the title of county king. Pei Ji couldn't help but said, "Your Majesty, it was Meng Lang who was conferred the title of county king that day."
Pei Ji was the only one in the whole court who could speak to Li Yuan in this tone, and the latter smiled bitterly and shook his head.
Chen Shuda coughed twice and said, "That day I was the Duke of Guantao County. I captured Yugu Shi in the Yanmen victory and became the Duke of the county. I defeated the Turks three times and became the Duke of the country. This time I happened to be included in the clan and canonized as the county king."
Yang Gongren reminded, "Don't forget Tiantai Mountain to rescue you..."
Chen Shuda was speechless, that man was too capable. Xiao Yu on the side added: "This battle has defeated the Turks, but it is not over yet. After the three states are recovered..."
Yes, if, as Li Shan boasted in the Taiji Hall, he recaptured the three states, captured Liang Shidu, and Liang Luoren and brought them to justice, how would they be rewarded at that time?
Impossible?
Of course it's possible. Li Shan was boasting about defeating the Turks back then, but hasn't he done it now?
Chen Shuda thought about it and murmured: "It would be better if I didn't confer the title of county king on that day."
Li Yuan laughed a few times and said, "I signed an alliance with Tuli Khan that day, and that guy will sworn sworn sworn brother to the king of this dynasty..."
The few people who didn't understand the inside story were speechless, so you always sent Li Huairen to top the tank?
Faced with this situation, Li Yuan had no choice but to do anything. Although Li Shan had thought about similar problems before he went on the expedition, who would have thought that that guy would actually achieve such a great victory, beheading 30,000 people... The first great victory against the Turks was Yan After a great victory, he set new records in Guji Town, Yunzhou, and Cangtou River, and now he has set new records again.
If no reward is given, or if all the generals are rewarded but the main general is not rewarded, how will the Manchu Dynasty comment on this?
After being quiet for a while, Li Shimin, who had his eyes closed, was about to doze off, and his heart was tired for Li Yuan... It was indeed not easy to handle, and he couldn't come up with any good solutions.
His mind wandered, and in order not to doze off, Li Shimin began to make plans... After he ascended the throne, Zhang Shigui and Zhang Gongjin in the Tiance Mansion were both talented men, Cheng Yaojin and Yuchi Jingde were talented generals, and Li Shiji was attached to him. , Li Daoxuan, in addition to Li Daozong, the king of Rencheng, and Li Yaoshi, the famous general in the world.
If there is a war, there is no need for Li Huairen to take charge of the overall situation, and the opponent is also a man who knows how to advance and retreat, so the monarch and his ministers will definitely help each other.
After being silent for a long time, Yang Gongren broke the jar and said: "The battle report mentioned that Dubu Khan and Tuli Khan have returned to the north. It is better to lead the army with the Duke of Fou or the Duke of Zhao, and transfer the King of Handan back to the dynasty, maybe he can take up the post." A minister of the Ministry of Personnel, even a minister of the Ministry of Personnel."
Yang Gongren didn't have any malicious intentions. He also knew that others would not think so. Even Li Shan himself could understand that after defeating the Turks and regaining the three states, there was really no way to award him... Could it be possible for His Majesty to confer another title on Tiance? Will?
The King of Qin was so miserably defeated by the combined efforts of His Majesty and the Crown Prince a few years ago. You, Li Huairen, do not have the same foundation as the King of Qin.
Besides, Yang Gongren still holds the concurrent post of Minister of Civil Affairs, so I don’t feel bad about sending him away.
Everyone in the palace also knew what Yang Gongren meant. Not to mention that his eldest son had a good relationship with Li Shan, even if it was a battle at Tiantai Mountain, he still owed Li Shan for saving his life.
But this idea is really not a good idea. Chen Shuda hesitated and said: "After the victory, I will transfer the general to return to the court. I am afraid of being alienated..."
Li Yuan nodded in agreement. This separation refers to the separation between the monarch and his ministers... Although Li Yuan is sure that this will not happen, this kind of thing is not the behavior of a wise monarch.
Yang Gongren spread his hands, "Then how to deal with it?"
"Even if he is transferred back to the court, it must be after recovering the three states." Pei Ji coughed twice, "Your Majesty, why don't you send some important ministers to work in advance?"
Li Yuan's eyes lit up. This was a good idea. He sent an important minister, Laojun, to show off. Even if there was no reward, there wouldn't be any trouble.
Yang Gongren added: "We should send another close minister to be gentle."
Li Yuan was stunned for a moment and laughed: "Yes, yes, you should send your close ministers."
Among the officials of the Manchu Dynasty, whether they were chamberlains or prime ministers, the ones Li Yuan saw the most on weekdays were Zhongshusheren. If he wanted to be a Zhongshusheren, who else could he be besides Cui Xin?
Li Yuan smiled while scanning the various prime ministers and ministers. It would be best to choose a prime minister and minister to send out important ministers. "It's a pity that Hongda cannot travel far, otherwise it would be the most suitable..."
Pei Shiju opened his eyes and showed a rather ugly smile. Everyone could understand. After all, his only son died tragically and was related to the King of Handan. Otherwise, he would be the most suitable candidate. He had been recommended several times in the past. How could Li Huairen achieve his current status? Pei Shiju’s contribution is indispensable.
Li Shimin couldn't help but open his eyes, glanced at Pei Shiju, and then at Li Yuan, thinking that if he really let Pei Shiju go, he might never come back, and he would probably die of illness on the way...well, he might also run into a Turk. Remaining soldiers.
Just seeing Pei Renji die in Huating, Li Shimin didn't think Li Shan would be merciful. After all, once Pei Shiju died, it would really be over. Pei Renji was dead, what could Li Dewu and Pei Shuying do?
Even if it is heard that there is Pei Ji in the Pei family's West Household House, it is difficult to stir up any trouble, not to mention that Pei Ji probably doesn't know the inside story yet.
Li Shimin guessed right. Although Pei Ji noticed that Pei Shiju didn't seem to have any good intentions towards Li Shan, he didn't know it yet and thought it was because of Pei Renji's death.
At the beginning, Pei Shiju didn't want to tell Pei Ji. After all, Li Dewu abandoned his wife and children and tried to harm him several times. This was not a shameful thing. But as time went by, Li Shan escaped from death again and again. In his high position, Pei Shiju found that he could do nothing on his own and had to join the East Palace.
At this time, Pei Shiju had no way to tell Pei Ji. Could it be that he had personal grudges when he told Pei Ji that he encouraged the prince?
To put it bluntly, this is using the prince as a gunman.
Not to mention that Li Shan is now so important in the court, and his status in Li Yuan's mind may not be much worse than that of Pei Ji. What kind of choice Pei Ji will make after knowing the inside story... Pei Shiju is not sure.
After all, it was Pei Shiju's family who had a grudge against Li Shan. Even if the crown prince failed to seize the legitimate title, and King Qin ascended the throne, would Li Shan still wipe out the entire Wenxi Pei family's western family house?
Even if Li Shan is willing, Li Shimin won't allow it, and Cui Xin won't allow it either... But if Pei Ji insists on getting involved, it's hard to say.
