After Li Shan finished speaking, Pei Ji took the list written by the clerk and thought in his mind. Xue Wanche, Wei Yunqi, Yang Wenqian, Li Mengchang, Guo Xiaoke, and Zhang Shigui were not at a disadvantage.
Feng Lun, Tang Jian, and Li Xiaogong remained silent. Chen Shuda couldn't help turning his head and staring at Li Shan. These people you recommended are really a bit...
Hu Yan and Duan Decao are both your direct descendants, Yang Ze can barely be considered your former subordinate, Xue Wanche and you are sworn brothers, Li Mengchang is your brother-in-law... This guy is also the direct descendant of the Cui family in Qinghe. The girl is Cui Jiuniang, and she has a very good relationship with Cui Shiniang.
Except for Wei Yunqi, everyone has something to do with you. If he hadn't known Li Shan for many years, and if he hadn't known that Su Dingfang had resigned as the marching director of Lingzhou Road, Chen Shuda would have scolded him for being too domineering.
"Then send it over." Pei Shiju raised his hand and said, "Your Majesty should be waiting impatiently."
After the Minister of Civil Affairs hurried away, everyone gradually came back to their senses. Feng Lun quietly looked at Li Shan. It was fine to arrange it like this, but his thoughts turned so fast, and his guess was so accurate... He placed it on the tenth A few years ago, Yu Shiji would not be allowed to be around Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty.
Yu Shiji was the most famous traitor during Emperor Sui Yang's reign in Jiangdu.
Pei Shiju cursed in his heart, look at what you did, you actually had the nerve to call me a sycophant that day!
Generally speaking, these people recommended by Li Shan are still in harmony. Li Mengchang is a general in the Qin palace, Xue Wanche and Wei Yunqi are attached to the East Palace, and Guo Xiaoke, the general manager of Lingzhou, is a confidant of the Qin king. But the key is the other states. The people he recommended seemed to be his old subordinates, but in fact, these people were not involved in the fight for the heir, but remained neutral.
In other words, Hu Yan, Yang Ze, and Duan Decao can be regarded as Li Shan's old troops, but these people are Li Yuan's direct descendants, and they are all old men who were by his side when he started the army in Jinyang.
Li Yuan delegated the power of discussion and specifically singled out Li Shan. He just wanted to see this scene... so that the two sons could reach a balance and at the same time strengthen the power of his direct line.
Sure enough, a quarter of an hour later, the Minister of Civil Affairs came back quickly and handed the list to Feng Lun, "Your Majesty ordered the book to be drafted."
They all drafted an edict directly... Li Xiaogong looked at Li Shan with a strange look. He remembered the rumors that circulated in Chang'an half a year ago. Is Li Shan really not related to His Majesty?
After leaving Shangshu Province, no one could be seen on Chengtianmen Street, and the Yamen had already been released. Li Shan got on his horse at Zhuquemen, rode out of the city at high speed, and returned to Zhuangzi before dark.
"Wei Yunqi?" Ling Jing was a little surprised, "Why are you asking him?"
"Is this person attached to the East Palace?" Li Shan blinked, "The Minister of the Ministry of War of Yizhou Daoxingtai, this should be the few people in the East Palace in Yizhou. Didn't His Highness mention it?"
"No." Ling Jing shook his head, "But there is a gap between this person and Dou Gui. Dou Gui once said that he will be beheaded one day."
Li Shan reached out his hand, his fingers unconsciously picking at the chapped skin of his lower lip, and murmured, "Is this person really attached to Dong Palace?"
"What happened today?" Ling Jing was too lazy to bother Wei Yunqi, "Is there any change in Yuanzhou? Where is Xiazhou?"
Li Shanqian laughed a few times, and at Ling Jing's urging, he explained the matter in detail from beginning to end. Ling Jing was dumbfounded... Including the transfer of Hu Yan and Yang Ze, half of the Guan Neidao were transferred. Li Shan pointed fingers.
"As long as Zhang Shigui does not lose the governorship of Yuanzhou, it is also suitable for Xue Wanche to be the general manager of Xiazhou." Ling Jing did not need to look at the map, and slowly calculated for a while: "Guo Xiaoke of Lingzhou, Zhang Wu'an of Yuanzhou, Li Mengchang of Longzhou , but they are connected together."
"There is Jingzhou between Ningzhou and Longzhou. Qian Jiulong, the governor of Jingzhou, is a direct descendant of His Majesty. However, after serving under the King of Qin for many years, Wei Yunqi is a famous general, but there is nothing he can do."
"Wei Yunqi may not be from the East Palace." Li Shan emphasized again thoughtfully, "Dou Gui has always been neutral. He accompanied his nephew on the expedition. In the army, he did not get along well with the generals from the East Palace and the Prince of Qin's Palace. But, There won’t be any unnecessary disputes.”
Ling Jing thought for a while, "What Huairen means is that Dou Gui and Wei Yunqi have a deep hatred, so the latter may not necessarily be a disciple of the East Palace?"
"Well, and Jingzhao Wei...we have Wei Ting here, Wei Yunqi's two cousins, and don't forget the prince's family leader Wei Qingsi." Li Shan smiled and said: "The Li family in Longxi has a room in Danyang. The three brothers serve the three masters separately... Wei Yun went to Yizhou in the first year of Wude, so there is really no need to join the East Palace."
"Indeed." Ling Jing pondered for a long time and then said with a smile: "Huairen's mind moved quickly today and he picked out Duan Decao and Hu Yan."
"Duan Decao was mentioned in front of the emperor that day." Li Shan snorted. He felt that Li Yuan's main target was Duan Decao. He hoped that this direct descendant could be reinstated as the general manager of Yanzhou. However, after all, Duan Desao was defeated in Lingzhou and his reinstatement as the general manager of Yanzhou would be easily betrayed by others. Finding faults.
To put it bluntly, Li Yuan did not want these positions to fall in the East Palace lineage. Perhaps it was because of his dislike of the prince, but Li Shan's consideration was more due to Li Yuan's concern about the Turkic attack. After all, there were two major defeats in Lingzhou last year. Li Yuan was extremely disappointed with Donggong.
But Li Yuan didn't want the conflict between himself and Dong Gong to be exposed or even intensified, so he couldn't openly side with King Qin, and maybe he didn't want to side with him, so he used this method to hint Li Shan.
Not only does it prevent the conflicts between Li Yuan and the East Palace, as well as the Qin Palace and the East Palace, from intensifying, it also ensures that state affairs will not be delayed... Li Shanming has no position on his face. If he were to recommend, it would be impossible to recommend Zhang Zhongjian, Qu Silang, and Hou Hongtao to avoid suspicion. , so the most likely ones are Hu Yan and Duan Decao, Li Yuan’s direct descendants.
Li Shancai and Ling Jing reorganized and reviewed today's events and found no loopholes. Li Shancai got up to say goodbye and returned home slowly.
"Mr. Lang is back." Cui Shiniang personally helped Li Shan change into regular clothes, "I came back very late today, and my mother is still waiting."
The Li family doesn't necessarily eat in the morning or at noon, but usually the whole family eats together in the evening... Of course, there are only three of them, so Zhou and Xiaoman can only stand aside and serve.
"Go quickly. I had a good meal this morning, but I only ate two biscuits at noon." Li Shan cursed a few times. Those old bastards didn't let anyone go at noon, even himself and Li Xiaogong, two mutes. He didn't even let go, so he had no choice but to find a clerk to buy some biscuits, which were already cold when he ate them.
After casually wiping their hands and faces, the couple got up and went to the main courtyard. When they saw people coming, Mrs. Zhou arranged for the maid to pass the dishes... In order not to disturb the young couple, Mrs. Zhu specially arranged for Zhou and Xiaoman to be transferred during this period. Came to the main courtyard.
Li Shan felt that his mother was still worried that he would create a concubine whose eldest son would be shameless...
"Greetings to mother." Li Shan bowed and sat down. He saw Cui Shiniang behind him saluting in a dignified and graceful manner, especially when she stood up, her movements were slow and rhythmic, unlike her own pretentiousness.
"The Eleventh Mother is still filial." Mrs. Zhu glared at her son, "Why are you back so late today?"
You didn't care about these customs before. It's really not a good thing to have a comparison. Li Shan complained at the same time: "Children also have filial piety... Next time, the mother will eat first, and the children don't care."
"I'm not worried about you, I'm worried about Eleven Niang."
The corner of Li Shan's mouth twitched and he glanced at Cui Shiniang who was hiding her mouth and snickering. He really became a son-in-law.
