This time, Li Chengqian finally felt proud.
It's windy when I walk, and my legs are not very lame.
"Mr. Sima, Shiba, you are indispensable for achieving such an effect this time."
"I would like to propose a toast to you, father and son."
Sima Qiu stood up quickly, cupped his hands and said, "Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness. My father and son will work harder in the future and be loyal to His Highness the Crown Prince."
Sima Qiu was also trembling in his heart. The original plan this time was to let the prince offend the Guanlong Group that supported him, and let the Guanlong Group completely fall out with the prince.
The plan was successful, but it went wrong and gave the prince some authority, which made his majesty value the prince even more.
He didn't even know how serious this matter was. How would he explain it to the young master when he came back?
Will the young master misunderstand that he and Shiba have rebelled?
Eighteen stood aside, lowering his eyes, looking at his cheap godfather, feeling a little funny in his heart. He had obviously done a beautiful thing, but he felt very uneasy in his heart. He had already asked him eighteen times.
He must testify that he didn't really help the prince, he was just cheating.
But in this incident, the prince didn't have many people to support him. Now, all the nobles in Chang'an City hated the prince.
This matter was caused by the prince.
"Come and reward me!"
The little eunuch brought a plate, covered with red silk, to Sima Qiu's eyes, and smiled enviously: "Mr. Sima, congratulations!"
Sima Qiu turned around and cupped his hands again: "Thank you, Your Highness."
If you don't take it, it's nothing. It's the prince's money anyway. He took the risk to do such a big thing this time. No matter what, there must be some reward!
Sima Qiu took the plate and immediately smiled. The plate was heavy and must be good stuff.
Li Chengqian stepped forward in person, uncovered the silk, and a ruler-like iron sign appeared on the plate, with the words: Working together as one heart clearly engraved on it.
Sima Qiu's expression changed instantly, I... Damn it, who are you looking down on?
Is the reward still a reward?
Li Chengqian didn't feel embarrassed at all. The only one who was embarrassed was Sima Qiu.
He picked up the heavy iron sign and said with a smile: "Mr. Sima, I will reward you with these four words. We will work together and hope that we will continue to work hard and create greater glory in the future..."
"You also know that I am relatively poor. When I become rich in the future, I will reward you with a piece of gold."
"Come here, take the fifty coins from my study and give it to Shiba. Shiba has done an outstanding job this time. He is brave and resourceful. It is very hard to protect the safety of this palace."
Yan Yunshiba: "Thank you, Your Highness..."
"Eighteen, keep it well. When you fall in love with that girl, I will marry you."
Yan Yunshiba was speechless. After all, you are also a prince. Rewarding heroes is like a piece of iron. To those who always protect you, reward fifty strings?
The monthly salary given to us by my young master is ten guan, the rewards for meritorious service start from a few hundred guan, and the year-end bonus is more than 1,000 guan.
However, thinking about it on the other hand, it is not easy for the prince to reward him with fifty guan. After all, these 50 guan may be the prince's latest pocket money.
Li Chengqian picked up the wine glass and said with a smile: "Come, let the three of us have a drink. Today I will go to ask my father for instructions. I have decided that this time I will go to Luoyang, or somewhere further away, to experience the suffering of the people."
The corners of Sima Qiu's mouth twitched. If you want to go, you won't be afraid of being assassinated by Ren. Do you know how many people you have blocked and made money this time?
However, Yan Yunshiba was overjoyed. The secret order given to him by the young master was to try his best to encourage the prince to deal with those nobles and corrupt officials. In particular, he should take the prince to the bottom to let the prince see the worst side of the people. .
It is necessary to plant the seeds of hatred for the aristocratic family and nobles in the heart of the prince, and to make the aristocratic family and nobles stand on the opposite side of the prince. Only in this way, his pressure in the northwest will be greatly reduced, leaving the aristocratic family to worry about Li Chengqian and Li Shimin.
After he completed the unification and stability of the northwest, he turned around and everyone no longer posed any threat to him.
"Prince, my subordinates are willing to go with the prince. Even if they are broken into pieces, they will protect the safety of the prince."
"good!"
"I have the loyalty of you and my son for the rest of my life. This is my greatest blessing!"
When Sima Qiu saw that his godson had agreed so neatly, he understood in his heart that the young master might have other plans, so he bowed and said: "For the sake of the country and the people, I am willing to follow His Highness the Prince to the Mountain of Swords and the Sea of Fire. It is my duty to do so."
Li Chengqian was in a good mood, and everyone looked down on him, including his father, the emperor, and his mother. Even the nobles and ministers also looked down on him in their hearts.
After this incident, if anyone dares to look down on him, he will cause trouble for anyone who looks down on him.
After experiencing various incidents in the past few years, especially when facing his third brother, the feeling of powerlessness made him feel hopeless, but he also found a truth, which is to treat the people at the lowest level sincerely.
Only when he makes decisions for the people will the people support him. At critical moments, he can respond to all calls. In this world, it is not only nobles and noble families who can influence the current situation. Looking at history, it is often farmers with hoes who change history.
Li Chengqian and the other three discussed for a long time, and finally wrote an article called "Prospecting Hunting on behalf of Heaven, Supporting Justice". The article pointed out the current ills and spoke eloquently.
After Li Shimin read the article, he frowned and looked at Li Chengqian: "Which old man named Sima wrote this, or was it written by you?"
"Er Chen and his father and son discussed it together, and it was written by Er Chen himself."
Li Shimin nodded. Originally, he only wanted to send Ma Zhou, Leng Touqing, to guard Luoyang.
The prince suddenly changed his mind last night when he saw a big one. Ma Zhou was extremely intelligent, upright, and loved to get into trouble. Such a person would be a local magistrate's nightmare when he was a supervisory censor.
But his official position is too low, his power is too small, and his reputation is not great, so he may not be able to deter some people.
If the prince is placed in Luoyang, it will be different. No matter how cowardly the prince is, he is still the prince and the foundation of the country. M.biQuge.biZ
In addition, yesterday, the young prince, who was a fool, did another big thing that shocked the entire officialdom. The prince's reputation as being difficult to get along with must have spread.
Local officials are not afraid of senior officials, but they are afraid of inexperienced young people like the prince and Ma Zhou.
Now that the two stupid young men are placed in Luoyang, they must work conscientiously in the official circles of Luoyang.
"Since you want to share my worries, I will give you this opportunity."
"But the bad news is ahead. If you want to go to Luoyang to hunt on behalf of the sky, you can, but you must obey Ma Zhou's arrangements, otherwise don't go."
Li Chengqian was stunned for a moment, Ma Zhou?
Is it the Ma Zhou who wrote twenty memorials to his father?
"Father, are you the supervisory censor, King Ma Bin?"
Li Shimin nodded and said very seriously: "Ma Zhou is going to Luoyang here. He has a huge matter to deal with. If it is not handled well, it may cause a civil uprising. Ma Zhou is extremely capable, but his official position is too small. I am afraid he will not be able to intimidate him." Local officials and aristocratic families.”
"You are the prince, you should help Ma Zhou and scare Xiao Xiao."
Li Chengqian was also confused. Seeing his father being so serious, it seemed that something big was going to happen in the court again.
But even if his father didn't tell him, he didn't dare to ask.
"Father, please rest assured that I will definitely assist Mr. Ma."
"Go ahead. If you have time, go talk to Ma Zhou and get to know each other. Ma Zhou is a rare talent. He works meticulously and has the ability to assist..."
