Datang Nongwang

Chapter 511
Li Chongyuan's challenge was so low that Li Shimin really wished he could call Li Chongyuan back to Chang'an immediately and beat him up, and he even wanted to beat Li Chongyuan up hard in his heart.

but.

He thought so, but the current crucial matter needed to make good arrangements for Yangzhou.

There are so many officials and there are problems. If Yangzhou is not properly settled at this time, if Yangzhou is in chaos, then Li Chongyuan will really become the target of public criticism.

Although Li Shimin said that he felt resentful about Li Chongyuan's dismissal of the pick.

But Li Chongyuan was not in Chang'an, even if he felt unhappiness, he had to endure it until Li Chongyuan returned to Chang'an, so he could teach Li Chongyuan a lesson.

At the time of the court meeting the next day.

Li Shimin let all the courtiers read the memorial sent by Xue Wu one by one.

And when the courtiers read Xue Wu's memorial, the complexions of the courtiers ranged from red to white to blue.

Fang Xuanling's complexion was so blue that it couldn't be any greener.

If Li Chongyuan was here, he might have dealt a blow to Fang Xuanling.

There is a saying.

If the matter of the enemy does not come down to the ground, then I will really be sorry for Li Chongyuan's temper, not to mention that this is still related to the death of his father.

Although Li Chongyuan was not there.

But Li Chongyuan's eldest brother, Li Chong, is still there.

This is not.

Although Li Chongji said his official position was low, he still had the right to watch Xue Wu's memorial.

As soon as Li Chongji finished reading the memorial, he just looked at his uncle, wanting to judge from his uncle's expression, whether he wanted to make things worse for Fang Xuanling.

Li Xiaogong also happened to look at Li Chongji at this time, and after seeing Li Chongji's questioning look at him, he nodded slightly.

In the past few years, Li Xiaogong basically did not participate in the court council.

Except for the two big court meetings in January where he will attend, the rest of the time, he just nestles in his own mansion to make babies.

But since last year, Li Xiaogong also began to face himself seriously.

He must attend the daily court meeting.

Immediately.

Li Chongji, who got the response, was the first to jump out before Wei Zheng jumped out, "My lord, I have something to say."

As soon as Li Chongji jumped out, Li Shimin's eyelids twitched and he squinted on the throne.

He knew it.

This Yangzhou Biejia Zheng Qiang is a member of Fang Xuanling, and it can be said that he is strongly recommended by Fang Xuanling.

But now that such a big event happened in Yangzhou, he knew that Li Chongji's father died in Yizhou because of Fang Xuanling's deliberate actions.

As a son, Li Jiaerlang would not miss this opportunity to criticize Fang Xuanling.

"Li Yushi, what do you have to say?" Although Li Shimin didn't want to see the court meeting go to war today, but seeing Li Chongji stand up, naturally he couldn't take Li Chongji's opinion.

According to the regular system.

Today is not a big court meeting, and Li Chongji's position is really not qualified to speak.

The matter of Yangzhou is also related to Li Chongyuan. As the elder brother, he can stand up and speak out. This qualification is still available, otherwise, Li Shimin would not be like this.

After Li Chongji got Li Shimin's words, he bowed to Li Shimin, looked at Fang Xuanling and scolded: "Fang Gong, as far as I know, Yangzhou Biejia is the person you recommended, and after the three-year merit test , Mr. Fang, you have repeatedly said that Yangzhou is not driving. Zheng Qiang is a strong person. During Zheng Qiang's several years in Yangzhou, he committed so many and such evil things. I don't know Fang How can you explain it, sir? You feel ashamed of the people of Yangzhou!"

Li Chongji's sharp reprimand made Chaotang tremble.

After Li Chongji's words came out, everyone looked at Fang Xuanling.

At this time, Wei Zheng, Li Chongji's immediate boss, also stood up, bowed to Li Shimin and said, "My lord, Li Chongji's censor said exactly what the censor said. At that time, Mr. Fang repeatedly recommended Zheng Qiang as the leader of Yangzhou. , even after taking the merit test, I still strongly recommend Zheng Qiang. Now, according to my Tang law, what Zheng Qiang committed is not too much to kill him ten thousand times. The matter under discussion. I suggest that the list of officials in Yangzhou should be drawn up as soon as possible, and personnel should be dispatched to stabilize the hearts of the people."

As soon as Wei Zheng finished speaking, Li Chongji felt unhappy.

Even Li Xiaogong was not happy, and immediately stood up and said: "Mr. Wei, although things in Yangzhou are urgent, but with the commanding army mansion, even if you want to mess up, you can't mess up. Besides, the book played by Xue Wu also made it clear, My nephew Li Chongyuan is in Xixiang right now, and he has even sent a lot of people to stabilize the situation in Yangzhou. Duke Wei, the responsibility needs to be shouldered, and Yangzhou officials also need to arrange, these two things can be handled at the same time."

What Li Xiaogong said was all about wanting to pull Fang Xuanling down from the position of servant.

after all.

The revenge of one's own brother must be avenged.

If Fang Xuanling could be pulled down from the position of servant, it would be regarded as a small revenge.

"Your Majesty, I also believe that someone needs to take responsibility for the affairs of Yangzhou. Since Mr. Fang has recommended Zheng Qiang to be the driver of Yangzhou one after another, then this matter should be handled by Mr. Fang." Changsun Wuji at this time But he stood up and got muddy.

And his muddy ones made Li Xiaogong, Wei Zheng and others all very surprised.

This is a good way.

At the same time, it is also a bad move.

Li Xiaogong looked at Changsun Wuji with a faint smile on his face.

The same is true for Li Chongji, and he no longer said anything, silently bowed to Li Shimin and then retreated to his position.

Take the bamboo shoots.

If one of his own people committed a crime, let Fang Xuanling handle it by himself.

Changsun Wuji's move can be said to have hurt his family.

This obviously meant that Fang Xuanling's prestige would be greatly lost in front of his disciples or disciples, and it would cause an additional hurdle in the hearts of his disciples.

If this matter is really going to grow into Sun Wuji's approach.

It is estimated that Fang Xuanling's status in Chang'an will drop a lot.

Even many scholars and talented people in Chang'an, or those who have always wanted to rely on Fang Xuanling, after hearing about this, they will weigh in their hearts whose house they choose to enter and become their disciples.

now.

Fang Xuanling's face turned blue, and after seeing Changsun Wuji cast a clamoring look, he stood up helplessly, bowed to Li Shimin and said: "I made a mistake, and I am willing to bear the responsibility."

Seeing that Fang Xuanling admitted his mistakes at court, the courtiers were even more willing to take the responsibility according to Changsun Wuji's words.

All the courtiers were delighted.

of course.

Those who are happy to bloom are all at odds with Fang Xuanling.

Most of them are generals.

Li Shimin looked at the courtiers, then looked at Fang Xuanling, and waved his hand, "Since Mr. Fang is willing to take on this responsibility, I will let you handle the affairs of Yangzhou."

As soon as Li Shimin's words fell, the matter was settled.

Li Chongji stood outside, and after hearing Li Shimin's words, his heart was really happy, and he looked at his uncle Li Xiaogong frequently.

At this time, Li Xiaogong stood there with a blank expression.

After the court meeting ended.

Li Chongji took some time, returned to his home, and reported the affairs of the court meeting to his mother.

When the old lady heard about it, she patted her thigh repeatedly and said, "Okay, that old fellow Fang Xuanling has today, okay, that's great. I think his reputation in Chang'an will drop to a freezing point in the future. Yong Yuan'er In other words, what is this called? This is called the reincarnation of heaven. This is called good will be rewarded with good, and evil will be rewarded with evil.

The old lady is happy.

And the happy ones were a little overjoyed.

Because of Fang Xuanling's deliberate arrangement, my husband sent my husband to a remote place like Yizhou to serve as an official.

Even Wan'er was not allowed to come back when she was born.

In the end, he died in Yizhou.

The old lady's hatred for Fang Xuanling was not just a single thing.

But now, after Fang Xuanling recommended Zheng Qiang to Yangzhou to serve as a special driver, what he committed was confused by his son Li Chongyuan, forcing him to deal with the person he repeatedly recommended.

In the end, whether to cut it off or exile, everything has to be up to Fang Xuanling to write a letter to the sage, make it public in the court, and distribute it to the world.

If Zheng Qiang and his son were cut off, the other officials would be exiled.

Fang Xuanling's reputation, in Chang'an, among the circle of scribes, must have been disgraced.

After the court meeting.

Fang Xuanling was indeed extremely passive.

even.

He also wanted to find Li Chongyuan's fault for the matter of Li Chongyuan's abandonment of the pick in Yangzhou, but in the end, no one mentioned the matter of Li Chongyuan's abandonment of the pick, and he even fell into this result.

Fang Xuanling was really helpless at this moment.

He is helpless, no matter how helpless he is, he has to deal with the affairs of Yangzhou well.

This is not.

After Li Shimin spoke, Fang Xuanling had to start moving.

The election of officials and other matters are constantly discussed by the court.

Most of the officials in Yangzhou have problems, and the recommendation of this official has become a controversial topic in the court again.

More than a hundred officials have to be selected.

At present, the Tang State is short of officials, which also makes the courtiers recommend their own people one after another.

Li Shimin didn't care, and he didn't want to ask more.

Li Shimin waved his hand as long as the personnel were appointed by the court, and threw them to Fang Xuanling.

If there is a problem with the personnel, everything is Fang Xuanling's fault.

at this time.

Li Chongyuan, who was far away in Xixiang, had no idea what happened in Chang'an.

but.

A few days ago, he wrote a letter back to Chang'an.

There are two letters.

A letter from home, a letter to play.

"Cousin, when do we have to wait? You see, the crops in this field are already being harvested, and the affairs in Yangzhou are almost over. Shouldn't it be time to go back to Chang'an?" Li Chongzhen only knew when he saw Li Chongyuan every day Drilling here, scurrying there, not in a hurry to go back to Chang'an at all, very anxious.

Li Chongzhen has been in Li Village, Li Chongyuan's fief recently, and Xizhang no longer goes there.

Being used to living in the city, he really doesn't like this kind of life in the countryside, let alone in the south.

In addition, he was not used to eating, so he had to tell Li Chongyuan about the last trip to Chang'an every day. No, at this moment, he complained to Li Chongyuan again.

Li Chongyuan was drawing something with a pen and paper at the moment, and raised his head to look at Li Chongzhen, "If you really can't stand it, then go hunting, don't just sway in front of me every day, if you keep swaying, my eyes will be dazzled by you spent."

Li Chongyuan didn't want to go back.

It's just that in the past two days, he has been thinking about the future of letting Xiang Si buy this land.

What he was drawing in his hand was the planning map of this land.

Docks, shipyards, arable land, and farms.

Of course, there are also the planting of camellia oleifera and so on.

This is what Li Chongyuan has thought of in recent days.

There are many things in the north that are inconvenient for Li Chongyuan to manipulate, but in Xixiang's own fief, Li Chongyuan is like a fish in water, handy, thinking about building a land that integrates many things on his own fief.

even.

He, Li Chongyuan, was thinking of building a few workshops on his fief.

Such as rice mills, oil mills, etc.

As for the equipment, he had to wait until he returned to Lizhuang to figure out a solution, but right now, Li Chongyuan already had an idea.

The future is everything.

And the source of everything may be his fiefdom in Xixiang.

There are too many things in Chang'an, and the troubles will increase.

On the other hand, in Xixiang, Li Chongyuan can do whatever he wants and do whatever he wants.

"Cousin, what you said is right. Let me go hunting in the mountains, don't you tell me to kill me? Yesterday I went hunting and saw a huge bear. If I didn't run fast and said Maybe I will be eaten." Li Chongzhen rolled his eyes back when he heard Li Chongyuan's words.

Li Chongyuan didn't answer the words, and looked at Li Chongzhen with a faint smile on his face.

The land of the West Country.

Located in the south of Foping County, if it is not blocked by the Han River, let alone bears, there may even be white ones.

As for bears, there are basically all over the southern part of the Tang Dynasty.

Of course, it is only available in this era. In modern times, if you want to see bears in the mountains and forests, it can only be said to be your luck.

Don't say it's a bear.

In Xixiang, apart from bears, there are also ferocious beasts such as tigers, wolves and leopards.

According to literature records, in the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty and the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty, there were two occurrences of tiger infestation. It can be seen how many tigers there are in this era.

While Li Chongzhen was complaining to Li Chongyuan, Xiang Si suddenly brought two strangers over.

Li Chongyuan looked over, his eyes were strange, and he was a little puzzled.

Xiangsi approached Li Chongyuan, "Xiao Langjun, the two of them said they came here to look for Xiao Langjun, and they said they came to Xixiang not far from Jizhou in the south to look for Xiao Langjun. I have already asked."

"What!!!" Li Chongyuan jumped up in shock when he heard the name of Jizhou, and looked at the two people in front of him in surprise.

Where is Jizhou?

That was Li Chongyuan's hometown in his previous life.

Li Chongyuan was not surprised when he heard that two strangers said they were from Jizhou.

Li Chongyuan, who has been thinking about his hometown in his previous life, once he heard the name of Jizhou, he didn't care who the other party was, and even interrupted Xiang Si's words.

Seeing Li Chongyuan's astonishment, the two of them were a little confused, but they still responded cautiously: "I have met Li County Uncle, and the two of us came to Xixiang from our hometown in Jizhou to protect Li under the name of our family teachers. county uncle."

"Wait, who is your master? The Jizhou you are talking about is the Jizhou on the Jiangnan West Road?" After hearing the words, Li Chongyuan didn't know, but he was thinking about his hometown in his previous life. When he saw two strangers say they were from Jizhou, he naturally wanted to confirm. of.
