Datang Nongwang

Chapter 788

Li Chongyuan thought about the Judicial Temple all the way, and returned to his home not long after.

Li Chongyuan, who got out of the carriage, looked at Tang Li and the others and said: "You didn't have lunch, so go to the Yingbin Building to eat something casually, and tell Xiang Zhong to keep my account. If this happens in the future, , meals and the like, you all go to the Yingbin Building to eat. Later, I will go to the Yingbin Building. "

As it is today, the court meeting didn't end until noon.

Moreover, Li Chongyuan was kept by Li Shimin for half an hour.

This also made Tang Li and the others stay outside the palace all the time, without taking a sip of food or even a sip of water.

This is rare, but the belly is the big deal.

After Tang Li and the others got the words, they nodded, and after Li Chongyuan entered the house, they went directly to the Yingbin Building.

Meals, for those who have been following Li Chongyuan for a long time, do not have high requirements, as long as they can eat enough.

If it can be eaten well, it will be more perfect.

On meals.

For example, in Lizhuang, they will solve it by themselves.

In Lizhuang, there was a kitchen dedicated to the guards.

When I was in Chang'an, I basically ate cooks made by the cook in the mansion.

As for the food in the Yingbin Building, they wanted to taste it often, but they also knew that before Li Chongyuan spoke, they would have to spend money to eat in the Yingbin Building.

Not to mention that they asked for money to eat at the Yingbin Building, even Li Chongyuan had to pay for his own meals.

Although Li Chongyuan opened the Yingbin Building, in order to keep the accounts clear, Li Chongyuan made a rule that anyone who goes to eat has to pay.

If it is inconvenient for elders to collect money, it can only be charged to Li Chongyuan's account.

But in today's situation, Tang Li and the others sent Li Chongyuan back to their home, and it was inconvenient to eat at their home, so they could only go to the Yingbin Building.

Li Chongyuan returned to his home.

As soon as this leg entered the house, the person in charge ran over, "Xiao Langjun, the old lady asks you to go to the hall as soon as you return to the mansion."

"What's the matter? Is there something important?" Li Chongyuan was a little puzzled.

The steward nodded slightly and replied, "It seems to be about Mr. Xiao Lang's promotion."

wipe.

When Li Chongyuan heard the manager's words, he immediately became unhappy with his elder brothers.

Before leaving the palace, Li Chongyuan confessed specifically not to tell the old lady about this matter, but he confessed honestly again in a blink of an eye.

With the unhappy Li Chongyuan, he quickly walked towards the hall.

When Li Chongyuan entered the hall, he saw that the whole family was there, except Wan'er who was accompanying Li Yuan in Lizhuang, everyone was there.

"Aniang, my baby greets you." Li Chongyuan looked at the expressions of the crowd as if there was something strange, he didn't know the specific situation in his heart, but he bowed first.

The old lady who had a strange face, when she saw Li Chongyuan came back, she immediately forced a smile on her face, "Yuan'er is back, come here quickly."

"Aniang, I see that everyone is here. Is this a matter of discussion?" Li Chongyuan had some guesses, approached the old lady and asked.

Although the old lady had a smile on her face, after being asked by Li Chongyuan, she let out a long breath and said, "Yuan'er, tell Aniang what you think about the matter discussed in the courtroom today."

When the old lady asked this question, Li Chongyuan had already guessed it, fearing that someone might have missed the point.

Li Chongyuan looked at the three Li Chongji brothers, seeing his second brother's eyes dodging, he suspected in his heart that he had leaked the news.

Feel helpless.

You can't beat your second brother.

'Forget it, anyway, I can't hide this matter for a long time, and the Holy Majesty insists on letting me be the minister of the Judiciary Temple. Even if my family keeps it secret, someone outside will still reveal the news. '

Li Chongyuan understands this matter.

"Aniang, although the child has ideas about this matter, the Holy Majesty insists that I can't do anything about it. Besides, in the past few days, so many things have happened in Beijing, the Holy Majesty was forced to use a compromise method to avoid today's court. Of course, this is the Holy Majesty’s love for the boy, so he has no choice but to do this. However, please rest assured, Auntie, even if the boy becomes the Secretary of the Judiciary, it will not be long, at most it will be one or two years That's all. I have self-knowledge, and I know how capable I am. To be able to take up the post of Secretary of Agriculture is already my highest ability. If I take up the post of Minister of Justice, I am afraid that I am not qualified." Li Chongyuan said to himself Cognitive reply.

After hearing this, the old lady nodded in satisfaction, "Yuan'er, you are so smart that you can clearly understand the truth in it. If my son grows up for another 20 years, the Secretary of the Judiciary will do it. My son can be the secretary. Mr. Nong is already at the top, and now he is appointed as the Minister of Justice, I am afraid that he will become the target of public criticism. Since the Holy Majesty insists, my son can't push it away even if he wants to, then my son will first follow the Holy Majesty's wishes and do it. This Minister of Justice. However, Auntie has some persuasion."

"Aniang also asks for instructions." Li Chongyuan understood what the old lady meant and bowed to ask.

The old lady looked at her other sons, then turned to Li Chongyuan and said: "Although your elder brother is stable, he is soft-tempered and not cautious enough. He can only be conservative, not as radical as you, Yuaner. Your second brother is hot-tempered. Your third brother is also timid. Yuaner, you must be ahead of your elder brother, second brother and third brother in your official career. Therefore, A Niang has nothing to ask for. I just hope that you can be more prudent and walk more steadily in the future .When the time is right, help your eldest brother and the others. As brothers, help each other, so that my Li parents can continue to prosper."

"Although Yuan'er is radical, you have also been taught by your uncle. Over the years, you have become as stable as an elder. But in some things, Yuan'er is still so radical. When the time comes, you have to stabilize your temper. Discuss more with your elder brother and the others. Even if you can't do it, at least you have more people and more heads. A Niang doesn't ask for anything else, I just hope that you brothers will help you."

"Also, you have been an official for many years, all these years"

The old lady said a lot.

Everything in the words indicated that he hoped that after Li Chongyuan reached a high position, he would not forget his brother.

Of course, the old lady's words were also warning Li Chongyuan not to be too radical.

Li Chongyuan knew it in his heart, and at the same time he also knew the old lady's kindness.

"What A Niang said, the child understands and understands it. Besides, when I left the palace just now, I was still thinking about taking this opportunity to find a good place for eldest brother and the others in Judicial Temple or Sinong Temple. The Holy Majesty said, Although the officials of Sinong Temple have problems, they can't deal with too many people, they can only do enough. But I think about it, the third brother can take the post of director of the Jiucheng Palace of Sinong Temple. The third brother is not busy with many things in the East Palace. If you can take the position of director of Jiucheng Palace, you can also take charge of the affairs and pave the way for the future. Second brother, I really can’t think of any good position, so I can only plan for it later. As for the eldest brother, if A Niang allows, I can go to Judicial Temple to serve Supervisor." Li Chongyuan was ready to seek benefits for his brother.

There is a saying that if one person attains the Tao, the chicken and the dog will ascend to heaven.

Although Li Chongyuan was only promoted from the second rank to the Minister of Judicial Temple this time, this is already at the top.

Further up, it is the second-rank post.

But there is basically no such post as a second-rank post.

Shangshuling, or Daxingtai Shangshuling.

Li Shimin once held these two official positions. After Li Shimin took office, these two official positions were abolished.

There is a saying.

Who dares to take the official position that Li Shimin has done?

What about Cong Yipin and Zheng Yipin?

These two grades exist, but they have no real power, they are just titles.

From the first-rank position, Prince Taishi, Prince Taibao, Prince Taifu, and General Hussars.

Zhengyipin, Taishi, Taibao, Taifu, Taiwei, Sikong, Situ, Tiance Admiral.

These official positions are all titles without any real power.

And this Tiance Admiral, Li Shimin's former military position, was immediately abolished.

After hearing this, the old lady was relieved, "Yuan Er, you can think of helping your elder brothers, A Niang is very happy. However, Xu Er is already the prince Si Yilang, so how can he go to Si Nong Temple as a prisoner? I'm afraid it won't work."

"Aniang, don't worry, leave this matter to me." Li Chongyuan said with assurance.

The old lady does not doubt that she has him, and she thinks that if her third son can be appointed as the director of the Jiucheng Palace in Sinong Temple, this is a step forward, "Then you said just now that you want your elder brother to serve as the supervisor in the Judiciary Temple Officer? What grade is this prison officer? How about the specifics?"

Judiciary Temple is a newly established temple, and it is normal for the old lady not to understand its structure.

What's more, except for the position of Shaoqing in Li Shimin Judicial Temple, all official positions are arranged by Li Chongyuan himself.

As for its structure, Li Shimin didn't ask about it, and left it to Li Chongyuan to handle it.

Naturally, when Li Chongyuan said that he wanted Li Chongji to serve as a supervisor in Judicial Temple, the old lady naturally didn't understand.

"Aniang, the Judiciary Temple is a newly established temple. The supervisors are also what the Holy Majesty said. The Yushitai and the Secretary Department sent officials to the Judicial Temple as supervisors. The Judicial Temple is from the second-rank yamen. This supervisor The position of an official is very important, and the grade is not low, at least it is from the fourth rank, or the lower rank. Boy wants the elder brother to use Yushitai to enter the Judicial Temple as the supervisor, no one can say anything, and the boy also Someone of our own needs to enter the Judiciary Temple." Li Chongyuan replied.

After the old lady heard the words, she said with joy on her face: "If this is the case, then your elder brother will have to accept your affection."

"Aniang, how can you accept someone's affection between brothers. However, just now I thought of a good position, which is just suitable for the second brother, and I don't know if I can get this position." Li Chongyuan hurriedly crossed.

The old lady said that Li Chongji wanted to accept Li Chongyuan's love, Li Chongyuan was so embarrassed.

Li Chongxuan, who was standing not far away, heard that he was still there, and immediately showed joy on his face, and asked anxiously: "Fourth brother, what is your official position?"

The old lady glared at the sound, and Li Chongxuan shrank his head immediately.

"The Judiciary Temple wants to build a law enforcement agency, and the order of the law enforcement agency is the post of the fifth rank. But if the eldest brother enters the Judicial Temple, the second brother may not be able to enter again, so I don't know if this will be possible or not. Although the judicial Although the temple is newly built, the boy can't really give all the benefits to his family, otherwise, the people in the court will definitely have opinions. Even the Holy One will also have opinions." Li Chongyuan explained.

The old lady nodded, "Forget about it."

Our family chatted from the afternoon to the evening.

Li Chongyuan's belly was already growling non-stop.

The whole family chatted all afternoon, and the things that should be said and considered were basically not left behind.

Everyone in the family is very happy, the only one who is not happy is Li Chongxuan who has not benefited.

no way.

Li Chongyuan couldn't make any guarantees, even the old lady said that it was over.

In the evening, Li Chongyuan, who was so hungry and uncomfortable, left his home, bought some snacks casually, ate them while sitting in the carriage, and rushed to Lizhuang.

So many things have happened in the court today, and Li Chongyuan has been in Chang'an for several days, it is really time to go back to Lizhuang and talk to Li Yuan.

On the third day, Li Chongyuan returned to Chang'an City and went to Si Nong Temple to deal with the affairs of Si Nong Temple.

On this day, the officials who had been imprisoned for several days had gone back to their homes as early as yesterday.

These people worried for a day with fear and fear, and when they saw that nothing happened, they went back to Yagong to do their work.

However, this time when they came back, they didn't dare to make any changes, and their hands and feet were still very quick.

But on this day, people from the Ministry of Punishment came and took the heads of the various departments and prisons, as well as several deputies, and shocked the various departments and prisons.

"Lijun King, what should we do next? The Taicang Office has been taken down, and the Taicang Office is in the air, with no owner. It's deserted." Wang Ting came to the general office of Sinong Temple.

Li Chongyuan was about to leave, he said indifferently: "I have something important to do today, and I don't have time to take care of the affairs of the yamen, you go and find Xu Da, he has already returned to the yamen."

"This is Li Junwang?" Wang Ting saw that Li Chongyuan was not wearing an official uniform, and was curious.

Li Chongyuan sighed and said helplessly: "I can't help it. My mother always thinks that I am too old and says that this year I have to get married no matter what. No, arrange for me to meet a little lady today. It's okay if I don't see you, otherwise , my mother must go to the Yamen to arrest me and go back."

"It's time for you, Prince Li, to get married. Look at me, I already have four children. If Prince Li gets married, please be sure to tell me that when the time comes, Ting will accompany you with a heavy gift. Li Junwang, you go to meet the bride." Wang Ting heard that Li Chongyuan was going to meet the young lady, and then he realized that Li Chongyuan was in his twenties and hadn't married yet.

Put it in the moment.

At Li Chongyuan's age, there is almost no one who has not married yet.

The boys in the farmers' homes basically get married at the age of 16, and become fathers at the age of [-] or [-].

Even some men from official families will get married and become fathers.

No matter how late it is, they will get married before the age of 20 and complete major events in life.

On the other hand, among the brothers Li Chongyuan, none of them got married at the age of 20.

After all, official matchmakers are not vegetarians.

And Li Chongyuan didn't get married at such an age, there was no other way, the rules were like this.

If the eldest is not married, the second will not be married.

Li Chongji missed the marriage of the two younger brothers, and also indirectly missed the marriage of Li Chongyuan.

Of course, apart from this reason, Li Chongyuan had his own reasons for not getting married at such a young age.

Farewell to Wang Ting, Li Chongyuan got into the carriage and drove straight to his home. On the way, he kept thinking about what the little lady in his aunt's lineup looked like, what was her figure, and what was her character.
