The heavens from Bailuyuan

Chapter 330 Entering the court as a prime minister (full order)

"After returning to Chang'an, if the princess is dissatisfied with Chi Dezu's praise..."

"This commander can also play the saint, so that the princess and Zanpu can reconcile!"

Bai Gui sighed.

Now that the Tubo Kingdom is destroyed, there is not much obstacle to Princess Jincheng's reconciliation.With his current power, he came back with a big victory and helped to make this little request, Li Longji would not disagree with this matter.

These things are nothing to him, but to Princess Jincheng, they are fate-changing events.

Although Princess Jincheng is a princess, there is a big gap between the princesses. If Princess Jincheng is really favored in the palace, she will not be sent to Tubo Kingdom for marriage, and her father, King Fen, will not send her so easily. go out.

Just looking at the treatment of Li Longji's other sisters, you can know a thing or two.

Although there is no shortage of prosperity and wealth, there is a big difference in treatment between the two younger sisters, Princess Jinxian and Princess Yuzhen.Princess Jinxian was able to enter the palace late at night to ask to see Li Longji, but for the other princesses, the chances of entering the palace to meet the saint were so scarce.

And the princess and Li... were very common in the Tang Dynasty.

Li Yuan has nineteen daughters in total, including Princess Gaomi, Princess Changguang, Princess Fangling, and Princess Anding, who have all divorced and remarried; Li Shimin has 21 daughters, Princess Xiangcheng, Princess Nanping, Princess Suian, and Princess Chengyang. Li Zhi's daughter, Princess Taiping, and the princesses of Xincheng have all divorced and remarried; Li Zhi's daughter, Princess Taiping, is not alone, and there are not a few daughters of other emperors who remarried.

"My concubine, thank you Linyi County Lord..."

A gleam of joy flashed across Princess Jincheng's face as she thanked her.

She married Tubo Zanpu, and it is not so easy to remarry. To a certain extent, Tubo's people's hearts must be stabilized. Although this seems to be nonsense, she and Li Longji are not close, and there is no influence in the court In other words, this kind of nonsense can really gain a foothold.

"My concubine has already hosted a banquet in Tubo King City, and invited the Lord of Linyi County to enter..."

Princess Jincheng invited her.

She married into Tu Bo, but she brought along a lot of maids and servants.

Tubo is about to perish, which is bad news for Tubo Zanpu. She has lost her ancestors and needs to go out of the city to accept surrender, but for her, Tubo country was destroyed by the Tang Dynasty, and her treatment will never be different. Poor, so I asked the servants to prepare a banquet early to welcome Master Wang.

……

The Tubo kingdom was not destroyed in a hurry. The two Tang troops swept the caves and wiped out almost all the forces of the Tubo royal court on the snow-covered plateau.In the end, he led a large army to Tubo King City, forcing Chide Zu Zan Zanpu out of the city to accept the surrender.

Therefore, there are not many domestic affairs handled by Tubo.

After Bai Gui stayed for a few days, he took the exhausted Tang army and prepared to return to the court.

Accompanied by him were the Prime Minister Tubo and Tubo officials who were escorted, Tubo Zanpu who was under house arrest, and Princess Jincheng who was honored as the guest of honor.

The prime minister is the head of all the Tubo officials, equivalent to the prime minister of the Central Plains Dynasty.

As for Tubo's domestic affairs, it is the supervising army sent from Chang'an to check each other and prevent the tail from getting too big.

on the march.

in a luxurious carriage.

"The county magistrate came to Chang'an to report on his duties, and he was rewarded for his merits. It is estimated that the title will be made a state duke, but... I don't know how the sage will arrange the county magistrate's future appointment."

"As the saying goes, generals enter the prime minister, but now the Zhongshu Ling, the six ministers, the left and right servants of the Shangshu province, and the servants of the menxia province... all have capable ministers, and the county magistrate enters the court. Possibly under the crowd..."

Yang Xuanyan's eyes flickered slightly, he glanced at Xue Na beside him, and said.

The system of three provinces and six ministries, as a rule, the chief officials of these various departments plus the title of Ping Zhang Shi are Zai Fu.And Bai Gui was originally a fifth-rank Zhongshu Sheren, and now he has wiped out two countries. He has one of the best military achievements in the world, and his aura is unmatched by others. Even the emperor must avoid some edge.

According to common sense, a famous general like Bai Gui who has made great achievements should be like Li Weigong and Li Jing.

You know, the emperor at the time of Li Jing was Taizong Li Shimin, and Li Jing was still like this, let alone the current emperor Li Longji. Although Li Longji was wise and powerful, he was not a little bit worse than Li Shimin before he took the throne.And Bai Gui's military achievements and prestige in the army are not weaker than Li Jing in the early Tang Dynasty.

But obviously, Yang Xuanyan, a subordinate official, knew that Bai Gui didn't intend to thank guests behind closed doors, but was interested in getting acquainted.

"Although I have lived in Tubo for a long time, I also know that Jinshi in the Jinshi Department is called a white-clothed minister, not to mention Zhongshu Sheren's qualifications, it is only natural for the country's prime minister..."

Princess Jincheng knelt beside Bai Gui, glanced at Xue Na with her beautiful eyes, and also chimed in.

She is also a person who knows how to repay her kindness.

Now that Bai Gui aspires to take the position of Prime Minister, she does not hesitate to help and say a few good words at this time.

There was silence for a while.

Bai Gui took a sip of the tea soup made by Princess Jincheng. It was the Tang Dynasty, and Lu Yu, the tea sage, hadn’t invented fried tea yet, so the brewed tea was basically tea soup. The tea brewed by the person who made the tea is not very unpleasant to drink, and has a unique flavor.

After drinking the tea soup, he glanced at Xue Na's expression, and asked softly, "I don't know what General Xue thinks?"

Ever since Wu Zhao vigorously promoted the imperial examination system, it was a phenomenon at this time that the prime minister was basically a person with a background in the imperial examination, and among the various subjects of the imperial examination, Jinshi was the most important.It is no longer the normal state that military generals can go out and enter the prime minister during the Taizong and Gaozong dynasties.

These are unspoken rules, not stated on the surface.

But that's pretty much the case with crowds.

And his qualifications and credits are enough, more than enough.

The only thing to worry about... is that the military achievements are too great, to a dreadful level.But if he didn't have military merits, he would have to be at least 50 or [-] years old if he wanted to get to the position he is today, or the position of the prime minister.

Therefore, choosing this path has advantages and disadvantages.

"If the county magistrate wants to be the prime minister, Na... will definitely do his best to help."

Xue Na sighed deeply, then cupped his hands and said.

Bai Gui was very kind to him, not only did he plead for mercy in the second year of Kaiyuan, but in the past few years, he was also praised as the coach when he was awarding merits.

If he doesn't agree today, not only will his conscience be uneasy, but he will also be despised by the world.

"Dayi kills relatives" is not so easy to kill!

What's more, although Bai Gui intends to be the prime minister, but he has no rebellious heart, he can only be regarded as greedy for power and position, and he agrees to help, which is not a violation of loyalty.

"With General Xue's words..."

"I feel more at ease."

Bai Gui said with a smile on his tense face.

In this battle, apart from him, Xue Ne contributed the most.Xue Na's support for him is equivalent to the support of both Tang armies. If the imperial court refuses to let him be the prime minister, it is equivalent to cutting off the way for generals to become prime ministers.

Li Jing is not able to endure for the country, and ordinary generals do not have such a deep understanding of righteousness.
