Traveling through the early Tang Dynasty starts with hanging

Chapter 667 The East Palace

In a real sense, the time to devote himself to the East Palace is not short, and Pei Shiju has already given up trying to persuade the prince to do something to Li Shan.

On the one hand, Pei Shiju didn't have a reason to do it, and even Pei Ji still doesn't know the inside story, and on the other hand, he can feel the prince's attitude towards Li Shan... After all, Li Shanming is not involved in seizing the heir, and he is trusted by saints , and can hook up with Princess Pingyang who is in charge of the Beiya Imperial Army.

Coupled with the three defeats of the Turks this time, the prince may use Li Shan to suppress King Qin who wants to return to the battlefield in the future.

To get rid of this son, two conditions are required, one is that King Qin must be destroyed, or the crown prince can be enthroned, and the other is that at a critical moment, the relationship between King Qin and Li Shan must be revealed to the world.

At that time, the crown prince will definitely be indignant, and if he joins forces with Pei Ji, even if there is Princess Pingyang, he will definitely be able to wipe out this son, so as to avoid future troubles.

At this time, Wei Ting who was beside him suddenly said: "Huai Ren returns to court, I wonder what position His Majesty will confer on him?"

Li Jiancheng shook his head, "I discussed with my father yesterday, and it was really difficult to make a decision."

After a pause, Li Jiancheng looked at Zheng Shanguo, "What do you think, Duke Xingyang?"

Zheng Shanguo said with a smile: "On the selection of Cao, the prince's inquiry is really a blind question."

Everyone smiled and looked at Pei Shiju. Cao Qigui was selected in the former Sui Dynasty. Although he was not in charge of the official department in this dynasty, he chose someone well... Wasn't it Pei Shiju who recommended Li Huairen to serve as Dai County last year?

Even though Pei Shiju was thick-skinned, he also felt that his face was a little hot. After thinking about it for a while, he said softly, "I'm afraid I'm a little gentler than Yi Zongzheng Shaoqing?"

Li Jiancheng nodded and said: "If it's just a great victory in Yanmen, Zongzheng Shaoqing would be suitable to appease Yuan Junzhang, but now that Huairen has defeated the Turks, he needs to be promoted. After all, he can't be promoted again."

"It's really difficult to arrange it properly." Pei Shiju frowned and said, "Maybe we can take twelve guards in vain?"

"General Zuo Wuwei is currently vacant." Wang Gui nodded, "The King of Handan has made great contributions to the country, and he will return to Beijing to recuperate. He will also lead General Zuo Wuwei for future use."

Li Jiancheng thought for a long time and shook his head slightly, "Father mentioned yesterday that when Huairen returns to Beijing, he can choose."

Wei Ting said with a smile: "Huiren is slippery and doesn't hold back, let him choose...I'm afraid he will sneak into the Imperial Medical Office again."

Li Jiancheng smiled and didn't say anything else. Although Li Shan is young, he is a smart person. It would be a bit stupid to stand in line in this era... and this son is really useless in winning the heir. Will suffice.

"The King of Handan returns to the court..." Zheng Shanguo asked another key question along the way, "The history of the acting governor?"

Many staff members frowned, because just today, His Majesty Li Yuan praised Handan King Li Shan for making good use of people in the early court... Everyone knew the meaning of this. Even if they stick to Guji Town in the end, they also have Zhang Shigui and Xue Wanche under their command, one on each side.

Wang Gui guessed that Li Jing would probably do the same in the future, being impartial...the position of Governor Shi of that generation may not be available.

Among the current state officials, Simar Zhu Yichen and Lu Chengji, the secretary and military officer, are under the Eastern Palace. Don't mention that Zhang Gongjin is the general of the King of Qin.

Prince Li Jiancheng also understands this truth, but he is unwilling. After all, the two most critical positions below, the Dai County Magistrate who sits in Xia City, and the Nao County Magistrate who controls the north-south hub, are all passed by the King of Qin, and one is Li Kai. , one is Li Yiyan.

Moreover, although there is Xue Wanche in the Daizhou Army, Zhang Shigui and Xue Wanjun are on the side of the Prince Qin's Mansion, which is also an advantage.

Pei Shiju's thoughts moved, and he wrote lightly: "I heard that the King of Handan will return to the court, and all the direct descendants will follow him back to Beijing?"

"That's not true." Wang Gui said, "Su Dingfang, the general of Zuowuwei Zhonglang, Zhang Zhongjian, the Shuozhou soldier Cao Canjun, and He Liu, the deputy commander of the Shuozhou cavalry, returned to the court with King Handan. The latter two were Yuan Junzhang's old troops. Liu Shirang, Duke of Yang County, stayed in Shuozhou."

Wei Ting heard the meaning, and said, "Wei Xuancheng is still in Daizhou."

Li Jiancheng hesitated for a while before nodding his head and said, "Then let Xuancheng have a try."

When Li Shan returns to court, there will indeed be some vacant positions below... You can not get it, but you can't fall into the hands of the second brother. This is the bottom line.

Pei Shiju was thinking in his heart, if the crown prince wanted to be robbed, would King Qin watch helplessly?
If not, it might make things difficult for Li Shan.

In fact, Pei Shiju himself knew that it was not too difficult to solve this kind of thing... But the old man was willing to do it if he could embarrass that fellow.

At this very moment, in the hall of Cui's mansion, Li Zhaode, Zhang Wenguan, and Fang Yizhi were listening to Cui Xinxin's misty tone of instruction... Cui Xinxin's pent-up breath was still there.

In fact, Fang Yizhi, an honest person, was listening, and Li Zhaode and Zhang Wenguan were flirting with each other... It's time to have fun.

After all, Li Zhaode should call Cui Xin a cousin, and leave tomorrow to go north, come here today and ask if he wants to bring anything... He knows that Zhu's family is in Cui's residence.

Unexpectedly, this place is preparing to send Zhou and Xiaoman north to take care of Li Shan tomorrow, Cui Xin simply called Zhang Wenguan and Fang Yizhi, and the three waves went on the road together.

After a long while, Cui Xin stopped talking, thinking that his wife specially picked two maids to follow him... I don't know what it means.

It's a pity, those two maids are good looking!
Li Zhaode said regretfully: "It's a pity that brother Xiaoqing can't leave Beijing, but he specially invited a famous doctor, and we will set off together tomorrow."

Fang Yizhi and Zhang Wenguan, one is a nerd, the other is still young, Cui Xin, sitting at the top, glanced at Li Zhaode, thinking that you still have such thoughts, and you will have a headache when you arrive in Daizhou, not to mention that Wang Renbiao is not qualified Get involved in this.

In the backyard, Mrs. Cui could already stand up and leaned against the head of the bed. Mrs. Zhu and Mrs. Zhang were sitting on the edge of the bed, and the other was sitting on a round stool. Mrs. Zhou and Xiaoman stood aside with their hands down.

"Don't worry." Mrs. Zhu glanced at Mrs. Zhang and emphasized her tone, "The two of them have learned a little bit about taking care of Da Lang Wuyu."

Mrs. Zhang understands this, and Mrs. Zhu is making sure that she won't make any foolish things... In fact, Mrs. Zhang also knows that she won't. It's just that my husband said it during the day and at night...

"Then please." Miss Cui's voice was clear and sweet.

Mrs. Zhou and Xiaoman saluted in unison... This is the mistress of the future, and she is also the mistress who burns incense and prays for the husband and takes care of the widowed mother.

Of course, the most important thing is that the relationship between Miss Cui and Mrs. Zhu is as close as mother and daughter.

Mrs. Zhu glanced over, thinking that what her husband was worried about wasn't too far off the mark. Although she wasn't considered beautiful, she was extremely rare, and she was even better than the two maids she picked.
