Emperor Zhenguan

Chapter 200 Studying in the Ministry of Industry
In the final battle, Li Zhiyun did not let Yu Chigong go to the battlefield to face his old club.This made Yu Chigong very grateful to Li Zhiyun, and at the same time, he was a little worried.

Worried that Li Zhiyun doesn't trust him.

He is straight-hearted and doesn't know how to twist and turn, so he found Du Ruhui and told him his worries.

Then, Du Ruhui found another opportunity to tell Li Zhiyun.

In a few days, when Li Zhiyun took Yu Chigong to inspect the camp, he inadvertently said: "Jingde, although the head of the horse army of Chu Palace has Shubao, there is still one person missing. Would you like to come?"

After staying in Chu Wangjun for a period of time, he basically figured out some things.The most trusted generals of the King of Chu are Xie Shufang and Duan Zhixuan, followed by Qin Shubao, Luo Shixin, Li Junxian and others.

Xie Shufang and Duan Zhixuan followed the King of Chu earlier, so they should be treated like this. Qin Qiong was able to get the post of horse army chief because of his military exploits.

Now, the King of Chu is promoting himself, and the trace of uneasiness in Yuchi Gong's heart has quietly disappeared.

"The final general is willing to die for the king!"

Cheng Yaojin, who was patrolling the camp, immediately yelled: "My lord, Heitan was given such a high position only a few days after he surrendered, I don't accept it!"

Yu Chigong blushed, and wanted to refute but didn't dare to refute, because Cheng Yaojin wasn't aimlessly this time.

"Yizhen, if you are a respectful person, this king can trust you." Li Zhiyun said, followed by: "Just as this king believed in you at that time, you are all my wings."

wing?

Cheng Yaojin was taken aback.

After finishing speaking, Li Zhiyun muttered to himself, Cheng Yaojin and Yu Chigong should be regarded as black wings.

After a few days in Jinyang, Li Shimin ordered that the two clan generals, Li Shenfu and Li Shuliang, lead troops to recover Mayi and other places, and at the same time, let them escort Pei Ju all the way to Turkic.

This move was beautifully done, and Li Zhiyun secretly speculated that it should be the idea of ​​the second brother's think tanks.

Things have developed to the present, and everyone basically understands that the Crouching Dragons of these clans can't beat or scold them, because of Lao Li's love, they must also be protected.

The northern counties that lost Liu Wuzhou were successively recovered by Li Shenfu and Li Shuliang's army within a month.

Since then, the Liu Wuzhou separatist forces that threatened Taiyuan have completely collapsed.In the future, if there is another crisis in Taiyuan, it will be the threat from the grassland.

When Liu Wuzhou fell and the news spread that Dou Jiande had retreated to Hebei, the separatist forces in the world shook violently.

Li Tang's fierceness this time made people dumbfounded. It was nothing to defeat Dou Jiande, but it was really fierce to kill Liu Wuzhou with the help of the Turkic people.

All of a sudden, Wang Shichong, Xiao Xian, Li Zitong, Shen Faxing and others were on guard.Although everyone knew that Li Tang, who was based in Guanlong, was very powerful, no one thought that Li Tang's real fighting power would be so strong. After fighting for several months, he insisted on not giving the Turkic people face.In the end, Liu Wuzhou was wiped out.

If it is the most nervous, it must be Wang Shichong, because he offended Li Tang the most.Therefore, a new round of preparations for the battle in Luoyang is in full swing.

In order to prevent Li Tang from attacking Luoyang, Wang Shichong increased taxes and forced the people to join the army. For a while, there were complaints in Luoyang.

On the other side, the three brothers Li Shimin, Li Zhiyun, and Li Yuanji returned to the court in victory, and Lao Li rewarded the three brothers generously.

Among them, Li Shimin made outstanding contributions, so naturally he received the most rewards, followed by Li Zhiyun, and the remaining Li Yuanji was favored by old Li.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Li Yuanji's defense of Taiyuan is not credit at all, but Lao Li insisted on giving Li Yuanji money and rewarding some property, and everyone can only hold their noses to recognize it.

Later, the prince suggested that King Qi should continue to guard Taiyuan, but it is not necessary to stay in Taiyuan. Xia Houduan and Yu Wenxin can be used to guard Taiyuan. Once Taiyuan is in an emergency, King Qi can go there immediately.Now that Liu Wuzhou is dead, only the Turks can threaten Taiyuan. Li Yuan neither agrees nor opposes the prince's proposal.

Afterwards, Xia Houduan found Li Yuan and complained, saying that he was too old and weak to take on such a heavy responsibility.

Li Yuan naturally disagreed, and he also knew why Xia Houduan resigned, so he comforted Xia Houduan with good words and rewards, and then he comforted Xia Houduan.

After this incident, Li Yuan also realized that it was inappropriate for Li Yuanji to guard Taiyuan alone. He thought about it, and finally decided to send several confidant generals to guard it.

Li Yuanji still retains the position of governor of Li Yuanji's merged state, because he is not at ease in handing over the military power to others, and only in the hands of his own son can people feel at ease.

Li Shimin is also one of the contenders for the power to guard Taiyuan, but he was rejected by Li Yuan as soon as he proposed it at the court meeting.

After getting rid of Liu Wuzhou, Lao Li's appetite became very big, so he called four brothers to discuss the next step to make Luoyang's Wang Shichong.

But the prince said no, the food and grass can't keep up, so we have to wait.

Li Yuan approached Dou Jing, Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, and after some inquiries, he found that there was indeed not enough food and grass, so he could only hold his nose and wait for the autumn harvest in September.

The turmoil in the court, with the defeat of Liu Wuzhou, and the temporary suspension of Tang's external expansion, became fierce.

Among them, it is mainly the struggle between the Prince's line and the King of Qin's line.

As the king of Qin made great achievements again, the courtiers of the king of Qin's family couldn't be more rigid in their speech, and they opened their mouths and kept saying that the king of Qin was right.

In the political affairs hall, following the return of King Qin, Dou Wei, Dou Kang, and Chen Shuda also vaguely stabilized the crown prince.

Although the crown prince has Liu Wenjing and King Qi, they are not as many as King Qin.

As for Chu Wang Li Zhiyun, most of the time he does not discuss politics in the political affairs hall.After the great victory over Liu Wuzhou, Li Yuan not only granted him a honorary title, but also appointed him as the minister of the Ministry of Industry, and stayed in the Ministry of Industry to observe politics and study.

Lao Li felt that the five sons were too stupid in political affairs, and planned to let Li Zhiyun learn slowly from the grassroots.

Li Zhiyun has no objection to this either. Although he is currently working in the Ministry of Industry, once a major event happens in the Zhengshitang, Li Yuan will definitely call him over.

Moreover, as the smell of gunpowder in Zhengshitang became more and more intense, Li Zhiyun actually didn't want to get involved.

In addition, he was willing to go to the Ministry of Industry mainly because he wanted to settle the matter of kerosene.Without his personal experience, the Ministry of Industry's livestock would never be able to handle it.Now that foreign wars are frequent, the more strategic materials such as kerosene, the better.

There are a lot of fire oil mines found in Bashu, and the raw materials are available, so there is no need to worry about making them.

Working in the Ministry of Industry, no one dared to show off to Li Zhiyun, and they all fully cooperated with Li Zhiyun.Even the samurai Xun, Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry, was very cooperative.Coupled with the help of his grandfather-in-law Yang Shigui, he was able to get along like a duck to water.

Therefore, Li Zhiyun did not encounter many intrigues.However, Li Zhiyun secretly learned a lot of useful things about the basic operation of the Ministry of Industry and the detailed rules for personnel exchanges.

In the past, he was rooted in the army and seldom operated in the officialdom, so he didn't quite understand some of the routines in each.Li Zhiyun benefited a lot from observing politics at the Ministry of Industry this time.
