Emperor Zhenguan

Chapter 464 They refused to phase [thanks to 20190713241 for the reward]

The transfer order was issued the next day. Samurai Xun packed his luggage disheartened and took his family to Yizhou to take up his post. He left Chang'an and looked back at the majestic Chang'an city for the last time.I knew that I might never return to Chang'an to serve as an official in my life.

He couldn't help but sigh. In the past, following the sage's army, he thought it would be a harbinger of the rise of the family, but he didn't expect that because of bad eyesight, he didn't take care of the relationship with the prince Li Zhiyun in advance, and all the previous efforts were in vain.

Changan Fenghua, when will we see you again?

I'm afraid it's far away.

After the samurai Xun resigned, Li Zhiyun quickly appointed Yang Shigui as Minister of the Ministry of Industry.Its speed is so fast that what happens when the samurai Xun walks with his front foot and his back foot.

This can't help but make the saint's old courtiers feel sorry for him.

The new crown prince, the methods are too harsh!

But what can they do?

The Guanlong family supports it, the prime minister of the Zhengshitang supports it, and the military power is firmly held in the hands of the crown prince.Coupled with the support of several important officials of the clan and the queen in the palace, they can only accept the current facts.

Otherwise, resignation is inevitable.

And after this incident, they also understood that the new prince has completely settled in the East Palace.

Immediately afterwards, Duguying, a former official of the Shence Mansion, was appointed by Li Zhiyun as the Minister of the Ministry of Inspection and Engineering.

Duguying is definitely not suitable to stay in the Ministry of Industry, this is just a gesture Li Zhiyun deliberately made to show the Guanlong family.

The meaning is obvious.

Have you seen that the emperor is suppressing you, but I am using you!
However, there is a limit to this.

Because, the remaining prime minister's position can't be delayed any longer, and the courtiers have written to Li Zhiyun many times, asking for a prime minister.

In this regard, Li Zhiyun has already made up his mind.

The current five prime ministers are Yang Gongren, Pei Ju, Chen Shuda, Pei Ji, and Li Shuliang.

Since the beginning of the dynasty, six phases have been standard equipment, and if one is missing, it will naturally lead to competition among many parties.Li Zhiyun's promotion of Duguying this time, apart from continuing to win over people from Guanlong, is also to prepare for a new appointment.

Others give a sweet date with a stick first, but he gives a sweet date first, and then beats a stick.

Wude Hall, side hall.

The side hall is a small room, with light shining through the cage sand window, and the mottled light and shadow fall on the floor.Bursts of sandalwood linger around the tip of the nose.

Du Ruhui and Xue Shou were summoned to meet the prince.

After the tea was served inside, Li Zhiyun dismissed the others, leaving only the three of them in the room.

"Duan Zhixuan fought well in Youzhou. He has pulled out seven camps of the rebel army on the frontal battlefield, and has severely defeated the spirit of the rebel army."

General Li Zhiyun reported to the two of them to watch, and then said: "Shibobi is currently curled up in Tanzhou, his movements are unknown, it is a hidden danger."

Du Ruhui pinched the military newspaper and murmured: "From my point of view, Shibobi probably wanted to take this opportunity to plunder You and Tan Prefectures and restore his vitality. He competed with Jieli, lost, and was already on the verge of defeat. He had nowhere to go, and he had no choice but to resort to this terrible strategy.

If General Duan breaks the rebels this time, Shi Bobi is likely to retreat without a fight.In the worst case, the people of Youzhou may suffer severely.Chen, I don't believe that Shi Bobi would really be willing to fight against our court with Luo Yi. "

Xue Shou said: "I also think so. The envoy sent from Honglu Temple to the grassland has been sent back news. Shibobi's army was defeated, and now he can only hide in Xidi to survive. On this occasion, no matter what, he Don't dare to offend me."

Li Zhiyun nodded and asked, "Is there any progress with the envoys sent to the grassland?"

Du Ruhui replied: "Reporting to His Royal Highness, people have contacted Ba Yegu, Xue Yantuo, Pugu, Tongluo, Uighur and other leaders, but there is no progress yet."

"It's a bad start." Li Zhiyun took a slight breath.

If it is possible to create a split within the Turks, this will undoubtedly be great news for Datang.Now Datang urgently needs to accumulate money and food.One more year of recuperation will increase the odds of winning the war against the Turks in the future.

Although he didn't expect much from this split of Turks, he didn't give up completely.

Du Ruhui comforted: "Your Highness, don't be in a hurry. Although there is no good news, I feel that Jieli is aggressive. After retreating from Bingzhou, he immediately went to war with Shibobi. There must be dissatisfaction among the Turks. "

"Maybe." Li Zhiyun said lightly.

He remembered that in history, the tribes inside the Turks rebelled, and it seemed that after the decline of Xieli, this meant that Tang had to hack Xieli to death, otherwise the tribes inside the Turks would not have the guts to jump out and rebel.

In other words, Datang still had to do it himself.

"Forget it, let's not talk about this." Li Zhiyun changed the subject, looked at them, and said: "I summoned you this time, mainly to discuss with you the candidate for the new prime minister. Looking at the government and the public alone, I still feel that this new prime minister is in your hands. It is most suitable to choose between the two."

Both Du Ruhui and Xue Shou are his confidantes, and they absolutely trust civil servants.Moreover, the two of them themselves have the talents of prime ministers.

Needless to say, Du Ruhui knew everything.As for Xue Shou, although this person died early in history and Li Shimin failed to get a bonus after he ascended the throne, Li Shimin later said to Fang Xuanling;

Li Shimin's eyes can still be trusted.

What's more, Li Zhiyun has been assisted by Xue Shou for many years, and he knows Xue Shou's ability well, so there is no problem in letting him be the prime minister.

Therefore, Li Zhiyun can be completely relieved by letting them be the prime ministers.

Facing the crown prince's straightforward appreciation, Du Ruhui and Xue Shou naturally blushed and were very happy.

They took the risk of beheading to help the king of Chu seize the heir, for the purpose of being able to become an extremely powerful minister one day.

And now, that opportunity is at hand.

However, both of them were calm-minded people, and after experiencing a moment of ecstasy, they remained silent at the same time.

In this regard, Li Zhiyun is not in a hurry.

Now, he has to be more calm than the courtiers under him.

After a while, Du Ruhui cupped his hands first and said: "His Royal Highness loves you so much, I am very grateful. But please forgive me for refusing."

Hearing this, Li Zhiyun teased and said: "Why, because there is only one position, you don't want to hurt the feelings of your comrades, but you declined in front of Gu instead?"

"No." Du Ruhui said sternly: "I and Xue Shou, Your Highness, are of the same mind, there is no such thing. The reason why I refused is because I have not experienced the prefectures and counties, and cannot enter the provincial and Taiwan departments as officials. "

Xue Shou also said: "The minister seconded the proposal. What Du Ruhui said is also the minister's heart. Your highness values ​​the minister, and the minister can't repay it. It's just that it is for the sake of the world and for His Royal Highness. At present, the minister is not allowed to enter the political affairs hall."

The atmosphere fell silent.

Li Zhiyun looked at the two of them with calm eyes, but with a hint of oppression.

"Gu also agrees with what you said. It's just that my Tang Dynasty has only been established for seven years, and I don't need to pay attention to these things. It won't be too late to establish rules in the future."

"His Royal Highness, no!" Du Ruhui sternly refused: "If the rules are broken now, future generations will surely follow suit. This crime cannot be borne by me, and His Highness absolutely must not do this."

"That's right, Your Highness. Although it was said that at the beginning of the establishment of the dynasty, there was a saying that there was a rush to follow the rules, but the rules should not be broken lightly. At this time, Your Highness should set up rules and firmly maintain the rules." Xue Shou followed up to persuade.

Li Zhiyun frowned, and said: "You should know that treating you alone is like treating your own heart. In your eyes, why does the phase seem to be so vicious that you can't avoid it. Are you going to abandon your loneliness?"

"I have absolutely no such intention." The two replied at the same time.
