Great Tang Dynasty

Chapter 543
Qin Tian told some things about Qiang Tang.

After saying this, the officials discussed it again, and the matter was considered over.

And at this time, Li Shimin said: "Qin Aiqing played an indispensable role in repelling the Turks this time, and just now brought up some matters concerning the strengthening of the Tang Dynasty. These matters involve all aspects of our Tang Dynasty. You are indispensable."

Speaking of this, Li Shimin said: "Qin Tian listens to the seal."

When these words came out, everyone was stunned. This obviously meant to give Qin Tian an official title. I don't know how Li Shimin will reward Qin Tian this time.

Everyone looked over excitedly, Li Shimin said: "Confer Qin Tian as Shangshuling, command the six ministries, add a rank to the official, and at the same time, involve the Jiuqing."

After saying that, Li Shimin paused, and said again: "Although the contribution is great, I won't add a title for the time being. After the Turks are destroyed, I will reward you again."

There was no extranomination, but there was a commotion and discussion in the whole court.

Immediately afterwards, someone stood up.

"Your Majesty, this reward is too great for you. Qin Tian is only so old, how can he be appointed Minister?"

"That is, among the six departments, the minister is not older than him, so he can be his father. It is really inappropriate for him to lead the six departments."

"That's right, Qin Tian is too young to pay homage to Prime Minister..."

Everyone was shocked, but also very jealous and envious, and also very opposed to Qin Tian being the minister.

The official system of the Tang Dynasty is the system of three provinces and six departments. The three provinces are Zhongshu Province, Menxia Province and Shangshu Province. The three provinces perform their own duties.

Every chief of the three provinces, whether it is Zhongshuling, Menxialing, or Shangshuling, is considered as the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty.

In the past, there was only one prime minister, but later the functions and powers of prime ministers were divided, but even so, everyone believed that the chief executives of these three provinces were prime ministers.

Today's eldest grandson Wuji is Zhongshuling.

Qin Tian was so young, how could he be able to pay homage to his prime minister?

The voices of opposition kept coming and going. In fact, it wasn't that they thought Qin Tian didn't have this ability. From Qin Tian's actions in the past few years, no one doubted his ability.

Everyone just couldn't accept the result.

These people, after passing the official examinations and working hard, are finally qualified to enter the court, but most of them are only third-, fourth-, fifth- and sixth-rank officials, or they are working in the sixth department. Either they work in Jiuqing, and there are very few first-rank officials.

And their age is much older than Qin Tian.

They were jealous, and felt that Qin Tian became a prime minister at a young age, which was too dazzling. Of course, it was their eyes that pierced and made them uncomfortable.

As everyone said, Qin Tian was standing in the main hall, and he didn't speak in a hurry. He knew that he was a bit too handsome in the woods, and he would naturally be targeted.

He doesn't want to be the prime minister, and he is still in charge of the six departments, which will make him very busy. If he is busy, he will basically have little time to rest and enjoy life.

But if he is not right, it will not be easy for the Great Tang to be strong. Now he can't only think about himself, but also think about the Great Tang.

During the most difficult period in Datang, he felt that he should have the courage to give up.

Facing the opposition of everyone, Qin Tian didn't rush to fight for himself, it was not the time yet.

Now, since he has entered the officialdom of the court, he must learn to be smart. When everyone opposes you, don't rush to refute, otherwise you will become the target of public criticism.

Qin Tian stood calmly, and at this moment, Li Ji stood up: "My lord, I thought Lord Qin Hou had the ability to serve as Minister of the Book, and the Lord said just now that if you are thirsty for talents, Lord Qin Hou is Talent, if you don’t use it because of age, it’s a bit of putting the cart before the horse.”

"Your Majesty, I think what the British public said makes sense. I have never heard of it. Older people must have skills. If you want to say this, wouldn't I be more useful when I am in my [-]s or [-]s? Governing the country requires You can only use talents, and you can't just look at age. In the past, Gan Luo was nine years old and even paid homage to the prime minister. Could it be that I, Tang Dynasty, can't do it?"

Someone stood up to support Qin Tian, ​​Cheng Yaojin was overjoyed, and then he also stood up: "I know Qin Tian, ​​let's see who dares to object, dare to object, my old Cheng beats him, if you have the ability, you can beat Turkic Get back."

Because of Qin Tian's strategy, Cheng Yaojin and Yu Chigong controlled the situation outside Jingzhou City and repelled the Turks, so they were very supportive of Qin Tian.

Cheng Yaojin's words are a bit rascal, but they are effective, no one wants to provoke a rascal like Cheng Yaojin, especially those civil servants, maybe Cheng Yaojin really dares to beat them.

The court was chaotic, at this time, Qin Tiancai finally stood up and said: "The Holy Majesty bestowed the position of prime minister on the minister, and he really loves the humble minister. The humble minister believes that he is not capable of governing the Tang Dynasty well, so he didn't want to accept it. But now that the national power of the Tang Dynasty is weak, although I have a desire for pleasure, I also feel a little guilty and uneasy, so I am willing to use my weak body to make the Tang Dynasty prosperous and strong, and I will die and die."

Qin Tian's words were resounding, and everyone's heart trembled.

Li Shimin looked at Qin Tian in the hall, and nodded: "Okay, the plan for the country's peril needs a talent like Qin Aiqing. In the future, I hope Qin Aiqing can abide by today's words."

"Here!"

When the court retreated, it was already dusk, and this court meeting was a bit long.

At dusk, the city of Chang'an gradually regained its calm. The sunset was surprisingly beautiful. The people who were in a panic before were now relaxed, and when they walked the streets, they were very leisurely.

Many people have already heard about Qin Tian entering the enemy camp to negotiate and persuade the Turks to retreat, so after seeing Qin Tian, ​​these people rushed up to say hello, they couldn't control their enthusiasm.

The common people are sometimes simple, Qin Tian nodded to them, and then walked towards the mansion.

Qin Hou Mansion has also recovered from the previous tense state, and now it is particularly lively. Qin Feiyan even ordered someone to cook a table of meals, waiting to celebrate Qin Tian's return alive.

In the lively Qinhou Mansion, accompanied by the singing of cicadas at dusk, as soon as Qin Tian walked in, he was pulled over by a group of people, who asked each other one word at a time, for fear that he would lose his hair.

And just as they were asking, the palace servants rushed forward.

"Qin Xiang, this is Shangshu Sheng's seal, as well as official uniforms, etc. The slaves brought them to you."

The palace people were courteous, but Princess Jiu, Tang Rong and the others were taken aback when they heard this.

"What Qin Xiang, what Shangshu Xiangyin?"

Gong Ren said: "Everyone may not know that the Holy Majesty has worshiped Lord Qin Hou as the Minister of the Book, and he is in charge of the six ministries, and he is the Minister of Qin..."

As soon as these words came out, the entire Qinhou Mansion exploded.

"My younger brother has become the prime minister?"
