Zhenguan Crown Prince Li Chengqian

Chapter 232
It has been a long time since Nishang Hall has been so lively. The East Palace is full of people, and civil and military officials are chatting in groups of twos and threes.

Sitting on it, Changsun Wuji and Zhang Xuansu watched them feel at ease. In just six years, the East Palace not only had an army that could not be dragged and defeated, but also gathered a group of hard-working young talents. , They who have been walking a tightrope can finally breathe a sigh of relief.

Let's just talk about Qin Huaiyu. At his age, most of the people in the army are generals, and the best one is General Ningyuan.This kid is now a third-rank official. I heard that the emperor is considering promoting him to be a third-rank general. How can such a promotion speed not make those who have worked hard for many years jealous.

"Okay, don't be so polite, just find a place to sit by yourself." After finishing speaking, he waved his hands to the people below who were saluting.He has never been a person who pays attention to form, so he might as well do more serious things when he has that time.Besides, this respect is in people's hearts, not in these empty heads.

Papa, after patting the armrest of the chair twice, Li Chengqian said with a smile: "It's been a long time on horseback, and sitting on such a soft seat makes people not want to get up. The same is true of the palace.

The common people often say that peasants who overcharge three buckets of wheat want to change their wives. You should all learn from Eguo Public School on this point. The ugly wife is close to Jiabao, and the camel walks alone on the Luoguo Bridge. Don’t forget the past, forget the past It is tantamount to betrayal. "

With the growing power of the Eastern Palace, many of them ascended to the thrones of officials at all levels, and they were usually surrounded by many of their subordinates.

At this time, people's vigilance is often the lowest, and many people unknowingly deviate from their original track, thus embarking on the road of crime.Li Chengqian has seen many things like this before.

Although he knows that the forest is big and there are all kinds of birds, but as their lord, he has the responsibility, and he is also obliged to stand up for these things. Come with him, get out of the fire, and get out, all the subjects.

Seeing Li Chengqian so prepared for danger in times of peace, the grandson Wuji sitting at the bottom was heartily happy for him. His nephew was not dazzled by the victory in front of him.

After hearing Li Chengqian's admonition, the officials in the East Palace also stood up and respectfully accepted the order, and said neatly: "I will obey His Highness's edict, be careful at all times, and dare not violate it."

"Okay, I have written down what you said. This year's promotion and the commendation of the six generals, I have submitted to His Majesty. I believe it will not take long before it can be approved. Many of you will follow suit. Changed uniforms."

Having been the crown prince for the past few years, Li Chengqian has mastered the use of radishes and big sticks.

You don’t have to keep high pressure on these officials to make them breathless. You have to look forward to it. No matter how round the cake is, it can’t satisfy your hunger. If you don’t have rice in your hand these days, you may not even be able to coax chickens of.

Of course, the officials in the palace who knew that they would be promoted also laughed. Many of them were selected by Li Chengqian from various yamen. Being an errand can be said to be the most correct choice in their lives. If they have meritorious service, they will be rewarded, and if they have been punished, they will not be ranked according to their seniority like other places where there are many shady scenes.

"Let's get down to business, I've called you here today for three main things. The first thing is about the Six Rates. You all know that the Six Rates in the Western Expedition have suffered serious losses, so the selection of a large number of recruits and generals has become the top priority. Since From today onwards, Chang Shi Fang Yizhi will also serve as the right guard, and Qin Huaiyu will be responsible for this matter together with Qin Huaiyu, and the time limit will be three months, and the palace will go to review it in person when the time comes."

Let Fang Yi go straight to the right guard rate, Li Chengqian has carefully considered, although many generals in the six rates surpass him in terms of personal force.He has been sitting for a long time, his prestige among the generals is very high, and he can enter the situation the fastest, which is undoubtedly the best choice for the scarred Liu rate.

"The second thing is about Shandong and Hebei. They all say that water and fire are ruthless. Although His Majesty did not order me to do this job, I still have to do my best.

Hasn't the first batch of warships of the Hangzhou Navy already been built?Immediately send an order to Li Chongyi to stop the training, and let him lead all the warships and supply ships to go south at full speed to purchase a batch of grain, and hand it over to Wei Zheng, the inspector of Hebei and Shandong provinces. "

Hearing that Li Chengqian wanted to use the Hangzhou navy to transport grain, Changsun Huan couldn't help standing up and saying, "Your Highness, I don't know if I should say something." After finishing speaking, he raised his head and glanced at the crown prince sitting on it.

After seeing Li Chengqian nodding, he went on to say: "Should we leave a few supply ships dedicated to the merchants in Guanzhong, Luoyang and other places? If we stop them, not only the merchants who cooperate with us in various places will suffer serious losses. , even the huge financial output of the East Palace will have problems."

What the eldest grandson said is not unreasonable. Those merchants have cooperated with Donggong for many years, and they are all honest and responsible businessmen. If their financial resources are cut off, not only will they go bankrupt, but those who live with them will also lose their money. Livelihood, isn’t it just tearing down the east wall to make up for the west?

Li Chengqian, who pondered for a moment, then said: "The original number of supply ships transporting merchants' goods remains unchanged, and those merchants cannot be allowed to bear the risks that do not belong to them. In addition, Changsun Huan knows a little bit, and dares to directly advise and reward a thousand gold."

Hearing what Li Chengqian said, Changsun Huan, who was still a little nervous at first, burst into joy in an instant. After all, he is an official of the Eastern Palace, and his words and deeds should be for Li Chengqian. The crown prince punished the lord for pointing out the fault of the lord so widely.

But what he didn't expect was that Li Chengqian accepted the correction calmly and rewarded him heavily, how could he be so happy.

"Everyone, what Changsun Huan said just now reminded me that no one is perfect, and no one can guarantee that he is right. This is why the imperial court set up counselors. Starting today, copper cabinets will be set up in all the yamen of the Eastern Palace. , No matter the grade is high or low, you can write a letter, and Zhang Zhen and Zhang Hong are responsible for acting."

A wise man like Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was also blinded by his own self-willedness in his later years. He didn't want to lose his humanity in power and hurt those he loved and those who loved him.

Of course, Li Chengqian also knows that not all people have the courage and qualifications to face up to their mistakes, so they can only write anonymously.

"Your Highness's humility is a blessing for the country, and even more so for our ministers. The old minister would like to congratulate the Tang Dynasty and congratulate His Highness.",
Zhang Xuansu looked at his closed disciple with a smile, he had hoped all his life to teach a qualified emperor, and now it seems that this goal is not far away.
