Zhenguan Crown Prince Li Chengqian

Chapter 596 I Can't Control This Matter

At the end of the new year, the young couple Li Chengqian and Dugu Miaoyin would be busy in the study for two days, and the servants of the East Palace would follow the orders of the two masters to go in and out of the bedrooms of the concubines and the mansions of the princes and nobles. Its purpose is to return gifts to everyone.

I don't know when the word "reciprocity" appeared in this country. It is a way of life for relatives and friends to walk around each other during the Chinese New Year, and this is also a common way for everyone to strengthen relationships.

Ordinary courtiers have customized gifts every year, so Li Chengqian doesn't have to worry about it. As long as he approves the note, there will naturally be someone dedicated to deliver it on time and on time. Very concerned.

It is necessary for the young couple to personally decide whether it is concubines, clan and close civil and military officials. Apart from the elders, these people are the people who care for the East Palace, such as Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Li Jing, Tang Jian, etc., they are all important officials of the court. Moreover, they are all inextricably linked with the East Palace, so things like New Year's Day should not be sloppy.

At the same time, because Hou Junji, Li Daliang, Niu Jinda, Changsun Jiaqing and others are away on errands all year round, their family members are also taken care of by the Crown Princess Dugu Miaoyin, so they can't just let them grind and not give grass to eat.Whoever lives in this life is not for the sake of his wife, children and children. Li Chengqian has always done a good job in this regard. As long as there is a need, the East Palace can satisfy them with everything. This is one of the reasons why all the senior officials work diligently outside the government year after day.

Of course, it’s not easy to treat this kind of thing too differently, and some face-saving things are still worth living, like Cen Wenwen, Li Ji, Zhang Liang, Wei Zheng, Kong Yingda, and other courtiers of various colors, the East Palace will also send them during the Chinese New Year. It's no wonder that a person's heart is full of courtesy.Donggong will not care about them because of these three melons, and it will appear that the crown prince is not modest in his treatment of others.

Don't think it's a big deal, but Li Chengqian and his wife also spent a lot of energy, and they didn't even spend much time with Li Xiang.However, speaking of little Li Xiang, that little guy is not alone at all. The emperor and empress spend time every day in Linde Hall to accompany their grandson. This little guy has become the most precious little ancestor in the entire palace in the shortest possible time. .

Xiao Sizi and Xiao Mozi, two little kids who were born as aunts, also came to play with Li Xiang from time to time, because they thought the white and tender face and little hands were so fun.

Linde Hall, when Li Chengqian and his wife entered the hall, they saw this scene of laughter and laughter, especially the two little guys, Sizi and Mozi, who were rushing to push Li Xiang in a small cart, and Empress Changsun followed behind her repeatedly. They are slower.

After seeing the ceremony, Li Shimin patted the place next to him, and motioned for his son to sit down and talk, what should we talk about with our father and son, women can't let go of their dolls when they see them, let them have fun!
"Gao Ming, your performance in the matter of the eldest grandson Anye is very in line with my heart. The royal relatives and relatives should be taken care of, but not too much, otherwise it will inevitably become a trend that cannot be lost. I know that their status is noble, and there are many connections between them and the royal family. People and affairs in the imperial court are clear. If foreign officials want to rely on these two smeared courts, it is naturally the best choice to find them as their disciples. But if they are dedicated to the public, everything will be done according to What is there to be taken care of by the law in the DPRK?"

Regarding the emperor's question, Li Chengqian thought about it when he was in Yongchang. It stands to reason that the officials of the Zhenguan Dynasty were good in all previous dynasties. Yes, it is much better than the days at the beginning of the founding of the country, and there is no need to take the risk of beheading to live.In this way, there is only one reason for the problem, just like what Han Kui said.

After organizing the language a little bit, Li Chengqian said: "Father, after Zhenguan, the court's standard for employing people is to make the best use of their talents, regardless of their background. Father did this because he wanted to break the situation of Shi Qingshilu and stabilize the situation of the court. There is nothing wrong with consolidating imperial power, and it is because of this strategy of employing people that today's Zhenguan prosperity has been forged.

Gentlemen have the five virtues of culture, cleanliness, honesty, frugality, and faith. The Yongchang case embodies the problem of "virtue does not match" in the officialdom. They are capable of handling errands and can make the people settle down. In the eyes of the officials, the official positions and rewards given by the emperor were too small compared to their contributions, and they could not satisfy their desires at all, so this kind of disaster happened.When I was in Yongchang, my son went to actually investigate."

After hearing his son's remonstrance and Yongchang's experience, Li Shimin nodded, and then said: "Have you read the dossier reported by the Ministry of Criminal Justice? Before the Shangyuan Festival, kill this momentum, how to do it, you can decide for yourself, Qingque is good at reading, but it is not the material to do this."

Before Li Chengqian could reply, Zhang Sizheng, who was waiting outside, came in, bowed and said, "Your Majesty, Your Highness, Princess Linhai is asking to see you outside the palace!"

Hearing this younger sister, Li Shimin's head grew dizzy in an instant. It's New Year's Eve, who's quarreling like this, it seems that she has already made up her mind today, and she has to ask Zhen and Gao Ming for an explanation.Li Chengqian got Pei Xingfang into the six ranks, the emperor had heard from Du Ruhui a long time ago, since Gao Ming took over this matter, let him take the lead, I don't want to be bothered by this matter anymore.

After Princess Linhai entered the palace, before she could speak, Li Shimin interrupted him by raising his hand, and said in a deep voice: "Linhai, you don't need to tell me anything, I don't care about your affairs, you and Gao Ming study what you want to say. But please remember, some things cannot be turned back after you have done them, so you can do it yourself!" After speaking, he picked up little Li Xiang and left the hall with the eldest grandson empress, Xi Zi, Mo Zi and others.

The emperor's words are very clear, the soaked feet came out by oneself, don't always blame others for a day, the Pei family is quite hateful, but it's a done deal, your marriage was decided when Emperor Taiwu was in power, and you I was also happy to marry in the past. Now that I am not doing well, I can't blame my brother!
After asking Dugu Miaoyin to help Princess Linhai sit down, Li Chengqian said slowly with a smile on his face: "My aunt has always lived in seclusion and doesn't like to move around. It's really a surprise to Gu Gu to be able to return to the East Palace today. I don't know what my aunt is talking about today." Ah!", the emperor can pat his ass and leave, but Li Chengqian can't, after all, Pei Xingfang was saved by himself, and it will be a matter of time before someone finds him.

But this pot cover can only be lifted by Princess Linhai herself, Li Chengqian is not good at being a nephew and took the initiative to propose it, so he can only be confused with joy. .
