Chapter 535 Taizhou Inspector
If Li Chengqian's East Palace was relatively strict before, then since he entered the East Palace with satisfaction, the East Palace has completely leaked into a sieve in front of Li Ke's eyes.

Just over a month after Xinxin entered the East Palace, Xiao Yuexian's Xieyu Tower quickly leaned against the banner of the East Palace, and sent many Le Ji dancers to the East Palace under various names. Unknowingly, Xiao Yuexian His eyeliner has slowly taken root in the East Palace.

And with Xinxin entering the East Palace, the relationship between the Crown Prince Li Chengqian and the Crown Princess Su Xiao has quietly deteriorated intentionally or unconsciously.

However, Su Xiao is a daughter of a noble family after all, so she knows the basics. Li Chengqian is also a little jealous of the Su family's martial arts, and has never done it too ugly. Therefore, although the relationship between the two is at odds, they have not broken their faces. But just today, A sudden incident broke the superficial tranquility of the East Palace, and pushed the prince's family affairs to the court.

In the 11th year of Zhenguan, it was the middle of winter and the twelfth lunar month.

At the end of the first year, the enemies in Mobei and Northwest have been eliminated. In a short period of time, at least for a few years, there will be no more wars on the border of the Tang Dynasty, and it is time for the Tang Dynasty to recuperate.

But Li Shimin is a person who can't be idle, and there is nothing on the border, so Li Shimin's mind is placed on the court. It coincides with the end of the year, and the governors and governors of various states come to Beijing to report on their duties at the end of the year.

Although it has been [-] years since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, during the Wude period when Li Yuan was in power, there were almost non-stop wars on all sides, and it was only in the early ten years that Li Tang really won the country.

Ten years is not a short period of time, but it is not too long. The states of the Tang Dynasty and the North State often go to war, and most of the state officials are officials. Good and bad.

So Li Shimin moved his mind and issued an order to the three provinces. From then on, the new governors of each state will be recommended by the Ministry of officials.

This news was extremely shocking, and soon spread throughout the entire Tang Dynasty official circles, to the point where everyone knew about it.

The East Palace and Yichun Beiyuan are also where Li Chengqian is satisfied.

Yichun Beiyuan belongs to the outer garden of the Eastern Palace. It is adjacent to the shooting range and connected to Guangzhaifang in the northeast of Chang’an City. The voices of people outside the palace can be heard through a wall to the east. It is rare for the entire Eastern Palace to be full of fireworks out of place.

In the garden of Beiyuan in Yichun, Li Chengqian and Yixin were sitting opposite each other in front of a stone table.

"Congratulations to the crown prince, you have the right to select the head of the prefecture's department, and you will be on top of the official department." Holding up the wine glass, Congratulations to Li Chengqian.

Li Shimin ordered Li Chengqian to participate in the prefectural governor's election, which somewhat meant delegating power, and in terms of ranking, Li Chengqian was indeed above the official staff, so he said this with satisfaction.

Li Chengqian waved his hand, and said with a smile: "Where did the power of selection come from? It's just that I want my palace to learn more from Fang Xuanling. The big idea in the selection of officials must be held by Fang Xuanling."

Li Chengqian's words are modest, but the pride in his heart has long been overflowing. In the past, he was only in charge of criminal prosecution, and he was indeed dissatisfied with Li Shimin. The choice is indeed very different from the past.

Xinxin said: "Everyone praises King Chu's martial arts and King Wei's Wende, but the prince is still a prince after all, how can all the kings be able to compare with it. Today, His Majesty ordered the prince and Fang Xiang to select officials. Maybe this is a test for the prince. It's time to order the crown prince to take charge of the official department. By then, the court, inside and outside the court, and all counties in the prefecture will be the crown prince's disciples."

"Hahaha"

Hearing this, Li Chengqian couldn't help laughing heartily, just as what Yixin said, after all, Li Chengqian is Li Shimin's eldest son, and the crown prince is the crown prince, and the selection of state officials has a lot to do with him, apart from him, even Li Ke can't get involved.

Li Chengqian said: "With your good words, if one day the Japanese Palace can take charge of the Ministry of Officials, the Palace will ennoble you as Shao Zhan of the Eastern Palace."

The Ministry of Officials has the right to appoint and remove officials of the fourth rank and below, and the crown prince Shao Zhan is the fourth rank. Li Chengqian said that, but he took his satisfaction to heart.

After thinking about it for a while, he said to Li Chengqian with concern: "This is absolutely impossible. I have ordinary talents, and I can do nothing more than please your lord. Being able to be a recorder and being with the prince is the limit. How can I do anything else?" What's more, the crown prince is still the crown prince, and he has not ascended the throne, so he should be more careful in his actions, and don't be attacked by others because of favoritism."

Hearing what Xin said, Li Chengqian was very moved, and Li Chengqian said with emotion: "You are the most important person in this palace, and it would be great if everyone in the East Palace was like you."

Xinxin said with a smile: "Where did the prince say, there is no one in the East Palace who does not hope for the prince's good, and helps the prince in everything."

Li Chengqian snorted softly and said, "That's not necessarily the case."

Ying Xin pretended to be puzzled and asked, "What does the prince mean by this?"

Li Chengqian replied: "It's not about the Crown Princess Su's family."

Xin Xin then asked: "The Crown Princess's family is from a noble family in Longyou, everyone admires her, what can happen?"

Li Chengqian said: "You probably don't know about this. Taizhou governor Jian Zhongzhi resigned from his post. According to the Ministry of Officials, he wanted to transfer the princess's biological father. Secretary Cheng Su Dan was transferred to Taizhou governor, and Su Dan is indeed a suitable candidate. This book It has been sent to the provincial Taiwan."

Xinxin said with a smile: "This is a good thing. The Secretary Cheng is only from the fifth rank, and the Taizhou governor worships the fourth rank. Mr. Su will be promoted when he goes to Taizhou."

Li Chengqian waved his hand and said: "You don't understand the affairs of the court, and you have simplified the minds of these officials from aristocratic families. These aristocratic families have always been very picky. Taizhou is located in central Fujian, and its location is remote. It can't compare with Chang'an. He is from Longyou, so naturally he doesn't want to leave Chang'an and go to the land of Nanyue. For this matter, the Crown Princess was angry with me yesterday."

Xinxin thoughtfully said: "The Crown Princess is not in the court, and she is not as far-sighted as the Crown Prince. Some things are hard to see clearly. Sometimes it is normal to be angry with the Crown Prince. But in the inner palace, harmony is the most important thing. Although the Crown Princess After complaining a few words, the prince will just let it go."

The more Xinxin is so considerate, the more Li Chengqian is dissatisfied with Su Xiao. Li Chengqian said: "It's fine if it's just to vent your anger. She has been mentioning that Su Quan's body is afraid of getting wet and it's not suitable to go south. She wants me to come forward and directly Reject the document from the Ministry of Officials, and leave Su Quan in Chang'an."

Hearing the words with satisfaction, as if he had heard something extremely incomprehensible, he said in surprise: "The crown prince is in charge of the election of state officials at the beginning, as the princess's natal family, shouldn't the Su family be concerned about the crown prince's face and reputation? , take the initiative to comply with this matter? How can you still embarrass the prince?"

Li Chengqian was already dissatisfied with Su Xiao, and his words of satisfaction immediately ignited Li Chengqian's temper. Li Chengqian slapped the table and said: "That's right, as a princess, she is so disregarding the overall situation, which is difficult for me to do. I want this palace to reject the document from the Ministry of Officials for personal gain. If this matter is passed through the mouth of Fang Xuanling to the ears of my father, how will my father treat this palace?"

Xinxin said: "Calm down the prince's anger, it is inevitable for the prince to be difficult, but after all, the princess concubine is martial arts and the Su family has a high reputation in the court. It is better for the prince not to offend easily. If the Su family is angry, the prince should put down his figure and the prince concubine first. Good discussion, maybe the Crown Princess can also listen to the Prince's words."

It sounds like Li Chengqian is thinking about Li Chengqian's words, but every line in the words is inciting Li Chengqian to get angry. As the crown prince and the heir apparent of the country, Li Chengqian's success depends on the face of his Su family.

The words of the heart can be said to be cruel, the more the heart is said, the more Li Chengqian is unwilling to be manipulated by others, Li Chengqian said: "I should act impartially in this matter, how can I let others criticize me because of favoritism, and let my father down. "
