I directed the Xuanwumen Incident

Li Shimin's eyes fell on Xue Rengui.

"Sure enough... he is a good-looking talent!"

He only glanced at it twice before approving.

It has to be said that Xue Rengui grew up in his aesthetics.

With a square appearance and a burly figure, he is very decent at first glance, and he is definitely not a wicked person!

Hmm...Li Er is indeed a bit of an appearance association.

This point may be up to my mother. For a handsome guy with a good appearance, there is always a filter.

"That's natural."

Xu Fenglei laughed,
"At that time, I felt that this kid was extraordinary at a glance. Even if he was disgraced in that group of laborers, I thought he was not an ordinary person!"

"Perhaps, this corresponds to the sentence - gold always shines!"

Li Shimin nodded in satisfaction.

"Get up, boy."

Li Er raised his hand and said,
"Come here, let me take a good look at you."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Xue Rengui stood up now, and the tension in his heart eased a bit.

Listening to the conversation between elder brother and His Majesty... My first impression should be passable, right?

Thinking about it, when he raised his head, his mind was shocked.

So... His Majesty the Emperor looks like this!
It was almost the same as he expected in his heart!
The emperor has to look like this to be worthy of his status!

"Tingming is your elder brother, and I have a deep friendship with Tingming. If you line up like this, you can be regarded as my younger brother."

Li Shimin said with a smile,

"I, let me call you Rengui!"

"Rengui, what you did in Tuyuhun, I heard from your elder brother, you did a good job, really good!"

Xue Rengui: "!!!"

His Majesty called himself benevolent!so kind!

He knew that it was mainly because of his eldest brother, but even so, he was still very excited...

There are not many people in the entire Tang Dynasty who can be called so kindly by His Majesty!
"Your Majesty is wrong!"

Xue Rengui cupped his hands again, and said in an incomparably humble way,
"Caomin just did what was supposed to be done and barely completed the task."

"Actually... there are many aspects that the grassroots can do better."

Li Shimin nodded slightly.

"You can win without arrogance at such a young age. In this regard, you have already surpassed many people!"

He praised,

"When I was your age, I wasn't as calm as you!"

This character has become a bonus item for Li Er.

He likes calm ones, such as Li Jing, Li Ji, and Xu Fenglei. They are very safe to use, and often you don't have to worry about them. Waking up is a victory.

And Xue Rengui also has such potential!

The point is...he is still so young, so he has such potential!This made Li Er feel a little joyful in his heart.

"Perhaps it is because of the child's previous bitter experience that he developed this temperament."

Xu Fenglei interjected,

"In the human world, he has already tempered a lot, so he doesn't need to polish it anymore. What he lacks now is nothing more than experience."

Li Shimin thinks so.

The children of poor families are in charge early.

People who come from a bitter background often have more perseverance and calmness than their peers.

"Listen, your insight has picked out a general for Datang!"

Li Er gave Xu Fenglei a thumbs up and said,
"very nice!"

"Go out more in the future, and pick up a few more talents to come back!"

Xu Fenglei: "..."

How about you being a cabbage on the street?
You can pick it up wherever you go...

Generals like Xue Rengui are hard to come by!
Of course, there are still some people in his talent pool.

For example, Di Renjie, who was still a child, and Wu Erya, who was always the first in grade in the academy.

These few children, he has formed a fate early on.

In the future, it must be transformed into a dragon and a phoenix in the world!
"Rengui, where are you from?"

Li Shimin began to check the household registration.

This is also the last step to enable the relationship between people.

You have to fully understand a person before you can use it with confidence.

"Returning to Your Majesty, Caomin was born in the Xue family of Hedong, but it was only a side branch. By Caomin's father's generation, it had already declined."

Xue Rengui's expression remained unchanged, and he said respectfully,
"Father died early again, which made the already poor family even worse."

"My mother worked hard to bring me up alone, but my appetite was really too big. She worked very hard to support me, and eventually fell ill."

"The grassroots can only come to Chang'an to work, and they are also lucky. They are on the construction site of the Academy to earn a wage."

Li Shimin was stunned.

"Hedong Xue family, that is indeed a famous family."

he sighed,

"Although it is not as good as the Five Surnames and Seven Wangs, it can be regarded as a profound foundation."

"You came from a prominent family, but ended up in such poverty, it's really embarrassing..."

"Is mother well now?"

Xu Fenglei responded:
"I have sent someone to treat it before, and there is no serious problem. The main thing is to save food and money, and the meat can't keep up."

"You just need to rest at home and eat decent food, then you can recover. I reckon at this moment... the old lady should be quite agile."

"It just so happens that Rengui has successfully completed his mission and came back this time. I think it's time to bring the old lady to Chang'an to enjoy the blessings."

Li Shimin nodded again and again.

"Yes, yes, having an old man in a family is like having a treasure. It is not easy for her to cultivate benevolence, and she should enjoy the blessing."

Li Er ordered,
"Just do as you want! Take the old lady over!"

Pfft!
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Xue Rengui said excitedly.

"Okay, what is this, get up."

Li Shimin waved his hand and said with a smile,

"Rengui, you really did a great job this time!"

"I'll do the math for you, first kill Songtsan Gampo, and complete the mission entrusted to you by me and your elder brother, this is a meritorious service!"

"Obtaining information and allowing Datang to take the lead in the civil strife in Tubo, this is another achievement!"

"Being thoughtful before doing the mission, I saved my brothers and saved an elite team for Datang. This is also a meritorious service!"

"Such three merits are enough to be knighted!"

Really don't say it.

As far as Xue Rengui's record is concerned, on the bright side, it can cause a worldwide sensation!

In terms of rewards for meritorious deeds, it is not too much to be directly named a marquis!
Unfortunately, this matter cannot be brought to light.

"but--"

Sure enough, Li Shimin's turning point came,

"You also know that this strategy is carried out in secret."

"Except for a few people who knew about it, the whole court and the whole world didn't know about it, and they couldn't know that it was written by the people of Tang!"

"So... I can only wrong you for the time being, and I hope you can understand me."

Xue Rengui knelt on the ground, shocked.

"What's your Majesty talking about? The grassroots never dare to be greedy for credit!"

He hurriedly said,
"Caomin only thinks about completing the task and leaving the teacher, so he is satisfied!"

"Others, never dare to think about it!"

Xue Rengui has never imagined what it means to confer titles, it is all far-fetched.

He is down-to-earth, and his messy fantasies never appear in his mind.

"Well... I'm so relieved that you can think like this."

Seeing Xue Rengui, Li Shimin became more and more satisfied at the moment, and said,

"Don't worry, I will never treat meritorious ministers badly!"

"You have made meritorious service, so you must be rewarded! I can't give you the title of a knight for the time being, but with your ability, it will be a matter of time, so don't worry."

"I decided to meet your other needs first! Tell me! What do you want!"

"As long as you mention it, I will definitely promise you!"

Li Er wrote a blank check.

You can fill in whatever you want!

Of course, if you fill it in casually, there will be problems.

Xu Fenglei also taught Xue Rengui that when the emperor said, "just ask for the conditions", he has probably already thought about what to give you in his heart.

At this time, just say some beautiful words, make some insignificant small requests, and then everything can be arranged, unless it is something that is particularly desired, it must not be mentioned.

If you mention it, you will lose your Sacred Heart!
For an old guy like Xu Fenglei, it's okay to speak casually, but Xue Rengui met the emperor for the first time, so he naturally spoke impeccably, which gave Li Shimin a perfect impression.

"Grass people have no demand."

Xue Rengui said earnestly,

"I only hope that His Majesty will give the grassroots a chance to join the military camp and serve the country!"

"Your Majesty, please complete it!"

Xu Fenglei nodded slightly, the corners of his mouth raised slightly.

This kid is still smart.

Now, Li Er's impression of him is likely to rise again!
"Well, boy! That's good!"

Li Shimin praised,

"You have both the heart and the ability, how can I not be satisfied?"

"I will confer on you the sixth-rank Zhaowu Colonel first! As long as you have accumulated a little military merit in the army, I will immediately promote you to be General Dingyuan and take charge of the army! From now on, as long as you have military merit, I will give you a promotion, and I will never treat you lightly!"

"Would you like to?"

Lieutenant Zhaowu is the top grade of the sixth rank, the apex of the captains, and one step higher is the rank of general!

Therefore, it is also known as the 'half-step general'!
Many honored children did not have such a high starting point at the beginning. They all started as the captain of Qipin Yihui and gradually rose up.

Not to mention, Li Shimin also promised to be promoted to general!
General Dingyuan, he is on the fifth rank!
As we all know, there is a gap between the fifth rank and the sixth rank. There is a big difference between the two, whether it is treatment or power!

Only the fifth rank is eligible to be called a senior member!
Being able to fly up is almost like a carp jumping over a dragon's gate.

Many officials are stuck at this step and will not be able to go up for the rest of their lives.

But at this moment, Xue Rengui only needs to obtain a little military qualifications, and he can jump several levels in a row and be directly promoted to General Dingyuan!

It can be said that the emperor's grace is mighty!

"This...Your Majesty, what kind of grassroots can you do?"

Xue Rengui was startled, and repeatedly waved his hands to decline.

In a word from the emperor, he went directly from an ordinary person to a sixth-rank school lieutenant of the imperial court, a half-step brigadier general?
This...is too dreamy!

"Don't underestimate yourself."

Xu Fenglei snorted softly,

"As far as your meritorious service is concerned, if you put it on the bright side and reward it, you can even be named a third-rank General Yunhui!"

"You are only a sixth-rank captain Zhaowu, I have already wronged you, thank you!"

Li Shimin's reward was similar to what he expected in his heart.

He came up to be a quasi general, and he was trained according to the heir to the future commander of the Tang Dynasty!

"Exactly."

Li Shimin said with a smile,

"If you don't make a general all at once, it's too eye-catching, I will definitely make you a general."

"Now, I can only wrong you temporarily, but don't worry, it's really only temporary."

"As long as the time is right, I'll let you experience what it means to rise to the top!"

Xue Rengui: "!!!"

These words already made him feel that his future...is bright!
"Thank you... Your Majesty!"

When Xue Rengui said these three words, tears filled his eyes.

"Don't cry, there is more."

Li Shimin said again,
"The official seal, the next step is the reward."

"This reward will not attract people's attention, so I naturally have to be more generous!"

"Listen, the royal family still has a lot of real estate in the prosperous area of ​​Dongxifang City. When Qingquan invested in the construction before, some of them belonged to me."

"Look, which one is suitable for Rengui to live in, reward him as a house!"

Xu Fenglei grinned.

"Okay, I've been looking for it for a long time."

he said,

"This kid likes to be closer to me, just near my house, give him a set."

"Benevolence! Thank you, Your Majesty! The royal properties are worth thousands of dollars! Especially those mansions in prosperous areas, they cannot be bought by thousands of dollars!"

"You've made a fortune!"

Xue Rengui was a little confused.

Li Shimin's face was also a little dark.

This kid... seized the opportunity and squeezed him to death!This time, I didn't pick it up for myself, but for others!
This sentence of reward will cost thousands, even tens of thousands of taels of gold!

That's right, the most golden location in Chang'an is already worth every inch of land!With the influx of a large number of people, countless wealthy households from other places choose to settle in Chang'an...

The house price will be pushed up even more!
"Thank... Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Xue Rengui stammered a bit.

"... Well, your big brother is really a good big brother, always thinking of you."

Li Shimin gave Xu Fenglei a blank look, and said to Xue Rengui,

"Stay well in Chang'an! Take my old lady over and be filial!"

"Originally, I wanted to reward you with some more gold and silver, but considering how rich your elder brother is, I don't need to reward you."

"Just ask your elder brother to take it! You can take as much as you want, there is no limit, I said it!"

Xu Fenglei: "#￥%...&*@#"

This Li Er, you are so narrow-minded!
Take advantage of you, you have to report it back!

"This... grassroots, oh no, I also have some family resources, which is enough."

Xue Rengui said honestly,
"Thank you, Your Majesty Long En, I won't ask my elder brother for it."

Li Shimin snorted lightly.

"Brother and friend, brother and friend, brother and friend, ha..."

he said,

"That's fine... You're fine right now, the most urgent thing is to manage your own life well."

"If you have any difficulties, you can tell your elder brother, or you can give me a report, and I can solve it for you!"

"Replenish your energy and recharge your batteries, adjust yourself well, there are still many places where I will use you in the future!"

When Xue Rengui heard the words, his expression straightened immediately!
"According to the order!"

He said loudly, "As long as His Majesty has an order, I will surely die!"

Li Shimin nodded happily, waved his hand and said, "Well, you should step back first."

"My brother and I still have some things to talk about, let's go."
