Chapter 638
With Fang Xuanling's resignation, Li Er's case was almost overwhelmed by countless memorials.

He didn't even need to look at it, he could guess it with his toes, almost all of these memorials were related to Fang Xuanling.

It can also be seen from this that Fang Xuanling has not been paid for nothing in recent years.

The reputation in Datang is still there.

Of course, Li Er didn't really care, it wasn't a big deal, he had already expected this result since he decided to do this.

But from his standpoint, he doesn't think he's wrong.

After Fang Xuanling and the others retreated, too many people were thinking about their position. If they didn't cut the mess quickly, things that he couldn't control would easily happen.

But Changsun Wuji and Ma Zhou were his favorite successors early on.

Needless to say, Changsun Wuji's stance has never wavered.

It can be seen from his previous performance in Taohe County.

As for Ma Zhou, that's interesting, what Li Er values ​​is actually his identity.

Of course, it's not the identity of Changhe's disciple, which is really worse than a dog in Datang.

The identity he valued was the identity of Ma Zhou Han's scholar.

To put it bluntly, Li Er wanted to set a standard for scholars in the world.

So, sometimes the success is not because of how capable you really are, but because of opportunities.

Nowadays, countless scholars in the Tang Dynasty are tempted to seek development in Daming. If Li Er doesn't do anything to stabilize their mentality, these scholars' hearts will fly.

Without managing these memorials, Li Er is still waiting.

What can suppress these public opinions is naturally a bigger public opinion turmoil, and Li Er didn't wait long. At the end of the 12th year of Zhenguan, a messenger with red feathers galloped on Suzaku Street.

"Good news, Goguryeo is destroyed, our army has won a big victory!"

"Good news, Goguryeo is destroyed, our army has won a big victory!"

"Good news, Goguryeo is destroyed, our army has won a big victory!"

After several shouts, the entire Suzaku Avenue seemed to stand still.

And the people who were still walking on the street were in a daze for a moment, and even the people who were staggering because of avoiding the galloping horses shut up now.

After a while, everyone seemed to have just realized it, and said blankly, "Win?"

This battle was fought for too long, and even a little inattentive forgot that there was such a thing.

But when it was mentioned again at this time, everyone was delighted.

In an instant, the entire Suzaku Avenue was cheering.

For them, it's all worth it.

No one does not want their country to expand its territory, and no one will deny that their country will become stronger.

This has been the case in all dynasties.

Soon, the news was like snowflakes floating in the entire Chang'an City.

And when Fang Xuanling in the mansion heard the news, he also burst into a smile. At this point, how could he never understand that Li Er caused such a big disturbance, and the strategy to break the emotional situation is actually here.

That's right, and only in this way can Changsun Wuji be allowed to preside over the government smoothly, and his former servant can end the curtain most smoothly.

Thinking of this, Fang Xuanling couldn't help laughing.

……

In Changming Restaurant, Wang Dequan was a little dazed at the moment.

It has been more than a year since the Tang Dynasty went on an expedition to Goguryeo, and today the news of success finally came, which was not good news for him.

Especially with the resignation of Fang Xuanling and the return of Changsun Wuji to the center of the Tang Dynasty, the news of the success of the front line of the Tang Dynasty came at this time, which made the current situation even more tense.

The defeat of Goguryeo in World War I is destined to make those guys in the Datang military ready to move.

After all, there is still Li Er's original sentence that no one can be knighted unless he has made military achievements.

After taking down Goguryeo, Datang actually had only one option for fighting abroad, and that was Taohe County.

Thinking of this, Wang Dequan also had a look of helplessness on his face. At this point, he actually had no choice. If Li Chengqian could go further in the future, he would naturally be able to rise, but if Li Chengqian stopped in the future, his path would be difficult. It's over.

"Come here, send back the news that the Tang Dynasty defeated Goguryeo in the First World War..." Just as he was speaking, Wang Dequan suddenly shook his head and said, "Forget it, we probably don't need this kind of news. Well, before our people returned, His Highness received the news.

In this way, I will send a greeting card to Duke Qi's mansion for me. "

At this time, he actually wanted to go to the palace to see that person. As his identity, it was not a problem to ask to see Li Er, but it was a bit inappropriate to ask to see that one.

Of course, he didn't have the kind of consciousness that Wan Tupu had.

If Wan Tupu was changed, would there be any excuse for the prince's retainer?

After all, he has been in Chang'an for a long time, and although he is not a scholar, he has developed some habits of a scholar.

When Changsun Wuji saw Wang Dequan's letter of greeting, he immediately smiled and said: "This guy, he's making a fool of himself."

Having been immersed in officialdom for many years, he couldn't understand Wang Dequan's thoughts, but after saying such a sentence, he also hesitated while holding the greeting card.

See you or see you?
He couldn't make up his mind for a moment.

Li Er said that he has a firm stand, but this is not entirely true. He is a firm royalist.

But there is a prerequisite for this, that is, the people who will visit Dabao in the future will be the descendants of Empress Changsun.

It may not be Li Chengqian, but it must be his nephew.

Returning to the center of power now seems to be a good thing, but it is also a double-edged sword.

In the future, once Li Chengqian and the others came to Dabao, he, as a foreign relative, would be liquidated, it was inevitable.

No emperor will leave his son with a courtier who is ready to pull you off his horse at any time.

"Since Mr. Lang is hesitant, the old servant will push it away." Seeing this, the old servant smiled immediately.

Changsun Wuji shook his head and said, "No need, it doesn't matter if you push or not, since the greeting card has been handed in, everyone who should know must have already known it.

There is no need for that. In this way, the end of the new year is coming soon, and the old man may not have time later, so let's prepare a banquet for tonight. Tonight, the old man will treat him personally. "

Although Chang'an is big, there are countless people staring at the gate of a high gate like theirs every day.

It's almost impossible to hide it.

That being the case, it might as well be generous.

Hearing what he said, the old servant immediately made arrangements.

At the same time, in the palace, Li Er naturally also received the news.

Of course, he didn't make too many disturbances. For him, all of this was actually expected.

As early as a month ago, Li Jing had a secret performance, and the date of the decisive battle had already been set at that time. This was also the reason why he dared to replace Fang Xuanling at this time.

It was also the opportunity he had been waiting for.

But in this way, Fang Xuanling was indeed wronged.

After all, it has not been a year or two since the Han Dynasty planned Goguryeo, but when the harvest time was approaching, Li Er replaced Fang Xuanling.

While he was feeling guilty, Empress Changsun appeared outside the hall.

Looking at the familiar Liangyi Hall, Empress Changsun felt a little strange, she gave a wry smile, and Changsun walked forward.

Li Er, who heard the notification, also smiled.

In fact, he has been waiting for his eldest grandson. Ever since he replaced Fang Xuanling, he knew that his eldest grandson would definitely come.

Back then, she was also the one who strongly recommended Fang Xuanling, otherwise, Changsun Wuji would have come up long ago.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty, for making this great achievement." Empress Changsun said with a smile, "Since the former Sui Dynasty, I have conquered Goguryeo several times.

Today, Your Majesty's achievements in surpassing the heavens, destroying his court food in one battle, and making our Han family a grand event in the whole world, is indeed a great achievement that has shined through the ages.

It is right to burn books and sacrifice watches to tell the world! "

After finishing speaking, Empress Changsun, bow deeply.

Seeing this, Li Er didn't make any unnecessary movements. This was a compliment, and he could bear it.

Just as the eldest grandson said, for countless years, the Han family conquered Goguryeo several times, but they all returned without results. Now, in his hands, Goguryeo has been completely destroyed. What a great achievement?

I dare not say that it is comparable to Emperor Qin and Han Wu, but how many people can compare with emperors later?
When Empress Changsun got up, Li Er smiled and said: "This is definitely not the work of me alone. If there are no frontline soldiers, how can we achieve such a great victory?"

"What Your Majesty said is very true. In order to conquer Goguryeo, countless soldiers of my Tang Dynasty fought bloody battles, and this is how we have the world today. Although I don't know the number of casualties on the front line, I think it must be quite a lot.

At that time, Gao Ming erected a monument on Riyue Mountain, and wrote a letter, "One will succeed, ten thousand bones will die." Now it seems that it is very appropriate. "

Having said that, what she thought in her heart was that if she changed the word again, it might be more appropriate.

Of course, she can't change that word.

Li Er nodded when he heard the words: "It's not just a general... But some things are unavoidable."

He knew what the eldest grandson wanted, or what she wanted, but he couldn't give this promise, and he didn't dare to give it.

Who can say clearly about the future?
If he really wants to get to that step, he won't hesitate, yes, he won't hesitate.

From his standpoint, imperial power is sacred and inviolable, even if that person is his son, this sentence still applies.

He didn't get the answer he wanted, so the eldest grandson didn't say much, and said: "This time, I have wronged Duke Yu. He has been in charge of the Datang Household Department for many years. But at the time of harvest, it is retreating..."

"I wronged him." Without waiting for the eldest grandson to finish his sentence, Li Er continued, "But if you want to open a regular course, you really need some people with high morals and high prestige to convince the public.

If you really want to replace someone else, how many people will be convinced?

Moreover, if Chang Ke goes well, it will be a feat that will be famous through the ages.

Even if it is compared to the perfect world, it is not far behind. "

He was right. The emergence of Chang Ke has indeed established the imperial examination system for more than 1000 years in China. This thing that should have shined in the hands of his daughter-in-law is because of Li Chengqian's pressing every step of the way. Appeared.

Of course, neither of them was talking about Wen Yanbo.

It's just that the husband and wife who have been together for many years have a tacit understanding with each other.

As for Li Er's statement, the eldest grandson actually couldn't refute it. Indeed, whether it was Fang Xuanling or Xiao Yu, these two dared not say anything else, but they still had a sense of fairness.

Especially Xiao Yu, this one, well, it's really hard to find any major problems with him from the public heart.

As for Wen Yanbo, hehe, he really just happened by the way.

Compared with these two, he is still a bit worse in this regard.

Of course, although this cannot be refuted, the eldest grandson still said: "Your Majesty, it is not appropriate for my elder brother to succeed Xing Guogong.

After all, my elder brother is always a relative, and the relative is in power..."

At the beginning, she also used this as an excuse to persuade Li Er and strongly recommended Fang Xuanling, but now when she brought up the old matter again, Li Er waved his hand and said: "As the old saying goes, one does not avoid relatives when one is a virtuous person. If Ji has this ability, why must he bother about whether he is a relative?

In the past, the auxiliary machine may still have some shortcomings, but after a few years of precipitation, he is no longer the original Wuxia Amon.

As for relatives, Wei Qing was a relative during Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty?Is Huo Qubing a relative?Isn't it still the same to open up the territory for the great Han? "

Li Erzhen didn't care about whether his relatives were not relatives. What he valued was ability.

Capable, everything is easy to say.

Changsun Wuji is the best example.

As for foreign relatives, hehe, there are fewer foreign relatives?
Isn't Yin Hongzhi, who was exterminated before, a relative?
The point is that that guy's mud can't support the wall.

As long as there are a few who can be like Changsun Wuji, it doesn't matter even if they are almost there. Li Er actually doesn't mind helping a few to get up. After all, no matter how capable such people are, they are really easy to use.

But this is not nothing.

When Empress Changsun heard the words, she actually understood and didn't say any more.

Seeing that the eldest grandson did not speak, Li Er also breathed a sigh of relief.

For his eldest grandson, his feelings are different. The two of them are familiar with each other and have experienced too many things together. If possible, he does not want to have too much conflict with his eldest grandson.

Of course, if he really reaches that point, he doesn't know if he can still not forget his original intention.

……

On the other side, Duke Qi's Mansion.

Wang Dequan came at the appointment.

He actually didn't care whether he could meet Changsun Wuji, to put it bluntly, he just did it for others to see.

But he didn't expect that Changsun Wuji would entertain him grandly. As the envoy of Ming Dynasty in Chang'an, he naturally wouldn't embarrass Li Chengqian.

And outside the gate of the mansion, the old servant had been waiting for a long time, and when he saw Wang Dequan, he also said with a smile on his face: "Your envoy's visit to the humble house is really luxuriant."

Wang Dequan smiled without saying a word, thinking, if your Duke of Qi's mansion is full of humble houses, then there are probably not many high-ranking families in this world.

But he was just repeating these words in his heart, and it was impossible to say them out.

"Old man, you are being polite. It is an honor for me to be the Duke of Qi's guest. It is reported that the guests who visited the Duke of Qi recently almost smashed the threshold of the Duke of Qi's mansion."

For such a joke, the old servant also smiled.

Indeed, ever since Changsun Wuji returned to the center, there has been an endless stream of visitors.

It's just that Changsun Wuji didn't see any of them. During this period of time, he deliberately kept a low profile. If it wasn't for Wang Dequan's sudden visit, he might not have planned to meet any guests years ago.

And his attitude did make many people praise him or her.

"Please envoy, my lord has been waiting for you for a long time." After speaking, the old servant made a gesture of invitation.

Wang Dequan didn't say much anymore, he also wanted to see what the old fox Changsun Wuji was planning.

Since Changsun Wuji invited him this time, he naturally had some goals of his own.

Not to mention anything else, at least we need to find out the general attitude of Changsun Wuji.

 I'm going to pick up the wind, brothers, wait for my good news!
