Zhizhang Datang

Chapter 449 Distinction between public and private
Just looking at this arrangement, it is actually not difficult to understand that once Li Chengqian reigns, the situation of continuing to suppress the nobles of the family will not change.

Ma Zhou himself came from a commoner background. Although Cen Wenwen and Zhu Suiliang came from famous families, they were not like the five surnames and Qiwang, and they didn't have much to do with the family officials.

Not to mention Gao Shilian, he can be regarded as the representative of the Guanlong family, and the relationship with the aristocratic family is not very harmonious.

And the four of them are not only important ministers, but also happen to be in charge of the three provinces. They can be regarded as the leaders of all civil officials. It is not difficult to imagine how the family officials will be treated in the future.

And don't forget, when Li Shimin was still alive, he poured all the dirty water of rebellion on those aristocratic family members. With their current reputation as a bit of a smelly street, it would be very uncomfortable to rely on their influence to reproduce their previous glory. easy slightly.

Even though it was a transitional period, he was not afraid to let these aristocratic families make trouble again. It was even more unrealistic to rebel or something. Li Shimin had already made arrangements.

Yu Chigong, the Dinghai Shenzhen in the army, is responsible for the safety of Chang'an City, commanding the troops who have been loyal to Li Shimin and did not participate in the rebellion before, so there should be no problem in ensuring the safety of Chang'an City.

And Zhang Shigui once again took over the position of head of the Xuanwu Sect, personally responsible for the safety of the palace, and he can also keep the water tight, which is a job he does very well.

Lin Sen's father-in-law, Cheng Yaojin, who also showed a decisive side in the previous counter-insurgency, was sent to Luoyang, the eastern capital, to guard it.

And Liu Hongji, one of the 24 heroes of Lingyan Pavilion, who has been relatively silent recently, but has always been Li Shimin's absolute confidant, was ordered to guard Taiyuan.

This is one of the members of the old Li family. When he retired before, he had already served as a general of the auxiliary country, and his actions were very eclectic, and his methods were both good and evil. Just right.

As the only remaining top famous general among the masters, Li Daozong, who is also the famous clan general with the best reputation, is responsible for guarding the front line from Youzhou to Lingzhou.

Any one of them is a super strong general who can definitely be a marching chief, and all of them are ruthless characters with outstanding records.

Whether it is used for external defense, deterring neighboring countries, or internally to prevent possible counterattacks by those aristocratic families, it is definitely enough.

This arrangement can be said to bring the fundamental land of those aristocratic families within reach.

Their county prestige is in the hands of these loyal generals, and they are not afraid that they will make waves.

However, Lin Sen also discovered another interesting phenomenon. Big men like Li Jing and Li Ji were not appointed to this kind of work.

This is not difficult to understand, who made them always rely on their ability to eat, and never get involved in the matter of standing in line.

Correspondingly, naturally, he would not be able to gain the emperor's greatest trust.

Li Jing still wished to see Tianda live with the courtyard door open, Li Ji was even better, and was directly sent away by Li Shimin's order.

This matter was actually a test for him, a matter of life and death. When Li Shimin was still alive, he called Li Chengqian over and talked about it.

If Li Ji went to the post without saying anything after seeing the transfer order, then Li Chengqian could continue to use him.

Just taking advantage of the opportunity of being on stage to call him back is equivalent to showing favor to the God of War, and it will be easy to talk about in the future.

But if he hesitates a little, it means that he has two hearts and is not convinced by Li Chengqian, the new emperor.

Don't say anything, just cut it off, so that you won't be able to use him in the future.

Needless to say, Li Ji is so smart. Not only is he so wise that he is almost a demon, but he is a legendary figure who lives like a time traveler.

After receiving the order, without even telling his family members, he rode on his own horse and rushed to the place where he was working.

Right now, I don't know if he has received the imperial edict from Li Chengqian to let him return to Chang'an City.

Li Jing has done enough to be a bachelor, so he almost demolished all the screen walls and doors of his house to show his innocence. The key is that he is also old, but he has not gone through such a trouble.

Probably because Li Shimin felt that the old God of War would not be needed anymore, and Li Chengqian couldn't move him, so it was better to let him stay in Chang'an City to provide for the elderly.

In addition to recalling Li Ji, Li Chengqian also made some other moves. After all, he just came to power. It is necessary to stabilize the military side first. With force in hand, he can continue to do other things.

He didn't directly seal those influential generals in the army. According to him, if these people didn't make any achievements, it was mainly because they didn't make any contribution to him. Why should he give these people benefits? Well, can't they get into the habit of relying on their own influence and asking him for benefits?

Of course, those few heavy soldiers in hand can be regarded as generals who help him stabilize the country, which must be beneficial.

Xue Rengui and Xi Jun bought those who had saved his life, so naturally they also had appointments.

Xue Rengui was directly in charge of the Xuanwu Gate, while Xi Junmai took over the southern gate of the palace.

While giving them promotions and salary increases, they also took control of the palace in their own hands.

The next step of the future of these two people can naturally be expected, but anyone with a discerning eye can see this.

Of course, Lin Sen was activated again, and this time he finally crossed the seemingly insignificant threshold, but in fact, to many people, it was no different from the threshold of heaven, and finally became a real high-ranking official from the third rank. General Left Prison Guard!The military officer was also promoted by one level accordingly.

Those at the same level as him are all high-ranking officials like the governor of Shangzhou who have been able to take charge of their own affairs, which shows how much they value and trust him.

It's just that his title and honors haven't been promoted for the time being. Li Chengqian intends to leave more room for improvement in the future. More importantly, Lin Sen hasn't achieved any combat achievements in the recent stage. Give him a promotion. It's a little bit unconvincing.

Such things as the development of Iwami Silver Mountain, the opening of the Spice Island, the transportation between the north and the south, and the unity of Feng An, are of real benefit to Datang, but others do not know about it, and it is not convenient to publicize it to the outside world for the time being. There is no way to rely on some achievements to judge meritorious deeds.

For this reason, Li Chengqian called Lin Sen into the palace and explained it while eating the imperial banquet. It can be said that he cared a lot about Lin Sen's feelings.

However, Lin Sen didn't cock his tail because of this, instead, he always kept his position upright.

A good relationship in private is a good relationship, but business is business, and you can't be perfunctory just because the two know each other well, or be proud of being favored.

You still need to do your part well, and even work harder than you did before.Otherwise, it would be easy for others to think that he stole the high position only by virtue of his friendship with Li Chengqian.

In addition, it is also because Li Chengqian is now the emperor after all, and is no longer the former prince. His position has changed, and his perspective on problems must also change.

Since Lin Sen cherishes the friendship between the two, he should be more measured in his actions.It's not a matter of life and death, but a distinction between public and private.
