Chapter 255 The Controversy of Rewarding Zhang Xuan!

Chapter 263 The Controversy of Rewarding Zhang Xuan!
Li Chiying sighed quietly, looked at the excited Li Bai and remained silent.

Li Bai is a person with great ambitions, but because he is too proud of his talents, it is difficult for him to be tolerated by officials.In other words, it was because he himself was unable to integrate into the officialdom. Since he had no way to be an official, he couldn't even talk about realizing his ambitions.

Not long ago, because of Zhang Xuan's recommendation, he became a doctor of Chinese studies who teaches and educates people.

Although he works diligently and fulfills his duties every day, this kind of "work" is far from the great cause of peace and stability in Li Bai's imagination.After a long time, he became a little tired.

Now that he heard that Zhang Xuan had made great achievements in Longshuo, his thoughts began to move again.

Li Bai is definitely a genius, an undisputed genius. It can be said that few people can compare with others in poetry, poetry and literature.But the crux of the problem is that a high level of literature does not mean strong abilities in other areas.If Li Bai was allowed to be a local official and manage local government affairs, it would definitely be a mess.Let alone leading an army in battle.

What Zhang Xuan can do, Li Bai can't do.Li Chiying knew it well, in Chang'an city, no one could understand Li Bai better than Li Chiying.It's just that Li Bai didn't realize it himself. He always thought that he should be a person who can do great things, but he was always depressed.

Li Chiying shook his head, and said softly, "Mr. Lang, are you really going to Longshuo to join Zhang Xuan?"

Li Bai nodded solemnly, "Well, my lady, I must go. Life is too short, if I waste any more time, I will be old and unable to do anything. Why don't you go to Longzhou while your body is still strong?" So do something."

"Governor Zhang and I have a good relationship, and he will definitely arrange for me." Li Bai emphasized emphatically.

Li Chiying let out a long breath, and said with a smile, "Okay, the slave family will leave Chang'an with the Lord, and go to Longshuo together. Where the Lord is, Ying'er will be there!"

Li Bai was startled, hesitantly said, "Lady, the frontier fortress is difficult, and the lady has always been well-clothed and well-fed, how can she bear it?"

"Lang Jun, you and I are no longer young. There is not much time left in our lives. Yinger should stay with you and never leave." Li Chiying gently stepped forward to grab Li Bai's hand, her eyes were full of as if The tenderness of water.

In the first half of their lives, the two missed each other, but now that they are together, Li Chiying doesn't want to be separated from Li Bai.Life and death, sharing misfortunes and blessings together, is the true husband and wife.This is Li Chiying's mentality.So she knew that Li Bai's ability in governing the country was limited, but she still had no intention of opposing Li Bai - just do whatever she wanted, and she would stay with him unswervingly anyway.

Li Bai is not a real nerd, how could he not understand Li Chiying's affection.He hugged Li Chiying into his arms a little excitedly, but he couldn't say a word.

But I heard Li Chiying leaning on his chest and said softly, "Longshuo's great victory, the achievement of opening up the territory, the imperial court will definitely send envoys to Longshuo to commend Zhang Xuan and reward the officers and men. I will go to the lord to fight for it, and let the lord go. Let Long Shuo be a Xuan Fu envoy to reward the three armies."

……

……

Xingqing Palace, Linde Palace.Dachaohui.

It is a rare phenomenon in the history of the Tang Dynasty to hold the Great Court Meeting in the afternoon.

Li Hengqi stood imposingly on the dragon platform, looking down at the civil and military officials who came into the hall in two rows and prostrated at his feet, his spirit was very uplifting.

"Kowtow to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of Jian Guo!"

"My lords, please stand up, without courtesy." Li Henglang said, but sat down slowly.

Yang Guozhong and other civil officials and the generals headed by Chen Xuanli looked at the energetic Li Heng with complex expressions, each with their own thoughts.

Zhang Xuan first achieved a great victory in Shancheng, and then led his army to invade Tubo. With 3 people, he turned Tubo upside down, but he did not lose any troops. This is simply a miracle.And then, he took advantage of the situation and took down Tuyuhun's old place in one fell swoop, a world-class feat that shocked the entire Tang Dynasty!

Today's court meeting was obviously to discuss how to reward Zhang Xuan and the generals of Longshuo.

Everyone knew it well, but no one took the initiative to speak.

The atmosphere in the hall is very subtle, although not dull.

"Ministers and workers, the purpose of my palace to convene all of you today is to announce a major event." Li Heng suppressed the excitement in his heart, and said slowly and calmly, "Since the victory in Shancheng, the governor of Longshuo, Zhang Xuan, led the army to pursue The Tubo remnant army fought in Tubo territory for two months, winning successive victories, annihilating more than [-] Tubo soldiers and horses, capturing and burning down many Tubo fortresses and fortresses."

"More importantly, Zhang Xuan led his army to take advantage of the civil strife in Tubo to take down the old place of Tuyuhun in one fell swoop, wiped out 8000 enemies again, and officially included the old place of Tuyuhun into our Tang Dynasty territory."

"Since the Kaiyuan period, how has our Tang Dynasty ever had such a great victory... As a result of the Tang army, it has been invincible in all battles, and it has been invincible. Make immortal feats!"

"Today's court meeting discusses how to reward Zhang Xuan and the officers and men of Longshuo. I hope that you will uphold the public spirit and express your opinions. I also hope that I can send envoys to Longshuo as soon as possible to reward the three armies for the imperial court to honor their merits!"

Li Heng waved his hand.

All the ministers remained silent.

Li Heng glanced at Yang Guozhong, and said calmly, "What do you think, Prime Minister Yang?"

Yang Guozhong smiled slightly, hesitated for a moment, and said loudly, "His Royal Highness, the meritorious service of Zhang Dadu has rarely been seen since the founding of the Yuan Dynasty. The imperial court should reward and encourage the peerless meritorious service. But in terms of official rank, Zhang Xuan is already an extremely human minister, and his rank is not high. Under the loyalty of the country."

After Yang Guozhong said this, he paused slightly, and while observing Li Heng's face, he glanced at everyone.

Sure enough, the ministers began to discuss in low voices.

How to reward Zhang Xuan has really become a problem.Zhang Xuan's current position and rank are already extremely high, and there is not much room for promotion in the official rank.

Yang Guozhong smiled softly, "Of course, Zhang Xuan is a rare talent in the Tang Dynasty. Not only is his literary talent outstanding, but his military strategy has been proven to be unparalleled in the world. Your Highness, I think that since Zhang Xuan is a leading talent in the army, he might as well use it in military affairs." Then entrust him with an important task. It would be more appropriate to add the title of Minister of the Ministry of War, to work with Zhongshu, and to serve as the general manager of the Lianghe March, and to act as the imperial court's defense against Tubo affairs!"

"This can be regarded as the best use of talents." Yang Guozhong finally emphasized a few words.

Because the third sister Yang's mother and son and Yang Yuhuan are there, it is destined that the relationship between Zhang Xuan and the Yang family is already a relationship of both loss and prosperity, so Yang Guozhong himself naturally tried his best to make it happen.The greater the energy and power of Zhang Xuan, the more beneficial it is to the Yang family. The two joined forces, one piece of paper and one weapon, who can rival the Tang court?

As soon as Yang Guozhong said this, all the civil and military officials in the court gasped.

If such a "reward" is given to Zhang Xuan, Zhang Xuan will become the most powerful person in the Tang Dynasty.The rank of minister of the Ministry of War can dispatch the troops and horses of the whole country, and he has the right to make peace with Zhongshumen, and then he will also serve as the general manager of the two rivers marching - he has command power over the troops and horses in Hexi and Hedong, plus the army and horses in Longshuo, In this way, the number of troops under Zhang Xuan's command will reach more than 20.

Chen Xuanli's mind was agitated, fearing that Li Heng would impulsively agree to Yang Guozhong's request, he immediately stood up and opposed it.

Chen Xuanli bowed and said loudly, "Your Highness, what Prime Minister Yang said is inappropriate."

"There is no precedent in the imperial court for one person to control the soldiers and horses of three towns. It is very inappropriate to give such a heavy weight. Your Highness, please forgive me for speaking bluntly. Fanyang Anlushan has a bad example before, and the imperial court has to guard against it!"

Chen Xuanli's words resonated with some courtiers.Although he knew that Chen Xuanli's words were mixed with his own selfishness to suppress Zhang Xuan, but he stood on the court's standpoint and said them in an extremely high-sounding manner.

An Lushan is an example.Now that the end of Anlu Mountain is too big to lose, and the Tang court has raised tigers, how can it repeat the same mistakes!

Chen Xuanli's words are obvious: If Zhang Xuan is turned into a second Anlu Mountain, then the Tang court will be in danger.

Li Heng raised his eyebrows, but did not express his opinion.

Zhang Jiyong came out of the squad and echoed, "His Royal Highness, although Zhang Xuan has little merit, he is very much the commander of the Longshuo border. He is responsible for defending the country. It is his duty to defeat Tubo, that's all. The court doesn't have to deal with it." It’s too much praise. I think that it’s enough to reward some gold and silver.”

If it is said that Chen Xuanli's words still have some "reasonable" and righteous words, but Zhang Jiyong's words seem to be very unlevel, everyone knows Sima Zhaozhi's heart.

Li Heng frowned, and thought to himself: "This piece of Jiyong really cannot be supported by mud. I wanted to help him up so that he could check and balance Yang Guozhong in the future. It seems that this person is too narrow-minded, without any tolerance and capacity, and it is difficult Become a big weapon."

Yang Guozhong looked at Zhang Jiyong with a sneer, and said in a deep voice, "Consecutive victories over Tubo, annihilating more than [-] Tubo troops, conquering the old land of Tuyuhun, opening up the territory of the Tang Dynasty, such great feats, in the eyes of Mr. Zhang, is 'no more'? Such merits, if the imperial court does not grant rewards, how can it not make the soldiers feel cold? With all these things, who will serve the imperial court in the future?"

Yang Guozhong took a step forward, pointed at Zhang Jiyong and sneered again, "What is Mr. Zhang's intention?"

Zhang Jiyong's face turned red, and he snorted coldly, but he didn't dare to confront Yang Guozhong face to face.

Chen Xilie hurried out to smooth things over, but in fact, in Li Heng's eyes, he was a "peacemaker" who acted as a firefighter for the "princelings" such as Yang Guozhong, Chen Xuanli, and Zhang Jiyong.

"Hehe, what Prime Minister Yang said is true, but what General Chen and Master Zhang said is also somewhat reasonable... The old minister thinks that Zhang Xuan's meritorious service must be rewarded, and His Highness asks for a judgment on this matter!"

Chen Xilie cunningly kicked the ball to Li Heng again. Li Heng cursed "Old Fox" in his heart, but he still expressed his opinion. He had already had a plan in mind on how to reward Zhang Xuan. the means of those who
