The first Taoist priest of the Tang Dynasty

Li Shimin, who returned to Chang'an, has been summoning the generals who came back from the border recently.

From Li Jing to generals like Niu Jinda.

This summons.

That's half a month.

On the contrary, it is the matter of the court meeting, which is still presided over by Prince Li Chengqian and Lu Guogong Cheng Yaojin.

This also made those civil servants more and more unhappy with Li Shimin.

But this was uncomfortable, and it also started to promote some small linkages between them.

Some people even started thinking behind their backs to push Li Chengqian, the crown prince, to the throne.

after all.

Isn't that how the current emperor came to be?

But all these small actions have already fallen into the eyes of Baiqisi under the jurisdiction of Li Shan.

"Your Majesty, although Chang'an has been safe in the past few months, there have been abnormal changes. This is the information report that Baiqisi has received in recent months. Please take a look at it." One day, Li Shan took what he had obtained The informant report was reported to Li Shimin.

in fact.

Even without these informants from Li Shan.

Li Shimin can also know some recent movements in Chang'an City from the hidden guards in Baiqisi.

The hidden guard hidden in the Baiqi Division was cultivated by Li Shimin with a lot of thought.

Moreover, these hidden guards are not bad at skills, and they know how to hide themselves.

After Li Shimin received the informant, he glanced at it casually, "Li Shan, I've worked hard for you recently, so go back and rest."

After Li Shan got the words, he didn't say much, he left the palace and went back to the mansion.

Two days later, the Great Court Conference will be held.

Li Shimin suddenly appeared on the court.

With the sudden appearance of Li Shimin, those civil servants were a little surprised.

"Everyone has worked hard. A few months ago, I secretly left Chang'an and went to various prefectures to have a look. The political affairs in the past few months have been thankful to everyone. From now on, the court meetings will be as usual." Li Shimin saw those with deep hearts The ghostly civil servants had faint smiles on their faces.

Immediately, Li Shimin went on to say: "After I thought about it several times, I revoked Prince Zhongwen's post of Shaobao, conferred the title of Prince Taibao (from the first rank), granted the title of Zhuguo (from the second rank), and conferred the title of Zuo Sanqi Changshi (from the second rank) Three grades)."

"In addition, Zhong Wen was removed from the post of governor of Lizhou, and Zhong Wen was specially appointed as the Great General of the Tang Kingdom, tentatively designated as a first-class official. If anyone in the Tang Kingdom sees the Great General of the Protector of the Country, if I come in person, Zhong Wen will be specially appointed as the emperor's nobleman. Beat the whip of the common people."

"Take off the titles of Li Daoling Dao Ling and Zhong Wen, and specially confer the title of Li Daoling Huguo Daoist and Zhong Wen Huguo Daoist, tentatively designated as Cong Yipin."

Following Li Shimin's series of words, it fell.

The entire court hall immediately burst into a clatter, and there were many discussions.

No one thought of it.

When Li Shimin came back, he didn't say a few words, and the big rewards and seals began.

And the person who is rewarded is all one person.

As for Li Daoling, those who knew him at the scene also understood that it was just an addition.

even.

From these rewards from Li Shimin, they could tell how much Li Shimin liked Zhong Wen.

And this award, except for Zhong Wen's dismissal of the post of governor of Lizhou, all of them are additional awards.

What's more, he created a general who protects the country, and a real person who protects the country.

Even strangely, he directly set the rank of the great general who protects the country as a top grade, and even gave him a whip, and even imprisoned the imperial power and the nobles, and beat the common people of the Li people.

Chapter 791 Fighting for power and profit for the state

"I object, I oppose the Holy Majesty's will. Although Zhong Wen is the crown prince's young protector, the official positions conferred by the Holy Majesty are very different from the rewards I have received in the current court. "Not long after Li Shimin finished speaking, a civil servant suddenly stood up and objected loudly.

the official.

It can be seen from the color of his official uniform.

His official position is not high, but it is not small either.

A county magistrate of the sixth grade.

Those who know this person know why this person speaks out against it.

This person is Zhou Zheng, the county magistrate of Xinfeng County.

Moreover, this person's background is against the Cui family of the four great families.

There is a saying that the four great families are tied to one rope.

Zhong Wen and the four great families have already become enemies.

How could he, Zhou Zheng, not know.

not to mention.

He usually travels with members of the Cui family, the Wang family and other four great families, and he is often invited by the four great families.

And these years.

He, Zhou Zheng, often wanted to play Zhong Wen's idea.

It's just that at that time, he hadn't achieved the post of county magistrate, and he didn't even have a fifth rank.

As the county magistrate, he got Xinfeng County, not far from Chang'an, as the county magistrate through a lot of connections.

As for why he can participate in this court meeting today.

Speaking of which, he had already arrived in Chang'an a month ago.

And his purpose of coming to Chang'an was to work with those civil servants, and through their cooperation, he planned to let the crown prince take charge.

At this time, Zhou Zheng suddenly objected. It is conceivable that once Li Shimin's award was issued, Zhou Zheng did not object, so there would be problems. Moreover, his target, besides Zhong Wen, was the current saint Li Shimin.

not to mention.

At this time, it is the great court meeting.

As long as he, an official of the sixth-rank county magistrate, objected, others would definitely agree.

"The minister also objected. The crown prince is the chief protector. This is the position of the three masters. I suggest that the original position be maintained." After Zhou Zheng's words came out, even Wei Zheng also stood up to oppose.

"I also object." As soon as Wei Zheng finished speaking, Fang Xuanling also stood up.

in less than a moment.

Many people in the civil service department have stepped forward.

even.

Even Prince Li Chengqian and Li Tai both stood up.

It can be seen from here.

It is really rare that these two princes who have been fighting openly and secretly can work together to oppose it at this time.

Wei Zheng objected, because he was a doctor of imperial history.

For Li Shimin's awarding only one or two people this time, I feel that it violates the regulations.

That's why Wei Zheng objected.

He didn't feel that such a reward was a big problem, or he was used to objecting.

Come on.

He, Wei Zheng, didn't want a young man to sit in such a high position.

This is contrary to the unspoken rules of officialdom in the entire Tang Dynasty.

and.

Wei Zheng has always felt that as long as he is a member of the gentry, he has to help a group, so as to resolve Li Shimin's prejudice against the gentry and so on.

In addition, Wei Zheng has always belonged to the gentry family, and Zhou Zheng also belongs to his family.

On the other hand, Fang Xuanling objected, he was Shangshu Zuo Pushe, and he was the prime minister, and the objection was also because Li Shimin did not go through the normal process.

but.

This is a voice of opposition.

Li Shimin's brother-in-law and eldest grandson Wuji are very honest.

He didn't say anything, just stood there quietly, with his head down, as if he was asleep.

On the other hand, the generals.

It seemed that no one stood up, let alone spoke.

This court meeting.

Li Shimin said that he had already communicated with the generals.

As for civil servants, no one knows about it.

After half a day.

Li Shimin saw that no one spoke anymore.

No one stood up against it anymore.

Then he stood up, swept the officials above the court hall, and then walked to the gate of the Tai Chi Hall, and swept the officials outside again.

Li Shimin's eyes were stern at this time, his brows suddenly frowned, and he shouted loudly: "Li Fu, remember, all the officials who resigned today, I allow them to resign and go home to take care of themselves, take back all the imperial lands, and resign and go home The imperial court supported him. The Secretary of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China drafted the regulations for officials who would resign and return to their hometowns in the future, and all officials like today will be treated in this way, hum!"

Li Shimin at this time.

It can be described as burning with anger.

I have only been away from Beijing for a few months, and I want to issue an edict, when did I become like this.

Some people dare to threaten themselves with resignation.

That's fine.

As they wanted.

And as soon as Li Shimin's words fell, the servant named Li Fu hurriedly took a note and wrote it down.

Look at those officials who objected to speaking out.

It can be said that the face is red and white, white and blue.

It's almost green now.

But people like Wei Zhengfang Xuanling and others just stood there in a daze.

They really did not expect that the current Holy Majesty would have such a decision.

Treat this court as a child's play.

But at this time they also knew that Li Shimin was on fire, and no one dared to speak out.

On the contrary, those who said that Li Shimin would resign and go home if he didn't take back the Chengna, their thoughts can be described as painful and bitter.

Just now he was high-spirited, but in a blink of an eye, he became downcast.

"Your Majesty, the ministers just want His Majesty to take back his order, and have no real intention of resigning from office and returning to his hometown. Please also ask Your Majesty to learn from him."

"Your Majesty, I made a slip of the tongue just now, so I ask you to punish me for my slip of the tongue."

"My lord,..."

These people at this time really changed their faces too quickly.

But Li Shimin's eyes were tightly wrinkled.

Li Shan, who was standing on one side, waved to the guards in the distance, pretending to know that Li Shimin was unhappy at this time.

in a moment.

The personal guards had already dragged these dozens of officials away from the Tai Chi Hall.
