Chapter 231 Li Chengqian, who is humble

The Nishang Palace has not been so lively for a long time. The East Palace is crowded with people, and civil and military officials are talking in groups.

Sitting on it, Changsun Wuji and Zhang Xuansu couldn't help but look at them. In just six years, the East Palace not only had an army that could not be dragged over or defeated, but also gathered a group of practical young talents.

, they who have been walking a tightrope can finally breathe a sigh of relief.

Let’s just talk about Qin Huaiyu. At his age, most people in the army hold official positions such as General Lang, and the best one is General Ke Ningyuan. This guy is now a third-rank official. I heard that the emperor is now considering

He was promoted to a full third-grade general. How could such a speed of promotion not make those guys who have been working hard for many years jealous?

"Okay, don't be so polite, just find a place to sit by yourself." After saying that, he immediately waved his hands to everyone who was saluting below. He has never been a person who pays attention to formalities. If he has that time, he might as well do more.

Let's get down to business. Besides, this respect is in people's hearts, not in these vain heads.

Bang bang, after patting the armrests of the chair twice, Li Chengqian said with a smile: "I have been on horseback for a long time. Sitting on such a soft seat makes people not want to get up. Even if Xiao Fu Yi'an is this

The palace is no different.

Common people often say that a farmer wants to change his wife after harvesting three measures of wheat. On this point, you must all learn from Eguo Public School. An ugly wife keeps her treasure close to the ground. A camel walks alone on the Luoguo Bridge. Don’t forget the past. Forget the past.

It’s tantamount to betrayal.”

As the power of the East Palace grew, many of them took up positions as officials at all levels, and were usually surrounded by many subordinates below. It could be said that they were so proud that they could see all the flowers in Chang'an in one day.

People's alertness is often at its lowest at this time, and many people unknowingly deviate from their original track and embark on the road of crime. Li Chengqian has seen many things like this before.

Although he knows that the forest is big and there are all kinds of birds, he has the responsibility and obligation as their lord to uphold these ministers who follow him through water and fire.

Seeing how Li Chengqian was prepared for danger in times of peace, Changsun Wuji, who was sitting at the bottom, felt happy for him from the bottom of his heart. His nephew was not dazzled by the victory in front of him.

After hearing Li Chengqian's admonishment, the officials in the East Palace also stood up and respectfully accepted the order, and said neatly: "I will obey His Highness's order, be careful at all times, and dare not violate it."

"Okay, I have taken note of what you said. This year's promotions and commendations for the six generals have been submitted to His Majesty. I believe it will not take long to approve them. Many of you will follow suit.

Changed official uniform."

After being the prince for several years, Li Chengqian has become very good at using carrots and sticks.

When dealing with these officials, you don’t have to be so high-pressure that they can’t breathe. You have to give people a little bit of hope. No matter how round the cake is, it can’t satisfy your hunger. If you don’t have rice in your hands these days, you may not even be able to coax the chicken.

of.

Of course, the officials in the palace who knew that they would be promoted also laughed. Many of them were selected and promoted by Li Chengqian from various yamen. These officials who were not reused and came from common people believed that in the East Palace,

Working as an errand can be said to be the most correct choice in their lives. There are rewards for merit and punishment for demerits. Unlike other places where there are many shady things about seniority.

"Getting back to the subject, there are three main things to do when I call you here today. The first one is about the six rates. You all know that the six rates suffered serious losses in this Western Expedition, so the recruitment of a large number of new recruits and the selection of generals have become the top priority. Since then, the six rates have been severely damaged.

From today onwards, Chang Shi Fang Yizhi, who is also the right guard, will be responsible for this matter together with Qin Huaiyu. The deadline is three months, and I will go to review it in person."

It was Li Chengqian's deliberate decision to let Fang Yi directly take charge of the right guard. Although many of the generals among the six generals surpassed him in terms of personal strength. He has been sitting in the throne for a long time, and he has a high prestige among the generals and can be the most powerful.

Entering the situation quickly is undoubtedly the best choice for the scarred Six Rate.

"The second thing is about Shandong and Hebei provinces. They say fire and water are ruthless. Although His Majesty did not decree that I should do this job, I still have to do my part.

Haven't the first batch of battleships of the Hangzhou Navy been completed? Immediately give an order to Li Chongyi to stop training and ask him to lead all battleships and supply ships south at full speed to purchase a batch of grain and hand it over to Hebei and Shandong Province Inspector Wei Zheng."

Hearing that Li Chengqian wanted to use the Hangzhou navy to transport grain, Changsun Huan couldn't help but stand up and said, "Your Highness, I have something I don't know whether to say or not." After speaking, he raised his head and glanced at the prince sitting above.

After seeing Li Chengqian nod, he immediately continued: "Are there a few supply ships left specifically to carry goods from Guanzhong and Luoyang and other places? If we stop them all, not only will the businesses that cooperate with us in various places suffer serious losses,

, even the huge financial output of the East Palace will have problems."

What Chang Sun said is not unreasonable. Those merchants have cooperated with Donggong for many years and are all honest businessmen. If their financial path is cut off, not only will they go bankrupt, but those who rely on them to make a living will also lose their money.

To make a living, isn’t it like tearing down the east wall to make up for the west wall?

Li Chengqian, who pondered for a moment, then said: "The original number of supply ships transporting merchant goods remains unchanged, and those merchants cannot be allowed to bear risks that do not belong to them. In addition, Changsun Huan saw a small trick and dared to give a thousand gold rewards for his direct advice."

Hearing what Li Chengqian said, Changsun Huan, who was still a little nervous at first, instantly became happy. After all, he is an official of the East Palace, and everything he says and does should be taken seriously by Li Chengqian. The prince pointed out the lord's fault in public and was punished by the prince.

But what he didn't expect was that Li Chengqian accepted the correction calmly and rewarded him heavily. How could he be so happy?

"Everyone, what Changsun Huan just said reminds me that no one is perfect and no one can guarantee that he is correct. This is why the imperial court has set up Yanguan. From today on, copper cabinets will be set up in all the yamen of the East Palace.

, no matter whether you are high or low in rank, you can write a letter to express your fault, and Naichiro Zhang Zhen and Zhang Hong will be responsible for acting."

Wise Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was blinded by his own willfulness in his later years. He did not want to lose his humanity in power and hurt those he loved and those who loved him.

Of course, Li Chengqian also knew that not all people had the courage and qualifications to face their own mistakes, so he could only let them write anonymously.

"His Highness is so open-minded and open-minded, which is a blessing to the country and a blessing to our ministers. I would like to congratulate the Tang Dynasty and congratulate Your Highness.",
