Chapter 11 Li Longji’s Troubles(2/2)
Shop? Do these businesses require people?
With so much livelihood, will the people of Kuizhou live better or worse? If outsiders make trouble at the ferry, should they stand behind the envoy to support them, or help outsiders destroy the prosperity of Kuizhou Mansion?
Various types of livelihood?
Isn’t the answer very clear?”
In a daze, Zheng Shuqing seemed to see Li Linfu lecturing in front of him. The governor murmured to himself: "With the help of your father's grace, you will be the prime minister one day."
……
Chang'an, Daming Palace, inside the Zichen Hall. Emperor Li Longji of the Tang Dynasty was holding his forehead, looking at the vermilion pillars in the hall where several people were hugging each other in a daze. The disturbance of state affairs and the chattering of family affairs only made him want to escape from this suffocating place.
The palace.
Originally, his beloved Concubine Wu Hui had been whispering that she wanted to establish the longevity king Li Xuan as the crown prince. But now there is already a crown prince named Li Ying, how can he establish another crown prince?
Not to mention that Li Ying has been the prince for twenty years.
The court was not worried. Pei Yaoqing was replaced and Li Linfu took his place as the minister. In the three-phase structure, there was still a lack of a prime minister. Li Longji wanted to promote Zhang Shougui, the governor of Youzhou, to return to the court and serve as Tongzhongshu's disciple.
Third grade, but met with fierce opposition from Zhang Jiuling.
Cui Xiyi, the new governor of Hexi Province, reported to the court that the previous governor of Hexi Province, Niu Xianke, was well versed in government affairs. Under his management, the Hexi vassal town had full treasury and well-equipped military equipment. He had the talents of a prime minister and an assistant. He hoped that the court could appoint him
Its promotion and reuse.
At this time, Niu Xianke had gone to Shuofang to serve as the general manager of Shuofang's march.
After seeing Cui Xiyi's letter, Li Longji was very generous and directly proposed to transfer Niu Xianke back to the capital to serve as the Minister of the Sixth Ministry. In fact, he wanted to observe Niu Xianke and, if suitable, directly promote him to the phase.
However, this appointment was also fiercely opposed by Zhang Jiuling.
Zhang Jiuling's reason was that Niu Xianke was only familiar with Hexi affairs and was not necessarily qualified to be prime minister. He started as a junior official in Hexi and rose up step by step. His abilities could only shine in Hexi. Once he arrived in the capital, he would not be able to serve as prime minister.
Can't cast.
This is a true statement, and it is also a true statement that can only be said by a veteran with extremely rich experience in government affairs.
Li Longji reluctantly agreed to Zhang Jiuling's suggestion, but was very annoyed inside.
The emperor always hopes to have monopoly of power, and whatever he says is what he wants! How can it be inappropriate for a minister to tell him all day that this is not possible and that he does not want it!
Today, Li Longji was thinking about whether to replace Zhang Jiuling with an obedient one in the Zichen Palace, or even... let Li Linfu do it alone as the prime minister first. If it works, then he won't have to do it every three or four years in the future.
There has been a change of prime ministers every year.
In Li Longji's view, it is actually very tiring to deal with these courtiers. You must be familiar with the tempers of these people, be good at using these people to do things, and be able to control these people to prevent them from misbehaving and prevent them from doing things all the time.
Things that don’t suit the emperor’s will.
"The saint, Zheng Shuqing, the governor of Kuizhou, ordered people to send goods worth fifty thousand guan, as well as an urgent official document."
Gao Lishi, who was nearly fifty years old, walked gently into the Zichen Palace, came to Li Longji and whispered, handing the official document in his hand to him.
Nowadays, Li Longji has begun to slack off in politics. If the urgently delivered official documents are sent directly to the palace, Gao Lishi will read them first and find them valuable before passing them on to Li Longji. As for the official documents that go through the court channels, they are sent from the three provinces.
The six departments processed it before submitting it. Gu Kuang's official document from Hongliandao had been delivered for several days and had been processed long ago. Li Longji didn't even know what Gu Kuang said in the official document.
"Uncle Zheng is indeed talented in governance, but Mr. Zhang is old."
After reading the urgent document, Li Longji sighed and said to Gao Lishi: "Lishi, write an edict for me and send it to Zheng Shuqing to ask him if he can help me get more money. Next year, the Yuan Dynasty
Festival, I want to celebrate it well."
