After Lin Jianyue settled down, he immediately summoned Wang Gui alone.

Li Qinian was a little depressed. Lin Jianyue did not live in the palace or his family. It didn't matter. He was Lin Jianyue's biological father-in-law and was the first person to support Lin Jianyue. Shouldn't he be the first to discuss the future major events?

Seeing his eldest son, Lao Shen, who was not in a hurry to drink tea, Li Qinian was furious.

However, because of Li Qinian's self-control, Li Zili has been closer to Lin Jianyue and has done a lot of things. He has a good status in the Yan Prince's Mansion and is almost middle-aged. It is not easy to drink like he used to call him around.

"Zi Li, you have had a lot of contact with Your Highness in recent years. What do you mean by Your Highness? Now that there are many people supporting him, you won't be looking down on our Li family!"

Li Zili understood what his father meant, wasn’t he the first to talk to him? Li Zili thought the opposite of his father, and felt that this was a manifestation of believing in the Li family.

"Dad, don't think too much. My son thinks, this is a major matter that concerns the overall situation of the world. In the future, our Li family is better off. In the army, Li Fei is now the commander of the cavalry and controls the most elite cavalry. Qu Shangqun is the commander of the Wuji Army, Li Jizhong is the commander of the enemy situation department, and Li Jiyong is the commander of the vanguard battalion of his highness. He is not considered to be Wu Zhong and other middle and lower-level generals of hundreds of middle and lower levels. He is already very large. Insider Yang Di is in Huaidong, and Li Shangxin is in charge of Jingxi Road and Huaixi, and they are both the chief officials. What should you do to trust and use the Li family? The most important thing now is to cultivate and take good care of Jingyu and Jinghao. This highness has thought of the front and ask grandpa to go to Luoyang to teach Jingyu in person. This is a big deal. Dad, you have been working hard for so many years. Why don't you retreat. You lead the establishment of a college, and your son helps you handle some trivial matters..."

Before Li Zili could finish her words, she was interrupted by Li Qinian in anger.

"Another thing, are you so stubborn and not obeying your father? Retreat? Yes, now your highness is full of talents, but who is as caring as our father and son? There is no doubt about the loyalty of our Li family. Liu Bingyun and Han Yuheng are better, Wang Gui, Ma Yan, and Chu Qing, who dares to say that they have no other thoughts? We have to help Your Highness look forward to the country! You are in your prime and want to retire, so who will protect our Jing Yu in the future?"

Li Zili was so amused that she could not help her. What kind of escort? His father is much younger than him and is more supreme. What can he do in the future? After all, he still can't bear to give up the power in his hands and wants greater power. Li Zili was worried. If this continues, no matter how kind your Highness continues, something will happen.

I met Wang Gui in private in the study room, so I didn’t have to show my awe. I thought that I had become a veteran of the three dynasties in Daning and witnessed the ups and downs after the migration south. Now I have to work in the new dynasty again, Wang Xiang sighed in his heart.

Lin Jianyue didn't say anything more politely, but went straight to the point.

"Liu Bingyun's ability is extraordinary, but I think he is not as mature and persistent as the old man, and the Jiangnan in the Central Plains is unified and the territory is vast. He still needs to be unified in governance and control. I hope he will work hard for a few more years to help me."

"Your Highness can trust me and do your best, but Mr. Liu Bingyun cannot put him in the place. I will not work for a few years, and I will still rely on Mr. Liu and the others in the future."

Wang Gui knew very well about Lin Jianyue’s meaning, and he still had the task of continuing to train Liu Bingyun.

Lin Jianyue nodded and said, "Although the new dynasty has not been established yet, the center is still to be established. What suggestions do you have?"

"I wonder where Your Highness wants to build a central hub? Can the government office be the same as Ning Chao?"

Lin Jianyue smiled and said, "Most of them have not been captured, and it is not suitable for the central construction. The place where you and I are is the central land. As for the official office, please use the original one for the time being! It will be changed in the future, but there is no need to hurry now."

Wang Gui immediately understood Lin Jianyue's meaning. People in the north of Jianning would not be happy, and people in Jiangnan would not be satisfied in Luoyang and Kaifeng. Lin Jianyue asked how to make personnel arrangements, and the focus was on personnel arrangements in Jiangnan, especially the chief officer, because Wang Gui himself wanted to follow Lin Jianyue.

"Li Qinian is outstanding in ability and is quite popular. It is better for him to take charge of Jiangnan. What does Your Highness think?"

It is quite popular? It is because of many followers! The Li family is already very powerful and it is time to balance it.

Lin Jianyue shook his head and said, "Kaifeng Prefecture has an important status. I want to transfer my father-in-law there. The Li family is a big family in the Central Plains, and many things are convenient to handle. Currently, the people in charge of Jiangnan are the best people in Jiangnan."

Wang Gui frowned and said, "The people in the Central Plains are in charge of the Central Plains, and the people in the Jiangnan are in charge of the Jiangnan. If this continues, it will form an interest group that is too big. I'm afraid it's inappropriate!"

Lin Jianyue smiled and said, "The Central Plains and Jiangnan are all decided at first. Doing so now is conducive to stabilizing people's hearts. However, what the old man said makes sense. We must prepare for the future. Central Plains and Jiangnan have been isolated for a long time and need communication. Middle and lower-level officials can be reconciled with each other. The old man and Mr. Liu will make specific arrangements based on the circumstances in the future."

"Since this is the case, we should not avoid relatives. Ma Yan is my student. He has extraordinary talent and knowledge, broad mind, virtuous and generous. He has been with His Highness in the Central Plains for a long time. Why would he be the leader of Jiangnan?"

"It's just my wish, so I will do it according to the elder's opinion!"

Ma Yan is capable, Lin Jianyue knows that there is no problem with loyalty after multiple investigations. The most important thing is that as Wang Gui's most promising disciple, he has a high prestige among Wang Gui's followers in Jiangnan and can suppress them.

Lin Jianyue needs Wang Gui to take the initiative to propose it, and there is joint and several liability for recommendation.

Fortunately, Wang Gui is old and experienced. He basically figured it out in such a short time without preparation, and immediately decisively proposed the candidate.

A promising and independent monarch is very different. Wang Gui sighed a little about Lin Jianyue's rapid progress and he already had the conditions to be a mature emperor. Wang Gui was actually under pressure and was a little uncomfortable.

The matter is not finished yet. Following Lin Jianyue is both a core and a think tank, we must propose suggestions and strategies to solve the problem. There is also military affairs after the internal affairs are over.

"Shumi Cao can be regarded as my father-in-law. He is good at military strategy. He has a large number of imperial guards and has strong combat power. It is not very good to stay in Jianning forever. Do you have any suggestions?"

The problem is again. It is not easy to be a serious official. Jianning's imperial guards were the imperial guards of the Ning Dynasty in the past, but the core central army in the future would not be them. If they come down from the clouds, they will have problems if they don't handle them well.

"With Zhennan Army on the side, the Jianning Imperial Army has more than hundreds of thousands. The old minister suggested that the imperial army be divided into three, one can follow His Highness north, one can go south to Liangguang Road, and the other can stay in Jianning. Those who stay in Jianning can be incorporated into the unified command of the Zhennan Army."

After splitting up, the strength will be weaker. Some people who stayed behind are watching, and others are on the road of marching and fighting, and they survive the fittest and gradually change their ideas. Those who are truly capable will have more opportunities.

Lin Jianyue smiled. It would be great if Wang Gui had this attitude. He initially called himself an old man, but now he calls himself an old minister.

"My boss is really a loyal minister! After the imperial guards are settled, most of the work in Jiangnan will be completed. I can also go north to meet Li Chongshan. The imperial guards are treated not low, so we can tie the belts, and it cannot be discounted. Don't worry, the old man, it won't take long, money and food are not a problem."

Wang Gui and Liu Bingyun are different. We are used to hearing Lin Jianyue call himself me. Wang Gui is respectful and cannot change his old ideas, so it is a bit unpleasant.

"Even if your highness doesn't call me now, he should call himself an orphan. Otherwise, he will be afraid that someone will blame the old minister, saying that the old minister does not understand etiquette and has not fulfilled his responsibilities."

"A person's status is not supported by titles. In the past, some people were just grass-headed kings! They couldn't wait to call themselves lonely and widowed. But since the old man said that, I will pay attention to the formal occasions. What should we call them privately or what, haha!"

Wang Gui couldn't agree and laughed. Forget it, let's talk about the serious business!

"The old imperial guards who went north suggested moving their families to Luoyang, near these places in Kaifeng. Now there is a lack of population and an old imperial city. It can be resettled. The army is easy to accept and feel at ease. The part that goes south can be led by Cao Shaozhen himself. His prestige is suppressed, so there should be no problem."

Lin Jianyue was very surprised. It seemed that it was the right decision to choose Wang Gui to continue to take charge. Lin Jianyue personally poured Wang Gui a cup of tea and said, "In the future, with the elders help me, it will be much easier. Please give me more."
