Chapter 646: The veteran thinks that he, Cheng Sanlang, can take on the role of Taichang Temple Shaoqing (please subscribe and vote)
The courtiers were not willing to talk about the rewards at the beginning. After all, the Three Character Classic, an enlightening work of the Tang Dynasty, was right in front of them.
They had all spoken highly of the Three Character Classic in the past few days, but at that time no one expected that this would be an enlightening masterpiece of great accomplishment.
It was actually the handiwork of a member of the Wu family who was born in Cheng Chubi, and they even began to doubt it.
Maybe the third son of the Cheng family, who likes to make trouble, might have figured out that if everyone knew from the beginning that he was the author of the "Three Character Classic".
It is very possible that those civil servants who disliked their father and son would not be willing to praise the Three Character Classic.
That's why the father and son came up with such a sinister trick, after the "Three Character Classic" had been hyped up and turned into a popular book.
Jumping out again to gain fame, well... it must be like this. Only this explanation can make sense.
And looking at Cheng Yaojin, the ferocious-looking, fat and muscular bully in the court, who was as happy as a flower at the moment, it made everyone feel sick.
But then, His Majesty actually said that he would promote this boy Cheng Chubi to become the Young Minister of Taichang Temple, which immediately caused an uproar among the civil servants who had just been arguing with Cheng Yaojin for a while.
Chu Suiliang immediately saw the look Changsun Wuji cast, and immediately stood up and spoke impassionedly.
"Your Majesty, Cheng Taichang is too old and powerful, and it is really inappropriate for him to suddenly rise to a high position."
"Yes, I also feel that Cheng Taichang has been very favored by His Majesty for less than two years since he took office (Cheng Laosan, who is far away in Lishan Tangquan Palace, said that this terminology is very problematic)."
"I treat him very kindly, but the young minister of Taichang Temple is a critical position and should not be held by anyone who is not a prostitute."
"Yes, he was only a fifth-rank Taichang Cheng before, and suddenly he became the Young Minister of Taichang Temple. This is really a bit too much. I also feel it is inappropriate, and I would like to ask your Majesty to take back his order."
Seeing those civil servants popping out one by one, General Cheng, who was slightly disappointed that he had lost another three months of salary, but was now happy that his own son had been promoted and made a lot of money, was not happy anymore.
He lowered his face and rolled up his sleeves and was about to appear, but was stopped by a hand stretched out from beside him.
"Zhijie, don't end up..."
Cheng Yaojin turned his head unhappily and saw that it was Li Jing, and then he saw the number one man in the Tang Dynasty military striding out who had given up his crutches.
"Your Majesty, I have something to report." Li Jing strode out and smiled respectfully at Li Shimin.
Seeing Li Jing coming out of the queue, the civil servants who were originally scornful could only temporarily stop their criticism and looked at this outstanding military minister of the Tang Dynasty with some suspicion.
"Old Qing, just tell the truth." Li Shimin chuckled, nodded encouragingly towards Li Jing and smiled.
"The old minister believes that although Cheng Sanlang is young, his intelligence is so high that it cannot be matched by ordinary people."
"You may not know that the role played by the four disciples of Cheng Sanlang in our Tang Dynasty's conquest of Tuyuhun was not just as simple as saving the lives of the soldiers."
"With their presence, the morale of Wu Ben of the Tang Dynasty has greatly increased. Everyone who dares to fight will kill the enemy with force and fight to the death without retreating..."
"In addition, Cheng Sanlang also provided other strategies for my army to conquer Tuyuhun, so that all the divisions of the Tang Dynasty were calmly deployed, and the victory was determined in one battle."
"Therefore, I think that Cheng Sanlang, the young minister of Taichang Temple, can take on the responsibility."
As soon as Li Jing finished speaking, brothers Xue Wanche and Xue Wanjun, who had completely recovered, also strode out, glanced at the gibbering civil servants with vicious eyes, and said loudly.
"Yes, the lives of our two brothers were saved by his disciples, Cheng Sanlang. We also agree with Li Weigong's suggestion."
"I also second the proposal..." Li Ji, the Minister of War, also stood up.
"I second the proposal..." Qin Qiong strode out of the squad and said loudly.
"I am able to ride my horse and cross the river again to open up new territory for Your Majesty. It is thanks to Cheng Sanlang that I can relieve the pain of my old illness."
All the civil servants watched blankly as the generals stood up to speak for Cheng Sanlang one after another.
General Chai, who had been unconscious in the court before but was now alive and kicking, also stood up and stood up for Cheng Chubi very impassionedly.
Well, it’s okay for General Chai to speak for Cheng Sanlangxi.
But even Li Daozong, a famous clan general, jumped out to stand in for Cheng Chubi, leaving many people confused.
Could it be that this famous general of the clan also had an unspeakable hidden disease that was cured by that boy Cheng Sanlang?
Li Daozong's spine stiffened at the sight of those pairs of eyes full of suspicion and strangeness, but he could only brace up and continue.
There is no way, my wife and Mrs. Cui are close friends, not to mention that my wife's eye disease was cured by Cheng Sanlang.
At the same time, his wife's eyelids were raised again. If he didn't say anything and returned home, he might be complained by his wife.
Sigh... It's hard to be a human being, and it's even harder to be a good man with a family.
Before Li Daozong finished lamenting, Liu Hongji walked out from the side, although now he was standing among the civil servants.
However, his background as a military commander meant that he did not have much contact with those civil servants.
But the question is, what does this guy mean by standing up? After Liu Hongji stood up, he first agreed with Li Jing, the military boss, and then praised Cheng Sanlang.
Then he held on to his already hard waist and stood up straight. If it weren't for that boy, wouldn't I have been lonely in the study for the rest of my life? Therefore, it is absolutely necessary.
Li Shimin was calm on the surface, but his eyes looked a little strange. It seemed that there were quite a few important ministers suffering from hidden diseases in the imperial court...
Seeing all these people standing up one after another, Cheng Yaojin stroked his thick beard like a steel needle with a happy face, feeling very proud.
By the way, is there any guy who has not jumped out of the favor of his own Saburo? Wait for me to kill him with a look, well...
Fang Xuanling was originally peacefully ranked among the civil servants with his eyebrows closed and his eyes closed, but soon he felt as if someone was stabbing his face with a small knife.
Subconsciously he raised his eyelids and looked around, and he saw that guy Cheng Yaojin winking at him frequently.
In an instant, Fang Xuanling felt completely bad. But the problem was that now, all the courtiers who had been favored by that boy Cheng Sanlang stood up.
Come on, I can't let that old guy Cheng Yaojin poke my spine.
Fang Xuanling could only clear her throat, braced herself, stood up, and saluted Li Shimin respectfully.
"Your Majesty, I also feel that what Li Weigong and Li Bingbu said is very reasonable. Cheng Sanlang is indeed worthy of the position of Shaoqing of Taichang Temple."
