It was not the first time that Li Po and Chu Suiliang had met, but they had both met before him. Therefore, he felt that Chu Suiliang was a calm personality, a decent matchmaker, reliable in work, and had good literary talent, so he was a very talented person.
.
This time I heard him argue with Liu Zhengyou. His words were sharp, clear and logical, and his eloquence was good, so he was appointed as a regular attendant on the spot.
This was also a sign that he felt that the province under his command was somewhat unstable recently. Changsun Shunde wanted to be promoted to the position of servant, which was echoed by ordinary party members.
Apparently, Changsun Shunde, who had been serving as a servant for several years, could no longer restrain himself, acted too eagerly, and even foolishly wanted to use public opinion to threaten the government.
If it were a foreign court, Li Po would not allow anyone to mess around. Once he found someone making trouble, he would have Wen Yanbo and others deal with it immediately.
But the officials in Menxia Province are all the emperor's attendants, so it's okay to be a little tolerant.
In fact, in his calculations, Changsun Shunde had already been eliminated and wanted to gather a group of people to surround the emperor. What was he thinking?
Just doing this operation is very problematic. Do you think Li Po is a fool? Every time he thinks of this, Li Po has the desire (harmony) to open the small ledger.
Changsun Shunde's ranking in his account book can be said to be rising steadily, surpassing that of Xu Shiji, which is considered to be a very dangerous situation.
…………
Returning to the topic, if Chu Suiliang is promoted to the rank of regular servant of Sanqi, he can maintain the situation in the province together with Du Chuke, Sun Fuga and others.
In other words, it was not time to settle accounts yet, so Li Po had the patience to wait.
Now after a few exchanges with Chu Suiliang, Li Po immediately discovered Chu Suiliang's shortcomings. He was too narrow-minded. As soon as he took Liu Zhengyou's seat, he turned around and wanted to drag his eldest grandson Shunde down.
Is this a sign of loyalty to him? It may have some meaning. Li Po is more inclined to think that this guy wants to take the opportunity to take revenge.
Changsun Shunde didn't have a good reputation in the province or outside the court. Except for his party members who would speak for him, no one else wanted him to take charge of the affairs of his family, right?
This is how Li Po feels. Chu Suiliang's official position is not big, but the things he wants to do are not small. He really tries to find every opportunity, but his methods are... inferior.
Li Po believed that he would never misjudge the person. Over the years, he had always had a unique vision, otherwise he would not be able to sit in this imperial court.
…………
Li Po put away his smile, said nothing, turned and left.
Behind Chu Suiliang, sweat finally broke out on his back. He vaguely understood that the last few words were a bit redundant, and he almost slapped himself in the mouth with regret.
Of course, it was Liu Zhengyou who was about to turn green in his intestines. Several Yulin sergeants came up and knocked off his official hat. His physique was indeed very unique.
It was standing like a stick just now, but now it was slightly touched by someone, and its body became as soft as noodles, and it slipped to the ground.
The Yulin soldiers didn't care so much, they dragged him out like a dead dog and sent him directly to Dali Temple.
What awaits him is not as simple as dismissing him from office. In his words, in addition to making a very reckless explanation of the power structure of Menxia Province, he is also quite disrespectful to the royal family.
In fact, the first person who could not spare him was not Chu Suiliang, but Changsun Shunde.
He was caught by the emperor and had to be beaten with sticks before entering Dali Temple. In order to prevent him from biting him randomly, Changsun Shunde had to put in some effort to calm down the matter.
This is the shortcoming of the gang members. If one of them commits a crime, a whole bunch of them may be drawn out.
Moreover, the person in charge of Dali Temple is Changsun Wuji. His uncle and nephew have already turned against each other, so Changsun Wuji will probably not miss such a good opportunity.
Although Li Po doesn't like his ministers attacking each other due to personal grudges, it is undeniable that court disputes often arise out of personal grudges...
When Changsun Shunde hurried over, the emperor and his men had already left.
It's not that he is not well-informed, it's just that he is not in charge in Menxia Province today.
During the Lantern Festival, both he and Du Chuke had to accompany the king. In the morning, neither of them were there. It was up to them to decide when to come over in the afternoon.
Liu Zhengyou was not holding chicken feathers as arrows, because his eldest son, Shunde, was indeed on duty in the province yesterday. He casually said that during the Lantern Festival tomorrow, His Majesty would go to the city to watch the lanterns, and our people from the province should be there in an orderly manner.
So as not to take care of Yun Yun carefully when the time comes.
In fact, there is nothing to say. Officials from the Menxia Province were quarreling in the government hall and were caught by the emperor. Don't say what you were arguing about or what caused it. If it wasn't a mistake, it was destined to be a mistake.
What's more, Liu Zhengyou also spoke nonsense and was immediately questioned.
For Menxia Province, this was actually a political accident, and Changsun Shunde, as the chief official of Menxia Province, must be blamed.
Changsun Shunde was shocked when he heard the news in his mansion.
Everyone knows that this period is a critical period for him, and being in charge temporarily is a sign of the emperor's trust in him and a manifestation of his official qualifications.
But after Feng Deyi died, he could only add a temporary character to take charge of all affairs under his family, which shows that this kind of trust is limited.
It is said that he entered the Menxia Province earlier than Feng Deyi. At that time, the emperor did not have anyone available, but wanted to reward him for his contribution to the city first.
He has been serving in Menxia Province for four or five years, and has not moved anywhere. At the beginning, he was alongside Feng Deyi and others. Shizhong, Shangshuling, and Zhongshuling were all absent. For these quasi-prime ministers, it was a great opportunity.
.
However, Feng Deyi and Xiao Yu came from behind and took over the position, so Changsun Shunde was naturally very unconvinced.
Feng Deyi had a very bad reputation and was a flatterer. Xiao Yu was a loudmouth and unpopular. How could his eldest grandson be worse than these two people? How could he be so inferior?
In his view, Xiao Yu just took the name of a noble family in Guanxi. The emperor wanted to appease the people of Guanxi and also appointed those from the south. It happened that the Lanling Xiao family had both, so Xiao Yu was allowed to catch up with the good people.
when.
As for Feng Deyi, he got the status simply by drinking with the emperor and making the emperor happy. Compared with Xiao Yu, he was even more miserable.
The current emperor is different from Li Yuan. He is much more rigorous in governing politics. After appointing these two people, he will not be easily replaced. Therefore, the positions of Wen Yanbo, Xiao Yu, and Feng Deyi have become more and more stable.
This also made Changsun Shunde very disappointed. In fact, what he initially aimed at was not the position of servant, but the position of secretary.
He felt that Xiao Yu was prone to getting dizzy, and he might one day be driven out of Chang'an by the emperor like before.
In fact, he soon realized that he was wrong. Xiao Yu was indeed outspoken and as proud as before, and did not take others seriously.
But after all, the current emperor is not Li Yuan. The most important thing is that there is no dispute over the throne. The chance of Xiao Shiwen making mistakes is much smaller. There is not so much to criticize. Xiao Yu is safe in his position as Zhongshu Ling.
