As long as Li Yuanji takes over the post of Shangshu Ling of Daxingtai, Hedong Road, they will have completed the tasks assigned to them by Li Yuan.
As for the follow-up, it will be up to Li Yuan and Li Yuanji to negotiate.
After Li Yuanji heard Xiao Yu's answer, he smiled meaningfully and said: "Since my father has no other intentions, then it is not impossible for me to accept the post of Shangshu Ling of Daxingtai, Hedong Road."
Xiao Yu was a little uncomfortable with Li Yuanji's meaningful gaze, but when he heard that Li Yuanji was willing to take over the post of Shangshu Ling of Daxingtai, Hedong Road, a smile appeared on his face.
He was really afraid that Li Yuanji would be "bad" again and reject Li Yuan's "good intentions" again.
Li Yuan had repeatedly urged them to let Li Yuanji take over the post of Shangshu Ling of Daxingtai, Hedong Road no matter what.
Although Li Yuan did not say how he would punish them after they messed up the matter.
However, Li Yuan sent people from time to time to warn and spread the news. If the matter was handled badly, Li Yuan should not be too good to them.
So they must help Li Yuan get this done.
"Since Your Highness is willing to take over the post of Shangshu Ling of Daxingtai, Hedong Road, I will immediately send someone back to inform the saint."
Xiao Yu spoke without hesitation, he wanted to finalize the matter as soon as possible.
Li Yuanji smiled and said: "There's no rush..."
Xiao Yu was stunned for a moment and said with some anxiety in his heart: "Is Your Highness going to regret it?"
Li Yuanji shook his head and smiled: "I have no intention of going back on my word, I just think that Hebei Road may be more suitable for me than Hedong Road."
This time Li Yuanji no longer intends to refuse Li Yuan's 'kindness'.
Because this time is different from last time.
If he accepts the order from Daxingtai Shangshu of Hedong Road this time, even if it stimulates Li Shimin, the power will be very limited.
After all, he is currently the Shangshu Ling of Daxingtai of Xiangnan Road. After he was transferred to Hedong Road, he only moved horizontally and his status was not much improved.
Li Shimin has already been severely stimulated by Li Yuan once, and if he receives some minor stimulation, he won't have much reaction.
He had previously rejected Li Yuan's canonization of General Zhen Yao, just because he didn't want to see Li Shimin being provoked too much, separatism, mutiny, and the Tang Dynasty falling apart. It didn't mean that he would give up Li Yuan for him because of Li Shimin's mood.
of many benefits.
However, he was not prepared to follow Li Yuan's wishes and become the Minister of Daxingtai of Hedong Road.
He even hoped to be the Shangshu Ling of Daxingtai, Hebei Province.
Because the official administration of Hedong Road has basically taken shape, the interests of various places have also been divided up.
"First Evolution"
The role he can play in Hedong Road is very small.
Hebei Province is different. After being hit by disasters several times, the official system has completely collapsed, and the interests of various places are constantly changing in the hands of different people, without a clear owner.
Therefore, he can play a great role in Hebei Province.
It's just that Hebei Province has suffered a lot. It will take a long time to develop Hebei Province.
But he is not short of time.
"Hebei Road?"
Xiao Yu and Chen Shuda looked at Li Yuanji in astonishment, wondering why Li Yuanji ignored the prosperous Hedong Road and instead ran to Hebei Road, which had been turned into a mess by disaster.
Li Yuanji nodded and said: "Yes, Hebei Road."
Xiao Yu and Chen Shuda looked at each other.
Xiao Yu couldn't help but said: "Your Highness, this matter is not a transaction between merchants and there is no room for negotiation."
Li Yuanji glanced at Xiao Yu and asked with a smile, "Is there room for negotiation? Is it you who has the final say?"
Xiao Yu looked stunned.
Indeed, it is Li Yuan who has the final say as to whether there is room for negotiation, not him.
However, Li Yuanji actually wanted to discuss it with Li Yuan on the issue of appointing a Daxingtai Shangshu Ling. He really didn't know what to say.
A Daxingtai Shangshu Ling is the highest official of a Daxingtai. He governs a Daxingtai as if he were in charge of his own feudal country.
The power is scary, and the responsibilities and heavy responsibilities that one has to shoulder are also scary.
It can be said that a Daxingtai Shangshu Order can directly affect the rise and fall of a group.
Li Yuan had to think carefully when appointing a Daxingtai Shangshu Ling.
Li Yuanji actually treated it like a business deal and wanted to discuss it with Li Yuan?
Xiao Yu slowly came back to his senses, stared at Li Yuanji and said solemnly: "I really have no say in this matter, and I will truthfully report His Highness's intention to the Saint. I will also tell His Highness in time how the Saint makes his decision.
"
Speaking of this, Xiao Yu paused for a moment, and then said seriously: "However, I still want to remind His Highness a few words. A Daxingtai Shangshu Order affects the rise and fall of a group.
Hebei Province has experienced many military disasters and has now become a mess.
Hebei Province can no longer withstand the hardship."
Chen Shuda nodded in agreement.
Li Yuanji glanced at Xiao Yu and asked, "Does the Duke of Song doubt my ability to govern the place?"
Xiao Yu slightly cupped his fists and saluted, but said nothing.
That's what he meant.
They just doubt Li Yuanji's ability to govern the place and don't want Li Yuanji to harm the people of Hebei.
The people of Hebei can no longer bear the disaster.
Seeing that Xiao Yu was silent, Li Yuanji sighed: "I may not know how to govern the place as well as Song Guogong, but I also have many capable people under me who can help me govern the place."
Ma Zhou, Ling Jing, and even Xue Wanshu are all talented people who seek the country.
With the help of the three of them, and Li Yuanji himself knowing some ways to make a fortune, Li Yuanji is still confident that he can manage Hebei Province well.
"Of course I don't doubt that your highness has capable people. I just want to remind your highness not to ruin the people."
Xiao Yu said solemnly.
What Xiao Yu said was a bit harsh, and could even be said to be a bit offensive.
However, Li Yuanji did not care about it, "I have my own plan in mind. Song Guogong only needs to tell my father truthfully what I mean."
After saying this, Li Yuanji added, "If my father cannot decide this matter before returning to Chang'an City, then I will not decide whether it is Daxingtai Shangshu Ling of Hedong Road or Daxingtai Shangshu Ling of Hebei Road."
Take it again."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Xiao Yu and Chen Shuda looked at Li Yuanji in shock.
Is Li Yuanji threatening Li Yuan?!
Li Yuanji is really brave.
Fortunately, Li Yuanji was Li Yuan's son, otherwise they would have been able to prepare and collect Li Yuanji's body.
Li Yuanji was not threatening Li Yuan, he was just bargaining with Li Yuan.
If this matter cannot be settled before returning to Chang'an City, there will be many twists and turns after returning to Chang'an City.
Li Shimin and Li Shimin's people will write crazy letters to stop this.
Li Shimin will probably have a fight with him over this.
He is not willing to fight with Li Shimin yet, nor does he want to deal with the series of troubles caused by arguing with Li Shimin and Li Shimin's people.
Since Li Yuan wanted to use him to intimidate Li Shimin, he should help him avoid these things.
"has a problem?"
Seeing Xiao Yu and Chen Shuda staring at him without speaking, Li Yuanji asked.
Xiao Yu and Chen Shuda opened their mouths, smiled bitterly and said nothing.
Xiao Yu stood up first, bowed and said: "I know what Your Highness means. I will tell the saint truthfully. I will retire first."
Chen Shuda also stood up and bowed.
The two people fled out of Li Yuanji's tent as if they were running away, as if they didn't want to wait any longer.
…
After leaving Li Yuanji's tent, Xiao Yu sighed with complicated expressions, "He really... dares to say anything."
Chen Shuda nodded in agreement and sighed: "That is to say, the saint dotes on them. If the saint does not pamper them, they will never dare to say such things to the saint."
Chen Shuda was also considered a prince, and he knew that the emperor's character determined everything about the princes.
If the emperor is kind to the princes, the princes will naturally be more arrogant in front of the emperor.
If the emperor is harsh to the princes, the princes will have to behave themselves in front of the emperor.
Li Yuanji was very lucky to have met a kind emperor.
He is different.
"He must have guessed the saint's intention, so he dared to be so presumptuous towards the saint."
Xiao Yu said thoughtfully.
Although Li Yuanji pretended to be stupid in front of them from time to time, Li Yuanji's thoughts could not be hidden from them.
Chen Shuda nodded again and said: "The sage's intention has never changed. He can guess the sage's intention to make him General Zhenyao, and naturally he can also guess the sage's intention to make him Daxingtai Shangshuling of Hedong Road.
intention."
Xiao Yu sighed: "His Royal Highness King Qi was not so smart in the past."
Chen Shuda couldn't laugh or cry and said: "Not only is he smart, he is so smart that it's hard to resist."
In Chen Shuda's opinion, 'gaming' with Li Yuanji is much more tiring than 'gaming' with Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin.
Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin have clear goals. Although they like to talk in roundabout ways, they don't speak "wild words". Therefore, even if Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin's thoughts are difficult to guess, he can guess a little bit.
Li Yuanji is different.
Since Li Yuanji became smarter, no one can guess what his purpose is.
Not only did he like to mince words when speaking, but he also often said "wild words", which shocked him.
Therefore, he really couldn't guess what Li Yuanji was thinking.
"Do you think the saint will agree to King Qi's request?"
Xiao Yu asked with a wry smile.
Chen Shuda thought for a moment and sighed: "The saint will probably agree."
Li Yuan wanted to support Li Yuanji and check and balance Li Shimin, but he didn't really want Li Yuanji to govern.
Hedong Road and Hebei Road are both east of Shaanxi Road. No matter which Daxingtai Shangshu Ling you serve, you can achieve the same effect.
So Li Yuan had no reason not to agree.
"Saint..."
Xiao Yu sighed.
He kind of wanted to 'complain' about Li Yuan.
He felt that Li Yuan was just messing around.
Li Shimin became powerful, which affected Li Jiancheng, and even vaguely affected Li Yuan. What Li Yuan should do most is to constantly weaken Li Shimin and help Li Jiancheng become stronger.
Only in this way can Li Shimin be suppressed.
But Li Yuan did not do this, but supported Li Yuanji to challenge Li Shimin.
Now that Li Yuanji has been supported, let’s not talk about whether he will challenge Li Shimin.
If Li Yuanji is also thinking about that position.
So how should Li Yuan respond?
The two sons with heavy military forces were eager to attack Chang'an City. Li Yuan, let alone letting Li Jiancheng take over, even his own throne may not be secure.
