Just when Feng An was devastated by what happened to his son, Chen Shuda and Xiao Yu were also chatting over there.
After Xiao Yu sat down with Chen Shuda, he joked: "I didn't expect that you didn't give Feng Ang any face."
Chen Shuda glanced at Xiao Yu expressionlessly, and said very indifferently: "Why should I give Feng Ang face?"
Xiao Yu was stunned for a moment, then hesitantly said: "If I remember correctly, you Chen family are also eating a bowl of rice from shipping. If you don't give Feng An any face, aren't you afraid that Feng An will destroy your family's job?"
Chen Shuda didn't even glance at Xiao Yu this time, but still said indifferently: "Ms. Chen is the Chen family, and I am me. Mrs. Chen eats the rice from the sea, but I eat the rice from the imperial court. I
You have to save your own job first before you can save Chen's job.
If I can't keep my own job, does it matter whether Mr. Chen can still have the job of Shanghai Yun?"
Xiao Yu was immediately speechless by Chen Shuda's words.
Indeed, people clearly understand priorities.
They had to eat from the imperial court first, and then they had food from the sea.
If you can't even hold the bowl of the imperial court stably, you have no right to hold other bowls.
They are backed by aristocratic families, and they use the huge size of the aristocratic families to squeeze out other competitors and get a share of the water and sea transportation.
But there are many people getting a share of the pie, and it's not just their two families.
Among the wealthy families who handle water transportation and sea transportation, they are the only ones who handle it most steadily.
The reason why they are so stable that no one dares to covet them is because the two of them are the prime ministers of the Tang Dynasty. They can not only target their opponents through the means of wealthy families, but also control their opponents to death through official means.
of.
If they didn't have this identity, no one would be afraid of them. What happened to the Bolingcui clan today would most likely happen to their clan as well.
When Feng Ang was sandwiched between them and Li Xiaogong and others, he would not keep a low profile and say nice things, but would fall in all directions towards Li Xiaogong.
Although Feng Ang still turned to Li Xiaogong when speaking, which meant to offend Chen Shuda, this just proved that Feng Ang was a smart man who knew how to do things and speak well.
You must know that the world today belongs to the Tang Dynasty and the Li family.
The second generation head of the Li family was sitting in the middle of the hall. After the conflict between the Li family and Chen Shuda, if Feng An adopted a method of not offending both sides to deal with the problem, it seemed that no one was offended in the end. In fact,
But he offended the biggest man in Datang.
Don't offend Li's people, only offend Chen Shuda, which is the best solution.
First, he proved his loyalty to the Li family and showed the second generation head of the Li family that he would stand by the Li family no matter what.
Secondly, he lifted Mrs. Li high and stepped on Mrs. Chen, thus preventing Chen Shuda and Li Xiaogong from becoming a mortal enemy due to a quarrel.
Even if Li Xiaogong would be unhappy with Chen Shuda because of today's incident, Li Xiaogong would not mobilize an army to take revenge after being reconciled by him.
After all, he had already helped Li Xiaogong earn back his face. If Li Xiaogong had a grudge and wanted to take revenge, it would look a bit petty.
Regardless of whether Li Xiaogong is a narrow-minded person or not, as long as he has a little bit of political acumen, he will not go to war with Chen Shuda, an important minister, because of such a matter where he has already regained face.
Although the friendship between Chen Shuda and Li Xiaogong, as well as the relationship between the two parties in the court, would not lead to a big fight over such a matter.
But Feng Ang, a foreign vassal who didn't know all the internal affairs of the capital, was able to come up with this kind of solution as soon as the conflict between them happened. It was quite impressive.
Xiao Yu realized that he had not distinguished the priorities, so he stopped discussing this topic and changed the topic, "Although Feng An didn't say anything explicitly today, he secretly didn't save you face. What are you going to do next?"
Chen Shuda looked at Xiao Yu as if he were a fool and said, "I am a prince of the country and a foreign vassal with a lot of troops. Can I do whatever I want?"
Are you afraid that you have misunderstood my authority?
It is true that I am the prime minister, but I am not the only prime minister in the Tang Dynasty.
The most important thing is that although we, the prime ministers, are inferior to one person, there are actually many people who can ride on us, right?
If we are too arrogant, we will die miserably.
When Xiao Yu heard this, he rolled his eyes and ignored Chen Shuda.
Chen Shuda can no longer get along with him. He has begun to hide in front of him and is unwilling to tell the truth to him when things happen. He should communicate more with Ren Gui in the future.
…
Li Yuanji sat lazily on the couch, holding a wine cup in his hand. He watched the quarrel between Chen Shuda and Li Xiaogong with a smile, and watched the reactions of all of them after the quarrel with a smile.
Overall, it is quite good.
They were all friendly and didn't roll up their sleeves.
This is much better than the old gang in Prince Qin's Mansion.
If the old members of Prince Qin's palace were here, let alone a quarrel, they would even fight for a position.
Injury and disability are inevitable.
As for the verbal conflicts and inner calculations, that's not important.
Anyway, as long as it doesn't hurt anyone or cause disability, there is room for negotiation.
"Come! Lords, please drink!"
After Feng Ang and his son Feng Zhidai finished reminiscing about their past with great emotion, Li Yuanji said a few words and invited all the ministers in the palace to have a drink.
After three rounds of drinking, when everyone was almost done drinking, Li Yuanji dragged Feng Ang and talked about everything in Jiaozhou.
First, he asked about the customs and customs of Jiaozhou, as well as various general managers in Jiaozhou, and the gains and losses during the governor's reign, and then asked a lot of questions about Baiman.
Finally, he asked Feng Ang if he had any difficulties that needed to be solved by the court, and gave Feng Ang a few words of encouragement, asking Feng Ang to continue his efforts and help Tang Dynasty Mu protect Jiaozhou.
Although these words are still mere words, they must be said, and they must be said from the bottom of their hearts.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Otherwise, what would a superior say when talking to his subordinates, and talk about women?
That's Li Yuan!
Although subordinates would prefer it if it were more informal, this is a formal occasion.
In addition, if you show your unbearable side in front of your subordinates, you will easily lose your authority in front of your subordinates.
Especially for foreign vassals like Feng An, who are far away from the sky and the emperor, if they lose their majesty in front of him, then he dares to rebel.
Therefore, in front of subordinates like Feng An, he not only had to speak in a serious manner, but also maintained his dignity at all times.
After chatting for about an hour, Li Yuanji stopped talking and asked Feng An to go down and rest first, recharge his batteries, and then talk again later.
Feng An naturally agreed wholeheartedly, but after agreeing, he raised an unexpected question.
To be precise, it was unexpected by Li Yuanji.
"Are you going to visit Li Jing?"
Li Yuanji stared at Feng An with some surprise and asked.
Feng An hesitated and said: "If your Highness feels it is inappropriate, then forget it..."
The reason why Feng Ang told this matter was because it would easily cause misunderstandings if he, a foreign vassal, came to Beijing and met privately with a general who could lead troops and win battles at court.
So he simply told the matter openly and openly, success would be a success, failure would be a failure, and there was no need to worry about being suspected.
Li Yuanji shook his head and said: "I don't think there's anything wrong, I just don't understand why you want to visit Li Jing?"
Li Jing probably will never have the chance to go to Jiaozhou in this life, so Feng An has nothing to worry about when he goes to visit Li Jing.
Feng An told the matter openly again, which showed that Feng An did not have any bad intentions and was not afraid of being known, so he had no reason to stop it.
The only thing Li Yuanji wanted to know was why Feng An wanted to see Li Jing.
If it was because Li Jing had been to Jiaozhou and had some friendship with Feng An, then when Feng An came to Beijing, why didn't Li Jing stand up and say that he was going to welcome him?
If the two of them had no friendship, then Feng Ang wouldn't look for anyone, but why would he ask to see Li Jing?
Feng An hesitated for a moment, then smiled bitterly and told what Li Jing had done in Jiaozhou.
Most of the people in the hall were stunned when they heard this.
After all, everything Li Jing did in Jiaozhou at that time was only contained in a few sentences in the document submitted to the court, so the people in the court only knew about the document and did not know too many details.
It’s not that the human corpses in the court were not even paying attention to such things, but when Li Jing and Li Xiaogong conquered Nanliang, it happened to be the time when the three parties of the court and Wang Shichong and Dou Jiande were fighting.
At that time, all the eyes of the imperial court were on the north, on Wang Shichong and Dou Jiande. They had no time to pay attention to what was happening in that ungrateful place in Jiaozhou, nor did they have the time to care about how much moisture was in the documents handed over by Li Jing and Li Xiaogong.
.
Anyway, for the imperial court, it was enough that Jiaozhou was surrendered. As for how it was surrendered and how many people were killed, it didn't matter at all.
As long as the imperial troops and horses do not suffer too much loss, it is not worth paying attention to.
After all, Dou Jiande led an army of 100,000 to fight over at that time, and wanted to form an alliance with Wang Shichong in Luoyang to attack the Tang Dynasty together.
If you have the leisure, you might as well pay more attention to Dou Jiande.
Maybe I can think of one or two little tricks to reduce Datang's losses and increase Datang's confidence in winning.
So the government and the public really didn't know much about what Li Jing had done in Jiaozhou.
Li Jing almost killed people in Jiaozhou, so he didn't want to overly promote his cruelty.
In addition, he was only Li Xiaogong's deputy at the time. If he became the master, where would Li Xiaogong's face be?
So Li Jing didn't mention it, and no one took the initiative to ask, and even fewer people knew about it.
Later, first Liu Heita rebelled, then the Turks came, and then Fu Gong rebelled. The court was too tired to deal with it and had no time to pay attention to what Li Jing did in Jiaozhou.
