Chapter 2796 Now let him enter the dynasty, ranking third-rank officials, also
Ma Zhou and Fang Xuanling couldn't help feeling a little guilty when they saw His Majesty's smiling face.
After all, Fang Xuanling, an old ginger who had worked as prime minister for many years, coughed dryly and saluted his Majesty.
"The veteran knows that our purpose cannot be hidden from His Majesty. The veteran believes that Cheng Sanlang is the leader among the younger generation in our dynasty."
"Cheng Sanlang is young and promising, and has made great achievements. Not to mention being a Jingzhaoyin, he has been in charge of six ministries, or he has been ranked among the nine ministers. His merits are enough to make hundreds of officials unable to object."
"It's just that after all, Cheng Sanlang is still too young, has a wild mind, and likes to do things as he pleases."
Listening to Fang Xuanling's compliments, Li Shimin was both happy and worried. Sure enough, after the praise, he talked about the boy's shortcomings.
In a word, that kid's character is undecided. He always only cares about the results when doing things, and rarely cares about other people's opinions.
The most important thing is that during this period of time, Cheng Sanlang has done too many things in Luoyang and made so many mistakes.
It made everyone feel that the image of officials in the Tang Dynasty had seriously declined in quality and class in the eyes of ordinary people.
It seems inappropriate to continue to let him work here. In this case, it is better to let him go somewhere.
For the construction of the four modernizations in the Tang Dynasty, he contributed his superhuman abilities.
At the same time, it also allows the ministers and workers to relax, and everyone does not have to be so frightened all the time.
It would also give some peace of mind to the censorship team who were not very big-minded, but were beaten to death by the young and old of the Cheng family, and were disgraced.
Move your eyes to a normal place, instead of pecking at each other with Cheng Sanlang and fighting cocks all day long.
Ma Zhou's meaning is similar to Fang Xuanling's.
Li Shimin fell into silence, although what Fang Xuanling and Ma Zhou said made sense.
However, Li Shimin knew very well that these two ministers were loyal and committed to serving the court and sharing the emperor's worries.
But now, the ministers below are so united in recommending these two as representatives to speak on this matter, so Li Shimin has to consider the deeper meaning.
#####
"Husband, I also feel that it is not that simple."
Empress Changsun carefully poured the boiling water into the white porcelain tea bowl.
Watching the chrysanthemums slowly unfolding in the white porcelain tea bowl, the delightfully red wolfberries, and the ginkgo leaves cut into thin strips, like grass threads.
When paired together, even if you don't drink it, it is very pleasing to the eye.
"Yes, since Ma Zhou and Fang Xuanling's words, the officials in the court have really acted upon the news and held court discussions every day, haha..."
Li Shimin stroked his silver-threaded eyebrows, looked at the warm fire in front of him, and a cold smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"I'm afraid that there are many ministers in the court who are not thinking about how to relieve the court, but how to attract more attention from the prince."
"If Cheng Sanlang is in Luoyang, given the relationship between the prince and Cheng Sanlang, how many opportunities will other people have to get close to the prince?"
Empress Changsun moved the white porcelain tea bowl in front of Li Shimin. She naturally knew that her husband was not resentful towards the prince, but against the petty thoughts of the ministers.
Since the prince took over the government, the relationship between father and son has heated up rapidly. Every time after the prince takes over the government.
The father and son will be together in Wencheng Hall for the day's court affairs, and the prince will handle them first.
As a father, Li Shimin corrected his handling and told Li Chengqian what flaws and mistakes he had made in his decision.
Seeing this father and son face to face in the past, even though they cared about each other, their smiles seemed stiff.
Now that they are able to live in the same room together, chatting and laughing in low voices without being constrained, Empress Changsun is really relieved.
Looking up, she saw her husband squinting his eyes and thinking hard for a long time without saying a word. Empress Changsun moved over, massaged her husband's head with her hands, and asked softly.
"I don't know what your husband's plan is next. Do you really want Chu Bi's virtuous son-in-law to stay away from Luoyang?"
"..." Li Shimin shook his head slowly, and then wiped his face as if he had a headache.
"Of course I'm not happy to be my husband, but the boy's achievements this time are so outstanding, how can he not be rewarded?"
"But now it is not impossible for him to enter the court and be ranked as a third-rank official. But in the court, his father is there. If they, father and son, appear together, haha...hiss..."
Before Li Shimin finished speaking, Empress Changsun, who couldn't control her emotions, had a distorted expression, causing the hands she was massaging to exert excessive force, causing the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty to take a deep breath.
Empress Changsun quickly rubbed the sore spot where Li Shimin was pinched, and she couldn't laugh or cry.
"Husband, please tell me nicely, please don't tease me, okay?"
"Okay, okay, I also mentioned this subconsciously. If we really want the father and son to stay in the court together, it will not only give the officials a headache, but I will also have a headache."
"Since Cheng Sanlang became an official, he has always focused on civil service, but his relationship with those civil servants, haha... But we can't push him to the military ministers."
"Even if the virtuous son-in-law who loves to play cards is happy, Cheng Yaojin, who is obsessed with poetry and calligraphy, is still not happy."
Empress Changsun lost her composure again. This time she did not pinch Li Shimin, but lightly slapped her husband on the back, and pushed her husband hard with her forehead.
#####
"Why don't you, husband, send someone to explore Cheng Sanlang's words and see what our good son-in-law thinks?"
"Well, that's fine. In addition, our Ke'er has made a lot of contributions together with his virtuous son-in-law in the past two years. Now, we should think about how to repay our merits."
"What your husband said is very true, and I also feel that Ke'er has always had a deep friendship with Cheng Qian and Chu Bi's virtuous son-in-law, and she is dedicated to sharing the worries of her husband and Cheng Qian."
"Now, among all the princes, he is the only one who can help the prince..."
The couple were whispering in a low voice. At this moment, outside Wencheng Hall, the cold wind was blowing and howling.
And the same wind and snow are also flying in Luoyang and even the entire Central Plains.
At this moment, a sea-going ship that had arrived from Japan was slowly docking at Dengzhou Pier.
A manager of the Han and Tang Dynasty Commercial Bank jumped off the ship with a very angry look on his face, and met with the manager of the local Han and Tang Dynasty Commercial Bank here.
Not long after, a fast horse galloped straight towards the southwest, aiming directly at Luoyang, the imperial capital of the Tang Dynasty.
At this moment, in the newly built hospital in Doshu City on Tokaido, many wounded people were already lying there.
Many of the wounded were moaning and groaning, and a group of doctors from the Han and Tang Dynasty Trading Firms were currently inspecting the wounded who had undergone surgery and suturing.
