Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 2871 Dispute
Just one title shows Li Daozong's embarrassing situation in the official office.

It is true that Li Daozong made outstanding achievements, and participated in many battles against Liu Wuzhou, Wang Shichong, East Turks, Tuyuhun, etc., and made great military achievements for the unification of the Tang Empire and the expansion of territory. king.His Majesty Li Er once commented that Li Daozong was as famous as Li Ji and Xue Wanche.

However, no matter how great a hero is, he may be invincible on the battlefield, but he may not be able to sway freely in court battles.

In the yamen, there are turbulent forces and interests, how difficult is it to cut through the mess quickly?The use of the hopeless and unfavorable military tactics in war may not be effective in the yamen battle, especially Li Daozong is the great Tang clan, and he was once a member of the Guanlong nobles. Now, of course, he can follow His Majesty Li Er to raise opposition The banner of Guanlong, but he is deeply involved, and it is difficult to deny his relatives and do business in an official manner.

Due to both the involvement of oneself and the stubborn resistance of the opponent, it is reasonable to be difficult.

……

Fang Jun then looked at Linghu Xiuji, smiled and said: "You don't need to be polite, Minister Linghu. I came here today because I was confused and asked for advice to solve the puzzle."

Linghu Xiuji naturally understands what Fang Jun's so-called "confusion" and "maze" are, but this matter is handled by him alone, so naturally he can't back down at this moment, so he can only bite the bullet and say: "The lower officials are humble and have little knowledge. I'm afraid I can't solve the confusion for the Duke of Yue."

"Haha."

Fang Jun laughed, pointed to Linghu Xiuji and said to Li Daozong: "It is said that Linghu is honest and honest, and handles things well, but this Linghu master doesn't seem to have Linghu's inheritance. Slippery, I am familiar with this trick of shirking responsibility in the officialdom, and I don't know how Linghu Jixin taught it."

"Ji Xin" is Linghu Defen's name, generally it can only be called by friends of the same generation, and it is not impossible for younger generations to call it, but in order to express respect, most people should call it "Ji Xingong", or "Pengcheng Xiangong" by his official title Calling him "Mr. Pengcheng" and calling him by his name like Fang Jun is unavoidably disrespectful.

But Linghu Xiuji knew the grievances between this guy and his father, so it would be good if he didn't point and scold each other, how can he expect him to be respectful?
Anyway, it's not too much, Linghu Xiuji felt that he should endure it, and said with a dark face: "What Duke Yue said is biased, I don't understand what it means."

Fang Jun patted his thigh lightly, raised his voice and said: "Very good! Since you don't understand, then I come to ask you why the appointment of Pei Xingjian was proposed by the Ministry of Civil Affairs by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, but the Ministry of Officials refused to issue it for so long. As for the personal statement, if the affairs of the Ministry of Civil Affairs are delayed due to this, who will bear the responsibility, and who can afford it?"

The officials outside had already listened to the commotion in the duty room with their ears pricked up. Now when they heard Fang Jun's aggressive questioning, they couldn't help jumping in their hearts, and secretly shouted: Sure enough!

This Pei Xingjian was not only Fang Jun's younger brother, but also a key talent of His Highness the Crown Prince. As a result, he was blocked by the Ministry of Officials when he was appointed to sue him. Of course, this guy couldn't help but want to call him.

It's just that even the Minister of the Ministry of Officials has nothing to do about it. I don't know how Fang Jun can subdue the Guanlong family headed by Linghu Xiuji...

Linghu Xiuji already knew Fang Jun's intentions, so he wasn't surprised and flustered at the moment. He had already prepared a draft, and calmly replied: "Pei Xingjian's appointment and prosecution was indeed suppressed by the officials, and it was the officials who wrote it. manage."

He didn't shirk responsibility, and he couldn't shirk it.As the leader of the Guanlong family in the Ministry of Officials, if he admits to shirking responsibility at this time, then his political career will almost come to an end.

A person who doesn't even have a responsibility, who will trust you, continue to use resources to push you to occupy a high position, and even go one step further?
"However, please understand that the Ministry of Officials has its own procedures for handling affairs, and the various departments cooperate with each other, especially when it concerns such an important official position as the doctor of the Ministry of Finance. The procedures cannot be sloppy. It is necessary. Although the Duke of Yue is a noble and distinguished man, this is an internal procedure of the Ministry of Officials, and you have no right to intervene."

Everyone outside was sweating for Linghu Xiuji.

What you are facing is Fang Er's stick. Although these words are neither humble nor overbearing and full of backbone, how can Fang Er be reasonable?

Fang Jun smiled instead of anger, stared at Linghu Xiuji, and said slowly: "It may be okay to use these words to fool those who have just entered the officialdom, but take them out in front of someone and say, Minister Linghu, are you right?" Do you look down on someone?"

Linghu Xiuji bit the bullet and said: "That's not the case, it's just that Pei Xingjian's qualifications, grades, and assessments are flawed, and they need to be reviewed urgently. It may be delayed until now. Don't misunderstand the matter and the wrong person."

Pei Xingjian on the side was expressionless.

Li Daozong drank tea slowly, his face was very ugly.

He entered the Ministry of Officials as a majestic county king, but he was constrained everywhere, and he was pushed against the wall by these juniors from Guanlong from time to time, which was really embarrassing.

At this moment, Linghu Xiuji was even talking about the procedures and regulations in front of him, why did he take him as the Minister of the Ministry of Officials in his eyes?

Simply deceiving!
If it wasn't for worrying about the large-scale conflict between the royal family and Guan Long, he would even have wanted to push these bastards out of the gate and kill them one by one...

Of course, he absolutely cannot do this kind of thing. After all, the Li and Tang royal family is also a part of the Guanlong nobles.

However, although he can't do it, Fang Jun can.

At this moment, he was drinking tea, holding back the anger in his heart, but kept looking at Fang Jun, thinking to himself that this stick came aggressively today, and was beaten back by Linghu Xiuji like this, why didn't he get mad?

He thought that Fang Jun came here with anger, and made it clear that he was going to "kill a lot", but he didn't expect that this guy was not angry at all, he still looked at Linghu Xiuji with a smile, and asked, "Pei Xingjian was the mayor of Huating before." History, and also the ship envoy of Huating Township, in charge of sea, road, state diplomacy and foreign trade, with outstanding achievements and outstanding contributions. Come and tell me what is meant by "qualifications, grades, and assessments are flawed"? What else do you say "needs to be reviewed urgently", Pei Xingjian was born The Pei family of Hedong, you have a first-class family status, what else do you need to examine?"

Although Huating Town is Fang Jun's fiefdom, it is not his private property. It just enjoys the "food town" of the local people and has no jurisdiction. Therefore, Chang Shi is an official of the court and eats the salary of the court.It's just that Huating Town was poor and desolate at the beginning, but it was Fang Jun who developed it by himself, which is equivalent to forcibly opening up a prosperous and prosperous place on the territory of the Tang Dynasty, so it has unparalleled prestige.

But Pei Xingjian was indeed an official of the imperial court, not a private person brought in by Fang Jun, so Pei Xingjian had to have a share of Huating Town's many achievements no matter what.

It was even said that Pei Xingjian also served as the shipping envoy of the city, nominally the highest official of the shipping department of Huating Town, but in fact he was also in charge of foreign shipping, with extremely heavy power.

It is reasonable for such an official to be promoted after being transferred back to the capital, and this achievement is enough to instantly kill more than [-]% of the officials in the capital. If there are flaws in this, which official in the entire Tang Dynasty is still eligible for promotion?

Although the imperial examinations are on the rise in the Tang Dynasty, they still cannot replace the previous official selection system in a short period of time. The "nine-rank Zhongzheng system" handed down from the Wei and Jin Dynasties is still the mainstream of official selection. However, Pei Xingjian's own abilities, talents, and achievements are not necessary to be reviewed.

Therefore, the reason Linghu Xiuji said cannot stand at all.

Linghu Xiuji's face turned red, knowing that this guy in front of him looks rough and unruly, but in fact he is the most shrewd, and his various sophistry can't convince him at all, so he straightened his heart, gritted his teeth and said: "This is the official As for the procedures of the yamen, the subordinate officials do not need to report to the Duke of Yue."

Pressing Pei Xingjian's confession, this matter is essentially against the procedure, and the reason is naturally unreasonable, but he can't admit his mistake under Fang Jun's questioning and honestly offer the confession with both hands, then he can only Fang Jun prevaricated with the reason that Fang Jun "has no right to intervene".

In fact, Fang Jun really has no right to ask.

The yamen of each department in the center of the court have their own regulations for handling affairs. If you are not satisfied, you can go to Yushitai or even Dali Temple to file a complaint, but you must not dictate in the yamen, otherwise what is the majesty of the court?If everyone could come to the door to criticize and question, each yamen would not have to do business, and would only care about wrangling all day long.

But who is Fang Jun?
I came here today to solve the problem and suppress this group of Ziguanlong disciples, so naturally I won't let it go...
