Prince of Chaos

Chapter 358
"Compared to his father, Li Rusong is more disciplined. At least his humility is better than Li Chengliang's."

Zhu Changluo put down Li Rusong's performance report, and he said this to Dong Qichang who was sitting in Ciqing Palace.

When Dong Qichang heard that Zhu Changluo praised Li Rusong, an almost obsequious smile appeared on his face.

Dong Qichang said: "Li Rusong's great achievements are due to His Highness's foresight and good leadership. Otherwise, with the wisdom of my servants, I would definitely not be able to achieve such an achievement."

Zhu Changluo looked at Dong Qichang, he laughed, and then said: "Mr. Dong, you can't compliment Gu like this. Gu is your student after all. As a gentleman, you must always remind Gu to be vigilant. I can't let Gu fall into the glitzy dream of only enjoying meritorious deeds. I don't want Mr. Dong to be like Wei Zheng, dare to speak out, but I still hope that Mr. Dong can tell the truth to Gu in front of Gu, and can "stab the widow" over'."

Dong Qichang smiled embarrassingly. He didn't expect the flattery to hit the horse's hoof all at once. Although the crown prince didn't say anything to reprimand him, Dong Qichang understood that Zhu Changluo was saving face for him.

Dong Qichang said: "Your Highness is right. But what I said is the truth. This time Li Rusong can make such a great contribution, it is still inseparable from His Highness's help. Without His Highness's help, even if Li Rusong has the ability to reach the sky , it is impossible for him to crush the barbarian tribes so calmly."

Zhu Changluo didn't talk about Dong Qichang again this time. After all, Dong Qichang's behavior is like this. If you let him be unsmiling and upright Wei Zheng, it is indeed difficult to set him up.

If a person like him is in modern society, he may be a very good publicist or self-media big V.Because he knows how to please people too well, and he is versatile.

Zhu Changluo said: "Li Rusong has made such a great contribution this time, and the court has to reward him. Can you tell me what kind of reward should be given to Li Rusong?"

When Dong Qichang heard that Zhu Changluo asked this topic, Dong Qichang also hesitated.

Because Li Rusong's rank is already very high now, logically speaking, he has reached the point where there is nothing to reward.

If you give him a reward, then you can only give him the title of Bo and Marquis. Once he is named Bo and Marquis, he may not be able to stay in Liaodong any longer.

After all, in today's Ming Dynasty, there is no prince or honor stationed at the frontier.

Just like his father Li Chengliang, after he was named Uncle Ning Yuan, he could hardly directly and practically control the military affairs of Liaodong. He could only quietly retreat to the second line and become a behind-the-scenes figure.

Although, in the later historical time and space, after Li Rusong's death, a few years later, Li Chengliang's situation in Liaodong was too rotten, and the imperial court had no available frontier talents to send to Liaodong to guard, so he once again let the already octogenarian Li Chengliang in [-] was once again the general soldier of Liaodong.

However, Li Chengliang was already old at that time, how could an old person have the vigor of a young person?

So, after Li Chengliang arrived in Liaodong, in order to stop the situation in Liaodong from festering, he actually made a big foolish trick!

He gave up the Six Forts of Kuandian, and forcibly moved the people in the Six Forts of Kuandian into the pass, thus avoiding a direct conflict with the Liaodong Jurchen.

Although this policy has brought a little stability to Daming, it has endless troubles!

The abandonment of the Six Forts of Kuandian led to a sharp decline in Ming's influence in Liaodong, causing a power vacuum in Liaodong.

At this time, Nurhachi, who was always ambitious, seized this opportunity. With almost no effort, he unified the Jurchen after Daming gave up the Six Forts of Kuandian, making his strength expand again.

This also created an excellent condition for Nurhachi to publicly establish the country and proclaim Khan!
Then Li Chengliang finally couldn't stand it anymore, and he also reached the end of his life.

After losing the burden of Li Chengliang, Nurhachi became even more unscrupulous.

Then one battle after another against the Ming Dynasty gradually witnessed Nurhachi's ambition and Houjin's strength!
In the end, a battle of Saerhu gave Hou Jin a chance to gain a firm foothold.

Since then, Ming Dynasty has truly lost control of Liaodong, making the entire Liaodong occupied by Houjin.

Of course, these are all things in the original historical time and space. Zhu Changluo is now confident that as long as he is still there, he can still supervise the regent of the country. Be a good dog obediently.

Therefore, the most important thing right now is how to reward Li Rusong, how to let Li Rusong continue to stay in Liaodong, and let him continue to awe the tribes in Liaodong with his invincible power.

Seeing Dong Qichang's hesitation, Zhu Changluo also understood that this question was indeed a bit difficult.It's not that someone like Dong Qichang can come up with a complete countermeasure.

Therefore, Zhu Changluo went on to say: "It's getting late, Mr. Dong's class is here first, and now there are still state affairs to deal with, so I won't keep Mr. Dong."

When Dong Qichang heard that Zhu Changluo asked him to leave, he quickly got up, and then bowed to Zhu Changluo: "Your Majesty, leave."

After Dong Qichang left, Zhu Changluo said to Wei Zhongxian, "Go and invite Mr. Shen."

The reason why he was looking for Shen Shixing was because Shen Shixing was the chief assistant of the cabinet. He had been in office for decades, although he was not as courageous as his predecessors.However, this does not mean that Shishi Bank is not as capable as them.

Wei Zhongxian sent someone to the cabinet to invite Shen Shihang over.

After Shen Shixing arrived at Ciqing Palace, Zhu Changluo gave him a seat as usual.

After Shen Shixing sat down, Zhu Changluo asked: "Mr. Shen, the cabinet has also read Li Rusong's success report. Tell Gu how he should reward him?"

When Shen Shixing heard Zhu Changluo ask this question, Shen Shixing thought about it for a while, and then said: "I think the imperial court can enter Li Rusong as the Prince's Taibao."

Zhu Changluo said: "Mr. Shen must have forgotten. After Li Rusong first aided the Korean War against the Japanese, he was awarded the title of Prince Taibao by his father's meritorious service."

Shen Shixing said: "Your Highness has misunderstood what I mean, what I mean is to call Li Rusong back to the capital, and let him be the Prince's Taibao in Beijing, and serve as your Highness's official."

Zhu Changluo glanced at Shen Shixing. He understood what Shen Shixing meant. The reason why Shen Shixing said this was because the genes of civil servants who suppressed military officers were on the attack.They will use false positions to evade a military attache with superior strength and status, so as to prevent military attaches from appearing to use force to violate the ban.This starting point is good, but selfishness is also very heavy.

Obviously, this answer was not what Zhu Changluo wanted.

Because Zhu Changluo knows better than anyone how important Li Rusong is to Liaodong now. If Li Rusong is brought to Beijing at this time, there will inevitably be a short-term power vacuum in Liaodong.

With Nurhachi's personality, he will definitely seize this fleeting opportunity immediately to expand his territory and strength.

Zhu Changluo didn't want to see this result.

Zhu Changluo said: "Gu still doesn't want Li Rusong to come back."

Zhu Changluo made it clear.

Now he just wants Shen Shihang to take the blame for him and let Shen Shihang keep Li Rusong in Liaodong.Then, he reluctantly agreed to Shen Shixing's petition while pretending.
