In the days that followed, Li Shan finally relaxed. The main reason was that he finally knew why Li Yuan was endlessly testing whether there was any collusion between himself and the East Palace... Thinking of this, Li Shan couldn't help but scold him. A few words about Sumu.

But mother Su is having a hard time now, and is forced to recuperate at home. Although Li Shan said in front of the emperor that it was difficult to get up due to physical discomfort, she only said that she was worried about her son... Li's daughter-in-law had no choice, but Ling Jing came to let her go. If you say something, there is no need for Li Shan to take the blame.

But even so, Li Shan sent a letter to Su Dingfang, because he was afraid of being peeped...Li Yuan may not be able to do such a thing, so Li Shan was frank in the letter, and our friendship is placed there Yes, neither clinging to the East Palace nor leaning towards King Qin, and His Majesty is now in his prime, do we have to make a choice at this time?
Ling Jing sighed after reading the letter, you, Li Huairen, actually said that you were not good at charming? !
Your Majesty will be 60 years old next year, and you still say that you are in your prime? !

Where is your face?

However, Li Shan's happy life was not over for a few days. He was summoned by Li Yuan again on April [-], because the Lingzhou Army did not take any action. Su Dingfang should soon receive an order to recall Chang'an, and Dou Gui The action was very fast, and Yinzhou and Suizhou were recovered in just a few days.

With so many positions, those who want to become an official, those who want to be transferred, and the talents needed by the court, all of these must be quickly decided by the official department, and the secretary of the official department is concurrently held by Zhongshuling Yang Gongren. Li Yuan, please resign as Minister of the Ministry of Officials... The Ministry of the Central Secretariat is too busy.

Therefore, Li Yuan really adopted Li Shan's bad idea and created an organization similar to Cao Qigui, hoping to sort out a list as soon as possible. This organization is not a formal government office, and there are a total of eight people.

Shang Shuxing Zuo Pu shot Pei Ji, Zhongshu Ling Feng Lun, Menxia Provincial servants Chen Shuda and Pei Shiju, Zong Zhengqing Li Xiaogong, King of Zhao Jun, Zheng Shanguo, Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment, Tang Jian, Minister of Huangmen, and finally Wei Siwang Li Shan.

Li Shan was also beeping in his heart, Li Yuan is not doing human affairs!

Do the math, Pei Ji, Pei Shiju, and Zheng Shanguo are all direct descendants of the crown prince, while the king of Qin is Feng Lun, Chen Shuda, and Tang Jian. There is no way to force him to express his opinion. In this way, the decision-making power will probably fall on Li Shan.

So, when he walked into the gate of the Ministry of Officials, Li Shan felt Pei Shiju's deep gaze... Let's see what you do this time!
Where is the point of discussion?

It's not their business to be the head of the Lingzhou Road Marching. This needs to be discussed in the Liangyi Hall... although most of you can participate.

The level of county magistrate is also not under discussion. Although the power of county magistrates in Tang Dynasty is much greater than that in Ming and Qing Dynasties, after all, looking at Guanzhong, county magistrates are still too low.

As for the selection of the assistant officer in the state capital and the Hussar general in Zhechong Prefecture, it is not the point. These official positions do not play much role, or they do not have much power.

Therefore, the focus of the discussion, and the focus of disputes among the people, are Xiazhou, which was renamed Shuofang County, Yinzhou and Suizhou, which were recovered, and the chief officials of Yanzhou and Longzhou, which currently have no chief officials.

Li Xiaogong sat in the corner, squinting his eyes as if dozing off, occasionally exchanging glances with Li Shan who was surrounded in the middle, in fact, both of them knew in their hearts that if they really wanted to fight, the East Palace could not compete with King Qin, and the reason was very simple. The lineage of the King of Qin is full of talents, but there is a shortage of talents in the East Palace.

It's not that the East Palace lineage can't find a few candidates who can serve as the chief official of the state capital. After all, Li Jiancheng has been in the East Palace for nearly ten years. There are not many such candidates, but there are many.

The key point is that these state capitals will become the front lines facing the Turks. Once the war starts, they will inevitably lead the army to participate in the war. Therefore, the chief officer must not only be a talented person, but also a general, and this is precisely the weakest part of the Eastern Palace.

But it is impossible for Donggong to give up, because after all, it is in the pass. Once it can be won, it will definitely be the backbone of the supporting faction... To put it bluntly, if Li Jiancheng really raised troops and imprisoned Li Yuan, even if he failed to kill Li Shimin. If many of his direct descendants serve as the chief official of the state capital, they might block the road and successfully capture Li Shimin who fled to Lingzhou or Luoyang.

Chen Shuda recommended Cao Guogong Li Shiji as the governor of Xiazhou. Zheng Shanguo shook his head. After Li Shiji returned to the Tang Dynasty, he was first defeated and captured by Dou Jiande, and then he was beaten by Liu Heitai. How could he be worthy of such a heavy responsibility!

Pei Ji recommended Xue Wanche as the governor of Xiazhou... Donggong also knew that Li Yuan could not appoint Xue Wanche as the commander of the Lingzhou Road Marching Army, but Tang Jian kindly reminded Xue Wanche with a smile that Xue Wanche was also defeated by Liu Heitao back then and was sent back.

Li Shan listened with a blank face, thinking that this was no different from the brothers in the dormitory in the previous life arguing about which female student in the class had the best figure and the most beautiful appearance.

Pei Shiju squinted his eyes and looked at Li Shan, "His Royal Highness will write "Ma Shuo" next year, and he is the best at learning talents. I wonder if there is any recommendation?"

Li Shan replied with a gentle smile, "The juniors are less talented and less educated, how can they compare with Pei Gong who is ranked Cao Qigui?"

"His Royal Highness King Wei is too humble. Su Dingfang, Zhang Zhongjian, and Hou Hongtao are all good generals."

"In this way, Mr. Pei is too modest." Li Shan still smiled gently, "The younger generation has repeatedly made military exploits and defeated the Turks in the past few years, and all of them are recommended by Mr. Pei."

Pei Shiju's white eyebrows twitched, and he scolded this little fox for being difficult to deal with. These words made him unable to speak... Li Shan was planning a plan in Shandong back then. After all, he didn't have a formal identity. It started as acting magistrate, and it was Pei Shiju who recommended Li Shan.

Zheng Shanguo didn't know why Pei Shiju was aiming at Li Shan, but after thinking about it for a while, he looked at Li Xiaogong and said with a smile: "The king of Junjun Zhao defeated Bashu, destroyed Nanliang, Pinglingnan, Dingjianghuai, there are many famous generals under his command, I don't know what he wants Which ones?"

You guys are noisy, don't disturb my sleep, okay!

Li Xiaogong complained in his heart, with a smirk on his face, "The Duke of Xingyang County should know that this is all the merit of acting on behalf of the Duke, and he dare not claim it in vain, dare not claim it in vain."

Well, a heir king and a county king are only willing to be dumb...then we can only continue to quarrel, and it happens that there are three on each side, evenly matched!
Li Shan listened for a while, and his heart moved, maybe he could do something, but he had to wait, the time had not yet come.

After all, most of them are the chiefs and adjutants of the three provinces. They quarreled until they found out that they could not continue to quarrel, and there would be no time for any more quarreling, so they agreed to fight again tomorrow... No, the discussion officially started.

Lee Hyo-gong was sleepy when he went out.

Li Shan was drowsy when he went out.
