Traveling through the early Tang Dynasty starts with hanging

Chapter 981

The atmosphere was a bit embarrassing. In fact, similar incidents were not uncommon throughout the ages. It happened in most dynasties, but Li Shan's situation was a bit special.

Before the Tang Dynasty, among the famous generals who were suspected by the king because of their outstanding military exploits, Han Xin was the most famous. The era is incomparable to the sum of other generals under Liu Bang.

But Li Shan was different, his contribution was really not so high that the emperor would be afraid. Apart from other things, Li Yuan was confident that he had a son who would definitely overwhelm Li Shan.

Although Li Shan was not as self-deprecating as Wang Jian, nor as proud as Han Xin, he chose to give up his military power before the war was about to end perfectly, which also made Li Yuan have more trust in him.

In fact, the key is still an old problem. Li Shan is too young, so it is really not easy to arrange.

Pei Shiju wished that Li Shan was the reincarnation of Huo Qubing. He also made great contributions to defeating Hu and was also deeply trusted by the emperor. Why wasn't Huo Qubing afraid of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty?

Die early!

Counting the years, Huo Qubing died of illness at the age of 24, Li Shan won the crown last year, and is 21 years old this year, and there are still three years left.

Yang Gongren tentatively asked, "Your Majesty, there is currently a vacancy for the Secretary of the Ministry of Officials..."

For more than a year, Yang Gongren, the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, has been concurrently held by Zhongshuling Yang Gongren, and it is not impossible for him to say that there are vacancies... The other positions are a bit low, and the chief and deputy chiefs of the three provinces are full.

Li Yuan hesitated for a moment, military talent and administrative ability cannot be equated, what's more, the position of Minister of the Ministry of Officials is too important to let a young man who was crowned last year take up the position...

Princess Pingyang on the side interjected, "Huiren has a unique vision, so it's hard to be elected as Cao Zhongren."

After a moment of silence in the hall, Chen Shuda echoed, "It's really not right."

Yang Gongren didn't say a word. Among Zaifu's family background, his Hongnong Yang family and Pei Shiju's Wenxi Pei family are the most outstanding... and the Handan king is good at digging talents. The article "Ma Shuo" is praised, but Actually has a bad reputation in this area.

Although there are descendants of Li Kai, Zhang Wenguan and other aristocratic families around him, Li Shan chooses more reckless characters, such as Su Dingfang, Zhang Zhongjian, Qu Silang, Hou Hongtao, etc. In this battle, he subdued another Hu general. The posture of the general is now the commander of the personal guard.

It is not in the interests of the aristocratic family to have such a style of acting.

Pei Shiju, the oldest person in the hall, yawned quietly, he was too lazy to be distracted by such things... I really hope that guy is really His Majesty's illegitimate son.

If that is the case, if you try to turn the tide several times, and the three Khans before and after the Turks were all defeated by him, and there is such a legend as Xiaoguan on a snowy night, then of course you will be promoted... What about controlling the sixteen guards generals, come one more For any general who is above the prime minister, it is best to get Xu Jian's mansion, and then he can fight the king of Qin to the death.

At this time, Li Yuan also noticed that Pei Shiju was a little mentally weak, "Hongda is a little tired?"

"The minister is getting old." Pei Shiju sighed, cheered up and said with a wry smile, "I intend to return home as an official."

Li Shimin sneered in his heart, he was not defeated, the prince did not ascend the throne, Li Shan is now in the limelight, do you, Pei Shiju, dare to become an official?
"Let's do our best to eat extra meals. Tomorrow, we will send a famous doctor to the home for recuperation." Li Yuan: "Then Hongda thinks that Huairen can take any job?"

Pei Shiju glanced at Li Shimin, and suddenly remembered that when discussing how to arrange Li Shan, it seemed that King Qin had never spoken.

"Before the expedition, the King of Handan originally served as Minister of Agriculture, so His Majesty has the trust and restraint of the Beiya imperial army." Pei Shiju said with a smile: "Why don't you take the original post first when you return to the court to cultivate yourself?"

The corners of Li Shimin's mouth twitched invisibly. This old fox is really good at it. How to arrange Li Shan's return to Beijing? Both Ji and Du Ruhui hope that Li Shanneng will once again be in charge of the Beiya Imperial Army.

If Li Shanneng was able to control the Forbidden Army of the Beiya, it would be beneficial to the actual suppression of the East Palace, the maintenance of the suppression of the situation in Chang'an, and even to the Tiance Mansion, but this suggestion cannot be made by himself.

Well now, Pei Shiju recommended Li Shan to reinstate... Li Shimin inevitably became vigilant.

Originally, Li Shimin's plan was to start with Princess Pingyang...but now that Pei Shiju is ahead, I'm afraid that the third sister will not speak up.

In fact, it is indeed impossible for Li Yuan to reinstate Li Shan. This is not because of Li Shan's ability, but because Chai Shao is impeccable in all aspects, so there is no reason to continue, not to mention that Princess Pingyang is still here.

For other things, Princess Pingyang will support Li Shan, but now she can only keep her mouth shut. On the one hand, it is because her husband is the one who controls the Beiya Imperial Army, and on the other hand, she does not know Li Shan's next plan.

Everyone else shut their mouths, but Li Jiancheng was a little ready to move, but Pei Shiju gave the prince a look and calmed down the prince.

Pei Shiju felt a little helpless, if he now accused Li Shan of being attached to the King of Qin, the crown prince might feel that he was paying for the public for personal gain. If it was before the battle of Tiantai Mountain, Li Jiancheng might still believe it, as long as Pei Shiju had no shame in revealing Li Dewu's affairs.

But now... his son and nephew have all died in Huating. Even if Pei Shiju exposes the matter of Li Dewu and uses it to point out that Li Shan is attached to the King of Qin, his credibility will be greatly reduced. After all, from the outside, Li Shan and King Qin There is no apparent relationship between them.

Those Wei Ting and Wei Zheng who had a good relationship with Li Shan must have felt that it was because of their personal enmity that they used the crown prince to seek revenge.

"Then let's put it on hold for now and wait until Huairen returns to Beijing." Li Yuan felt that Li Shan might have some plans, that young man had always predicted things before he returned to court the year before last, and he had probably chosen the position of Secretary of Agriculture.

But Li Yuan fulfilled his promise three months ago, and canonized Handan King Li Shan as his successor prince. Although he is the same as the county king and the king of the state, his status is half a rank higher than that of the prince.

In other words, among the adults in the whole world, only Li Yuan and his three sons have a higher status than Li Shan... After all, although Li Yuan's other sons have also been granted the title of prince, they are all little kids.

At the same time, Li Yuan ordered all the prime ministers to discuss together, and choose Li Shan's name... the king of single characters.

Generally speaking, single-character kings are princes, and county kings are double-character names, such as Huaiyang King, Rencheng King, Huai'an King, etc., but in this dynasty, there are also precedents for single-character county kings. One is Zhao Junwang Li Xiaogong , and the other is Luo Yi, king of Yanjun.

If Li Shan knew the news, he would have sincerely declined Li Yuan's kindness. After all, in the original sky, Li Xiaogong was later changed to the king of Hejian during the Zhenguan period, and Luo Yi's head was cut off early.
