Prince of Tang Dynasty

Chapter 541

Gao Ming hadn't had much contact with Cheng Si before, and thought he was a very reliable person, but now he found out after contacting him that he is also a second-hand guy!

"This guy just has a good father, otherwise, he's probably the same as the tiger before I met me, right?"

Thinking of this, Gao Ming suddenly looked into the distance again, and muttered to himself.

"Huzi should be back soon, right? With his achievements, it should be no problem to make him a general of Huaihua."

General Huaihua is a military official of the third rank. This is a status level, just like the military rank of later generations. Although there is no fixed position for such an official position, when it comes to fighting, he will be entrusted with important tasks.

There are many such situations in the Tang Dynasty, because it does not involve too many complicated interest relationships, so it is easier to seal, and the courtiers are easier to accept.

In fact, Gao Ming's idea is similar to Li Shimin's, that is, to be more generous when conferring officials, to be more cautious in conferring titles, and to minimize the number of conferring titles, especially titles with real power that have fiefdoms.

After all, if there are fewer privileged classes, it will be more convenient to manage.

And the most important thing is that the official position can be changed at any time, but the title is not. If the other party has not made any serious mistakes, the title cannot be taken back casually.

Thinking of this, Gao Ming couldn't help but sigh in his heart again.

"Well, if it's possible, I hope that someone can show enough merits that I have to confer titles on him. It's a pity that the capable people in Datang have no successors at present!"

The reason why Gao Ming sighed like this was not because he was aimless, but because he really felt helpless.

There are many famous cases of tiger father and dog son in history, among which Datang accounted for three.

They are Fang Xuanling's second son's wife, Du Ruhui's second son Du He, and Di Renjie's son Di Jinghui.

Di Renjie is only 14 years old, so there is no need to worry about it for the time being, but one of the famous "Fang Mou Du Duan" has died of illness and the other is dying, and their sons did not inherit their talents. This is undoubtedly a very bad thing.

As a time traveler, Gao Ming knew very well that he would not be able to expect the "second generation of officials" from Datang to inherit his father's career, so he could only look for a team by himself now.

If you can't find it, you can cultivate it yourself. The Datang Royal Academy in Jinju was established in this way.

Thinking of Datang Royal Academy, Gao Ming couldn't help showing some smiles at the corner of his mouth.

"After more than a year of development, the Royal Academy in Jinzhou has indeed undergone great changes. It seems that I have to find time to go back to Jinzhou and re-plan the academy!"

Just when Gao Ming was engrossed in his thoughts, Cheng Chusi's voice came from the front again.

"His Royal Highness, we are here, look, the cow is there!"

Hearing his words, Gao Ming looked up immediately, and sure enough, he found two cows tied up in the woods. After seeing the two cows, Gao Ming immediately walked over and inspected them carefully.

After checking, Gao Ming found that one cow had a nose ring, but the other didn't, but tied its head and neck with a rope.

Seeing this scene, he immediately turned his head to look at Cheng Chusi again.

"Are these two cows made according to my requirements?"

As soon as Gao Ming finished speaking, Cheng Chusi immediately nodded his head like a chicken chopping rice.

"Yes, I chose it myself. The one with the nose ring is the most obedient one, and it is also very good at farming, while the other one is the most stubborn. It is usually fine, but as long as it is put on the plowshare, it will lead the plow. If you don't go, you will go backwards, and if you get angry, you will pick people with horns!"

"Hahahaha!"

Hearing Cheng Chusi's words, Gao Ming couldn't help laughing out loud, and clapped his hands while laughing.

"Okay, okay! That's what I want. That's fine. I'll take the two cows away. The rest is none of your business. Go and do your own thing!"

"Hey, good!"

Cheng Chusi agreed and turned around to leave, but he stopped suddenly after walking two steps, then turned his head to look at Gao Ming.

"That...His Royal Highness, how about I help you lead them to the gate of the city?"

Seeing Cheng Chusi's belated look, Gao Ming shook his head with a smile again, and then waved his hand at him.

"No, it's not good if someone recognizes you, so I'll take it by myself. Just do what your father told you, and remember not to expose yourself, otherwise your father will never forgive you."

"Uh……"

Hearing Gao Ming's words, Cheng Chusi seemed to have thought of something, immediately shrank his head, and then nodded vigorously towards Gao Ming.

"Yeah, I know, I'm sure I won't expose it, then, His Royal Highness, I'll take my leave first!"

After finishing speaking, Cheng Chusi cupped his hands towards Gao Ming, then turned and left.

But after walking a few steps, he stopped again. At first, Gao Ming thought he had forgotten something, but found that he didn't turn around at all, but bent down and picked up two handfuls of ashes from the ground and wiped his face .

Seeing this scene, the corners of Gao Ming's mouth twitched again.

"I really never expected that he would still have such a hand. It's too surprising..."

Thinking of this, Gao Ming couldn't help but shook his head helplessly, and then he didn't look at Cheng Chusi, a bastard, and walked back directly leading the cow.

When Gao Ming led the cow to the city gate, it was still early, so he simply drove the cow to the open space next to the city gate to graze, and found a place to sit down, watching the cow while waiting for Li Shimin They come out.

When it was almost noon, there was a noise from the direction of the city gate.

After hearing the noise, Gao Ming looked back immediately, and found that a road had been cleared from the gate of the city where people used to come and go. Two rows of soldiers stood on both sides of the road, as if they were welcoming someone.

Soon, Gao Ming saw two men in fine clothes walking out carrying two golden umbrellas, followed by two maids carrying big fans.

After passing hundreds of people one after another, Gao Ming saw four female warriors walking out of the city carrying Li Shimin's chariot.

Seeing this scene, Gao Ming immediately stood up with a smile on his face.

"finally come!"

After seeing the guard of honor, Gao Ming didn't run over to greet Li Shimin immediately, but followed the guard of honor slowly while leading the cow.

At this time, many people followed Li Shimin's guard of honor, so Gao Ming's move was not abrupt.

After walking for nearly half an hour, Li Shimin's guard of honor finally stopped, and only then did Gao Ming approach the guard of honor with his ox.

But as soon as he approached, he was stopped by two guards.

"Stop here!"

Looking at the guards blocking him, Gao Ming knew that he would not be able to enter without revealing his identity, so he could only smile slightly at them.

"Actually, I am the prince, please let me in!"

"Prince?"

Hearing Gao Ming's words, the faces of the two guards suddenly changed.

But when they saw Gao Ming holding a piece of grass in his mouth and holding two cows in his hands, their expressions became strange again.
