Pei Ji panicked. His only source of support was Li Yuan. He didn't even know where Li Yuan was at this time. The whereabouts of Princess Mingyue Wu Zhao were kept secret. This was the decree issued by Emperor Li Er of the Tang Dynasty. Some dignitaries of the Tang Dynasty were there.
Among the regulations on keeping one's whereabouts secret, not counting Emperor Li Er of the Tang Dynasty, the one ranked first was the King of Qin, Li Yuanxing.
Ranked third is Wu Zhao.
The second person is Qin Qiong, the director of the Security Department of the Tang Empire.
Li Yuan seemed to have done it on purpose, as an excuse to take a good look at the ship, and when the ship was being painted, he had to watch it himself. Especially his bedroom and study room, which required the craftsmen to draw the drawings and he had to see them in person.
The second emperor of the Tang Dynasty was drinking and chatting with Qin Qiong in the garden.
"Your Majesty, the Dou family, the Du family, the Liu family, the Xiao family, the Changsun family, the Zhao family, the Hu family, the Lu family, the Yang family, the Zhu family, the Yuan family, and the seven families in Shandong, it is rare that they have joined forces for the first time. The Pei family is not
Even if you fall, you will be skinned. The only reason for their mercy is that the Scarlet Blood Guards are still led by the Pei brothers, and they have to take into account the face of the Supreme Emperor and the King of Qin!"
Qin Qiong said softly while Bang Li Er poured wine.
Li Er played with the precious cat's eye stone bracelet in his hand and smiled after counting them one by one: "Except for the royal family, everyone in the Tang Dynasty seems to have moved."
"Pei Ji is unpopular!" Qin Qiong responded.
Li Er shook his head slightly: "Wrong, this is a differentiation plan. Although the aristocratic family is headed by the Seventh Family, the Shandong gentry, Guanlong gentry, Jiangnan, Southeast, Guanzhong, and Daibei are competing for fame and fame.
It's a profit. These aristocratic families are no longer monolithic. The Jinzhou mining area has not yet been divided. Wulang only occupied a piece for himself. But you don't know Shubao. Wulang didn't mention the mining area. Instead, he took Haizhen out and told the world.
Man, the sea fields in Jinzhou are worth tens of millions!"
hiss……
Qin Qiong took a breath and reacted after hearing Li Er's explanation.
"For a gold mine, one million gold is the limit. Moreover, the mining gold and mineral taxes need to be paid to the court. I asked Mingyue, and the piece of land that was given to Jin Manqing's family as an escrow can be considered a first-class land. They
He only takes care of it and collects 50,000 guan a year. Wulang will take in at least 400,000 guan, freight, labor costs, and taxes. That piece of land thirty miles away is worth a million guan. Don’t forget, besides Haizhen,
And Haibao!"
The sea treasures Li Er mentioned are pearls and corals!
Qin Qiong was a little surprised: "Your Majesty, you haven't seen even half of the stamp from Jinzhou Development?"
"Because Goro hasn't spoken yet!"
Qin Qiong nodded silently.
"Feng Lao came to power. I know Lao Feng's body. He won't survive this year!"
"I'm afraid even Wulang knows."
Li Er believed that Li Yuanxing calculated all the aristocratic families in the Tang Dynasty very cleverly. But in fact, Li Yuanxing knew nothing. He just developed Jinzhou in an orderly manner based on the principle of letting some people get rich first.
As for that Haizhen, Li Yuanxing really ate it for himself.
When it came to putting Feng Deyi in the position, it was Wang Yuyan's idea.
The various dignitaries and aristocratic families in Chang'an City have begun a new round of political competition. This is not a civil and military battle, but a battle between the three provinces. In the fight for the highest position, the Seventh Aristocratic Family was the calmest, because they knew very well that these three provinces
They couldn't win the chief officer, and it was impossible to give it to them.
If the palace is uneasy, the world's noble families will not feel at ease either.
Then, the purpose of the Seventh Family is to support a neutral faction, or someone without a strong family background, to come to power.
But just when the secret war was about to begin, three people submitted their resignations. The first was Pei Ju, the servant in the middle school, and the other was Wen Yanbo, the scholar in the middle school. The last one was a real official.
Shuling, Yuwen Shiji!
Pei Ju's original name was Pei Shiju, but he changed his name only because Li Er became emperor.
This is the largest official in the Pei family. Among the three provinces, he is the chief official of the province and the minister. He is well-informed and low-key. At this time, he chose to resign, but it was a very clever move. He did not guarantee
Pei Ji only protects the Pei family. He is equivalent to taking a big step back on behalf of the Pei family. He is giving an explanation to the noble families and nobles, and also giving an attitude to the royal family.
After Li Er heard the news, he felt a little uncomfortable. The first thing he felt was that he had gone too far.
But think about it again, there will always be some changes.
"Shu Bao, send a telegram to Wu Lang. He said that I would like to make a bet with him on who will be the chief official of the three provinces."
Shangshu Ling has been vacant since the eighth year of Wude. In fact, the left and right servants performed the duties of Shangshu Ling.
Changsun Wuji may want to resign now, and the other Pei Ji will definitely not be able to become an official.
It’s really interesting. Almost all the highest official positions in the Tang Dynasty were vacant. After Xiao Yu was demoted, his original position was vacant. Du Ruhui was abducted to the Prince of Qin’s Mansion, and his position was also vacant. Now three people resigned in one go
, in addition to those who are about to be demoted, there is also Changsun Wuji who has long wanted to resign.
Instead of being nervous, Li Er smiled proudly.
In the first year of Zhenguan, he wanted to reshuffle the officialdom of the Tang Dynasty, but he never had the chance. Now the top official positions are vacant, which is extremely interesting.
When Qin Qiong heard Li Er's order, he asked carefully: "What does your Majesty mean in this battle between the three provinces? Your Majesty and the King of Qin sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight?"
"It's a good saying to sit on a mountain and watch tigers fight. Shu Bao's literary talent has improved, that's what it means. The family knows better about balance. This time I want to see how well they achieve balance. Don't move unless you have to. Don't move either, Wulang.
He initiated the incident, so he can no longer influence it excessively, lest he be charged with manipulating the imperial court by the censor and historian."
Qin Qiong bowed and retreated.
Li Yuanxing, who was fishing at the beach, was very surprised when he heard a telegram from Li Er.
There are only 101 words in the telegram. Li Yuanxing has been in the Tang Dynasty for two years. I really don’t know if the Tang Dynasty originally wrote letters to save paper. Now it is definitely to save the number of words in the telegram. Li Yuanxing believes this
One hundred and one words, I'm afraid if it were me, it would be at least a thousand words.
Wang Yuyan, Qiuxiang and others were called.
"Your Highness, there is a lot in the telegram. Three senior officials submitted their resignations, and the Holy Emperor wanted to make a bet with Your Highness on the newly elected chief officials of the three provinces and the names of the six deputy ministers of the three provinces. He also mentioned...
"Wang Yuyan was startled when he said this. After a pause, Wang Yuyan said: "Almost all the noble families in the Tang Dynasty participated. Each family is working hard secretly. Within Tianying Pavilion, there must be
There will be a game!"
Six times and nine officials from the three provinces refused to enter the Tianying Pavilion because they were already in high positions of power.
The limit of Tianying Pavilion is the official position of the third rank. The limit of Jianyuan is the rank of official of the fifth rank.
Li Yuanxing nodded silently, it seemed that this matter was really serious.
"It is understandable that Wen Yanbo resigned, because he first took refuge in Luo Yi, and later he was promoted to an important position. Yuyan thought that when Luo Yi rebelled, he had the intention to resign. But Yu Wenshiji was a former Sui Yu culture Pei Ju's younger brother, who had held an important position as early as the Sui Dynasty. He understood the principle of one emperor and one courtier, so he wanted to retire as soon as the emperor ascended the throne. Pei Ju chose to resign in order to protect his position as Pei Ju. !”
Li Yuanxing clapped his hands gently: "Okay, wonderful!"
"Yuyan has a simple understanding, Your Highness must have a profound understanding!"
Bet, only a ghost will believe you. Li Er wants to take a gamble, which means that we two brothers will not be involved.
Li Yuanxing can guess at least two of the new chief officials of the three provinces, and Wen Yanbo will definitely take the top position. Because he doesn't stick to either left or right, has no big background, and has no family power. He just can't guess whether he is the minister or the minister. As for the post of Zhongshu Ling, it is definitely Fang Xuanling, there is no other candidate.
Not right either!
Li Yuanxing suddenly thought that there was another possibility.
It was this group of guys who carried Li Jing out of the Ministry of War and sent him to the position of one of the chief officers of the three provinces. Li Jing of the Heavenly Yingge could not participate. Although the military commander added another person, no one had the influence of Li Jing. big.
Li Yuanxing was also thinking about bringing Li Ji up.
Either send Du Ruhui back from Prince Qin's Mansion.
Li Yuanxing slapped his thigh fiercely. Since it was a mess, let's make it a good mess, and then reorganize the officialdom of the Tang Dynasty.
"Write a seal on my behalf. What I mean is that there are many affairs in the court, and it is difficult to complete them with the Six Ministries alone. The Nine Temples and Five Supervisors are separated, and the functions of the Six Ministries, Nine Temples, Five Supervisors, and Baisi are detailed, please ask Tianying Pavilion To discuss, nine additional ministries including commerce, education, transportation, railways, aviation, diplomacy, foreign trade, medical, and nationalities will be added. Please invite Tianyingge to discuss the ministries and departments."
As Li Yuanxing spoke, Qiuxiang recorded quickly, and Wang Yuyan could only admire her silently.
No matter how deeply she thought about it, no matter how carefully she thought about it, she still couldn't compare to King Qin's case.
"One more chapter, I will protect Pei Ju as the governor of Liangzhou and be in charge of the military affairs of the seven states west of Liangzhou. I will transfer Li Xiaogong, Li Ji, Liu Hongji, and Zhang Gongjin back to Chang'an. I will promote Duan Zhihong to be the governor of Fengzhou, in charge of Feng, Sheng, Shuo, Xia, Ling Wuzhou military affairs. The adjutant, eldest brother, and captain are in charge of Tianying Pavilion to discuss the matter!"
Li Yuanxing did not participate in the affairs of the three provinces.
But that doesn't mean that he won't take this opportunity to completely reshuffle the officialdom of the Tang Dynasty.
Wang Yuyan wrote the seal personally, writing three copies in one go.
She divided Duan Zhihong and those who recommended Pei Ju into two parts.
After giving it to Li Yuanxing for review, he immediately sent a telegram to Chang'an City. In fact, it was handed over directly to Li Er.
The current telegraph in the Tang Dynasty has not yet been used by civilians. It is controlled by the Security Department of the Datang Empire. It is purely for military, political or official use.
Li Yuanxing has considered civilian use, but the first reason is that there are not enough radio stations, and the second reason is that this thing is still in the confidentiality stage. The more important reason is that radio stations cannot be mass-produced now, and the cost for civilian use is too high.
The last reason is that Datang currently does not have military codes that can be used, or that are guaranteed not to be eavesdropped or cracked.
Li Er, who was having dinner, received the seal and laughed. He said to Queen Changsun:
"Wu Lang, Zhuge of the Tang Dynasty!" (To be continued. Please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!)
