Chapter 795 Your Majesty, let the prince become a county magistrate!
"clever?"
In an instant, Li Shimin, Fang Xuanling and others all looked shocked.
As for Li Chengqian, Li Baoding and others on the side, their faces were even more surprised.
Each of them is a prince, a county king, or even a county marquis. By virtue of their status and title, even if they go out to any city, the local governor and governor will treat them as their ancestors and do not dare to show any slightest neglect.
And now, they are actually asked to become county magistrates?
"Xuan Ba, let a prince named Gao Ming serve as a county magistrate?"
Li Shimin asked slowly.
"Um!"
Li Xuan nodded slightly.
"How does this work?"
Li Shimin shook his head repeatedly.
"Then become the governor!"
Li Xuan said again.
"Xuan Ba, there has never been such a precedent for a prince of the East Palace to go out to serve as a county magistrate, or even a governor. From ancient times to the present, there has never been such a precedent! Moreover, for Gao Ming, isn't it too much for the county magistrate and the governor to hold the same official position?
Did you wrong him too much?"
Li Shimin said with some dumbfounding, he really didn't understand what was going on in Li Xuan's head.
Fang Xuanling, Changsun Wuji and others also nodded in agreement.
"Then make Gao Ming the governor?"
Li Xuan tried again and said.
Hearing this, Li Shimin couldn't help but smile helplessly.
"Xuan Ba, Gao Ming is the crown prince. You should live in the East Palace or Liangyi Palace and learn from me how to handle government affairs!"
"Your Majesty, are you asking Gao Ming to keep talking on paper?"
Li Xuan chuckled.
"Um?"
Li Shimin's expression changed slightly, "What does Xuan Ba mean?"
"Your Majesty, the son of Zhao She, the famous general of the Zhao Kingdom, has been familiar with the art of war since he was a child. Even Zhao She can't debate it, but he has never led an army to fight alone.
As a result, the first time he led troops to fight, he was directly entrusted with the important task by the King of Zhao, leading Zhao's 400,000 troops to fight against the Qin army. However, in the first battle, he was killed by the Qin State in one fell swoop and ruined the Zhao State!"
Li Xuan smiled faintly and continued: "Your Majesty, Gao Ming was born in the palace and raised in the East Palace. Now, Gao Ming has never really governed even a small county town, but your Majesty only relies on the teachings of those great Confucians.
Let Gao Ming help His Majesty handle government affairs.
In this case, your majesty could ask Gao Ming whether he really knows how much of the things written in the memorials are true? How much of it is the exaggeration of the officials?
How many of those aristocratic families are deceiving the superiors and concealing the truth?
How much does Gao Ming know about the twists and turns in official circles?
Does Gao Ming know how people lived in various states and counties in the Tang Dynasty?"
"this……"
Li Shimin's face gradually became serious.
On the side, Fang Xuanling, Changsun Wuji and others also realized something, and their expressions changed slightly.
Li Xuan continued: "Your Majesty, if you let other princes go out to serve as county magistrates or governors, they may be wronged. After all, they have noble status and should be comfortable as princes and enjoy the benefits of all the people of the Tang Dynasty.
support.
However, Gao Ming was the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty, the heir and manager of the Tang Dynasty in the future. The responsibility he shouldered was for the more than 30 million people of the Tang Dynasty.
As long as he is still a prince, he cannot be compared with those princes and princes!"
"Your Majesty, Gao Ming has grown up and married the Crown Princess.
But since Gao Ming was a child, what did he do independently?
At most, you can imitate my Li family village, and then farm in his village, and lead the farmers to farm the land and raise chickens, ducks, fish and pigs.
But apart from these, what else has Gao Ming done?"
"Your Majesty, don't say that Gao Ming is the prince of the Tang Dynasty, and he should sit in the Taiji Palace and handle government affairs. However, Gao Ming doesn't even know the government affairs of officials in various states and counties in the world. How can your Majesty guarantee that Gao Ming can handle it?
What about the government affairs?"
Hearing this, Li Shimin nodded subconsciously.
"What does Xuanba mean?"
Li Xuan turned his head and glanced at Li Chengqian who was a little surprised, and continued: "When Your Majesty can still control the entire Tang Dynasty, Your Majesty will release Gao Ming and let Gao Ming personally rule a country, serve as a county magistrate, or be a governor of a state.
.
In this way, Gao Ming can fully display his inner strategy of governing the people, allowing him to toss hard.
If Gao Ming makes a mistake, Your Majesty can still clean up Gao Ming's mess from behind.
But if Gao Ming governs Xiazhou and county officials and governs Qingming, the people will be prosperous and strong.
Then, it is enough to prove that Gao Ming will definitely be a wise king in the future.
Your Majesty and the other heroes who have conquered the country with your Majesty can rest assured that the Tang Dynasty will be handed over to Gao Ming!"
After hearing this, not only Li Shimin, but also Fang Xuanling, Changsun Wuji, and even Cheng Zhijie and Yuchigong nodded subconsciously, obviously feeling a little moved.
"Xuanba's words are not unreasonable!"
"Just, what do you mean by Gao Ming?"
After saying that, Li Shimin looked at Li Chengqian.
"ah?"
Li Chengqian couldn't help but be shocked when he saw so many people looking at him. He still hasn't come back to his senses yet.
He had never thought that he only came to Lijiazhuang to hand over his studies. As a result, inexplicably, he was advised by his direct prince, uncle and wife to leave the East Palace and go to other counties to take charge of government.
"What do you think about my suggestion?"
Li Xuan asked with a slight smile.
"Think carefully, after you go out, you will at least be a county magistrate, and you can do whatever you want in the entire county. The most important thing is that you don't have to be controlled by His Majesty every day, studying those tedious articles, and reviewing various articles.
A boring memorial.
The only drawback is that after you go out, you may not have a residence as big as the East Palace, nor will there be so many palace maids to serve you!"
Hearing this, Li Chengqian's eyes lit up and his heart was greatly moved.
He had long been tired of being managed, especially Yu Zhining, Kong Yingda and others who followed him all day long. If he made any mistake, they would give him a stern admonishment.
Although they were admonitions, the tone of each one was more fierce than the last one. It seemed that he, the prince, had no dignity in front of these officials and had to act in accordance with their rules and wishes!
However, although Uncle Wang is right, everything is too straightforward and is not good!
Thinking about it, Li Chengqian couldn't help but smile bitterly and slightly arched his hand towards Li Shimin.
"My son, I am at your mercy!"
"Hmph, do you think I'm being too strict?"
Li Shimin's face turned cold and he glared at Li Chengqian.
"Father, I have misunderstood. My son is the Crown Prince of the Tang Dynasty. He cannot act as he pleases like your younger brothers in everything!"
Li Chengqian quickly raised his hands and saluted.
"So, you want to be willful for once?"
Li Shimin sneered.
"Father, I know it clearly, my son and I have absolutely no intention of doing this!"
Li Chengqian said quickly.
"Chicken-hearted!"
On the side, Li Xuan couldn't help but sneered, full of contempt for Li Chengqian's attitude.
Li Shimin, Li Chengqian and others couldn't help but look at Li Xuan in astonishment.
