"These are nothing to be afraid of. As the saying goes, the name is right and sound. With the emperor's will, we can issue orders to the states. If we don't listen, we will seek other laws." Li Min pondered, "Today I call you I came here to let you all be prepared, don't be in a hurry, these officials from the frontier state and the Zhechong Mansion must be replaced by the Shu Palace as soon as possible."
Shangguanyi said: "Your Highness, this is really difficult. There is still a shortage of officials in Yizhou, let alone other counties, and if His Highness is so eager to replace officials from other counties, it will definitely cause criticism from the government and the public. That would be inappropriate."
Shangguanyi's words reminded Li Yin, Li Yin shook his head, he was still too impatient, he said: "You are right, but I am a little impatient." Then he changed his mouth and said: "The matter of selecting talents should also be mentioned The schedule is up, I just took over Yizhou and everything is waiting to be done, now you should also be free."
"Your Highness, the selection of talents is not something we can do for you. Your Highness still needs to experience it personally. Learn from the Fourth Prince and the Third Prince, and recruit people from all walks of life. Presumably those scholars who are depressed will come over the threshold." Wang Yinlong added.
The three civil servants talked to each other, which reminded Li Yin of the model of the Whampoa Military Academy in the Republic of China. Why not learn from it and open a military training school, and then run a government affairs training school, and recruit those with excellent grades.
Thinking of this, Li Yin glanced at Qin Huaiyu who was pinching his nose. Although this kid is Qin Shubao's son, he never followed Qin Shubao's side since he was a child, so he received less education, so he is only a fierce general at present. He is not a qualified military general and seriously lacks military literacy, so it is absolutely necessary to strengthen training.
"Since you all say so, then I will personally supervise this matter!" Li Yin said...
Li Shimin is leaving tomorrow, Li Min prepared a grand banquet that night, asked Zhang San to prepare all kinds of delicacies, and let Li Shimin go back with a full meal.
At the banquet, officials from the Southern Tour and Yizhou gathered together, and Li Shimin was in a particularly happy mood. I am afraid that the only unhappy person was Lu Jin who was beaten up.
Li Shimin drank apricot flower wine and held grilled mutton with carefully grilled ingredients. This kebab is made of pure mutton, not water-filled meat or rat meat. It is sprinkled with cumin when grilling and bought with Li Min. The chili powder, brushed with vegetable oil, salt water and soy sauce vinegar, not only has an attractive color after roasting, but the meaty aroma even wafts all over the palace, making the maids and guards swallow their saliva constantly.
Yizhou officials had already experienced the deliciousness of mutton skewers during the Chinese New Year, and it was not surprising to see them now. Those officials on the southern tour were the first to eat this. , I was afraid that I ate a bunch less than others, which made the officials in Yizhou suddenly feel a sense of pride. This kind of food is exclusive to the Shu Palace.
Li Shimin took a sip of wine and a sip of mutton, and said to Li Min who was sitting at the bottom: "Min'er, the banquet you prepared makes me not even want to go back to Chang'an."
"I hope that my father can stay in Yizhou for a longer time, so that my son can be more filial at my father's knee." Li Yin replied with a glass of wine.
Li Shimin was very pleased. After Li Shimin ascended the throne, he valued filial piety and benevolence first. Li Min was right on the pulse of Li Shimin. When Li Shimin imprisoned Li Yuan in Hongyi Palace and was accused of being unfilial, he paid more attention to filial piety and benevolence, especially for his sons. With such teaching, I am afraid that he is also worried that one day he will follow Li Yuan's old path.
Li Tai and Li Yin have been at odds with each other on weekdays, but after eating a few dishes, they also had to compliment each other. He looked at Li Yin with more and more different eyes. He still does not understand why this sixth brother, who has always been hated by his father, would There was such a huge change all of a sudden, from a person he had never looked down on to a person he couldn't fathom.
Li Yin and Li Shimin chatted and laughed happily, and all the officials were happy. The eldest grandson Wuji looked at the father and son with a trace of worry hidden in his eyes. Now Li Yin has become a veritable king of Shu. , it is indeed a place that no one wants to come to, but no matter what you say, Li Yin has become the actual ruler of Shu, and is no longer a small governor of Yizhou. Although he is not a vassal king, he is basically no different from a vassal king .
"Auxiliary machine, what are you thinking?" When Changsun Wuji was in a daze, Li Shimin's voice came. It turned out that at this time the palace remembered "The Music of the King of Qin Breaking the Array". dance.
This "The Music of the King of Qin Breaking the Array" was prepared by Li Yin. When the music played, Li Shimin stood up and walked down to dance with the dancers. Many officials also joined in. Li Yin couldn't dance and could only pretend to be in the middle. Follow the example.
Putting his mind away, Changsun Wuji stood up and joined in, "The old minister was just distracted just now!", and then jumped up.
The banquet finally ended with the music of "The Music of the King of Qin Breaking the Array". All the officials left first, leaving only the servants and maidservants who cleaned up. Li Yin said: "Father, the sons and servants will take their leave first, and come back tomorrow to see the father off."
Li Shimin also felt a little sleepy and said: "Well, you go back!"
Leaving Li Shimin's palace, Li Yin returned to the palace, the lights in the room were still on, Li Yin went in, and saw that Cui Yingying was still asleep, sitting at the table embroidering something.
"Why aren't you asleep?" Li Yin walked over and saw clearly that what Cui Yingying was embroidering was a lotus.
"There's nothing to worry about. I'm afraid I won't succeed in a dancer." Li Yin joked.
Cui Yingying gave Li Yin a white look, "If Your Highness falls in love with a dancer, Yingying will be too happy." She undressed Li Yin and said, "Your Highness smells of alcohol, you should wash up before going to bed."
Li Yin stopped teasing her, turned around and went into the bathroom to take a shower, Cui Yingying was still sitting at the table when she came out, Li Yin thought that this little girl had something to say, so he said, "Do you have something to do?"
Cui Yingying nodded, "Just now when Your Highness went to the imperial father's palace, my cousin Cui Zhang brought seven Cui family children to Yizhou. They wanted to see His Highness tonight, but it was too late. Let them go back first."
Li Yin finally understood why Cui Yingying couldn't sleep in the middle of the night. It turned out that her natal family had come. Also, Cui Yingying had been alone in Yizhou for half a year, so she would be very happy to see her relatives.
"Well, let's meet them tomorrow after the father leaves Yizhou." Li Yin said casually, these children of the Cui family had to be given suitable positions when they arrived in Yizhou. After all, Cui Shao helped him a lot in the court.
The next day, Li Shimin got up and drove back to Chang'an. Li Min took Yizhou officials to see him off at the south gate. Li Shimin said to Li Min before he got on his horse: "My son, the royal father will definitely be opposed by the officials for handing over Shu to you, but you don't have to worry about it." , father will definitely not break his promise, but you must not disappoint father's expectations of you, you must make this Shu land the most fertile land in my Tang Dynasty, and those skills from Luo Anguo, you must study hard , Father has never conceded defeat in his life, but he is only afraid of this Luo Anguo, I am not convinced, and I hope that you can lead Datang to be equal to them one day, and not be ridiculed as a barbarian."
It turned out that Li Shimin did not hesitate to break the enfeoffment system and help him become the real king of Shu for this. Li Yin couldn't help feeling that Li Shimin had a long-term vision. Perhaps these days he has personally felt the horror of technological power. What he is in awe of is not Luo Anguo, but It must be skills beyond his comprehension.
"Yes, father!" Li Yin bowed deeply, paying tribute to this enlightened emperor through the ages. Not everyone has this kind of awareness, otherwise China would not have experienced the humiliation of the century. Willing to change.
Li Shimin nodded and smiled, turned around and got on his horse. Li Yin shouted: "I send my father off respectfully!"
"The ministers and others respectfully send the emperor back to Beijing!" Yizhou officials followed suit and bowed in salute.
"Let's drive!" The **** beside Li Shimin shouted, and the southern tour team slowly left Yizhou City. The team members Sun Wuji, Lu Jin, and Li Tai were silent and each had their own thoughts. Hearing this, Li Shimin insisted on this, and he was afraid that there would be another disturbance in the court.
Looking at the southern tour team gradually going away, the officials in Yizhou finally breathed a sigh of relief. They are also very busy these days, and they are worried, for fear that an accidental mistake will be made.
Shangguanyi sighed and said: "The emperor came and went, and the Yizhou treasury spent 130,000 guan, which is half of the Yizhou treasury."
"Spent so much money?" Yizhou was waiting for prosperity, and the treasury was not rich. The only remaining deposits were obtained when the high powers were seized. in the treasury.
Wang Yinlong said: "So Emperor Sui Yang's several southern tours eventually dragged down the country, leaving a guest to die in a foreign land..." Before he finished speaking, Dou Xiande kicked him, Wang Yinlong looked at Dou Xiande angrily, and saw He kept winking at him, and he suddenly realized, isn't this Sui Yang Emperor Li Yin's grandfather? Immediately shrugged his head and stopped talking.
"Wang Changshi is right. The death of Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty and the exhaustion of people's power will eventually lead to rebellion in the world. It is because of this that the emperor mentioned the strategy of rest and recuperation. We should take it as a warning." At this time, Li Yin did not think that he was a Sui Yangdi's grandson said to himself.
"Your Highness is wise!" All the officials said in unison. Seeing that Li Yin was not angry, Wang Yinlong let out a soft breath.
After Li Shimin left, everything returned to normal in Yizhou. Li Yin asked the officials to go back to deal with government affairs, but he alone asked Shangguanyi to follow him back to the palace. The eight Cui clan members were still waiting for him to deal with.
When the two arrived at the palace, Jin Daqian was limping out. Twenty boards were not many, but it was enough. His buttocks were still hurting. When he saw Li Yin, Jin Daqian said, "Your Highness, this old servant is looking for you." Well, the people from the Cui family have arrived, and the concubine is greeting her in the main hall."
Li Yin nodded and walked straight to the main hall. Shangguanyi behind him looked at Jin Daqian suspiciously and asked, "Butler Jin, what's wrong with you?"
Jin Daqian said: "So-and-so made a mistake and received twenty boards, and so-and-so deserves it."
Shangguanyi broke out in a cold sweat, thinking that he should be more careful in handling things in the future.
