Chapter 50 Smile like a fool
East Palace!
Since Li Zhi entered the Eastern Palace, the small court in this court has been operating rapidly.
In order to raise his son and to make up for the lost ten years, Li Shimin gave him great power.
The Crown Prince Order is now almost the same as the emperor's edict, and it is necessary to go through the process of prime ministers in the three provinces before it can be issued.
The removal of Lawyer Pei, a third-rank senior official of the local governor, was handed over to Li Zhi, and he had full authority to handle it.
There was a lot of controversy in the temple about Li Zhi's direct removal of Lawyer Pei.
Lawyer Pei is the governor of a state at least, and he has not committed a fatal mistake. He is too strict to be appointed to the office, and many people are pleading for it.
After all, Lawyer Pei's father, Pei Ji, was the third prince and was Li Yuan's most trusted brother. He had a high status in the temple. Even though he had been dead for many years, he still had a certain influence on his connections.
Li Zhi ignored those who pleaded with mercy at all. He ignored those refutations on the surface, but remembered them in his heart.
Li Zhi has a thick face and a dark heart, and never leaves room for work.
Lawyer Pei is quite skilled and has a very utilitarianism. He also has a certain connection in the temple, so he can easily have the opportunity to make a comeback.
Li Zhi and Li Shimin are two people after all.
Different people have different perspectives on things, so the results they get are naturally very different.
Li Shimin thinks it’s good, but Li Zhi may not be. Li Shimin thinks it’s safe, and Li Zhi is the same.
Li Zhi had never met Lawyer Pei, but he could see the clues from his official resume.
People like Lawyer Pei who are extremely utilitarian will inevitably take revenge on those who have the chance. Instead of letting the thief be concerned, it is better to kill the thief at once.
Li Zhi was very unscrupulous, but he was extremely gentle and tolerant towards his own people.
If the great Tang Dynasty was not short of this person.
"Crown Prince, the senior official sorted out the list sent by the Ministry of Personnel and selected several suitable candidates from them, and His Highness Qing decided."
The person who spoke in the hall was Gao Jifu, a native of Bohai County, and was a talented man with both civil and military skills.
When he was young, he gathered thousands of soldiers to participate in the peasant uprising, followed Li Mi to conquer the world, and was very skilled in martial arts. After surrendering to the Tang Dynasty, he was transferred to civil servants. He performed extremely well and was highly praised by Li Shimin.
Li Zhi succeeded to the crown prince. Because he had never been able to cultivate his confidants, Li Shimin transferred Yu Zhining, Ma Zhou, Zhang Xingcheng, Su Xu, Gao Jifu, Su Xu and Chu Suiliang, who he focused on cultivating, to the Eastern Palace for posts.
Li Zhi handled the national affairs of the Tang Dynasty with these people every day, preparing for the future takeover of the Tang Dynasty.
Bianzhou is a key place for the transportation of the grain. The governor of the prefecture was dismissed, so someone naturally needed to take over.
The imperial court is about to bring Luo River into Bian, and the status of Bianzhou's grain transportation will be further improved.
As long as you are not a fool who is a fool, you can still achieve excellent political achievements even if you are a corpse in Bianzhou.
Faced with this fatal affair, many people in the temple were moved and ran around.
According to the rules, the crown prince had no right to privately appoint officials of the third rank or above, but this time Li Shimin gave the appointment and removal power to Li Zhi.
Li Zhi took the list from Gao Jifu and opened it for a closer look. The first page was Wei Zheng's son Wei Shuyu...
In addition to his name, there are also his achievements, official reputation and some evaluations of his deeds on this list.
Li Zhi just glanced at his name, looked at his deeds without reading anything, and turned the page directly.
Wei Zheng is about to die, what's the use of appointing his son?
Just ten days ago, Li Shimin took him to Wei Zheng's mansion to visit this Wei Tang Dynasty who made great achievements and called him the important minister of Mingjing.
Wei Zheng was terminally ill and had no time to go.
Li Shimin looked at the humeral minister who had been scolding him for his whole life and promised Empress Changsun’s youngest daughter, Princess Hengshan, to Wei Zheng’s eldest son Wei Shuyu in front of the sickbed.
Therefore, Li Zhi knew in his heart that Wei Zheng was terminally ill and had no miracle.
The second page is Fang Xuanling's eldest son, Fang Yizhi...
Similarly, Li Zhi just looked at a name and turned it over.
The third page is Lai Ji, the son of Lai Hu'er, the general of the Zuoyi Guard of the Sui Dynasty. He has no outstanding identity other than that.
Li Zhi looked down enthusiastically, Lai Ji: In the 14th year of Daye, Yu Wenhua, the general of the Youtun Guard, launched a coup and killed Emperor Yang of Sui. Lai Hu'er refused to surrender to the rebels and was killed by Yu Wenhua. His eldest brother Lai Kai, fifth brother Lai Hong, and sixth brother Lai Heng were all harmed. Only Lai Ji and his brother Lai Heng escaped the disaster because they were too young.
When the family was in trouble, they came to help with the difficulties and difficulties. They were determined to study, had literary and lyrics, were good at talking, and were particularly familiar with the current affairs. During the reign of Emperor Gaozu of Tang, they were appointed as Jinshi.
In the eighth year of Zhenguan, he was promoted to the Censor of Supervision. He impeached the minister and was not afraid of the powerful and promoted to the county magistrate of Wannian County. He enforced the law properly and was deeply loved by local people.
Li Zhi nodded and turned down again: General Xin Mao, a native of Jingzhou, was a fisherman in Jingxiang, and was a filial and trustworthy person. His reputation was passed down to his hometown. Li Yuanjing, the governor of Jingzhou, listened to his name and recruited as a staff member. He was diligent and studious, and had a thousand miles of knowledge. He was the magistrate of Jingmen County, the chief of Jingmen County, and the magistrate of Jingmen County. During his tenure, he cared about the suffering of the people, paid attention to agricultural production, and was enthusiastic about careers. In view of the current situation of the silt of the Fuhe River, the harbor was overflowing, and the flooding of farmland, he personally led the people to clear the river and relieve the flood.
Putting the list on the case table, Li Zhi said: "Let's order Fang Yizhi to be the governor of Bianzhou, he is the most suitable. In addition, Xin Mao, the generals of this place are good, and there are still vacant things in this East Palace. They are transferred to Chang'an and serve in the East Palace."
By the moment he saw Fang Yizhi, Li Zhi had already decided on the candidate in his heart.
Whether Fang Yizhi can take on major responsibilities does not matter. What is important is that his father is Fang Xuanling.
"Prince..."
Chu Suiliang, a guest of the prince in the hall, suddenly said: "The prince is still vacant at the moment. This position is particularly important. It is inappropriate to have a long-term vacancy."
Li Zhi said in a deep voice: "Who is Mr. Chu?"
Chu Suiliang said: "It is most suitable for Changsun Dan to have extensive knowledge."
Li Zhi widened his eyes and asked, "But the sixth son of my uncle's family?"
Chu Suiliang nodded and said, "It's Liulang of the Sikong family."
Li Zhi grinned and said, "This prince Xima is responsible for teaching the orphans' affairs, literature and science. He hesitated for a while and didn't know who to choose. Brother Changsun Liu was willing to surrender, so that would be better. He would be him." He said twice in a row, and was as happy as a child.
After all the matters were handled, the princes and officials left separately.
Li Zhi was the only one left in the hall.
Li Zhi rubbed his cheeks that were a little stiff and laughed, and muttered, "It turns out that he smiles like a fool! Only he is as thick-skinned as a city wall can laugh so naturally. No, he can't learn from him, it's too stupid... But the effect seems to be good, no wonder he often smiles like a fool in front of his father."
He muttered, at a young age, his dark and deep eyes were filled with cold chills.
