Chapter 29 I'm promoted
Pei Min returned home and had dinner with Xue Neyi.
Xue Na told him good news, "If I hadn't made a mistake, your mother should have rested in Luoyang now, and she will arrive in Chang'an in six or seven days."
"That's great!" Pei Min hasn't seen his mother for half a year, and he missed her very much. It was just because Pei's mother was old and could not stand the bumps of thousands of miles. She came on the road in a carriage and drove very slowly, waiting for it day and night, and finally got accurate news, and hurriedly said: "Don't hurry, don't hurry, take your time, take your time. My mother hasn't walked that long way, and her body is important. In a few days, I'll take a leave and go to the road to greet her in person."
Xue Na also knew that Pei Min was filial: "You have just taken over the Censorate Taiyuan, and you have made a lot of noise. You are so busy!"
"It'll be fine after tomorrow!" Pei Min ate the delicious meal with relish and responded casually: "Actually, the matter of the Censorate is not that busy. After all, Your Majesty has abolished a large number of officials. There is a new atmosphere in the court, and there are not so many officials who have committed crimes. I am not really here for Junchen. In order to prove myself, I will find some things to do. But in order to better implement the responsibilities of the Censorate, I proposed a system of reporting. Taigong must have heard of it, which is different from the system of the Martial Arts Empress back then, but it is somewhat similar. Due to the original tyranny of the Censorate, many people contacted the Censorate and raised a lot of doubts. If I don't make any achievements to block their mouths and let them gossip behind their backs, how can I stay in this Censorate in the future? Then I stared at it day and night and wanted to burn the fire and make the whole thing. Tomorrow, I will burn the fire, see who dares to gossip."
Xue Ne also knew that Pei Min had any ideas, but she didn't ask about his work, nor did she ask too much.
The morning dynasty in the Tang Dynasty was divided into three types, and the daily court was the regular ceremonies; the day of the new year was the fifteenth day of each month. The court held a large ceremonies called the new year was the first fifteenth day of each month, and the court held a large ceremonies on the New Year and the Winter Solstice.
The regular participants are usually a small dynasty meeting where only the prime minister and the officials of the prescribed rank or above participate. The new dynasty meeting should be much more cautious, and officials within the prescribed rank must participate.
Pei Min's attendant censor is not big or small, and he often does not go on the wheel, but he must participate in the morning and morning censorship.
It was early this day, Pei Min changed into his official uniform and walked towards the Tai Chi Palace.
The morning dynasty of this era is still very humane. It is said that the morning dynasty ministers of the dynasty had to get up at midnight, traveled through half a capital to the Meridian Gate, and waited from three in the morning until five in order to enter the palace. The Tang Dynasty only needed to arrive at the Tai Chi Hall before Chen Hou, and there were no many rules.
Pei Min has a strong sense of time and does not like those who are late and do not abide by time. He arrived in front of Tai Chi Hall in the first hour before Chen Hou.
Before he could stand still, an old acquaintance came up and said, "Brother Jingyuan, don't be fine!"
"I've seen King Xue!" Pei Min said with a smile. The person who came was Li Longji's youngest brother, Li Longye. Li Longye seemed to have gained weight for only a few days, and his face was a bit unhealthy pale.
Li Longye hooked up on his shoulder intimately and said with a smile: "I'll go to Pingkangfang afterwards. You refused twice, and I'm not happy to refuse again."
Shortly after the coup, Li Longye asked him to invite him to Pingkangfang for fun. At that time, Pei Min had just taken over the Censorate and acted as the chief of the Taiyuan. He was not promoted step by step, but was promoted to the sky, so the Censorate organization did not understand anything. As the Chief of the Taiwan Dean, he did not know anything, how to govern? He did not have time during that period. Later, he started working in the Taiyuan and developed a reporting system, which was questioned, and even coincided with Wu Zetian's system to eliminate dissidents. At this time, he received the second invitation, and there was no time to agree. In addition, today, it was already three times. Two or three, and it was indeed inappropriate to refuse again for the third time.
Pei Min nodded: "It's not me who swept away King Xue's success. I'm really busy with the first two times. After today, I have time to arrange it in the next few days."
"Tomorrow!" Li Longye frowned and suddenly sighed and said, "Forget it, I must be in no mood to play recently. Let's make an appointment next time!"
Pei Min said in surprise: "What's wrong?"
Li Longye said with a bitter face: "I've captured the strong man. The emperor's brother grabbed me to practice polo. He said that how could my great country lose to the Tubo barbarians in polo? He forced him to go out for fun."
Pei Min said in surprise: "Tubo polo is very powerful? I haven't played yet, so I have no confidence? I won't be afraid of Tubo disease, right?"
Li Longye said disdainfully: "What is fear of Tubo? It's because Tubo is afraid of me, the big-size barbarians have never beaten us. Just two years ago, the emperor's brother scored eight goals in a row in half a quarter of an hour, and the Tubo team became a fool." He was talking about the incident in Jinglong for three years. At that time, Princess Jincheng of the Tang Dynasty married Tubo Zanpu, and Tubo sent a bride-welcoming team to welcome Princess Jincheng into Tibet. The bride-welcoming army also rose up. The Tubo envoy Shang Zandu looked down on the bride-welcoming team of the Tang Dynasty and beat the bride-welcoming team of the Tang Dynasty. At that time, Li Longji, the king of Linzi, could not bear it anymore, and he played against the bride-welcoming team of the ten-man team of Tubo in person. He almost swept the face and was stunned by the Tubo team of the Tubo.
"What's the matter?" Pei Min didn't know much about the situation, but there was a vague record in his memory that Li Longji was the most polo star in the Tang Dynasty, and his polo skills were still very strong.
Li Longye rolled his eyes and said, "My emperor is now the emperor, how could he play polo in the end? Li Yong and Yang Shenjiao were demoted and Wu Yanxiu was killed. No one who played polo the most powerfully could play polo. The emperor has already received news that the Tubo envoy was on the road and would soon come to the Hajj to meet. With their habits, they will definitely come to avenge their previous shame. Now, the emperor forced me to prepare in advance." He wanted to say something else, but the bell of Chen Shi rang.
Li Longye stopped talking, and the two of them stood up and walked into the hall with the crowd.
Hundreds of mats have been placed on the left and right of the hall, and each individual has a specific seat.
Pei Min found his seat and sat down. Before he could wait, he saw Li Longji calmly walking from the back hall to the center of the hall.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this Li Jiasanlang is in a bad mood.
After making a simple visit, Li Longji glanced down and said, "My dear friends, you have something to say!"
According to convention, the ministers will first report the matter. If no one reports the matter, the emperor will ask about the matter.
After Li Longji finished speaking, Cui Yuanming, the Minister of the Honglu Temple, walked out with a head-on: "I have something to report!"
Li Longji cheered up and said, "My dear, please speak."
Cui Yuanming said with a straight face: "I want to impeach the Censor Pei Min, who is bathed in the emperor's grace. Pei Min is young and holds a high position and takes charge of the Taiyuan. He has done his best to serve the emperor, but he relies on grace and acts recklessly and is lawless. The emperor is disrespectful to heaven and the lower is disrespectful to the elderly. He actually wants to carry out the sacrificial spirit of the emperor, and intends to arouse the accusation of the military officials again. His heart is abominable. I hope Your Majesty will be careful."
Li Longji smiled angry, looked at Pei Min's eyes and said, "Do you have any objections to Pei Qing criticizing this?"
Pei Min was also a little confused and hurriedly stepped out and said, "It's just nonsense, it's inexplicable. Cui Siqing actually said this nonsense and was so righteous. I admire him so much."
Cui Yuanming glared and said, "Isn't it that you want to expose the rumor of the Empress of Martial Arts?"
Pei Min said sternly: "The world is full of big news! Reporting events has been happening since ancient times. During the Yao and Shun period, the two emperors Yao and Shun listened to the voices of the people, so they had slandered wood, promoted good flags, and dared to advise the drums. There were also sounds of blocking bamboo in the Warring States Period. Zhao Guanghan, a famous scholar in the Western Han Dynasty, used a barrel to get secret reports from the people to eliminate the bullies of Yingchuan; there were also a demonstrative wood in the Jin Dynasty, and there were slandering wood letters in the Southern and Northern Dynasties. This was similar to all dynasties. Why? Emperor Taizong, my emperor, had good advice from the king, and the boat; the people were water. Water could carry boats, but also overturned the boats. My Tang Dynasty was the root, and the people were the foundation. What was wrong with listening to the people's words with the report box? Only when the bronze trunk of the Wu Emperor Wu was used improperly, would the news become a bad habit. Your Majesty was wise, and you should be as clear as Yao and Shun. Do you think Your Majesty was like the Wu Emperor?"
Cui Yuanming's face was blue and pale, and he said unwillingly: "Your Majesty is naturally not the Empress of Wu. When you, Pei Min, is the second second in Lai Junchen, who relies on your power to enter the Honglu Temple to show off his power, but in order to find an old grudge, he randomly circulated the monks to enter the warehouse account. Isn't the arrogance as good as Lai Junchen?"
Pei Min also smiled angrily and said, "As the Minister of the Honglu Temple, you are stupid and have a simple position. Chongxuan's office is controlled by your Honglu Temple. There are a lot of monks, and the wealthy and powerful people take the opportunity to be a monk to escape labor service. The situation is extremely bad. But you are old and confused and don't know. You are so confused that you still have the face to say that I am the second Lai Junchen?"
Cui Yuanming was stunned and had no idea what Pei Min said.
"Okay!" Li Longji looked at Cui Yuanming's age. Although he was so stupid that he was not expecting Pei Min to bully him in this court, he said, "Cui Qing is old and it is inevitable that he can't tell the situation. I have allowed Cui Qing to retire and return home, and the Minister of the Honglu Temple will be succeeded by the Shaoqing of the Honglu Temple."
Cui Yuanming was stunned and retreated with almost red eyes.
Li Longji slapped the table and said angrily: "I received a report from Pei Qing yesterday and realized that my Tang Dynasty had such bold and arbitrary people who did such hateful and hateful things. Tax and corvee labor are the foundation of the country. Ren Lin and Ruan Song actually helped others evade tax and corvee labor for their own selfish interests. It is really hateful! I was so angry last night that I couldn't sleep at night. I will never tolerate such borers and scum that harmed my Tang Dynasty. There are only ones to be eliminated! Ren Lin and Ruan Song cut off their arm and showed the public on the banks of the Weishui River. After three days, he asked to be executed to warn others."
Seeing that Li Longji was strictly enforcing the law, all the ministers felt awesome.
Chapter completed!
