1024. Exceptional
Qi Xiaobai is very optimistic about Li Ming, but Li Ming's family, Li family, is not as optimistic about Li Ming as Qi Xiaobai.
Li Ming returned to the Li family, and the Li family was full of reproaches for him, thinking that he was too stupid, wouldn't it be fragrant to be in front of Zhongqing? You have to think about what to do.
Even if he completed this task, he would not be able to reach the position of Shangqing, and the four Zhongqing of the Li family all blamed Li Ming.
Li Ming looked at the people in the family, he took a deep breath and said: "Everyone, my Li family is the patriarchal family of the Qi Kingdom, and its family is full of talented people, and they are all high-ranking and powerful people!" ”
"But everyone, in our generation, once the five Zhongqing, but none of our five Zhongqing have made great achievements, there is nothing now, but what about the future? If someone has made a meritorious contribution, I'm afraid that we, the Fifth Central Secretary, will be removed from the official title! Li Ming looked at the group of people and said.
The position of Zhongqing is a limited number of places, and there are as many official positions as Zhongqing, so there are as many Zhongqing official titles, and if a person is promoted to Zhongqing, then there must be a person who is deprived of the official title of Zhongqing.
Li Ming saw through this point that he stood up and set up a military order to complete the strategic goals set by Qi Xiaobai.
Everyone was silent after hearing Li Ming's words, Li Ming looked at everyone and said, "I also think for our Li family!" ”
"You don't want my Li family to lose power, do you?" Li Ming looked at everyone and said.
Everyone nodded silently, and then Li Ming continued: "You should know what Your Majesty's impression of our Li family is, right?" ”
"Although our Li family has been the fifth Zhongqing, outsiders look powerful and powerful, and the family is powerful!" But only we know that His Majesty doesn't like our Li family very much.
"He thinks our Li family is just a bunch of rotten people!"
"Now with our Li family, it is nothing more than that there is no suitable candidate, when there is a suitable candidate, and we have no merits, I am afraid that we will all be dismissed and demoted!" Li Ming looked at everyone and said again.
At this time, a Zhongqing of the Li family, Li Shaoyang, stood up, looked at Li Ming and said: "We are all Zhongqing, in important positions, to find someone who can replace us, I'm afraid it will be difficult to ascend to the sky!" ”
Li Shaoyang is also an extraordinary person in the Li family, and Li Shaoyang is also quite powerful in the court, although he is a corrupt Confucian, but he is a dragon and a phoenix, and he once followed Zhang Tianshang and later switched to Guan Zhongmen.
In addition to being in the position of the Minister of Supervision, it can be said that he is in an important position in the Qi State, of course, Li Shaoyang can be in the position of the Minister of Supervision, also because he really has some ability in this regard, and more importantly, he has eliminated many stubborn and hostile families for Qi Xiaobai.
Although Li Shaoyang is a corrupt Confucian, Li Shaoyang can be said to have done everything about betraying his friends and betraying his master, of course, this is also the reason why he can come to this day.
Li Ming also didn't like this family brother who betrayed his former allies to seek glory and ascend to power.
Li Shaoyang has some ability, but that's because Li Shaoyang was somewhat useful to Qi Xiaobai at the beginning, but now that the internal situation has been stabilized, Li Shaoyang's usefulness is getting lower and lower.
And Li Shaoyang didn't supervise any important personnel anymore, and now someone made a mistake and fell, not because he supervised the minister, but because he found it out by the secretary of the Qi State, which made him less and less useful, Li Ming saw all this, but this brother of his family didn't seem to know at all, and he felt that he could sit until he died, but he didn't know that the birds were all gone, the good bow was hidden, the cunning rabbit died, and the lackeys cooked.
You are useless to Qi Xiaobai now, and you have also enjoyed what you should enjoy, Qi Xiaobai will definitely not let you continue to hold this position.
Li Ming is one of the few smart people in the Li family, he knows that Qi Xiaobai is not a kind person, and Qi Xiaobai will definitely do it if he unloads the mill and kills the donkey.
Looking at Qi Xiaobai now, he pays attention to benevolence and righteousness, but Li Ming knows that the king always only talks about benevolence and righteousness on the surface, and stabs him in the back, and does a lot of things.
Li Ming looked at Li Shaoyang and said: "Those young secretaries from the Jixia School Palace, but they are all staring at us, if we have no achievements, and those young secretaries have made some contributions, wouldn't our position be theirs?" ”
"The army has a military merit system, don't we civilian officials also have an evaluation system? If we fail to pass the assessment, we will all be demoted, and the following people will be promoted if the assessment is successful, do you know that there are many Shaoqing this year, and the task is completed very well! Li Ming looked at Li Shaoyang and said.
"This year, I am the only one in the family who has met the task, because I am a horse breeder, as long as I take out a sufficient number of war horses, but what about you, brother?" Li Ming looked at Li Shaoyang and asked.
"I'm the Inspector General, and I don't have so many people to deal with!" Li Shaoyang spread his hands and said.
"Brother, is there really no one? Do you know that the spy organization in our Qi country has secretly investigated and dealt with many people, this was originally your business, but let them do it, do you think your position can still be kept? Li Ming looked at Li Shaoyang and asked.
Li Shaoyang was silent, he didn't know what to do, he did enjoy having fun since he became the Minister of Supervision, and he did not meet the standard in the previous assessment, but Guan Zhong guaranteed him, and with the people below, there were not many people who met the standard and could take his place, so he has always been in this position.
He had heard that many people in Shaoqing had good results in the assessment this year, but he didn't care, but today Li Ming told him that he had to stop worrying.
The assessment is assessed twice a year, Shaoqing's has been assessed once, and Zhongqing's is about to be assessed for the first time, but Li Shaoyang's assessment this year, the task in the first half of the year did not meet the standard.
The other three Zhongqing of the Li family were all stunned when they heard Li Ming's words, but they were relieved to think that this year's task had been completed well.
Li Ming looked at the three of them and said: "Everyone, don't be too happy for the three of you, although your grades are up to standard, but your grades have improved every year, if the people below have good grades, you still can't keep your status!" ”
"So you not only have to have excellent grades, but also make some contributions to keep your position!" Li Ming looked at these people and said.
"And what I want to do is to make a contribution and let Your Majesty know that our Li family is very useful!" Li Ming looked at everyone and said.
Li Shaoyang bit his mouth, and then looked at Li Ming: "What should I do?" ”
Li Ming looked at Li Shaoyang and said: "This time I will go to the Jin Kingdom, you can go with me, so that the credit of the two of us will be divided equally, even if your assessment results in the first half of the year are not very good, but the two of us have joined forces to complete the strategic plan given to us by His Majesty, and we will definitely give you an exceptional qualification!" ”
