Chapter 852: Don't You Want Zaifu?
Li Er's meaning, and the meaning of his father-in-law Li Jiancheng, Bai Fan can understand it at a glance, even if he hasn't really mixed with officialdom, but he has been in Datang for ten years, and he has been with these people all day long, and he has never seen anything.
"Prime Minister? Your Majesty is really loving, such a heavy responsibility should not be shirked, but now that there is a more important task in his body, this prime minister can only ask His Majesty to find another good talent. ”
Bai Fan would refuse, these were all expected by Li Er, but he didn't expect Bai Fan to answer like this, what task is more important than the prime minister's position? You must know that the prime minister is the first assistant of a country, the first product of the dynasty, the leader of the government, the real one person is above ten thousand people, and today's Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Wei Zheng and others only occupy high positions, and no one deserves the title of real chief assistant.
The ministers also speculated on the side, could it be that the Marquis of Lantian was dissatisfied with the prime minister? Do you still want a real-name prince? This prince was supposed to give it before, but he openly refused, and now that the situation is asking for it, he will fall behind.
"I know that Jian Zhi has great ambitions, and the position of prime minister is a little small, so how about allowing you to be a prince and lead the country in the same way, and assist me in making contributions?" Li Er is also bold, with Feng Ang being crowned king before, it seems that it is not so impossible to seal out the prince with a different surname.
"No, no, no, Your Majesty has misunderstood, how can anyone covet a high position?
After listening to me, in my opinion, Datang is not short of auxiliary pillars now, there is not much more Bai Fan, and there is no less Bai Fan.
Anyone who was born as a scholar and is now the dean of Zhongnan Academy, cultivating talents for the world, can teach and educate people with peace of mind by chance, and be a useless prime minister, it is better to try his best to cultivate countless prime ministers for Datang in the future, this is the task and dream of the next. ”
Hey, many people in the audience took a breath for Bai Fan's words, what a big spirit, Zai Fuzhi's talent can be described as a rare encounter in a hundred years, you Bai Fan dare to open his mouth and cultivate in batches?
The generals applauded Bai Fan's words, which were atmospheric.
The civil officials are unbelievable, and they are more admired, recalling that just now everyone misunderstood that Bai Fan wanted an official position, but I didn't expect people to speak amazingly, comparing the two, making a judgment, it is really ashamed.
"Okay, Jian Zhi, I didn't misunderstand you, I was not moved by the small profits in front of me, and looked directly at the century-old future of Datang, this is your Bai Fan's spirit.
Compared with you, my prime minister's position seems to be petty. Li Er praised loudly.
At a banquet, Bai Fan was drunk, and it was proved that he was indeed just a loss of skill, and his body was the same as that of an ordinary young man, but he just had more gray hair, and even after going out on the street, many women still felt that Datang Qingsheng had white hair, which was even more handsome and extraordinary.
On this day, Bai Fa was recuperating at home, and was summoned to the palace by the emperor, saying that he wanted to discuss military affairs.
The important ministers in the council hall gathered, and when Bai Fan arrived, there was a fierce discussion and argument in the military generals.
"In my opinion, the Western Turks in the northwest will be attacked first, the place there is large, and the big ones will be fought first, and the overseas Japanese countries are just a small land, and the disease of ringworm and scabies is not to be worried." Wei Chigong shouted at the top of his voice.
"Haha, speaking of war, you have learned to drag texts as a black guy?
What kind of ringworm scabies, it's just that you want to play a big territory, so you can take up some military merits. Cheng Yanjin sneered, not saving face for Wei Chigong at all.
In this way, the two of you tear apart directly with a word, and the generals next to them join the battle group from time to time.
On the Wenchen side, they gathered together, some meditated and sitting, some whispering, and so on.
Seeing Bai Fan coming, the first person to greet him was none other than the black-faced Wei Zheng.
"Old Wei, what are you? What big move is Your Majesty going to make? Bai Fan asked.
"Hey, didn't you just pacify Tibet, Your Majesty is ambitious and arrogant, and ordered to destroy another country, let me wait to discuss, whether it is the Western Turks who have raised pigs for three years, or the Eastern Wa Kingdom that has drawn blood for three years."
Ha, Bai Fan smiled dumbly, Lao Wei's statement is really ruthless, how can you say that people are also a country, and they are all regarded as pigs and sheep by Lao Wei? It seems that in the past ten years, Lao Wei has been influenced by himself, and even said that the entire Tang Dynasty court has been influenced by himself, regards the Tang Dynasty as the upper state of the Heavenly Empire, and extremely contemptuous and even ignores foreign races.
But this description is really very appropriate, when the Western Turks took the initiative to attack Gaochang and conquered the 36 countries of the Western Regions, and suffered a big loss in the hands of the Tang Dynasty, Bai Fan and others set a plan to cut off all the trade routes of the Western Turks, so that he could rule hundreds of people to exhaust his vitality, so that after three years of captivity, the Tang Dynasty will go to destroy the Western Turks again, it will be effortless, isn't it a pig breeding plan?
And the Wa State in the east, the two countries are divided, but because of the dispatch of laborers into the Tang Dynasty and eat a lot of sweetness, send laborers year after year, the Wa State has almost become accustomed to this way of accumulating money, which is equivalent to the Tang Dynasty to pay money, from the Wa State to transfer the prime-age labor force over, in the long run, the Wa State will be a problem to recruit troops in the future, is it not a bloodsucking plan?
"Hehe, looking at your old Wei's expression, could it be that you don't agree with this plan? But you don't dare to come forward to admonish? Wait for me to give you a thunderbolt? Bai Fan said with a smile.
"What's that? When will my old Wei let others help him withstand the thunder? Besides, even if it is a thunderstorm, it is my old Wei who gives the country a thunderstorm, and he has no selfish interests in official affairs.
It's just that the country is getting stronger and stronger, Your Majesty is full of pride, Lao Wei and I have self-knowledge, and now even if I am killed on the beam alone, I am afraid I will not be able to stop Your Majesty, so I want Jian Zhi to come forward, after all, you speak more strongly than those of us.
You can't sit idly by, there have been many problems in the Tang Dynasty for many years, although they are all big victories, but whether a war is won or lost, it is a loss of national vitality, the catastrophe of the Han Dynasty in the past is just around the corner, we can't repeat the mistakes of the past. ”
Wei Zheng said extremely sincerely, Bai Fan can hear the difficulty in it, the generals have always only been in charge of fighting and ignoring the government, not just to fight for those inexhaustible military merits, most of the generals have been promoted, they just want to reflect the value of their generals in the war, if it really becomes a peaceful and prosperous era, the generals may only slowly go behind the scenes, or even be hidden or withdrawn from the stage.
But civil officials are different, military generals fight the world, civil officials rule the world, the Tang Dynasty opens the door of the court every day, that is, tens of millions of people are waiting to be fed and open their mouths to eat and drink, everyone understands the truth that belligerence will die, and there has been no war for five consecutive years, so all civil officials are a little afraid.
Not only Wei Zheng found Bai Fan, but all the Wenchen came around, looking at that expression, Bai Fan knew that they all meant the same thing, and they were unwilling to continue fighting.
Of course, the generals would not let Wenchen pull the shelf, and they also surrounded him, and at this time, Li Er from the apse came out, and the discussion of the palace of the government hall officially began.
