"Li Xiu, did you really decide to resign from your official position?" I saw Li Shimin pondering for a while, and then he slowly asked, staring at Li Xiu in front of him with a pair of tiger eyes.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty...... I really want to resign! Li Xiu originally wanted to find another reason, but in the face of Li Shimin's gaze, he didn't want to lie anymore, and replied in a deep voice at the moment.

"Well, when I didn't ascend the throne, I promised that I would never force you to do anything you didn't like, and since you were determined to resign, then I won't force you to keep you, I just hope that when I encounter difficulties, you can help me!" I saw Li Shimin let out a long breath at this time, and then stared at Li Xiu and said slowly.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, if Your Majesty is useful to the ministers in the future, the ministers will naturally not refuse!" Li Xiu saw that Li Shimin promised to resign from office, and he also showed an ecstatic expression at the moment, he didn't expect Li Shimin to remember the promise he made to himself, if he hadn't mentioned it, Li Xiu himself would have forgotten it.

"Your Majesty......" The eldest grandson Wuji didn't expect Li Shimin to agree to Li Xiu, and he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then said a little anxiously, wanting to persuade Li Shimin to think about it carefully.

"Wuji, don't say it, Li Xiu has indeed been too busy in the past few years, and it's time to take a good rest!" Li Shimin interrupted the words of the eldest grandson Wuji at this time, which made the eldest grandson Wuji only shake his head helplessly.

"By the way, since Li Xiu is leaving, who do you think is more suitable for the position of financial supervisor?" At this time, Li Shimin turned his head to look at Li Xiudao again, the role of banks is becoming more and more important, not only to promote the development of commerce, but also a major source of imperial finance, such as this attack on Goguryeo, some military expenses are temporarily borrowed from banks.

"Your Majesty, I have already considered this issue before, Xu Jingzong did a good job, but he is a bit greedy for money, and I don't feel at ease about putting him in the position of financial supervisor, so I want to recommend him to serve as the Huangmen squire, as for the candidate for the financial supervisor, it is still up to His Majesty to decide personally!" Li Xiu had nothing to hide, and immediately told his thoughts that he was not optimistic about Xu Jingzong.

"Haha~, I see that you like to use Xu Jingzong so much, and I thought you didn't know his shortcomings, but I didn't expect you to know better than anyone else!" When Li Shimin heard Li Xiu's comments on Xu Jingzong, he couldn't help laughing at the moment and said, Xu Jingzong was also the old man of his Qin Palace, but he clearly knew that there was something wrong with this person's private morality, so he never reused it.

"Hehe, Xu Jingzong's private morality is at a loss, but his ability is first-class, if such a talent is not used, it is really a pity, and with His Majesty here, even if he is put in the court, he will not be able to stir up any big storms, but he must not be a supervisor, otherwise it will be bad!" Li Xiu also smiled at this time and commented on Xu Jingzong again.

"Don Ma, your vision is really vicious, and the key to it was revealed at once, Xu Jingzong can use his talents, but he can't use his virtues, someone must keep an eye on him at all times, so that he can give full play to his ability!" Eldest Sun Wuji couldn't help but laugh out loud when he heard Li Xiu's words, and agreed.

"The horse is to the point, I was reluctant to use Xu Jingzong before, but it seems a little ungraceful." Li Shimin couldn't help but smile when he heard this, but then he turned to Li Xiu again and said, "Since Xu Jingzong can't serve as a financial supervisor, then you can recommend another person, after all, you are most familiar with this aspect, and I am afraid that rashly appointing an unsuitable person to this position will cause the financial supervisor that has been developed with great difficulty to encounter any obstacles in the future." ”

Seeing that Li Shimin kicked the matter of the financial supervisor to himself again, this made Li Xiu feel a little helpless, but he was embarrassed to refuse again, and then replied after pondering for a while: "Your Majesty, among the ministers who know the minister, the most suitable person is probably Cen Wenwen, he is already good at internal affairs, and he is also very familiar with scheduling, as long as he is willing to take over the affairs of the financial supervisor, he should be able to adapt quickly, but his current position is too high, and I am afraid it is a little inappropriate to be a financial supervisor again." ”

Speaking of the end, Li Xiu couldn't help but smile bitterly, Cen Wenwen was indeed the most suitable person among the people he knew, but Cen Wenwen had made a great contribution this time and had been crowned as Qingguanglu Doctor, and even Li Shimin wanted him to hold a position in the East Palace, and he would definitely have to pay homage to the prime minister in the future, and it was indeed a bit condescending to let him go to the financial supervisor.

Li Shimin showed a contemplative expression when he heard Li Xiu's words, and after a long while, he raised his head and asked again: "Then besides Cen Wenwen, do you have any other candidates?" ”

"In addition to Cen Wenwen's words, the minister thinks that he can be promoted to Liu Renliang, who is in charge of the money bureau, firstly, he is already familiar with the affairs of the financial supervisor, although the former supervisor is to mint money, but he is also very familiar with the affairs of the bank, and secondly, he has a square personality and will never show favoritism, which Xu Jingzong can not compare with him at all, plus Liu Renliang's ability is also quite good, if he is allowed to take over the financial supervisor, it will definitely make the financial supervisor stronger in the future, but his qualifications are still a little shallow, I am afraid that he may not be able to convince the public." Li Xiu spoke again at this time.

"Liu Renliang is also very optimistic about this person, his qualifications are indeed a little shallow, and Cen Wenwen I also have other arrangements, this ......" After Li Shimin listened to Li Xiu's words, he couldn't help but muttered to himself in contemplation, and his face also showed a somewhat difficult expression.

After a long while, I saw Li Shimin suddenly pat the book case and said: "Yes, let Cen Wenwen temporarily take over the financial supervision instead of the concubine, and then let him focus on cultivating Liu Renliang, and when Liu Renliang's prestige is enough, I will transfer Cen Wenwen away, so that there will be no delay!" ”

"Your Majesty is wise!" Li Xiu was also greatly admired when he heard Li Shimin's words, this is indeed a good way to get the best of both worlds.

After the discussion of the matter of the financial supervisor, Li Shimin then inquired about the matter of the printing office, which was much simpler, after all, although the printing office was important, it was very simple, and any confidant official could do it, and there were some other things, and when all the things were discussed, Li Shimin approved Li Xiu's resignation and agreed to his request to resign.

At this time, it was getting late, Li Xiu said goodbye to Li Shimin at the moment, and Li Shimin personally sent him out of the Liangyi Palace, until Li Xiu's back disappeared behind the palace wall, he sighed again and did not speak for a long time.

"Your Majesty, why do you agree to the resignation of the horse?" At this moment, the eldest grandson Wuji next to him finally couldn't help but ask again.

"Li Xiu's personality is lazy, he doesn't like to be an official, but for some reasons, he let him enter the court step by step, and it is difficult for him all these years, and now he wants to leave, and I don't want to stay, so I fulfilled his wish!" Li Shimin took a long breath at this time.

"But Li Xiu can't find a second talent in the entire Tang Dynasty, wouldn't it be a pity for Your Majesty to let him go now?" The eldest grandson Wuji is still a little unwilling, he is also a proud person, and he rarely really admires a person, and Li Xiu is an exception.

Hearing these words of the eldest grandson Wuji, I saw that Li Shimin did not answer immediately, but turned around and walked towards the Liangyi Palace, and the eldest grandson Wuji also hurriedly followed, and then Li Shimin let the people around him also disperse, surrounded by an empty square, which was very suitable for the two to talk.

"Mowgli, I heard that during my absence, you and the crown prince had some unpleasantness?" Li Shimin suddenly asked at this time.

The eldest grandson Wuji was also stunned when he heard his words, he was still discussing Li Xiu's matter just now, why did Li Shimin suddenly talk about himself and the prince again? However, after a short period of surprise, the eldest grandson Wuji quickly reacted, nodded and said: "The minister and the prince did have some quarrels, maybe the prince felt that the minister was too lenient, so he was a little dissatisfied with the minister." ”

If it were another person, I am afraid that he would not dare to confess so frankly in front of Li Shimin, but the eldest grandson Wuji did not have any scruples, of course, he would not directly say that Li Chengqian was not, but took the initiative to take the responsibility on himself.

"You don't have to talk to him, Cheng Qian is becoming more and more impertinent, and he can't even tell who is good to him!" Li Shimin snorted coldly at this time, and when Li Chengqian was mentioned, his face also showed a little obvious dissatisfaction.

"Your Majesty doesn't have to be too harsh on the crown prince, after all, he is still young, and sometimes he is inevitably a little impulsive when he speaks and acts." The eldest grandson Wuji persuaded again at this time, although he was also very dissatisfied with Li Chengqian, but he would never show it directly in front of Li Shimin, which is also his cleverness, after all, people are father and son, no matter how Li Shimin scolds Li Chengqian, maybe he will forget it after he is angry, so the eldest grandson Wuji also has to leave room for himself.

"Impulsive? I don't think he knows what to do, I'm afraid you don't know that the reason why Li Xiu resigned has a lot to do with the prince! Li Shimin said angrily again at this time.

"How can there be a prince to do so?" Eldest Sun Wuji was really stunned at this time, he really didn't know the news.

"Li Xiu knew that you had a conflict with the prince, and it is estimated that he wanted to persuade the prince, so he invited the prince to his mansion, but the prince refused to see him at all, and it is estimated that it was precisely because of this incident that Li Xiu's heart was really broken and he had the intention of resigning!" Li Shimin said angrily again, Li Xiu is Li Chengqian's husband, as the so-called teacher for one day and father for life, but Li Chengqian now refuses to even see Li Xiu's face, and such a ruthless behavior also makes Li Shimin annoyed.

"This ......" The eldest grandson Wuji was also stunned after listening to Li Shimin's words, he didn't expect that there was such a thing behind Li Xiu's resignation, but then he was also secretly happy in his heart, of course, he didn't dare to show it, and after a while, he cautiously said, "The prince's move is indeed a bit excessive, and I hope Your Majesty will supervise more, so that the prince can correct it as soon as possible!" ”
