(Thank you for the return of my old friend Mengmengmeng, Xie Lu Xie reward!) ）

Li Jing was very cordial and chatted with Yu Cong and Cui Anqian for a long time, and then climbed the jade steps and sat on the iron chair to start the discussion.

As usual, the steps of the court meeting were abridged by the Cabinet Minister's Briefing, and Luo Ye, the second assistant of the Cabinet, while reading, explained some of the important Cabinet Chapters' draft votes and the Cabinet's approval together, and it took a full hour before and after.

Li Jing listened while rubbing the unicorn jade paperweight on the case, thinking about what position to give Cui Anqian and them for a while. He glanced down and saw Cui Yunqing's eyes slightly closed, kneeling on the ground like an old monk, and Li Zhen couldn't stop peeking at Cui Anqian and a few others. Cui Anqian and a few people lived in the last seat, but they listened to Luo Ye's lecture very seriously.

The arrival of Cui Anqian and the others was like a pebble thrown into a pond, breaking the original peace.

In terms of ability, Cui Anqian's five people may be stronger than most of the people in this hall. They are from famous families, and they all have many years of experience in commanding an army, and they are highly respected and can excel. If only from the perspective of ability and background, qualifications, etc., Li Jing is not too much to let them be the chief officials of the provincial cabinet and court.

But on the other hand, their sudden arrival is bound to upset the original balance. No matter how capable they are, they join halfway, like cutting in line. And because of their ability and prestige, they all have to be inserted in front all of a sudden, so the more they insert the front, the more unhappy the group of original queuers behind them.

And in some ways, Li Jing wants to use their talents. But I don't want to join these halfway. The former court officials who did not have much loyalty to the Qin Domain. Occupy too much voice in the Qin Domain.

They are talented, but they are not pure enough.

And Li Jing must maintain his purity to the Qin clan at all times.

Giving too high an official position will cause dissatisfaction among many civil and military personnel, and at the same time, it will also increase the difficulty of control.

There are too few officials who can be given, which will disappoint Cui Anqian and others, after all, if they come to vote, if they don't get what they expect. It's very likely that you will turn around and leave.

This requires a balanced amount, not too high and not too low.

He pondered for a long time and felt that he should first make the false titles higher and add a few more, so as to show that they are highly respected and have deep qualifications, which reflects Li Jing's attention to them. But at the same time, in terms of substantive work, we must be cautious and cautious. The last thing is to let them serve as civilians, even if they are military positions. Nor can they be inserted into the troops of the core.

With such an idea, Li Jing finally came up with a plan.

Li Jing saw that Luo Ye had finished speaking, so he spoke: "The Ministry of Rites is still the book, has the wedding team received anyone, how are the preparations for the wedding?" ”

Hearing King Qin's inquiry about this, Han Anbang, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, hurriedly got up and said: "Back to King Qin, the Ministry of Rites has already sent a team of 3,000 people to Shandong three days ago, and the four teams of the Yu family have arrived in Licheng, Qizhou, Shandong to converge. After the pick-up team arrived in Licheng, in order to ensure that there was no one left, the Ministry of Rites and the General Staff chose to go to Dengzhou first, then take a boat to go to sea and take the sea route to Tianjin Port to dock, and then directly change to a river boat along the canal to the south of Yanjing City Triumphal Arch. ”

This marriage between the King of Qin and the Yu family is of great importance and involves a huge alliance of interests, so it is necessary to ensure that nothing goes wrong, and the team does not go to Hebei, but to the sea, which is the result of prudence and prudence.

Li Jing didn't think that he would take the Hebei land route, Han Jian and Wang Jingchong dared to have the courage to go deep into the Qin realm to attack the welcoming team. However, since the Ministry of Rites and even the General Staff Committee pulled out to make such a meticulous plan, Li Jing did not object again.

This big wedding is not only the marriage between Li Jing and Yu, this marriage shook the whole world.

Because Li Jing is the strongest vassal king today, and the Yu family is also a top valve.

Li Jing's fiancée's father, Yu Xuan, was the envoy of the Tianping Army, and controlled a piece of important land east of the canal east of Luoyang and south of the Yellow River, Cao, Yun, and Pu.

The other three concubines who married were not simple.

Yu Cong, the prime minister of Yizong and this dynasty, Princess Shang Guangde, is the uncle of today's son.

Yu Gui, the former Shannan Dongdao Festival Envoy, is currently the Lingnan Dongdao Festival Envoy.

Yu Qiu, the former Guiguan Observation Envoy, is now the Lingnan West Road Festival Envoy.

Li Jing married the Yu family and married the daughters of the four Yu brothers at once, which is equivalent to winning the full support of Yu Cong, the prime minister of the two dynasties, Tianping Town, and the east and west towns of Lingnan. Previously, Li Jing had married the Zhang family, the Xiao family, the Wang family, the Pei family, and the Bohai family.

After Zhang Rui, the former assassin of Songzhou, married his daughter to Li Jing, he did not serve in the Qin Domain for a long time, and now he has been recommended by Li Jing to serve as an observer envoy in Fujian, and the mighty army is appointed to the post. And the elder brothers of the two concubines that Li Jing married last year, Qian Jun and Yang Xingmi, are not simple now.

After receiving strong support from Li Jing, Qian Biao has now defeated Liu Hanhong in eastern Zhejiang with Dong Chang. Dong Chang was appointed as the envoy of the Yisheng Army, and Qian Biao was appointed as the envoy of the Zhendong Army and the history of Hangzhou Thorn, although it was still under Dong Chang's name for the time being, but in fact he already had an independent territory.

Yang Xingmi developed faster, and he already had a good force. After Gao Biao gradually became unable to control Huaixi, recognized Yang Xingmi's status, and appointed him as the assassin of Luzhou, Yang Xingmi expanded rapidly, possessed Luzhou, and then seized Hezhou in the east, and then sent troops across the Yangtze River, invaded Xuanshe, and seized the Xuanzhou region south of the Yangtze River. Rising in Huaixi, the wings are gradually abundant. Self-proclaimed Huaixi Festival Envoy!

And if it is regarded as Yicheng Town, which has a very good relationship with Li Jing, Kang Chengzhi, Xuanwu Town, Xin Yan.

So in addition to Li Jing's Qin domain, which is now divided into three parts of the world, there are also eight feudal towns of Tianping, Yicheng, Xuanwu, Huaixi, Zhendong, Lingnandong, Lingnanxi, and Fujian to reach an alliance.

From Pyongyang to the coast to Jiaozhou, the eastern coast, now only half of Huainan Town in Gaobiao, half of Zhexi Town in Zhoubao, Zhedong Town in Dongchang, and Henghai Town in Vietnam, and the rest of the long coastline of tens of thousands of miles, almost all prefectures and counties belong to Li Jing's alliance.

Horizontally, both banks of the lower reaches of the Yellow River have been controlled by Li Jing, and both banks of the middle and lower reaches of the Huai River. It is almost all controlled by Li Jing. Even the Yangtze River. The section of the river that runs north-south downstream, which is extremely important. It is also controlled by Yang Xingmi, and indirectly by Li Jing.

Nearly half of the North-South Grand Canal is also under Li Jing's control.

It can be said that through continuous marriages and alliances, Li Jing has formed a huge network and put the eastern region into his pocket. By controlling the sea, part of the canal, the Yellow River, the Ji River, and the Yangtze River, he spread his power almost all over the east.

And. Li Jing is still forming alliances with many wealthy lords, Lanling Xiao Clan, Qinghe Cui Clan, Boling Cui Clan, Qingzhou Han Clan, Jingguang Weidu, Hedong Pei Clan, Taiyuan Wang Clan, Guanzhong Song Clan, etc., more and more big families have begun to cooperate with Li Jing, although they have not said that they will abandon the imperial court and only support Li Jing, but this is still an extremely dangerous signal.

Li Jing was exempted from light taxes and military service. It has won the hearts of hundreds of people. The implementation of education for all and examinations has also attracted talents from all over the world. The major warlords of the alliance. won the support of the upper echelons for Li Jing.

It seems that Li Jing loves beauties, and he marries one when he sees one. But in fact, if you take a closer look, you will find that every time Li Jing marries a concubine, it is not as simple as being lustful on the surface. In addition to the early wife and concubine, each of these women married by Li Jing later brought him huge support from his wife. Taiyuan Wang's, Hedong Pei's, Lanling Xiao's, Xuzhou Zhang's and so on.

Through marriage, Li Jing has won countless help for himself through his woman.

It wasn't obvious before, but today, when Li Jing and Yu's marriage was suddenly supported by a prime minister of two dynasties and three marshals of feudal towns, all parties were shaken. Li Jing is too cunning, and he has both people and money. not only married a beauty, but also tied up with the Yu family, and received countless supports.

Li Jing gently put down the unicorn paperweight and said, "The wedding will be hosted by the ministry." Now there is an important matter to announce, Cui Shangshu and General Zhang, Du Shuai, Li Shuai, etc. are all pillars of the country, and now the national disaster, several people have come to Yanjing all the way to Yanjing, regardless of personal gains and losses, and are willing to contribute to the rebellion of King Qin, Zhongxing Datang, and Lone is very happy and welcome. Gu asked Situ and Cui Guogong to deign to be appointed as the governors of the left army and the right governor of the Five Armies Governor's Mansion today. The crown prince Taibao and the general of Huaiyang County are invited to serve as the right governor of the right army of the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, and the prince Taifu and Du Shuai of Xicheng County are invited to serve as the right governor of the former army of the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, and Tongping Zhangshi, the chief lieutenant of the inspection school, and Li Shuai, the prince of Xiping County, are invited to serve as the right governor of the rear army. For the time being, please give in to a few people, and after you get used to it, I will definitely ask you to take on more important positions. ”

Originally, there were only five governors in the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, which were the Governors of the Five Armies in the front, back, left, and right. Now that there are four big Buddhas at once, Li Jing wants to reuse them, and he has to take into account the feelings of the old subordinates of the Qin Domain, and at the same time, he also has to observe a few thoughts. If after observing, I feel that a few people are indeed trustworthy, and it will be too late for Li Jing to give him another important position.

Li Jing added five new governors of the five armies, and each army was divided into left and right governors. Let the four people go out of the right governor, and the grade is the same as the left governor. Moreover, from a practical point of view, it is also a great trust to arrange them to serve as governors in the governor's palace of the five armies. In the Qin Domain, the General Staff, the Governor's Office of the Five Armies and the Military Department had the right to command the troops, the Governor's Office of the Five Armies was in charge of the troops, and the General Staff was in charge of the right to transfer troops. The Governor's Office of the Five Armies has the right to command all the armies of the Qin Domain, and the Governor of the Five Armies is the supreme official of the Governor's Office.

As soon as Cui Yunqing and others came, they could take up such an important position as the governor of the five armies, even if there was a left governor in front, it still showed Li Jing's great trust.

On the other hand, Li Jing made them the governors of the five armies, so that their talents and prestige could be brought into play. Second, there are five governors of the left army in front, even if these Tang court ministers have any ideas that they shouldn't have, they can monitor and balance at any time.

According to the system, officials below the fifth rank in the Ministry of Officials are promoted and transferred, and the Ministry of Shangshu and the cabinet are responsible for the promotion and transfer of officials below the fifth rank and below the third rank. The promotion and transfer of officials above the third rank must be personally promoted by Li Jing, the king of Qin. The Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies is the top yamen within the Qin Domain, and the Governor is much higher than the Provincial Governor. The governor of the five armies, the governor of the government, from the second rank of the important members, their appointment power is in the hands of Li Jing.

Now that Li Jing is directly appointed by the palace to Cui Anqian and several other positions, although Li Zhen, Cao Ye and other provincial cabinet officials feel a little surprised, after all, this is an important member of the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, and the King of Qin has always stuffed all four of them into it, accounting for half of the Yamen of the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies.

They were stunned for a moment, but then they realized that it was okay. If they objected, they couldn't think of a more suitable position for a while. It would be even more inappropriate to say that they should go out to lead the troops.

Li Jing didn't wait for everyone to express his position, and then said: "I can let Gai Gong and Yu Gong be transferred, and I plan to transfer Gai Yu to the right staff envoy of the General Staff, because Cong will serve as the secretary of the ministry." ”

The envoy of the General Staff is from the second grade, and the secretary is the third grade. Gai Yu was promoted, but Yu Cong was demoted on the first day of his appointment. But if you calculate it carefully, you can't do it. Although the official department is only the third product, it is the head of the six departments of the province, and the official department is the one who participates in political affairs in the political affairs hall, and the authority is great. Although the envoy of the General Staff is from the second rank, he is in charge of the right to transfer troops, and he is the most important yamen in the military. However, even if it has long been stipulated that the envoy of the General Staff is appointed by the civil minister, there are still many concepts that the military is cheap and noble, and that the envoy of the General Staff is actually not as noble as the official secretary. Therefore, in this reversal, whether the two are rising or falling, this is something that no one can say.

However, if you only look at the resumes of the two people, Yu Cong turned out to be the prime minister of the imperial court, and the right shot of Shangshu Province has now become the official Shangshu, which is obviously a demotion. But he has always been a civil minister, and it is obviously more suitable for Gai Yu to replace him as an envoy of the General Staff. Moreover, with Yu Cong's qualifications and prestige, he is indeed more talented as a celestial official in the position of secretary of the ministry.

"Ladies and gentlemen, do you have any objections to Lone's proposal?" Li Jing glanced at everyone in the hall.

Cui Yunqing, as the head of the class, came out of the class and said: "I think that the appointment of King Qin is to make the best use of his talents, which is very suitable, and there is no objection to it." ”

Cui Yunqing took the lead in expressing her position, and naturally no one had any objections in the future, and the appointment of six officials above the third grade in a row was all approved.

"If there is no objection, then the matter will be settled." Li Jing's words changed, "The cabinet immediately planned to report these proposed appointments to the Son of Heaven in Chengdu, and asked His Majesty to give royal approval." ”

Jing Xiang, who was standing below, couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly when he heard this, and finally came. He could imagine what kind of wonderful expression the Son of Heaven in Chengdu would have on his face when he received this report. His prime minister and several marshals actually ran to Li Jing's hands, how could he be embarrassed? And Li Jing has obviously appointed these people's official positions, but he still wants to deliberately ask him for royal approval, isn't this deliberately disgusting him?

However, Jing Xiang will not feel sympathy for the Son of Heaven, who made him unable to see the situation clearly.

Thinking of this, he got up and went out of the queue and said: "King, at the beginning of this month, Huang Chao defeated the four towns of Guanzhong in Chang'an, and the thief Zhu Wen broke Zhuge Shuang, who returned to the Tang Dynasty in Biankou anyway, and his subordinates dared to speak, all of which were traitors in the court, bewitching the king, so that there were some big defeats. At the risk of death, I implore the King of Qin to take this time of danger, regardless of personal gains and losses, for the sake of the Tang Dynasty, choose a wise and powerful clan, temporarily supervise the country, and lead us to win this war of rebellion! ”

Cui Anqian and several other important ministers who had just joined the Qin Domain couldn't help but change their faces slightly when they heard this, and they never expected that on the first day of their participation in the Qin Domain, they would encounter this kind of earth-shattering event to establish a separate prison country. Cui Anqian couldn't help but jump out to object, but Li Jing was already one step ahead of him, got up and shouted: "Hugh is talking nonsense, being alone as a Tang Chen, and even more respectfully calling the Son of Heaven an imperial uncle." Now, even if the traitors in the DPRK and China are in power, and the situation is dangerous, but the more this time, the more Your Majesty needs our fierce loyalty, no matter what, there is no need to say such nonsense in the future. ”

Li Jing waved his hand, and today's deliberations ended.

Although Jing Xiang was scolded by Li Jing on the surface, there was no anger on his face, because this was originally something he had discussed with King Qin, and everything was just a show. Today's recital sent to Chengdu will only be about the official appointment request of the imperial court to approve the official appointment of Cui Anqian and a few people. But he believed that when this letter was folded, the Son of Heaven Li Yi would definitely know about the proposal he had just put forward to ask for the supervision of the sect.

As long as Li Yi knew that he had made this proposal, it didn't matter whether King Qin refused righteously and sternly.

The important thing is to let the Son of Heaven know that since King Qin can refuse today, then it is possible to agree tomorrow! If he still wants to do something to Qin Fan, he has to think about the consequences! (To be continued......)
