Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 3526 scheming means
Hearing Ma Zhou's words, everyone thought deeply.

The so-called tree is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it. It is true that You Tunwei has made great contributions, but this reward must be just right. If it is too light, it will be difficult to reward the merit; if it is too heavy, people will not be convinced.

All in all, it is the predicament that the East Palace is facing right now, and one must be extremely careful in every move, as a little carelessness will cause internal turmoil, which is also a helpless thing...

Li Chengqian knew that Ma Zhou was thinking about You Tunwei, and he didn't want him to be the target of public criticism, but after much deliberation, he couldn't make up his mind, so he said: "My dear friends, please help me with that idea, how can it be just right?"

This time is the most show of political wisdom, all sides weigh the pros and cons, he is still a little tender.

The few people were silent for a moment, Xiao Yu stroked his beard and said: "Everyone knows the importance of Xuanwu Gate, so the meritorious service of the Right Tunwei can be called Qingtian's protection. Among the old men, the official position of General Yunhui is still important. Otherwise, it will not be enough to reward him for his meritorious service. The captain of Qingche might as well give him the rank of captain of cavalry once he surrenders. This will also encourage Gao Kan to make new achievements. After this battle, he can be promoted again if he has new achievements. "

The twelfth turn of the rank of honor in the Tang Dynasty corresponds to the second rank to the seventh rank. The rank of honor has no real position, let alone real power. It is just a grade of military merit, and officials are awarded accordingly.

What he meant was very clear, it doesn't matter if you lower your rank, since you don't have a real job anyway.But no real job, it is also a symbol of military honor, and it is also the basis for the imperial court to appoint officials. If Gao Kan is awarded the rank of captain of the seven-turn light car right now, and will be rewarded after breaking the thief, it happens that Gao Kan will make new achievements. How to reward?

It should be noted that the conferment of honors also has to consider the family background. Since the eighth turn, it can only be awarded to nobles. Gao Kan is just a partial descendant of the Gao family in Bohai. He leads a horse in front of Shen Guogong Gao Shilian. Yuanfang who doesn't even have the qualifications to fall...

Therefore, if there is no accident, the honor rank of Lieutenant Qingche is the upper limit of Gao Kan. If one step is in place now, how will he be rewarded for new achievements in the future?It's better to leave some leeway, which can not only comfort the generals in the Eastern Palace system, but also leave a blank space for future promotion.

Li Daozong nodded and said: "Song Guogong is old enough to seek the country, so very good."

This kind of scheming and wisdom, they really can't compare with Xiao Yu, who has stood firm in three dynasties...

Li Chengqian said happily: "In this case, let's follow Song Guogong's suggestion and reward him like this."

Xiao Yu stroked his beard and clicked his lips, feeling something was wrong.It is said that Gao Kan's achievements can almost be regarded as the protection of the sky for Donggong.After all, the "Xuanwumen Change" is not far away. Everyone knows that Xuanwumen is important to Taiji Palace. It is not an exaggeration to call it the "throat". Thousands of rebels marched on foot and defended the Xuanwu Gate with their own strength, which turned the entire strategy of Donggong from passive to stalemate.

But right now, when the Crown Prince’s edict is promulgated, there must be many people who think that the rewards are insufficient, and later realize that it is he who “obstructed it” and deliberately suppressed Gao Kan’s rewards... Isn’t this offending people?

Although the Lanling Xiao family married Fang Jun, he had not completely sided with Fang Jun before that. He often swayed from side to side and repeatedly jumped sideways because of interests. Do you have no thoughts in your heart?
Then it was rumored that he was the one who suppressed him...

Shaking his head, he couldn't help laughing bitterly in his heart. Although the prince in front of him was a little weaker and his methods were still immature, as a king, he was born with the desire to balance the relationship between his subjects. It is really clever to drive a nail between myself and Fang Jun, and it will not affect the current situation of the Donggong family fighting side by side and working together.

Kind people also have small thoughts...

But now that things have come to an end, what can he say?

Immediately, a servant took the prince's seal, and Li Chengqian wrote the reward edict, stamped the seal, and ordered the servant to go out of the city to deliver the decree.

Li Daozong held out his hand to stop the edict, and said with a smile: "The promotion, appointment and removal of generals in the army is originally the responsibility of the Ministry of War. Now that the Minister of the Ministry of War is far away in the Western Regions, why not let the Minister of the Ministry of Officials take a trip. You Tun Weizhi If only the servants went to read the imperial edict, it would be a bit contemptuous."

Xiao Yu raised his head and glanced at Li Daozong, approving in his heart.

Although Fang Jun is not in Chang'an at the moment, even if Gao Kan feels dissatisfied in his heart that Xiao Yu suppressed the meritorious service deserved by You Tunwei, it will not affect the situation of working together to fight the enemy, but it is still a hidden danger.Although the situation is deadlocked at this moment, the passive side is still the East Palace, and if there is a slight difference, it may be lost forever.

Li Daozong went to read the imperial edict in person, apparently to explain it...

Work very steadily.

Li Chengqian nodded happily: "The king of the county is not only the minister of the official department, but also the uncle of the lonely emperor. He has a noble status. If he goes there in person, it will better reflect the importance of the lonely and the king of the lonely."

Li Daozong hurriedly said: "It's a matter of course."

Immediately, Li Daozong took the prince's edict and accompanied Li Junxian to Xuanwu Gate, and read the prince's award to the right guard outside Xuanwu Gate.Seeing Xiao Yu's haggard and exhausted expression, Li Chengqian knew that he couldn't bear it after staying up all night, so he was taken to a room on the side to have a rest. Preside over the overall situation.

When everyone dispersed, Li Chengqian let out a long breath, took a sip from his teacup.

Li Xiang jumped out of the back hall, came to Li Chengqian, picked up the teapot with his little hand, intending to pour tea for his father.

Li Chengqian put down his teacup, fondled the top of his son's head lovingly, feeling a lot of feelings in his heart.If the army is defeated this time and the imperial city is captured by the rebels, of course his position as the crown prince will not be preserved, and his life will also be difficult to save, even the wife, children and family members will be slaughtered.

After the "Xuanwu Gate Incident" was completed, the sins that the father did to the prince Jian Jiancheng and Qi Wang Yuanji will definitely be repeated on himself...

How humiliating is it for a man to be a father and husband but unable to protect his wife, children and family?

The Crown Princess Su came out from the back hall, stepped forward and lightly slapped Li Xiang's hand, and said angrily, "The tea is cold, how can I drink it? Go and play, don't wink."

As he spoke, he poured out the tea in the teapot, put in the tea leaves again, took the kettle and filled it with boiling water, waited for a while, and filled the teacup in front of Li Chengqian with tea.

Li Chengqian watched with a smile, his son's mouth pursed out of anger, his wife's beautiful face calm and graceful, those slender hands that bullied Frost Saixue made tea gracefully, and the exquisite and slender body exuded a faint fragrance, which matched the fragrance of tea. Mixing together makes him feel peaceful and happy.

He vowed to protect this happiness...

Crown Princess Su watched Li Chengqian put down the teacup, held the pot to refill the tea, suddenly sighed quietly, and said softly: "It's thanks to Duke Yue."

"Ok?"

Li Chengqian was taken aback for a moment, wondering why his wife said such a sentence.

Su explained: "The rebel army suddenly launched, the East Palace rushed to fight, and finally retreated to the imperial city, forming a stalemate...But has your Highness ever thought about it, it was the Duke of Yue who strongly advocated that the East Palace Six Rates should be taken from the hands of the royal father?" Come on, let’s put more effort into reorganizing it, and strongly recommend Duke Wei to take charge of the overall situation. Otherwise, we may have fallen into the hands of the thieves where the rebels rebelled. How can we resist? Let alone the remaining half Right Tunwei forcibly defeated the powerful enemy in succession, trying to keep the Xuanwu Gate intact... All these things depended on the Duke of Yue's precautions. We have the current situation, and even have the hope of turning defeat into victory, so naturally we should be grateful Duke of Yue."

Ever since she was beaten up by Fang Jun last time when she wanted to get involved in the power of the Eastern Palace, she completely understood the situation, and stayed honestly in the palace and did not dare to interfere with government affairs.But it also made her have a clear understanding of "being outside the bureau", and she was able to deeply realize that the reason why the East Palace is what it is today, or the reason why the Prince is what it is today, all depend on Fang Jun's contribution.

How could she not be grateful for such a loyal minister?The slight resentment that had arisen at first has long since dissipated completely, and there is only good feelings in my heart, and there is no dissatisfaction at all.

And how could Li Chengqian not know what she said?
Sighing lightly, he said: "Erlang has truly given me the grace of reinvention. In this life, I will never be in debt!"

After a pause, he continued: "It was just now that Song Guogong said that he would transfer Erlang back to the capital. King Wan Liqin, Gu refused on the spot. Not to mention that Gu can't hand over the Western Regions to Dashi and Turkic for the sake of reserve, but Erlang's expeditions are numerous. Thousands of miles away, the troops are at an absolute disadvantage, and at this moment, they are trying their best to deal with the enemy, how can they have the heart to make them abandon the land of bloody battles and travel thousands of miles back to Chang'an?"

The crown princess Su felt the persistence in the prince's heart, so she sighed softly, turned her head to look at the heavy snow that was still fluttering outside the window, and said quietly: "The environment in the Western Regions is bitter and cold, and I don't know how he is now..."

Back then Tuyuhun raised troops to invade the country, and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty feared the enemy and fought timidly. Only Fang Jun took the initiative to invite Ying. This kind of courage deserves the praise of "great man", and women have always worshiped the strong.

A branch of red plums slanted out of the window, and the light red blossoms on the thin branches swayed and trembled in the cold wind, blooming in full bloom in response to the cold.
