Chapter 118 Sweet Dates and Steps

Changsun rushed over to ask him for advice?

Xie Yi couldn't help but be suspicious, it was obviously abnormal

Changsun Wuji's son has inherited and educated experience. After many years, he has been meticulous and intelligent.

And even if there are any problems, should I go back and ask his father? Why do I ask myself?

Could it be that something has been done that cannot be made known to Changsun Wuji? Or is it related to the King of Jin’s Mansion?

"I wonder what the difficulties of the prince-consort? Xie Yicai is not very knowledgeable and may not be able to help."

"Don't be humble." Changsun Chong did not give him a chance to refuse and said in a deep voice: "Xiaoyao must know about the hereditary governor. I wonder what you think?"

Well……

Xie Yi was a little confused. Why did Changsun Chong suddenly ask about this? So he said cautiously: "Although Your Majesty is kind, it is true that it is not good for the country and future generations."

"Yes, my father and ministers in the court advised him, but his Majesty..."

Changsun Chong wanted to speak but stopped and hesitated, "I don't know what Xiaoyao can do? My father came back from Chengqing Hall yesterday and took the exam. I had any idea for a while. I came to my door today and just asked for advice from Brother Xiaoyao."

Xie Yi hesitated a little, and quickly passed the recent incident in his mind. When he looked at Changsun Chong's expression, he couldn't help but suddenly realize.

Li Shimin is not a confused emperor, how could he be confused about the hereditary affairs of the governor?

Looking back now, a word popped up in Xie Yi's mind.

Perhaps from the beginning, Li Shimin did not intend to do this, but there was such an appeal or demand in the court. In order to appease the aristocratic families and heroes, he issued an edict. Then he found a group of ministers to oppose it, pretending to be stubborn and persistent, and finally found an opportunity to abolish it.

As long as you take it properly and play the trick well, it will not change the orders every day, nor will it be that Li Shimin goes back on his word. It is because the ministers oppose it too much. As a king who is good at accepting advice, I have to listen.

Look, what a perfect plan. With an empty and happy promise, let the nobles of the aristocratic families look at the plum blossoms without quenching their thirst, and make people have nothing to say.

After all, according to the advice of the ministers, this is also for the benefit of the descendants of the noble family. As for the debt, it is not only the bad treatment of the noble family, but also the twenty-one princes of the royal family have also abolished this privilege. Everyone treats everyone equally. Can the emperor be said to be favored by one or the other?

Furthermore, it is probably related to the "Clanography"

First, he used a sweet date that could be seen and could not be eaten to hold his appetite. For the sake of this real power and profit, the emperor was dissatisfied with the "Clan" and was furious. Long Yan couldn't say much, so he could only suffer a loss.

Now that the re-compilation of the "Clan" is a foregone conclusion, the tempting sweet date of the hereditary governor is worthless and cannot be kept hanging. It is time to take it back.

But the stubbornness in the front is too much, and now it needs a step, a perfect step is needed.

Changsun Wuji went to Chengqing Palace. He probably discussed this matter, and he was no longer able to come forward, and then asked Changsun Chong. Or asked Changsun Chong to ask himself...

Could it be that Changsun Wuji wanted to let him come forward to support this step for Li Shimin?

It’s not right? Xie Yi felt that he was thinking too much, but since Changsun Chong asked, it wouldn’t be appropriate to not answer. What should I do?

Xie Yi's eyes kept rolling, and his eyes couldn't help but fall on Princess Changle. He had an idea and said, "Mr. Concubine, you may not be convenient for the Lord to come forward, so... it's better to let Your Highness enter the palace to persuade Your Majesty."

"Changle?"

"Yes. Your Majesty is too tough to advise, and your Majesty will inevitably be emotional. But the princess's princess is elegant and elegant. She will naturally have different effects when she persuades her with kind words."

Xie Yi said with ease: "I heard that Empress Wende often advised me in the past. Your Majesty adopted it more, but unfortunately the Empress passed away... Princess Changle came forward to persuade me as the eldest daughter, and she had the legacy of the first empress. Your Majesty thought of Empress Wende, so she would definitely obey it."

"It's wonderful" Changsun Chong exclaimed, and then worried again: "Is this move a suspicion of interfering in politics?"

"How could it be that slandering the Lord is interfering in politics, how can good words and advice be considered interfering in politics? Empress Wende's past actions have praised many subjects, but there is no complaint? Your princess follows her empathy for her mother's wise men, maybe another good story."

Xie Yi changed his concept and smiled and said, "If you have to understand it, it doesn't matter. Now, Your Majesty and Lingzun hold their own opinions and do not give in to each other. As a daughter and daughter-in-law, the princess is in the middle to mediate the dispute between her father and her husband. What does it have to do with political affairs?"

Changsun Chong smiled and said, "What Brother Xiaoyao said makes a lot of sense. Thank you. You can get a job with your father when you go home."

...

King Jin opened his mansion and Xie Yi was the chief minister.

In the court where there are thunderstorms recently, it is not a big deal, but it cannot be underestimated in the eyes of some people. Du Chuke, the Minister of Works, went to the Prince of Wei's Mansion for this purpose.

"What Du Changshi meant is that this appointment has a profound meaning?" Li Tai recently paid attention to it, mainly because the third-rank official did not need to get off the car or not, and he would inevitably ignore other matters.

However, the news that his ninth brother suddenly opened the mansion and Xie Yi was the chief minister spread, and he was still extremely shocked, especially Du Chuke made a special visit for this.

"Of course, your highness think about what happened in the court recently?"

"The abolition of the prince's ceremony, the hereditary governor, and the "Clanography", probably all of them, which one is Du Changshi?"

Du Chuke said: "Your Highness think about it again, what else is there?"

"Yu Shinan resigned, is there any... related to this?" Li Tai frowned and asked.

"Of course, your highness think about where Yu Shinan is from? Who is Xie Yi from?"

Li Tai said leisurely: "Yu Shinan is from Yuezhou, and Xie Yi is from Chenzhou..."

Du Chuke said in a deep voice: "They are all from the south, and there are not many senior officials in the court, and there are only one missing when Yu Shinan leaves. The north and the south are unified for only a few decades, and the gap remains;

Moreover, in recent years, there have been many wars and famines in the north. The court relies on the wealth of the south. How could it be possible if there are no southerners in the court?"

"What Du Changshi meant is Xie Yi was Yu Shinan's successor?" Li Tai finally realized this later.

"I think it should be right." Du Chuke said: "Yu Shinan's resignation is of great importance and will not ask him suddenly. He probably said hello to His Majesty long ago. It is very likely that when he was in Luoyang, and his Majesty has been looking for a replacement since then."

"The father chose Xie Yi? But he is young and lacks qualifications..."

Du Chuke said: "So Your Majesty intends to make him famous all over the world and improve his official title. This is the case with the former bachelor of Hongwenguan and the current chief minister of the King of Jin.

Perhaps, Your Majesty also intends to improve the ranking of the Chenjun Xie clan in the newly revised Clan.

"This... According to the emperor's words, the "Clanography" is revised, and it refers to the origins and positions of officials above the third rank, and their talents... Xie Yi is a little worse."

"It's a bit worse. He is less than twenty years old and cannot be promoted for the time being. So His Majesty used another method."

Du Chuke sighed: "I am the Minister of Works and the Chief Secretary of Your Highness's Mansion, and Xie Yi is the Chief Secretary of the Prince of Jin's Mansion. He puts aside his duties and is almost comparable to me. What's more, he is outstanding in talent and famous. When combined with all the items, how can a noble and honest person ignore it?

I heard that Gao Shilian had been to Changsun’s house yesterday, and today Changsun Chong and Princess Changle went to Xie’s house. This is interesting.”
