Chapter 21 Chengyang's Careful Thinking
Chapter 21
Li Shimin sat there and talked about Qin Huaidao's affairs. He asked the ministers how Qin Huaidao should arrange it. Li Shimin's meaning was very clear just now. Qin Huaidao didn't care about official positions at all.
"I'm still young now, and I may not understand. Your Majesty, you should try him well!" Li Jing said with some concern when he heard this.
He and Qin Shubao are also very good brothers. His family also has a share in the brick factory. He also hopes that Qin Huaidao can stand up on behalf of the Qin family!
"Your Majesty, Qin Huaidao is still young now, so why not arrange a civilian position for him and let him grow up for a few years first. Anyway, there is still time!" Changsun Wuji heard it, thought about it for a while, and said to Li Shimin.
"I have considered this, but I am worried that you veterans will have any opinions on my arrangements for him like this. Don't think that I don't know. Many of you have opinions on Boping's title last time!" Li Shimin said and looked at Li Jing, and at the same time looked at Fang Xuanling.
When Li Jing heard this, he immediately looked at Li Shimin and said, "This child was wronged last time, everyone knows why, hey!"
"I will tell you the truth about the last time, there is no way! Now I can only let Boping take charge, but I will definitely restore his position as a Duke.
But this child seems to have not come out of the last attack. Although he looks very quiet, he has no desire for official positions. I don’t want to see this. He wants to learn from his uncle!” Li Shimin looked at Li Jing and said,
When Li Jing heard this, he felt much relieved. Since Li Shimin said that he would restore his position as a Duke, then it would be okay to be a civil servant. After all, Qin Huaidao is not yet sixteen years old, so it would be good to train through civil servants.
"Then your Majesty, you should arrange for him to be a civil servant. This child is really liked by the old minister. He has a deep understanding of the investigation of things! The old minister doesn't want him to fall into depravity, so let him train through the civil servant first, that's fine!" Li Jing nodded and looked at Li Shimin and said.
"Okay?" Li Shimin looked at Li Jing again and asked.
"Okay, Lao Chen will talk to Yao Jin, Jingde and the others, I believe they can understand what they said. After all, Bo Ping is still so young!" Li Jing nodded.
When Li Shimin heard this, he was relieved. He was worried that the veterans would have opinions. The last time, the veterans were worried about Boping and Qin Shubao. He knew very well that if the arrangements were not made this time, the veterans would definitely have greater opinions.
At this moment, at Qin Huaidao's house, Qin Huaidao was directing the servants at home to pick up the pulp, put it in the gauze frame, and then take it to the yard to dry.
Without Qin Huaidao's orders, no one could come in. There were soldiers at the door and around. The servants who were doing things inside were also old people in the mansion, and they were all trustworthy. The whole pit was completed by the servants in the mansion in five days and could get more than 50,000 large pieces of paper.
"There are papers available now!" Qin Huaidao sat in the study, smiling. These papers were no worse than rice paper, just like those white papers in later generations.
Then I took the brush and started writing words, feeling very satisfied.
Now Qin Huaidao has become accustomed to loneliness and enjoys a peaceful life in the study alone, which is very peaceful. However, Qin Huaidao also knew in his heart that this peace would soon be broken and he was going to be an official!
"Young Master, King Jin and Princess Chengyang are visiting!" At this moment, the housekeeper came in and reported to Qin Huaidao.
"Ask!" Qin Huaidao heard this, put down his brush, put away the white paper and hid it. Then when he arrived at the entrance of the study, he saw Li Zhi and Princess Chengyang coming in.
Princess Chengyang is now even more handsome. When she saw Qin Huaidao, her face turned red.
"I have met His Highness King Jin and His Highness Princess Chengyang!" Qin Huaidao immediately bowed and said when he saw them coming.
"Didn't I say that I don't need to bow in the future. Oh, Chengyang is here today, please don't give me a gift!" Li Zhi was a little surprised to see Qin Huaidao's salute. He told him that he would not need to bow in the future when he came to the mansion. However, with Princess Chengyang here now, Li Zhi couldn't say anything.
"I don't have to salute you anymore. I just come here to ask for a cup of tea. Brother Boping, can you?" Princess Chengyang immediately answered the words and said with a smile.
"Of course, please!" Qin Huaidao stood up and made a gesture of invitation to them. Li Zhi and Li Lixian walked into Qin Huaidao's study. Li Lixian also looked at Qin Huaidao's study and found that there was no obvious change, and it was still the same.
"Please sit down!" Qin Huaidao greeted them with a smile
"There is another month left, and Dingyou is about to end. Two days ago, my father asked me, how are you handsome? I guess my father is also considering how to arrange you!" Li Zhi held the tea and said to Qin Huaidao with a smile.
"I'm embarrassed by Your Majesty. Just arrange it any one. Brother Wei Shan knows that I'm really not interested in this. If I have a brother above me, I will definitely be escaping from the world and studying!" Qin Huaidao said with a wry smile at Li Zhi.
"That's not possible. You are a master in the field of studying things. Now my palace has made such a tea set, and there are chairs here in my palace, which are also available in my palace!" Princess Chengyang immediately denied Qin Huaidao's words, she didn't want Qin Huaidao to do this.
"Well, what kind of investigation is everyone? It's just a little gadget. Besides, being an official and studying things are two different things. If you can do a good job in investigation, it does not mean that you can be a good official!" Qin Huaidao said to Princess Chengyang with a smile.
"Well, you have to try it too. Not to mention that you want to be a high-ranking official, at least, you also need to go out and walk more. You are so young, you are so dull, which is not good!" Princess Chengyang thought for a moment and said to Qin Huaidao.
"Well, what Chengyang said is very true. I remember. From now on, I will go out to walk the cockfight and sing to rob a prostitute!" Qin Huaidao nodded with a smile.
"Just walk the horse and fight the cock, just walk the song and rob prostitutes, right? This will defile your reputation!" Princess Chengyang heard it and looked at Qin Huaidao a little anxiously.
When Li Zhi saw the two of them coming and going, he couldn't help laughing.
"Brother Jiu, why are you laughing?" Princess Chengyang saw Li Zhi laughing, her face turned red in an instant, and she looked at Li Zhi with reproach.
"It's nothing. I just thought of something funny. By the way, you guys continue, continue!" Li Zhi said to Qin Huaidao and the others with a smile, which made Qin Huaidao a little embarrassed.
"Anyway, you can't be so angry. This is not good. Brother Boping, you are so young, you are so angry and have no sharpness, which is not good!" Princess Chengyang continued to speak there, Qin Huaidao, and Qin Huaidao nodded with a smile.
"Isn't the palace busy today?" Qin Huaidao wanted to change the topic at this moment. After all, it was too early to discuss this topic.
Moreover, how you develop in the future depends on what Li Shimin means. At present, I do not have the strength to compete with Li Shimin.
"Well, it's because of the many things that I learned from you. I took a break from my busy schedule. During this period, my elder brother and my fourth brother were fighting each other!" Li Zhi said with a wry smile.
Because the prince introduced the Turks into the Eastern Palace, Li Shimin was very dissatisfied. The Turks were all killed. At the same time, Li Shimin also increased his reward to the King of Wei. Because the King of Wei produced the "Guodizhi", Li Shimin praised it very much and rewarded it continuously.
With so many rewards, those who support the prince quit, and those who support the King of Wei also have ambitions. They have been talking about the goodness of the King of Wei, hoping that the King of Wei can share more court affairs. Therefore, the two sides have had a hard time in the court.
Li Shimin was also very upset. Now Li Zhi and the others are the same. Many people came to him, hoping that he could support one of them, but Li Zhi didn't want to do so at all.
"Oh, it's good to take a break from your busy schedule!" Qin Huaidao nodded with a smile. He didn't ask in detail. It would be better if he didn't know about such a thing.
"Well, Brother Jiu, have you been there on the side of Prince?" Cheng Yang seemed to remember something, so he looked at Li Zhi and asked.
"I've been here and persuaded several times. The prince's brother has a lot of opinions about his father. It's mainly because he's so kind to his fourth brother. Oh, I don't know what's wrong?" Li Zhi sighed and said, Qin Huaidao pretended not to hear it and continued to refill them.
"Well, you'd better not participate anyway. My father is already annoyed enough now." Princess Chengyang heard it and nodded.
"I won't go. I don't want to make my father unhappy. I want to move out of the palace, even if it's a vassal, but my father never lets go, and I can't do anything!" Li Zhi sat there and said,
Qin Huaidao heard this and laughed. Li Shimin would definitely not allow it. In fact, Qin Huaidao has been in the Tang Dynasty for so long. He found that Li Shimin was very concerned about Li Zhi, and even had to review his homework himself. Moreover, those masters who served as Li Zhi were also knowledgeable and talented people.
Qin Huaidao thought that Li Shimin might have given up on them for a long time, and now he just put them there and let them fight. Anyway, he had already trained a Li Zhi, so that once they completely disappointed the ministers, he would recommend Li Zhi out.
This is just Qin Huaidao's guess. He dare not make a judgment now. However, two years later, that is, in the 17th year of Zhenguan, Li Zhi would be named the crown prince. He felt that the speculation was correct.
The current crown prince and the King of Wei are just Li Shimin's chess pieces. Of course, at the beginning, the crown prince was not a chess piece, but the crown prince had no virtue, which disappointed Li Shimin. He simply carried out a King of Wei and let the two of them fight.
It is also possible that Li Shimin deliberately introduced the King of Wei in order to temper the prince, but the prince didn't know that it was a threat, but instead went further and further. Who knows!
Anyway, Qin Huaidao thought that the court was unstable in the past two years, so it would be better for him to be more stable. Otherwise, if he was involved, he would be undissuaded. Qin Huaidao even thought, let's not go to the court within two years, but several uncles and uncles said that it would not work, and he might not go.
