Chapter 294 It's time to stand in line
This list is just a thin page of paper, with about a dozen names that Li Li had almost no impression of, and their official positions were behind them.
"Are these people available to us in the court now?"
After a little glance, Li Yan was very disappointed in his words. Although he was a little unfamiliar with these names, he could still understand the official positions. Basically, he was a doctor, Shaoqing, Shaojian, and even the only one who could reach the third rank was an official position like the third rank, the Imperial Master Jijiu, who had no real power.
In other words, what these people said can basically be said to not have much weight in the court of the Tang Dynasty.
When Zhang Xun saw Li Yan's expression, he sighed and said, "I have not appeared in the court of Chang'an City for several years. Many people who passed the Jinshi together were not officials in Chang'an City. Actually, I have not contacted all the people on this list, but I can only be sure that he was not attracted by Yuan Zai."
Li Neng shook his head and thought to himself that this was probably not because Yuan Zai failed to win over, but because Yuan Zai felt that there was no need to win over these people.
"Well, I told them that I will have a rest tomorrow, which means that we have more than one day. Tomorrow I will summon the people on your list to the side hall of Tai Chi Palace in batches. Your task is to let them stand on my side. Whether they are on my side or Yuan Zai, it is time for them to choose."
"Just dependent on the strength of these people in the court, Your Majesty wants to arrange me as the prime minister, it is probably a bit difficult!"
Zhang Xun was obviously not very satisfied with the fact that he had only spent two days to find these people.
However, he also knew that he, Li Neng and all other Li Neng's confidants had never managed it in Chang'an City, so most of the high-ranking and powerful people in the court were really speechless.
Now the remaining two prime ministers are wearing pairs of pants. How do you ask Li to play?
"It's not that it's difficult, but it's impossible at all! But just do this, I'll find a way to do the rest!"
After Zhang Xun went out with his doubts, Li Qing also left Tai Chi Palace in a light and simple manner. His destination was the East Palace that he had just visited the previous day.
Now that Li Yan has ascended the throne, Li Yu has sent his teacher Li Mi away. Now he is preparing to quickly free up this place where only the prince is qualified to live. His Guangping Palace was still empty before, so it is quite easy to move back.
"Your Majesty? You have just ascended the throne today, and I heard that you are moving to Tai Chi Palace, why did you come here late at night?"
Li Yu was a little surprised by Li Yi's appearance. He had already made a defeat in the fight for the throne. Li Yi should have used his own place later.
Li Yu let Li Yan into his study and asked his wife to bring a lot of fruit and tea to Li Yan. Obviously, Li Yu, who no longer cared about so many things, has become much more relaxed in life and has begun to enjoy life. This makes Li Yan feel a little uncomfortable. This was originally his dream of life, but now Li Yu has lived it first.
"Oh, it's a bit tricky in the court now. I can't say that I have to let my elder brother come to the court to help me."
When Li Yu heard this, he frowned first, and then stretched out.
Indeed, Li Yu had promised Li Yan at the beginning. If his teacher did not continue to be in the court, he would have helped Li Yan in the court.
However, Li Yu never thought that his younger brother would let him appear in the court of the Tang Dynasty. After all, he was the previous position of the crown prince and would cause some discussion in the court.
"Even though Your Majesty said that although I am just a prince now, I am naturally obliged to do my best for the Tang Dynasty."
"I think my brother knows that in the court today, although Yuan Zai cannot be said to be a one-handed person, most officials with some right to speak are only followers. If I want to truly grasp the government affairs of the Tang Dynasty, I must first change this situation. The beginning of changing this matter is to arrange the candidates for the vacant Minister of Justice and Prime Minister..."
At this moment, Li Yi told Li Yu in detail his thoughts. At least in the short term, Li Yi must let Zhang Xun and Xu Yuan enter the court of the Tang Dynasty and take the main position.
Now, Xu Yuan has gone to Hebei Road to handle Fengyi and cannot come back within a few days, so Li Yan can only arrange Zhang Xun first.
If Zhang Xun was directly assigned a real official position of about a third rank, no one would dare to refute Li slapped the table, but if he directly entered the center of power, it would almost be an offensive to the interests of many people. Li Qing felt that at least Yu Yuanzai would not agree to such a thing.
"Zhang Xun... This man led his army to fight bloody battles before His Majesty went to Suiyang, otherwise Suiyang would not have been able to hold on. Moreover, this man was a Jinshi in the late Kaiyuan period, served as the prince's Tongshishe, Qinghe County Magistrate, Zhenyuan County Magistrate, and other official positions. He was also his Majesty's confidant. Any minister of the Ministry of Justice is fine, but this prime minister may have suffered many objections!"
"So before that, I had contacted some officials of the fourth and fifth ranks, but there was still a lack of people who could stand up to the public. This person is the elder brother!"
"But in this way, I have no official position in this Tang Dynasty. I'm afraid it's inappropriate to directly interfere with the prime minister's appointment?"
Li Yu always follows rules when doing things, but now Li Qing asks him to do it, obviously he is a bit unruly.
"So I have even thought about my brother's position. In the next court, I will first announce the appointment of my brother, Prince Shaobao, and then I will tell you about Zhang Xun."
"Prince's Young Guard?"
Li Yuxin said that Li Qing's move is really high. Although the Prince's Young Guard is called Prince's Young Guard, there is no regulation that there must be a prince to appoint him, right?
With Li Yu's identity and this official position, his speech in the court will be very important, and it is not surprising that Li Wu followed his brother's advice.
