Chapter 482 Li
Duke Leping was the Duke of County. The title was passed down from Li Chuyun. He did not add the founding of the country. He was to surrender the inheritance according to the system. However, after all, he was the son-in-law of the old emperor and married his favorite princess Liu Jia. So he used another method of re-emerging the title. After Li Jilong accumulated enough achievements and prestige, he was promoted to the Duke.
Li Jilong is over 100 years old and is at the peak of his life. This is true for his family and career. When he is majestic, his every move has the demeanor of a superior.
In the study, the bright lights reflected three figures. The heroic young man stood upright and served by him. He was Li Zhaoxian, the eldest son of Li Jilong and Liu Jia. He is now 18 years old and has graduated from the junior class of the military academy and was arranged by Li Jilong to train in the army.
Li Jilong was in the main seat, and he was full of energy and did not see any fatigue that he should have at dusk. Sitting next to him, there was a man with a positive face and a respectful attitude, his younger brother Li Jihe.
Li Jihe came to see him off this time, so naturally he did not come to see him off. Li Jilong was not among the ministers with the ranks. He had other important responsibilities. On the contrary, Li Jihe was accompanied by an officer of the Da Nei Army.
However, looking at his brother, Li Jihe smiled and said, "There is about to start. He has been busy with the affairs of the camp recently. I have not yet congratulated my elder brother. Go further. The chief minister of Yuhou in front of the palace!"
After the old emperor decided to go on a tour, he made another minor adjustment to the military and political affairs of the capital. Li Jilong officially promoted to Du Yuhou, the Du Yuhou position in front of the Palace. This is the most powerful position in the Palace Front Office. He is the real "Deputy Commander in front of the Palace Front Office". He is responsible for presiding over the daily work of the Palace Front Office. As long as it is the affairs of the Palace Front Office, Du Yuhou can intervene.
At this point, you only need to wait to enter the Privy Council and even go directly to the prefecture. With Li Jilong's identity, achievements and qualifications, you will follow the steps. As long as there is no mistake, the Political Affairs Hall will sooner or later have a place.
At the same time, the senior general of the capital who had a change in his position with Li Jilong was Cao Bin, the old Privy Councilor, who was arranged by the old emperor to take office as the commander of the inspection department, and was in charge of the 30,000 inspectors and horses around Xijing and around.
Unlike the Second Guards Department in front of the hall, the inspector's chief has real power. In any era, those who have the guns will have a strong back.
As for the court, Lu Duan, who served as the Minister of Personnel for almost ten years, finally moved away. He went further and served as the Minister of the Left Chief and Tongping Zhang. He worked with Zhao Pu to assist the prince in supervising the country and became the de facto deputy prime minister of the court.
This time, there was no matter about Zhao Kuangyi. He was still in Tokyo to coordinate the post-disaster recovery and reconstruction of Huanghuai provinces. Although he had already made up his mind and had a clear understanding of the way forward, after hearing the personnel changes in the Xijing court, Zhao Kuangyi almost broke the defense, and even Lu Duan climbed in front of him.
Involving such ministers, the changes in military and political positions are naturally widespread. After all, one carrot and one pit, the chain reaction caused by this adjustment almost formed a small political tide. The ebb and flow of the tide was also accompanied by people's coming and going, and they were proud and frustrated.
Of course, in addition to caring about the impact of this personnel adjustment on their vital interests, the powerful and wealthy people are more curious about the purpose of the old emperor before leaving, including Li Jilong, who was in the spotlight during this relocation.
Li Jilong has been thinking about this for several days, and finally came to only one conclusion, that is, the old emperor chose them, all of whom he trusted enough and harmless to him, and could keep him hundreds of miles away and still help him control the situation in the court.
Many people with political wisdom can see this, but the feelings brought to people by the old emperor's actions are also very different from those in the past.
For example, Li Jilong, apart from feeling the trust of the old emperor and the pride of the officials in front of the Xinzhang Hall, did not have any strangeness in his heart.
The source of this strange thing is still the old emperor, and the reason is not complicated. In Li Jilong's opinion, compared to the past, the old emperor is now a little unconfident. He is the only one who is the hero who is the country alone, and he has always been the only one who dares to resist him. Why do you need to do such "small moves"? The more you move, you will feel unconfidence.
Of course, this is just Li Jilong thinking about this issue from the perspective of a minister, and he cannot truly understand the ambivalence of an old emperor.
At the same time, even Li Jilong had such a suspicious and scrutinized look, which could reflect the psychological state of these noble ministers at the moment. Logically speaking, as the eldest son-in-law of the old emperor, he should not even have similar thoughts, just like in the past, but now
Everyone still respects the old emperor, and this awe gradually changes qualitatively. In front of the old emperor, it must be like walking on thin ice and serving carefully. However, once they leave their sight, they can really jump out of their thoughts and thoughts.
Li Jihe's congratulations suddenly sparked the gains of thinking over the past few days, but there were some things that were not convenient to discuss with the uncle and nephew present.
Looking at Li Jihe, Li Jilong's majestic face showed a smile as his brother, and waved his hand and sighed: "Compared to the chores and chores in the yamen, I prefer to lead troops directly to fight and guard one side. In the past few days, I miss the time when I led troops in the south of the desert."
As a qualified younger brother, Li Jihe can basically know his experience. He immediately agreed with his feelings and told his achievements in Monan: "The elder brother went out to the frontier six times and fought against Mobei six times, which is famous all over the world!"
"I feel guilty about some false reputation!" Li Jilong shook his head, looked serious and said with a little sadness: "I am still criticized for being a blessing for the princess, and I am really sorry for my father's reputation!"
Seeing this, Li Jihe immediately comforted him: "It's all jealous rumors. Brother doesn't have to worry about it. If you don't think about it, you will be like a villain. Your Majesty has always used his talents to evaluate his talents. The important duties of the Yuhou in front of the palace can be achieved by nepotism. Only you and Yang Yuanxian (Yang Yanzhao) will be valued."
If the old emperor heard this, he would probably be ashamed. Although the old emperor's employment policy of "only talent is to be employed" has been advocated for decades, in the specific practice, there are many examples of using people to be personal. Of course, perhaps in the eyes of Li Jihe and others, there are only the part of "virtue" and "talent".
After listening to his consolation, Li Jilong smiled. What kind of person is he? How could this brother need to relieve his emotions? Although Li Jihe is also a person in his thirties, in Li Jilong's eyes, he is still just a younger brother.
With a calm smile, Li Jilong looked at Li Jihe seriously and said in a deep voice: "You are here just right now, I happen to have something to explain to you!"
After pausing, Li Jilong slowly spoke: "Your Majesty has not traveled for nearly twenty years, and the Da Nei Army is also the same. It is important to know that permanent residence in the palace is completely different from patrol patrols, and you cannot tolerate negligence!
In recent years, there have been a lot of slackness in the Da Nei army, and a large number of noble children are filled with them. This is certainly His Majesty's love and support for the children of meritorious officials, but he will never allow his Imperial Guard to fall.
This tour shows many problems: who is better and worse, who is better and who is better and who is less, who is better and who is mediocre, and who is more or less reflects it.
While you are protecting your car, you should remember to regard this tour as a war and face the test of life and death on the battlefield, rather than traveling around, escaping the summer and watching flowers.
Correct attitude and meticulousness. Although you won’t make you stand out from the officers of the Okui, at least you won’t make any mistakes!
It is not easy for poor families to be young, and there is no room for mistakes for noble families.”
Li Jilong's explanation, although his tone was always calm, his attitude was a bit too solemn, which made Li Jihe feel a huge pressure. Facing his brother's serious gaze, Li Jihe calmed down and responded with a solemn expression: "Brother's teachings, I will definitely remember them in my heart and dare not slacken off!"
“So great!”
Li Jihe was twenty-nine years old at the time and served as commander in the Danei Army, a battalion-level unit, and only had about 600 people under his command. This position is not low at all, and the Danei Army is not something that ordinary people can enter.
The early Damen Army selected the most elite and loyal soldiers from the imperial guards, entered the imperial palace, and defended the emperor and the court. Later, it expanded to the national army, especially the most tested border garrison soldiers and meritorious soldiers, selected the best from the best, and in short, none of them could not be defeated.
However, there have been some changes later. As the second and third generations of noble children grew up, outstanding ones were also selected to be on duty in the imperial city. The Da Nei Army was the most crowded place. Now, it has evolved into an honor, and it can even be linked to the family's status and strength. Even later bureaucrats tried their best to send their descendants to the Da Nei Army.
In this way, the combat effectiveness of the Da Nei Army cannot always remain the top in the world like the Qianyou era. The abundant noble children are undoubtedly elites trained by aristocratic education, and the upward competition is particularly fierce, but similarly, some bad trends are also spreading. First of all, in terms of spiritual attributes, the Da Nei Army is far inferior to those in his early years.
After years of development, in addition to making meritorious contributions, military academy training, military selection, and inertial qualification assessment and promotion in the army, the three main channels for the progress of military soldiers, but in fact, the Da Nei Army is also one, and it is much better than the others.
The Da Nei Army is the real cradle of the officers of the Han Dynasty. One advantage is incomparable, that is, the attribute "the emperor's guards". For the feudal autocratic empire in the world, the halo of this attribute is too dazzling. It is the same as the "son of the emperor" who was the civil servants and imperial examinations. After all, while they were brainwashed by loyalty to the emperor, patriotism, they were also closer to the emperor, and were the most loyal defenders under the imperial power.
The Da Nei Army was organized by the 16th battalion of the Eighth Army, including the logistics of the company, with more than 10,000 people in the entire army, of which nearly 30% were from the children of powerful people. In such a "high-quality" team, Li Jihe, as one-sixteenth battalion commander, naturally has a great value. If he was sent to the place, he would have to start with the commander of the military and horses of a state in small quantities.
This time the old emperor went on a tour, it was naturally impossible for the Da Nei Army to follow him. Coincidentally, Li Jihe and his subordinates were all guarding him. This was both an honor and a test. It was a very serious matter that made Li Jilong unable to help but give him a special explanation.
In addition to Li Jihe, Li Jilong also has a brother, Li Jiheng. Li Chuyun was only five years old when he died. Like Li Jihe, he was raised by Li Jilong and his father. However, unlike his two brothers, he was on the civil service route. At the age of 26, he was in the county where he was in the pass, and he was in the county where he was in the pass. After a few years, he could be promoted to the right.
The mansion was busy, and Li Ji and his mansion had to make an explanation, and they had to go back to the camp to prepare to do so. Therefore, after a brief conversation between the two brothers, they hurriedly said goodbye.
Li Jilong couldn't feel comfortable either, so he asked Li Zhaoxian to go to the inner house. Although Li Zhaoxian was young, his calmness seemed almost carved out of the same mold as his father, and it was obviously the crystallization of the elite education of the powerful family.
Looking at the eldest son's serious expression that was a bit bitter and revengeful, Li Jilong couldn't help but smile and said, "How come he is so serious? You are a little depressed. Should I let you go with your mother and relax!"
Upon hearing this, Li Zhaoxian shook his head and said seriously: "I just entered the imperial guards, but everything is not familiar with it, and it still takes time to settle down. When staying in Beijing, you can not only accept your father's teachings at all times, but also be filial to your younger siblings, and your mother can travel with peace of mind."
After hearing the eldest son's answer, Li Jilong couldn't help but sigh that he had always been busy with official duties in the past, and the princess was cooking at home, including the education of his children.
As the eldest son, Li Zhaoxian received more attention, but also limited. However, from the perspective of inheriting the family and inheriting the industry, Li Zhaoxian is qualified. With this calm performance, few of his peers can match, and Li Jilong is naturally extremely satisfied.
