Datang: Only by resisting the decree can we become stronger

Hearing the Taishanghuang's words, everyone around took a breath of air.

And Li Qiu was also confused.

Not sure why.

Among them, only Li Shimin and the Supreme Emperor understood what was going on.

Afterwards, Li Shimin took a deep breath.

"What the Supreme Emperor said is true."

"Li Qiu has made great contributions to my Great Tang."

"This time, they have repeatedly wiped out the Turks, conquered the Liaoxi Corridor, and conquered Huaiyuan City, the gateway to the entire Liaodong."

"I, and the imperial court's reward for Li Qiu is too low."

"How about this, I will appoint you as Shangshu Zuocheng, the fourth rank, and serve under Fang Xuanling's command."

"how do you feel?"

Hearing Li Shimin's words, the officials present couldn't help being shocked.

Shangshu Province because Li Shimin once served as Shangshu Ling.

Therefore, during the Zhenguan period, because of avoiding taboos, the official post of Shangshuling was not established.

Zuo Pushe and You Pushe were changed to be the prime ministers of Shangshu Province.

Under Zuo Pushe and You Pushe, there are Shangshu Zuocheng and Shangshu Youcheng.

The assistant prime minister governs the entire Shangshu Province.

This Shangshu Province, which is in charge of the six departments, can be said to be the core of the entire Datang government affairs system.

The importance cannot be overstated.

And the official position of Shangshu Zuocheng that Li Shimin wanted to arrange for Li Qiu also had a lot of power in his hands.

Once such an important official position is taken by Li Qiu, the future will be difficult for these officials.

Just now, after agreeing to the Supreme Emperor's request, Li Shimin had already started to plan secretly in his heart.

What kind of official position should be granted to Li Qiu, so that the Supreme Emperor can be satisfied and be able to explain the past.

However, at this moment, Li Shimin's expectation was greatly exceeded.

For the question of "is it satisfactory" that he asked, Li Qiu at this time seemed to be stupid.

Don't say yes, don't say no.

It's just like a piece of wood, standing there in a daze.

Actually, it wasn't that Li Qiu didn't want to answer.

It's just because the Supreme Emperor asked himself so before, after not getting his clear instructions.

Don't talk, don't have superfluous actions.

Right now he is standing there pretending to be stupid, that's what he means.

As for the Supreme Emperor, he even sat on the chariot with his head raised slightly, looking at the sky.

Has been silent, without saying a word, obviously expressing his dissatisfaction.

After a few seconds of silence, Li Shimin couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Before, he felt that it was difficult to answer the official position that the Supreme Emperor wanted today.

At this moment, it is indeed so.

"cough……"

"I thought about it for a while, and the position of the Minister Zuo Cheng is quite special."

"It is also related to the operation of the entire Shangshu Province."

"You don't have experience, and you may not be able to do well if you take over at once."

"Then I will appoint you as the Minister of Honghe Temple, from the third rank, in charge of foreign guests, court gatherings and festivals."

Hearing this, the surrounding officials were relieved.

Although this Zhengqing of Honglu Temple is half a rank higher than Shangshu Zuocheng in terms of rank.

But in terms of power and practical significance in his hands, it is far inferior to Shangshu Zuocheng.

Even if they thought so, the Supreme Emperor would definitely not want to do it.

So next, Li Qiu stood there like a wooden stake.

The Supreme Emperor remained silent.

Seeing this, Li Shimin felt helpless and made up his mind to cut off a piece of meat.

"Right now, Hou Junji and Li Jing are busy with military affairs."

"The war in the Western Regions may not end within a year or two."

"It's not a problem that the post of Minister of the Ministry of War has been vacant."

"It's up to you to do it."

"Exactly, you are good at fighting, but not good at strategy."

"This time will also allow you to take the opportunity to learn more and hone it."

"The positions of these six ministers are all very important, and they affect the whole body."

"It's far from being comparable to those ordinary jobs."

Each of the six Shangshu is indeed extremely important.

This Minister of the Ministry of War is equivalent to the Minister of Defense of later generations.

If Li Qiu did it, it would further enhance his prestige and status in the army.

For Li Qiu's future, it also has a very important meaning and role.

So while saying these words, Li Shimin looked at Li Qiu with a fierce and murderous look.

It probably means: I have given you all the ministers of the Ministry of War, and I have reached my bottom line.

If you kid dare to pretend to be stupid with me again, let's see how I deal with you!

Facing Li Shimin's naked, threatening and warning eyes.

Li Qiu also felt a little panicked.

At the same time, even he himself felt that if the Supreme Emperor wanted an official for himself.

The position of Minister of the Ministry of War is really extraordinary.

Even Qin Qiong, Yuchi Jingde, Cheng Yaojin, Li Shiji, Duan Zhixuan and other meritorious generals failed to achieve the position of minister of the Ministry of War.

With Li Qiu's age and seniority, the appointment and promotion are beyond the standard.

However, no matter how sharp Li Shimin's gaze was, Li Qiu didn't dare to move, let alone make a sound.

He could only bite the bullet and wait for the signal from the Supreme Emperor.

After all, the Supreme Emperor asked himself to do such a thing so seriously, Li Qiu didn't want to disappoint the Supreme Emperor.

Although Li Qiu still doesn't know the specific inside story.

But at this moment, he could already come up with a rough idea.

Knowing that the Supreme Emperor got such an opportunity was very difficult, and he paid a very high price.

Looking at the scene performed by Li Shimin, Li Qiu, and the Supreme Emperor at this time, the surrounding officials have already begun to guess what it is.

Although they were very upset that Li Qiu was serving as Minister of the Ministry of War at such an age.

But that was after all a matter for their generals and the army.

It has little to do with civil servants.

As time goes by a little bit.

Seeing the silence of the Supreme Emperor in front of him, and Li Qiu's pretending to be stupid, Li Shimin's heart also faintly became angry.

If other people are so ignorant of current affairs, they will challenge their own bottom line one after another.

Li Shimin lost his temper a long time ago and ran away.

but……

Of the two in front of me, one is my father, and the other is my son.

As a son of man, as a father, so what if he gets angry again? !

Therefore, Li Shimin also surged with anger, and simply gave his ultimate quotation with the maximum amount...

Chapter 703

The post of Shangshu Youpushe has been vacant since the auxiliary machine left the post. "

"I have also been hesitating, who to choose to replace me."

"My Prime Minister of the Tang Dynasty, you should be satisfied with this, right?"

When Li Shimin said this, everyone present was dumbfounded.

A look of disbelief.

Your Majesty actually wants this Li Qiulai to be Shangshu Youpushe, the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty? ?

He is a boy in his early 20s, how can he come to such a high position?

If they hadn't seen and heard it with their own eyes, they would never believe that it was true!

On the other side, after hearing that Li Shimin actually vomited out the position of Shangshu Youpushe.

It also greatly exceeded the expectations of the Supreme Emperor.

Ever since, he gave Li Qiu an "angry" look.

"Your Majesty has promised you to be the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty."

"Don't you hurry up and thank you?!"

Finally, Li Qiu waited for the Supreme Emperor's order.

Immediately afterwards, as if he had come alive, he knelt down and kowtowed for the emperor's grace.

Seeing him like this, Li Shimin shook his sleeves angrily.

"I am the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty, and not just anyone can do it."

"In the future, you have to work harder and work harder."

"If you don't do well, I can also get rid of you."

"It's cold at night, why don't you quickly carry the emperor's chariot and send him back to his bedroom?"

Hearing Li Shimin's words, Li Qiu hastily agreed.

But it takes two people to carry the chariot.

Those princes before were deflated by the Supreme Emperor.

Naturally, he refused to help at this moment.

And those civil servants.

Right now Li Qiu is suddenly on the rise and has become the Prime Minister of the Tang Dynasty.

They are still in a state of incomparable absurdity and disbelief at the moment.

There is no place to vent the dissatisfaction and anger in his heart.

Naturally, he refused to come and help.

The military generals present, although they wanted to come over to help.

But those who can participate in this occasion are all Li Qiu's elders.
