Chapter 303 A Difficult Beginning

Zhang Xun was of course prepared for these difficulties. He was already prepared to die in battle when he was in Suiyang. It was Li's arrival that gave him and Xu Yuan and others the opportunity to make contributions to the Tang Dynasty again.

In fact, Li Qing has been given many times when he can reach the current level. In the end, Li Qing is also for the Tang Dynasty. In this case, he really didn't take these difficulties faced by Zhang Xun in the court. You must know that Zhang Xun was originally a Jinshi, and he is not inferior to anyone in terms of his goodness in his head.

For Li Neng, he could finally breathe a sigh of relief with Zhang Xun, the person who was recommended to the position of prime minister.

After all, if Zhang Xun was not there, Li Qing felt that he was like a blind man in the court of the Tang Dynasty. Things in the court might have happened to him, but he didn't know.

Now, Li Neng believes that Zhang Xun knows how to control the big and let go of the small, and he will start to rectify the Tang Dynasty's court bit by bit from now on.

Li Neng did not expect that everyone in the court would be completely loyal to himself and to the Tang Dynasty. Li Neng still understood the truth that water was clear and there was no fish. The result he wanted was nothing more than that the people in the court could at least make the right choice.

After arranging Zhang Xun, it was obvious that everything would be fine for Li Qing. It was easy to say the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty, but it was still quite difficult to do in this special historical stage.

Because An Lushan's rebellion lasted for a long time, although it did not last for eight years as mentioned in the history of previous life, it has been several years. Moreover, Li Qing knew that as long as Shi Siming and the Yiluo Rivers he brought were not destroyed by the Tang Dynasty, An Lushan's rebellion could not be considered. This sharp knife hidden in the dark would definitely stare at the Tang Dynasty at all times and would give the Tang Dynasty a fatal blow when it was most difficult.

In addition, An Lushan's rebellion gave the far-reaching influence brought by almost all the Tang people outside the Jianghuai River. Almost the entire north was passed by the rebels, and in some places it even passed by more than once.

Wherever the rebels passed, it was a bit more serious that the suffering of living beings was, but at least the surplus food in the people's homes could not be preserved. In this era, it was not that the people were rich, but that was not short of food or clothing? So after this rebellion, famine was first and foremost a big problem.

During the years Li Heng reign, he really wanted to know the sufferings of the people. However, the Tang Dynasty was beaten by the surrounding tribes, and his attention was almost all focused on whether the Tang Dynasty could beat others. He didn't pay much attention to internal affairs.

In addition, Yuan Zai and others were almost fooling around in the court, which made Li Heng unable to see clearly what the Tang Dynasty was like now.

But Li Heng couldn't see clearly, but Li Qing saw clearly little by little. There were too many people's homes passing by when he fought in the south and north. If you want to know whether the officials below were fooling him, Li Qing had a hundred ways.

It would be great to be able to make the Tang Dynasty territory to the European continent, but Li Qing knew that at least it was not the time to think about those things.

At this stage, he only has two tasks, that is, to improve the lives of the people and make the Tang Dynasty clear, and these two points are completely complementary.

Li Yi currently does not have many confidants, and Zhang Xun and Chen Zhibao have been arranged by him to a position that suits them.

With all the plans, Li Yan was left with Nan Jiyun, and Xu Yuan and Lei Wanchun could arrange it. Before he gained more confidants in the court, Li Yan knew that he had to be very cautious in his position.

For the official positions of these three people, Li Qing almost locked himself in the study of Tai Chi Palace for a whole day.

Nan Jiyun was a general who could stand alone. After repeated attempts, Li Siwei decided to hand over the Hebei Road, which could be called his own, to Nan Jiyun.

Although Yan Zhenqing, who is now the governor of Hebei Dao, is also a talented person, in Li Qing's opinion, a person like him is still suitable for development in the court, which is somewhat similar to Liu Yan.

Hebei Road involves the communication between the two tribes of Tongluo and Pugu tribes, and has to defend against possible movements of the Uighurs. In addition, Shi Siming must not know where he was hiding in the north. He needs a commander to be stationed with a team of elite soldiers. In Li Yan's opinion, this person can only be Nan Jiyun.

As for the current Jiedushi in various important towns of the Tang Dynasty, at least Guo Ziyi and Li Guangbi are still in charge. Moreover, the relationship between Nanzhao and the Tang Dynasty is unbreakable for the time being, so Li Neng is not in a hurry to do things in the south.

As for Lei Wanchun, although he was also a trainer, Li Neng found that his personality was always lacking a little domineering, so Li Neng decided to leave him in the court. With Lei Wanchun's ability, there was nothing suitable for him except the Ministry of War.

Finally, Xu Yuan went to Hebei Road to help Li Yan solve the family affairs. According to Li Yan's prediction, there was another ten or eight days, and he would be almost back. Li Yan had already thought about the responsibilities he gave him.

If you want to renew the Tang Dynasty, what you need most is naturally to seize the imperial examination. With Xu Yuan's ability and temperament, Li Yan had already thought about giving the imperial examination matter to Xu Yuan to arrest him.

However, since the Kaiyuan period, the imperial examinations in the Tang Dynasty have been under the responsibility of the Gongyuan, which is directly under the Ministry of Rites, so the position Li Qing temporarily arranged for Xu Yuan was a minister of the Ministry of Rites who was not visible and did not show any water.

The position of Minister of Rites is a thousand miles apart from Zhang Xun, but in Li Qing's view, this is just a difference reflected in the eyes of officials in the court. In his eyes, the importance of these two positions is not much different, and one is in the light and the other is in the dark, which can cooperate with each other.

Furthermore, Han Zemu, the Minister of Rites, has almost been considered a team leader, and is Li Qing's people. If Xu Yuan is placed in the Ministry of Rites, all his behaviors will almost never be controlled by others, which will provide Li Qing with great convenience in selecting and employing people in the imperial examination.

Although everything is difficult at the beginning, Li Neng believes that if these people all reach the position they arranged for them and adapt to this position, the court of the Tang Dynasty will begin to quickly become formal.

Once that time comes, I will be able to take some time to do some of the things I owe, such as the thing he once promised his grandfather Li Longji.
