Political Affairs Hall.
Li Shimin and Du Ruhui sat on the couch and drank. The table on the couch was filled with food and wine.
"Keming, it's been a long time since we've sat down together to eat and drink.”
Putting down his wine cup, Li Shiming's face revealed a rare look of satisfaction. He took the initiative to pick up the wine pot and pour wine for Du Ruhui.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Du Ruhui smiled and raised his wine glass." Yes, it's been a long time since I've had such a relaxing drink with Your Majesty."”
"Did Your Majesty just mention Qin Chuan?"
"Qin Chuan?"
Li Shi Min frowned and said,""Yes, I learned about your illness from that kid."
"How does Your Majesty know Qin Chuan?"
Du Ruhui asked doubtfully.
"How did Qin Chuan find out about this lowly official's illness? I have never mentioned this illness to my family, let alone the officials in the court.”
Li Shimin smiled,"Speaking of which, it's quite a coincidence. On the day of the imperial examinations, Zhen came out of the palace in plain clothes and met this kid."
Li Shimin didn't hide anything and told Du Ruhui about their encounter.
He didn't want to hide anything from Du Ruhui, nor did he need to be afraid of anything.
As his trusted advisor, Du Ruhui was a participant in everything he had experienced along the way.
Du Ruhui's eyes lit up when he heard Qin Chuan's analysis of the Black Tortoise Sect.
"Did Qin Chuan really say that about the incident at the Black Tortoise Sect?”
The most classic coup in history, an outstanding politician and military strategist!
This was the first time he had heard someone analyze the changes in Black Tortoise Sect from this perspective!
And Qin Chuan's analysis of the Black Tortoise Sect's change was not only based on the Black Tortoise Sect's change, but also from the entire Imperial Family's struggle during the Wude Era. He was not like some people who were partial and short-sighted.
"I heard it with my own ears. How can it be fake?”
"This person is unique and comprehensive. It's extremely rare!”
Du Ruhui sighed.
"Listen to me in detail about what happened later."
Regardless of whether it was Qin Chuan's wit in finding the shop owner to look at the rankings, his wisdom in dealing with Pei Ji, or his willingness to die for the sake of the common people of China, all of them made Du Ruhui sigh endlessly.
Puchi!
Du Ruhui could not help but laugh." Your Majesty, Qin Chuan really wants you to marry eight or ten princesses to him!？”
"To think that this kid can say that!"
"That's because he doesn't know my identity. If he really said that to me, I would definitely skin that kid alive!”
Li Shi Min laughed and scolded Qin Chuan, but his eyes were filled with unconcealable fondness.
"Your Majesty, are you really going to marry the princess to him?" Du Ruhui asked with a smile.”
Li Shiming didn't know whether to laugh or cry." Otherwise, if I don't marry the princess to him, then I'll be a bad ruler in front of that kid!"”
"Keming, you don't know how eloquent that kid is! Whether it's in the open or in the dark, Yin or Yang, I'll give you all kinds of sarcasm. I didn't give that kid a good beating back then!”
"But to be honest, Zhen really likes that kid a little. I really want to marry a princess to him.”
Li Shi Min leaned against the couch and raised his wine glass as he said with a smile.
Qin Chuan was young and had both character, looks, and talent. He was also close to him and had a congenial spirit. How could he not like him?
"And then there's your body."
Li Shi Min reminded him after he finished talking about his relationship with Qin Chuan.
"Keming, if that kid asks you about Li Jun, you have to cover for me and don't reveal your identity.”
"Oh? His Majesty still planned to continue hiding it from Qin Chuan?”
Du Ruhui was puzzled.
Li Shi Min waved his hand," It's impossible to hide it. That kid is smart and quick-witted. He will meet me sooner or later."”
"It's just that I can let him know my identity one day later.”
Li Shi Min smiled. He liked the current situation where there was no difference between monarch and minister, no difference in status, and he could freely interact with Qin Chuan. They could talk about anything from north to south.
Even though he knew that it was impossible to keep it a secret from Qin Chuan, Qin Chuan would eventually discover his identity.
But at least before that, he wasn't a loner who was lonely at the top.
"Keming, what do you think of Qin Chuan's proposal on medicine?”
"This matter is very feasible."
Du Ruhui praised him, but he also gave his opinion.
"It's just that this matter has a lot to do with it. It's not something that can be done overnight if we want to promote medicine nationwide.”
"Furthermore, the status of the doctors is low. If you raise your status rashly, I'm afraid that you won't be able to match your position. It will cause turmoil in the court.”
"This humble subject believes that we can first gather the physicians to prepare for the war against the Turks. If the physicians truly make great contributions during the war against the Turks, it won't be too late to reward them according to their merits and promote them.”
"Keming's words are deeply in my heart."
Li Shi Min nodded and said.
"How do you think we should arrange for Qin Chuan? Should we arrange for him to be in the Ministry of Personnel or the Ministry of War?”
"I think it would be more appropriate to arrange for the Ministry of Personnel.”
"Why?"
Du Ruhui replied," He was the one who proposed the change in the administration of officials. He knows better than us court officials how to change the administration of officials and to what extent."”
"Originally, according to this lowly official's plan, Qin Chuan would be assigned to the Ministry of Official Personnel Affairs, and he would be in charge of the administrative system.”
Li Shimin nodded slightly," Keming, if you step down, who do you think is more suitable to take over the position of Minister of Personnel?”
Du Ruhui cautiously cupped his hands." Your Majesty, even the third-grade officials are conferred by Your Majesty. How dare I overstep my authority!”
Li Shimin smiled and waved his hand." You are the Minister of Personnel. It is your duty to recommend talents for the country. How about this? You answer my questions. It is not against the rules, right?"”
"How is Xuan Yin?"
"Brother Xuanyin is just and upright, you can work in the Ministry of Civil Affairs, but Brother Xuanyin has just taken up his post as the Minister of Civil Affairs, so he doesn't have enough prestige to take on the role of the Ministry of Civil Affairs.”
"What about Xuan Ling?"
"Brother Xuanling has been managing the country for a long time and can also serve in the Ministry of Personnel. However, Brother Xuanling merged with the government last year and dismissed more than 2,000 officials.”
Li Shi Min nodded slowly, his brows furrowed." Then in your opinion, who should I appoint as the Minister of Personnel?”
"I recommend Du Ruhui to be the Minister of Personnel!”
Li Shimin was stunned." Keming, you!”
"Your Majesty, this humble subject is not greedy for power. This humble subject is also a person who is afraid of death. If Your Majesty does not believe this humble subject, you can only give this humble subject a title in the Ministry of Personnel.”
"Only important officials in the court can preside over the reform of the official system. Someone needs to protect Qin Chuan from behind. Brother Xuanling is too swift and decisive. Once he starts, it's difficult to turn back.”
"This lowly official is the Minister of Personnel, so this lowly official is the most suitable person to preside over the reform of the official administration and protect Qin Chuan!”
"Your Majesty, please appoint me as the Minister of Personnel!”
Du Ruhui sincerely bowed to Li Shimin.
Staring blankly at Du Ruhui, Li Shimin was in a daze for a long time, unable to calm down.
What did Li Shi Min do to meet such a loyal minister who was willing to die for him!
He quickly went forward to help Du Ruhui up." Keming, get up first. I understand your intentions, but whether you can take up the post or not is not up to me. You have to ask Deputy Zhen."
