Looking at Li Shiming's back, Concubine Yang felt very happy.
Even though she still couldn't sleep with him tonight.
However, her son Li Ke did not have to go to Shu after all. This was the most joyous thing.
Concubine Yang approached the young Li Ke and stroked his head." Ke 'er, His Majesty the Emperor treats us very well.
Now, you don't have to go to Yizhou in Shu, and you've even become the Minister of War.
I will naturally serve Your Majesty well. Although you are stupid, you should still do everything yourself.
You might not be able to achieve great results, but you can do hard work.”
Li Ke was speechless.
Consort mother, I just want to be a salted fish.
You must provoke Li Er. I don't know what's wrong with Li Er, but he actually wants me to be the Minister of War.
It was said that the Minister of War had to go to the yamen at six in the morning every day. On days when there was an early court session, he had to report to Taiji Palace at three in the morning.
Sigh! How could this be a human's life!
Li Ke was very annoyed!
……
Li Ke's words were still echoing in Li Shiming's mind.
The more Li Ke ridiculed him, the happier Li Shiming became.
Li Shi Min had a feeling that he had Li Ke in his grasp.
He returned to the Dew Palace.
Li Shimin immediately summoned Hou Junji and Li Junxian.
"Hou Junji, immediately send someone to the Turks to find out what the current climate is like.
He had to be fast! Immediately report to me when you have news! There's no need to go through your Bureau of Military Personnel."
Li Shi Min sat in front of the table, full of momentum, exuding the aura of an emperor.
"Here!"
Hou Junji was rather surprised. He didn't know why the Emperor was suddenly so concerned about the Turkic climate.
However, since it was the Emperor who raised the question, as a subject, he would just do as he was told.
"Oh right, let the King of Shu Li Ke hold the post of Minister of War.
Tomorrow, he will report to the Ministry of War yamen. At that time, can you give him a good introduction to the Ministry of War?”Li Shi Min said again!
"Huh?"
Hou Junji was stunned!
Ever since the position of Minister of War was vacated, he had always yearned for it!
Hou Junji had been very close to the Crown Prince, Li Chengqian, and the Duke of Qi, Zhangsun Wuji!
Li Chengqian and Zhangsun Wuji had also been helping him with the operation. Furthermore, they had made it clear that the position of Minister of War would definitely be his!
Hou Junji also felt that the position of Minister of War was in his hands.
After all, only famous generals like Yuchi Gong, Qin Qiong, and Li Jing could take up this position.
However, these famous generals were either injured or had too many things to do in the military camp.
He couldn't even become the Minister of War!
Thus, the most suitable candidate was Hou Junji!
But Hou Junji had never expected this!
What he originally thought was in his bag was actually snatched away by a thirteen-year-old youth!
Moreover, it was the King of Shu, Li Ke, who had a bad reputation in the court!
Hou Junji immediately stepped forward and was about to speak."This…Your Majesty, I think…"
"Alright! Go down and do your work!" Li Shiming waved his hand, ordering Hou Junji to scram!
Hiss!
Hou Junji gritted his teeth helplessly.
They could only retreat!
When he retreated, he was still quite indignant!
He was really angry in his heart!
Li Junxian was equally surprised. He didn't know what the King of Shu had done to make the Emperor view him with such importance.
Li Shimin turned to Li Junxian.
"Li Junxian, make a trip to the east of the river for me! Let's go and see if there's a drought on Hedong Road.”
Great drought?
Li Junxian was a bit dazed!
If there was a drought in any place, it would definitely be reported to the Imperial Court immediately! Why would he need to make a trip personally?
Could it be that the local officials deliberately suppressed the news of the drought?
Li Junxian didn't dare to make wild guesses and immediately clasped his hands in agreement!
……
The next day!
The news of the King of Shu, Li Ke, concurrently serving as Minister of War spread among the officials of the Great Tang!
This matter could be big or small.
The second year of Zhenguan was the time when Li Shimin was trying his best to establish his own court. Therefore, many of the officials of the three provinces and six ministries were replaced by Li Shimin. The original trusted aides of Li Yuan were removed and replaced by Li Shimin's trusted aides!
Therefore, at this time, the officials of the three provinces and six ministries were very important!
The officials also attached great importance to this!
Furthermore! Li Ke was a prince, and the power of a prince was already very great.
In principle, he could not be the main official position of the three provinces and six ministries.
Of course, if one's contribution was outstanding, one could also take on the role!
In the Eastern Palace!
Crown Prince Li Chengqian looked at his uncle Zhangsun Wuji and was very unhappy.
"Uncle, who does Li Ke think he is? He can actually become the Minister of War!”
Next to Zhangsun Wuji sat the Minister of War, Hou Junji.
Hou Junji was even more furious than he had been in Dew Palace the night before!
"Duke Qi, you have to help me!
Have I not paid enough for the Great Tang?
Back at the Black Tortoise Sect, I stood firmly on the side of the current Emperor.
I'm also the current Duke of the country. How can I be worse than Li Ke, that brat who's still wet behind his ears?”Hou Junji's beard twitched in anger.
Zhangsun Wuji waved his hand slightly, his sharp eyes flashing with a malicious light.
"Last night, His Majesty the Emperor went to Concubine Yang's chambers.
Presumably, that witch Concubine Yang had given the Emperor some bewitching potion!
However, these were all small matters.
One is a princess of the previous dynasty, and the other is a mediocre prince. Can these two people still disrupt the political situation of the Great Tang?
How ridiculous!
Hou Junji, don't be angry. This old man will go to Dew Palace right now and seek justice for you!
Last night, His Majesty was bewitched by Concubine Yang. He should have woken up by now!”
After Zhangsun Wuji finished speaking, he stood up confidently.
Waving his sleeves, he was about to head towards the Dew Palace.
Li Chengqian and Hou Junji immediately rose to their feet. Seeing Zhangsun Wuji so calm, they knew that this matter was settled! Li Ke was a clown after all, a mediocre person who could not enter their eyes!
