Chapter 202 Reminder
I don’t know whether it was because Chen Yi expressed his loyalty this time in front of Wu Zetian, or because his ability was recognized by Wu Zetian, or because his strong participation was required for the military reform, shortly after the New Year, he was awarded a new position and was appointed as the Chief Secretary of the Procuratorate, Rong Shao, the Minister of the Ministry of War of the Procuratorate. The original position of military weapon supervision was still retained, which was considered as the full text of the free life of the dad who served as a father!
The Ministry of War of the Tang Dynasty had two ministers, and the left and right ministers had a higher status than the right minister. However, the right minister who was also Chen Yi was mainly responsible for military reform in the next period. As the main assistant of Sirong Taichang Bo Jiang Ke, he participated in the military reform of the Tang Dynasty throughout the process. This honor was not available to the left minister! Once again, Chen Yi became a highly concerned figure in the court again!
At this age, he holds many important positions in the court. Although Chen Yi's ability is obvious to all, it is still amazing and many people cannot accept it! His age and qualifications are too shallow, and he will definitely be envied by people who hold such important positions in the court.
When Chen Yi knew that Wu Zetian was going to let him take another important position, he refused, but Wu Zetian refused, saying that the major event of military system reform must be involved in people she trusted very much, and now only Chen Yi adapted to take charge. After Wu Zetian's earnest persuasion, Chen Yi finally accepted it! But he also knew that from then on, he would stand on the cusp of the court battle and could not be left out. He is now a confidant of Wu Zetian, and the label on his face can no longer be changed. It is impossible to do everything with all the people!
Chen Yi had a headache with the intrigue that followed. He was a person who didn’t have much scheming. He liked to do practical things and talk straight. He didn’t like to play games of fighting wits and courage with others. He was the same before traveling through time. After traveling to the Tang Dynasty, he still did not change his mind even if he was in a high position. Of course, he also liked to pick up beauties and pushed down beauties on the bed. He even wanted to hunt all the beauty in the world! Doing practical things and talking straight, picking up beauties is what he is most willing to do, and playing scheming with others is what he dislikes the most! It’s just that although Chen Yi is a time traveler, he is not better than the people of this era in terms of mentality. Looking at the big bosses in the court, no one is a human being. Fighting with them, the "native people" who grew up slowly in the officialdom in this era, Chen Yi felt that he was under pressure!
But if you don’t like to do it, you have to do it, and you have to deal with people. Do you create heroes in the times? You have been experiencing experiences with the people in the court. Besides, he has been following Wu Zetian over the years and has heard and witnessed some. As long as you study hard in the future and pay more attention to interpersonal skills, you should be able to cope!
Because of Li Zhi's intentional or unintentional suppression, the open confrontation of Prince Li Hong made Wu Zetian feel much pressure. In addition to pushing Chen Yi further to the front desk, she also adjusted some other people's positions!
Helan Minzhi is now the Secretary-General of Lantai, who is the secretary-general before his official position was renamed, and a senior official in the court! At this time, Helan Minzhi was still in charge of other important positions, such as the Imperial College Principal Bachelor, and other scattered official positions. Helan Minzhi did not know much about military affairs, and with Chen Yi in charge of military affairs, Wu Zetian did not let Helan Minzhi intervene in military affairs. After he became the Grand Historian of Lantai, he ordered him to compile "The Spring and Autumn Annals of Thirty Kingdoms"! By compiling this historical book, Helan Minzhi recruited many influential scholars in this era. This handsome guy is good at interacting with people, and his talent is not bad. He is not a person like embroidered pillows, and soon a large group of people were won over by him.
This is exactly what Wu Zetian expected!
Wu Zetian ordered Chen Yi and Helan Minzhi more than once to ask them to recommend more talents to her. As long as they recommend them, she will give different degrees of appointments regardless of their identity. If the talent is outstanding, she will be given more people. Helan Minzhi recommended a lot of people, especially when compiling "The Spring and Autumn Period of the Thirty Kingdoms", and Chen Yi used some understanding of history to dig out some talented people who have not been discovered in advance, but who have a good reputation in history, such as Di Renjie, Zhang Jianzhi, Luo Binwang, Zhang Shuo, He Zhizhang and others.
Because they know the names of these people and have already appeared on the historical stage, they are just supporting roles, and Chen Yi is destined to show their feelings soon!
----------
On this day, a guest came to Chen Yi's mansion. He was no one else, but a strange man who Chen Yi had known for a long time, Yan Liben, a master of painting! At this time, Yan Liben had been promoted to the right prime minister and was in the Political Affairs Hall. Although his position was changing, Yan Dashen's temper had not changed at all. He still ignored everyone as before, unless this was the person he was interested in!
Chen Yi can be regarded as the person who is interested in him now, and he is very interested!
Both of them were in high positions in the court, but their habits when they were together still remained unchanged. After the necessary etiquette, they still had casual conversations! However, Yan Li had a special purpose today, so after bragging for a while, he hinted to Chen Yi a few words. Chen Yi understood and immediately invited Yan Liben to the study room to talk to the best Pope in the name of looking at a painting. Chen Yi's study room is a forbidden area in the mansion. In addition to the place where there are a lot of valuable things, including calligraphy, painting and culture, this place is also a place where Chen Yi meets important guests. Generally, the servants in the mansion dare not come here casually. Every time Chen Yi discusses confidential matters with others, he is in the study room!
As soon as he sat down, Chen Yi asked directly: "I wonder if Yan Xiang is here today, what should I give me advice?"
Yan Liben has a bad face all day long, and many people keep it away from him, but he is indeed good at abilities and is upright. He is highly praised by Emperor Li Zhi and Empress Wu Zetian. He was promoted all the way because he rarely offended people at a deep level. He followed his brother Yan Lide and served as the chief minister. The two brothers have one common nature, that is, they don’t like red tape and talk about things directly. Therefore, Chen Yi was not polite and asked directly!
"Ziying, you are very impressed by your talent. You are in a high position at a young age, which is amazing!" Yan Liben immediately changed the subject and said very seriously: "It's just that you are so quick to promote, not only to arouse a lot of jealousy, but I heard that some people want to deal with you!"
"Oh?!" Chen Yi's heart skipped a beat and he hurriedly asked: "Who is Yan Xiang referring to?"
Yan Liben did not say it explicitly, but dipped his hand in tea, wrote the word "dong" on the table, then pulled his mouth and smiled, lowered his voice and said, "I guess you should know what's going on, right?"
As soon as he saw the word "Tong" written by Yan Liben, Chen Yi immediately understood what was going on. What Yan Liben refers to must be Li Hong, who is in the Eastern Palace! Li Hong wanted to win him over the past few years but could not. He has been valued by Wu Zetian and can enter and exit the palace at will, and was promoted like a rocket, which must have made the prince Li Hong, who felt the threat of Wu Zetian. Moreover, Chen Yi immediately thought that this should not be Li Hong's idea alone, and it may be that Li Zhi's support behind it. Li Zhi had long been unhappy about him, and Chen Yi was not at all vague about this. It can be said that Li Zhi could even feel or guess that there was a more complicated relationship behind the interests between him and Wu Zetian, and it was not necessarily possible that this emperor who was unable to do anything.
Many people see the changes in Wu Zetian's mood. They are all of this age and are always a little sensitive to this. Li Zhi is not a fool. He will definitely notice something strange from some of Wu Zetian's different behaviors from the past. If Li Zhi had such a guess, he would definitely think about Chen Yi, the person Wu Zetian often summoned!
Thinking of this, Chen Yi felt a little cold. He also wanted to know where Yan Liben found out from where Li Hong wanted to deal with him. He wanted to know more about how Li Hong wanted to deal with him, so he quickly asked: "Yan Xiang, in the next step, he has always been committed to the public and discipline, worked diligently, and made suggestions for the court. I really didn't expect that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would deal with me. I also asked Yan Xiang to inform him of the relevant situation. I am very grateful!"
"I'm very sorry, I don't know much!" Yan Liben looked at Chen Yi and said almost word by word: "I just want to remind you that even if you can enter and exit the palace casually, you should pay attention to other people's gazes. Many things have changed after being said by the people. You must understand the principle that three people become tigers!"
"Ah?!" Chen Yi was shocked and looked at Yan Liben in disbelief. He was still worried about this just now, but he didn't expect Yan Liben to point it out implicitly! However, although he was surprised, he immediately reacted and gave a solemn salute to Yan Liben, "Thank you for your advice, I understand!"
"Just understand!" Yan Liben was very happy to see Chen Yi immediately understand what he said, but he didn't say anything else. You can't say too much about such things. If you say it too clearly, it will not only embarrass people, but also have unexpected consequences, so you can stop when you click!
In the past two years, Yan Liben's illness has been cured by Chen Yi's wonderful hands. One or two times is a very dangerous disease. Yan Liben is over 60 years old and his health is getting worse day by day. He almost took his life due to serious illness. Fortunately, Chen Yi's wonderful hands were used to rescue him and treated with some new drugs, so he was very grateful for Chen Yi's favor for saving him. Otherwise, he would not come to the door today and tell Chen Yi the news he accidentally found. Naturally, he did not believe that there was an inconsistency between Chen Yi and Wu Zetian. He thought it was just because some people were jealous of Chen Yi's heavy use, so he maliciously fabricated these slanderous words to slander!
He could not tolerate this situation and did not want Chen Yi, a friend who was in harmony with him, to be slandered and even lost everything, so he came to the door today to say it!
