Chapter 247 Li Si: Why do you want more face?

Jiang Bai gave detailed answers to some of Wu Shiluo's questions.

The first is the arrangement for questioning the Wuzhi people.

Second only to Jiuqing, Wu Shiluo really has a good command of Taipusi. She is extremely good at raising horses. It can be said that the actual work of Taipusi is exactly her order. Others follow it without questioning at all. Qualifications.

This made Wu Shiluo very satisfied, and she also knew that this was a symbol of power.

So if Xingtaipu Temple was handed over to the Wushi clan again, she knew all too well what disastrous consequences it would have.

That would quickly make Wushi a powerful figure in the court, and the emperor would definitely target him.
For this reason, Wu Shiluo suggested that someone else should be the main official of Xingtaipu Temple.

"The Wushi people don't understand so much culture. Letting them control a yamen that also has the power to lead troops is fatal. It will cause the Wushi to quickly become corrupted and degenerate in the future." Wushi Luo believed.

Jiang Bai gave her an idea.

"Technical officials and administrative officials are separated," Jiang Bai said. "For example, this Xingtaipu Temple can set up a doctor to control military power. This is necessary. Without military power, you can't raise a large number of horses. And in the daily life of the government office In terms of work, people who know how to raise horses but prefer to be officials can be employed, while technical officials enjoy the same treatment as officials and have the right to speak in technical aspects, but are not responsible for administrative matters."

Wu Shiluo agreed with this suggestion.

Another problem is that it is not good for Wushi to be limited to Anding County.

"It's too easy for local tycoons to form. My suggestion is to let them take the money and go out on their own." Wu Shiluo said tactfully.

Jiang Bai thought for a while and asked her to list most of the tribesmen. Those who were capable could form a transportation team.

Jiang Bai dragged over a four-wheeled cart with a hood made of wood, which looked a bit like a caravan in later America.

This kind of vehicle can transport thousands or even tens of thousands of kilograms of grain at a time.

"I will provide you with a thousand caravans. You can transport supplies all over the world and become a mobile wholesaler of bulk daily necessities." Jiang Bai said, "In addition, those who are brave can also go to the headquarters of King Youxian of the Xiongnu for detailed information. You can sell them salt and iron pots."

Wu Shiluo's pretty face turned slightly red, this was to give her face.

How could Wushi not trade with the Huns?

"That's okay." Wu Shiluo asked Jiang Bai to help her write a memorial to the administrative and technical officials of Taipu Temple, and at the same time turn this suggestion into an article.

Jiang Bai was done with a wave of his hand.

Wu Shiluo took it to see the emperor.

When Ying Zheng heard that it was Taifu's suggestion, he didn't think about approving it first.

Then I looked at the contents and realized that this was not just a plan for Xingtaipu Temple.

"Administrative affairs and technical staff must be integrated with each other. Administrative staff cannot be ignorant of technology, and technical staff cannot be completely separated from power. This is a good thing." Ying Zheng thought about it, "Taipu Temple Young Master, these two Aren’t yamen a yamen that requires both technology accumulation and talent management? So let’s start reforming these two yamen first.”

But the biggest problem is that this will improve the social status of the artisans.

"This matter cannot be pushed forward while Li Si is passively coping with work. It must be considered by the foreign court." Ying Zheng thought to himself.

That afternoon Li Si couldn't sit still.

These past few days, it was as if he had been tortured by two heavens of ice and fire.

He boasts that his abilities are unparalleled, and he is certain that no one can replace his position.

However, Jiang Bai's ability to handle government affairs was beyond everyone's expectations.

In the afternoon, Feng Jie, Feng Quji and Wang Wan came to see Li Si. They were visiting Li Si in name but actually giving him a warning.

Wang Wan said bluntly: "Of the things I have at hand, the ones that I thought were the most difficult to handle were quickly approved. Most of them were handled with more methods than I expected. I don't have the ability."

"Many of the memorials at the Yushitai were originally intended for the emperor to make his own decisions, but we can't find any fault with the Taifu's opinions," Feng Quji said.As the Right Prime Minister who actually controls the entire Prime Minister's Mansion these days, Feng Jie admires and fears him the most.

"More than 50 major military and political matters were sent over and were sent back before night for everyone to discuss. Few people could find the fault. The difficulty of execution is even lower than if you handle it personally. This is not what we have the ability to do. ." Feng Jie warned, "If you don't go to court tomorrow, the emperor will probably not wait for you anymore."

Li Sidao: "I'm afraid this isn't the most terrifying thing, right?"

of course not!

"The most important task of the prime minister's group is to assist the emperor in considering the future of the country. We don't need to tell you that he is more capable than us, and his vision far exceeds that of everyone in the world, and your majesty may not be able to match it." Wang Wan said, "Go back and keep the power in your hands before going to court."

Li Si said awkwardly: "Your Majesty didn't send anyone to urge you, so I can't go back to the court to do things."

"Then you can't wait for the rest of your life. Don't you know what His Majesty's temper is?!" The three walked away.

Li Si's desire for power is so great, I'm not afraid that he won't rush to court with a shameless face.

Sure enough, there was an early morning court meeting the next day, and the officials were surprised to find that Li Si was also here.

But the bigger surprise was that Meng Wu got into a new car.

This was a special gift from the emperor.

"Oh, Prime Minister Zuo, are you feeling better?" Meng Wu asked loudly.

Li Si smiled bitterly and said, "Old general, please save some face for me."

"What do you want to lose face for?" Meng Wu said louder, "Coping with national affairs passively, you already have no face, who else do you want to give you face?"

Li Si was panicked, but the other three princes were happy.

Meng Wu scolded Li Si before going to court so that the emperor could not continue to attack.

This made Meng Yi very passive.

He thought Meng Wu was protecting Li Si.

"Xiao He, is there any way you can help me take my father away?!" Meng Yi asked quietly.

"Nei Shi, hurry up and go to the front. Don't pay attention to this matter. The old general and your majesty's tutor understand each other." Xiao He said quietly.

Meng Yi was puzzled.

Xiao He said: "The Taifu does not want to be a powerful official, and Li Si cannot leave him."

……

"You are a talent!" Meng Yi praised.

"What are you doing? I, Taipu Temple, have very few talents and are not allowed to poach!" Wu Shiluo hurried over to warn.

Meng Yi smiled and said: "How dare you? I'm just asking for an idea."

"The Grand Tutor told me last night that your father is probably the only one in the entire dynasty who has the right to criticize Li Si. In case the emperor wants to give Li Si some face, no one will give him this step," Wu Shiluo said.

Good now, these people are quiet.

Li Si thought for a long time before coming back to his senses when he was about to go to court.

He felt sad. The emperor still valued him, but he was no longer as obedient as before.

"But if you think about it carefully, I didn't cause this myself. The emperor didn't have any objection to the hero, but the hero stood in front of the emperor." Li Si thought to himself.
