I opened a tavern in Datang/Datang: My peerless talent was exposed

Hearing this, Li Chengqian was actually complaining secretly in his heart. Obviously, the teacher's privileges of the King of Qin also include opening government offices and building mansions. The teacher is qualified to form his own team. It's just that the teacher is too lazy and doesn't care about these things at all, so he didn't do it. .

However, he secretly thought about these words in his heart, and never dared to say them outright, because he felt that Zhang Nuo might beat him up if he said them out. But that doesn't mean anyone can complain about him, especially a junior like Li Chengqian.

So he just sat there obediently and was a good student.

Seeing that Li Chengqian did not refute, Zhang Nuo continued with satisfaction,

"Your real advantage lies in time and your teacher me!"

"As we said before, the truly most talented group of people, if there are no special circumstances, will actually not go to you for the time being, but will go directly to your father!"

"Then what about the second-class ones? Don't be too disgusted. If you really have that kind of talent, talent, and good temperament, even if they are not particularly outstanding, as long as they are more suitable for you, then you have earned it!"

"That's why I just said that your greatest advantage lies in time and your teacher me!"

"Because as long as you find such a person, put it by your side and observe for a while. After you are really sure, you can send him to Lantian City for training through your teacher!"

"Don't see, your teacher may have retired by then, but your teacher and I can still make the decision on this three-acre land in Lantian City. When the time comes, send the people you want to train there, and study hard according to the way you studied at that time. Again, so you are still worried that they will not be able to keep up with your pace?"

"If that kind of situation really happens, it can only show that you have misjudged the person, so just give up. Anyway, you don't even think about succession in the past few years. So, you have enough time to choose And train your own team, rest assured, the teacher will support you!"

Li Chengqian was finally relieved when he heard this, and then he also understood that this was actually not only Zhang Nuo's suggestion to him, but also perhaps his best choice.

And his heart gradually calmed down.That's right, he's still young, he's still just a prince, he has plenty of time to slowly cultivate his own team, if one fails, he can choose a few more and send them to the teacher.

It just so happened that he could ask the teacher to help check it out. When the people who were sent over had been trained, he could really harvest a group of humerus ministers whose philosophy of governing the country was highly compatible with him and who could grow together at the same time.

Thinking of this, even though Li Chengqian has been taken care of by Zhang Nuo all the time, he can't help but feel a burst of warmth. He knows the character of his teacher very well.

Obviously Zhang Nuo has always been in Lantian City, but why didn't his father let Zhang Nuo put in the effort to train a group of people?

Zhang Nuo really didn't pay much attention to the people trained by the imperial court in Lantian City. They were basically left there to fend for themselves, but when they came to him, they told him openly that he himself was Li Chengqian's greatest advantage one.

what is this?

This is really taking care of him as his own nephew, otherwise, with Zhang Nuo's lazy temper, it would be nice if he could help you take a look, why bother.

You must know that since Zhang Nuo made this kind of promise, he really took this matter on his shoulders. For a salty fish like Zhang Nuo, this is nothing more than a rare thing.

Thinking of this, Li Chengqian didn't say much, and directly held the bottle with both hands and said to Zhang Nuo,

"Thank you teacher for your support and guidance, Chengqian respect teacher!"

Zhang Nuo smiled and raised the bottle to touch him. He was quite satisfied with his stupid apprentice's obedience, and it was not in vain for me to help him so much!

Then the two chatted about other topics. Not only did Li Chengqian have many questions to ask Zhang Nuo, Zhang Nuo also began to introduce some things in the army to Li Chengqian.

As a crown prince and a prince who is destined to reach the highest peak of the Tang Dynasty, although he cannot touch military power for the time being, he must not be ignorant of military affairs.

Li Chengqian did learn the art of war when he was in the East Palace, but that thing was not just on paper, it was completely incompatible with the current military strength of the Tang Dynasty.

Not to mention anything else, let's just say that Datang, who is currently equipped with hot weapons and has formed the three armed forces of the sea, land and air, still uses those old military tactics rigidly, which is not nonsense.

But the art of war can be used, but those military ideas can still be used for reference and absorption.

This is what Zhang Nuo and Li Chengqian are talking about now, how to flexibly use those military ideas and cooperate with the ever-changing military equipment of the Tang Dynasty to exert the greatest effectiveness.

In this regard, only Zhang Nuo has the most say in the entire Tang Dynasty. Perhaps Su Dingfang will be able to take over Zhang Nuo's important task when he grows up, but for now, there is one and only him.

Thinking of Su Dingfang, Zhang Nuo hesitated for a while, then looked at Li Chengqian and said seriously,

"Chengqian, speaking of the military, teacher, I have to recommend someone to you. His name is Su Dingfang. He is Li Jing's apprentice, or a direct disciple. He has advanced studies in both the Naval Academy and the Air Force Academy and graduated early. This kind of person will definitely be a good commander in the future!"

"It's inconvenient for you to recruit him now, and there's no need to recruit him. After all, you can't touch military power, but the teacher still wants to introduce you to each other. He will go out with the teacher this time, and the teacher will teach him something when he goes out. I hope he won't reject you for the teacher's sake!"

"Having a good relationship with him will definitely not do you any harm!"

Chapter 993 Li Chengqian's Bad News

Zhang Nuo actually said this after thinking about it for a long time.

Regarding Su Dingfang, Zhang Nuo talked carefully several times when he was squatting in Lantian City during this period, and he had a relatively intuitive understanding.

From the point of view of temperament, some of them have inherited the stability of his master Li Jing. It seems that they don't talk much when they sit together, but they are definitely not as low as Li Jing's emotional intelligence.

And if you look at it from the perspective of ability, it goes without saying that, as the only person who has seriously studied the tactics of the three armies, Su Dingfang is definitely worthy of his reputation.

At the beginning of Zhang Nuo, what worried him most was that Su Dingfang also had an elm-headed head like Li Jing, the kind who didn't even know how stupid he was.

But after getting in touch with him slowly, I found that although his temperament is calm and even a little dull, there are basically no problems in other aspects, and he should not be like his master.

After comprehensive consideration, in the end Zhang Nuo still felt that it would be a waste for Su Dingfang, a famous general, to just let it go like this, and he should help if he can.

In Li Shimin's hands alone, Su Dingfang may not be able to grow to a certain extent. After all, Li Shimin has generals he trusts more, and his old brothers will definitely not retire for the time being.

So if Su Dingfang really wants to grow up, it must be more than ten or twenty years later. At that time, it is basically the time for Li Chengqian to take over the throne. Bloom the most dazzling light.

After all, compared with the veterans currently occupying high positions, Su Dingfang's age and seniority are still far behind. To put it bluntly, no matter how skilled and senior is not enough, he can only suffer slowly.

Li Chengqian didn't think much about Zhang Nuo's recommendation.In his opinion, since the teacher has made arrangements, there is no need for him to think about it.

If someone else recommended some general in the army to him, he must have thought about it more, whether there were any traps in it that he hadn't noticed.

But when the recommender becomes Zhang Nuo, don't worry about it, anyway, Zhang Nuo can't cheat him, even if there is a problem in it, his father will blame him in the future, he can push Zhang Nuo without hesitation , and then his dear teacher will definitely carry it without hesitation.

After all, ordinary people can't deal with his father, so why not his teacher?

But today is the day for him to clean up the dust for his master. It’s not good to talk about these political affairs and military affairs all the time. He became like a drinking buddy sitting in a tavern drinking and chatting, chatting without any rules.

But while chatting, Li Chengqian suddenly talked about various local stories and some strange things when he was managing the local area, and one of them caught Zhang Nuo's attention.

In fact, this is a very small matter, that is, the people of a tribe were originally very powerful, but for some reason, in their own words, they were not blessed by the gods, and the tribe that has been passed down for hundreds of years has continued to grow in recent decades. of the dead.

The most horrifying thing is that all the high-level tribesmen died, and the death conditions were very miserable, all of them looked haggard as if they had been sucked by ghosts.

If only a few people died, this kind of thing would not be heard by Li Chengqian. After all, in the eyes of Datang, the people in these tribes are no different from uncivilized savages.

But when the number of deaths reached a certain level, and the death conditions were rather strange, it would be impossible to get the news from Li Chengqian, because these would be the human resources for Datang to build here in the future.

Besides, a large number of Datang immigrants are now coming to Zhongnan. If he can't take care of it, and if something goes wrong, then his idea of ​​coming here to experience and gain credit will be completely ruined. up.

After all, even if Li Chengqian has not been able to do anything famous here in the past few years, he can still get a mature and prudent evaluation after all, but if something bad happens to him, then don't say it, unless the credit is greater than the sky, Otherwise, a hat of ineffective governance will never be able to escape.

No, ever since this incident became more and more troublesome and more and more people died, it was reported to Li Chengqian, and he really took it to heart.

He wasn't worried that these savages were dead. To put it bluntly, there was a war going on here. How many days wouldn't 800 people die on the battlefield?How many people have died? What is there to care about?

But he is worried about the plague. If a plague really breaks out in this ghost place, will the people of the Tang Dynasty here and the hundreds of thousands of soldiers of the Tang Dynasty here and there still live this day?

No, he felt that something was wrong, and taking advantage of Zhang Nuo's presence this time and the interest in chatting again, he brought up this question incidentally.

He has not forgotten that his teacher is actually very amazing in terms of medical skills, but ordinary people don't know it at all, but no matter whether it is his father, mother, or even his grandpa, what is really uncomfortable or has a headache? Basically, as long as Zhang Nuo is still here in Lantian City and Chang'an City, he will definitely not go to the imperial doctor but to him.

After all, with a master like Zhang Nuo here, he can say what he has to say without worrying about causing gossip. This is not much better than Tai Hospital.

The most important thing is, how many gossips came from the Tai Hospital?

Since Li Shimin and his wife both trust Zhang Nuo's medical skills, it is not necessary to have more contact with Li Chengqian with Zhang Nuo on a daily basis. He is not weak in stature, and Zhang Nuo has a lot of credit for it.

After Zhang Nuo heard Li Chengqian's question, he didn't answer it as soon as Li Chengqian thought. Instead, he frowned and began to think.

Mainly because this place is a bit evil.

Where is this place? It is the Indochina Peninsula, the hometown where the descendants of the ethnic group stayed, and it is a place where various infectious diseases hold annual meetings on a regular basis every year.

If it was other places, if it was other people, perhaps Zhang Nuo would not have directly suspected the plague, but in this place, Zhang Nuo was really worried that some deadly, highly contagious disease would break out here.

He is really afraid of this. After all, with the current medical conditions, if such a large-scale disease breaks out, it must be a big deal if it doesn't come!

Chapter 994 Changes in Official Documents

After talking about this topic, Zhang Nuo didn't even have the intention to continue drinking for a while, so he directly pulled Li Chengqian out of the study. He is in good condition at present. Anyway, he just drank some beer. Delay in handling things.

The master and apprentice went directly to the formal office hall, which is the government affairs processing center of the entire south-central region. Except for the area where the county government is divided, all other officials work here on a daily basis.

Zhang Nuo had been here before, so it was familiar, but it would be nonsense to say that he knew much about this place. After all, his place of work was in the military camp, not the Governor's Mansion here.

Of course, he doesn't know other people, which doesn't mean that others don't know him. His majestic King Qin is also the teacher of the prince. This identity is a big boss everywhere, let alone the governor of this land is Li Chengqian, but everyone knows it. Zhang Nuo, who is also the commander-in-chief of the Central South battlefield, is more eloquent than Li Chengqian in this field.

It was also because of this that when Zhang Nuo and Li Chengqian walked in side by side, everyone stood up and hurriedly greeted each other, not to mention how close they were to Zhang Nuo, but at least they would not get an unruly evaluation. They knew that Zhang Nuo has multiple voices in front of Li Chengqian.

Even if he didn't know it before, it can be seen from the fact that Li Yifu was dragged directly until now and he hasn't appeared yet. If Zhang Nuo really wants to deal with someone, Li Chengqian will definitely support him without hesitation.

However, Zhang Nuo didn't come here to let them get close. He frowned and nodded at the crowd, which was regarded as having seen him before. Then he followed Li Chengqian's footsteps and went directly to the shelf beside him to start flipping through the files.

The dossiers here are all recorded daily affairs, so that when the big guy sometimes involves certain daily affairs, he thinks of similar things he has dealt with before, but he can't remember the details, so he can directly look through the dossier.

And the reason why Li Chengqian and Zhang Nuo came here was also because of the plague-like thing Li Chengqian said before. In fact, Li Chengqian only knew the general idea, so he asked the people below to pay attention to it. The dossier is reliable.

Li Chengqian and Zhang Nuo didn't use other people to do it, they searched all the way through the directory by themselves.

For the two of them, this should not be too simple. After all, the document organization and storage system of the entire Datang was updated and adjusted under Zhang Nuo's suggestion. Others may not know the way inside, how could Zhang Nuo not know? ?

As Zhang Nuo's student, he had stayed with Zhang Nuo as an assistant for so many years. Li Chengqian should not be too familiar with this kind of filing and filing. This is simply his starting career.

It didn't take long for the master and apprentice to find the file they wanted, turned around and walked out without saying a word. Naturally, the things they wanted to discuss couldn't be discussed in such a public place.

After all, they know very well that if it is really a plague, there is only one way to completely wipe out all life in that place, and it is safest to kill all people, animals and viruses in that place.

But this kind of thing that can only be done but not talked about, how can it be possible to discuss it in front of others?

The master and apprentice returned to the place where they ate and drank just now with the files, and they were not surprised that the messy table had been cleaned up.

The two of them sat on the seats before, opened the file bag of the file and started flipping through it one by one.

Neither of them spoke, but Li Chengqian cooperated with Zhang Nuo's habit in silence. Every time he finished reading the document, he obviously sat opposite Zhang Nuo, but he would habitually turn the document around and put it on the table. On the left hand side of Zhang Nuo, so that it is convenient for Zhang Nuo to check.

This is also the habit that Li Chengqian developed when he was an assistant beside Zhang Nuo. Li Shimin and Empress Changsun ordered Li Chengqian to do this very early. He is a junior in front of Zhang Nuo, so don't put on airs .

Besides, Li Chengqian is indeed not the kind of bluffing, domineering temperament.

Therefore, he has always been an honest child in front of Zhang Nuo, and Zhang Nuo really likes this kind of obedient child.

But this is not the time to lament that Li Chengqian is obedient and sensible. These two of them are just their daily work habits, and their attention is still more on the documents.

Today's Datang document system has basically adopted the most concise and straightforward vernacular language to record and write after Zhang Nuo, Li Shimin and many other bigwigs have continuously sprayed it.

After all, the traditional ancient Chinese can be put aside if it is difficult to understand, but many polysemous situations are very troublesome.

What does the official document represent?

That represents rigor, earnestness, seriousness and meticulousness, and there are too many cases of ambiguity in ancient Chinese, and the word "ran" can make many people feel uneasy. The scalp is scratched and I don't know how to define it.

After all, the interpretation of a word in ancient Chinese often needs to be analyzed in conjunction with the context, otherwise the meaning will be completely different.

In this case, no matter who is reading the document, it is estimated that they will have to curse "The scholar misunderstood me".

Therefore, from the beginning of Zhang Nuo's cultivation of the new generation of new officials, he joined hands with Li Shimin to promote the reform of the official document system.

Of course, there will naturally be resistance in the middle, at least in the eyes of those old and stubborn people, these things should not be changed, how can Datang's official documents be so straightforward.

But Zhang Nuo and Li Shimin just refused to turn back. They fought hard and pushed the whole policy forward.

In fact, the one who contributed the most among them was not the big bosses at the top, but the bottom and the largest group of officials.

You must know that among them, not many people can write like a god. In the past, it was too painful for them to write official documents. I really don't have this ability.

But now it’s all right, His Majesty and His Royal Highness the King of Qin have joined forces to promote the reform of official documents. The requirements are simply shockingly simple. The words are straightforward, accurate, and concise. It’s gone. This is lower than the previous requirements for writing official documents into prose and masterpieces. Too much.

Therefore, the reform of official documents, which the world thought would be a big riot, was deployed and spread with little effort under the support of the top and bottom.

But what Zhang Nuo and Li Chengqian saw now was the result of the popularization of official documents reform!

Chapter 995 Sudden Assassination

Zhang Nuo and Li Chengqian, both master and apprentice, have been looking at the documents, with very serious expressions on their faces. There are more than a few problems here. There are serious problems here. Zhang Nuo has already told Li Chengqian about his considerations just now, so he is not worried. Otherwise, worry about a large-scale plague.

So now he wants to conduct a wave of analysis from the existing clues in the dossier to see if the possibility of this incident being a plague is high, and then send someone to investigate on the spot.

In fact, despite the fact that there are not many people sent by Datang here, in fact, most of these people are young people, which means that they have all received professional skills training from Lantian City.

Compared with the old-fashioned officials, they may be inferior in various aspects such as literary talent and experience, but their enthusiasm and execution ability are definitely not lacking.

Moreover, one of their biggest advantages, or an advantage shared by officials from Lantian City, is that they are very knowledgeable.

Basically, all the officials trained will learn more about a certain direction in addition to daily training. Some are industry, some are commerce, some are agriculture, and some are medicine. These are not required by the higher authorities, but they are actively learning.

In fact, these things all come from Zhang Nuo's words. When Zhang Nuo spoke to the first batch of students, he once mentioned this point of view, that is, what officials need is multi-skilled.

What is one specialty with multiple abilities? The so-called "specialty" naturally refers to professional skills such as official document writing, administrative affairs processing, and local planning that are needed in officialdom, and multi-skills is one of the suggestions Zhang Nuo gave them. The point is to expand your abilities, don't stare at positions like county magistrates and governors.

To put it bluntly, there is only one county magistrate in a county, but there can be many bureau chiefs, and these specialized agencies all have skills requirements for leaders, and if you have relevant experience or knowledge reserves before, then you will definitely Go one step ahead of everyone else.
