Early in the morning, inside Chang'an Government Hall.
Sitting on the futon, Xiangcheng Hou has been in high spirits during happy events these days!
Taking advantage of the fact that all of Xiao Han's best friends were in Qinling and unable to come back, he was jumping up and down, uniting with a group of people, intentionally or unintentionally, to finally declare Xiao Han dead in the file!
All that's left now is to dig a hole and bury two of his used rags! Then add Sanyuan County, which he had long coveted, to his name, and the hard work of so many days has finally come to fruition!
The Marquis of Xiangcheng has already made plans for this, but if it doesn't work out, it would be worth it to exchange for his Xiangcheng!
Just thinking about it, there was another commotion in the hall. When Xiangcheng Hou looked up, it was Chu Suiliang and Kong Yingda who once again complained to each other that the posthumous title of Duke Mingqiao was not suitable for Xiao Han's identity.
The Tang Dynasty followed the rules of the Han Dynasty: only those who are ennobled can have posthumous titles!
And this posthumous title is based on Wen, Wu, Ming, Rui, Kang, Jing, Zhuang, and Xuan!
Xiao Han's Mingzi ranks third among them, which is enough to show that Li Yuan values it! But this has made many veterans unwilling!
Based on their merits and qualifications, many of them will probably be embarrassed even after they die!
Why can this kid use clear words? Just because he died early? How could this make sense!
Ever since, as those two people were blaming each other in the court, other people also swarmed in! The main hall that was supposed to be solemn was noisy and noisy as if going to a market. The Xiangcheng Hou who was planning to propose the ownership of Sanyuan County today couldn't help but feel anxious!
When he thought about it, everyone was dead! What's the point of arguing about it? Even if you give him a correction! Can he survive? Hurry up and finalize this matter. The real thing is to divide the family property!
"presumptuous!"
Just when a group of old ministers below were quoting scriptures and talking about laws and regulations, Li Yuan, who was sitting on the dragon chair, finally got angry! He slapped the dragon table in front of him with such force that all the tea cups and pen washers bounced up, making a crackling sound on the table!
Li Yuan ignored the messy tabletop and glanced coldly down the court: "My decree has been made. Do you want me to take it back and change it?!"
These angry words seemed to have a chill in them! The ministers who were stabbed quickly bowed and saluted: "I don't dare!"
"If you don't dare, don't mention this matter anymore!"
"My lord, I obey the order..."
Perhaps it was because Li Yuan rarely lost his temper in court. The old ministers looked at me and I looked at you to make sure that Li Yuan was really angry. Then they sighed and returned to their ranks.
Seeing that the old ministers were like eggplants beaten by frost, the Marquis of Xiangcheng couldn't help but gloat a little. He closed his mouth with great strength and secretly glanced at Yan Guan behind him.
That Yan Guan was the one named Cui a few days ago. He seemed to have known that the Marquis of Xiangcheng would look over and nodded to him immediately.
"Your Majesty! I have this memorial!"
Seeing this, Xiangcheng Hou did not hesitate anymore and stood up happily to go out of the queue. He held Wu Ban and bowed to Li Yuan.
"Speak!" Li Yuan seemed to be still angry and said a word in a stiff tone.
"Ahem..." After hearing the emperor's words, the Marquis of Xiangcheng cleared his throat, glanced at the ministers around him and said, "Your Majesty! The Marquis of Sanyuan County has passed away. This is also destiny! Please don't be too sad. , put your body first! Put the country, the country, and the country first!"
"I know!"
The flattery continued, but Li Yuan's stiff tone did not change. It’s no wonder that someone who can be an emperor can’t be easily influenced by outsiders’ emotions.
When the Marquis of Xiangcheng saw that Li Yuan was unmoved, he couldn't help but clenched his fists. He couldn't understand the emperor's thoughts, but no matter what Li Yuan thought, now he had an arrow on the string and had to take action!
Bowing again, the Marquis of Xiangcheng said seriously: "Your Majesty! As the old saying goes, a country cannot be without a king for a day, and a family cannot be without a master for a day! Now the Marquis of Sanyuan County has died! In my opinion, Sanyuan County should get up early. Take it back and distribute it again! It will save you some time and it will be stolen by some servants."
"I second the proposal!"
"I also second the proposal!"
As soon as Xiangcheng Hou finished speaking, before Li Yuan could speak, several people in the court immediately stood up and seconded his opinion!
Seeing this scene, Changsun Wuji's heart skipped a beat: What was supposed to come has come!
There were seven or eight people in the court who seconded the proposal, but Li Yuan, who was sitting on the dragon chair, was silent again.
Seeing such a scene, the ministers below couldn't help but started talking among themselves. In fact, many people would not have thought of this if the Marquis of Xiangcheng had not said it today!
This is not because they are stupid, but because throughout history, Xiao Han's current situation is unprecedented! As for whether there will be anyone coming later, according to them, there probably won't be...
He is in a high position, but he has no parents, no clansmen, not even wives! This is a real loner! The widowed one doesn’t even have any oil or water! Who are you going to leave this huge fortune earned with your bare hands to?
There was a buzzing sound down there! After a moment, the silent Li Yuan finally spoke.
He slowly looked at Xiangcheng Hou, who was still bowing, and said expressionlessly: "Who do the Qing family think can take charge of Sanyuan County after it is taken back?"
"Nonsense! Of course it's me!"
When the Marquis of Xiangcheng heard this, he couldn't help but roar in his heart! But he also knew that he could not say these words under any circumstances!
For this reason, he could only bow more humbly and said: "I dare not make a decision for the Holy One!"
When he said this, no one noticed, but the Marquis of Xiangcheng glanced slightly at the officials standing on one side. They were all people he had paid a lot of money to win over!
According to the discussion between him and the spokesman, those few people should come out to take credit for him at this time! It's best to finalize this matter before others react! Then great things can be accomplished!
However, the Marquis of Xiangcheng took a glance and found that those few people were unmoved! Feeling puzzled, he glanced again, but those people were still like clay and stone sculptures! In the end, I almost blinked my eyes until I reached Xiangcheng! He is just one, two, three, a stone man! No talking or moving!
"What's going on?!" The Marquis of Xiangcheng already felt bad at this time, but he didn't dare to question him in the court! I just wanted to recall what we discussed last night to see if I remembered it correctly!
A middle-aged man in a purple robe stood up and said loudly: "Your Majesty! I think that Sanyuan County is just a small county! Since the Marquis of Sanyuan County has no descendants to inherit, then as the Marquis of Xiangcheng said, take back It is state-owned, and it is also a good idea to entrust it to meritorious ministers! I would like to recommend Zuopu to shoot Lord Pei Ji..."
"Recommended by my colleagues!"
"I also recommend..."
The Marquis of Xiangcheng couldn't hear the rest of the words clearly. He only saw the official and a few people who had received his heavy gifts come out to echo. At this moment, he suddenly understood a lot.
"I am making a wedding dress for another disciple!"
(According to "Book of Rites: Qu Li Xia": The death of the emperor is called collapse, the princes are called dead, the great officials are called dead, the scholars are called unlucky, and the common people are called death)
