Wanting to put Qin Feng to death was not something that only crossed Emperor Liang's mind?
But now, Qin Feng has made great achievements and has been awarded an unprecedented title of Ten Thousand Households.
In Beijing, he had the protection of Qin Tianhu and the support of Taolin Party officials.
Coupled with the die-hard northern soldiers and horses, as well as the blessing of extraordinary achievements.
The only way to get rid of Qin Feng is to order the Kyoto garrison to attack him.
But what are the consequences of this? Emperor Liang didn't even dare to think about it.
Emperor Liang's balancing act was to guard against someone who was so powerful that even Emperor Liang was afraid of him.
What are you afraid of, what come!
Even Emperor Liang did not expect that Qin Feng would rely on a national war to grow to what it is today.
"Sage, restoring Li Lang's identity is equivalent to restoring the identities of King Ming and Li Zhang. This matter must not be compromised.
“But Qin Feng is determined to help Prince Ming’s family.
“Continuing to consume will only trigger waves of internal strife.
"And Li Lang did die on the battlefield. If this matter is not handled properly, the morale of the army will be disturbed.
"In my opinion, it's better to take a step back with Qin Feng."
Emperor Liang knew that the eldest princess and the noble concubine were both extremely smart women.
I went back to the harem today because I wanted to listen to the second daughter’s advice.
The eldest princess's remarks really interested Emperor Liang.
"Everyone take a step back? What's the way to retreat?"
If it had been left in the past, Emperor Liang would never have had the idea of "retreating".
As the king of a country, how can he bow his head to his ministers?
Just thinking about it is trampling on the imperial power.
Now, Emperor Liang has nothing to do with Qin Feng, even if he uses hard and soft tactics.
The Ministry of Rites and the ministers of Guanglu Temple were sent to make peace, and the imperial army was sent to put pressure. What was the result?
It's not like it's a disappointment.
Especially Qin Feng, that guy is too much!
He directly parked Li Lang's coffin in the lobby of the Qin family. This was not an obvious intention to tell the world.
Is Emperor Liang a ruthless and unjust person?
Emperor Liang wished he could cut Qin Feng into pieces, but despite his anger, he was helpless.
It is taboo to kill the heroes after the war.
Now that it's time, the eldest princess naturally doesn't dare to make any detours.
"Then what Qin Feng wants is to send Li Lang to the royal ancestral hall. If that's the case, that's all he needs to do.
"The saint can issue an edict, thinking that Li Lang sacrificed his life for the country and outweighing the merits and demerits, allow Li Lang to move into the royal ancestral hall.
“As for what fault is offset, it does not need to be stated.
"The saints have already retreated to this level, so Qin Feng is a smart man, so he will naturally accept it as soon as he sees fit.
"In this way, Qin Feng got what he wanted, Li Lang also moved into the royal ancestral hall, and the identity of Prince Ming's family was confirmed.
"Dear the sinful body!"
After hearing what the eldest princess said, Emperor Liang's eyes couldn't help but light up and he suddenly became enlightened.
Previously, Emperor Liang was too concerned about the imperial authority and refused to back down even a little bit. As a result, he got into trouble.
After all, Emperor Liang was only one person and could not cover everything.
The eldest princess's plan is undoubtedly the best choice now.
Emperor Liang felt that the big stone weighing on his heart finally fell.
He quickly summoned Zhang Xiuye and prepared an edict directly in the harem garden.
"Pass my order.
"Li Lang died in battle in order to protect the country's borders. He was guilty of meritorious service and was allowed to move into the royal ancestral hall.
"He was given the title of Li Lang to assist Yun County Bo."
An idea flashed in Emperor Liang's mind.
Since you have to do it, then do it absolutely so that Prince Ming’s family will never have a chance to stand up again.
He didn't give Qin Feng any excuse to threaten him.
This was the last chance Emperor Liang gave Qin Feng to make a decision.
If you want to move Li Lang into the royal ancestral hall, you must accept the title of earl. According to the ancestral system, during the reign of Emperor Liang, there is no need to pursue any further titles for Li Lang.
In this way, Li Lang will only be an earl, not a heir apparent, forever.
If Qin Feng is not satisfied with the status quo and continues to vindicate Li Lang's identity, then Emperor Liang can only continue to waste time with him.
After five months, will Li Lang be buried or not? Another problem awaits Qin Feng.
That night, the edict was sent to the Qin Mansion.
Qin Feng closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"A saint is still a saint after all. In such a short period of time, he came up with this way to get the best of both worlds."
Qin Feng secretly hated it, but had no choice but to accept the order.
Continuing to waste it will do no one any good.
This is already the best result Qin Feng can get.
Early the next morning, at dawn, the funeral procession appeared outside the gate of Qin Mansion.
While welcoming Li Lang's spiritual throne, he entered the royal ancestral hall.
On the other side, the coffin was escorted and buried in the imperial mausoleum.
As for the funeral procession, it was naturally of 'Earl' size.
No matter what, Emperor Liang refused to recognize Li Lang's status as the heir apparent.
On the occasion of Li Lang's burial, Emperor Liang also issued an edict, officially canonizing Qin Feng as a Marquis of Wanhu.
The rest of the soldiers also received rewards.
Ning Hu's title was not improved, but he gained an official status and was named deputy general of the Beixi Army.
Beixi Army...
When Qin Feng learned that the soldiers and horses of Beixi County were enrolled in the military, he couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"Even now, the saint still misses Beixi County."
Ning Hu was quite pleased with the position of deputy general of the Beixi Army.
After all, in Ning Hu's view, he has officially become a member of Beixi County.
Seeing Qin Feng frowning, Ning Hu couldn't help but feel strange.
"Brother Qin, Beixi County has formed an army, isn't it good?"
Qin Feng sighed lightly.
"Good and bad."
"The good thing is that Beixi County will be able to receive food and salary from now on, and the Ministry of War will help us share part of the military expenses."
"The bad thing is that Beixi County has officially become a regular army. In the future, the expansion of the army, weapons and equipment, and even training will have to follow the arrangements of the saint."
"To put it bluntly, Beixi County will always face the charge of 'rebellion' from now on."
Ning Hu never expected such deep-seated stakes.
I couldn't help but be secretly afraid.
"Brother Qin, how about you go talk and find a way to cancel our military registration in Beixi County?"
Upon hearing this, Qin Feng couldn't help but laugh.
I thought to myself that this Ning Hu was a good fighter, but as for court matters, he knew nothing about it.
"The saint tied up Beixi County without chains, and he had trouble sleeping and eating.
“In fact, you don’t need to pay too much attention to this matter.
“As long as our troops in Beixi County are strong, the saint will not attack.
"When the saint suspects that we have evil intentions to rebel, we'd better really have the strength to rebel."
Ning Hu was filled with mist, but as long as Qin Feng said it was okay, it must be okay.
At the same time, Xu Mo and Zhao Yulong were also named deputy generals of the Beixi Army.
Qin Cheng's family, former generals, chariot generals, and hussar generals were all recalled to Kyoto to receive rewards.
Qin Feng was not ambiguous and directly asked Jin Yiwei to send a message to the north.
The euphemistic name is: "To prevent another war in Beidi, I dare not leave. I am grateful to the saint for his kindness."
To put it bluntly, go back to Kyoto? Don’t even think about it!
