The officials walked out of the hall cheerfully, Zhang Xiuye couldn't believe his eyes.
You know, when he left the hall, the atmosphere inside was already extremely tense.
Then, roars even came from the hall, and the situation worsened even more.
Zhang Xiuye and the deputy commander of the Forbidden Army were even prepared for a 'coup', but the situation turned around 180 degrees? !
What a hell!
Zhang Xiuye rushed into the main hall and found that Emperor Liang had already left, and hurried to the imperial study room.
Seeing that Emperor Liang was already sitting behind the Dragon Case, he began to correct the memorial. The look on his face was unprecedentedly relaxed.
Zhang Xiuye couldn't help but become more confused, and quickly asked in a low voice: "Your Majesty, what exactly happened in this hall?"
"It's not that the slave is daring and wants to inquire about secrets, but..."
Before Zhang Xiuye could finish speaking, Emperor Liang interrupted softly: "I know what you are thinking, and I only need to tell you one sentence. There is no need to think wildly."
"Now, I am the leader of the world. The world is temporarily peaceful. Everyone only needs to abide by their duties."
After saying that, Emperor Liang waved his hand to signal Zhang Xiuye to retreat.
When Emperor Liang was the only one left in the imperial study, he slowly raised his head, looked at the sky outside the window, and breathed a long sigh of relief.
Although as the saying goes, paper cannot contain the fire. What happened in the hall today will spread all over the world sooner or later.
Everyone will know that Qin Feng turned the tide and helped the building to collapse.
But until then, the slower the news spreads, the better.
After all, once the wealthy families in the south and Beidi learn that Emperor Liang and Qin Feng are reconciled, they will definitely react. By then, they will only cause trouble.
As for what happened today, speaking of it, even Emperor Liang was somewhat unexpected.
He knew that Qin Feng was a loyal minister, but he didn't expect that Qin Feng was so loyal that he was able to stop the situation at the moment when he was about to lose power.
Moreover, Qin Feng's willingness to become a minister was naturally the best outcome for Emperor Liang.
Emperor Liang was tired. He knew that Qin Feng was by no means a thing in the pool. If he continued to consume, even Emperor Liang himself might be exhausted by Qin Feng.
Today's reconciliation, in addition to trust in Qin Feng, the more important point is naturally Qin Feng's own strength.
Emperor Liang shook his head and chuckled: "Hey, Qin Feng, Qin Feng, ever since you returned to the capital with Li Lang's tomb, tensions have been rising inside and outside the capital, and everyone's nerves have been tense to the extreme."
"Even I thought that this internal catastrophe could no longer be avoided."
"I didn't expect that you kid would surprise me again."
"What a great surprise!"
"In this case, I will give you time, and I will also give myself time. As for what will happen in the future, I can't worry about it."
Just as Emperor Liang had guessed, the supposed airtight 'reconciliation in the main hall' had already reached the ears of Li Yong in the East Palace within a tea break.
Li Yong, who was lying on the couch with Zizhi Tongjian in his hand, jumped up from the couch after hearing Xiao Zhuozi's report.
"What? Your Majesty and Qin Feng...reconciled?!"
"How is that possible! I know your Majesty's character best. Once someone is suspected by His Majesty, he will be jealous to death!"
Speaking of this, without waiting for Xiao Zhuozi to answer, Li Yong shook his head and smiled bitterly, figuring it out himself first.
"Haha, what can we do if we don't understand? With Qin Feng's current strength, who can suppress him?"
Xiao Zhuozi's face was extremely ugly. After all, as the old saying goes, if one person achieves enlightenment, chickens and dogs will ascend to heaven.
As long as Li Yong inherits the throne, Xiao Zhuozi will be the undisputed general manager of the harem.
It is precisely for this reason that Li Yong's interests are also the interests of Xiao Zhuozi.
Xiao Zhuozi said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty not only reconciled with Qin Feng, but also... also gave Qin Feng the title of Tianlu Hou."
"Tianluhou is the head of hundreds of princes. Since the founding of the Liang Dynasty, I have only canonized one person, and it was... the late emperor had to use this Tianluhou as a basis when he wanted to weigh the forces of all parties and depose the founding fathers."
"This is the first time that someone has taken the initiative to confer the title of Tianlu Hou."
After hearing this, Li Yong didn't take it seriously and waved his hand lightly: "It doesn't matter."
"Not to mention Marquis Tianlu, what can he do even if he is the Duke of the country, or even a king with a different surname? It is just a false title. He has no real power in his hands, and his huge title is worthless."
"I feel that as long as it is not an official position with real power, there is no need to care."
Xiao Zhuozi's eyes were complicated: "Your Majesty, what if I tell you that in addition to the title of Tianluhou, there is also the entire northern fiefdom?"
Li Yong, who had been so calm just now, suddenly froze.
He stared at Xiao Zhuozi with such cold eyes that even Xiao Zhuozi had never seen before.
"Can you say that again!"
Xiao Zhuozi swallowed his saliva and said nervously: "Your Highness, it's absolutely true!"
"After His Majesty and Qin Feng reconciled in the main hall, he first granted the post of Taiwei to Qin Tianhu."
"Subsequently, the national policy was revised. As long as His Majesty is in office, no one is allowed to mention the appointment of Taibao. However, in order to implement the decree smoothly, a Shaobao was temporarily appointed, and Chen Zheng, Minister of Taipu Temple, took over."
"Finally, I made Qin Feng Tianluhou and granted him a fiefdom in the north."
Li Yong's face was ashen, his body was stiff on the couch, and his eyes were extremely sinister: "In other words, now including Beixi County, Qin Feng is the legitimate king of the entire northern border?!"
Xiao Zhuozi quickly reminded: "Your Highness, this is Marquis Tianlu, Marquis..."
Snapped!
Li Yong swept the teacup in front of him away, and the teacup hit the wall with a crisp sound.
"Marquis! Marquis is nothing! The entire northern territory has been given to Qin Feng. He is not a king in name, but he is better than a king!"
"Your Majesty, is he an old fool?"
These words frightened Xiao Zhuozi so much that he collapsed on the ground and kowtowed: "Your Highness, please calm down and don't speak arrogantly."
"Although this East Palace belongs to His Majesty, we are not afraid of ten thousand, but just in case. If the news reaches His Majesty's ears, I am afraid..."
Xiao Zhuozi did not dare to continue talking.
Ever since he served Li Yong, he had never seen Li Yong so angry.
You know, Li Yong's "forbearance" trick brought down the second prince Li Qian. Now, he is actually in chaos and insulting His Majesty loudly. This is simply unbelievable.
Is it possible that Qin Feng cannot even resist the Seventh Prince?
Li Yong was furious and wanted to curse several times, but he held back at the last moment.
The reason why he was so angry was because Emperor Liang's move completely ruined all his years of hard work.
It is easy to inherit a big position, but it is difficult to convince the public!
If he cannot make the civil and military ministers surrender to him, even if he is sitting firmly on the dragon throne, he will be pulled down. No matter how high he sits, he will be thrown down hard!
Li Yong has long been aware of the stakes here, like a clear mirror, and he knows everything about his family.
The reconciliation between Emperor Liang and Qin Feng naturally has a positive side. From now on, the internal strife in Daliang has come to an end. From now on, Emperor Liang can concentrate on dealing with the Lin family in Jiangnan and the wealthy families in the south.
As long as these two hidden dangers are eliminated, Daliang's internal affairs will be considered complete, which will not only improve people's livelihood, but also consolidate the political power.
And Qin Feng will definitely assist Emperor Liang with all his strength to attack the wealthy families internally and resist powerful enemies externally.
All subsequent policies will go smoothly and achieve twice the result with half the effort.
But the problem is that this move is a nightmare for Li Yong.
Qin Feng and Emperor Liang had a special relationship. They were both monarchs and ministers, but also... close friends.
Even if the two of them don't admit it, the fact is the fact. Qin Feng is the person who knows Emperor Liang best, and Emperor Liang is also the person who loves Qin Feng the most. These two people can be said to cherish each other!
As long as Emperor Liang is on the throne, Qin Feng is willing to surrender. But when Emperor Liang leaves the throne and he succeeds, how will Qin Feng surrender easily? !
