Su Xuanyong's voice fell, and not long after, a chamberlain walked over slowly, respectfully holding a bound scroll.
This chamberlain, whom Su Qi'an knew, was Wang Xian, the supervisor who had had conflicts with Su Qi'an at the northern border.
At this time, Wang Xian, with deep respect on his face, saluted Su Xuanyong. At his signal, Wang Xian opened the genealogy scroll, and a sharp voice slowly sounded.
"The great ancestor Su Yi had relatives from four clans and was granted the title of four kings. His second brother Yulin was granted the title of King of Yongchuan. Yulin gave birth to a son, Chenxi, Chenxi gave birth to a son, Mingyan, Mingyan gave birth to a son, Wenyi... Mubai gave birth to a son, Yuhan, and Yuhan gave birth to a son, Qi'an."
"After ten generations, Qian settled in Dongshan Village, Lingbei County, Sichuan County."
After Wang Xian's introduction, Wang Xian stopped when he read Su Qi'an's name. Everyone in the palace was speechless, with different expressions on their faces, unable to guess their thoughts.
But there is one thing in common. None of them could have imagined that this Dongshan Bo was really a descendant of the royal family.
Especially Wang Xian and Zheng Liang, their faces were full of solemnity.
The two of them had a feud with Su Qi'an on the northern battlefield. At that time, they also heard that Su Qi'an was a descendant of the royal family.
But they didn't care at all. Su Qian's identity at that time was just a small official. So what if he was a descendant of the royal family? It was nothing compared to them.
What's more important is that after more than ten generations of descendants like Su Qian'an, there are so many descendants of the royal family that by their generation, they are basically lost to everyone and are not a concern at all.
But now Su Qi'an is different. Not only has he been granted the title of earl, he has suppressed bandits in Xizhou and has won the hearts of the people. He has also gone one step further and became a first-class uncle.
Then, when he came to Kyoto, the auction held was such a blockbuster that even His Majesty ordered an invitation.
This kind of fame in Kyoto, coupled with the confirmed status as a descendant of the royal family, in terms of status, is definitely no less than any of the marquises present.
After all, for such an all-rounder in both civil and military affairs, and a descendant of the royal family, the royal family would only win over anyone who has no brains, not suppress them.
Sure enough, after confirming Su Qi'an's royal status, Su Xuanyong had a look of appreciation on his face and sighed.
"It turns out that Dongshan Bo is really the Queen of Yongchuan. The ancestors have spirits in heaven. I am very happy to see such an all-rounder among the descendants of the royal family."
"According to seniority, I am your uncle. Come on, Qian comes forward and lets me take a good look."
Su Qi'an did not dare to hesitate and stepped forward quickly. Standing on the edge of the high platform, Su Xuanyong looked at it and nodded with satisfaction.
"As expected of Queen Yongchuan, her eyebrows bear a resemblance to her ancestors. Qi'an, how old are you this year?"
"Your Majesty, there are four out of twenty this year." Su Qi'an replied respectfully. Read the book
"Oh, let's talk about it. In terms of age, you are a bit older than my two sons."
"Su Zhe, Su Tai, come and meet this cousin."
"Your Majesty, you can't do that." Su Qian declined quickly, with a serious look on his face.
But Su Xuanyong waved his hand and insisted, "You are the Queen of Yongchuan. In terms of seniority and age, it doesn't matter if Zhe'er and Tai'er call you cousin."
"Yes, Cousin Qi'an, my father is right. You and I are one family. Cousin Qi'an is so talented. It doesn't matter if my cousin calls me."
"Second brother is right, cousin Qi'an. My cousin is polite here." Su Tai also bowed his hand to Su Qi'an in a friendly manner.
Su Xuanyong laughed even more when he saw this scene. The eyes of everyone below the palace flashed, and finally Zheng Guo spoke openly.
"Congratulations, Your Majesty, for recognizing the descendants of the royal family at today's banquet. Having Dong Shanbo as a member of the royal family is a blessing to Great Liang and a blessing to us as well."
The other dignitaries all expressed their compliments one after another.
This scene looked very lively, except for Zhao Guogong below, whose face was stiff, but even so, he had no intention of giving in.
At this time. The second prince Su Zhe said, "Mr. Zhao, you trampled on Dongshan Bo's words just now, which undermined the majesty of the royal family. How do you solve it?"
Zhao Guogong's eyes flashed, he half-knelt on the ground and said respectfully
, "Your Highness, for offending Uncle Dongshan, this is what I did wrong, but I still say what I said, you should be cautious about making a prince, don't be afraid of 10,000, just be afraid of the worst."
"For the sake of the safety of the royal court, even if it costs my life, I still object to Dongshan Bo becoming a marquis."
"Zhao Guogong, you are so brave. You are relying on your old age and selling yourself off. Don't think that I dare not deal with you."
"I am so sincere that heaven and earth can learn from it! What I said is from the bottom of my heart. Your Majesty, think twice!"
No one expected that at this time, Duke Zhao would still be so tough. If nothing else, just the persistence of Duke Zhao was enough to make many people admire him.
The second prince's face looked a little ugly. Just as he was about to say something, he was interrupted by Su Xuanyong.
"Okay, let's not argue. In my opinion, the person who untied the bell must also tie the bell. Let Qi'an resolve this matter."
"Qi'an, what do you think?" Su Xuanyong looked at Su Qi'an with a smile.
Su Qi'an clasped his fists respectfully at Su Xuanyong and said. "This matter is not a big deal at all. Qi'an has also seen Duke Zhao's loyalty. Qi'an is angry, but it is just a personal grudge. Having to deal with a loyal minister is not worth the gain. Let's end this matter."
"Is it really just like this? Don't think about it. After all, if you miss this opportunity, it will be difficult to get another chance." Su Xuanyong said with a smile.
Su Qi'an shook his head firmly, "It is Great Liang's blessing to have a loyal person like Duke Zhao in the court. Qi'an only wants Great Liang to prosper. As for avenging private revenge, Qi'an has never had such an idea."
"As for the matter of becoming a marquis, Qi'an has never thought about it either. I have seen Duke Zhao's sincerity, so let's forget it."
Su Xuanyong laughed and nodded with satisfaction, "Haha, you are worthy of being a member of my royal family. Such courage is not bad."
Then he looked at Zhao Guogong and said softly, "Okay, Zhao Guogong, please get up. Your loyalty is visible to me, but at the same time, Qi'an is a member of the royal family and there is no way he has the intention to rebel. You two Human conflicts will be wiped out from now on."
"Focus on the government affairs of Great Liang and stop letting others worry about it, do you understand?"
"Old minister, I understand. I thank you for your kindness." Zhao Guogong bowed solemnly to Su Xuanyong, then stood up and returned to his seat without saying another word.
"Okay, today is a banquet hosted by me. I am really happy, and I can recognize an all-round royal family member today. I will raise a toast to you. I won't go home until I'm drunk tonight."
Everyone in the audience raised their glasses high, but felt relieved in their hearts.
Fortunately, His Majesty came forward, otherwise tonight's banquet would have been ruined.
Of course, their thoughts were more on Su Qi'an.
After all, His Majesty's enthusiastic attitude towards Su Qi'an just now made them reconsider the consequences of becoming an enemy of Su Qi'an.
Su Qi'an, on the other hand, was left by Su Xuanyong's side and sat down with the second and fourth princes.
He had a smile on his face, but his heart was quite tense.
Although what happened just now was so understated and revealed in one stroke, only Su Qi'an knew the dangers involved.
Originally, he didn't want to show his identity as a descendant of the royal family here, but Duke Zhao's aggressiveness made Su Qian a little dissatisfied.
He knew that if he didn't show some deterrent identity, this matter might not end so easily.
Moreover, his identity as a descendant of the royal family has been confirmed, and there are many dangers involved.
If nothing else, just call your two highnesses cousin, this matter is undoubtedly walking on the edge of a knife.
In terms of seniority, it is true, but this man is a prince, and he is also the two most powerful contenders for the prince today.
At this time, sandwiching Su Qi'an in the middle was equivalent to roasting on the fire. Don't think that the two princes seemed to accept it happily.
Maybe he has a new plan for Su Qi'an.
After all, your Majesty is not as simple as he appears.
Only when he got closer did Su Qian realize that Su Xuanyong was not a mediocre person at all, but a master of the imperial power.
.
Just now, Su Xuanyong had already made up his mind about the punishment for Zhao Guogong and had to leave it to Su Qi'an.
To put it bluntly, it was just to test Su Qi'an's temperament. If he was really stupid, Zhao Guogong would be severely punished.
I'm afraid, Su Qi'an's royal family has also come to an end. Only now does Su Qi'an truly understand what it means to accompany a king like a tiger.
You have to be careful with every word you say. If you say the wrong word, you will be doomed the next second.
Although the pressure is great, Su Qi'an is by no means a white rabbit who can be manipulated by others.
Once his life was endangered, even the royal family would dare to fall out with Su Qian.
What he wants to know most now is what the Emperor of Great Liang, his so-called uncle, thinks of him.
Next, we can only take one step at a time.
Amidst the beautiful dance music, the banquet reached its climax. Everyone's face was filled with a strong sense of drunkenness, as if they were intoxicated.
At this time, Su Qian, who had had a few glasses of wine, suddenly said something to Su Xuanyong.
Su Xuanyong nodded with a smile and said, "Well, it's rare for Qi An to be so motivated, so I agreed to this."
Then he waved, the dance music on the field stopped, and Su Xuanyong's hearty voice sounded.
"Instructions, Qi'an will study at the Hanlin Academy and receive a bachelor's degree from the Hanlin Academy. Master, I will be able to recruit a good young talent for the Hanlin Academy this time. Master, please cherish it."
Wenxuan, who was named, was a little stunned, but quickly recovered and said to Su Xuanyong.
"Everything is as your Majesty said." After saying that, he looked deeply at Su Qi'an, with a playful look in his eyes.
Strangely enough, after this banquet, after Zhao Guogong made such a fuss, nothing went wrong again.
It was basically finalized, and the banquet was held for a long time, from day to night.
Su Xuanyong's cheeks were slightly red, and he said to everyone present, "Well, I am happy with today's banquet. Well, I am too drunk, so I will go ahead and continue."
"I'll be waiting to see you off your Majesty." Everyone said one after another.
Su Xuanyong stood up and was supported by two chamberlains. After leaving for a while, his voice rang out.
"Pray for peace, let's go for a walk in the back garden with the others to relieve our drunkenness."
