The next day, it was just Yinshi.
The snow stopped and the sky turned dark, but Jiang Yunzhou's bedroom was already brightly lit, and Xiao Huazi's chattering calls could be heard from in front of the bed.
There was nothing he could do. His Highness Ninth was going to court for the first time and he couldn't be late no matter what. Xiao Huazi risked being punished by His Highness and pulled Jiang Yunzhou up from the bed to wash himself.
The dazed Jiang Yunzhou was at the mercy of Xiao Huazi and Ruoyao. He didn't fully wake up until the cold wind bit him when he went out.
The prince of the Jin Dynasty was crowned king, and he had to wait until he was weak to become a vassal. Thinking that he would have to go through this kind of court meeting for four more years, Jiang Yunzhou couldn't help but feel a pain in his head.
No, you have to find a way to escape Kyoto as soon as possible. Whoever wants to see Ling'an City at four in the morning can see it.
Jiang Yunzhou was thinking about countermeasures. Xiao Huazi had already lit a lantern and led him to the square outside Chongzheng Hall.
At this time, there were already a bunch of courtiers standing in groups outside the Chongzheng Hall. Some civil servants were shivering from the cold and tightly wrapped their cloaks outside their court uniforms. The generals looked much more comfortable, chatting and laughing together, and Not much chill.
When Jiang Yunzhou approached, the discussion suddenly became quieter, and they all looked at him with different expressions.
After Wei Wang Jiang Yunsheng saw him, he came over immediately and patted Jiang Yunzhou on the shoulder very familiarly: "Yunzhou, it's your first court meeting, are you nervous?"
Jiang Yunzhou said calmly: "It's acceptable."
King Wei laughed when he saw this, "Come, dear brother, my fourth brother will introduce you to an old minister who is highly respected in my court."
As he spoke, he led Jiang Yunzhou to the eaves of the corridor, pointed to a thin man with white beard and eyebrows next to him, and said, "This is Li Changling, the Minister of Rites, Master Li. He is a veteran of three dynasties, a meritorious minister, and his father." The emperor presided over the succession ceremony and also participated in the compilation of the "Book of Rites of the Great Jin"."
Xun Ling took a step forward, cupped his hands and said, "His Royal Highness the King of Wei is so complimentary. I have met His Highness Ninth Highness. His Highness is really extraordinary. Unfortunately, Qiu Lie is not feeling well and cannot accompany him. It is a pity that he missed His Highness's heroic appearance at the night banquet."
"Haha, there will be many opportunities in the future." Jiang Yunzhou returned the gift, but his reply was not modest.
King Wei and Li Changling were stunned for a moment and looked at each other. They both felt how unique this Ninth Highness was, and immediately laughed loudly.
While they were talking, some more courtiers came over to salute Jiang Yunzhou. Judging from their familiarity with King Wei, most of them should be from King Wei's lineage.
There were also some people who nodded and smiled at Jiang Yunzhou from a distance. After scanning around, he found that most of the people stood in line with King Yu or remained neutral, especially those who were obviously wary of him. They were most likely to be King Yu.
Jiang Yunzhou wrote them down one by one.
Of course, he is not a grudge-bearing person, he just has a photographic memory.
"Could this be His Highness the Ninth Prince? Congratulations!"
Several elderly ministers who looked like they were of high rank in their official uniforms slowly walked up to Jiang Yunzhou and congratulated him with smiles, which made him confused, but he still returned the favor one by one.
After several people finished speaking, they walked away with smiles. At this time, King Yu leaned forward and said, "These are all my father's cabinet ministers. That one is Grand Master Liu, and that is..."
Listening to King Wei's introduction to him one by one, he probably guessed the origin of the congratulations several people said to him.
Presumably, at the court meeting today, the title will be confirmed.
After waiting for a while, a strange voice came from behind Jiang Yunzhou: "Hey, isn't this the ninth brother who stole the show at the night banquet?"
Jiang Yunzhou turned around and saw that the person speaking was none other than the current sixth prince, Prince Kang, Jiang Yunchen. Beside him were several officials from the Ministry of Household Affairs and Prince Yu, Jiang Yunde.
Seeing Jiang Yunzhou's eyes, King Yu's eyes were cold and he let out a cold snort, his eyes full of anger and resentment.
Prince Kang took a step in front of Jiang Yunzhou, his eyes slightly focused: "The snow is slippery, Ninth Brother, look at your feet more, be careful if you stand on the wrong place, it will be serious if you fall!"
Jiang Yunzhou knew that King Kang was implying that he was on the wrong team, so he looked sideways at King Kang and said bluntly: "King Kang, please look at your feet more, in case you fall to your death one day."
King Kang's face darkened for a moment, his brows furrowed: "You!"
"How?" Jiang Yunzhou curled his lips.
If you don't say harsh words, no one will be the same.
He just likes the angry look of others who can't stand him and can't get rid of him.
"All the court officials are here~"
At this time, the voice of the great eunuch Sheng Changchun came slowly. At two o'clock in the morning, the door of Chongzheng Palace finally opened slowly.
Jiang Yunzhou ignored Prince Kang, who was blushing and thick-necked with anger, turned around and strode into Chongzheng Hall.
The Jin Dynasty's court meetings were not actually designed to govern the government. Issues that really needed to be dealt with by the Jin Emperor were mostly reported through memorials and were sorted out by the cabinet ministers of Chui Gong Hall before they were handed over to the Jin Emperor.
The morning court every fifth day is mostly used to promulgate some regulations, or for officials of fourth rank and above to report on some current affairs that have already been concluded.
Jiang Yunzhou knew that the morning meeting might be a bit boring, but after an hour, Jiang Yunzhou found that he had underestimated the boring level of the Jin Dynasty meeting. If he had not known the news about his prince today, he would have fallen asleep while standing.
"Ninth Prince Jiang Yunzhou stepped forward to receive the order~"
Finally, the great eunuch Sheng Changchun sang, and the drowsy Jiang Yunzhou suddenly picked up his energy, strode to the center of the hall, straightened his back, and knelt down solemnly.
Just listen to him say in a high-pitched voice:
"According to the emperor's edict, in view of the fact that the emperor's ninth son Jiang Yunzhou is south-feng Si Xuan, handsome, dedicated to learning, and talented... he is the father's demeanor, and I am the shadow of my sunset. Now I canonize the emperor's ninth son Jiang Yunzhou, and Hong is the king of Qin. The three crowns can be used to build a royal palace, appoint prime ministers and officials, grant ten thousand private troops, feed ten thousand households, and reward one hundred thousand taels of silver and silk... How impressive is it!"
After the eunuch finished reading, the courtiers were in an uproar. Although there were rumors that after the night banquet, the ninth prince Jiang Yunzhou's title was likely to be promoted from prince to prince, but if this exception was made, everyone was still surprised.
"Thank you for your kindness!" Jiang Yunzhou bowed to accept the imperial edict and bowed again. He was in a good mood. The first step of King Xian in the prosperous age has been achieved!
"Congratulations to His Highness King Qin."
After receiving the order and returning to his position, many courtiers around him expressed their congratulations, and Jiang Yunzhou thanked them one by one.
The Qin State also existed in this world, but it was only a small country. Now it only represents the land of Qinhe County in the west. It was the land newly occupied by the Jin State after the Qian State was completely destroyed fifteen years ago. It is connected to the wasteland to the north. To the west is the desert country, which is actually a poor county.
Therefore, although the title 'Qin' was once the title of the country, it was not a respected title. However, before he had negotiated with the Emperor Jin about the title of the city, the Emperor Jin gave him such a royal title. Could it be that there was some deep meaning.
Jiang Yunzhou's eyes couldn't help but glance at the old Jin Emperor on the dragon throne. He only looked at him with a faint smile and couldn't see anything unusual.
Jiang Yunzhou definitely doesn't like places like Qinhe County. He would rather go to Jiangnan Water Town, but he also knows that there is no land left in that place.
But he will definitely not go to Qinhe County. Nothing good will happen in the border area.
It seems that I have to talk to the old man if I have time to decide on the fiefdom as soon as possible, Jiang Yunzhou thought to himself.
After retreating from the court, all the courtiers filed out. When Jiang Yunzhou was about to leave, he heard a rich and old voice calling him.
Xun Sheng raised his eyes and saw that the person calling him was Duke Chu Tianyao.
