"Just follow your instructions!" After hearing Lu Chen's request, Li Yuan nodded and looked at Li Suli, "I know that Li Aiqing is dedicated to serving the public, so you must be careful during this trip to Lujiazhuang! I'm waiting for your memorial. !" Li Yuan looked at Li Suli and warned.
"I obey your Majesty's will!" After Li Suli saluted Li Yuan, he turned to look at Lu Chen and continued, "Tomorrow I will go to Mr. Lu's Lujiazhuang. I hope Mr. Lu will not do anything to show off his faults!" Li Suli's face Looked at Lu Chen seriously.
"Don't worry Li Yushi, I have never disdained this! If it is, it is, if it is not, it is not!" Lu Chen smiled slightly and looked at Li Suli and said.
Seeing that the matter was settled in this way, Li Shushen, the Minister of Justice, who was sitting among the civil servants, was relieved. When Li Suli sent his son to his home yesterday, Li Shushen asked Li Suli why he was like this, and Li Suli didn't say anything at that time. He concealedly told Li Shushen about today's plan. At that time, Li Shushen was also shocked by his cousin.
As the Minister of Justice, he knew more about the affairs of the DPRK than his elder brother. Not to mention other princes, the Chang'an County Duke alone was scary enough. The destruction of the gate of Zheng Shanguo's house was still fresh. In front of me, he was from the Zheng family and was the Minister of Rites of the current dynasty. Lu Chen didn't give any face and directly demolished the door. His elder brother was still only the eighth-rank inspection censor, even if he was about to be promoted to the rank of the current His Majesty. "Shi Yushi" is just a sixth-grade official, how can he compare with the "notorious" Lu Chen.
Not to mention his brother, even he, the minister of punishment, was not good enough in front of these people. At that time, Li Shushen had advised his brother that even if he wanted to gain fame, he should not risk his life!
However, he is also aware of his brother's temper. He has a stubborn temper and is upright. Of course, if it weren't for this, Li Yuan probably wouldn't have taken such an important position as Shi Yushi. It was given to his brother, and Li Shushen could only promise Li Suli to do his best to protect the Li family. As for his brother who wanted to do this, he could only wish for happiness after that.
Seeing Lu Chen's attitude towards Li Suli, Li Shushen had a lot of thoughts, but he breathed a sigh of relief and felt relieved. As for the other officials of the aristocratic family, they looked at Lu Chen with some surprise, obviously surprised by Lu Chen's performance. .
It can be said that Lu Chen "does everything" to people like him, ridiculing and extorting all kinds of things. How come he didn't lose his temper when he came to Li Suli's place, and even invited Li Suli to go on an on-site inspection? This is wrong! The script shouldn't be like this!
Especially those aristocratic families who came up with this idea and "passed the knife" to Li Suli, all had a feeling of depression and depression, which was so uncomfortable that it even felt like a fist hitting cotton.
"Brother Lu Xian, why do you feel that you are a little different today?" Lu Chen returned to his position and sat cross-legged again. Cheng Yaojin leaned over slightly and asked in a low voice.
"What's the difference? I'm still me!" Lu Chen looked at Cheng Yaojin with some confusion and asked.
"That's not right! According to your previous temper, shouldn't you try to bully him?" Cheng Yaojin looked at Lu Chen and continued to ask.
"Brother Cheng, you seem to have misunderstood Mr. Lu!" Hearing Cheng Yaojin's words, Lu Chen burst out laughing, "Don't you have to look at who the other person is when trying to challenge me? Such an upright official is a member of the court. There are few people in the hall. This kind of official is the person that the Tang Dynasty needs. I am trying to squeeze out the people from the aristocratic family, but because there are too many people, he is not enough, and there is not enough for him. What they have in their hands is the people's fat and the people's anointing, and I don't care about it. Who are they going to deal with?" Lu Chen whispered to Cheng Yaojin.
"What Brother Lu Xian said is true!" Before Cheng Yaojin could say anything, Qin Qiong on the side nodded directly, agreeing with Lu Chen's words.
"Those people from the aristocratic families all look like dogs. Behind their backs, they all have the virtue of catching a toad and urinating. If I don't deal with them, who will deal with them! They prey on the common people, so I will capture them!" Lu Chen glanced at them He looked at Zheng Shanguo and others who were looking towards him on the other side, and said with a sneer.
"Although Lu Xiandi's metaphor is very vivid, it is a bit dirty!" After hearing Lu Chen's words, Chai Shao turned his head and said with a smile. After all, talking about these topics in this Tai Chi Hall was a bit awkward.
"These are just what Brother Chai feels in his heart! If you really talk about this, those people's hearts are much dirtier than what I'm talking about!" Lu Chen said with a smile, and Lu Chen's words, these people were stunned for a moment. I actually felt speechless.
Next, of course, there was nothing to do with people like Lu Chen. What was left was to listen to the civil and military ministers reporting some things. Lu Chen also felt drowsy after listening to them.
Finally, Chang Bao shouted: "Who still has the original play?"
After Chang Bao finished shouting and waited for a while, no one came out to report. Chang Bao turned around and saluted Li Yuan. The meaning was very clear that there were no more ministers in the court today.
"Yes!" Li Yuan nodded and winked at Chang Bao. Chang Bao waved directly to the outside of the hall. Lin Lang, the eunuch who had been waiting outside the Tai Chi Hall, lifted up his robe and trotted into the Tai Chi Hall. .
"Greetings to Your Majesty!" Lin Lang bowed and saluted when he came under the imperial steps.
Seeing Lin Lang's appearance, all the civil and military officials in the hall looked at Lin Lang with surprise, because Lin Lang's appearance meant that Li Yuan had an imperial edict to announce, so everyone speculated in their hearts that Li Yuan was doing this today. What the Taoist edict was about to say, so all eyes focused on Lin Lang.
Lin Lang respectfully took the yellow silk imperial edict handed to him by Chang Bao with both hands. After saluting Li Yuan, he turned around, faced the ministers, and slowly unfolded the imperial edict. When he saw the content of the imperial edict, Lin Lang was extremely moved. After checking, he glanced directly at Lu Chen. Lin Lang's look naturally did not escape everyone's eyes. Everyone immediately understood that this imperial edict must be about Lu Chen. After Lu Chen felt Lin Lang's eyes, , was also slightly stunned, but he suddenly had a realization in his heart. I am afraid that Li Yuan took the opportunity of this great dynasty to announce his marriage to Li Yanjun.
"Chang'an County Duke Lu Chen, step forward to receive the decree!" Lin Lang looked directly at Lu Chen and announced loudly.
"Your Majesty, Duke of Chang'an County, Lu Chen, accept the decree!" Hearing Lin Lang calling him, Lu Chen could only go out again. After saluting Li Yuan, he saluted the imperial edict in Lin Lang's hand, and then " "It's difficult to do it reluctantly." Di Zhi sat on the ground to receive the order.
"Emperor Shengming said: Today there is Princess Langya, my fourth daughter, a descendant of the Queen Dou family. She is of high status, smart and sensitive since childhood, filial and obedient..." Lin Lang read out the first half of the imperial edict loudly.
From what Lu Chen heard, it was basically Li Yuan praising Princess Langya Li Yanjun for how good she was, how old she was, etc. Simply put, she was at the age for marriage.
"I am very happy to hear that the Duke of Chang'an County, who is of noble character, knowledgeable, well-groomed, and has no family, is a perfect match for the princess. In order to make a beautiful woman, I hereby bring the princess to Lu Chen. The marriage is completed. All the etiquette will be jointly handled by the Ministry of Rites and the Supervisor of the Taishi Bureau, and the marriage will be completed at the right time. The announcement will be made at home and abroad, and the envoys will hear about it! This is it!" Lin Lang continued to read the second half.
Although these civil and military ministers were mentally prepared when they heard about the marriage grant to Lu Chen, they couldn't bear to look at Li Yuan's kind words for Lu Chen in the imperial edict. Even Lu Chen himself felt that his cheeks Hot, mainly because of Li Yuan's words. From Lu Chen's point of view, he just wanted to shout: "That's so damn right!"
The civil servants of the aristocratic families couldn't help but listen to Lin Lang read out the imperial edict, and at the same time they focused their eyes on Lu Chen from Lin Lang. After hearing Li Yuan's words praising Lu Chen, they couldn't help but criticize Lu Chen with their eyes again. .
In their opinion, they can accept this dignified appearance. After all, Lu Chen himself has such a heroic spirit. It is not wrong to say that he is dignified. As for being knowledgeable and talented, these people also admit that after all, Lu Chen always does something special from time to time. Things came out, and the iron-making method contributed by Lu Chen alone can deserve this praise.
The only thing that made these people feel worthy of criticism was the phrase "character is valuable." Cheng Yaojin, Qin Qiong, Chai Shao and others around Lu Chen didn't think there was anything wrong with praising Lu Chen like this. After all, Lu Chen had never I had treated them badly, so I didn't feel anything wrong when I heard Li Yuan praise Lu Chen. I just felt that Li Yuan was a bit self-proclaimed when he praised Lu Chen so lavishly.
But on the contrary, those officials from the aristocratic families did not think that Lu Chen's character was valuable. They even thought that this guy's character was not only a rogue, but also shameless. Therefore, when they heard Li Yuan praising Lu Chen's noble character, they couldn't help but express their gratitude. Qi secretly pouted.
"Your Majesty, Duke of Chang'an County, I accept the edict and thank you!" Lu Chenzhen sat down and respectfully took the marriage edict from Lin Lang's hand. After receiving the edict, Lu Chen stood up and faced Li Yuan again. Give thanks.
"No gift!" Li Yuan smiled and motioned for Lu Chen to forgive him. After Lu Chen thanked him again, he stood up and put the imperial edict in his arms. Those who saw Lu Chen's actions could not help but twitch the corners of their mouths slightly. I'm afraid Lu Chen was the only one who dared to carry the imperial edict so casually into his arms. Li Yuan was obviously not surprised and had no intention of pursuing Lu Chen for his "discourtesy". It was natural that the others didn't say anything when they saw Li Yuan. Just "turn a blind eye".
"Congratulations! Brother-in-law!" When Lu Chen returned to his original position and sat down, Chai Shao came over and shouted "brother-in-law" so affectionately.
"Should we call brother Lu Xiandi Lu's son-in-law from now on?" Cheng Yaojin and others also joked about Lu Chen.
