"Queen, when the funeral is over, order the Ministry of Internal Affairs to demolish the palace."
Recalling Ming Chongyan's statement about "fire evil", Li Zhi changed the word "burn" to "dismantled".
The Queen of Heaven agreed, and then said to Ming Chongyan: "Master Ming, you have to know that although I and His Majesty love you very much, you have no real political achievements after all, so now you can only be a literary scholar in Prince Ji's Mansion. . But don’t worry, in two years’ time, the saint will definitely give you a promotion. Before that, the two of us can only compensate you in terms of property.”
As soon as the Queen of Heaven finished speaking, the female officer Chunmei came over holding a plate.
The naked things on the plate were only covered by red silk. However, looking at Chunmei's overwhelmed look, she knew that the things on this plate were not simple.
Faced with the reward on this plate, he didn't even look at it and didn't care.
Cupping his hands, Ming Chongyan said sternly: "Sage, Queen of Heaven, and humble ministers know the friendship between you two. I have done a little merit, but it is not worth mentioning. This position in Prince Ji's literature is enough."
Seeing what Ming Chongyan said, Li Zhi nodded with satisfaction.
Although he is the emperor, he cannot pamper a minister too much. If Ming Chongyan is given a chance to rise to the sky, it will not be pampering, but flattery. The faster you get up, the easier it is to fall down. He, the aloof emperor, is too clear about things in the court.
Pointing to the plate, Li Zhi said: "Take the reward given to you. If you feel sorry for it, show it to King Yong. Succession of heirs is a big deal. How can it be affected! For so many years, he and the princess have not had any children born. In the past, he He is the vassal king, so naturally I am too lazy to ask, but he will soon become the prince, and having an heir is a top priority."
Seeing that the saint mentioned this matter, Ming Chongyan smiled and said: "Your Majesty, there is no need to worry. Your Highness, King Yong, is blessed with profound blessings. After becoming the prince, he will be protected by your dragon power and will be immune to all evil. Of course." , you have to choose more concubines for him. After the Zhang family was deposed, King Yong now only has one concubine. How can this be done? If you want to have more children, you must first have more wives and concubines."
Choosing a concubine?
Li Zhi naturally looked at the Queen. The Queen should be the one to preside over such a matter.
The Queen of Heaven said helplessly: "Everyone, it's not because he didn't choose his concubine, it's because he insisted on waiting until after the big funeral. You also know that Hong'er is performing the funeral ceremony of the emperor, and even a virtuous son must observe all the etiquette. It will only take a day.”
Li Zhi said helplessly: "That's all, that's it. He is still a younger brother after all, and some things must be followed by rules."
After sighing, Li Zhi stood up and said, "Master Ming, I won't send you off."
It is already rare for the emperor to stand up and see him off.
But Ming Chongyan was not proud. Instead, he bowed his hands and bowed before turning around and leaving. Although the emperor once said that he was willing to treat each other with family etiquette, he also told him that there was no need for such complicated etiquette in private. However, Ming Chongyan knew very well that these instructions were just words. You still have to follow what you should follow.
....
Because he was thinking hard about the emperor's intention, Li Xian did not go back to the side hall, but leaned on the railing of the palace to think. From his position, he happened to see Ming Chongyan walking out of the palace door holding a reward.
To be honest, Ming Chongyan, who is only twenty-nine years old now, looks like a talented person, and with his pale face, he will definitely become a young star in future generations. No one will believe his true age.
Seeing that he was wearing official robes instead of eunuch uniforms, Li Xian couldn't help but ask Li Yun, "Who is this man?"
After taking a look, Li Yun lowered his voice and said: "Your Highness, remember, this person cannot be provoked. No matter the saint or the Queen, they all rely on him. This person has medical skills. The saint's wind disease was alleviated by him. The most important thing is that he is also good at alchemy. On April day, he presented the saint with cold melons that can only be seen in summer. Your Majesty was very surprised, so he was awarded the official position of literature in Prince Ji's Palace."
Offering watermelon in April? Is this considered magical?
Li Xian felt that if he was determined to be a magician, he would definitely be able to prosper in this era.
You know, when the school built a new teaching building, the office area was too large, so the history teacher and the chemistry teacher lived in the same room. When there is nothing to do, it has become normal for the history teacher to tell historical stories to the chemistry teacher, and the chemistry teacher to tell the history teacher interesting chemical reactions.
However, Li Xian still gave up the plan of destroying people's jobs because after thinking about it, he finally remembered who this Ming Chongyan was. The main reason why Prince Zhanghuai and Wu Zetian turned against each other.
It was because Ming Chongyan told Wu Zetian that "the prince is unworthy of succession, and the appearance of the British king is similar to that of Taizong" and that "the prime minister is the most noble", which caused Prince Zhang Huai to hate him and become even more disgusted with Wu Zetian.
After this guy was killed by bandits, because the truth could not be traced, all suspicions were pointed at Prince Zhang Huai.
The fourth year of Yifeng and the second year of Tiaolu were only one year apart. Ming Chongyan died in the first year, and Wu Zetian sent people to expose Prince Zhanghuai's rebellion in the second year. It would be unreasonable to say that there is no connection here.
As for the unofficial rumors that Wu Zetian had an affair with this guy, Li Xian still didn't believe it. Li Zhi was still alive after all. But Li Xian believed that Wu Zetian coveted his beauty. Because this guy is so handsome that he feels ashamed in comparison.
Once you provoke such a weird guy, you don't know how much trouble it will be.
but....
After taking a look at the main hall, Li Xian smiled, no longer thinking about the reason why the empress called him to talk nonsense, and returned to the side hall.
There is no doubt that there must be a connection between him being called and this guy coming out. Most likely, it was Li Zhi who wanted this guy to see his face or something.
Yes, only Li Zhi.
Li Xian dared to believe that Wu Zetian and this guy were in the same group. If Ming Chongyan's advice had nothing to do with the Queen's attitude, he would have ripped off his head and kicked it with a ball.
In the original history, because the relationship was not harmonious, this guy would follow Wu Zetian's ideas.
But now history has changed. At least for now, Wu Zetian is quite satisfied with herself.
Under such conditions, this guy is probably going to say something nice.
They are just people who live on the wall. Ignoring them is the best choice.
After stretching, Li Xian was suddenly full of expectations for tomorrow.
Yao Yuanchong appeared, and so did Ming Chongyan.
It is now the second year of the Yuan Dynasty, and the reign name will soon be changed to Yifeng.
As for Di Renjie, it was Yifeng Nian who was promoted to a capital official and became the Prime Minister of Dali Temple.
Although the Cheng of Dali Temple is only a junior official from the sixth rank, it is not difficult to see him.
Traveling back to the reign of Emperor Gaozong, the person he looked forward to meeting the most was Di Renjie.
