The duke is male, and the earl is third, neither above nor below. But since Emperor Taizong began to reduce titles, it has become much more difficult to obtain them. Therefore, even the inherited earl is already not low.
But it is a pity that Zhou Han failed to raise his title by one level during the period of holding the title, so when his children inherit it, they will become viscounts.
In addition, the family property has been misappropriated. Although an infant child has the inheritance rights of a viscount, if he only gets a title without family property, I am afraid that the title will not last long.
This should not be what the descendants of the martyrs should have to endure!
After joining the spy, Li Xian sighed and said to Liu Rengui: "Tomorrow's court meeting will be up to you."
Liu Rengui smiled and nodded. In fact, he hated this kind of thing very much. Even if there is no benefit, he will report it to the police.
Yes, there are benefits.
Although it is easy to offend some people by doing this, it can gain the gratitude of more generals in the military.
Soldiers have always been afraid that after spilling blood on the battlefield, there will be no consequences. At the same time, those military generals who attacked the Zhou family will naturally have their own people to clean up the family. Therefore, he does not have to worry about offending others, because the pressure will not fall on him at all.
After confirming that he would report the matter tomorrow, Liu Rengui left in style with the spy.
Li Xian, on the other hand, stayed in Shangshu Province and listened to the lectures on the spot.
When nothing major happens, many documents from the court are just routine reports, and it is rare for a document to be meaningful. Under normal circumstances, when the documents passed by Zhongshu's sect reach Shangshu Province, there are no major problems. Dai Zhide only needs to take a rough look at them and then divide them into six volumes.
Although these documents were not important, Li Xian still took them seriously.
From these documents, we can slowly summarize how the imperial court operates. This is the foundation, and in terms of importance, it is no less important than the memorials of those major events.
After spending the afternoon in Shangshu Province, Li Xian took his leave and returned to the East Palace until the sun set.
As soon as I came out of the lobby of Shangshu Province, I saw Wang Bo and Yao Yuanchong waiting there, one on the left and the other on the right.
After glancing at Yao Yuanchong, Li Xian said directly: "Don't come to Liubu for a walk recently, and prepare yourself in the East Palace. I have decided to send you to a local post. I asked Dai Pushe, and he thought it would be better to send you Being the governor of Yazhou is a good choice, what do you think?"
Yao Yuanchong knew where Yazhou was, so he went to Yazhou to be the governor? This is really no different from exile.
However, he is not stupid, and naturally understands that this is a test that His Highness the Crown Prince has given to him. If I want to truly enter the court, I'm afraid I have to use the governor of Yazhou as a springboard.
When he thought of Yazhou's remoteness, especially its location, Yao Yuanchong felt as if a huge mountain was weighing down on him.
It can be seen that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince really wants to cultivate himself, otherwise he would not specifically look for Dai Pushe to decide where to serve. For a moment, he didn't know whether he should be grateful to His Highness the Crown Prince or...
After thinking for a while, Yao Yuanchong said firmly: "Your Highness, Wei Chen is willing to go to Yazhou to take up his post. Please make arrangements for Wei Chen."
Seeing that Yao Yuanchong hesitated for a long time, but his words were extremely firm, Li Xian couldn't help but smile, patted him on the shoulder and said: "Gu originally wanted to send you to Guannai Road and Hedong Road, which are relatively stable places. However, Gu I believe your talent is not limited to this. The more wild the place, the more valuable your achievements are."
Yao Yuanchong nodded, and after agreeing, he felt a little more relaxed.
The mountain was still pressing on him, but at least he was no longer so afraid.
Nothing is difficult in the world, as long as you work hard, Foolish Old Man can move mountains.
Reaching out and taking a money bag from Li Xian's hand, Li Xian handed it to Yao Yuanchong. Li Xian smiled and said: "We are going to Yazhou, which can be said to be a rough land. Before going, you should have a good time in Chang'an. This is for you alone." Feel free to use the reward, but if it is not enough, you can go to the East Palace account and withdraw it yourself."
Yao Yuanchong knew very well that once he left, he might not be able to get out of such a quagmire for many years. Therefore, he did not refuse the prince's kindness, took the money bag, and left.
Tonight, he plans to stay in Pingkangfang!
Seeing Yao Yuanchong leaving resolutely, Wang Bo took a deep breath, summoned up the courage to raise his hands and asked: "Your Highness, you released Yao Yuanchong to Yazhou. When will you release the ministers as well?"
Glancing at Wang Bo, Li Xian smiled and said: "Gu has no idea of letting you go outside for the time being, so you don't have to worry too much. It can be seen that Yao Yuanchong still feels helpless about Gu's arrangement, so just go and accompany him. .”
During this period, with the efforts of Yao Yuanchong, who already admired Wang Bo, the two successfully became good friends.
Seeing His Royal Highness the Prince relented, Wang Bo bowed and went to chase Yao Yuanchong.
As a friend, he felt both congratulations and regrets for Yao Yuanchong.
This is an opportunity, but it is a bit too difficult.
Knowing that Wang Bo and Yao Yuanchong had a good relationship, Li Xian had to keep it in his heart.
In his opinion, Yazhou is indeed a quagmire. If Yao Yuanchong goes there to serve as governor and performs meritorious service and promotion, everything will be fine. However, even if he fails to succeed, he is not prepared to waste a good talent like this. He will definitely drag him down. Give him a handful.
After stretching, and feeling a little embarrassed about Yao Yuanchong, Li Xian took a walk towards the East Palace.
When he returned to Li Zheng Hall, he found that there was already Fu Rong waiting for him in his bedroom.
Seeing her husband come back, Fang Furong smiled, stood up and said a little embarrassedly: "You have been out for a day, I'm afraid you are tired. Do you want to take a bath first? I will give you a massage. Oh, no, you should use the evening meal At the table, that girl Kong Xinyu specially cooked a pot of porridge for you to soothe your nerves and soothe your worries. It is said to be a secret of the Kong family, so you must give it a try."
He knew that this girl couldn't hold it in anymore and wanted to come over to comfort her, but she didn't know what to do. After all, this feeling of being cared about is quite good.
Li Yi and Cao Jin deserved their punishment, and Li Xian no longer felt any guilt towards them.
As for the nausea, although it is still there, at least it is not to the level of "shocking the mind".
After all, watching those disgusting movies was not in vain. Now, Li Xian is even a little grateful for his original curiosity.
Looking back at Li Yong, Li Yong pointed in the direction of the kitchen. When His Highness nodded, he turned around and left without hesitation, going out and even closing the door.
There were no outsiders in the room. Li Xian reached out and hugged Fang Furong without hesitation, hugged Fang Furong hard twice, then let go and said with a smile: "You don't have to worry about me so much. I went out for a walk today." My son, my mood has improved a lot. Go and ask the servants to prepare the tableware, and we will eat together tonight. After eating, you can stay here for the night."
Seeing that her husband had allowed her to stay overnight, Fang Furong suddenly became happy and hurriedly asked the palace maid to prepare tableware for herself.
Although Kong Xinyu's medicinal porridge contains a lot of herbs, surprisingly, it tastes very good. It can not only cure diseases, but also satisfy appetite.
Of course, Li Xian didn't think he was sick.
After dinner, it was time to take a shower. When Fang Furong also blushed and climbed into the tub, Li Xian suddenly felt that it was not impossible to pretend to be sick...
....
Early the next morning, Li Xian was treated three times a night. He didn't feel too weak, but woke up as usual.
The benefits of practicing martial arts are reflected at this time. The most important thing in martial arts training is the integration of waist and horse. It not only requires the strength of the lower body, but also requires the strength of the waist.
Therefore, Li Xian thought evilly more than once that military generals must be much better than civil servants in this regard. Different from the time of Taizong, in the early days of Taizong's reign, all civil officials in the court were both literary and military. Nowadays, most of the civil servants in the court are scholars, and not all of them have even touched weapons.
While imagining, Li Xian wanted to gently open the two white arms, but Qing Mimi's plan to leave finally failed.
Men have the weakest willpower in the early morning. When Fang Furong woke up, Li Xian pounced on her again and beat her up severely.
However, what he didn't know was that Shangguan Wan'er came to the bedroom early in the morning, prepared a change of clothes, and knelt at the door waiting for the prince to wake up.
However, what was waiting for him was not the prince waking up, but a shameful voice coming from the curtain.
Hearing the blushing voice of the Crown Princess, Shangguan Wan'er couldn't help but cover her face and quickly turned her head in the direction of the door.
After a long time, the wind stopped and the rain stopped.
After walking out of the mosquito net, he saw Shangguan Wan'er sitting on her knees facing the door. How could Li Xian not know that she had listened to the whole process.
It would be outrageous for the dignified prince to blush at this moment. Therefore, Li Xian had to pretend to be as normal, put on his clothes, and sat there waiting for breakfast to be served.
After breakfast, he took a walk towards Daming Palace.
Because I got up early, when I left the Phoenix Gate, I saw carriages passing by the Phoenix Gate.
These are mostly officials of around fourth grade. Their grades are not high enough, their status is not enough, and their background is not enough, so they cannot live in cities such as Changlefang that are close to the imperial city.
The officials all rode in carriages, and Li Xian, the prince on foot, became a dazzling sight on the street.
The grooms of many officials' families also need to rely on their eyesight to earn a living.
Seeing the prince coming out of the Phoenix Gate, he quickly reduced the speed of the car. Not to mention not being able to get close, it would be rude to go past him.
As a result, Li Xian walked in front, followed by a large group of carriages advancing slowly.
When they reached Danfeng Gate, all the coachmen heaved a sigh of relief and woke up their master.
Although today is not a big court meeting, to Li Xian's great surprise, a lot of officials came. With such a scale and complete collection of cultural relics, it can be said that it is enough for a big court meeting.
Seeing the prince coming, the civil and military officials all moved out of the way and bowed their hands in salute.
Amidst the sounds of salutes, Li Xian walked up to Liu Rengui and asked doubtfully: "Why are there so many people here?"
Liu Rengui said with a wry smile: "Weichen originally just informed a few people he knew well to prepare for more help, but somehow it turned into what it is now."
After taking a look at the huge team of civil servants and then the chaotic team of generals, Li Xian knew that today's court meeting would probably be very lively.
The Danfeng Gate opened, and Shi Yushi came out and started to organize the team. Li Xian quickly walked to the side of the general and stood at the front.
There was more than one person who saw the prince's strange movements.
Although there is no explicit rule on where the prince should stand when observing government affairs or standing on duty, the prince has always stood on the side of the civil servants.
However, today, the prince didn't know what was going on, but he stood on the side of the general.
On normal days, the prince might have stood in the wrong position, but today was different. The generals headed by Cheng Wuting, Su Qingjie, Pei Xingjian and others were all wearing rusty armor with sharp knives and axes, which was really obvious.
But the prince just stood over. The meaning behind this behavior is very thought-provoking.
Liu Rengui and Dai Zhide were not curious that the prince would do this. As for Zhang Wenguan, they just took a look and said nothing.
Soon, the team was organized. After receiving the report from Shi Yushi, Li Xian led the large team into Danfeng Gate and walked towards Yanying Hall.
In the Yanying Hall, unlike usual, the emperor had already sat on the throne.
Although the saint appeared early, he still had to bow when he should.
After leading all the officials to bow and salute, Li Xian sat on the side of the general and closed his eyes to rest.
Seeing that the prince sat on the side of the general uncharacteristically today, Li Zhi couldn't help but snickered.
As the emperor, he would naturally know in advance what would happen in today's court meeting.
Nowadays, the days of peace have passed for a long time, and the status of civil servants has a tendency to surpass that of generals.
However, Li Zhi always felt that the status of military generals should be slightly higher than that of civil servants.
Now, what happened to Bo Zhouhan in Wukang County is a good use of the topic.
Everyone who came to attend the court meeting today had heard a little bit of the news, so the court hall was eerily quiet as they waited for someone to light the pile of firewood.
Liu Rengui knew that he was a torch. Seeing that Hao Chujun had his eyes closed and had nothing to say, he stood up, took out the old woman's spy report from his arms, and gave it to Jiang Hao, asking him to take it to the emperor. Then he saluted and said:
"Your Majesty, yesterday an old man of more than eighty years old came to Wei Chen's house with a spy in hand and asked Wei Chen to bring justice to his family. Out of the virtue of respecting the elderly, although Wei Chen was still sleeping, he still I received her. What I presented to you was the old woman's spy report."
"Originally, this kind of spy complaint involving officials should be sent to Dali Temple for filing. However, Wei Chen believes that it is necessary to submit this spy complaint to His Majesty for personal inspection. Therefore, it violates the rules and asks Your Majesty to punish it."
