Unparalleled Concubine - v2 Chapter 1141
Chapter 1141 Ask for the king!
The time is on the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month in the fifth year of Yuanzhao, which means that the year will come to an end.
In two days, the Great Jin will change to the Yuan, and the two words Yuan Zhao will become a thing of the past.
As for the era name of the new dynasty, after consultation between Shangshutai and the Ministry of Rites, it was set as “Yankang”.
In just a few short months, the situation in the capital has been turned upside down. After the Southwest Group entered the capital, it is rapidly grabbing power in the capital. The more critical positions in the capital are either from the Southwest Group or have completely fallen to the southwest. .
During this period of time, Li Xin met with the six ministers and nine ministers of the imperial court, as well as a number of civil servants, in the Jinganhou mansion. As long as they were of the fourth rank or above, they had basically been to the Jinganhou mansion, and 80% of these people made it clear that they would. Allegiance to the Marquis of Jing’an, the remaining 10% or 20%, although there is no clear statement, but it has not become a big obstacle.
It was snowing heavily in the capital.
Li Xin got up early, put on his first-class court clothes, and waited early at the gate of Weiyang Palace.
Originally, the Dajin court was a three-day dynasty and a ten-day dynasty. Any major events on weekdays were reported to each other, and then the Shangshutai or the emperor made a decision, so there was no need to come to the Weiyang Palace every day for “meetings”, but because of the approaching New Year’s Eve , The income and expenditure accounts of the imperial court must be calculated clearly, and there are some issues related to policy, which must be discussed together. Therefore, the Weiyang Palace has a meeting almost every day these days.
The ignorant little emperor just sat on the throne in a daze, acting as a clay statue.
But since the Southwest Army entered the city, Li Xin never went to court, and this time he officially went to court.
This imperial master of the dynasty, the Grand Governor of the Grand Governor’s House, stood at the gate of Weiyang Palace with his eyes closed. Except for officials from the Southwest Group like Zhao Jia, no one else dared to approach within five meters of Li Xin. The aura that no one is near.
Zhao Jia, who was wearing a third-grade court uniform, but was in charge of the center, stood behind Li Xin with a smile, and said with a smile: “Why did the Governor-General come to court in person today, is there something important?”
Li Xin shook his head slightly: “It’s not a big deal, but it has a lot to do with me. I still need to talk about it in person, otherwise I will disrespect my elders.”
Zhao Jia’s eyes shifted. Although he didn’t understand what Li Xin meant, he didn’t ask any further questions. He just stood quietly behind Li Xin and waited for the Weiyang Palace to open.
Soon, Chen Shi arrived, the main gate of Weiyang Palace opened wide, and the **** in the hall sang loudly: “Hundred officials enter the hall.”
Li Xin walked at the front, and all the civil and military officials followed behind him, and walked into the main hall of Weiyang Palace.
The young emperor, surrounded by the **** Xiao Huai and others, entered the Weiyang Palace. Xiao Huai, dressed in red, stood beside the throne. He first glanced at the civil and military officials as usual, and when he saw the figure of Li Xin, This big **** who had been a young prisoner in the palace for more than ten years and finally put on red clothes, shuddered fiercely.
The emperor on the throne also saw Li Xin who was standing at the front. He stood up in a panic and wanted to speak, but he didn’t know what to say, so he could only sit down again.
The court meeting started soon. The young emperor coughed and asked directly, “Taifu has been recuperating at home these days, and I went to the palace in person today, I don’t know if it was…?”
Li Xin held the chao wat in his hand, took a step forward, bowed slightly to the emperor, and said, “Your Majesty, minister…I have something to write to.”
When he said these words, the civil and military officials in Weiyang Palace, including the emperor, were a little puzzled.
Now the military and politics of the capital are in the hands of you, General Li, if you have anything to do, just order it, why bother running over and pretending to be this coercive?
Xin Tianzi was stunned for a while, and then quickly said: “Teacher but said that, … I can do anything.”
Li Xin bowed slightly to the emperor, then took out a memorial book from his sleeve, held it in his hand, and said solemnly to the emperor: “My first teacher, Lord Ye, has made great achievements in battle throughout his life, and has made countless contributions to the Great Jin. The land in Jiangbei was opened up by our ancestors, and the old man died of illness in Taikang eight years ago, but so far, there is no posthumous seal.”
Governor Li said in a low voice, “This minister believes that, based on the merits of his predecessors, he should at least be awarded the county king.”
Li Xin’s remarks are actually not a problem at all. With Ye Sheng’s credit, not to mention that after death, he should be crowned king before his death, but the great ancestor of the Jin Dynasty had ancestral instructions, and non-Ji clan could not be crowned king, so old man Ye With the credit of Splashing the sky, it is only a Chen Guogong.
Not only that, because of this ancestral training, the position of the duke has reached the top, and even after his death, the imperial court did not give him a posthumous title.
The descendants of the Ye family have always been a little unhappy about this matter, but no one dared to disobey the ancestral teachings of Taizu, and no one dared to speak. As Ye Sheng’s only disciple, Li Xin raised it at the court, and naturally It is more than appropriate.
As soon as these words came out, needles could be heard in the Weiyang Palace.
On the surface, Li Xin was asking for a title for Ye Guogong, but this matter had other meanings behind the scenes.
The Emperor Taizu said that non-Ji clan cannot be called king. Now that you, Ye Sheng, become king, and you set a precedent, will Chen Sheng be king and Zhao Sheng to be king in the future?
You Li Changan, will you be king again? !
If it was in the Taikang Dynasty or the Yuan Zhao Dynasty, even if Li Xin was already a very high-ranking official, if he said this, he would definitely be scolded and even chased by the civil servants, but now… there is no such thing in the entire Weiyang Palace. If a person dares to speak, the needle drop can be heard.
No one dared to stand up and say “Taizu Zuxun”.
Because everyone knew very well, they annoyed this Jing’an Houfu, not to mention Taizu Zuxun, even Taizu’s tablet may be directly overturned!
Seeing that no one dared to speak, Li Xin frowned slightly, looked left and right, and asked, “Do you think that the merits of your predecessors are not enough to be the king of Ningling County?”
“Nature deserves it.”
No one said a word, but the right servant of Shang Shu, Zhao Jia, stood up quickly, holding the chao wat in his hand, and said: “Ye Lao Guogong fought for eight years and helped me to dominate the world. This is an extraordinary feat. No matter what the reward is, it is not an exaggeration.”
The young Saisuke looked back at the civil and military officials in the court, and said with a smile, “Do you say yes or no?”
Li Xin and Zhao Jia both spoke, and these officials in the court naturally understood what they meant, and immediately echoed: “What Zhao Xiang said is that due to Ye Guogong’s military deeds, he should have been awarded the title of the county king long ago. It’s the court’s fault that it has forgotten about it.”
A bit thicker-skinned, and said directly: “A county king, he must have wronged Lord Ye!”
“Ye Lao Guogong has made outstanding achievements in the history books, so he naturally deserves to be a county king.”
The ministers have said so, the new emperor, who has no right to speak, naturally will not have any comments, the emperor, who is only twelve years old, said crisply: “In this case… let the Ministry of Rites handle this. It’s over.”
A matter of blatant disobedience to the teachings of the Great Ancestor was done without hindrance.
…
After the dynasty was dispersed, Zhao Jia followed behind Li Xin, walked out of Weiyang Palace, and said with a smile: “This is a clever move by the governor, firstly, it can test the attitude of the officials in the court, secondly, it can also let the Laye family go into the water, and more It can pave the way for the future.”
Li Xin stopped, looked back at Zhao Jia, and shook his head slightly.
“Brother You’an is wrong.”
“Today, I wanted to do it for a long time.”
“Master Ye has been suffocated for half his life. As a disciple, he will naturally fight for him to come back when he can. Whether he can see it or not, it is all right.”
“Other things, I didn’t think about it.”
