Emperor Zhenguan

Chapter 647

The Qinghe Cui family is arrogant and arrogant, while the Boling Cui family is low-key and has a good development prospect.

Compared to the Qinghe Cui family who has been suppressing him all the time, the Boling Cui family's children are very smart.When the Tang Dynasty was established, the clan sent people to serve the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty.

Cui Mingan, the current governor of Songzhou, was originally the magistrate of Liquan County in the former Sui Dynasty. When Li Yuan led his troops into Guanzhong, Cui Mingan resolutely surrendered. Shandong Road appeases the deputy envoy.

Chang'an, Cui Mansion.

Cui Mingan had been an official outside before and had no mansion in Chang'an, so he could only live in the mansion of his brother Cui Dunli during the Chinese New Year.

This time, Cui Renshi, a doctor of the Ministry of Minbu, will celebrate the New Year with them.

The three of them sat in the study room, hugging the fur and sitting around the stove, feeling very uncomfortable.

"You really enjoy yourself in Chang'an." Cui Mingan took a sip of the sugar-sweetened milk tea, feeling extremely comfortable all over.

Cui Renshi and Cui Dunli looked at each other and chuckled.

"Brother, don't say that. Your Majesty has praised you so much when you return to Beijing to report on your duties. I'm so envious of you." Cui Dunli said with a smile.

Cui Mingan waved his hands and said, "After all these years, Li Shuliang has been the prime minister, so there is nothing to envy."

I think he was also a close minister of the late emperor back then, but now he is just the governor of Songzhou. The group of people he surrendered with him are now high officials in the central government. He really doesn't think he has anything to be proud of.

"There is always a chance." Master Cui Ren said: "I dare not say that I can see through His Majesty's personality, but I do understand a little bit. As long as you are loyal to Your Majesty and have the ability, you will be able to go higher and higher sooner or later."

Cui Mingan nodded and said, "I hope so."

Immediately afterwards, he asked: "By the way, how is the Qinghe Cui family doing now?"

Hearing this, Cui Dunli said disdainfully: "It's just an arrogant person who thinks of himself as noble."

"That's the best way." Cui Minqian said, "I hope they can stay upright forever."

Hearing this, the three laughed happily.

In a peaceful and lively atmosphere, Datang bid farewell to the fourth year of Zhenguan and officially entered the fifth year of Zhenguan.

Tai Chi Hall Grand Court Meeting.

The prime ministers summed up the gains and losses of the four years of Zhenguan, looked forward to the future of the five years of Zhenguan, and set a major development plan for this year. All provinces, ministries, temples, roads, prefectures, and counties must meet the work performance standards set by the imperial court this year.

Afterwards, Fu Yi went to Shu and asked monks and nuns to worship their parents, and the emperor agreed.

Speaking of which, Fu Yi was considered as the number one strange person in the imperial court, holding monks and priests all day long, and he didn't know how these people provoked Fu Yi.

Immediately afterwards, Zongzheng Shaoqing and Jing Wang Li Xiaogong walked out of the ranks and said: "I would like to report to your majesty, the chief of the Siyi vassals has surrendered, and I ask your majesty to perform the ceremony of conferring on Zen to show the prosperity of our dynasty."

Wei Zheng, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, came out and objected: "Your Majesty, I have not long been recuperating in the dynasty, and I have just escaped from the quagmire of disasters. If I enshrine Zen, it will waste the people and waste money. I think it is extremely inappropriate."

Li Xiaogong said: "It can be kept simple."

"How to keep it simple?" Wei Zheng asked back: "Since ancient times, emperors have spent incalculable amounts of money on enshrining Zen. If you keep it simple, how can you show your majesty's martial arts. Your Majesty, I think it is not appropriate to enshrine Zen at this time."

Wei Zheng did not deny the emperor's martial arts prosperity, but he felt that Feng Chan cost too much money and food, and it was not worth it at all.With this money, it is better to take care of the people.

The generals naturally felt that Feng Chan was good, so many people supported Li Xiaogong, while civil servants strongly opposed it.

After arguing for a while, there was no result.

Li Zhiyun said: "Let's talk about Feng Chan in the future, it's not the time yet."

He neither likes nor dislikes Feng Chan, so it's not like he has to go.Now that the situation in Datang is finally on the right track, he will naturally not increase the burden on the people at this time.It's not worth wasting money just for an empty name.

On this point, he agrees with Wei Zheng.

Seeing the emperor's reluctance, Li Xiaogong naturally did not dare to persuade him.

Afterwards, Li Shuliang stepped out of the queue and said: "Your Majesty, the late emperor's youngest son is gradually growing up. Your Majesty is the elder brother. Please make him king and send him to the country."

The state here is different from the state in the former Han Dynasty.

In the pre-Han period, especially during the time of Emperor Xiaojing, the country was the real country, and the royal family named Liu was granted the title of king, and he went to a local town to serve as the screen fan of the Han Dynasty.

Since the former Han Dynasty, the clan kings have been in the country. In fact, they are more likely to be released for the elderly, or the king will take his mother and concubine to the local area for the elderly.These great kings will have a title in the local area, such as the governor, but basically they have no power and can only live by collecting rent.

Moreover, without the emperor's order, these kings cannot return to Beijing without authorization, otherwise they will break the law.

In fact, to put it bluntly, it is the emperor and the courtiers. The current imperial palace can only live in the emperor and his concubines and children. The sons of the first emperor, sorry, I can only let you go out to beg for food.

Of course, if the emperor loves a certain younger brother very much, he can also decree to keep this younger brother in Chang'an.

Or, talented children of the royal family can also join politics and the army. There are actually not many restrictions on this.

Compared with Lao Zhu's family, the children of Lao Li's family live relatively freely.

In history, Lao Li had twenty-two sons, but in this time and space, Lao Li has only fourteen sons.Because of the ten thousand year palace change in the sixth year of Wude, Lao Li was paralyzed in bed, how could he continue to have sons without restraint.

Except for the dead Li Jiancheng, Li Shimin, Li Xuanba, Li Yuanji, and the enthroned emperor Li Zhiyun, there are still nine sons left.

They are Li Yuanjing, the sixth son born to Concubine Mo, Li Yuanchang, the seventh son born to Concubine Sun, Li Yuanli, the eighth son born to Guo Jieyu, Li Yuanjia, the ninth son born to Yuwen Zhaoyi, Li Yuanze, the tenth son born to Wang Cairen, and eleven sons born to Zhang Baolin. Li Yuanyi, Li Yuangui, the twelfth son of Zhang Meiren, Li Feng, the thirteenth son of Yang Meiren, and Li Yuanqing, the fourteenth son of Liu Jieyu.

Originally in history, Concubine Yin De and Zhang Jieyu both gave birth to sons for Lao Li, and it was quite early, but now it is different.

Concubine Yin De followed Li Zhiyun early, and Zhang Jieyu did not give birth to Lao Li's son, and due to the change of the Wannian Palace, Lao Li only had fourteen sons, and only ten are still alive.

Among them, many of Li Zhiyun's younger brothers have been crowned king by Lao Li.For example, Li Yuanjing was named King Zhao, Li Yuanchang was named King Lu, Li Yuanli was named King Zheng, Li Yuanjia was named King Song, Li Yuan was named King Peng, and Li Yuanyi was named King Teng.These are all sealed by old Li, not by Li Zhiyun at all. Li Zhiyun hasn't given any of his sons kings until now.Those sons with king titles were also canonized by Lao Li back then.

Li Shuliang mentioned this matter because there were several troubles in the clan.Looking at the emperor, he doesn't even want to make his son king, so what about the others?

The clans couldn't sit still, and united to put pressure on Li Shuliang, that's why Li Shuliang played today.

Regarding this matter, Li Zhiyun is very disgusted, he hates those guys who eat dry food.

Moreover, among this group of brothers who eat dry food, there are still a few who like to make trouble in history.

But don't confer the title on the younger brother, people will say that the emperor is mean and ungrateful, as the eldest brother, he is unwilling to take care of the younger brother, it is simply heartless.

Words are scary.

Originally, in his idea, the children of the royal family should rely on their own ability to obtain the title, but now it is obviously not possible, this way will not work.

If Li Zhiyun wants to implement this rule now, the clan will definitely go to the Xiandi Temple and cry.

not the right time yet.
