Emperor Zhenguan

Chapter 845 Canonization of Yi Wang Qing Wang Qi Wang
Nine years of Zhenguan have passed, and Datang has entered the tenth year of Zhenguan.

At the court meeting in the first lunar month, some courtiers praised the emperor for his great martial arts, and that he should enshrine Zen in Mount Tai, but the emperor refused to ignore it.

"You should not repeat the matter of enshrining Zen, and I will not do anything that wastes the people and money."

The courtiers in the Tai Chi Hall looked at each other in blank dismay, but had no choice but to give up this proposal.Based on the achievements made by the emperor, it is entirely possible to enshrine Zen, but since the emperor is unwilling to enshrine Zen, there is no need to keep persuading him.What's more, the reasons for the emperor's refusal made it difficult for them to refute.Not only is it difficult to refute, but also admirable.

The ministers who persuaded the emperor to enshrine Zen naturally hoped to deepen their qualifications and even leave their names in history through such a grand event.This point, Li Zhiyun is very clear.In his opinion, Feng Chan Taishan is indeed a good temptation, but that's all.

The achievements he has made do not need to be recognized by Feng Chan.

In addition to the matter of enshrining Zen, there is also the matter of setting up prefectures and counties in Goguryeo and other places, and dispatching officials to manage them.The Zhengshitang and the Sixth Department have already made a decision on this matter, and now they just take it out and repeat it for confirmation, so it will be over soon.

In addition, Zong Zhengqing and Li Xiaogong invited the emperor to canonize the second and third sons of the emperor, and ordered him to leave the palace to open the mansion.The two princes were of the same age and had reached the age of leaving the palace.

Li Zhiyun didn't refuse either, and made the second son of the emperor, Cheng Yan, the king of Yi, and the third son of the emperor, Cheng Lie, the king of Qing.

One King Yi and one King Qing are completely incomprehensible to the ministers.If it is said that His Royal Highness King An can only be granted the title of King An because of his birth mother's mediocre background and his mediocre aptitude not being taken seriously.Then, the second son and the third son of the emperor, their status as mother and concubine is very precious, so why did they just make a king casually.

You know, the titles of Qin, Jin, Qi and Chu are still vacant. What does His Majesty mean by this?
Could it be that His Majesty the Emperor has decided to make the fourth son the crown prince?
Just when the ministers were thinking wildly, Li Zhiyun said again: "King Wuling has also reached the age of leaving the palace, this time he can be canonized together. Let's canonize the fourth son of the emperor, Zhao, as King Qi."

The voice fell, and the ministers were dumbfounded.

Why can't even the emperor's son get a first-class king title?
Your Majesty, what do you think?

This time, not only a small number of people were confused, but even Xue Shou, Du Ruhui and others were also very puzzled.

Du Ruhui thought about it, and could only think that the sage might not have decided who to be the crown prince, so they were all canonized in this way for later investigation.

Yang Shidao, Minister of Honglu Temple, was originally happy when he heard that the second and third sons of the emperor were canonized as kings, but after Li Chengzhao was canonized as King Qi, he couldn't be happier.

What did the saint think?

This time, no one dared to mention the appointment of the crown prince, because the ministers were very cautious when it came to the crown prince.

After the great dynasty passed, the news that the three princes were canonized as kings to leave the palace and open the mansion spread, but it did not cause much repercussions. Many people even secretly thought that the saint might not plan to take out the four noble titles of 'Qin, Jin, Qi and Chu' Canonized.

Changle Hall.

"The second son of the emperor was canonized as King Yi, the third son of the emperor was canonized as King Qing, and Zhao'er was canonized as King Qi." After hearing the news, Empress Yang read a sentence silently, and said with a wry smile, "Husband, what do you think?"

She is also confused now, she originally thought that the emperor's eldest son canonization as King An was a hint from her husband, but now she is thinking too much.No, or most of the ministers think too much.

Maybe, her husband will continue to investigate several princes.

Right now, she can only comfort herself in this way.

Today's saints are not ordinary kings. In the position of crown prince, even she would not dare to intervene casually, and would even avoid it.

"Where's Zhao'er?"

Yu'er replied: "I heard that His Royal Highness King Qi and His Highness Jin Yang have left the palace."

"Going out of the palace?" Empress Yang frowned lightly, "This child, why is he so ignorant, in such a situation, he still has to go out of the palace to play. When he comes back, I will definitely teach him a lesson!"

Yu'er smiled awkwardly and dared not speak.

Although the harem seems to be peaceful, once the crown prince is involved, it will be a war without gunpowder.

Yongning Hall.

"It seems that your father has not yet decided who he wants to be the crown prince. You still have a chance."

Li Chenglie nodded upon hearing this, "Yes, I know."

"What do you know?" Wei Gui asked.

"My son still has a chance." Li Chenglie replied.

Wei Gui was speechless, and said: "Now that you know, what are you still doing sitting here, go and study."

"Yes." Li Chenglie got up and left.

After he left, Wei Nizi comforted softly: "The fourth son of the emperor is only canonized as King Qi, sister don't need to worry too much."

"Don't worry?" Wei Gui took a deep breath and said solemnly, "It's the last moment now."

There are some things that she doesn't want to share with Wen Nizi.Before this, the sage had already started to teach the three princes in the Ganlu Hall, which was a signal that the sage had already begun to consider the candidate for the prince.

The current canonization is just the beginning.

Lanxiang Hall.

"Little sister greets His Royal Highness Yi Wang." Yun Yang greeted his elder brother lightly, which made Concubine Yang Shu couldn't help but laugh.

Li Chengyan had no choice but to help his little sister up, and said: "Why do you come to bury Tai as a brother, you are still my sister."

Yunyang pouted, and threw himself into Concubine Yang Shu's arms to complain.

"Aniang, my brother said that I am not his sister."

"Your brother has always been stupid, just ignore him." Concubine Yang Shu gently patted her daughter.

Li Chengyan stroked his forehead with a look of helplessness.

The mother and son chatted for a while, and Concubine Yang Shu asked softly, "Cheng Yan, do you have any thoughts about the crown prince?"

Li Chengyan pursed his lips and nodded in agreement, "Yes, I have some ideas. However, my father's requirements are too high. I study with my father. I always don't think carefully about the questions my father asks, and I can't follow them." Father Emperor."

This is what hit him the most. He thought he had studied hard, but before facing his father's question, he always felt that he knew nothing.

But the fourth brother can keep up.

Thinking of Li Chengzhao, Li Chengyan felt very heavy.

Concubine Yang Shu comforted: "Just do your best, don't think too much."

"Yes."

Yunyang asked in a low voice: "Aniang, does brother want to be the crown prince?"

Concubine Yang Shu gently pinched her little nose, "Don't go out and talk nonsense, do you hear me?"

"Well, I won't tell anyone."

"Good boy."

In fact, Concubine Yang Shu didn't think that her son could be registered as a prince.Because her identity was an obstacle, and she didn't see how good her son's aptitude was.

Ganlu Temple.

Li Zhiyun played with the memorial lightly, recalling the expressions of the ministers at the court meeting.

Doubt, puzzlement, difficulty, strangeness, surprise and so on.

"Hey, do you think I will do things according to your wishes?" Li Zhiyun smiled mockingly.

He will not let anyone see his attitude until he is confirmed as the crown prince.When it was time to decide on the canonization of the crown prince, he would make a final decision without giving any room for reverie.

As the crown prince, one must be very cautious and extremely serious.

Once decided, it cannot be changed, otherwise there will be endless troubles.

"King Yi, King Qing, and King Qi, what are they doing?"

"Return to Your Majesty, His Royal Highnesses King Yi and King Qing are both visiting their mothers and concubines, and His Royal Highness King Qi heard that he has gone out of the palace." Gao Liangzhong replied.

out of the palace?

The corner of Li Zhiyun's mouth twitched, this kid is quite savvy.

"Where is King An?"

"His Royal Highness King An is still studying hard in his palace, preparing for the exam."

Li Zhiyun nodded and continued to deal with government affairs at his desk.
