God-level Consort of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 104
Hearing this, Li Er suddenly snorted and said, "In my opinion, Du He is still looking forward to this. You didn't see the way he flirted with Li Zhi just now, how could he look like he could be a minister. Looking at his behavior, it seems I never thought about becoming an official in the court."

Empress Changsun also had some headaches when she heard the words: "The matter of Du He and Li Zhi must be handled properly, otherwise, I'm afraid something will go wrong!"

Li Er nodded: "Of course I know, Maid Guanyin, let's not talk about it, it's getting late, you and I should rest!"

As he spoke, he stepped forward and hugged Empress Changsun.

Empress Changsun blushed instantly.

……

Early in the morning.

As soon as Du He got up from the bed, he heard old Fu knock on the door outside and shouted: "Young master, get up quickly, someone is coming from the palace."

Du He opened the door, and saw Old Fu saying at the door: "Master, you should finish washing and dressing up, go outside and have a look. A steward has come from the palace and said he wants to see you."

Du He quickly finished grooming and came to the living room.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw a short and fat eunuch sitting on the table drinking tea, and he was full of praise for the tea in Lai Guogong's mansion.

Old Fu waited on him, not daring to say a word.

When Du He stepped forward, the eunuch stood up hastily: "Slave Ximen Qing, according to His Majesty's instructions, I would like to ask Mr. Du to go to the Tai Chi Hall immediately to listen to the seal."

Du He asked: "So it's Director Ximen, why have I never seen you?"

Ximen Qing said modestly: "The slave works under the name of Manager Zhao, and usually only takes care of His Majesty's daily life. As for the one who serves in the Tai Chi Hall, it is Manager Zhao."

"I see," Du He nodded, "Old Fu!"

As soon as Old Fu heard Du He's call, he hurriedly took out two ingots of silver and handed them to Ximen Qing.

Immediately, Ximen Qing's face beamed with joy, and he said, "Young Master Du, how embarrassing this is."

Du He waved his hand: "Director Ximen, you're welcome. I'm really sorry to ask you to come to the house early in the morning. I originally planned to invite Director Zhao to have a meal, but His Majesty is still waiting for me, why don't you choose another day."

Ximen Qing said with a smile: "Young Master Du is really considerate, then you can follow me immediately."

Going out of the door, Ximen Qing thought to himself, everyone said that Du He was arrogant, but when I saw him today, he was not like that, he was thoughtful and generous, even more generous than many high officials in the court.

Thinking about it, he became acquainted with Du He.

After all, he was just an eunuch next to the emperor, and Du He was not only the son of the prime minister, but also the son-in-law of Princess Runan.

However, when Du He asked His Majesty Ximen Qing why he wanted to confer the reward, Ximen Qing also looked confused.

"Young Master Du, maybe His Majesty wants you to be an official in the imperial court because His Majesty saw you are so talented. If this is the case, then Young Master Du is the youngest person in our Tang Dynasty to be appointed as an official in the imperial court. You should congratulate Young Master Du. It's gone." Ximen Qing said sincerely.

Du He had no choice but to become an official in the court, wouldn't that kill his life?

Not long after, Du He followed Ximen Qing to the Tai Chi Hall.

At this time, the morning has not yet come to an end.

Ximen Qing went straight into the main hall and reported to Li Er: "Report to Your Majesty, Du He will bring it here."

Li Er immediately stopped what he had just discussed, and said, "Xuan!"

Only then did Ximen Qing go outside and bring Du He in.

Seeing Du He walking in swaggeringly, all the civil and military officials in the court showed surprise expressions.

Judging by His Majesty's appearance, it seems that he is not reprimanding Du He.

But what is this kid doing in Tai Chi Hall?
Not to mention the others, even Du Ruhui looked dazed.

Cheng Yaojin leaned over to Lao Du's side and asked in a low voice, "Old Du, what's wrong with your little bastard again?"

Du Ruhui shook his head: "Since the case of the furniture factory was over, this kid has been sleeping at home all day, what trouble can he cause?"

Cheng Yaojin rubbed his chin: "That's strange, why did His Majesty suddenly announce him to the palace, don't worry, no matter what happens later, I will speak for him, old Cheng."

Du Ruhui felt helpless when he heard this.

It seems that the relationship between Du He and Cheng Yaojin is even better than that between himself and Cheng Yaojin.

How did he know that Du He planned to make his old Cheng have another daughter-in-law immediately, and Lao Cheng was very satisfied with Wei Youran.

At this time, Du He had already walked to the front and saluted: "Du He has seen His Majesty!"

Li Er said: "No courtesy! Du He listens to the seal!"

wow.

The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were in an uproar.

When His Majesty called Du He, it was not a reprimand, but a reward?

Then I saw Zhao Yang took out the imperial edict, ready to announce it.

Du He hurriedly shouted: "Your Majesty, wait a minute, I have something to say."

Li Er asked curiously: "Du He, what do you have to say?"

Du He asked: "Excuse me, Your Majesty, what is this reward about?"

What he is most worried about is that Li Er's brain is getting hot, and if he is given a half-job, and he has to deal with those headaches all day long, then his own industry will still develop a woolen thread.

Li Er seemed to have seen through Du He's thoughts long ago, and said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, I never make things difficult for others."

Said and waved his hands.

Zhao Yang immediately stepped forward, opened the imperial edict, and read: "Men Xia: Du He, the son of Du Ruhui, the servant of the door, offered to offer the method of making explosives, which can be used as a sharp weapon for siege, which can improve the combat power of the Tang army and reduce the number of soldiers. The casualties are really a great achievement, so Du He was made the son of Lantian County, from the fifth grade, 500 households in Shiyi, before he was crowned as an adult, the fief and Shiyi households will enjoy it when they become adults."

Du He hurriedly said: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"

He understood it, and he suddenly became a son of Lantian County, from the status of the fifth rank, but Li Er, an old Yinbi, actually detained his food township.

There are 500 households in Shiyi, which means that there is nominal land and population, but now it seems that this is empty.

Other people's titles are all substantive, but Du He is just a name.

Since Li Er's imperial edict had not been discussed with everyone, everyone felt a little nondescript.

But whoever asked His Majesty to personally order, no one dared to complain.

Du He took the imperial edict.

Li Er said encouragingly: "Son of Lantian County, you should give full play to your ingenuity in the future, and contribute more wisdom to my Tang Dynasty. The more things like explosives, the better, understand?"

Du He hurriedly said: "Thank you for the reward, Your Majesty. I must guard against arrogance and impetuosity, continue to work hard, maintain a modest and prudent style and a positive and enterprising attitude, and live up to Your Majesty's good intentions. Continue to shine in the post of Lantian County, Serve Your Majesty."

Du He's words sounded like they came from the heart.

Many people opened their mouths in surprise.

Only Li Er knew that if one out of ten sentences of what Du He said was true, it would be good.

Many people stepped forward immediately.

"Congratulations, Lantian County!"

"Lantian county son is really young and promising!"

"Congratulations Du Xiang!"

"Congratulations to Lantian County!"

Many people who had opposed Du He before changed their faces at this time.

Ordinarily, the heirs of the founding ministers like Du He's eldest Sun Chong will inevitably be granted titles in the future, but that is the treatment after they reach adulthood.

However, Du He's son of Lantian County has a different meaning. This title is not due to Du Ruhui's contribution, but Du He earned it himself.
