The First Young Master of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 1817
In addition to titles and rewards, Li Chengqian also promised Xuan Shijing an official position, that is, Prince Shaoshi, but this official position will not be given to him now, and now Li Chengqian is still the prince. After the eighth day of September, he will become the emperor. , then next, there will definitely be a new prince. After the new prince appears, Li Chengqian will give Xuan Shijing the position of the prince's junior teacher.

This is an official position of the second rank, which is one level higher than the official position of Prince Xuan Shijing Zhan Shi.

Wanting to give Xuan Shijing this official position, Li Chengqian also thought deeply about it himself. Now his children, the oldest is only in their teens, and it is the time when they need someone to teach them. Let Xuan Shijing teach them. It couldn't be more suitable, and with Xuan Shijing's temperament, Li Chengqian felt that this seat should be very suitable for Xuan Shijing's appetite.

It is possible to go to the court differently every day, but there is still an important position in the court. More importantly, when Li Chengqian abdicates in the future and the new crown prince succeeds, then Xuan Shijing will be the emperor's teacher.

In fact, this also meant that Li Chengqian wanted to find a good teacher and friend for his son, a righteous minister, and of course, it also tied Xuan Shijing here.

If possible, Li Chengqian wants Xuan Shijing to assist Datang for the rest of his life.

Li Chengqian knew how capable Xuan Shijing was, and it was precisely because he knew that such a talent could not be easily let go, or in other words, let him go out easily.

The current Li Chengqian is no longer the former Li Chengqian. He will become the emperor, and he has to think in the direction of the emperor. In other words, as early as two years ago, he had to learn to do this. In two years, Enough to make him have a big change, especially a change in thinking.

And Xuan Shijing also acquiesced to Li Chengqian's change, how could anyone stay the same?

As for the bondage, it's just that one is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer.

At least for now, Xuan Shijing is willing to pay for the Great Tang. Today's Great Tang is no longer the Great Tang in history. It is more prosperous and magnificent than the historical Great Tang at the same time. Did he try his best to pay for the results in return?
Although this is not the result of him alone, it is precisely because of his efforts that the direction has changed, isn't it?
Let's talk about Li Tai.

As the dean of the engineering college, Li Tai also has a credit for the improvement of the relationship between the looms by the students of the engineering college. So Li Chengqian also wanted to transfer Li Ke to the three provinces.

In this way, the crown prince becomes the emperor, and the two original princes participate in the government, and can become his right-hand man and become a generation of virtuous kings.

It's just that Li Tai didn't have that self-consciousness. He felt that he was not comfortable in the academy in the court, and he didn't want to enter the three provinces.

But helplessly, the three provinces had already drafted the edict, and it would take a while for Li Tai to get rid of this position.

After such a long time, where is there any fight among the three princes of the royal family?From earlier on, it was partly because these three people had common interests. Besides, Li Chengqian's crown prince's position was very secure and he had no faults. Moreover, Li Chengqian's ability to govern the country was indeed superior to theirs. , This makes Li Tai and Li Ke see no hope. It is better to be a generation of virtuous kings honestly and leave a name in history.

Moreover, this is what their father, His Majesty Li Er, hopes to see. Whether it is for public or private purposes, or for their own wealth and life, the prince's dream has long since dissipated.

A good relationship with Prince Li Chengqian can lead to a good end, this is the kingly way.

As for Cheng Chumo, he was promoted to General of Zuowei Zhonglang. Li Ke is a prince, and it is impossible to be promoted again in his position. He just expanded his fief, and then he still stayed in Chang'an and entered the three provinces.

In addition, Qin Ying was sent back to Chang'an City from the army. He has been outside for a long time, and the Qin family in Chang'an cannot always be without a patriarch, so this is already a favor to the Qin family. As for Li Chongyi, his father is currently teaching happily in the academy on Zhuangzi in Dongshan County. There is no shortage of him here in Chang'an City, so he still has to continue to be released to gain qualifications, earn political achievements, and inherit his father's title in the future. After that, he should be able to stay in Chang'an City, whether it is real power or idle work.

When that time really came, it was almost time for him to concentrate on training the next generation to enter the official career.

Now that Li Chengqian told them this, they also had confidence in their hearts. When the day came, they would not have to worry about it, and just concentrate on participating in the ceremony.

Although it has not been finalized, it is just that the three provinces sent the edict again, and Li Chengqian stamped the jade seal on the edict.

For the past two days, Xuan Shijing's family lived in Daozhengfang in Chang'an City, and it was rare that they often went out to eat, drink and drink with a few brothers, and they were waiting to attend Li Chengqian's "swearing-in ceremony".

The Taishi Bureau and the Ministry of Rituals also arranged a large enough space for the ceremony.

In the early morning of the eighth day of September, before dawn, the officials of the imperial court would put on formal court uniforms, file in through the Danfeng Gate, and enter the Daming Palace.

The ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven was set up in the large square in front of the Hanyuan Hall. All the ministers and officials stood in the open space outside the square, and the steps leading to the Hanyuan Hall were covered with red carpets, including the Longwei Road on both sides. .

Originally, if you want to enter the Hanyuan Hall from the square, you can only walk along the Longwei Road on both sides, but today, you have set up steps in the middle, paved the red carpet, and can directly walk from behind the Tongding Cauldron. Go up the steps, walk up the high platform of Hanyuan Hall from the middle, and enter the Hanyuan Hall.

Hundreds of officials and ministers lined up on the left and right, and in the middle was the place where the new emperor's Long Xun was going to leave for a while.

The Imperial Forest Army in the palace had all put on brand-new bright armors, and the sabers around their waists had been replaced with ceremonial knives, and they were lined up around the entire Hanyuan Hall, either surrounding the Hanyuan Hall, or standing under the palace wall, Or standing around the courtiers in the square.

The people of the Taishi Bureau calculated the time, at the moment when the sun rises, His Majesty Li Er will offer sacrifices to the heavens, recite the sacrificial texts, pray to the heavens and the earth, and then abdicate. At noon, when the sun is at its strongest, it will be Li Chengqian sacrificed to the heavens, and after the sacrifices to the heavens, it was his succession ceremony, and the timing was chosen very carefully.

And during the period in between, I am not afraid that there is nothing to do, just His Majesty Li Er offering sacrifices to the heavens is a huge project, and the time required is not short.
