The First Young Master of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 2052 Lively
Among those who went to attend the post-sealing ceremony today, I don't know how many of them are involved in this case, and I don't know how Li Chengqian will decide this matter.

People will die, that's for sure, but how many people will die?

You can't be full of civil and military honors in the court, and those who have something to do with the bank should be killed, right?If the means are too intense, it will inevitably cause a backlash.Therefore, Xuan Shijing hoped that Li Chengqian could grasp a certain degree.

As the carriage swayed, Xuan Shijing was immersed in his own thoughts. After walking for an hour and a half, the team arrived at Longshouyuan.

These merchants still have to be watched by the soldiers of Zuo Wuwei. As for Xuan Shijing, his actions are free. After arriving at Danfeng Gate, Xuan Shijing can directly enter the palace.

After entering the Danfeng Gate, the grand square in front of the Hanyuan Hall is already decorated with lights and festoons. It was almost arranged the day before. After passing through the Danfeng Gate, the whole scene in front of the hall is unobstructed.

It's not too early for Xuan Shijing to come, because at this moment, Li Chengqian is discussing matters with the Chinese and military officials of the court in the Hanyuan Hall.

On the contrary, Xuan Shijing was idle.

Well, let's go to the Xuanzheng Hall and wait. After Li Chengqian retires, he will definitely go to the Xuanzheng Hall, at least to change his clothes.

The clothes worn by the emperor when going to court are different from those worn for holding ceremonies. Therefore, the time for the conferring ceremony must be pushed back after the court meeting. Various factors will be considered, even the weather factor must be taken into account.

When I first heard about it, Xuan Shijing felt that the people of Qin Tianjian were really good at predicting the weather, which was more accurate than the weather forecast of later generations. The post-sealing ceremony said that the weather was sunny, and it really was sunny, with a light blue sky thousands of miles away. No cloud, really beautiful.

Standing on the steps outside Xuanzheng Hall, Xuan Shijing just waited bored.

In the harem, Empress Su's personal maid is putting on the newly made clothes on Empress Su's body. This is going to be worn in a while to attend the conferring ceremony. Preparations have been started a long time ago, and today is the time to officially put it on .

Today is a good day for Empress Su, but Empress Su is not as happy as she imagined.

Because I knew what was going to happen today in advance, it was difficult to bring any interest to this day.

This is the sorrow of the royal family. For the sake of the court and the world, sacrifices must be made.

"Your Majesty, you really look good in this outfit." The maid beside Empress Su smiled and said, "In a while, this servant will take care of your hair again."

"Okay." Empress Su responded with a smile.

What's the use of dressing up nicely? It can't change the fact that today is a bloody day.

At that time, will the history books be filled with rich colors? Yonghui's three-year post-sealing ceremony will become the day when the emperor's majesty's money cleaning case will be concluded. The protagonist who shined so brightly in the end was taken away in one stroke.
Because it was the day of the Empress Dowager Ceremony, the court meeting in the Hanyuan Hall did not last long, and the court was quickly withdrawn amidst Lin'an's high-pitched voice.

Li Chengqian came out of Hanyuan Hall, stood still, and said to Lin'an.

"Lin'an, go to the queen's place to see how the preparations are going. You can go there yourself." Li Chengqian ordered.

"Yes." Lin'an responded.

Li Chengqian went back to the Xuanzheng Hall alone, before he reached the door, he saw Xuan Shijing standing on the steps, sighed, and showed a helpless smile on his face.

Xuan Shijing, the Duke of Qi in the current dynasty, is now a person of high position and authority, but he is a master who does not like to go to court. From being an official when he was young to now, he is middle-aged, and the number of times he has gone to court You can count on your fingers.

It was enough if Xuan Shijing didn't go to court, once he went to court, the courtiers knew that something big must happen, or something big was about to happen.

"Why don't you go in and sit down?" Li Chengqian walked up the steps and walked in front of Xuan Shijing.

Xuan Shijing bowed and cupped his hands to salute, and said with a smile: "This is against the rules."

"What's wrong! I've never seen you obey the rules before. You're so honest all of a sudden, I'm not used to it." Li Chengqian smiled angrily: "Come in and talk about it."

The two entered the Xuanzheng Hall and pushed back everyone in the Xuanzheng Hall. When there were only the two of them left in the Xuanzheng Hall, Xuan Shijing saw a bit of fanaticism and madness from Li Chengqian's face.

This is not a good sign.

What Xuan Shijing is most worried about now is that Li Chengqian's bloody eyes will be ruined by killing people and ruining a good game of chess, so he has to persuade him a little bit.

As for the imperial envoy Lai Junchen that Li Chengqian sent from Chang'an to Langya earlier, Xuan Shijing had already heard a lot of gossip about this Lai Junchen.

What can be concluded is that this Lai Junchen is not a kind person.

Let Lai Junchen go to Langya to deal with the affairs of the Wang family. Lai Junchen may not be able to do anything. When things go wrong, Lai Junchen can take the blame. Affected Li Chengqian's reputation.

After all, Lai Junchen was acting under orders, and it was Li Chengqian who gave Lai Junchen the right to be the imperial envoy.

"Your Majesty, everyone has arrived. Now that the soldiers of Zuo Wuwei are watching, I will come to the palace first." Xuan Shijing said with cupped hands.

"This day has finally come!" Li Chengqian looked serious, but amidst the seriousness, there was a little bit of excitement.

This is his first big case since he succeeded to the throne.

Moreover, in the year of Zhenguan, His Majesty Li Er had discussed with Li Chengqian about honors in private.

At the beginning of the founding of the Tang Dynasty, during the reign of Wude, there were too many titles and honors that were entrusted. Even if those people did nothing, the court would support them, from generation to generation. , the Zhenguan Dynasty also made do, but since the Yonghui Dynasty, those nobles who lived on their laurels have been reproduced from generation to generation. How long can the court support them?
During the Zhenguan period, the imperial court controlled the titles bestowed on the ministers. In the Yonghui Dynasty, a large number of old nobles were about to be sacked because of the bank.

In addition to cleaning up the bank, it also relieved the national treasury of a considerable burden. No wonder Li Chengqian was a little excited.

The titles at the beginning of the Tang Dynasty were the least valuable titles, and most of them were given by Li Yuan, which made it a bit too big to get rid of.
