The First Young Master of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 2120 Selection

Lai Junchen is now heading to the Middle East and west, wanting to find something to do for himself, all for himself. In the past two months, Lai Junchen has been promoted to three levels in a row, and he has completely entered the In the field of power, if he wants to get promoted and make a fortune, he has to constantly make himself active in front of His Majesty.

He used to serve as a censor, but now he is the censor Zhongcheng. It is also his duty to picket all the officials in the court, and it is exactly the same. Therefore, Lai Junchen has impeached people in the court recently. The Zheng family's affairs are over, and he has to continue. Find yourself a step up.

Lai Junchen needs to go through this to keep himself valued by Li Chengqian, and now Li Chengqian also needs Lai Junchen to help him clear some people from the court.

So the people in the court also saw that this Lai Junchen was beyond their reach now.

Since you can't move, and His Majesty also condoned Lai Junchen to stir up the wind and rain in the court, then keep a certain distance with this person, and just have a certain relationship.

The Minister of Rites also thought so, but he didn't take the initiative to make friends with Lai Junchen, he just ignored him and didn't get involved with him.

A person who can do a book of ministers must not have a simple relationship in the court, so Lai Junchen, speaking of it, is still out of his sight for the time being.

How long can His Majesty tolerate an official who rises to the top by killing people?
The reason why Lai Junchen can be so arrogant in the court is known to all the officials, but they don't know when His Majesty will deal with him.

Hearing what Dou Xiaoguo said, Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites was half relieved.

That's right, as long as Lai Junchen doesn't expose this matter, who is free to do such offending things?

This matter has something to do with Lai Junchen. Lai Junchen may have received money, and he would not dig a hole for himself.

"This is the best." Minister of Rites sighed and said, "By the way, does Duke Qi have any opinion on this matter?"

Dou Xiaoguo is the son-in-law of the Duke of Qi, so why not teach Dou Xiaoguo what to do when he is at home?It would be even more reassuring if there was Qi Guogong's guidance behind this.

Dou Xiaoguo shook his head.

He hasn't seen his father-in-law in the past two days.

Now Dou Xiaoguo is also preparing to move into Daozhengfang, and Xuan Shijing has already taken care of the house for him.

In front of him, he just needs to figure out his own affairs in the Ministry of Rites.

The Book of the Ministry of Rites sighed: "In that case, let's relax for the time being and arrange for a few girls to enter the palace to face the saint."

"Yes." Dou Xiaoguo responded.

The people from the Ministry of Rites will bring several girls to the Ministry of Rites first, and be taught by special officials, and then escorted into the palace, so that His Majesty and the Empress will have a look at them. However, another servant is doing this. It is also a little trick of Shangshu.

If it is involved, the entire Ministry of Rites will be involved, and even if something happens at that time, it will be reduced to a minor one.

The day chosen by Li Chengqian came as promised, and the few girls selected by him and Empress Su had almost learned the etiquette in the palace in the Ministry of Rites. It was taught by someone, and it wouldn't go anywhere. After arriving at the Ministry of Rites, the officials of the Ministry of Rites only repeated a few times and told them a few times.

Li Chengqian had finished processing the memorials piled up in the Xuanzheng Hall early that day, and asked the servants in the palace to notify Empress Su to go to the Xuanzheng Hall, and take Li Jue, the King of E, along with him.

As for Li Jue, he must not be able to show his face, he can only secretly look out of the inner hall.

"My concubine greets Your Majesty." Empress Su brought the servants and maids of the palace to the Xuanzheng Hall.

"The queen doesn't need to be polite, please sit down."

After the emperor and empress took their seats in the Xuanzheng Hall, they ordered Lin'an, who was on the side, to let Lin'an go out and bring officials from the Ministry of Rites and the girls named by him and Empress Su into the Xuanzheng Hall.

It is self-evident what it means to be called by His Majesty and the Queen to come to the palace. Therefore, these seven girls dressed themselves up carefully and went out today.

A group of people entered the Xuanzheng Hall.

"Sir, see Your Majesty, Empress."

Minister of Rites personally brought these girls to the palace today, he just wanted to be the first to know what the final result was.

Although he knew in his heart that it was unlikely that something would happen, if Wang Shouli's daughter was not chosen, that would be the best result.

"Courtesy see Your Majesty, Empress Empress."

The seven girls also stood in the hall gracefully, blessing themselves and saluting.

"Excuse me." Li Chengqian said.

Li Chengqian had been paying attention to the seven girls from the moment they walked into the Xuanzheng Hall just now, until they finished their salutes, Li Chengqian looked at the queen with questions in his eyes.

Empress Su looked at Li Chengqian and nodded to him.

It means that these seven girls are all very outstanding. As for which girl to choose, it is open to discussion, let's wait and see.

"Everyone raise their heads," Queen Su said.

The seven girls standing in the hall raised their heads one after another, but they dare not look at the emperor and empress so directly.

"All of them are beautiful people, don't you think so, Your Majesty?" Empress Su smiled lightly.

"What the queen said is true." Li Chengqian responded.

This is not to choose a concubine for himself to fill the harem, anyway, he will obey whatever the queen says.

Li Chengqian could hear a bit of ridicule from Empress Su's words. The two of them are old couples and they are not as young as they used to be. When they see a young and beautiful girl, they can make fun of them. .

Li Jue obeyed his mother's words and stood in the inner hall, looking outside. When the seven girls entered the Xuanzheng Hall from the outside, he also watched seriously, but it seemed that none of them is what he likes.

But Li Jue also knew that his future princess would definitely be among these seven people.

The prince's marriage has never been their decision. Even if they don't like it, they can't say it. He has to recognize the father and mother's marriage.

Did the royal father like the queen mother back then?That's not necessarily the case, it's not that the emperor's grandfather decreed to bestow the marriage, but fortunately, the father, the queen and the queen have always respected each other as guests.

Thinking of these, Li Jue couldn't help but felt a sense of loss. It would be great if he and Miss Xuan could become a couple. I like it, and my father is also very happy to agree to this marriage.

It's just that the sky fails to fulfill people's wishes.

An An and Dou Xiaoguo are already engaged, and Li Jue already knew about this matter even in the palace, so he was not in a good mood, and couldn't be happy about his father's decree to grant him a marriage.
