The First Young Master of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 380

However, His Majesty also has other ideas, for example, in order to avoid breaking the relationship with the Supreme Emperor again, so throwing this hot potato at Xuan Shijing's age is Xuan Shijing's shortcoming, but it is also his advantage.
But no matter what the situation is, Xuan Shijing is the one who benefits.

Hearing this decree, Xuan Shijing himself was in a cloud of mist. The long and eloquent article above should have said that you are very good, and your political achievements on weekdays are also good. I am very optimistic about you and let you open a Tangkou. And so on.

Xuan Shijing also knew what this decree meant. The right to open a mansion is a right only for princes and princes, and what does His Majesty Li Er mean by asking him to open a mansion now?Could it be that he wants to recruit people by himself to deal with Li Yuanjing?

It is said that His Majesty Li Er went to Da'an Palace yesterday, and when he came back, he stayed alone in Taiji Hall, thinking for a long time
Now that all of this has happened, I'm afraid it has some connection with the Supreme Emperor Li Yuan.

"Your Majesty." Wei Zheng bowed his hands and came out, first saluted His Majesty Li Er, and then said: "Your Majesty, the Marquis of Dongshan is only fourteen years old, and the noble is no more than a state marquis. The right to open a mansion has always been reserved for the princes of the vassals and the fiefdom royal family. Quan, now His Majesty has specially granted Dongshan Hou Xing the right to open the mansion, but it is inconsistent with the etiquette and law, I hope His Majesty will take it back."

"Auxiliary machine, what do you think?" His Majesty Li Er set his eyes on Changsun Wuji.

After Changsun Wuji came out, he cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, I think what Master Wei said is reasonable."

"Oh? The auxiliary machine also thinks that what Wei Qing said makes sense?" His Majesty Li Er squinted his eyes and looked at Changsun Wuji with a half-smile.

"This..." Changsun Wuji was a little vacillating when he met His Majesty Li Er's gaze.

"Your Majesty." If Wei Zheng's appearance was commonplace in the eyes of everyone, then Li Ji's appearance would be a bit confusing.

Didn't this old fox stop getting involved in these messy things in the court?
"What does the British have to say?" His Majesty Li Er looked at Li Ji.

"Your Majesty, I don't think there is anything wrong with Xuanhou opening the mansion." Li Ji's words caused the entire court to explode.

What happened to the Englishman today?Why would you risk the displeasure of the world to support a junior?Could it be that there is some mystery in it?
"Let's listen to it." His Majesty Li Er said.

"Your Majesty, do you still remember the Mingde of the late Jin Guolie Wugong Xuanshi?" Li Ji lowered his head slightly, making it difficult to see the expression on his face.

"Of course I remember." His Majesty Li Er's answer was very affirmative.

"Actually, if we talk about the right to open the mansion, the Supreme Emperor and His Majesty had already given it to the Duke of Jin's mansion as early as when the Tang Ding was established. Now that the Duke of Jin has passed away for many years, this right should also be inherited by the Marquis of Dongshan. Li Ji said: "As we all know, my title in the Tang Dynasty was inherited by my son from my father. When the Duke of Jin passed away, he was granted the title of Duke of the State. Logically speaking, the Marquis of Dongshan should have inherited the title of Duke of Jin. However, His Majesty was only Xuan Shijing was conferred the title of Marquis, and Xuanhou was promoted to the throne only a few months ago."

"When did the Supreme Emperor and His Majesty grant Jin the power to open the government?" Wei Zheng asked.

Li Ji smiled: "Could it be that Mr. Wei has forgotten Erxian Village?"

After Li Ji reminded him, Wei Zheng remembered that the existence of the Erxian Village was like opening a mansion to the Hou Mansion. The people in Erxian Village below are also really powerful. Didn't the commotion in Chang'an City ten years ago come from Erxian Village?

It's no wonder that His Majesty turned a blind eye back then. When Xuan Shijing was plotted against and Erxianzhuang disturbed Chang'an, it was just to seek justice for the master. Strictly speaking, the existence of Erxianzhuang's nature It can be regarded as the opening of the Hou Mansion in Shanxi.

That is to say, Xuan Mingde, the Duke of Jin, had no name to open the mansion on the surface, but in fact he had the right to open the mansion.

Xuan Shijing was destined to become the new lord of Erxian Village since he was born, and he inherited the power in Xuan Mingde's hands. If he inherits the title of Jin Guogong, he will be even more popular in a short time. It was missed by the people in the court, so His Majesty Li Er gave Xuan Shijing a dubious title, that is, Xuanweihou. Later, Xuan Shijing returned to Chang'an again, and this was officially given to the fief, and the name was corrected. .

Now this decree is obviously that His Majesty Li Er wants to rectify the name of Er Xian Zhuang under Xuan Shijing.

With the opening of the mansion, those people in Erxian Village can be in Chang'an in a legitimate manner, and they can be under Xuan Shijing's hands in an open and honest manner.

Of course, there is a little selfishness of His Majesty Li Er in giving Xuan Shijing the right to open the mansion. Judging from the rebellion of King Jing Li Yuanjing, people under Xuan Shijing's subordinates can easily infiltrate Jingzhou and find out about Li Yuanjing's every move. As soon as he moved, the details of the news were even worse than that of the imperial court's spies. This made His Majesty Li Er feel a little uncertain. He gave Xuan Shijing the right to open the mansion. At that time, the talents of Erxianzhuang will definitely come out in full force. Go to Chang'an and assist Xuan Shijing. In this way, it is better to put these people under the eyes of His Majesty Li Er in Chang'an than far away in Shanxi.

At least, His Majesty Li Er can use this power for me. As for the expansion of Xuan Shijing's right to start the government in the future, His Majesty Li Er will be able to handle it properly at that time.

Years later, there is still King Jing's rebellion that needs to be dealt with by Xuan Shijing. Since His Majesty Li Er saw that the Supreme Emperor Li Yuan was seriously ill in Da'an Palace yesterday, he came back and thought about it for a long time. His Majesty personally took action to deal with it. If so, I am afraid that there will be another lump in the Supreme Emperor's heart. Now that the Supreme Emperor's body is already like that, it is all suspended by the precious medicinal materials used by the imperial physician. If he is a little stimulated, I am afraid that His Majesty Li Er This big black pot of unfilial infamy through the ages cannot escape, although His Majesty Li Er is already ashes on his back in this regard.
Another thing is the rule of inheriting the title. If the descendants have no meritorious achievements, the title will be reduced step by step. If Xuan Shijing's son is mediocre in the future, he will become a county uncle when he reaches the title of title.
Of course, this is not a fixed rule, the future requires hard work.

What Li Ji said made Wei Zheng really unable to think of how to refute it for a while. When Xuan Mingde was not dead, Wei Zheng was under Prince Xi Jiancheng. If you continue to entangle with it, I am afraid it will be a waste of effort.
His Majesty's decree has already been made, with Li Ji's support, and Changsun Wuji's vacillation, the attitude of these two people, coupled with His Majesty's attitude, by the way, Cheng Yaojin, Li Xiaogong, Qin Shubao and others will definitely favor Dongshanhou , this matter is also inseparable.

Although Wei Zhengren was straightforward, he was not stupid. Why did Changsun Wuji and Li Ji have such attitudes? I'm afraid there must be some way behind this.
