The First Young Master of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 884 Headache Reward

Changsun Chong is the eldest son of the Changsun family, the consort of the Tang Dynasty, and the nephew of Empress Changsun. Naturally, he is also the nephew of His Majesty Li Er. Now Xuan Shijing's attitude makes His Majesty Li Er feel a little powerless .

Yesterday all the imperial physicians in the palace went to Changsun Wuji's mansion and diagnosed it. Changsun Chong is not a disease, but a poison. It is just the antidote. After the medicine came out, he didn't dare to take it rashly.

Xuan Shijing now feels like a migrant worker asking for salary, full of helplessness about this matter, and confused about the next thing.

What are you thinking! You are still trying to ask for an explanation. Heh, I am a minister, and the person sitting above is the emperor. I have no right to ask for an explanation, and what obligation does His Majesty Li Er have to give himself this explanation.

Suddenly, I felt that I was really pitiful.

Xuan Shijing lowered his eyes, and cupped his hands towards His Majesty Li Er: "Yes, I know, I remembered that there are still some urgent matters at home that have not been dealt with, and I will leave." Xuan Shijing cupped his hands, bowed and withdrew Manna Hall.

Walking in the palace in a daze, unaware of the eyes of people passing by, even if a little eunuch in front of him accidentally bumped into Xuan Shijing while walking, Xuan Shijing was unaware and left the palace just like that.

Ma Ye was at the guard at the gate of the palace, Xuan Shijing climbed up on the horseback in embarrassment, and then sat on the horse in a daze, allowing Ma Ye to wander around Chang'an City, wherever he wandered.

In Ganlu Palace, Deyi watched Xuan Shijing leave in a daze, and couldn't help but stepped forward and said softly: "Your Majesty, Lord Hou is here"

"You follow up and take a look." His Majesty Li Er ordered.

"No." Deyi responded, and then left the Ganlu Palace.

On the main street of Chang'an City, Ma Ye was walking unsteadily on the street, tired from walking, and started walking towards the Shenhou Mansion.

It is said that old horses know the way, although Master Ma is young, the three-acre land in Chang'an City is still nothing to him.

When they arrived at the gate of Shenhou Mansion, Xuan Shijing was still sitting on the horse with a blank expression on his face, but the two guards at the gate of Shenhou Mansion noticed that something was wrong with Xuan Shijing.

"Master Hou?" One of the Jin Yiwei stepped forward and called out cautiously.

Xuan Shijing raised his head to look at the plaque on the Shenhou Mansion, and at the Jinyiwei at the door.

"We've arrived at Shenhou's Mansion." After saying that, Xuan Shijing got off his horse and handed Mr. Ma to the Jin Yiwei at the door: "Order, no one should disturb this Marquis."

After finishing speaking, Xuan Shijing entered the Shenhou Mansion without looking back, and went directly to the secret room of the cell.

If there is any place that is the quietest, this is it.

Xuan Shijing has a separate room in the secret room, and the people from the Shenhou Mansion are processing the collected news outside. Xuan Shijing's room is in the deep part of the hall, the innermost place, which is fairly quiet.

Xuan Shijing just feels physically and mentally exhausted now, and really wants to take a good night's sleep.

And he did exactly that. After entering the secret room, he lay down on the bed and fell asleep as soon as he was covered for the rest of his life.

When it was time for dinner in the evening, there was still no sign of Xuan Shijing in the Hou's mansion, so Zhong Zishuo hurriedly found Mrs. Wang.

"Until now, Lord Hou has not been found. The palace also sent people to ask, and they said that they have left the palace a long time ago."

"Can someone be sent to the Shenhou Mansion?" Wang asked.

"I have already sent people there, but they haven't come back yet." Zhong Zisuo replied.

"Maybe she is in the Shenhou Mansion. Jing'er has just returned to Chang'an, and there are many things to deal with. It won't be too late to wait for the people sent to the Shenhou Mansion to come back." Wang said.

Chang'an City is just that big, since you haven't left Chang'an City, you can't lose it.

Lizheng Hall.

Empress Changsun and His Majesty Li Er finished dinner and were playing chess. Empress Changsun mentioned Changsun Chong's illness.

"Your Majesty, my concubine heard that His Majesty met Jing'er in the Ganlu Palace today?" asked Empress Changsun.

"Well, but how about this kid, he has a bit of a temper, but don't worry, maidservant Guanyin, Changsun Chong will be fine soon." His Majesty Li Er said.

Empress Changsun nodded, and asked again: "Usually Deyi is always inseparable from His Majesty, why didn't you see Deyi serving His Majesty today?"

"I asked him to go with Jing'er. When this child left, something was wrong, and I was worried." His Majesty Li Er sighed: "I'm afraid this child has more difficulties in his heart."

"Your Majesty is also doing it for his own good. Although it is said that Chang Sun Chong was at fault first, he must not let Chang Sun Chong lose his life because of this fault. If this is the case, wouldn't Chang Le become a widow? Eldest brother certainly doesn't like it." It's good, Jing'er is still young and doesn't know how to weigh the pros and cons, this hurdle, once he thinks it through clearly, will pass." Empress Changsun comforted.

"If you say that, it's Deyi who hasn't come back yet. Could it be that something happened?" His Majesty Li Er put down the chess piece and frowned.

"What can happen to You Deyi, the big Chang'an can't let him be a Marquis? Don't worry, Your Majesty, if something happens, Deyi will come back and report to His Majesty sooner." Empress Changsun brought tea to him His Majesty Li Er: "Let's talk about the matter. If this matter is not handled properly, I'm afraid it will hurt the child's heart. I heard that this child has made a lot of contributions on the Liaodong battlefield."

His Majesty Li Er picked up his teacup and took a sip: "Yeah, I'm still worried, how should I reward him? If it's about adding an official position, even though he's an idler now, he's already from the fourth rank. He's so young. It's probably inappropriate to be promoted, and it's too light to reward money, so it's difficult."

Empress Changsun thought about it, and felt that what His Majesty Li Er said was true, the official position could not be raised any further, what about the title?If Xuan Shijing's title goes up further, he can only inherit the position of his father, the Duke of Jin, a Duke who has not yet been crowned?

There is no promotion for the official, no title for the title, so I can only give the honor.

The Twelfth Rank of Tang Ce Xun, the highest is the second rank of Shangzhu Kingdom, which is Cheng Yaojin's current honor, and the lowest is the seventh rank of Wuqiwei.According to Xuan Shijing's performance on the Liaodong battlefield, Zhu Guo couldn't get it, but the third-rank guards were more than enough.

It is obvious that His Majesty Li Er also thought of this method to confer honors on Xuan Shijing, but the honors are only for the sake of face, and they are of no real use. For ordinary people in Guanzhong, maybe some males will pick them up. A Yunqiwei, Wuqiwei or something.

"Your Majesty, Eunuch Deyi has arrived." Just as His Majesty Li Er was thinking about what kind of reward he should give Xuan Shijing, a maid outside the Lizheng Hall came in to report.

"Let him in." His Majesty Li Er replied.

"Yes."
