Prosperous Tang Blood Blade

Chapter 300 Li Yuan's Scruples

Chapter 1 Li Yuan's Scruples
Even though Chen Ying resigned the champion county duke, the more Chen Ying retreated modestly, the more Li Yuan could not take advantage of the slope to step down. After all, the Tang court still had to face, and it was impossible to underestimate Chen Ying, a hero.

In fact, Li Yuan was also very troubled by Chen Ying's reward.With Chen Ying's merits, it is not enough to be promoted by one rank, and it is also reasonable to be rewarded by one rank. The key is Chen Ying's age, which is really too young.

Originally, Chen Ying, as the general manager of Lingzhou and concurrently in charge of the military affairs of the six states, was already a lower-ranking official of the third rank at the level of the commander of the Chinese army. Didn't officials at the ministry level spend most of their lives to get to this position?

If Chen Ying is allowed to share the same palace with these people who are full of Chen Ying's grandfathers, and Chen Ying's official position will come from behind, how will these old officials feel?

Li Yuan had just begun to decree to confer the title of champion county magistrate, just to test whether Chen Ying knew the general idea, whether he knew how to advance and retreat.If Chen Ying doesn't know how to advance and retreat, then he will repeat the mistakes of his grandfather Hou Mo and Chen Chong.

However, after this trial, Li Yuan was very satisfied, and Chen Ying knew how to advance and retreat, and understood the general situation.Li Yuandao: "I govern the world with literature, and use military force to fight chaos. You have the merits of calming the chaos in the east of the river. You praise virtue and reward your wealth. If you don't reward, how can you show my fairness?"

Chen Yingdao: "I don't want to be named Marquis, I only hope that the world will be peaceful."

Hearing this, Li Yuan froze for a moment as if he had been killed by lightning.

"I don't want to be a marquis, but I hope that the world will be peaceful." This book was written by the famous national hero Qi Jiguang when he was 19 years old when he was studying military art. Jing.

As soon as this remark came out, the whole court was shocked.

Being indifferent to fame and wealth is the lofty pursuit of the ancient benevolent gentleman, but in fact no one has really achieved this.However, Chen Ying did it. He refused Li Yuan's title as the champion county magistrate. When Chen Ying said this, his image in the hearts of all the officials instantly grew like a giant.

Li Yuan looked at the officials, lowered his voice and whispered in Chen Ying's ear: "What exactly do you want?"

Chen Ying took a deep breath, and said in a low voice, "Your Majesty, please give Princess Pingyang to Chen Ying as his wife!"

After hearing this, Li Yuan's face remained calm.However, Li Yuan's eyes turned sharp, piercing Chen Ying's eyes like a knife.

"Don't even think about it, this is absolutely impossible!" Li Yuan let out a suppressed voice with a smile on his face, it was obvious that Li Yuan wanted to cut Chen Ying into pieces.

Chen Ying faced it frankly, without any fear: "Your Majesty, please help me!"

"Young Minister of Taichang Temple!" Li Yuan slowly put forward his conditions.

Chen Yingdao: "Your Majesty, if I take over the weapon supervision, the annual output of refined steel will be at least 1000 million catties."

Li Yuan was slightly taken aback when he heard this.

1000 million jin of steel is no more than 1000 tons, which is the amount used for a slightly larger project.However, in the Tang Dynasty, it was an unimaginable astronomical figure.Chang'an's weapons supervisors can't even do 100 million jin of iron, let alone [-] million jin of steel.For a moment, Li Yuan's heart was moved.However, he was unwilling to be threatened by one of his subjects like this.

"Secretary supervisor." Li Yuan's face twitched.

Chen Ying knew that Secretary Supervisor was a very noble official position. With this official position, he would basically be able to be in charge of the Prime Minister in the future. Unfortunately, Chen Ying had no intention of peeping at Datang's position as Prime Minister.

Chen Yingdao: "Your Majesty, I beg your Majesty to do it. To marry Her Royal Highness, I have prepared a land of thousands of miles. As long as Your Majesty allows, I will capture Li Gui for His Majesty."

Li Yuan suddenly remembered that Chen Ying was the grandson of Hou Mo and Chen Chong. When Hou Mo and Chen Chong quelled the rebellion of the Six Towns, he was granted the title of Marquis of Linjing County, with eight hundred households in Shiyi. At that time, he was renamed the Duke of Pengcheng County.Thinking of this, Li Yuan murmured: "Your grandfather was Duke of Pengcheng back then, so I ordered you to succeed your grandfather as Duke of Pengcheng."

Li Yuan also played a word game, inherited.

In this way, Chen Ying was inconspicuous in the court.After all, the inherited title, not to mention the Duke of the County, even the Duke of the State, has been inherited by a child with a yellow mouth.Moreover, in order to take care of the Guanlong nobles and Shandong nobles, Li Yuan basically recognized many titles left over from the Sui Dynasty or the Northern Zhou Dynasty, and at most changed them.

At this time, Chen Ying was confused: "Pengcheng... County... County... Lord?"

Li Yuan looked at Chen Ying's surprised expression, and said indifferently: "Mr. Pengcheng has three thousand households in Shiyi."

"Congratulations, Duke Pengcheng!"

All the ministers congratulated Chen Ying together.

……

Until walking out of the Tai Chi Hall, Chen Ying still felt like he was dreaming.County Duke?Is it so easy to get it?But why did Li Yuan disagree with Li Xiuning marrying Chen Ying?
Speaking of which, it was actually because of Chai Shao's father, Chai Shen.During Yang Guang's period, Chai Shen was Yang Guang's prince right inner rate, and Chai Shao was the prince's companion.Marrying Li Xiuning to Chai Shao was actually Li Yuan's intention to bet on Yang Guang's time and numb Yang Guang's mind.However, Chai Shen is a smart man. When Li Yuan became the deputy of Jinyang Palace, he found out that Li Yuan was secretly recruiting troops. Tang Shu), Chai Shen is the middle contact person.

Now that the world is uncertain, although the overall situation in Hedong has been decided, Hebei is still in the hands of Dou Jiande. If Li Yuan breaks with the Chai family at this time, it means that Li Yuan has lost his trust.Losing the support of the Cui family and other seven schools and five schools means that Li Yuan will break with the Shandong aristocratic group, and the consequences will be serious.Unless Li Yuan is not like unifying the world, living in Guanzhong, preferring one side.

Li Yuan is not such a person either, he wants to unify the world and achieve hegemony, so even if he knows that the marriage between Li Xiuning and Chai Shao is in fact dead, he has to grit his teeth and admit the result.

If Chen Ying hadn't asked for a formal marriage with Li Xiuning, Li Yuan would have turned a blind eye even if he had some ulterior relationship with Li Xiuning.But he would never agree to break with Chai, let alone allow such a thing to happen.

Therefore, Li Yuan would rather give Chen Ying the title of Duke of Pengcheng than agree to Li Xiuning's separation from Chai Shao, unless Chen Ying's strength alone can surpass the seven schools and five schools.Of course, this is impossible.The strength of the Seven Schools and Five Hopes in the entire Tang Dynasty was no less than that of the later generations of the Rothschild family.Although in the early years of the Tang Dynasty, the strength of the seven sects and five wangs could easily influence the general trend of the world.

In fact, Chen Ying didn't know that a title was really not a valuable thing in the Tang Dynasty. There were no fewer than dozens of dukes under Li Yuan's conferment, and there were even more county dukes. But turning faces is faster than turning books.

The internal history order Dou Wei and Guanglu doctor Hou Mo Chenqian will come out hand in hand, suddenly looking at Chen Ying, Hou Mo Chenqian, who was originally calm, became emotional.

Dou Wei whispered: "Could it be such a coincidence that Chen Ying is your cousin?"

"I can't be wrong!" Hou Mo Chenqian said excitedly: "When you see that face, you can't be wrong. Our Hou Mochen family is all better looking than Pan An. Doesn't Dou Xiangguo think that he is old and old?" I think I was in Daxing City (the old name of Chang’an in the Sui Dynasty) and I too..."

Before Hou Mo and Chen Qian could finish speaking, Dou Wei said with a smile: "Just forget about it, a timid person will definitely cry when they see you!"

Chen Ying turned around suddenly, saw Hou Mo and Chen Qianhui beside Dou Wei, then turned around and bowed to salute.

Hou Mo and Chen Qianhui were taken aback. Originally, he didn't intend to let Chen Ying recognize his ancestor, but judging from what Li Yuan meant, it was clear that he already knew that Chen Ying's surname was not Chen, but Hou Mochen.

Recognition?Still don't recognize each other?Hou Mo and Chen Qianhui immediately became entangled.

Hou Mo and Chen Qianhui said in surprise, "You know me?"

Chen Ying shook his head and said: "Chen Ying doesn't know senior, but he was reminded by senior earlier that Chen Ying didn't make a big mistake. If senior has this heart, it is kindness and rebirth. Haven't you asked senior Gao's name?"

"My surname is Hou Mo and Chen's name is Qianhui!"

When Chen Ying heard the weird surname "Hou Mochen", he thought it was Hu's surname, but when he saw Hou Mochen Qianhui, he didn't look like Hu people at all, just like Han people, so he was slightly surprised.

"Hou Mo Chen envoy sees you again, Chen Ying goes first!"

"Hey..." A sigh, full of helplessness.
