People in the early Tang Dynasty: I compete with Wu Zhao for the throne

Chapter 1473 The emperor comes to court and has a long life.

Li Xuan raised his head. The long street in front of him was brightly lit. Countless officials from both the government and the public stepped into the end gate and headed towards Chengtian Gate.

Under the Chengtian Sect, seven generals, Pei Xingjian, Xue Guwu, Xue Rengui, Li Xuan, Gao Kan, Li Jinxing, Sun Renshi, all dressed in red and golden armor, with swords on their waists, looked ahead with stern expressions.

In an instant, a chilling atmosphere began to surround everyone.

The prime minister headed by Liu Rengui, the clan headed by King Li Yuanjia of Han, the ministers headed by Dou Xuande, the official minister, the generals headed by Zuowei General Wang Xiaojie, and countless officials and foreign ministers behind them all gathered today.

But everyone looked at Li Xuan and others with scrutiny.

Today is the last major dynasty in the second year of Yonglong.

Emperor, will he appear?
Even Li Xuan didn't know this question. He once asked Li Xian, but Li Xian just shook his head slightly.

He didn't know this question either.

At this moment, the palace door suddenly opened, and the young chamberlain Fan Yunxian walked out quickly and shouted to everyone: "In the second year of Yonglong, on the fifteenth day of the twelfth lunar month, the emperor went to court early."

……

Li Xuanxing walked forward among the generals' queue with a solemn expression.

The atmosphere among the surrounding officials was somewhat suppressed.

During the morning court on the third day of the twelfth lunar month, the emperor said he would show up, but he still did not show up.

Then a Minister of Rites was thrown out for everyone to fight for, and everyone's eyes immediately turned to him.

After that, there was a battle between the East Palace and the Prime Minister's Palace. Today, this matter has come to an end.

But today, as the morning court came again, the ministers couldn't help but ask, is the emperor's health really okay?
Will he be able to appear in today's court?

If it fails to appear, can the future government affairs and next year's Feng Chan continue?

Amidst the anxiety, the officials entered Qianyang Hall, each behind the train.

Just as everyone was holding their breath and concentrating, the voice of the chamberlain finally sounded loudly: "The saint has arrived."

Li Xuan couldn't help but raise her eyes slightly.

The saint has arrived, has the emperor arrived?
In an instant, steady footsteps came from the entrance of the palace, and then there was the sound of a slight collision of crowns.

Amid the crisp sound, Li Xuan's breathing became heavy.

The emperor has arrived.

All the officials in the palace bowed their heads and stood bowed.

……

The emperor, who was dressed in a bright yellow black-edged Nine Dragons Nine Chapters and Gun dragon robes, and a white jade twelfth bow on his head, walked through the procession of ministers with a calm expression, and then walked to the golden steps.

The emperor waved his hand and sat down on the royal couch with a solemn expression.

Empress Wu, wearing a black phoenix robe with golden silk, sat down next to the emperor virtuously.

Li Xian, who is wearing a bright yellow nine-python nine-piece uniform and a black nine-beam crown, stands on the first step of the stairs.

Next is Prime Minister Li Dan.

The emperor has arrived and the dynasty has begun.

A solemn-looking chamberlain, Sheng Dianyi, stood forward with his hands raised, and then shouted loudly: "The saint has arrived, all the ministers salute."

Li Xuan immediately took half a step forward, then knelt down on one knee with a solemn face and shouted loudly: "I will pay my respects to Your Majesty. Your Majesty may live forever."

"Everyone is safe." The emperor's voice was steady and heavy. Although it was not as powerful as before, the ministers were sure that the emperor's health was not as bad as the outside world rumored. So these days when the emperor was hiding in Zhenguan Hall and did not see the ministers, what happened? doing what?
Li Xuan stood up with a solemn expression, then lowered her eyebrows and lowered her head.

"My dear friends." Li Zhi sat on the imperial couch, looked at the ministers below with a half-smile, and then said calmly: "I have been staying in Zhenguan Hall for many days, praying for the world, thinking that early next year From the first to the third day of the lunar month, the ceremony went smoothly. During this period, all the affairs in the court were due to the hard work of the ministers, and there will be rewards from the palace. "

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" The ministers bowed their heads again.

As they lowered their heads, everyone looked in deep thought. The emperor's health might indeed be bad, but it wasn't that bad. He was hiding in Zhenguan Hall these days, probably just observing everyone.

For a moment, the ministers couldn't help but think about whether they had done anything wrong during this period.

Li Zhi smiled, looked to one side, and said, "Declare the decree."

Wang Fulai, with a solemn expression, personally carried a silver plate and came to Li Xian's side.

Li Xian was slightly surprised and glanced at the emperor.

The emperor smiled and nodded.

Li Xian breathed a sigh of relief, picked up the imperial edict, turned to look at the ministers, and said loudly: "In the second year of Yonglong's reign, at Renwu, in the twelfth month of Guichou, on the fifteenth day of Gengyin, the emperor Ruo said:
Yu Xi!

Among the six officials of Wenchang, Zongbo is in charge of the ceremony.

The importance of selecting and awarding has been difficult since the past.

He is not a minister of Fu Taigun, but he is divided into the end and the beginning, the meaning of Jin gentry.

If you are always in harmony with the social ethics, you will not be able to accept the honor and respect of this famous thing.

The minister of household affairs, Hou Wei of Fufeng County, is waiting for a price. He is a scholar of Austrian science and eloquent, with a broad mind and a broad mind.

I will always be the foundation of Li, and I will be in my arms at night. I will conquer the world and serve as the Dingsi.

When you are able to take charge of your affairs, you will first meet with the government, and the commander-in-chief will take charge of the affairs. You will go to the imperial court!

Ke Mingshu of the Ministry of Rites.

Admire this. "

Wearing a purple round-collared robe and a black hat, Wei Daizi with a solemn expression suppressed the excitement in his heart and walked quickly out of the crowd of ministers.

Standing in the palace, Wei Daiqi fell to the ground and shouted loudly: "I thank your Majesty for your kindness. Your Majesty may live forever."

"Get back on your feet." The emperor said calmly.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Wei Baiqi stood up, his expression still full of excitement.

Although Wei Daiqi had the opportunity to be the Minister of the Ministry of Justice a few years ago, in fact, his qualifications at that time were very junior.

Even if he finally managed to sit on it, he would still be the last among the six ministers.

Now, from being the governor of Fenzhou, to being the Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, to being the Minister of the Ministry of Rites, he can sit firmly in his position.

Li Zhi smiled and said, "Wei Qing!"

"Your Majesty, I'm here!" Wei Bai bowed his hand solemnly.

"Next year, there will be many things to do about the Feng Chan. Although King Xiang is in charge of Songshan, and he is also assisted by the King of Han and the Minister of Rites, there are still some shortcomings. Today I will appoint you as the Feng Chan Ambassador. Everything inside and outside is related to Feng Chan. "You can decide with your words, you don't need to ask me for instructions." After Li Zhi finished speaking, he waved his hand gently.

The ministers all looked up for a moment, but they all understood instantly. Yes, the person who is truly responsible for the whole matter of the Fengchan matter is the Fengchan Ambassador.

At that time, Li Zhi granted Zen to Mount Tai, and the ambassador was Liu Xiangdao, the Minister of Rites at that time.

Previously, it was just because there was a vacancy in the Ministry of Rites, so Li Dan was appointed as the general manager of Songshan Mountain and was responsible for the enshrinement of Songshan Mountain.

But the matter of enshrining Zen is not just a matter of Songshan. All the ministers of the government and the public, as well as all the barbarians inside and outside, must be involved in it.

He had managed to function as Prince Li Dan before, but only barely.

Now that the Minister of Rites has returned to his position, all matters related to the enshrinement of Zen will naturally be under the jurisdiction of the Minister of Rites.

Everything Li Dan did in Songshan before fell into the hands of Wei Bai.

"I accept the decree and thank you for your kindness!" Wei Bai handed over his hand, then turned around and returned to the train.

Li Zhi looked up at King Han Li Yuanjia and said, "King Han!"

"I'm here!" Li Yuanjia immediately stood up and accepted the order.

Li Zhi nodded, then looked at Lu Yuanfang and said, "Lu Qing!"

"I'm here!" Lu Yuanfang stood up with his hands raised.

Li Zhi nodded again, and then said: "You two are the deputy envoys of Feng Chan, assisting Wei Qing in dealing with the affairs of the clan and the governors."

"I'll take the order." Li Yuanjia and Lu Yuanfang all accepted the order and then stood back in line.

……

Li Xuan stood aside and couldn't help but sigh in her heart when she saw this scene.

King Han is the head of the clan. With him in front of him, even Li Dan dare not say anything.

As for Lu Yuanfang, Governor Yong was the first governor in the world.

There are three hundred states in the world: Xiazhou, Zhongzhou, Shangzhou, Dudufu, Duhufu, the four major Dudufus, Luozhou and Yongzhou.

Among them, Yongzhou is particularly important.

The four major governor's offices are often headed by important ministers or princes and princes, but the governors of Luozhou and Yongzhou are often headed by young princes.

As for Yongzhou Mu, most of them are appointed to princes who have the opportunity to serve as princes.

For example, in the early years, Li Xian, the Mu Yong King of Yongzhou, and Li Xian, the Muying King of Yongzhou.

They all came from Yongzhou to become princes.

Therefore, the position of the governor of Yongzhang is very important. Furthermore, there are six ministers of the Jiu Temple Temple, and even the third rank of Zhongshu at any time.

For example, the former Yong Governor Shi Yang Zaisi is now the Minister of Weiwei Temple, and the former Minister of Weiwei Temple Ouyang Tong is already the Minister of the Ministry of War.

Today's governor of Yong, Lu Yuanfang, was even half of the prince's tutor, and he may have become the six ministers at some time.

Now in the DPRK, there are at least nearly a hundred governors from various places preparing to participate in the enshrinement of Zen.

Lu Yuanfang stood up and everyone bowed their heads.

With a simple arrangement, the emperor had completely suppressed the clan and governors from various places.

Everyone must act according to the rules.

……

At this moment, Wang Fulai stepped forward again, holding a silver plate with an imperial edict on it, and stood in front of Li Xian.

Li Xian glanced at the emperor in surprise, bowed slightly, then picked up the imperial edict again and read it loudly to the ministers: "In the second year of Wei Yonglong, the year of Renwu, the twelfth month of Guichou, the fifteenth year of Geng. On Yin day, the emperor Ruo said:
Yu Xi!

"Book" says: "Only respect the five punishments to achieve the three virtues." The appointment of Qiuguan is also.

You are a good choice for me! It’s here!

The prince led Geng Ling, the Sima of Yongzhou, and Su Liangsi, the official of Taizhong, who practiced benevolence and forthrightness, which is called Tao.

With museums, literature can change the trend; when traveling to and from China and abroad, it can be luxuriant and authentic.

Now that Pihu is not clear and Jianfu has not agreed, I order you to be a small Sikou, and you should respect the peace of the country and the constitution of Kuan.

He can be the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment.

Admire this. "

Su Liangsi immediately walked out of the queue, stood in the hall, and bowed his head solemnly: "I thank your Majesty for your kindness. Your Majesty may live forever."

Li Xuan lowered his head slightly, but secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Wei Daiqi was appointed as the Minister of Rites. This matter was actually the emperor's intention. If Li Dan had not intervened, the situation would have been much easier.

However, Su Liangsi's appointment as Minister of Justice was the emperor's reward for all the things Su Liangsi had done during this turmoil.

Since the East Palace won this game, the emperor naturally wanted to reward him. However, by promoting Su Liangsi, he also announced to the outside world that the prince's status was stable.

With Su Liangsi as a starting point, Donggong can pry into the six departments.

Li Xuan nodded slightly, and he could feel Empress Wu's eyes lightly passing over him.

In the past, Dong Gong could only make a fuss about the first level of Liu Bu Lang, but with an imperial edict from the emperor, Dong Palace could directly make fuss about Liu Bu Lang.

As for the six ministers, that is not something that the East Palace can operate on.

Whether it is Dou Xuande, the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, Cui Zhiti, the Minister of the Ministry of Husbandry, Duan Baoxuan, the Minister of the Ministry of Punishments, Ouyang Tong, the Minister of the Ministry of War, Huang Rensu, the Minister of the Ministry of Industry, or even the newly appointed Minister of Rites, Wei Beibai, there are a lot of people of his own behind him.

Although Dong Gong helped Wei Daizi to be promoted to Minister of Rites, but if they were really stupid enough to think that they could control the Ministry of Rites, then Wei Daizi would teach them how to behave well.

Li Xuan lowered his head slightly, but it was enough.

The six ministers are figures on the stage. Once they appear, Empress Wu will win over them to show their goodwill. If they are not handled properly, Empress Wu will directly destroy them and remove them.

Then facing Empress Wu directly is not something they can do now.

Li Zhi glanced at the ministers, who bowed their heads. He nodded calmly, looked to the side, and said: "Duan Qing, Wang Qing, Yuan Qing."

"I'm here." Duan Baoxuan, Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, Wang Jishan, Minister of Dali Temple, and Yuan Jiazuo, Governor of Luo, all stood up.

Li Zhi said directly: "There are many meritorious nobles in and outside Luoyang now, and many of them are people who have committed crimes and are waiting to be pardoned. From today on, Duan Qing will be the leader, and all the departments will cooperate to thoroughly clean up the ground in Luoyang. All people who have committed crimes will be put in heavy shackles and displayed to the public."

"Here!" Duan Baoxuan, Wang Jishan, and Yuan Jiazuo all stood up and obeyed the order solemnly.

　I can’t find Zheng Guolin’s version of Dai Mianqi’s photo, so I have to make do with it.
