It has been several days since the last incident happened in the court hall, and today is the first day of the new year, the day when the court meeting is held. Therefore, early in the morning, I saw many official sedan chairs starting to move towards the palace in a hurry. It was much more lively than usual.

In the officialdom, there is no shortage of well-informed people, and many things that happened in the court will soon be known to everyone.And what happened in the court a few days ago, one by one, was a big event that shocked the court and the public.First, Yushi Zhongcheng impeached the prince, followed by General Youwei, Duke Lu, and Hou Jun gathered in the court, and were directly beaten and seriously injured.Afterwards, an inexplicable prince was brought out, and Yushi Zhongcheng Jia Zhiyuan was thrown into prison.These things soon became known to the government and the public.

However, the most curious thing is why a prince suddenly appeared here.Those in the know kept silent, and those who didn't know asked about it one after another, and then talked about it, saying everything.It is indeed a rare thing for a prince who has no title and no name.Everyone is waiting for an explanation from the royal family.

"Military division, tell me, will His Majesty mention the matter of becoming king today?"

Cheng Yaojin was still standing behind Li Ji, and asked Li Ji in a low voice.

"It's very possible. After all, this matter is already raging. If it continues to be so anonymous, it will be unseemly and unruly, and it will not be good for His Majesty's reputation."

As soon as Li Ji heard it, he knew what Cheng Yaojin was talking about.Those of them who came out of Wagangzhai have very deep affection.Therefore, regarding Cheng Yaojin's question, Li Ji thought about it for a while and then whispered to Cheng Yaojin.

"Hehe, King Feng, Your Majesty must have a headache. That Lord, he likes to be a high-ranking official. He has a good reputation, and he never knows what the rules are. Oh, do you think His Majesty will give him an official position? It would be terrible if that was the case. My God..."

Thinking of becoming a knight, Cheng Yaojin immediately remembered the matter of Li Yuanba and Yuwen Chengdu.But then, he started to get anxious.Because, he suddenly thought.Will the emperor grant Li Feng an official position?If they were granted official positions, it would be difficult for them generals.

It is absolutely impossible to grant Li Feng an official position, a civil servant, and he must be a military officer.If this is the official position of military officer.Then it will be implicated with these generals, when the time comes.Still don't know what's going on.

"Well, no, probably not. If this is a king. According to the usual practice, the fief must be rewarded, and then leave Chang'an and go to the fief. It's okay. It's okay. I just don't know. I will fight in the future. Will this master He will go to the battlefield. I think he will go there ten times out of ten, hehe, when the time comes, it will be fun."

Suddenly, Cheng Yaojin felt relieved again, and after that, he even thought of fighting.He was sure that as long as there was a war, that violent war maniac would definitely go, and by then, the fun would indeed be great.

"Stop dreaming, it is imperative to be crowned king. However, His Majesty will definitely not let him leave Chang'an. Who knows what big troubles will be caused when he goes outside. Also, just follow the situation last time Look, his temperament has changed a lot. Forget it, who knows about this kind of thing, let's wait and see how it changes."

Even though Li Ji was extremely intelligent, he was uncertain about these things.Meeting such an unusual person, the emperor had no choice but to play his cards differently from the usual routine.

"Hehe, what the military adviser said is true, I don't want to be like that old monkey boy, old Cheng."

Cheng Yaojin very much agrees with Li Ji's words of waiting and watching.This reminded him of Hou Junji's miserable state last time in the hall, he couldn't get out of bed after three months of self-cultivation.

As time slowly came, the emperor finally appeared on the dragon chair.After a while of visiting rituals, there was silence in the hall, and everyone was waiting for the emperor to speak.

"Come here, declare the decree"

Sitting on the high dragon chair, Li Shimin first inspected it carefully, and then immediately spoke.As soon as his words fell, an eunuch stepped forward, opened the imperial decree in his hand, and began to read.

"The fourth son of Gaozu, my younger brother, Li Feng, named Yuanba, has been extraordinary and brave since childhood... He has been favored by the heavens, and he has returned safely. Therefore, he is specially named the King of Yong, and he will not report when he enters the Forbidden Palace, and he will not face the emperor. Kneeling... I heard that there is a famous craftsman in Zhongnan Village, which is an auspicious place, and it is specially given to the Palace of King Yong... The mansion of King Yong is far away from Beijing, with its back against Zhongnan, and it is specially allowed to form a guard army for the palace …..”

Sure enough, as many people expected, the emperor really wanted to confer titles on Li Feng today.However, when everyone finished listening to the content of the imperial decree, they all gasped.This imperial decree is really unusual, and three charters came at once.

The first dispensation exempted Li Feng from all etiquette matters.It's said in the imperial decree that you don't need to be notified to enter the palace, you can enter if you want.When seeing the emperor, there is no need to bow and kneel.May I ask, is there any etiquette in the world that is more important than the emperor's ceremony?

The second franchise is to directly turn the Jianghu village into Li Feng's private domain.This is not like those fiefdoms, but completely belongs to Li Feng's own territory. Haven't you heard that this is the residence of the mansion?That means that the entire border of the Craftsman Village belongs to Li Feng's mansion.

And the third franchise is even more exaggerated, directly authorizing Li Feng to form a royal guard army, although I don't know how many people there are, but there must be no shortage.Although, each prince's mansion has a marriage mansion and a marriage tent inner mansion, as well as a prince's guard.However, compared with others, it is far behind.

In short, in a word, with this imperial decree, Jianghu Village became a country within a country.Except for the emperor, whoever got there had to take a detour.

"Your Majesty, such a reward is not in line with the rules."

"Yes, Your Majesty, the etiquette of the monarch and his ministers is the law of heaven, and there are fixed numbers for the number of guards in the prince's mansion. If you change it at will, it will not conform to the rules."

Sure enough, as soon as the imperial decree was read, someone immediately stood up and spoke.For such a situation, Li Shimin had expected it a long time ago, so it was not surprising.The moment the imperial decree was read, he began to stare at Wei Zheng closely.The only thing he was worried about was that this stubborn old man would beat him in this matter.

As for the remaining people, Li Shimin is not afraid, they don't have the temper to dare to really confront him.Their minds are not as pure as Wei Zheng's, and they have too many worries.The reason for coming out to speak is nothing more than to talk about things and achieve some goals by being unconventional.

"Wei Aiqing, what's your opinion?"

Seeing that Wei Zheng didn't say a word, Li Shimin's heart was settled.In fact, yesterday, Li Shimin discovered that since Wei Zheng met Li Feng, his behavior became a little weird.For this situation, Li Shimin somewhat guessed some reasons. Wei Zheng had been a member of Zhongshushe under Dou Jiande.As for his fourth younger brother, he led the troops to take care of Dou Jiande.

However, the only thing that Li Shimin couldn't understand was that Wei Zheng, who was not afraid of the sky and the earth, even dared to contradict himself as the emperor, seemed to be very afraid of the fourth brother's coming.

However, Li Shimin didn't care about these things now. After discovering this situation, he immediately began to question Wei Zheng.In the past, Wei Zheng was the first to object to this kind of thing. If he had no objection today, many people would naturally die down.

"Reporting to the Holy Majesty, I think that the Holy Majesty is very considerate. The Jianghu Village is close to Zhongnan. If it wants to defend, it needs to send more people. And King Yong, His Majesty's younger brother, is exempted from kneeling, which also shows that His Majesty I have a deep brotherhood with King Yong, although there is a slight inappropriateness in etiquette, but it is not a serious problem."

Wei Zheng was taken aback by Li Shimin's question. He didn't expect that the emperor would come to him on his own initiative.However, after careful consideration, he still supported the emperor's opinion.

He said this because of other considerations, but also out of consideration for the emperor.For a long time, the change of Xuanwu Gate had cast a shadow over the emperor's body, and he had a bad reputation for killing brothers and sisters.Coincidentally, I can take advantage of this incident to prove to the world that the emperor is not such a ruthless person.

When everyone heard it, when Wei Zheng mentioned the words "brotherly love", they all chose to shut up obediently.They also thought of the representative of this matter.If he objected again, wouldn't it mean that he wanted to trap the emperor in unrighteousness.

"Prince, you will be responsible for passing the decree."

After seeing Wei Zheng's words, everyone shut up obediently, and Li Shimin was also very happy.He didn't expect that Wei Zheng would sometimes be able to help him speak.Afterwards, he handed over the declaration of the decree to Li Chengqian.Who knows, will his fourth younger brother directly accept the imperial decree and just throw it in some corner?

After the court meeting was over, everyone started to leave the Tai Chi Hall one after another, and walked outside the palace.But at this moment, Cheng Yaojin quickly followed Wei Zheng.

"Hehe, Lord Wei, did you know King Yong before?"

Cheng Yaojin was really curious, Wei Zheng's performance these two days was not at all like his previous style.Therefore, I couldn't bear it anymore, ran forward and asked Wei Zheng with a smile.

Hearing the voice, Wei Zheng turned his head and saw that it was Cheng Yaojin, which was also very strange.He, Wei Zheng, is quite self-aware of his popularity.However, after hearing Cheng Yaojin's question, he also realized what this guy wanted to ask.

"Although I, Wei Zheng, am very conceited, I am not so conceited that I think I can reason with His Royal Highness King Yong."

Wei Zheng stopped, looked at Cheng Yaojin a few times, and then, leaving a word, ignored Cheng Yaojin and walked forward on his own.

"Hehe, this old man is quite self-aware. Well, but yes, it is indeed impossible to reason with that guy."

Cheng Yaojin couldn't recover from Wei Zheng's irrelevant answer for a long time.After thinking about it for a while, I finally figured out what Wei Zheng meant.Then, he looked at Wei Zheng who was going away and said in a low voice with a smile.
