Happy Little Scholar

First came the respected Buddhist master, then the Prince Ning, who had a profound background, and then the noble princess of a country. Finally, even the emperor's imperial edict arrived. Li's eldest son and grandson, who had just been named the son of Chang'an County by His Majesty, were instantly He became the only and absolute protagonist in the scene, and no one, including the old lady herself, cared about her sixtieth birthday. "Tian Lai Novel"

Li Yi felt guilty about this, but the old lady didn't care. Instead, she was even happier than before, as if this matter was more important than her sixtieth birthday.

This is not surprising. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, although the country has been in turmoil for decades, it is generally relatively stable. It is almost impossible to earn a title by relying on military merit. At most, it is just rewards for officers and land. .

Today, the emperor has been in power for more than ten years, and he has deliberately reduced the titles. There are only a few knights. This is the first person in Jing County who has been awarded the title of viscount in recent years.

What this represents is naturally self-evident. For the sake of the continuation of the Li family, the old lady cannot give him anything more, so she feels guilty. Now it seems that what the Li family can give him cannot compare to the emperor's favor. ?

What could be better than receiving the favor of the Holy One?

There was such a big commotion at the old lady's birthday banquet, so Li Yi would naturally be overwhelmed by all kinds of questions during the banquet.

Of course, this included what was going on between him, the crown prince, and the princess, and what the achievements mentioned in the imperial edict were, and what they specifically meant...

Li Yi also briefly talked about how he met His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the princess in Qing'an Mansion, and did a few things unintentionally. He didn't expect it to be of such great use to the country. As for chatting with the emperor in the garden, he mentioned it by the way. For their sake, Li Yi didn't mention a word about him being brought back from hell.

Li Mingze and others only knew that Li Yi's position as county captain was personally conferred by His Majesty, but they did not go into details. Today, His Majesty cherishes talents. Because of an article, there are countless students from poor families who were granted permission to enter the officialdom. They also Just think of it as one of those things.

However, with the arrival of the imperial edict of knighthood tonight, everyone finally understood how much His Majesty valued him.

However, no one knows where the twenty-year-old Viscount will go in the future. The Li family is still too small for him after all.

Li Mingze thought for a moment, looked at Li Yi and said: "I was still hesitating before whether to leave the position of the head of the family to you in the future. Now it seems that for the sake of the Li family, the position of the head of the family is in your hands. As expected, it is still most suitable."

When Fang heard this, her face changed drastically, but she just lowered her head and said nothing.

Things are different now. For a county man who is less than twenty years old, even if his husband gives him the position of head of the Li family, no one in the Li family will object.

The expression on the old lady's face remained unchanged, and she looked at Li Yi in the same way, obviously supporting her son's decision.

At the same table, the core members of the Li family were not surprised by the words of the head of the family. If a family wants to continue for a long time, maintain prosperity and avoid decline, it requires the unremitting efforts of every generation of the head of the family.

Although Li Minghan is the eldest son, he will not be a good head of the family. It can be seen from the fact that he completely ignored the family and eloped with an ordinary woman. Over the years, if the current head of the family had not worked hard, the Li family would have declined into disgrace. It's far worse than it is now.

However, the younger generation of the Li family, including the son of the head of the family, does not have any outstanding figures. Not only does it not have the ability to lead the Li family to regain its glory, it does not even have the ability to maintain the status quo.

At this time, it is obviously the best choice to hand over the future of the Li family to Li Yi, who has a holy family and is closely related to the royal family.

Moreover, he is the grandson of Li's family, so everything is justified. Neither outsiders nor the Li family are qualified to comment on this.

Liu Ruyi looked at the crowd and then at Li Yi. Seeing that the atmosphere was unusually quiet, she took back the chopsticks she had stretched out.

Being stared at by everyone, Li Yi suddenly smiled and said: "Second uncle, I was born and raised in Qing'an Mansion. In fact, before coming to the capital, I just wanted to wait for my grandma to celebrate her birthday. I have never wanted to be the head of the Li family. If it weren’t for His Majesty’s imperial edict, I would have left in two days at most.”

Fang, who was opposite, raised his head slightly when he heard this. There was a flash of disbelief in his eyes.

What else did Li Mingze want to say? Li Yi said again: "Like my father, I am not the head of the family. If the Li family is in my hands, I am afraid it will decline faster. My second uncle is now in his prime. The Li family is in your hands." Under the management of the company, it will not decline. As for the future - that is Yingjie and Yingcai's business. "

Li Yi is not modest. He likes to live a small life of daily necessities, food, rice, oil and salt. He has everything he wants, a small ring, and everything is home. He is confident that he can live such a life well.

As for being the head of a big family, he devotes himself to the prosperity and decline of the family every day, works hard, and calculates the past. I am afraid that he will die in less than two years. What is the meaning of such a life? It is even worse than the intrigues in the officialdom. Be scary.

Under the pressure of Chen Guogong's government, the Li family could still be managed like this. His second uncle was suitable for this line of work. For the sake of the Li family and himself, Li Yi felt it was necessary to put these words first. illustrate.

Fang raised her head and looked at Li Yi blankly, the look of shock in her eyes getting stronger.

He never thought about being the head of the Li family, never thought about taking away everything that should belong to him from them?

So, in his eyes, what she did was actually a joke, no, many jokes?

Title, royal favor, friendship with the prince, princess and even Master Tanyin, these things that are far more important than the Li family, are within his reach, pitiful that she still deeply believes that he has some plot against the Li family?

After she was completely relieved, Fang lowered her head again, her face flushed with shame, wishing there was a hole in the ground to crawl into.

Li Mingze frowned slightly, Li Yi's words were very firm, not only would he not be the head of the family now, but also would not be in the future, Yingjie and Yingcai were mediocre, and after a hundred years, the decline of the Li family was inevitable, unless he could take the Li family to a higher level during his lifetime.

However, this matter was almost impossible to achieve in his hands. A viscount with no real status was far inferior to the real county lord conferred by His Majesty himself. If his title could be promoted again, the status of the Li family would also rise, but the premise of all this was that he was willing to become the head of the Li family.

Seeing Li Yi smiling but with an unusually firm attitude, Li Mingze didn't say anything more. This matter still needed to be considered carefully.
