Chapter 294: Uncle Yang
In the Luoyang Palace, Li Longji is already preparing to marry Yang Yuhuan.
In order to be able to marry the immortal family smoothly, Li Longji was extremely cautious in handling this marriage, for fear that there would be a deviation in any link, which would be disliked by the Nine Heavens Xuannu deity.
Everything is carried out according to the number of ceremonies for marrying the queen, but when it comes to the issue of Yang Yuhuan's specific title, it is a little difficult, and Li Linfu, who is in charge of this matter, does not dare to make a claim, so he has to come to ask Li Longji.
“…… Your Majesty, what should you do when you see this immortal entering the palace? If it is low, it is disrespectful to the immortal family, but if it is the respect of the queen...... I beg your pardon for taking the liberty of this matter. ”
Li Linfu cautiously bowed his head and leaned his ears.
Li Longji was only accompanied by Gao Lishi, and this matter was that the three of them closed the door to discuss and did not communicate with outsiders.
Li Longji himself was a little hesitant, muttering to himself: "Isn't it okay to directly crown the queen?" ”
As he spoke, he looked to the side, wanting to hear Colliers' opinion.
Gao Lishi observed his words and saw that the emperor was very hesitant about this matter, so he took a relatively neutral attitude and said: "Your Majesty, the queen wants to be the mother of the world, and if the immortal family becomes the queen, this will manage the affairs of the inner palace...... I'm afraid it's not so convenient, and Concubine Hui is ...... Will there be any objections? ”
Even if Gao Lishi is biased towards the emperor and belongs to the emperor's trust, he still has to worry about his relationship with Concubine Wu Hui.
Yang Yuhuan entered the palace, more like a symbolic symbol, the emperor has passed this freshness, and he still has to return to Concubine Wu Hui after all, helping Yang Yuhuan now is tantamount to offending Concubine Wu Hui, isn't it unpleasant for himself?
Li Longji frowned and said, "What does this matter have to do with Concubine Hui?" I have so many concubines, can she take care of it? ”
Having said that, but Li Longji himself hesitated, he is an infatuated species, although he is now thinking about Yang Yuhuan, but he has a connection with Concubine Wu Hui in his heart, and in history, Li Longji is also because Concubine Wu Hui is dead and needs comfort, so he will empathize and say goodbye to Yang Yuhuan.
Li Linfu asked: "Then Your Majesty, do you want to crown Xuannu Niangniang as the queen?" ”
"Well...... this"
When it came to the end, Li Longji really had no choice and continued to look at Gao Lishi.
Now Colliers can be regarded as completely clear.
The emperor didn't want to directly crown Yang Yuhuan as the queen, because the name was not right, it was best to reflect Yang Yuhuan's identity and respect, and not affect the stability of the inner palace garden.
"Why don't you make Xuannu Niangniang a concubine?" Colliers asked tentatively.
Li Longji inhaled hard, and the embarrassed look on his face was slightly relieved, as if this proposal not only met his expectations, but also balanced the relationship between all parties in the palace, which was really good.
But Li Longji didn't agree immediately, and asked Li Linfu again: "Li Qing, what do you think?" ”
Li Linfu is a human spirit, so he couldn't see what Li Longji meant, so he hurriedly smiled and said, "Gao Gong's discussion is very good...... There is no queen in the palace for a long time, even if she is a noble concubine, she will definitely be crowned with an inner curtain, which will not damage His Majesty's respect for the immortal family, and can also make the immortal family feel His Majesty's sincerity. ”
This is clearly against the will.
As we all know, only the empress can be regarded as the emperor's legal wife, and the children born to other concubines cannot be regarded as concubines. Since the twelfth year of Kaiyuan, Li Longji abolished the queen as a concubine, and the harem has no owner. Since you are going to marry the immortal family now, you don't have a queen, of course, you can only show your sincerity after being sealed directly.
But now it's just a concubine, and then the first concubine is at best, which is not only fooling the subjects, but also fooling the gods.
If there is really a Nine Heavens Xuannu descending to earth, hearing this conversation, it is estimated that a string of thunder will directly descend, splitting the three monarchs and ministers to pieces.
But now the opinions of Gao Lishi and Li Linfu are in the hands of Li Longji.
In his opinion, giving Yang Yuhuan as a concubine can not only reflect his respect for the immortal family, but also make his inner house stable, which can be said to be a perfect suggestion, and there is no need to think about it anymore.
"Then this matter is decided, Lux, you immediately arrange someone to do it." Li Longji smiled and twisted his beard and said, "Li Qing, how many days will the Xuannu Temple be completed?" ”
Li Linfu saw that the emperor was anxious, even if the construction period was very urgent, he could only stubbornly say: "At most, it will only be three days." ”
"Well, the entry of the immortals into the palace will be scheduled to take place in three days, and the edict will be issued to the subjects of the world, so that they can pray to the heavens together with me, and I want them to know that the marriage between me and the immortal family is all for the people of the world, and they are not selfish." Li Longji said unashamedly.
Li Linfu hurriedly received the order, suddenly thought of something, and asked, "Your Majesty, this Xuannu Niangniang...... There is a younger brother in the world, that is the Yang Tianshi who has entered the palace many times, you see this person...... How should it be arranged? ”
Gao Lishi glanced at Li Linfu, as if he felt that the other party should not mention Yang Yun at this time, just like Yang Yun was an insignificant little person.
Since Yang Yuhuan entered the palace as an immortal, her younger brother in the world is insignificant.
But Li Linfu has his selfish intentions, and now he is facing the encirclement of Zhang Jiuling's faction in the DPRK, and he is a mountain in front of him in favor of flattering Gaolishi, and he has to cultivate his own power to compete with these opponents in the DPRK, and Yang Yun, as the younger brother of the new concubine, will be the uncle of the Tang Dynasty in the future, and he will inevitably be the upstart in the political forces of the Tang Dynasty in the future.
Li Longji would not care about the factional disputes between the courtiers, Li Linfu mentioned Yang Yun, he didn't think about it and said: "Since he is the younger brother of the concubine, that is my brother-in-law, and the uncle of the country is also...... Since he is the uncle of the country, of course, he must be knighted. For the time being, let him get an errand to serve the imperial history, and let him learn more. ”
The emperor's words surprised both Gao Lishi and Li Linfu.
I thought that the emperor would casually give Yang Yun an official position as a close minister, which would not be too high, just enough glory, but who knew that he would give him a "history of serving the emperor".
The Tang Dynasty served the imperial history and belonged to the Taiwan Academy.
The Imperial History Observatory is divided into the Taiwan Yuan, the Palace Yuan, and the Procuratorate Yuan, which is the supervisory body that is in charge of the central hundred officials, participates in the trial of Dali Temple and hears major cases handed over by the emperor.
There are six people in the Taiwan Yuan, who are in charge of picketing hundreds of bureaucrats, impeaching lawlessness, trying cases of the emperor's special orders, and dividing the court with the Zhongshu people in Menxia Province and Zhongshu Province to accept unjust lawsuits, known as the "Little Three Divisions". There is also a special person in charge of the daily chores of the Imperial History Bureau, which has the highest status and the heaviest authority in the imperial history.
The first official given by the emperor to Yang Yun has the power to supervise hundreds of officials, and he is still the uncle of the country, so needless to say, those who will be officials in the future will have to stutter a little bit of Yang Yun, especially those who are not clean, they must establish a good relationship with Yang Yun, so as to avoid being impeached.
When Li Linfu heard the emperor's words, he was overjoyed and felt that his goal had been achieved.
Gao Lishi was a little puzzled: "Your Majesty, will giving Yang Tianshi such a high official position as soon as he comes up cause dissatisfaction among the people below?" He had no ability or experience in the field. ”
"That's why I let him learn, I let his sister be a concubine, if he is mean, what will outsiders think? The matter is so decided, and it can be handled according to the regulations. ”
Li Longji took out a non-negotiable tone, and waved his hand to mean that there was no need to mention it again, as if even this official position was a disadvantage to Yang Yun, and he wanted to expose the matter as soon as possible.
……
……
Li Linfu was very happy, he saw that the emperor valued Yang Yun, if Yang Yuhuan was like a fish in water in the palace, it would be easy to suppress Concubine Wu Hui's prestige.
In this way, it doesn't make much sense for him to bet on Concubine Wu Hui at this time.
After all, there is a symbol on Yang Yuhuan's body that cannot be shaken, that is, the incarnation of the Nine Heavens Xuannu in the world, even if Concubine Wu Hui uses all means, it is impossible for Yang Yuhuan to fall out of favor, but Yang Yuhuan is young and beautiful and supported by the identity of the immortal family, and he can casually suppress the old and decrepit Concubine Wu Hui.
"If I tell the little Taoist priest surnamed Yang this news, he will not be grateful to me? Don't you obediently follow my orders in the future? ”
Li Linfu returned to the mansion and wondered whether to go to Yang Yun in person, but suddenly felt that it was inappropriate.
"I've only met this kid three or two times, and I forgot about making an appointment with him when I went to Dakong to watch the fighting method before, this kid won't hold grudges, right?"
Li Linfu has realized that in fact, he has "offended" Yang Yun, on the day of Zhang Gao and Benbo Taibao's fight, he first showed enough courtesy and invited Yang Yun to go with him the next day, which is obviously a plus, but because he coveted the tenderness of the concubine, he got up late the next day and went out in a hurry, so he forgot the agreement and set off directly to Dakongguan, which is equivalent to saying that he did not fulfill his promise.
This is worse than not going to Yang Yun and not agreeing with Yang Yun in advance.
"Father, I heard from someone that you want to go to see the little Taoist priest surnamed Yang in person? If you really have something, why don't you send someone to call him? ”
Li Kong'er heard that Li Linfu had returned to the house and arranged for a carriage to prepare to go out, so he came over to inquire.
Li Linfu frowned and said, "Why are you still called a little Taoist?" Now his sister is going to be a concubine, and he will be the uncle of the Tang Dynasty in the future, so he must not be rude. ”
Li Kong'er disagreed: "What is Uncle Guo?" Uncle Datang abounds. ”
"What do you know, in addition to his sister, does Datang have any other concubines? With his identity, he is a first-class honor in the court, and His Majesty also gave him the official position of serving the imperial history, and even if his father sees him in the future, he must be afraid of three points, don't be disrespectful to him, affect his father's plan...... Fortunately, his identity and official position were won for him by his father, and he thought that he would sell his father's thin noodles. Li Linfu said proudly.
"Huh? Listening to the meaning of your father's words, are you going to associate with this demon in the future, and even prepare to form an alliance with him? Li Kong'er was shocked.
Li Linfu was stunned for a moment, and then scolded: "Bastard, let you not mention the Taoist priest, you actually intensified?" But it is inconvenient for Father to go to see him now, and if you are all right to-day, go in your place for Father, and tell him of the glory that I have won for him before Your Majesty. ”
Li Kong'er was reluctant: "My daughter doesn't want to go." ”
"If you don't go, you have to go, don't underestimate him, he is not only a Taoist heavenly master respected by His Majesty, but also the younger brother of Xuannu Niangniang's stand-in in the world, and now he is also an uncle of the country, and he is in a high position as soon as he enters the officialdom, these layers of identity are very respected, and he wants to further establish an intimate relationship with him for his father in the future, and he can't let Zhang Qujiang and them seize the opportunity."
Li Linfu mentioned Zhang Jiuling, clenched his fists and gritted his teeth.
Li Kong'er frowned and said, "Is there any other way for my father to further establish an intimate relationship with him?" ”
Li Linfu looked at Li Kong'er when he heard this, his eyes narrowed slightly, as if he already had an idea in his heart.
When Li Kong'er saw this look, she suddenly felt a chill in her back, and without waiting for Li Linfu to explain, she hurriedly saluted: "If the father has orders, the daughter will do it." ”
