From the afternoon, the number of visitors to the palace gradually increased, and in the evening, it surged to the extent that it was staggering, so that the banquet originally placed in the central hall of the palace was not enough, and more seats had to be set up in the side hall and back hall, and the guests could not be arranged to sit on the ground in the open air.

The reason why it is so lively is also very simple, the king of Hedong has been promoted again.

It is not accurate to say that he was promoted, it should be said that the God Emperor felt that this grandson was outstanding, and he added a small burden, that is, the affairs of the officials of the inspection school.

At noon, the Chinese envoy and Luantai officials went directly to the palace to announce the decree, Li Tong really had mixed feelings after receiving the order, and felt more and more that his grandmother was really making the best use of her talents, and did not play cards according to common sense.

The member of the Ministry of Rites has a very important responsibility, that is, the case acceptance record should be seen auspicious, distinguished, etc., and the surface is heard. Earlier, the auspicious Luoshui treasure map was operated by Wu Chengsi from beginning to end when he was the official secretary of the Chun Dynasty.

Li Tong was ordered to inspect the affairs of the spring officials, not that he served as the spring officials, but he had the power to deal with related affairs. As for the most popular auspicious rui in the government and the opposition at the moment, it is naturally the "Buddha Says Treasure Rain Sutra", which is related to all things.

Since Li Tong's dedication, there have been many people in the government and the opposition who seek good fortune, and Li Tong has little to do with this matter after that. But with the appointment of his grandmother, he was closely associated with this matter. I even have the right to share the pork: whether the rui you offer is real or not, and what level it should belong to, I have the final say!

In other words, those who want to seek happiness with this need to have a good relationship with the young king first, otherwise they will brush you down in minutes.

In this regard, Li Tong also had to sigh that his grandmother arranged him in this position, which was really insidious, making full use of his complex and sensitive identity. Not to mention anything else, some people want to offer Rui, but they don't dare to act because of face and fear of criticism, but now Rui Ying is in charge of all things by the Li family's bloodline, and he is so happy to dismantle his own platform, so what do others have to worry about?

Before serving as the young eunuch of Lintai, he was just a nobleman, but now that he is inspecting the official affairs of the school, Li Tong can be regarded as having real power in his hands, and it can even be said that he has the right to vote for Ye Luzi. It can really be said that you can lick to the end, and you have everything.

Because of this, the number of visitors in the afternoon surged, so that the palace could not withstand it for a while.

Not to mention that ordinary people tend to be inflammatory, even the eunuch Shen Junliang personally visited him in the afternoon, for no other reason, Shen Junliang is also an old tree sprouting, and the Hongwen Pavilion matter is sentenced.

Although it is still a matter of the pavilion, the Hongwen Pavilion is where the Ouchi Book Collection is located, and the information revealed from this is that Shen Junliang's political life has resurged, and he has once again entered the vision of the God Emperor. He already has the qualifications to serve as the prime minister, but now there is a trend of salted fish turning over, and it is only in a blink of an eye to pay homage to the prime minister again.

"The Emperor of God is favorable, and the king's talent can be boasted, this so-called upper and lower get along, both honorable and harmonious. The king no longer has a secret treasure, but will benefit the community with his talents, and the spirit is far away, which is really gratifying. ”

Hearing Shen Junliang say this, Li Tong just laughed, is this a shame? Lao Tzu has a golden hoe in I want to planing my Tang Dynasty, which door is the benefit of the society? It's just that I just received a Hongwen Pavilion matter, and I haven't let you be the prime minister and enter the History Museum.

In addition to Shen Junliang, Shen Yanqi, Qiao Zhizhi and others he invited early in the morning had also entered the mansion. Several people did not dare to slack off when they saw Shen Junliang in the hall, and they all stepped forward to salute, especially Shen Junliang, who was also a direct bachelor of Hongwen Pavilion, and now Shen Junliang has also become his direct superior, so the ceremony is more solemn.

In the evening, there are more guests, and it is not possible to visit them one by one. Li Tong sat in the middle hall, and when he saw the surging heads outside, he couldn't help but feel for a while that his grandmother was really not the one who suffered, she had just rewarded him with some goods and sent so many guests.

Last night, there were less than 100 guests, and he had already spent tens of thousands of dollars, and if he was invited tonight, the cost would not soar several times.

However, these guests were also very interested, and many of them simply handed in the prayer post, and after a short time in front of the hall, they took their leave and stayed for a short time. With this posting friendship, if you encounter it on the scene in the future, you will have something to talk about.

But even so, there were still as many as two or three hundred guests who stayed in the house after dark. With so many people, it is difficult for Li Tong to talk and get acquainted one by one, but he just told his family to prepare meals as soon as possible and not to neglect the guests. As for himself, he stayed in the hall to accompany a few important guests.

"Personnel are different day and night, and today I can't be treated elegantly, so please don't blame the bachelor."

With so many guests, in fact, it can really be said that there is friendship, but it is only Shen Yan. This is a friend that Li Tong has met since he was sleepy, so he treats Shen Yanqi a little closer than others.

Shen Yanqi laughed after hearing this: "The king said this, although it is polite, but it is about friendship. But to be able to see each other often, what is the sound disturbance. Yushu has been silent for a long time, because public opinion has been neglected, and everyone is blind. Now the hall is full of guests, looking up to the style of the famous king, if you are only greedy for the simplicity and elegance of the old days, tired of today's scenery, and lonely and lonely, how can you talk about friendship. ”

That being said, Li Tong still feels that some adjustments should be made regarding the reception of guests.

Whether it is the expression of his grandmother's attitude, or his own needs, there will be many days when there will be many guests in the future. Now the palace is the main place of hospitality, but the palace itself still has business arrangements, and it is not a very elegant place.

So he planned to build another garden to receive guests. As for the location, you can choose the west garden of his royal residence, where there are refreshing gardens, flourishing flowers and trees, and the three kings' mansions are in one place, and the back garden can be completely opened up and built into an independent amusement garden, with a large space and no disturbance to normal living and life.

Similar to Pei Du, the famous minister of the Tang Dynasty, there is Jixianfang Mansion Garden in Luoyang City, and there is Lvyetang outside Luoyang City, as a gathering place for Luoyang Shilin literati at that time, such as Bai Juyi, Liu Yuxi and others, there are many poems related to this circulation.

Li Tong dared to think like this, naturally because he realized that his grandmother really needed a leading figure in Shilin to speak out for him. For example, the two Zhang brothers in the middle and late Wu Zhou Dynasty, the group of Zhuying scholars they organized played a significant role in both literary development and political fields.

Originally, the North Gate Bachelor that Wu Zetian relied on has basically fallen apart now. Some of the people who were promoted later were far from reaching a decisive influence in Shilin.

With "The Buddha Says the Treasure Rain Sutra" in front, Li Tong can be said to have greatly eliminated his grandmother's suspicion in terms of political position. Even if he is famous in Shilin, he will only help his grandmother to wave the flag, as long as it does not obviously show signs of leaning towards his third or fourth uncle, his grandmother should be happy to see this.

Thinking further, even if it is Li Wu after the establishment of Wu Zhou, Li Tong is only a second-tier player. Even if he cultivated some climate in Shilin, it would not pose a direct threat to his grandmother's power.

Unless his grandmother is determined to pass on the throne to her son or nephew, she will take action to get rid of his restless grandson. But if his grandmother really had this kind of awareness, there would not have been a Shenlong coup d'état in history.

Of course, if Li Tong really wants to stand on his own, he still has to face a crisis, that is, the joint strangulation of the Li faction and the Wu faction, just like the Zhang brothers who were killed in the late Wu Zhou period. However, now, the political logic on the scene has not yet entered that step, and Li Tong has time to rise up.

Now he is his grandmother's kissing little milk dog, and he was ordered to snar Shilin's tongue, and his grandmother has helped him to hold up his posture so much, if he still doesn't dare to do it, or if he can't do it well, it's his own problem, even if he is killed in the next year, he will have nothing to do with people.

Moreover, Li Tong also has an idea, that is, to pull his aunt Princess Taiping to do it together.

However, he also understands that although his aunt has not fully awakened the bloodline ability now, she is by no means a peaceful person, and when it comes to the advantages are even greater than him, he wants to join forces with his aunt to start a career, and he has to guard against being occupied by the birds.

Therefore, in the short term, Li Tong does not plan to have any substantive communication with his aunt, so he should run a few steps to determine his advantages.

Li Tong was still thinking about it here, and heard Qiao Zhizhi laughing in the seat: "Today's appearance is disturbing, although there is no old love to tell, but there is a deep desire. Silk and bamboo are new but can be appreciated, why should the diet be envied. I wonder if the king in the hall today has a new voice to comfort the hungry and thirsty? ”

When everyone in the hall heard this, they all clapped their hands and asked together, Li Tong raised his hand and pressed it and said with a smile: "There are ancient poems and new ones, and there are many disagreements with the old tunes. ”

After everyone heard this, they even clamored and shouted, even Shen Junliang was infected by this atmosphere, and said with a smile: "The king has good lyrics, and the old man has already heard of it. The elegant guests present, the syllabus of the bachelor, the look of the supplement, the king has become jade, and the bricks and tiles of the group are stacked, and they are not Huazhang, which is also known as elegant things. ”

Li Tong took care of it, and when he heard Shen Junliang say this, he no longer held back, and raised his hand to let Yang Siqiao, who was standing at the table, hurriedly return to the palace to get the manuscript of the poem, and handed it to Shen Junliang in the banquet: "Treat the eunuch axe." ”

Shen Junliang opened the manuscript of the poem, first read the title of the poem "Luoyang Daughter's Travel", then looked at the young king and smiled: "The famous king's demeanor is amazing in the world, Luoyang's daughter is not chasing?" ”

Hearing that Shen Junliang opened his mouth and put on his clothes, Li Tong just smiled lightly and accepted the ridicule.

Shen Junliang was still smiling at the poem, but when his eyes fell on the content of the poem, his demeanor gradually became solemn. When everyone in the hall saw this scene, they were even more curious, but because of Shen Jun's high esteem, they didn't dare to speak out and urge.

After a long while, Shen Junliang looked away from the manuscript of the poem, and saw that everyone was looking at him with blank eyes, smiled apologetically and raised his hand to pass the manuscript of the poem to Shen Yanqi, and sighed: "The virtual long Jiazi is difficult to call it complete, and I am at ease with it." Looking at the king's poem, there are two hatreds in my heart, one hates the poetry is not good, and the other hates the passing of Shao Nian! ”

Hearing Shen Junliang's exclamation, everyone was even more curious, and when Shen Yanqi took the poem manuscript in his hand, someone clapped the case and shouted: "Please sing!" ”

After hearing this, Shen Yanqi did not refuse, so he stood up from the seat with a smile, holding a scroll of poetry in his hand and chanting in his mouth: "Luoyang's daughter lives in the door, and she can be more than fifteen faces." The beloved Yule rode a horse......"

With the sound of its chanting, there was originally a sound of laughter in the hall, but after a few couplets into the ears, the noise gradually subsided, until there was no more noise except for the sound of poetry.

Yang Juren entered the palace with the crowd and was arranged in the side corridor seat, seeing that the palace was full of guests, and the middle hall was full of laughter and laughter, and for a while his heart was also worried and fearful, and he had no courage to speak in the hall.

"Huh? Why is there no human language in the middle hall? ”

"It's Master Shen singing the king's new poems......"

On the seat closer to the middle hall, someone had already left the seat and got up under the door, and when he heard the discussion behind him, he turned his head to explain, but before he finished speaking, he was patted on the back and reprimanded: "Silence! ”

After hearing this, all the guests in the side corridor were also curious, and they all got up and went to the middle hall. Seeing this, Yang Juren also followed the crowd over, but there were already several figures in front of him, and he couldn't hear the sound in the hall for a long time, and he stepped on the fence and climbed the pillar on tiptoe, so he could vaguely see the situation in the hall clearly.

I saw a young nobleman sitting on the upper seat under the lights, wearing a wide silk shirt and a brocade half-arm, with a handsome appearance and a comfortable demeanor. Rao is Yang Juren came to the door in a negative mood, and when he saw the young queen sitting in the hall, he couldn't help but murmur: "Such a character, such a noble, if you come to the door to force that lady, I am afraid that the grudge will be deeper......"

Before he finished speaking, a series of cheers had already sounded in the middle hall, and the sound rushed straight to the outer corridor, and the warm atmosphere frightened Yang Juren to stand unsteadily, and fell directly outside the fence.
