Chapter 474: The Ministers Rank Their Seats

Although these jade artifacts are good, Li Mu has no intention of wearing them. For one, he has no interest in wearing jewelry, and he often works, wears jade and other things, and has to worry about whether it will be broken, so there is no need to waste that energy. As for the jade bracelet, it is even more impossible to wear. Four ladies and four jade bracelets, if they are divided among the wives, won't Wang Ou's identity be exposed instantly? The old fox could not fulfill his wish.

However, this incident reminded Li Mu that it seemed that he should prepare a set of jewelry for his wives. After all, he doesn't like to wear it, and he can't ask the ladies not to like it. How can women not like jewelry, although they can give money to buy it, but when they buy it, there is no handmade one to express their hearts. Besides, it's not that I don't have this skill, it's just to take some time.

Thinking like this, Li Mu wrote this matter down in the small book in his heart, and planned to complete it as soon as he was free.

After removing the remnants of the table, Li Mu went to pick up Wang Ou and told Li Zhien not to quarrel, and told Bai Qiaoqiao that if he came back too late, he would eat with Zhang Luo's family, and he didn't have to wait for him.

Today, the emperor invited hundreds of civil and military officials, and the security was naturally in place, and the entire Suzaku Street was under martial law. Five steps and one post, ten steps and one sentry, unless you don't want to live, it is impossible for someone to assassinate at this time. Li Mu didn't need to worry about his safety, he had the preferential treatment of riding a horse in the palace, and he didn't have to walk, he rode a high-headed horse into the palace in a leisurely manner.

Suddenly, there was a sound of galloping cars and horses behind him, and Li Mu couldn't help but look back. He originally thought that he was arrogant enough to ride a horse, but he didn't expect that there were still people who dared to gallop in the palace, even if it was the eldest grandson Wuji, he didn't have the courage, right?

Looking back, Li Mu smiled. It turned out to be the frame of the Li Jiacheng Gong in Longxi, which is not surprising, with this status, it is said that it is galloping, that is, the palace gate is demolished, and Li Shimin can only jump his feet, and dare not say a word.

The carriage galloped to Li Mu and slowed down, Li Yuan lifted the curtain and said, "Boy, come, ride with me." ”

Li Mu had no choice but to get off the horse and get into the carriage, and the horse had the little eunuch in front of him to take it away and feed, so he didn't have to worry about it.

"The Emperor Taishang celebrates the New Year...... All right. Li Mu got into the carriage and was smiling about to pay New Year's greetings, when he suddenly saw a Li Yourong sitting next to Li Yuan, and the expression on his face froze.

Li Yuan saw the change in his expression, and said unhappily: "Boy, what kind of expression do you have?" Can't my granddaughter attend today's banquet? He is the eldest princess of my Tang Dynasty, do you dare to underestimate her? ”

"Don't dare, don't dare, I haven't seen you for many days, and the beauty of the lord of Zhuzhu is even better, just now I suddenly saw it, I almost blinded the kid's dog eyes, and now I haven't eased up, so I was shocked, how dare I underestimate it!"

When Li Yourong heard this, although he knew that Li Mu was deliberately killing, he couldn't help but feel happy, wrinkled his nose and snorted lightly, ignoring him.

Li Yuan listened to it freely, glanced at the two young people, and said deliberately: "Boy, since you think my grandson is beautiful, it is better to be like this, I will be the master, let the people give marriage, how about you marry her?" ”

"No, no, no, no," Li Mu's head shook like a rattle, and said: "The kid has already married a wife, and there are three concubines, a proper scumbag with a big heart, and he is really not worthy of the county lord." As the county lord, you should marry the chief of a fanbang, so that you are worthy of the identity of the county lord! ”

Li Yourong was angry and reprimanded: "Who cares about you? I want to marry a big hero who stands up to the sky, what does it have to do with you, and I don't need you to arrange it! ”

Li Yuan also said: "If you don't want to, you don't want to, your mouth is too damaged, how can my granddaughter marry a different race?" Are those barbarians worthy of my granddaughter? ”

"The kid knows his mistakes, he knows his mistakes."

Li Mu grinned, and Li Yuan couldn't do anything about him. After a while, in front of the Taiji Palace, there were steps, how could not he drive up directly, Li Chengqian had been waiting for a long time, saw that the car stopped, rushed up, and shouted to the emperor's grandfather.

Li Mu jumped down from the car, Li Chengqian was stunned for a moment, whispered to the eldest brother, and then shouted again, respectfully inviting the imperial grandfather.

This time, Li Yourong got out of the car, Li Chengqian's expression was about to freeze, and suddenly saw her helping Li Yuan down, Li Chengqian hurriedly leaned over and grabbed Li Yuan's other arm: "Grandpa Huang, slow down, be careful of your step." ”

"I'm not old enough to walk." Li Yuan was still smiling in the car just now, and when he got out of the car, he looked solemn, glanced at it with a straight face, and said in a deep voice: "Why are you here to greet me, your father?" ”

"Father, he has some things to take care of."

"When you become an emperor, it's different, and there are things in the Chinese New Year's Eve!" Li Yuan threw down a sentence without being salty, and he couldn't tell that he was angry or not, so he walked ahead with his own care. Li Yourong followed step by step, Li Chengqian glanced at Li Mu and smiled helplessly. He still remembers that when he was very young, his imperial grandfather liked him very much, and when his father became emperor, the situation changed, and he never had a good face.

"Keep up, still stunned?"

Li Chengqian hurriedly followed, and Li Mu was also about to go up the steps, when suddenly his sleeve was pulled by someone. Li Mu looked back and saw that it was Xiao Chen's father-in-law who was driving just now, and couldn't help but be stunned: "Is there something wrong with Xiao Chen's father-in-law?" ”

"Something's going on." Xiao Chen's father-in-law was full of flattery, rubbed his hands, and took out something from his sleeve. Li Mu took a look, it was actually the largest denomination of glass chips in his Four Seas Gambling Workshop, this one, if he got the Four Seas Gambling Workshop, he could exchange it for a thousand yuan.

"Master Hou, please ......"

Li Mu didn't answer, and said with a smile: "Father-in-law Xiao Chen, you and I are acquaintances, and I am not short of money, so this set is exempt, right?" Do you have something to ask me? You can be blunt, if I can help, for the sake of friendship, I will also help, if I can't help, this thousand eight hundred will be useless. ”

"Oops...... Also. Xiao Chen's father-in-law laughed dryly, put the glass chips back, pursed his mouth, and said to Ai Ai, "Don't dare to delay the Hou Ye's time, let's just say it." A few days ago, I came to the palace to pay New Year's greetings to my godfather, and I heard my godbrothers say that they would set up a factory guard after the year, and they would pick people from the eunuchs in the palace. Master Hou, you also know my situation. In the past, when the county lord didn't come, I could still have the final say in heaven and earth, but after the county lord came...... I became an ornament, an errand runner, the taste is really uncomfortable, I heard about this, I want to beg Hou Ye, see if I can give me a certain errand in the factory guard, my kung fu is learned from my father-in-law, I dare not boast, but in my godbrothers, we are at least the top three. ”

I can't see that this little Chen Gonggong has also practiced the Sunflower Treasure Book!

Li Mu nodded happily and said, "I'm still thinking about a big deal, okay, I agreed." However, the Emperor Taishang, you have to say it yourself, I don't care, if you make sense of the Emperor Taishang's release, go to your father-in-law, and I will say hello. ”

Xiao Chen's father-in-law was happy, and he was about to kneel down for Li Mu, Li Mu helped him up and said with a smile: "You and I are acquaintances, so there is no need to be so polite." I'll give you another little suggestion, between the East Factory and the West Factory, you choose the West Factory, I won't say the reason, I can't pit you. ”

"Master Xie mentions, I remember!"

Li Mu waved his hand, turned around and entered the main hall.

……

This banquet was the first time since Li Shimin ascended the throne. It just so happens that there is money in the pocket, and it is understandable to waste it appropriately. However, the Taiji Hall is so big that it must not be able to seat all the officials, so two side halls were opened at the same time. The officials of the six departments below the fifth rank can only eat in the side hall, and the officials above the fifth rank are qualified to sit in the Taiji hall.

Li Mu, as the military marquis of Congsanpin and the minister in charge of the internal affairs government of Congsanpin, is naturally qualified to enter the main hall. He glanced around, saw no one arranging a seat, and sat down behind a large pillar in the corner. His plan was to order a meal first, and when the banquet was halfway through and no one noticed it, he would take the opportunity to slip away. In the first year of coming to Datang, he still wanted to be with his family.

I just sat down, and my ass is still hot. Father-in-law Gao came out, Li Mu hid behind the big pillar and aimed, only to see Father-in-law Gao holding a roster in his hand, it seemed that he had come to have some money.

"Your Majesty's dictation, this year the seats will be arranged according to the following list, and the rankings will be in order, and all the ministers will be seated in turn, and no noise will be made!"

The hall suddenly fell silent, and everyone's eyes looked at Gao Gonggong, and they were all strange in their hearts, there was no such rule in previous years, what is going on this year?

Gonggong Gao cleared his throat and opened his mouth to read: "The first seat on the right, Sun Wuji, the chief scholar of the Ministry of Officials, the first seat on the left hand, the right servant of the Shangshu shoots Li Jing." The second seat on the right, the left servant of Shangshu shoots Fang Xuanling, the second seat on the left, the imperial historian Wei Zheng, the third seat on the right, Wang Qi in the service, and the third seat on the left of the military department Shangshu Hou Junji ......"

When everyone heard this arrangement, they knew it in their hearts. This is the ranking of the important ministers in the emperor's heart, and those who are named are happily seated, while others are faintly looking forward to it, and they all want to know how much they rank in the emperor's heart.

In addition, from this ranking, something can also be revealed. For example, Li Jing, the great general who made the contribution of destroying the country this year, is still half a point behind the eldest grandson Wuji in the emperor's heart. Although the two of them are ranked first on the left and right, according to the rules, the right head is respected. In this way, it seems that the eldest grandson Wuji is one point higher.

There is also a more surprising arrangement is Wei Zheng, as a little expert in death, Wei Zheng has not died a lot this year, but in such a situation, Wei Zheng can still mix in the position of the second seat on the left, which still highlights the importance of Wei Zheng in Li Shimin's heart.

There is not much controversy about the other people's seats.
