~~~~~~

In a flash, seven or eight days have passed, and the time has come to the tenth day of the first month of the first year of Chongzhen.

During this time, Li Yuanqing did not go out of the gate, and did not step out of the second gate, quietly planting flowers, cultivating grass, and cultivating his 'field' in the foggy and rainy pavilion, so as to cultivate his self-cultivation.

Tomorrow will be the first court meeting of the new year and the new dynasty, and today, the rumors about the court meeting are gradually beginning to spread.

According to this rumor and gossip, Li Yuanqing will be added to the rank of prince and young master, and in terms of honor, he will officially enter the ranks of the second grade.

But ~~, in terms of the actual results, there is no other news.

And Chen Zhong will be crowned as the general of Dingguo, and the other rewards are also unclear.

Wuyu Pavilion, the No. 1 box of Tianzi, is already full of sumptuous wine and food, and Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong are drinking each other.

"Yuanqing, there is no wind in the air! This news, there are noses and eyes, in my opinion, eight ~ nine is not far from ten! Unexpectedly, we and our brothers fought with our lives to give such a big gift to the new emperor, but the new emperor obviously doesn't plan to give us too much face! ”

Chen Zhong poured a glass of wine vigorously and said extremely unpleasantly.

Li Yuanqing was not slow, took a sip of wine, and said with a smile: "Big brother, thunder and rain are all Jun's grace." That's not bad already. It's better than nothing. We can't let the new emperor knight us, right? ”

"Yuanqing, what about the knighthood? With the merits of us and our sons, it is normal to be knighted! Hate that! The new emperor and the bigwigs of the imperial court are really too stingy! is just a false name, and even the silver rewarded is not willing to be issued more. Anyway, it's my old Chen who is not convinced. ”

Li Yuanqing smiled: "Big brother, you always have to think about the good." The new emperor first ascended to the throne, and he also had his difficulties. Let's also be considerate of the new emperor! Besides, according to the strength of our brothers, as long as we continue to expand our military exploits, will we still be worried about not having a title when we reach Shenyang City? ”

With Li Yuanqing personally enlightening here, Chen Zhong was originally a little depressed, but soon became a lot clearer, and at a banquet at noon, he drank more than a dozen bowls.

After eating, he sent someone to serve Chen Zhong to rest in the guest room, and Li Yuanqing slowly came to the backyard, in the small garden outside Yang Jiao~Niang's yard.

In the past few days, there has been no snow, the weather is getting drier, and the north wind is howling, cold and dry, which makes people very uncomfortable.

The wind is like a knife, I am afraid that it can directly cut people's faces.

However, a new plum planted by Li Yuanqing a few days ago is growing quite well, and small green seedlings have floated out on the boring branches, tender and oily, which makes people can't help but be happy and want to take care of it.

Outside the gate of the courtyard, there have been turtle slaves standing here, and when they saw Li Yuanqing coming, they hurriedly passed the news to Yang Jiao ~ Niang inside.

After a while, Yang Jiao~ Niang hurriedly greeted her and said with a smile: "Yuanqing, it's so windy outside, what are you doing standing stupidly here?" ”

Li Yuanqing smiled: "Jiao~ Mother, look at my Lamei, I'm about to become a talent." ”

Yang Jiao~ Mother couldn't help but be a little speechless when she saw that it was a little green seedling with no big fingernails, but she understood Li Yuanqing's thoughts, and hurriedly smiled and grabbed Li Yuanqing's arm, and pulled Li Yuanqing out of the yard, "Yuanqing, don't worry, I will help you take care of this little green seedling." ”

Coming to the warm room, Yang Jiao~ Niang personally served Li Yuanqing and took off her fur jacket, and said with a smile: "Yuanqing, you have been promoted again, how are you feeling?" ”

Looking at Yang Jiao~Niang's coquettish eyes as if they were about to overflow water, Li Yuanqing couldn't help but smile and pinched a few handfuls of her buttocks, "How is it?" That's all. Far from what I expected. By the way, Jiao~ Mother, how are we doing on Tuesday? ”

Yang Jiao~ Niang smiled: "Very hard." I've been making friends. It's already getting to the core. ”

Li Yuanqing smiled: "Jiao~ Mother, you send someone to watch more about this matter." Well. Try not to let others know that behind him, it's me who is standing. ”

Yang Jiao~ Niang smiled and nodded, "Yuanqing, don't worry." I've been staring at it. By the way, Yuan Qing, the eldest prince of Zhou and the Huang family ......"

Li Yuanqing lit a cigar, took a deep breath, and slowly exhaled a puff of thick mist, and after a moment, he smiled and said, "Don't worry about this matter first." Master Zhou, but he is an understanding person! ”

Yang Jiao~ Niang smiled and nodded, for a moment, but she giggled: "Yuanqing, I'll call Liuli over and warm your bed." ”

Li Yuanqing smiled, but he took Yang Jiao~ Niang into his arms and said hard in her ear: "Liuli and Xiaomei, let's talk about it at night." Now, I'll feed you first......"

…………

Early in the morning of the next day, the first court meeting of the New Year and the New Dynasty was held as scheduled.

Unlike the little emperor of the Apocalypse, who worked hard as a carpenter, the new emperor Chongzhen, in terms of the early dynasty, or in terms of controlling power, was simply exhausted and fed.

It is almost impossible to expect him not to come to the early dynasty......

Today, according to the identities of Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong, there is no longer any need to stand stupidly outside the cold Imperial Palace, but can already enter the court and participate in the entire process of the early dynasty.

Of course, this matter is only because of the reward, which is a special case.

According to the traditional rules, Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong are martial artists after all, and they are still a few steps away from being able to shuttle freely in the court.

This son, naturally, can't be relied on.

However, being able to go further, even if it is a small step, is already a harvest, and Li Yuanqing will not be dissatisfied with this.

Especially the stinginess of Emperor Chongzhen......

In these days after the year, although Li Yuanqing was relaxed and happy, and the general trend was under control, Emperor Chongzhen was far from being so relaxed.

After ascending the throne, a series of irritable processes made him look very tired, but his spirit was excellent, as if his body had endless energy.

Li Yuanqing also admired this.

Not to mention character, not to mention ability, at least, in terms of work attitude, Emperor Chongzhen is better than more than ninety percent of emperors in Chinese history.

The court meeting is still the first to discuss state affairs, and the last is to award rewards.

Li Yuanqing was also able to watch and listen to the highest-level political ~ meeting of the Ming Dynasty for the first time at close range.

At this time, because it has been nearly ten days since the previous year, and more than ten days after the year, it is more than ten days, so at this time, the summary of news from all sides is also very complicated.

However, Li Yuanqing quickly figured out the clue, and he still mainly focused on man-made disasters and natural disasters in Liao, Southwest, Shanxi, Henan, and Shaanxi.

Hundreds of courtiers, divided into columns, sent representatives according to their positions, or rather, according to their factions, to express their opinions and opinions on these matters one by one.

Although Li Yuanqing was already majestic at this time, he still didn't have much say on this occasion.

Chen Zhong is even more so.

However, these two brothers have long been well prepared, looking at their noses and noses, and their noses and hearts, only bringing their eyes and ears, but forgetting their mouths at home......

More than a dozen messages passed, and Li Yuanqing's brows couldn't help frowning slightly.

Emperor Chongzhen's luck is really, really a little bad.

As soon as he ascended the throne, there were already great signs of chaos in the mountains and Shaanxi, and it was no surprise that the raging flames of the exile army were about to begin to ignite.

But at this time, Li Yuanqing can only be a bystander, it is enough to see and know, and he will never express his position.

Probably because it was the first court meeting of the New Year, the rhythm of the whole court meeting was very fast, Emperor Chongzhen personally grasped the rhythm, there was not too much mud and water, and soon, it was time for Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong to be rewarded.

Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong were also meticulous, according to the process and according to the rules, they knelt three times and bowed nine times to the new Emperor Chongzhen and received the reward.

Not surprisingly, the accuracy rate of gossip has reached more than ninety percent.

Li Yuanqing was crowned as the crown prince and young master, while Chen Zhong was crowned as the general of Dingguo.

After the two of them finished awarding, they kowtowed and thanked them, and the whole court meeting was also coming to an end.

The two followed the flow and walked out of the tall and majestic Imperial Palace, and Chen Zhong couldn't help but whisper in Li Yuanqing's ear: "Yuanqing, this bird's feather court meeting, but that's what it looks like." When are you leaving? Let's go back to southern Liaoning as soon as possible. I've had enough of my time in Beijing. ”

Li Yuanqing smiled and was about to speak, but behind him, the little eunuch hurriedly chased after him and said respectfully: "Li Shuai, Li Shuai is slow." The emperor has an order to invite Li Shuai to go to the Heart Cultivation Hall to speak. ”

Chen Zhong couldn't help but glance at Li Yuanqing.

Li Yuanqing remained silent and said with a smile: "There is a little father-in-law." ”

He said to Chen Zhong again: "Big brother, let's discuss the matter of returning to southern Liaoning in the evening." ”

Chen Zhong also understood what Li Yuanqing meant, so he had to leave first, but he was still a little worried about Li Yuanqing's side, and kept looking back.

Li Yuanqing smiled and took out two hundred taels of silver tickets to the little eunuch, and said with a smile: "Little father-in-law, lead the way!" ”

The little eunuch was overjoyed, and hurriedly said respectfully: "Li Shuai, please go this way." ”

After a while, the two came to the Yangxin Hall not far from the north, and Emperor Chongzhen had already returned for a while, sitting on the dragon chair drinking tea.

Li Yuanqing hurriedly saluted Emperor Chongzhen respectfully.

Emperor Chongzhen hurriedly smiled and said, "Li Shuai, please hurry up." Today, you're tired, aren't you? ”

Li Yuanqing was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect Emperor Chongzhen to be so humorous...... Busy smiled: "There is Emperor Lao's concern." It was the first time to participate in this kind of occasion, and Chen was really a little nervous. ”

Emperor Chongzhen couldn't help laughing: "Li Shuai, be honest." The first time I participated in the court meeting, I was also very nervous. ”

Because of Emperor Chongzhen's deliberateness, the two exchanged a few words, and the atmosphere gradually warmed up and was very soft.

At this time, Emperor Chongzhen smiled and said, "Li Shuai, when do you plan to return to Liaodi?" What are the specific arrangements for the new year? ”

Li Yuanqing hurriedly smiled and politely expressed his loyalty to Emperor Chongzhen.

Emperor Chongzhen was very satisfied with Li Yuanqing's attitude, and said with a smile: "By the way, Li Shuai, there is something I almost forgot to mention to you." ”

Emperor Chongzhen said and glanced at Li Yuanqing.

Li Yuanqing hurriedly bowed his hand respectfully and said: "What teachings does the emperor have, the ministers will listen to it." ”

Emperor Chongzhen hurriedly smiled and said, "Li Shuai, it's not a big deal. It's General Zhang Sanshun's affairs with their own soldiers in the Immortal Battalion. Li Shuai, frankly speaking, these days, without their help, my side would really be a little difficult. ”
