Chapter Eighty-Eight: The Princesses Watch the Fireworks
Lu Wenxin nodded and said, "Your Majesty, this person is Zhang Shijie, the deputy envoy of the Infantry Division!" This person has been in the army for many years, and he has studied a lot of weapons, so he thinks that this person is suitable to serve as the commander of the artillery production department! ”
Emperor Lizong looked up at the ministers and said loudly, "What do you think? ”
The emperor's meaning is obvious, how could the ministers not see it, no one dares to touch the mold at this time, just now even Ding Daquan, who is above 10,000 people under one person, has been reprimanded by the emperor, who dares to say no words?
Seeing that the ministers did not dare to object, Emperor Lizong said happily: "Okay, it seems that all Aiqing has agreed to Lord Lu's proposal, so it will be decided, and Zhang Shijie, the deputy envoy of the Military Division, will be transferred to the ordnance superintendent, but for the time being, he will be appointed as the deputy envoy of the Artillery Production Institute, and the acting chief will be the envoy, this chief envoy is temporarily vacant, and I have other arrangements!" ”
Seeing the emperor say this, not only the ministers were surprised, but Lu Wenxin was also a little dumbfounded, what does the emperor mean by this? Since they all agreed to transfer Zhang Shijie to serve as an artillery production institute, they did not let him be promoted to be a chief envoy, but became a deputy envoy! Or does the emperor still want to see how Zhang Shijie is doing? Or is there any other candidate for the emperor?
Ding Daquan was also a little puzzled, what does the emperor mean by this? Is there still a candidate for the emperor?
In fact, Ding Daquan really guessed correctly, because the position of this envoy was reserved by Emperor Lizong, and the most ideal candidate in Emperor Lizong's mind was naturally Li Xiang! Because Li Xiang gave him a lot of surprises, and at the same time, this artillery and rocket artillery were also invented by Li Xiang, and only when he is in charge of the artillery production institute can he do the best.

Of course, Emperor Lizong also knew that Li Xiang had not yet achieved fame, and he could only be awarded an official if he was admitted to the Jinshi in the spring of the next year. Emperor Lizong was very confident in Li Xiang, and from his point of view, it was inevitable that Li Xiang would become a jinshi, and he was still looking forward to Li Xiang giving him a big surprise in the palace examination!
However, it seems that he is going to be recruited into the palace today, didn't Concubine Yan say yesterday that she would let Li Xiang make fireworks for her? As soon as he thought of this, a smile appeared on the corner of Emperor Lizong's mouth, and the ministers were stunned!
The dust settled on the matter of the artillery production institute, and the ministers no longer discussed the matter in vain, and then the ministers handed over some folds, and finally went down to the court, and it was already noon.
Emperor Lizong returned to the Ciyuan Hall with a smile on his face, and was eating pastries with Princess Zhou Hanguo, and Yan Guifei, who was chatting with the flowers, saw the arrival of the official family, and hurriedly ordered the personal palace to prepare more meals, and stepped forward with the princess to salute the smiling Emperor Lizong.
Emperor Lizong was very happy and said with a smile: "Concubine, today I am on the top of the main hall, and I have finally deterred those old ministers, and I have confirmed the candidates for the artillery production institute, this is really a happy day!" ”
Yan Guifei glanced at Emperor Lizong with resentment and said, "Your Majesty, you are happy, but don't forget, yesterday you promised me to let that Li Xiang come to the palace and make fireworks for me and Zhou Hanguo!" ”
Princess Zhou Hanguo hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, father, the fireworks last night were so beautiful!" ”
Emperor Lizong smiled bitterly and said, "You guys, you know how to play all day long!" and Zhou Hanguo, you are also a big boss, shouldn't you find someone to marry! ”
Princess Zhou Hanguo's face flushed, and she said wryly: "Father, don't come!" You're making fun of people again! He's only eighteen years old this year, so it's still early! Besides, the sons don't want to leave their fathers and marry the sons of the three ministers, and the sons can't look down on any of them! I want to be by my father's side and my mother's side. ”
This week, the princess of the Han Kingdom is the only pearl in the palm of Emperor Lizong, but she was not born to Yan Guifei, her biological mother died of illness when she was very young, and she was later raised by Yan Guifei. The status of this princess is also very special, you must know that in the Southern Song Dynasty, the princesses of several emperors died before they could get married, so Emperor Lizong was naturally very concerned about the lifelong events of his only daughter.
Of course, in history, this princess was married to Zhao Zhen, the nephew of the Queen Mother, and the horse originally chosen by Emperor Lizong was not this Yang Zhen, but the champion Zhou Zhenyan. It's just that because Emperor Lizong especially favored his only daughter, and the princess saw that Yuanlang was not good-looking, she was unwilling, and later Emperor Lizong chose Yang Zhen for her. It's just that this princess didn't live long, she died at the age of twenty-two, maybe the Zhao family's genes do have some problems, resulting in most of the children and grandchildren not living long.
Speaking of Emperor Lizong, he is also very miserable, he only has such a daughter, because his only son died more than ten years ago, and then there are no heirs, so the current crown prince is only his nephew.
Seeing his daughter's shy appearance, Emperor Lizong thought to himself, this child is still shy, but at her age, she should have reached the age of Huaichun, and she doesn't know which family's sons can make her own pearl in the palm of her hand, so she has to choose among the talents next spring to see if there is anything that her daughter likes.
As soon as he thought of this, Emperor Lizong thought of Li Xiang again, this Li Xiang is about the same age as a princess, and he is also good-looking, not to mention talented! Perhaps, if Li Xiang is recruited today, there will be an unexpected joy!
Seeing that the emperor was distracted, as if he was thinking about something, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, Yan Guifei shook the emperor's arm and said, "Your Majesty, what are you thinking?" I haven't returned to the concubine yet! ”
Emperor Lizong waved away the surrounding palace maids and chamberlains, and said with a smile: "Ai Concubine, I am thinking, the princess's marriage should also be considered!" Keep an eye out for the right candidates! It's really not good, so I can only choose next year's champion list! Such a talent, I think the princess should be able to look at it, right? ”
Yan Guifei looked at the princess and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, you are really thoughtful!" In fact, it's not that the princess doesn't want to get married, it's just that she doesn't have anyone to look at! ”
Seeing that her father and mother were making fun of her, the princess was even more ashamed, and she lowered her head and didn't dare to look at them.
Emperor Lizong smiled and said, "Okay, if you don't talk about this, if you say it again, our daughter will be ashamed of herself!" As for Li Xiang, I have already sent someone to invite you, maybe you can see that beautiful fireworks again tonight. ”
Hearing this, the princess hurriedly raised her head, looked at Emperor Lizong and said, "Father, who is this person who makes fireworks?" ”
Emperor Lizong said with a smile: "This person's name is Li Xiang, and he is also an official's son, and he is about the same age as a princess!" However, this son is also amazingly talented, and was accepted as a closed disciple by Dr. Wang Yisun of Guozijian, and he was even more successful in this invigilation examination, maybe next year's palace examination, this son will have a better performance. ”
The princess said suspiciously: "Father, you lied to you!" If he is such a talent, why do he make fireworks? Shouldn't this firework be made by a craftsman? How could he be a scholar? ”
