Under the ardent expectation of the people in the capital, the wedding of Li Anming, the little prince of Zhongwangfu, finally kicked off in mid-October, and the capital was a sensation.

This is not to say how grand Li Anming's wedding is, according to the specifications of his wedding, it cannot exceed Li Anbang and Li Anyu, the sons-in-law born to Zhou Yuting in the Zhongwang Mansion, and it is his newlywed wife Zhao Ning'er who is from the civilian class that arouses the warm attention of the people.

Since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, due to the traditional concept of being the right person, no civilian woman has ever been able to marry into the family of high-ranking officials and dignitaries as a wife, not to mention that it is still the prince's palace, Zhao Ninger can be said to have created a precedent.

Although Li Anming is only a concubine, he can enjoy the wedding treatment of his son-in-law because of the grace of the Empress Dowager of the Zhang family, and it is worth coming to those magnates.

Li Yuntian is an important minister of the imperial court, and his status is extremely noble, so it is naturally not suitable to show up to receive those guests who come to congratulate, everything is arranged by Zhou Yuting, she is much more proficient than Li Yuntian in this regard.

However, Li Yuntian was not idle, some distinguished guests needed him to accompany them, and these distinguished guests were naturally first-class members of the imperial court, such as Yang Pu, the first assistant of the cabinet, Hu Ying, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and important civil and military ministers such as Yiguo Gong.

As people expected in advance, the orthodox emperor's holy intention to confer Li Anming as the king of the county came as scheduled at the wedding, and Li Anming was named the king of the faithful county.

Not only that, the eunuch who passed the decree also brought a decree to Li Yuntian's fief, and no one would have thought that Li Yuntian's fief had as many as three places, respectively in Jiaozhi, the Western Regions and Liaodong.

This also surprised Li Yuntian, he never imagined that the orthodox emperor would give him three fiefdoms, but if you think about it carefully, you can understand the orthodox emperor's thoughts, Jiaozhi, the Western Regions and Liaodong are all the territories that Li Yuntian opened up for the Ming Dynasty, so the orthodox emperor wanted to use this to commend Li Yuntian's merits.

The orthodox emperor's edict of the feudal city, the officialdom of the capital was shaken, and Li Yuntian not only got the fief but also had three places, which shows the longevity of the saints.

It's also strange to say, originally this was a very easy thing to attract jealousy, but this time the civil and military officials in the officialdom did not show the slightest dissent.

The reason is very simple, firstly, Li Yuntian is a prince, and it is understandable to have his own fiefdoms, and secondly, the places where the three fiefdoms are located are all "snatched" back from the enemy by Li Yuntian at the risk of his life, which can be described as a great contribution to the imperial court, so it is not surprising to get three of them, which has special commemorative significance.

In addition, these three fiefdoms are located far away, and the nearest Liaodong is also a bitter cold place where the weather is cold and the earth is freezing, so naturally no one will care.

Li Yuntian was naturally very happy about the surprise given to him by the orthodox emperor, especially the fiefdoms of Jiaozhi and the Western Regions would allow him to consider the layout of the two places as the Zhongwang Mansion in the future.

Although Li Yuntian didn't want to let the outside world know in advance that he was going to the Western Regions and Nanyang to inspect, as the departure date approached, the high-ranking officials and dignitaries in the capital still faintly smelled a hint of smell.

Li Yuntian could conceal the trip, but he could not hide the various preparations he had made for the trip, and the important ministers of the imperial court saw something strange from it.

Since Li Yuntian had been assassinated, the level of secrecy of his whereabouts was to some extent higher than that of the Orthodox Emperor, after all, the Orthodox Emperor would not leave Beijing on errands as often as he did.

Therefore, if Li Yuntian didn't open his mouth, no one in the capital would ask about it, so as not to commit a taboo, this is something that everyone still has, but in his heart he secretly guessed where Li Yuntian was going, to be honest, no one could guess Li Yuntian's mind and didn't know what he was going to do next.

However, Li Yuntian, who handed over the affairs of the backyard to Zhou Yuting, did not guess Zhou Yuting's thoughts, and at the beginning of November, Zhongwangfu ushered in another happy event, which has nothing to do with the children of Zhongwangfu, and the protagonist is Li Yuntian, the owner of Zhongwangfu.

Under Zhou Yuting's arrangement, the palace secretly prepared to marry Yun Na, because Yun Na could only become a concubine, so naturally there was no beautiful wedding banquet, but Yun Na was already content.

It wasn't until Li Yuntian returned home that he knew that Zhou Yuting was in charge of taking Yun Na as his concubine, and he couldn't cry or laugh for a while, he was already a Ben Wu person, and he even had to marry a girl in her twenties, which really made him feel a little resistant in his heart.

But at this point, Li Yuntian was helpless, after all, he had already handed over the power of concubine to Zhou Yuting when he married her, so Zhou Yuting's decision was also his decision.

Besides, Li Yuntian and Yun Na have naturally developed feelings after getting along for so long, so they also enjoy the blessing of the old cow eating tender grass.

In the eyes of the outside world, Li Yuntian is almost a very perfect person, both in appearance and ability, he is first-class in Daming.

The only fly in the ointment is that Li Yuntian has too many concubines, giving outsiders a romantic image, in other words, lustful.

But then again, Li Yuntian accepted those concubines with his charm, and others were only jealous in addition to envy.

Yun Na can be regarded as a positive result of cultivation, she has waited for so many years to finally marry Li Yuntian, and it is not in vain that she has waited for so many years.

As a result, the adjutant next to Li Yuntian will be replaced, and it is obvious that Yun Na will have children after getting married, and it is no longer suitable to follow Li Yuntian around.

Zhou Yuting had already discussed this matter with Lei Ting, and asked Lei Ting to find an excellent person to replace Yun Na as Li Yuntian's adjutant from among the female students in the martial arts hall, which made Lei Ting feel very tricky.

After all, the most important thing for Li Yuntian to choose an adjutant is that he has nothing to do with all the forces in the capital, Lei Ting used to be a brutal and willful little princess of the Cao Gang, so she has nothing to do with the people in the government at all, and Lin Xin and Yun Na are not to mention that they were not from the Ming Dynasty before, so naturally they have nothing to do with officialdom.

The lecture hall is located in the capital, so how can the students in it not have an intersection with the people in the capital?

Besides, it is not easy to become Li Yuntian's adjutant, not only need to be talented but also able to endure hardships, Lei Ting, Lin Xin, and Yun Na have secretly put in a lot of work to be competent for this position.

But since Zhou Yuting has decided to give Yun Nana to Li Yuntian as a concubine, of course Lei Ting has to find a way to solve this problem and secretly investigate several female students.

In fact, the final decision of the adjutant beside Li Yuntian is in Li Yuntian's hands, and it is uncertain whether Li Yuntian will use those female students as adjutants, after all, Li Yuntian has his own principles and bottom line in doing things.

Sure enough, Li Yuntian has his own plans for the new adjutant, because Li Anmin and others have grown up, so he decided to use Li Anmin and others as his adjutants in the future, which can be regarded as a big tempering in their lives, what can be more worthy of his belief and expectation than his sons?

Therefore, Li Yuntian planned to let Li Anming and Li Anmin be his lieutenants during this tour of the Western Regions and Nanyang, and he felt that he should teach his sons as a father.

Li Yuntian's decision undoubtedly made Lei Ting secretly relieved, as the first adjutant by Li Yuntian's side, she knew very well the importance of this position, not only to deal with complicated official affairs, but also to shoulder the responsibility of protecting Li Yuntian's safety, not the slightest slack, but also to withstand all kinds of temptations from the outside world.

The so-called fighting tiger brothers, going into battle father and son soldiers, I am afraid that no one in this world is more willing to fight with their lives to protect Li Yuntian than Li Anmin and Li Anming and other little princes of the loyal prince's mansion, and no one is more suitable for the position of adjutant than they have been taught by the new culture of the martial arts hall since childhood.

Therefore, Li Yuntian transferred Li Anmin, who was far away at the Ningbo Military Port, to return to Beijing, and asked him to rush back to the capital after the beginning of spring next year, and then set off together.

At the end of November, a heavy snowfall fell in the capital, making the entire capital covered in white and white world, which is pleasing to the eye.

For some reason, Li Yuntian was a little restless when he woke up in the morning, and he had a vague premonition that something big had happened, but he couldn't remember what was going on for a while.

"Lord Wang, Yang Shaoqing of Dali Temple came to report, Yang Ge Lao drove the crane in his sleep last night!" Li Yuntian stayed at Zhu Yuxin's place at night, and when Zhu Yuxin was waiting for him to dress, the housekeeper hurriedly came in to say goodbye.

"What?" Li Yuntian was taken aback when he heard this, no wonder he was upset, it turned out that something had happened to Yang Pu.

Yang Dan of Dali Temple Shaoqing is the third son of Yang Pu, Dali Temple Shaoqing, although he was promoted to this position more or less related to Yang Pu, but he also has real talent and learning, and is a member of the imperial court.

"Lord Wang, my father left last night." Li Yuntian hurriedly went to the living room to see Yang Dan, Yang Dan was wearing heavy filial piety, and cried when he saw Li Yuntian.

"The elder is in too much of a hurry, and there are still a lot of things to take care of in the court!" Li Yuntian sighed and said with a gloomy expression.

"My father's health has not been very good these days, he may have expected this day, so he instructed the lower officials to wait for him to leave and let the lower officials tell the prince, and let the prince worry more about the affairs of the cabinet in the future." Yang Dan wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and said to Li Yuntian.

"The elder of the pavilion is dedicated to the public, and this king admires him very much, and he will definitely not disappoint his expectations." Seeing that Yang Pu was so concerned about the affairs of the cabinet, Li Yuntian bowed slightly when he heard this, Yang Pu left the cabinet, and no one could compete with the inner court and the six ministries, and it seemed that he would be at a low point in a short period of time.

In fact, Yang Pu asked the orthodox emperor to resign two years ago due to his old age and frailty, and wanted to return to his hometown to retire for the rest of his life, but the cabinet could not do without Yang Pu, and the orthodox emperor needed Yang Pu to deal with the government.

Among the civil officials in the court, in addition to Li Yuntian, the most trusted by the orthodox emperor is Yang Pu, Yang Pu is an old minister who came out of Emperor Hongxi's side, and once sat in prison for ten years because of the seizure of the heir between the King of Han and Emperor Hongxi, so his loyalty to the royal family is not comparable to other civil officials.

Moreover, in addition to helping the emperor manage government affairs, the existence of the cabinet also has the meaning of checking and balancing the six ministries, and the orthodox emperor needs a member of the civil official group to stand on his side, and Yang Pu is undoubtedly the best candidate.

Yang Pu's death shook the officialdom of the capital, and the orthodox emperor even dropped out of the dynasty to mourn for this reason, which is a rare honor.

Subsequently, the orthodox emperor posthumously presented Yang Pute to Guanglu Doctor, Zuo Zhuguo, and Taishi, nicknamed "Wending", and awarded his grandson Yang Shou as Shangbao Sicheng, and ordered the people of the Yamen to arrange for him to return to his hometown.

At this point, the era of "Sanyang", which once dominated the Ming officialdom, slowly came to an end, and the officialdom of the Ming Dynasty officially entered the historical period of the game between the inner court and the civil official group.
