Chapter 352: Nine Tin
As soon as the Chinese New Year's Eve of Hongxing's 20th year passed, it ushered in the first year of Mingzhang. Li Shengxi stayed in Wangjing for only a few days, and then handed over everything to Rongzhi, and she personally led her troops to sweep away the remnants.
Because of the surrender of the Northern Qi Dynasty, some state capitals chose to surrender, while the governors of some state capitals erected the anti-flag of "Kuang Fu Xiao" and launched a new round of secession. But for Li Shengxi, all this is nothing.
In June of the first year of the Ming Dynasty, all the remnants of the Northern Qi Dynasty were officially included in the territory of the Southern Jin Dynasty.
The good news soon spread to Linxi, and the courtiers were all overjoyed. Even King Li, who has always disliked Li Sheng's attack, is the same.
The unification of Kyushu and the end of a hundred years of turmoil are a great achievement in the world.
After Linxi received the news, Emperor Mingzhang organized courtiers to pay tribute to their ancestors.
Then, it was the emperor who held a banquet in the Qingliang Hall to entertain the ministers.
After three rounds of drinking, Emperor Mingzhang asked the messenger who came back: "Since the world is unified, I don't know when my aunt will come back?" I haven't seen her for a long time, and I miss her so much. β
The fourteen-year-old Emperor Mingzhang has grown a lot older than in the past, perhaps he has been the emperor for more than half a year, and now he has long since faded the childishness that should belong to this age.
But at this time, he still looked extremely friendly and hearty, as if he was a teenager who missed his aunt.
The envoy was stunned for a moment, and he didn't know what to say for a while, after all, His Highness didn't say when he would come back.
Li Xun on the side hurriedly explained: "The war in the north is initially decided, if it is not easy to make a living, I am afraid that the Northern Qi will surrender and rebel, and my aunt is only afraid that she will not be able to come back for a while." β
When the young emperor heard this, he nodded, "It's hard aunt." Unified the country, the wish of the emperor, the end of a hundred years of turmoil, such a hero, and the emperor, how do you think? β
King Li: "......"
Why is this father and son the same, the first emperor is just that, no matter how high the eldest princess is, she will not shock the lord, but now it is different, how did he suppress the eldest princess?
In the past, when I first visited Wangjing, the eldest princess was also in charge of the disposal of the relatives and nobles of the Northern Qi Dynasty and the appointment of the officials of the Northern Qi Dynasty, although they all sent letters to Linxi. But she's decided, so what's there for them to change?
Now that the eldest princess is already a prince, if she is sealed again, will she add nine tin?
"Why don't you add nine tin? Licensing the sword to go to the temple, entering the court is not trending, and praise is not famous? β
King Li's cup fell on the table, King Yong's chopsticks fell to the ground, Pei Diancheng spilled wine, and Xiao Jingping bit his tongue.
Adding nine tin is indeed the supreme glory, but the old precedent of the previous dynasty is in the front, who will really add nine tin. Throughout the ages, those who add nine tins have either sought to establish themselves or died in rebellion. Is the Holy One crazy?
"Holy never." King Li was the first to react and opened his mouth to block it.
Li Xun rarely had an idea with King Li sincerely, and he was also helped up by someone, "The saint can't, if the saint wants to reward his aunt, it's better to reward his aunt with gold and silver and wealth, why is it the addition of nine tin?" β
Although he knew what his aunt's ultimate goal was, and he also chose to support his aunt, but now that the situation is unstable, and his aunt is thousands of miles away, if he really suffers Jiuxi, I am afraid that I don't know how much right and wrong it will cause?
Several ministers and prime ministers also spoke out to stop it, although it was to stop it, but the little emperor is only fourteen years old this year, and it is not yet time for him to be in power, and several auxiliary ministers do not agree, and it is impossible for this holy decree to be issued.
Emperor Mingzhang's expression was gloomy, "Okay, it's just that since you can't add nine tin, what do you want to reward your aunt?" The work of pacifying the world, how can some gold and silver treasures be perfunctory? β
If it is not gold or silver, and it is unsealable, what should be rewarded?
King Li's eyes lit up, and he said: "The eldest princess is a woman after all, although she bears the title of King Ning, but in the end she has no heirs, and no one will inherit the title afterwards. The saint is not as good as the eldest princess to choose a son-in-law. Moreover, the eldest princess has been riding horses for half her life, and she will eventually return to the boudoir to teach her husband and children. Wouldn't it be beautiful for the saint to choose a good person for him, and to be the heir of the eldest princess in the future? β
"That's not a bad idea." Emperor Ming Zhang nodded, obviously listening to King Li's proposal.
Li Xun: "......"
Choosing a husband? Retirement? King Li thought of it, this can be regarded as crossing the river and demolishing the bridge, right?
"Holy Lord, Weichen thinks it's inappropriate." Li Xun hurriedly opened his mouth to stop it, if he really asked his aunt to make a marriage before he came back, it was estimated that his aunt would be the first to tear him up after she came back.
He calmed down slightly, and continued: "Marriage is a noble thing that knows each other in two hearts, although the Mu family is a chaotic minister and thief, but at the beginning, he was also a powerful person in the court and the opposition. Who knew that later, the people's hearts were not ancient, and Muhammad's rebellion led to the loss of her aunt after only a year of marriage. It can be seen that the most important thing for a husband is not a prominent background, but a character and whether the man and woman are in love? Otherwise, it will eventually become a grudge, and it will be boring. β
"What Brother Yongwang said is also reasonable, then it is better to wait for my aunt to come back, I will personally preside over the selection of a son-in-law for my aunt, and the nobles of the city will be chosen by my aunt. When my aunt got married, I did a great job for her. β
β¦β¦
"The Holy One wants to add nine tins to me?" Li Shengxun looked at Nian Xi.
Nian Xi nodded, "But I was persuaded by the auxiliary ministers to go back." β
Li Shengxing smiled and shook his head.
"What are you laughing at, Your Highness?" Rong Zhi, who was settling accounts, asked with a smile.
"I'm just thinking, if Jiuxi arrives in front of me, I will not answer it." If you take it, it will be a rebel and a thief, and everyone can speak out to denounce it. If you refuse, you must express your loyalty, saying that you absolutely have no intention of the throne, which is almost a self-defeating way forward.
If this holy decree had not been stopped by the Auxiliary Minister, she would have been in a dilemma.
"This kid doesn't know if it's really naΓ―ve." The prince is not the apex, Jiuxi, but it is already unsealable.
"Wei Chen remembers that His Royal Highness got married at the age of fifteen." So at the age of fourteen, how can you still call it a child?
Li Sheng's eyes were slightly cold, "Do you think he is testing me?" β
"Your Highness, this time is different from the past, whether it is or not, it is indispensable to guard against people." Rongzhi reminded.
No matter what Emperor Mingzhang had in mind, but now that Li Shengxi and Emperor Mingzhang, the relationship between them can no longer be simply summarized by aunts and nephews.
This time to give Jiuxi, Li Sheng's attack can be regarded as his nephew's ignorant nonsense, but if it is given, for Li Shengxi, it will be a dilemma.
Li Sheng's expression was slightly abrupt, and she picked up a cup of tea, "What about after the block?" β
