Chapter 119: Before Ascending the Throne
Li Zhen was immersed in the pleasure of having his strength greatly improved, and he couldn't extricate himself.
Thunder Punishment not only tempered his physical body, but also made his physical body completely different from ordinary people and had a longer lifespan. In addition, the true element in the body was also tempered under the power of thunder, and the strength was even higher.
Now he is so strong that he is confident that he can fight with the strong of the realm without relying on magic weapons.
Li Zhen gradually came back to his senses, his eyes swept around, and found that many people were paying attention to him, and he landed slowly with his unskilled art of controlling the sky, and came to his grandfather Zhou Qian.
"Grandpa! I did it! ”
Promoted to a catastrophe immortal, as the crown prince, this is a great joy worthy of celebration by the whole world.
"Zhen'er is so good! The first twenty-two-year-old immortal in the history of Nanping Domain, you have made history! ”
Zhou Qian was excited.
"Congratulations to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince on his promotion to Human Immortal!"
"Congratulations!"
"His Royal Highness is brilliant, and he will lead Huaguo to the world in the future."
“……………………………………”
Wanxian Pavilion and the people of the East Palace stepped forward to congratulate one after another, and they all knew that it would not be long before 'His Highness' would be renamed 'Your Majesty' and become the true master of Huaguo.
Li Zhen had a polite conversation with everyone, and the palace soon came to the will, first congratulating Li Zhen on his promotion to immortal, and naturally there were many rewards and rewards, and then he was ordered to enter the palace to face the saint.
After Li Zhen thanked him, he asked the people of Wanxian Pavilion not to leave, celebrate tonight, and at the same time let the black scales go to Jiang Shang and let Jiang Shang come back, this kid is crazy now, and he has to let him take his heart.
Li Zhen came to the palace and met his father who had been waiting for a long time in the Palace of Nourishing Hearts.
"Son-in-law, see father!"
Emperor Hua waved his hand, signaled to calm down, and said to Li Zhen with satisfaction: "You are very good, Huaguo will definitely be more prosperous in your hands." ”
"The sons still have a lot to learn from their father, and there are still ..............."
Li Zhen was modest, but was interrupted by Emperor Hua and said: "Let's not make up the void for the father and son, the New Year is coming soon, and the enthronement will be held after the New Year." ”
Emperor Hua's injury is slowly recovering, now he is in the prime of life, abdication is really too early, if you don't abdicate, there is a strong prince below, and their father and son may not have a day when they will not face each other.
It's better to take advantage of the fact that he is injured now, abdicate early, and live in the Zongren Mansion to be a clan elder at ease.
Emperor Hua is not a great talent, but he is also a talented, virtuous and capable master, he knows that the death of Li Zhen's mother is an eternal knot in the hearts of the father and son, and it is impossible for this knot to be completely dissolved, even if Emperor Hua explains a thousand sentences and ten thousand sentences, he cannot clear the responsibility for his mother being killed in the palace.
There are a lot of helplessness and regrets in life, which may be the helplessness and regret of their father and son.
Li Zhen was excited, but also a little sad.
"Son, thank your father!"
Emperor Hua stepped down from the dragon chair, came to Li Zhen's side, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Your talent is above your father's, and your father also knows that you have great ambitions, and I hope to see the day when you show your ambitions." ”
With the improvement of strength and the continuous growth of power, Li Zhen has more confidence in his grand plan for hegemony.
"Father! That day won't be too far away. ”
Li Zhen said firmly.
··············································
This year's Spring Festival is particularly lively, because the news of His Royal Highness the Prince's promotion to a robbery immortal has announced the world, and it is overjoyed.
Let's not mention the busyness of the Spring Festival for the time being, just say that as soon as the Spring Festival is over, according to the rules, Yan Xuan and Meng Bingqi have to go back to their parents' house.
Meng Bingqi's maiden home is the Moon Worship Palace, the road is far away, Li Zhen definitely can't go back with him, so he sent someone to escort Meng Bingqi back to the Moon Worship Palace to live for a few days, this may be the happiest news Meng Bingqi has received since marrying into the East Palace.
Yan Xuan returned to Yan's mansion, Li Zhen must accompany him, after all, the control of the court today still needs the strong support of the Yan Party, and this time, Li Zhen also came to solve this matter.
On the same day, the Yan Mansion received a grand reception and set up a feast, and the family was happy.
It's just that after the banquet ended, after Li Zhen, Elder Yan and his father-in-law came to the study, the atmosphere became a little delicate.
Coming to the study is to talk about business, since he is talking about business, Li Zhen doesn't like to beat around the bush, so he took out a list that had been prepared a long time ago and let Yan Lao and his father-in-law read it.
There are not many people on the list, twenty in number, the highest of these people is a scholar, and the lowest is a county magistrate.
They don't seem to have any connection, but in fact they are all core members of the Yan Party.
"The imperial court is now arranging the enthronement matters, after the crown prince ascends the throne, he plans to promote a group of young officials, the position of these people needs to be moved, I don't know if my grandfather and father-in-law have any opinions?"
Elder Yan and his father-in-law looked at each other as they looked at each other.
If these people are all moved, the Yan Party will be regarded as dead in name.
The father-in-law frowned, quite dissatisfied, now he is not an official in the imperial court, but a governor of any state, because of the special Spring Festival this year, he specially rushed back for the New Year, and prepared to leave the imperial capital after Li Zhen ascended the throne.
"They all owe it to the community, if you move them, will it be chilling."
Yan Lao said so, but in fact, he had acquiesced in his heart.
As the so-called once a son of heaven and a courtier, the strict party started from today's saint, and now the saint abdicates to make way for the virtuous, after Li Zhen ascends the throne, he must change a group of his own people. He discussed with Yan Lao in private today, which is already a very gentle method, if it really comes to the throne, and the cards are reshuffled, how many people on the list will be able to get out of the way at that time?
"The prince also took this matter into consideration, so he also gave corresponding compensation, after all, he is the pillar of the country, and he can't be cold."
Li Zhen actually doesn't know about these people, and it's not him who wants to move these people, Uncle Zhang Zhang Zichen.
Zhang Zichen needs a group of loyal subordinates around him to form a new 'strict party'.
At the same time, Yan Xuan was pulled to her by her mother, and said with a serious expression: "Xuan'er, have you been feeling unwell lately?" ”
When Yan Xuan heard this, she looked puzzled, she didn't know how her mother could ask like this, looking at the posture, it seemed uncomfortable.
"Nothing uncomfortable, huh?"
When Yan's mother heard this, she showed regret.
Yan Xuan is not a fool either, she reacted quickly, her pretty face rose, and she said angrily: "Mother! What are you doing. ”
"What? Of course, I want you to sit on the throne of the queen. ”
Yan's mother said seriously: "The dream girl who married at the same time as you, her background is no worse than yours, if someone gets pregnant and gives birth to a dragon child first, I am afraid that you will not be able to eat it in the palace with your temperament." ”
When Yan Xuan heard this, her expression suddenly felt a little lonely.
She knew that Li Zhen had not only never touched her, but also Meng Bingqi.
In Li Zhen's eyes, the two of them are just tools.
