The next day, the emperor with black bags under his eyes had survived the early dynasty, and before he had eaten two bites of breakfast, a fat face appeared in front of him who wanted to be beaten into meat sauce.

The emperor's great eunuch, Dai Quan.

"Please Greetings the Emperor!" Dai Quan greeted the emperor with a sneer on his face, every time he came to the emperor so early, the emperor would be reprimanded by the emperor, "Emperor, the sage asked the minister to invite you to Yingtai." After saying that, he lowered his head, not daring to look at the emperor, Dai Quan estimated that the cautious emperor remembered him in his heart.

The emperor, who was still enjoying the millet sea cucumber porridge just now, was in a good mood and disappeared, glanced at Dai Quan angrily, drank the porridge in one gulp, and wiped his mouth before speaking.

"Isn't this a factory minister, I haven't seen you for a few days, why are you still doing the work of running errands and passing on messages?"

The emperor squinted and glanced at Dai Quan, who was kneeling on the ground.

"The emperor has tormented the slave and maid, the slave and the maid are the royal slaves, and it is the duty of the slave and maid to run errands and pass the word."

After that, Dai Quan knew that this was the emperor's complaint, so he immediately knelt on the ground and kept silent.

The emperor sighed, grabbed the homework that was placed on the side, and walked towards Yingtai without looking back.

Xia Shouzhong hurriedly picked up Dai Quan, who was kneeling on the ground, and patted him with dust on his knees.

"The ancestors have worked hard!"

Dai Quan also got up and glanced at Xia Shouzhong.

"What kind of hard work are we talking about like this, it's just that the emperor and the emperor are going to be heads every day!"

The two smiled bitterly when they met, sighed at the same time, and were caught between the emperor and the emperor. What a day?

Xia Shouzhong also helped Dai Quan down the imperial steps.

。。。。。。

In the winter of the second year of Yonglong, the emperor of Yuji for more than 40 years was haggard and decided to abdicate, and when he made up his mind to choose an heir, he found that those suitable princes died and died, and they were small, and they had no choice.

I had to choose the only remaining adult prince, who was mediocre before, but now he has become the third prince who is the most disgusted and long-lasting.

The prince slaughtered his clan relatives on the night of the rebellion, and he didn't know how the three princes' family survived, but they only found that their family was all Ah Du.

Six of the seven members of the family survived. The side concubine Wu was killed for not hiding well.

The emperor had a fear of Xiyuan.

Since the beginning of his accession to the throne, the emperor has been very fond of living in Xiyuan, and spends most of the year living in Yingtai in Xiyuan.

Compared to Ouchi, this is his home.

This garden, which was loved by the emperor, was very terrifying to the emperor and several princes.

The emperor's way of raising children is very simple and rude, there is only one, playing the board.

The brothers have been beaten in almost every yard in Xiyuan.

Especially after opening a house as an adult, he has to be called in and beaten every three or five days.

The first prince and his third child suffered the most.

"Emperor, the saint is still waiting for you." Xia Shouzhong saw that the emperor was staring at the gate of Xiyuan and did not move, and hurriedly reminded.

Only then did the emperor come back to his senses, "Ah, yes, my father is still waiting." ”

The Emperor took a deep breath and walked briskly into the West Garden.

It didn't take long to arrive at Yingtai.

Dai Quan first entered to restore his life, and after a short time, he came out again to call the emperor in.

"The sons and daughters see their father's emperor and ask their father's peace."

"Zhen'an," a majestic old man with gray hair and a dark robe put down his teacup and looked at the emperor with his eyes.

"Is the list of rewards that I gave you two days ago ready?"

"The son-in-law has finished drafting, and he also asks his father to correct it."

The emperor handed over the examination paper in his arms to his old father and waited for the verdict of fate.

The Emperor took the roster and began to flip through it. As time passed, the emperor became more and more restless.

"Well," the emperor read the roster, turned to the pages he had folded, and looked up at the emperor, "There is no problem overall, but why are you planning these things like this?" ”

The Emperor named the jade zhang he was playing with.

"Guangling Marquis Lu Guan's merit of destroying the country is to enter the Duke of the Kingdom, but it is not enough, the last time the Han family opened the Western Regions was the Liang Dynasty, it has been six hundred years since Liang Zhongzong lost the Western Regions, and this time Lu Guan reopened the Western Regions is a great achievement, but I have no hereditary reckless statement, so it is best to not descend to the five generations of the Emperor."

The Emperor took a sip of tea.

"But it's still not enough, so it is better to move the military department to the right and grant the Wuyingdian University scholar to join the cabinet and participate in politics."

"This, father, this reward is too much, isn't it? Even if you move the military department to the right, can you join the cabinet? Wouldn't it make Lu Guan ambitious? The emperor hurriedly asked.

"Fart, the military general has entered the civilian official sequence, there are no soldiers and no money in his hands, and the basic plate is far away in Anxi, he takes the lead in rebellion? Lu Guan's old boy is also very good at fighting and deploying materials, and his indecisive temperament when he arrives about himself is also worthy of rebellion? After all, the emperor exposed his true nature and began to explode foul language.

"Look at it, in a few days, the old boy's begging bones should arrive, Lao Tzu warns you, don't make a fool of his brains, last year Hubu Xia Tong was impeached, to beg bones, you dog thing actually gave permission, allowed!" The more the emperor spoke, the more angry he became, and he got up and pointed at the emperor and started scolding.

"You maggot-hearted evil obstacle, the impeachment of the senior members of the DPRK and the Central Committee is to avoid suspicion, he is begging for bones, you should reject the fold, issue an order to appease him Xia Tong, let him close the door to avoid suspicion for a while,

Whoa? Yes!!

What do you do with a fool stuffing donkey hair in your head, ah! How can you be accurate, how dare you be accurate? Do you know that he is Lao Tzu's person! ”

The emperor bowed his head in scolding. He's used to it, too.

I heard my mother say that my father was also a personable young man, but I didn't expect to go to Datong to join the army for training, and after returning two years, the gentle and elegant model of the royal family became a man full of mothers and sons, and he could only use his hands.

I am more and more worried that my little four will also become the emperor.

After scolding for a while, the emperor sat down again, drank all the tea in the cup, and felt indescribably comfortable.

"That's all Lu Guan did, give him the title of Chengguo Gong, and then that's it," the roster flipped to the next folded page. "Rongguo Mansion Jia Hui."

"According to his military exploits, the twelve times of the medal were turned twice, the first five times, well, the chisel formation 16 times, well, the medal sat at the top.

And shot Timur Huntai Ji Ri Tichina?

Four battles on the battlefield, with fewer hits and more victories. A few errors of one or two thousand people are harmless, how can these real military exploits be given to an earl? I can't tell you why, don't blame me for slapping you. "The Emperor is staring at the Emperor, ready to strike at any moment.

"Ah, father, the military exploits are real, and you also said it to the emperor, it's at the top.

But this Jia Hui is only seventeen, he was made a marquis at the age of seventeen, and he will make military merits in a few years, so he really wants to be crowned a prince in his twenties? ”

"If you have merit, you have to be rewarded, and if you make mistakes, you have to be punished, why don't you give people real military merits? Besides, I didn't say that I wouldn't give the county marquis and the county duke. ”

"Huh? Then why haven't I seen a county marquis? "The emperor was shocked by Taizu.

"If you don't learn something that doesn't have skills, the Liguo Mansion back then was the county duke, and then it was added to the national duke after making enough military achievements, and then no one mentioned it for the sake of good looks.

and the founding scholar of the year, Ling Shi, the old lady, if it weren't for his younger brother who abandoned the army and fled and affected the old lady, he would have been a prince of the country a long time ago! How can it be like now, a bowling county marquis is up to now? ”

"Huh? The historian turned out to be a county marquis? ”

The Emperor looked at the Emperor in surprise and wanted to say something, but he held back. poured a cup of tea into his stomach, pinched Yuzhang hard, and continued.

"When the Great Qi was founded, because the world was fought too fast, there were not many hard battles, except for a few people such as the Jia family and the four kings, who were enough to be knighted, the rest of the people were not enough to be knighted.

In order to stabilize people's hearts, Taizu retained the two titles of county marquis and county duke.

If it exceeds the standard of a marquis but is not much, and he can't fight the duke before he dies, he is made a marquis.

Those who are one line away from the duke but far from the first two kings and three dukes are also taking care of their face, so they gave them the county duke.

Later, because of defeat, crime, implication or even extinction, he lost his title for various reasons, and there were many fewer knights.

In the end, Taizong, my father, when your imperial grandfather first ascended to the great treasure, he added another seal, re-sealed the ministers, and organized it, and the title depends on the level of the fictitious food.

In fact, it can be seen now that the false sealing of 2,000 households below the county marquis, 5,000 households below the county marquis, 8,000 households below the county princes, and the first Ningrong town duke are all over 10,000 households.

After that, it seemed that only the fourth-class title of duke and uncle remained. ”

The Emperor paused, his eyes looking at the teacup. The emperor hurriedly got up to refill the water.

"If you don't have the eyesight to see something, you have to be reminded by Lao Tzu before you refill the water, hum."

The emperor laughed again and again.

"So, it seems that only the fourth rank of the prince and uncle remains, but in fact, Taizong has not abolished the sixth-class lord system, and there is no problem with sealing these two knights, at most it is a retro ceremony, not even an ancient ceremony, and it is less than a hundred years ago.

Now, the founding nobles have been reduced to generals one after another, leaving the earl of the Niu family, the viscount of the Liu family and the King of Beijing of the Shui family who have retained the title of superb.

The two kings of the east and west also fell to the marquis, and the king of Nan'an fell to the earl, and these three families still called themselves kings for the sake of face, and Lao Tzu was too lazy to care. Other than these, the rest are no longer noble.

Take this opportunity to reactivate the sixth knight, which will be enough to reward you.

If the founding dignitaries come to make trouble, don't bother with them, this group of dogs has already taken advantage of Taizu Taizong, and the old people in their family know in their hearts that they can't stand still, and they will disperse if they make enough trouble.

After this reward, you will also have your own group of nobles and loyalists. ”

The emperor looked at the emperor in a complicated way, although this dog-like son has such and such shortcomings, but he is also diligent, and he is more and more disciplined in handling court affairs, he can barely sit on that chair, and the court can no longer afford to take the heir once.

As for the eldest son, King Yizhong, I just owe it to the boss to favor that kid, and how could such a well-behaved good boy have that kind of thought?

Hearing the Emperor's loving words, the Emperor couldn't help but cry.

It's been three years, do you know how I've spent the past three years? In the past three years, there has been no news of the import of Tianding in the harem, and now, it can be regarded as boiled out.

"Father, son..."

"Needless to say, Timur's war is here, and then, there is only Heshuot, pay more attention, I'm tired, get out."

After saying that, the emperor lay down in the rocking chair and closed his eyes.

The emperor didn't sit down in excitement, and quickly walked to the door of the West Garden, and looked back at the door plaque of the West Garden, which was so pleasing to the eye for the first time.
