The whole Anwang Mansion is full of lights, more than 20 acres of land, all festive decorations, window decal paper, eaves hanging ribbons, the momentum is not weaker than marriage. The soldiers patrolled back and forth, all of them raised their heads and chests, the servants shuttled and walked, all of them were full of spring breeze, and the maids were carrying tea and pouring water, all of which were laughing and talking.

The main courtyard has been full of people, the subordinate officials of the palace perform their duties, some of them arrange high platforms and honor guards with the officials of Zongzheng Temple, and most of them are responsible for greeting the princes and nobles who come to watch the ceremony.

"Why are so many people here?" Shangguan Chengcheng, who was armed with a sword, walked into the courtyard gate, and saw the scene of people in the courtyard, and a trace of astonishment climbed on his snow-white face.

"Look strange. Puwang Li Yan just entered the door, and when he heard Shangguan Allure's words, he replied with a smile, "The princes and nobles of Chang'an City, dignitaries and dignitaries, who doesn't want to see how they have changed overnight from an ordinary person who can't practice to the son of King An, who is a handsome man in the clan...... Oh, from today onwards, there is no need to be called the prince of the world, it should be called His Royal Highness King An. ”

As he spoke, Li Yan walked into the main courtyard laughing.

"Why does His Royal Highness King Pu seem to be happier than us?"

"His Royal Highness...... He's a wonderful guy. ”

It didn't take long for the drums to beat and the ceremony began.

Unlike at the beginning of the month, when Zongzheng Temple came to crown Li Ye, it just sent an official casually, and it was Wu Hongshan himself who came back to preside over the ceremony.

"Look, Li Ye is out. In the curtain on the west side, the prince of Wu Wang was the first to stand up and looked at the door of the hall to the north.

"That's His Royal Highness King An. If the prince doesn't want to cause any trouble, or is noticed by the officials of Zongzheng Temple, it is better to change his mind early. Beside King Wu, Chen Guogong said slowly.

King Wu's face changed, and he glanced at Chen Guogong angrily, but finally didn't say anything. He looked back, in his sight, Li Ye was still dressed in the high-crowned Bo belt and sword boots at the beginning of the month, but the dark crown robe was replaced by the Panlong King robe, and there were more armor soldiers behind him, and the temperament of the whole person changed, and a lot of majesty was born out of thin air.

King Wu Shizi just glanced at it, and couldn't help but snort coldly, with a look of jealousy in his eyes.

When Li Ye stepped onto the high platform, he glanced around the scene in the courtyard, the place was still the same place at the beginning of the month, and the people were almost the same people, but the layout of the scene, I don't know how much more prosperous than at the beginning of the month, and everyone's expressions and reactions were also very different.

On his way to the high platform, the officials of the palace on both sides, and the officials who came to watch the ceremony, all stood up and congratulated each other, and took the initiative to talk with a smile on their faces, and the princes who were a little farther away also turned their eyes.

Looking at those subordinate officials and servants, they were all in high spirits, watching him closely, and some young maids were holding their chests with both hands, with a red face and full of admiration, just like those star-chasing girls in later generations, seeing the idols in their minds.

Li Ye laughed secretly in his heart, came to Wu Hongshan, and bowed.

Wu Hongshan didn't have any special expression on his face, but his eyes also looked a little strange, he looked at the young prince in front of him, and said secretly in his heart: "Why didn't you see it before, this son is already quite heroic? ”

Li Ye was also looking at Wu Hongshan, different from the crown ceremony at the beginning of the month, at this moment his heart was like water, without the slightest wave, and even thought freely: "This Wu Hongshan is a snob, if he becomes my father-in-law in the future, wouldn't it be embarrassing to get along?"

The etiquette is cumbersome, so let's not talk about it.

"Licheng. Wu Hongshan, on behalf of the imperial court and the Tang Emperor, put on the crown for Li Ye, took a few steps back and saluted solemnly: "I have seen His Royal Highness King An." ”

If you talk about dignity, the concubine is naturally inferior to the prince, and Li Ye is the prince of the clan.

According to the law of the Tang Dynasty, the heir to the prince will descend by one level per generation, that is to say, the son of the prince can only get the prince of the county in the end - but if the heir is at the age of the crown and the cultivation has reached the qi training period, it is not subject to this limit, so what Li Ye inherited is still the title of the prince.

This is also the reason why the prince of Wu is jealous of Li Ye, who is already in his twenties, but he is only in the realm of grandmasters, and after the death of the old king Wu, he will inevitably only get the title of a county king.

The sun was just right, the spring breeze was blowing, Li Ye turned around on the high platform, facing the guest seat in the south.

"Congratulations to His Royal Highness King An!" the princes, nobles, and dignitaries all bowed and saluted.

Li Ye smiled slightly.

"King An is indeed extraordinary, I said earlier that His Royal Highness will be able to inherit the mantle of King An. An official sighed.

"Tiger fathers have no dogs. Now that the border is full of troubles and civil strife, it is the time when heroes are needed, King An will be able to walk out of Chang'an City in the future, and he will be able to make contributions to the Tang Dynasty like the old King An!" an old clan sighed.

The subordinate officials and servants of the palace saluted in unison, according to their own identities, bowed their hands, and bowed down: "Meet His Royal Highness King An!"

The princes and nobles talked a lot, and they congratulated him non-stop, and after Li Ye stepped off the high platform, many people took the initiative to come forward and talk to him warmly.

Li Ye smiled, talked with everyone, took free time, and said to everyone: "The palace has set up a big banquet, all the princes, please sit down with the solitary!"

......

Outside the gate of King An's Mansion.

Li Guan's writing sank like water.

"Bold! actually blocked the Duke of State from entering the palace?" beside Li Guanshu, a guard reprimanded loudly.

"His Royal Highness has an order, Xing Guogong is not allowed to enter the Anwang Mansion!" Shangguan Chengcheng raised his chin slightly, looking like no one in his eyes.

"So many dignitaries and dignitaries can go in, but the prince can't go in?" the guards were furious.

"Why can't Guogong enter the mansion, don't you have a point in your heart?" Shangguan Chengcheng sneered.

"Li Ye's guy is simply too deceitful!" "The guard is anxious, and he is about to have a seizure.

Shangguan Chengcheng had already taken the lead in pressing the handle of the knife, glaring at the other party menacingly: "Call King An's name, you are looking for death?"

"Enough!" Li Guanshu flicked his sleeves, of course he knew that the reason why Li Ye did this was to humiliate him, and he was resentful in his heart, but there was something more important now, "Where is Li Yao?"

Shangguan Chengcheng then put away the knife, raised his hand and ordered: "Bring people out." ”

Suddenly, Jiaomen used a carriage, and Shangguan Allure smiled inexplicably: "Li Yao is there." ”

Li Guanshu loved his son and didn't say much to Shangguan Chengcheng, but he never lost his temper, his steps were steady and he came to the carriage, opened the curtain and saw that Li Yao was really sitting in the carriage, but Li Yao's face was pale and his breath was weak, as if he was seriously ill.

"Father ......" Seeing Li Guanshu, Li Yao's heart was mixed, and he burst into tears unconsciously.

"Yao'er ......" Li Guanshu, as a monk in the middle of Qi training, discovered Li Yao's abnormality at a glance, he quickly picked up the other party's wrist, and after a brief inspection, his face changed greatly, "Your cultivation is ......."

Li Yao burst into tears and gritted his teeth: "Li Ye, that dog thief, has abolished his cultivation!"

"Li Ye!" Li Guanshu couldn't hold back his anger anymore, turned around from the carriage, and roared at the gate of the palace.

Li Yao was originally a sect handsome, a genius in cultivation, and he was destined to have a bright future, as long as there was no accident, it would not be difficult to surpass Li Guanshu in the future.

But now, Li Yao has no cultivation, and he fell from heaven to hell in an instant, and in the future, don't say that he has made meritorious contributions and is in a high position, he has no hope of even becoming a leader, so he can only be a cloth shirt!

For the children of the clan, cloth clothes are waste.

Shangguan Chengcheng was still in front of the gate of the palace and did not leave, she sneered: "Your Highness said, a few days ago, the palace was attacked by Pang Xun's rebellious party, fortunately Yao Gongzi came to the aid in time, the palace can be preserved, Yao Gongzi bravely killed the thief, unfortunately he was seriously injured, His Royal Highness is very grateful, if the prince has any dispatch in the future, An Wangfu is bound to go all out." ”

Now that these words are coming out of Shangguan Chengcheng's mouth, the irony is particularly strong, and it has the effect of punishing the heart.

Li Guanshu was so angry that the muscles on his face twitched, and he couldn't wait to make a move immediately, step on the Ping'an Palace, and take off Li Ye's head.

"Father, kill him, help your son kill him, and avenge your son!" Li Yao struggled to lean out of the carriage and yelled at Li Guanshu in a hoarse voice.

Li Guanshu also wants to avenge Li Yao.

But he can't, can he really rush into King An's mansion and murder the Prince of the Tang Dynasty?

"Where are the others?" Li Guanshu stared at Shangguan Allure, when Li Yao attacked King An's Mansion, he took away more than a dozen Qi cultivation cultivators from the Guogong Mansion, although there were no big masters among those people, but they were also the backbone of the guests of the Guogong Mansion, which was very important to Li Guanshu.

"No one else. "Shangguan Allure is hard to say," Pang Xun rebellious party, fortunately Yao Gongzi fought bravely, and they were all ambushed. ”

After that, Shangguan Chengcheng hugged his fists: "Don't send it." ”

After speaking, without saying a word, he turned around and walked into the palace cleanly.

Of course Li Ye would not return Li Muzhao's monks to Li Guanshu, they are all qi practitioners, they are all powerful people, Li Ye will not be stupid enough to let the tiger return to the mountain. Weakening the enemy's strength to the greatest extent is what Li Ye should do.

"Father, kill him, kill him......"

Li Yao wept bitterly in the carriage.

Li Guan's writing sank like water, and he didn't say a word.

......

At night, in the east study of King An's Mansion, Li Ye was receiving a distinguished guest.

Zhongshu Shilang, Tongping Zhangshi Wang Duo.

As the highest-ranking people in Chang'an City, and even in the Tang Dynasty, Wang Duo's understanding of Li Ye's inheritance of the title of King An is certainly not comparable to those princes and nobles who can only flatter Li Ye at today's ceremony.

The truth of King An's death is the secret, whether there is any understanding of this secret, divided into two different classes of court officials, and it is the real big man who understands it, and no matter how noble the identity looks if he does not understand, in front of the imperial power, he is actually only a marginal role.

Li Ye is no stranger to Wang Duo.

When the old King of An, Li Xian, was alive, Wang Duo was also a frequent visitor to the Anwang Mansion.

After Li Xian's death, Wang Duo, like Wu Hongshan, almost didn't come back.

Therefore, when Li Ye expressed to Wang Duo that he wanted to talk to him in depth, he was not without surprise.

However, Li Ye has no ill feelings towards Wang Duo, and there is no doubt that the other party is a loyal and upright minister.

After the polite greetings, the conversation between the two got to the point.

"Your Highness has now inherited the prince, what are your plans in the future?" Wang Duo asked Li Ye with a kind eyebrow, like an old man facing a junior who had high hopes for him.

"If the younger generation wants to become a leader, please ask the prince for advice. Li Ye replied. This is inevitable, the prince gave Li Ye an identity, but he did not let him have power, if he wants to have power, of course he must be an official.

Wang Duo said solemnly: "Your Highness has formed an indissoluble grudge with Xing Guogong, and Xing Guogong is the right-hand man of Wei Gong. If His Royal Highness lives in the palace and does not come out, although he can't show his strength, but Xing Guogong wants to be unfavorable to His Royal Highness, in fact, he has no way to start, and once His Royal Highness walks out of the palace to seek work, it is to give the other party a chance. ”
