Chapter 66 The Imperial Court Seals the Officials
"Haha, my sister is my bosom friend, you know me best, I want to go to Mount Tai now, as long as the Sword Palace has an appointment, I will go to Mount Tai!" Xiao Han said happily.
"Then, can my sister go with me?" Princess Taiping asked expectantly.
"Yes, I wish my sister would accompany me every day, as long as the Sword Palace doesn't object, I heard that they have always kept it a secret!" Xiao Han said helplessly.
"Oh, okay then, I hope Master Li Shan's mother can take me there, hehe, she must have a way!" Princess Taiping said.
"Haha, that's right, it's better to beg her old man than to beg me, in short, as long as possible, I must take Sister Taiping there!" Xiao Han said resolutely.
"Okay, thank you, Brother Han, then, why don't you want that King of Tranquility? Aren't we connected to be 'Taiping Anning'? Why did Brother Han refuse?" Princess Taiping said.
"Taiping, the current situation is complicated, my identity is the son of Prince Chengqian, if I am crowned king again, maybe those old ministers will come to persuade me to take the throne again, including those important ministers; if that is the case, a storm will be inevitable, and I don't know how many people will be on the ground! You say, can I be the prince? I will be the best guest lord, and I can serve my father, the queen mother, and Taiping at any time; lest Prince Hong be blind!" Xiao Han finished analyzing the current situation as he understood.
"Oh, I see, Brother Han is too clever, okay, Taiping listens to you, hehe, it's a pity, it's a pity, it's a pity that this title of prince, Brother Han is too free, Taiping will always love you!" After speaking, Princess Taiping couldn't help but kiss him again.
"Okay, Taiping, don't be like this in public, after all, we are brother and sister!" Xiao Han hurriedly said.
"I don't care, hehe, I'm Princess Taiping, I like whoever I want, no one cares, except for Brother Han, who dares to say me, I cut off his head, could it be that Brother Han doesn't like Taiping anymore?" Princess Taiping said quietly.
"That's okay, Brother Han will always love my sister Taiping!" Xiao Han hurriedly kissed her back, and Princess Taiping smiled again.
At this time, a guard had already come to talk: "Princess, the Ministry of Rites said that the Manufacturing Department currently does not have a court dress suitable for Prince Xiaohan, and I only have to wait for a few days, please forgive the princess!"
"Forget it, my brother Han just ignores this, just this civilian costume is the best, haha, how heroic, my brother Han looks good in everything, you go back to the Ministry of Rites, take your time in court clothes, I will personally design the best costume for my brother Han, hum, what kind of people are they, I can't do any small things, go, tell them according to my original words!" Princess Taiping said.
When the guard heard this, he quickly bowed his head and ran back to reply.
"Taiping, you still have to pay attention to what you say in the future, you are the best princess in our Tang Dynasty, you should be polite to officials, then you can show your princess's demeanor, okay?" Xiao Han couldn't help but say.
"Okay, what Brother Han said, I'll apologize to them in a while, okay?" Princess Taiping said.
"That's not necessary, just pay attention next time, you look at the mother, easily make the minister obedient, you have to learn her methods and methods, hehe, Taiping must be the best!" Xiao Han said.
"Ah, it turns out that Brother Han worships his mother, okay, Brother Han, you are so good!" After speaking, he kissed him again.
"Okay, don't talk about these things, Taiping, remember, you are the symbol of the Tang Dynasty, beautiful, noble, generous, tolerant, and behave in line with the demeanor and demeanor of the royal princess, okay?" Xiao Han said again.
"Thank you, Brother Han, Taiping understands, from today on, Taiping strives to be the best Taiping in Brother Han's heart, Brother Han, kiss me and encourage me!" Princess Taiping said.
"Yes, good girl, Taiping is the best, my brother likes you!" After speaking, Xiao Han kissed her again.
Princess Taiping's eyes lit up again, and that face, just like the plum blossoms beside her, was so red that it covered the sun's face.
At this time, Gaozong Li Zhi's attendant Tailin Qin Gonggong came and said: "Princess Taiping, Lord Xiaohan, the emperor and the queen are going to the court, please go to the court together." ”
"Oh, okay, thank you Gonggong Qin! Let's go, Brother Han, let's go to court with our father and mother!" Princess Taiping said.
"But, I'm carrying black snow! Didn't I say that the court was not allowed to carry weapons?" Xiao Han hurriedly said.
"The queen mother has ordered, allow Lord Xiao Han to bring a sword to the court, Lord Xiao Han's privileges are the same as Marshal Qin, you can beat the unfilial prince at the top, and punish the lawless courtiers at the bottom, no one is an exception!"
"Huh?" When Xiao Han heard this, he couldn't help but open his mouth wide, his eyes were also round, he couldn't believe it: the rules of the Tang Dynasty were quite strict, no one had ever dared to carry weapons to the court, at present, only Lu Wang Cheng and Qin Huaiyu had this privilege, but he didn't expect that he would have this honor!
"Let's go, Brother Han, it seems that the father and the queen mother have regarded you as the general in front of the palace, haha, you are their best loyal bodyguard, hehe, go, Brother Han, let's go to the court!" After speaking, Princess Taiping had already taken Xiao Han's arm and walked towards the imperial study.
Seeing them, Gaozong Li Zhi said happily: "Han'er, let's go, let's go to the court, you and Taiping will be with us, you don't have to kneel when you see you, you don't have to kneel, you see an official!"
"Haha, this arrangement is the best, I don't know what Han'er thinks?" Wu Meiniang's face seemed to be smeared with honey.
"But is my privilege too great?" Xiao Han was a little apprehensive.
"It's not big, it's not big at all, isn't it, Your Majesty, Han'er is now the Optimus Prime of our Tang Dynasty, haha, I want to see what the attitude of those old faces is, I'm afraid, even if some people are old, they will also be jealous, especially the Cheng Biting Jin who relies on the old and sells the old, haha, I really want to see his expression when he hears this will!" Wu Meiniang's eyes were talking again.
It seems that Xiao Han is already her weapon, her most effective weapon to balance the ministers, and she is too satisfied with him!
"Well, Han'er, the queen is right, this time, you listen to us, there are always those few faces in the court, those stereotypes are very bad, and Han'er, you have both literary talent and martial arts, only you can compete with them, so, you are duty-bound, haha, that King Lu is too domineering, Han'er, you can't be polite to him!" Gaozong Li Zhi said.
It seems that his patience with Cheng Biting Jin has also reached the limit, and he can't wait for someone to be able to restrain Cheng Biting Jin immediately, just because he is the only surviving founding father, even he can't afford to provoke him, his golden axe was personally sealed by Li Yuan in the Gaozu era, so he sometimes has to avoid three points!
"However, Han'er, don't mess with him, save some face for Emperor Gaozu and Emperor Taizong, although he is indeed sorry for Prince Chengqian, and indirectly let you suffer for so many years!" Wu Meiniang told the truth again.
At this time, Xiao Han's face suddenly appeared blue, obviously, he was still haunted by this matter; they were forced to flee and live far away in the border area, the matter of Zhou Changfeng, the matter of Sanhe Town, in the final analysis, was all thanks to Taizong and those old ministers, especially that Cheng Biting Jin, how many people did he personally dispose of? Even Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji were killed by them; and the first time they met, Cheng Biting Jin made him very unhappy, and the two of them did not have a good impression of each other!
Xiao Han's eyes even showed hatred, this is exactly what Wu Meiniang wants!
Finally, the court came, and the ministers had been waiting for a long time, and when they saw them coming, they immediately knelt down and shouted: "Long live the emperor, long live the queen, long live the queen!"
Seeing the ministers kneeling down to worship, Xiao Han didn't realize that he wanted to worship with them, Wu Meiniang already knew that she said: "Han'er doesn't need to worship, just stand with Taiping, and the ministers are exempt from courtesy and flat!"
Then the crowd took advantage of the situation. After looking at them, especially, seeing that Lu Wang Cheng was still grinning about Jin, Wu Meiniang was not happy, so she said: "Today's court, the first major event is the matter of our family Xiaohan's official seal, the day before yesterday, we decided, Xiaohan's official position is modeled after the Warring States Period, and we will be the guest of our Tang Dynasty, that is, our Tang Dynasty's foreign minister, official residence, Zhengyipin, equal to the prime minister, and Shangguan and Pei, do you have any opinions?"
"No!" the ministers hurriedly sang the promise, except for Cheng Biting Jin!
"Oh, does Cheng Lao Chitose have any opinions?" Gaozong Li Zhi was not happy when he saw it.
"I just don't know what kind of ability this Lord Xiaohan has, he can actually be a guest secretary, an adult, and what kind of foreign minister, I heard that this grade is the same as the prime minister, why? Lord Xiaohan, tell me about your ability, let Cheng listen to it, and let our big guys take a look!" Cheng Yanjin suddenly showed a provocative expression.
"Taiping, can you tell Cheng Lao Chitose what your brother Han has to do, can he be an official residence?" Wu Meiniang's eyes were unfathomable.
"Yes, Queen Mother!" Princess Taiping nodded yes, and then turned her head and said to Cheng Yanjin: "Cheng Lao Chitose, my brother Han is not very capable, in terms of martial arts, he has picked fifteen first-class masters in the Central Plains in Chang'an City, and even my master Sword Saint is willing to admit defeat, Cheng Lao Chitose, I don't know if my brother Han is capable?"
"Ahh
"In terms of cultural governance, Xu Jingye, the former Anle Hou, openly preached in the restaurant what to punish the demon queen and the Qing monarch, and also asked my brother Han to be with him and rebel together, I don't know what Cheng Lao Chitose thinks? As a result, I was knocked down on the chair by my brother Han, and I couldn't speak for a long time, do you know what my brother Han said?"
"Just say it, girl, I'm not here anymore, how do you know?" Cheng Biting Jin's mood began to be uneasy.
"My brother Han said: He is a guest of the Turkic country, the purpose of their coming to the Tang Dynasty is to promote peace and friendship between the two countries, please teach him the Hou Ye, how should he deal with himself? If he accomplishes the so-called great cause with An Lehou, then he will definitely be expelled from the Tang Dynasty, in this way, the Turkic Jieli Khan will inevitably raise an army to attack the Tang Dynasty, the two countries will suddenly start a war, the world will change color, the lives will be ruined, and countless Li people will die without a place to be buried, may I ask the Hou Ye, can he do this? What does my Han brother's original words, what does the old Chitose think?" Princess Taiping's eyes suddenly looked like a sword, staring straight at Cheng Yanjin.
"Ah!" Cheng Yanjin was speechless for a while, so he had to ask the other adults: "What do you think?"
"Old Chitose, Lord Xiaohan is polite and courteous, straight to the point, this high-level argument, obviously high-minded, far-sighted, I really can't wait, because, we have never considered the safety of the world, alas, the old man is convinced by Lord Xiaohan's high theory!" Pei Lin said ashamedly.
"Ah!" Cheng Biting Jin's eyes widened again.
"My brother Han also said: The emperor is still alive, and the crown prince Hong is not cowardly, is it possible, Hou Ye, are you willing to make the court situation more chaotic? What does Hou Ye want to do? I don't know, what does Cheng Lao Chitose think? Will your old man also be Xu Jingye's second?" Princess Taiping's words sharpened, and her voice rose a few degrees.
"Ah!" Cheng Biting Jin heard this, and suddenly felt that his head was bigger, and he couldn't speak.
