Gu Ziyao's identity and status happen to be the right person to seal this Enqi lieutenant, which is one level higher than his own rank. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info does not fall into his status as the master of the Baishi Hall, and he is noble, Emperor Longping can make this wise decision in a hurry, and he can also be regarded as a wise king.

The rest of the people have their own rewards. For all the people in the Secret Capture Pavilion, if there is a punishment, the original punishment and punishment will be cancelled, and the general promotion without punishment will be one level. Pavilion Lord Lin and Lin Meng got a lot of money, although they didn't care about money, but the royal reward was also a glory. It can be said that everyone is happy.

This was supposed to be a normal event to offer auspicious and the emperor to reward him, but because of Gu Ziyao's unexpected knighthood, it caused a lot of disturbing rumors in the capital.

Although it is only the lowest-level enquiry lieutenant, this is also a signal, will the knighthood be released in the future, or only for Gu Ziyao?

Because of the previous rumors, many people firmly believe that the title of Emperor Longping is completely just for Gu Ziyao. Someone said mysteriously: "If your relatives are outside, you can't recognize them in person, but you can't treat them badly, so you can make an exception and be knighted, which can be regarded as sharing a little destiny." ”

Some people don't believe it, "If it's really your own child, why don't you stand shoulder to shoulder with the king?" or else you are also a prince of the country, how can you be a little horseman?"

The person who spoke before sneered: "What do you know? How can you be punished without merit? Gu Ziyao just entered the auspicious Rui this time and won a knighthood that others can't ask for in a lifetime, and in the future, don't you just make some small merits and go up one step at a time? Let me tell you, in less than ten years, this kid will be a marquis, you can see it!"

People in the market will be suspicious, but Gu Ziyao's name has left an impression in the minds of the people of Jingzhao Mansion through this incident. But the nobles who are closely related to this exceptional knighthood have different views on this matter.

The Marquis of Zhaoning in the court specially visited the Duke of Anguo for this matter, and their ancestors were crowned dukes at the time of the Jingjing, but the Duke of Anguo was more honored and favored, and several generations of grace were not surrendered. Therefore, after three generations, he is still the prince of the country, but the Hou family of Zhaoning has been demoted by one level.

Despite this, the friendship between the two families is still the same as before, and there is no deliberate distinction between high and low. An Guogong is older than Zhaoning Hou, and Zhaoning Hou's temper is more anxious than An Guogong, so he was the first to visit.

An Guocheng was chatting with the Qing guests, and it was difficult for them to do anything in the court after that, and it was difficult for them to get military power, so they could only eat, drink and have fun in their days. An Guogong is a vassal and elegant, so he raised a group of Qing guests and often talked with them to relieve loneliness.

Seeing Zhaoning Hou coming in in a hurry, An Guogong smiled and said, "I expected that you would come to look for me if you couldn't hold your breath, why, just a Grace Lieutenant made you unable to sit still?"

The Qingke obediently knew that what they were talking about would involve taboos, so they all hurriedly retreated. Marquis Zhaoning smiled bitterly, "Grandpa Guo, although he is only a lieutenant, he has broken the rules of the past hundred years. I've been in a trance for the past two days, and I'm afraid that something big will happen. ”

An Guogong saw that he was anxious, frowned and said, "Are you really worried that the emperor intends to open more knights, and this time it is to test us?"

The lord can not be indiscriminately sealed, the mandate of heaven is limited, so the title is also limited, when the dynasty is prosperous, the mandate of heaven is blazing, of course, you can seal the vassals, as the foundation of the royal family. But if the mandate of heaven is insufficient and the title of multiple lords is forced, there are only two consequences.

Either it is a turnip and a pit, the new person replaces the old one, and the old lord can only rise if the old lord is killed; or, the mandate of heaven is so overwhelmed that it is dragged to the overthrow of the imperial court.

Now life is barely peaceful, but no one is embarrassed to brag that the current Longping Dynasty can be regarded as a prosperous era, so no matter what the result, it is what the pampered nobles do not want to see.

Marquis Zhaoning sighed and said: "Although Your Majesty is not a British lord, he also has an idea, and this knighthood is precisely because he is unpredictable, so I came to Grandpa Guo to ask for an idea." ”

Emperor Longping is skillful, he will never want to play himself to death. He originally felt that these nobles were too lazy and unwilling to charge into battle for him to deal with civil officials, so he also cultivated eunuch forces, but the effect was not good, so he wanted to introduce new nobles?

An Guogong closed his eyes slightly, and said in a deep voice: "Isn't it rumored that Gu Ziyao is related to the royal family, so His Majesty gave him some compensation? If so, it should be just an example, and we will wait for everything to be as usual." ”

Zhaoninghou jumped to his feet, "This kind of talk can also deceive the ignorant people, although Your Majesty is ridiculous, often white dragon fish suit, but at most he has only been to the vicinity of Gyeonggi, where has he been to the southwest Dinghu Province? More than ten years ago, he first ascended to the throne, the throne is not stable, and he must not leave for a while, where did he give birth to such a son?"

An Guogong laughed, "Then you are right, but the heart of heaven is unpredictable, what can we do if we are a few scattered people? ”

Marquis Zhaoning was unwilling to sit still, and said hurriedly: "Grandpa Guo is our backbone, how can he be so decadent? If the emperor is not sympathetic to the old ministers, we have to think of a way." ”

"Don't act rashly!" As if to see the mind of Marquis Zhaoning, An Guogong's face sank, and he said: "We can live a stable and prosperous life, and it is already a good life for Your Majesty to have a benevolent nature." Now that the eldest girl of your family is being favored in the palace, even if Your Majesty has any thoughts, she will not be wiped out.

If you collude and collude to make a name for yourself, you will really lose the family business passed down from your ancestors. You just listen to me, wait honestly, our two families have been through ups and downs for more than a hundred years, why bother to muddy the water?"

Zhaoning Hou frowned, as if he was not convinced, but finally did not speak, and only retreated. An Guogong looked at his back and let out a long sigh.

The tree wants to be quiet and the wind does not stop, now that the emperor and the prince are out of harmony, and the princes are adults, it is inevitable that there will be some thoughts that should not be had. It's best to watch this kind of thing coldly, and don't get involved, anyway, no matter how rich their princely family is. If you are not greedy enough and encounter taboos, it will be really broken and you will never recover!

An Guogong thought about it, and sent someone to come in and instruct: "In the future, in addition to the New Year's holidays, each family will reduce movement, and you should let the wife and several sons stay at home with peace of mind and avoid causing trouble."

In addition, His Majesty added the Grace Cavalry Captain Gu Ziyao the day before yesterday, and it seems that he lives in a post house not far from our home, so he prepared a gift to send it. ”

The old housekeeper of the Anguo Mansion was secretly surprised in his heart, could it be that the rumors that his grandson had come home were true? That Gu Ziyao really had royal blood? Although he gossiped, he didn't dare to ask more, so he retreated and prepared according to the regular etiquette of the Guogong Mansion and sent it to Gu Ziyao's post house. (To be continued.) )
