Invincible son

Chapter 1098 1099 [Duke of the Kingdom of Wei]

In the seventh year of Kaiping, the second day of July.

It coincided with the Great Dynasty of Shuowang, and it was also the first great court meeting after the new king ascended the throne. It can be said that everyone paid attention to it.

At the first moment of Maoshi, the square in front of Chengtian Temple was crowded with people, including civil servants and military heroes.

At this time, more than a month had passed since the rebellion, and the 27-day filial piety period stipulated in the last emperor's edict had also ended. Numerous cleanings in the palace had already wiped away the traces left by the rebels and the official army.However, I don't know if it's an illusion, standing in the cool summer morning breeze, the court princes seem to be able to smell the bloody smell that filled Miyagi that day.

Suddenly there was a commotion in the crowd, and most people turned their eyes to the Chengtianmen. When they saw a young Wu Xun walking with an old man on his arm, some people couldn't help frowning, and some showed a little envy. .

Mo Haoli seemed old and dim-sighted, but he said to Pei Yue who was holding his arm: "Do you think those people are envious of the old man being supported, or are they envious of you and Zuo Zhizhi's close friends?"

Pei Yue said frankly: "They should be envious of the younger generation."

Mo Haoli smiled, and said meaningfully: "After today, I'm afraid it may not be so."

Naturally, Pei Yue now does not treat the old man around him as a pure civil servant. Judging from the past events, this old man is the most trusted courtier of Emperor Kaiping.

He said unhurriedly: "My lord, to tell you the truth, this title is not necessarily a good thing for the imperial court. It's just that this is the last emperor's will, and your majesty is a pure and filial person, so naturally he won't Violation. If the younger generation can make their own decisions, it is the right way to postpone it later."

Mo Haoli blinked and said, "Worried that you won't be rewarded for your future achievements?"

Pei Yue sighed and said: "Yes, there is no precedent for Daliang to confer kings with different surnames. If the younger generation pacifies the Southern Dynasty, how will His Majesty confer rewards then? If there is no reward, there will inevitably be criticism from the ruling and opposition parties."

Mo Hao gifted Pei Yue's seemingly arrogant words, and said leisurely: "If you can really rule the world for Daliang, why not be crowned king?"

Pei Yue said casually: "My lord is more and more fond of making fun of juniors."

The two looked at each other, and then laughed at the same time, as if this conversation was really just a few casual jokes.

Mo Haoli changed the subject and said, "The new king will not suddenly go to war suddenly, but there will be some adjustments."

The so-called obedience and listening, the old man's words clearly represent the emperor's will.After Wang Pingzhang Fuzhu and the generals of his faction have tied their hands, the power structure in the army will inevitably be out of balance, especially when Pei Yue and Gu Liang are advancing and retreating together, it is difficult for the senior generals to completely avoid this pair of Weng sons-in-law.

Pei Yue nodded and said, "This is the meaning of the question."

Mo Haoli patted the back of his hand lightly and said: "It's so good. Pei Yue, this old man will return to his hometown after preparing for the new king and Yuan Dynasty. This old bone really can't last long. If you have time during this time, you can do it as soon as possible." Come and have a sit at my house. Luo Jiyu and Han Gongduan found this old man a few days ago, and they plan to use these few years to solve some political problems, so you can come up with some ideas."

Pei Yue smiled and said: "My lord, the younger generation is a relative of Wu Xun, so you can't meddle in the government affairs."

"There is no unchanging truth."

Mo Haoli shook his head slightly, and then said: "Since Emperor Gaozu, there has never been an ancestral system in which civil and martial arts are not interlinked. Otherwise, why could Li Bingzhong be moved to be the governor of the five armies? How could your best friend Tang Youzhi?" Take over as governor of Lingzhou? Speaking of which, this is a fault handed down from the Taizong dynasty, because at that time your ancestor's status in the army was too high, even the Emperor Taizong respected him three points, and even the Wu Xun relatives were domineering Civil servants can only stick together, so that they can barely implement the government."

Pei Yue knew that he was referring to Pei Yuan, the first Duke Dingguo, who lived to be 96 years old.

After thinking for a while, Pei Yue nodded and said, "Since my lord has a life, then this junior should bring a pair of ears to learn more."

Mo Hao stopped at the ceremony and said softly: "Your Majesty is young, and sometimes he is not sophisticated enough in dealing with things. If you have different opinions in your heart, you might as well be more tolerant."

Pei Yue responded calmly, but doubts arose in his heart.

The old man next to him would certainly not be aimless, this was his second reminder in a short period of time, and his words were extremely soft.

Looking at the majestic and towering Chengtian Palace, he thought silently: "What kind of trouble are you trying to make when you have just ascended the throne? Could it be that the dragon chair really has an immediate effect on people's changes?"

……

The new king is coming to the court, and the officials shouted long live.

There was no old rule in Daliang that a prince was in power, so after the enthronement ceremony, Liu Xian revoked the right of the second prince to observe the government, and sent him, the ninth prince, and the eleventh prince to the mausoleum of Xingliang Mansion to guard the throne for Emperor Kaiping. Mausoleum March to fulfill filial piety.

This move did not attract opposition from the courtiers, because this was the rule of the Tian family for nearly a hundred years.

When Emperor Taizong passed away, Zhongzong asked Princess Qiyang to go to the imperial mausoleum to perform her filial piety after she ascended the throne.

Even though Princess Qi Yang had many confidantes in the court and the military, there was no disturbance caused by this matter, and it was even more impossible for the princes of Emperor Kaiping to speak out against it.Once the hat of unfilial piety is off, they can't even keep their titles as princes, and it's not uncommon for them to be demoted to common people.

Therefore, in today's spacious and spacious Chengtian Hall, apart from the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty and the internal eunuchs, there is only one member of the Tian family, and that is the new emperor Liu Xian sitting on the dragon chair.

For the first official court meeting in his life, Liu Xian has practiced many times in the harem, but at this moment he still can't calm down, he is both nervous and excited, and at the same time has some unknown emotion.

From today onwards, he is the supreme emperor of Liang, with the supreme authority of life and death in his hands.

Looking at the civil and military officials in the palace who were toppled like ears of wheat in the wind, Liu Xian, wearing a crown on his head and wearing a black uniform, held the armrest firmly, and said loudly with a trembling tone: "Everyone is flat."

The ministers thanked En and got up.

Liu Xian secretly breathed a sigh of relief, although no one could threaten his throne right now even if he did not speak these four words well enough, but every time he thought of the late emperor's expectations, he would not allow himself to make any mistakes.

What's more, the queen mother kept mentioning these points these days, and he also knew that he was still far away from the prestige and achievements of his father. If he wanted to really sit firmly on this dragon chair, this dragon robe alone would definitely not be able to subdue the crowd of heroes below. Heart.

So he said loudly: "My dear family, the imperial court should clearly distinguish rewards and punishments, so that the hearts of the people all over the world will fall in love with me. A month ago, the rebel Wang Pingzhang rebelled, and the capital was in danger. Fortunately, a group of loyal civil servants Wu Xun helped Only by protecting the country can Daliang be freed from civil strife. Therefore, after discussing with the princes of the two prefectures, I personally draw up a list of rewards."

"My Emperor Shengming."

The ministers shouted.

Liu Xian smiled slightly, then turned to look at Hou Yu, who was known to the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

The latter understood, took two steps forward and stood on the edge of the imperial steps, spread out a bright yellow imperial decree, and read aloud: "Fengtian Chengyun Emperor, the order said: First-class Zhongshan Marquis Pei Yue, who is close to Mao Shishi, is not afraid of life and death." , to turn the tide, to help the country, to kill the leader of the rebel Wang Pingzhang, to put down the rebellious army inside and outside the capital, and to set an example for the civil and military ministers of the country, and I canonize you as the Duke of Wei, hereby!"

The hall was silent, and countless eyes shot at the young dignitary standing behind the two military aircraft.

The weak crown of the year, the lord of the duke!
