Invincible son

Chapter 165 164 [Supervision Censor]

There is a complete set of rules for the names of Daliang martial arts titles.

Guogong is a single character, and the selection range is named after the ancient place. This is the field that great Confucians are best at. They quote scriptures from the vast pile of old papers, so I won’t go into details here.There are two situations for the two-level title of Hou Bo. One is to be promoted all the way from the baron to the viscount, such as Fengcheng Hou in Li Bingzhong, who was Fengchengzi at the earliest time.The second is that because the credit is too great, the emperor will directly confer the title of uncle or marquis. Most emperors will choose a title with far-reaching meaning. This situation is more common among the founding heroes.

As for the viscount and baron, both are based on the place names in the current Daliang territory as the naming standard.

For example, the viscount of Yanshan that Li Jin was awarded, Yanshan is the name of a place in Yongzhou, and the Yanshan Guard under his command is also named after this, so it is a matter of course.The title of Viscount Zhongshan that Pei Yue was awarded seems to be only one word different from Li Jin's title, but the meaning behind it is like cloud and mud, which is why those civil servants reacted so much.

Zhongshan is the land attached to a big city called Chengjing, which is located in Qinzhou in the south.

There are two capitals in Daliang, one prefecture and thirteen prefectures, one prefecture is Xingliang Mansion, and the two capitals are Kyoto and Chengjing.

Before the founding of the country, Gao Zu went through more than a hundred battles, big and small, and there were many famous men and warriors under his command.Before Long Pankou killed Ye Cheng, the hero of the northern border, Dingguo Gong Pei Yuan was not under one man and over ten thousand people. There were still a few people with equal status to him, and one person was still above him.

This person's name is Lin Qingyuan, from the Zhongshan family, and the highest-ranking counselor around Gaozu.

When the former Wei Dynasty was on the verge of collapse, it was he who made the strategy of stealing the sky and changing the sun for Gaozu, and successfully occupied the rich area of ​​the dynasty with Kyoto as the core.In the later period when all the heroes came together, it was he who coordinated the overall situation for Gaozu and stabilized the rear.Although he was not as brave as Pei Yuan, nor did he have the spy talent of Zuo Lingchen, the first head of the Taishitai Pavilion, but everyone knew at the time that without Lin Qingyuan's strategizing, Gaozu would never be able to securely seize a large area of ​​territory and establish Liang Guo.

It's a pity that he died on the eve of the founding of Daliang, and he left a will to resolutely not to be conferred with titles, and not to confer on descendants, otherwise, with the temperament of Gaozu, he might make an exception and increase the reward, and the only king with a different surname in Daliang will appear.

Of course, Gaozu still ordered all the officials to agree on the posthumous title of "Zhongwu" for him, and let him deserve to enjoy the Taimiao, which can be said to enjoy the glory.

After the situation in the south became clearer, Gaozu built Chengjing on the basis of Zhongshan Town in Qinzhou.The official reasoning is that Daliang has a vast territory, and Kyoto is located in the north. Facing the Zhou Dynasty, which is staring at the south, the southern border desperately needs a place to make decisions in wartime.After the completion of Chengjing, it did play a very important role, especially during the tense wars with the Southern Zhou Dynasty. As the residence of the commanders of the southern camps, it played an important role in integrating the frontier army and coordinating the officials and people of the four prefectures.

Even so, whether it was the founding heroes at that time or those well-educated people in later generations, they all knew that the establishment of Chengjing by Gaozu was inseparable from Lin Qingyuan.It is said that when Lin Qingyuan passed away, Gao Zu sat on the edge of his sick bed, held his hand and wept uncontrollably, almost fainting.

Since then, Zhongshan, a small town that was originally unknown in the pre-Wei period, has become of great significance in Daliang Chaotang because it is the hometown of Lin Qingyuan.

After the eunuch finished reading Pei Yue's imperial edict, he stepped aside and stood with his head bowed.

In the spacious main hall of Chengtian Hall, there was no sound at this moment, and needles could be heard falling.

Emperor Kaiping on the dragon chair looked calm, and his narrow eyes looked from left to right at Mo Haoli and Wang Pingzhang, who stood at the head of the two classes of civil and military officials.

The faces of these two important ministers who seemed to be about the same age were indifferent, but in fact, there was already a slight wave in their hearts.Regarding the issue of rewards after the bandits were destroyed, Emperor Kaiping was very resolute, especially after he stated that the highest reward was a Viscount, Mo and Wang did not strongly oppose it.Although the imperial title is valuable, the two viscounts are not enough to affect the overall situation.

The specific titles and fiefdoms have been pending, and Emperor Kaiping waited until yesterday to decide, so the ten important officials of the two governments only found out today.Li Jin's Yanshanzi is insignificant, but Pei Yue's Zhongshanzi is hard for them to accept.

It's just that these people have practiced for decades to get to their current position. Leaving aside their abilities, the city is as deep as the sea, so they didn't rush to oppose it, because someone would definitely stand up for them.

Pei Yue stood at the end of the line, joy welled up in his heart, and he tried his best to keep calm.

Although he felt that the word Zhongshan was a little bit bad, because in his previous life he had the derogatory name of Zhongshan wolf, but he also understood that this meant that he had taken a crucial first step, and he would no longer have to use the name of Dingguo concubine. Walking among the family first, you can also steadily weave your own blueprint in the future.

He looked to the side calmly, and saw the 30-year-old seventh-rank official looking at him. This person looked very solemn, and there was even a trace of apology in his eyes.

Pei Yue didn't understand why, he and the other party were strangers, where did this apology come from?

Then he saw the other party take a step to the left, and said loudly: "My minister, supervisor Liu Zhen, please think twice, Your Majesty."

In Yushi Taizhong, the supervisory censor is the lowest-ranked official position. From the seventh rank, he is in charge of inspecting hundreds of bureaucrats, patrolling prefectures and counties, prison litigation, military service, sacrifices, camp work, and Taifu cashiers. The left and right compartments and the Compendium of Hundred Divisions.

When Liu Zhen spoke, the officials next to him almost subconsciously moved their bodies a little, trying to stay away from him.

Pei Yue could only hear a big bell ringing next to his ears. He looked at the other party with surprise on his face, unable to figure out that this thin-looking civil servant had such a loud voice.What puzzled him even more was Liu Zhen's words. If he was not mistaken, the other party should think that the emperor's edict was inappropriate?

It's not that Pei Yue was unprepared, in fact, he had long expected that today's court meeting would not go well, and his title might not be unstoppable, but he never thought that the first person to come forward would be a seventh-rank official.

What happened next surprised him even more. He only heard the voice of the inner prisoner: "Xuan Liuzhen is coming."

Without squinting, Liu Zhen walked straight into the front of the hall with his head held high.

Although he is only a seventh-rank official, in terms of temperament and demeanor alone, he is far better than those officials of the fifth and sixth ranks in front of him.

Emperor Kaiping asked, "Why think twice?"

Liu Zhen didn't care about the eyes of those important ministers beside him, bowed his head slightly to show respect, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, the title of martial arts is an important weapon in the court, and you should be very cautious about awarding it. Looking at the old rules of this dynasty, whoever is awarded the title of martial arts Those who must have military merits on the frontier. Today, the double title is rewarded. Li Jin, the commander of the Yanshan Guard, has fought in the southern border for many years and has made great contributions. It is understandable to be awarded this title. However, Pei Yue, who is only fourteen years old in Dingguo, has no merits, only for helping the Beijing camp If you wipe out hundreds of bandits, you will become a Viscount in one fell swoop, I am afraid that the people in the world will not be convinced, please think twice."

His voice was so loud and full of aura that even without the help of the special structure in the main hall, other courtiers could hear him clearly.

Many people's eyes were surprised. Although there are often Geng Jie in Yushitai, it is rare for someone as bold as Liu Zhen.

What he said was close to pointing at Emperor Kaiping's nose and calling him a faint emperor.

A 14-year-old boy can become a viscount just by proposing a few methods. What kind of tricks are rewards and punishments if they are not fools?

Luo Ting, who stood in the second place among civil servants, looked at Mo Haoli's elderly back, feeling a little surprised.

When discussing this matter in the value room, Mo Haoli finally thought that the title can be given, but not easily, otherwise the martial arts will inevitably overflow in the future, and the situation in the court will easily become unbalanced.

Now that Mo Haoli said so, Luo Ting didn't want to cause trouble, because the old man would definitely arrange everything.

However, Liu Zhen appeared and answered very abruptly. How could such rough handwriting be done by Mo Haoli?
But if Liu is really not the person he arranged, whose plan is this?
