Chapter 782: Splitting the Soil and Sealing the Territory
Not long after sending Qian Qianyi away, someone suddenly came from the palace and said that it was Princess Kunxing who summoned him.
"The princess is looking for you, go quickly, don't let the princess wait, these things can be talked about later." Gu Junen urged, but there was a strange smile in his eyes.
Chen Yue knew what Gu Junen was thinking, so he glanced at him angrily, and then took his guards and followed the person straight out of the house.
It was the eunuch Ma Xiang who came to pass the princess's decree, but he was an old acquaintance, and it was he who went to Jiujiang to pass the decree to let Chen Yue move to Wuchang. After the palace was cleaned, Han Zanzhou's henchmen were all disposed of, Ma Xiang was not Han Zanzhou's person, plus he was honest, he was promoted to be the eunuch of the ceremonial eunuch, and often served Princess Kunxing, and he was considered a trustworthy person of Princess Kunxing.
"Father-in-law Ma, but I don't know what the princess saw me?" On the way, Chen Yue asked Ma Xiang.
Knowing the intimate relationship between Chen Yue and Princess Kunxing, Ma Xiang didn't dare to hide it at all, and said respectfully: "Grandpa Guo, you can call me Ma Xiang or Xiao Xiangzi, the princess wants to see you because Shi Kefa, the first assistant of the cabinet, went to see the princess just now, and there was a dispute over some things." ”
In Ma Xiang's narration, Chen Yue learned what happened. But it turned out that Shi Kefa went to see Princess Kunxing today, for the ceremony and etiquette of Kunxing's ascension to the throne of the prison country tomorrow and the reward of Chen Yue, the Duke of Qi.
The etiquette of supervising the country is simple, although it has never been said that a woman is a prince, but Kun Xing is Chongzhen's daughter after all, and the supervision of the country as a princess is equivalent to the prince, and it can be carried out in accordance with the etiquette of the prince. After the Ministry of Rites came up with the etiquette procedures, after Shi Kefa reported it to Kun Xing, Kun Xing agreed at once.
But then there is the issue of Chen Yue's reward, and the first thing Kun Xing did when he took office as a supervisor should be Chen Yue's reward, which was also a condition negotiated between Shi Kefa and Chen Yue when they negotiated.
According to the agreement reached, Chen Yue was appointed as the governor of the capital. The Ministry of Rites discussed several alternative kings, including King Wuyi, King Xuanwei, etc., all of which were two-word county kings, and they were all vetoed in front of Kunxing.
Princess Kunxing said that Chen Yue was originally the Duke of Qi, and he was directly named the King of Qi, and Princess Kunxing also had a layer of meaning, she would marry Chen Yue in the future, and the identity of the county king did not match her princess of the prison country.
Although the prince of the county is one layer behind, the actual difference is not big, and Shi Kefa agreed without much argument, but who knew that Princess Kunxing actually wanted to give Chen Yue a fief, and she wanted to give Chen Yue a fief in Shandong, and the real king of the land was torn apart, which made Shi Kefa angry at once.
This is the practice of most dynasties that different surnames are not allowed to be crowned kings, of course, with Chen Yue's merits and the current special period, the Ming Dynasty is stormy, without Chen Yue, there would be no current Ming court, and the foreign captives and internal criminals, these all need Chen Yue to lead troops to pacify, and it is understandable to reward heroes and boost morale.
But the fiefdom is different, you must know that even the prince of the Ming Dynasty does not have his own fief, saying that the fief is more or less, in fact, it is only according to the fief to enjoy the treatment, by the court allocated to him Lu Lu rice, send the official to manage the fief, the vassal king himself does not have any rights.
But Princess Kunxing wants to give Shandong to Chen Yue, which means that Shandong will be Chen Yue's independent kingdom from now on. Although Princess Kunxing said that Shandong is still in the hands of Manchu, and the enclosure to Chen Yue is just to encourage Chen Yue to go on the Northern Expedition to recover the old land as soon as possible, why not take the land that does not belong to the Ming Dynasty to Chen Yue?
In Shi Kefa's view, the northern territory will be recovered sooner or later, and if Shandong is really given to Chen Yue, Shandong will become a country within a country in the future, which will fuel Chen Yue's ambition to replace the Ming Dynasty.
Helplessly, Princess Kunxing's stubborn temper came up, and she had to insist on sealing the domain, so she broke up unhappily, and Shi Kefa left angrily. Princess Kunxing was very angry, so she asked people to call Chen Yue.
Chen Yue couldn't help but be stunned after figuring out the reason, they all said that girls are outgoing, and the ancients were honest and not bullied, could it be that Princess Kunxing wanted to pass on the country to herself?
......
Princess Kunxing was very angry, her mouth was pouting, and her face was bulging.
"Oh, who made our princess angry, damn it." Chen Yue said with a grin.
Seeing Chen Yue, the anger on Princess Kunxing's face disappeared, but she still said angrily, "It's not Shi Kefa's old man, I can't withdraw him sooner or later." ”
"You will soon be in prison, as long as Your Majesty does not wake up, you will be the king of a country, of course, you can withdraw whoever you want." Chen Yue said with a smile, "But Shi Ge Lao, it's better not to remove, he has too much reputation among the people of Shilin, if even he is removed, the imperial court will have no prestige at all." ”
"It's still Chen Yue, you know the general situation, unlike Shi Kefa, the old man, who is very stubborn and can't eat the ancients." Princess Kunxing wrinkled her nose and said.
Chen Yue smiled bitterly, "Don't call other people's old men, Shi Ge Lao is not yet fifty years old, not old." Besides, he is now a scholar of the Shoufu University and the head of the civil officials of the imperial court, and an old man like you is too disrespectful to him, and it is not good to spread it. ”
Princess Kunxing stuck out her tongue, "Okay, okay, people won't shout in the future, isn't this old and old Shi Ge confused." By the way, Ma Xiang told you that he didn't tell you the reason why I quarreled with Shi Gelao? ”
Chen Yue smiled, "Ma Xiang said, in fact, Shi Ge Lao is right, it is already an exception to be crowned a prince, and there is no previous dynasty that has split the soil and sealed the territory." ”
Princess Kunxing: "But you have made so many contributions, and you will continue to fight for the Ming Dynasty in the future, I feel sorry for you if you don't tear the ground!" ”
Chen Yue shook Kun Xing's hand with emotion, "I know you are good to me, otherwise, you will give me Dongfan Island, it is a desert island with no people overseas, and it is not the territory of the Ming Dynasty, so that Shi Ge Lao and the ministers in the court should no longer object." ”
"Dongfan is just a desolate island overseas, how can this be?" Princess Kunxing hesitated and said, "Haven't you always wanted to fight Luzon, or I will give you all the Luzon and Ryukyu Wa Kingdoms, and the overseas islands you conquer in the future will be the territory of your King of Qi!" ”
Chen Yue laughed: "Manchu hasn't been driven away yet, and the land of the Ming Dynasty has not been recovered, where do I have time to take care of Luzon, besides, you gave me so many overseas islands and let me fight them one by one, do you want to exhaust me to death?" ”
"I don't want to exhaust you to death," Princess Kunxing snuggled into Chen Yue's arms and said, "Besides, if you can't finish the fight, let us let our future children fight." ”
"Oh?" Chen Yue picked up the chin of Princess Kunxing in his arms with his hand, and asked with a smile, "I want to ask the princess, how can we have children?" ”
Princess Kunxing was suddenly ashamed, and pushed Chen Yue away, "Get out......
