Chapter 467: Killing
(Today's ninth shift is delivered, continue to ask for a monthly pass!) I would like to thank Oz Feixue Zo, Nickky, Me So, Xu Liuliu, 1 Prince 1, Benzo, Fate April, and Dream Never Completed for your monthly ticket support and rewards! Thank you! )——
The voice of the eunuch was very loud, and more than 3,000 court officials inside and outside the huge Xuanzheng Hall heard this reward. Many officials were stunned and stunned, the twenty-one-year-old three dukes and envoys, one person led the envoy of the three towns, and he actually figured Lingyan Pavilion.
Many of the gray-haired, seventy or eighty-year-old Jingguan felt that most of their lives had been in vain. They have been up and down all their lives, and most of them haven't even been able to mix up the five grades, even the light scarlet robes and silverfish bags on their bodies, which are just the rewards of the royal decree for their old age and high seniority.
But Li Jing is only twenty-one years old, he is not a relative of the emperor, let alone a wealthy family, a farmer, and his ancestors are just a small border army colonel for several generations.
The newly promoted palace attendant Wang Zou, couldn't help but want to stand up against it, but soon a colleague around him stopped him. The colleague's eyes signaled to him, and the corners of his mouth turned to the few Xiangguo and the four nobles standing under the Danqi.
The ministers of the political hall headed by Lu Xian all sat there peacefully, and none of Lu Xian, Zheng Jin, Wang Duo, Yu Cong, and Li Wei spoke out against it. Instead of objecting, they smiled. Look at the emperor's side again. Tian Lingzi, Ximen Sigong, Yang Fugong, and Zhang Tai, the four great eunuchs, were also silent.
As long as you have a little heart, you can see it. This decree was agreed upon by the government hall and the four nobles.
The Son of Heaven of the Tang Dynasty rules the world with all the others. In the late Tang Dynasty, the powerful eunuchs in the palace had to be added. The authority of the emperor is the smallest, and the holy decree is not what the emperor says, but must first be approved by the government hall and the Privy Council, and then the decree can be taken from the book, and the door will be refuted, and the book will be followed. Without the consent of the Council and the Privy Council, the Emperor's words were not recognized by the law at all. The three provinces will not complete this process.
Now since Li Jing's reward is a solemn holy decree, this shows that after the consent of the Political Affairs Hall and the Privy Council, the holy decree was drafted by the Zhongshu Province, and the subordinates refuted and deliberated, and finally sent it to the Shangshu Province to implement the holy decree. There are not only the national seals on it, but also the political affairs instructions of the ministers of the political affairs hall, and all half of the three provinces have signed and stamped on it, which is a very formal will.
Even if Wang Zou has an opinion, it has no effect at all.
The officials were amazed. Tian Lingzi breathed a sigh of relief.
The officials below only said that the reward for this holy decree was too high, but they did not know the way. Li Yi, the son of heaven, who has never been very concerned with politics and handed over all political affairs to Tian Lingzi, and is handled by the political affairs hall and the Privy Council, has rarely personally participated in Li Jing's reward this time. And the reward proposed at the beginning was even much higher than this, and the emperor actually wanted to give Li Jing the title of king. Although he is only a county king, there are many kings with different surnames in the Tang Dynasty, but this is still a shock that frightened several ministers and privy councils in the political hall, as well as the eunuchs of the north and south courts of Xuanwei.
Li Jing does have merit, but his credit is nothing. In fact, according to the rules, Li Jing's original reward has already been exceeded. I want to be a general, and when it comes to merit, I don't know how much higher than Li Jing. If Li Jing can be crowned king, then Gao Yu should have been crowned king long ago.
After some hard persuasion by everyone, the emperor was unmoved. This young son of heaven is also a little unusually appreciative of Li Jing, just like he did for Tian Lingzi at the beginning. Regardless of other people's reactions, the most stubborn one insisted on mentioning Tian Lingzi, the little pony envoy, to the hottest position now, and even called him Father.
Although Li Yi is young, he can be stubborn, but no one can persuade him.
When he was critical, Tian Lingzi suddenly had a thought in his heart. He smiled and suggested to the emperor that Li Jing was such a talented person, and he should indeed share some more burdens, but it was not appropriate to be named the king of the county all of a sudden, after all, he was still too young. However, you can exchange some rewards for Li Jing. For example, let Li Jing concurrently serve as the envoy of the Zhenguo Army, the Pinglu Army, the Lu Long Army, the Datong Army, the Chengde Army, the Yiwu Army, the Yichang Army, and the Wei Bo Eight Towns.
As soon as this proposal came out, the ministers of the political hall and several other big eunuchs were shocked.
Even the Son of Heaven was shocked, but this reward is nothing compared to the king of the county.
The five towns of Lulong, Yiwu, Chengde, Yichang, and Weibo add up to all the territories east of Taihang and north of the Yellow River. If you add the Pinglu Town in Ziqing and the Zhenguo Army in southern Liaoning, and the Datong Army in Daibei, then Li Jing's jurisdiction will already occupy most of the Kanto.
No matter how good the Son of Heaven is to Li Jing, he still knows something important at this time.
As a result, Li Yi refused to agree at first.
However, Tian Lingzi did not completely retreat, as if he had really reached some agreement with Li Jing, and tried his best to fight for Li Jing from the emperor. At the end, there was a Prime Minister Lu Xi, who was also echoed by Tian Lingzi, and fought together. Zheng Jin, Yu Cong, Wang Duo, Simen Sigong and others were all stunned.
When they hadn't come and thoroughly figured out what was going on, because they didn't object, the Empress Emperor agreed to Tian Lingzi's request, and temporarily did not crown Li Jing as the king of the county, but let Li Jing serve as the envoy of the Zhenguo Army, and concurrently serve as the envoy of the Beidatong Army and the envoy of the Lulong Festival of Youzhou.
After the last, Tian Lingzi took the initiative to propose to Li Yi to give Li Jing the official positions of Situ, Zhongshuling, and Tongping Zhangshi.
At this time, Zheng Zheng and Yu Cong, Wang Duo and Ximen Sigong finally understood.
Tian Lingzi and Lu Xi did not reach any agreement with Li Jing, and even Tian Lingzi did not really reconcile with Li Jing, Tian Lingzi played a more ruthless trick to deal with Li Jing. This time, he no longer fought hard against Li Jing, but made a bad move.
He wants to kill Li Jing!
No matter how good Li Jing is, he has worked hard, but he is only twenty-one years old, and he doesn't have much foundation. If Li Jing is just in front of a town marshal, it is not too much. But now, Tian Lingzi took advantage of the emperor's nonsense to bring Li Jing directly to the forefront.
Let Li Jing concurrently serve as the envoy of several sections, which is very insidious. If the emperor really agreed, it would inevitably make the generals of the entire Tang Dynasty jealous, and it would inevitably make the current town commanders resentful. For example, in Youzhou Town, although Li Jing had previously inflicted heavy losses on Lu Longjun, he also took advantage of the internal contradictions of Youzhou Bing. If Li Jing directly became the marshal of Youzhou, the 100,000 Lu Longjun would never agree.
In addition, Song Wei of Ziqing Town, even Li Jing's father-in-law, had previously cut Dengzhou away from Ziqing Town, which had already made Song Wei dissatisfied. If Li Jing wants to replace Song Wei, I am afraid that conflicts will definitely break out between them. If a few more feudal towns were added, it would not be a good thing for Li Jing, but a great disaster.
Although he is currently the most concurrently serving as both the Datong Army and the Lu Long Army, Tian Lingzi's purpose is still answered.
But by this time, it was too late for them to oppose it.
As soon as the will of the reward was announced, Li Jing was shocked and immediately thought of the matter. If Youzhou hears the news, what will be the result? Will Li Keju still be willing to be suppressed by him, and how will the other forces in Youzhou who were originally opposed to Li Keju react now?
Even Li Jing, the envoy of the Datong Army, was unwilling to take over by a thousand and ten thousand, after all, Daibei has now been beaten into ruins, and even people have been robbed, what will he do next? Moreover, Daibei is far away from southern Liaoning, and there is Youzhou in the middle, which is simply an enclave, and it has no value to Li Jing now.
Coupled with the three titles of Situ, Zhongshu Ling, and Tongping Zhangshi, it is obviously just good-sounding, but it suddenly made Li Jing a leader.
This is someone who is in the shade, Li Jing's eyes swept away, and he already saw Tian Lingzi's smiling face becoming more and more bright.
But at this time he had to take it, which was a holy decree after the emperor's mouth, the government hall and the privy council, and the complete procedure of the three provinces. Besides, he already understood that this matter must be Tian Lingzi yin him, and the little emperor was used as a knife. If you refuse now, not only will you not be able to push it off, but it will also hurt the feelings of the little emperor.
Li Jing took the holy decree and returned to his place and sat down. The whole person began to think about countermeasures, and now that he has been overshadowed by Tian Ling, others only see the surface of his scenery, but they don't know what he wants, which is completely opposite to what he wants. He is on the cusp of the storm, and he is worried that the situation in Youzhou, which has finally been calmed down, may change again. What's more important is that in the future, the Zhenguo Army is afraid that it will become the world's and be jealous of everyone.
The later rewards are still continuing, but most of the rewards are with some additional titles to glorify official positions. After all, the main reward has already been rewarded when it was still in Hedong, and this time it is just to add some glory and officials, and then reward some Kabuki and dancing girls and money. Although it also made the generals happy, with Li Jing's amazing reward in front, everything was a little insignificant.
In particular, Sage Mi Haiwan, Anqing Shi Jingcun and Qi Bizhang of the Qi Bi Department, previously saw Tuoba Sigong to be the envoy of the Xia Sui Festival and the history of the Xiazhou Thorn, and Helian Duo was crowned the envoy of the Tiande Army and the history of the Fengzhou Thorn, and they were already envious in their hearts, this time they were all staring at the position of the envoy of the Beidatong Army, and now the three of them fell into vain together, and this position was actually taken away by Li Jing, and the psychology was suddenly indignant.
Li Jing heard that there was also Xin Yan's sealing, but after returning to Beijing after the completion of his term of office in Sizhou, he only got a vacant position as a general of Xiaowei, and he was not awarded a real position. And it is this false position, Li Jing estimates that there is also a big reason because of the incident that saved his life in Gaoling City, which was remembered by the Son of Heaven.
His brow furrowed, and he felt a wave of anger in his heart. This made him even more uncomfortable than being assassinated twice by Tian Lingzi. After all, now that he is rising step by step, others should be proud.
"Fuck it!" Li Jing scolded a few foul words in his heart. (To be continued......)
