Chapter 614 Looking at the Sun
On November 15th, there was a court meeting today, and it was also the first day of the dynasty. The officials almost did not complain of illness.
The emperor has not yet arrived, and the ministers are whispering to each other and discussing.
Wang Yan took a white pen from the side of Jinxian's crown and wrote on the tablet, sometimes frowning in thought, sometimes smiling.
The redundant servant Zheng Shida looked at the officials who went to court with a smile on his face.
After taking office, he replaced all the original halberd-bearing warriors in the palace, and then asked Duke Chen to ask the imperial soldiers who stayed in Luoyang to temporarily serve as halberd-bearing warriors.
Just for this matter, Mr. Chen wrote a letter to him, which made Zheng Shida feel flattered and then ecstatic.
He knew that Mr. Chen favored him not only because of his ability in doing things. In fact, he also gave him women as gifts.
This girl is a singing prostitute trained by his family, her name is Zheng Yingying. She is only thirteen years old this year, but she already has a special color, is very beautiful, and can sing and dance well.
Zheng Shida originally planned to enjoy it for himself, but after much deliberation and for the sake of his future, he decided to offer the girl to Mr. Chen - everyone knew that Mr. Chen was so beautiful.
After sending him away, Zheng Shida regretted a little. It had been so many years since he had seen such a beautiful woman. Perhaps only Wang Jingfeng and Queen Hui Yang could rival her.
However, the position of Servant and Servant was appointed by Duke Chen, and it seems to have worked. I only hope that Zheng Yingtao can charm Duke Chen more in the future and give him more support for Zheng Shida's future - this girl is only thirteen years old, and she is already quite scheming and beautiful.
The ordinary housewife even called her a "witch" and wanted to kill her.
While I was daydreaming, the music started playing.
After changing his imperial robes, the emperor stepped out amid the sound of music and sat behind the dragon table.
All the ministers stood up one after another, saluted and congratulated each other. After the ceremony, they all returned to their seats.
"I have something to report." Emperor Sima Chi looked a little unhappy. According to rumors, he didn't sleep well last night. I don't know why.
Wang Yan raised his head and looked at the emperor.
Sima Chi avoided his gaze with an angry look on his face.
"Congratulations to Your Majesty!" A voice like a drake suddenly sounded.
Wang Yan frowned slightly and took a closer look, but it was Pei Xi, the Huangmen servant.
Sima Chi was disgusted when he saw Pei Kuo, the "follower" who was spying on him, but at the meeting, he could not say anything and could only say unhappily: "Why are you congratulating me?"
"I congratulate your Majesty on winning this man." Pei Kui said: "In the past ten years, the Huns have been wreaking havoc outside and killing lives; inside there have been bandits roaring in the mountains and forests, plundering the people. As a result, jackals and wolves are everywhere, and chickens and dogs are everywhere. The imperial court
It is difficult to quell the chaos by repeatedly wasting tricks."
"Now there is Shao Taibai of the East China Sea, who recruits exiles in Henan, reclaims wasteland, builds farm tools, and buys cattle to feed the hungry and clothe the cold. The people no longer run on the roads, and the people no longer hide in the valleys.
, it is like father and son are reunited, living and working in peace and contentment. I would like to congratulate Your Majesty, Your Majesty has won this man!"
"Wang Jun of Youzhou was a great benefactor to the country of Hezhou. He was in a noble position, but he did not think about repaying the favor. He had an unfaithful mind. He hid things that were beyond the control and conspired to usurp them. He coerced the wolf men and invaded neighboring states. He gave money to Li Yuanzhi.
Wealth, clothes and skin. Such unfaithful, unjust and unkind people should be punished by heaven. Chen Gong summoned the righteous men of Hebei to capture this animal to relieve the suffering of the people and consolidate the power of the emperor's revival. I congratulate your majesty on your victory.
That’s it!”
"The counties in Jizhou have been trapped by thieves for a long time. Thorns grew in the fields and ridges, and corpses are scattered all over Qiu Ruins. General Fang Bo talked empty words instead of military training. For a long time, he forgot to fight. He was defeated by the wind and abandoned the city. Chen
The public lectures on martial arts training, tempers weapons and spears, and then mentions
The journey of tigers and wolves defended the bandits; they suddenly annihilated the fierce and stubborn people and successfully broke the formation. The officers and soldiers of Yanzhao can now be relieved of their armor and work on farming; Liyuan, Hebei can now live in peace and cultivate mulberry trees. This is an extraordinary achievement, rarely seen in the world. Minister
Congratulations to Your Majesty, Your Majesty has won someone!"
After Pei Xi finished speaking, he glanced at the emperor, bowed and left.
The emperor remained silent, as if making a silent confrontation.
The ministers waited patiently.
After a long time, the emperor could not withstand the pressure and said in a hoarse voice: "Pei Qing just said that Wang Jun was unfaithful and unkind. In comparison, Shao Xun respects the emperor, which can be said to be loyal; and he who takes care of the widow of his old master can be said to be loyal.
Righteousness; caring for the common people can be called benevolence. I have found this person, what else can I ask for? How can I not give him a reward that is beyond promotion?"
The hall was so quiet for a moment that you could hear a pin drop.
The resentment and ridicule in these words may be overwhelming.
Pei Xi, who had just returned to his seat, showed a hint of impatience.
Chicken feet, I am your size! If you continue to be so sinister and weird, I really don’t know how to die.
But it was not easy for him to refute, especially since he had just heard that Donghai Princess Pei was seven months pregnant and would give birth soon...
He didn't know what to say about Shao Quanzhong. With such a status, what kind of woman couldn't be obtained?
The rich and aristocratic families are all rushing to send their unmarried girls to your bed. Why do you want your mistress to be pregnant?
Wang Yan picked up the white pen and wrote on the wat board again, thinking about the sentences.
At this time, Shangshu ordered Yu Min to cough lightly, stand up and say: "Your Majesty, special honors should be rewarded. If it were not for Shao Xun to defeat the enemy with all his strength, and the soldiers fighting for their lives, there would be no prosperity today. Please take Shao Xun's place."
"
Sima Chi seemed to have broken a jar and said angrily: "You and others are all talents of the king's assistants. They have their own plans. I will make it right."
Yu Min didn't seem to hear the emperor's complaint, and said to himself: "Shao Xun can not only promote culture and education, but also perform martial arts. Such a genius should take on important responsibilities and help the country's affairs."
Sima Chi opened his eyes wide and asked, "What does Yu Qing mean..."
"You can order Chen Gong to record the affairs of the minister." Yu Min saw the situation and gave up his purpose.
"What is the position for recording ministerial affairs?" Sima Chi asked.
Jin inherited the Wei system.
Since the Wei Dynasty, Chen Qun has recorded ministerial affairs as Sikong, Sima Yi has recorded ministerial affairs as Taiwei, Cao Shuang has recorded ministerial affairs as general, Sima Shi has recorded ministerial affairs as general, and Sima Zhao has recorded ministerial affairs as general.
In terms of writing matters, Wang Shen recorded matters as a hussar general, Jia Chong recorded matters as a Taiwei, Sima Liang recorded matters as a Taizai (grand master), Sima Yue recorded matters as a Taifu, Wang Yan recorded matters as a Taiwei...
As for Sima Lun, Sima Ji, Sima Ying and others who created the country, the auxiliary ministers plus Jiuxi, the prime minister, etc., have far exceeded the power of recording ministerial affairs, and there is no need to add this title.
In short, you must have an official position at the level of three ministers to be suitable for adding the title of Shangshushi and become the master of the Shangshu desk - as for whether you can get the Shangshu order, the Shangshu can serve everywhere, and actually control the power, that is
Another story.
As for cavalry generals, it is not uncommon since the Han Dynasty for cavalry generals to record ministerial affairs, but it is really rare. At least they must be great generals to legitimately record ministerial affairs and become the de facto prime minister, right?
"Your Majesty, I think I can appoint Chen Gong as the general and record the affairs of the minister." Yu Min bowed his head and said.
Sima Chi felt a little dizzy.
He wanted to refuse, but it seemed he could do nothing. There were no loyal ministers in the court. Even if there were, they did not dare to openly express their position.
Last time he snatched Zhu Yuxi away from him, Wang Yan, Yu Min and others didn't care and looked at him like a clown.
Thinking of this, he wanted to cry again.
I don't want Shao Xun to be proud, I want him to die, but it seems that this is something difficult to do.
"Your Majesty!" Situ Liu Tun came out and said: "I invite Mr. Chen to be the general and record the affairs of the minister."
Hearing this voice, Sima Chi woke up from his self-pity and said with a blank look: "It was played by you."
When the courtiers saw this, they all signaled with their eyes.
We have finally reached this point, getting closer step by step.
"Your Majesty." After Liu Tun retreated, Wang Yan stood up and said, "I heard that in ancient times, there were plans to seal the territory, and to use shares and arms as a way to pay tribute to relatives and friends. This is still the same as in ancient times. Mr. Chen's merits are immortal, but he is not a noble person.
It's a pity that I showed up on stage. I would like to ask you to
The ten counties of Chen, Liang, Xincai, Nandun, Runan, Chenliu, Puyang, Ji, Wei, and Dunqiu belong to the Liang Kingdom, and the Duke of Jinchen County is the Duke of Liang, and they all serve as Junyi. In this way, Shao Taibai led the vassal, both civil and military
With this talent, I will definitely be able to praise Your Majesty and achieve great success."
Sima Chi swallowed his saliva and said feebly: "How can the title of a prince be given to someone with a different surname?"
"There are many things going on in the world, and wars and revolutions are still going on. How can we be constrained by bad rules?" Wang Yan said matter-of-factly.
"Your Majesty." Zheng Yu, the Supervisor of the Zhongshu, stood up and said: "Having special titles with different surnames shows the greatness of the emperor's kindness. When Mr. Chen is crowned with three thrones, he will be able to serve the country with all his heart and never forget the emperor."
"Your Majesty, Chen Gong has quelled the evil caves and purified the Central Plains. With this great country, he will definitely be able to help the country." Tingwei Zhuge Quan stood up and said.
"Your Majesty, Mr. Chen, a veteran of the two dynasties, loyal to the country, will be able to ensure our revival." Cui Gong, the great Sinong, stood up and said.
"Your Majesty, Mr. Chen's ten years of achievements have been highly praised by hundreds of millions of people. The state is prosperous. As a favored minister, I invite Mr. Chen to be the Duke of Liang." Wei Wei Yang Jiazhi said.
"His Majesty……"
The courtiers respectfully invited me one after another, and there was an endless stream.
Sima Chi looked left and right. Many people did not come out of the queue, but they also avoided his eyes.
He finally couldn't hold it any longer and was sad, and said in a crying tone: "Okay! Okay! Okay! You and I are all my dear ministers. I have nothing to say, it's done! It's all done! It's all done!"
"
"Your Majesty is wise." All the ministers congratulated in unison.
"Nothing to do, let's dismiss the court!" Sima Chi turned away angrily without waiting for the courtiers to send him off, or even for the background music.
(Please give me a monthly ticket at the beginning of the month, thank you.)
