A fast horse set off from Linjiang City and headed straight for Kyoto at a speed of 800 miles.
This time, Jiang Provincial Governor Zhang Yuanzheng was about to win the title of Marquis for Su Cheng, which was his promise to Su Cheng!
Once this matter is done, there will be countless benefits for Zhang Yuanzheng in the future.
First of all, he can get Su Cheng's favor, after all, this matter was facilitated by him.
Furthermore, the people above can notice Su Cheng. If Su Cheng can go to Kyoto, Zhang Yuanzheng will have a great chance of becoming an official in Beijing in the future.
Although he is a governor in Jiang Province, he is a long-standing person, but he is always a remote place. It is nowhere to be a magistrate in Kyoto in this life.
If he can take advantage of Su Cheng's momentum, his position in the future will not be just a second-rank governor.
In order to achieve this goal, Zhang Yuanzheng also notified some people in Kyoto to spread the three poems by Su Cheng. Only in this way can Su Cheng's influence be further expanded.
In a word, he did everything Zhang Yuanzheng could do, and the rest was only to see how the people above should deal with this matter.
And during this period, Su Cheng returned to Liuhe City and began to provide advice on the development of other counties.
If you help one Meihua County, you can't abandon other counties. As the prefect, he can't favor one or the other.
Moreover, the rice has been harvested now. After ordering all the quantities, Su Cheng will also send someone to escort the grain that should be handed over to the court to Linjiang City.
During this period, Su Cheng was busy, and the entire Liuzhou was also booming under his control. The county magistrates of the other nine counties had witnessed the development of Meihua County and invited Su Cheng to come and stand.
Fortunately, the development of these counties is different from that of Meihua County. Su Cheng only gave some suggestions to those county magistrates, but he did not go there in person, but he also sent people to pay attention to the development of these counties at any time.
Time passed by like this, until ten days later, the messenger arrived in Daliang Kyoto. On this day, an amazing news came from Kyoto!
"Have you heard that there was a marquis in Jiang Province, who was amazing and amazing!"
"Hehe, isn't that? I've read all those three poems. It's really good. I don't know what the court thought, why did such a marquis be in Jiang Province."
"That's not. In recent years, we have been focusing on culture and over military affairs. Now this marquis is very literary, and the court does not want to recall him."
"I'm going to tell you, I heard that the governor of Jiang Province had already reported it, saying that he wanted to give the marquis a title, but in the end he was stuck in the clan's mansion."
"What, report to the clan mansion? Is that marquis still a royal relative?"
"That's right, I heard that he is still the same clan and origin as His Majesty. According to his seniority, His Majesty is still the brother of this marquis."
For a time, many news came out of Kyoto, some real and some fake, but there was no doubt that the name Su Cheng was well known in Kyoto.
This is a real royal relative, but although there is a title but no title, his literary talent is so outstanding that it has caused the people to discuss it.
With such a big incident, the court naturally received news. The old scholars in the Hanlin Academy would naturally not miss this opportunity. When they went to court, they studied the sect's mansion hard in the court.
Even in order to let the emperor see Su Cheng's power, an old Hanlin even took Su Cheng's three poems to the court to recite in public.
Even the emperor on the dragon throne was shocked after hearing this and finally ordered:
"Let the clan mansion draw a title for Su Cheng and grant Mrs. Su Cheng the fourth-ranked Lady of the Imperial Palace!"
The order was passed to the Zongren Mansion, and King Zhao, who was in charge of the Zongren Mansion, was so angry that he immediately summoned everyone in the Zongren Mansion to discuss matters.
The so-called clan mansion is an institution that manages royal affairs. Its main responsibility is to record the royal children's legitimate and illegitimate names, titles, life and death time, marriage, posthumous title, burial, etc.
Now Su Cheng has appeared and the matter has been exposed to the emperor, which makes Su Xingchang very dissatisfied.
The huge sect mansion is majestic. There are two huge stone beasts guarding the door, and two teams of soldiers holding spears next to them. This kind of temperament makes people dare not look directly at it.
At this moment, in the lobby of the clan mansion, Su Xingchang, with white hair on his head, was sitting in the main seat, with a pair of hawk eyes staring coldly at the people in the lobby, and a cold light flashed from time to time.
The python robe on his body made him powerful without anger. A hint of anger appeared on his gloomy face, and his tight hands seemed to suppress the anger in his heart.
After a while, King Zhao Su Xingchang snorted coldly: "You guys say what to do now? Your Majesty has personally issued an order. If I don't do as I do, it's a resistance!"
Su Xingchang was very annoyed at this moment. He didn't expect that a little marquis from a remote area could actually make the emperor's ears.
But this matter is well known to everyone in the capital, and he can't hide it even if he wants to.
There was even news that it was said that the title of Su Cheng's marquis who had been stuck in the sect's mansion was not given!
This time he even poked the hornet's nest. Now the literati in Kyoto City cursed the clan's mansion so much that he was caught by several old scholars from the Hanlin Academy when he was in court.
As Zong Ling, who is in charge of Zong Zheng’s Mansion, Su Xingchang naturally did not want to make a big deal.
But this incident was brought about by Su Cheng. Su Xingchang felt very uncomfortable when he thought of Su Cheng's title that would cause trouble for him.
But now the emperor spoke, even if Su Xingchang felt uncomfortable, he would not dare not give Su Cheng the title.
While still at this time, an old man in the left hand behind suddenly stood up and snorted coldly: "This Su Cheng has offended our clan's mansion to death. This time, I will not let him be satisfied with the title."
This person is not someone else, but Su Shancheng, the King of Lu, and Zuo Zongzheng of the Zongren Mansion.
The clan mansion thought that the clan ruler and the two sects were both the royal family members.
This time the matter was so big that the clan mansion was in trouble and Su Cheng had to be awarded a title, but these big men in the clan mansion were very unhappy.
"Two princes, why do you have to do this?"
The King of Wei, Su Qingquan, on the left, frowned and said in confusion: "This matter is wrong with my clan's mansion. It is Your Majesty's order to grant Su Cheng a title at this moment. What's wrong with us?"
Compared with King Zhao and King Lu, King Wei seems much more generous, thinking that this is because the clan mansion is not doing it right, and it is not too late to make up for the siege.
However, when Zhao Wang Su Xingchang, who was in the main position, narrowed his eyes and a cold look flashed.
The King of Wei is so upright. Last time, he didn't give Su Cheng the title, this person objected. If he hadn't been concerned about this person, he would have been the prince, Su Xingchang would have dealt with this person long ago.
"Hmph, I will give you a title, but I will not let him be satisfied!"
Su Xingchang's eyes turned cold and a sarcastic look flashed across the corner of his mouth.
