Chapter 470: Added the word "founding the country" again!

"Auntie, can I go to the hall to offer treasures with the general?"

"Idiot, don't even think about it, there is only one person who can wear a sword at the court meeting, except for the imperial guards from the North and South Yamen, and that is His Majesty the Supreme.

Wearing a sword to see His Majesty is an act of death, so don't even think about it, you can wear it anywhere, except when you go to the palace.

Even if His Majesty knows that you just want to show off, but you will leave it to others, others don’t think so, others will say that you are trying to conspire against others, especially those officials who are officials at Yushitai, they will definitely read your book Yes, it's not right for the Supreme to protect you when the time comes, and it's wrong not to protect you. How troublesome is it? "

"Oh, I'm just asking casually, but I don't dare to think about bringing a sword to see His Majesty. By the way, Auntie, what else should I pay attention to when I go to the court meeting? Please teach me earlier so that I don't make any mistakes again. The Supreme reprimanded me for being ignorant."

"The etiquette to pay attention to is nothing more than the usual ones, you know it but you can't, just be respectful like you usually see the Supreme.

But say what you should say, and don't say a word that shouldn't be said, lest you say something wrong, say less and make less mistakes, it's good if you don't say anything.

After you have finished talking about the supreme rewards you should talk about, please retreat quickly, don't stay in the court meeting for too long, you will abolish the children of those aristocratic families earlier, except for the few wise old people in the Fanyang Lu family, no one cares about you what,
The other families have always held grudges. I heard your uncle tell me a few times that several families were thinking of finding trouble with you, but they had no chance to do so.

If there is something wrong with you at the court meeting today, or if you are disrespectful to the Supreme, how can those people let go of this opportunity to use bad medicine?

That's why Auntie told you to leave after finishing speaking, don't stay longer, the court meeting was very chaotic, all forces were present, and all civil and military officials were afraid of everything,
That is, your two uncles dealt with it carefully, for fear of falling into some trap, and you, a young child who has never experienced anything, how can you know the danger inside? "

"Don't worry, Auntie, the child has remembered it, and will never say anything more."

"Well, that's good. Don't worry, Auntie. It's getting late, so go quickly, lest your Majesty wait too long."

"It's Auntie, then I'll go."

"Go, go, I got up too early today because of you and I'm sleepy, and I have to go back and catch up on sleep to get back to normal."

Mrs. Qin left Li Yu's yard with a group of maidservants while she was speaking. With Li Yi's support, Li Yu got into the carriage and sat down. Today he is going to court to present treasures to His Majesty the Emperor, so he can't just lie down and mess around. hair.

What treasure to offer?Of course, it was a process to dedicate Qu Yuanli to His Majesty the Emperor. After the busy few days ago, those big and small sects who bought the right to sell Wuliangye all took the money that should be handed over to the Ministry of Households to settle the liquidation.

Every household took back a contract document specially made by the imperial court, which was signed and marked by the Supreme Being himself.

I heard that His Majesty the Emperor stayed in the Cangbu Division for three consecutive days, and watched every household pay money in it. After the whole court got the money, it immediately started to run quickly, and it only took two days to repair all parts of the world. The righteous granary, and the money to buy grain storage, have been distributed.

His Majesty the Emperor once again issued an order that after two months, wherever the Yicang is not well built, no matter whether it is a county magistrate or a state official, they will be dismissed and investigated.

And before the autumn harvest, all righteous warehouses must store a sufficient share of grain in case of emergencies.

Li Shimin, who had solved the serious problem, was very relaxed, never felt so relaxed. His Majesty the Emperor, who was in a good mood, often had floods in the south, and more than 30 counties in the south needed to reinforce the embankments.
Each county allocated [-] guan of silver and silk, and the problem that had plagued Li Shimin for a long time was finally solved. Li Shimin, who stopped his hands, also remembered the hero Li Yu, so he decided to mention the matter of dedicating to the emperor Quyuanli. Above the charter, this is why Li Yu got up before dawn today.

When Li Yu went out, sixteen strong slaves from Longxi followed the chariots and horses, creaked all the way to the gate of the imperial city, and took the waist card to enter the palace gate. There had been a waiter who had been waiting for a long time to lead Li Yu to the court hall Wait outside the door.

Li Yu heard the servant's voice resounding inside,
"Reporting to His Majesty the Emperor, from time to time, Li Yu, Bo Liyu of the Founding County of Lantian County, is waiting to see you."

"Announce him in."

"promise."

"I have an audience with Li Yu, Bo Li Yu, Founding County County, Xuanlantian County."

Li Yu knew that it was time for him to appear on the stage, so he carried the iron plow into the hall with great effort, until the servant who followed him asked Li Yu to stop, Li Yu put the iron plow under his feet, tidied up his clothes and formally paid respects.

"Your Majesty, Li Yu, pays homage to His Majesty the Emperor. May your Majesty be safe and blessed."

"Get up without courtesy."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Li Yugang stood up straight and Li Shimin's voice came from above again;

"What item are you taking, and tell me in detail."

"According to the order!"

Everything was negotiated, Li Yu was just here for a formality, and when the emperor asked Li Yu, he said unhurriedly;
"Reporting to Your Majesty, this is a sharp farming tool that I accidentally discovered in Secretary Lu Ban and tried to make it. I named it Quyuanli to replace the straight-yuanli used before."

Both the civil and military men of the Manchu Dynasty had seen Qu Yuanli, but today was different, it was officially recorded in the annals of history, and the person in charge of recording, Sheren, was recording everyone's words and deeds from the side of the hall.

Li Shimin continued to ask questions without haste;

"Have you ever tried this sharp farming tool? How effective is it? Is it comparable to the straight shaft plow handed down by your ancestors?"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, I have tried it on my own land for more than ten days, and the effect is more than ten times faster than that of the previous Zhiyuan plow, which can be called a sharp tool for farming.

If it is popularized in the world, the people will no longer be afraid of starvation, each family can grow a lot of land every year, and the harvest of the fields can be greatly improved.
In less than ten years, there will be no shortage of grain in our Tang Dynasty, every household will be full of grain, and the price of grain will drop tenfold. If Your Majesty popularizes this farming tool, prosperity can be expected. "

"Oh? Are there any witnesses?"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, it has been confirmed by General Qin of the Jinwu Guard."

Li Shimin looked into the camp of generals;
"Qin Aiqing, is this really the case?"

Qin Qiong heard the emperor's question and immediately went out to play;

"Reporting to Your Majesty, the minister first sent someone to Lantian to testify, and the person he sent reported back that everything was true.
The minister was still not at ease, so he took it to prove it himself. After plowing for half a day, the plowed field was [-] mu, and the effect was three points more powerful than what the Lantian county uncle said. Please learn from your majesty. "

"Great goodness! With the birth of this farming tool, I will no longer be afraid of the lack of food for the people in the future. The Ministry of Industry will follow this example and build more.
Promote it to the world as soon as possible, so that the people can benefit as soon as possible. This matter must be carried out quickly without delay. After the autumn harvest, I want this farming tool to spread to the people all over the world, so that every household has it. "

The Minister of the Ministry of Industry heard this and stepped out of the team;

"Observe the order! Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will devote myself to promoting this sharp weapon, and fulfill Your Majesty's mission during the autumn harvest, so that the people of the world will benefit endlessly."

"good."

Waiting for the words of the monarch and ministers to fall to the ground, Cheng Yaojin immediately stood up, and his sonorous voice resounded through the hall;

"Report to Your Majesty, my court has always been very clear about rewards and punishments. Li Yu, the uncle of Lantian County, has made meritorious service in presenting this sharp farming weapon, which is called a treasure. It is difficult to convince the world without rewards for such merit. I implore your majesty to reward the uncle of Lantian County. Please be kind to me." Allow this."

As soon as Cheng Yaojin finished speaking, Qin Qiong also played along before pushing back;

"My minister agrees."

Then a large group of old ministers from Qin Palace stood up and asked the emperor to reward Li Yu, Li Shimin nodded;

"allow!"

Li Shimin finally had the opportunity to speak out about the title he had been thinking about for more than ten days;

"Bo Li Yu of Lantian County presented agricultural tools to the imperial court. This matter has contributed to the community and benefited the common people. He has also made great contributions to his title. He will be granted the title of Marquis of the Founding County of Lantian County. From the third rank, a thousand households will be sealed, and the household department will handle it as soon as possible. It is a matter of food for thousands of households."

Many officials in the civil servants had such expressions, especially those who had a grudge against Li Yu, the flesh on their faces was twitching and shaking.

Sure enough, the situation was the same as before, His Majesty the Emperor really took good care of this adoptive son, and every time he gave a reward, he carried the word "Jianguo",
There are only three or two such iron hat titles in the entire court, and this young child is among them, which makes people extremely envious and jealous.

In the past, his appointment as the county uncle of Jianguo was enough to surprise people, but he did not expect that today this majestic county marquis would be able to give Jianguo a title.

Although there is a one-letter difference between the county lord and the county uncle, there is a big difference. The county uncle is a fourth-rank. Even if he is a founding county uncle, many people can still accept it.

This county marquis is not the same, it is very different, officially entering the meritorious service of the third rank, after he grows up, he can directly become an official, and after he becomes a man, His Majesty will give him a fifth rank official, It's all a matter of course.

The sons of these three ranks of founding meritorious service will be eligible for two people to become officials in the future. If Li Yu is promoted to another level in the future, what if he continues to add another founding father?
That is the iron hat meritorious service of the second rank, that... I can't imagine, the title of the third rank and above, with the word "founding the country" and without it, but the difference between cloud and mud...

As soon as Li Yu heard it, he really gave it to a county lord. Although he had already been mentally prepared, Li Yu, who had made a lot of contributions, was a little uncomfortable after all, and his tone of speech was inevitably dissatisfied.

"Thank you Your Majesty for rewarding Ron."

"Exemption."

"Report to Your Majesty, Your Majesty and the important ministers still need to discuss state affairs, and the ministers dare not disturb you, so please resign, please allow your Majesty."

Li Shimin couldn't hear Li Yu's dissatisfied tone, but recently he was in a good mood and he didn't bother to argue with a child, so he didn't take it seriously, and said calmly;

"allow."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, I'm taking my leave."

Li Yu didn't stay too long, the atmosphere at the court meeting was too serious, he couldn't stand this kind of seriousness, and left the hall after saluting with the emperor.

Watching Li Yu come out from the main hall, Yingxiang, the three daughters of Xichun Tanchun, who were waiting outside, welcomed Li Yu down the steps, Yingxiang saw that Li Yu was unhappy and did not dare to speak, and said carefully;
"Report to Sir, just now Her Royal Highness the Empress sent someone to communicate, saying that after you came out, Sir, I asked you to go to Your Highness's place."

"Yes, I see, let's go."

Li Yu, who was just about to turn around and leave, agreed after hearing this, then turned around and led the three daughters towards the Queen's bedroom.

Seeing the Patriarch's expression was unkind, the three personal maids didn't want to talk too much, they followed Li Yu to the door of the Queen's bedroom, and were directly ushered in by the maid waiting at the door.

"Meet the Empress."

"Slaves pay homage to Her Majesty the Queen."

"Get up."

"Come here my son, sit here with the empress, and tell me if you have lost your manners in the hall?"

Li Yu pouted and sat in the small chair that we had prepared beside Empress Changsun.

"Huh? What's the matter with you bastard, you can tie a donkey with your little mouth."

"Your Majesty has just been promoted to the title of son."

"Isn't that a good thing? You've been clamoring all day to be some kind of prince. This has raised your title. What else is there to be dissatisfied with?"

"Oh no, my lord, His Majesty just promoted me to a level and made me a broken county marquis. What kind of promotion is this? This is only a first level, my lord. Promoted to a Duke, the result is a broken Marquis, alas..."

Empress Changsun, we already know that Li Yu can only be promoted to a county marquis this time. Speaking of which, even Empress Changsun herself feels that Her Majesty is too stingy this time.
To say that the credit is really not small, at least give it to a county magistrate from the second rank, besides, he is not an outsider, but what the emperor thinks is to take it slowly,
You can't promote him too fast, otherwise, if a child is promoted too high, I'm afraid the ministers won't like it, so Empress Changsun didn't say anything, but these words can't be said to Li Yu, otherwise he won't jump up?

Listening to what Li Yu said about the Duke, the Empress Changsun was stunned and rebuked;

"Oh my god, you rascal, you really dare to think about it, and you still want to be a first-rank Duke? You carefully count the generals who followed His Majesty through life and death, how many of them are first-rank Dukes?

The military achievements of those great generals are obtained by earning their lives in a down-to-earth manner, and they also have abilities and injuries. Even so, His Majesty has not rewarded a few. You, a young child, want to be a duke ? "

"My lady came to ask you, how many times have you been in battle?"

Li Yu replied stubbornly;

"How can my son be on the battlefield before he becomes a man?"

Empress Changsun ignored Li Yu's disbelief, and asked another question;
"Then have you ever brought soldiers and horsemen, or escorted grain, grass and millet?"

Li Yu answered dejectedly;
"If you go back to your mother, there is no son!"

"Then have you ever broken through a bandit formation, or killed three or five bandits?"

Li Yu was ashamed of being questioned, and responded unconvinced;

"Your Majesty, didn't you deliberately raise the bar, how can my son have these military achievements, none of them have."
