Emperor Taizong's Growth Plan

Chapter 458 Canonization of the County King, Four-Star Treasure [Cangtian Pen] [Yuhuang Jade Slip]

"Dong dong dong", the heavy and majestic sound of the imperial bell rang, and suddenly a group of birds flew away.

The majestic atmosphere, dignified and elegant rites and music were played slowly in the palace.Chime bells and drums were sung and drank accordingly. The music was majestic and majestic, showing the majesty and majesty of a great country.

The ceremonial official of the imperial court's Ministry of Rites stood upright on the jade steps, dragged his voice, and shouted loudly:
"Hundred officials, kneel down to welcome the imperial decree!"

Today's battle is even bigger than the previous Great Court Meeting.On the square in front of the Xuanzheng Hall, all the officials of the court, Chinese, military, and nobles, no matter whether they are in power or not, are all gathered at this time. Usually, it is only possible to have such a posture when offering sacrifices to heaven and paying New Year's greetings to His Majesty.

A group of hundreds of officials all bent down and knelt down on the ground, shouting:
"Your servant, please listen to the hadith!"

The great eunuch Feng Bao, who was holding the imperial decree, stepped forward slowly, raised his voice, and read aloud:

"Following the heavens to respond to the times, and receiving this name, His Majesty Dayun ordered:
My heir has orders, and I have spoken to Fei De, to compile a great plan, and to worship Yanmo every day.The three spirits take care of their hearts, and all generations accept them.The responsibility of heaven and earth is great.Overcome the load.The rest of the ancestors has no boundaries.Inheritance is important.

The eldest son of the emperor, Xiao Chengze, who lives in the Nanrong family of Zhaoyi, is now the king of Yongchang County.The second son of the emperor, Xiao Cheng'en, was born of the imperial concubine Yu's family. He was granted the title of Jiangyang County King, and was awarded a book seal, guard of honor, and the county king's guard.Nian Erwang was young and still lived in the palace. After he became an adult, he went out of the palace again to open a mansion and build teeth.

The edict is hereby made clear to the world, hereby! "

In the Xuanzheng Hall, Xiao Cheng smiled and waved his hands slightly, then eunuchs and officials from the Ministry of Rituals stepped forward quickly, holding the county king's gold seal and books in their hands.

The two little princes opened their big round eyes with ignorance and innocence. They were hugged by the palace servants and knelt to receive the order.

As Dayun's only two princes, His Royal Highnesses have only just turned one year old, and they have been given the title of County King.

Even though he was still at an age where he could not remember anything, Yiying's subordinate officials and the brigade of county royal guards had all been prepared by his own father, which could be said to be a typical representative of being born in Rome.

And the titles of these two are quite meaningful.

The eldest son of the emperor was born of Nan Rongshu, and he was of the blood of the Ailao clan.And this Yongchang County was the former capital of Ailao King.Taking this as the king's title shows Xiao Cheng's intention to appease the Ailao clan.

Bian Liuyun gave birth to the second son Xiao Cheng'en in the identity of Xia Guorou Ning's concubine.And taking Jiangyang County, the hometown of Xia Kingdom, as the fief has a bit of meaning...

At this time, outside the Xuanzheng Hall, there was a voice from Baiguan Mountain:

"Congratulations to Dayun, congratulations to His Majesty! His Royal Highness is a thousand years old!"

In fact, the canonization of the prince as the county king is not the same as the canonization of the prince. In fact, such grand celebrations and etiquette are not needed.

It's just that today is not so much the canonization of the prince as it is a banquet held after the parade of officials returned to Beijing.

Firstly, it was to celebrate the great victory of Jiangzhou County, and to reward and comfort all the officials.Secondly, it was also to give a secret warning to the principals of the Baijia School of Jixia Academy who were invited to the banquet together this time.

The hundreds of people who were invited to watch the ceremony, in the Xuanzheng Hall at this time, all of them looked strange, and from time to time they looked at the Confucian sect master and the head of Qufu Academy, Meng Honglang.

You know, the contemporary Confucian Siye, Shi Mingzhe, who was just questioned, was planning to take action against these two princes, taking the opportunity to cause turmoil in the government of Yunguo.

Today, the canonization ceremony of the county king and the special invitation of Confucianists seem to be a bit ironic...

After all, he is the head of Confucianism, the leader of all schools of thought in the world.At this time, Meng Honglang's expression was calm and calm, without showing any abnormality.He even turned a blind eye to the strange gazes of the people around him.

After the imperial decree was read out, Meng Honglang actually walked out of the queue under the astonished eyes of everyone, bowed to Xiao Cheng who was on the dragon chair, and said:

"Your Majesty Yunhuang, today is the day when the two princes canonize you as county kings. My family also has congratulatory gifts to offer!"

All the members of the Hundred Families were stunned for a moment, as if they didn't react.

It can be seen from the expressions of everyone that Meng Honglang said that he was presenting congratulatory gifts on behalf of the people of the hundred families, but in fact it was the Confucianism who took the initiative to bleed, and he was also expressing his apology for involving the people of the hundred families this time.

Xiao Cheng on the dragon chair looked at Meng Honglang who suddenly stood up, frowned slightly, and smiled hypocritically:
"And congratulatory gifts? Hehe, isn't it, it's too expensive."

Meng Honglang bowed again and said:
"Your Majesty Yunhuang, where did you say that!"

While speaking, the Confucian disciples accompanying Meng Honglang quickly took out two brocade boxes, handed them to the eunuch at the side, and presented them to Xiao Cheng.

Yuhuatian next to Xiao Cheng was about to take over for inspection, but was interrupted by Xiao Cheng waving his hand.

Let's not talk about what else in the world today deserves Xiao Cheng's vigilance and dread.Let's just say that this place is Dayun Zhongqing City, the Imperial Palace Xuanzheng Hall, which is the symbol of Dayun's supreme power!

If this Confucian patriarch really had the guts to do something here, he would have an undying enmity with Yun Guo.Presumably Meng Honglang is not so stupid!
Soon, the two brocade boxes were opened and placed in front of Xiao Cheng.

In the brocade box, there is a jade pen and a scroll of jade letters placed in it.It is full of radiance and color, overflowing with precious light, which is very miraculous!
And in the line of sight that only Xiao Cheng could see, a few lines of small characters emerged.

[Four-Star Treasure, Heaven Pen

Introduction: The treasure of Confucianism, self-written without ink, sharp, tactful and smooth.

Wearing effect: after wearing, wisdom +15]

[Four-Star Treasure, Emperor Yu's Jade Slip
Introduction: According to legend, the ancient emperors prayed to the heavens and used them to communicate with the heavens and the earth.

Wearing effect: After wearing it, morality +10, wisdom +10. 】

Seeing this, Xiao Cheng couldn't help looking at Meng Honglang again, amazed at this man's generosity and determination.

Don't think that four-star treasures are so cheap!

Now the kingdom of Yun dominates the world, but Xiao Chenggui is the emperor of the kingdom of Dayun, after removing the six four-star swords obtained from the purple ceka [Six Swords of the King of Wu], the remaining four-star treasures in his hands are only six pieces!
Among the six four-star treasures, three were obtained from Buddhism.

They are four-star treasures [Vajra Zen Staff] that have no other use except that they are strong and indestructible.

The highest level of martial arts in Buddhism, the scriptures of [The Great Buddha Tops the Shurangama Mantra], can instantly improve martial arts depending on the user's Buddhist cultivation base, up to the ninth level of cultivation base.

And after wearing it, it can increase the probability of obtaining treasures [Duobao Shili Buddha Bead].

The only thing that is useful to Xiao Cheng is the string of 【Duobao Shili Buddha Beads】!

During this parade, Xiao Cheng obtained dozens of second- and third-star treasures.There are three four-star treasures, and one five-star treasure.

In addition to the plot of the fairy fate in Dongting Lake and Yan Song's exhaustion of searching for treasures to please Xiao Cheng, there is also a part of the reason that Xiao Cheng wears this treasure with him.

The remaining three four-star treasures in Xiao Cheng's hands are the [Clear Water Jiaozhu] obtained from the fairy fate of Dongting Lake; , a Confucian treasure that can hide one's own cultivation, [Tibetan Jade].

Compared with these six four-star treasures that either have their own auxiliary skills, cannot be used directly, or are useless, the two pieces that Meng Honglang sent up this time are four-star treasures that can directly increase attribute values. Treasure, it becomes more straightforward and effective.

Give two treasures to a courtier casually, and the combination will increase the wisdom attribute by 25 points, which is enough to make a person suddenly become, and the wisdom is comparable to those famous civil and military officials with a long history.

Of course, Kong has a high enough intelligence, but does not have the corresponding force, talent and learning, as well as the attributes of domination and politics. .

At this time, Meng Honglang, the Confucian patriarch in the palace, decisively abandoned his No. [-] person after entering Zhongqing City. The contemporary Confucian master Mingzhe, and even the core disciples of Confucianism involved in this matter were not there. So much effort on them.

Instead, he confessed directly and contributed the Confucian classics that he never taught other than the core disciples, only in exchange for Xiao Cheng's release of all the people who had nothing to do with this matter, and while restoring the reputation of Confucianism, he also retained Confucianism in the cloud. The final foundation of the country will not be expelled from the cloud country court.

Judging the situation, be decisive, without hesitation, and never have unrealistic illusions.Only this decisive sense of humor, as well as a clear understanding of the situation and his own status, is enough for Xiao Chenggao to take a look!

Xiao Cheng casually closed the two brocade boxes in front of him, looked at Meng Honglang, nodded and said:

"The owner of the mountain is so polite, but I am a little embarrassed...Come here, put away the things, and give them to the kings of Yongchang and Jiangyang after they have read and enlightened!"

At this time, Xiao Cheng felt inexplicably feeling like during the Chinese New Year, the parents said they would collect the lucky money for you, and when they grow up, they will give you the same look...

Looking at the hundreds of people in the palace, Xiao Cheng chuckled again, and said loudly:
"I have had many misunderstandings with all of you during the chaos in Zhongqing City. Today's invitation to a banquet can be regarded as a solution to the past. From now on, we should put aside the past. I look forward to meeting you again!"

Everyone from the hundred families heard the profound meaning in Xiao Cheng's words, and their complexions were not very good-looking.

Xiao Cheng's so-called longing for a reunion is actually secretly telling them to get out!

Although the Hundred Families were only involved in the chaos in Zhongqing City this time, they, the people who were in charge of the Hundred Families in the Yun Kingdom, chose to stand by and watch when the Zhongqing City was in turmoil.

Even though Xiao Cheng couldn't eradicate the power of the Hundred Families all at once, in order to frighten the people of the Hundred Families, he couldn't just let it go lightly.

Except for the several schools headed by the Yin Yang family who were completely loyal to the Yun Kingdom court, the principals of the other hundred schools were all deprived of their official positions as academic scholars and expelled from the Jixia Academy.

In this regard, the various schools of thought did not make any statement.

After all, this time, Shi Mingzhe used each family as a weapon, and they were held accountable, which cannot be refuted.

Moreover, within each family, it is inevitable that there will be struggles for power and profit.

Yun Kingdom also has the potential to coerce all countries in the world.If it is true to unify the Central Plains and achieve great things, then the principals of the various schools in Yunguo will naturally be able to rely on their status advantages to place their confidantes and disciples first in the Yunguo court, and among the various schools. gain sufficient voice.

Therefore, regarding Emperor Yun's fury and anger at the heads of various schools, among the hundreds of schools and schools, there are more people who keep silent and push the boat along in secret...

People from hundreds of families in the palace were all stunned, but they could only sigh softly, saluted together, and then went to the banquet under the leadership of the palace staff.

After sending off these people from hundreds of families, and also got two very useful four-star treasures, Xiao Cheng was in a good mood, and followed the two princes to the harem with great interest.

At this time, in the harem, in order to win a lottery, they have prepared the ceremony of catching Zhou.At this time, Xiao Cheng also had the idea of ​​going to join in the fun.

But before Xiao Cheng could reach the harem, he received a request from Lu Bing from Shang Yu's preparation office.

Today's Shangyu Preparatory Office, with the help of Xia Guo's embroidered clothing envoy, is flourishing in the Xia Kingdom, monitoring the affairs of the Xia Kingdom in an all-round way for Xiao Cheng.

At this time, with such a hasty request for summons, Xiao Cheng knew very well that something serious must have happened to Xia Guo!
Xiao Cheng immediately stopped his steps towards the harem, and instead explained a few words, then hurried to the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

When Xiao Cheng arrived, he happened to meet Lu Bing rushing over.

Seeing Xiao Cheng's face, Lu Bing hurriedly bowed and said hastily:
"Your Majesty! The envoy Guo Yiwei sent someone to send a secret report that Xia Guo sent troops to the Turks a few months ago to sweep across the grasslands. Half a month ago, they even defeated the 40 Turkic army in Zaumend, the Turks."

"After this battle, the Turks' vitality was severely damaged, and they were no longer able to go south to threaten the Xia Kingdom. The pressure on the northern border of the Xia Kingdom has dropped sharply, and more than [-] troops are likely to be transferred to the southwest front. I am afraid that the war will resume, please Your Majesty as soon as possible." Make a decision!"

Hearing this, Xiao Cheng frowned slightly, and said in a deep voice:
"This Turk can't help but fight...do you have a detailed military report?"

It has only been a few months since Xia Guo sent troops, but Turkic has been seriously injured?If there is such a disparity in combat power, why would Xia Guo spend a lot of manpower and material resources on maintaining the defense line of the northern border for more than a hundred years?

Hearing this, Lu Bing quickly offered the secret report in his hands and said:

"Please, Your Majesty, take a look!"

Xiao Cheng asked someone to pick it up, and after reading it carefully, a trace of solemnity flashed in his eyes, and said solemnly:
"Marquis Raoyang Ting, General Zuojun, Wu Zhengping?"

"Yes! This person is a senior general in the northern border army. This person does not rule the roost with bravery, but is good at using tactics. After the death of Xia General Qi Mo and the capture of Qiu Tianlu, this person has been from the northern border. Stand out among the generals and become the commander-in-chief of the Xia army." Lu Bing said hastily.

"Hehe, from this point of view, without my big cloud, this Wu Zhengping might not be so easy to get ahead..." Xiao Cheng chuckled lightly.

"Let the Shangyu Preparatory Office pay attention to collecting intelligence information about this person. I am quite interested in him."

"Yes... but Your Majesty, in this way, our front line of Dayun has 30 troops, and the defense line is a little weak. Do we need to deploy troops from the middle of the country to reinforce the front line?"

Xiao Cheng shook his head directly when he heard the words, and said:
"No need! The current state of Xia's finances can't afford Yu Zhaoling to fight another battle. The state of Xia needs to recuperate and accumulate strength. I, Dayun, also want to completely digest the land of the seven counties in the southwest. Therefore, in the past two years, the two countries should Nothing major happened..."

Having said that, Xiao Cheng suddenly twitched his mouth and said with a sneer:
"However, I can't let Yu Zhaoling sit idle...Zhang Shicheng, Chen Youliang, and Henghai General Wang Zhi, let them move and help me turn the southeast coast of Xia Kingdom upside down!"

"Delaying the development of the Xia Kingdom for two years, I, Dayun, digested all the land of the seven counties, and Ashinasheer regrouped the tribes of the grassland for my use. If we attack from the north and the south, we will be able to unify the Central Plains and achieve great things."
