Datang Longya

Chapter 166

The most frightening thing is the mold that Yan Liben didn’t know how to make. There is a word on each wat board, such as "Liang", which is for Liang Guogong Fang Xuanling, such as "Wei", which is for Wei Guogong Li Jing. , This "Zhao" is obviously for Zhao Guogong's eldest grandson Wuji.

The wooden box was very thick, so Leng Feng would not get burned while holding it while riding a horse, and when he arrived at the Tai Chi Palace, the glass wat board could already be touched with his hands.

The emperor's ministers in the Taiji Palace have already dealt with some government affairs, the most important of which is the revision of the criminal law.

Castration, beheading, quartering, disembowelling, Lingchi... As early as the Shang and Zhou dynasties, there were these disgusting punishments, but Dai Zhou believed that the most fundamental meaning of the law is to restrain people's behavior, no matter how serious the crime is , Left and right are just one death, why torture the prisoner before death?
Amending the law, abolishing these corporal punishments, and giving death row prisoners a good time is also a kind of merit and a symbol of the reign of the "Holy King".

Holding the banner of "Holy King" is easy to use. Although Li Shimin has repeatedly told his courtiers that he hates flattery and flattery, he is still very useful when someone really flatters him.

Therefore, Li Shimin passed Dai Zhou's proposal without hesitation, and allowed the Dali Temple of the Ministry of Punishment to re-sentence. For many major crimes, beheading for the most evil, and hanging for the second evil, is the major crime of treason. Parents, wives and children are at most demoted to low status.

For a while, all the officials in the court, including Wei Zheng, flattered Li Shimin.

Leng Feng came at the wrong time, and when Li Shimin saw Leng Feng coming in, his interest just faded away...well, here comes the trouble!
Changsun Wuji still remembered the way the generals chose and devoured people just now, and hurriedly got up to face Leng Feng: "Oh! Duke Xi, it was just a joke just now, why did you take it seriously..."

Leng Feng didn't answer Changsun Wuji's words, he wanted to send the wat board down immediately.

"Oh, Mr. Zhao, you came just in time. Come, come, this first wat board is yours."

As he said that, Leng Feng tentatively touched the glass in the wooden box. Fortunately, it was only warm now, not hot.

Changsun Wuji was dumbfounded when he took the wat board from Leng Feng!

Gong Guogong really has a glazed wat board!
Leng Feng glanced at the second one and said, "Hey, this is Fang Xiang's wat board, come here, Fang Xiang, take it..."

Leng Feng divided the wat boards there, Changsun Wuji looked at the wat boards in his hand, this is colored glaze!Moreover, the whole body of the wat board has bright eyes, and there is a raised "Zhao" character on it, with beautiful lines on the side of the word.

The two sides of the wat board are as smooth as jade, but the middle is rough to the touch, and the ink writing on it will not be intermittent.This alone is better than his jade tablet, because after he writes on his jade tablet, it will fall off many times.

Li Shimin watched Leng Feng hand out wat boards to all the officials from the throne, and could not help cursing secretly why the emperor didn't need wat boards. There was only one piece of glaze in his treasury that was not round or square, and he had paid a lot of money to get it in the early years.

Compared with the wat board Leng Feng sent to the courtiers...it's nothing but rubbish!

The last wat board with the word "E" was stuffed into Yu Chigong, and there were countless princes in the court.

As for the rest, if you don't have it, you don't have it!They occupy the seat of the Duke, but they are all vain.

At the beginning of the establishment of each dynasty, they will wantonly distribute the meritorious officials to reassure them, and Datang is no exception.

The title of "Duke of the State" is actually the same thing as the "consolation prize" in the supermarket lottery at the beginning of the establishment of a country, and it is just a nice word to say.

Dukes are also divided into strong and weak, one depends on real power: At this time, there are not a few people who have the title of Duke but have no real power.And Fang Xuanling, Liang Guogong, and the prime minister, even if they don't have the title of Duke, they are still big bosses.

The second is to look at the feudal food town: like before Leng Feng, there was no fief food town, so it is said that Leng Feng's "Yongguo Gong" is a false title, and there is no such thing as Luzhou County in the Tang Dynasty.

The third is to check whether it is hereditary or not: a decent title is only valuable if it is hereditary. Although it will be downgraded to become a county prince when the son is born, at least the son will be able to live his life without any worries.

Leng Feng can't be hereditary. Speaking of it, he hasn't even received the imperial edict, so it's no wonder that Leng Feng's reputation in the court has faded.There are too many princes, but the real bosses are all sitting in front of the court!
After distributing the wat boards, Leng Feng returned to Yu Chigong and sat down.

The Jinglei Arrow and Jinglei were exposed, and naturally the Dragon Tooth Army and the Dragon Scale Army were also exposed.

Leng Feng can also wear the name "Big Brother" on his head now, not because of anything else, but because he has [-] troops under his command!

At this time, those who have an army under their command are definitely heavyweights in the court, because even Li Jing and the others don't have the power to command the army in normal times.

Li Shimin jumped from the king of Qin to the emperor by grasping the military power. How could he release the military power again, so like Cheng Yaojin, Zuo Wuwei was originally in command, but now he also commands Zuo Wuwei, but In name only.

Now, as long as it is not a war, the generals can only hide in the mansion to grow fat, and cannot command the army one by one, which is equivalent to a serious crime of treason.Only when there is a war at the border and the emperor appoints them, can they think about how to play.

(Ahem, pull away, back to the court.)
Fang Xuanling didn't expect Leng Feng to actually get the colored glaze, which was crystal clear and ingenious, which cannot be described enough.He was holding the wat board with the word "Liang" on it, for fear that it would accidentally fall to the ground and break it. I am afraid that the imperial palace does not have this thing, so it can already be kept as a family heirloom.

Although Li Shimin was greedy on the throne, it would be too embarrassing for an emperor to open his mouth to beg for things from his ministers in the court hall, so he could only ask someone to invite the Supreme Emperor, and then to discuss the policy of "let all soldiers practice arrows and throwing".

He thought about it all night, but he didn't think of how this policy could be related to "solving the boredom of the emperor".

When Li Yuan returned to the court hall, Li Shimin returned to stand on the steps.

After sitting down, Li Yuan said to Leng Feng: "Tell me, the emperor said that it was your suggestion to let me go to court this time, and he also said that it was related to the strengthening of the army. Going out of the deep palace is not an amazing policy, I will punish you."

Leng Feng stood up, bowed to Li Yuan and said: "Your Majesty, you have seen Jinglei arrows and Jinglei arrows before, and those who practice them often cannot use them proficiently. Therefore, it is necessary to find an alternative method for the soldiers to practice frequently. "

Li Yuan nodded: "That's true, but what does this have to do with me?"

Leng Feng said with a smile: "The largest part of my Tang army is the government soldiers. They usually work in agriculture, so it is difficult to mobilize their enthusiasm for training archery and throwing. Therefore, I have the audacity to ask the Supreme Emperor for some silver. Taishang Emperor's Cup Tournament'."

"The Supreme Emperor's Cup competition?" Li Yuan was very interested in this competition named after him, and said, "Tell me in detail, what is the rules and procedures of this competition?"

Leng Feng said: "It's very simple. The selection starts from the soldiers of the Zhechong Prefecture. The strongest one in a prefecture can get rewards from you, the Supreme Emperor. The winners of each prefecture in a state continue to compete, and the strongest in a state can still get rewards.

Until the winners of each field compete in Chang'an, the best soldiers in the country can get the final reward.

I want to take your drinking gold cup as the final reward, so I named this competition 'Taishanghuang Cup Competition'. "
