The First Young Master of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 1816

Until noon the next day, Xuan Shijing opened his eyes drowsily. Fortunately, after he was carried back last night, Jin Yang and Qin Bingyue gave him hangover soup, otherwise he would sleep till now after being drunk. My head is definitely going to explode.

"Come here." Xuan Shijing called out of the room.

Soon, the door was knocked and pushed open.

"Master, you are awake." The maid came in and bowed.

"Madam and them?" Xuan Shijing asked.

"Today, Your Highness and Second Lady took Miss and Young Master to Princess Gaoyang's house for a walk." The maid said: "Before he left, His Highness ordered that if Master wakes up, he will let you eat something to pad your belly. "

"Get ready for washing." Xuan Shijing said.

"Yes." The maid responded, and then went down to prepare to go. Soon, the things were brought to Xuan Shijing's room. At this moment, Xuan Shijing had already tidied up, washed her face, and then brushed her teeth. Then went downstairs.

Xuan Shijing hadn't eaten anything since yesterday afternoon, and when he woke up, his stomach was empty and he didn't feel well.

The things prepared in the kitchen were also some light side dishes, as well as porridge, which suited Xuan Shijing's appetite.

"Master, in the morning, someone from the palace sent a message, saying that after you wake up, you will be allowed to enter the palace. His Royal Highness is waiting for you in the Xuanzheng Hall." Seeing that Xuan Shijing had eaten and drank, the housekeeper said, stepped forward and said.

"Who sent the news?" Xuan Shijing asked.

"Master Lin'an came here in person," said the housekeeper.

Xuan Shijing nodded: "Yes, I understand."

Xuan Shijing thought to himself, it should be that Li Chengqian found out about the group of them going to eat yesterday.

Originally, Li Chengqian should also be one of them, but now the time is different, the situation is different, and Li Chengqian is no longer the previous Li Chengqian.

Thinking of this, Xuan Shijing sighed in his heart, there is still a long way to go.

After tidying up, Xuan Shijing took a carriage to the new palace on Longshouyuan, entered the Danfeng Gate, bypassed the Hanyuan Hall, and came to the Xuanzheng Hall behind.

"I have seen Your Highness." In the Xuanzheng Hall, Xuan Shijing cupped his hands and saluted.

"There's no need to be too polite. Let's see, aren't you the only one missing?" Li Chengqian said with a smile.

At this moment Xuan Shijing looked around, and only then did he see the people who were already standing in the hall, that is, the few people who gathered for dinner yesterday.

Li Chengqian wouldn't really mind if they didn't bring him to dinner, would he?It shouldn't be.

"It seems that among us, the one who wakes up the latest is Xiao Jing." Li Tai said with a smile: "It's rare, it's rare."

"Yeah, usually, it's Xiao Jing who watches us making jokes. God's way of reincarnation, this time it's Xiao Jing's turn." Li Ke also teased Xuan Shijing a few words.

Cheng Chumo and the others sat on the sidelines and laughed loudly, obviously, he and Qin Ying were the two people who drank the most. They didn't expect Xuan Shijing's alcohol tolerance to be so bad, and he could drink like that with just a little wine.

"Okay, let's all sit down and talk." Li Chengqian patted Xuan Shijing on the shoulder, and then returned to his seat.

Xuan Shijing also found a place in the hall and sat down.

"Letting you enter the palace today is also to give you some inspiration." Li Chengqian said: "You also know the date of the eighth day of September. Three days later, the three provinces have already drawn up and submitted your awards. I edited it and sent it back to the three provinces, I will let you know in advance today, three days later, after all, the scene will not be small, and everyone has to be aware of it in advance."

Everyone present nodded their heads.

The days after three days are indeed very important, and now Li Chengqian is ventilating them in private to make them happy in advance, because the focus after three days may not really be on rewarding them.

The schedule drawn up by the Ministry of Rites has been sent to Li Chengqian for review. On the one hand, His Majesty Li Er will abdicate, and on the other hand, Li Chengqian will succeed to the throne. On the same day, it is considered a handover ceremony. It is as complicated as it needs to be. It seems that only by making the ceremony more complicated can the importance of this matter be highlighted.

Whether it is for His Majesty Li Er or Li Chengqian, the day after three days is all physical work.

All the people sitting in the hall listened to Li Chengqian's words quietly, but no one made a sound.

Even the arrangements given by the three provinces are at most about the arrangements of Cheng Chumo, Li Ke and Xuan Shijing. Li Chongyi can't reach it, and neither can the other two brothers of the Cheng family. As for Qin Ying, he can more or less get involved. A little bit, when Li Jing attacked Tubo at the beginning of the year, Qin Ying also contributed in the army. Although he was not in the same establishment, but taking the places around the Jishi Mountains, it was inevitable that Qin Ying also got the imperial court's order to send troops. So they cooperated with Li Jing to take down that area, so if it is about meritorious deeds and rewards, Qin Ying is also among them.

Furthermore, it is Li Jing. As for Li Jing, Li Chengqian has already sent the news. As for Hei Chi Changzhi and Liu Shenli, when they were in Hexi and they were still in the army, they had received rewards as soon as they entered. In Chang'an, if there are more rewards, they will only be things like money and silk, and the official position will not be changed again. The same is true for Li Jing. Today's Li Jing is already an extremely human minister. Nothing to reward.

And after this battle is over, I'm afraid Li Jing's chance to come out again will be gone.

Fighting against the Tibetans in Longxi was probably the last battle of Li Jing's military career.

One is that Li Jing is too old to go to the battlefield again, and the other is that Li Jing is already an extremely powerful minister, and the imperial court's rewards for him have come to an end, so it is impossible to give him another chance to lead troops to fight .

This was something Li Jing could not have wished for. Ever since Hou Junji's accident happened, Li Jing had become somewhat self-contained. In this war, it was Li Chengqian's soft-spoken, soft-handed and hard-handed way that allowed Li Jing to lead the troops.

At any rate, Datang is fighting on two fronts, so it can't be sloppy from the very beginning.

As for the people sitting in the Xuanzheng Hall, they are in their prime, and there are plenty of opportunities. Moreover, Li Chengqian is still in the top position.

Although it is said that the emperor is ruthless, but from childhood to now, he must be more or less closer than the ministers in the court.

People are neither grass nor trees.

"First of all, Xiaojing. Xiaojing has been sitting in the county seat for a long time. When he came back from Xiongjin, Xiaojing destroyed Goguryeo. At that time, he didn't give a lot of rewards for his achievements. This time he was awarded together. , change the title to Qi Guogong, as for gold and silver money, I guess you don't care about it, the specific amount is still being considered by the three provinces." Li Chengqian said.

It's one thing whether people care about it or not, the reward from the imperial court must be given.
