Raid

Chapter 238
"Fadu? If you blindly only know the ancestral family law and have no flexibility, then how come Shang Yang's reforms, how come Hu Fu rides and shoots, sticks to the old ways, and sticks to the old ways. This is absolutely impossible." Pei Diancheng said coldly, and he continued: "Besides The Holy Majesty and the Eldest Princess expelled the foreign enemies in the universe, and all the people in the world have received the favor of the Holy Majesty and the Eldest Princess. Aren’t scholars among them? Are the ways of a sage and the actions of a gentleman teach them to be ungrateful?”

"Pei Gong! Don't mess around. If you want to be kind, there are thousands of ways. Why should you lose your law?" Li Wang glanced at Pei Diancheng angrily, then looked at Emperor Hongxing, and said: "If the Holy One thinks that you will be granted the title Three thousand households are not enough, but that's not the case, the eldest princess has been a widow for a long time, it is better to choose a son-in-law for the eldest princess, so that the eldest princess can enjoy the rest of her life without worrying about it."

Pei Diancheng looked at King Li in astonishment, if not for the presence of all the officials at this time, he would almost go up and give King Li two punches to wake him up.

The Holy Majesty held this banquet thinking how to bestow favor on the eldest princess, but King Li proposed to choose a husband for the eldest princess, so that the eldest princess would let go of her authority and go home to take care of her husband and raise her son?One of King Li and him must be crazy.

"His Royal Highness Li, are you crazy? At such a critical moment, you actually asked His Royal Highness the Eldest Princess to choose a son-in-law?" Pei Diancheng couldn't believe it.

"Choosing a son-in-law is just not getting married." Of course, it is impossible for Li Shengxi to take care of his husband and raise his children at this juncture. What he said was just to calm down the people present.

The Northern Expedition will be decided within half a year. If the Northern Expedition succeeds, Li Shengxi will make another contribution. At this time, he will be crowned king. Then what will be crowned at that time? Let her be the emperor!

One by one, all crazy.

"His Royal Highness, Prince Pei, calm down both of you." Xiao Jingping said after considering, he got up slowly, and looked at Emperor Hongxing, "His Royal Highness has made outstanding achievements, so she deserves to be crowned king."

"Duke Xiao." King Li interrupted.

Xiao Jingping smiled slightly, "It's just that the eldest princess already bears the seal of the eldest princess, and the seal of the eldest princess itself is comparable to the existence of princes and kings. There is no one in the world who bears the title of two kings."

King Li nodded, feeling relieved that there were still calm people present.

But immediately he felt that something was wrong. Although Xiao Jingping didn't admire the eldest princess like Pei Diancheng, Xiao Jingping also appreciated the eldest princess a lot. Usually, when he mentioned the eldest princess's behavior of braving the world's disgrace, it was mostly a compliment. Now what? It will prevent the eldest princess from being crowned king.

wrong
"If the Holy Majesty wants to be graced, it is better to allow Her Royal Highness the eldest princess to enjoy the power of prince without changing her title."

King Li: "."

Sure enough, he knew.

What's the difference between this and being crowned king directly.According to Emperor Hongxing's love for the eldest princess, one can imagine what crazy things he will do at that time.

Whether it is directly crowning Li Shengxi as the king, or granting Li Shengxi the power of the prince, it is all against the world. Once such a precedent is set, then in the future, if the emperor wants to give the eldest princess anything, that is It's justifiable.

The difference between a prince and a married woman is not just food, clothing, shelter, and transportation. He is the Minister of Zongzhengsi, and he knows it best.

The treatment given to the prince, followed by the fiefdom.In this dynasty, the king was granted the title of king, and the maximum number of fiefs granted was thirty states.Then there is the addition of officials.With Li Shengxi's merits, if he wants to increase his official position, how much will he have to add?Three gongs and three divisions, three provinces and six ministries, nine temples and five supervisors, these are just officials in the capital!
One must know that the eldest princess today, no matter how powerful she is, no matter how much she is under one person or above ten thousand people, she has no official position.

The so-called name is not right, she has no official position, and it will be much easier to take away her authority in the future.Everyone present is very clear about the difference and weight of having an official position or not.

He looked around and glanced at the people around him, and suddenly he understood what the Holy Majesty's intention was for discussing the reward for the eldest princess at such a banquet.

At this banquet, all the high-ranking officials and nobles came, but among these high-ranking officials and nobles, except for him, no one could stop the emperor from conferring on Li Shengxi.

Naturally, there is no need to say more about the lineage of the Holy Majesty. Most of the East Palace lineage is also attached to the eldest princess. The two relatives are muddy and cannot support the wall.The clan died in all odds, the young and courageous muddled sages and eldest princesses, and the rest of the older ones were recuperating at home and never attended the banquet.As for the aristocratic family, the Gu family can't do it alone. With the lessons learned from the Mu family, they can only protect themselves wisely.

So only him.

King Li was resentful in his heart, and suddenly he felt a little bit angry. Did they know that the designation of the eldest princess gave her the rightful and real power, and now it's okay for her to be in power now. You can suppress such a courtier.

The eldest princess has no dissent now, and will she not have dissent in the future?

Taking a step back, even if the eldest princess has no dissatisfaction, so what?Didn't anyone think about the aftermath?
It doesn't make much difference whether to grant this privilege to Li Sheng, because she is the most honorable girl in the world, no one can talk about honor or inferiority in front of her except the Holy Majesty, she is the honorable one.But once the eldest princess is used as an example, women all over the world will follow suit one after another in the future, what kind of chaos will it cause.At that time, yin and yang will be out of order, and the superiority and inferiority will be reversed, so how to deal with it.

King Li only felt cold all over his body.

"Your Majesty." Li Wang did not give up and wanted to persuade him again, but the emperor in the high hall did not intend to give him this chance.

"Xiao Qing's words are justified. Since this is the case, I will pass on my will and give the eldest princess the treatment of a prince."

"Your Majesty!" King Li shouted loudly, interrupting Emperor Hongxing's words, the singing and dancing in the hall had stopped at this moment, he knew that Emperor Hongxing had heard his words clearly.Emperor Hongxing just pretended not to hear it. Emperor Hongxing wanted to play dumb, but he couldn't give Emperor Hongxing this chance.

"King Li." Emperor Hongxing's gaze was slightly dark, and the gaze he was looking at King Li was somewhat unclear.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please listen to my humble minister. If this example is open, I am afraid that future generations will follow suit. At that time, the rules and regulations will be reversed. If there are women who make trouble at that time, how will Your Majesty deal with it? The Eldest Princess does have merit, but as a It is a matter of course for the courtiers of the country to serve the country, and it is nothing more than generous rewards, how can we make an exception because of her? The Holy One loves his younger sister, but if it is beyond the control in every possible way, it is different from the previous emperor. "

"King Li!" All the courtiers beside him couldn't help but speak.

In the past, when the literati died admonishing and the officials came in to admonish, they were often compared to the emperor because the sage did not listen to the persuasion, but in the sage's reign, few people made such remarks.One is because this sage is the only wise king in the world, and the other is because of this sage's iron-blooded wrist.

But now, King Li dared to say such words, how could they not be surprised.
