Late Tang Dynasty Floating Life

Chapter 1085 Support and Process

"Under the door: Minister of Zuo Ming, granted from heaven...Chen Cheng, Dao Gao Wang Zuo, Cai Mao Guozhen. Hongfu ceremony, showing the integrity of human relations. Learning from Confucianism, literary harmony and elegance... Ke Zhongshu's servant, Zhongshu Menxia Ping Zhang Shi." - "Accrediting Chen Cheng Zhongshu Shi Lang Ping Zhang Shi System".

Zhu Pu did not expect that on the last day before leaving Luoyang, the books he drafted were all about the upstarts of the new dynasty.

Zhongshu Shilang, Pingzhang Zhengshi, and the prime minister of the eight classics.As long as the Menxia Province approves, the official document can be formed and the appointment will be issued-there is no way that the Menxia Province will not agree.

Let's look at the other copies at hand: "Accrediting Song Le Zhongshu Shi Lang's Ping Zhang Shi Zhi", "Accrediting Zhao Guangfeng's Mentor Shi Lang Ping Zhang Shi Zhi", "Accrediting Secretary Supervisor Lu Siye Tong Ping Zhang Shi Zhi".

well!Zhu Pu sighed and asked people to send these straws to the door.

One emperor and one courtier.

Some people are disappointed, others are happy.

Chen Cheng and others have just finished meeting the queen.Everyone knows that she is a puppet, but there is still a scene, and everyone is still grateful for the queen's kindness on the surface.

Before leaving, the queen suddenly stopped Chen Cheng.

"Chen Shilang, I heard that you are always quick-witted..." the queen said hesitantly.

The others had already left, Chen Cheng was a little puzzled.

"What's the queen wondering?" Chen Cheng asked.

Empress He is graceful and graceful, and she is not yet thirty, so... Chen Cheng seems to understand something.

"I also know that the Grand Tutor is arranging the abdication ceremony, once it is completed..." The queen paused, as if she didn't know what to say.

Chen Cheng rolled his eyes, stroked his beard lightly, smiled, and asked, "What does the Queen think of the Grand Tutor?"

His question is very interesting, no matter what the answer is.

"Taifu is heroic and heroic, he is a heroic man. He is in the prime of his life..." The empress blushed.

The corners of Chen Cheng's mouth twitched, His Highness's old problem was repeated.

"Have you heard of the big and small Zhu family?" Chen Cheng asked.

The queen was silent for a while, and her face became even redder.

Daer Zhu is the daughter of Er Zhurong, first she was the concubine of Emperor Wei Ming, and then remarried Emperor Wei Zhuang as the queen, and was finally acquired by Gao Huan, who became the concubine of Emperor Qi Shenwu.

Xiaoerzhu is the daughter of Erzhuzhao, who was first the empress of Emperor Wei Ming, and was also acquired by Gao Huan in the end, and became his concubine.

The queen is not bad at learning, so she naturally knows that Gao Huan has taken two former queens into the harem.

Hearing that Gao Huan respected Empress Daerzhu very much, even if he took her home as a concubine, he still called himself a "lower official" when meeting her.Well, this subordinate asked the queen to give birth to him two sons.

Empress He remembered that Taifu Shao always called himself a "minister" when he belittled her, this thief!
"Qi Shenwu has taken two empresses as his concubines in his life, and also concubine Zheng Dache, Princess of Guangping, Princess Li of Chengyang, and Princess Feng of Rencheng." Chen Cheng smiled cheaply and said: "The queen can be careful. Think about it."

After finishing speaking, he added another sentence: "Don't let Song Shilang know. He is a square man, I'm afraid it's... hehe."

Gao Huan accepted five royal wives as his concubines, which was unprecedented.

"Thank you Chen Shilang for your advice." The queen said sincerely.

"Small things." Chen Cheng said: "Princess Zhe is a powerful person, don't contradict her."

After finishing speaking, Chen Cheng ran away in a hurry.

Uh, it doesn't seem like it's the first time he's done this, he's always on the verge of danger.If Shao Shude left before Zhe Fangai, the life of the Chen family would be difficult.

After Chen Cheng left, the smile on Empress He's face faded slightly, and she sighed faintly.

On February 25, after the court meeting ended.

The queen issued an edict, ordering [-] German troops from left and right heavens to attack Weibo on the grounds that "the young and strong are separated from the farms, and the female workers are abandoned in sericulture", "violent, cruel and cruel".

Shao Shude had already greeted him in advance.When the edict was sent to the Privy Council of Nanya, Li Changyuan and Ke Chong were ordered by the Privy Council to convene all the people to read it together.

Hu Zhen, Deputy Privy Envoy of the House of Commons, arrived first.

Zhe Zongben had just set off from Ezhou, but instead of returning to Luoyang, after accumulating a wave of food and grass, the two armies of Governor Weisheng and Youguo attacked Yang Xingmi again.

Therefore, he is unable to come.

After a while, Zhu Shuzong, Yang Yue and Wang Bian arrived one after another.

There is one less Zhuge Zhongfang.

This guy was hesitant, and recently suffered a defeat in Sanquan County, losing more than [-] soldiers, so he submitted a form and agreed to become an official in the court.However, after only ten days, the soldiers and civilians were asked to come up and keep themselves, which was capricious.

There are a total of six privy envoys and deputy privy envoys, and there are actually four of them.

"Li Chengzhi, everyone is here, you can read it." Zhu Shuzong and the other three said after the ceremony.

"Yes." Li Changyuan cleared his throat, and began to read: "The evil is chaotic, the royal family is in trouble..."

Everyone listened silently, the atmosphere was awe-inspiring.

This time the troops were dispatched, which was quite different from the past.The degree of regularization has been greatly improved, and it should be permanent in the future.

The imperial edict was not long, so Li Changyuan read it quickly, then handed it to Ke Chong, and said, "Ke Chengzhi, please continue to promulgate it."

"Okay." Ke Chong took the edict and read it out again in public.

After reading it, he handed the edict to Zhu Shuzong, saying: "Private Zhu, there is a file for this imperial edict. Please keep this copy in the Privy Council properly. We will go through the troop deployment process later."

"The minister obeys the imperial edict." After finishing speaking, he wrote a reply to Ke Chong on the spot, and several privy envoys and deputy privy envoys wrote on the receipt one after another.

After doing this, Zhu Shuzong immediately ordered the Privy Council's assistants, such as the recorder, chief minister, and chief secretary, to draft a document for the deployment of troops.

This is actually very fast, because the preparations should have been almost completed long ago.After a while, a secretary handed over the paperwork.

After Zhu Shuzong looked at it, he felt that there was no problem, so he said: "Everyone, this matter is urgent and simple, and the Taifu only needs four people to sign and use the seal. The military situation is extremely urgent, and there is no delay. Let's start now?"

After speaking, the first one signed his name and used his seal.

Hu Zhen, Yang Yue, and Wang Bian took it one by one, read it carefully, and then signed and stamped it.

So far, this troop transfer document has come into effect.Next, the Nanya Privy Council will send two fast horses to the Tiande army station in Yanshi County and order the army to go out.

At the same time, there are also corresponding allocations from Cangcheng for food, equipment, and military resources-the Cangdu can refuse the army's request without an order from the Privy Council.

"It's just a transfer of the first army, and it's so troublesome." After the matter was over, Yang Yue shook her head and couldn't help complaining.

"Old General Yang, don't make jokes." Hu Zhen said with a wry smile: "The system of a big country should be like this."

Hu Zhen was born as a descendant, and he has no temper in front of Yang Yue.

This old man is not forgiving, but his qualifications are very old and he has made great military exploits. Hu Zhen really didn't dare to offend him.Especially when I heard that King Xia started his army to attack Tuoba Sigong, Yang Yue, the envoy of Yudole town, led [-] cavalry to join him, securing the victory in one fell swoop.Otherwise, the outcome of that battle would be hard to say.

With this affection, no matter how stinky Yang Yue's mouth is, his wealth is indispensable.

"Actually, when I was in Hedong, that's what the generals of the Yamen did." Zhu Shuzong said: "The Jiedu envoy ordered that the Marquis of Duyu dispatch troops to provide food and grass for the envoys, and the generals of the Yamen led the army to go out. At the end of the Qianfu , Kang Chuangui was the Jiedu envoy of Hedong, and Zhang Kai and Guo Yu were killed in the city for them. They had no soldiers at hand and could only be slaughtered. Li Quanzhong led the army to go out and rebelled when he returned to the division. Li Keju, the Jiedu envoy of Youzhou, set himself on fire and died. In normal times, Li Quanzhong would not have had such an opportunity to contact the army, so he could only be punished and executed by Li Keju."

"Extremely, extremely." Wang Bian's qualifications are mediocre, so he can only smooth things over with a smile at this time: "His Royal Highness is about to establish a national title system, so naturally he must become regular."

"A flatterer doesn't look like a warrior at all." Yang Yue sneered and left.

Zhu Shuzong smiled, he knew this guy's temper, so he didn't care about it.

The national system has been improved little by little, very good, very good!

"This year's scientific examination, who will be sent to take the examination?" The spring outside the hall was cold, but the inside of the hall was warm as spring, Empress He asked.

"Minister of the Ministry of Rites, Pei Yuchang is fine." Shao Shude said, "This matter is handled by Zhongshu's sect, so you don't have to ask."

Shao Shude has one good thing. He is very generous, likes to share benefits with others, and has strong united front ability.

The king and the scholar-bureaucrats ruled the world together, and promised benefits to others, and they would be honored.As for whether his children and grandchildren will deprive the power of the prime minister like Li Zhi did, he can't control it.When Taizong was alive, he probably didn't expect his son to have so many thoughts.

"Oh." Empress He was preoccupied, and asked casually, "Why didn't you send troops this time?"

"I won't go anywhere until the big event is completed." Shao Shude said directly.

For him, there is nothing more important than abdication and proclaiming the emperor.

This is also the biggest thing of the entire Kansai military and political group.In contrast, other things can be carried forward and are not worth mentioning.

"Oh." Empress He hummed again.

"What's wrong with you?" Shao Shude asked softly, holding the Queen in his arms.

The buttons of the queen's dress are fully undone, which is very eye-catching.

"After the abdication, how about the Taifu marrying me?" The Queen summoned up her courage and said.

Shao Shude said: "I dare not insult the queen."

The queen was extremely angry: "You are not as courageous as Gao Huan!"

Shao Shude was taken aback. He has read "Book of Wei" and "Book of Northern Qi" to pieces, how could he not know what the Queen meant?
"When was the last time the saint visited you?" Shao Shude asked suddenly.

The queen was a little shy: "Ninety-nine Double Ninth Festival."

It's been five months...

"How is the saint?" Shao Shude asked.

"It's okay." The queen blushed and said.She doesn't want to talk about this topic. After all, she is the queen, and she has a strong sense of immorality. Although she was forced to do so at the beginning, she is already a little bit of that now.

"Have you accepted your fate?" Shao Shude asked.

"It should be... right." The queen was not sure either.

"Don't worry about it." Shao Shude said: "After the first court meeting at the beginning of March, you will have another gift of Jiuxi, and I will accept it this time. Then prepare the booklet for the abdication ceremony, which will be finished in March. You first send the Nine Tin Put the jade seal away, and use the seal directly, don't worry about the saint."

"I have already taken the Jade Seal of Chuanguo," said the queen.

"What a clever guy." Shao Shude praised.

The queen is a little proud.

"I have something important to report tonight." Shao Shude hugged the queen even tighter, and whispered in her ear.

"The Grand Tutor can go to Lichun Palace to play a performance."

"I obey the order, come to the Lichun Palace tonight at Haishi, and listen to the Empress Yuyin face to face."
