Chapter seven hundred and thirty third head formation
Li Xin had previously been in contact with Prince Xing’s Mansion and Jiangning Mansion. After returning to Beijing, he was promoted to the provincial envoy. He had not even had a mansion and rented a small courtyard in Tokyo to live.
After he returned home, he wrote the memorial and wrote the words he wanted to say on the ivory card so that he would not be nervous and unable to explain them clearly. He usually asked him to say something, but he was very likely to be confused when he was on the big side. It was necessary to keep the words in a place that was easy to see.
He was ready early, but Li Xin was still very hesitant.
Whether it is forcing the ship staff to confess or collect the figures of the Luo people, Li Xin can handle it properly, but he is completely unsure of the matter at the moment, and his eyes are dark! He is not familiar with the Tokyo court, how can he know the depth of the water inside?
However, Wang Pu Nai, the Privy Councilor, told him about such an important matter. If he refuses, will there be good results in the future?
Li Xin did not forget that he was in the cell for several months, and Wang Pu took him out. Since this person could easily get himself out of the Tokyo prison, it should be quite easy to send him in.
He remembered the meal he had eaten in prison, and once there were some maggots in the bowl!
Li Xin stayed restlessly for a moment, and saw the slave sweeping the floor outside the door, and his family was still in Hedong, and there were a few entourages who were working on buying firewood, rice, cooking, washing and other work. Li Xin said, "I want to eat mutton and corn porridge. I want to cook with Hedong corn, so you can get some for me."
"I'll do it now," the slave replied.
After Li Xin ate what he wanted to eat, he thought that he had not been close to women for a long time, and he still didn't know if he would have a chance in the future. He also asked the slave to take the money to go to the kiln in the nearby alley to hire a young lady back.
But the slave was a little old and it was not very appropriate to handle the facts. The kiln girl he was looking for looked very dirty, with a stinky smell mixed with the complex smell of powder. Li Xin worked it for a long time but failed.
Li Xin lived in a small house. The woman didn't know that he was an official and said rudely: "If you can't, you'll find a kiln sister. She's full!"
After hearing this, Li Xin was angry and looked at the woman coldly. It was too easy to deal with the woman in the kiln. This woman had never seen how Li Xin used to force confession!
But he eventually sent her money to leave, and there was no need to worry about the woman in a kiln.
He sat on the chair and sighed.
A few days later, it was the fifteenth day, and the Jinxiang Palace was in full swing. Officials in Beijing were going to congratulate him. When Li Xin was ready to set off, it was not dawn. In winter, the day was short and the night was long. Li Xin rode a horse. The air was dry and cold on the dark road, and the wind was particularly uncomfortable. At this time, he was like going to the execution ground. It was not so easy to seek wealth and honor, and he just carried his head.
When we arrived at Jinxiang Hall, the scene was completely different. The lights were as bright as daylight, and the interior was warm and luxurious. Li Xin was also inspired by the bright and atmospheric atmosphere created by the sound of chimes and golden drums.
The emperor walked onto the imperial throne in a dragon robe. When he sat down, he heard a "clang" sound, as if it was a musical music for the emperor's behavior. The civil and military ministers immediately bowed and bowed.
It was not yet time for Li Xin to speak. First, the Lord of Wu Yue came forward to congratulate the emperor on his recovery of the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun and offered generous tributes. The emperor happily rewarded ribbons, robes and other items, and issued an order to give a banquet in the palace, and to personally have a banquet with the Lord of Wu Yue.
The ministers were excited and had another high-sounding remark.
Li Xin had something to do in his heart, so he followed suit to deal with it. Even though he had not participated in the national affairs, when he saw the king of Wu Yue, he immediately understood: I'll just surrender!
At this time, he felt a little more confident. The Zhou emperor destroyed Shu, Tang, Han, Nanping and other countries, and now he recovered the lands of Youzhou. Wu and Yue came to offer land to surrender and persuade him to change his country's title to become the founding emperor. It seemed reasonable!
Moreover, when the king of Wu and Yue came to surrender today, the emperor saved money, food and life for war. He was happy that Li Xin's risk was a little smaller.
Of course, the Lord of Wu Yue only talked about going to Beijing to congratulate the people today, and did not say that he surrendered and offered land. But the Lord of Wu Yue had come to Tokyo, so he could go back? He dared to come because he was ready to surrender. Whether he was willing or not, the court would definitely ask him to hand over the Kingdom of Wu Yue. As long as the Lord of the Kingdom of Wu and Yue made a statement, he would not dare to resist with force in the country. Otherwise, the Great Zhou Dynasty would occupy the righteousness and be more justified in the name of helping the Lord to seek rebellion. It would be more difficult for the Lord of Wu and Yue to be tied together for a while.
However, Li Xin couldn't see these things, and the operation process would not be discussed in the Grand Court.
On the first day of every month and the fifteenth day of each month, it is a formality, showing royal majesty and allowing the ministers to see the emperor's health; almost no one talks about the serious matter on such occasions, and even some irrelevant praises.
And Li Xin feels that he is an exception today.
At this moment, a eunuch said in a long voice: "If you have something to report, you will leave the court if you have nothing to do!"
Li Xin gritted his teeth and stood up, and everyone's eyes immediately gathered on him. Li Xin said, "I am the envoy of Li Xin, please report to Your Majesty if you have any questions."
The eunuch glanced at him and retreated to the lower side of the imperial seat.
Li Xin bent down and looked at the ivory sign in his hand and shouted: "After the Tang Dynasty ended, through Liang, Tang, Jin, Han, and Zhou dynasties, the world split the land and divides the borders, and the Khitan invaded; Zhou Taizu established a country, and there were still many countries in the world. Although Taizu proclaimed himself emperor, he was actually one of the princes... Now Your Majesty destroyed Shu, Tang, Eastern Han, Southern Han and other countries, and established the world as one, and found a foundation; expel Khitan, restored China, and gained the country to be upright. I ask Your Majesty to revive the country..."
"Wow!" The ministers were in an uproar on the huge temple.
It seemed that the majority of officials who did not think about this matter were still very surprised. A little later, the hall gradually became quieter, and it was quieter than before, and people did not dare to make any sounds.
Without saying anything from above, Li Xin bowed and stood there waiting. He felt his scalp numb and his whole head was blank. He stood here and waited for the consequences.
At this moment, Guo Shao spoke in person: "Since I inherited the foundation of the Great Zhou Dynasty, this matter cannot be done. You must not talk about this matter again."
A moment later, the eunuch stepped forward and shouted: "Li Xin, you have made contributions to the construction of sea ships and the state. The officials value the most is the people who do practical things for the country. If you think of your great achievements, you will not cure your sins. It is the main thing to go to Jiangning Prefecture to present a Shanghai ship map, so you can do it yourself!"
When Li Xin heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly said, "I thank you for your kindness!"
...In public, he made suggestions to change the country's name and abandoned the country of Taimiao of the Great Zhou Dynasty! Although the emperor immediately refused, there was nothing wrong with those who said such words? All the civil and military officials in the court suddenly realized it!
This attitude is really too obvious. Even if the emperor is determined, it is not an exaggeration to be dismissed from office or imprisonment at the least, and to be cut off at the worst... In this situation, Guo Shao's food is relatively ugly, and there is a small reason, because he values talents like Li Xin who are determined to develop technology. He heard that he still lives in a broken yard and is unwilling to attack him.
Guo Shao’s achievements so far are too great, and no one dares to question his authority. Now he is easy to deal with and even disguises himself is extremely unscrupulous.
Moreover, Li Xin must be Wang Pu's person, and many people have even insisted that it was Wang Pu's instructions.
The first person to say is fine. The emperor cannot use the second person to perform the flag sacrifice. So for a while, all the generals joined in the fun, and there were many people who wrote the letter! He was determined to be the support of the dragon. Now no one wants to be stupid enough to fight against the royal family.
Once there are too many people, there will be endless reasons for Guo Shao to find another country name. As long as you are determined to find reasons and explanations for anything, you can always find it.
Everyone also understood Guo Shao very well: After all, if the country name is changed, it will be the founding emperor, and then it will be Taizu, and its status will be different; it can also be posthumously named Guo Shao's father and grandfather... Who wouldn't want to be glorious? Now that he is in the lineage of Taizu of Zhou, Guo Shao's ancestors cannot stand the status.
His close ministers of civil and military affairs were even more stressful. Anyway, they followed Guo Shao, and they could become heroes of the founding country after changing the country's name. Only the old ministers of the previous dynasty needed to wait and see.
...But another person's different idea was Fu Jinzhan. Fu Jinzhan's heart was turbulent at this time. She had known Guo Shao too much over the years. Guo Shao was "unfilial" and never felt his parents. Looking at Jinzhan, he was not very interested in glorifying his ancestors, and it was even more impossible to turn the country upside down for such a thing; he was not interested in whether he was the founding emperor. Anyway, Guo Shao only had the stability of power and authority.
Then he only has one motivation!
The woman beside Jinzhan was worried about her, and a palace woman said carefully: "If Your Majesty changes the name of the country, the name of the Empress..."
In their opinion, the biggest reason for Jinzhan's status in the palace was the late emperor and empress. If the Great Zhou Dynasty perished, wouldn't it be troublesome for the royal family to let the queen of the previous dynasty dominate the harem?
But Concubine Du said, "Of course the honorary title is still there. The queen is the first wife of the official family, and the queen is the queen's sister. What are you worried about?"
Some of the concubines and wives in the past said, "We also want the concubine to be peaceful, but fortunately there is a place to stand in the palace."
Fu Jinzhan heard it and felt that these people were braver now and they didn't dare to speak like this before. But she didn't care. If her reputation and majesty could not be suppressed, it would be like this.
Fu Jinzhan looked back and looked around, with a very light smile on her face: "Don't worry, if there is anything in the palace, I will let my sister take care of you, and it will be vain that you will serve me for so long."
Everyone immediately said, "I don't dare to think about myself, but I am thinking about you. The Queen respects the Queen the most and will definitely think about you."
Fu Jinzhan looked calm and calm: "I have taken the power and position in the palace indifferently, and I only want to live a peaceful and peaceful life. If there is any change in the court, it is out of place for me, a queen of the previous dynasty, to stay in the palace, and I will ask the official family to release him to his parents' home and live silently."
