Chapter 141: Wasn't it written by Zong'er?
Even Yang Xie had to admit that Li Zong is indeed talented.
In other words, Li Zong’s idea is that he can’t keep up.
Fortunately, the emperor has not yet told him about the Spring River Moon Night, otherwise, not only will he be shocked again, but he may even be trembling in the entire capital's poetry circle.
Now, the emperor is planning a major event behind him, how can he ensure that Li Zong is loyal to the crown prince?
Since ancient times, marriage has been the most commonly used method.
and……
The benefits of marriage are much greater than you think.
Just like Yang Xie, the reason why he can become the Grand Marshal now is because he sent his daughter to the palace.
Daughters were definitely a very good tool in ancient times, used to maintain family relationships.
The combination of Su Mansion and Li Mansion, which is Li Zong and Ying'er, is actually similar.
only……
Compared with this kind of utilitarianism, it is not that strong.
However, those real political marriages can determine a person's status in the court.
What Li Zong lacks now is his position in the court, but he can't wait.
If he had one or two years to live, he would probably be able to give Li Zong a chance to make contributions little by little.
But now, due to time, it can only be achieved through this method that Li Zong can not only have a kinship relationship but also ensure his loyalty. At the same time, he can also use this relationship to show Li Zong whether he can take another step forward.
And if it is based on past practice, Li Zong should have called the Prince Consort and the Duwei.
But if that is the case, this will actually lower Li Zong's status.
therefore……
This time the emperor chose not to take up a son-in-law for the princess. In order to show his grace, he planned to marry the princess to Li Zong, and it didn't matter if he was a concubine.
But of course, a big event like this naturally needs to be discussed with Li’s father.
at this time……
In the emperor's inner palace, the emperor talked about this idea.
His face was a little pale at this time, but even more pale, but it was undoubtedly Li's father.
All I can say is...
Isn’t this a force forcing you to do? Ying'er has only been less than half a year after marrying Li Zong.
If you take a concubine for Zong'er at this time, what do Ying'er thinks?
This is not because Li’s father has some modern thinking. He just felt that if he had not said hello in advance, it would be difficult for anyone to accept it.
Although Ying'er is not his biological child, she is also her daughter-in-law.
The emperor coughed, "Is this awkward?"
The expression on Li's father's face was indeed very difficult at this time.
The emperor said: "It is normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines. And as long as you nod your father, how can he disagree?"
This is a common mentality for those who are superiors, and then he continued: "I did this, but I just wanted to bring you and me closer, as well as the relationship between the monarch and the prince. Secondly, your family background is too shallow. If you accept this, I will give you a fiefdom and let Li Zong take charge of the eight counties in the suburbs of Beijing."
This is a bit too much. Although these eight counties must be gathered here and there, and they can't be considered true. After all, that is also a suburb of Beijing. In terms of wealth, other places cannot compare. However, this is actually not the most important thing. The most important thing is that Li Zong can take charge of a certain military power.
This is a qualitative leap. If it is obtained seriously, then Li's father must be so happy that he can't stop talking, but the problem is...
Li's father said, "Your Majesty, is Zong'er really that important?"
He had to ask helplessly.
The emperor also looked at Li's father, and everyone said that no one knew his son, but he didn't believe that Li's father didn't know, so he suddenly changed his mind and asked directly: "Then Li Xiyan, do you know the crime!"
Father Li thought to himself, why is he guilty?
The emperor said, "I sent someone to Jiangdu, and news has been sent back from Jiangdu that Qilin's talent is purely false. Since that's the case, is this considered a deception?"
Li's father wanted to retort, but that was not what I said, and it was even more impossible that Zong'er said.
It was Zhang Gongchuo and Teng Sui from the Taishi Office that he could have defrauded the emperor on his head.
Father Li: "Your Majesty! I have never said that Zong'er is a talented Qilin, and I believe that Zong'er will definitely not say that himself."
The emperor said, "Since that's the case, you know that your son is talented but doesn't report it. What's wrong? I have issued similar edicts many times to ask you, those of you, to recommend talented people to the court."
Father Li said again: "That is not within the duty of the minister. Your Majesty, your Majesty, you should punish those Zhongzheng officials."
Emperor: "Then what you mean is my fault? Cough cough cough cough cough!"
When the emperor coughed smoothly, he still coughed up blood from his handkerchief, but he hid it well.
Li's father said, "Of course I don't mean this, but Zong'er probably cannot take on this great responsibility. Zong'er is the best. I am not good at the Four Books and Five Classics, but I don't understand the way of governing the country at all. How can I take on this great responsibility like this?"
However, when Li's father said this, the emperor caught the handle.
He plucked Li Zong's poems and essays directly from the table on the left and dropped them on the ground, allowing Li's father to read them himself.
Unfortunately, Li Zong's imperial examination system was burned by him, otherwise...
However, after he finished reading Li Zong's "ambition", he would not be in a hurry to tell him slowly.
Li's father didn't know that Li Zong actually wrote "It's like the flower appearance of the Kao". Is this written by his son? And the moonlit night in the spring river is even more excessive! He dared to make 100% guarantee that this could never be written by his son.
But the emperor said, "These are all written by your son. 'The great repent is in the same style as the day, and it soars up to 90,000 miles'. His ambitions are already written in poetry."
Li's father thought secretly that he was talking nonsense, just like he said he was going to join the army, but he still didn't go in the end.
How can children take things seriously if they just talk about?
But if this is passed to Your Majesty, the situation will be different again.
"I think this was not written by Zong'er?" Li's father said authentically.
The main reason is that the Spring River Flower Moon Night is too much, and he doesn't believe that his son can write such things. Moreover, it cannot be ruled out that His Majesty was forcibly charged with indetermination.
However, the emperor calmly said, "This is indeed brought back from Jiangdu. If you don't think about yourself, you should also think about your Goro."
After hearing this, Li's father was silent and said...
He actually didn't know much about his son.
Li's father said, "After the one who got married just half a year ago, isn't it a big deal for Your Majesty to do this?"
