Chapter 390 390 Tips (nine updates)
Zhang Shoufu felt a surge of enthusiasm in his heart, his blood was racing, he was excited and excited.
He was the first to bow his head and bowed respectfully.
Immediately afterwards, Yang Xuanshan and other pavilion elders behind him also bowed their heads, showing their submission and approval.
After a cup of tea, when they walked out of Qianqing Palace, they heard the black cat behind them meow again, and everyone suddenly felt as if they were waking up from a dream. From one world to another in a few steps.
Everyone broke out in a cold sweat.
Zhang Shoufu was still calm and steady, while Yang Xuanshan had already wiped the cold sweat with his sleeves, still feeling frightened.
Gu Jue clearly didn't say harsh words just now, let alone order to punish them, but just by looking at him, there was a kind of intimidation without anger. It was a kind of coercion from a superior, which made people cannot help but surrender, and even more Don't dare to make mistakes.
Zhang Shoufu turned around and glanced at the Qianqing Palace in the rear, feeling a little emotional and a little sad. A thought came to his mind: Emperor Renzong and the Queen Mother Yin were both gentle people. Who does King Chen look like?
"Oops." Yang Xuanshan, who was walking down the white marble steps, suddenly stopped and then remembered, "I also have a tip for the draft..." He originally wanted to ask Gu Jue about when the draft would be held after he ascended the throne.
Generally speaking, national mourning lasts for three months. Three months after the death of the late emperor, the people can hold weddings and funerals. If the new emperor wanted to honor the late emperor, he would have to wait a year before mentioning the draft. Rules are dead, but people are alive. In history, there are many new emperors who had no children, but the period of filial piety was shortened due to the repeated entreaties of the officials.
Gu Jue was different. The late Emperor Gu Lang was Gu Jue's eldest brother. Gu Jue only had to mourn for a hundred days, which meant that the period of national mourning was almost over.
Therefore, Yang Xuanshan felt that he had to ask about this matter in advance so that the Ministry of Rites could make arrangements.
Especially Gu Jue, who is already in his early twenties and still weak at the knees. If he has no heirs, the whole court will be uneasy and it is easy to shake people's hearts.
In order to stabilize the court, the new emperor must have an heir as soon as possible. The eldest son is of course the first choice, but even if there is no fish or shrimp, a young prince must be born first.
Yang Xuanshan turned his head and asked Zhang Shoufu: "Master Zhang, do you think I should go back and ask King Chen again?"
After what had happened just now, Yang Xuanshan was in awe of the new emperor who was about to ascend the throne, and he did not dare to speak nonsense again, lest he would cause trouble.
Before Zhang Shoufu could answer, Prince Li had already taken the lead and said, "Don't just sit back and worry about it."
He only said this and walked down the white marble steps.
Zhang Shoufu also nodded, expressing his agreement with Prince Li's idea.
Yang Xuanshan paused his thoughts and said with a smile: "The ritual system of the Queen has to be adjusted, and there are more things to be busy with next. It will be the same after King Chen ascends the throne."
The etiquette had to be revised as soon as possible. Thinking about it, Yang Xuanshan felt that one was bigger than the other. It was conceivable that next, the Rites Yamen would have to work overtime again, and he would have to live a life of three visits without entering the house.
Several pavilion elders were talking and walking towards Qianqing Gate.
Facing them was a young man wearing a straight jacket with light green and dark stripes. The thin young man had a high ponytail and walked towards them from the Qianqing Gate in front.
The thirteen-year-old boy has a youthfulness that is different from that of an adult. His figure is unusually tall and straight, like a lush sycamore tree, full of vitality and heroic appearance.
Even Prince Li and the cabinet ministers glanced at the young man. They didn't know the young man, so they didn't pay much attention to him.
Chu Yunyi also came here because of Xijue's affairs, and came here specifically to express his gratitude.
He also noticed the looking eyes of Prince Li and others, but didn't pay attention, he just wanted to see it anyway. He had something on his mind, so he was a little uneasy. When he passed by them, he glanced at them again and his eyes flickered.
When Chu Yunyi walked outside the Qianqing Palace, six guards in golden clothes guarding him under the eaves saluted him.
The current Jin Yiwei has been taken over by Pei Linye, and the personnel have been changed by 70 to 80%. The Jin Yiwei who can serve as personal guards in the palace are all people who were transferred to the Jin Yiwei from the palace guards and the Xuanjia Army.
Chu Yunyi lived in Prince Chen's Mansion for a long time and went in and out of Xuanjia Camp every day. Naturally, he knew a lot of people, including these six Jinyi Guards.
If it was someone else, they would have to wait outside, wait for the chamberlain to go in and make the announcement, and then come out to convey Gu Jue's intention. However, Chu Yunyi's treatment was obviously different. While Jingfeng walked in quickly to make the announcement, a Jin Yiwei was already leading him. He entered the main hall.
This scene also fell into the eyes of Yang Xuanshan, who was looking back not far away.
Yang Xuanshan stopped again, so Zhang Shoufu and others also stopped, and also noticed that Chu Yunyi had received special treatment, and everyone's curiosity arose in their hearts.
Yang Xuanshan curiously asked the young **** who led them the way: "Eunuch Xu, do you know who the young master was just now?"
The young chamberlain showed an overly friendly smile, his eyes narrowed as he smiled, and replied with a high-pitched voice, "Yang Shangshu, this is the eldest son of the Chu family."
The expressions of Yang Xuanshan, Prince Li and others changed again and became a little strange.
The eldest son of the Chu family is also the brother-in-law of King Chen and the future uncle-in-law of the country.
Moreover, today, the news that King Chen issued a letter to let Chu Yunyi inherit the title of Marquis of Yongding has spread throughout the capital. Immediately, someone went to inquire about the newly promoted Marquis of Yongding, Chu Yunyi.
To outsiders, it doesn't matter who Chu Yunyi's biological mother is. The key is that King Chen has the intention to recruit this brother-in-law. Since the year later, Chu Yunyi has joined the Xuanjia camp, and today he has inherited the title. King Chen's intention It’s not difficult to figure out either.
Chu Yunyi was absent-minded and unaware of the commotion behind him.
After crossing the high threshold of the main hall and walking forward for a while, his steps became slower and slower, and he felt very complicated.
In the past half month, he spent most of his time in Fengtai camp.
On the day he was forced to conceive, his brother-in-law told him to go see it with his own eyes before sending him away. He followed his brother-in-law's advice and followed Su Mubai to see it with his own eyes, witnessing the **** battle with his own eyes. The war saw countless soldiers drowned in mountains of corpses and seas of blood.
This shocking scene was deeply engraved in his heart, making him understand what war was and what his brother-in-law meant by what he said at that time.
After that tragic battle, he still followed Su Mubai. Although he was not an official Xuanjia soldier, he followed the Xuanjia army in the next few days to strictly guard the capital and patrol to maintain stability. He was also appointed by Su Mubai to have a small team. As an errand, he was responsible for searching people entering and exiting the North City Gate, and also caught members of Kang Hongda's party trying to leave the city.
Just thinking of the scenes at that time, Chu Yunyi still felt excited. At that time, Yun Zhan praised him for his careful observation, so that he could find clues from those people who were trying to disguise themselves and leave the city.
During these days, Chu Yunyi has been living a very fulfilling life.
In the meantime, he only went back to the Chu family once when he heard that his father Chu Lingxiao had suffered a stroke the day before yesterday, and went there in a hurry; and then today, he learned the news that he was going to attack the prince.
Chu Yunyi's hand was still holding on to the book-making method, tightly and tightly.
He never thought that he would get the title of Marquis of Yongding. All he always thought about was to make achievements on his own.
However, he got this title inexplicably, which should have belonged to Shen Yunmu. Until he walked outside the door curtain leading to the study, Chu Yunyi was still a little confused.
He took a deep breath, sorted out his complicated and confusing emotions, and went in through the curtain.
Chu Yunyi originally came to see Gu Jue, so when he saw Shen Qianchen also there, he was startled at first.
His surprise was different from Zhang Shoufu and others just now. After all, he knew best that his sister and brother-in-law were deeply in love, so it was not unusual for his sister to be here.
Now that Shen Qianchen was here, he simply decided to talk to his sister directly.
So, after someone obediently bowed to his sister and brother-in-law, he said bluntly: "Sister, I don't want this title."
Shen Qianchen: "..."
Gu Jue: "..."
Gu Jue didn't say anything, but Shen Qianchen laughed stupidly at this kid. He felt that he had been following Su Mubai for half a month and had not made any progress... No, Su Mubai himself has been stupid recently, how can he care about Chu Yun? Yi.
Alas, no matter how stupid her brother is, she can only accept and teach him.
At this moment, Shen Qianchen suddenly felt that she had a long way to go. After all, she had a younger brother below her.
"If you don't want the title, who will give it to you?" Shen Qianchen asked with a smile.
A smile appeared on her face. Although her smile was so bright and she was more delicate than flowers, it made Chu Yunyi's heart tremble for no reason.
Chu Yunyi gritted his teeth and replied: "Give it to Brother Mu."
"Brother Mu's surname is not Chu." Shen Qianchen retorted gently and deftly.
Chu Yunyi: "..."
Chu Yunyi's expression was dull and he was stunned for a moment before he reacted.
Yes, he also forgot about it.
Because her sister is still a sister and her brother is still a brother, Chu Yunyi completely forgot about Shen Qianchen and Shen Yunmu changing their surnames to "Shen".
Regarding this stupid brother, Shen Qianchen decided to shorten the process of getting tired. To make a long story short: "Everyone has his own ambitions. If you really don't want it, don't want it. You can go to the army and work **** your own."
Shen Qianchenyun smiled lightly. She didn't like to force others to do anything. A mere rank is not enough for her to take seriously.
Chu Yunyi's eyes lit up, bright and radiant.
He also felt that this was good. With his young master from the Chu family, there was nothing he couldn't do.
From Chu Yunyi's perspective, his discussion with his sister had come to an end, and then he turned his burning eyes to Gu Jue.
Gu Jue: "..."
Gu Jue originally wanted to watch his little girl discipline her younger brother, but he didn't expect it to happen this way. He didn't know whether to feel funny or helpless.
Hey, who made this kid her brother?
Probably only her stupid brother could turn the little girl into a fried cat.
Gu Jue curled his lips, and he was in a happy mood, so his patience became better. He cleared his throat and said, "Do you know that the title of the Chu family is not easy to come by?"
Chu Yunyi: "..."
Gu Jue continued: "The ancestor of the Chu family, Chu Yuanhong, was also a hero. He was born in a peasant family. He was drafted into the army because of the Chidi attack sixty years ago. It took him twenty years to become a general from an ordinary soldier. Chu Yuanhong had three sons, all of whom died in the battle, leaving only a few young grandchildren."
"The Emperor Xuanzong at that time was also impressed by the loyalty of the Chu family, so he named Chu Yuanhong the Marquis of Yongding."
The titles of a military general's family are all earned with the blood and lives of the family's children and **** military exploits. Only in this way can they be kind to future generations.
Once upon a time, the ancestors of the Chu family produced good men with blood and ambition. Unfortunately, the following generations were not as good as the previous ones. By Chu Lingxiao's generation, they were almost useless.
To put it harshly, if it weren't for Shen Qianchen, Gu Jue wouldn't have even looked at the Chu family.
Gu Jue smiled and peeled off a loquat and fed it to Shen Qianchen's mouth, then continued to peel off another loquat.
"..." Chu Yunyi listened to Gu Jue's words carefully and clenched his fists together.
This was the first time anyone had told him this.
His lips were pressed into a straight line, and Gu Jue was still saying slowly: "Brother Yi, you should also be able to see clearly that the Chu family has been going downhill for several generations."
Chu Yunyi said softly "Hmm".
The Chu family's decline is the fault of the clan members and the fault of those who raided the nobility.
After the reconciliation between his aunt and his father, Chu Yunyi also figured out that his grandfather could no longer afford the position.
Gu Jue pointed out with an extremely sharp tone: "I know you want to fight for a future. It's not difficult, but do you know who your sister is?"
Chu Yunyi was still immersed in the realization that the sun was setting in the Chu family. Before his mind could turn around, he was a little confused when asked by Gu Jue. He blinked stupidly and almost didn't say, Shen Qianchen?
Fortunately, he didn't say anything, because Shen Qianchen was one step ahead of him and pointed at himself first: "Your sister is me, and your brother-in-law is him." As she said that, she pointed at Gu Jue again.
Shen Qianchen's smile was as bright as the scorching summer sun, and he said in an infuriating tone: "At that time, everyone will say that your future and your title are all because you have a sister, so you will end up like this." Opportunities that many others don’t have.”
Shen Qianchen happily cuddled up on Gu Jue's arm. He felt that teaching his younger brother was too tiring, so it was better to be angry.
