The first thousand one hundred and seventy-five chapters
Li Xuan was already crazy with joy.
Watching him stand up and sit down, sit down and stand up again, with an uncontrollable expression of excitement on his face, Li Yi suddenly felt a little sorry for Li Xuan's son who didn't even have a name until now.
His name is Emperor.
Queen Wang Qin gave birth to two princesses, and concubine Shen Su gave birth to a princess. Li Xuan's hair was almost turning gray.
If Xiaorui was the prince, Li Yi felt that Li Xuan would have named himself the Supreme Emperor by now.
Li Xuan announced the news of establishing the legitimate son of the queen as the crown prince the next day. If his youngest son could not even crawl, the edict of establishing the legitimate son would be the edict of passing the throne.
Li Han was obviously relieved, and Li Yi could clearly feel that he walked much more briskly.
Li Han is seventeen years old this year, which is definitely considered young.
Young people tend to make mistakes and do not think comprehensively. Most of the time, they can only see the surface.
Li Xuan's prince didn't even have teeth. Even if he was raised according to the standards of an emperor, it would be at least ten or even twenty years before he could take charge of his own affairs.
Li Xuan can't wait ten or twenty years.
Therefore, before Wang Qin gave birth to the prince, Li Xuan still wanted to save face, and would take all factors into consideration, and would not pass the throne to Li Han on a whim.
Now, he will not pass the throne to Li Han, but His Highness King Jin cannot run away.
Because the prince is still young, when the emperor is experiencing the sufferings of the people and patrolling privately incognito, he needs help around him...
Seeing Li Han talking to Dragon Boat Festival with a smile on his face, Li Yi couldn't bear to break his sweet dream, so he let him sleep a little longer.
This year's Dajiao meeting will not be on the first day of the first lunar month.
Those days were the Queen's due date, which was considered a first-class event in the royal family, so the date of the court meeting was naturally postponed.
Now it is a double happiness.
Li Yi originally didn't want to attend the court meeting, but he wanted to see what Mingzhu looked like wearing a phoenix crown and phoenix robe. She would only wear that kind of clothes when going to court.
Shouning, who is in charge of the Women's Federation and many colleges in Kyoto, will also appear at the court meeting.
The states of Qi, Wu, and Zhao sent envoys respectively. This time, they did not send envoys casually, but with state gifts. This should be the peak of Jingguo's diplomacy in the history. .
"Your Highness!"
"His Royal Highness Prince Jing."
"See His Highness Prince Jing!"
…
In the distance from the palace gate to the Li Zheng Hall, the officials Li Yi met, some whom he knew and some who did not, bowed to him one after another.
General Xue sighed and said: "I still remember that you stood here for the first time a few years ago, but you were just a young boy. In just a few years, you have already stood in front of us who have stood in the court for dozens of years. The old guy in front..."
Several old generals do not go to court on weekdays, but they will not miss the annual court meeting.
Old General Ma stroked his beard, and a look of reminiscence appeared on his face, "We old guys only noticed you because of heaven's punishment. I didn't expect, I didn't expect, that you kid was hiding more than just one person." Punishment..., compared to you, we are really old..."
Li Yi smiled and said: "Since ancient times, the waves from behind hit the waves before, and the waves before died on the beach. It's normal, normal..."
General Xue suddenly looked at him, shook his head, and said, "You have changed a lot over the years, but your face has always been as good as that of old Ma..."
"Xue, in terms of reputation, I'm still a foot behind you..."
…
Li Yixiao watched the two of them start to fight each other again, and then looked back.
The position he was in was at the front of the court. Li Xuan had just sent someone to bring a chair over, but he refused.
Looking over from his position, there were more than a hundred civil and military officials above the main hall.
They stood neatly, with smiles on their faces, mixed with a hint of pride and pride.
Outside the temple behind them, there were still countless figures.
No matter how big the Li Zheng Palace was, it could not accommodate the officials who went to Beijing to attend the imperial meeting.
This is Jingguo...
The Jingguo that he didn't have any sense of belonging to at the beginning, but now, step by step, he has completely integrated into Jingguo.
At a certain moment, all the officials suddenly leaned forward at the same time and said loudly: "Your Majesty, welcome the eldest princess!"
After Li Xuan sat down, he raised his hands and said calmly: "Your Majesty, no courtesy..."
Then there are some etiquette procedures that should be followed by a great court meeting.
"Since ancient times, emperors have succeeded to the throne and established their own power to control the whole region. They must establish the Yuan Dynasty to establish the foundation of the country, so that the Mianzong Society can rest without borders. I have been following the great sentiments, working day and night, and looking up to my ancestor Mollie...,
The legitimate son, Li Ze, has an extraordinary appearance and is destined by the will of heaven. I hereby strictly abide by the first edict, carry out the ceremony, obey the public opinion, and sincerely inform the heaven and earth, the ancestral temple, and the country, confer a treasure on the book, and establish him as the crown prince, enthroned in the East Palace..."
This is the first imperial edict announced by the eunuch at the great court meeting.
Li Xuan's desire to shirk responsibility has been going on for several years. The little guy named Li Ze became the prince on the first day after his birth and became the future master of Jingguo.
He has only been in this world for twelve hours, and he has already been praised to the heavens by Li Xuan. Words like "talent, hero" and so on are endless...
All the officials were helpless, and there were countless people with bitter looks on their faces.
How could they, the ministers, not guess His Majesty's thoughts?
However, the queen finally gave birth to her legitimate son, and no one would raise any objection at this time.
The second imperial edict was to expand the number of members of the State Council from the original fifteen to twenty.
The State Council was an institution established several years ago at the initiative of the eldest princess.
The members of this organization are composed of two prime ministers, six ministers, imperial censors, Jing Zhaoyin, and several important officials in the court.
Among them, there is also the name of Jin Wang Li Han.
Whenever something difficult to decide is encountered, no one can have exclusive power. The members of the State Council must discuss and study the decision together before reporting it to His Majesty or the Princess.
His Majesty has no objection to this proposal.
In recent years, His Majesty and the eldest princess rarely fail to approve any decision made by the State Council.
To a certain extent, the existence of the State Council allows His Majesty to be at peace with his lazy administration. This has made officials doubt His Majesty's intentions more than once. However, this move is indeed beneficial to the country, and everyone really can't say anything about it.
objection.
Everyone who is a member of the State Council can be a prime minister. From then on, everyone in the court will aim to join the State Council...
The imperial edict to establish the crown prince and increase the number of members of the State Council can be regarded as the two most important things.
Next, there is a lengthy, but it is the official work report that everyone likes to listen to.
Within these two hours, they will know the changes in Jingguo's military, economy, politics, population, system and other aspects in the past year.
Jingguo is making progress every year. They have natural punishments and cannons to intimidate other countries. The national treasury is getting full day by day, and various new policies that are beneficial to the people are constantly being introduced...
This is the result of a year of hard work by all of them here.
These achievements will be written on the imperial list and posted on the palace wall one by one, making them transparent and open to the people of Jingguo.
Li Yi actually doesn't have much interest in these.
He looked at Mingzhu sitting above him and thought to himself, when he leaves in a few days, he must remind her to bring these clothes with her... 8)
