Chapter 28: The Opportunity for Performance Comes
Li Yang got up early today, but dressed up specifically. After all, this was his first morning court since he started the mansion and became the prime minister, so today he wore a mountain crown, a court robes and a ribbon, which was very formal.
With the news from the palace gate, Li Yang strode into the Qilin Hall, and behind him was Li You, a commander of the Yulin Commander, and looked very awesome.
Everyone's eyes were attracted by the court uniforms on Li Yang's body. The Qin system stipulated that black clothes were the best, so Qin Shihuang wore black court uniforms. It was also stipulated that officials of third rank or above wore green robes, while ordinary people wore white robes.
Although Li Yang's court uniform was green, he had black lace embroidered on the cuffs, collars, etc. So he wore a black lace dress, which naturally looked very eye-catching among the green robes and green robes.
Of course, Li Yang's court robes with black lace were also the honor that Ying Zheng relied on him yesterday on the day of his opening.
However, what Li Yang didn't know was that the black lace court uniform was only worn on the day of opening the palace. There was actually no need to deliberately make himself appear more noble than others when he went to court on weekdays.
But Li Yang doesn’t understand, who said he is a time traveler?
Since the emperor sent Zhao Gao to the court robes yesterday, this court robes have lace, which is much more pleasing to the green robes, so of course they look good in them.
However, when he walked into the hall with this outfit, more people looked at him with disdain.
Although you don’t have your court uniform with black lace embroidered clothes, and although you were favored by the emperor before today, now you are about to end. What’s the point of being so good?
Therefore, when everyone saw his self-righteous and proud look, they despised him in their hearts.
Fortunately, Li Yang's reputation for being frivolous has long been deeply rooted in people's hearts, so although everyone despises him, everyone thinks it is normal for him to wear this court uniform in the morning court. This is his style.
Li Yang is not a fool, and when he entered the palace, he naturally felt that today is no better than before, because no one flattered him today.
It seems that Li You is right. These idiots really think that the official position is over today.
Thinking of this, Li Yang cursed in his heart, then smiled and said, "You are here early!"
Everyone also smirked and bowed, "My Lord Zhongcheng!"
Then, everyone felt that they had given up a spacious road, allowing Li Yang to pass proudly, and finally stood in front of all officials and the center, because he was the Prime Minister of the Central Committee.
Li Yang stood in the center and smiled and bowed to the two prime ministers on both sides: "Feng Xiang, it's so early for Li Xiang!"
Feng Quji and Li Si also quickly bowed and said dawn.
However, at this time, the two of them seemed a little sarcastic and unhappy, as if they were not thinking about saying hello.
Feng Quji was thinking that this guy seemed really stupid. Even the civil and military ministers in the court knew that he was about to be in trouble. He himself didn't know anything. He couldn't help but wonder whether to remind him in his heart.
When Li Si saw Li Yang laughing at this moment, he looked like a little silly monk, and he was confused and felt a little confused.
He was very puzzled, so he turned around and looked at Li You who was standing behind Lieban, but only to see that his son had a confused expression at this moment.
Didn’t my son tell him that there would be a big disaster today?
Li Si was a little confused and was about to remind Li Yang, but suddenly he heard the sound of "Emperor coming to the court!" Then he saw the First Emperor walking in from the back hall, following Zhao Gao and the young master Fusu who had just returned to the court.
When the First Emperor sat down, all the civil and military officials bowed together and bowed together: "The emperor has been ten thousand years, and the Qin has been ten thousand years."
Emperor Ying Zheng waved his hand, and everyone immediately consciously arranged the left and right.
The hall was silent, and everyone held their breath, waiting to welcome the emperor's wrath.
but……
What they waited for was when they saw the emperor getting up and walked down, and went straight to Li Yang. They looked extremely concerned and asked with concern: "Zhongcheng, I heard that the remnants of Chu State assassinated you yesterday, were you injured?"
"……………” Everyone was stunned. Look at me, look at you, and the civil and military officials in the court were boasting each other.
What is this... what's going on?
Why didn't the emperor get angry, and he was so concerned about this person...
Could it be... the emperor still doesn't know the content of the "Public Law" published by this guy?
Li Yang was also very moved by the emperor's concern and replied: "Thank you for your concern. Fortunately, General Li tried his best to protect him yesterday, and with the people's guardians, I was not injured."
"It's good if you have nothing to do, it's good if you have nothing to do." Ying Zheng nodded and smiled, breathed a sigh of relief, then patted Li Yang's back of his hand, returned to the hall, and turned his eyes to Li You below, and praised: "Li You, you tried your best to protect the Chief Executive yesterday, which shows your loyalty and courage. I am very happy. I decided to upgrade your title to one level, and you will be the best master!"
"……………” Li You was shocked.
He was rewarded with protecting Li Zhongcheng and promoted him to a higher level...
Shouldn’t the emperor kill Li Zhongcheng?
This...it's completely different from what I imagined!
Moreover, what made Li You even more incredible was that this matter was actually hit by Li Zhongcheng!
Happiness came too quickly, like a tornado, and Li Yu was a little dazed at this moment.
You should know that the young master is a high-ranking title, a twenty-fifth-ranking title, and is ranked as the fifteenth-ranking title, and is the same as the nine ministers.
What does it mean? Even if Li You is not one of the nine ministers, as long as he gets the title, his identity is equal to that of the nine ministers. When he sees the nine ministers, he does not have to be etiquette from the subordinates.
Although his father Li Si was the left prime minister and was highly valued by the emperor, Li You was far from Feng Jie, the son of the right prime minister Feng Quji.
Feng Jie was in charge of the censor, the position was the Minister of the Supreme Court, the silver seal and the green ribbon, which was equivalent to the deputy prime minister.
Li You was just a county magistrate, with a title of right. But now, because of Li Yang, he not only promoted the position of guards in the Yulin, but also promoted the title to the young master today, which was a surprise surprise for Li You.
Speaking of which, Li Si was also stunned when he heard the emperor's gift, and was very surprised, and at the same time he was extremely surprised. Seeing that Li You were still stunned, he hurriedly reminded: "Li You, why don't you thank you now!"
"Thank you... Thank you!" Li You then reacted from a trance, stood out from the queue, and hurriedly bowed to thank him.
Ying Zheng nodded, and at the same time, he reminded Li You: "Zhongcheng is a lucky star and blessing in the Qin Dynasty, and it is also an important task for reforming and strengthening the country. Next time, you will not be able to make any mistakes. You must ensure the safety of Zhongcheng."
Li You glanced at his father Li Si, and saw his father nodding slightly, Li You quickly responded: "Yes! My subordinates must do their best to protect the safety of the Chief Secretary and protect the new law with all their might. There will never be any mistakes."
Ying Zheng nodded with satisfaction.
Seeing this scene, everyone was a little confused.
Is this the emperor still not knowing about the Public Law? Or is it the emperor still not knowing about the Public Law?
If you knew the content of the Public Law, how could Your Majesty not be furious?
Just when everyone was suspicious, they heard Ying Zheng ask, "He Zhang, how is the progress of Afang Palace?"
He Zhang was the general of the Shaofu, and was responsible for public construction affairs such as the palace. The officials under the jurisdiction include the Shishi Order, the Dongyuan Master Zhang, the head of the Dongyuan Master Zhang, the left school order, the right school order, the front school order, the back school order, and the lieutenant colonel. The Shishi Order was responsible for building stones, the Dongyuan Master Zhang, the carpenter, the head of the Dongyuan Master Zhang, the head of the big wood, and the five schools were responsible for construction. And the Afang Palace was responsible for He Zhang, the Shaofu Palace.
When everyone heard the emperor ask about the progress of Afang Palace, they immediately knew that Li Yang was going to be finished. The emperor was indeed most concerned about these national projects.
Suddenly, everyone looked at He Zhang, the general’s Shaofu.
He Zhang quickly left the list and said, "Report to Your Majesty, the previous corvee service orders have not arrived on the basis of the number of the number of servants in various counties. All the places say that there is no one to charge, so... this leads to insufficient staff in Afang, and the progress... is also very slow."
When the previous Confessional man named Liu saw that the time for his performance was up, he immediately went out and said, "Your Majesty, there are thousands of people under the rule of the Qin Dynasty, so how could there be no one? According to the ministers, these are all shirks from local officials below and they are not credible."
Lang is an official to be selected, there are counselors who evaluate state affairs, and there are central and ministers who accompany the emperor's carriage. There are no fixed personnel, and there are many people who are often taught. These people are usually taken from the children of officials, such as ministers and other bureaucrats. On the one hand, they are the emperor's entourage, and on the other hand, they learn government affairs. This is an important way to become an official during the Qin and Han dynasties.
It is precisely because of this reason that in order to gain the appreciation of the emperor, the officials will try their best to show themselves in front of the emperor to get the opportunity to serve the real power.
In Liu Yilang's opinion, the emperor's question about Afang progress is enough to show that the emperor is the most concerned about Afang project, and it is naturally the easiest to appreciate when he meets his preferences and offers advice to the emperor.
Sure enough, after hearing this, Ying Zheng nodded slightly and said, "What should I do if I follow Liu Yilang?"
