Struggle in the early Tang Dynasty

The Tang Dynasty implemented the system of three provinces and six ministries, and the highest official of the Shangshu Province was the Shangshuling. Just because His Majesty Li Er had served as the Shangshuling, no one would be able to be the Shangshuling in the future. Became a Shangshu Zuo Servant!

What about Duke Qin?This is also the reason!

If there are still people who can become the Duke of Qin in the future, there is only one situation that is reasonable, and that is that His Majesty Li Er decides to pass on the throne one day.You can make the prince a Duke of Qin first, which is equivalent to blowing the air to the ministers in the court, and then making him the King of Qin and the Minister of the Order in a few days, and finally passing on the throne!

But now, Guo Ye has been conferred the Duke of Qin, what does this mean?

Especially when the crowd is raging and accusing Guo Ye of treason?Could it be that Guo Ye's desire to usurp the throne is clearly revealed?Just wait for Guo Ye to take over the imperial decree, arrest Guo Ye and behead him?

Of course Guo Ye also understood the power of Duke Qin's title. He was so frightened that his calf twisted a little, and said: "Mr. Qin is not suitable for a minister, and I dare not obey the imperial edict!"

Shun Gong said: "Duke Qin!"

Guo Ye waved his hands again and again, saying: "Don't dare to be, don't dare to be, Mr. Shun, please don't call me that, you are killing me!"

As soon as he stretched out his hand from his bosom, he took out a stack of money notes from Changlefang Big Bank!

"Mr. Shun, please tell Your Majesty that Guo Ye has not made any contributions, so there is no need to be promoted to a noble! The Duke of Pingyang is very good! Even if you don't want me to be the Duke of Pingyang, the Marquis of Yizhou can also consider it." , if it really doesn’t work, Uncle Yizhou, male from Longxi County... all of this can be discussed!"

"Qin Guogong, what are you talking about? According to your wishes, you will be renamed Yizhou Marquis and Longxi County Male. Is that still an increase in rank? Wouldn't that be demotion? What's the proper way?"

"Good demotion! Good demotion! You don't know that I, Guo Ye, became the Duke of Pingyang at a young age. I really feel uneasy and can't sleep well all night! If Your Majesty can demote my official, Then I can thank God!"

Eunuch Shun sighed and said, "You really don't intend to be this Duke of Qin?"

"Of course! I, Guo Ye, do not want to be the one from the bottom of my heart!"

"Your Majesty asked me to bring you a sentence. You can understand it. This is not considered an imperial decree, nor is it an oral order. It is just a sentence. Whether you listen or not is up to you!"

"Guo Ye respectfully listens to the oracle!"

Eunuch Shun cleared his throat, and said: "Mr. Qin is left over from my play. If I want to keep it, I can keep it for myself. I can give it to whoever I want! If I don't give it to you, no one is allowed to grab it from me. Whoever grabs it Whoever is treasonous; but if I want to give, whoever does not accept, even if it is unfavorable, unhappy, or joyful, then he will not give me face! I have been emperor for nine years, I have to see , who in the world dare not give me face?"

This is too unlike what the emperor can say, it is simply the tone of a gang boss, no wonder His Majesty Li Er declared in advance that it is not an imperial decree, nor is it a verbal order!If this sentence is really spread, His Majesty Li Er will be ashamed to be a man!

Guo Ye couldn't help but say something in his heart - Li Er Er is playing a hooligan!

Hooligans are not scary, but what is scary is that hooligans are educated. This time, the hooligans Guo Ye encountered were not only educated, but also emperors!

If he is unreasonable, no one can bear it!

Guo Ye said with a bitter face: "Eunuch Shun, do you really think I can be the Duke of Qin?"

Shun Gong said: "Have you figured it out? Decided to be the Duke of Qin?"

"Extending the head is also a knife, shrinking the head is also a knife, do you think I can still choose?"

Eunuch Shun also smiled wryly, and said, "I dare to ask you, how old are you this year?"

"Why are you asking this?"

"I'm just asking casually! It has nothing to do with His Majesty, you can answer it, and I don't blame you if you don't answer!"

"It's not a secret. The officials will find out if they check it! I'm 24 years old this year, and I'm going to be 25 soon!"

"Grandpa Qin is really young and promising! Young and promising!" Eunuch Shun slapped him twice, and then fell silent again!

What's the matter with this dead eunuch?Why is it so strange?

Guo Ye coughed, and said: "This decree has been announced, do you think we can sit in the living room..."

Eunuch Shun woke up like a dream, and said, "Don't be busy! We still have a third order!"

Chapter 1451 Three Imperial Edicts (3)

The third imperial edict of His Majesty Li Er is truly mediocre, completely within Guo Ye's expectation!Once the old lady died, Guo Ye's position as Minister of Rites would be lost, so he was ordered to Ding You immediately!

However, the meaning of sealing Ding You, the Duke of Qin, and Ding You, the former Duke of Pingyang County, is completely different!

If he was still Duke of Pingyang County, Ding You would have to return to his hometown, and the old lady would have to be buried with Guo Laohan in the end!Now that he is named the Duke of Qin, it is equivalent to His Majesty Li Er helping him to transfer his household registration!From now on, his home will be in Chang'an!

So Guo Ye didn't have to travel thousands of miles to transport the old lady's coffin back to Sichuan. The old lady should be buried in his fief, and later move Guo Laohan's grave here, and the husband and wife were buried together!

This can save a lot of trouble!

After reading His Majesty Li Er's will, Dong Shun coughed and said, "Your Majesty has sent someone to select your three hundred euphemistic households. Don't worry, they are all top-class households! In addition, His Majesty has bestowed Jiuyuan on you. There is no need to find another tomb for my wife!"

Except for the title of Lord Qin, which made Guo Ye's liver tremble in fright, His Majesty Li Er's other arrangements were really thoughtful. Guo Ye thanked him again!

Then Guo Ye asked hesitantly: "Eunuch Shun, Your Majesty doesn't have a fourth order, right?"

"What do you think? Others have received one imperial decree, and it must be said that it is a great fortune. You have received three at once, and you are not satisfied, and you want a fourth?"

"That's not what I meant. Well, this is not a place to talk, please serve tea in the living room!"

"By the way, Your Majesty really has something else to ask for you!"

Guo Yexin said that I knew that His Majesty Li Er had to explain something else, after all, this Qin Guogong is too weird!He said, "Eunuch Shun, please tell me!"

"Your Majesty asked you to finish the funeral for the old lady today, and see you in the palace tomorrow morning! He has something to ask for you!"

"According to the order!"

Eunuch Shun finished his work and got up to leave!

After all, this is a funeral, and it's not easy to keep someone, so I can only let him go!

As soon as Eunuch Shun left, the Pingyang County mansion was in chaos!

Although it is said that Guo Ye's Minister of Rites is gone, this is an old official rule, no one can avoid it, and Guo Ye is not at a disadvantage!

Although Guo Ye's Qin Guogong is a bit scary, judging from the performance of Eunuch Shun, His Majesty Li Er seems to have no evil intentions, and Guo Ye is still in the heart of the emperor!

All in all, Guo Ye's hurdle seems to have passed!

If it is said that Guo Ye is only a little psychologically uncomfortable about the loss of power, the coldness of the world that these house slave workers feel these days is even more intuitive!

In the past, when he left the mansion, he represented the Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites of the Tang Dynasty and the Duke of Pingyang County. Who would be rude to see them?Which mansion's servants met, how much face would they not be called brothers and sisters?It's good now, people don't take it seriously at all!why?Your master's official position is gone, so you are nothing, why are you on an equal footing with our family?

The most unbearable thing is that when I go out to do errands, I get cold eyes from others!The things that other people's houses can credit are not owed on credit when they hear that they belong to the government of Pingyang County!For goods that are in short supply, you just queue up to the front, and people will not sell them when they hear that they belong to the government of Pingyang County!Even if you go to a high-end restaurant to book a table, they will frown when they hear that it belongs to the government of Pingyang County, and try their best to let you go to another place!It seems that once they go, they will bring mold to them!

Now, our Pingyang County Mansion, ah, no, the Qin State Mansion is shaking again, let's see how dare you stab us men!

What makes them most happy is that now Guo Ye doesn't have to go back to his hometown in Sichuan!If Guo Ye returns to his original place, the imperial court will have to take back the house in Suzaku House, and the family servants will lose their jobs!

Therefore, these house slaves are very happy now, running around to tell each other, cheering and jumping, it is more lively than the festival!

Guo Ye frowned. Damn, this is my mother's funeral. The whole family was beaming with joy. He snorted coldly and said, "Stop arguing, what should we do?"
