Establishing a crown prince is a major national event. Although King Zhou is the longest-lived, gentle and virtuous man, it can be said that the people want to be in charge of the East Palace, but he should not call the world so hastily, let alone seal it in Shaanxi with a simple call.

The intention of the Son of Heaven is to bring the king of Zhou back to Beijing, and then he will issue an edict to the Quartet to perform the grand ceremony of establishing the crown prince.After entrusting the state affairs to the king of Zhou, he can go to Mount Tai to enshrine Zen with peace of mind. After returning to Beijing, the prince will also share some government affairs.

Since the crown prince has not yet been formally established, Huan Ling's title will not be in the name of the eldest brother of the princess, but in the name of military merit.When the king of Zhou returns to Beijing and establishes a crown prince and concubine, the Ministry of Rites will add titles and false titles to his family.

The three cabinet elders understood His Majesty's intentions, and returned to the cabinet to discuss the drafting of the decree.After taking their seats, the elders Zhang and Li cupped their hands to congratulate Elder Lu Ge. First, he congratulated that Guoben was finally settled, and then he congratulated this student for being knighted for his military exploits——

Although in this dynasty, because the Taizu was born as a marquis of the Han Dynasty in the north, he was infected with some foreign customs, and tended to use the daughter of the family as the palace, and did not restrain his relatives. , It cannot be hereditary, and it is lower than those who judge their titles based on military merits.This time, Huan Ling entrusted the blessing of the King of Zhou, and was able to be knighted with military merits, and his future prospects will be broader in the future.

But he didn't have any parents, so it didn't matter if the title was hereditary or not.

Lu Shoufu said a few words with emotion, and Zhang Cifu was hooked by him to think of a serious matter—"I remember that Huan Ling and my disciple Song Shi were married, so now should they be sealed? But how can this man be sealed? Should he also be called to Beijing to participate in the grand ceremony?"

Dazheng has never had a precedent of a man conferring a patent, but the two of them are considered to be married before the emperor, and the troubles have been known to the world for so many years, so they can't be taken for granted, right?Not to mention far away, when Huanling brought Prince Tumed to Beijing the day before yesterday, the newspapers brought back had stories about their husband and wife entertaining the envoys from the grassland to dance exotic dances and tour the Yellow River!

Lu Shoufu and Zhang Cifu had recognized their in-laws for many years, so they naturally took this marriage seriously, and couldn't help feeling sad, thinking about how to arrange Song Shi.Only Mr. Li Ge still struggled, and asked the two colleagues: "Do you know that the two of them are really married? Although there has always been such a saying, you have never seen his two have a wedding, right?"

When two Hanlins get married, they should always invite the teacher to the wedding banquet, right?But he had never heard of the two Ge elders having the wedding wine of Huan and Song.

Zhang Cifu shook his head and said, "Although we were never invited, both the Song family and his son should have recognized this marriage. I heard that the genealogy of the two families has been changed, and they have to visit each other during the New Year's Eve. In my opinion, it may have been Brother Huan at the time. When the family left Beijing, the young couple rushed to do it in order to reassure their grandfather, so everything was simple."

Moreover, there have never been two men married in this world. Perhaps the two families were shy at the time and did not dare to speak out.Later, seeing that the two of them supported each other to live a better life, and never ruined their future because of this marriage, so they opened their hearts and were willing to speak to others.

Speaking of which, Song Shi's second elder brother became the servant of Zhongshu, and he works in the corridor. Do you want him to come over to testify?

Shout!

Mr. Li Ge met Song Yun with his last hope, and then heard more unacceptable news from him than he expected: "After Mr. Huan left Beijing, they got married and went to the Song family. Cough, The two families are on the genealogy. Brother She and Mr. Huan are both men, so there is no need to mention who married whom."

Second Brother Song has treated Huan Ling as a younger brother and sister at home these years, and in front of the old man, he still wants to save face for this fourth-rank censor, not to say that he is the daughter-in-law of the Song family.

Such generosity made the light in Li Ge's eyes disappear a bit.

After he went down, Li Ge said resignedly, "Let's not mention anything else, the important thing is how to bestow the title... A man can't be given the title, right? Since ancient times, there has never been a concubine's natal sister-in-law to give him a title... It would be easier if Huan Ling married off, the husbands-in-law of the princesses and concubines would not have to be rewarded...No, a man can't be counted as a married woman..."

The three elders discussed for a long time, and drew up several titles for Huan Lingjia, but they still couldn't figure out how to confer them in Song Dynasty, so they had to push this issue to the Holy One when they submitted the titles the next day.

You can add ranks, be promoted, and be knighted, it depends on the holy will.

The three of them put aside their burdens and concentrated on preparing for King Zhou's return to Beijing and canonization of the prince. Emperor Xintai opened this unannotated memorial, but he also fell into their troubles yesterday.

These two...why did they get married so early!

If they are not yet married at this time, after a few years when the Song Dynasty returns to the court after his full term, and give them a lively wedding banquet, wouldn't they have been fooled by the imperial edict?

The Son of Heaven let out a deep sigh, and first circled the three characters "Yongninghou" with a Chinese ink pen in the title drawn up by the cabinet. No steps are added, only Zhan Shi, the young master of Zhan Shifu, is relocated...

There has never been an example of a man receiving an edict with his husband or wife before, and it is not easy to set such a precedent in this dynasty, so let's just assume that there is no such marriage and arrange it according to the example of the minister's transfer.

In the past, the long histories used in the royal palace of Zhou were only the top three Jinshi, but now that he is the prince, the officials of the East Palace must be filled by Hanlin.In the Song Dynasty, since he was Sanyuan Jidi and was born in Hanlin Xiuzhuan, he stayed with the King of Zhou to assist him in the past few years. He actually took on the position of an official of the Eastern Palace, and now he is officially given this title.

——Even his Hanlin status before he left Beijing was restored to him, and he was asked to concurrently serve as a lecturer in the Hanlin, and he would enter the palace sooner or later to give lectures on Confucianism to the prince.

Now that the Holy Majesty has made a judgment, the cabinet will move quickly.First, he drafted Huan Ling's imperial edict as a scholar in the Imperial Academy, and then he planned to welcome the King of Zhou to Beijing, and to move back to Beijing during Song Dynasty...

The Ministry of Rites was busy arranging the bestowal on Huan Ling, preparing for the guard of honor and chariots for King Zhou to return to Beijing.The king of Wei was currently leading an envoy in the Ministry of Rites, and when he heard Elder Lu Ge order the Rites and Temple Priests to prepare something, he asked who it was for.

Although Lu Ge was very happy about the establishment of the crown prince in the cabinet, he never leaked such a major event easily, so he just said perfunctorily: "The Holy Grace, because Huan Ling recruited and surrendered Tumote's meritorious service, he was specially conferred a title. Soon Once the decree comes down, His Highness will know."

No matter what the third prince thought, he felt that a civil servant shouldn't be knighted so easily, so he wanted to inquire about the inside story.Before he heard any news from behind the scenes, he heard the imperial decree and told the whole court: Because of the frequent news of success in the northwest, the king of Zhou made great contributions in preparing, operating grain, grass and military equipment, and stabilizing the affairs of the northwestern provinces. It is necessary to send people to welcome the king of Zhou and return the court.

However, due to the high status of the king of Zhou and his great contribution to the great cause of unifying the Northwest, he must be greeted by nobles to suit his status.His Majesty saw that Huanling's military merits were enough to confer a title, and he had lived in Hanzhong with the King of Zhou for a long time. He was familiar with the road and acted prudently.

Also toward.

Not going to Beijing, not even returning to Beijing, but returning to the court.

After returning to court, isn't he going to participate in politics!

The king of Zhou must be greeted with nobles when he returns to Beijing, and the merits of Huan Ling's consolation are enough to be knighted.Everything else is just a cover-up, the real important thing is that the father misses his elder brother!His elder brother is one step further away from the reserve position!
