The God-Level Prodigal Son of the Tang Dynasty

The construction of Lingyan Pavilion officially ended on November 15, the 10th year of Zhenguan.

Duan Lun, Minister of the Ministry of Industry, was very happy and handed the note to the emperor.

Please ask the emperor to choose a day for the unveiling.

Lingyan Pavilion is the place where the merits of the heroes of the Tang Dynasty are evaluated. It started when the emperor announced that he would build Lingyan Pavilion.

This attracted the attention of all officials and heroes.

No one wants to let their name enter Lingyan Pavilion. This is a matter of honoring the lintel.

Many officials began to inquire about the list of heroes of Lingyan Pavilion early in the morning.

Even if they can't reach the third floor, as long as they can enter Lingyan Pavilion, it will be an extremely honorable thing.

But the confidentiality of the list is not something they can see.

Today, the emperor will announce the list of heroes of Lingyan Pavilion in the court hall. .??.

The ministers were all a little uneasy, and there was not even a sound coming from the Tai Chi Hall.

Hou Junji was a little worried. He was Li Chengqian's man before, and Li Chengqian ranked his name after Changsun Wuji.

Now that things have happened between Li Chengqian and Changsun Wuji, it is probably impossible for him, the second hero of Lingyan Pavilion, to succeed.

General Hou, don't worry. I went to Zhezi with my father last night to explain General Hou's past achievements.

Presumably the affairs of the Luzhou County Prince will not involve General Hou. Li Tai said to Hou Junji with a smile.

Now there is only one Yu Shinan beside Li Tai.

The ministers in the DPRK are all waiting and watching. If Hou Junji can be ranked high in Lingyan Pavilion under his command, it will naturally calm the wavering officials.

Li Tai didn't dare not treat it with care.

Thank you, Your Highness, Prince! Hou Junji felt somewhat relieved.

Li Tai had just become the crown prince, and it was a time when he needed people's wishes. The emperor would not refuse Li Tai's request.

Then the memorial tablet of his hero in Lingyan Pavilion should still be at the front.

General Hou, you don't have to be like this. You and I are all our own people. Li Tai waved his hand and looked around behind him, but Zhao Chen was nowhere to be seen.

.

Your Majesty sent someone to summon Zhao Chen to come to court. I heard that the eunuch who went to announce the decree was kicked out by the Zhao family's concierge. Hou Junji whispered.

This wasn't the first time he heard about the Zhao family's concierge.

The last time Li Chengqian took Du He to the Zhao Mansion, he was beaten up by the concierge.

It's hard to imagine that a concierge could beat Du He until he was unable to fight back.

So rude, I wonder if he still has His Majesty in his heart! Hou Junji frowned, but he felt more and more relieved.

As long as Zhao Chen doesn't come, he, Hou Junji, can move forward in the ranking in Lingyan Pavilion.

…

Your Majesty, why are you suddenly announcing the list of heroes of Lingyan Pavilion so soon?

Isn't there still more than a month until New Year's Eve?

In Ganquan Hall, the emperor was changing his clothes and preparing to go to court. Queen Changsun asked casually.

Now that Lingyan Pavilion has been repaired, this matter should be finalized as soon as possible.

All the officials have been waiting for this for a long time.

Anyway, it will be announced sooner or later, so it should be as soon as possible. The emperor explained, but in his heart he was thinking about whether to change the list he finally decided on.

The list of heroes of Lingyan Pavilion is of great importance. If one of them is not good, it will cause dissatisfaction among the officials, which is not a good thing.

What are you worried about, Your Majesty? Empress Changsun asked after seeing the Emperor frowning.

Mr. Guanyin, the list of heroes of Lingyan Pavilion this time is of great importance. I have often been worried that this list will make some ministers unhappy.

Those who are ranked at the bottom feel that their achievements are so great that they should not be ranked at the bottom.

Those who have the most merit think that the people in front of them are the same as themselves, so how can they be ranked in front of themselves? The emperor shook his head.

He was worried that this would happen.

The heroes refused to obey anyone, and finally broke up in unhappiness.

Your Majesty, Zhao Chen once said something to me. I thought it was very reasonable. Your Majesty, would you like to hear it? Empress Changsun thought for a while and asked the emperor.

What can a young boy like him say? The emperor still remembered that Zhao Chen and Wei Zheng ate more than a dozen of his own in half a month.

This anger is not so easy to dissipate.

Empress Changsun knew that these were the emperor's angry words and said with a smile, Zhao Chen once said that the emperor is the emperor, and sometimes his attitude can be tougher.

Some people are used to taking others' kindness to them for granted.

Your Majesty, do you think this makes sense?

The emperor frowned.

As an emperor, he was often in trouble.

Li Shimin always thought of those ministers who followed him to conquer the world.

Therefore, Li Shimin would grit his teeth and agree to requests that were not too outrageous.

But over time, many people become more and more demanding.

It was as if he, Li Shimin, was born in debt to them.

The emperor had never thought of taking a tougher attitude, but thinking of the blood shed by those people on the battlefield, he became worried about government affairs.

Li Shimin couldn't be cruel.

But after all, they are the heroes of our Tang Dynasty, and Lingyan Pavilion is where their achievements are demonstrated.

If... The emperor still hesitated.

Your Majesty, it's time to go to court! Empress Changsun said to the emperor without speaking.

…

In the Taiji Hall, the blazing gazes of the ministers made the emperor a little uncomfortable.

As an emperor, Li Shimin was kind.

We will not discuss other matters this morning. A few days ago, Duan Lun, Minister of the Ministry of Industry, reported to me that the Lingyan Pavilion has been repaired.

I said a few months ago that I would show my greatness in Lingyan Pavilion.

The achievements of the heroes of the Tang Dynasty.

The list of meritorious officials was submitted one month ago by Wannian County Duke Zhao Chen, Prince Li Tai, and Luzhou County Prince Li Chengqian.

I have made some adjustments, and this is the final list of heroes. The emperor's voice sounded.

The thick booklet held in his hand made everyone's eyes fixed on it.

Everyone was extremely excited.

They were all wondering if they had a chance to enter Lingyan Pavilion.

Even if you can't enter the third level, as long as you can enter, it will be a good thing that will honor your ancestors and bring blessings to your descendants.

Xuancheng, I'll leave it to you to read the list! The emperor looked at Wei Zheng and said.

Wei Zheng was stunned for a moment and said nothing more.

He took the folder from the eunuch's hand and slowly opened it. The dense handwriting made Wei Zheng stutter.

Quickly scanning the names on the list, Wei Zheng showed no emotion on his face.

Old Qin, where do you think our names will be ranked? Cheng Yaojin was also excited at this moment and asked Qin Qiong.

Qin Qiong shook his head, if only he knew this.

You should be in front. As for me... Qin Qiong shook her head and smiled bitterly.

Don't worry, His Majesty will not forget you. Cheng Yaojin comforted.

During the Xuanwu Gate, Qin Qiong's inaction made the emperor very angry.

Although it is not shown openly.

But over the years, Qin Qiong has not participated in any foreign war.

For a general, not fighting means being put on hold.

If it weren't for Zhao Chen's appearance, the emperor wouldn't even have the thought of talking to Qin Qiong.

In the list of heroes of Lingyan Pavilion, even if Qin Qiong's name is included, it should be at the bottom.

The number one hero of Lingyan Pavilion is Sun Wuji, the eldest Duke of Qi... Wei Zheng's voice suddenly sounded, and all the officials held their breath and did not dare to breathe.
