Chen Guogong Mansion.

"Li Minghan has passed away, and the feud between the Chen and Li families has ended. From now on, no more attacks are allowed against the Li family, against Li Mingze, and no more use of the Chen family's resources in the court." The eldest son of the current Chen Guogong is also the de facto de facto member of the Chen family. Chen Qing, the helmsman of the company, said to his gloomy younger brother Chen Chong.

"Chief of Chang'an County, Li Minghan's son?" After hearing the news just now, Chen Chong's gloomy face was still a little unbelievable, and then a trace of anger appeared on his face, and he said: "It's just a county prince, why should our Chen family be afraid of him?" ?”

"It would be nice if things were really that simple." Chen Qing said in a deep voice: "But this is the first example of His Majesty being granted a title in recent years. He jumped from a commoner to a noble in the capital. I heard that the old lady of the Li family lived a long life. On the day of the banquet, Prince Ning and Princess Yongle both sent congratulatory gifts. Do you really think these things are not connected? "

The Chen family has been prosperous for decades because of the emperor's grace. In fact, no matter whether they are the prince or the duke, which noble family in the capital is not like this?

Whether it is glory or poverty, it all depends on the royal family.

To the Chen family, the county prince or even the county prince was nothing, but they could not ignore the thoughts of the emperor today.

A county that was granted an unusual title is more than just a small viscount. It can allow His Majesty to ignore the objections of the courtiers. How important is the other party in His Majesty's heart?

A little personal grudge is not worth the dissatisfaction of today. 【△网WwW.】

"I know." Chen Chong clenched his fists and finally sighed helplessly.

The feud with the Li family is a personal feud. If the personal feud has any adverse impact on the entire Chen family, he will become a sinner of the family.

Walking out of the room, Chen Chong let out a long sigh, feeling a deep sense of powerlessness welling up from the bottom of his heart.

When he saw the woman sitting in the garden, the helpless look on his face immediately disappeared and turned into a smile. He walked over slowly and said, "When the weather gets better in two days, go out for a walk and stay in the house." If you do it for a long time, I might feel depressed.”

The woman had white hair and looked like she was in her early thirties. She was looking ahead in trance. After hearing the words, she came back to her senses and a slight smile appeared on her face. She said: "It has been more than ten years, and I am indeed a little depressed. Listen, The second brother’s is also good.”

When Chen Chong heard this, a hint of joy appeared on his face and he said, "I'll make arrangements right away."

The woman smiled and nodded, but the sparkle in her eyes was still lacking.

A nobleman who suddenly appears is a matter of note to all the powerful families in the capital.

Especially when they found out that they knew nothing about the Chang'an County Prince, who seemed to appear out of thin air and suddenly became the favored one, which made everyone feel surprised and surprised.

The ministers in the court were naturally opposed to this. Almost all the nobility, large and small, in the capital had titles earned by their ancestors during the founding of the country. From then on, it became difficult to achieve titles.

Many veterans have worked hard all their lives, but they still cannot get such an honor. The prominence is only for one generation and cannot be extended to future generations. How can a young man without any merit be worthy of him? His Majesty's move will chill the hearts of many ministers in the court.

However, everyone's objections were suppressed by His Majesty. Several big shots in the court also chose to remain silent. Even the censor did not report anything, which made everyone aware of something unusual.

Your Majesty will not grant a knighthood for no reason. The only possibility is that this son of Chang'an County really has enough merits to be knighted. At such a young age, he has accomplished things that many senior ministers cannot do in their lifetimes.

There is no way to verify this, and His Majesty will not explain it to them in detail. It seems that there is no useful information from the Chang'an County magistrate.

Because the other party was not like other nobles at all, he did not invite other nobles after the knighthood, nor did he hold any banquet. It was so low-key that it was outrageous.

The only thing they knew was that the other party was the grandson of Li's family and a family member of Li Shilang, the official department, that's all.

Li Xianzi, who is at the forefront of public opinion, has no time to care about this. He just moved into his new home today.

The county mansion is actually not far from Kyoto. Although you can't see the city wall from your doorstep, it can still be considered within the second ring road of Kyoto.

The eunuch who led the way said that the house had just been built by His Majesty's Ministry of Engineering and the new one could not be built any more.

Ennoblement is not just a title. The viscount's palace, fiefdom, tenants, maids, servants and even guards are all included in the gift package of the title.

Soon after leaving the capital, we entered Chang'an County. Less than half an hour further along the official road, we could see a magnificent mansion in the distance. A group of maids and servants stood in two rows. When everyone approached, they immediately turned around. The waist said respectfully: "Welcome Sir to return home!"

Xiaohuan was startled. She grabbed Li Yi's sleeve and looked at these people with curiosity. Even when Li Yi was the county captain, she had never seen such a big battle.

Lao Fang stood there blankly, looking at the scene in front of him with envy on his face.

A group of maids, a lovely wife and concubines, and a big house. Isn't this the life he dreams of?

The little girl in the Dragon Boat Festival also held her mother's hand tightly and looked at the door of the Viscount's Mansion with timid eyes. This is where they will live in the future. They no longer have to squeeze into a small bed with their grandma and mother. She Will you have a room of your own?

The woman named He Xiu, who was held by the little girl's hand, also had a look of realization on her face. She was bullied by bullies on the street a few days ago, and her family was squeezed into a small room. In a blink of an eye, she lived in a high-class courtyard with maids and servants. All of this made her feel as if she was in a dream.

Next to her, a man in his forties rubbed his hands a little awkwardly, but his face was full of excitement.

There were no houses within fifty feet around the Viscount's mansion. In a farther place, there were figures looking around carefully. It was heard that the manor had welcomed a new owner, a duke personally conferred by His Majesty. The farmers poked their heads out one by one, wanting to see what the duke looked like.

"Go in first." Li Yi waved his hand and took the lead to walk into the new house.

The servants also swarmed in and stood neatly in the yard.

Looking at the group of servants standing respectfully in the yard, from now on, everything about them, including life and death, is in his hands, and Li Yi is still a little uncomfortable.

So this is the life of the nobles, no wonder so many people are scrambling to be crowned kings and prime ministers, the word power can indeed bring people an uncertain experience.
