Royal Road

Before dawn, the ox cart drove out of the mansion. Today is the day of the Chang Dynasty and the day of the prefect of the Shangdang prefect. According to the rules, Baiguan should enter the court in the early morning to participate in the court meeting. At the moment, there are many more frames on the empty street, and they are walking along Tongtuo Avenue towards Changhemen.

Beside the slowly advancing car, Cui Ji rode his horse to follow. These days, he didn't take time off, and he visited some familiar people. The interpersonal relationship possessed by Cui Ji, of course, is not qualified to be attached to the courtiers, but which official does not have an assistant or guest secretary in his family? These poor children hidden behind the towering trees are his goals.

After some inquiries, Cui Ji got the same conclusion as the previous inference. The DPRK wanted to appoint a new governor and the state governor, but the candidate couldn't be determined for a while, so Xiao Tianzi interjected. Because of this, Liang Feng was able to enter Beijing.

This is an extremely rare opportunity! If you are promoted to the governor's history, the monarch can immediately control the land of a state. Even if it is vying with the Huns, it will not fall short. After the expansion of the territory, Shangdang's New Deal can also be promoted to other counties and counties, and population, military power and even wealth will further increase. More importantly, the governor is no longer a mere guardian. If he adds the rank of general, he will be a real official in frontiers. If he meets Wang Jun, he will not be without the strength to fight back.

And the most important thing to promote to such a high position is to get the support of the current lieutenant. Yes, it was Sima Yue's support, not the emperor's. Theoretically, all official posts should be sealed by the emperor, but this is no better than in the past. Sima Yue controls all affairs of North Korea and China. If you cross him and take refuge in the emperor, not to mention it is a provincial governor, I am afraid that even the current prefecture will not be able to keep.

Therefore, after Cui Ji found out the news, he instructed Liang Feng repeatedly to make him show his proper posture in the temple. This is about the overall situation, and it is hard to think about it.

However, riding on the horse at this moment, Cui Ji couldn't help but toss in his heart. Right in front of the Tongluo Avenue, which can't be seen at a glance, is the towering Luhe Gate, and all the courtiers' vehicles are like ants bending their knees to the palace. They are walking on the central axis of Luoyang City and are about to enter the core palace of the dynasty. Even he, a person who is not qualified to go to court, started to get excited. When he really faced the emperor and received his favor and approval, how many people could keep his sense?

If something goes wrong accidentally, what should I do?

The sultry morning breeze blew on him, causing a layer of fine sweat to burst out from behind Cui Ji. Even this long road seemed difficult.

Since it was not a dynasty such as Zhengdan or Winter Solstice, Luhe Gate, the main gate of the palace, was not open. All courtiers had to bypass the main gate and enter through Yemen. In front of the palace gate, the bamboo curtain was picked up, and Liang Feng stepped out of the bullock cart with the help of his personal guards.

Wearing a crimson dress, wearing a Jinxian two-beam crown, a fake bronze ink ribbon, holding an ivory fluorene board. Against the background of such a dress, just standing in place makes people feel demeanor.

Cui Ji loosened his hanging heart, and said in a low voice: "Fujun, please be cautious."

Nodding slightly, Liang Feng stepped into the palace gate. At this moment, the sky was faintly bright, and the pattern in the palace could be seen faintly. There are not many people in this kind of regular dynasty, and all of them have straight faces and a solemn appearance. In this atmosphere, Liang Feng was inconvenient to wait and see at will, and came to the bottom of the stage with everyone.

Because of the habit of kneeling and sitting in the world, shoes are not allowed in the Shang Dynasty. The so-called "Swordsmanship on the Palace" is a special treatment only available to powerful officials like Cao Cao. With only white socks, stepping on the cold stone slab, Liang Fenghou was outside the hall, waiting to be summoned.

This wait is half an hour. Standing until both legs were numb, the waiter's shout came from the hall: "Xuan Shangdang prefect Liang Feng will see you!"

Without the slightest negligence, Liang Feng tended to step into the court. "Xu acts in steps, and tends to behave quickly." The so-called trending is to take small steps in a hurry. This is the etiquette necessary when referring to the elders, especially the king. However, it may not look good when it walks, especially those who are fat, old, and physically weak, it is inevitable that they will feel pretentious.

But Liang Feng did not. Bo's coat robe swayed swiftly, and his slender waist swayed like a bamboo, like a lonely crane stepping on the wind. He came under the imperial step and leaned forward to worship.

"Liang Feng, the prefect of the party prefect, see your majesty!"

"Aiqing is flat."

Above the throne, there was a tender voice. After Liang Feng respectfully thanked him, he just stood up. Only then did he see the scene in front of him clearly.

I saw a young man sitting on the throne. I guess he is twelve or thirteen years old. He is wearing a dungaree and a crown on his head. I don’t know if it’s a temporary dress. When worn on his body, it is not majestic. On the contrary, it looks like a doll in an adult’s clothes. It is even more childish and absurd. .

Unlike what Cui Ji was worried about, Liang Feng came from later generations and had no fear of the "real dragon". In his eyes, the child is a child, even if he is wearing a dragon robe, he is not worth fearing. And this humble posture is more for showing others.

Just under the head of the emperor, a man with a beard and beard sat aside. Wearing a Sanliangguan on his head and wearing a yellow robe, although his appearance is not as handsome as that of the king of Chengdu, he has a bit of tolerance.

With just a glance, Liang Feng lowered his eyes, watching his nose and nose, and waiting for his enquiry.

He didn't look at him wanton, but the people in the seat were looking at him wanton. Sima Yue snorted in his heart, and never thought that Liang Zixi's demeanor was even three points stronger than he thought. Even if you are used to seeing handsome talents in the court, and there are big names such as Wang Yan in the list, this little prefect still keeps his style, like a jade falling between the rubble, making the others inferior by three points in the hall. .

Just looking at this appearance, I am afraid that the emperor will applaud it?

Sure enough, the little emperor seemed to have finished looking at the people in front of him, and then he said: "I heard that Jinyang has released the siege, is it the Qing's credit?"

Liang Feng bowed slightly: "The ministers dare not take credit. Jinyang's rescue is mainly due to the defenders in the city. The Shangdang people only help each other. Moreover, the Xiongnu have stuck to Qixian and have not completely retreated."

This answer is three points more humble than stated in the victory report. The little emperor nodded: "Bingzhou has repeatedly failed, and this record is also a credit."

As soon as these words were spoken, Sima Yue's face changed. The one who guarded Bingzhou before, but his younger brother Sima Teng, does this mean that Sima Teng is incompetent?

Liang Feng saluted again: "The defeat is the strong enemy, and the victory is due to the great shortage of Lishi. Your Majesty has a good reputation."

This put the reason for the victory on Lishi's natural disaster and locust plague, and it also counted Sima Teng's face. Sima became better on his face, but the little emperor pondered for a moment before saying: "If Qing leads the army, can you retire the Huns?"

As soon as these words came out, Sima Yue couldn't help but speak: "Your Majesty, military affairs, you should speak carefully."

This was a bit rude, but the little emperor immediately closed his mouth and followed the kindness: "The Taiwei said it was very true."

Intercepting the emperor’s words, Sima Yue turned his head to look at the sickly young man holding a dental plate: "Liang Taishou, this meritorious service will be a reward from the court. It’s just that the affairs of the state are complicated, so don’t arbitrarily decide. I have heard about the Shangdang. What weapon did you use to repel the Huns before?"

This question was a little ridiculous. According to reason, the research and development of ordnance must be reported to the court. A mere prefect, using a powerful weapon to win, but did not immediately declare it, it is really disrespectful.

Liang Feng just took a meal, and said: "There are ingenuity in the county, and the army has improved the explosive artillery. No manpower is required, and the bomb can be dropped as long as the engine is pulled. The cost is more than twice the original cost, and the amount of stone bombs dropped. It is also limited. Before retreating the enemy, it was all taking advantage of the enemy's unpreparedness. The next official has ordered someone to draw a blueprint for the court."

He was talking about the court, not the emperor. These words made Sima Yue feel a little relieved, and smiled slightly: "Liang Prefect."

After that, he turned his head and said to the little emperor: "Your Majesty, Liang Taishou has a good rule of the county, and he has done a great job. You can enter the county and Zengyi households."

Sima Yue's eyes fixed on the emperor, waiting for his answer.

After a moment of silence, the little emperor nodded: "As played by Zhunqing."

This is not his original intention to recruit Liang Feng. However, Sima Tan is only twelve years old now, and lacks both xinxing and concentration. I just spoke up and said too much, which aroused my uncle's vigilance. This sentence is actually not asking for a reward, but reconfirming whether he is obedient. How can the cleverness of the little emperor risk his life to win a courtier for himself?

The two asked and answered each question, and decided on the method of reward. No one spoke about the appointment of the governor.

Standing on the court, Liang Feng only felt a depression in his chest. He has thought about many countermeasures, but never thought that he would become a tool for the two Sima ethnicities to wrestle with each other so easily. Just Jinjue, why come this time? But what can he say? No, this is Chaotang, a place to survive with another game rule. And now, he has no position to speak.

Bowing down again, kneeling under the cold imperial steps, Liang Feng thanked the emperor for his reward and returned to the train.

As if to complete a certain ritual, Sima Yue settled a few things easily, and the emperor announced his retreat.

Out of the gate of the court. The sky outside was bright, Liang Feng walked slowly in this magnificent palace, but his heart became a little bit cold. Is there any hope for Binzhou? How will Sima Yue make arrangements? The only opportunity has turned into the biggest obstacle. Who can he blame? Blame the puppet on the throne?

On the other side, Wang Yan gently leaned to Sima Yue's side: "Will Taiwei still not use this son?"

Sima Yue sneered: "You can't just use it rashly."

Today the emperor's appearance is too much, how can he tolerate this little guy escaping from control. This is not normal. If the emperor and this high position are lost, wouldn't Sima Ying have a chance to take advantage of it? It's a matter of life and death, and you can't let it go!

But it's time to suppress it, and other things have to be considered. After thinking about it, Sima Yue whispered a few words to the Huang Clan attendant beside him, and the other party nodded and walked back quickly.

The stick has been knocked, let's see how he will respond tomorrow.

Guarding outside the palace gate, Cui Ji just felt eager to see through. I don't know what happened in the court? Whether the Fujun can be successfully promoted to the governorship. However, when the sun rose and the officials dismissed, he finally saw the figure.

"Fujun!" Cui Ji couldn't help feeling cold when he saw the look on Liang Feng's face.

Liang Feng said indifferently: "Your Majesty has given me to increase my dignity."

Oops! Cui Ji can't wait to grit his teeth, just like this? Why is it so!

However, this is not the time to talk, he is about to help Liangfeng get into the car and leave the palace gate. A little yellow gate rushed over: "Liang Taishou stays behind!"

Liang Feng stood still. The little yellow door hurriedly smiled and said, "Liang Taishou, the lieutenant has ordered you to invite you to a banquet tomorrow."
