"My son welcomes the father to return to the court with victory!" The prince, wearing apricot yellow five-clawed golden dragon suit, and with a high-spirited look, led the princes and civil and military officials to wait for the return of Emperor Wen of Zhou's army fifty miles outside the city.

"You are very good in the days when I am away." I don't know if it means that the prince handles political affairs well, or has other profound meanings.

After Emperor Wen of Zhou left this sentence, he walked towards the princes and officials behind the prince, leaving the prince alone to think about what the meaning of Emperor Wen of Zhou said. Since he killed the prince's left concubine Xie Zhuang and the prince's right concubine Yang Xuansu, he made his father angry. In addition, those uneasy brothers joined forces to compete with him in the court, the proud prince was frightened and began to suspect the hidden meaning behind every sentence that Emperor Wen of Zhou said.

My father really praised him for his good work in handling matters of foreign affairs, both of them, and...

The prince suddenly turned pale.

It was still implied that he made private friends with officials during these days of being the governor. He arranged his followers to win people's hearts... It was impossible! He did all these things very secretly! But... the emperor had Dongchang around him, and he condoned civil servants to deal with the eunuchs... and there were a few of the newly recruited disciples who came in by themselves, maybe some of the spies who were slapped with the annoying brothers...

Not to mention the prince himself, the princes standing behind the prince could no longer hold back the moment Emperor Wen of Zhou praised the prince.

"My son congratulations to my father for defeating the Huns and returning to the court! From then on, those hateful Huns are afraid that they will not dare to go south easily. I only regret that my son cannot follow my soldiers in the Great Zhou Dynasty to kill the enemy and make achievements!" The eldest prince Li Tianhuang said with his fist.

"If the son of a thousand gold cannot sit in the hall, you will be happy." Emperor Wen of Zhou praised.

"What my brother said is very much. I heard that the Hun barbarians were not all made of iron. It was as easy as killing ants in the Great Zhou to deal with them. Just send a team of elite troops to kill them! Let's see who dares to invade my Great Zhou's power in the future!" The sixth prince Li Tianhuang said whistling on the surface, like a rough man, sometimes even dares to poke the pain of Emperor Wen of Zhou. He and Li Tianhuang, a mother, came from the vanguard of the charge of the eldest prince party.

The ninth prince Li Tianlang squeezed away Li Tianhuang without any trace and said proudly: "Father is the emperor, and he is blessed by heaven and has a deep luck. Those Hun barbarians are naturally no match for my Great Zhou soldiers!"

"The Ninth Brother's words are reasonable! They are all due to the power of the father!" The tenth prince Li Tianying hurriedly followed his ninth brother's words.

"This battle is entirely due to the father's plan, keen eyes and talent, and appointing talents to defeat the Huns. Of course, I also have to thank the soldiers of the Great Zhou for their bloody battles and sacrifice themselves. The Zen spirits of the court have worked hard to raise and allocate 20,000 troops to ensure that our army has the strength to kill the Huns! You all have a lot of contributions!" His words were very versatile. First, he praised Emperor Wen of Zhou's unique eyes, but he did not forget about the ordinary soldiers who really took over their lives. Finally, he also gave a merit to the civil officials and officials in the court who planned to cry for the poor and cut off the border military food and supplies.

Emperor Wen of Zhou nodded quietly.

The civil servants who were unhappy to greet the warriors had a smile on their faces, and their favor for the eighth prince Li Tianjin was even more serious.

"Yanmen, Yunzhong, had a great victory, beheaded nearly 100,000 people. Huhanye's tribe was greatly damaged. The other Huns, Xianbei, Turks, and Rouran tribes would not dare to act rashly anymore! After the New Year, we would have enough money and food to fight another battle. At that time, we could attack the grasslands and retreat, and we could send troops to defend the border and stand invincible." The fourth prince Li Tianyan said it as if he was pragmatic, but he compared the princes.

Damn the fourth brother! The princes, Li Tianhuang, Li Tianjin, Li Tianlang, Li Tianying and others who were directly or indirectly interested in "that position that cannot be said" all scolded Li Tianyan in their hearts.

Even Li Tianjin, who answered the most proficiently, could not compare with Li Tianyan's words. Li Tianjin was at best just sharing the cake and winning people's hearts. However, Li Tianyan's words put himself in the overall situation of the country, or even the perspective of the crown prince.

Emperor Wen of Zhou nodded slightly as if satisfied.

"The father is responsible for the safety of all people. I am really worried that I can't eat them these days. My son and my seventh brother have copied a lot of Buddhist scriptures to offer to the Buddha. Fortunately, my father has the blessing of God and defeated the Huns. This is really a joy for my Great Zhou Dynasty!" The fifth prince Li Tianqi said sincerely.

Emperor Wen of Zhou nodded with relief. His fifth son was the most honest, so he said that he was worried that he could not eat, which was because he was really worried that he could not eat, and that he would not be a lie to him.

"Lao Qi, are you here too? Are you doing well recently?" After mentioning the fifth son, Emperor Wen of Zhou was slightly surprised to find that he had been disabled and had not seen outsiders for many years.

"My son is paying homage to my father, thanking him for his concern. The Emperor Zheng is skilled in medical skills. After being conditioned by Emperor Zheng, I feel much better." When the seventh prince Li Tianjie stared at a person with two dark and shiny eyes, the other party felt that he had nowhere to hide in front of him, as if all his unknown secrets were exposed in front of him. He gave people a feeling of clear and angular coldness, even colder than Li Tianyan, who was privately called "cold-faced prince" by all officials in the court.

Emperor Wen of Zhou was in a bad condition, although Lao Qi was in poor health, he was also a filial and polite person.

He named Lao Qi Jie.

Jie is Dagui.

Note: The emperor's ruler's command is the gui of the princes. Gui is six feet and two inches called Jie.——"Book of Songs·Erya"

Taibao Cheng Jiegui.——"Book of Gu Ming"

In the heart of Emperor Wen of Zhou, the disabled seventh prince Li Tianjie was a vassal king who was destined to be divided. But because of this, he could take better care of the seventh son and love the seventh son. For the same thing, the fourth son Li Tianyan was moody when he was doing it, so the seventh son Li Tianjie had the true nature and did not meet his father.

Therefore, in terms of favor, Li Tianjie may not be as good as the crown prince, the fifth prince Li Tianqi and the ninth prince Li Tianlang; in terms of emphasis, Li Tianjie may not be as good as the eldest prince Li Tianhuang, the fourth prince Li Tianyan, and the eighth prince Li Tianjin; but in terms of trust, the only one among the princes who can make Emperor Wen of Zhou believe the most is the seventh prince.

"Where is Zhang Xu?" After Emperor Wen of Zhou and his family said hello, they turned around and called the minister.

"I am here." Zhang Xu, the current Minister of Rites, is Jia Lian's cousin and elder brother Jia She's father-in-law, respectfully set out.

"..." Emperor Wen of Zhou paused before asking, "How is the General's funeral arrangement?"

As soon as these words came out, even Jia Lian, who was absent-minded, came to his senses and stared at Zhang Xu with his eyes tightly.

"Return to the emperor, I have arranged for the Supreme General's Mansion to help prepare according to the highest standards of this dynasty. Moreover, I have prepared the posthumous title and just waited for the emperor to issue an order." Zhang Xu lowered his eyes, not paying attention to his cousin-nephew standing side by side with Dai, standing closest to Emperor Wen of Zhou.

"I don't worry about Zhang Aiqing's work. It's better to be posthumous title than to be late. Zhang Aiqing will tell you which posthumous titles you have prepared." Although Dongchang Fanzi looked around for the body of frozen Niu Jin's ice cubes, even if Emperor Wen of Zhou ordered an urgent march, when he returned to the capital, Niu Jin's corpse had already appeared on the body of a corpse spot and began to rot, and he could not be dragged down any longer.

"Yes." Zhang Xu hesitated slightly, then raised his hand and replied, "I, together with the ministers and ministers, discussed a total of five characters suitable for the posthumous title of the general." If you are about to die, everyone will die together.

"It is Huan, Ping, Zhuang, Jing, and Yong." The princes next to him had known the posthumous titles that the Ministry of Rites had agreed to have been announced, and they looked at Emperor Wen of Zhou at the same time.

As soon as he heard these five words, Emperor Wen of Zhou immediately changed his face, his face was gloomy, and a storm was about to come. Jia Lian behind him clenched his fists, his nails penetrated into his flesh, and bright red blood oozed out.

He took a deep breath and slowly exhaled: "Oh? Zhang Qing might as well explain!" Even Ai Qing didn't scream.

Zhang Xu complained secretly in his heart, but his face still looked like he was doing business.

"Return to the emperor, he was called Huan, and the land and country were called Huan." Jia Lian understood that this was not only saying that Niu Jin had made contributions to conquering the city and territories, but also implying that he was violent.

"If you have no traits, it is called Ping, if you have a trait, it is called Ping, if you have a trait, it is called Ping." The traits mean faults. From this point of view, these explanations only say that Niu Jin has no faults, but it is not a bad posthumous title.

Jia Lian closed his eyes and covered his rage.

Although he focused mainly on practicing martial arts, marching and fighting, Wang Yi still had a close grasp of his education, and he had also fantasized about what posthumous title he would get in the future. Therefore, he knew clearly that in addition to the three meanings that Zhang Xu referred to, there was another meaning - Hui Wunei was Ping!

This is a very severe accusation! It means that Niu Jin is not worthy of his posthumous title at all, but he can't resist the emperor, so these civil servants played a word game.

Zhang Xu, who didn't know that Jia Lian was already in anger, noticed the gloomy gaze of Emperor Wen of Zhou and hated the grand scholars who pushed him out, but he still had to continue saying: "Powerful but not fierce is called Zhuang, and strict respect is called Zhuang." At the same time, a sincere and generous person is called Zhuang, a polite person is called Zhuang, and a strong and polite person is called Zhuang. This is better, it is obvious that Niu Jin is a narrow-minded person, arrogant and arrogant, and rude person!

"The following two words were thought out for the sake of the general." Seeing that Emperor Wen of Zhou's face became deeper, Zhang Xu cleverly picked himself out and said quickly: "Gang Ji Su Bu is called Jing, and the dignity and pride are called Jing."

"The ambition to defeat the enemy is called courage, leading righteousness to die in the country is called courage, and striving for righteousness to become righteousness is called courage." It is very consistent with Niu Jin's method of death.

"Please make a decision!" After quickly saying the last word "Yang", Zhang Xu immediately bowed and did not even dare to wipe away the cold sweat from his forehead.

"Liang'er, what do you think of these five words?" Emperor Wen of Zhou reluctantly calmed down. He now remembered that Zhang Xu was Jia Lian's relative.

"Swish!" Jia Lian said bluntly: "Except for the last two words, the first three..."

He stared at the five great ministers of the palace who were standing at the forefront of all officials and said word by word: "It's all... dogs and farts!"

As soon as these words were spoken, all officials were in an uproar.

Unlike the gloating of military officers, they were almost awesome. Jia Lian spoke too presumptuously, too upright, and too disregarded the civil servants. Even Jingtai, the head of the civil servants with the most profound tolerance, could not help but change his expression.

There are many censors who are supporters of these Grand Secretary. They felt humiliated and immediately left the list and said sternly: "Your Majesty! The second son of Duke Rong dared to insult the important officials in the court in public. It is really rude! He should be dismissed from his military post and be punished thirty! He will serve as a warning to others!!"

"Please give an order!" In addition to the princes, the five "humiliated" Grand Secretary of the Palace, and a few of Wang Yi's confidants, most of the civil servants present also bent down and asked Emperor Wen of Zhou to send Jia Lian a speech.

Jia Lian was not afraid at all, his lips raised, looking fearless.

When Li Tianlang saw Jia Lian squinting at him, he felt as if he was disdainful. He had seen Jia Lian get along with the young man-like and the most humble eunuch in the East Factory, with a gentle expression, always laughing loudly, and he had a contemptuous face towards himself, the noble prince, and could not get along with him everywhere. Of course, Li Tianlang would not think that it would be a problem for who would take the lead every time.

He said kindly: "Brother Jia Lian has just returned from the battlefield. He is young and promising and has made great contributions. At this time, what does it look like when he passed the stick? It would be better to compare the merits and demerits." He had already received the news that Jia Lian's performance on the battlefield this time was very dazzling. I wish he could erase his merits like this.

"No!" Xu Yijing, the right assistant censor of the Censorate, strongly opposed it.

They did not ask Jia Lian to blame him for a small "insult". These old foxes faced each other in the court every day, pointing at the mulberry and scolding each other every sentence, and never giving up until they stepped on the other party's feet. Each of them had their faces as thick as a city wall. How could they get angry for one or two "child words"!

If Jia Lian was not the one who "insulted" them today, even any small general would have jumped out.

"Zhu Zigui in the court is all scholars." The status of civil servants in the court has always been higher than that of military officers. Even a small sixth-rank chief officer dares to write a letter to impeach the first-rank general of the dynasty. In so many countries in the past dynasties, if the world is peaceful and the world is peaceful, the status of military generals will continue to decline, and the status of civil officials will continue to rise; but if there is war outside, the status of military generals will continue to rise, and even overwhelming civil officials.

Regardless of their respective parties, the civil servants in the court supported which prince they were supporting, and whether there was any disagreement in their political views, but they knew that only after All-Enity City suppressed the military officers and maintained their status, they could feel at ease to continue the internal strife.

"Young people are so popular, it's just a word. Why should I delve into it in depth?" Li Tianyan said calmly.

"When it comes to the fourth prince, it is precisely because the Jia family is young that they should pay more attention! Jia Junhou has been deeply grateful to the emperor and must teach him to be modest and cautious from a young age, so that he will not be arrogant and do not listen to others' words in the future." Xu Yijing saw that it was Li Tianyan's words, but he still dared not retreat at all, but he replied politely.

"I see that the Jia family has said nothing wrong. The general has made a lot of contributions to the country in his life, and he has the posthumous title you have prepared this time... Except for the Jing and Yong of Shangshu, others are really a bit bullying. I am afraid that it will cause dissatisfaction after it is passed on to let hundreds of thousands of soldiers in the Great Zhou know about it." Li Tianjie's thin lips opened slightly, and his coldness was even better than Li Tianyan.

"The Seventh Prince's words are wrong! According to this dynasty..." Xu Yijing knew that Li Tianjie had no reputation in the dynasty, and never heard that Emperor Wen of Zhou particularly favored him, so he wanted to raise his head and speak hard.

"Enough!" Emperor Zhou Wen shouted bluntly.

"Jia Lian was right! These three words are all garbage!"

Emperor Wen of Zhou looked at the civil servants coldly. He knew clearly what the civil servants were thinking. Niu Jin's posthumous title was the first link of their temptation.

To ask him to dismiss his military post, thirty-year-old responsibilities are the second step of temptation.

"The imperial edict, General Niu Jin is determined to be sharp and strong, and his spirit is strong. He is pure and not rude, and his ambition is Zhenzhen. He is detailed and good at submissive and righteous, and has good conduct and benevolent. He practices straight and has no hidden hiddenness, and has a foundation. He has two wisdoms and two strategies. He is the general of art. He is the general of the border. He has repeatedly made contributions. He has experienced difficulties and obstacles and has been exhausted. Unfortunately, he was secretly arrowed in his body and died suddenly. Before his death, he still tried his best to supervise his troops and visited the frontiers. He was actually Xuan Lao's superior and forgot his body. He was rewarded with 100,000 taels of silver in the treasury, manager of funerals, and rewarded the vacancies. The official was the foundation of the minister, built a special temple to pay sacrifices in time, and used a loyal soul. I will go to drink in person. All the people were given a reward of the crown prince and a salary punishment, and all the people were given a reward. He was posthumously awarded the crown prince's tutor, and was given a posthumous title of Wu Zhong, and he also praised his son Niu Jizong as a first-rank imperial guard and a duke of the first-rank country." Emperor Wen of Zhou opened his mouth without blinking and said that he was full of words.

This imperial edict made all civil and military officials stunned.

The military officer was just a long and confused discussion that could not understand Zhou Wendi and had a difficult vocabulary.

However, the civil servants understood everything, but they were all shocked because they understood it.

Damn it! Your Majesty, you are too... The civil servants worked hard to swallow the three words shamelessness back into their throats, looking at Emperor Wen of Zhou with complicated faces, as if they knew them, the emperor who had been in power for decades on the first day.
