Chapter 414 What if I changed my surname?
Listening to Li Zhenglong thanking him, Yang Ze smiled and said, "Little Prince, you will be dissatisfied with this. We are our own people. If the servants don't help you, who else can you help? Only when you get what you want, can you get what you want!"
This is a big truth to him. Li Zhenglong used to not like to listen to such straightforward words, all about collusion between interests, but now it sounds extremely pleasant. There is no reason, but he really gained benefits from it!
Yang Ze gave him an idea. At this time, we should not just win people's hearts. Empress Dugu should also have some explanation. Although it is dark now and it is inconvenient to enter the city, it does not mean that we cannot enter the city. Li Zhenglong should send someone back to the city to report this matter to Empress Dugu, so that Empress Dugu can calm down. After all, something happened to the army, so as the emperor, how could he not be worried.
After hearing this, Li Zhenglong agreed and reported the matter earlier, which would be beneficial to him. Yang Ze taught him a few more words, and Li Zhenglong called one of his confidant guards and explained it.
The guard got the order and returned to the city immediately. It would be fine if the city gate was closed. Ask the guards to take a big basket, he could enter the city when he sat in the basket. It was impossible to see the emperor. But through the imperial guards, he reported a letter and said that as soon as Li Zhenglong arrived, the soldiers and generals of the Right Shenwu Army were settled. Li Zhenglong was doing various after-care and talking to the soldiers and generals. This made Li Zhenglong effective in doing things. Queen Dugu would definitely think that Li Zhenglong was capable and lay the foundation for him to take over the Right Shenwu Army.
There is nothing special happening in the barracks. In short, just like the time and space where Yang Ze came, the leader came to see the soldiers, then talked, listened to the soldiers' voices, solved some difficulties, and so on. There is no need to make detailed statements one by one.
Yang Ze accompanied Li Zhenglong and held a bonfire party in the barracks of the Right Shenwu Army. Although the entire barracks were burned to the point of being black and gray, the soldiers and generals didn't care, and Li Zhenglong didn't care. Anyway, they were not burning their homes. If the barracks were gone, they would just be built. Everyone ate and drank, and even had a strongman performing sumo wrestling. In short, it was a joy to be enjoyable.
Let’s talk about it, the guard ran back to the city, and went outside the palace to tell the matter to the imperial guards. The guards reported it to the eunuchs on duty, and then reported it to the Queen Dugu.
Today, when I watched the debate meeting at Dacien Temple, Queen Dugu felt very tired. She returned to her bedroom early. She lay on the dragon bed to rest, while Cai Cai gently beat her legs.
While serving the emperor's grandmother, Cai Cai said, "I don't know how my cousin went to the barracks and handled it. It's so late, and he hasn't come back yet."
Queen Dugu smiled and said, "How could it be so fast? Even if you are acting, you will have to come back tomorrow. But are you not worried about your cousin, are you worried about Yang Ze?"
Cai Cai shook her head and said, "I don't worry about him. If nothing happens, then don't worry. If something happens, he will run faster than the rabbit! But the child was thinking that Yang Ze would definitely send someone back. In terms of time, it should be almost the same!"
Queen Dugu sighed and said, "It's probably going to be soon. Even if it's too late, they will send someone back. In short, they will just praise your cousin! Caicai, do you want your cousin to take charge of military power? To be honest!"
She thought Cai Cai could think about it, but Cai Cai immediately replied: "Just let him take charge of military power. In fact, he just wants to gain the upper hand and be angry. Even if he has soldiers in his hands, would he dare to rebel!"
Queen Dugu had already had a plan in her mind, but she just didn't want to talk to others. Even about Caicai, she didn't want to say it. Until the last moment, she would never give up the matter of her heirs. Because, not only did she think about the people of the Li family, but she also wanted to think about the people of the Dugu family. It was just that the people of the Dugu family were not outstanding, but in this era, she valued surnames very much.
"Then let him have the upper hand, just because he is afraid that he will think too much!" said the Queen Dugu, and was silent for a while. Suddenly, she said, "Caicai, you said, if you follow the surname of the emperor's grandmother and change your surname to Dugu, would you like?"
Cai Cai was stunned. She had never thought about such a thing. She didn't know how to answer. Can she change her surname?
After saying that, Empress Dugu shook her head and said, "Why would you like to change your father's surname to Dugu! Well, it's not good. I have to consider this matter carefully!"
Cai Cai couldn't answer, and she couldn't answer such words. She was very confused. Can the surname be changed? Well, it should be possible. She has seen many poor people in Zhenxi who are slaves to wealthy families, so she changed her surname to the master. But her father Li Yan was an emperor, and he was definitely not a slave.
The Dugu Queen closed her eyes and rested and asked her son to change her surname would probably be opposed by all the civil and military officials of the court. She should not be able to continue to promote it. Moreover, even Li Yan would not be willing. Although the eldest son had a weak personality, he would probably die than agree to it when encountering the change of his surname.
Cai Cai was silent for a while and suddenly said, "If the child's father changed his surname to Dugu, it would be equivalent to the emperor's grandfather's marriage. I heard that only men who married into marriage would not follow his surname!"
Queen Dugu opened her eyes and shouted, but she didn't think about this. When Cai Cai reminded her, she burst into laughter. Yes, if this is true, then the late emperor, wouldn't her husband become a son-in-law, and she became a rich woman who recruits husbands!
"This is absolutely impossible, it will damage the reputation of the late emperor!" Queen Dugu smiled and said, "It's because I think less and didn't think of this."
Cai Cai also laughed and said, "The reputation of the emperor and grandfather must not be damaged. The father and the prince do not need to change his surname. However, others can do it, for example, let Li Zhenglong change his surname..."
She was a little embarrassed to say that if Li Zhenglong could change his surname, wouldn’t it mean that the Xiangwang married into a marriage!
Queen Dugu heard it even more funny and said, "That's OK, let me think about it!"
She suddenly thought, it is not good for her sons to change her surname, and it is not good for her grandson to change her surname. As for her daughter, it should be easier for her daughter to follow her mother's surname, or her granddaughter to follow her grandmother's surname. Girls do not need to pass on their family line, so they don't have to pay so much attention to their surnames.
She thought to herself, and couldn't help looking at Cai Cai!
At this time, someone outside the palace said, "Emperor, outsiders in the palace have spread news that the matter of the Right Shenwu Army has been almost solved by the King of Linzi, but the King of Linzi has done his best to do his best, so he will not return to the city tonight, and will talk to the soldiers and generals to comfort them!"
Judging from the sound, it turned out to be Liang Dazhong, the new chief executive. He was on duty tonight.
Queen Dugu nodded and said to Nai Nai: "If he can't solve it, that's a strange thing!" After that, she sighed. Her grandson was foolish with her. If the grandmother was not depressed, that would be a strange thing!
Seeing that Queen Dugu was unhappy, Cai Cai said, "Grandma, I'm listening to the debate today. There are many allusions in Buddhist scriptures that the child can't understand. I want to ask the Grandma..."
Queen Dugu waved her hand and said, "Actually, the emperor's grandmother couldn't understand it, and she was not in the mood to listen. She just wanted Kumatara to stay in Dacien Temple. What exactly was they debating was irrelevant."
"However, looking at the monks in the temple, it seems that this debate will be held for many days. They are so fierce that they are quarreling. Today, they are just quarreling, but they have no results. Could it be that we will go to see it tomorrow?"
Cai Cai was very worried and said that watching the fun was enough. It would be enough to watch it once or twice. If you go to see the monks quarrel for several days in a row, it would be boring!
Queen Dugu smiled and said, "How is that possible? Let's go and see it today. There is no need to go there anymore. As for the debate between Kumatara and the others... Alas, it probably won't take ten or eight years, and the debate won't come to a conclusion. I don't know if Kumatara has such a long life!"
Speaking of this, she was in a state of turmoil. She thought that she had not had a life of ten or eight years, and she was sleepy and asked Caicai to go back to rest. She lay on the dragon bed, thinking about how to pass on the royal surname Dugu. As she thought about it, she fell asleep.
The camp at the Right Shenwu Army was lively for a whole night, and the soldiers and generals in the camp did not sleep, while Li Zhenglong was excited. He answered all the soldiers and generals who came to talk to him one by one, and shook hands with everyone from time to time. In short, he did a good job in terms of intimacy.
Yang Ze kept watching silently. He felt that Li Zhenglong had a little no point in his work. If he wanted to win over the hearts of the people, he would also first win over the powerful people in his family. Looking at these soldiers and generals who were crowded closer, there should be many of them from wealthy families. To win over them well, it would be like adding more power in the court!
But Li Zhenglong had no point, and it seemed that he was not very good at trying to win over people. That's right, as a prince, he has always been the one who took the initiative to win over others. It probably hasn't been a few times, such as taking the initiative to win over himself.
Yang Ze smiled, but did not remind Li Zhenglong. Instead, he talked to Jia Xiuyu and asked the children of wealthy families in the army. Jia Xiuyu was so sleepy that he had not had a good rest for the past two days and was very upset. Yang Ze asked him about these things, but he didn't think about it carefully. Anyway, this army would not have anything to do with him in the future. Whoever likes to do whatever he wants is, he just lets do whatever he wants. When Yang Ze asked him, he said everything.
I firmly remembered the names of several people, and kept them in my heart, so that I could use them in the future.
It was not until the sun was over, and Li Zhenglong took Yang Ze and the others back to the capital. Along the way, Li Zhenglong was so proud that he was not tired at all. He said to Yang Ze: "Brother Yang, this last level is the only time left. Do you think, can the emperor appoint me as the general of the Right Shenwu Army today?"
Yang Ze thought for a while and shook his head and said, "No, according to the officials, the emperor will not make this exception. If he has to make an exception, he must have a war. Then everyone recommends you, the little prince, so that you have the opportunity to lead troops to the war. Only in this way can you get the position of general. Otherwise... the officials will be in trouble."
Li Zhenglong looked disappointed and said, "That's because I'm a little impatient. How could such a big thing be decided so quickly? But I am generous and peaceful now, and I surrender to all sides, and there is no war!"
Yang Ze smiled slightly and said, "There is no need for a problem in the border. As long as there is a small war to suppress bandits, it is OK. Even if there is not, we can arrange one!"
Li Zhenglong's eyes lit up and he said, "Can you really do this?" (To be continued...)
