Chapter 677

A martial arts Su family emerged in vain, and Chengqian did not sleep all night after hearing the news.

Qin Lang ended his morning court and went to the Zhengshi Hall to discuss matters first, then went to the Ministry of War to sit in the yamen. At noon, I ate Roujiamo mutton soup in the Ministry of War canteen, and only went to the East Palace to preside over the affairs of the East Palace in the afternoon.

Cheng Qian was impatient when he saw Qin Lang. As soon as he saw him, he pulled him aside to talk.

"Teacher, have you heard it?"

"What did you hear?" Qin Lang knew what he was talking about when he saw him, but he still asked clearly.

"It's said that there is a rumor that the saint chose Secretary Su as a concubine for me." Cheng Qian, who had just performed the ceremony of adding a crown, now he has tied his hair, wearing a long-winded crown, and a sword around his waist, which is much more heroic. His face was red and his eyes were full of nervousness.

"Oh, there is still this? But your highness has already been in power, so it is normal to seek marriage."

Cheng Qian blushed and said, "I just want to know how that little girl from Su's family!"

"Your Highness is afraid that you want to know if Miss Su is beautiful?"

Qin Lang smiled, "A beautiful lady, a gentleman is a good match, normal!"

"Can the teacher ask me for help?"

Qin Lang looked at Cheng Qian's appearance, no different from those young men who had just fallen in love in later generations. "Why would I find an opportunity for Your Highness to let Your Highness take a look at it by yourself?"

"Isn't that good?"

Su Jian's elder brother Su Xu married Chengqian's aunt Princess Nanchang, and Su Jian adopted his son Su Gui to Su Xu as his son. If Chengqian married Su Jian's daughter, it would be a relative.

"In this way, I will invite Su Xu and Su Lian to visit our mansion, let them bring their families with me, and find an opportunity to see Miss Su with your own eyes, so that you can save you from worrying about your heart and sleeping day and night."

"I'm not worried about it, I can't sleep day and night, I'm just a little curious." Cheng Qian was a little stubborn.

Qin Lang laughed, "Okay, I'll arrange this matter. Your Highness just needs to wait for the good news."

Su Xu is also Qin Lang's uncle, so it is normal to invite him to be a guest.

Qin Lang held Chengqian's hand and came to Chongjiao Hall. Because Chengqian had already served in the Yuan Dynasty, Chengqian has officially taken charge of the affairs of the Eastern Palace. Qin Lang, the teacher, also stepped down to assist.

Today, the officials from the East Palace also came to the hall early.

Everyone was very happy. Because of the Qianyuan period, the emperor not only issued an edict to the world for amnesty, but also gave special rewards to the officials of the East Palace. The eighth and nineth ranks were given a level of additional ranks, sixth and seventh ranks were given a level of barons, and the fourth and fifth ranks were given a level of additional ranks, and the viscounts were given a level of additional ranks, and each had money and silk rewards.

Of course I am happy to be promoted to the title.

The crown prince takes power, worship!

"Crown Prince Zhan serves Qin Lang, pay homage to His Highness the Crown Prince!"

Chengqian stood up and stretched out his hand to help him.

"The Order of the Prince will be issued. From now on, we will be specially awarded the Kaifu Yi and the General of the Cavalry of the Three Secretaries and the Secretary of the Central Secretariat, the Minister of War, the Secretary of the Eastern Palace, the Secretary of the Sikong, the Prince's Grand Tutor, and the Duke of Wei praised him and said no to him!"

"Come, give the guardian seat!"

Qin Lang received courtesy and brought him a bed.

"Yu Zhining, the Duke of Liyang County, the General of the Sanqi General, paid a visit to the prince!"

"The attendant of the Sanqi, the scholar of Chongxianguan, and the left concubine of the prince, Du Zhenglun, the Marquis of Nanyang County, to pay homage to the prince!"

"The attendant of the Sanqi, the Imperial College, the priest of the Imperial College, and the prince's right concubine, Kong Yingda, the prince's son, paid homage to the prince!"

"The attendant of the Sanqi, the right concubine of the prince, and the Linghu Defen, the son of Pengcheng County, pays homage to the prince!"

"The attendant of the Sanqi, the young prince, and Zhang Xuansu, the son of Yuxiang County, pays homage to the prince!"

"The attendant of the Sanqi, the young minister of the prince, and Li Baiyao, the son of Anping County, pays homage to the prince!"

"The Left Guard of the Crown Prince was led by the Linqing County Duke Su Lie to pay homage to the Crown Prince!"

"The prince's right guard led the prince, and the Duke of Danyang County, Li, pays homage to the prince!"

······

One by one, the officials from the East Palace came forward to meet him. The scene was grand and the Eastern Palace team was very well equipped, which was a complete small court.

Zhan Shi Mansion, Zuochunfang, Jialing Temple, Zuo Geng Temple, Pusi San Temple, and the Prince's Left Guards lead the sixth commander, and the left and right sect leader, and the left and right sect leader, etc., did not lead the four commander.

In addition, the Sixth Shang of the Imperial Palace established the three sects and three sects of the crown prince.

With Li Shimin's continuous strengthening, the institutions of the Eastern Palace were not only institutions that educated the crown prince and serve the prince, but also a small court with strong ruling ability. In addition to being smaller, their functions were completely imitated by the three divisions and three dukes of the central court, three provinces, six ministries, nine temples, five supervisors, and one twelve guards.

There are only officials of grades and about 2,250 formal ranks, which does not include a large number of low-level servants and soldiers from the Eastern Palace.

There are also six bureaus under Zuochunfang, including Sijing, Dianshen, and Chongxian Hall.

The greatest power of the Eastern Palace is that when the emperor is unable to take power in the face of patrol or is ill or in war, the crown prince will govern the government and represent the emperor to decide on military and national affairs.

The earliest crown prince was the regent of the Tang Dynasty after Li Shimin launched the Xuanwu Gate Mutiny and actually seized the highest power of the Tang Dynasty. Li Yuan was forced to issue an edict to let Li Shimin take charge of the regent as the crown prince.

During Li Shimin's tour of Luoyang, Li Shimin also asked Chengqian to stay in Chang'an to supervise the country.

During Li Shimin's reign as the prince, he used the officials of the Eastern Palace as the officials who handled national affairs. He used the official document format of the prince system to issue documents to the whole country and followed the government in the Eastern Palace.

The prince issued a document to call the order, but not the edict.

Although Li Shimin was not forced to Chengqian's regent as Li Yuan, he also intended to cultivate the Eastern Palace. Therefore, he successively appointed the Prince's Son to the Eastern Palace, and established a new Prince's Siyilang under Youchunfang, such as the Minister of the Menxia Province.

The crown prince Sizhi was also appointed, such as the Censorate of the Censorate and the Chief Secretary.

Even the format of the official documents in the Eastern Palace is detailed, which is completely similar to the format of the central government of the court. For any book of punishment and discussion, the crown prince also writes the order, the secretary of the prince, and the prince, and the concubines of the prince, sign the name, proclaim, report, conduct, and write the day.

In addition, the emperor also set up a special system. When the emperor was away and ordered the prince to supervise the country, the capital would stay in the prime minister of the Political Affairs Hall or senior officials of the three provinces and six ministries, and would also be the official position of the Eastern Palace.

For example, if Li Shimin wanted to go on a tour and ordered the country to be supervised by Qian, the remaining senior officials would temporarily give him a part-time job in the East Palace, such as adding the third rank of prince, or prosecutors, secretary of the school, concubines, etc., and cooperate with the officials of the East Palace to assist the prince.

When the prince was reigning the country, the highest authority in the country was no longer the Zhengshi Hall, but the Zhengshi Hall and the East Palace jointly presided over the decision-making, and the Shangshu Province and the Zhanshi Mansion jointly made decisions.

The official documents originally approved by the emperor were all transferred to the crown prince for approval.

During the last two years when the emperor led all officials to eat Luoyang, although he ordered the Eastern Palace to supervise the country, Chengqian had not yet added a crown and the Yuan Dynasty at that time, so it could not be considered a real ruler. The government affairs were mainly handled by the left-behind prime ministers.

From now on, Chengqian can already take power. If the emperor goes on a patrol again to supervise the prince, Chengqian will truly take power. The officials of the Eastern Palace will also take power together with the Political Affairs Hall and the three provinces.

This time, the original positions of the Secretariat and Huangmen Assistant Minister of the main Eastern Palace officials such as Yu Zhining were removed and replaced by the position of the Secretariat of the Sanqi, and were not demoted but promoted. Although the Secretariat and Huangmen Assistant Minister were second-rank officials, they were only fourth-rank officials. The Secretariat of the Sanqi assistant was a third-rank official, and they directly changed to purple robes.

The main job of the Sanqi Changshi is to advise the faults and the attendants has no real power. But the key point is to the word attendants, which makes them become the emperor's attendants, so as to be the additional officials of several Eastern Palace officials, it is even more noble.

The emperor removed them from their posts in the three provinces, which also allowed them to focus on the main position of the East Palace, and specially promoted the third-rank position. They could also serve the emperor at any time and strengthen their connection with the East Palace.

Under the emperor's will, there is now a decision-making body similar to the Political Affairs Hall of the East Palace, which consists of the Prince Zhan Shi, Shao Zhan Shi, the left and right concubines, the crown prince Sizhi and the crown prince Zuowei and the three halls.

Under normal circumstances, one secretary, two young secretary, two left concubines and two right concubines, and then two princes, Sizhi, and one left and right guards, with a total of nine people.

The secretary of the army is equivalent to the Shangshu Ling, the two young soldiers are equivalent to the left and right servants, the two left concubines are equivalent to the Zhongshu Ling, the two right concubines are equivalent to the Shizhong, the two crown princes are equivalent to the Censor's Office, and the left and right guards are equivalent to the Minister of War.

The entire Eastern Palace team had more than 20,000 troops, which was quite large, with only a few thousand officials.

But only Qin Lang received praise and was not known for his special treatment. Other officials, even Yu Zhining and others, had no such treatment, and could only kneel on the cushion honestly.

Unlike Qin Lang, the bed I gave was a small bed with several tables on it, including tea and snacks.

It took a long time before the ceremony ended.

Cheng Qian sat on it and felt completely different from before.

But looking at the group of people below, he didn't know what to say.

"Your Highness, the emperor ordered that since the Crown Prince has served in the Yuan Dynasty, he will take charge of the position of Jingzhao Mu from now on, and will be in charge of the affairs of Jingzhao Prefecture, and will be in charge of the administration, justice, and capture thieves, taxes, and household registration."

The emperor's decree said that he was in charge of the affairs of the Yin and Zheng's capital, and encouraged him to teach the people by teaching them. He accepted all the lawsuits in the capital and listened to them. He made decisions on small matters and reported them to big matters.

Li Shimin's meaning is very simple. He asked the prince who had already served Yuan to do something and directly handed over the entire capital to Chengqian to practice. Originally, Jingzhaomu was the governor of Yongzhou. Li Shimin had held this position before, but he was just a remote commander and a nomination.

But now Li Shimin wants Chengqian to truly preside over the administration and judicial power of Chang'an. Jingzhao Prefecture has the jurisdiction of Chang'an and more than 20 surrounding counties and a population of one million.

This Jingzhao Mu is a local official who combines administration and justice, and a central official with the status of a court official.

Jingzhao Prefecture manages the entire Jingxiu area, but the focus is still on Chang'an City. Because Chang'an is the imperial capital of the capital, arresting thieves, cracking down on powerful people, maintaining public order, and ensuring peace are the primary tasks.

Jingzhao Prefecture therefore has a privilege, and does not have to be subject to gradual appeals like other local governments. For example, Jingzhao Prefecture has the power to directly judge and deal with it. For example, after the prisoner is sentenced to death, he can be executed directly without reporting to the Ministry of Justice or Dali Temple for review.

Of course, Jingzhao Prefecture also has the right to exercise punishments against some special criminals under the order of the emperor.

This is an important position. Before, Jingzhao Mu was in charge of the remote control, but actually the General of Jingzhao Yin was in charge of the affairs of the office, and Shao Yin was in charge of the affairs of the office. Now, Li Shimin directly asked the prince to personally command the affairs of Jingzhao and personally took charge of the administrative and judicial power of the capital.

The emperor also specially appointed the Prince of the Eastern Palace, Qin Lang, as the Yin of Jingzhao, and the left concubine Yu Zhining as the Young Master.

He directly handed over Jingzhao Mansion to the East Palace for management.

First, we will hand over more than 20 counties in the capital to the prince and the Eastern Palace to manage it, so as to train our abilities and prepare for the future of more than 1,000 counties in the world.
