The Strongest Imperial Grandson of the Great Tang Dynasty

Chapter 50 Giving to the Palace Maid



The eunuch Bingbi who was taking notes next to him was also very frightened. Although these people had no rights in the court, they often recorded imperial edicts for Li Shimin and had some knowledge of politics. Killing the guard of a foreign minister was a big deal. It's a bit serious. To put it more seriously, it may be a prelude to war.

"The general of the left, Hou Junji, misbehaved and acted recklessly, so he was demoted to the second rank and retained. His eldest son, Hou Zuo, had no benefit in the official affairs of the Ministry of Revenue, so he was transferred to serve in front of the Liangzhou army."

Li Xiang did not express surprise at this imperial edict, because he had already obtained the evidence that Hou Junji instigated the prince to rebel. Even if he did it more severely, it would be very normal. It's just that Hou Junji didn't know it himself, so he didn't know it. He regarded himself as the great general on the left side of the imperial court.

"The prince's concubine, Mrs. Liu, has done great service in raising Li Xiang. She was granted the title of Third Rank Liangdi and assisted in managing the East Palace."

When he heard this imperial edict, Li Xiang was a little surprised. His mother had just moved from the ninth rank to the fifth rank, and now she has reached the third rank directly. You must know that this is the highest position for a prince's concubine, especially assisting the prince's concubine in managing the East Palace. This She is almost the crown prince's deputy concubine, one step away from the crown princess.

If this imperial edict had been promulgated at other times, perhaps everyone would not have thought too much about it, but at this moment, after just punishing Hou Junji and his son, and immediately promulgating this edict, it means that the position of the Crown Princess is also unstable, whether in the court or in the middle of the court. Ministers and common people all now understand the future of the Hou family a little bit.

"Grandfather, Hou Junji is deeply rooted in the army. If he is tempted to rebel..."

As soon as Li Xiang said this, he immediately shut his mouth. Suddenly he understood, wasn't the emperor's successive moves just to force Hou Junji to rebel? If he didn't make any moves, the emperor would definitely make more powerful moves.

Hou Junji had already been dissatisfied with the emperor, otherwise he would not have instigated Li Chengqian to rebel. For such a person, how could Li Shimin keep him? But if he is punished because of this matter, the people of the world may be dissatisfied. After all, he is also a meritorious minister of the Tang Dynasty.

Therefore, the emperor begins to cut his wings at this moment and force him to rebel. If he catches them all, no one in the world will have anything to say.

Li Xiang deeply felt at this moment that although he came from the modern era a thousand years later, when it comes to this strategy, compared with the old emperor in front of him, there is still a big gap. At the same time, he also put away his own With contempt, we can never underestimate the heroes of this era in the future.

"Go back and have a good rest. Change the dressing on time these days. Come to the palace when you have nothing to do and chat with me more."

Li Shimin had a resolute look on his face just now, but now when he looked at Li Xiang, his eyes showed more kindness. After all, facing his grandson, even the ruthless emperor was just an ordinary grandfather at this moment.

When Li Xiang walked out of the hall, Wang De followed from the side.

"Does the steward have something to say?"

Although Li Xiang didn't know what Wang De said before, he could guess it. If Wang De hadn't mentioned his injury, how would Li Shimin know about it? Wang De has already made the intention to come closer. This person is extremely important, so Li Xiang will naturally not push him out.

"Your Highness, stay here. These are Miss Meng Ling and Miss Meng Qin. They are the maids beside the Queen. After the Queen left, she has been living alone in the palace. Long live the Lord specially ordered the old slave to bring these two people. From now on, they will serve Your Highness. The rest The eight little maids all came from the Queen's Palace and were brought back together by His Highness."

After hearing this, Li Xiang frowned and looked back in the direction of the emperor. He had arranged for ten maids without saying a word just now.

Li Xiang had learned about the situation of the harem in the Tang Dynasty in books. Other dynasties had harems with three thousand beauties, but the Tang Dynasty far exceeded this number. During the Li Shimin period, it was relatively restrained, but the number also exceeded 3,000. During the reign of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, this number exceeded 10,000.

Therefore, for Li Shimin, it was not a big deal to reward ten maids casually, not to mention that they were from Li Xiang's grandmother's palace and were originally intended for these princes.

Li Shimin knew that the maids around Li Xiang were all arranged by the Crown Princess. Of course, as an emperor, he could not arbitrarily interfere with the lives of his sons and grandsons, so he could only give them to others.

According to the current rules of the Tang Dynasty, no matter how much you love the woman you found before, when the emperor or queen gives you someone from the palace, then this person will be the most noble, and everyone else will have to be ranked behind this person. .

"I have met His Highness."

The two girls Mengling and Mengqin gently bowed to Li Xiang and saluted. The eight little girls behind them also learned a lot. After all, they were trained in the Queen's Palace. They know etiquette better than ordinary women. As for their appearance, , worthy of the four words "Shen Yu Luo Yan".

"In that case, I'd like to thank the manager."

While he was talking, a piece of jade material came into Wang De's hand. Wang De just touched it lightly without even looking at it, and he knew that it was a good piece of prediction, worth at least thirty guan.

After all, he is a wealthy person. He can give the emperor one hundred thousand guan a year without blinking an eye. To reward a servant like me, it is 30 guan at a time. Anyway, every time I see His Highness, he is always empty-handed.

"What did your Highness say? The families of these girls are all working as farmers in the imperial village. I also took the deeds. Your Highness only needs to send someone to the Yeting Bureau (the Tang Dynasty's management of palace maids and slaves). After completing the handover procedures, these people will be in the hands of His Highness."

In order to ensure that the palace maids are obedient, the whole family is usually brought into the palace as slaves, so when a person is given, the whole family is also given. Of course, there are also times when a palace maid is given alone. If you want to use it with confidence, just We have to get all the family members of this palace maid. Although it is a little troublesome, the palace maid will never have second thoughts. After all, the whole family is under control. If something happens, it will not be the one who loses his head. You alone, but all of your family.

When Li Xiang led people back to the East Palace, Li Chengqian felt sad for a while when he saw these two palace maids. These two palace maids were trained by his mother since they were young. They were originally going to give one to Li Chengqian and one to Li Tai. Unexpectedly, they both It all belongs to Li Xiang.

Although Li Chengqian was jealous, the emperor gave this to Li Xiang alone. If he had other thoughts, the emperor would probably not let him go. What's more, Li Xiang's mother had just been promoted to the third rank of Liangdi. No matter what the reason, he You can't have anything to do with other women at this time...
