It couldn't be helped, the symbolic meaning of Yongzhou Overseer was too strong.
What was Li Er's position before the change of Xuanwu Sect? King of Qin, General of Tiance Mansion, Yongzhou Animal Husbandry, Shangshu Ling.
From then on, these four official positions had a special meaning. No one had ever obtained these four official positions again.
There was no need to mention the King of Qin. He would no longer confer the title of King of Qin on the prince.
Since the Heavenly Policy Manor had been disbanded, it would naturally be gone.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs was the most important department of the imperial court, and the Minister of Foreign Affairs was the head of the Prime Minister. What should they do? Minister Zuo Pushe obtained all the power of the original Shangshu Ling.
It was even simpler for the governor of Yongzhou to be the governor of Yongzhou.
Now, Li Er directly conferred Li You the title of Yongzhou Prefecture Overseer! What was he trying to do? This was much more symbolic than Li You being the final offering to the heavens.
Apart from the symbolic meaning, the practical benefits were also very great!
The Prefecture Overseer of Yongzhou was responsible for handling the affairs of the twenty-three counties in the capital region. He ruled over a million people and was the governor of a province with the greatest authority and the highest status in the world. His rank was from the second rank, higher than many prime ministers.
Furthermore, the Prefecture Overseer of Yongzhou had the authority to mobilize all the prefecture soldiers in Yongzhou!
Since the Qin and Han Dynasties, the most elite soldiers in the world had come from Yongzhou.
As the governor of Yongzhou who controlled 50,000 soldiers, he could be said to be one of the strongest commanders.
Most importantly, most of the 50,000 soldiers were stationed around Chang 'an, and some were stationed directly in Chang' an.
If they were to rebel, there was no more suitable position than this.
The capital of the prime minister was far from being superior!
Li Er's reward for Li You was really too generous.
But at the same time, it was almost equivalent to Li Er announcing to the world: He thought highly of Li You. Li You was very likely to be his successor!
Abolishing the legitimate son and establishing a concubine…was this appropriate?
The ministers discussed animatedly.
Many people agreed that Haotian had responded to King Qi's request, which meant that King Qi was destined to be the Crown Prince.
There were also some who opposed it: "The eldest son should be established by the eldest son, not by the virtuous; It was the most common inheritance method in the world. Now that the Crown Prince had not lost his virtue, how could he be easily deposed? Once this example was set, there would be endless trouble in the future!
There were also some who remained neutral.
Of course, no matter how the officials discussed, no one took the initiative to stand up and express their opposition to Li Er.
After all, Li Er did not directly say that he wanted to depose Li Chengqian and make Li You the Crown Prince. It was just the title of Yongzhou Overseer, what was wrong with that?
However, Crown Prince Li Chengqian could no longer endure it.
Zhangsun Wuji had suffered consecutive defeats just now and had already lost Li Chengqian's trust!
Li Er's sealing completely ignited Li Chengqian's anger!
This time, he wanted to use his own strength to suppress Li You and let the world know who was the Crown Prince of the Great Tang, the future successor of the empire!
Immediately, Li Chengqian ignored Zhangsun Wuji's continuous hints and roared,""Imperial Father, your son thinks that this matter is extremely inappropriate!”
"Hmm? What's wrong?"
"Yongzhou Prefecture Overseer is in charge of 50,000 Yongzhou Prefecture soldiers in the capital region. Don't forget, Fifth Brother's mother is Concubine Yin. The Yin family and our Li family have a blood feud! As the grandson of the Underworld Master, Fifth Brother had to be on guard. How could he be allowed to control the army? Father, you are muddle-headed…"
Li Chengqian thought that his words were very reasonable.
Concubine Yin's father was called Yin Shishi. At the end of the Sui Dynasty, Li Yuan rebelled against the Sui Dynasty, and some of his family members remained in Chang 'an.
The Underworld Master was the Chang 'an General of the Great Sui Dynasty. He had directly beheaded Li Yuan's youngest son, Li Zhiyun. Not only that, but he was also ordered by Emperor Sui to dig up the Li family's ancestral grave.
After the city fell, Li Yuan naturally killed the Underworld Master. However, Li Yuan did not make things too difficult for the son and daughter that the Underworld Master had left behind. Yin Yue'e, the daughter of the Yin World Master, was given to Li Shimin as his concubine by Li Yuan and gave birth to Li You.
It was not an exaggeration to say that there was a deep blood feud between the Li family and the Yin family.
However, what Li Chengqian did not expect was that before he could finish speaking, he heard a furious roar in his ear,""Idiot!"
Immediately after!
Pa!
A heavy slap landed on his face.
It hurt!
It really hurt!
He had never suffered such physical pain since he was young!
However, Li Chengqian could no longer care about the pain now. That was because he noticed that Li Er's eyes were spewing fire and he was fiercely waiting for him. It was as if the last slap would fall at any moment!
"Father, why did you hit me?" Li Chengqian had never seen Li Erfa so angry before. His face was filled with disbelief.
"Hmph, why?"
Li Er's chest kept rising and falling, his face ashen. He thought to himself, There are too many reasons to hit you.
First of all, what did you mean by that? Remind me that You 'er and I are not one? Then what about the miracle that the heavens had just sent down? Is it completely unrelated to me? How can I wash away the stain of the Black Tortoise Sect incident? How can I be remembered for eternity?
I can turn a blind eye to you keeping catamites. You broke the law, I can forgive you. I can even turn a blind eye to you making friends with ministers.
However, the only thing I can't do is to stop me from becoming a wise ruler for eternity!
This is my reverse scale!
God would kill whoever stood in his way! His own brother was in the way, and he even killed his own brother!
If you weren't my son, I would have killed you long ago!
Also, he wouldn't let You 'er take control of the army. What about the Turks? If you don't use a peerless warrior like You 'er, are you, Li Chengqian, going to risk your life against the Turks?
As for the possibility of You 'er rebelling? What a joke! Yongzhou's chief historian, Yang Gongren, had been famous for decades, and now he was even older. How could it be so easy for You-er to control the entire Yongzhou Overseer Office?
In addition-
"Do you know what it means to be close or distant?" Li Er said fiercely. Would anyone kill their own father to avenge their grandfather? Besides, it was the Underworld Master who killed the innocent back then. Our Li family repaid evil with good. Even if they wanted revenge, it should be the Li family taking revenge on the Yin family, right? What were you thinking? Is your brain full of water?"
"But…but…"
Li Chengqian was worried and confused. He never thought that there would be so many loopholes in his logic. He was speechless for a moment.
"Alright, there's no buts!" "Who can't see through such a simple truth?" Li Er interrupted sternly. Why are you still so stubborn? I think your eyes are blinded by jealousy!”
Pausing for a moment, he looked around and said,"From today onwards, the Crown Prince will be grounded for half a year and will be cultivating in the Eastern Palace!
What was that? Ground for half a year?
In just a day, Li You participated in the worship ceremony and was conferred the title of Yong Prefecture Overseer. He was also bestowed the title of marriage to Wei Yuechan. How much would he grow in half a year?
At this moment, Li Chengqian felt as if a basin of cold water had been poured over his head in winter, his heart turning cold from the front to the back.
However, seeing Li Er's stern gaze on him, Li Chengqian understood that he could not make Li Er angry anymore.
Otherwise, not to mention half a year later, he wouldn't even be able to keep his position as the Crown Prince now!
Alright!
As long as there was life, there was hope!
I'll endure it!
He had to endure it even if he couldn't help it!
Li Chengqian didn't dare to grit his teeth, because if he did, he would make a sound and be discovered by Li Er. He did not dare to look at Li Er again, afraid that Li Er would notice the hatred in his eyes.
He pinched his thigh hard to maintain his last bit of rationality. He bowed and said,"Your son…obeys!"
"Then what about the matter of You 'er being the chief historian of Yongzhou?”
"Your son…has no objections!”
"Very good." Li Er nodded in satisfaction and said,""Fang Xuanling, draft the decree!"
……
……
Zhenguan three years, April 18th, the day of the Tang Dynasty's Summer Sacrifice.
The King of Yan, Li You, fought hard against the three heroes and proposed the plan of the Tang Dynasty Bank. The unity of heaven and man moved the heavens and was granted the marriage of the world's most beautiful woman, Wei Yuechan. He was granted the title of King of Qi and Yongzhou Mu.
It was a brilliant feat that shocked the world!
