If not for the fact that everyone knew Liu Xuan's identity, they would probably think that Liu Xuan was his illegitimate child!
Was it appropriate to praise a young man in court like this?
The Wang family could not sit still anymore!
After all, Liu Xuan had a grudge against the Wang family!
After Duan Lun talked about Liu Xuan's achievements, Wang Bingwen could not hold it in anymore. He stood out from the ranks and said," Lord Duan, even if Liu Xuan has made great achievements, he is still a county magistrate who is only a Seventh Grade Dragon Gate. Why do you have to commend him like this? Don't forget, the lowest official rank in the imperial court was also the sixth rank!”
"Not only that, Lord Duan, the Great Tang is vast, and there are so many prefectural and county governments. Even if we don't have tens of thousands of county magistrates, there are still thousands of them. Is it worth it to go through so much effort to publicize it in Taiji Palace, a place where court politics are discussed?”
After Wang Bingwen finished speaking, Wei Du immediately stood up and agreed,""Lord Wang is right!"
At the same time, the Left Assistant Minister of the Ministry of Justice, Wang Dan, Wang Qian from the Ministry of Works, Wang Weimin from the Ministry of Personnel, and others all stood up to express that Duan Lun's actions were very inappropriate. Moreover, he was only a seventh-grade county magistrate, and it was a little too much!
Duan Lun frowned when he saw the Wang family trying to attack Liu Xuan. He opened his mouth and was about to retort.
Cheng Yaojin couldn't hold back his bad temper anymore. He suddenly burst out," Your Majesty, I, Old Cheng, think that kid called Liu Xuan is not bad, and the things he invented are indeed very powerful. I, Old Cheng, have already tried it. I don't know if I'll be promoted or not, but Your Majesty will see it tomorrow."”
After saying that, Cheng Yaojin tilted his head and winked at Yuchi Gong, without any intention of hiding it!
When Yuchi Gong received Cheng Yaojin's signal, he did not hesitate and stood up." Your Majesty, I think what Duke Lu said makes sense.”
Whoosh!
All the officials were not fools. Who couldn't see it now?
The Wang family did not get along with Liu Xuan's people, but Wu Xun, Duan Lun, Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, and the others were all on Liu Xuan's side.
Moreover, Cheng Yaojin and Yuchi Gong always argued with each other and disagreed with each other.
But now?
The two of them were actually standing together!
Could it be that Wu Xun was standing together?
The Great Tang had many military merits, and even a small portion was still a very large number.
"Alright!"
Li Er did not want to continue arguing. He could tell that something was wrong with the Wang family today.
Most importantly, Li Er was very disappointed when he saw that the green sparrow he doted on had actually gotten involved with the aristocratic families.
"Since Minister Duan has brought this up, even if Liu Xuan is just an ordinary person, we should pay more attention to him. Moreover, Liu Xuan is not an ordinary person. There are indeed many seventh-rank County Magistrate in the Great Tang, but if we follow Minister Duan's words, then County Magistrate Liu is more than enough to become a Prefect. There's no need to fight for it. Let's go to the Ministry of Works tomorrow!”
Li Er waved his hand after he finished speaking and dismissed everyone who was arguing.
Although the Wang family members were somewhat unwilling, they still respectfully retreated.
Cheng Yaojin and the others also hurried back.
"Is there anything else to discuss today?”Li Er asked again.
However, none of the officials made a sound. They had yet to digest what had just happened.
Seeing that none of them spoke, Li Er directly let the eunuchs announce the withdrawal of the court!
"Farewell, Your Majesty!"
......
After Li Er left, the morning court session was also over. The civil and military officials left Taiji Palace in twos and threes. Then, they discussed in low voices as they left for home.
Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Chu Suiliang, and Duan Lun had gathered together.
"Brother Duan, where's County Magistrate Liu's memorial?”Fang Xuanling asked Duan Lun doubtfully.
Duan Lun shook his head." I've already asked the eunuchs to hand it over to His Majesty in private. You've seen the situation in the morning court today. The Wang family is obviously not prepared to let it go!”
Du Ruhui said at this time," Your Majesty, you can actually see it too. However, this world is still my world. No matter how powerful the Wang Family is, can they cover the sky with one hand?"”
When the other three heard Du Ruhui's words, their spirits were shaken.
Everyone understood what he meant. Li Tang was created by His Majesty's knife and gun. Even if the Wang family really wanted to fight for something, they had to see if His Majesty was willing or not. Moreover, if His Majesty was really ruthless, no one would be able to do anything!
Duan Lun nodded and said to the other three,""I'll go to the Ministry of Works first. Liu Xuan's blueprints have been given to me. I have to quickly find a craftsman. It's best if I can make a replica tomorrow!”
"Good!"
Li Er said that he would go and take a look tomorrow. Duan Lun was anxious now, so they naturally understood.
On the other side.
After Li Er left Taiji Palace, he went to Dew Palace to rest. Empress Zhangsun had already prepared some food for him.
"Your Majesty, has the morning court session ended?"
"Yes."
"ChenQie has boiled a bowl of lotus seed soup for you.”
Li Er liked to eat sweet food, and Empress Zhangsun liked to make lotus seed soup.
One was willing to fight, while the other was willing to suffer. They had been eating for nearly ten years, and they were not sick of it. If Liu Xuan was here, he would definitely admire them.
Empress Zhangsun gently and considerately brought the lotus seed soup over. Li Er gulped down a bowl and then took out the memorial that the chamberlain had just given him.
On the cover of the memorial was written: Longmen County Order, Liu Xuan!
"Liu Xuan's memorial!"
Li Er raised his eyebrows and opened the memorial to read it. However, with just a glance, Li Er's pupils suddenly dilated.
It was because of Liu Xuan's calligraphy!
The majestic and well-structured Liu style instantly made Li Er forget the contents of the memorial. Instead, he was a little fascinated by the words.
"This stroke is a different path! This was the handwriting of a twenty-year-old kid?”Li Er said in disbelief.
Empress Zhangsun waved her hand and asked the palace maids to clean up the empty bowls.
Then, she asked curiously,"Your Majesty, what's wrong with the words? What twenty-year-old kid?”
When Li Er heard Empress Zhangsun's words, he came back to his senses slightly.
"Oh, Guanyin maid, look! Did this brush and ink look like it was written by a 20-year-old young man?”
Li Er spread out Liu Xuan's memorial for Empress Zhangsun to see.
Empress Zhangsun came up and took a look. She could tell at a glance that Liu Xuan's handwriting was the style of everyone.
"This... Your Majesty, was this really written by a twenty-year-old young man?”
Li Er nodded when he saw Empress Zhangsun exclaim. He even suspected that someone else had written the memorial for Liu Xuan.
However, according to the eunuch, Duan Lun said when he submitted the memorial," This is a memorial personally written by County Magistrate Liu Xuan of Longmen County.”
