In the Hall of Dew.
All the ministers were petrified!
Li Er's reward for Li Hao had completely exceeded their imagination by ten times, a hundred times!
The title of Marquis of Ten Thousand Households was posted on the Imperial Roll, so it was natural.
but...
The key would depend on where it was!
They wouldn't have been so surprised if they had sealed Lantian County, Changle County, Qinghe County, and other capital red counties.
However, His Majesty the Emperor had actually conferred the title of County Marquis for ten thousand years!
What kind of place was Wannian County?
That was half of Chang 'an Fortress!
As the most prosperous capital of the Great Tang, its status was self-evident.
There were twenty-five crisscrossing streets in Chang 'an City, which divided the city into 108 grain workshops. The Vermilion Bird Avenue was the central axis, which divided Chang' an City into the east and west.
The east belonged to Wannian County, while the west belonged to Chang 'an County.
Chang 'an County was the location of the imperial city and the royal family. This territory naturally symbolized that the royal family could not be divided.
Other than Chang 'an County, Wannian County was the most prestigious place!
None of the officials in the court had a fief or food city here.
That was because…
They were not qualified enough!
And Li Hao, a commoner, was definitely the first in the world to be able to own a county in the Imperial City!
That was why the ministers in the court were so shocked!
At this moment.
Only Zhangsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling, and Du Ruhui, who already knew Li Hao's identity, could remain calm in the Dew Palace.
As the Dragon Son, Li Hao naturally had the right to own the imperial city's Wannian County.
"Your Majesty, I feel that this matter is inappropriate.”
"Wannian County belongs to Chang 'an, the capital, and is a place where dragons prosper. How can it be rewarded to a rank 1 commoner!？”
A white-haired old man who was over sixty years old stepped forward and reported to Li Er.
He glanced at Li Hao with disdain.
This person was one of the current prime ministers, Pei Ji!
He was born in Pei Shi of the east of the river and was a subordinate of Retired Emperor Li Yuan. He once had power in the court.
However, as Li Er ascended the throne, the power of the royal court was slowly divided among Zhangsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, and the other officials under Li Er.
However, because Li Er obtained the throne by launching the Xuanmen Rebellion, he did not get the throne properly.
In order to protect his reputation and stabilize the court, Li Er did not attack Ping, Pei Ji, and the other old officials under Li Yuan.
Pei Ji was born in a century-old aristocratic family and claimed to be superior to others.
He even looked down on Zhangsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling, and the other rising nobles of Guanlong, let alone Li Hao, who was born from a grassroots background!
Pei Ji believed that he, who was highly respected and respected, had not been granted the title of food city in a noble place like Wannian County even when he had followed Emperor Wu De to establish the Great Tang.
Li Hao, who was born as a rank 1 commoner, was not worthy of the fief of Wannian County just by saving Empress Zhangsun!
Wannian County's fief and food fief were not just dry fiefs and food fiefs.
It represented supreme status and glory!
Pei Ji felt that he should be the one to receive such an honor, not a commoner like Li Hao!
"Your Majesty, Lord Pei is right.”
"Chang 'an is the imperial city. Since ancient times, there has been no precedent of enfeoffment to others, let alone a mere first-class commoner!”
"That's right! That's right!"
"Your Majesty, please retract your order!"
Many of the old officials and aristocrats who had followed Pei Ji's lead during Li Yuan's time echoed Li Er's words, asking him to retract his orders.
Originally, Li Er was happily preparing a reward for his son, preparing to make up for the debt he owed Li Hao for the past 18 years.
He was suddenly interrupted by Pei Ji, who even called him a commoner, his tone and expression filled with disdain.
Li Er's expression immediately turned gloomy!
A cold light flashed in his eyes as he looked at Pei Ji!
Originally, when Li Er ascended the throne, he was worried that Pei Ji was his father's old minister. For the sake of his reputation and the court, he tolerated Pei Ji's arrogance and rudeness!
But today!
Pei Ji's actions had already crossed Li Er's bottom line without him realizing it.
Li Hao was the eldest son of him and Empress Zhangsun. His status was noble and his bloodline was extraordinary!
Now, Pei Ji and these ministers were calling him a commoner, mocking and despising him.
In addition to Pei Ji's previous arrogance and rudeness, Li Yuan did not put him in his eyes as a minister of the Dragon and contradicted him in everything.
Li Er's patience towards Pei Ji was about to reach its limit!
However, Pei Ji had no idea about this.
After being echoed by the ministers, he felt smug.
"Oh?"
"Are you teaching me how to do things?"
"Could it be that Chang 'an City belongs to you, Pei Ji?”
These few words came out of Li Er's mouth lightly, but it made all the officials of the Dew Palace tremble.
He looked at Li Er in disbelief.
All along, Li Er had treated Prime Minister Pei Ji with respect and respect.
He never expected that he would say such words for a commoner!？
It was simply a heart-wrenching remark!
Chang 'an City belonged to Pei Ji?
Didn't he want to rebel?
It was a great crime to be beheaded!
When Pei Ji heard that, he was completely stunned!
What was going on?
I'm a servant of Emperor Wude, born in a century-old aristocratic family. I have the backing of an aristocratic family. Even if His Majesty is dissatisfied with me, he won't do this!？
This was his strongest trump card.
If Li Er wanted to touch him, it would definitely affect the whole body!
That was because…
He represented the interests of the great clans in the imperial court!
"Lord Pei!"
"Zhen! I'm asking you again!"
"Is Chang 'an your Chang' an or mine?!!？”
Li Er stood up from his dragon throne and pointed at Pei Ji as he asked loudly. His gaze was sharp and soul-stirring!
A thick Emperor Pressure rushed towards Pei Ji!
In addition, Li Er had been on the battlefield for more than ten years and had killed countless people. His murderous aura was shocking!
Pei Ji was so frightened that he knelt on the ground with a thud!
Killing intent!
Pei Ji could feel the dense killing intent that Li Er was emitting!
This was…He had the intention to kill him!
Why?
Why?
How could he?
For a mere commoner, a lowly doctor, you actually treat me, a person who has made great contributions to the Great Tang, like this!？
