Chapter 1723
Fengtian Temple.
Mu Bai defied all opinions and conferred a title on the head of the Li family, showing the determination that a great merchant prince should have.
Li Ziye stood quietly in the hall, and did not say anything from the beginning to the end.
In the hall, after the officials knew that the method of finding the coal mine came from the Li family, the last excuse for opposition was gone.
In recent years, the cold winter has been getting longer and longer, and the price of charcoal has increased. The situation of not being able to burn charcoal has become more and more serious.
Therefore, if the method of finding coal mines really came from the Li family, there is no doubt that the Li family has done a major event that has truly contributed to the present and will benefit the future.
Thinking about it now, two years ago, the fourth prince suddenly wanted to set up a mining department, and they still found it strange, but now, everything can be explained.
His Royal Highness established the Mining Department, and the Li family was in charge of coal desulfurization. The cooperation between the two parties has brought both fame and fortune.
"It's amazing."
In the court, many courtiers were filled with emotion after trying to understand the key point.
The Li family has a way to find coal mines, but they have never exploited coal mines by themselves to make huge profits. Instead, they gave this benefit to the royal family, to be precise, to the fourth prince. It seems to be losing money, but in fact, it is extremely smart.
The laws of the Great Merchants clearly stipulate that private individuals are not allowed to mine minerals. Although no one knew about the coal mines before, it was not clearly written into the law. This method can punish the Li family.
On the contrary, the Li family gave this benefit to the fourth prince, and the Li family naturally got the desulfurization business. Although they made a little less money, they avoided a lot of trouble, and effectively pushed the fourth prince one step closer to the crown prince.
Now, the four princes overseeing the country have become the de facto princes of the great merchants, and the Li family has undoubtedly become the biggest winner, winning multiple things in one fell swoop.
In their thoughts, all the officials looked at each other, and the last thought of objection in their hearts was completely wiped out.
His Majesty probably already knew about this, so he ignored everyone's objections and gave the Li family the hereditary title of Marquis of Ten Thousand Households.
In the middle of the hall, Li Ziye smiled when he saw the expressions of the ministers, but said nothing.
That old fox of Emperor Shang must not have known about it. That old fellow wanted to push the Li family to the opposite side of the court officials with the help of the feudal lord, but unfortunately, things couldn't go as he wished.
"My lord, your robe seems familiar."
Inside the hall, Lu Siqing noticed the robe on the young man in front of him, and asked curiously, "Did you wear this robe when you answered the three questions from the envoys of the Heavenly Mandate Hall in front of the Fengtian Hall?"
At the beginning, he had a few words with this little guy, and he had some impression of this robe.
"Master Lu has a good memory."
Li Ziye smiled and said, "It is indeed this robe. Today's occasion is more formal, so I chose this robe."
"It's so fast, in the blink of an eye, four years have passed."
Lu Siqing expressed emotion, and said, "I vaguely remember how impressive the prince was when he faced the envoys of the Heavenly Mandate Hall. A great talent like the prince really shouldn't be buried in the marketplace."
"Master Lu has a great reputation." Li Ziye bowed his hands and said politely.
Beside Lu Siqing, Zhang Qizheng heard the conversation between the two, and glanced at the young man in front of him again, with a flash of appreciation in his eyes.
It is rare for a young hero to be arrogant without relying on his talents.
In this way, it is not unacceptable for the Li family to be qualified as a hereditary successor.
At least, when the title of the Li family is passed on to this Li Jiaoxi, there will be no situation where the other hereditary nobles are inferior to each other.
Just when the final conclusion on the matter of the Li family's canonization in the court was finalized.
In front of the Shou'an Hall, a shadow guard walked quickly, entered the Tianyu Hall, and saluted respectfully, "Your Majesty, Professor Li started a class in the Taixue Palace yesterday, and publicly passed on Tai Chi Jin to all the Taixue Palace students."
On the dragon couch, Emperor Shang half leaned on the head of the bed, closed his eyes, and said calmly, "It's just a martial art, if you pass it on, you can pass it on, no problem."
Although most of the martial arts of the aristocratic families are in the great religion of the sect, some of them are popular among the people. It's just that martial arts skills are not so easy to learn.
Without the precepts and deeds of the elders, without the help of natural talents and treasures, it is almost impossible for ordinary people to embark on the road of martial arts.
If you can't learn it, the skills are just waste paper.
"Your Majesty, this exercise is different."
Shadow Guard said solemnly, "The students of Taixue Palace have learned all the moves of Taijijin in one day."
"one day?"
Upon hearing the words, Emperor Shang suddenly opened his eyes and asked, "Is this true?"
"It's true."
The shadow guard said in a deep voice, "Many students from the Taixue Palace immediately passed on Taijijin to their family members after returning home. The slaves have also seen the moves and mental methods of Taijijin, and it is indeed easy to learn."
While speaking, the Shadow Guard presented the copied Tai Chi Strength Technique to the past.
Emperor Shang took the exercise and took a quick look, his expression getting darker and darker.
Oops!
Such an easy-to-learn martial art is still spread in this way, it is conceivable that in a short time, there will be no one in the world who does not know Tai Chi Jin.
The people hold heavy weapons, which is undoubtedly a huge threat to the imperial court.
Moreover, the Li family will also win the hearts of the people in the world because of this matter.
It is enough troublesome for the master of the world to have a Confucian leader. Now, if there is another third son of the Li family, the prestige of the royal family will be wiped out.
"His Majesty."
At this moment, outside the main hall, No. 2 Shadow Guard quickly walked into the hall, and saluted respectfully, "The court meeting has just ended, and His Royal Highness resisted all opinions to confer the title of Marquis of the Li family to the head of the Li family, and granted the Li family hereditary succession. privilege."
"How did the officials react?" Emperor Shang suppressed the waves in his heart and asked.
"The opposition was fierce at first, though."
The Shadow Guard responded, paused, and replied truthfully, "Later, the Fourth Highness said that the idea of establishing the Mining Department and the method of finding coal were taught by Professor Li, and the officials did not continue to object."
"What did you say?"
When Emperor Shang heard the answer from the Shadow Guard in front of him, his heart sank and his face sank completely.
wild ambition!
Are the Li family trying to push the royal family into a corner?
The heart of the world is definitely not something that a merchant's family should have!
At the same time, in front of Fengtian Hall, Li Ziye walked out, looked back in the direction of Shou'an Hall in the distance, and smiled coldly.
The enemy retreats and we advance, this is the rule.
Since he entered the game with his own body, he even gave up his previous idea of never becoming an official, so he didn't plan to take another half step.
Previously, it was the royal family who took advantage of the power of the dynasty to suppress the Li family. Now, it is time for the Li family to counterattack the royal family with the help of millions of people.
Old Fox, it's time to change offense and defense. Are you ready?
