Chapter 3187 worthless becomes valuable

Wei Zhi and Yin Li: ... This jump is too high, directly from the sixth rank to the second rank?

To say that the position of the prince's young master is held by many people in the court. It is an empty title. From the second rank, it is to teach the prince to read. It has the same function as Zhuang Xun as a servant, but the title is a bit different.

Many people in the court have this false title, such as Wei Zhi and Yin Li, besides them, there are Li Shangshu and others.

In the early years, this false title was still very valuable. After all, it was from the second rank. Even if there was no real power, there was no material reward that was too high, but it was also very nice and noble.

But then the prince was absurd, and the emperor was keen to invite various teachers for the prince.

In the court, all the ministers he thought were good were invited to teach the prince, the famous Confucian scholars, and the virtuous talents in the aristocratic family.

Since he was a teacher, he naturally had to be given a position, because later the prince became more and more absurd, and the conflicts with the courtiers and the emperor became more and more serious, and many people looked down on the prince.

In order to invite these people, as long as the emperor can invite one, he will give the false title of the prince's young master, so that the crown prince and young master are flooded in the court, and then become very worthless.

In fact, it's not worth much in the future. Like Wei Zhi, he still occasionally goes to Chongwen Hall to teach the prince a lesson on being a king, but he doesn't have a salary, let alone those who have not been teachers to the prince for a long time. people.

Fake titles are completely fake titles.

But no matter how false it is, it is also a status, which is different from Shijiao.

Especially now that the crown prince has changed his ways, and the position of the prince has been firmly established. As long as there is no accident in the middle, he must be the next emperor.

The Prince's Young Master was the next generation's teacher, second only to the Prince's Grand Master.

So now the Crown Prince Shaofu is a little more valuable, and it is from the second rank.

After thinking about it, Wei Zhilue reminded: "Your Majesty, Zhuang Xun only has a sixth rank. If you add a false title, his real position..."

"That's why I decided to promote him to Chongwenguan Bachelor."

Very good, the real job has also grown, but there are a few, from the fourth grade, the dance is not very outrageous.

Wei Zhi put his hands together and no longer objected.

He didn't object, but the emperor became worried again, "But now I have sealed everything that should be sealed. When the prince ascends the throne, how can he seal it?"

Wei Zhi: "Then you keep it for the crown prince?"

The emperor shook his head, "No, what if the prince dislikes his preaching and is unwilling to seal it? And I will seal it and instruct him to teach the prince, and he will change his name justifiably."

Seeing that he was so entangled, Wei Zhi asked, "How does Your Majesty plan to reward Zhou Man and the Zhou family this time?"

He said: "A rice seed, and a wheat seed, both seeds are of great significance. The reward cannot be low, especially Zhou Man, she is now compiled from the fourth grade, the title of county master, and onwards... Your Majesty also Do you want to leave this merit to the prince to reward him in the future?"

The emperor snorted unceremoniously: "New wheat seeds and new rice seeds are things that came out during my tenure, why should they be left to the prince to reward them?"

He felt that he was in good health and could live for many more years. How could he make the hero wait so long?

And the emperor was not willing to give this great achievement to the prince, so the emperor said: "I know what I have in mind, let Zhou Man and Zhou Li be called back to the capital."

Wei Zhi responded and said that he would draft the will when he went back.

Zhou Dalang invited people from the village to help cook a meal together, and rushed to the field to greet the emperor to go back to dinner. It was getting dark at this time, and he was very embarrassed, "Our brothers rarely cook, but my sixth brother is not here. , otherwise, you will definitely be able to let His Majesty eat earlier."

The emperor smiled and sat down at the table, let Zhou Dalang and Wuwu Lang also sit down, and said, "It's okay, it's too late for me to eat in the palace."

He glanced at the dishes on the table and smiled: "It's quite rich."

Zhou Dalang smiled and said: "The life is better now, and there are many livestock in the village, so even if you don't go to the market, it is not difficult to eat meat."

Emperor: "Oh, what livestock do you all keep here?"

"Let's not talk about cows, they can't be eaten. In the village, chickens and ducks are raised, and there are sheep, but not many, just a few. This year, several new houses have added pigs, but unfortunately my family has different It’s not good to raise pigs, otherwise I’d like to raise some.”

The emperor ate a chopstick of chicken and nodded with satisfaction, "The people live and work in peace and contentment, and I am happy. Come, come, today is a good day, even if it's just for the new rice seeds, it's worth a drink together."

A cup is impossible. Zhou Man and the others don't like to drink, so there is no wine hidden in the other courtyard. Zhou Dalang finally came back to Lizheng's house with a jar of rice wine, which was used by his family to get married after the autumn harvest.

As for rice wine, it's natural to drink it from a bowl, so all the bowls were served in front of them. When the emperor raised the bowl, everyone also raised the bowl and drank it happily.

Seeing that the emperor's wine bowl was empty, Friday Lang immediately refilled it...

In the end, Zhou Dalang and Wuwu Lang were helped back to the room by the guards. Although the emperor's face was a little red, he was in good spirits, and he didn't look drunk at all. Talk, how about drinking together by the way?"

Wei Zhi also drank a lot, mainly because he was really happy, but he still knew what to do, so he shook his head, "Your Majesty, it's not good to be drunk, we have to rush back to the capital tomorrow morning, let's rest early tonight."

After saying that, he grabbed his sleeves, turned around and walked away.

The emperor looked at Yin Li.

Yin Li got up and said, "Your Majesty, please send Your Majesty back to your room."

The emperor nodded, "Alright, it just so happens that our monarchs and ministers also have a talk."

So the emperor dragged Yin Li away, went back to the house, drank two more bowls of wine, and let Yin Li leave after speaking for nearly an hour.

Mr. Zhuang, who has been lowering his sense of existence, took a deep breath and went back to his house holding on to the door frame. Tomorrow, he has to go back to the capital as soon as possible. The carriage can be bumpy when it gets up quickly. Alas, I knew that three years ago. When a kid learns to ride, he should pick up riding again, and now he won't have to ride in a carriage.

Mr. Zhuang regretted it in his heart and decided to go back and practice riding.

After a good night's sleep, Mr. Zhuang was woken up before dawn the next day. Wu Wulang said anxiously, "Sir, the guard asked me for a doctor just now. It seems that the emperor is ill."

Mr. Zhuang, who was still confused, suddenly woke up, immediately lifted the quilt, got up, and hurried to the yard where the emperor lived.

Yin Li had already stood up and was sitting in the yard, and when he saw Mr. Zhuang approaching anxiously, he smiled slightly and said, "Zhuang Shi said don't worry, Master Wei is just a relapse of an old disease, he has already taken the medicine, and he just fell asleep at this time. , just wait until the doctor arrives to have a look."

Mr. Zhuang: "Is Mr. Wei sick?"

Yin Li nodded slightly
