Chapter 284: Three provinces, six ministries, nine temples and five prisons must not be moved

"Your Highness the Crown Prince, Dai Zhou, the Minister of Dali Temple, protects Fang Xuanling and Duan Zhixuan, are clearly the party of the King of Qin. The ministers suggest that Your Highness the Crown Prince immediately order his official position to be removed from his post and deprived him of his title, and he will not be hired!" Wei Ting returned to the East Palace angrily and sued Li Jiancheng indignantly.

Li Jiancheng did not listen to him in a biased manner, turned to look at Xu Shimo and said, "Shimo, you go to Dali Temple for trial today, what is the result?"

Xu Shimo was about to speak, and Wei Zheng, who was looking at the file on the table, raised his head and looked at Li Jiancheng and said, "I have reviewed the file that Dai Zhou interrogated in recent years and the last time Dai Zhou interrogated Zhang Liang. At that time, the King of Qi wanted to torture Zhang Liang. It was Dai Zhou who firmly opposed it and did not hesitate to offend the Eastern Palace and the King of Qi's Mansion. Dai Zhou was neither a fellow Eastern Palace nor a party to the Western Palace. Wei had worked with Dai Zhou for a while, and this person deserved two words - Pure Minister!"

Wei Ting was speechless.

Li Jiancheng waved his hand and said, "It's true or false. You don't have to worry about Yizhi Fang Xuanling's case. It's just that this pure minister can openly interrogate Fang Xuanling to show justice. Only by fairly and justly interrogating Fang Xuanling's case of rebellion can we block the long mouths of everyone in the world!"

Wei Ting looked at Li Jiancheng and retreated awkwardly.

Xu Shimo looked at Li Jiancheng and Wei Zheng and slowly retreated.

When only Wei Zheng and Li Jiancheng were left in the study of the East Palace, Li Jiancheng placed a candlestick on Wei Zheng's desk and sat down opposite Wei Zheng.

Li Jiancheng and Wei Zheng looked at each other, and then the two showed a knowing smile.

Li Jiancheng said: "If I hadn't been you, I wouldn't know which wasteland tomb I was lying in now.

Wei Zheng bowed and said, "Your Highness is the son of heaven. If you have great luck, it will naturally be auspicious person and heavenly appearance!"

Li Jiancheng pointed to the bloody bag that bulged on the back of Wei Zheng's head and said with guilt: "It's just that I have implicated you, Xuan Cheng has suffered!"

Wei Zheng waved his hand and said, "Your Highness can turn danger into safety this time, thanks to General Chen and Princess Pingyang, Wei Zheng's suffering is really not worth mentioning compared to Your Highness's achievements today."

Li Jiancheng shook his head and said, "I will issue the crown prince order in the past two days, and I will be appointed as the Minister of the Shang Dynasty and be above all officials."

Wei Zheng was immediately moved.

Li Jiancheng looked at Wei Zheng with a sense of accomplishment.

Wei Zheng pondered for a moment and said, "Does Your Highness want to - the three provinces?"

Li Jiancheng nodded and handed a silk book on the table to Wei Zheng.

Wei Zheng took it and saw that his face changed drastically.

Li Jiancheng said: "Three provinces and six ministries, nine temples and twelve guards have been sorted out these days."

Suddenly, Wei Zheng read the silk book in the candlelight. After reading it, he lit it directly on the candlelight.

Li Jiancheng looked at this scene and was shocked and reached out to take back the silk book.

Wei Zheng turned sideways to cover him.

When Li Jiancheng wanted to arrest him again, Wei Zheng quickly flashed over Li Jiancheng's.

While dodging, Wei Zheng explained: "Your Highness, listen to me."

Li Jiancheng looked helplessly as the silk book gradually became engulfed by the fire: "Xuancheng, what are you doing?"

Wei Zheng threw the silk book burned to ashes and said, "Your Highness is still the crown prince now and has not ascended the throne yet, let alone the throne. If your Highness does not want the Tang Dynasty to be divided into internal strife, and does not want to be worried on the imperial bed all day long, please ask your Highness to agree to Wei's three things."

Li Jiancheng looked at Du Yan, and the helpless expression on his face gradually disappeared, and he smiled bitterly: "Please give me advice."

Wei Zheng nodded and said, "First, Pei Ji cannot be dismissed, he can only be promoted; second, the civil servants of the Eastern Palace cannot enter the three provinces to serve as prime ministers before His Highness ascended the throne, and can only serve in the Eastern Palace; third, the military generals of the Eastern Palace must fully take over the military power led by the Twelve Guards and the Eastern Palace Guards."

Li Jiancheng pondered Wei Zheng's words and stood up and pondered.

After a long time, Li Jiancheng said: "Transfer Xue Wanche back to serve as the general of the left guard?"

Wei Zheng nodded and said, "Yes!"

Li Jiancheng pondered: "Wei Ting served as the General of the Right Guard?"

Wei Zheng shook his head and said, "No, Wei Yizhi is narrow-minded and not enough to serve as the General of the Right Guard. It is better to order Yuchi Gong to be the General of the Left Wuhou to replace General Chen, and to order General Chen to lead the General of the Left Guard to be responsible for the security of Tai Chi Palace. Xie Shufang, the Prince of Qi's Palace, served as the General of the Right Guard and became General Chen's deputy."

Li Jiancheng nodded and suddenly looked at Wei Zheng in surprise.

Wei Zheng was not embarrassed and said seriously: "Xie Shufang led the head of the Prince of Qi's Mansion, Lin's army, to attack the Prince of Qin's Mansion. His achievements were outstanding. Without reward, it would not be enough to convince the people of the world!"

...

Chen Ying had already taken out all the pepper seeds and sowed them after spring. The remaining pepper skin was filled with ten sacks. Even if Chen Ying ate them every day, he would not finish it.

To this end, Chen Ying grinds the chili squid into chili powder, let the hot butter be cooled to six minutes hot, then pour it into the chili powder, then add salt, crushed pepper, and various seasonings. After cooling, it forms the spicy hot pot base of later generations.

After the base of this spicy hot pot was ready, Chen Ying couldn't wait to ask the cook to take out part of the old soup in the mansion, then wait for the water to boil, put it into the copper hot pot, then add charcoal to the hot pot, and wait for the hot pot girls to come and eat hot pot together.

In fact, hot pot is not plagiarized by Chen Ying from later generations, because "花在" appeared in the Western Han Dynasty as early as the Western Han Dynasty. According to literature, this is a kind of pottery or copper cooking utensil with three feet at the bottom and a handle on the abdomen. It is used to place it in a brazier and eat it warmly with charcoal fire. This is exactly the same as eating hot pot today.

The copper hotpot used by Chen Ying is a copper-mandarin hotpot that was popular in Sichuan in later generations. However, the specifications of this copper hotpot are a bit large. After all, what is needed to eat hotpot is that there are many people. When Chen Ying made this copper hotpot alone, he considered big-bellied people such as Luo Shixin, Asanosmo and Shan Xiongxin.

So this copper hot pot is three feet in diameter and can be put into five kilograms of mutton at a time.

Looking at the hot pot in front of him, especially the spicy smell floating in the hot pot, Chen Ying looked intoxicated.

Li Xiuning actually didn't like hot pot very much. Looking at Chen Ying's intoxicated expression, she asked in confusion: "Is this hot pot so delicious?"

Chen Ying shook his head and said, "You don't understand this!"

"Aren't it all eaten?" Li Xiuning smiled disapprovingly: "I feel that Chen Lang, the crystal elbow you made is very delicious!"

Chen Ying pointed to the boiling water in the copper hot pot and explained: "The copper hot pot is like a holy and clear hermit, who has settled all the way, thinking all the way, and the demeanor remains."

Li Daozhen curled his lips and said, "If I don't accept others, I will obey Chen Lang. No matter what I do, I can tell a big truth!"

Chen Ying nodded and said, "Eating more hot pot is good for health. Copper is an indispensable micronutrient for human health. It has an important impact on the development and function of blood, central nervous system, hair, skin and bone tissue, as well as the brain, liver, heart and other internal organs. The custom of eating hot pot was formed as early as the Western Han Dynasty. Eating hot pot should maintain a simplicity and naturalness, and the whole body exudes the heavy weight of history and the vicissitudes of time. We are fortunate to sit around the pot, eat a kind of origin, cultivation, leisurely culture, and taste a sincere, passionate, and harmonious feeling."

Li Xiuning sat down slowly and said, "It's rare for Chen Lang to do something. I'm so tricky that Chen Lang has. I can't get used to ordinary dishes!"

Li Xiuning took the chopsticks and picked up a piece of lamb inner slices. He imitated Chen Ying's appearance and put the lamb slices into the boiling hot pot soup. Then, without a few breaths, he took them out, then dipped them in dipping sauce and stuffed them into his mouth.

While eating, Li Xiuning said, "This mutton is good, the meat is very tender and fat..."

Chen Ying smiled and said, "This is natural. This pot of old soup is the old soup that has been boiled in the mansion for two years, and the flavor is in the soup!"

Just then, Li Daozhen looked at Chen Ying eating so much that he felt very delicious. So he imitated Chen Ying and put a fish meatball into the fiery red soup!"

Chen Ying was also busy eating, but he didn't notice that Li Daozhen had actually put it in the soup with added ingredients.

It was too late to stop Li Daozhen when Chen Ying made another trip.

Although he only took a small bite, Li Daozhen still felt that his mouth was bitten by some poisonous insect. The hot and spicy feeling in his mouth was very uncomfortable. His originally white little face suddenly turned red. Li Daozhen hurriedly put down his chopsticks and said hurriedly: "Chen Lang, be careful, there is poison in the pot!"

When Li Xiuning heard this, she immediately remembered that Li Shimin had been poisoned in the East Palace and almost died. She did not dare to be careless and hurriedly stood up and said, "Yue'er, control the backyard, no one is allowed to enter!"

He Yue'er rushed to the front hall with a sound, and the entire Chen Mansion backyard was immediately facing a great enemy.

Chen Ying smiled bitterly and said, "This is not poison, but pepper!"

"Chi pepper?" Li Xiuning frowned. She had heard this term from Chen Ying more than once. Every time Chen Ying mentioned pepper, she would immediately show a greedy expression, which made her very curious about what peppers tasted.

Li Xiuning also put the mutton slices into the hot pot and tasted them seriously.

Unlike Li Daozhen, although Li Xiuning had never eaten chili peppers, maybe because of her different physique, she was just a little uncomfortable. She immediately took a sip of tea and then started eating it.

Chen Ying naturally woke up. Chili peppers evade food, relieve qi, increase appetite, ward off evil, and kill all poisons. During pregnancy, Li Xiuning's appetite was not very good, and with peppers, she opened up her appetite.

"It's too spicy, how can you eat Chen Lang?" Li Daozhen said with lingering fear after drinking a few bowls of tea. She probably won't dare to touch this chili again for a long time in the future.

"Princess, you vomited it out, but I swallowed it in a hurry. Now my stomach is still so hot and uncomfortable." He Yue'er covered her stomach with pain. For those who are eating chili peppers for the first time, it is indeed difficult to adapt to eating such spicy hot pot at once.

"It may be difficult to adapt at the beginning, but if you eat it a few more times, you will find the benefits of chili peppers. Why don't you try again?" Chen Ying said temptingly again. Hotpot should be eaten together and lively. If there is only one person, it would be boring.

Just as Chen Ying and his family were sitting around Chenjiabao and eating hot pot, in a secret valley located in Zhongnan Mountain in southwest of Chang'an, dozens of shattered armor and blood-filled remnants of the Qin Prince's Mansion were trembling in the cold wind.

At this time, Li Shimin's command was either killed in battle or captured. Only Cheng Zhijie, Hou Mo Chenxu, Du Ruhui and others were following Li Shimin.

In order to fear that the pursuers would find him, even if they were hiding in the cave, everyone still did not dare to raise the fire to keep warm. They could only hold back to back, gathering together to keep warm.

To make matters worse, since he escaped from Chang'an City, Li Shimin fell ill, his body was burnt and he was unconscious.

Cheng Zhijie looked at Li Shimin who was unconscious and said with a worried look: "Du Zhanjun, you are the smartest. What do you think we should do now?"

"Hedong will definitely not be able to go!" Du Ruhui smiled bitterly: "His Royal Highness Qin has tens of thousands of elite old troops in Hedong. This is a well-known secret. At present, the various levels heading to Hedong have probably been waiting for us to fall into it!"

Cheng Zhijie said angrily: "Hedong cannot go, where else can we go?"

Hou Mo Chenxu thought for a while and said, "Otherwise we will go to Guiyang. Our Hou Mo Chen family still has some prestige in Guiyang. We just need to raise our arms and shout, and we dare not say that there are many followers. At least we can pull up tens of thousands of soldiers in an instant!"

Du Ruhui shook his head and said, "How can we go to Guiyang for the body of His Highness King Qin? The most important thing now is to find a good doctor to cure His Highness King Qin. Otherwise, we will not be able to get through this level at all!"

Cheng Zhijie turned his eyes and pointed at the two Chinese miracle spies and said, "You two secretly return to Chang'an. Anyway, your target is small and will not be exposed!"

Du Ruhui shook his head and said, "Don't forget that Changsun Wuji is in their hands. I'm afraid that all the secrets of Baiqisi will be exposed..."

Cheng Zhijie said angrily: "This is not true, that is not true. What do you think you should do now?"

Hou Mo Chenxu thought for a while and said, "Why don't I go, I'm not famous in the Qin Prince's Mansion, I'm afraid the sea captain's documents will not be placed on my head!"

Du Ruhui nodded and said, "That's fine!"

Hou Mo Chenxu, with several guards, walked outside in the cold wind.

Looking at Hou Mo Chenxu's back, Du Ruhui suddenly turned his head and looked at Cheng Zhijie and said, "General Cheng!"

Cheng Zhijie said: "What's the matter!"

Du Ruhui lowered his voice and said, "At this time, we can't be careless. You bring ten people to follow Hou Mo Chenxu. If he really brings him back to the doctor, you don't show up. If he dares...betray His Highness the King of Qin, you will be defeated!"

Cheng Zhijie murmured, "Not it?"

"As soon as the situation of the Qin Palace is gone, a thorn from His Majesty and the Crown Prince of the Qin Palace can be sold at a good price if anyone with the Qin Palace is in hand!" Du Ruhui smiled bitterly and said, "We cannot afford to lose!"

Cheng Zhino nodded and said, "I, Cheng, will go now!"

...

In the Tai Chi Hall of Tai Chi Palace, Li Jiancheng was wearing the crown prince's crown and led his ministers from the Eastern Palace to attend the first court meeting of the Liangyi Hall of Tai Chi Palace. Wei Zheng, Wang Gui, Wei Ting, Xu Shimo, Xu Jingzong, Feng Li, Wei Wenzhong, and Yuchi Gong appeared in front of everyone.

Li Jiancheng looked at everyone and said, "Everyone, the deposed King of Qin was pacified to rebel, but the Tang Dynasty's ruling could not be chaotic. The Eastern Palace and the three provinces of the court were all rewarded and promoted to Jin..."

Everyone exchanged eyes with excitement.

The generals looked proud and satisfied.

Li Jiancheng picked up a silk book and handed it to the Zhongchang Shi Chen Qi.

Chen Qi unfolded the silk book and read it up and down: "Duke of Wei, the Left Pushe Pei Ji, was appointed as Sikong, and was in Jingrongyang; Duke of Song, the Right Pushe of Shangshe Xiao Yu, the Left Pushe of Jin, Duke of Zhao, and the Central Secretary Feng Deyi, appointed as the Right Pushe of Shangshe, and the Minister of the Menxia Provincial Minister Yu Wenshi and Duke of Liang, the General of the Army, and the Prince of the Prince of Consort Chen Ying was promoted to the General of the Left Guard. Xie Shufang, the former commander of the King of Qi's Palace, the General of the Right Guard of Jin, and the Prince Zhan Shi... Wei Ting was also the Left Guard of the Crown Prince of the East Palace!"

As Li Jiancheng pronounced his names one by one, everyone showed a shocked expression on their faces.

Chen Qi slowly put down the silk book and looked around everyone.

Everyone's expressions were immediately wonderful.

Pei Ji originally thought that after this, he would be dismissed by Li Jiancheng on the grounds of not supporting his post. After all, as the first official in all officials, Qin King Li Shimin led the attack on Ganlu Hall and captured Li Yuan alive, which almost caused Li Yuan to die. This matter was too big and someone had to come out to take the blame.

His head is not big or small, just right.

Although the nominal promotion was much better than he thought.

With a series of appointments, the court meeting finally ended. The officials retreated and came out of the hall in groups of three or three.

Wei Ting followed Xu Shimo with an unhappy look on his face and said with annoyance: "Is this different from what I said before?"

Xu Shimo didn't answer, just walked down.

Wei Ting turned away angrily and turned to chase Li Jiancheng.

Chen Shuda followed two steps to catch up with Feng Deyi and bowed: "Congratulations to Feng Prime Minister, and promoted to Shangshu Youpushe."

Feng Deyi nodded with a relaxed expression and thanked: "I was originally worried that the Crown Prince would make a big fight against the court. Now, only the six prime ministers, Pei Xiangguo was promoted to Sikong. Those ministers in the court who were worried that the Crown Prince would take a large-scale liquidation of the old people of the Qin Palace can now feel at ease."

Uncle Chen nodded, paused for a moment, looked back at the hall and said, "There are masters around the prince!"

Li Yuanji looked at Xie Shufang in a frustration, looking unkind.

Uncle Xie hurriedly explained: "Your Highness, I really don't know!"

Li Yuanji said with a slight smile: "Xie Shufang, you are so capable. When did you get on the prince's line?"
