What???

Li Er said he wanted to be the king of the Feng family. This news shocked everyone. It was a rule that the other surname did not be the king. Is the Tang Dynasty going to break this rule?

"Your Majesty cannot. Since ancient times, no one has been granted a king. This is a rule passed down for the stability of the dynasty. How could the Tang Dynasty set a precedent?" An old minister stepped forward and advised.

Many ministers came up to persuade him, but Li Er was not dissatisfied at all. After all, the fact that the title of a king in another surname is of great importance, and no one objected to it means that there was a problem.

"Why is it a wise monarch who does not reward merits?

The Feng family did not avoid life and death and retrieved immortal grains and benefited the people of the world. How great is this merit? I think it is greater than the founding of the Tang Dynasty and quelling turbulent times. I think it is lighter than the title of a single word. It is just that Feng Gong is righteous, only for the welfare of the people, not for personal honor and disgrace.

When the shipbuilding began, the Supreme Emperor had already promised Duke Feng that this matter was successful. The Feng family was named Yi Yi and the king was respected by all the people.

Of course, this is one of the most important things. The Feng family’s great contributions are the sign of the imperial court.”

"However, once this example of a king of a different surname is opened, it may cause harm to descendants!" Fang Xuanling said worriedly.

Li Er laughed: "You all see the standard of Feng's title of king. It is a great merit that benefited the people and the generations, and its merits are immeasurable.

I promise here that if anyone has such immeasurable merits in the future, the Tang Dynasty would not mind adding another title of kingship with a different surname, and the visitor would not refuse more. Only by clear rewards and punishments, the Tang Dynasty would be far beyond its predecessors.

You must take King Feng Ang of Yue as an example and sacrifice your life and be willing to benefit the people.

If I can have such a brother of a different surname, I will not be able to ask for it, but the Tang Dynasty will not be able to ask for it!"

"Your Majesty's wise!"

All the officials bowed together to salute.

After all this, who can still refute it? If we calculate based on the size of the credit, the matter of immortal grain did exceed the contribution of the founding of the Tang Dynasty and the safeguarding country, but we can't give up the throne to the Feng family, so it's not an exaggeration to the title of royal title.

In fact, all officials also have their own little ones in their hearts, especially those with high positions. Many of them are already powerful ministers in the court and the opposition. The rules of not being a king of different surnames have bound many people's ambitions. Once this was first opened, many people's hearts became alive. With this standard of being a king, it is extremely difficult, but it is also an opportunity.

The most important thing is that this throne can be hereditary, which can be said to have surpassed the title of the royal family of the Tang Dynasty. After all, the royal title is not hereditary, and every emperor will grant his own brother the title of Yizi, which means that the King of Jin, like Li Jiancheng, cannot be passed on to his son in the future.

At this time, Old Li Yuan stood up and said, "This successful return of immortal grains is not just the Feng family's great achievements. The first contribution should be Bai Fan, the Marquis of Lantian. After all, he proposed the immortal grains overseas, he commanded the shipbuilding, and provided the charts. Feng Angfeng King, so I think Bai Fan's first contribution should also be awarded the title of honor."

hiss……

All civil and military officials took a breath and looked up at the Supreme Emperor Li Yuan, but Old Li Yuan was really as deep as a sea. No matter how you think in your heart, you can't be seen through it casually, so many people quickly lowered their heads and dared not say much.

Li Er did not expect that his father suddenly played this trick, which was a bit inexplicable, but he felt relieved after thinking about it. What his father said was reasonable on one hand, and on the other hand, Bai Fan made great contributions repeatedly, and a marquis was no longer suitable. He had long wanted to add him to Duke, but he was just thinking about his young age.

Later, Bai Fan became famous and became the uncrowned king. It doesn't matter if he had a name. At this time, his father Li Yuan took this opportunity to propose it. It can be said that he was a scheming person. On the one hand, he was honored and praised Bai Fan, and on the other hand, he also wanted to win over. After all, Bai Fan alone was related to the rise and fall of the Tang Dynasty. The current situation is that the royal Li family could not offend him, so he had to try his best to win over him.

Back then, she married a girl, but now Bai Fan has four children. The Bai family is a family member. Giving a title can be passed on to descendants, which is also a benefit to win over.

So after thinking it through, Li Er agreed and thought about the title of King Bai Fan in his heart.

No one spoke at this time, nor did he express his consent or objection, because Bai Fan.

There are those who support Bai Fan in his heart to be the king. For example, Old Li Jing, his nephew is a glorious family. He can be inherited by the king in one word and can be inherited from generation to generation. This life is the ultimate of a minister. His brother Bai Da can also smile in the sky. The Bai family will be rich and worry-free from now on!

There are those who do not support it in their hearts, but no one dares to stand up because Bai Fan is the uncrowned king. Whoever dares to stand up for this matter is openly accusing the other person of wealth. Even Wei Zheng dares not. After all, being a king is a matter of being a descendant of his descendants for thousands of years, which is different from the etiquette of cloaking and hats.

"Your Majesty, the Supreme Emperor, I think it's inappropriate!"

This voice broke the brief calm in the hall. When everyone looked back, it turned out that it was Lan Tianhou himself wearing pajamas, wearing a pajamas, which puzzled everyone. It was a good thing for the king. Who is not looking forward to? Are you stupid or what? Don't you?

"Jianzhi, why are you? I have a clear distinction between rewards and punishments. What's wrong with it? You have been through life and death for the Tang Dynasty, built academies to educate the people, and cultivated countless talents for the country. A marquis of this kind has long been worthy of you.

I know that you are indifferent to fame and fortune and don’t even want official positions. However, if you don’t reward the merits of immortal food and education, how can you convince the public?” Li Er advised.

Bai Fan waved his hand and said, "Anyone who is dedicated to the country is not a person who is greedy for fame and fortune. As long as the Tang Dynasty is prosperous and the people are not short of food and clothing."

Although a king's title is nothing, you all know that you are not used to being arrogant and being praised by others. Marquis of Lantian is very good. Every day when walking on the street, the neighbors and villagers will call me warmly and say hello to me. Brother, boy, if Your Majesty gives me a king's title, I guess the people will stay away from me, so this is inappropriate.

I hope Your Majesty will give up his mercy and let go of his ministers. A Lantian Marquis is enough. If I didn’t use the title of a nobleman to scare foreigners and foreigners, I would even think this Lantian Marquis would be unnecessary."

...

"Boy, I'll add a king number to you. Wouldn't it be more intimidating to go out?" Li Jiancheng said in confusion.

"My father-in-law is just talking nonsense. There are still a group of foreign envoys in the Tianzhuo. If you don't believe me, please ask me. They are afraid that you will have more King Jin, or are they afraid that I, the Marquis of Lantian, will have more."

you……

Li Jiancheng was flirting with by his son-in-law, and he was helpless and laughed and ignored him.

"Boy, do you really want it? You must know that this throne can be inherited and cannot be missed!" Li Er asked.

"Take it seriously, the Bai family is a small family, a marquis is enough to support the family, what is the inheritance of a prince? First, I have four sons, and one is not enough to divide the title. Second, if anyone inherits the title and becomes a playboy in the future, wouldn't it be a disaster?

So Your Majesty should not stick to it anymore. It’s just a name. Even without this title, I believe that no one will look down on it when traveling all over the world.” Bai Fan explained sincerely.

Hearing his explanation, everyone nodded secretly, Li Er also praised it in his heart. He had a higher evaluation of Bai Fan. There were really not many people who could keep their hearts clear in front of huge temptations.

"That's fine, let's discuss this matter later."

"Your Majesty, if you have something to do at home, can you take your leave first?" Bai Fan asked.

This sudden sentence made Li Er puzzled. Could it be that the title of king made you scare? It’s not that, this dynasty meeting has just begun, and there is something to be assigned, how can you leave? Just as I was about to ask why, Fang Xuanling laughed and said, “Jane Zhi, you don’t want to escape and bet, you have to pay us your previous bet, how can you leave?”
