Chapter 756

Promoted

When Liu Yi arrived at home, the lights were brightly lit up and down the Liu Mansion, and the yard in the mansion was even more decorated. Every servant bent over to greet their eldest son with joy and congratulated him constantly, which made Liu Yi very surprised. Why did the family feel so happy at this time?

If this incident was known to Li Shimin, Empress Changsun, or Li Chengqian, who was still in a coma, what would it be? The prince was stabbed and seriously injured, and your Liu Mansion was here to celebrate with lights and lights, what would you do? Do you want to rebel or treason? With a big hat, how could he bear the small Liu Mansion?

"Young Master, you are back, the villain is here to congratulate you!" Hearing that their young master was back, Chen Ming came to greet him with his right leg. Like other servants, he bowed his hand to congratulate Liu Yiu happily as soon as he met. Then he took the umbrella from his servant and personally kept the wind and snow for their young master.

"Tell me, what's going on?" Knowing that Chen Mingze is not the kind of person who is not aware of the situation and has a reason for what he does, Liu Yiu did not rush to scold him, but still walked slowly towards the living room, and asked Chen Mingze softly.

"The boss, the second young master and the second young grandmother are back." After carefully following Liu Yi, Chen Mingze replied in a low voice: "In addition, the young master Chu Wen, who has been in Qi County, Chengdong, has also come here together."

"Oh? Brother Chu Wen is back too? When did he arrive?" Liu You asked lightly in surprise. That boy Erjo was already working in Chang'an City, so it was not uncommon to be able to come at this time, but his elder brother-in-law came a little strange. He didn't hear any outstanding political achievements in Qixian County. Why was he suddenly recalled to the city by Li Shimin?

"Go back to the young master, Mr. Chu Wen is probably Chang'an that was at the end of the afternoon. As soon as he came back, he came to the mansion with the second master. Now he is chatting with the master's wife and the young grandmother in the back hall." Chen Mingze explained softly and conscientiously.

"What's going on?" When Liu Yi felt relieved when he heard that Chu Chu had indeed returned to the mansion, he nodded slightly, then pointed to the big red lantern hanging on the door, and some festive red paper-cuts, and said, "Brother Chu Wen is back, it's indeed a happy event. It's just like this, just put a table of banquets in the mansion. There is no need to celebrate like this, right?"

"Do you know what happened in the Eastern Palace today?" Liu Yi said: "The Empress was stabbed, and His Highness the Crown Prince was seriously injured. He is still unconscious until now. At this time, you are fiddling with this arrangement in the mansion. If some people are interested, do you know what the consequences will be?"

"Return to the young master, the villain said about the matter in the East Palace after hearing the young grandmother, and he didn't think of being so arrogant and unrestrained, but these," pointed to the arrangements inside and outside the courtyard, Chen Ming said with a bitter face: "These things were arranged by the emperor and the old man, and the banquet in the back hall was also the imperial meal delivered directly from the palace. Even if the villain had ten courage, he would not dare to resist the order."

"What does the emperor mean?" Liu Yiwei was stunned for a moment. He didn't know which wise king Li Shimin, who was singing, was singing, so he asked Chen Mingze: "What reason did you look for? The emperor wouldn't give this table of happy meals for no reason, right?"

The emperor gave food directly to him. However, all those who received the banquet were officials in the court or famous generals and marshals who had made many military achievements. What kind of virtue can he enjoy such an honor?

"The second young master entered the Ministry of Personnel, and the official was appointed as the chief ward. The young master Chu Wen entered the Ministry of Justice, and the official was appointed as the official ward." Speaking of this, Chen Mingze couldn't help but be excited again, and replied to Liu Yixin: "One is a fourth-rank official, the other is a fourth-rank official, and they are all Jingguan'er, the young master. This is indeed a great joy for our Liu Mansion."

"Are you promoted?" There are five or six levels of spans in the middle. Li Shimin really put in a lot of money this time. In just over a year, he promoted two poor juren who had just been in the imperial examination and his younger brother to the fourth rank in the court. To count the many officials in previous dynasties, there are probably not many who have the upgrade speed of the two of them?

"Yes, young master, you have been promoted. Now, the two young masters are probably the youngest fourth-rank officials in the entire Tang Dynasty." Chen Mingze echoed, his smile on his face remained unabashed. There was a high-ranking official in the mansion. In any aspect, it was not a bad thing, and there was no reason to be displeased.

"It's a good thing to be promoted. But these are just not enough to get the emperor to give him imperial meals, right?" Before entering the living room, Liu Yiu walked directly to the back house, and then asked Chen Mingze for a sound.

"Young Master," Xiao patted the young master's flattery, and Chen Ming replied: "It's also for the trouble in the East Palace today. The young master made contributions to the rescue of the prince. In addition, the last time he was in Sanyuan, and the treatment of the empress, the emperor has always kept it in mind. Therefore, the emperor specially gave this banquet today, one for celebration and the other for thanks."

This is reasonable.

Liu Yi nodded gently. Although it was too sudden and the timing was not right, since the emperor's order had been given, and the meal had been delivered to the mansion and placed on the table, he said to Chen Mingze just now, could they still resist the order and not obey the order and send the things back to the wise king Li Shimin?

Liu Yiu believes that he does not have the courage to look down on death and cannot enjoy the inhuman stimulation, so let’s forget it. The emperor personally gave a banquet to show his goodwill. If he doesn’t accept it, he means he doesn’t know the practice or the praise.

"Brother, are you back?"

"A good brother, I'm polite here for you!"

When he heard that Liu Yi had returned to the mansion, Liu Eryou and Zhang Chuwen were busy coming out of the inner hall and went up to greet Liu Yi.

"Haha, there is no need to be so polite at home. The outside is cold, so let's talk in the room." Liu Yi smiled and took the hands of the two and entered the room together.

"Dad, mom, the child is back." Knowing that for the sake of the East Palace, the two elders in the family were always worried about themselves, so as soon as they entered the house, Liu Yiu took the lead in greeting Lao Liu and his wife, and then sat down next to the two elders.

"Yeah, it's good to come back, it's good to come back," Lao Liu nodded with a chuckling and without saying anything. Liu He took his son's hand excitedly and said, "I've been waiting for you for a long time, and finally I'm back safely. Look, the table of delicious dishes are all given by the emperor and the old man. I'll wait for my son to come back to enjoy them together."

"Also, Ertou and Chu Wen were promoted to high-ranking officials, saying that they were much bigger than the county magistrate of our Sanyuan. It was really a blessing from our ancestors. In the end, a high-ranking official was born in my family." With the emperor's banquet and his son Gaosheng, Liu He had never been so happy in his life. Two years ago, she didn't even dare to think about these things in her dreams.

"Mom, just be happy," Liu Yiong couldn't help but smile on his face when he saw that he was so happy. Seeing that the food on the table was still covered with special porcelain, he spoke to the servants to take the porcelain cover and remove it. Then he picked up the chopsticks and said to everyone: "I have been waiting for so long, I think I'm all hungry. Since it's the emperor's banquet, let's not be polite. Let's start the meal now."

After saying that, Liu Yiuan picked up a piece of crystal meat and put it in Xiaohui's bowl, and signaled everyone on the table to move the chopsticks.

"Brother, I don't know where the prince..." Liu Erzhao asked softly after getting up and pouring a glass of wine for Liu Yiu.

"Mingze, there is no need for too many people to serve here. Just keep it yourself and let everyone else go down first." Without directly answering the second son's question, Liu Yi winked at Chen Mingze and gave a soft command.

"Yes, young master!" Seeing that their boss had no intention of avoiding him, Chen Mingze felt warm and knew that his boss had regarded him as a real confidant. For him, this sentence from his boss was enough. Therefore, after sending all the servants out, Chen Mingze also bent down slightly to salute the eldest master, and also cleverly chose to avoid it.

"Although the prince was seriously injured, he had no worries about his life." After replying softly, Liu Yiuan looked at their second brother-in-law and said, "Tell me what happened to you, why did you suddenly become fourth-rank officials?"

"Talk about this," Liu Ertiao and Zhang Chuchuwen looked at each other, and then Zhang Chuwen took the lead and said: "Brother Wei still feels a little confused until now, as if he is in a fog. From this morning, it seems that suddenly countless political achievements have fallen on Brother Wei's head, which is directly caught by Brother Wei's surprise."

"People's livelihood, major cases, major crimes, finance, taxation, and good things one after another. In just three or four hours, the political achievements and influence on Brother Wei's head were several times more than all the achievements made by Brother Wei in the past year. After that, just after noon, an imperial edict came from Chang'an and directly summoned Brother Wei. After that, the emperor personally received the meeting, and then there was a commendation from the fourth-rank officer Wailang."

"The situation on my side is exactly the same as Brother Chu Wen. I only learned about Brother Chu Wen's return in the Tai Chi Hall." Seeing that Brother looked at him, Liu Erzhao also spoke with her voice and asked Liu Yi, "Brother, are these things all done by you?"
