355. Granting the Land of Lu, Duke Zhou (Requesting Full Order)

After the meeting of the Imperial Academy came to an end. Google search reading

Princess Jinxian invited Bai Gui to visit Jinxian Temple and apologize in person.

Ever since Bai Gui abolished the throne, he and Princess Jinxian have been a little "broken up", although they still practice Taoism together in the hope of becoming immortals. But Princess Jinxian has always been a little angry, after all, Bai Gui has been suspected of "usurping" the Li Tang Dynasty.

She still has some feelings for her brother Li Longji.

As the eldest princess of the Tang Dynasty, she can allow Bai Gui to make friends and expand his power, but she can't watch Bai Gui usurp their Li Tang Dynasty.

Now that Bai Gui has revealed his intention to retire, she knows that she has wronged Bai Gui.

So she invited Bai Gui to her mansion and personally hosted a banquet to apologize.

Jinxian Temple.

During the banquet.

"Brother Bai Dao, after you were honored as the father-in-law by Mao'er, I always thought that I was a sinner of the Tang Dynasty and almost became the Queen Mother..."

"Now it seems that I have wronged you, Brother Bai Dao. I didn't misjudge you."

Princess Jin Xian sighed and said.

After Bai Gui established Shou Wang Li Mao as the emperor, she always thought that she had let the wolf into the house and became the Queen Mother of Wang Zhengjun, who promoted the Wang family and Wang Mang.

But now it seems that she is much better than Wang Zhengjun and has met a good man.

"The princess did nothing wrong."

"Anyone who puts himself in the princess's situation will misunderstand me."

Bai Gui shook his head.

When Wang Zhengjun believed in Wang Mang, didn't he also think that Wang Mang was a good nephew and supported Wang Mang to take control of the government.

With the lessons of the ancients, it is normal for Princess Jin Xian to think so.

However, Princess Jin Xian still has a certain trust in him. As the eldest princess, she stabilizes the royal family members and does not attack him for the time being, otherwise it will also be a troublesome matter.

It was just some anger, which was understandable.

If it were him, he would not be much better.

In addition, the fact that the emperor could not practice Taoism was obviously unknown to Princess Jinxian, and he could not easily reveal the secret.

So many emperors in the past dynasties sought Taoism, but they did not know this. If he said it, it might leave trouble.

It is better to hide it in the heart.

"Tonight, Jinxian will let Brother Baidao deal with it..."

"It is an apology."

Princess Jinxian's cheeks were slightly red, and her voice was as soft as a mosquito.

The two shielded their left and right, entered the inner courtyard of the back garden, and asked about the mystery.

...

About half a month later, Bai Gui finally prepared to retire and give the position of prime minister to Zhang Jiuling.

In the court.

Bai Gui sat on the Danbi with a sword, which was also the position on the right side of the dragon throne.

Acting as regent.

"Are you really going to... retire? Practice Taoism and not care about worldly affairs from now on?"

The young emperor suppressed his inner excitement, his face returned to calm, pretending to be sad, and asked stutteringly.

He had heard a lot about this matter these days.

But when it was really confirmed, he still couldn't help himself.

Under Bai Gui, he didn't dare to act recklessly, but once Bai Gui abdicated, he felt that it wouldn't be too difficult for him to rule the country with his own ability.

Bai Gui nodded.

Li Mao was relieved after getting the confirmation.

"The father-in-law has the grace of rebuilding the country..."

"Announce my will, give the land of Lu to the father-in-law as a food fief, change the title to the King of Lu, and grant the title of Kaifu Yitong Sansi Sanguan..."

He said.

Although Bai Gui was doing the things of Yi Yin and Huo Guang, on the surface, Li Mao still had to give Bai Gui face and regarded Bai Gui as Zhou Gong. Zhou Gong's fiefdom was Lu.

So changing Bai Gui's fiefdom to Lu was very obvious.

He had already respected Bai Gui as Zhou Gong. If he committed treason again, how would the people of the world view him as the father-in-law? !

"I... obey your order!"

Bai Gui stood up and accepted the order.

...

Since Bai Gui retired, the young emperor Li Mao began to prepare to rule the country impatiently. However, the emperor can only rule the country after he is crowned.

Crowning means becoming an adult. In ancient times, people could crown in advance.

But crowning cannot be separated from the approval of his father.

Bai Gui followed Li Mao's wishes and agreed to his crowning and began to rule the country.

But soon the young emperor Li Mao found that his imperial power was constrained everywhere. This was not because someone deliberately obstructed it, but in the entire central structure, the emperor's power in the future was pitifully small, and the group of ministers in the political hall were the ones who really had real power.

However, Bai Gui no longer cared about the trivial matters in the court.

He had enough back-up plans.

Everyone loves power.

Once the power of the ministers is greater than the power of the emperor, if you want to reverse it, it will only be the next change of dynasty, or a wise and powerful emperor will appear among the emperors. In the former case, if the Tang Dynasty perished, then the events of the later dynasties would have nothing to do with Bai Gui. In the latter case, the possibility of occurrence is very small.

The prime minister who passed the imperial examinations and experienced many years of official career basically crushed the little emperor raised by the women in the deep palace.

Not everyone is Napoleon III.

(Napoleon III is Napoleon's nephew. He defeated many politicians and successfully ran for the president of the Second Republic. Then he became emperor through the change and was honored as Napoleon III by the Senate.)

The original Daiguo Mansion is now the Luwang Mansion.

In the study.

"In the Xianjian world, there are also various realms, such as the heaven, the demon, the monster, the ghost, etc., but these worlds are too dangerous. Not to mention the Jindan Zhenren, even if you become a terrestrial immortal, it is hard to predict whether it will be a blessing or a curse if you enter..."

"This time Huang Liang Yimeng has been there for nearly thirty years. If he were in the main world, it would be nearly four months."

Bai Gui thought to himself.

He has no curiosity to explore unknown mysteries.

If you mess around, people will die.

There is only one life.

He was very satisfied with everything he got in the human world.

The most valuable thing about people is contentment.

Besides, four months is already a long time. If he stays any longer, his father and Aunt Wang will become suspicious. Before he left the main world, he left a message in the house saying that he was going out to visit friends. But it's not good to have not written a letter to home for such a long time.

After Kunlun Mirror came to the world of Fairy Sword through Huang Liang Yimeng, it had already left a trail mark.

It is not difficult to go to the other realms of Immortal Sword if you have some cultivation.

This time when he came to the Fairy Sword World, he was also a little reckless and impulsive. He came in a hurry without taking care of his affairs in the main world.

Even though his father and Aunt Wang had a new child, they couldn't just leave without saying goodbye.

"But before leaving, we still need to explore the Penglai Cave..."

Bai Gui thought.

There is no way forward for the main world, and it is considered the end of the Dharma era. He rashly returned to the main world. Without the abundant inspiration in the Immortal Sword World, returning to the main world would be a waste of time.

But the last time he helped Yang Yuhuan suppress the memory of Fairy Penglai, he learned that Penglai Cave had suffered a catastrophe and was now just a broken cave...

"Alang, Minister Yang wants to see you."

Outside the door, there was a knock on the door from the maid, and she asked softly.

In the Tang Dynasty, there was no title of master. The slaves called the male master Alang, and the mistress and young lady were called Niangzi.

"Let him in."

Bai Gui nodded and said.

The Yang Shilang the maid outside the door mentioned was Yang Xuanyan. Yang Xuanyan had defected to Bai Gui early and was regarded as a confidant. At first, he served as Bai Gui's subordinate official. Over the years, he was successfully promoted to the rank of Shilang of the Ministry of Industry.

"Bai Xiang..."

Yang Xuanyan entered the door, bowed and saluted with a humble attitude.

If Bai Gui was older than him, it would be more appropriate to call him Bai Gong in private, but now that Bai Gui is much younger than him, it is somewhat inappropriate to call him Bai Gong.

"I am no longer Prime Minister, you don't have to be polite."

Bai Gui waved his hand and said.

"Tell me, what do you want from me now?"

he asked.

After he took office, he made it clear that he would not be disturbed by courtiers. Yang Xuanyan would not be so ignorant.

"Xiang Bai..., King Lu, it's like this. My daughter suddenly felt unwell, so she asked the official to come to see King Lu. The official didn't know what was going on, so she had to come in person..."

Yang Xuanyan hesitated.

If you say Cao Cao is coming, Cao Cao will come.

Bai Gui knew in his heart that this should be the memory of Fairy Penglai awakening again. Yang Yuhuan could not suppress it, so he asked Yang Xuanyan to come over and invite him to Yang Mansion to help her.

And Yang Xuanyan definitely didn't dare to send a servant to invite him casually, so he rushed to Prince Lu's Mansion and asked to see him.
