"Alright ~! This old man is here to tell you about this clue. Xiao Xuan, you have to be prepared. Leaving such a powerful master in the dark is not a long-term solution. This old man will ask someone to follow this clue, but Xiao Xuan, you have to be careful too! I know that you have been busy building your Yanhuang College recently, so this old man won't stay here any longer. If there's anything I can help with, feel free to tell this old man! "
Qin Qiong, who was confused by Li Zexuan's nonsense, looked at the time and stood up.
"Yes, thank you for coming to tell me!"
Li Zexuan stood up and bowed solemnly to the two old men.
The news that Qin Qiong brought today was too important. At least it gave him a direction to investigate. It was much better than him looking around aimlessly.
"Haha ~! No worries ~! Xiao Xuan, you have to find time to teach the complete version of Tai Chi to this old man when you're done with your work. To be honest, after practicing the simplified version for two days, I feel much more energetic! This fist technique is amazing ~! "
Qin Qiong laughed and waved his hand.
Cheng Yaojin's eyes lit up when he heard this. He shouted, "Tai Chi? What Tai Chi? Xiao Xuan, did you teach Second Brother Qin some kind of divine skill? I want to practice it too! "
Li Zexuan was about to answer when Qin Qiong laughed and said, "Zhijie, if you want to practice it, follow me to my residence later. I'll teach you. But with your personality, I'm afraid you won't be able to practice it then! Haha ~! "
This was the truth. With Cheng Chumo's carefree appearance, if he could really practice Tai Chi patiently, Li Zexuan would find it incredible. Just thinking about it was a beautiful scene!
"Ha ~! Second Brother Qin, you're looking down on me. Let's go and try it now ~! "
Cheng Yaojin laughed and pulled Qin Qiong away.
Li Zexuan sent the two old generals to the gate and was about to return to the Western Courtyard when he saw a group of people rushing towards him. Li Zexuan recognized the leader. It was Chamberlain Liu, who had come to his house to pass on the imperial edict. The four people beside him should also be the eunuchs from the palace. But why did Pang Feiji bring his subordinates along? Could it be that Brother Chicken also entered the palace as a eunuch?
This shouldn't be the case!
A big question mark appeared in Li Zexuan's mind.
"Congratulations, Li Xiannan! In less than a month, you've been promoted again! That's something worth celebrating ~! "
The smile on Liu Wenchang's face was like a blooming chrysanthemum. He walked up to Li Zexuan and cupped his hands.
Today, the young man in front of him was no longer the inexperienced brat from before. Instead, he had faintly become a giant in the Imperial Court, and no one dared to ignore him.
"Haha, thank you for your auspicious words, Chamberlain Liu. Please come in, please come in!"
Li Zexuan guessed that the imperial edict to confer the title of Crown Prince Zhan Shi had officially arrived. He hurriedly greeted them with a smile.
Everyone entered the courtyard.
Of course, Li Zexuan wasn't the only one who came out to receive such a grand ceremony. Li Jingmo, Madam Li, Han Yuxi, and the others had already put on their auspicious clothes and came out to receive the imperial edict.
The incense table was set up. Li Jingmo, Li Zexuan, and the others stood at the side with their hands cupped. Chamberlain Liu stood facing the south with his back facing the north. He coughed lightly and said, "The Emperor of the Tang Empire has decreed that a good son named Li Zexuan has created the paper machine, established a strange culture, stabilized the price of books, and promoted education.
Perhaps it was because Li Zexuan's conferment had already been discussed in the Imperial Court for an entire morning, and there wasn't much to debate. Therefore, today's imperial edict was very concise and to the point. The meaning was also very easy to understand. At the very least, Li Zexuan himself could understand it.
The first half of the imperial edict was nothing more than repeating what Li Zexuan had said in the morning court, including some of his main achievements and urging the construction of Yanhuang College. These were all within Li Zexuan's expectations. However, as he listened, he felt that something wasn't right. Li Zexuan seemed to particularly like to do "extra surprises" recently!
"In view of the great responsibility Li Zexuan has, I order the Right Marquis Wei Sige Pang Feiji and the 48 Marquis under Li Zexuan's command temporarily. They will immediately take up the post and be deployed by him. They will also protect him thoroughly. The Li Residence will be responsible for the use of this team of Marquis in the future! The Marquis guards around the Strange Pavilion and the Strange Culture will be deployed by the Right Marquis Wei Residence. Imperial decree ~! "
Not only was Li Zexuan shocked, but Li Jingmo was also in a state of confusion after hearing the imperial edict. What did Li Zexuan mean by this? Not only did he promote Li Zexuan, he also sent a team of guards over. This was basically equivalent to a personal guard! What kind of treatment was this?
After being stunned for a while, they came back to their senses when Chamberlain Liu coughed dryly. Li Zexuan hurriedly received the imperial edict with both hands. He couldn't help but ask in a small voice, "Chamberlain Liu, what does His Majesty mean by this ~?"
Chamberlain Liu glanced around and said in a small voice, "As a servant, how would I know what His Majesty is thinking? However, before we came, His Majesty told you to speed up the construction of Yanhuang College and to pay attention to your own safety. Regarding yesterday's assassination, I hope Lord Jue can be alerted. The mastermind behind yesterday's assassination is very likely to make another move ~!"
"I see. I will engrave His Majesty's warning in my heart. Chamberlain Liu, please tell me ~! Ah Fu ~! "
Li Zexuan cupped his hands and thanked him. Then, he called for Ah Fu to bring the tray over. Since he was in this circle, he still had to abide by these unspoken rules!
"Haha ~! Lord Li is too courteous, too courteous. Then, I won't disturb you any further. I will return to the palace to report on the completion of the mission! "
Chamberlain Liu was carried by everyone. Li Zexuan was in a high position, yet he still gave him face. Chamberlain Liu was tactful and quickly took his leave.
"Take care, Chamberlain Liu!"
…
After the Chamberlain Liu left, there was a burst of cheers in the Li Residence. Compared to Li Zexuan's promotion to the Directorate, this promotion was obviously more important. Whether it was his official position or his function, Crown Prince Zhan Shi had completely surpassed the Directorate's Directorate.
This was equivalent to being transferred from Peking University's principal to the State Council's office. This position already allowed him to come into contact with the core of power.
Li Jingmo and his wife held the imperial edict and flipped it over in their hands. From time to time, they would whisper and laugh. Their joy was evident in their words. Li Zexuan started chatting with Brother Chicken.
"Haha ~! Lord Jue, I didn't expect that I, Old Pang, would be transferred to your side. This is great! "
Today, Li Zexuan was promoted. But to Brother Chicken, this was also considered a promotion. This fellow was equivalent to going from "factory security head" to "boss's personal bodyguard".
"Haha ~! Feiji, don't you think that your status as Marquis Wu Si Ge is being wronged by me ~? "
Li Zexuan asked with a smile.
