Chapter 1713 Compromise

Tibetan Heron Garden.

From early in the morning to the middle of the day, the negotiations gradually came to an end.

From the distribution of benefits, to the distribution of titles, the royal family gave way again and again.

However, after Li Ziye proposed the request of hereditary succession, the negotiations completely stalled.

No matter in any era, the privilege of being hereditary is the last thing the royal family wants to grant.

Even the Martial Kings with the highest status in the Great Merchants were unable to pass the throne to their heirs.

Although in history, there are many emperors who have abolished the hereditary privileges of some princes, but it is not so easy to make this decision.

It's not a big mistake, even the emperor dare not make such a decision lightly, because hereditary succession is the highest praise the royal family can give to the courtiers, and if the courtiers have no major faults, if they take it back at will, it is the emperor's dishonesty.

In this way, how could there be courtiers willing to serve such an unfaithful emperor.

It can even be said that the four characters of hereditary rebellion, to a certain extent, are equivalent to a gold medal for avoiding death. As long as it is not a crime of treason, almost everyone can avoid death once.

This is also the fundamental reason why the Emperor Shang specially ordered that the Li family should not be given the right to be hereditary.

You can be granted a title, but hereditary cannot be replaced.

It's a pity that in the game of masters, there will always be someone who is better.

There is no doubt that this time, the winning side is the Li family who has more opportunities.

Because the royal family desperately wanted to get the soul-repelling pearl, so they had to give in.

"Professor Li."

On the main seat, Empress Changsun suppressed the waves in her heart and said, "This palace can be the master, enfeoffing your father as a prince of ten thousand households. In addition, granting Ganyang City next to Yuzhou City as your father's fiefdom. With such sincerity, Li Jiaoxi is still satisfied." ?”

"Heritage does not replace."

Li Ziye smiled, uttered four words indifferently, and still refused to budge.

The enemy retreats and advances, this is the rule, how can he not know how to praise.

Empress Changsun saw that the guy in front of her was indifferent, her complexion changed slightly, she wanted to get angry, but she couldn't, her heart ached.

So annoying.

When they worked together before, they didn't think that, but now that they are rivals, they realize that this kid is so difficult to deal with.

"elder sister."

On the side, the eldest grandson Nanqiao noticed her sister's expression, and a look of surprise flashed in her eyes.

What's going on here?

If you feel embarrassed, just refuse. Negotiations don't have to be done in a day.

"Brother, don't you say a few words?"

On the other side, Murong also noticed the face of the queen mother, lowered his voice, and reminded, "The queen mother is about to be pissed off by that Li Jiaoxi."

"What?" Mu Bai asked softly.

"Help the queen to suppress that guy's arrogance."

Murong said in a low voice, "Isn't brother and Li Jiaoxi quite friendly? If you speak up, he should give some face."

"face?"

Mu Bai asked calmly, "Do you think that guy will give me face?"

Murong was stunned for a moment, and then a helpless look appeared on his face.

It seems not.

"let me try."

Mu Bai sighed softly, looked at the old friends in the seat, and said, "Li Jiaoxi, none of the eight imperial merchants, including the Changsun family, has given the privilege of hereditary replacement. This rule cannot be broken."

"His Royal Highness, it seems that the laws of great merchants do not stipulate that the families of merchants cannot have hereditary nobles."

During the banquet, Li Ziye turned the teacup in his hand and said with a smile, "The Li family has risen at the end of the century. If the royal family can give such a family of merchants without aristocratic background the hereditary and irreplaceable courtesy, I think it will be a great deal for the people of the world. From now on, everyone in the world knows how much the Great Shang court attaches great importance to capable people, regardless of background or background, as long as one aspect is outstanding enough, even the lowest-ranked businessman can reach the sky in one step."

Beside the main seat, Mu Bai was silent, not wanting to speak.

He knew that this guy would not give him face.

In fact, what this guy said is right. Throughout the ages, the power of hereditary replacements has only been given to high-ranking relatives of the emperor, and courtiers born in common clothes. alternate privilege.

These old-fashioned rules should have been changed a long time ago.

"Bai'er, you decide."

On the main seat, Empress Changsun looked at her son-in-law and said softly, "Now, you are the supervisor of the country, and you have the right to decide some things on behalf of your father."

Mu Bai glanced at his mother in surprise, thought for a moment, put down the cup in his hand, and said, "My king agrees to Li Jiaoxi's request."

"Your Highness!"

Among the seats, several princes were shocked when they heard that His Royal Highness agreed to such an outrageous request.

For a family lord who was born as a merchant to grant the title of Marquis, which is hereditary and irreplaceable, it is simply unimaginable and absurd to the world.

"Thank you Fourth Highness, thank you Empress!"

In the opposite seat, Li Ziye stood up, cupped his hands and bowed, his attitude was so polite and respectful, and he didn't have the arrogant and domineering, villainous face just now.

In front of the princes, Mu Wuan saw this completely unexpected result, and his face was very ugly.

He didn't understand how the Fourth Highness and the Empress would dare to agree to such a request.

Aren't you afraid that His Majesty will be furious?

The breeze was blowing slightly, and during the banquet, everyone looked different. It was a weird negotiation. The royal family changed from its previous strength and retreated step by step. The Li family won a big victory.

The result was decided, and what followed was a fruitless exchange of greetings. Not long after, the banquet was over and they each left.

"The Queen Mother."

After the Li family's son left the meeting, Mu Wu'an couldn't bear it any longer, and asked, "The Li family's request for the privilege of hereditary succession is obviously ill-intentioned, why does the empress agree?"

"That's what Your Majesty meant."

Empress Changsun sighed softly, "I don't know the exact reason yet."

"What do you mean, Your Majesty?"

When Mu Wu'an heard this, his heart was shocked, and his face revealed an expression of disbelief.

how can that be!

His imperial brother has always been very jealous of the Li family, how could he be so tolerant of the Li family.

Hereditary replacement, that is a privilege that even the royal family does not have, and it is almost a privilege to avoid death once.

Outside the Tibetan Heron Garden.

Under the scorching sun, Li Ziye walked out alone, heading straight for Li Yuan.

Along the way, the forbidden army came and went, and they were still cleaning up the mess of the two people's riots in the capital.

"Professor Li."

Suddenly, at the end of the street, Xu Hanlin came with a pair of officers and soldiers, blocked the way, and said, "Please go to Jingmu Mansion with me."

Li Ziye looked at the acquaintance in front of him, smiled faintly, and asked, "Why?"

"Use force in the street, and use force to violate the ban."

Xu Hanlin said seriously, "According to the regulations, you must go to the Jingmu Mansion to explain the ins and outs."

"I'm not the one Mr. Jingmu should arrest the most, right?"

Li Ziye responded with a smile on his face, "Everyone saw it, it was Lu Wentian who did it first, I was just forced to fight back to protect myself."

"Even if what Li Jiaoxi said is true, I still have to go to the Jingmu Mansion. The law is like this. Li Jiaoxi should not make things difficult for me." Xu Hanlin said seriously.

"What if I say no?" Li Ziye said calmly.

"The official can only offend."

While speaking, Xu Hanlin waved his hand, signaling the officers and soldiers behind him to take him away.

"My lord, wait a minute."

Seeing this, Li Ziye immediately confessed, and said with a smile, "I'll go with my lord!"
