"I dare to take a copy for Long Zi, whose name is Wenyuan."

Li Shiji stood up at this time, and all the ministers looked at him. No one knew who this man was. They just felt that this small minister was bringing up irrelevant issues and daring to compete for limelight with the prime minister.

Li Shiji ignored the gazes of the ministers and just explained the meaning to His Majesty.

To expand the territory is to expand the territory in all directions.

If the crown prince ascends the throne in the future, he should expand the territory and have the ambition to unify the four directions to demonstrate the power of the Han Dynasty, rather than being a king who only maintains the status quo by being benevolent to the world.

It should not be passed down far away for ten, a hundred, or even ten thousand generations.

If we cannot even achieve our ambition of unifying the four directions, then what is the point of talking about achieving it for ten, a hundred, or even ten thousand generations?

"Not bad, not bad." Wen Yan nodded with satisfaction, and then looked at the ministers to see what they thought and which one should be chosen.

"You can stand on the side of whichever side you think is better." Wen Yan dug a big trap for the ministers.

The ministers were discussing the matter. The Confucian scholars all agreed to take the position of prime minister, while the aristocratic families all chose Wen Rao.

As for Wen Yuan, whom Li Shiji chose, only Ren Hao, Shen He, and the former Minister of Revenue Liu supported him.

Although the other officials of the Ministry of Revenue were promoted by Liu, at this critical moment, they did not stand for Li Shiji like Liu, but stood on the side of the prime minister or Censor Chen.

Eh.

The old Shangshu Liu secretly sighed, how could these officials who were promoted by her personally suddenly become ignorant at this critical juncture? They were really stupid.

Even if they were dissatisfied with Ren Hao, Li Shiji, and Shen He, they could not stand on the wrong side at this critical juncture.

If you stand on the wrong side, losing your official hat is a small matter, but losing your head is a big deal.

Ren Hao knew clearly that the so-called naming of the dragon son was just an excuse for the emperor to test the relationship within the Qing Dynasty.

Things may have been difficult to distinguish before, but now the factions in the court can be seen clearly at a glance.

The two most powerful factions were the prime minister's faction headed by the prime minister, and the aristocratic faction which was composed of the censor and the five ministers.

Although Confucian scholars are also a faction, they have no real power in the court and can be ignored.

As for the imperial faction in the court, there are only four people headed by Ren Hao.

Wen Yan glanced at the ministers and then looked at Ren Hao who remained silent.

She suddenly felt unhappy.

It is true that this dragon is hers, but it is also Ren Hao's.

He just kept silent like a piece of wood?

No.

He also had to nominate a name for the child and make him the prince's tutor.

After all, Ren Hao is the world's number one genius, with a wide range of experience and profound knowledge.

If he can be the prince's teacher, then the prince will have no worries about achieving great things in the future.

"My dear Minister Ren, you are a rare man in the world today. I see that you have not said anything. Have you been thinking about what name should be most appropriate for my son?" Wen Yan lowered his voice and looked at Ren Hao among the officials.

All the ministers looked at Ren Hao at this time.

"Your Majesty, whether it's the teacher, the prime minister, the censor, or Minister Li, the names and meanings they chose are better than mine."

"I am incompetent." Ren Hao shook his head, as if he really hadn't thought about the name.

After all, the dragon boy is not his son, so why should he worry about it?

Seeing Ren Hao acting as if it had nothing to do with her, Wen Yan became more and more angry.

"I will give you one minute to choose a name for my son."

"If you can't take out a suitable one within one minute, I will punish you... punish you to rinse in the tribute bucket for three days!!!" Wen Yan ordered.

As soon as these words were spoken, many ministers covered their mouths and laughed.

This so-called tribute bucket is the toilet bucket in the palace, which is used by officials.

Ren Hao had no choice but to start thinking about it.

He didn't want to be called the Toilet Grand Master on his first day in office.

What should it be called?

There is a huge gap between naming in ancient times and naming in modern times, especially naming the future prince, which is a technical job.

If you don't have some culture, it would be difficult to achieve this.

These names with good meanings have already been taken by Zhao Ping'an and Li Shiji. What should I choose?

"Mr. Ren, have you thought it through? The time is almost up." Wen Yan reminded.

At this time, all the officials were gloating and wanted to see Ren Hao make a fool of himself.

Ren Hao thought quickly and decided to just go and beg for help.

If you can't think of a suitable one, just pick one that's already available and copy the name of the emperor of his previous dynasty, and that's it.

"I suggest that you give your son the courtesy name Xiu and the given name Wenzhao," Ren Hao asked.

As soon as he uttered the word "Xiu" (Xiu means "show"), he was immediately criticized by all the officials, who believed that Ren Hao was disrespecting the future emperor and intentionally insulting him.

Among all the people present, only Li Shiji and Shen He spoke to Ren Hao.

The old minister Liu did not help and felt that Ren Hao had gone too far.

Isn't it a mockery of Your Majesty to name this person "Xiu" Wen Zhao?

Wen Yan also frowned and said, "Ren Hao, are you crazy? I asked you to name the future prince, why did you name him a princess?"

"Your Majesty, who in this world stipulates that the name Xiu and Wen Zhao is only suitable for a princess and not for a prince?" Ren Hao retorted quickly and glanced at the ministers and officials present.

All the ministers were shocked. There is indeed no rule for the word "xiu" in this world. It only applies to women.

"Xiu has many meanings. As the saying goes, different people have different opinions. Xiu means outstanding and excellent."

"I believe that your Majesty in the future will definitely be better than the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, and will be able to create a great cause that will last for thousands of years and achieve great success for generations to come. Your virtue will be higher than the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, and your achievements will surpass those of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors."

"And the word Zhao in Wen Zhao means the sun, the moon, the mountains and the rivers."

"Wherever the sun and moon shine, wherever the mountains and rivers reach, all belongs to Han territory!!!" Ren Hao shouted in a sonorous and powerful voice.

How domineering this is.

At this moment, all the ministers in the court were infected by Ren Hao's voice and couldn't help but shout out loud.

"Good, good, good. What a great place! Wherever the sun and the moon shine, wherever the mountains and rivers reach, all belong to Han territory." Wen Yan nodded happily. This strange man is a strange man. The name he gave is just different.

Zhao Ping'an's face was extremely dark.

Compared with the idea that the sun and the moon shine, and that the mountains and rivers extend to tens of thousands of generations, which are all Han territory, the latter is the ultimate in flattery.

"I declare that the future crown prince will be named Liu Xiu, with the courtesy name Wenzhao."

"Appoint Ren Hao as the Prince's Tutor." Wen Yan stood up and announced.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Ren Hao hurriedly bowed to express his gratitude.

At this moment, whether it was Zhao Ping'an, Chen Yushi, or Ma Qian, they were all feeling depressed.

They all thought they could control the Prince's tutor, but they never expected that Ren Hao was the most hidden one.
