However, even if there is no fear of the queen mother Wu Cao on his head this time, Li Xian, who still can't change his personality, still can't be the master of this huge empire, and he is still like a puppet, being fiddled back and forth by his wife Empress Wei and his sister Princess Changping, and he doesn't dare to resist.
In addition, after Wu Cao's death, the Wu clan power was not eradicated in time in the court...... The three forces, sometimes fighting for power, sometimes for win-win cooperation, stirred up the miasma of the government and government, and created chaos.
……
And in this chaos, Zhou Ming, who landed on the mainland again, entered the imperial capital of the Great Zhou, and lived in the mansion of Princess Changping, mainly had two purposes.
One, who previously assisted Wu Cao's side, such as Shangguan Yu'er, Xie Yaohuan, Lu Lingxuan and other female officials, were all women who had a husband and wife with him during the seven years that Zhou Ming was trapped in the imperial capital, and they all gave birth to children.
Seeing his lover who had not seen him for many years, he returned from overseas and took him out of the palace, Shangguan Yuer and others cried with joy, and packed their bags, took their children and grandchildren, and went overseas with him...... And the overseas country, they have heard a lot, it is a free and magical place, they stay in this palace all the year round, live a cautious, walking on thin ice life, they also want to go to the outside world to see, breathe fresh air, and go to the bloody palace in the palace.
The second is Princess Changping, who has mastered half of the power in the court, and wrote a letter to him, saying that she wanted to make a deal with him, and the specific content of the transaction surprised Zhou Ming.
"Princess Changping, do you also want to be the empress and ascend to the throne?"
It turned out that after knowing that Zhou Ming had an invincible army equipped with divine weapons in his hands, Li Changping, who also had that little thought, wanted to borrow troops from him to help her sit in that position and become the second empress.
"My queen mother can be the emperor, why can't I do it? Tian Zihua, if you are willing to help me, I will make our son Li Wei the crown prince, and after my death, he will inherit the throne, how about this?"
Princess Changping said, in her hands, what is most lacking now is the support of the army, if Zhou Ming agrees to help her, she is 100% sure that she can break the three-legged situation of today's court, and after breaking the trick with strength and sweeping away all opposition forces, she can also be like her mother Wu Cao, ascending the throne as the emperor.
And her son Li Wei is in her hand, said to move Zhou Ming's biggest bargaining chip, this son born from a night of joy between the two, as soon as he was born, he showed far more intelligence than other children, since he was a child, he has the ability to never forget, his personality is fierce, and he is born with divine power, when he was eleven years old, he beat those brothers who often bullied him and were older than him for half a round, the ghost cried wolf, and at the age of sixteen, no one dared to provoke in the entire princess's mansion, hated and feared, but helpless.
Princess Changping didn't know, whether it was because the Hehuan powder was too powerful, her son, after birth, can only be described by the word "fierce", and he has a tiger face, not angry and self-threatening, a Taoist priest from Youfang saw him, exclaimed: "The appearance of the dragon and tiger, unspeakably expensive!" Since then, Princess Changping has been on her heart, and the maternal love poured into this son far exceeds that of other sons, and let him take a name called "Wei" from his surname.
Zhou Ming shook his head and said: "You can't do it, you can't compare to your mother Wu Cao, an empress, is already the bottom line in people's hearts, and if there is another one, I'm afraid the whole world will turn against you...... You should understand the psychology of men, no man can accept two women in a row, giving orders on his head. Think about your mother, who killed so many people, only ascended to the throne at the age of 67, and was still ousted from power by her cronies when she was seriously ill, do you think you can overcome even greater resistance than your mother?"
"Why can't you do it? Lend me all the army in your hands, and whoever disobeys will be killed!
Li Changping, who was poured a large basin of cold water, glared at Zhou Ming angrily.
"If you insist on doing this against the sky, I will not lend you a soldier. Zhou Ming shook his head, the stubbornness and willfulness of some women is an unsolvable problem.
"You-"
Li Changping pointed at him, angrily wanting to say that I can do it without your help, but his attitude still softened, his eyes rolled slyly, and he suddenly came up with an idea, and called his twenty-three-year-old son Li Wei over and asked them to recognize each other...... A few days later, after a cloud and rain, Li Changping said to Zhou Ming next to his pillow: "Wrongdoer, you only need to borrow thousands of heavenly soldiers from me, this great Zhou world is our family's, why take care of other people's feelings? I am the empress, you are the overseas emperor, and our son will inherit our world, isn't this the arrangement of heaven?"
Speaking of this, Li Changping, who was already flushed, was even more red-faced, and he was so excited that he couldn't help himself.
Zhou Ming pushed her away, half-sat and thought for a while, feeling that his son Li Wei was scheming, wise and brave, behaved, quite superior, and had a long-term knowledge than ordinary people...... After thinking about it, he said to Princess Changping: "I will lend you a thousand musketeers, but only for five years, these five years, you strive to help Li Wei to the throne, and after five years, I will not care about anything." ”
Zhou Ming didn't dare to borrow too many musketeers to this woman, for fear that if she accidentally made a big news, caused chaos in the world, and touched the system punishment mechanism, then he would be finished.
"Good, good!"
Princess Changping was overjoyed, kissed him several times on his face, and then moved his jade face downward, and actually helped him bite it.
……
In the following five years, the royal family of the Great Zhou Dynasty changed frequently, and there were several blood lights.
First of all, in the third year of Shenlong, the change of the crown prince Li Chongjun killed Wu Sansi and others, taking this opportunity, Empress Wei and Princess Changping joined forces to clean the Wu forces in the DPRK, and the three-legged situation in the DPRK and China became two factions on equal footing, but Princess Changping pretended to cater to Empress Wei, saying that she supported her as the emperor, and Empress Wei also needed her support, and the two factions were safe.
On the eighteenth day after the death of Zhongzong, when Empress Wei ordered the ministers to write a persuasion table and prepare to ascend the throne, Princess Changping and Li Long, the king of Linzi, jointly launched a military coup d'état on the grounds that Empress Wei poisoned the first emperor, killed Empress Wei and Princess Anle, and purged the forces of Empress Wei in the court.
At this point, only Princess Changping remained, and Li Long, the king of Linzi, who had a lot of military power and an elite "ten thousand cavalry" under his command, became the last two forces competing for the fruits of victory.
Eight days later, Li Long, the king of Linzi, took the lead and sent more than 10,000 soldiers and horses to besiege the palace of Princess Changping...... Li Long, who thought that after taking this last step, he would succeed, was just about to be crowned emperor in the Taiji Palace, when there was a sudden sound of "bang bang" outside the hall, and a general covered in blood came in and reported: "Lord, the ten thousand cavalry besieging the palace have all been wiped out, and Princess Changping has come over with soldiers and horses!"
"What?!"
Li Ji, who had only put on half of the dragon robe, immediately took off the dragon robe, threw it aside, and fled in a hurry with the remnants of his subordinates, but was killed by his subordinates halfway, and his subordinates took his head and exchanged it for 100,000 taels of gold from the Empress Dowager Changping.
With the help of a thousand musketeers to clear the last obstacles, put his son Li Wei on the throne, let him enter the genealogy of the Li Zhou royal family, and after receiving the support of most officials, it can be regarded as justifiable, the Empress Dowager Changping, who became the master of the Great Zhou artifact, has been a long-cherished wish for many years, and it is once fulfilled, and finally the dream has come true.
At this time, Princess Changping, who sat on the throne of the queen mother, it was impossible to say that she had no desire and impulse to be the emperor in her heart, but she still followed the man's advice and did not take that risky step.
She thought to herself: Anyway, in this world, it is already her son's, and her son's is her own, Wei'er is still young, and some government affairs are still very unfamiliar......
It turned out that what Li Changping fought in his heart was to weigh the system in the dynasty, and to act as the queen mother, for his son Li Wei, and to manage the idea of the world for a few years.
However, Li Changping still underestimated his son Li Wei too much, and also far underestimated the growth rate of this son, less than half a year after she came to the dynasty to take control, in the 1,000-strong musketeer army, less than five days after leaving the imperial capital, an army that came out of nowhere suddenly appeared in her dormitory, and put her under house arrest on the grounds that the queen mother was sick.
In the next few years, the Empress Dowager Changping, who was imprisoned in the deep palace, was stunned to see that her son Li Wei first vigorously rectified the soldiers and horses, formed a Tianjie army of 100,000 people, and then took this army, with the momentum of thunder, in just a few months, he put down several rebellions in the country, and the rebels were all wiped out by him, and no one was left.
After the domestic situation was completely stabilized, the new emperor Li Wei showed his eloquence and strategy, he used people properly, rewards and punishments were clear, Wen Tao and Wu strategy, through the heavens and latitudes, he only took less than four years to form an elite army of 500,000 people, equipped with a large number of firearms, personally led the army to the west, and first destroyed Tufan, The two Turkic countries, from the Western Regions of 10,000 miles, and then to the west, destroyed the Worship Fire Empire and the Black-clothed Great Food, and even once hit the Red Sea Desert, destroying countless countries along the way, occupying a large territory along the way, and finally returning to the imperial capital of Zhongzhou with countless treasures and prisoners, as well as hundreds of thousands of generals and soldiers who enthusiastically supported him.
……
Zhou Ming, who was far away in the overseas country, saw this young son who became the emperor, within half a year, seize power and pro-government, and in five years, he personally led a large army and opened up more than five million square kilometers of land, ambitious, ambitious, and even had the tendency and action to rule the entire world, and was surprised, Zhou Ming also secretly sighed: This son, he has not taught for a day, but his talent, especially the talent of the king, does not know how much more than his brothers and sisters.
At the same time, Zhou Ming was also very happy in his heart, the higher the achievements of this son, the more benefits he would bring, because in the scoring rules of the system: although the achievements made by the player's descendants will not be included in the player's achievements, the player also has a certain amount of extra points, and the higher the achievements of the descendants, the more additional points the player will have.
But......
It didn't take long for Zhou Ming to stop laughing, and even stomped his feet angrily, wanting to cut people.
It turned out that not long after Li Wei led the army back to the imperial capital, he didn't know if he listened to the slander of the minister, and even aimed a knife at his father's Zihua Book House, and issued a book burning order across the country: Completely eradicate the Zihua Book House in the country, burn all the demon books that confuse people's hearts, and ask the people to hand over all the demon books in their hands.
So, under the coercion of the butcher's knife, in just three months, this book-burning order was implemented very thoroughly in ten states across the country, more than 3,000 Zihua bookstores were closed, more than 5,000 bookstore managers and printing house directors were beheaded for public display, and more than 10,000 innocent people who collected "demon books" were also killed.
In just a few months, Zhou Ming's more than 40 years of hard work and layout were destroyed in one fell swoop, and tens of millions of copies of magazines and periodicals such as "Zihua Anthology", "Comics", and "Science" were burned.
Looking at the loss report in his hand, Zhou Ming was distressed, and let out a wry smile: "Li Wei, Li Wei, it seems that you want to be the second emperor of the first emperor, and you can even do such a thing as burning books and pit your father......"
