The civil officials of the Heng Dynasty quarreled in the main hall, and the young queen mother looked at the ministers below, her face like frost.

"The thief deceives people too much, and An dares to insult me like this!"

The Queen Mother roared in her heart, although the civil official group has made her suffer a lot in the past six months, it is the first time that she has been scolded by such names.

"Niangniang, if you can't bear it, you will make a big plan, you have to endure it for the sake of the overall situation." The surname Ji behind him is too much to supervise his words and feelings, and to convey the sound and persuasion.

"Good! Very good...... The squire of the Criminal Department is Qi Tongwei, the mourning family remembers you. ”

After the extreme anger, the angry young queen mother also slowly calmed down, she knew that even if Qi Tongwei was punished, there would be no loss to the entire civil official group, but it was possible that they could be used as evidence to shake their authority...... Maybe that's all for tomorrow's newspaper headlines.

"Linghu Zhang! As the chief priest of the Nine Dragons Temple, but your subordinates openly destroyed the dragon veins of humanity and trampled on the majesty of the dynasty, what crime should you be guilty of! ”

"Don't think about your own mistakes, but instead instruct officials who don't know anything to scold Your Highness, what kind of intentions do you have!"

"The bearded old thief, the first horseman! With the emperor's grace but helping to abuse, the shameless people in the world should be headed by you! ”

The retro party roared hoarsely in the main hall, and they did not give up the responsibility to the Dragon Temple, involving the life and death of the retro party, these people no longer cared about the face of the past, and completely tore their faces.

"What a shameless one! For months, I don't know which officials went around in the name of cracking down on anti-poetry, and finally it was out of control...... "The other factions jumped out and began to turn the debate to Stone Town.

"Half a month ago, a nine-year-old boy in Stone Town was arrested on the street, what did he do? He just read two poems! ”

"Shut up! I Daheng has its own national conditions here......"

"Ridiculous—"

"Ridiculous—"

Naturally, the retro party will not sit still, and Stone Town is not the only one involved, but now they are letting them take the blame alone, how can it be so easy.

As a result, the infighting in the court began to escalate, and all parties continued to break the news, and the competition for newspaper headlines became more and more fierce.

Compared with the quarrel of the Wenchen group, the military attache group on the other side of the hall was collectively silent at this time, some people had solemn faces, some people gloated, some people gritted their teeth, some people fell into contemplation, and some people were as absent-minded as the wind and fire, and so on......

The Queen Mother on the high platform frowned at their performance.

The leaders of the military attache group and the governors of the five armies are not in Yujing City, and in a sense, they are more dangerous than the civilian clique.

"Knowing this, the mourning family shouldn't have listened to the proposal of the Chu thief back then, and let those old handsomes resign and return to their hometowns." The Queen Mother couldn't help but feel remorse in her heart.

The military-industrial complex built by Emperor Wu still has a momentum after his death.

Although the most powerful People's Emperor Guards of the Heng Dynasty was destroyed in the Emperor Collapse Incident, the flying fleet was still there, the four border armies and the inland army were unscathed, and the military strength of the Heng Dynasty did not suffer much.

The subsequent Demon Destroying War perfectly reflected this, and the Heng Dynasty army still had the strength to suppress the whole Yunlu.

It's a pity that this kind of strength is a huge threat in the eyes of many people, and connecting with Xiao Qingshan, who is crazy about purging the old school, keeps many people awake at night.

Empress Dowager Gao Zhaorong is one of them, she is afraid of the combination of the military and the cabinet chief, and with the help of someone with a heart, this pattern has been changed......

The highest military institution of the Heng Dynasty, the Governor's Office of the Five Armies, changed from this.

At the time of the Restoration, there were a total of ten governors in the Governor's Office of the Five Armies, all of whom were important ministers and famous generals, controlling the internal and external military.

But three died when the emperor collapsed, two more died on the night of rain and blood, and the remaining five governors, except for Chu Tianqing, were all implicated by Xiao Qingshan and stepped down, and the governor's mansion of the five armies was in a vacuum for a while.

The Wenchen clique took the opportunity to incorporate the Governor's Office of the Five Armies into the cabinet system, so that the military department in the six ministries became the highest military institution above the Governor's Office, but this was fiercely opposed by the military attache group.

The young queen mother, who thought that she would be able to let go of the ruling power by defeating Xiao Qingshan, found that the government and the opposition did not sell her favors, and the new civil and military officials put this merit on Chu Tianque, she was still a puppet, and her status and prestige were worse than before.

Remorseful Gao Zhaorong could only lick her wounds silently in the deep palace, she posed as a clay puppet in the court, and began to study history books in the harem to cultivate power.

When she came to power again half a year ago, in addition to the eunuchs and female official groups around her, she also won the support of the national teacher, but this still did not change her situation, although the Manchu civil and military no longer regarded her as a puppet, but only regarded her as a kitten with teeth and claws.

The royal lineage and the founding nobles who share honor and disgrace have died, and the prestige of the royal family has been greatly damaged.

Gao Zhaorong, who was hit again, could only put his hope on the wild party, and the remnants of the Restoration, who had been exhausted, hit it off with her under the matchmaking of the female national teacher.

With the intellectual assistance of the remnants of the Restoration, she, the Queen Mother of the Deep Palace, finally had the opportunity to see the overall situation clearly, but unfortunately it was too late.

Daomen and Heng Dynasty joined forces to launch foreign wars and export internal contradictions, and the plan has been pioneered by her. And after the Daomen, the military, and the cabinet reached an agreement, there was no need for the royal family to adjust, and her position was usurped by the agent of the retro party and became a dispensable role.

What the Daomen want is to cooperate with the Heng Dynasty, not the royal family!

After Li Deyu's words were pointed out, Gao Zhaorong realized his stupidity. Her concept is still stuck in the period of Emperor Wu, too overestimating the status of the royal family, without the intervention of the royal family in the past five years, the Heng Dynasty is still running, the royal family does not seem to be indispensable, if all parties cooperate tacitly, she can be completely put aside.

When Empress Dowager Gao was discouraged and wanted to hide in the deep palace, Li Deyu proposed a crazy plan. He claimed that as long as the Queen Mother used the resources in her hands to fully cooperate, he could not only make a gap between Daomen and the Retro Party, regain the right to cooperate, but also reverse the general trend of the world in one fell swoop!

is different from Qi Tongwei's chess body and the title of "Shengtian Banzi" that he got by luck, Li Deyu, the teacher of 800 Guhan, is recognized as "Letting Tianbanzi" in officialdom.

This duke has degraded Qiongya five times in his life, and every time he can turn things around at the end of the road, the demon extermination war launched by Xiao Qingshan comes from his plan.

Compared with the power ambition of Qi Tongwei, this person has lofty ideals and a lofty pattern.

The Heng Dynasty obviously has an invincible army in the world, a political system that has not yet decayed, and the support of the people, but why is it believed by all parties that the edifice will collapse and fall soon?

Li Deyu saw the essence behind it.

Emperor Wu's reform with the slogan of "the mandate of heaven is not enough to fear, and the way of heaven is not enough to fear" was interpreted as a "trip against the sky" because of the emperor collapse incident, so "the Heng Dynasty lost its morality and suffered from heaven's punishment" and "tyrant tyranny, it should be destroyed" became the mainstream view of Yunlu.

The collapse of the concept of the Restoration, and the trend of thought that heaven will win over people, made the original impregnable rule of the Heng Dynasty crumbling.

If it is an Earth Dynasty, this situation is almost a dead end, but Yun Lu is in the world of immortals and demons, and the emperor has two other paths to go in addition to the monarchy.

Because of the dragon vein, the question of whether man will win over heaven or heaven will win over man has been the focus of the Yunlu Dynasty since ancient times.

The First Dynasty of Yunlu originated from the Qin Sect of the ancient martial arts sect, and took the violent road of ruling the country by law and conquering the sky by man. Emperor Zulong claimed to be the supreme humane and the emperor of all ancient people, and he never called himself the "Son of Heaven" in his life.

Different from the experience of the later Han Emperor who won the world in a war, the process of Qin Zong gaining the world can be described as long and arduous. Bullied by the Taoist sect for thousands of years, and there is such a catastrophe as fog, it is not a mandate of heaven, so the monarchs and ministers of the Qin Dynasty unanimously believe that the dynasty comes from the struggle of themselves and their ancestors, and the imperial system comes from force rather than heaven.

As a result, the human emperor of the Yunlu Dynasty was established, and the status of the human emperor was on par with the heavens, or even higher than the sky.

After the death of the second Yun Qin Dynasty, the Yun Han Dynasty learned a lesson, proclaimed itself the Son of Heaven, degraded himself, and cooperated with the Daomen, and finally made the Han dynasty three prosperous and inherited for thousands of years. From then on, the monarch was determined to win the sky, and the monarchy and martial arts became the symbol of the grass-headed king and the short-lived small court that did not have the support of the Daomen, and the monarchy of the heavenly grant of the Taoist gate and the path of harmony became the mainstream.

However, the advent of the Heavenly Demon broke the trajectory of the Son of Heaven's legal system, and hundreds of years later, the Fifth Dynasty, Yunqian Dynasty, which obtained the Heavenly Demon Classics, opened the era of the Hundred Schools.

Although the Qiandai Dynasty touted the Mandate of Heaven on the surface, it actually respected the Mandate of Heaven and stayed away, taking the road of monarchy and people's authority with the people, and its system perfectly avoided the drawbacks of the Immortal Dynasty era and avoided the opposition between the dragon vein and the will of heaven. This practice opened a golden age for Yunlu, and foreign countries came from all over the world to learn the advanced systems of the fifth and sixth dynasties of Yunlu.

It was not until after the four demon tribulations that the Yunling Dynasty of the Seventh Dynasty had no heirs and the loss of the human emperor dragon talisman because the founding empress had no heirs and the human emperor dragon talisman was lost, and the Zhao family, who took over the throne, had to vigorously support the emerging school of Lijia in order to maintain their rule, propagating the rule of filial piety and the three outlines and five constants, and depreciating themselves as the Son of Heaven to obtain the support of Heaven's will, so that the legal system of the Son of Heaven was revived again.

However, the encounter of Emperor Duanwu of the Eighth Dynasty has severely defeated the legal system of the Son of Heaven, and the Yunheng Dynasty of the Ninth Dynasty, which has learned the lessons of the previous dynasty, no longer governs the country with filial piety, but rebuilds the legal system of the emperor granted by the monarch and the people in the golden age.

However, the loss of the dragon talisman makes the legal system of the emperor not very solid, and the Lijia school, the master of the theory of the legal system of the Son of Heaven, has become bigger after thousands of years of development, and the dispute between the concept between the emperor and the emperor has not only not been extinguished, but has intensified.

The contradiction between the two reached its peak when Emperor Wu was in power, and completely erupted when the Restoration shouted the slogan of defying the mandate of heaven.

The Emperor Collapse Incident was interpreted as a curse by the hundred schools of thought headed by the Li family, claiming that this incident represented the end of history and the destruction of the legal system of the human emperor!

What kind of monarchy is granted by force, and what is granted by the monarch and the people, in front of the supreme and omnipotent "heaven", it is all a pseudo-legal system!

obviously occupies an absolute advantage, has the blessing of the dragon vein, and is invincible in the world, but he was once damaged. From top to bottom, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty almost died without a single survivor. What could be more indicative of the legitimacy of the monarchy's providence?

The remnants of the Restoration Party could not get rid of this public opinion offensive, and even most of its members threw themselves into the opposing camp because of this sudden turn of events and disillusionment.

Xiao Qingshan and other leaders of the Restoration designated the Demon Gate as the culprit at the critical moment and launched the Demon Extermination War, although there were multiple considerations, but one of the important purposes was to reverse the Emperor's curse theory of human disaster.

It is a pity that this kind of large-scale war with the strength of the whole country cannot be achieved overnight, and this gives all parties time to work together, and they see through the intentions of the Restoration Party, and take the initiative to join it, ready to sabotage this simple and crude act of throwing the blame.

However, these have long been in Li Deyu's calculations, and it was his purpose to let the mainstream forces of Yunlu join the action. Without the joint endorsement of these forces, the Restoration Party, which had been greatly damaged, had neither the ability nor the prestige to kill the demons with one stone.

……

After the end of the Demon Destroying War that shocked the whole of Yunlu, all parties got what they wanted, the internal contradictions of the Heng Dynasty were also alleviated, and the situation in Yunlu finally stabilized.

Although the plans of Xiao Qingshan, Li Deyu and others fell short at the last moment, the main purpose was also completed for the most part, and the powerful faction led by the four top gate lords was swept away, and the remaining conservative faction was not in harmony with the military, and they were neither able to change the dynasty nor abolish the fruits of the Restoration.

However, even if the Tianjimen giant, which has always had something to do with the will of heaven, was destroyed, and even the emperor collapsed as a conspiracy of the Tianjimen and the four major gates, it still failed to clear the theory of heaven's curse, and the lack of legitimacy of the Restoration led to the disgrace of the Restoration Party, and Yunlu was still shrouded in the fog of the Mandate of Heaven.

Now, the last leader of the Restoration Party is ready to completely complete the step that fell short in the past, and use the human dragon vein to completely destroy those enemies who are willing to do the right thing for heaven!

Didn't the supporters of the Son of Heaven's legal system say that the overwhelming side failed because of the condemnation of heaven for its actions against heaven? Then he will return the favor with the other and prove that the other party's curse is just a joke!

As long as there is an example of Stone Town, it cannot be said that heaven will win over people, because the group of people who obey the heavens have been defeated by the group of people who have gone against the will of heaven!

The sacrifices made by the remnants of the Restoration can be said to have broken the shackles of providence that enveloped Yunlu and shattered the current political correctness of Yunlu.

In the court battle, they were completely defeated, but the collision of ideas involved behind them was won by the Restoration Party. Physically, they have been completely wiped out and reduced to ashes, but their minds can still illuminate the past and the future.
