Chapter 161: Expanding Forces-Seeking the Wind and Seeking the Situation
And Zheng'er didn't hesitate for too long, and took over the previous words with a fixed opening of his eyes: "Do you still remember when you were in Fangzhou, you once hugged your concubine emotionally on a moonlit and starry night, and made those fiery vows to your concubine?" Although her voice was soft, the accumulation of precipitation in her echoed her fierceness, so that no one could easily ignore such a fire-like and charcoal-swallowing fierceness.
"Remember, how can you not remember!" In this way, it was obvious that Wei Zheng's emotions were easily infected. He suddenly felt that his body was like a fire, and he raised his hand to hold a pair of jade hands that were slightly cool from Zheng'er, and looked at her tenacious and affectionate eyebrows and eyes, and his heart was already full of emotion, "I said that once there is a day to turn over in the future, I will let the queen live the best life, and let the queen live in the world without any restrictions as she wants!" ”
It was the hardest and most difficult time between them, but it was also the most tenacious and beautiful time! The star of Fangzhou, the month of Fangzhou, the past that Fangzhou does not want to erase and cannot erase, and the burning oaths that he made when he hugged her one after another, full of longing and true touching!
He remembers, of course he will. And he will not forget, and will definitely fulfill!
Miao Miao's breeze filled the open and somewhat flashy and empty surroundings, the candle flame jumped, and the faint shadow suddenly rushed into her bright and rich eyes.
Wei Zheng looked at her husband steadily, and the opening and closing of the fragrant sandalwood lips outlined a faint and tenacious perseverance: "Does this oath still count today?" "The question is straightforward and simple, not muddy.
The strength of the hands holding the zither suddenly tightened, and when he looked at her, the bright starry eyes were full of undoubtedness: "Of course it counts!" Such a simple reply is a powerful four words.
From the fingertips came the wisps of moist temperature, and the scorching warmth ran down the scalding and shaky heart. Ten fingers connected to her heart, Wei Zheng's heart was moved, and she always rationally understood what she wanted: "Your Majesty trusts me? She fixed her gaze on him, and it didn't leave.
"Of course!" The two words are truncated, and it is obvious that there is such a sentence again. At this time, he looked at her, he was silent, he pressed his thoughts, and began to try very seriously to peek into some of the inner scheming from the depths of her eyes, and it seemed natural that all of a sudden, he suddenly understood what she meant......
Yes, there is no available person, but there is no available person, but I don't know that this available person is by my side!
The situation faced by Zhongzong Li Xian today is actually very similar to the situation faced by Gaozong Li Zhi back then! I think that when Gaozong Li Zhi ascended the throne in the early years of Yonghui, he was faced with a general situation where the lord was weak and the ministers were strong, and in the early years of Yonghui, the court was mostly controlled by powerful ministers, so that when hundreds of officials went to court, thousands of horses did not dare to do things. How did Li Zhi do it at that time?
Yes, Gojong was with the utmost courage and almost fanatical persistence, and insisted on pushing his empress Wu to the back seat. This move seems to be only aimed at the Empress Wu, but in fact, the reason why Gaozong did not give in and insisted stubbornly back then was not all because of his love for the Empress Wu!
For Gaozong, the abolition of Wang Liwu is to take back the real power of an emperor and really show it in front of his courtiers with a tough attitude, which is nothing more than a silent and invisible deterrence! After that, Gaozong allowed Empress Wu to listen to the government, and continued to strengthen the real power of Empress Wu in the future, and even if Gaozong and Empress Wu were called the Emperor and Queen of Heaven and the Two Saints after Xu Xu......
Now Li Xian has to step on an old road that his father and emperor have walked, since he has no henchmen to support, then he will strengthen the power of his queen!
Just like Gaozong did to Empress Wu at the beginning, Empress Wei was allowed to listen to politics and participate in court affairs. The queen and I are the same, and the strengthening of the queen's power means that his own power is also strengthening!
And Wei Zheng quietly mentioned the old matter to Li Xian, and asked Li Xian if he believed her, which was also urging him to act like this......
Just as Empress Wu can climb to the top of politics step by step and eventually become the emperor, Empress Wei's rise is also due to the current situation and inexplicable luck!
Li Xian is not a fool, he is so thoughtful and has his own plan.
While strengthening the power of the queen, he also promoted a cadre of bureaucrats in the prince's mansion in Chang'an, even if they were scattered, they could also choose one or two. And he selected monks, sorcerers, and monks and mages, listened to the recitals, and allowed them to participate in politics.
He is completely imitating the methods used by Gaozong and Empress Wu, strengthening the rights of his wife, gathering the scattered old tribes and undesirable people, and looking for the miracle of the Mandate of Heaven from the monks and mages of the priests, and trying to control the people from the thought!
And at the same time that this step by step was carried out steadily, he and Empress Wei began to make continuous measures, acting solemnly and affirming the old exploits of his mother Emperor Wu, looking for opportunities to show filial piety, and downplaying Shenlong Zheng. Change......
Where there are people, there must be scheming, and the palace and the inside and outside of the royal palace happen to be the place where the scheming and scheming of all dynasties are the strongest!
Even if the Wu Zhou Dynasty that was cut off in Hengzhong, even if Emperor Wu has passed away and the actual control of this beautiful empire has been retransmitted back to the hands of the Li royal family, those who cannot escape have always been fateful.
Bloodline is the original sin, an invisible bond that has been rigidly tied to this struggle for power since birth! Conspiracy and calculation, power struggle and power grabbing have never been far away, the difference is only a change of situation, some personnel, and that's it!
The incense in the incense pod on one side is burning well, and the clouds and mist weave a large hazy trance. The tea smoke in the cup was also curling, and in the atmosphere of swallowing clouds and mist, Longji dropped the white child in his hand.
The crisp sound of "ding" is like a broken flower that cracks after a waterfall falls from mid-air and hits a rock. He asked.
Taiping Qingliang Jade fingered a black jade chess piece in his hand, only raised his eyes to look at Longji, heard him ask, and was not in a hurry to fall: "Because although you play chess with me, you are clearly absent-minded and perfunctory, but it is better not to play." After finishing speaking, she simply put down the chess piece in her hand, raised it softly, and suddenly "banged" to mess up the chessboard in front of her.
This move is not perverse! Longji hooked his lips and looked at her and smiled brightly: "You are clearly as absent-minded as me, and you will talk about me first?" ”
Raising his eyes, Taiping also smiled: "Since we don't have the heart to play chess, why bother with each other!" ”
The two of them were so open and honest with each other, and after speaking, she lowered her soft eyes, called the maid on the side to clean up the chess game, and then ordered all the people in the house to retreat.
Suddenly, there were only two people left in the room, Taiping and Longji, and in the spring light, she glanced at him, and her hibiscus-like face dissolved into a trace of microwave: "Now you can say, what did you come to me for." "It's not a question, I don't need to say more.
Longji was not surprised by Taiping's attitude, but he was not in a hurry to reply when he heard her like this: "Don't you know? Instead, he asked rhetorically.
Yes, what did he come to her for, how could she not know? At that time, his father Li Dan and Taiping were actually grasshoppers tied together, and Li Longji, Wan'er, etc., it can be said that they are really on the same boat, and they have to understand the movements of Zhongzong.
Sure enough, Taiping understood, so he didn't force Longji to say it first, he only raised his eyes and smiled at him, without words, and the feeling was already tacit.
Taiping and Longji saw Li Xian's intentions, which of the major events that Li Xian did after he ascended the throne was not familiar? They also came from the era of Emperor Wu, especially Li Dan, who also knew a lot about the rules of affairs during the Gaozong period, so where could they not see that Li Xian's move was clearly imitating Gaozong and Emperor Wu? Now that we understand, it is needless to say what the real intentions and connotations of this move will be!
As the son of Li Dan, Li Longji, the king of Linzi, has never given up thinking more about Li Dan from beginning to end, and even with his unique and bold actions and tension for things in this year, he is often the first to make moves after smelling any strange wind and grass! He is dedicated to his father's plans, and his ambitions go far beyond becoming the son of the Prime Minister of Anguo......
And now they are facing the same situation, and it is not just a matter of so-called ambition! If they don't make any way to deal with it, then seeing the emperor's foundation and power getting bigger and bigger, then the final result waiting for them is only a "death" word!
"Then, after all, he is the monarch of the Tang Dynasty!" Xu was silent for a moment, and Taiping looked at the tea soup in the cup as if he had inadvertently glanced at it, and the sentences that came out were a little helpless and confused. It can be seen that she is also struggling in her heart.
"So what?" Longji hooked his lips and smiled, but his expression did not change excessively.
At this moment, Taiping raised his eyes again, and through the light smoke curtain, he saw Longji's face that seemed to be smiling, uninhibited and disdainful. Her heart sank, yes, so what, if she was bound by Li Xian because she was determined that Li Xian was the emperor of the current empire, then the scheming that has been there all the time over the years, and the scheming calculations that have been burning in her heart all the time, will really not need to be busy! But they didn't, they were still calculating their calculations and laying out what was due. Therefore, it is obvious that they do not have physical and mental constraints because of the limitations of an emperor's identity and a monarch's minister.
"You must already have a plan in mind, don't you?" In the face of Longi's frankness, Taiping suddenly felt guilty for his hypocrisy. She doesn't dare to admit her inner desires like him, or rather, she is always as good at **** as her name suggests.
Longji nodded, his star-like gaze piercing through the thick haze, thus reaching all the way to the depths of his heart......
He has an idea, and if this idea is missing Taiping, it is absolutely impossible.
He knows that the power of Taiping is rising day by day, and the foundation is becoming deeper and deeper, and it is not an exaggeration to say that she is highly meritorious and rich enough to rival the country! Because he knows his father Li Dan very well, what Taiping has is actually the same as what Li Dan is facing.
So he instigated Taiping to help, and let Taiping send his subordinates to go around in circles and confront Zhongzong Li Xian! Whatever policies the emperor pursued, he made decisions that were contrary to those policies; Whatever policy the emperor advocated, he vigorously opposed it and would never conform to its promulgation!
It's just that the situation in Taiping is the same as Li Dan, and she is the first dazzling star on the political stage of the Tang Dynasty, and she also needs to be guarded against, even if she pretends to be an ostrich and has a low profile, it is not enough, but not to mention such a big thorn openly contradicting the emperor?
So even though she understood Longi's intentions, she didn't speak. It's just that she can't really sit idly by and ignore it, after all, she has been involved from the beginning, and she can't escape.
"I know your concerns." I didn't want Long Ji to open his mouth again, and when Taiping was suddenly startled, he continued with a deep gaze and a slight tone, "However, I still need your help." ”
A curtain of wind passed through the room, and the tea soup that had been cooled in the flirtatious cup regained churning ripples, and it seemed as if it was still boiling at a glance......
