Chapter 231: Woman, Why Are You So Domineering?

In the autumn of October, in the autumn wind of sprinkling hunting, Emperor Li Dan made a very capable decision, which was really a good thing for the development of the Tang Dynasty.

He drastically eradicated idle officials and mediocre and incompetent opportunists, and issued an order to remove all oblique officials!

The so-called "oblique official" is actually a title that orthodox officials despise him.

The appointment certificate of such an official is obliquely sealed, and it is handed over to the Zhongshu Province for appointment from the left side door. Unlike the yellow paper of ordinary officials, the words on the paper of this type of official are written with ink and pen. In this way, it is an "oblique sealing official".

This is actually a new thing that inadvertently grew during the reign of Zhongzong Li Xian!

At that time, represented by the court nobles such as Empress Wei, Princess Anle, Princess Taiping, and Shangguan Wan'er, no matter what kind of background, how talented, slaves or merchants, as long as they handed over about 300,000 yuan to the powerful nobles of the court, they could buy official positions sealed by the emperor himself. Although they are really idle officials who don't do practical things, in fact, they are idle officials with good names, but in the end, they are appointed by the emperor himself, which still attracts a lot of people to be tired of this and buy officials!

Now Li Dan suddenly issued an order to dismiss all these oblique officials, which can be described as a stone that provoked a thousand layers of Lang!

Not to mention those oblique officials, first of all, Princess Taiping will be in chaos here!

You must know that Taiping was also a representative of the powerful court ladies in the Zhongzong period, and at present, some of these oblique officials were personally promoted by her, and they were for her own people. And the emperor suddenly made such a will, wouldn't this greatly weaken her power and dissipate her people's hearts?

Guarding the dim lights, Taiping tossed and turned against the cold moon and night waves, and it was difficult to scream. She patiently suppressed the turmoil, and thought quietly for a long time, and gradually sorted out a clue in her scattered mind, and she suddenly realized that there was no eternal enemy in the strange political turmoil and the curtain of the eventual situation...... In the matter of obliquely sealing the official right now, the crown prince Li Longji can help her!

Just as she needs to carefully hold on to her original power from being disintegrated and constantly look for opportunities to expand new forces, Li Longji also needs to continue to inject fresh blood into her own forces.

Now, Li Dan's original well-intentioned holy decree made Taiping and Longji's eyes shine! The two of them are the same, and they will inevitably feel that this is a good opportunity to stabilize the old department and win people's hearts!

If you stand up and speak for the oblique officials within the four seas at this time, then people's hearts will naturally turn to themselves. Yu Taiping, in addition to consolidating the hearts of the people who were already his own, also took advantage of the situation to gather the hearts of the officials appointed by Empress Wei, Shangguan Wan'er and others at that time; And Prince LONGi is a good opportunity to show his broad-mindedness and integrate the hearts of people from all over the world!

If Taiping takes this step, raises LONGi, arouses LONGi's resonance and ignites LONGi's ambitions, he will definitely accept it happily, and the two of them will definitely hit it off again .......

Without the slightest delay, at the juncture when the emperor's edict that had been drawn up was about to be officially issued and the outside world had already spread the news, Taiping once again took the initiative to visit the crown prince Li Longji in the East Palace.

In the confrontation between the two people in the past, the increasingly obvious tearing of the skin has erased the unbearable and thin feelings that remain in the bottom of their hearts. This face-to-face has somewhat spawned Ruoxu's embarrassment.

In fact, today's political situation is changing rapidly, just as Taiping does not dare to slack off, Longi is also staring at the emperor's wind direction with his eyes wide open. Li Dan ordered the dismissal of the oblique official, and he, the prince who supervised the country, knew even more, so he took the initiative to come to the door for Taiping, which was really entrusted, for what his intentions were, and he knew it clearly in his heart.

There is already a tacit understanding between the two, that is, the-for-tat pressure cannot be dissolved. Longji quietly greeted Taiping all the way into the inner hall, and immediately raised his hand to retreat from the palace people on both sides.

Taiping still didn't see any sparseness in his place, and without waiting for him to say hello, he had already chosen a position with his back against the peony embroidery screen and sat down by himself.

Longji fell down in the position where she was facing each other, and looked at her through the curling incense, this beautiful face was a peony full of blooming branches, swaggering and glamorous, but the inside was actually evil and ruthless, soaked in venom, a clear poppy with blood!

His heart was suddenly like a galloping horse, and the cascading emotions surged, and he was immediately suppressed by his best efforts, and he hooked his lips and smiled: "Yo, my aunt has this leisure to come to see her nephew!" ”

Between the words and sentences of honorific titles for elders, I couldn't hear the due humility at all, and I was scornful with contempt. Taiping knew his deliberate sarcasm, raised his eyelids, pouted lazy, and said slowly: "Tsk, don't talk to me so weirdly, okay?" "Rigidity and softness are moderate, like playfulness and positive color.

Longji smiled again, then sighed and collected the playfulness on his lips, leaned forward slightly towards her, and his burning eyes fell on her beautiful eyebrows: "Okay, what else are you going to do besides sprinkling, huh?" Raised eyebrows, cramped and sarcastic.

Taiping knew that he was alluding to what happened last time, if she hadn't been forced by their father and son to retreat and have no way to retreat, how could she have an idea to swing the momentum of Reilly? In hindsight, it was really a philistine woman's trick!

She tacitly understood it, and she didn't shy away from it, her wonderful eyes fluctuated slowly, and she looked at him: "Yes, I just know how to spill." "The bite is heavy" is the two words", that is, he exhaled a breath of humor, his lips were stained, and his voice was charming, "Then do you want me to show you another one next time?" ”

This tends to be feminine and ghostly, which makes Longji tremble defenselessly! He couldn't stand Taiping's scoundrel and helpless appearance anymore, so he left her and sat back in his place: "Taiping, Taiping, look at what you have become now!" The voice was a little angry, and it was raised all of a sudden, but finally it was no longer yin and yang, but returned to normal, "You have made the court into a miasma, and you have repeatedly made those measures that are not consistent with your identity and your temperament, is it possible that in your heart, in addition to power and fear, there is no longer a point of national righteousness?" In fact, when he asked like this, he was also a little weak in his heart, and subconsciously asked himself, but there was no answer, he didn't know.

Taiping's emotions were not mobilized at all: "I'm not here to quarrel with you today." His voice was steady, his face was full of fun, and he didn't go around with him, but cut to the point, "Your chance has come!" The end of the note sank.

Longji knew it in his heart, but he pretended to be confused: "What chance?" ”

Taiping didn't poke his desire to cover up, rolled his eyes, and said succinctly: "Don't you want to win the hearts of officials?" His gaze was fixed on his eyes, word by word, "Now that the emperor has decreed the removal of the oblique officials, you are the crown prince of the prison country, and your words are very important." If you are willing to stand up and speak for them, they will surely accept your affection! He sighed.

Hearing these words, Longji was funny in his heart, that is, he really laughed, and the sound wave said: "I will also receive your love for Princess Taiping!" After hooking his lips, he sighed and said, "You pulled them up in the first place, and now you are naturally eager to maintain them, aren't you?" It is precisely because of this relationship that in order to avoid suspicion, she is not good at taking care of everything for them, so she found him, the prince, and planned to work with him on this matter.

The words are good, but mutually beneficial, Taiping is sure that LONGi will not refuse. With this level of certainty, she is not in a hurry at all. didn't answer, just got up and paced to his side: "Whatever you want." With a faint word, he turned around and left.

Longji's eyebrows gathered, and he raised his hand to pull her back!

This sudden force made Taiping frightened, and his body was unstable, and he was about to fall into Longi's arms! But at the most critical moment, she held up the table.

There is still a straightforward and imminent distance between the two people, and the atmosphere between the eyes is extremely subtle.

Longji's palm that restrained Taiping Rou did not relax a little, the force was tight, and with the ups and downs of his heart, he continued to exert and emphasize: "Are you so sure that I will help you?" With a faint sentence, he pulled her in front of him again, his eyes met, and his eyes were hidden in the extremes of glaciers and fire, "Woman, why are you so domineering, huh?" "Determined, tend to ask through gritted teeth.

Taiping Jue, if it weren't for the crowded Daming Palace at this moment, the man in front of him would definitely suddenly turn into a beast and tear himself apart and eat it!

Her crisp breasts rose and fell due to the rapid breathing, and her face was still the same strong as before: "I still say that." Slightly bowed, condensed frosty eyes, and cramped word by word, "Whatever, whatever, you!" With a fierce wave of his sleeves, he brushed off Longji's restraints, no longer looked at him, turned around and left the tense inner sanctum.

Longji's palm suddenly emptied, and the whole person felt as if he had been emptied of his qi and blood at this moment. He was suddenly a little depressed, and he felt powerless leaning on the screen of the big peony behind him, but strangely, the heart and God clearly did not have the slightest fluctuation of thoughts, and the whole person was as clear as a mirror, and seemed to be transparent ...... inside and outside.

Longji did not come forward directly, but arranged for someone close to him to go up to his father Li Dan, and the oblique sealing of the official could never be dismissed!

That means, these loose officials are all entitlements of the first emperor, and today's removal is tantamount to accusing the first emperor of his mistakes; And the oblique feudal officials are also a decent person who paid tribute to the country and bought silver, and it is inevitable that the dismissal at this time will inevitably lose the hearts of the people; Moreover, after the dismissal of the oblique feudal officials, the idlers scattered everywhere will inevitably have resentment, and under the resentment, they will go around preaching the emperor's untrustworthiness, and the public anger will lose the hearts of the people within the four seas, and the emperor's country is afraid that it will not be stable!

Not only the prince's side, but also the courtiers on Princess Taiping's side also stood up to dissuade them like this.

There are probably two largest forces in this court, one is the prince and the other is the princess Taiping. The two factions joined forces and agreed on the same opinion, which was tantamount to speaking the hearts of all the courtiers.

In this way, the first emperor Li Dan had his own ideas, and he had to take into account the opinions of his courtiers, so he had to sigh and stop this resolution!

In this way, the emperor really outweighs the loss!

These oblique officials all knew that they were able to keep their official positions because of the merits of Princess Taiping and the crown prince. They only miss the love of Princess Taiping and the crown prince in their hearts, although the emperor did not officially issue a will to remove them in the end, but they still do not accept the emperor's love.

In this way, what was originally an official reform that benefited the country and the people has now become a complete power calculation because of the fighting method between the prince and the princess!

Family harmony is prosperous, Princess Taiping and Prince Li Longji have been fighting so carelessly for days, not to mention their respective gains and losses, in the final analysis, in fact, the big loss is still this Tang Dynasty!
