Chapter 56 The Central Plains Night is dark

However, the night of the Central Plains is completely different from that of the Khitan, and the boundless sky is pitch black. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

Looking into the distance, although the Xuanzheng Hall of Emperor Tang Ai was brilliant in the past, today, I saw that the candle was like a firefly, flickering and fainting, looming.

Although the night was late, the spirited mourning emperor Li Ji did not have a trace of sleep. He couldn't understand how the ancestral foundation of the country, which had been established for more than 200 years, suddenly fell into the hands of me, a loser?

He jumped off the dragon chair in a fit of rage, put his hands behind his back, and paced incessantly, looking very restless. After a while, Emperor Wai strode back to the dragon chair with his hands behind his back.

He's anxious, he's hesitating, he's restless, he's afraid. had no choice but to face Liu Yunzhang and lose his temper.

He shouted hysterically: "Liu Yunzhang, you are a Hanlin scholar, you can talk to me, why are the battles between these feudal towns, courtiers, eunuchs, and relatives intensifying and endless?"

Liu Yunzhang stood tremblingly and hurriedly stepped forward.

"Wechen is here".

"What exactly do they want to do"???

Seeing that Emperor Mourning Li Ji was furious, Liu Yunzhang immediately knelt at the feet of Emperor Mourning.

"Wechen, Wechen really dare not say anything."

"Old Aiqing, forgive you for your innocence, but it doesn't hurt to say it." Emperor Wai almost begged this old minister.

Liu Yunzhang secretly raised his eyebrows, a little timid.

Emperor Mourning Li Yan looked extremely impatient, and his saliva almost splashed on Liu Yunzhang's gray beard.

"Old Aiqing, now that it's over, don't sell it, talk to me and listen to it!" There was a cry in the mourning emperor's voice.

Liu Yunzhang seemed to be reciting Chinese culture, and it was like chanting poetry, rhyming with rhyme, trembling and whispering.

"His Majesty the Emperor, from time to time, the court has been in high esteem, the important ministers cherish their power and do not want to speak, and the little officials dare not speak for fear of death. Those who sacrifice their lives and forget their deaths are often officials who risk death to admonish them, trying to ask His Majesty to come to his senses."

When Emperor Tang Ai heard Liu Yunzhang's words, his eyes immediately lit up, and he seemed to see a glimmer of hope from the slimness.

"Old Aiqing, you go on." Emperor Wai shook his hand and motioned for Liu Yunzhang to continue.

"Throughout the ages, emperors have taken imperial history as their eyes and ears, and the prime minister as their humerus. If the femoral humerus is wasted, it cannot be used, and the ears and eyes cannot be cleared. Today, His Majesty has abolished the royal service, plugged his ears and eyes, stopped admonishment, and sinned good ministers. wants to make Qiankun dumb, and the eight directions are speechless. What else do you have to say, minister?"

"Old Aiqing, I know it's wrong."

"After a thousand years of fear, Your Majesty will be infamy."

"Old Aiqing, I'm out of order now, I don't know what to do? Tell me what should I do?"

"According to Wei Chen's opinion, the biggest danger for the imperial court at the moment is the two forces. One is the heavenly khan Yelu Abaoji in the north, and the other is Zhu Quanzhong, a separatist force in the Central Plains."

"Yuguan in the north, one husband should be the pass, in my opinion, the biggest disaster is not Yelu Abaoji, but he Zhu San. Lao Aiqing, you tell me, is there no way to control this Zhu Quanzhong?"

"Your Majesty, Weichen thinks it's too late. This Zhu Quanzhong is in power in his army, and his wings are gradually growing, forcing Emperor Zhaozong to move the capital to Luoyang, and plotting to kill him, doesn't His Majesty know about his wolf ambitions?"

"Didn't he try his best to keep me sitting on the dragon chair, does he also have a heart of disobedience?"

"Emperor Qi, Zhu Quanzhong is playing a trick of transferring flowers and trees."

"What? How to transfer flowers and graft trees"? Emperor Mourning Li Ji asked again and again.

"According to the opinion of Wei Chen, the division of the feudal town must be under the guise of 'respecting the king' and coercing the Son of Heaven to order the princes."

"What? He dares"!

"Historically, there are countless examples of this, and there is nothing that dares or does not dare, it just depends on the timing."

"No wonder he killed my father and several brothers, but tried his best to keep me sitting on the dragon chair."

Zhu San was cunning and deceitful, and participated in the Huangchao Uprising in his early years, and later joined forces with Li Keyong, the envoy of Tang Hedong, to suppress the Huangchao Rebellion. In just one year, he climbed to the throne of the Xuanwu Festival envoy, and now he has expanded his power externally, initially unified the Yellow River Valley, and became the largest separatist force in the imperial court."

"In this way, the next target is the widow."

"Your Majesty thinks that a small Xuanwu Festival envoy can fill his Zhu San's greed?"

"Old Aiqing, you mean, he is waiting for the opportunity"?

"I hope the emperor will make plans early to guard against this Zhu San."

"The country is ruined, the day is not safe, I don't know how many days I can live"? Mourn the emperor and wipe his tears.

"Please forgive the courage of the ministers, the ministers still have this music."

"Old Aiqing, what else do you have to say"?

"Your Majesty, the country has nine breaks, I don't know if Your Majesty ever knows"?

"Then speak quickly and listen to me"! Li Ji couldn't wait.

"The war is continuous, and the beacons are constantly burning. This one is also broken;

"The barbarians multiply, the north rises. This two breaks also;

"The powerful are extravagant, and they deceive the king. These three breaks also;

"The heroes are arrogant, and the generals are not in court. These four breaks also;

"There are many Buddhist temples and temples. These five are also broken;

"Officials are corrupt and take bribes. These six breaks are also ......"

Emperor Wai flicked his sleeves weakly and covered his ears.

"Say no more! Say no more"!

"It's not that the old minister likes to say, the old minister has to do it."

"Old Aiqing, it's too late to say anything! It's late! Emperor Wai listened, listened, beads of sweat ran down his cheeks and neck. His face was so ugly that it turned from red to blue, from blue to white, and finally to gray and white, like a chameleon.

Liu Yunzhang continued: "Today, the common people are wailing on the road, but no one cares. Your Majesty's left and right, although they are all nine-foot men, they are indeed wise to protect themselves. The decline of the current imperial court has caused this, and everyone in the world knows it, but His Majesty does not know it.

Emperor Wai cried: "Old Aiqing, why didn't you say these heartfelt words earlier?"

"The minister risked death today, although he died nine times in his life, but with the minister's meager body, if he saved all the people from fire and water, although the minister went to death, it was like being reborn."

"Old Aiqing, it's too late to say anything! It's all late"! After that, Emperor Wai beat his chest, sat on the dragon chair with his ass, and let go of his throat......

Let's talk about this Zhu Quanzhong, he was originally the envoy of the Tang Xuanwu Festival, forcing Emperor Wai to give up the position of the Son of Heaven, so that the stormy Tang Dynasty was completely destroyed, and he was called Liang Taizu in the historical records.

On this day, the wizard prayed to Zhu Quanzhong.

"General Yu, the northwest long star is in the sky, sweeping too little, Wenchang, the emperor's seat Zhusu (xiu)".

"Oh, so the military is plotting to usurp the dynasty, and we still need to wait for the opportunity"?

The wizard hesitated, not daring to say anything.

"This ......"

Zhu Quanzhong said: "Master, it doesn't hurt to say it."

Only then did the wizard swallow and say: "General, see you on the demon star, I'm afraid it's unlucky!"

"Then ask the wizard to turn evil into good fortune and help the general, and after the matter is completed, you will be guaranteed to enjoy the glory of the world!"

"General, I look at the heavenly phenomena, the monarchs and ministers are all in calamity, and it is advisable to punish and kill in response to the changes in the sky."

When Liu Can heard the wizard's words, he immediately handed Zhu Quanzhong an excerpt.

"General, a list of tortures has been drawn up."

"Hurry up". Zhu Quanzhong couldn't wait to say.
