30. The prosperous era of the Tang Dynasty
The Tang Dynasty is prosperous
Betrayal exists from the beginning.
I don't remember who said this, but the scene can be perfectly presented with this sentence.
There are no eternal friends and enemies, only eternal interests.
When there is a common goal to deal with, even if there was once hostility, you can shake hands and make peace, this is the world, this is the reality.
Bai Li Yu is very smart, so he holds all the evidence that can correct Li Heng for using An Lushan to murder the first emperor to hide from the throne, even if he debates in front of Bai Guan, Bai Li Yu is confident enough that he will not lose.
And Li Heng obviously saw through this, and he would suddenly lose his temper when he had already ascended the throne.
However, Li Heng was the emperor in the end, although he was a novice emperor, he still quickly calmed down: "Yang Zhao, what if you have evidence?" Don't forget that I was once the crown prince and now the emperor, and all your words will be used as dirty water spilled by usurpers to achieve their ends. β
Bai Liyu, who was bitten back, did not stare at Li Heng in disbelief and angrily Never seen such a brazen person, but calmly stated a fact: "The history books are only qualified to be written by victorious people, as long as the emperor is submissive to the law, coupled with the sufficient evidence prepared by the minister, he will naturally believe that the minister is not a chaotic minister and thief." β
Li Heng sneered: "It turns out that you want to be the emperor." β
Bai Liyu shook his head with a calm face: "No, this Tang Dynasty will always belong to the Li family, and the minister's sister can have an heir in her belly, otherwise, the emperor would not have made such an impulsive choice." β
Li Heng was furious: "You actually said that I am a dog!" β
"Your Majesty, this is not the point...... Baili Yu was speechless, he didn't know how to continue, he didn't usually find that Li Heng was so ...... Interesting......
But Li Heng didn't notice his inadvertent cuteness just now, and continued to say angrily: "It's enough, Yang Zhao, you are really stubborn, I gave you so many opportunities, you don't want it, don't blame me for being unkind!" β
As he spoke, Li Heng knocked on the dragon case three times, and then a group of people wearing the clothes of the imperial guards rushed in, obviously not knowing how long they had been in ambush outside, just waiting here for Li Heng to give an order to come down and arrest people.
"Is it possible for the emperor to think that the minister is really here alone this time......" Bai Liyu shook his head and snapped his fingers, and then the group of soldiers who had fought with him before rushed in like this, the number of people was about the same as the imperial guards, but there were also footsteps one after another, indicating that there were still large troops coming.
"Exterminate the rebels and thieves!" The Imperial Guards roared.
"Arrest the traitor who plotted to kill the emperor!" The soldiers also roared.
The two-faced people shouted slogans and started a fight, in fact, this is the last thing Bai Liyu wants to see.
Although Baili Yu is a general, he hates war the most.
It is still heart-wrenching to fight Tibet, and now facing the situation of his own people beating his own people, Baili Yu is even more heart-wrenching.
They are all the people of the Tang Dynasty, why should you die because of this kind of civil war.
But none of them will take the initiative to stop, this is a life-and-death battle.
Bai Li Yu couldn't bear to frown, and he yelled: "Stop!" β
Sure enough, both parties stopped because of his words, and then, Bai Liyu walked step by step towards Li Heng who was sitting on the dragon chair.
There was a murderous aura in Bai Liyu's eyes, and that kind of killing intent made Li Heng involuntarily take a step back, but then Li Heng also found that his weakness was very embarrassing and he took a step forward, and because of this extra step, the distance between the faces of the two people became only a palm.
Li Heng and Bai Li Yu could feel each other's breathing, and the scorching heat reminded Li Heng of the unsuccessful intimacy that night.
Li Heng bit his lower lip, and the emotion in his eyes was stubbornness that Bai Liyu didn't understand, because Bai Liyu could only see the tears that weren't so clear.
Bai Li Yu raised a right hand, and gently wiped away the scarce tears that flowed from the corners of Li Heng's eyes when the imperial guards were nervously trying to rush up, and Bai Li Yu asked softly: "You cried, did you cry when you decided to kill the first emperor?" β
Bai Liyu's questioning suddenly made all the grievances that Li Heng had left in his heart burst out, and he almost vented hoarsely: "His beloved concubine is pregnant, he wants me to give up the position of prince, he doesn't treat me as a son, how can I treat him as a father!" β
The soldiers and imperial guards brought by Baili Yu were all stunned by Li Heng's words - they didn't expect that the first emperor was really killed by the saint today.
"Is the throne that important?" Bai Li Yu stared at Li Heng's face, obviously he was already the father of the child, but this face was still so young and good-looking, and his eyes were slightly red and stubborn, more like a young teenager, and it was such a harmless teenager who did earth-shattering things.
"That's what belongs to me, why should someone else take it!" Li Heng tilted his head slightly, allowing Bai Liyu's hand to pull a certain distance from his face.
Bai Liyu was still puzzled and asked the question in his heart: "What can you do if you become an emperor?" You are the prince above 10,000 people under one person, and you can't enjoy endless glory and wealth, even if you can't be the emperor, you won't suffer. β
Li Heng was stunned by Baili Yu's naΓ―ve thoughts, and sneered: "Ridiculous, just like you said, the winner is the king, and the loser is the villain, if I don't have the throne, I can only be a poor waste prince, and the status of the waste prince is not even as good as an unfavored prince!" I don't want to be trampled on! And...... My father is getting older and more reluctant to take care of the affairs of the court, what about the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty, no dynasty is eternal, even if I will not make the Tang Dynasty prosperous, at least I will not let the Tang Dynasty decline. β
Bai Liyu found out for the first time that he never seemed to understand Li Heng.
Li Heng in his heart is a vicious person who will do whatever it takes to achieve his goals, but he has never thought about his situation from his point of view.
He believed in Li Heng's talent and wisdom.
People will always be emotional and even make impulsive decisions, so after listening to Li Heng's words, Bai Liyu suddenly figured out one thing.
So, he forcefully let Li Heng face him, and forcibly looked at each other, and in Li Heng's slightly displeased eyes, he said seriously: "I can go to guard the border pass for you and guard the land of the Tang Dynasty for you." β
ββ¦β¦ What did you say? I heard you right! Li Heng's eyes widened in disbelief, obviously not understanding why Bai Liyu suddenly changed his mind.
Bai Li Yu shook his head and continued: "And you, too, want to be a good emperor who works hard. β
Li Heng knew that Baili Yu was not joking, although he didn't know why this general who was planning to rebel suddenly changed his attention, but Li Heng still believed him, the situation at this time was only a matter of time before Bai Liyu won a big victory, and he suddenly chose to let go, which was an opportunity that Li Heng had to seize, so he nodded and said seriously: "Okay, I promise you." β
Bai Liyu noticed that Li Heng's eyes were not perfunctory, thought for a while, and continued: "Remember your promise, if I find out that you are as arrogant and lascivious as the first emperor, and listen to the slander of the ministers, I will lead the army of the border pass to kill you and take your head, and at that time, I will not be so soft as this time." β
Then, Bai Liyu let go of the hand that was pinching Li Heng's chin, turned around and walked out of the door, and then said to a group of sluggish soldiers: "Retreat!" β
The thrilling beginning of a rebellion ended in a hurry.
It is said that the princes of Zhou Youwang Fenghuo Opera, what are these two of, using rebellion to test the loyalty and sincerity of their group of younger brothers? What's going on!
And at this time, the little eunuch who was sent by Li Heng to pass on the imperial medicine to Concubine Yang ran back in a hurry, and shouted happily: "Niangniang is born, she is a princess!" Mother and daughter are safe! β
Surprised, but Li Heng, who was relieved by the words of the little eunuch, shook the jade seal in his hand and scolded: "Yang Zhao, you bastard!" You didn't just sleep with me! How do you dare to threaten me! You're the biggest servant! β
Bai Liyu, who had already walked away, clearly captured this sentence, and the face that was paralyzed because of illness outlined a somewhat scary smile, but at least he smiled.
A rebellion really ended in this way.
The truth of the matter Li Heng and Baili Yu are tacit, but this matter really needs a suitable person to take the blame, and the best player to carry the blame is Li Linfu, who was guarded with Leng Hu.
The next day, Li Heng announced to the world the holy decree, the content of which was roughly that Li Linfu cooperated with An Lushan to rebel, and the reason why An Lushan was so impulsive and directly assassinated was because he was poisoned by Leng Hu. An Lushan was also used by Li Linfu, and Leng Huqi was a spy planted by Li Linfu next to Li Heng, and his role in this conspiracy was to falsely accuse Li Heng of the current saint as perjury after An Lushan's death, so as to make the ministers feel that the emperor was a vicious person who murdered his own father for power, so as to force the current saint to abdicate.
And at this time, Li Linfu, a powerful minister with many henchmen, could set up the child in the womb of Concubine Yang as the emperor at this time, so that he could bring the Son of Heaven to order the princes. Fortunately, the general Yang Zhao discovered Li Linfu's conspiracy, and helped the current saint to break this crisis, and was named the general king by the current saint, leading 200,000 troops to garrison the border pass and guard the peace of our Tang land.
And Concubine Yang was named the queen mother, and the princess who had just given birth was named the princess who protected the country.
