089 Lü Buwei's defeat, the power returned to balance
The next day, Li Liang left the happy nest very early and went back to attend the court meeting.
Under normal circumstances, a military attache like him who defends the city has no possibility of participating in the morning meeting at all, and Li Liang's other identity is Taifu, and he is the only national teacher in the history of Great Qin so far.
And now that the prince is still an adult, no one can stop and discuss whether he is a prince or a national teacher attending the court meeting, and Li Liang just re-aggravates the identity of the national teacher and participates in the government politics.
Teng Yi and Jing Jun were going to work at the Duqi Military Bureau, so they rushed from the National Teacher Palace to the Inner Palace together.
As soon as they entered the palace gate, brothers Chang Pingjun and Chang Wenjun intercepted Li Liang and walked to the side to talk.
The two were surprised and delighted, apparently knowing that Changpingjun had been selected as a candidate for Prime Minister Zuo under his suggestion.
After everyone dismounted, Changping Jun smiled bitterly: "I don't know whether to be grateful to you or to beat you, the prince came to me late last night to talk, saying that you recommended me to represent Xu Xiang." Alas, why don't you do it yourself? If you are willing to be the left minister, all of us will be convinced. ”
Chang Wenjun said a little skeptically: "If the eldest brother makes a mess of things, it will become a blessing and a curse." ”
Teng Yi said with a smile: "I really can't imagine that these two boys are usually not afraid of the sky and the earth, but now they are afraid of being promoted to the official wealth, which is really laughing at others." ”
Jing Jun said with a smile: "With the prince and us supporting your waist behind your back, if it really doesn't work, you can fight back to your original shape, what's the big deal!" ”
Changping Jun said angrily: "It's easy for you to say, Lu Buwei is now in power. Everyone tends to be inflammatory, competing to pat and snort and speak. National teacher, you yourself hid aside, but taught me to go against him. Will I have a happy life in the future? ”
Li Liang put his arm around his shoulders and said lightly: "The heavens will descend on the Si people, and they must first suffer their minds, don't worry!" With Li Si in the back to give you some ideas, and Lu Buwei has no Mo Ao, what are you afraid of him? Come! It's time for us to go in. ”
Changping Jun said suspiciously: "Li Si's official business is so busy, why do you have time to help me?" ”
After Li Liang made a goodbye gesture to Teng Yi and the others. dragged the Changpingjun brothers to go.
In the bow of the hundred officials, Ying Zheng sat firmly on the throne, and Zhu Ji sat on the right rear side.
The steps of the throne of the main hall are divided into two levels. Ying Zheng's personal guards were led by Changping Jun and Chang Wenjun, and they were arranged straight from the steps under the throne to the palace gate, and the atmosphere was solemn.
Except for the guards, no one is allowed to carry a sword.
More than 70 civil and military generals. Put on a neat official uniform. On both sides of the wild goose column, on the right is Lu Buwei, followed by Wang Juan, Cai Ze, Jia Gongcheng, Yunyang Jun Yingao, Yiqu Jun Yingqi and other civil ministers, Li Si and Miao Poison are ranked seventeenth and eighteenth respectively, and their official positions are quite high.
On the other side, Wang Ling is the king's tomb, followed by Wang Ya, Mengfu, and Du Bi.
Not to mention the identity of the national teacher, Li Liang, as the crown prince and the prince, is also respected. Only under Du Bi, there were nearly 30 people after the fight.
However, Li Liang did not take place in the order of real power given by the courtiers. Directly under Lü Buwei's customary kind invitation, in his astonishment, he ascended to the throne of the noble national teacher next to the throne.
Ying Zhengxian expressed his condolences to Lu Gong and announced that the funeral would be held in seven days, and of course he personally presided over it.
Li Liang saw that Yingzheng was calm and calm, and he had the spirit of the future Qin Shi Huang, and he was happy in his heart.
Everyone was waiting for the performance, and Lü Buwei said in a precedent: "The Queen Mother, the Prince Mingjian, my Great Qin is now in an eventful autumn, first there was a change in the people of Dongjun, and then Xu Xiang was attacked and killed in Wei, and Lu Gong died of grief and anger. It is advisable to immediately reorganize the government, fill the vacancy, make great efforts, and then make Weide stronger. After a pause, he snorted coldly: "The blood debt must be repaid in blood, otherwise Dongfang Xiao'er will bully me Daqin and no one else!" ”
Wang Jaw shouted angrily: "The Chu people are really too deceitful, thinking that sending them to the Chunshen Jun level and ceding the five counties can calm our anger, but it is indeed too naïve." ”
The ministers chimed in. The momentum is immense.
Ying Zheng coldly looked at everyone's reactions, and said indifferently: "Whether it is necessary to recover the blood debt from the Chu people, so there is another hidden situation in the matter, so I will not mention it for the time being." As for the two vacancies vacated by Xu Xiang and the general, after discussing with the Queen Mother, the widow already had an idea. ”
Lu Buwei was stunned, looked at Zhu Ji, saw that the latter had no reaction, knew that something was wrong, and said in a deep voice: "Xu met and attacked and died, even the Chu people admit it bluntly, and there is still a secret in the unknown?" Please make it clear. ”
Ying Zheng said unhappily: "The widow just said that he would put this matter aside for the time being, that is, put it aside, didn't the middle father hear clearly?" ”
These words were said extremely politely, Lu Buwei's face changed slightly, and he glanced at Wang Ya and Meng Fu, and kept silent.
Without Zhu Ji's support, he dared to contradict Yingzheng.
Wang Hao and the others couldn't imagine that Yingzheng was so tough, and they didn't dare to speak rashly for a while.
Since Shang Ying's reform of Qin Zheng, the monarch has centralized power, so if Zhu Ji does not object, Yingzheng can indeed do whatever he wants, unless he is overthrown; Otherwise his word is an order.
Ying Zheng is secretly happy. Since Li Liang left Qin, under the pressure of Zhu Ji and Lü Buwei, he has been swallowing his anger. Now that Li Liang is back, both in substance and psychologically, he feels that the shape has changed greatly, so he will not take the opportunity to assert the monarch's power, and use the attack on Lü Buwei to achieve the goal of deterring the ministers.
If he weren't for that, he wouldn't have been the first emperor in the future.
The hall was silent for a while, so that a pin drop could be heard.
Zhu Ji said: "The Grand Sima of the Military and Political Yuan is made up by General Wang Ling, can the secretaries have any objections?" ”
Li Liang sighed secretly in his heart when he heard this, thinking that if these words were said by Yingzheng, the future Qin Shi Huang, he would consult everyone's opinions.
Wang Qian is a member of Wang Ling's clan, and when he heard this, he said happily: "General Wang Ling is indeed the best candidate." ”
Lü Buwei originally intended to be discouraged, but in this case, Zhu Ji was helpless when he opened the golden mouth, and couldn't help but stare at Li Liang fiercely, knowing that he was making trouble.
Cai Ze leaned on the old and betrayed the old, bowed down and said: "The position of the left prime minister is a matter of importance, if it is not a person of high moral character, he will not be able to teach people to be convinced, I don't know who the queen mother and the prince are in their hearts?" ”
This time it was Zhu Ji's turn to be speechless. Because if it is said that virtue is high. When will it be Changping's turn?
Li Liang looked at Changping Jun, who was standing on the side of the guard under the steps, and saw that he hung his head and was silent, and his face was swollen and red. Obviously, he was shocked in his heart, knowing that if he didn't create some momentum for him at this time, when all the ministers echoed Cai Ze, maybe Zhu Ji would not be able to make up her mind. Haha smiled and said: "Cai Gong said it well, but this seat thinks that it is not enough, and foolishly thinks that those who are qualified to fill the position of prime minister must meet three conditions." ”
Then he turned to Ying Zheng and Zhu Ji and bowed and said, "Queen Mother." Chu Jun Mingjian, can you let Wei Chen express his opinion? ”
Ying Zheng was overjoyed and asked Zhu Ji for instructions. Said happily: "National teacher, please speak up, don't have any scruples." ”
Lü Buwei and the others were all bad, and they couldn't stop it.
Du Bi sneered on his face, and from his standpoint, he would rather be the position of the left minister. It's not someone who fell under Lü Buwei.
Although Wang Jaw was inclined to Lü Buwei. But after all, he is the backbone of the local forces of the Qin ** side, and he also has a good impression of Li Liang, so as long as Li Liang is reasonable, he will support it.
This medium-shaped shì is indeed very subtle.
Everyone's eyes were focused on Li Liang.
Li Liang smiled arrogantly and said: "The only way to employ people is talented, first this person must have real materials and practical learning, enough to take on this position." As for virtue that can be cultivated, it is not so important at present. Take Lu Xiang as an example. At the beginning of his tenure, everyone knows what it was like. But who is not convinced now, from this we can know the truth behind Weichen's first condition. ”
Everyone was speechless, because Li Liang stubbornly blamed the matter on Lü Buwei, and if he still spoke out against it, it would become aimed at Lü Buwei.
Lu Buwei almost blew his lungs in anger, he hated people to mention his past the most, but at this moment it was difficult to speak.
Meng Fu's face sank, and he said coldly: "May I ask Master Li, what are the other two conditions?" ”
Li Liang said calmly: "The position of the left minister, most of the subordinates are military and political subordinates, so this person must come from the military generals, and in order to stabilize the morale of the army, this person must be like Xu Xiang is a military general born in the native of Great Qin, so that I can teach the Great Qin generals to be happy and sincere, this condition is very important, and it must not be taken lightly." ”
In this way, the possibility of Wang Juan or Meng Fu being the prime minister of the left is completely denied.
And those who fully meet these two conditions are only Du Bi and Wang Hao, and Changping Jun is still a little bit behind.
Lu Buwei's face was blue with anger, but he was speechless, because Li Liang was indeed on the side of reason.
The military generals of the Qin State, from the king's teeth, all agreed.
Ying Zheng patted the case and said: "Well said, now even the widow wants to know the third condition." ”
Li Liang first thanked Yingzheng for agreeing with him, and said with a smile: "The third condition is that this person must be young and promising, so as to accompany the prince to grow up together, so as to ensure the continuation of the policy." It is also a basic guarantee for the stable continuation of our Great Qin State. ”
Frankly speaking, this was the weakest link of Li Liang's three conditions.
When the ministers were in turmoil and discussions, Li Liang continued: "You can imagine, can I ask if the core important ministers who can grow together with the prince will be beneficial to the stability of my Great Qin's eternal foundation? ”
Some nodded thoughtfully, others frowned and remained silent.
Lu Buwei must have resolutely opposed it, and said with a smile: "Mrs. Li's last condition is really debatable, I don't know who is the candidate in Taifu's heart?" ”
Ying Zheng laughed and said: "The words of the national teacher are in line with the meaning of the widow, and Changping Jun will accept the order!" ”
The main hall fell silent.
Changpingjun ran out and knelt under the dragon steps.
Ying Zheng said solemnly: "From today onwards, Changping Jun will be the left prime minister of my Great Qin. The will of the widow has been decided, and the Qing family must not say much, resulting in another branch! ”
Li Liang's conscience was amused, his double reed play with Ying Zheng made Lu Buwei, who was so angry that his face was colorless, and he had to take the lead in kneeling down and admitting Ying Zheng's decree. It clearly shows the difference between the orthodox royal power and the important ministers of the auxiliary state.
Stimulated by this time, Lu Buwei will definitely gradually move towards confrontation with Ying Zheng, and even accelerate the pace of replacing Ying Zheng's position.
This time, the layout dealt with and suppressed Lu Buwei and regained the disadvantage. What seemed impossible to others has become a reality.
The key point is to first obtain the support of Miao Poison and Zhu Ji, and in this way, the side of Miao Poison and Zhu Ji also openly broke with Lü Buwei, and there is no room for reversal.
In this way, with Yingzheng's temporary alliance with Chang Yu and Zhu Ji, many of Lü Buwei's decrees and rights will be suppressed, and this defeat will also be a big blow to Lü Buwei.
After the political situation was reshuffled, the two sides temporarily returned to the position of the balance of power.
After Li Si clearly planned the terms of reference of his position and issued a formal decree, Lü Buwei might be even more constrained when he interfered in military and political affairs. (To be continued......)
