0033 Carving Insects and Public Rewards

Li Zhen's father and son plotted the chaos in a hurry, and the defeat was sudden, so that the second batch of troops to quell the rebellion had not yet been assembled, and the military disaster had been pacified.

As a result, there are also a few happy and a few sad families in the capital. For the Li Tang clan and some of the current people who are interested in the Li family, it is quite a bit of disillusionment and despair, could it be that the Wu clan has been in charge of Li for several days?

But more people are still happy. Especially for ordinary people, as long as they don't fight and don't get their homes destroyed by war, it's always good.

Whether it is Chang'an or Luoyang, who the master of the palace is actually does not have too deep a relationship with them, it is nothing more than a small sigh, and they have to worry that the wall has ears and does not dare to speak arbitrarily, so as not to be told by others.

However, for the Empress Dowager Wu, the end of the war disaster means a new beginning, and since the butcher's knife has been drawn, it will definitely not be easily withdrawn. Previously, even if she wanted to cleanse the hidden dangers of the Li Tang clan, she still had to take into account the comments of the government and the opposition, especially the attitudes of the court officials.

However, the chaos of Li Zhen's father and son provided her with an excellent opportunity to excuse herself, and there was really no reason to let it go. Digging deep and investigating the secrets of the reverse case will be the most important task in the next period of time!

Many Li clans are waiting to be slaughtered, and there is no need for the queen mother to be instructed, and many people who want to speculate and seek luck are already gearing up, smelling the fish, and wanting to do a big job.

The high walls of the deep palace are embraced, and no matter how turbulent the turmoil in the outer court is, it has not yet affected the Li Tong family who are imprisoned in the deep palace for the time being.

After the episode of the Hundred Cavalry Sergeant Guo Dana, life returned to a pool of stagnant water. But Li Tong no longer feels bored, because there is a channel for the Xu family, he can also have a small understanding of all kinds of deeds outside the palace, and occasionally hear that someone has suffered, sympathize with it, sigh and sigh, but if it comes to the most real feelings, it is actually lucky.

How people feel about their own experiences, half of them are compared. When I see someone who is worse than myself, although I don't say it, I still feel a little down-to-earth in my heart. Although he was a little gloating, he couldn't help but say that this was the only kindness he could give to his superficial relatives at the moment.

In addition to this evil taste of laughing at fifty steps and a hundred steps, Li Tong also had a bit of joy in his heart for accurately grasping the situation. Wu Zetian's brutalization of the Li Tang clan looked like a bloody storm, but there was still a rhythm inside.

The batch of people who have been knocked out in the fourth year of the vertical arch are mainly the descendants of Gaozu and Taizong. Because the current Wu Zetian has not yet been officially asserted, he still needs to borrow the political legacy of Gaozong Li Zhi.

Therefore, the descendants of Gaozong have not been killed, and even Li Sujie, the son of Concubine Xiao Shufei, the old enemy of Gongdou, is still assassinating in other states. Of course, this is just pinching his fingers and waiting to die, after Wu Zetian officially became the system in the first year of the Heavenly Grant, Gaozong's heirs were not from her, and they must all be killed without discussion. Walking a hundred miles and a half ninety, it is not bad for these life debts.

The complexity of his political stance makes it difficult for Li Tong to feel sad and bitter about the death of a rabbit and a fox. Although Wu Zetian is ruthless, what she is doing now is not clearing the obstacles for her children and grandchildren, although objectively speaking, family affection is only a bargaining chip for her to gain power rather than a human bond.

After the two dynasties of Zhongzong and Ruizong, there were also frequent turbulences and many palace changes, but the imperial system was still able to firmly control the two saints and one line, and the brothers and sisters should also thank their mothers. After all, the Li Tang clan has all kinds of demons, but there is a shortage of good men and women.

As long as there is Wu Zetian's blood flowing on his body, he belongs to the outliers in the clan, and in the eyes of the other Li Tang clans, he probably belongs to the category of evil species.

The so-called gentleman cooks far away, endures his life, and can't bear to see his death. Anyway, it's not in your own hands, after a handful of sympathetic tears, you can enjoy the new situation safely.

Born in the emperor's family, they can be regarded as having eaten, played, and enjoyed, and compared with other innocent and implicated people during this period, these Li Tang clans are not too much of a loss.

These words can also be placed on Li Tong's body, so that he will not die and become Li Xian's son, and the meat will be eaten, how can he not be beaten. But even if you look at death as home, it always feels weird to use it in this situation. So for his future, Li Tong is also deeply delusional, hoping that tomorrow will be better.

Maybe it's really a memory, and there will be an echo. Although they are not in the temple at the moment, there are still sporadic gossip about their family in the temple from time to time.

Although Li Zhen's father and son have been extinguished, the aftermath has not stopped. With the passage of time, some rumors around this gradually spread into Luoyang, and some gossip arose in the market, such as Li Dan, the son of heaven, who had been killed by the Queen Mother, including the family of King Yong, whose bones sank under the Jiuzhou Pool. The speaker swears, and the listener sighs.

"Fangye's heresy is really hateful! It is a great sin to rebel against the nation and trouble. Fallacies are framed, slandering the order of the heavenly family, and it is even more unbearable! The foolish people are deceived by this, and they must be severely ordered and punished to correct the world and return to simplicity! ”

In the palace emblem of the Taichu Palace, facing Di Renjie, who had a strict punishment order and greatly hurt the people's feelings, the queen mother looked angry and said in a deep voice. When she met with the minister, she had always been in a phoenix crown uniform, majestic and solemn, and at this moment, she was angry, and there was an awe-inspiring majesty.

Di Renjie sat at the foot of the hall steps, although he was nearly sixty years old, his body under the purple robe was still thick and straight, and he was not rickety.

At the beginning of the year, he served as the governor of Jiangnan, and after returning to the capital, he transferred to Wenchang Youcheng, which lasted only two months, and was selected to serve as the assassin of Yuzhou. But she didn't expect that as soon as she talked about this topic, the Queen Mother was furious and indignant.

Facing the angry Queen Mother, Di Renjie was also a little apprehensive in his heart, and he pondered for a moment before he spoke again: "The people are stupid, this is the prime minister's fault. Religion is secular and not a criminal position. The rebellion is already a misfortune for the country, and the soldiers use their lives to prevent small illnesses from becoming major disasters. However, if the government is out of order because of this, and the criminal pawn replaces Lao Zaifu, it will lose the original intention of setting the chaos in Yasukun. If there is really a talent among the criminals, but they are only paid for their humble duties, the ministers are afraid that the court will lose their soldiers. ”

When Wu Zetian heard this, he was dumbfounded for a while. She naturally knows what kind of clothes those rampant cool officials are, and no matter how ignorant her conscience is, it is difficult to say that there is any missing pearl in them.

Di Renjie secretly changed the concept and raised the picket of the criminal officials to the dissatisfaction with the prime minister's group, but just now she first put the rumors on the line, but she didn't know how to refute it for a while.

Seeing that the Queen Mother was silent, Di Renjie continued: "The government is established and destroyed, and it is difficult to know the people's hearts for a long time against the trend. For example, the evil wind blows dust, it is difficult to shake the weight of Mount Tai, occasionally or a moment to disturb the audio-visual, for a long time, it is not a big trouble. Dunjiao tames the people, blocking is better than sparse, enough to use it, relieve its difficulties, then Shishu Xian'an. ”

If Wu Zetian was only slightly embarrassed before, but when he heard Di Renjie continue, his mood gradually turned to shame.

What does it mean to solve its problems? The people's doubts are nothing more than whether she imprisoned and killed her children and grandchildren? It's also very simple to clear up her doubts, so that her children and grandchildren can show up a lot, and the rumors will be solved.

Although Di Renjie had expressed it very tactfully, he still couldn't change his original intention was to hope that the emperor Li Dan, who lived in seclusion, could stand in the front desk and directly face the subjects of the Tang Dynasty!

"Di Gongti is straightforward, and every time he asks for advice, he benefits a lot. If it weren't for the urgent dispatch of state affairs, I really hope that the public can stay in Taiwan for a long time and save the trouble. ”

Wu Zetian took a deep breath before smiling again. Don't you have a little bit of who you are? It's not Zaifu, it's not a counselor, it's just an expatriate assassin, these topics are not within your responsibility, just keep your mouth shut.

Although he was already a little unhappy in his heart, Wu Zetian still restrained himself. For truly capable courtiers, even if there is misconduct, she is willing to tolerate them.

Previously, Di Renjie banned obscenity in the south of the Yangtze River, showing the talented side of the officials, and now Yuzhou has just experienced the disturbance of the rebellion of Li Zhen, the king of Yue, and it is the time when the people's hearts are floating and the people's feelings are disturbed, and it is in need of good talents to pacify, so she chose to send Di Renjie, who has returned to the capital not long ago.

But tolerance does not mean connivance, and Di Renjie's attitude is quite representative among the government and the opposition. Although these people do not violate the big things, they still only regard her as the empress dowager of Li Tang and the transition between Gaozong and the current emperor, rather than seeing her as a person with independent personality and authority.

Furthermore, didn't Di Renjie wonder if she had imprisoned her children and grandchildren? Thinking of this, Wu Zetian felt a lot of shame in his heart.

Although the situation has developed to this point, it has reached the point where it is difficult to see the dagger. But when there is still room for strength, Wu Zetian also hopes to be able to do something more decent.

The so-called people have no ceremony, what is not to die? She wants to reign over the world and include the talents of the United States for her own use, and the necessary whitewashing must not be ignored. Especially for some people who have talent and will not completely lose the bottom line for glory and wealth, leave a little step for each other to be safe.

Those cool officials are fortunate to be easy to use, but if the whole court is like this, the court will inevitably be in a miasma. This will further solidify the image of her heroine who is in trouble with the country, and it is also a situation that Wu Zetian has been trying to avoid.

"Di Gong has been absent for a long time, spinning around, which is regrettable. Parting is imminent, a few days ago to get a carved insect, and the public elegance reward. ”

Wu Zetian turned sideways slightly, and instructed His Majesty to establish the palace: "Go and get the manuscript of "Ciwu Poems". ”

Di Renjie was hanging his head at this moment and was alerted to the beating of the Queen Mother's words, although he was already trying his best to warn himself not to be too hasty and too aggressive, but sometimes it was still inevitable that he would show his intention too eagerly. Such a self-warning, I didn't pay too much attention to this.

Soon, the palace people hurriedly returned, and handed the poem manuscript to Di Renjie at the signal of the Queen Mother. Di Renjie hung his head and looked at the scroll, his face gradually changed, especially when he saw the poem manuscript "Obey the righteousness and solemnly present the emperor", the change in his face could no longer be concealed, and he looked up and doubted: "This, this is ......"

Seeing the change in Di Renjie's demeanor, the little sadness that had just risen in Wu Zetian's heart quickly dissipated, and he raised his head and sighed and said: "Although it is a young stubborn dedication, how can Huang Kou do it with the pure meaning within the alliance." If Di Gong has a degree, it is not wrong, it is the old man's heart-piercing last words. ”
