Chapter 792: Merging and Connecting (18)
What do you think? ”
You Yuanfeng asked out loud.
Liu Jian didn't speak, because at this time, a figure was revealed outside the door, and then You Mingyuan's voice sounded: "Second uncle, the guests have arrived, just waiting for you and Liu Lao Xiangguo." ”
"Let them wait, it's okay, don't come and bother casually."
You Yuanfeng waved his hand impatiently.
You Mingyuan, who was outside the door, was slightly stunned by the reprimand, but immediately understood that the second uncle You Yuanfeng and Liu Ji, I am afraid that some important words have not been finished yet.
You Mingyuan didn't say anything, then turned around and left, and ordered a few guards outside the courtyard that no one was allowed to go in and disturb them.
Liu Wei leaned forward, approached You Yuanfeng, and said in a low voice: "It is rumored that Emperor Xingzong once intended to replace the crown prince and let the winged king Zhao He ascend the throne......... Get the King of Qi to the west, I have only recently heard this news, and I don't know if it is true or not. ”
You Yuanfeng said with a smile: "When the King of Qi arrives in the west, he will give him all the land of the seven states in the west of Longyou and the entire Western Regions, and establish the State of Qi?" ”
Liu Yu glanced at You Yuanfeng and asked, "You Yuanfeng, you don't seem to be surprised at all, could it be that you have already heard this news?" ”
"No, it's the first time I've heard the news you said."
You Yuanfeng smiled: "Anything, maybe it happens suddenly, which is difficult to understand, but as long as the reason is clear, think carefully, and think of the key to it, it feels normal." ”
Liu Yu borrowed You Yuanfeng's words just now and asked rhetorically, "Oh, what do you think?" ”
You Yuanfeng pondered for a moment, squinted his eyes and said slowly: "Zhao He and the current emperor have a lot in common, first, both of them have very humble backgrounds, both of them have forbearant personalities, and the city government is extremely deep, and second, whether it is Zhao He or the current emperor, they both have great ambitions and ambitions....."
Zhao Zhi was able to come back to life and bring the Great Jin out of a desperate situation, relying on the strength of the gate valve family, but at the same time, he also tried his best to suppress and prevent the gate valve family, as far as You Yuanfeng's words are concerned, Zhao Zhi has actually done two things in his life, vertical and horizontal.
At the beginning of Zhao Zhi's succession, the court was chaotic, the political forces of various factions were tilting against each other, the struggle was very fierce, and the outside was also ethereal, internal and external troubles, and the building was about to fall.
That is, to vigorously support the Yang family where Yang Daosi is located, and the Liu family where Liu Wei is located, so that one of them can manage Wen and one Guan Wu, and strengthen the power of these two families at the fastest speed, and then, the imperial power represented by Zhao Zhi united the Yang family and the Liu family, which were the strongest political forces at that time, and the three families worked together to drive out the chaotic and unstable factors in the court from the core.
This is also why, in the more than 20 years that Yang Daosi and Liu Wei were in power, some of the old gate valve families that have been famous all over the world for a long time, such as the Pei family, the Kuai family, the Chen family in Hedong, the An family, the Hua family in Huainan and the Wu family and the Pang family in the Jiangnan region, etc., many of them were still very active in the Pingzong Dynasty, in the center, the official position was prominent, and in just a few years after Zhao Zhi succeeded to the throne, many of the rulers of the gate valve clan disappeared from the court, and these gate valve families that once occupied most positions in the court, did not leave by himself, but was forcibly expelled from Fengjing by Zhao Zhi and Yang Daosi and Liu Wei.
And in the later period, that is, after the rebellion of the White Turban Army, from the first year of Chengping, Zhao Zhi began to choose Lian Heng, gathering the weak and attacking the strong, from this period, promoted a group of families like Qin Anming, Liu Congji, Liu Zhigu, An Jian, Jin Hui, Yue Jiming, etc., who were not too strong and had an average background, and placed them one by one into the core of the court, containing and suppressing Yang Daosi's right prime minister's party, and even Liu Ji's left minister's party.
Whether it is horizontal or vertical, it is just a means, just the need for power and the situation, what Zhao Zhi really wants is to get out of this circle, outside the gate valve family, to establish a new force, a collective that really belongs to the imperial power, and to this collective as a continuation, one day in the future, whether it is an active shot, or a passive shot, at least have the ability and opportunity to fight, this idea may have been a long time ago, Zhao Zhi has already had, but he has been holding back, letting it develop and accumulate secretly, so that it will come naturally.
Li Zhong and the hundreds of thousands of Anbei elites with him as the core are the fruits of Zhao Zhi's layout over the years, and then Li Xun managed the land of the seven states in the west of Longyou, and in just a few years, the development was very good, and it was beyond everyone's expectations, defeating the strong with the weak and winning the entire land of the Western Regions.
"Pure force can't solve the root of the problem, and Emperor Xingzong should understand some truths in his old age, so he will be shaken and changed."
You Yuanfeng continued: "There are dozens of famous and powerful families, among which there are not careerists and treacherous people, but there are also some who value the interests of their own families, and they also have the country in their hearts, if they do not affect their fundamental interests, they will choose to do something for the country. ”
Liu Jie was silent, You Yuanfeng was right, as far as he was concerned, if he did not threaten and shake the fundamental interests of the family, Liu Jie could die for the sake of the country and give up everything he had, but if the interests of the entire overall situation had seriously threatened the survival of the Liu family, Liu Jie chose to protect himself for the first time.
Seeing that Liu Jian didn't speak for a long time, You Yuanfeng poured him a cup of tea, and then said lightly: "Liu Ji, you and I are old acquaintances, I have said so much gossip today, and there is no one point, you are looking for the old man, what do you want to say, if you really have something to say, you will say it happily." ”
Liu Wei came to You's house, it is impossible to find You Yuanfeng to talk about these miscellaneous topics, whether it is Zhao He or Zhao Xun, in You Yuanfeng's opinion, whoever is the emperor is the same, but some people think that Zhao He is better to be the emperor, and Zhao Xun is just right to be the emperor, unless Liu Yu gives You Yuanfeng absolutely true and reliable news, otherwise even if the things are true and false, You Yuanfeng feels that it is nonsense and not believable.
Liu Jian pondered for a long time, and finally said in a low voice: "Liu Congxi spent a lot of money to buy the exam questions and buy the examiner in the imperial examination in Chengping for seven years, and finally allowed Liu Fu to be admitted to the status of a lifter and have the qualifications to be an official. ”
You Yuanfeng's eyes froze, he knew that the critical moment had come, Liu Congxi was a member of the palace, one of Zhao Zhi's henchmen and eunuchs in his later years, and as Liu Congxi's nephew Liu Fu, who was old and sent to his death, had such a close relationship, Liu Yu obviously got some extremely secret news from Liu Fu's mouth.
