Chapter 539: Re-entering the court
Qingwang Mansion.
The news of the destruction of the Lu family made Li Qing feel very surprised and surprised.
Originally, he thought that it should be Li Yu who suffered, but why was the Lu family destroyed as soon as Li Yu came back?
Things are a little beyond his imagination, but the Lu family was destroyed, and he was also happy, after all, the Lu family is Li Shang's people, and now Li Shang has no support from the Lu family, and he will not be proud in the court in the future, right?
"Hmph, come on, go and help this king bring all the forces of the Lu family in the court to me."
What Wei Zheng can think of, Li Qing can also think of.
In fact, fighting for the throne, the forces in the court have always been the objects that these princes want to compete for, even if Li Qing and Wei Zheng think differently, he will still think of doing this.
It's just that just when Li Qing gave such an order, Du Ruhui suddenly shook his head, "Lord Wang, just pull a few of them a little, and give the rest to the Wing King." ”
Hearing this, Li Qing was a little puzzled and asked, "Mr. Du, how can you give this kind of opportunity to Li Shang?" ”
Du Ruhui said, "Lord Wang, now that Li Yu has returned to the capital, he is the eldest son after all, and he still has a great advantage in seizing the heir, if your power is too strong, it is difficult to guarantee that Li Yu will not join forces with Li Shang, and it will not be good at that time, so the last way is to let Li Shang continue to exist, let him fight with Tang Yu, and the prince only needs to sit on the mountain and watch." ”
"This ......" Li Qing hesitated a little, the power of the Lu family is not weak, so he is really a little reluctant to give most of it to Li Shang.
However, after thinking about it, he felt that it was better to obey Du Ruhui's arrangement, so the final order was only changed to subdue a small number of people.
And just when Li Qing made arrangements like this, Fang Xuanling's side also began to act.
Since coming back from Shuozhou, Fang Xuanling has secretly helped Li Yu cultivate forces in the capital, but these forces in the capital have already been divided up by several princes and families, and there are really few people he can win over.
Now that the Lu family has been destroyed, it is a great opportunity for him.
Fang Xuanling's methods are still okay, and he recognizes himself to help Li Yu win over a lot.
The smell of blood in the capital is still permeating, not only those forces of the Lu family are panicking, but also other families are worried, because the imperial court has done something to the family, and now that the Lu family is gone, will they do it to other families?
Uneasy emotions spread in the capital, but secretly there were storms, each with its own calculations.
The next day, the morning dynasty.
After Li Yu made some preparations, he rushed to the early dynasty.
Li Yu didn't go early, and when everyone else was standing on the main hall waiting for Li Shimin, Li Yu walked in slowly from outside.
When Li Yu walked into the main hall, all the ministers were shocked and discussed.
They didn't expect that Li Yu, who was just demoted, would make a comeback again a few months later and re-enter the court.
They don't know what kind of wind and rain Li Yu's return will bring, but they know that after the capital, it will definitely not be peaceful.
Everyone pointed and discussed, but Li Yu didn't take these things seriously at all, but came to the main hall very calmly and stood in his place.
As King Yongde, his rank was a little lower than Li Qing's, so he stood directly behind those princes.
He stood like this, and no one would raise an objection.
And just after Li Yu stood like this, Li Shimin walked out from behind.
"Long live my emperor, long live, long live."
"Aiqing is flat."
Li Shimin looked at the ministers below, and then said, "King Yongde is out of the ranks. ”
Li Yu walked out, "Father, son, here." ”
"King Yongde has made meritorious contributions to governing the people in Shuozhou, and has solved the law of the Lu family's conspiracy to collude with the Turks to destroy our Tang Kingdom, so stay in the capital in the future."
This is said casually, but no matter who hears it, they are a little shocked, because there is a deeper meaning in this sentence.
Generally speaking, when the prince becomes an adult, he will be sent to his fiefdom, and he is not allowed to enter Beijing unless the court has a summons.
Those who can stay in the capital are all candidates for the crown prince.
For example, Qingwang Tang Qing, for example, Wing King Li Shang, and of course Li Yu, who was the crown prince, before.
But now that Li Yu has stayed in the capital as King Yongde, this has obviously added a lot of variables to the matter of seizing the heir.
Many people in the DPRK and China have begun to think about it.
Li Yu's side retreated after receiving the order.
"The matter of the Lu family, I think you have already heard about it, it's not that I'm ruthless, it's that their Lu family betrayed my Tang Kingdom, and it won't work if it doesn't happen, but you don't have to worry, I've always been against things, not against people, the Lu family's rebellion is the Lu family's business, and I won't involve anyone else."
To be the Son of Heaven, you must have a city, and when you should be decisive, you must be decisive in killing, ruthless, and leave no room for anything, but sometimes when it is time to appease, you still have to appease.
Although he knew that the Lu family's power had a lot of remnants, he was also willing to turn a blind eye for the stability of the Tang Kingdom.
Of course, Li Shimin knows better that the remnants of the Lu family will not belong to the Lu family soon, so many people in the DPRK are staring at this piece of fat of the Lu family, those forces are either attached to them or destroyed, they have no better choice.
For the Tang Kingdom, this is a good thing.
Although Li Shimin spent the first half of his life in the war, he also had his own way of how to control his majesty, the emperor's mental technique, what he paid attention to was a balance, and his former teacher taught him this, and he never forgot it.
After Li Shimin's words were finished, the ministers of the court and the central government looked at each other, although it was not a good performance on the surface, but they were all relieved in their hearts.
They are attached to the Lu family, just for the sake of profit, and now that the Lu family is gone, as long as they can still live well, they will not think about avenging the Lu family or anything.
After all, they are trying to test the Lu family's cronies, they are just the Lu family's influence in the court.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts, and the next court affairs became much smoother.
"Saint, the day of the triennial Three Kingdoms Great Competition is getting closer and closer, but there is no news from the Liang State and the Qi State, which is really strange."
The Tang State was between the Liang State and the Qi State, and the relationship between the three kingdoms was very complicated, sometimes they were enemies, sometimes they were partners, and they needed to defend themselves together.
Therefore, every three years, a big competition will be held in the capital of the Tang Kingdom to enhance exchanges, and of course, the country that wins in the big competition will also have more say in future matters.
This year happens to be the triennial Dabi year, but the date of the Dabi is getting closer and closer, but there is no news from Liang and Qi, and Honglu Siqing, who is in charge of this time, thinks it is very strange, so he mentions it in the court.
