Now the emperor knows that Gao Yue and the prime minister's team are colluding, taking advantage of the dispute between counties and feudalism, and then striking later.

If it is according to this so-called "Zhongshu Province Xing" system, after that, the guards of local towns will all be selected from the three provinces of Shangshu under the Zhongshu Sect where the prime minister or the prime minister lives, and on the contrary, after the rank of the guards of the local towns is full, they will return to the center as the prime minister, each with a time limit, but whether the period is five or ten years, Du Huangshang, Lu Zhen, Zheng Qi, and Gao Yue, the "initiator", may not have formed a formal resolution, or there is, but they do not say to him, the emperor.

The emperor believed that there would naturally be no feudal division in the province, but it would still jeopardize his power.

In the future, the country of the world is a policy, and it will all be the prime minister's collegiate judgment and implementation, what else do you want he, the Holy Lord of the Heavens, to do?

The emperor wanted to fight them, but the emperor was tired now.

In the past two years, his hair has been gray, his teeth have fallen loosely, and the emperor's memory and perseverance have gradually declined.

After the Yanying Hall was summoned, the emperor who returned from the pavilion to the forbidden area, saw the blood-red sunset over the palace and the indigo clouds, and a sad breath surged into his heart, "I, it seems that I can't fight you...... There are many of you, and you have formed a vertical and horizontal alliance, but the alliance has never been unbreakable, this time to see if Wei Gao and Du You can accept this provincial system, if not, that is when I judge in the middle...... In the end, I wanted to see if Wei was not separated from Gao, or Gao was not separated from Wei. ”

At the Xiwei Bridge built by the Jingshi with boats, Liu Pi, the judge of Jiannan, rode his horse past, and then looked back at the city gate, threatening, "Wei Ling has made great contributions to the country, but he wants to ask for the lord of the world but can't, I am afraid that people will be removed from Guanzhong!" ”

After speaking, Liu Pi walked with a horsewhip fiercely, but less than ten miles forward, he saw a few people in the pavilion wearing official uniforms, and they called it Dr. Liu?

Liu Bi and Hu Cong dismounted, and those who were waiting here introduced themselves and said that we were all subordinates of the Prince's Mansion.

Liu Pi was very surprised by this.

But those officials gave up their hands and said something to Liu Pi, and then gave Liu Pi a lot of goods.

When Liu Pi got up from the pavilion and got on the horse again, his expression was a little trance.

After continuing to walk for a few miles, there was a group of officials in green shirts waiting on the side of the road, introducing that we and the others were all officials of the Huainan Jinju Academy, so they sent a secret letter to Liu Pi, saying that this was given to the doctor by Gu Xiu and Li Feng, and that it must be handed over to Yu Weiling.

Half a month later, in the Junxi Pavilion of Shudu, Wei Gao and many beautiful concubines were sitting proudly in their respective interests, surrounded by peacocks on all sides, and on the opposite side was Yang Jiaming, the envoy of Nanzhao, who came to the music of the Tang Dynasty Shuling Jin in the southwest.

"Please." Wei Gao was very polite.

As a result, the group of musicians had just sung and danced five words, and Wei Gao interrupted with a smile, "You are all from the country of Biu!" I want to be happy with my Tang, the same as Yunnan, to express the meaning of deference. ”

Yang Jiaming and the group of musicians were all surprised.

"Your music, palace and sign each change, which represents the return of the southwest. The dance is seven stacks of six percent, seven is the number of fire, to show that the holy lord has biochemical kindness, and the six runes, symbolizing the southwest corner has the meaning of innovation. Wei Gao explained, and then he pointed to a musician's arms in the arms of the big sheng and said, "This kind of musical instrument Nanzhao also has, but only when you play the ancient eight tones, you use gold as a reed, not a sound, this way of playing music, this way of playing, this way of playing, this way of knowing is only available in the country of Bi. Therefore, you and others are all musicians of the country of Bi, hoping to use Nanzhao as an intermediary and want to pay tribute to me Tang. ”

"Wei Ling is really a god!" Yang Jiaming and a group of musicians hurriedly bowed down.

"But your music and singing and dancing are too different from those of Middle-earth, so this way will first draw your dancing and musical instruments into a graphic and present them to Chang'an City; Then you stay in Shudu for the time being, and this way will properly renovate and rehearse your songs and dances, and then send you to Chang'an, how about it? ”

This group of people hurriedly agreed, and Wei Gao asked them to go to the pavilion of Jinguancheng in Shudu to live.

After nightfall, Liu Pi, who had just returned, asked to see him.

"Although you got the guidance of Han Yu and Li Feng to defeat Liu Zongyuan in the rebuttal, but as expected by this Dao, the Holy Lord immediately made a decision and did not let the rebuttal continue. It shows that the Holy Lord has lost the idea of ruling the world, and he lacks confidence to go down by suppressing the debate of the scribes. ”

Liu Pi sent a secret letter from Huainan Jinjuanyuan.

"The content of this letter, Yi Song has asked the haunted merchant to come and tell me before." After Wei Gao read the letter, he said leisurely.

Liu Bi was slightly surprised, what else do you want me to do.

Wei Gao also saw the confusion of his judge, so he explained: "In the beginning, you are Yi Song's fellow shed, I never treat you as an official, you followed me all the way to become a shogunate judge, and so far for nearly ten years, all the affairs of the palace are entrusted to you; The relationship between you and me is the same as the relationship between Yi Song and Wei Ping, so Yi Song did this, the meaning is very simple, it means that I still need you as a bridge between me and him, and everyone must not have suspicion. ”

Now Liu Pi understood, so he told Wei Gao what the so-called people from the Prince's Mansion said to him.

"You reply immediately, don't pass the pen of the secretary, and return directly to His Royal Highness the Prince, and say that Wei Gao understands."

"That line of the book provincial system ......"

"I said I wanted to be feudal, Gao Yue said that I wanted to go to the province of Zhongshu, and when I got to the side of the Jingshi, the prime ministers of the Zhongshu sect made it clear that they didn't want to be feudal, and the reaction of the holy lord was intriguing, of course the holy lord refused to be feudal, but he was noncommittal about the attitude of the province of Zhongshu, but he sent the envoy to ask me. In the beginning, in your opinion, what did the Holy Lord mean by this? ”

"The Holy Lord's mind is nothing more than wanting to use this to drive a wedge between us and Huainan and Lingnan."

Wei Gao smiled lightly and said yes, "But Yi Song and I are not the original Xiaoyangshan people, nor Lu Qi, we seem to be smart, but in fact we are manipulated by the Holy Lord in the palm of our hands, and if you want to be spoiled, you will be spoiled, and if you want to be deposed, you will be deposed - of course the Zhongshu Province is a good system, and I, Wei Gao, am the Zhongshu Order of the current dynasty, do you ask me if I support it?" I, of course, support. In addition, of course, I also support His Majesty and the Crown Prince. ”

At this time, Liu Bi suddenly realized, and even said that I will do it immediately!

"Wait."

Liu Bi stopped.

"Yi Song said that he had been in office for two years in Huainan Jiedu, and he was going to return to the court to participate in the Hajj, the real meaning of this is that when Yi Song returns to the court, I also have to return to the court, I am afraid that Du Junqing is the same, but there may be another meaning."

Liu Bi was a little confused, but he quickly figured it out, "Wei Ling, that is to say...... Maybe Ziqing or Weibo will have to suffer from the imperial court in two years? ”

Regarding this speculation, Wei Gao nodded and agreed, "By crusading against Ziqing and Wei Bo, the prime ministers of Zhongshu and Xingzhongshu Province may have a fixed term, that is, ten years, and Your Majesty has no right to interfere with this." ”
