Chapter 416 How to Externalize the Li Tang Imperial Family

Chen Xian, Yang Guozhong, Pei Mian, Yang Qi, Zhang Xun, Guo Ziyi, and Gongsun Liang are the seven people who are known as the seven ministers of the imperial court, and they are the seven people below Zhang Xuan who are in charge of the highest government affairs of the Chinese Dynasty, that is, the core of the central power. []

This is a civil official.

The military attache system is headed by Guo Ziyi. Except for Ge Shuhan, Cheng Qianli, and An Sishun, the rest of the people who held the military power were the founding fathers who raised troops with Zhang Xuan.

In addition to the Seven Phases, Zhang Xuan also scraped eight people including Fugu Huaien as marquises, and these eight people were later called the 'Eight Marquis of the Founding of the Country.' "It is the emerging seven nobles of the Chinese Dynasty, and it is prominent.

Today's situation is very obvious, Zhang Xuan, the new emperor, deliberately supported Chen Xian's Chen family x Guo Ziyi's Guo family and the founding eight marquis family, this upstart family has risen to the top, and there is a faint tendency to confront the wealthy families.

Of course, the foundation of the upstart family is still much worse, but this requires the accumulation of time, and it cannot be supported by support.

Although Guo Ziyi was not scraped by the marquis, he was the deputy marshal of the world's soldiers and horses and the governor of the military department, and he could be said to be the real power faction in the court.

Ziyi himself didn't expect to have today's powerful position, he originally thought that it would be good if he could get the military power of a feudal town. But unexpectedly, Zhang Xuan actually kept him by his side to take charge of the military department and entered the court, and became one of the seven people standing at the pinnacle of power in the world.

Xingqing Palace, Look at the De Palace, and participate in the political hall.

Chen Xian is in the center, on the left is Yang Guozhong, Pei Mian, and Gong Buliang, while on the right is Guo Ziyi. Of course, Yang Qi and Zhang Xun have not yet arrived, and their seats are temporarily empty.

'Ladies and gentlemen, now that the court has been newly established and there are many things, we can only live in the palace for the time being, and share your Majesty's worries. Chen Xian hugged his fist and said, "The edict of the hundred officials and the governors and military commanders of the towns has been announced to the world, and the allegiance seals of the towns must be a month before they arrive in Luoyang Now it is a top priority, we still have to start handling the matter of moving the capital." ”

Fortunately, Zhongjing used to be the eastern capital, and the palace and the imperial court offices were all available, and the imperial court moved to the past as a whole, so there should be no big problem. “

Guo Ziyi smiled slightly, "In addition to government affairs, this official thinks that the imperial court will continue to mobilize grain and grass in the two Huai and Jiangnan towns..., in the opinion of this official, His Majesty will raise troops to attack Tubo next spring at the latest, and then decide Zhuhu." ”

Guo Ziyi is Zhang Xuan's confidant, so she naturally knows Zhang Xuan's thoughts, but now she says it, but Yang Guozhong and others are taken aback.

Yang Guozhong frowned and said, "This world is in turmoil, and everything is waiting to be rebuilt, it will take three years or even longer to recuperate, and it will be unfavorable for the country to start a war again, so the prime minister must meet His Majesty and speak out and advise!" ”

Gongsun Liang was silent. Although he maintained his status and was promoted by Zhang Xuan to enter the small collective of power core of the Seven Phases of Politics, he has self-knowledge, and in this kind of military affairs, he can not open his mouth without speaking, so as not to say the wrong thing, offend Guo Ziyi, and anger the emperor even more.

Pei Mian didn't think about things so much, he had a straight personality.

What Yang Xiang said was very true. The rebellion in the world was initially decided, and the people of Li needed to recuperate, and then they had to spend money and food to start a war, which would inevitably lead to a great loss of national strength. Pei Mian echoed.

Although Guo Ziyi is a celebrity around Zhang Xuan, a founding father, and a great hero from Long, he has a modest personality and is not strong, and his attitude towards Yang Guozhong and Gongsun Liang is also relatively friendly, he smiled and said, "Yang Xiang, Pei Xiang, you don't know anything." In the past, His Majesty took the hometown of Tubo and Tuguhun, occupied thousands of miles of fertile fields in Tubo, and immigrated to the military camp, which will become the northwest granary of a great country in China in time. ”

However, the king of Tubo, Stanzhu, took advantage of my civil strife, tore up the covenant, and reoccupied the hometown of Tuyuhun, if it were not for Yang Lian's hard support in Qinghai, it would not be impossible for the Tubo people to re-emerge in the Central Plains. ”

Therefore, His Majesty will definitely use troops against Tibet. One is to stabilize the border, the other is to recover Tuyuhun's hometown and even...," Guo Ziyi let out a sigh of relief and lowered his voice, "Even the entire Tubo will be wiped out, and all of them will be included in the territory of our dynasty." ”

Guo Ziyi's attitude made Yang Guozhong very satisfied. But Guo Ziyi's words surprised him, Pei Mian and Gongsun Liang, and what a big appetite for the Tubo Sect...

For hundreds of years, the national policy of the Sui and Tang dynasties towards Tibet was nothing more than to moderately suppress the strength of Tibet on the basis of stabilizing border defense. Although there have been countless times of military use against Tibet, it is absolutely unique to say that the purpose is to destroy Tibet.

However, what the predecessors couldn't do, it may not be that the current new emperor Zhang Xuan can't do.

Thinking of Zhang Xuan's various eloquent talents, Yang Guozhong let out a sigh and sighed, "It's a small family who is angry, I don't know that Your Majesty has such grand plans." Of course, the extermination of Tibet is an unprecedented and unprecedentedly great cause, but how much money does it cost to complete it, and it is difficult for the national strength in the heart of the prime minister to support it. ”

That's why His Majesty issued an edict to promote commerce and trade, and even had the meaning of improving the status of merchants. Chen Xian smiled, "In the old man's opinion, His Majesty's ambition is difficult for our courtiers to guess." However, if we want to become strong and prosperous, it is inevitable to use troops everywhere, and this requires the strengthening of national strength. ”

'Take Tibet and get a lot of land. It can encourage fertility, increase the population, and promote commerce and trade. Chen Xian slowly got up and pointed to the map on the wall, and said loudly, "Not only Tubo, but also the ten states of Xiren in Dongyi are also thousands of miles of fertile fields, and they can also be immigrated to settle for reclamation...,"

'There are also the Western Regions, the Turks in Mobei..., the old man thinks that His Majesty will set the national policy of barbarians in the world again, so we might as well wait and see. ”

Chen Xian smiled and slowly sat back, "However, this can be put back." Now there are two things that matter to the imperial court

'Zaifu, please. Although Guo Ziyi respects Chen Xian, he holds his fists.

Pei Mian and Gongsun Liang also hugged their fists and jaws, "Zaifu, please speak." ”

Yang Guozhong glanced at Chen Xian, and was a little unconvinced. But the current situation is stronger than people, under the emperor's strong hand, Chen Xian is the head of the hundred officials, the leader of the seven phases, and the discussion of politics is based on Chen Xian, and he has no choice.

Chen Xian is such an old fritter, he knows that Yang Guozhong is not convinced, but he is not picky, and he said to himself, "First, the reward of Hui Hui." The Hui prince Gele led an army of 20,000 to help the war, and made great contributions to His Majesty's enthronement and emperor. The Hui Khan led the Hui army into the east of the river in Longshuo, and contributed to the destruction of Shi Siming's rebels. Therefore, the imperial court could not remain indifferent. ”

Yang Guozhong, hey, hey, one, "This is easy to say." The Hui people have always been a vassal country of our dynasty, and His Majesty has accepted Hui Gonggui, and it is reasonable to return to the Hui to help the war.

In Yang's opinion, it is better to give the Hui Khan Guli Peiluo a honorific title to show his honor. And the Hui prince Gele was sentenced to be the marquis of our dynasty and gave this gold and silver property to show his merits. ”

As soon as Yang Guozhong said, Guo Ziyi also nodded, "Yang Xiang's words are reasonable. ”

Pei Mian and Gongsun Liang also felt that it was appropriate, and they did not object.

Chen Xian saw that everyone was like this, so he smiled and said, "Okay, this matter has been agreed, and it will be judged by Your Majesty." ”

There is another matter, that is, how to settle the Li Tang royal family. Chen Xian's voice became muffled. 、

Everyone was silent.

This is indeed an imminent and very tricky matter.

The Li Tang royal family is currently gathered in the palace, waiting for disposal: and some clans are also closed in Chang'an, waiting for news of fate.

According to the 'experience' of previous dynasties, the new dynasty and the Japanese imperial family did not end well, and many of them were bloodily purged÷ and it is not new for the emperor to raise a butcher's knife against the Japanese imperial family in order to consolidate his power.

But whether Zhang Xuan will do this, everyone is uncertain.

Including confidants like Guo Ziyi, they can't figure out Zhang Xuan's true intentions.

But Li Heng and Li Yu can't always be confined in the palace, and sooner or later there will be an explanation to announce to the world. And coupled with the royal family of the clan, there are at least hundreds of thousands of people left behind in the Li Tang Dynasty

Chen Xian smiled bitterly, "Ladies and gentlemen, Your Majesty asked the old man to come up with a plan yesterday, but the old man felt that it was very tricky, so please speak freely." ”

Standing in the position of the new emperor, this Li Tang royal family is naturally to kill clean up and sweep away future troubles. However, if there is a large-scale killing, it will inevitably leave the new emperor with a name for brutality, and it is not a good thing for the newly established court.

But if you don't kill so many bloodlines of the Li Tang Dynasty, who knows if it will constitute a hidden danger in the future

So, it's hard for people to make decisions.

And even if there is a decision, it cannot be said. If Guizhang is killed, but once the emperor is infamous for the ages, they can't afford to be guilty: and if Guizhang doesn't kill, once someone rebels in the future, they will become sinners who condone the remnants of the previous dynasty.

Therefore, including Guo Ziyi, they were silent.

Chen Xian looked at everyone and frowned, "Everyone, we have received the grace of Your Majesty, and we should share your Majesty's worries." How to place the Li Tang royal family, please also ask you to give your advice and brainstorm. ”

Pei Mian sighed lightly, "Zaifu, this matter is really difficult to do." It is said that Li Yugui moved the edict to abdicate, and he should be given a way out. But in the future..."

'Kill it, it's a hundred! Yang Guozhong waved his hand fiercely.

Gongsun Liang subconsciously said, "No, never,"

Yang Guozhong sneered, stared at Gongsun Liang and said in a deep voice, "Why not, Lord Gongsun, you have received the kindness of the new emperor, you must consider your own position!" ”

Gongsun Liang's face turned red when he heard this, and he said in a trembling voice, "Gongsun Liang has received the emperor's grace and should die for His Majesty." It's just that since Li Yu issued the edict of abdication, he is credited to the new dynasty. Your Majesty established the country with virtue and martial arts, and it is absolutely impossible to leave a reputation for eternity! ”

Yang Guozhong was cold, and angrily reprimanded, "Gongsun Liang, you are so bold!" Dare to speak disrespectfully and disrespectfully to Your Majesty! ”

Gongsun Liang was put on such a hat by Yang Guozhong, he was frightened and uneasy, and the little thought he had to fight for the Li Tang royal family quickly came to naught.

He was originally Li Heng's confidant, and Li Heng's father and son treated him well, and there was still a little gratitude in his heart.
