Chapter 076: Yang Guozhong's Era (First Vote)

Yu Zhen shook his head and chuckled indifferently, "It is said that Zhang Xuan, this little guy is really bold. insulted Li Linfu in public before, but this time he did not hesitate to offend Yang Guozhong. The two Datang Zaifu, he didn't pay attention to it - Bengong sometimes felt surprised, where did he get such a big ambition leopard guts? ”

Cui Yingliu raised her eyebrows lightly and said worriedly, "Mother, Ying'er thinks he is not the kind of shallow and impulsive person. Not to mention Li Linfu's affairs, this time he refused Yang Guozhong's kindness, it was nothing more than that he was unwilling to worship Yang Guozhong's disciples, and disdained to be with Yang Guozhong and others. It's just that he offended Yang Guozhong like this, I'm afraid it's ......"

"Disdain to be with Yang Guozhong...... Yu Zhen pondered for a moment and nodded, "With Zhang Xuan's temperament, this is possible." But no matter what, this Yang Guozhong is more rogue and difficult than Li Linfu, and if he provokes him, Zhang Xuan will have to suffer in the future. ”

"He refused to worship Yang Guozhong, blocking this road, how can he become an official in the future? As long as Yang Guozhong is in the future, he will have no chance. ”

"That's it, Ying'er, you don't have to worry. This time, Hongu will come forward. I believe that Yang Guozhong will not give this palace this thin face. ”

Yu Zhen looked at Cui Ying with a smile, "This palace will come forward in person, together with the Cui and Zhang families, to set a wedding date for you and Zhang Xuan as soon as possible...... and then made it public, which is regarded as building momentum for him. ”

"However, after getting married, Ying'er, you have to persuade this little guy more, and don't be too opinionated in everything...... It is gratifying to have a proud bone, but it is not feasible to be too proud. ”

Cui Ying was overjoyed, Xia Fei lowered her cheeks, slowly lowered her head and said softly, "It's annoying to worry about my mother." ”

……

……

Princess Yuzhen personally came forward to coordinate the Cui and Zhang families, and agreed on the marriage date for Zhang Xuan and Cui Ying - March 3 of the twelfth spring of Tianbao. And at the regular banquet of Yuzhenguan held next, the news was officially announced. At the same time, it was also announced that when Zhang Xuan and Cui Ying got married, the emperor or the concubine Niangniang would personally attend the wedding for the two.

If Princess Yuzhen accepted Cui Ying as her righteous daughter before, she faintly became one of the backers standing behind Zhang Xuan, but this time, she single-handedly handled the negotiation and announcement of Zhang Xuan and Cui Ying's marriage, which undoubtedly really went to the front from behind the scenes.

Cui Ying is her daughter-in-law, and Zhang Xuan is her godson-in-law.

This has set off a small "storm" in Chang'an City. Princess Yuzhen Li Zhiying is not an ordinary princess, she is the sister of the current emperor Li Longji, she has always had a very close relationship with the emperor, and her grace is incomparable, which is not comparable to Li Longji's daughters who are married or have not yet married.

Of course, Princess Yuzhen's visit was mainly for Yang Guozhong.

Yang Guozhong saw that Yuzhen was obviously sheltering Zhang Xuan, and he was annoyed, but he was helpless.

However, in his opinion, as long as he Yang Guozhong is still in the court, Zhang Xuan will definitely have no chance to become an official again, and there will be more opportunities to rectify Zhang Xuan in the future.

First, under his secret suppression, no matter who among the courtiers recommended Zhang Xuan as an official, he would not be successfully approved; Second, as the host and manipulator of Chunqiu, Zhang Xuan's hope of advancing through the imperial examination has actually been wiped out.

asked for a "boring" from Zhang Xuan, and Yang Guozhong threw all his anger on Li Linfu and his party.

He was born in the market and was very single, and once he took off his mask, he became very arrogant and direct. Impatient, he no longer looked for any objective reason to charge Li Linfu with "rebellion", and directly wrote a letter to denounce Li Linfu for bringing disaster to the country and the people.

Yang Guozhong was in power, and his attitude affected the attitudes of many courtiers and officials of the world's feudal towns. For a time, the ministers, magistrates, and generals of various provinces and towns also went to the table, counting the ten sins of Li Linfu who brought disaster to the country and the people...... The crowd was full of emotion, pointing directly at Li Linfu, who had not been dead for a long time.

Not only was Li Linfu participated, but Li Linfu's former henchmen were also directly included in the list of Yang Guozhong's thunderous means to crack down on eradication.

For half a month, almost every day, Li Linfu and his party officials were dismissed and demoted, and even sent to prison on trumped-up charges, such as Xu Qiao, the former confidant of Li Linfu, who was the first to be pulled off by Yang Guozhong.

A strong political turmoil swept the entire Tang Dynasty, the reshuffle of central power kicked off, and the people in Chang'an City were panicked, and everyone in the civil and military courtiers was in danger.

In order to calm the hearts of the people, and also to appease Yang Guozhong, Li Longji had to issue an order to cut off Li Linfu's title and gift, strip off the crown and brocade robe, confiscate the Li family's property, ****** Linfu's son and son-in-law to the official position, and be hastily buried with common rituals.

At the same time, the heirs of the Li family (Li Linfu has twenty-five sons and twenty-five women), Li Linfu's sons - such as Li Xiu, who will be the supervisor, Li Wei in the Si Chu Langzhong, Li Yu in Taichang Shaoqing, etc.; Son-in-law Honglu Shaoqing Zhang Boji, household member Wailang Zheng Ping, right fill Que Du position, counsel doctor Qi Xuan, Jingzhao Mansion household Cao Yuan...... Those who were exiled from their hometowns were exiled from their hometowns, and those who were dismissed from office for the people were dismissed from office for the people, and they left Chang'an in embarrassment.

Less than half a year after Li Linfu's death, the Li family, which had been prominent for decades, fell to the tragic end of a person's death and annihilation.

As a result, for the Tang Dynasty court, the era of Li Linfu officially came to an end, and the era of Yang Guozhong arrived.

Yang Guozhong's power soared to the sky, and he reached the peak for a while. In Chang'an City, no one in the Yang family dares to provoke them anymore, even if they are members of the royal family, when they see the Yang family traveling, they have to secretly retreat.

Yang Guozhong is rash and impatient by nature, speaks strongly, and has no grace. Now that he is in power, he regards national government affairs as his own business, and he is bold and resolute in judging major matters. In the court, he was angry, rolled up his sleeves and waved his fists, and with the momentum of hooligans fighting, he commanded the ministers, civil and military officials, and no one in the court was not afraid.

Yang Guozhong, with this posture and way of being a hooligan in the market, stabilized his power and established his authority in the shortest possible time, which made Zhang Xuan a little speechless.

The so-called "dogs have dog paths, cats have cat paths", Yang Guozhong does not have Li Linfu's scheming and scheming, but he has his own special means. As long as the emperor does not interfere, he will still play the role of a political hooligan without hesitation.

……

……

In mid-October, there was a sudden heavy rain in Chang'an City. After this heavy rain, the temperature began to drop, and the cold wind swept across the city, as if to indicate that the upcoming winter of the eleventh year of Tianbao was a bitterly cold winter.

Before the arrival of winter, the father and son finally arrived in Beijing to plead guilty to the emperor. The emperor issued an edict to pardon Absi, gave him a mansion and ordered him to retire in Chang'an, and appointed his son Asna as the general of Zhonglang and the envoy of Hexi soldiers and horses, and led his troops to be stationed on the periphery of Liangzhou.

Although Yang Guozhong was dissatisfied, under the emperor's deterrence, he could no longer obstruct it.

This is obviously to keep Arbus in the capital as a hostage. However, for the Arbus father and son, this was already the best outcome. Although Absi was not allowed to leave Chang'an City for the rest of his life, the glory and wealth of the second half of his life were preserved. Moreover, more than 10,000 of his troops and tens of thousands of people were still handed over to his son Asna to command, and the emperor did not take away the military power of Ashi, which is the thing that Abs and his son are most grateful for.

Of course, the biggest winner was not Abs, but Abs's son Asna.

These days, Zhang Xuan rarely goes out, except for occasional gatherings with Pei Hui, he hardly participates in any public activities of Chang'an's high society, and Zhang Xuan can rarely be seen at the banquets of those powerful people.

It wasn't until Princess Yuzhen held a "pressure banquet" for Absi and his son that Zhang Xuan was invited to attend.
