Chapter 2037: Loyalty? I don't understand!
Now it is a great chaos in the world, the people are panicking, the emperor is a symbol of the empire, representing everything, if the emperor falls at this time, the army does not know who to fight for, maybe the army will rebel.
Wu Meiniang must suppress this news.
Zhang Wenguan asked them again and again and confirmed that Li Zhi was in good health, but the old illness had recurred, and he could no longer deal with the government for the time being, so he breathed a sigh of relief and left the Liangyi Palace.
"Now Your Majesty can't handle the affairs of the court, it seems that you can only let the crown prince come up to supervise the regent."
Shangguan Yi said in a resolute tone.
When Liu Xiangdao heard this, he couldn't help but be full of worries: "But in this situation, I'm afraid the prince may not be able to bear this burden." β
Shangguan Yi immediately said sharply: "Liu Xiangdao, do you want to rebel?" β
Liu Xiangdao wanted to cry without tears and said: "I'm just a scholar, I have no power to restrain the chicken, how can I rebel?" β
Shangguan Yi said, "Then what do you mean?" The crown prince is the prince, and now that His Majesty is sick, you don't assist the prince, who do you plan to assist? β
"I...!"
Liu Xiangdao sighed.
Zhang Wenguan said: "Liu Zhongshu, although the prince is young, isn't there still us, as long as we unite as one and assist the prince, there will be no problem." β
Liu Xiangdao nodded.
......
Over there, Han Yi got into the carriage, and a smile suddenly flashed in his eyes, the old disease recurred? Hum! I don't think it's so simple, just Li Zhi's thin little body, if he doesn't return to the West, it's really unreasonable!
There was a soft thud.
But a hand prevented the door from closing.
Han Yi turned his head and saw the car door slowly open, and outside the car was Cui Jiji's angry face.
.....
In the suburbs, Cui's house in the bamboo forest.
"You all go out first, and no one is allowed to come in without my command!"
"Yes."
Cui Jijian gave an order, and the servants in the house immediately withdrew from the house.
Han Yi asked, "What secret matter are you going to discuss with me?" β
Bang!
Cui Jijian punched Han Yi directly in the face.
Exercise! Careless! Forget that a gentleman has six arts! Dad really helped me choose this name for nothing! Han Yi didn't expect Cui Jijian to make a move at all, and he was directly beaten and almost fell to the ground.
But Han Yi is actually a martial artist, although he usually doesn't do much, but he hasn't forgotten his fighting skills, after a short period of stunned, he flew up and kicked over, kicked Cui Jijian down here, rolled up his sleeves, pointed at Cui Jijian and scolded: "Bastard!" I've wanted to beat you for a long time! β
"Each other, each other."
Cui Jijian got up and pounced.
The two weak chickens suddenly scuffled, and if Yuan Vultures and Ono were here, they would probably fall asleep bored.
"Don't say it has nothing to do with you."
Cui Jijian grabbed Han Yi's collar and yelled.
Han Yi directly elbowed him, turned over and pressed it, pinched his neck, and said, "Are you crazy?" Is this something I can provoke? β
"Do you remember the crisis, you can say that you can't provoke it, but what about the facts? Do you think you can hide it from everyone? β
Cui Jijian said, suddenly raised his right foot, slammed Han Yi's back with his knee, and directly pushed Han Yi to the back of his head. He got up, roared, rushed over, and slammed Han Yi, who had just stood up, on the wall, and said: "I thought you were good for all of us, and that crisis was already the limit, but I didn't expect you to be so unconscionable, and you will not compromise to achieve your goals, Your Majesty has always treated you so kindly, you actually came up with such a plan, you are simply a beast." β
When Han Yi heard this, not only did he not fight back, but he put down his hand and laughed.
Cui Jijian was stunned for a moment and said, "What are you laughing at?" β
"I'm laughing at you for being so naΓ―ve!"
Han Yi smiled slightly and said, "When you said this, did you think about Li Daozong, did you think about Han Yin, did you think about coming over, did you think about the ministers and generals who were framed over the years, do they really all deserve to die?" Or do you think in your heart that this emperor executes the minister, regardless of whether it is right or wrong, it is all taken for granted, and it is worthy of forgiveness no matter what, and if we are a little disrespectful to the emperor, it is a great rebellion? It should be in a different place, everyone is raised by parents, why is our life so worthless. β
Cui Jijian was stunned when he heard this.
Han Yi waved his hand, blocked his arms, straightened his clothes, and said, "Your Majesty's recurrence of old diseases is not something I can control, you are purely spewing blood." But I am disappointed by your remarks. Yes, Your Majesty has the grace of knowing me, but I have also been doing my best to share His Majesty's worries, this is just an employment relationship, if I am not capable, will he use me? Does he care if I live or die? However, if I have the slightest displeasure with the Emperor, or if I have the power that the Shangshu Order deserves, do you think Your Majesty will let me go? I am despicable and shameless, and I have never said that I am a gentleman, but when it comes to this despicable and shameless, who in this world can compare to the emperor! β
Cui Jijian said: "Don't talk about the emperor, what about the people?" Do you know how many people will die in this war? β
Han Yi sighed and said, "Your father is not here, you really can't see through it!" Do you think this war could have been avoided? Haven't you seen through Your Majesty's character? Li Yifu did a lot of evil at the beginning, he could turn a blind eye, why, it was because the eldest grandson Wuji endangered his power, he had to rely on Li Yifu at that time, no matter what Li Yifu did or how many people were killed, he could tolerate it. The queen let go of such a big sin, he can also let the queen come out to preside over government affairs, why? Or is it because he wants to consolidate his imperial power, no one wants to get a little bit of power from him, and what he cares about most is not us, nor the people, but the chair under his ass.
So, you should understand that if we don't want to continue like this, then this war will inevitably start, if we don't fight the enemy, then we have to fight ourselves, if we fight ourselves, we will lose more, we will die more, and the enemy will fight us, and the situation will be even more chaotic than today. Fighting with the enemy, I have a lot less worries in my heart, we can still unite, and by the way, we can eliminate the enemy on the surface and in the secret, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone. β
Cui Jijian said: "In other words, are you sure to win this battle?" β
Han Yi smiled: "Of course, otherwise I would have run away earlier, how could I be alone with you here." Saying that, he touched the corners of his mouth, and said: "Moreover, don't be too arbitrary about war, Confucianism does not advocate war, it does not mean that war is bad, war is not necessarily a bad thing, every powerful empire rises in war, without exception, without war, it is impossible to be strong, this war our Datang will be richer and stronger, and our Datang will be sublimated in the war." β
Speaking of this, he paused, changed his words, and said: "But if that's the case, our Datang is just a pile of sand, and it may collapse in an instant, just like the Qin Empire, the chair has not been changed, but the head has been changed." It is conceivable how dangerous this is, so what we have to do in the future is to limit the imperial power, not to let this great country be in the hands of one person, in fact, we are very happy, alive in the reign of His Majesty, His Majesty is actually really a rare Ming Jun in the ages, but it is a pity that he is not in good health, but even so, he still governs the country in an orderly manner, but he will always die, but what if there is a Qin II? So what to do?
In fact, my purpose is very simple, that is, when I have no power and power, I can still live leisurely, without fear of retaliation, in fact, if I only retaliate against me, I don't care, just don't hurt my family, that's fine, but for now, is this possible? At the beginning, I just said a casual word, which did no harm, but I was forced to leave my hometown and separate from my wife. My brother kindly wanted to give two rabbits to your sister as a companion, but you beat them indiscriminately beyond recognition, don't you say that if Xiao Xiao did this at that time, you would still have such a heavy hand, you were a dog who looked down on people at that time. β
"You're really holding a grudge!" Cui Jijian snorted.
Han Yi snorted: "There are some things I will never forget, if it wasn't for Wuyi explaining the reason to me, hmph, you think you can be a key minister now, you would have been sent to Lingnan a long time ago, in terms of family, I am a very stingy person, this has never changed, but I also had this bad breath just now, we don't owe each other for this matter." "Actually, he still took advantage of it, after all, he was much more experienced than Cui Jiyi.
Cui Jijian closed his eyes and sighed, and said, "Even if I am wrong, no matter how reasonable you are, you can't let so many people die because of this." β
Han Yi said: "Then you give me a way to be immortal?" I still have room to go, if it were the emperor, they would do whatever it took to keep the power in their hands, would they care how many people died? I'm afraid there will be more deaths, in the last battle of the Sui Dynasty, seven or eight out of ten people died in the Central Plains, I believe that no matter how difficult this battle is, it is impossible to die so many people.
In addition, at this moment, His Majesty, dragged down by his body, has no ambitions, and all his focus is now on succession, and often when this kind of power is alternated, there will always be a lot of people who are demoted or killed, not because of disloyalty, but because the emperor is not at ease, if he is not at ease, you have to die, this is the reality, we are actually facing the danger of life now, as long as we take a wrong step, we may be like Li Daozong, the eldest grandson Wuji, they will become ruined. For me, of course, it's better for him to die than for me, it's as simple as that. β
This is indeed cold-blooded, but think about it the other way, who has the emperor cold-blooded, and a person like him, it is impossible to be loyal to the emperor, because he is from time to time, the whole world used to run around, he did not have the gene of "loyalty" in his body, he was most loyal to himself, these words came out of his mouth, it is very normal, not to mention Li Zhi, even if he lives in Li Shimin's era, choose one of the two, he will not hesitate to choose Li Shimin's death, instead of what "usually talk about his heart and mind, and report the king when he dies". Bullshit! He doesn't care what kind of Khan or Mingjun you are, everyone is raised by your parents, why!
Cui Jijian was stunned for a while, suddenly smiled bitterly, leaned his back against the wall, and said, "You can always use strong words." β
Han Yi said: "It's not because I'm strong, but because I'm honest, I said what you thought in your heart, but you didn't dare to say it." β
This is true, in fact, Cui Jijian saw the disadvantages of this system very early, because he lived in the transition period from the aristocratic emperor ruling the world to the emperor ruling the world alone, as a nobleman, of course he would think, which system is better, he also saw many ministers, killed and demoted, not everyone deserves to die, many of them are for the good of the emperor, for the good of the country, including when the kings were fighting for Chu, Li Shimin also killed many ministers, he rubbed his face vigorously, and said: " Why are you telling me this today, is there no one who can stop you? β
Han Yi smiled and said, "Of course not, but it's just the two of us here, what am I afraid of?" If you have proof, go and sue me, and see who will believe you? β
Cui Jijian was stunned for a moment, and smiled helplessly: "Yes! You always do things without leaks, and it's hard to believe it. β
Han Yi said: "Otherwise, I won't be able to live for so long, it's okay to have no one in this world, and the emperor can't do without me." β
Cui Jijian said: "Then what should we do next?" β
Han Yi said with a smile: "Of course, you will fight with all your might, as long as you remember what is beneficial to the country, then do what you do, there will be no mistake, of course, if you are like Zhang Wenguan and them, you will always put Your Majesty in the forefront, then no matter how you think about it, it will be wrong." β
Cui Jijian laughed and said, "Amazing! Terrible! That's what you are best at, you don't have to tell people how to do it, they will follow your direction. β
No way, who made me an old man! Han Yi said with a smile: "Pass the award, pass the award, it's not too early!" I'll take my leave! β
"Wait!"
Cui Jijian said: "Can I doubt that your ultimate goal is for you to sit on it yourself." β
The corners of Han Yi's mouth raised, and he smiled contemptuously: "If that's all it is, then this game is much simpler and easier, and I don't need to spend so much energy at all." So saying, he departed.
After coming out of Cui's house, as soon as he came out of the bamboo forest, he heard a banging sound, and then heard several screams.
Han Yi's face tightened, he quietly pushed the window open a crack, looked out, immediately rolled his eyes, and opened the car door, only to see that his several Kunlun slaves were all blue and swollen, much more terrifying than his face, and they all shrank around the carriage, swearing to protect their masters. Han Yi looked up at the uncle in front of him, "Uncle, can you tell me that there are still a few masters like you in this world, and I am going to kill them all." β
Yuan Vulture saw Han Yi, suddenly swallowed, took a small step back, and a pair of eagle eyes showed a rare look of fear, and said: "I don't know this, but I know that there is no one in this world who is more terrible than you." β
