Chapter 2 The system is dumb
"Hey, what kind of system is that, you're talking?" After waiting for a long time without a sound, Li Ji finally couldn't help but ask.
There was no response.
As the memories of this body gradually merged, Li Ji cried, tears rolling down his cheeks.
If you don't play like this, it's not good to cross into someone, but you have become the last emperor Li Ji.
Who doesn't know that the last years of the Tang Dynasty are already an unsolvable deadlock, and no matter how good you are, you can't counterattack and turn the tables.
The current end of the Tang Dynasty has rotted to the bones, the feudal towns are divided, and the state has no thorn history and no county commander. The grassroots organizations have been completely replaced by warlords, and the central government's jurisdiction over the localities has been completely paralyzed, and local affairs are mostly handled by these divided feudal towns.
What's worse is that he has become a puppet, and the one lying in the coffin is his father Tang Zhaozong Li Ye. He was killed by Zhu Wen's sword, and it won't be long before he will give way to Zhu Wen, and then he will be returned to the West by a glass of poisoned wine. Anyway, I also brought a system, who knew that the system would be dumb after only a few words.
His Royal Highness was overly sad and wept in front of the coffin, which shows His Highness's benevolence and filial piety. Please also ask Your Highness to mourn and inherit the unification on the same day. A general walked over and said indifferently.
Li Ji recognized him, Jiang Xuanhui, this guy was one of the executioners who killed his father.
The person who spoke was Zhu Wen's subordinate general and privy envoy Jiang Xuanhui, who was the one who broke into the palace with Shi Tai, the official of Xuanlong Wu, and killed his own father, that is, Zhaozong Li Ye in the coffin.
"Your Royal Highness, please mourn, the emperor died violently. He left an edict and made His Highness king. Saying that, Jiang Xuanhui took out a decree from his arms:
"Under the door, the foundation of the world... The Ninth Emperor Son, Li Ji, is generous and is the choice of the general unification of the society. From now on, he will succeed to the emperor's throne, consult the old ministers, and serve the emperor and the Baoning state. The proclamation is far and wide, and the envoy is aware of it. ”
After Jiang Xuanhui finished reading the edict, he glanced left and right. The surrounding guards knelt down to welcome Li Ji to the throne: "Long live Your Majesty, long live!"
Li Ji wants to die, what kind of emperor is this. It's just a puppet, powerless, unpleasant to say, and someone is watching you when you.
Everyone knows that this edict is fake, but Jiang Xuanhui ordered himself to succeed to the throne according to Zhu Wen's wishes.
Li Ji understood that the reason why Zhu Wen chose to be the emperor was because he was young and easier to control.
As a matter of fact, the current DPRK and China have long been under Zhu Wen's world. Except for the vassal kings in various places and a few old ministers in the court, who can still make Zhu Wen a little jealous, he is now doing whatever he wants.
How to avoid the fate of being poisoned three years later, Li Ji really has no good way. He searched his stomach and thought about the puppet emperors who counterattacked in history, but found that there were none.
Except for Kangxi in the early Qing Dynasty, but Kangxi is different from himself. Ao Bai is only a powerful minister at best, the world is still in the hands of Aixinjue Luo, and Kangxi has a lot of bargaining chips to bring down Ao Bai.
It's different for me, and I'm still a dumb person when I get a system. There is no one in the palace and outside the palace that he can trust, and these people around him are Zhu Wen's eyeliner. The world has long been Zhu Wen's, except for the two eunuchs, Fuquan and Youwei.
Fuquan and Youwei grew up with him since childhood, and these two are quite loyal to themselves. What's the use of loyalty, these two are just eunuchs with no power at best.
Li Ji secretly warned himself in his heart: I can live! I can live! I am a time-traveling person in the 21st century, I want to live with my own wisdom, and I want to pass on the society of Datang.
If you want to counterattack, the only option at the moment is to pretend.
Pretending to be stupid and stunned, pretending to be unconscious and pretending to be brainless. Let Zhu Wen feel that he is not a threat to him, and then secretly cultivate his own power.
Of course, this is a risky move, because you don't know who is loyal to the Tang Dynasty and who is a traitor. Even those who are loyal to the Tang Dynasty want them to cater to Zhu Wen on the surface. When the right time comes, we will work together to destroy this traitor and regain their country.
The ideal is very plump, and the reality is very skinny. Secretly cultivating forces is a technical job, and if you accidentally leak the secret of heaven, it will lead to total destruction, and your own life will be lost. So, we have to be very cautious in this matter.
Since you have already made this puppet emperor, then accept your fate and follow them to play this scene.
So Li Ji smiled, he smiled and walked to Jiang Xuanhui and gently helped him up, Li Ji was moved: "Jiang Aiqing please hurry up, since the father and the emperor have ordered the child to be the son of heaven, then the palace has to be reluctant." Jiang Aiqing assisted me with great merit, and I will definitely be greatly rewarded. ”
Who knew that Jiang Xuanhui hurriedly bowed down and said: "The minister is dead, and the minister doesn't dare to be rewarded, and this has to listen to the meaning of King Liang." King Liang is the pillar of my Tang Dynasty and the pillar of the society. ”
The King of Liang he said was Zhu Wen, and Zhu Wen at this time had been given the name Zhu Quanzhong by Tang Zhaozong.
Li Ji was excited, and hurriedly patted his forehead: "What Jiang Aiqing said is extremely true. Without the support of King Liang, how could I be where I am today. Come! Reward the King of Liang, and King Liang is the third duke, the master and the master! ”
No one responded, this new emperor is not a fool. Your emperor is just a puppet, when will it be your turn to speak.
Sure enough, Jiang Xuanhui said: "Your Majesty, the matter of rewarding still needs to be decided by King Liang."
This is really faceless, but at this time, Li Ji has no power and no power, so he can only hold his tail: "What Jiang Aiqing said is that I am confused." I am still young, and everything is up to King Liang. ”
Li Ji only now understands how difficult his situation is, he is only the emperor in name only, and he does not have any substantive rights. If you want to counterattack, it is tantamount to ascending to the sky.
Zhu Wen didn't come, he seemed to be fighting everywhere, after all, the world is now rising together. It's the end of August, and Zhu Wen won't be able to return to Luoyang until a month later.
One month! Li Ji chuckled in his heart. The Zhu Wen rebel has a month to come back, so why not take this opportunity to win over the ministers in order to achieve great things.
In history, Li Ji was just a yellow-mouthed kid who had no opinions, and he knew what to do. There is a reason why Zhu Wen made him emperor, if not, why didn't he set up the younger Li Yu and Li You's two sons.
In other words, Zhu Wen knew that Li Ji couldn't set off any strong winds and waves in the more than one month that he was away.
Now it's different, Lao Tzu won't sit still and wait for you to deliver poisoned wine. Therefore, after returning to the palace, Li Ji immediately recruited his two little eunuchs, Fu Quan and Youwei.
Fuquan is timid and difficult to entrust with big things. If you are promising, you are more flexible, so Li Ji found him: "Youwei, I am better off than dead in this day." Go out of the palace at once, go to the houses of the ministers, and tell them that I will summon them tonight. Here's the list, remember, be careful and don't let anyone find out. ”
Youwei's surname is Sun, and Sun Youwei. The truth of the tree falling and scattering is well understood, and if the emperor is unlucky, he will also suffer. So Youwei nodded, looked around at no one, and carefully carried the list into his arms.
At this moment, the three of them are hiding in the Ming'an Palace, and the so-called Ming'an Palace is just an ordinary stone house. After Zhu Wen forced Zhaozong to move the capital to Luoyang, this palace was built in a hurry, where is there still half a point of royal majesty.
Li Ji used the excuse to support the surveillance around him, and asked Fuquan to control the wind at the door, so that Youwei was dragged to the Ming'an Palace to teach secrets.
Suddenly, Li Ji's scolding and scolding voice came from the Ming'an Palace: "Dog slave! I said that I just want to eat the sugar cake outside the palace, and if you can't get it back, I will kill you! ”
Immediately afterward, there were beatings and begging for mercy from inside the house.
"Your Majesty forgives your sins, Your Majesty spares your life. This sugar cake can be made by the imperial kitchen, why does Your Majesty have to go out of the palace to buy it? ”
"Something like a dog! Hugh is going to deceive me. The Emperor once brought me back this kind of sugar cake from outside the palace, which was more than 100 times more delicious than the imperial kitchen. After eating a piece, I have a lot of energy, and it is not difficult to go up to the sixth floor in one breath. Hurry up and buy it for me outside the palace today, if it's too late, I'll break your dog's leg! ”
Then there was the sound of fists hitting the flesh, and Youwei almost crawled out of the Ming'an Palace. His eyes were black, and his clothes were torn in several places.
Youwei climbed out of the Ming'an Palace, crying and walking out.
"Stop, what's going on?" Two guards blocked the way.
Youwei sobbed and choked: "Two big brothers, Your Majesty wants to eat sugar cakes outside the palace, you heard it just now."
The guards didn't appreciate it: "Without King Liang's order, you can't wait to leave the palace."
