Chapter 979: The Cool Officials Problem
"Text, so I need to work closely with that Mr. Ram of the Martial Family?" King Jiancheng asked first.
Li Zhi nodded:
"This person is not simple, not only because of his cultivation, or because he is a very important person next to the Queen Mother. With this cooperation in the first place, at least I have ensured that some of his controls are in my hands, and in my opinion, the coercion exerted on his realm is one thing, and this person may be interested in approaching me in order to get the opportunity to go to the cultivation realm with me in the future! ”
"I didn't expect such an unexpected surprise, in this way, isn't it like we planted a nail next to the Queen Mother?"
It was King Ming who showed a look of surprise, and it was clear that he quickly realized that something was unusual.
"But I don't plan to use this person's help, borrow his mouth, and convey some of our will to the Queen Mother, maybe to the maximum! Guy is not enough to trust me, at least for now, and don't even want to find out anything through him! ”
King Ming affirmed Li Zhi's cautiousness: "This is necessary, the Queen Mother is not easy to deceive the past." It's better to be careful. ”
"I didn't expect this anomaly to happen, but it ensured the smooth progress of the early construction of Chang'an City. Looking at this way before, I did ignore the effect of strong tactics before! ”
Although Taiwei Yu's thinking was a little conservative, he thought that behind the killing of nearly 200 people, he actually obtained this surprise unexpectedly, so he said this.
Together with Guan Lugong, the same idea is true:
"I didn't expect to exchange the lives of some young people for even if there is only one or two years of smooth development in Chang'an City."
For the two old men's consistent old-school style, only Lao Ming Wang dared to make fun of them directly:
"Speaking of which, the text is exercising his Shang Fang Sword's law enforcement power normally, you two old guys have only seen the adverse effects of the bloody qi, but they can't see through the invisible deterrent power behind it! Presumably before Wu Sansi arrived, you didn't give off your annoyance to the text, right? ”
The king of the building is lined with adding:
"Sometimes, appropriate murder is also a necessary means, otherwise it will be too weak, and it will only lead to more rampant oppression by the powerful, and if it goes on like that, it will only lead to war, even if it is only a partial act, it is also a disaster for the people!"
There was an obvious sigh in Taiwei Yu's tone:
"That's why I can only talk on paper all my life, and I have been in Hanlin Academy for most of my life! The lack of decision-making ability and some weakness in character lead to a sluggish approach. In this matter, the text is actually only aimed at some bold and reckless people, and what I thought at the time was that God has the virtue of a good life! ”
Guan Lugong replied:
"Yes, how can I not be like this, looking at this matter, thinking at that time, but there is a suspicion of raising tigers! This kind of tolerance is actually not much different from being an accomplice to the tiger! ”
"Your two old men are a little exaggerated, there is nothing wrong with being forgiving to any living being, but this matter is not beneficial to the development of Chang'an City because of the behavior of these people, so it has to be done!"
Li Zhi's humble remarks attracted frequent nods from the old Ming King: "And as a cultivator, if you don't have such a heart, it will be difficult to make a difference!" ”
Jiancheng Wang introduced the original topic:
"Text, I'm not as good as you! Although I agreed to come down yesterday, to be honest, I was still unwilling to do something for the surname Li. After you led Mr. Ram to me, I suddenly realized that there was such a way to protect the royal family! ”
There is absolutely no cleverness in the use of words in this sentence, and as the real first deputy commander of the military under one person and above ten thousand people, how can he not understand these truths.
The Eight Kings actually have the mentality of fighting against the water, or a kind of desperate reason to sacrifice their lives for benevolence.
He was born as a pure soldier, and he looked down on the brothers who lived and died the most, and one by one he fell with grievances.
I simply gave birth to a resolute desire to die with the enemy, and I didn't want to see those helpless disappointed eyes.
This is indeed a profound lesson taught by Li Zhi, just because of the appearance of the ram Junmao beside Wu Zetian.
If Li Zhi directly told him that there are no absolutes in the world, there is always a turning point.
Just as with this person's future cooperation, he will not only be looked down upon in the eyes of the Queen Mother.
What's more, combined with the plan proposed by Li Zhi after his return, it is entirely possible that it will be regarded as a benign evasion by the Wu Clan.
Just imagine, the forces in the army surnamed Li, which she was worried about, took the initiative to request to be transferred to Bianwu, which not only no longer posed a direct threat to the Wu family's imperial power, but also made the Tang Dynasty peaceful and peaceful.
This means that she can completely free up her hands to govern the world and implement the long-awaited hegemonic ambition in her mind.
Even if you are still not at ease in your heart, it is enough to start eradicating them one by one after the domestic situation has stabilized.
The key point will be that her imperial power is in her hands, and she is most tolerant of wind and grass, and a smooth transition is the best choice.
In this way, King Jiancheng's request for transfer is not only meritorious, but also a sign of loyalty that understands the king's will.
For the royal family surnamed Li, the first thing to protect the strength of the army is the primary premise, blindly resisting head-on, not necessarily not to mention the success, but also to cause chaos in the national situation, frequent wars, people suffering, and foreign enemies intruding.
As soon as the two things are combined, the king can be regarded as a real understanding of Li Zhi's good intentions.
Moreover, after the completion of the king to help Wu Zetian solve the urgent need, his status in the court and China will become more and more prominent, and under this premise, he can provide real help.
It seems to be a big step back, but it has obtained an infinite opportunity to turn around, and this kind of action is really to use wisdom to pave the way and think in the long run.
Even if Wu Zetian can see through the intention at a glance, in the current situation, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages for her, and on a certain level, this is an expedient measure for both sides.
Therefore, King Jiancheng will say the true feeling of "I am not as good as you".
This person's meeting is also what Li Zhi hopes to see the most, only when his own people work together, the so-called wisdom and strategy can be brought into play to the best effect.
"Because of the appearance of that ram Junmao, there will be a room for relaxation between us and Wu Sansi in the future! But Wu Sansi and Wu Chenghei can never be trusted, they belong to the same kind of people, and they are shameless flattering for the sake of Lilu, who can do anything! Therefore, perhaps we and the Ram Junmao deliberately develop a personal friendship appropriately, but we must not have the slightest political discussion! ”
Li Zhizhi's words aroused Guan Lugong's questioning: "Even if you know this, why do you allow this person to appear on your side?" ”
Li Zhining said repeatedly:
"With his cultivation strength, he will definitely be reused by Wu Zetian, and we will also use this person to appropriately convey some of the wishes of the surname Li. No matter whether it is good or bad, the Wu family also needs to have a contact channel, which she has the same psychology as us, in fact, she also has complete trust in the Wu family! In this way, there is a buffer between the two sides, even if there is only a limited line, the pressure on countless people will plummet! Maybe this kind of effect is not very significant for a while, but it will be a good thing to accumulate over a decade or twenty! ”
At present, no one takes his opinion lightly, and this is the true feeling after being repeatedly confirmed.
Therefore, no one discussed it too much, and after understanding the intention, it was enough to accept it all.
"As for the Ram Junmao, I still need to verify it further, but even if he can't be fully trusted, don't worry about his sinister intentions, because maybe he needs my help to enter the cultivation realm to extend his lifespan, there is no doubt about that. It is precisely because of this that he is the most reliable in transmitting the information between the two sides, so we can be as sincere as possible in the attitude of the people present towards this person in the future! For example, he may not dare to ask me to open up his needs for cultivation resources, but you can take the initiative to a limited extent, or cooperate with his own proposal! ”
"You mean, to use this to further woo this person?" Build a royal road.
Lao Ming Wang was the first to understand, and laughed and said:
"With the existence of our future empress, it is very unrealistic to want to completely win it over! The meaning of the text is that if you have access to this person, you can use the resources in the hands of the text to tempt him, which is both a kind expression and a request for yourself. The meaning of one's own needs is greater, such as rescuing someone through this person, or warning him about picking up someone with him, as a person around the Queen Mother, sometimes the role is more applicable than the Queen Mother herself! ”
Li Zhi nodded with a smile, and this topic will not be discussed:
"After this incident, although the martial arts power of Chang'an City has been greatly damaged, there are still a large number of hidden people in the secret, and our first task is to enhance Chang'an City's dominant position in the entire Tang economy as soon as possible before the change of dynasty. Those who have not yet emerged, as long as they do not interfere and obstruct, do not need to pay too much attention. ”
This sentence is aimed at King Jiancheng and King Xuan, in fact, the other people present no longer have much real power in their hands.
The reason why King Ming was persuaded by Li Zhi many times to give up his official position in Dali Temple was because of the cool official system implemented by Wu Zetian, which would cause bitter hatred among the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty in the following years.
If you don't actively cooperate, you will attract the dissatisfaction of the Wu family, and on the contrary, you will be criticized by more people.
In that way, the reputation of the third court lieutenant of the Ming Wangfu will be ruined from then on.
These truths King Ming has only recently come over, because at this time in Luoyang City, the cool official system has become monstrous.
If Wu Zetian wants to deal with the royal family that opposes her, he will have to use a large number of cool officials.
Because under normal circumstances, it is difficult to win down so many opposition members, and the cool officials have abnormal means.
She knew that the cool officer couldn't do anything, but the cool official could do whatever she wanted.
The cool official also knows the thoughts of the future empress, and he also knows that once the matter is over, he will not be reused, so he will play to his best when he is in office, make enough money, and then leave.
