Chapter 45: Coincidences (Part 1)
The conditions required for the latter are extremely harsh, and the need for several generations is the approval of dozens of generations of rulers. When the ruling class builds a system, it needs a guiding ideology and means of rule, and it will be canonized.
Imperial power needs "rites" to be consolidated, so that the usurper has to bear the social risk of exceeding the rites, and simply put, legitimacy is difficult to gain the support of the same class.
The reason why Li Shimin stumbled was that he went through the painful period of a few years before the reform. One is that he did not have the facts to usurp the throne, after all, he killed the prince and the prince; Second, regardless of whether the "succession" is true or not, Li Yuan is still alive; Third, he gave political power to the landlord and gentry class, allowing them to taste the sweetness.
Therefore, no matter how many remnants of the former enemy are, they will not be able to make waves.
But if political power is ceded, it will inevitably lead to strife. Dogs compete for food, and there are always dead and wounded. Wen Yanbo, the representative of the Beidi Shi clan, needs to manage external activities, so he has his own opinions.
The banner is very simple - "benevolence".
In general, the Huairou policy is a peaceful line, which is extremely attractive to the scholars who have a constant birth. Only by honestly cultivating the land on their own territory can they continue their huge family.
Therefore, when someone opposes Wen Yanbo, it is against Huairou, it is belligerent, it is against "benevolence", in short, it is unkind.
From the center to the locality, this is in the same line, and the right to speak is in their hands. Those who can talk about one case and draw inferences from the other, and all of them are children of the Five Sects and Seven Hopes, similar to the big clans.
Therefore, the eldest grandson Wujian is out of the mentality of wooing Zhang De, so that Li Dong treats Zhang De's relatives well. Li Shimin has deeper considerations, and chases down the wheat iron rod, which is very important for stabilizing Bashu, Jingxiang, and Jiangdong.
After all. Mai Tiecane held an umbrella for the emperor of the Chen Dynasty that year, and after Chen's demise, Yang Su rebelled, and he was even more famous first. Thirty slashes with one sword, and under Yang Su's command, there is only one iron rod.
However, the official status of the Mai Iron Staff in the Sui Dynasty. It's nothing, what really moves people is that although he doesn't know a single big word, he knows loyalty. After dying in Liaodong, Yang Guang, who had always been kind, ransomed his corpse. Among the people who came out of the funeral and carried the coffin, there was Yu Wenshi and his father Yu Wenshu.
The funny thing is that his brother later killed Yang Guang in Jiangdu. And Mai Tiecane's eldest son, Mai Mengcai, failed to avenge Yang Guang and went with his father.
Therefore, it doesn't matter whether it is before or after the development of the wheat iron rod. Jiangnan went from Shilin to a pawn, and his evaluation was extremely high.
If you are a good man in Jiannan Road, you will have to pay a visit to Mai's hall when you pass through Shaozhou. And the rangers on the Yangtze River who beg for a life are to worship the Iron Cane Temple in Jingxiang.
It's just that this iron rod temple has no explanation, and it is even a bit of a green forest, so that the local government. Not recognized. However, in line with the principle that more is better than less, it is also the people's failure to raise officials and not to hold them accountable.
Zhang De's idea. That's it. Since Wen Yanbo did not allow him to chase the seal, and he also had the strength to prevent the emperor from operating, then Lao Zhang could only make a detour.
Even if he can't get into Guan Yu's status, at least it is very helpful to unite the hearts of people from all over Jiangnan.
Zhang De wanted to do this out of selfishness, just to do something for Uncle Tan. The rod of wheat does not matter the past and present life. It's too far away from him.
It's a pity that Zhang Gongjin doesn't have such a strong team to push this matter, and the position of the governor of Xiangdu is far from enough.
Wen Yanbo went from the imperial court to the locality, from Guannei Road to Hebei Province, and there were countless alliances in the open and in the dark. Including Fang Qiao's vinegar jar Mrs. Maiden's maiden house. If nothing else, it is also Wen Yanbo's ally.
Whoever holds the stick of political correctness, who speaks!
Zhang Lishou and Zhang Lihai took their former comrades to Beili to play a lap and came back, Zhang De and Fang Xuanling were still discussing, and occasionally Fang Qiao shouted loudly, looking a little excited.
It wasn't until he was ugly that Zhang De bowed down to Fang Xuanling and said, "Fang Gong, please." ”
"Don't take care of this, remember!"
"Yes, De keep it in mind."
After speaking, Zhang De hugged his fists towards Fang Yu and said, "Brother, farewell." ”
"the virtuous brother and walk slowly."
"Stay."
Zhang Lishou and Zhang Lihai, who were napping in the gatehouse, cheered up and led the horses to follow.
Zhang De pondered as he walked, if this matter was handled well, Li Shimin would definitely be satisfied. Although the wheat iron rod is not as much as Guan Yu, the word "loyalty" has great lethality to the emperor. As the first emperor of the ages, Li Shimin will not fail to see this.
The problem is that Li Dong, as the emperor, cannot be promoted from the top down. It must be "the will of the people", and then someone in the court will play, and then "I will comply with the will of the people".
The process, that's how it goes.
But how big to play, how to play, whether it is enough to make Wen Yanbo shut up, still needs to be discussed.
After a day off on Qixi Festival, the eldest grandson Wujian, who was still recuperating, heard that the matter of chasing the wheat iron rod had not been passed in the outer court, and when Li Dong came to see her, he asked: "This is a trivial matter, how did it get here?" ”
"Yang Guang warns me also."
Empress Eldest Sun was extremely intelligent, and immediately understood, and frowned slightly: "How can others be allowed to snore on the side of the couch?" Don't the ministers know? ”
"I don't know, I really don't want to."
Li Dong's eyes were cold, but he sneered in his heart, Liaodong must be taken, and Goguryeo must also perish, otherwise, Hebei He'an?
The four words of merit are not written with the head of the pen, but typed out with the head of the gun.
There are still some people in the court who have a lot of complaints about the imperial examination, but because of the posthumous sealing of the wheat iron rod, Li Shimin is more determined to improve the imperial examination system, and at the same time is ready to further promote the southern scholars to balance the five doors and seven hopes.
"It's a pity, it's a pity, this matter can make Zhang Caozhi owe Erlang a favor." The eldest grandson shook his head lightly, and had another plan, "Since the matter of chasing the seal, since it is difficult, it is better to imitate the story of Qin Zhao Wang Shu County Taishou, why not have a similar Erwang Temple?" ”
Li Dong's eyes lit up, Li Bing's father and son controlled the water, and Shu Di even respected him as the god of the river. Since it is not easy to do the chase, it is not bad to find another way.
And Li Dong remembered the matter of the Wenxuan Wang Temple, and actually muttered: "There is a Confucian Temple, but there is a Wu Temple?" ”
Thinking of this, Li Dong smiled, then stood up, stood with his hands in his hands, and paced back and forth to ponder. The Temple of Literature made the scholars very satisfied and supported him even more. If there is a martial temple, the head of the Guan Long army, who has completely lost power, will also be somewhat comforted. And the military celebrities who support him will support him even more.
Compared with Wenchen, there are more generals from the Shu clan.
"Hmm......"
Li Dong had a rough outline in his mind, and then said to the eldest grandson: "Guanyin is really my women's room." ”
"Erlang has a plan?"
"I still have to think about it."
Then Li Dong suddenly said: "Drive the Wei State Mansion." (To be continued......)
