Chapter 655: Those Kings
First of all, Li Fengji became ill and couldn't afford to get sick, Wang Shoucheng saw that he was not hit, so he immediately swept him out of the house, and then stepped on it fiercely. Wang Shoucheng blamed all the troubles since the Yamato on Li Fengji's head, and made Li Fengji, who was seriously ill, the biggest, the most incompetent, the most despicable, the most shameless, the most insidious, and the most vicious prime minister since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, and the degree of viciousness far exceeded the sum of Li Linfu and Yang Guozhong back then.
Li Fengji was demoted three levels in a row, and then demoted the next day, from Zhongshu Shilang and Tongzhongshu to Yazhou Sihu in one breath.
Li Fengji, who was seriously ill, heard the news, laughed twice, and didn't come up in one breath, and the new Yazhou Sihu of Datang died before he had time to take office.
Before his bones were cold, someone over there accused him of colluding with Tibet, which caused a big bad situation on the side, and asked him to be responsible for the killing of Lu Zhong, a famous general who was defeated by the Jingyuan army, so he was convicted of treason and rebellion, and killed the corpse in the coffin, confiscated the family property, confiscated his wife, and connected the nine clans.
When Li Fengji was in power, he relied on Wang Shoucheng to form a party in the DPRK and the central government, controlled the government's program, was arrogant and domineering, and did many evils, so he naturally hated people, but he ended up like this, even his political enemies felt that it was a bit too much.
Wang Shoucheng wanted to beat the seriously ill dog, shirk responsibility, get rid of the burden, and save a little impact, but he didn't expect it to backfire, but instead exposed his cruel and vicious nature.
As a result, his political enemies completely abandoned their illusions and were bent on fighting him to the end.
His protΓ©gΓ©s and the "new attached officials" were also saddened by the death of the rabbit and the fox, and their hearts were cold, and they were separated from morality one by one.
Jingzhao Shaoyin Zhengxun is one of them, he relied on Li Fengji's promotion to rise to the top, and he was still grateful to Li Fengji, and later saw that Li Fengji was about to fall, out of the desire to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, he climbed the high branch of Wang Shoucheng again, and wanted to use his power to go further.
But he didn't expect Wang Shoucheng to be so ruthless and ruthless to his old lord, and Li Fengji, who he single-handedly promoted, ended up like this, and what good fruit could he eat in the future after changing the court? The Jingzhao Shaoyin he did was in charge of the security power of the Jingshi Heavy Land, and the actual authority was still above the "Hundred Days Jingzhao", so how could there be more than one or two people offended? In order to appease these people, Wang Shoucheng could not guarantee that he would not be thrown out as a scapegoat one day.
The more Zheng Xun thought about it, the more he felt cold, he couldn't help but send two whining words after drinking, he woke up on the second day, Zheng Xun regretted everything, but it was difficult to collect the water, and it was difficult to take it back when he said it, he was anxious to turn around, and he didn't sleep all night, and he packed a generous gift and rushed to Wang Shoucheng's confidant Chen Hongzhi early in the morning, wanting to find out the news from him.
The greeting post was handed over, but Chen Hongzhi neither received nor accepted his gifts, on the grounds that there was too much time to do.
Zheng Xun was frightened, and quietly sent someone to investigate, and learned that Chen Hongzhi had not gone out all day that day, staying at home to watch singing and dancing, and suddenly felt that the sky had collapsed. Chen Hongzhi has always had a good relationship with himself, and he often has contacts, he obviously has time to watch singing and dancing at home, but why doesn't he see himself? There's a lot of work to be said about this! Moreover, Chen Hongzhi is greedy for money, and he dares to lick blood on the knife, if it weren't for Wang Shoucheng's determination to dispose of himself, how could he not accept his own gifts? He is afraid of implicating himself, it seems that his complaint has reached Wang Shoucheng's ears, he has already moved to kill, and his net worth is about to be lost.
Zheng Xun's panic was seen by a caring person, who quietly reported the matter to his lord.
That night, several guests came to the mansion of Li Chen, the king of light, Li Han, the king of Ying, and the three small county kings who were familiar with each other. King Li Chen is the son of Li Chun of Xianzong, ranking thirteenth, and Li Han, the king of Ying, is the son of Li Heng, the emperor of Muzong, and the younger brother of Li Han today.
The kings lived together in the sixteen kings' mansions in the northeast corner of Chang'an City, each with its own mansion, each with its own family property, and each with its own eunuchs, and their every move was under the control of these eunuchs. If there is no special incident, the eunuch will report the movements of the kings to the inner court every half month, and if there is a special incident, he will report it at any time.
The relationship between the kings is close and sparse, Li Chen and Li Han because of the separation of generations, and there is no dispute over inheritance, the relationship has always been passable, the two families often visit each other, and the eunuchs in prison are not strange, and they can't help but be a little lax.
In the middle of the banquet on this day, Li Han threw a look at the small county kings who accompanied him, and everyone coaxed the eunuch Wang Zhipu to pour wine, although the eunuch has the right to detain, but the status is only the slave of the palace, and now several county kings take turns to toast, how dare not eat, and want the kings to meet to eat and drink, it is not a big deal, and the amount is released for a while, and he is drunk and drunk.
Li Chen saw that the time had come, so he wanted to call Li Chen to talk outside, Li Chen pressed his hand, while telling him not to look around, while signaling to talk in the hall, there is more than one eunuch in the house, who knows if there are Wang Zhipu's eyes and ears? Everyone tried their best to get the eunuchs drunk, and the two princes hid outside to talk, how could it not make people suspicious? It is still convenient to speak in the hall, and as long as they are not listened to by their own ears, no one can do anything to them.
Li Han was impressed by his uncle's foresight, so he carried the wine jug and came over to drink with Li Chen without squinting. He told Li Chen a fresh joke, saying that a demon who called himself Dade Tianshi suddenly appeared in the Youzhou city of Li Mao, the king of Yan, and the bewitched people of the city became his believers, Li Mao was very angry, so he ordered the Youzhou place to arrest him, first sent three soap officials to go, and let people fight back before entering the door, and sent thirty archers to the second time, but the door went in, but did not come out, and all thirty people were converted. Li Mao was furious, sent three hundred pro-army to arrest him, the pro-army rushed into the temple to catch the demon, into the prisoner car and transported back to the Yanwang Mansion, the demon road went all the way and said all the way, but after arriving at the Yanwang Mansion, the three hundred pro-army all became his believers, surrounding Li Mao to ask for pardon for their master, otherwise they would rebel, Li Mao had no choice but to pardon the demon Dao, and pretended to invite him to a banquet, the result was good, the banquet ended Li Mao also converted to others, and was also named "the first protector of the law".
Li Chen laughed after hearing this paragraph, and said: "This is a work slandered by boring people, Li Mao is really so bad, he has already been in a different place, and my Datang is missing a scourge." Li Han smiled, and when he saw that the time was almost up, he lowered his voice and said, "The thieves are infighting, Zheng Xun can pull them over." β
Li Chen said: "He is in charge of thousands of Jingzhao Luo soldiers, and his status is important, you can handle this matter personally, and it must be done properly." β
Li Han said: "I will go tomorrow, and I will be rewarded." β
Li Chen said: "Don't go anywhere tomorrow, and go to him the next day." β
Li Han nodded, and said: "We need to hurry up outside, if the boat gang transports grain into Chang'an, we will be passive." β
Li Chen said: "Don't worry, I have a sense of proportion." β
After the two of them finished saying these words, they drank for a while and then dispersed, and the eunuch Wang Zhipu slept until dawn, and suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, calmed down, and hurriedly called a small eunuch placed outside the hall over, and asked: "After I got drunk last night, what abnormal behavior did they have?" β
The little eunuch said: "The two kings got together and told a joke, laughing at Li Taibao in Youzhou, and then they dispersed. β
Wang Zhipu asked: "How did you look when you spoke, but did you look around?" β
The little eunuch said: "I didn't look around, my demeanor was peaceful, King Ying said that joke, King Guang didn't laugh at him, he laughed first." β
Wang Zhipu breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Every time he says a joke, others are not happy, so he laughs at himself first." β
After saying this, the eunuch sent the little eunuch out, called his cronies, and instructed: "Follow our king, see where he goes, and send someone to the king of Ying tomorrow morning to ask where the king has gone today." β
Li Chen, the king of light, didn't go anywhere this day, got up early to practice swords, then read books, and then went to the back garden to prune flowers and trees, slept in the afternoon, and made the bed of the palace people had a **, after getting up and playing chess and poetry with two Qing guests, the princess sent people to invite after dark, not to go, read until late at night, and stayed in the study.
Yingwang Li Han slept until noon this day, got up and eaten, beat dogs and cats in the courtyard, took a pet Ji to Pingkang in the evening, drank a wine in a familiar prostitute, watched the newly rehearsed song and dance, and he also personally went down to guide the trick halfway, and returned to the house at the end of the time, and met Jingzhao Luo on the way, because Luo Shu stole his pet Ji, the king scolded, threatened to kill Luo Ji, and after returning to the house, he quarreled with the eunuch Liu Dafen, and slept with the pet Ji after bathing.
Everything is normal, there is nothing to doubt, Wang Zhipu, the eunuch of the Guangwang Mansion, put his heart down and wrote the conclusion of the word "peace" on the record.
