Chapter 1778: The End of an Era (II)
In the seventeenth year of Zhenguan, that is, the eighteenth year of Li Chengqian's arrival in the Tang Dynasty, the Shangyuan Dynasty Meeting was held as scheduled.
After the hundred officials worshipped, and after the mountain shouted long live, the old man looked solemnly at the black head below, and finally positioned his gaze on a rickety figure: "Wei Zheng, is your body better?" ”
"Back to Your Majesty, Your Majesty...... It's better! Wei Zheng stood up tremblingly, as if he was falling down as soon as the wind blew.
This old man has been sick for a long time, and he didn't pay attention to the government at all in the past, but today he appeared unexpectedly, which made Li Shimin really a little confused.
However, there are no absolutes in the world, maybe this old Wei is really a little good, maybe it's not sure.
Listening to Lao Wei's explanation, Li Er saw that his gaze moved into the distance, looking at the outside of the main hall, there was quite a sense of things being right and wrong, and the vicissitudes of life.
Seventeen years ago, when he first came to the throne, there were Turkic invaders outside the entire Tang Empire, and there were locust plagues and floods inside.
And now the Tang Dynasty is rich and strong, and it is already the overlord of this continent, and the existence of a call for the world not to obey is held, and many officials even need to set off from their fiefdoms two months in advance to arrive in Chang'an on schedule.
It's different, it's really different, maybe it's the only way to deserve the title of 'Heavenly Khan'!
Li Shimin's eyes narrowed slightly, enjoying the countless apprehensions and ...... below.
And what? Li Er felt a little indescribable, for some reason, he always felt that this time the dynasty would look a little weird.
And at this time, Wei Zheng, who had just come out, trembled and suddenly knelt down, touched the ground with his forehead, and said in his mouth: "Your Majesty, the old minister has a matter, don't vomit or be unhappy." ”
"Tell me!" Li Shimin took a deep look at Wei Zheng, who had shrunk into a ball, and his face became serious.
"Your Majesty, since you ascended the throne in the ninth year of Wude, it has lasted ten years and seven years, destroying the Turks, leveling Liaodong, suppressing Tibet, and breaking the Western Regions, and the merit is comparable to the three emperors and five emperors. However, everything cannot be done, although Your Majesty's 'martial arts' and 'merits' are world-famous, but you must also ....... ”
"Wei Zheng, what do you mean! Make it clear to me! Wei Zheng's words were only halfway through, and Comrade Lao Li couldn't listen to it anymore, and there was an incomparably chill in his voice as his face sank like water.
However, Lao Wei, who was lying on the ground, did not hesitate, Lao Li's words just fell, but he heard his voice coming slowly: "Minister, I want to ask Your Majesty to be located in His Royal Highness the Prince!" ”
With a "bang", I saw Li Er kick on the table fiercely, and the person stood up violently, Wei Zheng, who was kneeling on the ground under his fingers, roared angrily: "Bold Wei Zheng, nonsense, come on, take down this traitor, push it out, and cut it!" ”
Quiet, the silence in the whole hall is terrifying, Lao Li is so angry, no one in the entire hall speaks, not even a person who came up to dissuade him, and none of the forbidden troops outside moved his footsteps.
Faced with such a situation, Li Shimin obviously realized something, and set his eyes on Li Chengqian, who was standing aside.
And at this moment, only to hear the sound of "boom", inside and outside the entire court, countless people suddenly knelt down in the dust, and said in unison: "Please Your Majesty Zen is located in His Royal Highness the Prince!" ”
Damn, this is a rebellion!
Li Shimin's eyes were red by the scene in front of him, and he stared at Li Chengqian, who was standing on the side with an innocent face: "Prince, this is what you want?" ”
"No, no! No, it's not me! When Li Chengqian was asked by the old man, he came back to his senses in an instant, shook his head quickly, but secretly complained in his heart.
What kind of trouble is Lao Wei going to make, the old man and the emperor are good, you just let him be the one, the left and right are just a name, isn't it good to hide behind the scenes like before? Why does Mao have to let the old man abdicate and come to the fore himself? What a difference this is from before! Except for choking the old man's anger, there is no substantial change at all.
Moreover, even if you want the old man to abdicate, can't you discuss it with Lao Tzu? Why make such a big scene! This makes the old man who is very good how to step down, I can't figure out how to kill someone!
Just thinking about it, Wei Zheng below spoke again: "Your Majesty, can you listen to the old minister." ”
"Speak!" Li Er turned his head and stared at the group of people below and said in a deep voice.
"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince really doesn't know about this matter, it was the old minister who took the opportunity of his colleagues to visit the sick during this time to communicate with your colleagues." Wei Zheng first explained for Li Chengqian, who was stunned, and then said slowly: "Your Majesty, this is the last time the old minister admonished, the so-called dying of people, his words are also good, and I hope Your Majesty will not let down the old minister." ”
Li Er didn't speak, just looked at Wei Zheng like that, but Lao Wei didn't raise his head at all, and still said in a calm voice: "Your Majesty, we are all old, and we can't keep up with the pace of development of the Tang Dynasty. ”
"Your Majesty, Datang is already a young Datang, young people are growing, Datang is also growing, if we control the government and continue to stay in this position, we will only suppress them, and it will also slow down the progress of Datang."
"Your Majesty......"
"Enough! I don't want to listen to your nagging anymore! Listening to Wei Zheng's breathless and weaker voice, Li Er didn't know what his mood was at this time.
Distressed? Yes, it hurts, this courtier he called the human mirror turned out to be the first person who wanted to let him Zen the throne, I have to say that this is really the most ironic thing.
Hate? Yes, there is also hatred, this Tang Dynasty was laid down by him, and now let him serve people, which makes Lao Li, who has a strong desire to control, stand it.
Regret? There is no such way, the Tang Emperor never regrets doing things, even if he has come to this point, he does not regret it, but he has some regrets.
Even many years ago, Lao Li had expected such a day, but he didn't expect this day to come so soon.
However, these feelings seem to be of little use, reason tells him that if he resolutely refuses to give way today, it is actually nothing, and the stinky boy on the side is still ignorant, obviously this matter is not from his hand.
That is to say, the courtiers below are just trying to take sides, or expressing their way of taking sides, and they do not dare to force themselves to abdicate by force.
It's just that things have come to this point, Lao Li has a feeling in his heart that it is not interesting to continue to sit on the throne, there is no one under his hands, and this position is just a handout from others. ()
