Chapter 218: Acting Again
Hearing Wei Zheng's impeachment, Li Shimin was furious, and he said: "This is worth it." The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info Liang Wang Li Su is so bold and blatantly violates the laws of the country, and this matter must be strictly investigated. ”
Li Shimin's words caused quite a shock. The ministers speculated. Since the Liang King Li Su returned to Chang'an, his posts as the Xuanfu Envoy of the Grassland and the Propaganda of the Western Regions were revoked, and he returned to the research institute as the deputy director.
Could it be that His Royal Highness King Liang has fallen out of favor?
As early as the dynasty, since the Wu clan was not the current official, their jurisdiction was subordinate to the jurisdiction of Jingzhao Mansion, so Li Shimin ordered Jingzhao Yin Chuyun to be responsible for investigating the matter.
After the dispersal of the dynasty, the ministers all left and went back to work, and today's incident has attracted their attention. People have speculated that there are all kinds of theories.
East Palace.
Since Li Su, the king of Liang, has not come to the door since he returned from the Western Regions, and the crown prince Zhang Xuansu is very worried. He exchanged views with the eldest grandson Wuji, thinking that His Royal Highness King Liang had an opinion on the crown prince. Their countermeasure was to find an opportunity to mend their relationship with King Liang.
Today, Liang Wang Li Su is in trouble again.
Zhang Xuansu consulted with the prince and others. Now, the crown prince Li Chengqian also has a deep prejudice against Li Su. First of all, he had an opinion on Li Su's not taking the initiative to report to him about the affairs of the Western Regions, and felt that he thought that he had made meritorious contributions in the Western Regions, and he was proud of his achievements, and he didn't take him as a prince in his eyes.
Later, there was another ballroom dancing incident, and the prince even believed that Li Su deliberately targeted him, meaning to laugh at him for having a disabled leg. A few days ago, Li Su rescued people from the fire, and he became famous for a while, and the limelight was too strong, which also made him feel uncomfortable.
Today, Li Chengqian's impeachment and Li Shimin's attitude made Li Chengqian feel a kind of schadenfreude in his heart.
Zhang Xuansu said: "Your Highness, His Royal Highness King Liang is in trouble, we should try to help him." This matter is investigated by Jingzhao Mansion, Lord Jingzhao Yin Chu is our person, do you want to send him a letter and let him fully cooperate? ”
Li Chengqian did not say anything.
Zhang Xuansu said: "Your Highness, what do you mean? "He saw the prince
Without expressing an attitude, he asked.
Li Chengqian said: "King Liang's affairs, let's not meddle." He was reluctant to help Li Su from the bottom of his heart.
Zhang Xuansu was very depressed and didn't know how to persuade His Royal Highness the emotional prince.
At this moment, a eunuch came to report that the queen had asked the prince to go over with Zhang Xuansu.
Lizheng Palace.
The eldest grandson queen and the eldest grandson Wuji are there. Seeing the crown prince and Zhang Xuansu coming in, Empress Eldest Sun asked, "Cheng Qian, what do you think about Wei Zheng's impeachment of King Liang?" ”
Li Chengqian said: "After the mother, the sixth brother came back from the Western Regions, and my father removed his grassland Xuanfu envoy and the Western Regions Xuanfu envoy. Moreover, his father did not send him a new errand. He has been in the limelight lately, and then he is jealous for a woman. Erchen felt that he was venting his dissatisfaction with his father. ”
Empress Eldest Sun was very happy, regardless of whether his analysis was correct or not, at least she was willing to use her brains. "It's good, you've learned to analyze problems, and that's a big improvement," she says. ”
In the past, when Li Chengqian saw Empress Changsun, he was basically trained, but this time he was praised and he was very excited. He said: "Thank you for the compliment, today Master Zhang said that let Erchen try to help the sixth brother, Erchen thinks it is better to draw a line with him, so as not to be affected by him." ”
Zhang Xuansu said: "Your Highness's consideration is not unreasonable. However, how did the minister feel that things were not as they seemed to be, and there seemed to be something hidden behind them, and the minister couldn't see it clearly for a while. ”
The eldest grandson Wuji said appreciatively: "Master Zhang is worthy of being experienced, and considering the problem is in-depth. ”
Empress Changsun said: "After King Liang returned, his position in the Western Regions and the Grassland was canceled, but it was not that he fell out of favor, but he gained the emperor's trust even more. ”
Li Chengqian asked puzzledly: "Queen Mother, the sixth brother has no new appointment, and he is still the deputy director of the research institute, and this time he was impeached again, and his father is still very angry." How could he gain the trust of his father even more? ”
The eldest grandson Wuji was subjected: "Your Highness, don't look at the surface of things. I'll give you an analysis.
His Royal Highness King Liang made great contributions to the imperial court when he pacified the grasslands and the Western Regions, although he did not receive any rewards, but Du He, Cheng Chumo and others who followed him were rewarded.
His Royal Highness King Liang is a smart man, and his position as the envoy of the Western Regions and the grasslands, if the minister guessed correctly, he took the initiative to ask for his resignation. Before he resigned, he was a veritable king of the Western Regions and the king of the grasslands, holding hundreds of thousands of troops, and his strength had reached the point where he could threaten the imperial court.
Isn't it dangerous that he doesn't resign in a hurry?
He has no other appointments now, and he does not participate in politics in the DPRK, so he seems to have no real power and influence, but in fact he is not. ”
Li Chengqian asked: "He is the deputy director of a research institute, what influence can he have?" ”
The eldest grandson Wuji said: "Don't underestimate him. His Royal Highness King Liang does not seem to have any real power, but the research institute, industrial city and education base have huge financial and material resources, as well as a large number of talents.
His Royal Highness King Liang has grown rapidly in strength in recent years, and King Li, Hou Junji and the two county kings on the grassland are all his hardcore supporters. Through the reform of the military system and his experience in the grasslands and the Western Regions, his status in the army was very high, and a large number of generals in the army, such as Li Jing, Li Ji, and Su Dingfang, all respected His Royal Highness King Liang very much.
In the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Households, he also had a great influence.
It can be said that His Royal Highness King Liang has unknowingly accumulated a huge amount of energy.
And that's not all. The emperor's trust in His Royal Highness King Liang is his greatest reliance. ”
Empress Eldest Sun said, "What my brother said is true. I have recently observed that King Liang frequented the emperor's study, but there is no record of him asking to see him in Zhongshu Province. make move
This shows one thing, that is, King Liang did not need to be notified when he met the emperor, which means that the emperor granted him this privilege.
You must know that in the entire Tang Dynasty, only you had this privilege in the past. ”
"Huh? Are you sure? Li Chengqian was amazed for a while, and he was also very envious.
The eldest grandson Wuji said: "Your Highness, it's true. Not long ago, the minister was talking to the emperor about things, and His Royal Highness King Liang came in directly. The emperor just looked up at him and asked him to sit down. It seems that I am used to it. ”
Zhang Xuansu said: "If this is the case, today's court, Wei Zheng impeached His Royal Highness King Liang, and the emperor pretended to be angry, it was all an illusion. They're acting again!
The minister remembered that the emperor and His Royal Highness King Liang had been acting several times, for example, a few years ago, they acted for Xue Yantuo's people. At that time, everyone was hidden. ”
Li Chengqian said: "Yes, that acting, Erchen also participated!" ”
