Chapter 296: Calculating the Dragon (1)
Li Xian was still hesitant at first, but his cronies, Lu Yi of the Yongwang Mansion, persuaded him: "Your Highness, the crown prince first offended His Majesty several times, and then offended the Queen of Heaven, and His Majesty was disappointed, so he had this purpose. If His Highness does it, it is in accordance with the will of heaven, and maybe he will be able to make His Highness achieve great things. Even if it doesn't work, the prince is weak, and if he begs him, his life will not be in danger. However, His Highness hesitated again and again, and the two saints were angry and disappointed, which was against the sky, but it was not good for His Highness. ”
Then he waved his hand: "Great Cause, do it here." The crown prince has only been in charge of the country for many years, if it is about talent, His Royal Highness is better than him? ”
Still hesitating, his strength is too small, and he didn't make a move last time, so he let the eldest brother's party members smash to pieces. Can the eldest brother be willing to forgive once, and can he be willing to forgive twice?
At this time, Li Ming, the king of Suzhou Assassin Cao, and Li Wei, the king of Yizhou Assassin, entered Beijing, and Li Ming was Li Shimin's son, that is, the titular stepson of Li Yuanji, and Xue Yuanchao's brother-in-law. Li Wei is the son of Li Yun, who was falsely accused of suicide last year. Therefore, in order to express his apology, Li Zhi rewarded the children of Li Yun, the king of Jiang, very generously, and immediately let his son succeed his father and serve as the assassin of Yizhou. These two princes were also one of the kings of the Tang Dynasty who had a lot of power.
The two jointly invited Li Xian to have a drink, and during the banquet, Li Ming said ambiguously: "If King Yong is interested, he is willing to help King Yong." ”
Li Xian was silent.
Li Ming said again: "I am willing to say that Yuan Chao will help. ”
"Uncle, why do you help me?"
"The prince is lonely and high, and he is indifferent to the clan, and he is very disappointed."
That is to say, Li Wei is usually a high school and rarely interacts with the children of the clan, and Li Ming can't have a relationship, so he joins forces with Li Xian to bring Li Xian to the stage, and he can soar even more. Although he has become a prince, the prince and the prince are also different, some can serve as a metropolitan governor, and some can be idle in the capital, and the fief rewards given are not equal.
But as the crown prince, Li Wei was cautious in his dealings with important ministers, and his father began to be jealous of a few cronies with small official positions, how could he have close contacts with the disciples of the clan. At most, during the banquet, they were polite to each other. Hugh said that these two kings were in other places, and the disciples of various clans in the capital, Li Wei rarely interacted with each other in order to avoid suspicion.
Li Xian's heart finally began to move, not to mention anything else, if he won over Xue Yuanchao, he would have a lot of say in front of his father, and there were many ministers close to him. The power of the eldest brother is only secretly supported by several prime ministers, so even his mother can't step down. But at this time, at that time, several prime ministers are old, and they have moved to the Zhongshu Order and the servant, and they must be avoided, so that the position of the prime minister is vacant, and the meaning of the father is ...... In fact, Li Xian is not bad, but he has less training, and he thought about it for a while and said, "Then I will follow my father's wishes." ”
"It should be!"
Break up with each other.
With another piece of news, the county lord of Hejing will live the day after tomorrow, because he was exiled to Jiannan for several years, Xue Yuanchao's family lived in poverty for a while. A life of poverty either makes people grow up, and many children from poor families have high ambitions, such as Fan Zhongyan, a model of a real scholar, which is related to his poor life as a teenager, or it makes people more greedy for ink and full of desire for money. The county lord of Hejing has become exactly the latter. Di Renjie has heard about it, not to mention Li Xian.
So he did a stupid thing and took Ming Chongyan's money.
Is this money easy to collect? Whether it is Xue Yuanchao or Zhang Da'an, they are ministers, and they do things in moderation. But in order to achieve his goal, Ming Chongyan can do anything, and his reputation is stinky. But after receiving the money, there is always a benefit, six thousand gold came to the hand, no money was given, that cheesy, sent someone to spend more than a thousand gold, bought expensive gifts and sent them to Xue Mansion, congratulations to the county lord of Hejing. At the instigation of the eldest brother-in-law, his wife blew the wind in her ears by the pillow, and Xue Yuanchao was the first to bow down under Li Xian's door. Then he wrote a letter, saying that King Yong was old and stayed in the palace, which was inconvenient, and he should move out of the palace and open the palace. That is, it is allowed to move out, which is also allowed by the system.
But when I moved out, it really became a bird in the sky and a fish in the sea. You can get any kind of people who want to get around the officials.
Hao Chujun said to Li Zhi worriedly: "In the past, Shibei said to Wei Zhuang Gong, the minister heard the beloved son, taught him well, and he was evil, arrogant and lascivious, and he was evil. The husband is favored but not arrogant, arrogant can be lowered, descended but not provoked, regretful and can be punished, rare. And the husband is cheap and noble, Shaoling is long, distant relatives, new and old, small and large, obscene and righteous, the so-called six reverses, the so-called six reverses, the righteousness, the ministers, the father's kindness, the son's filial piety, brother's love, the younger brother's respect, the so-called six shun, to follow the disobedience, so the quick disaster also. Wei Zhuang Gong didn't listen, so Wei Guo was in trouble. ”
Wei Guo was not a big country in the Spring and Autumn Period, when Wei Zhuang Gong was favored excessively, married Qi Nu Jiang, spoiled, childless, Wei Ren composed the poem "Qi Shuo" endowed it, so he used Chen's son Xiaobo as his adopted son. But Wei Zhuang Gong doted on another son, Zhou Hu. Later, Xiaobo succeeded to the throne, and the state called for chaos and killed Xiaobo, but it was brutal, and the people were not convinced, Shi Hou used a plan to kill Zhou Hu by the hands of the Chen people, and asked the housekeeper to go to Chen to kill Shi Hou, the son of Shi Hou, who was abusive, that is, the origin of the righteous annihilation.
This history is just a small wave in the Spring and Autumn Period, but this period of Shibei's admonition, and the righteous annihilation, are famous for later generations.
Although the words are short, they talk about a lot of truths, such as the relationship between the family, the father loves the son and is filial, but love is not pampered and doted, the same is true for the monarch and the minister, the monarch is righteous and the minister is actual, the king is cruel, and the courtier will naturally not be loyal, but it is also not a favored minister, that is called ignorance, so a righteous word is used. The main thing is that if you are filial piety, you can't spoil the state, or you can establish the state. Of course, you can also give an example, Li Shimin loves Li Tai but sets up Li Chengqian, of course, it is Li Zhi who benefits, and that is not mentioned. This is enough to remind Li Zhi.
But Li Zhi didn't listen, but immediately let Lai Heng and Xue Yuanchao be the three products under the same middle school.
Hao Chujun still wanted to admonish, but was stopped by Dai Zhi, and said: "Hao Xianggong, Your Majesty has made up your mind, and the advice is fruitless, in fact, it is not necessarily a bad thing to support King Yong." ”
Then he made a vague analysis, which was similar to what Di Renjie said, and sighed after finishing speaking: "It's a pity that the court has been in chaos since then." ”
It is conceivable that because of Li Zhi's envoy, the ministers of the DPRK and China will stand in line one after another, including ***, the Hou Party, the Yongwang Party, and the neutral and wait-and-see, what will be the chaos. Since we have taken sides, those who support the enemy will inevitably oppose it, and those who oppose it will inevitably support it, and it is unlikely that this government will be as smooth as before.
"How could Your Majesty be so ......?"
"He's reluctant."
It's not just Li Zhi, Li Wei also thinks about it, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty can be said to be the most powerful person on the planet now. Tubo only relies on the danger of the plateau, but it is a bitter cold land, and it cannot be regarded as a real power. The big food is a white-clothed caliphate, the royal power is constrained, the Byzantine royal power is constrained by religion, the Frankish kingdom is juxtaposed, and even the strong country cannot be counted, the king is just a "lazy king", this laziness is not the laziness of the country, it is that the king has no rights, and can only do nothing in the palace.
Hao Chujun was silent, at this point, although he is upright, he is not stupid, if he is forced, the emperor can make himself a leader. It is conceivable that if the court does not have the support of his own people, the prince may let the emperor continue like this and be abolished.
Dai Zhide said again: "Let's call Li Xianggong and Zhang Xianggong to complete the prince's affairs." ”
It refers to the matter of the quota for merchants to go to sea. The opening of the two channels is not only good for the country, but also good for the righteousness of the prince. But this requires a lot of money, and the further release of the number of merchants at sea is not only the money obtained by quotas, but also the increase in trade volume and the income of the sea market. If this matter is not done this year, there will be a shortage of funds for the two canals next year, if Li Xian has the ability to form a certain microclimate, making a fuss here is a controversial matter, and it may not work.
Li Jingxuan naturally agreed, it had nothing to do with him, it was the Li family in Longxi who had asked someone to talk very early. Several prime ministers agreed, so they discussed with the ministers in the council hall, but this time few people objected. Since the order was issued, many people have written against it, including some large families, and officials have also come under great pressure. Other officials were directly involved in lobbying.
Then he called Li Wei and asked for a quota.
Li Wei pondered for a while and said: "After all, he is a businessman, and there are all kinds of immeasurable risks, so he can't do more. ”
Everyone nodded yes, this is in line with the mainstream idea, as long as you put it down, plug everyone's mouths, and get two canal fees.
"It can't be less, after all, last time many people stood by and watched, and this time they were not convinced, thinking that what they did last time was unfair. In fact, I don't understand, the success of the two canals, for the benefit of the country, for the convenience of the people, and for the benefit of going to sea, this is a move of two benefits, at this time do not contribute, is the so-called good, is the article written, not done? ”
This sarcasm left everyone speechless.
"Lone thinks that one hundred and twenty households are enough, and he made it clear that after this release, no one will be allowed to mention this matter in the future, and no one will be allowed to go to sea without permission."
There are a little less, but the people go abroad, and they are businessmen, and the ministers dare not fight.
But Li Wei's idea is that things are still scarce, and besides, the wind direction is not very good now, and there are too many, which undoubtedly gives people a handle.
Li Jingxuan asked people to draft a book, and Hao Chujun looked at Li Wei and said, "The prince ......"
"Hao Xianggong, when my father issued an edict and asked you to move, I knew it early. The father was jealous of the rebellion of the ancestral emperor's East Palace, so he supported the prince very early and clarified the East Palace. There are advantages and disadvantages, the advantages are clear in the East Palace, and there are fewer differences. But the disadvantaged, there are only a few brothers, and they can't see which is better or worse. Those in the world live in those who are virtuous. This time, it was okay for the father to let the second brother come out. If the second brother does well, he should retreat alone. In fact, Gu also wanted to advise his father and the emperor to let him take on a substantive position, let him hone his skills, or show his talents, so that the country could get a real virtuous monarch in the future. ”
This is what was said in the main hall, in addition to a few prime ministers, there are many ministers, who are just impressed when they hear it......
Pei Xingjian's eyes brightened, not only his eyes lit up, but even Hao Chujun and Li Yiyan's eyes lit up. This is generosity, self-confidence, this can be worthy of the demeanor of a great king, even His Majesty did not have this style in his early years, benevolence and thrift are more than enough, but self-confidence is not enough, this kind of self-confidence, or can only see a shadow in Li Shimin.
