Chapter 132: Spring Thunder (4)

Wu Zetian saw a bright future, but he was still cautious, and sent an envoy to question Hei Tooth Changzhi again. The black tooth is still stumbling, and the voice is getting lower and lower.

The messenger returned to give a report.

Wu Zetian did one thing first, arrested Wang Cainian, and secretly interrogated him by torture in the palace, not only Wang Cainian, but also the eunuchs that Wang Cainian had bribed the past, and at the same time, he was also strangled in the East Palace, implicating more than 30 eunuchs.

I thought that my son was just a person who read poetry and books, kept ancient rites, and was dogmatic. I didn't pay attention to it, but later through various signs, I learned that my son had also planted someone by his side. However, he also planted someone next to his son, and he killed him, for fear of setting a precedent. Moreover, at that time, Li Wei already had a lot of power in his hands. So he came to Shangyang Palace and sent Wang Cainian to the Inner Palace. After arriving at the inner palace, Wang Cainian was sent to Shangyang Palace. Don't let him get in touch with the insider's ghosts

However, Wu Zetian was very unhappy about this matter, until he came out and removed all the eyeliner in the inner palace and Li Wei in one fell swoop.

Hearing that several women in the Houdong Palace were only a little anxious, Shangguan Wan'er asked Di Cong to leave the palace again, and asked Di Renjie to intercede for Wang Cainian.

Di Renjie couldn't help but shake his head after hearing what Qiu Ji said, and said, "Peng'er, if there is no accident, this is the beginning." And you, try not to go out of the palace in the future, and say to Wanyi, play less with your eyes, if you don't get it right, you will be implicated in the East Palace. ”

Although Wang Cainian is His Majesty's person and has done many things for His Majesty, he cannot be saved. Besides, he has a reputation as a prime minister, and if he manages too many things, the queen mother will be suspicious, and even he will definitely die.

There are also several concubines and princes in the East Palace who also worry him.

The Queen Mother can't confirm that Her Majesty is dead, if it is, the princes of the East Palace will also get in the way of the Queen Mother's affairs, don't say that the grandson is the flesh that fell from his own son and daughter...... The Queen Mother is still not mistaken.

If you want to kill the princes, the first to bear the brunt are the concubines.

Now I can only ask for the emperor's plan. I really want to ask Liu Renliang, but the whole Luoyang is full of Wu Zetian's eyes and ears, and Di Renjie has some heroes in his hands, and he doesn't dare to use it. I am afraid that the news will leak and ruin Li Wei's big thing.

Di Ci was very clever, reacted immediately, and then returned to the palace.

killed Wang Cainian, and in the process of returning the Qinghai envoy, Wu Zetian did one more thing.

Last year, the kings were rewarded to win the hearts of the kings. Among them, there are several important clans, the fourth son of Li Yuan's twenty-two sons who exist in the world, Han Wangya, Jia, Zheng Wang Lingman, Huo Wangyun, Rail, Shu Wangya, Li Shimin's second son, Yue Wangzhen, Ji Wangshen, Li Zhi's eight sons, one was killed, one died of illness, Wu Zetian was born to herself, let her kill one by herself, two imprisoned, and another, life and death unknown, in addition to Li Shangjin and Li Sujie, who have been made half dead by Wu Zetian in recent years.

In addition, there are clans left by Li Yuan's cousins, but they are not orthodox, and they are not a big threat to Wu Zetian.

After more than half a year, Wu Zetian made a second reward, this time it was not a title, but wealth, and a lot of wealth was rewarded. After the appreciation, let them move, for example, it turned out to be the history of the thorn in Jiazhou, Hedong, and moved to Yizhou, Hebei to do the history of thorns.

In this way, when we arrived in a place where we were unfamiliar with people, the officials had no friendship, the people had no kindness, and the soldiers did not know each other, so they had to be good people.

After doing this, this is the next thing.

She didn't say it herself, but borrowed what Wu Chenghei said from his mouth, and named the ancestor of the Wu clan as the king. Since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, a few county kings have been set up just to win over some Hu people, but Wu Chengsi obviously does not refer to the county king. Not only did he make this request, but he also asked for the Seven Temples of the Liwu Clan.

Later, no matter what temple number you set up, as long as you have money, you can set it up slowly, and you can set it up as you want, and no one dares to interfere. But in this era, it has a strong meaning. If you are not an emperor or ancestor, you can't build a temple. Since ancient and modern times, after many powers, how many people dare to crown the king and build a temple for their ancestors?

Several prime ministers looked at each other, and Wei Xuan, together with Fei, Liu Jingxian, Mu Changqian, and Guo Zhiju, turned their heads to look at Pei Yan

In their hearts, Pei Yan is still a very upright minister, and he is favored by the Queen Mother, hoping that he will admonish and cancel Wu Zetian's plan.

Pei Yan also frowned.

Wu Zetian's approach is not what should be in the script. He hopes that the Queen Mother will be a powerful Queen Mother, not that she will have bigger ideas. However, thinking that the emperor's life and death were unknown, and the huge shadow still existed, there was no sound in his mouth.

Liu Jingxian and the others were slightly disappointed.

This is not a change in the official system, although some feminine names have been changed, the rights are still that rights, the affairs under jurisdiction are still those affairs, the essence has not changed, and it can be tolerated. Sealing the name of the king and building a temple for the ancestors also means that it is about to ascend to the sky.

Especially Liu Jingxian, he was very disappointed. Originally, Pei Yan was a good person who was wronged by the emperor and a gentleman, but when such a big thing happened, he didn't dare to admonish him, how could he talk about a gentleman? I even faintly felt that when the Emperor Taishang called for himself to enter the palace, he recommended Pei Yan, which was a wrong move.

Pei Yan didn't say anything, as the No. 2 minister, he was about to stand up and speak. Xu Xu said: "Liu Gong said in Xijing to prevent the incident of Lu Hou. The Queen Mother should beware of the defeat of Empress Lu. Wu Zetian replied calmly: "Empress Lu is a large-scale feudal of the living relatives who are defeated, I am just chasing the ancestors, it is just a trivial matter, why not?" ”

Not only him, but Wei Xuanzhong also regretted it a little. All the while, he vacillated between Li Wei and Pei Yan. It's not that he wants to speculate, it's that he didn't see through Pei Yan, why does Pei Yan speak authoritatively, and it's not because of the strong support of a few important ministers and Cheng Wuting's generals?

Sure enough, he stood up and said, "Isn't the temple number a trivial matter? Even if it is a small thing, it must be guarded against. Di Renjie also stood up, and the situation was becoming more and more favorable to His Majesty, but he didn't want to see Wu Ze naively become the emperor. And Wu Zetian just had this terrible trend, took Wei Xuantong's words, and admonished: "If the queen mother pursues the ancestors, the ministers think it's okay, but they don't set up a temple number." This is the state system, once the queen mother opened this head, if the future emperor is young, the queen mother in the harem, but also learn the queen mother's temple number. Without the talent and morality of the Queen Mother, everything happened. Queen Mother, you must be on guard. ”

A sneer rose at the corner of Wu Zetian's mouth, the jade chariot is already hot, the throne is stable, how can the three of you, the little prime minister, stop it.

Don't listen. After hiding in the curtain, he left the prime ministers and left.

The next day, the discussion continued.

Wu Zetian has a lot of energy, and he is not the most diligent in handling government affairs, but he is not lazy either.

In fact, it is very hard to be a good emperor. Li Wei has experienced that every day the three provinces send countless newspapers, and he still has to think about the future of the whole country. Even the death penalty cases across the country have to be brought over and examined. With the folds handed over by the three provinces, if you review and approve them one by one, you may not want to sleep all day and all night. This is the disadvantage of ruling the world with one man.

I don't know why my mother is so obsessed with power.

If you are a queen mother with status, how good it is, you can have whatever you want. How much energy does it take to be an emperor, and how many brain cells die every day? And I made my own promises again and again, not to let you be a boring queen mother, I also want to ask you to stand behind me as a reference for me. However, the mother's desire for power reached a pathological point.

In fact, if possible, Li Wei would like to be a carefree prince. Or it's not bad to be a puppet emperor, after all, he is the emperor, with seventy-two concubines in three palaces and six courts, and he enjoys endless glory and wealth. But knowing is not feasible, the more power the mother controls, the greater the ambition and **, on this road of power, all those who stand in her way will be killed. He was willing to be a puppet emperor, and because of his reputation, he would be killed inexplicably sooner or later.

So I listened to the way that there was no Lu clan, which was not a solution.

This time, the discussion was done with two people. Liu Jing was the first to advocate and openly oppose her, demoting him to the governor of Ji, and Wei Xuantong to the history of the Yuezhou assassin.

The prime minister was stunned, the Queen Mother wants to prosper those who follow me, and those who oppose me die.

But Di Renjie looked at the curtain with blank eyes, and you also belittled me. Staying in Luoyang, we are very uneasy. It's not Liu Jingxian, who has nothing to do with His Majesty, once the Queen Mother wants to do it to herself, there is only a dead end. Downgraded to the locality, it becomes very safe. Wu Zetian looked at Di Renjie's expression and felt very strange, and he understood it after a while. The corners of her beautiful mouth curled. However, the smile was immediately lost, because he saw that a dark cloud had piled up on Pei Yan's face. At this time, Pei Yan was finally a little dissatisfied.

I didn't object, Liu Wei and the others objected, and the strength was not great, and the Queen Mother's disposal was too heavy. And these two people have a bad relationship with themselves, and they are degraded, and they are missing two important wings in the court. Could it be that the Queen Mother didn't let me go in the end?

This made him think of one thing clearly, the possibility of the emperor coming back is almost gone, and the generals of the Western Regions of Qinghai are still persevering. But once the emperor really has no vitality, no matter how brave they are, without the support of righteousness, they are nothing.

Then the distribution of power in the court, one in the hands of the queen mother and the other in her own hands, the contradiction will intensify sooner or later. But he wanted to fight back, but he felt that there was no possibility of fighting back. Moreover, before the emperor's message was implemented, he did not dare to fight back.

After nearly a year of beautiful cooperation, there was finally a slight barrier.

Wu Zetian snorted coldly in his heart and continued to give orders.

dismissed two prime ministers in a row, Wu Zetian did not regret it. Well, there are no more people in the court, and after thinking about who is obedient, so Zuo Suzheng is the top taste, and Li Jingmou, the Fengge Sheren, is the third product under the Zhongshu Sect, and the doctor Cui Yu and Shen Junliang are the same level of affairs.

The doctor is also the official and employee of the original Ming Chongyan, that is, as long as you are obedient, even if you are a petty official of four or five grades, you can still be the prime minister.

Several people glanced at each other and felt that this was child's play, but this kind of child's play made them feel a strong threat. It's disobedient, right, there aren't too many people who want to be on top.

Wu Zetian stared at Di Renjie at this time, and Wu Zetian admired this minister very much. There are many ministers in the court, either like Pei Yan, who are talented but have no backbone. No matter how capable the officials are and how good they are, Wu Zetian always looks down on them, and this kind of person can only be used as a chess piece. Either a small number of people have backbone and conduct, but they lack talent. There are only a handful of people who have both.

Before getting his son's whereabouts, Di Renjie couldn't move casually. Behind him is the powerful imperial party, which is not in the political hall, but among the middle and low-level officials, among the soldiers, and in the hearts of the common people. Moreover, there is Liu Renliang eyeing him in Xijing. This is one of them.

Moreover, there is also the edict of the first emperor, and he was deposed not long after he was buried, and the public will talk about it very much, and this result is not what she wants.

Of course, there is also Pei Yan.

So he said: "Di Renjie is a promise." ”

That is, he replaced Liu Jingxian's official position and the head of Menxia Province.

After finishing speaking, he glanced at Pei Yan again, Pei Yan is powerful and needs people to restrain him, although he has promoted four prime ministers in one go, these talents are lacking, so he needs a capable minister to form a balance with Pei Yan.

However, Di Renjie was not happy, and bowed down and said: "The queen mother, the minister's talent is shallow, and the promotion is too hopeful, so I dare not accept it." ”

To do this household servant, no, it is the position of the third grade of the Tianguan Shilang Zhongshu Sect, all of them are like sitting on cracked felt, and now they are promoted to serve in the middle school, isn't it trying to harm me?

He was very sober, and the higher he pushed, the worse he fell.

"Di Qing, you are the minister mentioned in the edict of the first emperor, you don't dare to accept it, where is the first emperor?" Wu Zetiansen said coldly.

Qiu Renjie was so frightened that he didn't dare to speak.

Wu Zetian said again: "The mourning family appointed you as a spoken, then you must also faithfully handle national affairs for the mourning family." ”

I appreciate you, promote you as a servant, and make you a real prime minister, then you have to be loyal to me. Don't think about my son anymore, or you will bear the consequences!
