7 Guo Wei
As soon as Guo Wei got up, Wang Zhang's expression was much more relaxed. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
Step by step to the middle, Guo Wei glanced at the faces of the people sitting on both sides one by one, and everyone lowered their heads and did not dare to look at him after seeing the gaze he projected.
He looked around, and finally fixed on the face of Emperor Liu Chengyou. The monarchs and ministers of the five dynasties lacked the courtesy of the ministers when they saw each other, but it was rare to look at the monarch like this.
The emperor only felt that his whole body was swollen, and Guo Wei's expression was not angry, but his body involuntarily trembled slightly. The emperor only wanted to take a look at Su Fengji for help, but Guo Wei's pupils seemed to want to suck people in, and he had no chance of escaping.
The emperor forcibly calmed down: "Guo Qingjia, what do you think, but it doesn't hurt to talk about it." He simply turned his back and walked towards the royal case
As long as you return to the throne, it will be much easier for you to hide this tension. Even if he turned his back, the emperor still felt uncomfortable, and this experience was not like Huo Guangzhi to Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty, because Guo Wei's existence did not give him the feeling of a thorn in his back, but a kind of burning or scorching. For this emperor, Guo Wei was like a fire, as if he wanted to make everything around him be steamed clean. The Emperor scanned diligently, like a drowning man seeking something to hold onto. His gaze is fixed on the face of a person with extremely beautiful eyes, this person's eyes are bright, the bridge of the nose is high as if it is carved, the lips are white, the chin has a short beard, and he is over fifty years old but his skin is white and delicate, but he is the uncle Li Ye. However, this man has been avoiding the emperor's gaze.
Guo Wei sighed slightly, and said slowly: "Master Shi, the country is short of money, things are difficult to do, and everyone here is very anxious. I am in charge of the forbidden army, and the lack of horses is the most embarrassing day and night, why do you want to speak ill of Su Xiang here? ”
Shi Hongzhao's eyes widened and he looked at Guo Wei suspiciously, why did he suddenly stop standing with him?
Su Fengji also turned his head sideways, desperately putting his ear at Guo, as if carefully tasting the meaning of his words.
Guo Wei said to the emperor again: "Shengshang, the first emperor set up four ministers before his death, thinking that he would take care of his life, in fact, not only these four people, Feng Taishi and Wang Taifu here, are all ministers of the court. ”
The emperor lowered his head and looked at the imperial case blankly, with a slight shame in his heart, and in a blink of an eye, he became more and more resentful of Guo Wei in his heart: Wow! You want me to listen to it, but in fact, you think that I am too close to Su Fengji, and it is inconvenient for you to be a tyrant of military power! Who doesn't know your evil intentions?
Guo Wei also ignored him anymore, but continued: "Su Xiang just said that there are so many places to use money, but in fact, what are these things? The night sky shone in Deng the day before yesterday, and the book on Liu Yanseng, the envoy of the Weisheng Army, all the princes thought that they had read it, and such a fierce vision made people within a radius of hundreds of miles see it, which was unprecedented in history. In the past few days, there has been a lot of discussion in the government and the opposition, some say that the capital will be moved, and some say that Dengzhou will carry Nanjing, no matter what, this is a matter of judgment, and we must not blindly ignore it, let alone let this public opinion mess up the situation and discipline. ”
At this time, Feng Dao's heart palpitated: "Okay, very! Today's second topic finally came out, I originally thought that Su Fengji was making trouble with "Kui Xing in the world", but it turned out that this bad idea of carrying the capital was actually from you! ”
Shi Hongzhao said: "Guo Shumi, since it is related to Dengzhou, I have to say a few more words, the so-called issue of moving the capital to Deng, regardless of Wei and Tang, there is indeed a theory that can be examined in the past dynasties. However, Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty has built the Tongji Canal for 300 years, and the canal is to the line from Bianjing to Songzhou (Songzhou is east of Kaifeng, that is, near Shangqiu, Henan), rather than to the south to Deng and Xiang. ”
"That's right," Guo Wei nodded, "You go on." ”
Guo Wei said this arrogant language calmly, without any scruples about the emperor on the throne. The ministers present listened intently, as if they had long been familiar with this kind of scene.
"As for raising Deng as Nanjing, isn't this short-sighted? Of course, if there is chaos in the three directions of Heshuo, Northwest and North, the palace can be temporarily moved here to avoid the edge when it is critical, and it can indeed give Bianjing a back road. Shi Hongzhao said as he raised his eyes slightly to look at Guo Wei's expression, observing whether he was surprised by his words. After thinking about it for a while, he added: "I still hope that the privy councillor and the holy lord will see it."
Guo Wei laughed loudly, although he was over fifty years old, this laughter was still bright like a bell chime, Feng Dao was shocked by this laughter, and couldn't help coughing lightly, and the historian who recorded the daily life and actual record on the side of the royal car was also so shocked that he dropped his pen on the ground.
He did not answer Shi Hongzhao's words, but turned around and asked Su Fengji:
"Su Xianggong, what do you think?"
Su Fengji checked Guo Wei's eyes, and the other party's eyes were like a fishhook, as if he could fish away his heart, liver, spleen and lungs together.
Su Fengji's heart was pounding, and he hurriedly threw out a tentative word: "The matter of lifting the capital has cost a lot, but I don't know ...... in terms of financial resources."
"The judges of the Duzhi Bureau, and even the officials sitting in the hall all respect Su Xiang, these things are not impossible to think about, huh...... As for the correspondence between revenue and expenditure, this is indeed important, and the prince and the Privy Council will naturally not hinder it. ”
Su Fengji couldn't help but be overjoyed when he heard Guo Wei's words, which meant that perhaps Guo Wei, who was a privy envoy, would finally not let Wang Zhang and Yang Wei, the privy deputy envoy, resign against the proposal to save consumption. At this time, he already knew in his heart, and he hurriedly saluted in the direction of the throne and said, "Your Majesty, Dengzhou's proposal really needs to be considered. The ministers heard that the unscrupulous people of the government and the opposition often had private discussions, accusing Emperor Gaozu of being of Shatuo bloodline, and Deng Zhou was the capital of accompaniment, which can correct our society and calm the hearts of the people of the world! ”
Feng Dao sat at the bottom, and secretly exclaimed at this time, Su Fengji saw things quickly, and he was really extraordinary!
In order to prove the legitimacy of his rule over the Han dynasty in the Central Plains, Gaozu falsely claimed to be Liu Yu, the king of Huaiyang in the Eastern Han Dynasty, and named the country Han.
Liu Xun, the grandson of Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu and the fourth son of Emperor Liu Zhuang of the Han Ming Dynasty. Nanyang is the birthplace of Emperor Guangwu, so after the establishment of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Nanyang was used as the accompanying capital, this practice often appears in Chinese history, such as four hundred years later, Zhu Yuanzhang opened the country that set up his hometown Fengyang as the accompanying capital, as the central capital of Linhao Mansion.
Since Nanyang was originally the capital of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and Liu Zhiyuan inherited the unification of the Eastern Han Dynasty, then Su Fengji is now talking about this matter, but it seems that the southern capital of Dengzhou really has to be established, and it is simply indispensable!
At this time, the ministers under the imperial case all bowed their heads, thinking about the impact of the Linandu incident on their own forces.
The emperor was just about to speak tremblingly, but Guo Wei had already spoken first: "As for the stay of this accompanying capital, it may not be appropriate to put it in the clan." On the contrary, Liu Yanseng, although he is not a royal clan, as an envoy, has been keeping to himself for many years and has not deviated. If he is allowed to expand his territory and fight against chaos, he can still build a capital and manage it well. ”
Feng Dao's heart was bright, and at the beginning, Wang Zhang proposed that the emperor's uncle Liu Chong intercepted the horses, not only because Guo Wei wanted to use the saving consumption as a hook to catch Su Fengji. On this ground, the atmosphere of "the clan may not be reliable if left behind" is exaggerated. Liu Yanseng is not a clan, this person is neutral on the surface, in fact, Feng Dao has long smelled the smell of him taking refuge in Guo Wei behind his back. A lack of horses incident, it turns out that there is such a trick hidden.
Feng Daozheng was thinking about it, and Guo Wei had already spoken again:
"Princes, Su Xiang's proposal, the provincial consumption is increased into two buckets to fill the treasury. Avoid the consumption of rats and birds, and complain to the common people. The problem of military horses and degrees has also been alleviated. There is also a matter of establishing a capital to accompany the capital, and there should be a preliminary decision. ”
Guo Wei finished saying what he should have said, and now he slowly closed his eyes, waiting for the fruits of victory.
"Minister, no objection!" Su Fengji answered first.
"The minister seconded the proposal." Yang Wei has always been Guo Wei's follower, and he also followed.
"The minister seconded the proposal!" Of course, Wang Zhang had nothing to say.
"There is no objection to the minister." Li Ye, who had been silent just now, had no choice but to agree.
Shi Hongzhao's eyes widened, as if the change in the situation in front of him was too unexpected, it was like a dream, and he couldn't accept it for a while. Guo Wei furrowed his brows and glanced sideways in his direction.
"Hey...... No objection............"
Shi Hongzhao knew that the general trend had been decided, and finally there was no more trouble.
Could it be that the so-called urging of good horses by the Holy Protector Army was also instigated by Guo Wei? Thinking of this, Feng Dao's heart was full of joy again. All right! This court, this court has become a blatant trading place for you Guo Wei and Su Fengji. The two of you sit on the ground and share the spoils, each taking what he needs, but the people of the world will be scraped by your saving consumption and even more unable to live! Feng Dao secretly gritted his teeth, and a wave of disgust in his chest was about to surge up.
"Master Feng, I don't know if you have any objections?"
Feng Dao was stunned, it turned out that this voice came from the emperor on the throne, seeing the emperor looking at him pitifully, Feng Dao sighed, and finally stood up:
"Minister, there is no objection."
Feng Dao had read a lot of sage books, but he was not a saint. He's just a fox, and he's an old fox.
Feng Dao knew that a fox had to have the way of living a fox, no matter what the state of mind of a moment was, human nature was difficult to overcome.
Author's note:
The four capitals of the Later Han Dynasty were the capital Kaifeng (or Daliang), Xijing Luoyang, Beijing Taiyuan, and the Yedu Daimyofu. Xijing Luoyang followed the Later Jin Dynasty, and the Yedu Daimyo Mansion was the original Xingtang Mansion, which was also inherited from the Later Jin Dynasty. Beijing Taiyuan Mansion is not only the capital of the previous dynasty, but also the birthplace of Liu Zhiyuan, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, so it exists as a stay. If Dengzhou is added as Nanyang Mansion in Nanjing because of Chengyuan's crossing, it is equivalent to resurrecting the famous five-capital system in Chinese history.
