Luoyang Palace, Qianyuan Palace. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

Empress Wu looked at His Royal Highness's black oppressive minister, and felt proud for a while, after three months of operation, the power of the Tang Dynasty has been successfully handed over, and it has been smoothly controlled by himself, although the new emperor Li Xian has a very high reputation before, but he can only choose to compromise in the face of reality, although he has also experienced several resistances during the period, but because the entire political hall is controlled by her people, so that kind of resistance is simply a mayfly shaking the pillar, faint and ridiculous.

"Hmph, Xian'er boy, when the emperor was alive, how strong you were, you didn't take me seriously, your martial arts are amazing, but so what? Isn't it under my control now? As for the generals you rely on, they have now been sent to the frontier by me, and if they dare to return with their troops privately, there is only a dead end waiting for them, not to mention that you are my hostage, I don't believe that they dare to risk your death to start a rebellion. Boy, do you want to compare with me? You're still a little tender. ”

Empress Wu smiled proudly, and then asked, "I don't know what important things Zhongqing has to report?" If there is nothing to do, you can retreat. ”

At this time, he suddenly saw the new secretary of the military department and the third rank of the same Zhongshu Cen Changqian said loudly: "The Queen Mother, it's not good, Li Jingye is reversed!" ”

"What? Li Jingye? He, a little Liuzhou Sima, dared to rebel? How big a wave can this little power make? After hearing this, Empress Wu smiled disappreciatively, waved her hand and said.

But I saw Cen Changqian sighing: "The Queen Mother doesn't know, this guy is not in Liuzhou, but in Yangzhou, at present, this guy has controlled the entire Yangzhou and established three mansions, one is Kuangfu Mansion, one is Yinggong Mansion, and the other is Yangzhou Metropolitan Governor's Mansion." Jingye called himself the general of Kuangfu Mansion and led the governor of Yangzhou. With Tang Zhiqi and Du Qiuren as the left and right long history, Wang Bo and Zhang Khan Zhi as the left and right Sima, Wei Siwen as the military advisor, and Luo Bin Wang as the secretary, more than 100,000 soldiers were gathered in ten days, and Luo Bin Wang also wrote an essay, which was really hateful......"

"What? What did you say? That guy actually occupies the entire Yangzhou Metropolitan Governor's Mansion? And there are more than 100,000 people gathered under his command? Damn, when did this guy arrive in Yangzhou? Empress Wu suddenly realized the seriousness of the matter, and hurriedly asked.

After that, Cen Changqian smiled bitterly and told Li Jingye about the rebellion again.

"This guy is really hateful, I thought you were Li Ji's grandson, so I wouldn't have done anything to you? By the way, you just said that he ordered King Luo Bing to write an essay, where are the fine lines? Show me. With a hint of curiosity between the eyebrows of Empress Wu, she said to Cen Changqian.

Cen Changqian hesitated for a while, and said slowly: "The Queen Mother, you still don't want to read this text, King Luo Bin is very vicious, and he slandered the Queen Mother......

"Hehe, I'm just going to be bitten by a dog, it's okay, show it to me." Empress Wu took the text and looked at it silently.

I saw that the text wrote: "The pseudo-Linchao Wu clan is not harmonious, and the earth is really cold." In the past, Taizong was under Chen, and he once served with a change of clothes. In the late season, the spring palace is filthy. Hidden in the privacy of the first emperor, the concubine of the back room. The entrance is jealous, and the moth eyebrows refuse to let people; Cover up the sleeves and slander, and the fox can confuse the master. After practicing the Yuan, he was in Hui Zhai, and he trapped my monarch in Juqi. With the lizard as the heart, the jackal is a wolf, close to the wicked, cruel and good, killing the sister and brother, and killing the king and the mother. What man and God are jealous of, heaven and earth do not tolerate...... Yan pecked the emperor's grandson, knowing that Han Zuo was about to end; After Emperor Longluan, he knew the decline of the summer court.

……

The public or the family heirloom Han Jue, or the local association and the relatives, or the heavy position in the minions, or the order of the Xuan room. The words are still in your ears, how can you forget your loyalty? A handful of soil has not dried, what can be done with six feet of loneliness? If you can turn misfortune into blessing and send it to the residence, you will establish the honor of the king of diligence together, and there will be no abolition of the old king's life...... Please see whose world is in today's domain! Moved to the county of the state, and the salty envoy knew about it. ”

Empress Wu looked at the text, and immediately laughed and said: "This King Luo Bin is talented, and he was underestimated in the past." ”

At this time, Li Xian, who was on the emperor's throne, suddenly spoke: "Queen Mother, can you show this text to your son, who wants to know what this King Luo Bin wrote?" ”

Empress Wu was stunned when she heard this, she also knew what Li Xian was thinking, but she didn't care at all, and handed the text to Li Xian to look at.

But he didn't expect Li Xian to suddenly tear up the text, and shouted loudly: "This Li Jingye, Luo Bin Wang and other thieves eat my Tang Dynasty Yulu, they are so ungrateful, it is really intolerable in heaven and earth, the queen mother, please allow the sons to lead a large army, and the sons want to drive the royal expedition to exterminate this thief, and the head of the thief is the gate of heaven!" ”

"Hehe, let you lead the troops? Isn't the world even more chaotic? I'm afraid that Li Jingye and others will definitely attack Luoyang with you at that time, I don't know? These people are actually your people! Empress Wu secretly sneered in her heart, but on the surface, she laughed and said: "These rabble, you don't need the emperor to lead the troops to fight, I have no shortage of elite soldiers and good generals, just find one person, and you can exterminate this handful of clowns." ”

Empress Wu looked at the ministers, and then said: "After Li Jingye became a hero, he was pampered and arrogant, and committed rebellion, which is really an unforgivable sin, pass on my will, take Li Xiaoyi as the governor of Yangzhou Province, command the army of 300,000, immediately send troops, defeat the thief, deprive Li Jingye of the surname given by the brothers, and still change it to Xu Jingye, Xu Jingyou, etc., the tombs of the dedicated fathers and ancestors are all opened, and the family members are accepted as slaves. ”

After some intensive arrangements, three days later, Empress Wu issued an edict, with Li Xiaoyi, the general of Zuo Yuxuanwei, as the governor of Yangzhou Province, Li Zhishi, the general of Zuo Jinwuwei, and Lin Zhonglang, the general of Zuo Jinwuwei, and Ma Jingchen as the deputy commander, commanding 300,000 troops, and going to Yangzhou.

But he didn't expect that at the same time, Guo Yuanzhen, the governor of Youzhou, also led troops to support Li Jingye and asked Empress Wu to hand over power to the emperor. Within ten days, more than 100,000 people gathered, the Empress Wu was shocked, because Guo Yuanzhen was not an ordinary person, this person was both civil and military, with great achievements, and his prestige in the north was extremely high, and the Empress Wu could only send Zuo Yulin's general Zhang Qianqiao to lead 300,000 troops to quell the rebellion, and for a while, the Luoyang defense that had gathered a million troops suddenly became empty.

However, Empress Wu asked herself that there were 100,000 troops under the command of Cheng Wuting, the general of Wuwei, as well as the 50,000 Jin Yan army of Li Duozuo, the general of the left prison guard, and the 100,000 Tubo army of Gar Gongren, the general of the right guard, in addition to the nearly 100,000 people of the Donggong Sixth under the command of Li Dan, she believed that with such strength, no matter what conspiracy Li Xian had, he would not be able to make any waves.
