Chapter 798 is the most Liang Bo Emperor's family
After Du Anzhi rushed to the Shanzhou Governor's Mansion, because Du Shiyi went to the Lintao army, Wang Rong came forward to receive him, so he learned the bad news one step earlier. She knew that Du Siwen could be called the elder of the same clan that her husband respected the most, so when she heard Du Dizhi's funeral report at this moment, Du Shiyi stood dumbfounded, her eyes were blank, she was afraid that she would not be able to accept it at once, so she quickly stood up and helped him sit down. It was a long time before she heard her husband let out a long sigh and then buried his head between his hands, and she was relieved.
It's good to finally accept this fact!
"Gloom, since you said that when you arrived at Zhupo Mountain, the old uncle was only seriously ill, how did he go, you told me the original."
Hearing Du Shiyi's voice choked, Du Anzhi sorted out his thoughts and said: "Because I and Wangzhi have fulfilled their filial piety, and Wangzhi intends to join the army to wash away the stigma because of my brother's previous admonition and teaching, so I went to Chang'an Zhupo to meet the old uncle at his request, hoping that the old uncle could give him a favor, so he let him join the army in Longyou. Princess Han was also present at that time, she knew that the old uncle was concerned about my brother, so she took me into the meeting, and sure enough, the old uncle told me a lot of words, and asked me to forward a letter to my brother. Then for three whole days, the old uncle stayed asleep and did not wake up, and finally the immortal died. β
These simple words were the life and death of the person he respected the most, and Du Shiyi only felt tears filling his eyes. He has been going on for so many years, and among the people who are most concerned about him, there are his mentor Lu Hong, Du Siwen, Yuan Qianyao and Song Jing. The latter two, one is the boss, and the other is a famous minister who appreciates his temperament and ability, and now one is dead and the other is retired, but they are different from the first two. Thinking that Du Siwen had shielded himself from a lot of ups and downs, but now he didn't catch up with the last side, he finally tasted the pain and sorrow when Wang Rong returned to Beijing, but he was separated from the princess of the Golden Immortal, and he was not as sad as when he saw the last side.
"Show me the letter." The simple five words made him feel as if he had exhausted all his strength.
Du Anzhi hurriedly stepped forward and presented the copper cylinder in his hand. I saw the white wax seal, and the seal on it was not Du Siwen's seal, but the handwriting was faintly visible. He carefully distinguished, only to see that it was written by Du Siwen himself, sealed on a certain day, a certain month, and paid Du 19. Although he didn't know if Du Siwen left such a suicide note to his children, he still didn't feel a throbbing in his heart. When he found that there was a small copper lock on the copper cylinder that locked the seal, he was even more surprised, stared at Du Anzhi and asked, "How can there be a lock on this?" β
After Du Anzhi took the things, he hid them carefully, and galloped to Huangshui City in Shanzhou in the starry night. Thinking of Du Siwen's instructions at that time, he said thoughtfully: "The old uncle is already a little confused, and I am a little difficult to distinguish what he said, as if to say, whether this letter brother can see depends on fate, and whether the road is smooth...... I didn't hear anything else. β
So, this copper cylinder mechanism for carrying the letter was set up by Du Siwen a long time ago? The reason why he didn't give Du Anzhi the method of opening was because he was worried that something would go wrong on the road? Although he said that he was out of the town, he did not have a mortal enemy like Wang Mao Zhong in the past, why is this so?
Du Shiyi was cautious by nature, and although he wanted to find out what Du Siwen had told him in the letter, he still did not rush to try to open the copper cylinder. However, for Du Anzhi, a cousin who came all the way to come, he had to ask carefully, and when he learned that Du Anzhi had now reported the news of the removal to the Ministry of Officials and was about to start his candidacy again, he groaned.
"Gloomy, in your opinion, your brother has been serving filial piety at home for more than two years, and he has made progress compared to before? Has my uncle's temper changed compared to before? β
asked his younger brother Du Wangzhi first, and then asked his mother-in-law Wei, which made Du Anzhi a little unexpected. But he was the most respectful to this brother, and after careful consideration, he said honestly: "Wangzhi's temper is much more restrained than before, he hasn't even gone out for more than two years, and he has never touched a servant girl during his filial piety, and he practices his bow and horse very diligently, and often asks me about reading, if I don't see it with my own eyes, I think he has changed a person in his bones." As for Ah Niang, she was seriously ill after Grandpa's death, and she was not as bitter and mean as before, but she still ignored me and Ah Yuan most of the time. β
This is normal, to make the strong Wei Shi bend his waist to the concubine and daughter-in-law, this is more sad than killing her!
Du Shiyi bowed slightly, and then ordered: "Now the secretary of the ministry is Li Wei Li Gong, who once served as Taiyuan Yin, and the servants of the ministry are Pei Kuan and Xi Yu, two of the three are familiar with me, but Li Linfu has been in the ministry for many years after all, and because there has been an example of Shiquan before, you have also seen this year's selection, and once again used the Shiquan method to encroach on the authority of the ministry, so it is easy to say hello to your affairs, but if you ask for beauty, I am afraid it will attract attention." Gloomy, I only ask you, do you dare to face difficulties and go to an extremely difficult place? β
Without Du Shiyi, he may still be doing nothing now, and Du Anzhi is naturally very convinced of this cousin who is like a father and a teacher. He nodded without much hesitation: "Brother please also command, even if it is a place of long-term war, I am willing to give it a try!" β
"Good, good!"
Du Shiyi showed a smile of appreciation, and after saying hello to Wang Rong, he took Du Anzhi out of the city. When he entered Zhenqiang Zhai, he motioned Du Anzhi to follow him to the huge sand table on that side, and pointed a little more heavily in a place further west of Shanzhou: "Anxi Dadu Hufu records to join the army, are you willing to do it?" β
In the land of the four towns of Anxi, the Qiang and Hu people live together, and there are far more Hu people in the four towns than the Han people, and even the soldiers of the four towns are mostly of different races, which is a real place of long-term war. Needless to say, the invasion of Tibet was also carried out by the Tuqi Shi, who was also facing the Tang Dynasty as a minister, and often attacked by arsonists, coupled with various rebellious Qianghu, it can be said that the situation is complicated. Therefore, the generals of the four towns of Anxi are often fathers, sons and brothers, and the civil officials who serve in the Anxi metropolitan protectorate are either promoted locally, or the deputy metropolitan protector of Anxi and the envoy of the four towns are recruited, and few are transferred from the Central Plains. Even if there are such civil officials, they are often seen as moving to the left.
Du Anzhi took a deep breath and replied in a deep voice: "The only thing that is dark is the life of the elder brother!" β
After giving Du Anzhi an opportunity, Du Shiyi asked him to bring a letter back to Du Wangzhi. In the letter, he warned Du Wangzhi that although he now knows the right section of Longyou, but the right army of Longyou will not accept outsiders, unless he thinks that he has the courage of ten thousand people, otherwise if he goes to Hehuang to join the army, there will be all kinds of harm and no benefit, and it is recommended that he go to Yunzhou first, hone his martial arts under Hou Xiyi, and then make plans after two years. If Du Wangzhi can listen to him, then he is naturally willing to hone this cousin well, see if he has any talents, and then do cultivation. If he doesn't want to, then he will let it go.
About ten days after Du Anzhi left Shanzhou and returned, the official funeral messenger from Fan Chuan also arrived at the Shanzhou Governor's Mansion. This time, the messenger who came from afar brought something that Du Siwen had given him on his deathbed. These include two volumes of Wang Xianzhi's calligraphy wrapped tightly in oilcloth, a few pieces of ancient jade that can be used to engrave seals, and two old handkerchiefs, three jade scratchers, and two golden hairpins, which seem to have everything in pieces, which is obviously Du Siwen's deathbed gift to his relatives. After receiving the things, he asked the messenger a few more words, and when he found that this person only knew what to do with the message, he also rewarded him and let him go.
However, when he asked Wang Rong to sort these things and put them away, and when he returned to the dormitory in the evening, he saw his wife looking at the light and contemplating a golden hairpin. Seeing this, he stepped forward and asked with some surprise, "What, do you like this old thing that your uncle used?" The golden hairpin looked to have faded in color, and it was not as good as the patterns that were now popular, and it was used by men. β
"Du Lang, look at this." Wang Rong pointed to the middle of the golden hairpin, and then gently rotated, it was actually divided into two halves, and the head of one of them was an extremely peculiar shape. Seeing Du Shiyi's eyes widen suddenly, she said softly, "I heard you talk about your uncle's letter before, and today I deliberately examined these things carefully, and I found such a mechanism." Du Lang, do you think this will be the key to the Shengxin copper cylinder? β
Wang Rong said this, coupled with the peculiar shape, it was indeed like a key, Du Shiyi thought about it again and again, and finally decided to give it a try. When he retrieved the copper cylinder from the bottom of the box again, and inserted half of the golden hairpin into it, he only heard a very small soft sound, and then the locked lock popped open. Surprised and delighted, he hurriedly cut open the sealing wax, reached out into the copper cylinder, and took out a roll of letterhead from it. It was a long, sloppy scroll of letters, apparently written after he had fallen ill, but it was quite a word, and the more it came later, the more illegible it became.
Until that kind of moment when his strength was not enough, Du Siwen still didn't let others write it!
The letter said a few things in bits and pieces. One of them is a strange case that happened in Chang'an recently, but Du Shiyi also paid attention to it in the past, and Zhang Xiansu was falsely accused of rebellion by Yang Wanqing. At that time, Zhang Xiansuqi was beheaded and his whole family was gone, and his second son went to Lingnan. Du Shiyi also ordered someone to go to Lingnan to search for him because of Yang Wanqing's collusion with Li Linfu, but in the end he failed to find the two children. After a few years, these two children, a thirteen-year-old and an eleven-year-old child, did what amazed adults, that is, the enemy Yang Wanqing was stabbed on the street, avenged his father, left a book and absconded, and was going to kill another person who conspired with Yang Wanqing, but unfortunately was captured by the government!
Because Yang Wanqing had just returned to the dynasty and re-entered the imperial history platform not long after, someone rehashed his bad deeds and asked for forgiveness for the two filial sons, but among the three prime ministers in the political affairs hall, Zhang Jiuling thought that he should be pardoned for death, but Li Linfu and Pei Yaoqing never agreed, thinking that although the circumstances were extenuating, they could not destroy the national law, and the Son of Heaven ordered the Henan Mansion to be killed with a cane. After that, the people's private mourning continued, thinking that it was someone in the court who was avenging Yang Wanqing, and the memorial to the two filial sons was even posted on the streets of Tongqu Avenue.
Thinking that such a tragic case could have been avoided, Du Shiyi couldn't help but sigh, and then noticed Du Siwen's comments that were like ordinary private words.
"Zhang Zishou wants to live because of his pity for his filial son, and Pei Yaoqing deserves to die because of national law, and this public heart is also. But Li Linfu wanted to cause his death, but because of him, he re-entered the imperial history platform, and now he died unexpectedly, if the murderer is killed, the authority will be gone, so he insisted. And His Majesty came out from above because of the rebellion, and if he took pity on his filial son, it would be tantamount to admitting his mistake, so he used the word national law as a prevarication. It's a pity that Zhang Xiansu's two sons are dead, and they will never be seen again! If you pity his filial piety, give him a donkey and hang, he can also reduce the pain, and now he kills with a rod, and everyone in the market is compassionate! β
Du Shiyi clenched the letterhead when he boarded, and his heart only felt as if he had pressed a boulder. The father was slandered and rebelled, if the son was not unable to seek redress, why would he do such a drastic thing at a young age? Thinking back then, Du Fu's grandfather Du Xianyan was slandered by his colleagues and could die in prison, Du Fu's uncle Du was only thirteen years old, armed with a sharp blade to assassinate the mastermind, although he was unfortunately killed in the end, but after all, he dragged the man to die together. And it was because of such a son that Du Xianyan escaped. Is the law strict and not blasphemous? If the law is really able to keep the good from being aggrieved, there must first be a discerning lawyer and even a king!
In the early Tang Dynasty, there was originally a strict repeat system for the death penalty, and the death penalty was originally only beheaded and hanged. The so-called legal system is simply a joke!
He fixed his mind and looked down again, but saw that Du Siwen extended from this, and evaluated the three prime ministers who are now in power, but said that Zhang Jiuling was too rigid, and he often spoke up to the Son of Heaven with enthusiasm and direct advice, even if Li Longji could tolerate it for a while, it might not last long; And Pei Yaoqing is a practical talent, better at financial planning, a person who is soft in government, and respects Zhang Jiuling as a person, so except for such cases, there are few disputes, and the Chinese book is like a whole. Although the decree is smooth and the talents are promoted, but in the long run, although the government is stable, the Son of Heaven can't help but think that he is a friend. What's more, neither Zhang Jiuling nor Pei Yaoqing support the abolition of the East Palace.
By now, Du Shiyi has figured out why Du Siwen took so much trouble when sending this suicide note. The content of this letter is too in-depth and sharp, and if it is left in the hands of others, it will definitely be used to make trouble. While glad that Du Anzhi's journey to the west was smooth, and on the other hand, he secretly sighed that the messenger behind him had not encountered any twists and turns, otherwise he would not know how much work it would take to see this letter, he quickly settled down and continued to look down, and suddenly his heart sank again.
Du Siwen actually pointed out that it was not so much that Concubine Wu Hui was using the matter of choosing a concubine for King Shou to test whether he supported King Shou, but that Concubine Hui was testing the true intentions of today's son. It's one thing to know that bedside whispering is another, but it's another thing to act. Concubine Wu Hui has almost dominated the harem in the middle palace for more than ten years, but the position of the East Palace seems to be unstable, but it has not changed people for more than ten years, and Concubine Wu Hui can't wait. Yunu is Princess Yuzhen's beloved apprentice, and he has learned the pipa from him, if the Son of Heaven finally nods to this marriage, then it means that Li Longji has broken the convention of choosing concubines for the princes and kings, not from people with deep backgrounds!
In other words, Shouwang is special. In this way, Concubine Wu Hui's determination to try her best to overturn the East Palace can be strengthened! And the Son of Heaven is actually taking advantage of this kind of temptation. Therefore, how far can you hide, at this time, even if you have the old master-apprentice love for Yunu, you might as well try to cut it off, this is Du Siwen's warning to him.
"Damn!"
Du Shiyi angrily slammed down on the bed board and said angrily: "It's ...... to test this kind of thing."
"Du Lang, what did the old uncle say in the letter?" Wang Rong saw that Du Shiyi's face changed greatly, and she could even be said to be enraged, she couldn't help but hold her husband's hand tightly and asked. Seeing that Du Shiyi pursed her lips and didn't mean to answer at all, she couldn't help but comfort in a low voice, "No matter what, as long as you plan early, there will never be no way." Isn't there a way out that you painstakingly asked your sister to arrange? β
"That's the last way, if it doesn't get to the step of nine deaths and no life, I won't take that move!" Du Shiyi carefully read Du Siwen's letter, and greatly admired the old man's judgment before he died, so he handed it to Wang Rong on the side. While he lowered his head and read quickly, he stood up and walked slowly to the door of the dormitory, both on his face and in his heart, all gloomy.
The reason why he fled from the two capitals again and again was that he was disgusted with the way of seizing the heirs in the harem of political disputes in the court, and hoped that he could exert some punches outside and create a world with his own will, but even if he was two thousand miles away from Beijing, he was still closely linked to the changes in that place, and even life and death, honor and disgrace were connected to it.
"Du Lang ......"
Wang Rong finally completely digested the contents of Du Siwen's suicide note, and his heart was suddenly cold. She came behind her husband, and after reaching out and hugging him tightly, she said in a voice that was almost trembling, "How can this be? His Majesty is the son of heaven of a country and the father of the princes. As for Concubine Hui, she is also his favorite concubine, if he really thinks like this, he is not afraid ......"
"That is, the old uncle is about to die, so I hope to remind me not to wade into that troubled water, how many people dare to guess so?" Du Shiyi smiled, seeing that there was no one in front of the dormitory, obviously because Wang Rong had already given orders. He let his wife cling to his back, and said word by word, "Your Majesty is old, the prince is old, and the princes in front of us are suspicious of the Tang Dynasty because of this reason, so that in the end, they either abolished the East Palace, or seized power in a coup d'Γ©tat like His Majesty today." Therefore, those who support the crown prince seem to be rewarded for their loyalty, but who knows if they will be regarded as people who want to make political bargaining chips and hope to be reused after the crown prince ascends the throne in the future? β
After a slight pause, he said softly: "Your Majesty's taboo against the prince is not because of Concubine Hui's instigation, nor because of her preference for King Shou, nor whether there is support behind the prince, whether there is power; It's just that just because the prince has been in the East Palace for more than ten years, he is already old, and he is friendly with King E, the king of light, and the officials regard him as the prince, but the prince is left out because of the early death of his mother, and he may have resentment, which is enough. Because of this kind of thinking, when His Majesty was in the East Palace today, how could he never have it! Resentment has always been the source of the prince's rebellion. From Li Chengqian, Li Chongjun, and then to the current Majesty, the difference is only that the first two lost, and His Majesty won. β
The crown prince of the Tang Dynasty has always been a high-risk profession, and so is the crown princess!
In front of his wife, he did not shy away from uncovering the Tanglong coup d'Γ©tat in which Li Longji was able to take sole power, and then said coldly: "Take advantage of Concubine Hui's eagerness to replace this prince who is now becoming more and more unpleasant, and then kill or expel him, and then use it to regret it afterwards, not to establish King Shou, but to set up other older princes as princes, and then to Concubine Hui sighed that the people's will is inviolable, if Concubine Hui or the courtiers who support King Shou, they will keep an eye on the next prince and wait for an opportunity." In other words, if the cycle goes on and on, he doesn't have to worry about the East Palace sitting big. His Majesty is the one who has the world because he was forced by the East Palace to return to power, so he is almost a thief-proof prince! β
He finally understood why Li Longji in history later abolished Li Heng's crown princesses Wei and Du Liangdi, and deposed a large number of Wei Du's two families, and even after Wang Zhonghei was demoted, he let Li Heng go, but it turned out that because Li Heng's wings had been completely cut off, almost no one in the court dared to heart the prince, and Li Heng's good baby appearance was too confusing, so he was satisfied and took it!
Wang Rong was already frightened, but at this moment, he calmed down: "Now that the matter is over, what is Du Lang going to do?" β
"Although my sister hasn't been with Yunu for a long time, she knows my heart very well and will definitely try it. With her in Luoyang, I can trust her. But even if my sister secretly sent someone back to Liangjing in her early years to make friends with the powerful and take care of the industry for her, after all, she was not as good as someone born in Si Zhang Yusi, and I plan to send Chibi back to assist her. He was Zhao Guogong's confidant back then, and he had done all kinds of secrets since I had done it for many years, and this time it was most appropriate for him to do it quietly. Moreover, I have to give a generous gift to Colliers.
The old uncle said in the letter that His Majesty set up a festival in the border town to make a heavy army, which seemed to be very trusting, but it was inevitable that he would have concerns in his heart, and that there were often people who impeached the handsome and domineering, such as the impeachment of my nepotism, and all the people around me were private, etc., so His Majesty planned to send eunuchs to inspect the sides and assess whether he was competent or not. The eunuchs in the palace have different temperaments, most of them have good money, although I do not hesitate to use wealth to send it, but the problem is that not everyone can stand as tall as Colliers Yang Siqiao. If this person is revealed, the gain will outweigh the loss. β
"Du Lang is worried that if the eunuchs patrolling the border ask for bribes everywhere, but they are exposed when they turn around, the bribe-giver will ...... instead."
"Yes, so in order to avoid this, I simply bet a lot on Colliers. Hmm, add one more Yang Siqiao. β
At that moment, Du Shiyi personally burned Du Siwen's handwritten letter, and then went out of Lu to Zhenqiang Zhai, so that Wu Tianqi found Chibi, and let Wu Tianqi stay outside. After talking to Chibi about Du Siwen's inferences and the intricate situation in Luoyang City today, he was shocked to see this big man who was now nearly fifty years old but still burly and strong.
"In my lifetime, I first followed the late Cui Shangshu to meet His Majesty Zhongzong; Then with Zhao Guogong after Wei, he greeted His Majesty Ruizong; If it weren't for the fact that Zhao Guogong was not a courtier of the current Majesty, I am afraid that there would be a coup d'Γ©tat by Tang Long. For more than 20 years, I thought that the world was peaceful and prosperous, and I didn't have to worry about the precariousness, who would have thought that the palace would be like this again, and even the foreign ministers! β
This kind of palace political struggle that is unimaginable to ordinary people, Chibi has participated in it twice in a row, not so much because of his loyalty to the royal son, but because he was taken in by the Cui family since he was an abandoned baby, learned martial arts, and followed the Cui family brothers for many years, that kind of loyalty that was willing to die. At the beginning, Cui Gezhi transferred him to Du Shiyi, and he made it very clear to him in private, because time was running out, and he couldn't bear to waste his art industry naked, Du Shiyi trusted him with all his heart, and now his children are living a prosperous life, so he naturally dedicated his loyalty to the new master.
What's more, from Du Shiyi's attitude towards Yu Wenrong, who had fallen to the bottom of his career and was difficult to make a comeback, he was completely impressed.
"Ever since I found the note pressed under that cup of ice cream in the palace, I asked you to deploy it in the North Gate Forbidden Army and the palace, just in case. Now, you will go to Chang'an for me to worship Zhu Po Jingzhaogong, and then you don't have to come back, go to Luoyang, and first give Gao Lishi and Yang Siqiao a heavy gift, don't want any gold and silver wealth, use the field, not limited to orchards, mountains, rivers, wheat fields, but the amount must be considerable enough to impress people! Then try his best to find out all kinds of relevant news, send it to Princess Gu'an, and listen to her dispatch. She and I are like sisters and brothers, and they are not inferior to men in their decisiveness, and everything in Beijing is decided by her, even if you do it, you don't have to ask me! β
Du Shiyi knew that the difference was a thousand miles, he was far away from Shanzhou, which was more than 2,000 miles away from Luoyang, and the whip commander was slow to react, if he had to ask him for advice on everything, then he would inevitably delay the opportunity. And Chibi naturally understood such a truth, he immediately sat upright, and then bowed and saluted: "Lord Lang rest assured, this trip to the Eastern Capital must only obey the orders of your lord!" "The concubine is also his favorite concubine, if he really thinks like this, he is not afraid ......"
"That is, the old uncle is about to die, so I hope to remind me not to wade into that troubled water, how many people dare to guess so?" Du Shiyi smiled, seeing that there was no one in front of the dormitory, obviously because Wang Rong had already given orders. He let his wife cling to his back, and said word by word, "Your Majesty is old, the prince is old, and the princes in front of us are suspicious of the Tang Dynasty because of this reason, so that in the end, they either abolished the East Palace, or seized power in a coup d'Γ©tat like His Majesty today."
