Chapter 2235 Waiting for Death, What About the Dead Country?
"Everybody's in power?" Fang Xuanling frowned tightly and said, "What if there is a disagreement?" You say that I am talking about the east and I am talking about the west, who should I listen to? ”
Guo Ye said: "Of course, it is resolved by voting. One person, one vote, Tong Su is not bullied. ”
Fang Xuanling thought for a moment, shook his head again and again, and said, "No! Still no! As the saying goes, it is not up to everyone to decide what to do. With so many people discussing, the final result can only be tepid and nothing can be done. Not to mention ......"
"How?"
"People are born virtuous and unscrupulous, how can you ask the old man to have the same number of votes as those officials of the fourth or fifth grade? They deal with national affairs, can they have the experience of old men? Ten of them are tied together, can the old man make a clear decision? ”
Guo Yedao: "You don't have to worry about these problems. ”
"Why?"
"All the questions you are worried about can actually be boiled down to one question, that is, what should be done if such governance affects the overall situation of the country? In fact, this problem is not a problem at all, now that I am in the four provinces, the world is peaceful, isn't it just tepid to be in government? ”
"This ......"
"And most importantly, what is our purpose? Gain time to build a country overseas. What if the state affairs are not handled properly? What if all officials are separated from morality? Could it be that you still want this yamen to exist for thousands of years? ”
Fang Xuanling's eyes lit up, and he said: "That's right, this yamen is just temporarily managing national affairs, and sooner or later it will be returned to Your Majesty." What you want is procrastination, and what you want is unpopularity. The old man really wanted to leave just now. ”
"Then about the plan proposed by Guo......"
"The old man completely agrees."
……
……
That night, Guo Ye was taken by Li Liangchen to the familiar mansion. More than 100 "loyal ministers and righteous men" also arrived.
The old rule is that Fang Xuanling presides over the meeting.
At this time, the old man Fang had a bitter face, and placed a foot of white silk in front of him, a short sword and a glass of wine.
This looks like a standard set for suicide, and there is no need to ask, that glass of wine must be poisoned wine.
When people saw this scene, they all looked at each other and were puzzled.
Kong Yingda coughed and said, "Fang Xiang, what the hell is going on?" Who are you going to use these three things for? Could it be ...... There are traitors among us? ”
"Hey! What a traitor! Fang Xuanling said: "I can't hide it, these things are all prepared for me." I have a few words to share with you later. After the explanation...... I chose one of these three things and used it for myself! ”
"Fang Xiang, why do you bother? Yes, the state of Chu was destroyed, and Qu Yuan voted for the Miluo River, which became a good story for the ages. Now it is said that His Majesty's behavior is a little inappropriate, but how can our Datang still be far from the country? Even if you follow Qu Yuan's example, I'm afraid you won't get any good reputation. ”
Fang Xuanling sighed and said, "So far, how can I care about any good name, as long as I don't leave a reputation for eternity, I will be satisfied." I'll tell you the truth, I'm going to kill myself, and it basically has nothing to do with Your Majesty. ”
Kong Yingda was even more strange and said, "What does that have to do with it?" ”
"Alas, blame me! It's all my fault! The old man was negligent for a while, and he made a big mistake. ”
Guo Yedao: "The ancients said, it's not too late to make amends. Even if you make a big mistake, there are so many big guys, can't we just work together to help you remedy it? Why would you kill yourself? ”
"Can't make it up! I can't make it up! Fang Xuanling shook his head like a rattle and said, "Not only can't it be made up, but this matter will make you so tired that you will destroy your family." ”
"Not really, right?"
"Of course. Here's how it happened......"
It turned out that Fang Xuanling had a young servant named Li Siqiang. This Li Siqiang is very eye-catching, has a strong ability to do things, and is the confidant of the old man Fang.
Just yesterday, Fang Xuanling accidentally discovered that Li Siqiang was having an affair with his concubine. This made the old man angry, and he immediately ordered someone to beat him severely.
Speaking of which, Li Siqiang is also a ruthless person, and after being beaten, he tried to take revenge, and actually stole the genealogy of loyal ministers and righteous soldiers.
Speaking of this, Fang Xuanling's face was pale, and he said, "No need to ask, he handed over the genealogy of loyal ministers and righteous men to King Qi." After King Qi ascends the throne, one of the people sitting here is counted as one, and I am afraid that it will not end well. The old man mistakenly believed in the bandits, it was really a great sin, and he could only thank him for his death......"
As he spoke, he picked up his short sword and beckoned to his neck!
"The room is indispensable!" Guo Ye hurriedly stopped him and said, "Don't look for a short view, it's not that time yet." ”
"Then according to King Qin's meaning, when will the old man wait? Do I have to wait for the officers and soldiers to come and take people, and then I kill myself? What if it's too late? The old man would rather die than be humiliated by the little officials! ”
"It's not...... I didn't mean that. ”
Guo Ye said: "Yes, this genealogy of loyal ministers and righteous men has flowed out, but is the matter irreparable?" Not necessarily! ”
"Redemption? In two days, the king of Qi will be made the crown prince, how to redeem it? ”
Guo Ye ignored Fang Xuanling, but glanced around and said, "Everyone, at the last meeting, do you still remember what Fang Xiang said?" King Qi's conspiracy is probably divided into three steps. First, the concubine is the queen. Second, the abolished prince and the king of Qi. Its three lines stabbed His Majesty. ”
"Now, the first step has been completed. The second step is almost complete. I am afraid that soon after King Liqi became the crown prince, he asked Guo Yulan to assassinate His Majesty. Is it just that everyone is just watching His Majesty die? ”
Fang Xuanling said: "But now that Your Majesty has returned to governance, even if everyone really admonishes them, the chances of winning are not good." ”
"Is it a pity to serve the country? Loyal ministers are not afraid of death, and they are afraid of death and are not loyal ministers. What is death? For the sake of His Majesty's safety, shouldn't the big guy fight? Besides, even if you don't fight, when King Qi ascends the throne, will everyone be able to get a good deal? ”
As soon as the two sang and harmonized, they explained the pros and cons of this matter.
The military admonition may fail, and the family will be wiped out. If you don't admonish the soldiers, after the king of Qi ascends the throne, he will settle the accounts after the autumn, and he still has to raid the family and exterminate the clan.
How to choose these two things, even fools know.
What's more, the military advice is righteous - in order to save His Majesty Li Er. If you don't admonish you, you can only be executed in the name of forming a party for personal gain.
As a result, people have expressed that they will continue with the original plan and carry out military advice.
Of course, there are some old and serious people who keep their mouths shut.
Kong Yingda thought for a moment and said, "King Qin Chitose, I have a question for you next." If this problem is not solved, the old man will never agree to the war. ”
"Kong Shangshu has something to say, please speak."
"If the military advice fails, then of course everything is not tied. But what if it succeeds? How are you going to treat Your Majesty? If His Majesty is allowed to abdicate as the emperor, then Kong will never agree. I'd rather die than leave behind the reputation of a rebel and a thief. ”
Guo Ye and Fang Xuanling glanced at each other and showed a knowing smile. They knew that from now on, this meeting would be in the hands of the two.
Immediately, Guo Ye explained in detail the establishment of overseas countries and the parliamentary system.
In the end, he said: "Sage Yun, the Tao is not good, and it is not possible to float on the sea. If you cannot be forgiven by Your Majesty, it is also in line with the teachings of the saints to take refuge overseas. I don't know what Kong Shangshu thinks? “
"This ......" Kong Yingda thought for a moment and said: "It was recorded in the "Historical Records" that Yi Yin put Taijia in Tonggong. Three years later, the emperor repented and blamed himself for goodness. So Yi Yin returned to the emperor. After Emperor Taijia returned to the throne, he was very virtuous, and the princes returned to their hearts. King Qin wants to do the story of Yi Yin? ”
"Uh...... Pretty much. However, I am a little timid, after His Majesty returned to power, I did not dare to stay in Datang, and I could only build a country overseas. In this respect, I'm far worse than Yi Yin. ”
Kong Yingda nodded and said, "So good!" The king of Qin wants to emulate the sages, but the old man is not talented, and he is willing to attach the tail. ”
The most old-fashioned and upright Kong Yingda has found a theoretical basis for the military advice, and others have no opinion.
As a result, launching a military admonition became the consensus of everyone present.
Of course, that's not all. The military admonition is not something that can be launched if you want to, and everyone used to have this certainty because there were two people in key positions.
First, for Wei Chigong, he is the secretary of the military department. Second, for Li Ji, he is in charge of the Yamen of the Army's Guard.
With them, coupled with the influence of other people in the army, it is not difficult to launch a military admonition.
But now, Li Ji was ordered to retire, and Wei Chigong was even more miserable and was sent to prison in the Criminal Department. In this case, if the military admonition is launched again, not counting the factors of His Majesty Li Er's appearance, the probability of success is only fifty percent.
If His Majesty Li Er really ascended to the heights, the probability of success would be even lower. Calculated higher, but only two percent. If you count it low, I'm afraid it's less than one percent.
Therefore, how to admonish in the end, everyone is really at a loss.
The person who knows the most about soldiers here has to be said to be Li Jing, the Duke of Weiguo, who frowned and said: "Dispatching a large army to fight is really a good strategy." Not only is the odds of winning too small, but even if it wins, Chang'an will have to be beaten into nothing. It's a pity. ”
Guo Ye said: "Then what do you mean ......?"
"Is there a way to do the story of Xuanwumen?"
Guo Ye shook his head and said, "The change of Xuanwu Gate, after Your Majesty killed Jiancheng Yuanji, Gaozu can only pass on the throne to him." But this time, it was useless for everyone to kill Li You, the king of Qi. Your Majesty has so many princes, who can't pass it on? Unless ......"
"How?"
"Unless you stew Your Majesty in a spoonful, but this idea will definitely not be approved by everyone."
Li Jing said: "It's useless to kill the King of Qi, let alone kill Your Majesty." So...... How about imprisoning Your Majesty? ”
"Aren't you talking nonsense? If you have a way to imprison Your Majesty, why do you need to admonish you...... Hey, no......"
Speaking of this, Guo Ye's heart suddenly moved, and he said, "I have a way." ”
"What's the solution?"
"I'm afraid this matter will have to fall on Li Daliang......"
