Chapter 472: Manifesting the Mandate of Heaven
Baifeng Building.
This is one of the most luxurious liquor stores in Chang'an, and before nightfall, it is already full of guests.
At the top of this wine shop, the owner Zhang Yicheng has already begun to write hard.
Baifeng Lou is an industry purchased by Zhu Lou, almost from the bartender to the shopkeeper, they are Shangguan Chen's henchmen, and their purpose here is to listen to the news.
In the past few days, it has obviously been very lively, and almost all the guests in this wine shop are either rich or expensive, but now they are mostly talking about the controversy between the DPRK and China about the establishment of 37 towns in the world.
There are more than 300 states in the Tang Dynasty, there are 1,573 counties, the territory is vast, originally the imperial court relied on fifteen provinces to divide the states and counties, but the Tao is only responsible for supervision, and has no real power, and now, Wei Hongmin, Wei Anshi and everyone wrote that they want to divide the world into 37 towns, set up governors, and give festivals.
Zhang Yicheng's duty is to report some news in the wine shop, and as for whether it is confirmed, it is not his responsibility.
At this time, he had already put down his pen and splashed ink on the paper: "There are more rumors that Wang Qin, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, strongly opposed, and Empress Wei was furious, and the next day, Wang Zhen, who joined the army in ten thousand years, sued for rebellion and was imprisoned on the same day." Wang Zhen, who joined the army for 10,000 years, is the second son of Wang Qin, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, and today Wang Qin has written a letter to accuse him. ”
"In a fool's opinion, the matter of building a town, has been a matter of course, Wei Xuanzhen's mansion, now has been a city, there are many Chang'an Haoqiang visited, it seems to have the heart to profit from this, the building has recently been rumored, Hebei towns, mostly led by the Wei family, Jiangnan towns, too. Even if the Cui family in Qinghe seems to have rumors that Cui Jing's son leads the sword Nanfengxiang Town, it can be seen that there are few opponents of the surnames, but there are many people who take advantage of this to make profits. ”
After writing this, Zhang Yicheng sighed. This is obviously a carnival, the Wei family is tantamount to packaging the wealth of the Li family at one time, and there is a so-called 'privatization', this move is more ruthless than Wu Zetian's usurpation of the Tang Dynasty, because Wu Zetian's usurpation of the Tang Dynasty will certainly make a group of cool officials benefit, but their interests are only temporary, and the Wei family is dividing the world. In addition to maintaining a certain control ability of the imperial court, retaining a part of the states and counties directly under the imperial court in each province, and maintaining a strong enough forbidden army, it is the state and county of the world and the people. All of them are divided into pieces, in addition to self-fattening, they are given to those wealthy families in the world.
Even the Qinghe Cui family, which has been excluded from the power center, actually has an arrangement. He was placed in Fengxiang Town in Jiannan, although this Fengxiang Town is remote, but it is a border town adjacent to the southwest. To a certain extent, the relationship is also important, and it is obvious that the rejected Cui Shizhong, seeing this scene at this time, may not jump to oppose it.
In this world, the so-called addition of officials to the knighthood, the so-called reward of money and grain, in fact, for the real wealthy family, there is no meaning, their grange is enough, most of them have been extremely ministers, they are almost married to the royal family, they want money and money, and they want grain and grain, but this festival is almost crowned as the lord of the princes, for many people, it is a great attraction.
Just like the Cui family's Fengxiang Town, although it is remote, in this reshuffle, in fact, it is not enough to share the benefits, but the Cui family has a big business, hundreds of years of family business, and countless talents have accumulated, even if it is only sealed to Jiannan, only the support of the clan is needed, and it will not be long before Fengxiang Town can become one of the top two princes in Jiannan Road.
It is precisely because they see hope that the Cui family has an ambiguous attitude towards it.
On the other hand, the Kwantung clan did not get a penny and a half benefit, this was obviously a carnival of the Wei family and some specific people, even if there were opponents, they were also praying mantis blocking the car.
Zhang Yicheng felt sad that the real master of the world, that is, His Majesty the Son of Heaven, actually contributed to this matter, the Li clan's relatives, there are countless people who beat their chests and stumbled, but it is a pity that after Wu Zetian usurped the Tang Dynasty, he attacked the Li clan with all his might, which has already made the Li clan's clan almost vulnerable, after Li Xian ascended the throne, most of the Wei family respected these 'relatives' openly, but secretly they were alienated and even suppressed, and now even if they want to oppose it, the DPRK and China can't hear their voices.
Zhang Yicheng was also born as a scholar, to some extent, he was a pro-Li faction, who opposed Wu Zetian in the past, and later opposed Wei, in his opinion, the root cause of all the troubles in front of him came from those women and relatives who were in trouble, but in order to make a living, he had to enter the Zhu Mansion and serve Shangguanchen.
And now, when he wrote down what he saw and heard in Luoyang, his heart was just desolate.
In the past, I always thought that the source of all chaos was the woman, but now it seems that it is Your Majesty who is really chilling.
He carefully stuffed the newspaper into the bamboo tube, then hid the bamboo tube in his sleeve, and went downstairs with a smile, downstairs is a private seat, the guests eat and enjoy the dishes, listen to the blowing, playing and singing, and are very happy, and some drunken people shout: "The Tang Dynasty is going to be finished, it is going to be over...... The Son of Heaven was blinded by a traitor......" The person on the side covered his mouth and said sharply: "Brother Zhou is drunk, don't talk nonsense, be cautious, be cautious." ”
A loud laughing voice came from another elegant room: "It is very likely that Zhongwu Town will be guarded by the Duke of Yan Guo, and General Heizhi and I will ...... Haha......"
Another humanitarian: "It is said that Henan Mansion is going to set up Shence Town, and the king of Hongnong County is also going to be the governor of Shence, is it also going to give the Festival?" Isn't this, Luoyang is no longer the eastern capital. ”
"I'm afraid that this is a deep meaning for Niangniang, and the eastern capital ...... Eastern Capital ...... Even if the Son of Heaven is not there, it is all ah, there is still an emperor in the capital, if there is no 'all', the emperor ......"
"Qin Shaoyou will definitely refuse."
"What if he refuses, now it is the trend of the times, and now it is about to come to fruition, how can his Luoyang come?"
Zhang Yicheng couldn't help but stop and frowned, he was particularly disgusted by these, and suddenly, he suddenly realized that he had always regarded himself as a citizen and courtier of the Tang Dynasty, but in the future, he was afraid that he would really be the people under the rule of Tiance Town, and from now on, would he really serve the governor of Qin from the bottom of his heart or from the bottom of his heart?
He shook his head, his eyes cleared, as if he had let go of a big stone in his heart, and he couldn't help but think, "This...... It must be the mandate of heaven, the mandate of heaven cannot be violated, the clan, presumably it will never be able to turn over again. (To be continued.) )
