On the 10th day of the first month of March, just after the night of the coup d'état, there was a sudden torrential rain, which lasted only one day, and then stopped the night. It is unusual for such weather to occur in the spring in Kannai, and a light fog falls at night, so that the sky and the earth are shrouded in a light mist, and the sky is hazy and foggy.

The emperor issued an edict, and Brother Fen, a figure who had long been marginalized, was actually going to be recalled to Chang'an to ascend the throne and become emperor. This became the first major event when forming a new pattern.

A few families are happy and a few are sad, and more people are disappointed and pessimistic, endless turmoil and coups d'état, impetuous ups and downs, and the interests of many upper-class people are not guaranteed, and they may be implicated at any time...... After a long time of chaos and peace, Li Longji was originally a hope, but now that he has been defeated, the flame of hope has been extinguished, and he has returned to the atmosphere since Empress Wu took power.

However, looking at this coup d'état from another angle, if the situation is a little calmer, if a relatively fair talent selection rule can be established, this dynasty will not be an opportunity to increase its political influence again against those forces other than the Guanlong family, especially the Shandong gate lords.

At this time, Lu Xiang first wrote a book about seven things, several of which won the hearts of the people: with an attitude of forgiveness, to prevent the expansion of Li Longji's "forced palace" incident, so that everyone was in danger; Appoint people to be meritorious, stop the awarding of oblique officials, and screen the current official through the guò palace examination and other methods, and those who are not good in moral integrity should be stopped......

……

The Flying Tiger Regiment was stationed in Xingqingfang to eat on the spot, and Xue Chongxun took off his armor on the 11th, put on a purple robe, and entered the palace to participate in the court meeting. As soon as the sky was bright, Princess Taiping convened important members of the imperial court to discuss important matters in the Zichen Palace, and most of the participants were senior members of the third rank or above, but Xue Chongxun was an exception, and his current status can be said to have soared a notch.

Now everyone is mainly trying to find ways to maintain law and order and stabilize the fruits of victory, and as for the new distribution of power, there is no urgency, and it will have to wait for King Fen to ascend the throne.

Shangshu Zhang, who had only recently taken refuge in the military department, said that he had not contributed half of his efforts during the coup d'état, and at this time he was extra active and immediately put forward the idea of disbanding the ten thousand cavalry.

"The generals can be arranged to serve in the sixteen guards of the southern ya, the soldiers are disbanded, and the northern army is all taken over by the left and right Yulin armies. When the situation is somewhat settled, the two armies can be newly formed to share the duties and powers of the Praetorian Guard. Zhang said, please.

Everyone knows that Wan Qi had a deep relationship with Li Longji in the past, but now that the die-hard elements inside have been killed, as long as the other generals are replaced, there is no danger. However, Zhang Shuo proposed a more radical and prudent approach...... Directly dissolved.

Taiping was very satisfied with Zhang Shuo, but Xiao Zhizhong and others said that there was no need.

At this moment, Yin Li Shouyi of Jingzhao Mansion stood up and said, "The minister thinks that the most important one should be the Flying Tiger Regiment!" ”

Everyone present was stunned, and couldn't help but cast a look of admiration at Li Shouyi. Xue Chongxun's Flying Tiger Regiment can be said to have made great contributions to the Jingyun coup, and the matter has just ended, so they have to unload the mill and kill the donkey so directly? Everyone muttered in their hearts, even if they were afraid that they would become hidden dangers, they couldn't say it to their faces! At least the twists and turns, the curve means should be used, Li Shouyi is really ......

When Xue Chongxun heard this, his heart was also blocked, and he said in his heart: Mom, this Li Shouyi is sorry for Mao Lao and me!

Li Longji was defeated, and the power fell into the hands of Princess Taiping, Xue Chongxun is now a celebrity, Li Shouyi is really not afraid of offending people? Everyone thinks that Li Shouyi has no backstage, and if he is an official like this, I am afraid that he will really come to an end.

Li Shouyi said with a straight face: "No matter who the ruler is, he should reduce internal friction and maintain justice." Those who have contributed to the country should be rewarded, but the brave private soldiers of the Flying Tiger Regiment are stationed in Beijing, isn't His Highness afraid that it will become the bane of turmoil? The Patriotic Gong was crowned the king and the Flying Tiger Regiment was rewarded for meritorious soldiers, and Li was the first to approve, but the Flying Tiger Regiment must no longer be twisted into a single unit and must be disbanded! ”

Everyone quietly looked at Xue Chongxun, and Princess Taiping, who was sitting on the top, also looked over. Now Xue Chongxun is not so uncomfortable in his heart, the Flying Tiger Group can fight, it is a good card in his hand, and it is also a kind of capital, and no one can bear it...... But now someone has made it clear: you are a hidden danger. What else could it be?

Xue Chongxun had no choice but to stand up and say: "Mother, I think what Li Fuyin said makes sense, with my identity, I don't have the right to hold so many private soldiers in the capital. ”

Unless it is the crown prince, who can raise so many armored soldiers under the feet of the world, and want to rebel?

Taiping groaned, lowered his head, and did not express his position for a long time; The people standing below didn't say much, and they all looked like they didn't care about themselves.

Before coming to Zichen Palace, Xue Chongxun really didn't expect that someone would catch the Flying Tiger Group so soon, and he was unprepared. But when Li Shouyi said this, Xue Chongxun didn't hate him, believing that he was indeed out of public intentions.

Xue Chongxun frowned and pondered, and at this time a thought came to him: You should know how to advance and retreat. Standing on the cusp of the storm and being remembered by a group of people may not be a good thing.

The mother didn't speak, what was she thinking? Xue Chongxun suddenly remembered her helplessness and fear before the coup, she was also weak and helpless, but now that the crisis has passed, the barrier in her heart has been filled again...... Even if she is a mother, a dear relative. Xue Chongxun couldn't help but sigh secretly when he thought of this.

At this time, his expression was awe-inspiring, and he saluted very sincerely: "Please mother order the disbandment of the Flying Tiger Regiment, but the soldiers who died in battle should be compensated, and those who have meritorious service should be rewarded to show fairness...... At the same time, Erchen recommended Li Fuyin to fill the vacancy of prime minister. ”

Taiping was a little surprised when he heard this, raised his head to look at Xue Chongxun, and said with great interest: "He just couldn't get along with you, and now you are doing this for fame, or is it for anger?" ”

Xue Chongxun said: "No, Erchen thinks that it is beneficial to use Li Fuyin for the country." At the time of today's royal road, in the final analysis, it is the rule of man, and the root of the rule of man is the rule of officials. Unlike the rule of law, our country needs wise people, otherwise no matter how good the system and decree are, it will be useless. Using people like Li Fuyin to participate in national politics is in line with Lu Ge Lao (Lu Xiangxian)'s proposal of meritocracy, please consider it. ”

Li Shou's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he couldn't help but look Xue Chongxun up and down with a different gaze, as if he had only met him for the first time today.

The term "rule of man" is relatively new to everyone, but everyone is familiar with "rule of officials", and they also agree with Xue Chongxun's views. Throughout the ages, the world is ruled by a large number of people, and the temple cannot be full of selfish villains who only seek profit.

Taiping showed a shallow smile: "I am in favor of using Li Shouyi as the prime minister, but the Flying Tiger Regiment does not need to be disbanded, and it will be changed to my name as my Praetorian Guard, and you will also lead the guard general." ”

"Mother......" Xue Chongxun suddenly couldn't understand it.

Taiping looked at Xue Chongxun and said in a very small voice: "Even you don't believe it, who else can I trust?" ”

"Your Highness think twice!" Li Shouyi didn't accept Xue Chongxun's recommendation at all, flicked the sleeves of his robe, and said categorically, "The minister doesn't want to be the prime minister!" The Flying Tigers can't act as janissaries! All the princes present, listening to Li's words, there are few people here, and there is no need to hide it, the emperor's power has been hollowed out, and now the power is in the hands of His Royal Highness, and the king of Fen is on the throne, and he is nothing more than a puppet. What is the difference between His Highness's Praetorian Guard and the Praetorian Army? Wei Guogong is the general of the Praetorian Guard, how is it different from mastering a force of the forbidden army? There was Li Sanlang in the past, and it was precisely because he mastered the forbidden army that he could threaten the emperor's throne, and the past was not far from the future world! Now that everyone is thinking about peace, isn't it an opportunity for His Highness, how can he bury hidden dangers and affect the overall situation? ”

Xue Chongxun was half sincere and half forced, and hugged his fists and said, "Mother, I agree with Li Fuyin's opinion. ”

Taiping sneered: "Hmph, how many people wish I couldn't die well, don't think I don't know!" I have made up my mind, Da Lang will be my Praetorian Guard general, and I will not say much. Two days later, the flying tiger group was transferred into the Xuanwu Gate, and when I left the palace, I stood left and right. ”

Li Shou sighed when he heard this, and said no more.

Xue Chongxun hurriedly knelt on the ground and bowed: "Erchen swears to defend his mother to the death." ”

Taiping waved his sleeves and said: "Disperse, wait for King Fen to enter Beijing and then discuss major matters, you must do your duty, and take the opportunity to be a traitor in Beijing, and those who bewitch the public with gossip will be severely punished!" ”

When everyone retired and walked out of the Zichen Palace, several people's attitudes towards Xue Chongxun were obviously more cordial. Among several prime ministers, except for the little white-faced Cui Xiang, Dou Huaizhen was the most spineless, and he was almost sycophant when he spoke: "Defending the country and talking about 'rule by man', the public heart is admirable, and we will be idle another day, how about everyone talk about it again?" ”

Xue Chongxun glanced at Li Shouyi, who was walking alone, and said with a smile: "Okay, then Dou Ge will arrange the time?" ”

Dou Huaizhen was very happy, and laughed in a low voice: "I dare to guarantee that from now on, the Weiguo Mansion will be more lively." If there are people who ask for officials who really can't push it over, you just need to give me a word, and Xiao Ge and I will think of a way. ”

Xue Chongxun pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said: "Don't be like this, you have to appoint people on the basis of merit, so that everyone can be stable, and the truth Dou Ge Lao understands." ”

Dou Huaizhen said: "Recommending virtuous and talented people is within my boundaries, and besides, what about a few people, it doesn't hurt." ”

"Prevent the slightest, we can't take the lead ourselves." Xue Chongxun said seriously, "Just like that little official Yu Wenxiao in the household department, he helped me a few times before, and he found out the murderer behind my plot last year. He asked me for an official, but I felt that his talent could only be an official at that level, so I didn't promise him, one yard is one yard, and you must distinguish between public and private! ”

Dou Huaizhen suddenly said: "Yes, what Wei Guogong said is extremely ...... Yuwen Hyo, that's the name, right? ”

Xue Chongxun nodded and said, "Leave him alone, I have already secretly passed the school examination, and my talent is very limited." ”

(I have a cold and fever, I took medicine today, and I hope to recover within two days, and I apologize to everyone for improving the update speed.) ）G
