Chapter 144: Checks and Balances on the Prison State

"Fourth brother! Now is not the time to say such things! ”

Sikong Jue frowned, and reprimanded with a little dissatisfaction, "At the beginning, Sikong Rong was in charge of the country and tyrannical and rebellious, so we jointly quelled the rebellion and elected Sikong Huang to supervise the country; But even if a person as elegant as Sikong Huang still can't escape the desire for power, he does something more terrible than Sikong Rong; Now that the royal family is jointly crusading against Sikong Huang, you, me, and the second brother are all authentic brothers of the emperor's relatives, how can you ignore the danger of the society and blindly shrink back because you want to do your filial piety for the concubine? ”

Sikong Cong raised his eyebrows slightly, ordered Mu Hibiscus to pour a full wine, took a sip and asked, "Then you say, what should I do?" ”

"All of you here are your own brothers, I have an idea, ask the second brother and the fourth brother to cut it."

Sikong Jue raised his eyes and bit his lip to look at Sikong Rui and Sikong Cong.

Sikong Cong raised his eyebrows, played with the wine glass in his hand, and motioned for Sikong Jue to speak.

Sikong Rui frowned tightly, and he really felt that the current situation was as dangerous as the fifth brother said.

Sikong Jue's eyes were clear, he looked at Sikong Rui and Sikong Cong, and told him word by word: "I think that all the turmoil in Luoyang before was caused by the concentration of power in one person, so this time to quell the rice famine, I suggest that the second brother, the fourth brother and I jointly supervise the country and assist the emperor, and the military power is also separated." In the future, major and minor matters between the DPRK and the Central People's Republic of China and the impeachment petition must be jointly stamped by the three people before they can be handed over to the emperor for review and decision-making. ”

"Fifth brother......" Sikong Ruiluo was a little embarrassed, "You know me, it's no problem to lead troops to fight, but if you want me to manage court affairs, mediate officials, and read those boring account books, I'm afraid I'm ...... It's hard to ......"

"Fifth brother", Sikong Cong lowered his eyes, took another sip of wine, and then slowly raised his eyes to look at Sikong Jue, and said slowly, "Your mind and bearing, the fourth brother admires and moves, but my mother is old, frail and sickly, greedy for her homeland, and expects me to serve her knees, I really can't stay in Kyoto and share the affairs of the DPRK and China with you." ”

"Fourth brother", Sikong Jue bit his lip, hesitated for a long time, and compromised, "Then can you ask the fourth brother to return to Yedu, exchange papers every day, refer to the chapters, and jointly assist in the affairs of the DPRK and China with me and the second brother?" ”

"What?" Sikong Cong opened his mouth slightly, slightly surprised, he didn't expect Sikong Jue to act like this.

Sikong Jue frowned, was silent for a long time, and sighed: "Now, Jiangzuo is divided, Bashu is in rebellion, and the people in Hebei and Henan are also in turmoil because of the rice shortage...... We need our collective help to protect it. ”

"Fifth brother", Sikong Cong lowered his eyes, played with the wine glass in his hand, was silent for a long time, and sighed in a deep voice, "I didn't expect you to have such thoughts at such a young age." Even though the fourth brother is thinking of filial piety for his mother, he feels very ashamed to listen to your words. As an authentic relative, the fourth brother is willing to stand side by side with you and the second brother to protect the country and society for the emperor. ”

"Fifth brother...... Sikong Rui gritted his teeth and slammed his fist on the table, "Damn, look at the account book and fold the old man's embroidery...... Annoy, just annoy! The second brother is willing to join you! Protect the country for the emperor! ”

"Fourth brother, second brother......" Sikong Jue's eyes were filled with tears and he choked up slightly, "Thank you!" ”

"Fifth brother, don't say polite words!" Sikong Rui waved his hand violently, stepped on the table with one foot, and bent down to support his knees, "If there is anything, you just command!" What the hell are we going to do! ”

"Second brother", Sikong Jue gritted his teeth, was silent for a moment, and informed, "Sikong Huang's rice famine case can prevail, one is because he is in charge of the country alone, and his power cannot be controlled; Second, there are really no loyal generals who dare to speak out. Like Wang Xing, who shrunk his head and only seeks self-preservation, he can no longer serve as the Zhongshu Order, I suggest that the Zhongshu Order be replaced by Shi Shao, in case any of us are greedy for profit and vainly trying to fish and flesh the people, so I will speak up and admonish to prevent the slightest slight. ”

"Shi Shaogongzi, I agree!" Sikong Rui patted his leg and happily agreed, "From rejecting Lu Mi Jinlan Valley's invitation, to resigning from Sikong Rong, and then to rebelling against Sikong Huang this time, everything that Shi Shao Gongzi did was done by a gentleman!" If he is appointed as the secretary of the order, he will not be obscene with wealth and power, and he will not sit idly by and ignore those who are in trouble for officials! ”

"The two princes are really too high-minded...... Shi Shao is ashamed! ”

Shi Shaoyuan served beside Emperor Hui, listened to Sikong Jue's recommendation, Sikong Rui echoed, hurriedly bowed down, and humbly said, "Shi Shao's qualifications are dull, and he is appreciated by the two princes with a sincere heart, and he is sincerely afraid, and he feels very honored." However, the position of Zhongshu Ling is very responsible, and Shi Shao's qualifications are still shallow, so should the two princes think twice? ”

"Shi Shaogongzi, the so-called gentleman's integrity, not lewd in the rich, not succumbed to might, not moved to the poor, it is not easy to do one of them, not to mention that you can do all three, you are already very human, this quality is precious, why is it dull?"

Sikong Jue turned sideways to Shi Shao and persuaded earnestly, "Don't be humble." ”

"Lord Jue......" Shi Shao bit his lip, was silent for a long time, and agreed, "Shi Shao is willing to listen to the prince's orders!" ”

"Your Majesty", Sikong Jue heard this, so he turned to Emperor Hui, bowed to him, and said, "As the younger brother said, Luoyang has repeatedly made trouble, all because there is no one to limit his power. In the future, the impeachment petition must be jointly stamped by the three of them before it can be handed over to the emperor for review and decision-making. Wang Xing shrank due to the incident, and it was difficult to bear a heavy burden, so he could no longer serve as the Zhongshu Order, and his younger brother recommended Shi Shi to be promoted to the Zhongshu Order. In order to prevent the checks and balances from falling into one person, the younger brother asked to hand over the military power of the Kyoto garrison and let the second brother take over; The palace guards continued to be led by Sikong Bo. ”

"What?!" When Sikong Rui heard this, he was almost shocked and asked, "Are you willing to continue to use Sikong Bo?!" ”

"Second brother......" Sikong Jue's eyes rolled, and he looked at Sikong Rui with some embarrassment, and after a while, he made up his mind to say, "Since the Lu family's rebellion, Luoyang has experienced several catastrophes, all because of the dictatorship of the prison state; The reason why the dictatorship of the state can prevail is because the military power is concentrated in the hands of one person; Therefore, after this time, I thought about it seriously......"

Sikong Jue hesitated for a moment, but he was still ruthless, and bluntly made it clear, "If you want to prevent the prisoners from dictating power again, you must separate the military power of the prisoners." The third brother's old department is mostly the soldiers and horses of the garrison battalion, and the soldiers remember the old feelings of the third brother and are willing to listen to my orders, so I will hand over the military power of the garrison battalion and let the second brother be in charge; The Kyoto Praetorian Guard was led by the second brother for many years...... Now, it's time to change the power of the people. ”

"But you can't change Sikong Bo either!" Sikong Rui got up angrily and asked, "Have you forgotten that a few days ago, who held the emperor hostage at the palace gate and forced you to submit?!" Don't you forget that in the first place, who wanted to put the emperor and queen under house arrest in order to protect Sikong Huang?! Such a person who aids in the rebellion of the torturers, you want to put the emperor's safety in his hands?! ”
