Chapter 189: The Emperor's Hegemony
It's the middle of the month, and everyone must have a new monthly pass in their hands, and I am here to ask for the plea for this book.
"Wang Ce. Wang Ce!"
Tang Zheng bitterly repeated this name, which made countless people entangled and bleed.
Towering in the Imperial Garden, God sprinkled the snow again. It was another big blizzard, lightly covering countless lives and covering countless blood.
Just like seventeen years ago. Heavy snow also covered endless corpses and blood.
That year, this year, it was surprisingly cold, and the snow and blood were surprisingly large and surprisingly abundant.
Two forced uterus, two different results, for a mother and a son. No matter how many people died in the clan this time, the winner was king, Tang Zheng had nothing to say, because they did it once seventeen years ago.
"I should have known. It should have been. Tang Zhengjue was full of bitterness and remorse.
Why did Tang Wuqing ascend the throne as emperor twenty or thirty years ago? Because of his ambition and hegemony, because of his talent. That incident, as well as the emperor's seventeen years of forbearance, made many, many people forget that when the emperor was still a prince, he was a very methodical person.
Tang Zheng didn't think so, is there a difference between knowing and not knowing? Without the purge of this rebellion, the emperor and the imperial family are destined not to give up, they will not feel at ease, and that thorn cannot be pulled out.
The royal family always tries to avoid meddling in state affairs, and if you dare to ride on the emperor's head to and pee, then be prepared to accept the consequences.
Wang Ce's idea is very right, the emperor is a very difficult and risky profession, a qualified emperor, that must first be a qualified acrobat, a tightrope walker.
The emperor has to maintain a tightrope with the sectarian family, as well as the tightrope between the cabinet and the military academy, and even more importantly, a tightrope between him and the imperial family.
The sect has always been detached, you play yours, I play mine, I give you the face, nominally surrender, if your emperor really dares to throw his face over, the sect will dare to smoke.
Because of the physiognomy bachelor, the emperor can't easily throw his face at the cabinet. As for the generals, there is no need to say that. Royalty, that's also a tricky trouble. The emperor is really not easy, no one knows his suffering.
The three major martial arts sects of the imperial family were silent, and the emperor came leisurely: "Two imperial uncles, imperial brothers, what is the matter with this visit?"
Eunuch Wang has always been like a shadow around the emperor, and not many people really pay attention to his existence. But this time, no one dared to ignore him. The three major martial arts sects saluted one after another, and the old eunuch Wang returned the salute very politely.
Tang Zhengjue is more temperamental, and the surname Suo said bluntly: "Emperor, well, Your Majesty, I just want to ask." You have killed a lot of clans, that's it, why do you want to kill Wuzun and Tang Zhengyue of the imperial family. ”
The emperor suddenly smiled: "Do you really don't understand or fake don't understand, and you intend to intercede?"
"You!" Tang Zhengjue was furious, and was pressed by Tang Zheng to wake up to the fact that this emperor was not the one who could ride on his head and and pee before.
"Emperor, I just want to ask, do Tang Zhengyue and the Imperial Family Wuzun have to be wiped out, do they have to leave no room at all?" Tang Zhengyao's eyes burned and he said in a deep voice.
The emperor's expression was indifferent: "Those who should die must die, otherwise, I won't be able to sleep." The Great War is imminent, and I will not allow any mistakes. ”
Tang Zheng groaned: "Your Majesty, it's hard for them to cultivate, it's better to give them a chance to die on the battlefield." ”
The emperor bloomed with a fierce wrinkle: "No, I just want to use them to tell some people that I can't do without them." ”
Tang Zheng and Tang Zhengyao's eyes were on Tang Zhengjue, and sure enough, Tang Zhengjue's face immediately turned red, but he didn't have a seizure.
"Wang Ce, what do you want to do with Wang Ce, Emperor. God is evil, everyone gets it and punishes it, and I in the Northern Tang Dynasty will never allow God to be evil. Tang Zhengyao's eyes glowed: "Emperor, it's time for you to make a statement." ”
"Why, at this time, you still refuse to give up?" The emperor suddenly sneered: "Regardless of whether Wang Ce is a god or not, even if he is." I also secured him. ”
The emperor leaned forward, giving people an oppressive force, revealing ridicule: "Three, any question about Wang Ce is not a problem. I still say the same thing, if you want to kill Wang Ce, then step over my corpse first. ”
Tang Zheng and the three of them gasped, the emperor's attitude was too obvious. Tang Zhengyao was stunned: "Could it be that you didn't try so hard to protect Wang Ce just to stimulate the royal family?"
"Stimulate you?" The emperor's ridicule was ten times stronger: "I see that you still don't understand, and to stimulate you, you just do it." ”
"My purpose has never changed. That is to keep Wang Ce. ”
The emperor was calm and pityful: "You still don't know, why did the royal family end up like this? It's not entirely because of seventeen years ago, but because you want his life!"
"I will never allow it, whoever wants his life, I will take his life. ”
Tang Zhengyao and the three of them were stunned, the emperor was definitely not joking, judging from his expression, this attention was definitely only on this.
What is so surprising about Wang Ce? Tang Zhengyao and the others didn't think of it when they wanted to break their heads, and Tang Zhengjue suddenly said: "Your Majesty, there are rumors in the market that Wang Ce is your ......."
The emperor frowned and waved his hand tiredly: "Three, let's go, just cultivate carefully." As for state affairs, there is me, and you don't have to worry about it. ”
Tang Zhengyao and the three looked at each other, unwilling to leave. The emperor suddenly raised his head and shouted, "Wait a minute." ”
"Wang Ce is a key part of whether my Northern Tang Dynasty can achieve the hegemony of the ages. Only three of them know about this matter. ”
............ After the holiday, Wang Ce returned to work in Liangya, maintaining an interesting and boring workplace. However, about everyone knows that this young master is the master who can't be provoked, and no one will dare to provoke him for a while.
So, Wang Ce was very tasteless, and occasionally he wished to come to a few ** to find trouble.
However, his Wang Ce's wish is probably hopeless. Just the seventeen-year-old commander of the two yas, this is very absurd, and no official in his right mind will provoke him, a young man who runs to the command at the sight of him.
If this is not enough, during the counterinsurgency, Wang Ce's behavior of controlling the two yamen and even the big internal camp is enough to show that there is someone above Wang Ce, and the person above him is still everyone's top boss.
Eating too much? To provoke this lord like a demon king of the world? The fate of the royal family is not enough? It is rumored that the emperor has this rebellion in order to protect Wang Ce.
The civil official has a backbone, but that thing is not instigating you to take the initiative to provoke the demon king of the world. And there is no princess to save you, you run to challenge the evil dragon?
A rebellion against the palace brought some lingering bloody gas to the capital, and also brought some changes.
First of all, in the court, Wang Shouwang Shou Shou Shoufu decided to wait for the transition of this period to return to his hometown. This gossip was widely circulated, and Wang Ce knew that it was true, and the emperor had approved it.
If Li gradually does not die, it is estimated that he will join the cabinet. However, this vacant cabinet position is currently being fought for by civilian officials in private.
Secondly, the military generals of Dajiang Mansion have basically been replaced from top to bottom. However, the position of the governor of Dajiang Prefecture is still vacant, and rumors have popped up out of nowhere that Xie Shimian will take office.
Frankly speaking, Bei Ya and Wang Ce both thought that Xie Shimian was more suitable to be a general. However, after the rebellion, Wang Ce knew why the emperor had to be the commander of the Northern Ya.
A Tan Ji Ru already has bad intentions, if Beiya gets out of control again, the emperor will basically become blind and deaf. The emperor has two more martial emperors, and most of them don't dare to take such a risk.
It is not very proper for Xie Shimi to be the governor of the capital, and he usually retires directly. However, there is no shortage of precedents for the transfer of commanders below Tongzhi into the military system. The emperor threw it out at this time, probably because he wanted to pass while the hundred officials were scrambling for bones.
At this point, the pressure on the emperor will not be too great. On the contrary, it is far less stressful than Wang Ce's position in the two offices.
Then, Tan Jiru fled on the charge of rebellion, and Xu Chonglou temporarily took the position of commander of Nanya.
Jiang Baishu, as Tan Jiru's staff counselor, was pushed to the end, but fortunately, he didn't lose his life. Tong Xihua, the counselor, does not belong to Tan Jiru's staff, but he has nothing to do.
After the emperor returned from the northwest, many people were eyeing or expecting rewards for meritorious deeds. No matter from which point of view, Wang Ce is obviously a great achievement.
Nan Ya is looking forward to it, but the civil officials are eyeing it, and they can't wait to make up for Wang Ce. However, when the emperor's reward came, the imperial historians were melancholy, and the wind was messy.
Wang Ce, who has made great contributions, is basically not mentioned much, only adding a title of positive fourth grade on the top of his head, plus a subordinate envoy from the fourth rank who is equal to a false position in the two ya.
The civil officials sharpened their knives for a long time, and when they came to this result, they really wanted to be from the palace.
The expectations of the top and bottom of Nanya have turned into a river of spring water, and at this point, everyone already knows that in the competition for the next commander, Wang Ce will be the first to go out, which is basically a foregone conclusion.
The maximum tenure of a commander can be as high as 20 years, and you can understand why some officials of the two government have been transferred to the military system in the past dynasties. Whether it can reach twenty years depends on the emperor's trust.
............ The same is beheading, Wang Ce is undoubtedly in a good mood today.
The supervisor showed a touch of unbearability, glanced at the old eunuch Wang who was watching the beheading on the side, and gritted his teeth: "Kill and decide!"
"Tang Wuqing, you can't die well!" Tang Zhengyue was like an angry bull, roaring and struggling: "Tang Wuqing, you killed so many of my Northern Tang royal family, what kind of face do you have to go to see Taizu after you die!"
The servant held a big knife in his hand, and his body trembled like a sieve, and the knife could not fall no matter what.
Under this sword, there is a royal martial sect, four royal martial artists!
Wu Zun and Wu Zong! That's the big lord who is high, and the executioner has never seen it, so let it go and cut it down? That's really terrible.
Tang Zhengyue, a die-hard who opposed the emperor, laughed wildly: "Come on, cut it, you Tang Wuqing is destroying my Northern Tang Jiangshan, and I will see how you face Taizu and his old man in the ghost world in the future!"
The old eunuch Wang's expression remained unchanged, and he gently stretched out his hand, and his five fingers fluttered.
The executioner suddenly found that his hand did not obey the call, and he cut it off with a bang!
The bones are bone, and the head is on the ground!
No matter how much you are a martial artist, the boundary between life and death is still a simple line of separation.
