Volume 5 Chapter 704 The Great Ming in Li Er's Eyes
Li Er didn't care about Li Ke's reaction, the reason why he had always paid attention was just because of the almost pathological desire for control that emperors have.
There are so many of his heirs, and it may be sad to die one or two, but it's really just for a while.
Compared with him, these guys actually pay more attention to the dynamics of Chang'an and Daming.
Don't look at them as a staunch loyal faction now, but the victory or defeat over there affects the future direction of Datang, how can they not pay attention to it?
"Duke Qi Guo, this time Your Majesty went south, almost half of the court was emptied, and almost all the officials left in Chang'an were officials from the Shu Dynasty, so there really wouldn't be an accident?" In the temporary public hall of the eldest grandson Wuji, Chu Suiliang asked curiously.
He wasn't worried, after all, the eldest grandson Wuji, these smart people who could be counted, didn't say anything, which meant that this matter was fine, but as a courtier, how could he be willing to know nothing about it?
The eldest grandson Wuji didn't understand what he meant, and immediately smiled and said: "It's okay, haven't you seen this southern expedition, and those royal relatives and majesties have stayed in Chang'an?"
Li Xiaogong and Li Daozong stayed in Chang'an to balance the King of Shu, and more importantly, the queen was also in Chang'an.
Moreover, there are two old horsemen in the north, Guo Xiaoke and Cheng Yanjin, and now in Jingsui in the north, you don't think that what they are guarding against is really the north, right?
If you really want to talk about it, Your Majesty still favors the one, or wants to solve the problem of the scholar clan more. ”
"Your Majesty has become so disgusted with the scholars?" Chu Suiliang was a little surprised.
The eldest grandson Wuji shook his head and said: "It's not that I dislike the Shi clan, speaking of which, you and I are both born in the Shi clan, and so are the vast majority of officials in the court.
What His Majesty dislikes is nothing more than the immutable court, the almost monopolized officialdom of the Shi family, and the imperial power that cannot go to the countryside.
If you want to blame them, you can only blame them for being too big and too proud.
In the sixth year of Zhenguan, His Majesty ordered Wei Ting, Qin Wenwen, and Linghu Dedi to compile the clan chronicles, do you still have an impression?
How dare they!
actually listed Cui Mingan as first-class!
This is their way of death......"
Gao Shilian is also in charge of the clan chronicles, but this is his uncle, for the sake of His Holiness, he didn't mention it.
"Death indeed." Chu Suiliang also nodded when he heard this.
He actually understood that his majesty might want more than that.
And all this may have been influenced by Li Chengqian.
Li Chengqian made a big deal in Daming, which made Li Er envious.
Why can his own son do it, but he, who is Lao Tzu, is restricted everywhere?
"In that case, Wei Zheng actually helped His Majesty solve his worries?" Chu Suiliang said suddenly.
The eldest grandson Wuji shook his head and said, "It's hard to say, for Wei Zheng, to be honest, the old man can't see through it."
You say that he is trying to pierce this layer of window paper and put pressure on the King of Shu so that he does not dare to act rashly, which is reasonable.
But the question is, at this time, can the King of Shu stop when he shouts to stop?
But this is Wei Zheng's way of survival, as the descendant of Prince Yin, if he doesn't be a courtier and stage a drama that complements His Majesty, why does he stand on top of the court?
In the final analysis, what is a direct admonition, what is humbly admonished, it is just to take what you need. ”
For Wei Zheng, no matter how later generations evaluate them, they have their own set of evaluation criteria, not to mention that they and Wei Zheng were once hostile camps.
Li Er needs Wei Zheng, they don't need it.
"In other words, this is the tacit understanding between His Majesty and Wei Zheng, and together they have put on a play for us?" Chu Suiliang also sighed helplessly.
Wei Zheng, in his early years, he didn't worship this iron backbone, but as he spent a long time in the officialdom, his mentality also changed.
"Wei Zheng, it's hard to say." The eldest grandson Wuji shook his head and said, "Sometimes the old man also thinks that he is a speculative minister, but sometimes he feels that he is a minister who has the Tang Dynasty in his heart rather than the imperial power.
But to say that he didn't expect his end this time, the old man didn't believe it.
How can a person who survives the great change and is in a high position be an officialdom idiot? ”
For Wei Zheng, the eldest grandson Wuji really can't see through it, but fortunately, the overall situation is unhindered, and he doesn't want to ponder this person anymore, there is no point, because pondering people is the most tiring thing.
……
In the palace, Li Er didn't pay attention to these matters, and at this moment, he was watching Sun Simiao busy.
Southern Expedition, the biggest problem is not anything else, but the miasma in the south, and the entire Tang Dynasty, the person who can solve this problem, he thinks about it and thinks about it, only Sun Simiao is alone.
Of course, to let Sun Simiao go out with the army, he also worked hard.
Expecting Sun Simiao to be a military doctor, Sun Simiao will definitely not agree, not that his position is low, but mainly because he thinks that medical skills are for the sake of helping the world, not anything else.
In the end, Li Er was only able to hurt people for a long time, and Sun Simiao was still needed to save Li Min, so Sun Simiao agreed to go along.
At this time, Sun Simiao was discussing with the people in Gaozhou what miasma was.
Those who understand miasma are naturally the local Langzhong in Gaozhou.
"Lao Dao also came to Lingnan in his early years, and I heard people say that there are two kinds of miasma.
One is tangible and the other is intangible.
The tangible miasma is like a cloud, like a dense fog. Invisible miasma or fishy wind, or strange fragrance attacking people, is actually miasma.
There is another kind, at the beginning, but see the jungle shrub in the bright golden light, suddenly fell from the air, small as a projectile gradually drifted away, as big as a wheel suddenly burst, non-rainbow non-xia, five colors all over the field, the fragrance is compelling.
When a person receives this smell, he immediately becomes ill, and he is called a miasma, which is the most terrible of all.
In some places, the miasma is thick, get up early in the morning, people do not see each other within a stone's throw, and you must go to the middle of the day, the fog disperses, and you can distinguish objects, especially in the mountains.
Therefore the people of the land know how to travel, and must be fed; Or drink a few glasses to resist the miasma, otherwise you will definitely get sick if you touch it.
It is because the local people, even though the summer is very hot and sweats like rain, but the people do not dare to untie their clothes, when the wind is cold, they lie down at night, and they must close the door, all of which are to prevent the miasma from invading.
In the early years, Bao Zhao said in the bitter heat line, 'the miasma smokes the body during the day, and the dew stains the clothes at night'.
In this way, Lao Tao believes that the so-called miasma should be a kind of warm disease and a kind of typhoid fever. ”
"Sun Dao's words are reasonable." After listening to Sun Simiao's words, Gaozhou local Ichiro immediately said, "Over the years, we have also cured patients, often using the White Tiger Soup and Chengqi Soup in "Treatise on Typhoid Fever" to recuperate patients, but with little effect. ”
Li Er saw that everyone was discussing at a critical juncture, so he turned around and left immediately, for fear of disturbing these people.
Since he had the idea of the Southern Expedition for a long time, Li Er naturally wouldn't do anything about temporary cramming, and he already had a solution to the miasma, but it was not perfect, so Sun Simiao walked with him to see if he had a more perfect way.
In the final analysis, as the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, he is still responsible for the people.
Of course, more importantly, with Sun Simiao with him, he and his courtiers can also be more secure in terms of security, right?
"Your Majesty, the Grand Governor of Rongzhou Governor's Mansion, Fan Guogong, and Duan Zhixuan ask to see you." At this moment, an attendant came to report.
Li Er was overjoyed when he heard this, and immediately smiled: "Xuan." ”
As early as a few years ago, Li Er relocated Duan Zhixuan to the Rongzhou Governor's Mansion, and it can be said that the first person who knew that Li Er would definitely march south was Duan Zhixuan.
Not long after, in his early forties, Duan Zhixuan, who was in his prime, strode in.
"Your Majesty, the old minister."
"Aiqing is exempt." Li Er said with a smile on his face, and even walked over to help Duan Zhixuan.
Duan Zhixuan immediately looked flattered, and said again and again: "Torture the old minister......"
Li Er didn't care about this, and said with a smile: "I've worked hard in the past few years. ”
"It is the responsibility of the old minister to be loyal to His Majesty, why do you have to work hard?" Duan Zhixuan also said with a smile, "Moreover, how many governors are there in the world?" How many officials worship the governor? This is a great honor for the old minister! ”
"Haha......" Li Er also laughed when he heard this, "You are the Metropolitan Governor, you deserve it, it's really a big word!" ”
When Duan Zhixuan heard this, he also smiled and said: "That's natural, the Rongzhou Governor's Mansion has eight out of fifty subordinate prefectures, and if the old minister wants to inspect the subordinate prefectures, it won't be enough for a year." ”
He wasn't joking.
Later generations often said that Yunnan, Guizhou, Sichuan and Chongqing are southwest F4, which is a family.
If Duan Zhixuan puts these words here, there is really nothing wrong with it, because the fifty-eight prefectures under the jurisdiction of his Rongzhou Governor's Mansion are distributed in Yunnan-Guichuan!
And Yibin is also called the southwest half of the wall because of this!
Of course, Duan Zhixuan said this time just to show his merits.
Li Er naturally understood, but he didn't mind.
Indeed, it is indeed hard work to let the government govern dozens of fetters, what is there to say?
"How is Rongzhou governed now?" Li Er immediately asked.
When Duan Zhixuan heard this, he immediately got serious and said: "Live up to expectations, everything is going according to Your Majesty's expectations, this time Your Majesty is marching south, I can send 50,000 servants to Rongzhou, and I can organize another 150,000 servants." ”
Li Er nodded with satisfaction, and then asked, "Does Aiqing think these servants are easy to govern?" ”
"Excellent governance." Duan Zhixuan immediately said, "Lao Chen has been secretly sending people to Sun Moon Mountain to learn His Highness's methods of governing foreign races, basically he has not made much changes, and he has completely copied his concept of governing foreign races, but it is very useful for the servants under his rule."
But this doesn't mean anything, the servants are the weakest of the alien races after all.
If it is changed to the Turks, Goguryeo, it may not be so easy to use. ”
Of course he knew what Li Er meant.
Back then, when Li Er asked him to govern Rongzhou, he gave him a secret decree, asking him to follow the Ming court's treatment of foreign races and try it to see if Li Chengqian's miracle could be reproduced.
Of course, all this is not for the sake of replicating a Ming royal court, but for better governance of foreign races.
At that time, he didn't understand it, but with the destruction of Goguryeo, he completely understood.
Nodding, Li Er said: "It is true that it cannot be generalized, but it also has learned valuable experience for us. ”
"If you want me to say, if you kill a foreign race, it is not my race, and its heart will be different, so what will you do if you keep it? Wasting food for nothing.
If my Han family shows weakness in the future, these alien races will inevitably attack them in groups, and keep them, but they will leave a disaster for future generations.
Interracial well, only the dead alien race is the best, the most qualified, and the most lovely alien race. ”
When Li Er heard this, he smiled and said, "That being said, now we also have the ability to do all this you said and kill all the aliens we can see."
But do you really think that in that way, my Datang world will be at ease? ”
"Wouldn't it be safe to sit back and relax when all the foreign enemies are dead?" Duan Zhixuan was a little puzzled.
"If there is no external trouble, there must be internal trouble." Li Er shook his head and said, "Foreign races can destroy their morning food, but they can't destroy their race." Well, there are two reasons.
First, you have exterminated all the alien races, so where does the superiority of the Han people come from?
This sense of superiority is part of national self-confidence.
You also often send people to study in Sun Moon Mountain, so do you find that in terms of national self-confidence, Daming is the best in the world.
It doesn't matter what nationality they used to be, but now, all of them are proud of their great wisdom.
In fact, if this situation persists for a few generations, more than a dozen generations, they will even forget what kind of nation they are, thus forming a new nation.
And this kind of national self-confidence is reflected in other alien races.
You see, they first conquered Tuyuhun, and then conquered Tubo, Subi, Western Turks, and dozens of countries in the Western Regions.
But have they done anything to exterminate each other's races?
Not a single one!
Look at those people in Daming, who are the most proud of them? ”
"The most proud people are naturally those who followed His Highness at the beginning, such as Zhao Yan, Pu Xiruo, and Qi Bi He Li." Duan Zhixuan thought for a while and said.
"And then?" Li Er continued to ask.
"And then there are those Xianbei people in Tuyuhun."
"And next?"
"That must be Subi......" Speaking of this, Duan Zhixuan was suddenly startled and said, "This is actually still a chain of contempt?" The one who surrendered first instead stood at the top of the chain of contempt? ”
"They all say that Gao Ming is powerful, but in fact, they don't know where Gao Ming's most powerful place is." Li Er shook his head and smiled, "Look, when Gao Ming wins the five Tianzhu, even if it is Tubo and the Western Turks, they will slowly merge into the so-called Daming lineage, because at this time, they also have someone to despise, that is, the five Tianzhu."
Even, between these five Tianzhu, there will be a chain of contempt.
Actually, how similar is this to my Datang? I, the Tang people, look down on the Goguryeo people, the Hu people in the Western Regions, and the Japanese people, but only the Ming people.
If you really want to exterminate these people, where does my Tang people's self-confidence come from? ”
"The old minister understands." When Duan Zhixuan heard this, he immediately said, "These alien races can only destroy their eclipses, but they can't destroy their races." I can't be the only one in the world. ”
Thinking of this, Duan Zhixuan's heart was suddenly shocked!
Your Highness's actions are very great!
Li Er smiled and said nothing, when it came to this, he didn't need to say much.
As for what Li Chengqian is plotting, he actually doesn't care, and when the time comes, what he will compete is just hard power.
Again, the meat is rotten in the pot after all, and he doesn't really care too much.
It is much more comfortable to have a strong opponent than a tiger going down the mountain just to catch a pheasant.
The opponent of the tiger is not a bear or a leopard, at least a wolf!
"Let's go and rest first." Li Er waved his hand and said, "Tomorrow, I will convene hundreds of officials to discuss many matters related to the southern expedition. ”
……
On the other side, Taohe County.
Wang Renyou came back from the court of Dazhao in disgrace.
Along the way, he saw that those Tang people were expelled by Wan Qianpu unreasonably, and those who dared to resist, Wan Qipu dared to fight each other, but he couldn't do anything.
Because King Zhao said that all this is no longer up to him.
"How is it, what did King Zhao say." In Du Chuke's mansion, Liu Shuyi asked eagerly.
He was also going to go, but Wan Qipu suddenly killed him, and he rushed back halfway.
King Zhao said that according to the agreement between him and Murong Fuyun back then, now he has returned the territory of the Great Zhao Court to Murong Shun.
It was this Murong Shun who ordered the expulsion of the Tang people, and the reason why Murong Shun did this was only for the time when the rights were handed over, and there was no surprise.
In other words, now it can no longer be called the Great Zhao Wangting, it should be called Tuyuhun. ”
Wang Renyou was also helpless, Li Yuanjing's words, he really couldn't refute them, and the world even took out the agreement he signed with Murong Fuyun back then.
What did you ask him to say to persuade Li Yuanjing not to recognize this agreement?
Not to mention that he knew that this was Li Yuanjing's, even if he didn't know, this was not something that he, a scholar who had read sage books, could say it in a grand manner.
"Fuck off!" Liu Shuyi couldn't hold back after all, and scolded viciously, "Who in the world doesn't know that Murong Shun is that captive, and he has the ability to restore the country?" If you want to say that you gave it back to Murong Ge, Lao Tzu wants to give it back to Murong Shun, isn't that just surrendering to Daming? ”
"The truth is this, and everyone understands it." When Du Chuke heard this, his face was also painful, "But the problem is that there is nothing wrong with this matter, there is the agreement of the year as evidence, and Murong Shun is the basis, if people bite to death and say so, what can you do?" ”
They suddenly found that Murong Shun was like a-stirring stick, and he had everything disgusting.
At this point, they somewhat understood why Li Chengqian had not killed Murong Shun all along.
This guy, regardless of whether he has the ability for the time being, but the ability to disgust people is really a must.
"In this way, even if Quan Wanji comes, it won't be useless." When Liu Shuyi heard this, he was a little dumbfounded.
Quan Wanji was going to envoy to the Great Zhao Wangting, they naturally heard about it, and they thought that this old guy was here and could play a role, but now it seems, hehe, Li Yuanjing can't be the master, and Murong Shun is Li Chengqian's puppet, what a fart?
"Why don't we secretly kill Murong Shun?" Du Chuke said, "The old man has discovered that the greatest meaning of this person's life is to disgust people!" ”
"Kill Murong Shun?" Liu Shuyi also nodded when he heard this, "That's fine, as long as you kill Murong Shun, you can take advantage of the situation to push Murong Ge to inherit." ”
When Wang Renyou heard this, he shook his head and said, "Where is it so easy?" On the way back, the old man heard that his uncle Sun Hai and Murong Chengjun led the soldiers of the Douhe Army into the court of the Great Zhao Dynasty and supported Murong Shun's restoration of the country.
Are you going to fight into the camp of the River Pouring Army? ”
"See the fuck!" When Liu Shuyi heard this, he said angrily, "Who doesn't know that Murong Chengjun is Murong Xiaojun's son, and the relationship between Murong Xiaojun and Murong Shun has long been known."
His son supports Murong Shun's restoration of the country, which is fucking more unusual than an old sow going up a tree!
Not to mention, this Murong Chengjun's sister Murong Wanqiu is still the princess of the Ming Dynasty......"
"Left and right are just an excuse, but this excuse is reasonable, and you really can't find anything wrong." Wang Renyou also shook his head helplessly, didn't he know what the situation was?
He knew, but he couldn't help it.
People have found an excuse to call it appropriate, what can you say?
"The River Dumping Army is coming?" Du Chuke didn't care about this, but asked, "Can this news be confirmed?" ”
"Definitely." Wang Renyou nodded and said, "On my way back, I even saw that a team of 100 people from the River Pouring Army also participated in the expulsion of my Tang people, but they were gentler than Wan Qipu's madman, and they were all kind words and persuasions.
The old man also listened to it, saying that at the beginning of the restoration of the country, there was turmoil in the country, and he asked you to avoid it for the time being......
Speaking of which, listening to them like this, the old man's goosebumps stood up, and it was not as comfortable as Wan Qipu's madman straightforwardly. ”
"It seems that Da Ming is ready to have a tough fight with me." Du Chuke sighed and said, "Wait, when Quan Wanji comes, we will discuss it again, this matter must not be good!" Otherwise, we will lose all the face of my heavenly kingdom! ”
In the future, try not to spend time in the underworld. Well, ask for a monthly pass, double the amount!
