Chapter 5: Drawing Salary from the Bottom of the Cauldron
The eldest one Li Ye recognized was Prime Minister Liu Chongwang, and behind him were Du Rangneng, Cui Yin, Cui Zhaowei and others.
However, Li Ye has no impression of these people, as if they are not particularly famous in history.
I didn't pay much attention to it.
"As the Son of Heaven, I have been humiliated so far, how can I see my ancestors and ancestors." Li Ye continued to pretend.
"The minister has a word, Your Majesty is not willing to be humiliated, but you can ask Bianliang for help, King Liang is loyal and will live up to Your Majesty." The person who spoke was Cui Yin.
Li Ye looked at him in a daze, this person is currently just a man for things, and Liu Chongwang and Du Rangneng are different, one is the left servant of Shangshu Province, and the right servant of the province under the door has been added, all of which have been added to Tongping Zhangshi, which means that the prime minister, since the Sui Dynasty set up three provinces and six departments, the three provinces are divided into Menxia Province, Zhongshu Province, Shangshu Province, Shangshu Province has the greatest authority, because the Shangshu Order during the Tang Gaozu period is Li Shimin, so there is the Tang Dynasty, Shangshu Orders are vacant, and the actual highest governor is Shangshu Province left and right servants.
Cui Yin has always coveted the position of prime minister, which is not a secret in the court, and Wenchen, who does not want to be the prime minister, is not a good undercover agent.
Any Wenchen who is a little ambitious will collude with the feudal town to strengthen his voice in the court.
So whenever he had the opportunity, he would rush to speak.
But at this moment, Li Ye's idea was to strangle him directly, and he was tired of being alive, so he recruited Zhu Wen to come to King Qin.
Cui Yin is doing this, isn't it a copy of He Jin in the late Han Dynasty who invited Dong Zhuo to Beijing?
Compared with Zhu Wen, Dong Zhuo is really a kind person.
Of course, Zhu Wen was not called Zhu Wen at this time, but Zhu Quanzhong, a name that was given to him by his confused brother Tang Xizong.
Emperor Li Tang's biggest hobby is to give surnames and names, and forcibly let others recognize their ancestors and return to their ancestors, which was no big problem before the Middle Tang Dynasty, but in the late Tang Dynasty, the feudal towns were not used for the sake of power and territory, let alone recognize.
Seeing Li Ye looking at himself in a daze, Cui Yin had no consciousness of being recognized as an undercover agent, "Right now, the only one who can save His Majesty from trouble is King Liang!" The others are all wolf ambitions, and they hope that His Majesty will give him advice. ”
Li Ye resisted the urge to strangle him, and looked around at the great loyal ministers, "What do you think?" ”
The superior should not easily show his heart, this is what he learned from the boss of the insurance company, let the people at the bottom make trouble, and he finally came out to clean up the mess, so that he can see everyone's position clearly, and second, he must not offend people.
"I can't do it!" One of them said in a sharp voice.
Following the prestige, it was Han Quanzhi, the lieutenant of the Right Shence Army, and the eunuchs mastered the Shence Army, which was also a characteristic of the late Tang Dynasty.
Han Quanzhi is considered to be the real power figure in the Tang court at present, and when he spoke, everyone could only recognize an ostrich.
"Oh? What is General Han's good plan? "Don't look at Han Quanzhi as a eunuch, but the eunuchs at the end of the Tang Dynasty are also a group of forces that cannot be offended, Li Ye vaguely remembers that there were at least three emperors of the Tang Dynasty who were killed by the eunuchs.
Han Quanzhu is considered to be Li Ye's retainer and is in charge of the Shence Army, so his relationship with the emperor is closer, "Cui Yin, do you want to harm Your Majesty and harm the Tang Dynasty?" ”
Cui Yin is at least 20 years older than Han Quanyu, and when he was pointed at his nose and scolded "boy", he didn't dare to refute it, his face was red, his neck shrunk, and he gave his hand again and again.
Han Quanzhi's small eyes scanned everyone present, his hands on his hips, like a rooster in heat.
Of course, the eunuch will not be in estrus, but his spirit is more excited than estrus: "Isn't it misleading Your Majesty to talk about the king of Longxi County like this?" The Tang Dynasty is bad in the hands of you literati. ”
A few ministers hummed, but no one dared to speak.
Han Quanzhi enjoyed the embarrassment of the ministers who dared to be angry and did not dare to speak, but no one spoke back, and he couldn't quarrel alone, so he turned his head to Li Ye and said: "Your Majesty, don't worry, from the old slave's point of view, the king of Longxi County has no other intention here, that is, the side of the Qing monarch to clean up these ministers who only know how to slander." ”
"Oh, it turns out that the king of Longxi County is also a loyal minister, it seems that I misunderstood him." There was a hint of ridicule in Li Ye's words.
Han Quanzhi also heard a little of the ridicule in Li Ye's words, and his small eyes stared at Li Ye around.
Seeing that no one spoke, Li Ye said: "Since the king of Longxi County has no other intentions, then General Lao Han will go to comfort the Lao Xi army." ”
Minister Zhong Du Rangneng's eyes flashed with a different color, and he quickly retreated.
Han Quanyu's little eyes turned faster, "Your Majesty...... Your Majesty, this is not very ...... Okay......"
Li Ye didn't give him a chance to shirk: "The king of Longxi County came from afar, and the court couldn't help but express it, and there was General Lao Han in this matter." ”
This Han Quanzhu is Li Maozhen's spokesperson in the imperial court, and sending him to Fengxiang's army is to find out the details of Li Maozhen.
The emperor spoke, Han Quanzhi couldn't help but listen, the matter had come to this point, so he could only agree to the matter.
"Okay, you've all worked hard, that's all for today, you guys go back first."
After talking about it for a long time, there is basically no useful advice, but there is a fatal suggestion, even if Li Ye's brain is in water, he doesn't dare to invite Zhu Wen to come to King Qin.
The ministers retired one after another.
He was the only one left in the Zichen Palace.
In fact, Li Maozhen's purpose here is very clear, to kidnap Zhaozong and learn from Cao Cao to coerce the Son of Heaven to command the world, but Cao Cao can do this, you Li Maozhen don't have the strength or ability to do it.
Feng Xiang can only be regarded as a second-rate force in the world's feudal towns, and even Yang Xingmi of Jianghuai can't be compared, and there are Liang King Zhu Wen and Jin King Li Keyong in front, can you see you Li Maozhen as Cao Cao?
Besides, the Tang court at this time had no appeal to the world.
Li Maozhen's move was completely lifting a stone to shoot herself in the foot.
As soon as he kidnapped Zhaozong with his front foot, the fierce god Zhu Wen came with his back foot, and he was beaten violently, Li Maozhen could only admit it and dedicate Zhaozong to Zhu Wen.
Fortunately, Li Ye still has 30,000 remnants of the divine strategy in his hands, and he went out to play field battles with Li Maozhen, which was self-inflicted humiliation.
It shouldn't be difficult to defend Chang'an City, right?
Besides, Li Maozhen's biggest internal Ying Han Quanzhi was also kicked out by herself, at least she didn't have to worry about being joined by the inside and outside.
He also thought about killing Han Quanzhu and taking over the military power of the Shence Army.
The problem is that the eunuch's power is not trivial, and he has long been integrated with Tang Ting, and it is a fool's behavior to cut himself by himself.
When playing politics, the first thing is to find out who is the enemy and who is your own people.
Han Quanzhu is not his own person, but he is not his enemy yet.
He read an article in his previous life, in the late Tang Dynasty, it was actually a stable power triangle relationship formed by the feudal town, the eunuch, and the emperor.
But the feudal town is playing big, and it is going to change Li Tang's life.
This is the essential difference.
The emperor of the late Tang Dynasty just didn't understand this, and he kept conflicting with the eunuch group and weakened each other, which eventually led to the complete loss of control of the feudal town and the burial of the Tang Dynasty.
Of course, there are many reasons for the fall of the Tang Dynasty, the eunuch group is not a thing, the last emperors of the Tang Dynasty are not good goods, and the feudal towns are not good things.
The political pattern of the late Tang Dynasty is the lower limit of the show, which is more rotten than anyone, and everyone will rot together.
The result is anger from below that consumes everything.
The Yellow Nest Rebellion, the emperor, the eunuchs, and the feudal towns were all finished.
On the surface, it was the feudal town that benefited, but in fact it was the Huangchao rebel generals like Zhu Wen, the internal migration tribes like Li Keyong, and the foreign tribes such as the Khitan, Dangxiang, Nanzhao, and Huifu.
It is the ancient peoples who inhabit this land that are most seriously injured.
"Your Majesty, Du Xianggong asks to see you." Liu Quanli's report outside the hall interrupted Li Ye's thoughts.
Du Rang Neng? What did he come to do?
"The old minister greets Your Majesty!" is different from the three kneeling and nine bows in the braided drama in later generations, Du Rangneng just made a forked hand salute.
"Excuse me, come and serve tea." Although it is said that the soul passes through Zhaozong's body, Zhaozong's memory is still somewhat there.
"I heard yesterday that Your Majesty was sick, I don't know how it is today?" Du Jean can speak like his people, gentle and polite, but without a sense of coyness.
Of course, Li Ye knew that Du Rang could deliberately come back to meet him, and he was by no means talking nonsense, so he couldn't help but take a wit: "The minor illness has been cured, but it is difficult to go away." ”
Du Rang can be the prime minister, naturally not a general, hearing the song strings and knowing the elegant meaning: "The minister hears that the illness comes like a mountain, and the illness goes like a thread, but I don't know whether Your Majesty uses fierce medicine or warmth?" ”
The direction of these words is very clear, Li Ye knows it in his heart, but at present, Datang is terminally ill, and it is already dying, a fierce medicine, the biggest possibility is that it directly wants Datang's life, but Wenyang is not waiting for me, let alone solving Datang's predicament, when Zhaozong was in power, all efforts can be regarded as Wenyang, but all attempts failed.
The only way to do this is to find another way.
But how to find another way, Li Ye didn't have a clue in his heart.
"Fierce medicine and warm nourishment are both palliative, not curative." Li Ye told the truth.
Du Rangneng suddenly looked straight at Li Ye, "Why doesn't Your Majesty take a salary from the bottom of the kettle?" ”
Draw a salary from the bottom of the kettle? Li Ye was shocked in his heart, yes, the bottom of the kettle is drawn!
The Tang Dynasty has come to an end, and all traditional methods have failed since the time of Suzong Xianzong.
If you want Datang to rejuvenate yourself, you can only fundamentally change all this! Reshape the muscles and bones of Datang!
Only a soul like himself who has crossed over from the 21st century has the courage, determination and insight to do this, and it is impossible for any ancient person to have this pattern.
This is also the only place where he is ahead of the ancients.
But when I thought about it, I couldn't help but think about it and be terrified.
Li Ye never underestimated the thoughts of the ancients, but as a Tang Dynasty person, how could Du Rang have such an idea of transcending the limitations of the times?
Could it be that he is also a traverser?
Or did he just stumble into it, not that's what he meant? Thinking too much about yourself?
Seeing the faint glimmer of light in Du Rangneng's cloudy eyes, Li Ye suddenly understood that he was not by mistake, let alone a modern person.
It's very simple, the temperament of modern people is by no means the same as that of the ancients, even if Du Rangneng is an Oscar winner, he can't play the innate temperament of the Tang people.
This is the unique temperament given to him by the times.
