Xingzhi layman: "If you want to continue the Tang Dynasty, you must set up Emperor Li Tang, let me tell you this, let Emperor Li Tang continue to hold power, the Tang Dynasty will definitely decline, if you don't want the Tang Dynasty to decline, you must have to set up the emperor, as for the reason is very simple, Emperor Li Tang's success rate is too low, the emperors after Li Longji are basically waste materials, Tang Xianzong Li Chun is known as the master of Zhongxing, in fact, he can't even play eunuchs, Tang Wuzong Li Yan, Tang Xuanzong Li Chen is obsessed with Dandao, this uncle and nephew are all addicts, Can you expect them to govern the country well? So Emperor Li Tang is just a mascot obediently. ”

Lu Xiaoning: "The Emperor of the Void sounds good, but what about after the Void?" How to design the top-level power structure? ”

Xingzhi layman: "There is no case to learn from, I personally suggest that you directly get an elder group, but the premise is that the scientific and technological level of the Tang Dynasty must maintain a generation gap with the surrounding barbarian regimes, otherwise make a group of elders who pull each other's skins, and in the face of the surrounding jackals, tigers and leopards, they are looking for death, and the tragedy of Meng Yuan's southward movement and the Manchu Qing Dynasty's entry into the customs will be repeated, and the Great Song Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty died like this." ”

Lu Xiaoning: "Isn't there a structure where the best of both worlds are created?" It can not only ensure the ascending channel of the Hanmen Shu clan, so that the truly capable ruler can reach the pinnacle of power, but also ensure that this capable minister will not usurp the throne and become another family, and it can also ensure that the Hanmen Shu clan who has already ascended to the throne does not have the ability to block the ascending channel of other Hanmen Shu clans? ”

Xingzhi layman: "It can only be said that the cabinet system of the Ming Dynasty is the closest to your requirements, but by the end of the Ming Dynasty, the ascent channel of the Hanmen Shu clan was almost blocked by the Donglin Party, and the people who reached the peak of power were not really capable ministers." ”

Lu Xiaoning: "It is true that none of the powerful ministers of the Ming Dynasty usurped the throne, but the ministers of the country will inevitably lack martial virtue. ”

Xingzhi layman: "Nonsense, although the martial arts of the Ming Dynasty are not as good as the strong Han and Tang Dynasty, but compared with other dynasties, it is not bad at all, Yu Qian, we will not talk about it, Sun Chuanting and Lu Xiangsheng are not lost to those famous generals who have left their names in history, and Wang Yangming is called a saint, which shows that the rule of Wenchen is not necessarily insufficient in martial arts." ”

Lu Xiaoning: "I have to think about this, how to get it better." ”

Xingzhi layman: "What do you have to think, you can't really cross over, really." ”

Lu Xiaoning secretly said, can I tell you that I really have crossed over to the Tang Dynasty? So now I really have the opportunity to continue the glory of the Tang Dynasty, but I really have to think about what to do.

Originally, it was thought that as long as it was through military means, it would be possible to continue the glory of the Tang Dynasty.

But now it seems that it is really simple.

Relying on war alone cannot continue the glory of the Tang Dynasty.

……

Just when Lu Xiaoning was pondering how to continue the glory of the Tang Dynasty, the heavyweights of the Datang Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate also arrived one after another.

The first to arrive was the Quy Nhon Army's town guard envoy Tian Zhen.

Tian Zhen and Li Siye were both Mo sword generals under Gao Xianzhi's account at first, and he can be ranked with Li Siye, which shows that he must also be outstanding, not to mention anything else, at least the martial arts must be very high.

The second to arrive was Bian Lingcheng, the general of the right prison gate.

In history, the eunuchs who killed Gao Xianzhi and Feng Changqing.

As soon as the two of them arrived in Cyruburg, they summoned Lu Wen and Tian Dajia and other soldiers of the Ninth Regiment to Xingyuan.

After asking Bian Lingcheng to take a seat, Tian Zhen directly promoted the officers and soldiers of the Ninth Regiment under the Quy Nhon Army, ordinary soldiers were promoted to a first-level loose officer, and captains or lieutenants like Tian Dajia and Wang Chang were promoted to third-level loose officers, and the most exaggerated one was Lu Wen, who was directly promoted to a ninth-level loose officer, and changed from a liuwai to a Xuanjie captain on the eighth grade.

According to the Tang law, the promotion of Zhonglang generals and above military officials must be enshrined by the emperor.

However, the military officers below the rank of lieutenant can be decided by the local festival envoy and the town guard envoy.

Therefore, there is no problem with Tian Zhen's operation, not to mention the endorsement of Bian Lingcheng, a eunuch.

"Captain Lu, you deserve this glory." Bian Lingcheng said with a smile, "Our family has heard people talk about your heroic performance in the Battle of Cyluburg, and they are also full of admiration, your martial arts and courage are not under the Duke of Liangguo. ”

This is to compare Lu Wen with Xue Rengui, the dead eunuch is not stingy with praise.

"Gong Bian is serious, how dare Lu Wen compare with Duke Liangguo." Lu Wen hurriedly humbled and humbled.

"Bide, Bide." Bian Lingcheng smiled and glanced at Tian again.

Tian Zhen sent Wang Chang, Tian Dajia and others away, leaving Lu Wen alone.

Bian Lingcheng smiled and asked Lu Wen again: "Captain Lu, who made the plan for you to rebel against the slaves in the Tubo army in the name of the god of Yala Chambord?" It's wonderful. ”

Lu Wen crossed his hands and said, "Naturally, it's Lu Tianshi." ”

"Lu Tianshi?" Bian Lingcheng turned his head and glanced at Tian Zhen again.

Until now, Bian Lingcheng didn't believe that there really was a Lu Tianshi.

In Bian Lingcheng's thoughts, the so-called Lu Tianshi was just made up by Lu Wen to scare the tens of thousands of Tubo slaves, and only those ignorant Tubo slaves would believe that there was really any Yala Chambord mountain god.

Tian Zhen directly began to express Lu Wen: "Captain Lu, is there a bag sent to you by a high-ranking envoy?" ”

"There are high-ranking people?" Lu Wen looked at Bian Lingcheng with some astonishment, and said, "How could a master send a secret envoy, and how could he have given any tips to the villain?" Nothing at all. ”

Bian Lingcheng's face immediately fell.

This Lu Wen seems to be a little unreasonable.

Tian Zhen's face also became a little unsightly.

The hint failed, so Tian Zhen directly changed it to an explicit statement: "Captain Lu, did the border prison gate order you to do this?" ”

"Border Guard?" Lu Wen finally reacted now, this is to rob Lu Tianshi's decision.

Bian Lingcheng also said that Lu Wen was worried that his credit would be robbed, and immediately said with a sharp smile: "Captain Lu, don't worry, our family will not take away your first merit, it should be yours or yours, and our family can still speak well for you in front of the saint, or it won't be long before you will be promoted to the ninth level again to become a general from the fifth rank." ”

I have to say, this blank check is still a bit tempting.

In the Tang military system, there is a difference between a captain and a general.

To put it simply, being a general qualifies you as a military division commander.

When he became the commander of a military division, he was only one step away from being the commander of a large military region.

However, Lu Wen refused without hesitation: "The well-intentioned villain of the border prison gate has understood it, but the villain has never received a secret letter from the border prison gate, and this decision is also Lu Tianshi's, and no one can snatch it away." ”

When Bian Lingcheng heard this, his face became even more embarrassed, so he didn't know how to advance or retreat?

Tian Zhen's face also fell, and he said in a deep voice: "Captain Lu, you have thought clearly. ”

"Whoa!" Lu Wen sang with his hand and said, "Tian Yuanjun, this matter is extremely clear. ”

"Lu Wen, don't toast and don't eat and drink." Tian Zhen turned his face directly, "Since General Ben can promote your officer, he can naturally demote you, don't think that you can act recklessly with a little effort." ”

This really refers to the deer as a horse, reversing black and white, obviously because he is reckless.

"The villain has only respect for Tian Yuanjun and the border prison gate." Lu Wen said without being arrogant or humble, "But if Tian Envoy Jun and the border prison door want the villain to deny Lu Tianshi's decision with a clear conscience, then it can only be said that it is difficult to obey the fate." ”

"Bold!" Bian Lingcheng's nose was crooked, and a little Xuanjie lieutenant dared to talk to him like that? Is it true that he, the prison general, is a paper paste? Our family wants to pinch you to death like pinching an ant.

"Someone!" Tian Zhen also shouted, and the two Anxi soldiers rushed into the lobby in response.

Tian Zhen stretched out his hand and pointed at Lu Wen, and shouted again: "Lu Wen is trying to assassinate Shangguan in vain, take it!" ”

"Huh?" The two Anxi soldiers who rushed into the lobby looked at each other, and the army team was trying in vain to assassinate the officer?

"Ahh Tian Zhen was furious and shouted again.

Seeing that the two Anxi soldiers were still hesitating, Bian Lingcheng added a sentence with pity: "Do you know that Lu Wen colluded with the Manichaean demon to falsely claim to be Lu Tianshi, and wanted to plot against him?" ”

"This!" Several Anxi soldiers suddenly changed their faces.

Bian Lingcheng said again: "What, are you also in collusion with Manichaeism?" ”

"Lu Zheng, I'm sorry." The two Anxi soldiers could only step forward and tie Lu Wen's arms behind him.

At this moment, a thunderous shout suddenly sounded in the lobby: "Bold castration, do you want to create something out of nothing and frame Zhongliang?" Huh? ”
