Chapter 271: The Basis of Power
"General Lu, General Lu!"
After ascending the throne, Wang Ling took a step forward and chased after Lu Wenhuan.
Lu Wenhuan froze, turned to look at Wang Ling, and asked, "Are you?"
"I am Wang Ling, and I am the Holy Master of the present. I wonder if General Lu can stop and talk to me?" Wang Ling stood firm, his breath was not a little disordered, after all, he was also in his sixties, and after strenuous exercise, he would naturally feel uncomfortable.
"The Crown Prince?"
Lu Wenhuan thought for a moment, remembering the person who accompanied Zhao Yu to this place before, and asked, "Since this is the case, then I don't know what the prince is looking for me to do?" No matter what, Zhao Yu is also an emperor now, and the corresponding attendants also need to be matched, and this Wang Ling may also become a prince because of this.
Wang Ling smiled and said, "Well, the main reason is that Your Majesty has the heart to understand the affairs of the army, so I hope to meet with General Lu and talk about my heartfelt feelings." ”
"I see!"
Lu Wenhuan laughed, then shook his head and replied, "I'm sorry, I still have important things to deal with, and I ask you to refuse." After saying that, he ignored Wang Ling and left straight away.
is as smart as Lu Wenhuan, so he naturally saw Wang Ling's purpose, which was to win himself over so that he could add a little bargaining chip to the current emperor Zhao Yu. Rijin had already joined the Huaxia Army, and Lu Wenhuan naturally didn't want to get into trouble, so he chose to leave.
"Why are you just leaving? Can you just stop a little and listen to me before I leave?"
Wang Ling opened his mouth, wanting to keep Lu Wenhuan, but Lu Wenhuan's steps were fast, and he left this place in an instant, leaving him standing alone.
With a long sigh, Wang Ling sighed: "Alas. If this is the case, could it be that Your Majesty can only live like this?" When he ascended the throne, he saw Xiao Feng's domineering appearance, and he knew that it would not be easy to let Zhao Yu take power, so after the ceremony, he began to plot around, trying to find someone who could help Zhao Yu.
And that Lu Wenhuan naturally became his preferred target.
At this moment, there was a sound in the distance.
"Isn't this Wang Ling, the prince of the prince, why are you here?"
Following the voice, Wang Ling immediately noticed that it was Gundam, and he was overjoyed, and hurriedly said, "Isn't this General Gao? Why are you here?"
"Isn't this a long patrol? It's just that Mrs. Wang, why are you back here?" asked Gundam.
Wang Ling sighed and replied, "Alas. It's not for His Majesty's business?"
"Your Majesty, what's wrong with him?" asked Gundam with concern.
He had also seen the scene when he ascended the throne, and he was also a little dissatisfied with Xiao Feng's behavior, thinking that what he did was too much, exceeding the boundaries that a courtier should have, so he did not reject contact with Wang Ling.
Wang Ling said: "Alas. For the king of that Jin, you also saw it. In any case, His Majesty is also the lord of the present day, but he does not even have an attendant. You must know that even the crown prince has the power to open the palace. However, Your Majesty is not even qualified to meddle in political affairs, what do you think is this?"
In his words, Wang Ling did not hide his dissatisfaction with Xiao Feng.
Now, although Zhao Yu was made emperor, his situation has not changed, as usual, he is also forbidden to contact any officials, and the monthly worship has not changed except for the increase to three hundred.
Compared with ordinary people, three hundred yuan is naturally enough to make the family live quite comfortably, but for the emperor, such a small amount of money is not even comparable to the cost of a day's meal.
Of course, Zhao Yu is also used to living a hard life, so he can naturally accept this simple life, the big deal is that the servants get less, three or five people are enough, the house is smaller, as long as it can live in people, the food and anything don't need to be so luxurious, and naturally it can also meet life.
And after deducting these expenses, there are less than 200 yuan left in a month.
To expect to rely on these two hundred yuan to attract benefactors is simply wishful thinking.
Gundam replied, "Isn't this a special case? And the same is true for His Royal Highness King Jin, so it's not a big deal." ”
He had also heard of Xiao Feng's simplicity, and now that he had seen it, he was surprised by the simplicity of his life, which was no different from the lives of ordinary people. Under its influence, the officials in Chang'an were naturally simple, and even if they wanted to enjoy it, they only felt sneaky, and did not dare to be bold.
"Hmm-"
Wang Ling's tone froze, and his face showed embarrassment.
He added: "Although this is the case, she is too ruthless, and even the queen has not been canonized, which is too much." Your Majesty is now a young man, and it is the beginning of love, in order to continue the heir of Prince Jin, you have to find a concubine for him, right?"
"That's just as well. It's just that the king of Jin is obsessed with court politics, so he has been negligent, so let me talk about it for you. Gundam thought about it for a while, and also felt that Xiao Feng had not handled this matter properly.
But when he thought that Xiao Feng had always been alone, he also understood a little, thinking that this matter was really Xiao Feng's incompleteness, which led to such a scene.
Wang Ling thanked him: "Then this matter will be entrusted to you." ”
Now that Zhao Yu is in a situation, no matter how thoughtful he is, it is categorically difficult to change, after all, Xiao Feng is resolute, and the Huaxia army also approves of it, thinking that Zhao Hao's opportunity to hold power should be cut off. If you want to completely change the current situation, you can only start from the queen's side, if you can find a stronger family to rely on, maybe you can change Zhao Hao's situation a little.
"Don't worry. I'll leave this matter to me, and I won't embarrass Your Majesty. ”
Gundam nodded and agreed.
After Wang Ling thanked him, he left the place with a smile on his face.
Seeing Wang Ling leave, Gao Ling sighed suddenly, thinking, "Alas. Is it necessary to fight so hard just for the position of emperor?" Compared to Wang Ling, he didn't have much loyalty to Zhao Hao, purely because he saw Zhao Hao's pitiful appearance, so he felt compassion and wanted to help him.
Seeing that Zhao Yu was so oppressed by Xiao Feng, Gao Da was unwilling to accept it, even if he found Xiao Feng.
"You mean, let me mention that Zhao Yu to find a wife?"
After listening to Gundam's request, Xiao Feng was displeased, she thought that Gundam would give some advice before, but she didn't expect it to be such a boring request.
I have to say that being a mother is really uncomfortable.
Not only did you have to raise him, but I also had to help him find a suitable wife, which was really distressing.
Gao Dao said: "That's right, King Jin! You have also seen it, that Zhao Yu is now an adult, and now he has ascended the throne as the emperor, if you don't find him a wife, wouldn't it be too pitiful?"
"By what you say, I'm a bit reckless. ”
Xiao Feng thought about it for a while, and also felt that he had gone too far.
For that Zhao Yu, although she doesn't have much affection, she always has the intention of taking advantage of it, but the other party is a man after all, and naturally she also has the idea of male and female love.
"In that case, who do you think is a better fit?"
Thinking about it, Xiao Feng had never found a suitable candidate, so he immediately asked.
Gao Gao's eyes moved slightly, but it fell on Wang Mu beside Xiao Feng, and as if there was something in his words, Wang Mu hurriedly waved his hand and refused: "I'm sorry, I'm not interested." ”
Wang Mu didn't have any interest in that Zhao Yu, and she was determined to be in the world, and it was impossible for her to wronged herself and be forced to curl up in that deep palace.
Xiao Feng's expression changed slightly, and his tone increased by three points: "I know what you want, but remember not to persecute others, understand?
"King Qi Jin! I naturally understand. ”
Gao Da hurriedly responded, for fear of provoking Xiao Feng because of this matter.
Xiao Feng smiled at this time: "That's good." As for the candidates, it will be up to you to arrange. Seeing that Gundam was about to leave, she stopped again and admonished, "And." In order to prevent harassment of the people, this matter should not be publicized, only one is needed. If he got three palaces, six courtyards, and seventy-two concubines, and no matter what happened in the government and the opposition, I was afraid that his small body would not be able to bear it, but he would die violently like his father. After speaking, there was a bit of contempt.
Obviously, Xiao Feng was quite disgusted with Zhao Xuan's matter, so much so that his words were full of anger.
When Gundam left, Wang Mu asked, "Lord, then Zhao Yu is also the emperor no matter how he says, why are you treating him like this?"
"Emperor?"
With a light snort, Xiao Feng's words were full of contempt, but he asked rhetorically: "Wang Mu." Let me ask you, in the past 1,000 years, there have been many emperors. Why can they be outstanding like Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and Taizong of the Tang Dynasty to create a new era, and there are also people like Emperor Sima Zhen of the Jin Dynasty, Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty Zhao Guang, and Emperor Huizong of the Song Dynasty Zhao Ji, who rebelled against their relatives and separated them, and the great dynasty also collapsed?"
"Isn't this because they're cruel and brutal?"
Wang Mu pondered in her heart, for these things, she was also quite curious when she read history books, and often explored why these emperors became like this?
After all, when they ascended the throne, the dynasty was still in its prime, but decades later, this seemingly indestructible dynasty completely collapsed, which is really a sigh.
"The so-called benevolence and righteousness are nothing more than what is said on paper. If it is the root of it, it is only because they lost support and were abandoned by that great dynasty, that's all. Xiao Fenglang replied.
Wang Mu felt as if he had touched something, and asked again: "Abandoned?
"That's right. They are indeed emperors, but nothing more. You have been with me for many years, and you should also understand that if you want to succeed, you have to rely on the strength of others, and it is not so difficult to succeed. ”
Xiao Feng replied: "And how to use the power of others is the most important ability to measure a king. But these faint gentlemen only know that they can satisfy their own desires, and it is natural that they will be abandoned if they neglect the desires of others. The world is bustling, all for profit, the world is bustling, all for profit. Man, after all, is a creature full of desire!"
Along the way, Xiao Feng has seen these things more thoroughly, and naturally he doesn't pay much attention to some things.
For those people, she only hopes that they will not forget their purpose, and as for the rest, they can only go with the wind.
"So that's it?"
Hearing this, Wang Mufang had an understanding.
Xiao Feng said: "Naturally. If there is no support from others, even if you are an emperor, you will only be a loess. If you can gather the vision of the people of the world, even if you are a beggar, you will have the moment to reach the top of the Ninety-Five Supreme. It's a pity that too many people don't understand in this world!"
"It's just the lord. If that's the case, wouldn't you have to give up too many things?" Thinking of Xiao Feng's current situation, Wang Mu suddenly felt a little sad.
For the sake of this desire to expel the Tatars and restore China, Xiao Feng gave up family affection and love, and devoted himself wholeheartedly to it, so that now, he is also alone, with only two companions.
"Hah, that's another question. ”
Xiao Feng replied: "Willing, willing." There is a give-and-take, as for how to choose, it depends on your own choice. ”
