Chapter 796 The Struggle for Power in the New Tang Dynasty
Hearing this, Liu Bojing frowned. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Li Zhou'er ignored his hesitation, and just said lightly: "Since you already know the situation in the current dynasty quite clearly, and you want to come to many things, you can give me advice, this time, I also want you to tell me your opinion." ”
Liu Bojing was silent for a moment before he said, "Why should I tell you?"
Li Zhou'er said calmly: "Are you terrible to death?"
When Liu Bojing heard this, he suddenly felt helpless in his heart.
This is extremely obvious, he is now in the hands of this eldest princess, and his life is in the hands of the other party, if he doesn't want to die, he will naturally have to answer.
Liu Bojing is a smart person, and he also knows that this eldest princess is a smart person, so he didn't show any literati arrogance, only sighed and said, "Just ask." ”
Li Zhou'er said: "What do you think of being the emperor?"
Liu Bojing said: "The Ninth Five-Year Honor, the lord of a country, is naturally ......"
Li Zhou'er didn't answer, nor did she interrupt, just looked at him quietly, and her flat and quiet gaze made people unconsciously a little flustered.
Seeing this, Liu Bojing took the initiative to accept the interview, changed the conversation, and continued: "When the emperor was young, he was the eldest princess in power, but now that he has grown up and his thoughts have changed, he naturally wants to take back his power. In addition, he is high on the throne, and he always feels that you, the eldest princess, are too strong and oppresses him, so it is inevitable that he will not like it. ”
Li Zhou'er's gaze lowered slightly, fell on the stone table, and his slender and white palm tapped on the stone table, and said, "He was also a very well-behaved child back then, how could he become like this?"
Liu Bojing said: "The world is changeable, people are like blank paper, things are like dye vats, everything you see, hear, encounter and feel, will be dyed with color...... These colors may be bright or dark, they may be good, they may be evil, they may be heavy, or they may be light. Of course, there are also others, such as Mr. Yunjing, who is a noble person. ”
As he spoke, he paused for a moment, knowing that the eldest princess wanted to listen to the truth, so he didn't hide it, and continued: "This emperor was so well-behaved back then, maybe he was just suppressed by your sister, maybe outside, or quite naughty?"
Li Zhou'er knew what he meant, and nodded in a deep voice.
"From his childhood, he was not a man of self-control. ”
Liu Bojing said: "What's more, over the years, sitting on the throne of the emperor, supreme, a word can determine life and death, a word can obtain all things, the authority is extremely high, the heart is inevitably swollen, and it is unscrupulous, in his heart, his own family is the respect of the Ninety-Five, high, and other people's lives are just ants." ”
"When I first arrived in the West, I heard that this emperor was extremely poor and luxurious, and enjoyed himself in the palace, and that whatever he wanted, no matter whether it was good or evil, no matter what it was, no matter what he was, no matter what he was, even if he went on a killing spree, he had to get it, and if he couldn't get it, he had to break it. ”
"When I first arrived in the West, I heard stories told by the common people in the market, it is said that if you see a beautiful woman, whether the other party is married or not, you will rob it, and if you resist it, you will destroy it at every turn. ”
"Not only ordinary people, but even in the court, there are civil officials and military generals, because there are either beautiful ladies in the family, or beautiful former gold, they have suffered disasters one after another. ”
"Now those big officials in the court who hide their wives and concubines are quite at risk for everyone, and their hearts are not very stable, and in the market, openly and secretly, they are also quite infamous. ”
Liu Bojing spread his hands and said, "This is the news I have heard from the West in the past few days, and the evaluation of this emperor. But these words insult the emperor, you won't kill my head, right?"
Li Zhou'er said: "I know all this, but as the emperor, this big country is his, as long as it is not excessive, it can't be too restrained." ”
"It has long been too much to cause public resentment. Liu Bojing smiled and said: "Besides, you don't have too much restraint, don't you also have constraints? This emperor is said to have the intention to kill you?"
Li Zhou'er didn't deny it, thought for a while, and asked, "What does Mr. Liu think is the best change?"
Liu Bojing asked rhetorically: "Do you have a heart for power?"
Li Zhou'er said: "The heart of power, for me, is dispensable. ”
"Not true. Liu Bojing shook his head and smiled: "If you don't have the idea of power, how can you govern this big Western country in an orderly manner? ”
Li Zhou'er did not reply, nor did she deny it.
After a while, I heard her sigh leisurely, and her white hand gently swiped on the stone table, as if she was writing something, and asked, "What does Mr. Liu think I should do?"
Liu Bojing glanced at her quietly and thought: "Give back the power, then the eldest princess will be in danger." ”
Li Zhou'er asked, "Why?"
"Without power, the eldest princess will have no magic weapon to protect herself. Liu Bojing said: "Although you have returned the power, the emperor will always feel that you also have the ability to take back the power, and in addition, it may be that you have accumulated too much power, so that he has a deep grudge...... This emperor has been controlled by you too much, so he has always thought that you are pressing on top of his head, and now, he will never allow anyone to be above his head again. ”
"I ignored his thoughts in the first place. Li Zhou'er blamed herself a little and said, "If you have a little scruples, maybe you can put an end to it...... Now, even if I want to return my power, I, as a sister, can only run for my life?"
Liu Bojing groaned: "This is also a way, but are you really willing to hand over Xintang to him?"
Li Zhou'er hesitated, and was about to nod, but saw Liu Bojing raise his hand.
"Even if it is handed over to him, with your wisdom, can't you think of the future prospects of New Tang?"
Hearing this, Li Zhou'er was stunned.
Liu Bojing continued: "Li Zhiyong is a man who likes power and sex, but he is too brutal, and there will be rebellion in the future, and the New Tang Dynasty will inevitably erosify and even collapse. In addition, Li Zhi is very enthusiastic about the supreme imperial power, but he actually has no ambition and no ability, he just wants to be in a corner of peace, as the emperor of the Western New Tang Dynasty, he is here to be powerful, just enjoy himself for a lifetime, and get by. But ......"
Liu Bojing raised his head and said, "If you have been stable for too long, it is easy to change." ”
Li Zhou'er groaned: "I understand what you mean. ”
Now there is war in China and Turkey, but once the war in China and Turkey is settled, and the two countries of Liang and Shu will divide the victory and defeat, they will naturally pay attention to the Western side...... This place was originally a subsidiary of the Tang Dynasty in Middle-earth, and it was subject to Middle-earth.
It was only because of the wars in China and Turkey that they could not take care of it.
If Middle-earth calms down, but finds that the West has the remnants of the previous dynasty, think about it, whether it is Shu or Liang, it will not be allowed.
This is also the reason why her clan was regarded as a remnant of the previous dynasty in Middle-earth, and they were constantly hunted and killed, whether it was Liang or Shu, they never stopped such cruel killings.
"The days of peace are not long. ”
Liu Bojing said slowly: "Emperor Li Zhi only knows pleasure, does not know how to open up the territory, and does not even know how to defend the territory. Such an emperor just wants to be content with the status quo and will not follow advice, but as a result, in the future, this new Tang Dynasty will be destroyed......"
Li Zhou'er said: "The Tang Dynasty cannot be destroyed, this not only poured my hard work, but also poured the hard work of countless people, and it is the continuation of the Middle Earth Datang, this court...... It cannot be extinguished now, it cannot be extinguished in the future, and it must be passed on for thousands of generations. ”
Liu Bojing shook his head with a smile and said, "How can there be any prosperous and immortal dynasty for thousands of generations?"
After a pause, he muttered: "However, what the eldest princess wants is nothing more than to be able to pass it on for a longer time, at least not in the hands of Li Zhi." ”
Li Zhou'er asked, "What does Mr. Liu think should be done?"
"For ordinary people, to stay in power for a long time is nothing more than ascending the throne as an emperor. But the eldest princess is different after all, ......" Liu Bo said in a deep voice: "Throughout the ages, men are superior to women, this woman is unprecedented in her ascension to the emperor, which is contrary to morality, although I am more pedantic than ordinary literati, but I don't want to see this situation, and ......"
He wanted to speak and stopped, then shook his head, changed the conversation, and then said: "If the eldest princess is a man, the court will be extremely supportive." ”
"Now as a daughter, if you want to be in power for a long time, the court, no officials, military generals, or ordinary people in the market, will not want to see such a situation. ”
"At least, the Emperor Jiang who brought me here will definitely not sit idly by, I can see that he supports imperial power and humility. ”
Liu Bojing said slowly.
Li Zhou'er listened quietly, but her expression was slightly gloomy.
Men are inferior to women, and this has been the case since ancient times.
Even if she is talented, even if she is far superior to Li Zhi, but this throne can only be sat by the men of the Li family after all.
"In other words, the status quo can only be maintained?"
"Maintaining the status quo is also a practice. ”
Liu Bojing said: "When a woman ascends the throne, she will naturally turn the world upside down, but it is not uncommon to listen to politics with the curtain down. Moreover, for the eldest princess, over the years, she has also only listened to politics. ”
Li Zhou'er looked pensive and nodded slightly.
"However, for the sake of the safety of the eldest princess...... However, at this time, Liu Bojing muttered again: "Perhaps, you can set up the emperor's left and right." ”
Li Zhou'er stared at him and said, "This ......"
Liu Bojing said: "If you don't deprive yourself of authority, the emperor's assassination will definitely not stop, only if you are deprived of authority, you are the uncrowned emperor in this court." ”
Li Zhou'er said in a low voice: "It's just that in this way, this kid will definitely be even more resentful." ”
"It's nature. Liu Bojing said with a smile: "Moreover, unless the eldest princess has firmly held the power all her life, otherwise, once the emperor takes back the power, he will inevitably attack the eldest princess, the longer he is oppressed by the eldest princess, the more severely he is restrained by the eldest princess, and the more vicious he will be in the future." ”
Li Zhou'er sat down lightly and said, "But he is the emperor, and the authority of this emperor will be returned to him one day." ”
But it doesn't have to be just handed back to him. ”
Liu Bojing said slowly: "As the emperor, he has countless concubines in the harem, there will always be blood descendants, and there will always be someone who can serve as the emperor in the future." Even if he doesn't have this talent, but he is good at teaching and making him have a kind temperament, at least it is much better than the emperor's extreme resentment. ”
When Li Zhou'er heard this, she was suddenly shocked.
After thinking for a long time, I heard her say, "It's not unreasonable." ”
