- The sound of firecrackers all over the city of Leyang can be heard even in the palace.
bu
In order to keep it secret, the formula inside is mixed with some messy useless things. It is noisier than the sound of burning bamboo, but compared with the firecrackers of later generations, the sound is still very dull. If you are in a good mood, you will hear it lively, if you are in a bad mood, you will feel upset if you listen to it.
Wu Zetian couldn't help but cursed: "Are these unscrupulous people crazy?" []
"Queen Mother, today is the Shangsi Festival."
"Li Shoucheng, do you think Aijia is old?"
The maidservants dare not leave. "
"Don't be too naive. This unfilial son will not do anything to me. The purpose of doing this is to prepare an excuse to cut off everyone around me. Including my nephew, my trusted ministers, and you guys Group of slaves!¡±
"yes."
"Forget it, go and call Zhuxiang and Sansi." I was also confused and wanted to see if these prime ministers had any good plans. With many people comes many ideas.
"Here."
Several prime ministers brought them up again.
In just one afternoon, the prime ministers were changed again, replaced by Wu Chengsi, Zhai Weiwei, Wang Dezhen, Chuan Baidi, Pei Judao, and Liu Siazhi. There is also Wu Sansi who bows his head in deep thought.
Wu Zetian glanced at everyone and said, "Don't think about Pei Judao. He is his son's father-in-law. Wu Chengsi and Wang Dezhen have limited talents. They are not used to do things, but to protect their own rights." Once the power is stabilized, Wang Dezhen will inevitably be deposed.
Can Wang De really be deposed? He knew too many secrets about Wu Zetian and could only advance but not retreat. Once he retreated, Wu Zetian would definitely kill him in order not to reveal too much inside information. I didn't have the wisdom to think about it. I was still thinking hard about Wu Zetian, but I couldn't think of a good solution. The same goes for Wu Chengsi. As soon as Wu Zetian saw their expressions, she didn't ask any more questions.
The same is true for Wei Daicou. He was obedient and had gone to the Qinghai battlefield. He was promoted for the future and to control the country's military power. The military power was placed in the hands of Cheng Wuting and others, which made Wu Zetian uneasy.
So he stared at Wu Sansi, Zhai Weiwei and Liu Siizhi with his eyes. But she didn't come up with a solution, let alone these three people.
After a long silence, Wu Zetian said to Liu Lujian: "Liu Qing, what do you have in mind?"
The first one is that Liu Hanzhi is talented, the second one is his confidant, and the third one is very kind to him. From nothing, he was promoted to Beimen bachelor and then prime minister. You should work for me.
Liu Zhizhi said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty is safe and sound, and it has become inevitable to return to the country to take charge."
Wu Zetian also had to nod.
Originally, I had no intention of not letting him take charge. I just wanted to force my son to make some concessions in the distribution of power. It's just that this son is very hateful. He deliberately pretended to be dead and deliberately gave himself the opportunity to control power so that he could do some extreme things to make the people dissatisfied and lose their morality.
"Keep talking."
With Wu Zetian's encouragement, Liu Sizhi became bolder and continued: "But the crown prince must come down. We are a country in the Central Plains, and sons inherit their father's inheritance, not barbarians on the grassland, where brothers inherit their brothers' inheritance. Besides, because Regarding the matter of King Luling, the crown prince has been locked up in the palace, and the public opinion outside is not very good."
"Liu Xuzhi, there is something in your words," Wu Chengsi said dissatisfied.
"Mr. Zhou Guogong, I am seeking truth from facts."
"Liu Mianzhi, your conscience has been eaten by dogs." Wu Chengsi used to be domineering and domineering, but today he was deflated again and again, and he even used bad words.
There was another quarrel, and Wu Zetian said displeasedly: "Back off."
The prime ministers were driven out again.
Then his face darkened. Liu Miazhi's words are a very bad signal. Wu Chengsi didn't see it, but he knew it. When he pulled the third child down and helped the fourth child to ascend to the throne, he relied on two people, one was Pei Yan and the other was Liu Yizhi. He became very close to Lao Si, who once regarded him as his teacher. He was afraid that the fourth child would cause trouble in the court, so he controlled him in the palace. Liu Mianzhi lost his composure. It's for friendship, but also for power. I originally thought that by supporting the fourth child to rise to power, he would be able to leap over the dragon's gate.
Don¡¯t you know that rights are awarded to you by this palace?
If the eldest son doesn't show up, everyone is very well-behaved, but when he shows up, he becomes dishonest.
"This can't continue like this. The eldest son still doesn't know where he is. It's possible that some officials in the capital are brave enough to do the following crimes and put themselves under house arrest. Don¡¯t say it doesn¡¯t happen. There shouldn¡¯t be too many similar things in history books.
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? All of them really wanted to rebel. She might be able to tolerate Qiu Renjie and Zhu Jingze, she might be able to tolerate Su Liangsi and Chuan Fangzhi, but she could never tolerate Liu Miazhi. This is called rebellion. You have worked so hard and dared to raise a dog that does not work.??Poisonous snake.
He called Zhou Xing over and said, "Shilang Zhou, what happened on the Tianjin Bridge today has been heard by the Ai family."
"Queen Mother," Zhou Xing cried, especially for people like him, who are most afraid of death.
"It doesn't matter, Aijia can keep you safe."
Thank you Queen Mother. "
??Coax him and let him bite someone for you one last time. Then he said: "Shilang Zhou, someone has secretly reported that Liu Sinzhi supports the crown prince and intends to rebel. Go and investigate."
Zhou Xingxin leads the meeting and takes the order. However, after this time of tossing, Wu Zetian came to her senses.
It seems that relying on these prime ministers probably won't work, and you have to find a way on your own. I thought of one person, Pei Yan. The person who is truly capable is still this person, and he also has charisma. It just so happened that he had not completely dismissed his position as prime minister, and the Zhengshitang continued to stay in Zhongshu Province, and everyone retained a trace of affection.
And he has conflicts with himself, which are far less serious than the conflicts between his son and him. As soon as his son comes back, he will definitely die. So the first resolution was issued, and Pei Yan was ordered to return to Luoyang quickly and take charge of the overall situation. Luoyang must ensure a stable environment. To be stable, it must have a loyal Yulin Army, so a second edict was issued, allowing Qiu Shendian to control the Yulin Army soldiers in Luoyang. Jiang Sizong and others assisted.
The officers and soldiers of the various gates in the west of Chang'an must also be stable, otherwise a big joke will appear today. A third edict was issued, allocating one million coins and silk from the treasury to reward officers and soldiers of all walks of life, including those in the north. army. Stably win over the morale of the military.
Still not enough, another edict was issued, and Zhang Qianxun was transferred from the northern army to guard the west with Linghu Zhitong. These two generals were both generals who betrayed their sons and were at odds with their sons. They were guarding the west to ensure that nothing happened. But another thing comes to mind. What if Qi Wuzheng tells the truth and his son comes back from the north? She couldn't think of a strategy to resolve the situation, and she didn't know much about military affairs, so she wrote a letter about what happened and gave it to Cheng Wuting for him to make his own judgment.
After issuing these defensive measures, Wu Zetian felt a little calmer. But it is not a real resolution strategy.
At this time, Li Shoucheng walked in and whispered: "Queen Mother, just now the East Palace sent female officer Liu Qun to Zhu Jingze's house."
¡°I can¡¯t bear it anymore so quickly,¡± Wu Zetian became angry again and said, ¡°Go, send people to the East Palace and beat this Liu Qun to death.¡±
"Queen Mother, no, you have to leave some room." Li Shoucheng pulled up the sleeves of Wu Zetian's skirt anxiously and said: "It doesn't matter if the Queen Mother kills her, I'm just afraid that Your Majesty will come back and follow the Queen Mother's example and kill the slaves too. The slaves are dead too." He died, but the loyal slave serves the Queen Mother."
You can kill the eunuchs and maids in the East Palace, and the emperor can kill us when he comes back. No matter how talented you are, without our group of subordinates to do things for you, you will be ignored by the emperor.
"Then you go and give the order to whip her twenty times."
"Here. Also, Queen Mother, I have a suggestion."
"explain."
"Since His Majesty has issued an edict to pardon Qiu Renjie and Zhu Jingze, and it is not easy to do anything about it, why not the Queen Mother also issue an edict to pardon their crimes. There are still six families, so there will be less excuses for Your Majesty in the future."
"You want the mourning family to actually surrender to their son?"
"Your Majesty, I don't dare. Times are different. Your Majesty, please think twice." Li Shoucheng was so frightened that he knelt down.
In fact, from the beginning to the end, he was dissatisfied with some of Wu Zetian's actions. Originally, Qinghai had said well that everyone would cooperate in the future, and the emperor also promised to allocate some rights to the queen mother, even if she was in charge of the government, she would also retain the opportunity for the queen mother to participate in politics. Isn't that great? Why did the Queen Mother press harder and harder, finally leading to today's situation?
This is his and Li Wei's idealization.
Since ancient times, one mountain cannot tolerate two tigers. How is this possible?
Wu Zetian¡¯s approach was more realistic, but she suffered a disadvantage because of her status. As a female, Li Wei Ni conquered Nanzhao, gained military power and the art of war taught by Pei Xingjian, and controlled most of the army. Otherwise, it may not be known who will win.
"I don't believe in others, but I believe in this old eunuch Wu Zetian." After pondering for a moment, he immediately pardoned him, which didn't sound very good. It would even make people think that he was afraid of his son and would give in without fighting. If you are afraid, who will dare to help you again?
After thinking for a while, he said: "You sent an edict to Yuan Wanqing, asking him to write an edict for the Ai family and issue it to the world. Your Majesty, by God's blessing, is safe and sound. The Ai family will go to the White Horse Temple to hold a ceremony to thank God. Also, amnesty for the whole world.¡±
Since the world is amnesty, Qiu Renjie and Zhu Jingze will be fine. And the family was able to return. I did not lose face, but I also made a statement to the people of the world, which somewhat brought back some gains.?Morality.
"Queen Mother, what a clever idea."
"Don't be wordy, go get this matter done."
The next day, the sky cleared up and the weather was pleasant, neither cold nor hot. Thousands of flowers bloomed and bees and butterflies danced wildly. Qi Wuzheng walked in with a smile and said, "Mr. Qiu, everything is fine."
"oh."
"The Queen Mother issued an edict granting amnesty to the whole world."
????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Out of disapproval, she would not forgive the world. Does she dare to continue to kill Qiu Renjie and Zhu Jingze by force at this time? Is she really not prepared to leave a way out? But by granting amnesty to the whole country, we can save ourselves the trouble.
"What else?" The cavalry officer told what he heard.
"The Queen Mother is still not reconciled."
So what if you are willing? "Cai Wuzheng curled his lips and flew away.
"Don't underestimate the Queen Mother."
Zhu Jingze walked out of the house and asked, "What's going on?"
I drank too much wine and yelled for half the night, my throat was a little hoarse. The cavalry officer smiled and said, "Zhu Shaojian, the song you sang last night was very nice."
"Singing?" I drank too much and forgot all about it. The guards just laughed, and Qiu Renjie whispered in his ear.
Zhu Jingze felt very ashamed and said: "It seems you can't drink too much, as eating too much will cause trouble." But it was understandable, even Qiu Renjie himself lost his composure, firstly to escape from death, and secondly to confirm that Li Wei was safe and sound. thing.
??????????? Then the cavalry officer gave instructions to the guards, they should be careful, there probably won¡¯t be any bright swords anymore, but there¡¯s no guarantee that there won¡¯t be hidden arrows.
The White Horse Temple became lively.
After her old age, the places Wu Zetian visited most often were White Horse Temple and Shaolin Temple. Shaolin Temple is located in Songshan Mountain and has a more royal atmosphere. However, the journey is a bit far and I dare not leave Luoyang at this time. Only then did the ** Association be located at Baima Temple.
Many great monks came.
There are also many people who go to White Horse Temple to offer incense, thinking that it is God¡¯s help, and they go together to fulfill their wishes. However, Wu Zetian was still handling government affairs in the wing of White Horse Temple. Very nostalgic. I saw a memorial written by Li Chongyi, the governor of Xiazhou. The memorial said that Tuyuhun Khan Nuohebo followed the Queen Mother's edict and led 5,000 troops to support Shuozhou and successfully passed through Xiazhou. He himself sent out two thousand soldiers to assist.
The Queen Mother had asked Tuyuhun to send reinforcements. She was afraid, so she had to send some of her troops to go on her own initiative. Regardless of whether you can take credit or not, at least you will not be held accountable afterwards.
Wu Zetian was a little confused. How often would she issue an edict to Nuo Hebo to send troops? But he didn't care. Maybe Nuo Yibo was from Tyuhun and the two parties didn't communicate well, which caused him to misunderstand. This was because Nuo Hebo didn't know that his son was alive and well, so he took the initiative to show his kindness to him. But what can five thousand Tuyuhun soldiers do? This time the Turks dispatched 200,000 troops!
Put down the memorial and continue reading the next book.
The meeting was held for three days, and Wu Zetian returned to Luoyang. Luoyang is still very peaceful for the time being, and nothing else happens. But as soon as Wu Zetian put down the Buddhist scriptures, she raised the butcher's knife. After being interrogated by Zhou Xing, Liu Sinzhi could not bear the torture and admitted to treason.
The crime of rebellion is the most serious crime in this era, but Qiu Renjie does not care about a few lives.
Beheaded immediately.
"This sword strike carries a strong warning. Don't think that just because Your Majesty is back, you can do whatever you want. If you don't listen to me, I can still kill you."
In fact, Liu Siazhi was still a good talent, but because he was implicated in He Lan Minzhi's case, he was unable to use him for a long time and was forced to be attached to Wu Zetian's sect. There were a few officials who didn't want to climb up the ranks, so why did Qiu Renjie recommend himself to see Li Wei in the first place? There are some selfish motives, but how many people have no selfish motives?
But overall, I still have talent and good moral character. However, he got involved in political struggles and lacked vision, which eventually led to his death.
Many people died, and they had an ambiguous relationship with Wu Zetian, so the people of Luoyang ignored it.
At this time, Wu Chengsi walked into the inner palace again to ask for an audience. Qu Ping's informant letter came into Wu Chengsi's hands. Wu Chengsi originally only planned to write a letter and ask Qu Ping to strangle Kong Zhengfang for him and then leave. Anyway, the chaos in the north due to the Turkic invasion was so severe that it would be easy to lay any charges on them. But this time he suddenly became smart and felt something was wrong. Why did Kong Zhengfang end up in Taiyuan City?
Kong Zhengfang did well in his previous affairs, but when he escaped later, he did not do well and almost missed a major event.
Wu Zetian hummed and asked casually: "He has arrived in Bingzhou?"
At first, it was just a question. A small county official had not caught her eye yet.
Suddenly, his hair stood on end and he said, "Show Qu Ping's letter to the Ai family."
Qu Ping?It was written very clearly on how he came to seek refuge with him, why he hesitated during the questioning, and why he gave him an answer more than twenty days later. He also revealed his guess that he was not If you come here well, you must have a mission. As for what, it has not been set out.
Wu Zetian hurriedly rummaged through the memorials again and found Li Chengyi's memorial. He said loudly: "Quick, quick, inform Li Xiaoyi and Cheng Wuting that my son is in Nuohebo's army."
Amazing intuition!
Just as the guard was about to go down to deliver the order, Wu Zetian waved his hand again and said, "No need."
It¡¯s too late, maybe the two armies have already joined together.
Thinking of this, Wu Zetian sat down dejectedly. The building was about to collapse. Even if she had great abilities, it would be difficult for her to recover. For a moment, it seemed as if his hair was turning white with anxiety. (To be continued
