Just after New Year's Day, Di Renjie handed over a memorial.
" was written by Liu Yizhi in Luoyang. He is Liu Zhi's brother. Because of his eldest brother's talent, his reputation has always been unknown. But in terms of literary talent, he still has some attainments. After being implicated this time, all official positions were wiped out.
After Li Wei returned to Beijing, he posed a problem to the people of the world, and Tailai refused.
And issued an edict, and those who stated the reasons were heavily rewarded. There were quite a few people who submitted letters, but they had no new ideas, and some of them were even more inaccurate.
Only Liu Yizhi¡¯s petition gave Di Renjie a surprise.
But the matter was so important that he could not make the decision, so it was left to Li Wei.
Li Wei opened it and took a look, it read;
The sky and the earth were chaotic, and Pangu's ax split the yin and yang. The yang was filled with qi, so it was up, and the yin was qi sinking, so it was down. Then all things came into being, hundreds of people came out, and there were saint kings behind themthe people were Water, the king, is the boat. The king governs all the people, obeys the will of the people, conforms to the people's etiquette, and the country's destiny is long
It said a lot, and it roughly means that when the heaven and the earth opened, the common people came first, and then the kings. Just like the relationship between water and a boat, there would be no boat without water. Although the king is the parents of the people, he must treat the people well.
Otherwise, the country will not protect you. Therefore, as a king, you must maintain a humble and kind heart, only in this way can you gain the support of the people. Just like the Tai hexagram, if the people of Kun are placed above it and the rulers and officials are placed below it, then the country can be governed well. Otherwise, the king already has unlimited power, and if he does not exercise restraint, he will inevitably become poor and eventually perish. Therefore, the Qian hexagram, which is light and lofty, can never be placed on top of the Kun hexagram. Otherwise, bad things will happen. In one example, Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty had this attitude and regarded all the people as stupid dogs. As a result, the great Sui Dynasty fell into ruin in just a few decades.
It was said very implicitly and obscurely.
Indeed, as people nowadays, it is difficult for ordinary people to dare to express this meaning.
But it¡¯s close to what Li Wei had in mind.
If we want the national destiny to last longer, the key is a good system and the distribution of rights. The monarch's power was gradually weakened, but this power could not be concentrated in the hands of a single minister. So he returned to Li Shimin's political hall system.
In the future, you need to do some mobilization and depend on the response of the people. Don't take too big a step, otherwise you'll lose more than you gain.
He called Wei Yuanzhong, Di Renjie and other prime ministers in and handed over this manual to them for reading.
Wei Zhigu said worriedly, "Your Majesty, Liu Yizhi saw that your Majesty was humble, so he dared to offend him in order to gain the favor of your Majesty again and enter his official career. This kind of public opinion is unnecessary. If all the people despise the monarchy, the consequences will be unimaginable. .¡±
"Wei Qing, look at it again. He only said that people should keep a humble heart and treat the people like beasts. Did he say anything else?"
I don¡¯t know what Liu Yizhi was thinking. Maybe he saw what he was thinking. Maybe he was not used to living a civilian life, so he took the gamble. But this explanation came just in time. Without it, I would have taken the initiative to announce the answer after a while.
"If there are unworthy descendants in the future, then the ministers in the court can take it out and make it a law to admonish. Take a look and see what your ancestors said to deny it." You can't behave like this. It will play some supervisory role and it is also easy to cultivate the integrity of ministers.
You are ministers of the country, people who do things, not slaves of the king. Its role cannot be underestimated. If you are successful when you are in power, you will have a huge influence on future generations. For example, the Zhao Kuangyin brothers' emphasis on literature over military affairs continued to influence the late Southern Song Dynasty and even the Ming Dynasty.
"For the next edict #, let him serve as the censor. By the way, I will issue his summary to the world. A ruler must maintain a humble heart. If I do not do well in the future, no matter who I am, I will be punished. You can give me advice."
The emperor himself insists on being a hard-working emperor, what else can he say? The ministers had no choice but to call him "here".
Li Wei didn¡¯t expect that Lu Shi would come so quickly.
Before the Lantern Festival, Wu Lu led a group of people to Chang'an.
Li Wei met her in the palace and sent away all the maids and eunuchs with a wave of his hand. Ask; "Why did you come in person?"
"I miss you so much, I came to Chang'an to visit you." Meili stretched out and said coquettishly.
"Where is my son?"
"He is in Yangtong, my mother's family, and he is very good. Don't worry. At this time, the Gar brothers are very resentful. Even if I put my son in their hands, I would not dare to hurt him. Otherwise, they will not be responsible for the consequences. .¡±
"But do you know how dangerous your business is?"
The Lun brothers can use their son to be a puppet emperor and order Tubo to??However, Lu's may not have this effect. At home, due to several defeats, Tubo was under great pressure and the people were very angry and did not dare to take action against the Melu clan.
But before the Lu family came to the Tang Dynasty, if they did some tricks on the way back to put this crime on the Tang Dynasty, this problem would be easily solved. Without the support of the Lu family, his son would have become the puppet of the Lun brothers. It is even possible that he will not understand his true life experience for the rest of his life.
"Don't worry. When I came, I had already thought about it and secretly ordered the sheep and some tribes. When I went back, I divided into two groups, one going back from Qinghai. The other way, I went back from the Western Regions by myself and passed through southern Khotan. From Shankou to Yangtong. Once we reach Yangtong, I will be safe. Unless you intend to leak the secret, but will you?"
¡°It¡¯s still very risky.¡±
"I just miss you."
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? Half true. He was also paying attention to Tubo affairs. Although the intelligence was lagging behind, he knew something about the situation. Tubo is under great pressure. Since it sent all its troops back last year, it has been under great pressure. Some measures were taken. For example, they cut off salt roads and trade routes and retaliated, making the situation in Tibet even worse.
The most important thing is to take possession of morality yourself.
"Whether it is in Qinghai, Jiannan, or the Western Regions, it is all done by the Tubo people, or rather the Gar brothers.
At this time, the Lu family "risked" coming to the Tang Dynasty to find a way out for the people. It can be said that they came with a halo. Once successful, it will win huge popularity for the Melu family. In fact, the so-called danger was not in the Tang Dynasty, but in Tubo.
As long as the conditions are not excessive, how can I be embarrassed not to agree?
With this reputation, coupled with the assistance of the Zanpu ministers who are gradually gaining the upper hand, the Bulu family can gradually carve up power from the Gar brothers. Unless the Gar brothers dare to risk the disapproval of the world and forcibly kill the Meulu family. But right now, can their reputation be risked?
¡°But it¡¯s not a long-term solution.
"Yes, but our son is still young. After all, I am a woman, not your mother, who has such a strong hand. I can only think of a solution when our son grows up for a few years."
On Qin Ling, not only the abdomen of Lu's heart, it is also a major suffering from the Tang Dynasty. For example, in Qinghai, in the Western Regions, how many troops were stationed in Jiannan? It's not possible without garrison. With this person in Tubo, if there is the slightest mistake on the border, it will become his happy hunting ground.
"It's not easy either."
"I have thought about it, and I need your cooperation. If you lure him out, I will control Luoxue City and destroy his lair. I'm afraid our Tibetan army will not all follow him."
Li Wei thought deeply, even if this was the case, mother and son would still be taking huge risks without the Lu family. But it's still early, don't be in a hurry, if it really doesn't work, I'll spend some effort and make some cooperation when the time comes.
Mrs. Meulu said again, "I'm here to ask for a marriage for our son."
As for opening up salt roads and commercial roads, Lu Shi didn¡¯t even mention it. Didn¡¯t Li Wei agree?
"You're a fool, you actually asked for my little sister's hand in marriage last time."
"That way others won't be suspicious. But as your son grows older, you can figure it out yourself."
"No, people with the same surname cannot marry, haven't you heard?" If he really married a princess or princess, his son's life experience would have to be concealed for the rest of his life. In fact, people's concept of so-called close relatives not marrying was still relatively backward at this time. Why can't people with the same surname be married seven or eight generations apart? People with different surnames, uncles, cousins, and brothers, are not also closely related by blood? This cannot be said. As an emperor, he must abide by the rules of this era.
"That's at least a woman from five surnames and seven families."
Li Wei was a little sweaty. Women from five surnames and seven families were more delicate than women from the clan. Who would want to marry into Tubo?
"That's your son."
"I know."
It¡¯s just not successful. Once successful, Wu Lu¡¯s reputation will rise to a higher level. The cannibals may not know this, but how could the Tubo people not know how noble the women of the five surnames and seven families of the Tang Dynasty were? However, do I have to make some concessions to get a certain family to agree?
After thinking about it, don¡¯t even think about the Cui family of Qinghe, the Cui family of Boling, the Lu family of Fanyang, the Li family of Zhaozhou and the Li family of Longxi. Only the Wang family in Taiyuan has always maintained a close relationship with the clan, or the Zheng family in Xingyang. But even so, I'm afraid I won't agree without making huge concessions. Since he is the emperor, is it possible to use force to force a marriage?
"Let me try it."
This sentence is enough. Wu Lu blinked her beautiful eyes and said, "I heard that the palace is very lively during the Shangyuan Festival. I raced all the way just to see the prosperity of the Shangyuan Festival in Chang'an City."
"If you want?, just stay. "
"Anyway, there's no rush. I'll stay in Chang'an for a month or two. Also, since it's rare for me to come here, I can't touch your concubine in the harem. You have to leave it to me." As he spoke, he glanced, glanced, To somewhere.
????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????Outside of the family, if you want to win conditions for Tubo, you have to negotiate with the emperor of the Tang Dynasty slowly and step by step. Moreover, since she was the Queen Mother, it was in line with etiquette for the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty to receive her. Maybe the people of Tibet will cry or be moved. Look, how much risk our Queen Mother has taken for our survival. But I didn't expect it to be such a sexy negotiation scene.
After a long time, the two tied up their clothes. Wu Lushi lay in his arms like a Persian cat and asked softly, "Your Majesty, you have such a good appetite. What does that princess from the West feel like?"
How does this feel? At most, the visual enjoyment is slightly different.
But at this moment, Li Wei was a little crazy. He never imagined that he would be entangled with two queen mothers in this life. One is the biological mother, and it is difficult to distinguish between grudges and grudges. One is a lover and cannot control where the future will go.
After seeing off the Bu Lu family, Di Renjie walked in.
Asked: "Di Qing, what's the matter?"
Di Renjie opened his mouth, not knowing what to say. After a long time, he said: "Your Majesty, you must be measured."
"I understand."
Suddenly, there was another burst of firecrackers outside the palace. The days were peaceful, and the people's hearts were full of joy when they met the New Year, and the firecrackers were set off vigorously. But the footsteps of spring, with the sound of firecrackers, are gradually coming.
