    In front of all the officials in the morning court, the new Yushi Zhongcheng Lord Zhou said angrily: "Recently, the Yushidai received a secret report from the direction of Jiannan Road. Someone reported that the current Jiannan Jiedushi Wang Yu secretly accepted bribes from Mengshe's edict.  I think this matter was probably done by Tibetan spies, and their intention is nothing more than to drive a wedge between us, the Tang Dynasty, and Meng Shezhao, and I would like to ask the Holy Spirit to give you a clear warning and give Master Wang Yu his innocence!" I wrote to Zhou Ziliang on Tuesday!  It was clearly revealed in the book that Wang Yu secretly accepted bribes, but when Zhou Ziliang revealed it at the court meeting, it seemed that someone was maliciously slandering Wang Yu. This shows that Lao Zhou's political methods have gradually become more sophisticated, and he is no longer as reckless as before.  Despite Zhou Ziliang's understatement, because there had been an in-depth debate among the ministers on whether to help Mengshe Zhao pacify the other five imperial edicts, he suddenly made a suggestion that Wang Yu might be maliciously slandered. On the contrary,  Everyone's attention and thoughts were immediately drawn to Wang Yu!  Including Li Longji, everyone said nothing for a moment, but in their hearts they were beating a little drum.  "If Piluo Pavilion really wants to take advantage of our court and doesn't want us to see his wolfish ambitions, the best way is to let the officials of our court speak for him! Wang Yu, as the Jiedushi of Jiannan Road, is far away from Meng Meng.  He gave up the imperial edict recently, and because of his noble status, his speech has a lot of weight Now, Wang Yu's memorial is in the court. He speaks well of Piluo Pavilion and takes advantage of the merger of the six imperial edicts. If he says that he  It¡¯s really unbelievable that he didn¡¯t accept the benefits from Piluo Pavilion in private!¡± Seeing that all the ministers were suspicious, this time Li Linfu was the first to speak out the doubts in everyone¡¯s mind!  This is the greatness of Li Linfu.  He is different from those short-sighted power traitors who oppose everything just for the sake of opposition, without weighing the priorities of things or observing whether the entire situation is conducive to their own interests.  Li Linfu was not familiar with Wang Yu, and he actually agreed with the opinions of Zhang Jiuling and other ministers. He would rather believe that Meng Shezhao had a disobedient heart than to be fooled by the respectful and obedient Meng Shezhao showed in front of him.  .  Although he had nothing to do with Zhang Jiuling, Zhou Ziliang and others, Li Linfu was more concerned about his impression in the emperor's mind. Li Longji was obviously suspicious now, so Li Linfu immediately followed the emperor's wishes.  It seemed like he had become a bad person for once.  Indeed.  After hearing what Li Linfu said, the emperor nodded solemnly, and then said slowly: "Li Qing's words are reasonable, even if Wang Yu was slandered this time. However, his identity is too sensitive. I want to avoid it."  It is not easy for others to doubt him. Now it seems that the decision to send troops to Nanzhao needs to be carefully considered and should not be rushed." When the ministers saw Li Longji's change of mind, they all praised the emperor's wisdom.  Then the meeting dispersed.  When the ministers left one after another, the emperor ordered people to summon Zhang Jiuling, Li Yi, Li Linfu, Niu Xianke, Du Hope, Zhou Ziliang and others to go to the imperial study to talk. ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ?? or ??two of the former and former chief ministers of the cabinet.  After the six ministers had arrived, Li Longji asked Zhou Ziliang straight to the point: "Qing Zhou, in your opinion, how likely is it that Wang Yu accepted bribes from Piluo Pavilion privately?" Zhou Ziliang asked Zhou Ziliang expressionlessly and carefully.  He replied: "There is no evidence for this matter. I should not make any judgments!" Li Longji was not angry at Zhou Ziliang's stylized answer. Although he was already very suspicious of Wang Yu in his heart, he hoped that his imperial minister would  Shi Zhongcheng can maintain an objective and calm attitude when encountering problems, and does not make judgments based on personal likes and dislikes or other people's attitudes.  Li Longji continued: "You are all my humerus. There are no outsiders here. If you have any thoughts and opinions, you can express them clearly. No words will leave the imperial study room today!" After the emperor said this, he saw Gao Lishi.  He exited the room very consciously and personally stood guard at the door of the imperial study room.  Everyone knows the relationship between Gao Lishi and the emperor. Now that Gao Lishi is guarding the door for everyone, it is enough to prove that the emperor attaches great importance to today's conversation.  Zhang Jiuling had already had a detailed discussion with Zhou Ziliang in private, so he had already made up his mind at this time. He did not take into account his current status as a "policy advisor" and said loudly: "Your Majesty, I believe that regardless of whether Wang Yu accepts it or not,  Regarding bribery, at this critical moment, the candidate for Jiannan Jiedushi must be replaced! I suggest that your majesty might as well write a letter to Wang Yu directly and tell him clearly that the Tibetan spies maliciously slandered him and accepted bribes to see what he has to offer.  Action, and then decide on the follow-up actions." As soon as Zhang Jiuling finished speaking, Li Longji's eyes lit up.  Lao Zhang deserves to be the chief minister for many years. With just a few words, he solved a difficult problem for the emperor.    The current situation is that the emperor and the ministers in the court are inclined to believe that Wang Yu may have received benefits, but without conclusive evidence, it is difficult to attack Wang Yu openly.  However, now that the seeds of doubt have been planted, if they cannot be eliminated, it will be a worry for both the court and Wang Yu.  If Li Longji writes a letter to Wang Yu, making it clear that he does not believe the dissenting words of the Tibetan spies, then regardless of whether Wang Yu really accepts the benefits of Piluo Pavilion, as long as he still has some political acumen, he will take the initiative  He proposed to the court that he should leave the position of Jiedushi of Jiannan.  The reason is very simple. If the emperor really didn¡¯t doubt Wang Yu, why bother writing him a letter?  What¡¯s more important is that Wang Yu did accept the heavy gift from Piluo Pavilion. After seeing the emperor¡¯s letter, he had a guilty conscience. Apart from quickly thinking of ways to show his loyalty, what other actions did he dare to do?  Wang Yu is not An Lushan, and the emperor at this time is not an old and ignorant person. Even if Wang Yu was given a hundred courages, he would not dare to rebel in Jiannan Road!  Wang Yu didn¡¯t dare to rebel, and he wanted to save his head. The only way was to leave Jiannan Road, a place of right and wrong, as soon as possible!  As for whether he accepted the benefits from Piluo Pavilion, it no longer mattered after he left Jiannan Road, because compared to the crime of cheating, accepting some benefits in private was not a heinous crime.  "Zhang Qing's suggestion is very much to my liking. Please ask Zhou Zhongcheng to write a letter to Wang Yu in my tone!" After hearing the emperor's words, Zhou Ziliang felt bitter in his heart.  The emperor asked him to ghostwrite. To put it bluntly, he was using his reputation as the censor Zhongcheng to beat Wang Yu and make Wang Yu fully realize the importance of this letter.  The emperor was silently telling Wang Yu: "If you know the truth, come back from Jiannan Road! If you don't know the truth, then I will send Zhou Ziliang to talk to you!" While Zhou Ziliang was writing  On the occasion of the letter, Li Longji asked the ministers again: "After Wang Yu leaves office, who can replace him to guard Jiannan?" Li Linfu did not wait for Zhang Jiuling to speak, and immediately replied: "I recommend Zhang Yanzhou to be a famous scholar in the city, and the famous general Zhang Han will be empressed.  Ren Zhangqiu Jianqiong was appointed as the Jiedushi envoy of Jiannan!" Zhang Jiuling originally wanted to recommend Guo Yingyi, the governor of Shanzhou, as the Jiedushi envoy of Jiannan.  I heard that Zhangchou Jianqiong recommended by Li Linfu was also a good candidate.  So he kept silent.  This is Lao Zhang¡¯s character. As long as he thinks the candidate is suitable, he will not compete with Li Linfu.  Although Zhangchou Jianqiong's name sounds hard to pronounce, he was also a scholar who read poetry and books.  He has been an official in Shu for many years.  His official reputation has always been good.  Even Zhang Jiuling heard a lot about it in Chang'an, the capital city.  Seeing that Zhang Jiuling did not propose a candidate, the emperor turned to Li Yi and Niu Xianke and asked: "Li Qing recommended Zhangchou Jianqiong to me. I wonder if you have any other suitable candidates to recommend to me?" Li Yi is senior.  Important minister.  Being from a royal family, he would not worry about Li Linfu, so he replied: "I think Du Shilang is also a good choice! In addition, the current Governor of Shanzhou, Guo Yingyi, and the Governor of Anxi Governorate, Gai Jiayun, are both qualified!" Niu Xianke  Seeing the emperor staring at him and expressing his position, he did not want to offend Li Linfu, so he had to bite the bullet and said: "The few people recommended by Prime Minister Li and the old man are all worthy of important responsibilities, and I all agree." The remaining two did not express their position.  It was Du Hope and Zhou Ziliang.  Li Yi recommended Du Hope in person. At this time, he couldn't say anything more, so he remained silent.  But Zhou Ziliang, who was busy writing to Wang Yu, had heard all the news, and actually stopped writing and said: "I have a suggestion, it is better to divide Jiannan Road into two parts, and make them Jiannan Xichuan Jiedushi and Jiannan Road respectively.  Among them, the Xichuan Jiedushi was responsible for fighting against Tubo and barbarian tribes in the southwest, while the Dongchuan Jiedushi was mainly responsible for managing the civil affairs of central Sichuan. As a result, the two Sichuan had different priorities.  It is not only convenient for court management, but also in line with local reality." After hearing this, Li Longji and several ministers pondered deeply, each pondering the feasibility of Zhou Ziliang's proposal.  Soon after, Zhang Jiuling was the first to speak: "I think Zhou Zhongcheng's proposal is very good. If implemented, it will have long-term significance for stabilizing the southwest!" Li Yi and Niu Xianke figured out the key points and nodded in praise of this proposal.  Although Li Linfu was a little unhappy, feeling that his promotion of Zhangchou Jianqiong had been weakened a bit, he also felt that Zhou Ziliang's proposal was far-sighted, so he praised it sincerely and said: "Zhou Zhongcheng's proposal is from a high position. It is indeed true."  It¡¯s very impressive!¡± Li Longji saw that all the ministers were very supportive of Zhou Ziliang¡¯s proposal, so he nodded and said, ¡°Well, Zhou Qing¡¯s proposal seems to be an understatement, but it captures the key to the Jiannan issue.  Since everyone has no objections, let¡¯s take the time to draw up a statement and let the officials discuss it at the next court meeting.¡±   "Since Jiannan Road will be divided into east and west Sichuan, then Guo Yingyi, the governor of Shanzhou, is appointed as the military governor of Jiannan and Xichuan, and Zhangchou Jianqiong is appointed as the military governor of Jiannan and Dongchuan. What do you think? As for what you think?  "Shilang Du, I need you to continue to assist Li Qing in handling the affairs of the Ministry of War, so don't go to Jiannan!" All ministers know that Guo Yingyi is good at fighting and Zhangqiu Jianqiong is good at government. The emperor's arrangement of the candidates is most suitable, so they unanimously agreed.  , followed by all kinds of flattery But no one in the imperial study would have thought that today's closed-door discussion would be of great significance and far-reaching influence, directly related to the national destiny of the Tang Dynasty for thousands of years.  It can even be said to be a historical turning point that determined the fate of the Tang Dynasty!  If Zhou Chengye, who was far away in Longyou, had not urged his father Zhou Ziliang to prevent Nanzhao from annexing the other five tribes, not only would the Tang Dynasty have a powerful enemy, but the mediocre Wang Yu would also be appointed as the envoy to Jiannan Jiedu.  A whole year of blindness.  In just one year, Wang Cao Baoyu was jealous of the achievements of Longyou and Hexi armies, so he launched a war against Tubo from Jiannan Road. As a result, the entire army was annihilated, which caused the Tang Dynasty to suffer a long period of war.  There are no troops available in the southwest, and we can only watch Nanzhao become stronger in the southwest!  Now, Wang Yuhui will be removed, Piluo Ge's ambition will be curbed, Governor Guo, who is good at fighting tough battles, will go to Xichuan, and the great wheel of history will completely deviate from its original trajectory!
