Chapter 296: Calculate the Dragon (I)

Li Xian was still hesitant at the beginning. His close aide, Lu Yi, the head of the Yong Prince's Mansion, persuaded: "Your Highness, the prince offended Your Majesty several times and the Queen of Heaven. Your Majesty was disappointed, so he had this order. If Your Majesty did it, it was in accordance with the will of heaven, and it might make Your Majesty accomplish great things. Even if it failed, the prince was weak and begged him, and he would not be in danger of his life. However, Your Majesty hesitated again and again, and the two emperors were angry and disappointed, which was against the will of heaven, which was not good for Your Majesty."

Then he waved his hand: "The great cause is here to take action. The prince has only been in charge of the country for many years. If you talk about talent, is Your Highness less than him?"

I was still hesitant, my strength was too small, and I didn’t do anything last time, so I let my elder brother’s party members beat him to pieces. Can I be willing to forgive once, and can I be willing to forgive again?

Just then, Suzhou Governor Cao, Li Ming, and Yizhou Governor Jiang, Li Wei, entered Beijing. Li Ming was the son of Li Shimin, nominally Li Yuanji's stepson and Xue Yuanchao's brother-in-law. Li Wei was the son of Li Yun who was falsely accused of committing suicide last year. So in order to express his apology, Li Zhi rewarded the children of Jiang Wang Li Yun very well, and immediately asked his son to succeed his father's title and serve as the governor of Yizhou. These two princes were also one of the kings with great say in the Tang Dynasty.

The two of them invited Li Xian to have a drink in a letter. During the meal, Li Ming said ambiguously: "If King Yong is interested, he is willing to do something for King Yong."

Li Xian pondered silently.

Li Ming said again: "I am willing to persuade Yuan Chao to help."

"Uncle, why did you help me?"

"The prince is lonely and indifferent to the royal family, and he is very disappointed."

In other words, Li Wei was usually a noble person and rarely interacted with the royal family. Li Ming could not get along with him, so he joined forces with Li Xian to support Li Xian to the stage, so he could become even more successful. Although he became a prince, the prince and the prince were also different. Some could serve as a grand governor, some were idle in the capital, and the fiefs and rewards given were different.

However, as the prince, Li Wei was careful with his important officials. His father began to be afraid of how to get close to the royal disciples. At most, during the banquet, he would make a polite chat with each other. Don’t say that the two kings were outside the country and the royal disciples in the capital, Li Wei rarely had contact with each other in order to avoid suspicion.

Li Xian's heart finally began to move. Without mentioning anything else, if he wins over Xue Yuanchao, he has a great say in front of his father, and there are many ministers close to him. The power of his elder brother is only secretly supported by several prime ministers, so even his mother cannot even be dismissed. But at this time, several prime ministers are already old and moved to the Secretariat and the Secretariat. They must avoid taboos, make the position of the prime minister vacant, and observe the father's intention... In fact, Li Xian is not bad either, but he has less training, and he thinks about the front and back and forth and says, "Then I will do it according to the emperor's will."

"It should be!"

They parted in joy.

With another news, Hejing County Lord celebrated his birthday the day after tomorrow. After several years of exile in Jiannan, Xue Yuanchao's family lived in poverty. The poor life either made people grow up. Many children from poor families had high ambitions, such as Fan Zhongyan, a model of a true scholar-official, was related to his poor life as a young man, or made people more greedy and full of desire for money. Hejing County Lord became the latter. Di Renjie heard about it, let alone Li Xian.

So he did something stupid and took away Ming Chongyan's money.

Is this money easy to collect? Whether it is Xue Yuanchao or Zhang Da'an, they are ministers and they are restrained in their work. However, in order to achieve their goals, Ming Chongyan could do anything and had a bad reputation. But after collecting money, there was always a benefit. Six thousand gold was in hand, but he did not give it money. The vulgarity sent someone to spend more than a thousand gold to buy expensive gifts to send to Xue Mansion to congratulate Hejing County Lord. The brother-in-law's encouragement, his wife blew his ears beside the pillow, and Xue Yuanchao was the first to bow to Li Xian's disciple. Then he wrote a letter saying that King Yong was old and stayed in the palace, so he should move out of the palace and establish a mansion. That is, he could only move out, which was also allowed by the system.

But when moved out, it really became a bird that could fly in the sky and a bird that could fly in the sea and a fish that could swim in the fish. It could win over all officials at will.

Hao Chujun said to Li Zhi worryingly: "In the past, Shi Bei told Duke Zhuang of Wei that he heard that he loved his son and taught him well. He did not accept evil, and was arrogant and extravagant, and he was evil. The four things come from him, and he was favored and miserable. He was about to establish a state and then settled. If he was not yet, he would be a disaster. If he favored him but was not arrogant, he would be able to surrender, but he would not provoke him, and he would be able to surrender but not provoke him, and he would be able to surrender but not provoke him, and he would be able to ruin his regrets. Moreover, the lowly hindered his nobles, the young straits are too old, the new straits are too old, the new straits are too old, and the small straits are too big, and the lust is broken. The so-called six rebellions are righteous, the ministers are kind, the father is kind, the son is filial, the brother is loved, and the younger brother is respected. The so-called six rebellions are too far away, so he will be in trouble. Duke Zhuang of Wei did not listen, so the Wei State is in trouble."

Wei State was not a great country in the Spring and Autumn Period. At that time, Duke Zhuang of Wei was extremely favored and married the daughter of Qi Jiang and favored him. He had no son. The Wei people wrote a poem "Qi Shuo" to write a poem "Qi Shuo", so he used Chen's son Xiaobo as his adopted son. However, Duke Zhuang of Wei also favored another son Zhou Xu. Later, Xiaobo succeeded to the throne, and Zhou Xu plotted chaos and killed Xiaobo, but he was cruel and the people were dissatisfied. Shi Hou used a plan to kill Zhou Xu with the hands of the Chen people, and asked the housekeeper to go to Chen to kill Shi Hou, who was accomplice to the evil, which was the origin of destroying his relatives for justice.

This history was just a small wave in the Spring and Autumn Period, but Shi Bei's advice was famous for destroying relatives for the sake of justice.

Although he was short, he talked about many principles, such as family relationships, fathers love filial sons, but love is not pampering and spoiling, and the same is true for the monarch and ministers. The monarch is righteous and ministers act, and the monarch is cruel. The ministers will naturally not be loyal, but they are not favored by ministers, which is called obscurity, so the word "Yi" is used. The main thing is to say that since a filial piety is established, you cannot favor the monarch or the monarch. Of course, you can give another example. Li Shimin loved Li Tai but established Li Chengqian. Of course, it is Li Zhi who benefited, and that is not mentioned. This is enough to remind Li Zhi.

However, Li Zhi refused to listen, but immediately asked Lai Heng and Xue Yuanchao to be the third rank of the same as the Secretary of the Central Secretariat.

Hao Chujun wanted to give advice, but was stopped by Dai Zhide and said, "Grandpa Hao, Your Majesty has made up his mind, but the advice has not been achieved. In fact, it is not necessarily a bad thing to support King Yong."

Then he made an analysis obscurely, almost the same as what Di Renjie said. After saying that, he sighed and said, "It's a pity that the court has been in chaos since then."

It is conceivable that because of Li Zhi's entrustment, the ministers in the court would take sides in the future, including the ***, the Hou Party, the Yong Wang Party, and the neutral ones. If they wait and see, they would be in chaos. Since they stood up, the enemy would inevitably oppose it, and the enemy would inevitably support it. It is unlikely that the government would be as smooth as before.

"How could Your Majesty be like this..."

"He can't bear to bear it."

Not only Li Zhi, but Li Wei also thought that the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty can be said to be the most powerful person on the planet now. Tubo only relies on the dangers of the plateau, but the bitter and cold land cannot be regarded as a real powerful country. The food is a white-clothed caliph, and the royal power is constrained by the Byzantine royal power is also constrained by religion. The princes of the Frank Kingdom are united, and even a strong country cannot be considered a powerful country. The king is just a "lazy king". This laziness is not the country's laziness, but the king has no rights and can only do nothing in the palace.

Hao Chujun was speechless. At this point, although he was honest, he was not stupid. If he had any strong advice, the emperor could let himself retire. It is better to resign. It is conceivable that if the court did not have the support of others like him, the prince might let the emperor continue like this and be abolished.

Dai Zhide said again: "It's better to call Mr. Li, Mr. Zhang and others to complete the matter of the prince."

It refers to the matter of merchants going to sea. Once the two channels are opened, it will not only be beneficial to the country, but also to the prince's righteousness. But this requires a lot of money. The number of merchants further released will not only be the money obtained from the quota, the increase in trade volume, and the increase in the income of the sea market. This matter will not be handled this year, and by next year, the two channels will lack funds. If Li Xian has the ability to form a certain microclimate and do a work here, it will be a controversial matter, and it may not work.

Li Jingxuan naturally agreed that it had nothing to do with him, and it was because the Li family in Longxi who had asked someone to bring a message long ago. Several priests agreed, so they discussed with their ministers in the meeting hall. This time, few people opposed it. Since the order for banning merchants from going to sea, many people have written letters to oppose it, including some large families, and officials are also under great pressure. Some other officials have directly participated in the lobbying ranks.

Then he called Li Wei and asked for the quota.

Li Wei pondered for a moment and said, "After all, it's a merchant, and there are all kinds of unmeasurable risks, so there can be no more."

Everyone nodded and said yes, this is in line with the mainstream idea. Just put it aside, block everyone's mouth and get the two-channel fee.

"It's not missing either. After all, many people stood by and watched this time, and this time they were dissatisfied, thinking that what they did last time was unfair. In fact, I don't understand. The success of the two channels will benefit the country, facilitate the people, and make profits when going to sea. This is a two-way benefit. If you don't make efforts at this time, is it a so-called good deed written by the article, not by doing it?"

This sarcasm left everyone speechless.

"I think one hundred and twenty households are enough, and I clearly say that after this time, no one will be allowed to mention this matter in the future, nor will anyone let anyone go to sea without permission."

There were a little less, but the people went abroad and were merchants, so the ministers did not dare to argue.

But Li Wei's idea is that things are precious because they are rare. Besides, the direction of the wind is not very good now, and there are too many, so it is undoubtedly a lesson for people to talk about.

Li Jingxuan asked someone to draft the book, while Hao Chujun looked at Li Wei and said, "Prince..."

"Gong Gong Hao, I was the emperor of my father and asked you to move to the office, so I knew it before. My father was afraid of the rebellion of the ancestor emperor's Eastern Palace in the past, so I helped the prince to establish a clear East Palace very early. There are also advantages and disadvantages. The advantage is clear in the Eastern Palace, and there are fewer Fanqi. But those who are not good are there, I have several brothers, and I can't tell which one is better or worse. Those in the world are virtuous. This time, the emperor lets the second brother come out. If the second brother does a good job, I should give in to the virtuous. In fact, I also want to advise my father and let him take up a practical position, so that he can hone his talents, so that the country can gain a true virtuous monarch in the future."

This is what he said in the Yizheng Hall. In addition to the prime ministers, there are many ministers who were just impressed after hearing it...
