Chapter 476 It's really crazy!
A Shen Ling involves a treacherous story of the royal family of the Dakang Dynasty. Why did the prince of Emperor Yongshun die suddenly? Did Emperor Dashun play a certain role in this?
Although the compilation of historical events of the previous dynasties of "Dashun" and "Xinde" dynasties strongly emphasized one thing, that is, after the death of Emperor Yongshun, there were actually dozens of candidates who were qualified to take over as the emperor, and Emperor Dashun was not the most popular candidate.
In the end, the reason why Emperor Dashun was accepted by the royal family as the new emperor was mainly due to the loyalty, courage and diligence of Emperor Dashun. This explanation could not stop the faint mouth anyway. The four words "loyalty, courage and diligence" alone were too far-fetched.
First of all, the word "zhong" is fine, but what does the word "yong" mean? Before Emperor Dashun ascended the throne, he was just a prince who never won the throne in his life. According to the practice of the Dakang Dynasty, such a prince was idle all his life and could not hold any actual position. How did he get the word "zhong"?
As for the word "diligence" is even more nonsense. If you are diligent as the emperor, you will celebrate the whole world and the officials and the people will like it. However, Emperor Dashun was just an unemployed prince before. Why did he do diligently? Has he been eyeing his brother's country?
Originally, this matter was not impossible to be solved. The solution was to let old ministers like "Shen Ling" come forward to explain the truth of the matter.
Shen Ling was born as a prince's grand tutor and was the core figure in the prime minister's team trained by Emperor Yongshun for his son. If such a person stands up and proves that the death of the prince has nothing to do with "Dashun", then the ascension of the "Dashun" Emperor will undoubtedly be much smoother. Moreover, after Emperor Dashun ascended the throne, he will govern the world more easily and smoothly.
However, Shin Ling did not stand up, and Emperor Dashun even abandoned the Secretariat, which had existed since the founding of the Dakang Dynasty, and abolished the position of prime minister. Obviously, everyone would think of the violent conflict between Emperor Dashun and Shin Ling.
Shin Ling was a loyal minister, and Emperor Dashun was an ambitious man. Rumors of conspirators spread wildly. After two dynasties, such rumors did not weaken at all, but instead tended to become stronger!
Lu Zheng had a lot of thoughts and had a lot of imagination in his mind. From the pile of old papers he had spent, he could probably imagine the strange and bloody storms that "Shi Yan" had experienced in his life.
He would not believe in the empty words of harmony between the monarch and the ministers and the prosperity of the Dakang Dynasty. What he thought of was that the Dashun Dynasty, the Jiangnan power clan was completely plundered, and the four great masters were almost destroyed, but the four great masters left an empty shell. Why is this?
It is obvious that the means used by Emperor Dashun to plunder the four great masters of Jiangnan were bloody and cruel, but he did not pull out the four great masters of Jiangnan. The reason was definitely not the emperor's holy virtue. Lu Zheng seemed to have seen the shadow of Shen Ling behind such bloody disputes.
The "hidden prime minister" Shen Ling can survive for three dynasties and not die, which is definitely not the emperor's holy virtue, but the person Shi Ling must be extraordinary and always has a bargaining chip in his hand. How can a candidate for a prime minister who can be regarded by the talented and wise monarch of Kang Chao be an ordinary person?
Lu Zheng used to read these historical materials from the perspective of an onlooker, thinking that he was just a spectator. He never thought that he would have any intersection with a person like "Shen Ling" one day. However, now, he... has become a disciple of "Shen Ling" and inherited the mantle of "Shen Ling". My God, Lu Zheng really can't believe that all this is true!
To be honest, this is not what he wants. He inherited Shin Ling's mantle. Shin Ling buried so many nails in the court in Nanzhili, secretly trained so many dead soldiers, and top experts like Boys disguised themselves and worked hard for him.
Now all this is Lu Zheng. What do they want Lu Zheng to do? Lu Zheng's thoughts move slightly and he can't help but shivering. Rebellion these days is not a delicious meal.
Besides, Lu Zheng never thought that he would rebel one day, or that as a time traveler, he never thought that he had the ambition to dominate the world. Life is like a play, fighting for domination is too hard, too tiring, and too lonely. What's the fun of doing this in life?
Besides, the Dakang Dynasty at the moment seems to be full of holes and treacherous ministers are in power. In fact, the imperial court has control over the local area and the imperial court has very stable control over the people. Under such circumstances, if Lu Zheng wants to rebel, it is undoubtedly because he is unhappy. Is that really what he wants?
Lu Zheng did not talk much with Zhang Chengdong. Zhang Chengdong was able to tell Lu Zheng about such a thing. Obviously, he had made plans to die. Lu Zheng was grateful to him a little deeper, but in this situation, he was a clay Buddha crossing the river and could not give Zhang Chengdong any promises, so he simply said nothing. The words between men have always been taboo to be flashy and unreal. Lu Zheng came quickly and went in a hurry.
After leaving the Ministry of Justice to be sentenced, Lu Zheng didn't say anything. The boy was with him, but he was very nervous. The master and servant returned to the Lu family. After Lu Zheng returned home, he lay on the chair and closed his eyes to rest. Ying'er and Nie Xiaonu served him left and right. The boy did not dare to leave, and stood beside him with his eyebrows down.
The atmosphere gradually became solemn in such silence. After a while, Lu Zheng suddenly spoke: "I want to know everything. If you hide it from me, hehe, you should know my temper and style of conduct!"
"Young Master, you may have a misunderstanding, Prime Minister..."
"What are my misunderstandings? If you want me to die, don't do such concealment. How many things have I experienced from Yangzhou, from Jinling, from Beijing to the northwest? Others don't know, don't you know?
I have faced life and death countless times. It turns out that besides my own bad luck, there is a hand behind me pushing me away!
Hehe, I returned to the capital from the northwest. I originally thought I could be quiet for a few days! Unexpectedly, before the person entered the city, he bumped into His Royal Highness Qi outside the city!
Since the founding of the Great Kang Dynasty, there has never been a fifth-rank official who competed with the dignified prince. But this matter has fallen on me. I resigned from all my official positions and only wanted to study, but things did not meet my wish at all.
