Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 4055

Everyone knows that Wei Wang Li Tai is afraid of internal affairs. His highness has a fickle temper and eccentricity. He gets angry at every turn, and others can't persuade him at all.

But Li Tai never admits that this is "fear of internal affairs". He only thinks it is "respect".

Faced with the current situation that may be swept by the current situation, the method given by Princess Yan is to win over the officials of the East Palace. The important thing is to give the officials of the East Palace a promise, that is, to treat the prince and his children kindly, and never owe each other.

This time, Li Tai did not immediately adopt Wang Hao's suggestion, but hesitated to raise his own concerns: "If you rely on those people to become the crown prince and keep the crown prince, how do you know that you will not eat yourself back and raise a tiger?"

The concubine Yan raised her brows and scolded in a charming voice: "Your Highness is confused! Look who are the Donggong team? With Fang Jun as the leader, Li Daozong, Ma Zhou, and even Li Jing, who is greedy for power and the first mouse?" People at both ends? All upright people! The reason why these people are still protecting the crown prince until now is because they are worried that the new crown prince will be unfavorable to the crown prince in the future, and even harm the East Palace! As long as His Highness swears to promise, how can they be capricious, Just to chase fame, wealth and power? On the contrary, those who are vacillating and acting on the spot are eager to fight for power and position. There is no bottom line. When His Highness is going smoothly, they are vassals and flowers, but once His Highness encounters setbacks, who is willing to send charcoal in the snow? ?”

Yan Lide on the side also stroked his beard and said: "This statement is not bad. There is no right or wrong in the general situation of the government, but no matter when and where, you must occupy the righteous position and attribute yourself to the side of justice. What is righteousness and what is inverse ?If you get the right way, you will get more help, but if you are wronged, you will get little help. As long as the officials of the Eastern Palace belong to His Highness, everyone will think that you have received the crown prince's approval, and you are a legitimate party."

Only when the name is correct and the words are smooth, can we get twice the result with half the effort.

Li Tai was silent for a while.

For his own concubine, he admired her intelligence and wisdom, and for this father-in-law, he respected her very much.

Yan Lide was eager to learn since he was a child, and had outstanding attainments in many aspects such as architecture, calligraphy and painting, and craftsmanship. He entered the Qin Palace as a soldier and joined the army in his early years, and was one of His Majesty Li Er's early team members.Later, when His Majesty Li Er ascended the throne, Yan Lide was also promoted all the way, from Shangyi Yufeng to general master craftsman, and he presided over the construction of Emperor Gaozu's Xianling Mausoleum. His Majesty ordered him to be responsible for the construction of the Zhaoling Mausoleum, which has not yet been completed...

It can be said that although Yan Lide seldom participated in the government affairs, he was a veteran minister who had followed His Majesty Li Er for many years.

How could he underestimate the opinions of such a minister?

It's not that he doesn't agree with Wang Hao's words, but he knows Fang Jun and others' loyalty to the prince, and if he wants to instigate his rebellion into his own command, it's not just a promise.These people are indeed not the ones who love power and position and swing left and right, but each has their own political ambitions. It is the persistence of these people to preserve the Eastern Palace and prevent the inheritance of the imperial throne from being bloody.

How difficult it is to persuade them to give up the prince...

But he also agreed with the analysis of Wang Hao and Yue Zhang. If he could subdue the officials of the Eastern Palace for his own use at this time, his strength would increase dramatically, and his reserve position would almost be considered stable.

But where to start?

Yan Lide thought for a while, and said to Princess Yan: "I heard that although Fang Jun is the richest man in the world, and the Fang family is well-known, but his daily life is not extravagant, the only thing he likes... is that wife, sister, sister, and younger sister in the family. I'm already an adult, and I'm talking about getting married, so why don't I send her to Fang's family as a concubine?"

Due to the scandal between Fang Jun and Princess Changle, and the repeated setbacks in the marriages of Princess Jinyang, who is close to him, everyone in the Tang Dynasty now believes that Fang Jun is addicted to this. There were rumors that he and Fang Jun had a good night together, which made Chai Zhewei's rebellion not involve Chai Lingwu...

Even the daughter-in-law of the Helan family of the Wu family is said to be Fang Jun's confinement.

If you want to win over the officials of the Eastern Palace, the best way is to start with Fang Jun. With Fang Jun's status and prestige in the Eastern Palace, as long as he joins the King Wei's camp, he can easily disintegrate the Eastern Palace.And to win over Fang Jun, it is natural to do what he likes.

There is nothing to be done about wives and sisters, but most of those who are addicted to it have dirty minds. Although their own wives and sisters are likable, don't other people's wives and sisters have more taste?
We sent His Royal Highness King Wei's wife and sister to Fang Jun's bed, which is enough to show His Royal Highness Wei's sincerity, right?
Princess Yan's pretty face was flushed with embarrassment, she patted the table lightly with her slender hands, and said angrily, "What nonsense did the father say? If you behave like this, what will happen to your daughter? Instead of giving your sister to Fang Jun, why don't you give her sister to Fang Jun?" It would be better to send me there!"

Knowing that Fang Jun's obsession is his wife and sister, but sending the Yan family's youngest daughter away, what do people in the world think of her, Princess Wei?
Maybe there is someone with such dirty minds, who will wickedly make up the story that Princess Wei would not hesitate to commit herself to marry Fang Jun in order to win Fang Jun...

Yan Lide stroked his beard in embarrassment, he didn't dare to say more, but he cursed in his heart: Am I still thinking of you?The one I gave away was also my daughter, and I don't even feel sorry for it. You guys are still worrying about this and that, you really don't understand good people.Besides, your little sister, like all the ladies and young girls in Chang'an City, chanted Fang Jun's past poems, poems, and brilliant achievements all day long. Home as a concubine...

Li Tai shook his head to stop him: "Erlang and Changle do have an affair, but it is definitely not as rumored by the outside world. As for the rumor that Sizi and Fang Jun are having an affair in secret, it is even more unfounded. Fang Jun is informal, but he is magnificent. A gentleman is also a real man, it is absolutely impossible to be seduced by beauty. This king can only be moved with emotion and understand with reason, don't think about those crooked ways."

Yan Lide was speechless, saying that for your future, I was ready to date my little girl, but all I got was a crooked way?
That's right, take care of your own affairs, I can't do anything about it...

*****
In the early morning of the next day, His Majesty Li Er washed up after breakfast and went to the side hall to deal with official documents.

He asked Wang De to make a pot of tea, drank a cup, picked up a memorial from the mountain of official documents on the desk, opened it, and frowned.

It is Li Xiyu's memorial to beseech him to become an official...

Li Xiyu is an old man among the ministers of Zhenguan. Now he is still guarding Liangzhou in his seventies and eighties. And we should give a lot of kindness and rewards, and Yinmeng's son will become an official in the court to show respect and reward him for his meritorious service.

But if you become an official, you should be an official, and you want to belittle Wei Wang in the memorial, saying that "you are like Emperor Yang, not like a gentleman"...

Whether the King of Wei seems like a king or not should be decided by the emperor. When is it necessary for you, a frontier governor, to speak?
If this kind of thing was put in the past, His Majesty Li Er would probably laugh it off, and then go his own way and ignore it.

But now he thinks more...

Li Xiyu was born in the Guanlong Clan, but he was always incompatible with Guanlong Yixie. He and his brother Li Xizhi were both loyal to him, the emperor, and they could be described as a loyal and loyal person.The emperor could calmly choose to listen to or not to listen to such people's opinions, because no matter what, there would be no serious turmoil in the court.

But at the same time, at the time when the Guanlongmen Clan completely withdrew from the court after the defeat, there were not many Zhenguan honored ministers left. As the only remaining meritorious ministers, Li Xiyu's opinion was extremely important.

After all, even today, even though the younger generation headed by Fang Jun is gradually rising, there is no doubt that it is still those Zhenguan officials who support the foundation of the Tang Empire...

So, is Li Xiyu's memorial his own opinion, or did other ministers of Zhenguan Xun participate in it?

His Majesty Li Er put down the memorial, and didn't bother to drink tea, and began to check the memorial one by one, and sighed after a long time.The thing he was most worried about did not happen. Once all the ministers of Zhenguan rallied and opposed Wei Wang as the crown prince, he would be caught in a dilemma: if he chose Wei Wang, the court would be unstable and the political situation would be turbulent. There will be resistance from the officials, and there is bound to be a huge disturbance. With Wei Wang's arrogance and arrogance, he will bleed at every turn; if he doesn't choose Wei Wang... Isn't he coerced and persecuted by these ministers?

But there are also disturbing things. Chen Guanxun did not join Li Xiyu in boycotting King Wei. One by one, the king of Wei is described as a foolish person who is "conceited, arrogant, impetuous and tyrannical" and "straight than Jie Zhou and Li Yang"...

His Majesty Li Er looked at a large pile of memorials, and smiled angrily.

It is true that the King of Wei was impetuous and arrogant, but who were those "Jie Zhou Li Yang"?Single-handedly dismantling and collapsing the Nuo Empire, leaving behind an eternally infamous tyrant... He thinks highly of King Wei too much.

After sitting for a while after the book case, he ordered Wang De to go to the provincial government affairs hall under the door and call Xiao Yu over.

After half a cup of tea, Xiao Yu hurried over. After seeing the ceremony, His Majesty Li Er gave him a seat, pointed to a large stack of memorials on the table and said: "These are the memorials of the imperial historians impeaching the king of Wei. Song Guogong, come and see, how should we deal with it?"

Since you are known as the "Leader of Qingliu" and most of the censors are from your sect, then you can express your opinion... What do you want to do?
Xiao Yu remained calm as usual, got up and came to the table, leaned over to read the memorabilia.

At the end, he put down the last memorial, bowed and said: "Your Majesty is wise and mighty, so he naturally knows that some of these people are indeed from the heart, and some are far-fetched... How to deal with them is naturally up to His Majesty."

"Ho!"

His Majesty Li Er laughed angrily.

It's easy to say, but who speaks from the heart?And who is far-fetched?
Could it be possible for me to send the "Hundred Knights" to investigate these censors one by one?
This is forcing the palace.

But he didn't get angry, but was thinking: Is this just a simple boycott of King Wei, or have these people formed a faction with King Jin to advance and retreat together?
