Chapter 32 Fighting for Power and Profit

Seeing that it was almost done, Li Ye was about to lift his legs and leave.

Unexpectedly, Cui Yin stood up.

When Li Ye saw this person, he felt like he had eaten a fly in his heart, but he couldn't do anything to him.

The Cui family in Qinghe has a long history than the Tang Dynasty. Since the Wei and Jin Dynasties, it has become a famous family. Although Li Ye has no good impression of them, he dare not offend them too much, let alone Zhu Wen standing behind him.

Killing all these open undercover agents will only make other undercover agents lurk deeper and more harmful.

Although Li Ye is the emperor, he must think about the consequences of every move, as if walking on thin ice.

Before Cui Yin could speak, Li Ye blocked his mouth first: "Cui Aiqing, let's forget about the invitation of King Liang. The court is still good at the moment. King Liang is busy, so don't bother him."

Cui Yin's face turned red and said embarrassedly: "Your Majesty misunderstood. This time I am not welcomed King Liang, but since the court has taken over the two states, it is necessary to send capable people to take charge. I am not talented and I recommend myself and I am willing to guard Tongguan for Your Majesty!"

Li Ye gulps of old blood surged into his throat again. Today, he asked you to go to Tongguan, and tomorrow you would unbutton your belt and let Zhu Wen drive straight in.

Why are they so shameless?

No wonder Zhaozong ended so miserably in history. Chengtian was surrounded by these things. How could he not be miserable?

Li Ye looked moved, "Cui Aiqing is loyal to the country. I think what I think and what I worry about. It is too insignificant to guard Tongguan. No, I must not be without a talent like Cui Aiqing around me. I want to promote Cui Aiqing to be the right minister of the Secretariat and work together with the polite affairs!"

The Zichen Palace suddenly became quiet.

Then one person shouted loudly: "Your Majesty, you can't. Cui Yin has no merits in the country, how can he be appointed as prime minister?"

Cui Zhaowei jumped out directly.

Han Quanhui also shouted: "Your Majesty, think twice."

The two of them are incompatible, but now they are wearing pairs of pants.

The Qin State unified the world and established a prime minister, which was used by each generation. However, at the end of the Han Dynasty, Cao Cao's instigation took over the power of the prime minister. Later, the dynasties were very cautious about the position of prime minister. In the Northern Zhou Dynasty, Yang Jian seized the position of grandson as prime minister and established the system of three provinces and six ministries. The prime minister became a historical term. The Tang Dynasty made innovations in the Sui Dynasty system and created a common sect and was called the prime minister by people at that time.

The Prime Minister takes over power alone, which poses certain threat to the imperial power.

However, the prime minister exercised part of the power of the prime minister, but many people were responsible for the position. Generally speaking, the chiefs of the three provinces added the same affairs, all the prime ministers, with most of them being five or six, and few as two or three.

If there are few people, the power will be greater. If there are many people, the power will be dispersed.

At present, the three prime ministers in the court, Prime Minister Han Quanhui, Second Prime Minister Cui Zhaowei, and Wei Zhaodu again.

After Wei Zhaodu lost the power of Xichuan, he basically became a transparent person.

The power in the court was controlled by Han Quanhui and Cui Zhaowei.

Neither of these two people are good at it. They are greedy for power, so how could Cui Zhaowei let him decentralize power?

Li Ye wanted them to concentrate on fighting and not get involved in their own affairs.

Soon, the court had a quarrel.

The three of them form cliques and all have their own camps.

Li Ye had long given up on the "loving ministers" in the court.

The edict has been issued, and it is their business to accept it, and Li Ye does not intend to take it back.

After watching the ugly behavior of your dear friends for a while, Li Ye went back to the palace to rest.

Knowing that the emperor was victorious on the front line, it was rare to be generous in the palace, with lights everywhere, and welcomed Emperor Li Ye back to the palace.

Li Ye was not a stingy person. He gave the only little gold and silver rewards in his hand. The palace people were extremely happy and thanked him repeatedly.

Since the Huang Chao Rebellion, the Tang Dynasty has been getting worse every day, and the palace maids have also got worse every day.

Li Ye went to see the queen first. The queen rarely wore new clothes and prepared a table of wine and food. When she saw Li Ye, her eyes were filled with water. Princess Pingyuan might have been sent away in advance and no one was seen.

How could Li Ye not know the queen's thoughts? Half a year has passed since this era, Li Ye has completely accepted his identity, regards Pingyuan as his daughter, and regards the queen as his wife. No matter what, they are all a family that is in the same boat through thick and thin, prospering and losing.

"Yingsu has suffered with me over the years." Li Ye said emotionally.

The Empress He family was born in a small family in Sichuan. During the Huang Chao Rebellion, Zhaozong followed his brother Xizong to avoid disaster in Shu and met the queen. Since then, they have fallen in love with each other and their relationship has always been very good.

Li Ye may be affected by the residual emotions in his body and has a good impression of this young and beautiful woman.

"What are your Majesty saying these words? We are one and our husband and wife. After many years of the Tang Dynasty, another emperor has emerged. I am so happy." Under the soft light, the queen became more and more beautiful.

There is a saying that if you don’t drink, everyone will get drunk, and if you are a beauty, Li Ye will drink too much without realizing it.

The consequence of drinking too much is that you can't control yourself.

The consequence of not being able to control oneself is that one can’t control himself.

When Li Ye woke up the next day, he still had a headache. He didn't know how to do this wine. He had a soft mouth, but his stamina was very strong, so he would have a headache every time.

The beauty around me is not here, leaving only the fragrance of the lotus quilt.

"Where is the Father? Where is the Father? The sun is burning her butt, and she can't get up." He knew it was from the plain after hearing the sound.

Li Ye quickly put on his clothes, coughed twice, pretending to be majestic, "Plain, don't be fooled."

Pingyuan looked at him with his head tilted and pouted, "What bad thing has the father done?"

Li Ye almost choked in one breath. The child was speechless, the listener was determined, and the guilty feeling of being a thief, Li Ye covered up his embarrassment with a loud laugh, "You are just a weird little girl."

Li Ye felt that he must have been a daughter slave in his previous life, otherwise he would not have been so close to Pingyuan.

Pingyuan didn't understand what a little girl was, and his little eyes were confused for a while.

The father and daughter played for a while, and Li Ye went to Tianxin Pavilion.

"Congratulations to Your Majesty for his victory, conquering China, and sharing the same two states." Zhao Chongning said this.

When this person met Li Ye, he always did not slander, and now he also compliments him.

However, his words did not point out the point, and the significance of subduing Tongguan was no less than that of China, and they were the same as those of the two states.

Only with Tongguan in hand can the two states become the strategic rear.

"Recently, Sun Dezhao and Sun Chenghui are actively running, and seem to be interested in becoming the governors of the two states!" Zhang Chengye said.

The governor's power is much more powerful than the prefect, and he is a reduced version of the governor who controls all the power in the territory and only sends taxes, money and grain to the court.

Han Wei snorted coldly: "The two states just fell into the hands of the court, and they were on the target."

Li Ye is not Zhaozong, nor Xizong. How could he share the fat that is so fat that he has to his mouth to others?

Zhang Chengye said: "It's a pity that Your Majesty is different now."

Li Ye smiled slightly. Sun Dezhao and Sun Chenghui were always a disaster, but now it is not the time to deal with them. The relationship between the two in the Shence Army was complicated. Li Ye didn't want to touch them yet. What we need to pay attention to is the Xingyuan battle between Li Maozhen and Wang Jian.

After this battle, Li Maozhen suffered the greatest losses and his strength was reduced.

Wang Xingyu had already turned against him. With him and Wang Jian in the north and south, Chang'an finally had no worries.

The question now is how to get greater benefits.

Li Maozhen held twenty-one states in his hand, and in terms of territory alone, he was one of the best among the vassal states in the world.

However, Guanzhong is broken and its population is not as good as the Kanto vassal states, and its level of wealth is even greater.

Even so, Li Maozhen is not something that Li Ye can shake at the moment.

I can only hope that Wang Jian and Wang Xingyu can continue to weaken Li Maozhen.

Although the strategy has slightly twists and turns, overall, it still met expectations and boosted Li Ye's confidence.

"How is the land inventory in Chang'an City?"

Zhao Chongning was responsible for this matter. "When you go back to Your Majesty, the population investigation has been completed. There are 98,000 households, 270,000 people in Chang'an, 210,000 elderly, weak women and children, and more than 68,400 young and strong people. Shen Ce Army does not count it."

It is very difficult to be so detailed.
