Chapter 5 Chicken Feather in One Place
Li Ye recognized the oldest one as Prime Minister Liu Chongwang, and followed him were Du Rangneng, Cui Yin, Cui Zhaowei and others.
However, Li Ye has no impression of these people, as if they were not particularly famous in history.
I didn't care much.
"As the emperor, I have been humiliated so much, how can I see my ancestors and ancestors?" Li Ye continued to pretend.
"I have a saying that since Your Majesty is unwilling to be humiliated, you can ask for help from Bianliang. The King of Liang is loyal and will not let Your Majesty down." The person who spoke was Cui Yin.
Li Ye looked at him blankly. This person is currently just a servant, and he is different from Liu Chongwang and Du Rangneng. One is the Left Pushe of the Shangshu Province and the Right Attorney of the Menxia Province. Both have added Tongpingzhangshi, which means the Prime Minister. Since the Sui Dynasty, the Three Provinces and Six Ministry were established. The three provinces were divided into Menxia Province, the Secretariat and the Secretariat, and the Secretariat has the greatest power. Because the Shangshu Ling during the reign of Emperor Gaozu of Tang was Li Shimin, the Tang Dynasty was all vacant. In fact, the highest official was the Left Pushe of the Shangshu Province.
Cui Yin has always coveted the position of prime minister, which is not a secret in the court. Civil officials who do not want to be prime minister are not good undercover.
Any civil officials with some ambitions will collude with the vassal states to strengthen their voice in the court.
So he will rush to speak whenever he has the chance.
But at this moment, Li Ye's idea was to strangle him to death. He was tired of living, so he called Zhu Wen to serve the king.
Isn’t Cui Yin’s behavior like this just a copy of He Jin who invited Dong Zhuo to Beijing at the end of the Han Dynasty?
Compared to Zhu Wen, Dong Zhuo is really a kind person.
Of course, Zhu Wen was not called Zhu Wen at this time, but Zhu Quanzhong. This name was rewarded by his confused brother Emperor Xizong of Tang.
The biggest hobby of Emperor Li Tang was to give his surname and name, and to force others to recognize his ancestors. There was no big problem with doing this before the middle Tang Dynasty. However, in the late Tang Dynasty, for the sake of power, the vassal states did not use the real ancestors, let alone recognized them.
Seeing Li Ye staring at him blankly, Cui Yin had no sense of being able to see through his undercover identity. "Now, the only one who can save Your Majesty from trouble is the only one who can save Your Majesty from trouble! The others are all wolves and ambitions. I hope Your Majesty will accept the loyal advice of his ministers."
Li Ye resisted the urge to strangle him to death and looked around the loyal ministers, "What do you think?"
The superior should not express his feelings easily. This is what he learned from the insurance company boss, so that the people below can make trouble. Finally, he can clean up the mess. First, he can see the people's position clearly, and second, he will not offend others.
"I think it's not possible!" a man said in a sharp voice.
Looking in the sound, it was Han Quanhui, a lieutenant of the right Shence Army. The eunuchs were in charge of the Shence Army, which was also a characteristic of the late Tang Dynasty.
Han Quanhui is currently a real power figure in the Tang court. When he spoke, everyone could only recognize the ostrich.
"Oh? What good advice does General Han have?" Although Han Quanhui was a eunuch, eunuchs at the end of the Tang Dynasty could not offend a group of forces. Li Ye vaguely remembered that there were at least three Tang emperors killed by eunuchs.
Han Quanhui is a retainer of Li Ye and is in charge of the Shence Army, so he has a closer relationship with the emperor. "Cui Yin, do you want to harm Your Majesty and the Tang Dynasty?"
Cui Yin is at least twenty years older than Han Quanhui. He was pointed at the nose and called a "boy" and did not dare to refute it. His face was red and his ears were red, his neck shrank, and he bowed his hands repeatedly.
Han Quanhui glanced at everyone present with his small eyes, put his hands on his hips, and looked like a rooster in heat.
Of course, eunuchs would not be in heat, but his spirit was even more excited than in heat: "Why would you mislead Your Majesty if you talk about the prince of Longxi like this? The country of Tang Dynasty is in the hands of you literati."
Several ministers hummed haha, but no one dared to speak.
Han Quanhui enjoyed the embarrassment of the ministers who dared to be angry but not speak up, but no one talked back, and he couldn't make arguing alone. He turned to Li Ye and said, "Your Majesty, don't worry. In my opinion, the prince of Longxi has no other intentions. He is to clear the emperor and clean up these slanderous ministers who only know how to slander."
"Oh, it turns out that the prince of Longxi is also a loyal minister. It seems that I have misunderstood him." Li Ye's words were a little ridiculous.
Han Quanhui also heard a little bit of the ridicule in Li Ye's words, and his little eyes stared at Li Ye and turned around.
Seeing that no one was talking, Li Ye said, "Since the prince of Longxi has no other intentions, then General Han will go to comfort the Western Army."
A strange look flashed in the eyes of Du Rangneng, the minister, and he quickly retreated.
Han Quanhui's little eyes rolled faster, "Your Majesty, this is not very good..."
Li Ye did not give him a chance to shirk: "The prince of Longxi came from afar, and the court had to say that there would be General Han in this matter."
Han Quanhui is the spokesperson of Li Maozhen in the court. He sent him to Fengxiang army to explore Li Maozhen's background.
The emperor spoke, but Han Quanhui had to refuse to listen. Now that things have come to this point, he can only bite the bullet and accept this matter.
"Okay, thank you all for your hard work. That's all for today. Please come back first." After talking for so long, there were basically no useful suggestions. There was one that was a fatal suggestion. Even if Li Ye's mind was in trouble, he would not dare to invite Zhu Wen to serve the king.
The ministers surrendered one after another.
He is the only one left in Zichen Palace.
In fact, Li Maozhen's purpose here is very clear. He kidnapped Zhaozong and learned from Cao Cao to command the world with the emperor. However, Cao Cao could do this, and you, Li Maozhen, do not have the ability to do it.
Fengxiang can only be considered a second-rate force among the vassal states in the world. Even Yang Xingmi of Jianghuai is not as good as Yang Xingmi. There are King Liang Zhu Wen and King Jin Li Keyong in front of him. Can you watch Li Maozhen become Cao Cao?
Besides, the Tang court at this time had no appeal to the world.
Li Maozhen's move was completely a shooting himself in the foot.
As soon as he kidnapped Zhaozong, the fierce god Zhu Wen came. After a violent beating, Li Maozhen could only admit defeat and presented Zhaozong to Zhu Wen.
Fortunately, Li Ye still has 30,000 remnants of Shen Ce in his hands. He went out to play field battles with Li Maozhen, which was a humiliation for himself.
It shouldn't be difficult to guard Chang'an City, right?
Besides, Li Maozhen’s biggest inner supporter, Han Quanhui, was also driven out by himself, at least he didn’t have to worry about being cooperating with the inside and outside.
He also thought about killing Han Quanhui and taking over the military power of the Shen Ce Army.
The problem is that the eunuchs have become extraordinary. They have long been integrated with Tang Ting. It would be a fool to cut yourself into pieces.
When playing politics, the first thing is to figure out who is the enemy and who is your own person.
Han Quanhui is not his own person, but he is not his enemy at the moment.
He read an article in his previous life. In the late Tang Dynasty, it was actually a stable power triangle formed by vassal states, eunuchs, and emperors. No matter how powerful the eunuchs were, they were so arrogant and domineering that they killed the emperor, the newly established emperor was still the Li Tang royal family.
But when the feudal states are too big, they will be able to revolutionize the Li Tang Dynasty.
This is the essential difference.
The emperors of the late Tang Dynasty just didn't understand this, and they kept conflicting with the eunuch group and weakened each other, which eventually led to the complete loss of control of the vassal states and ruined the Tang Dynasty.
Of course, there are many reasons for the demise of the Tang Dynasty. The eunuch group is not a thing, the last few emperors of the Tang Dynasty were not good things, and even more so, the feudal towns were not good things.
The political structure of the late Tang Dynasty was to show the lower limit, and compare who is worse, and everyone will continue to rot together.
The result is that the rage from the bottom burns everything.
The Huang Chao Uprising was all over, the emperor, eunuchs, and the vassal states were all over.
On the surface, the vassal states benefited, but in fact, they were Huang Chao rebels like Zhu Wen, Li Keyong and other tribes who moved inwardly, as well as foreign tribes such as Khitan, Dangxiang, Nanzhao, and Uighurs.
The most injured are the ancient people living on this land.
"Your Majesty, Mr. Du asked for a visit." Liu Quanli's report outside the hall interrupted Li Ye's thoughts.
Du Rangneng? What did he do?
"Old me, pay homage to Your Majesty!" Unlike the three kneelings and nine bows in later generations, Du Rangneng just bowed and gave a cross-handed salute.
"My husband is exempt from gifts, come and have tea." Although the soul travels through Zhaozong's body, Zhaozong still has some memories.
"I heard yesterday that Your Majesty was sick, but I don't know what it is today?" Du Rang could speak as gentle and polite as his, but without a sense of hypocrisy.
Of course, Li Ye knew that Du Rang could come back to see him, and he was definitely not talking nonsense. He couldn't help but start a maneuver: "The minor illness has been cured, but it is difficult to get rid of the serious illness."
Du Rang was naturally not a general person. He knew the elegant meaning when he heard the song: "I heard that the illness came like a mountain falling, and the illness was like a thread being drawn, but I don't know if Your Majesty was using strong medicine or warming up?"
The direction of this statement is very clear, Li Ye knew it in his heart, but the Tang Dynasty is currently in its dying state and is already in dying. The biggest possibility of a powerful medicine is to directly take the life of the Tang Dynasty. It is not time for me to warm up, and it cannot solve the predicament of the Tang Dynasty. When Zhaozong was in power, all efforts could be regarded as warm up, but all attempts failed.
Only find another way.
But Li Ye didn't have a clue in his mind how to find another way.
"Body medicine and warm nourishment can cure symptoms but not root causes." Li Ye told the truth.
Du Rangneng suddenly looked straight at Li Ye, "Why don't your majesty remove the firewood from the bottom of the pot?"
Li Ye was shocked, yes, the firewood was removed from the bottom of the pot!
The Tang Dynasty has come to an end, and all traditional methods have failed since the time of Emperor Suzong Xianzong.
If you want the Tang Dynasty to regain vitality, you can only fundamentally change all this! Reshape the muscles and bones of the Tang Dynasty!
Only souls like myself who have traveled from the 21st century have the courage, determination and insight to do this. No ancient person could have such a pattern.
This is also the only place where he was ahead of the ancients.
But after a change of thought, I couldn't help but think about it carefully.
Li Ye never underestimated the thoughts of the ancients, but as a Tang Dynasty man, how could Du Rangneng have such an idea that transcends the limitations of the times?
Is he a time traveler too?
Or he just made a mistake, didn't that mean? He was thinking too much?
Seeing a faint glow in Du Rangneng's turbid eyes, Li Ye suddenly realized that he was not a mistake, nor a modern person.
It's very simple. The temperament of modern people is definitely different from that of ancient people. Even if Du Rangneng is the Oscar winner, he cannot play the innate temperament of Tang people.
