Chapter 224 just around the corner

Chapter 224: Being ready to move

"I will publish my "Sinful Edict" and Yao Chong's appointment as the Secretary of the Central Secretariat immediately." Ruizong decided to finalize his foot. Even if someone opposes Yao Chong's reign, there is nothing to say.

Princess Taiping originally wanted to wait until today before putting pressure on Ruizong, but she didn't expect that Ruizong was smart and decided first. She couldn't help but feel a secret hatred in her heart, but on the surface she looked like an ancient well was in a state of turmoil.

Ruizong's purpose of power has been achieved, so he issued an order to ask the ministers to retreat and rest, and give him another banquet in the evening. As soon as he left the palace, he saw the common people running around and telling each other, spreading the great news of Yao Chong's revival. Chen Wanrong saw it and sighed: "Yao Chong Zhenrenjie is the same! As soon as the news of his revival spread, the common people were so happy as the New Year! What are the regrets about life like this?"

Yao Chong is a well-known name in Chinese history. Sima Guang commented that he was "Yao and Song have been prime ministers one after another, Chong is good at responding to the law and upholding justice. The two have different ambitions and morals, but they are in concert with each other, so they can help the taxes and servitudes, the criminal law is clear and the people are prosperous. The wise prime minister of the Tang Dynasty was called Fang Du and Yao Song later, and no one can compare to others!"

The "Ten Miscellaneous" he proposed has far-reaching influence. He was the driving force of the famous "Kaiyuan Prosperity", pushing Chinese history to an unprecedented height.

However, what is unexpected is that Yao Chong is actually a latecomer.

Yao Chong was born in a family of military generals. When he was twenty years old, his father Yao Yi died of illness. He moved to his grandmother's house, Guangchengze, Ruzhou, to live in Guangchengze, Ruzhou. This residence lasted for more than twenty years. Guangchengze is a famous scenic spot. The Eastern Han Dynasty once devised this place as a palace for hunting. The people here valued martial arts.

After coming to Guangchengze, Yao Chong hunted and practiced martial arts, developed good skills, was very skilled in martial arts, and was proficient in a variety of weapons.

Later, Zhang Jingzang, a scholar who was well-educated, passed by Guangchengze and rested at Yao Chong's house. Zhang Jingzang found that Yao Chong was so majestic that others did not have, which was far beyond the reach of others. He was very surprised. When he talked to Yao Chong, he found that he was not well-versed in literature and science and lacked knowledge. Zhang Jingzang was a good boy. Not only did he look down on Yao Chong, he also encouraged Yao Chong to study more and increase his knowledge: "Guangcheng was the place where Guangchengzi, an ancient sage, lived. Huangdi once asked Guangchengzi. You should be famous for your literary talent. It is very likely that you should be a high-ranking official like the prime minister. You should work hard and not give up on yourself!"

This year, Yao Chong is already forty years old!

A person in his forties is still not good at literature, and if others are not good at writing, they will definitely take Zhang Jingzang's words as a sign of wind. Surprisingly, Yao Chong actually accepted Zhang Jingzang's advice and started studying. He studied hard, devoted himself to literature, made great progress in his studies, passed the imperial examination, and became an official in the court.

The first thing Yao Chong did when he entered the court was to be responsible for the criminal prison. He was fair in his work and thorough in his analysis. Many unjust prisons were corrected because of him, and the court and the people looked at him sideways. When he was forty-eight years old, Wu Zetian promoted him to the Shangshu in an extraordinary way.

A mountain villager who is not knowledgeable in literature completed his studies in just eight years. He gained a reputation with his talents and became a minister of the Shang Dynasty. How difficult it is to be!

This is Yao Chong!

It can be said to be a legend!

Since then, Yao Chong was famous all over the world and the people have praised him. However, he offended Wu Zetian and was demoted. Before he left his post, he introduced Zhang Jianzhi to Wu Zetian.

Who is Zhang Jianzhi? He is the one who forced Wu Zetian to abdicate! Without Yao Chong's recommendation, it would be difficult for Zhang Jianzhi to become prime minister, and it would be impossible for him to abdicate.

When the big event was taken, Yao Chong was in Chang'an and also participated in this matter, so Wu Zetian had no choice but to pass the throne to the crown prince Li Xian. Zhongzong originally wanted to call Yao Chong the prime minister, but Yao Chong saw that the Wu family was in great power and asked Zhongzong to eliminate the Wu family's power. Zhongzong did not adopt it, so Yao Chong did not accept the prime minister and was released as the governor.

Later, a series of power and tricks occurred, including Wu Sansi and Empress Wei, Zhang Jianzhi was killed, and the prince killed Wu Sansi and other things. Until Ruizong was restored, because Yao Chong had been the chief minister of Ruizong's mansion, the relationship between the two was different, Ruizong appointed him as prime minister. He suggested that Ruizong put Princess Taiping in Luoyang to prevent her from interfering in the government. Ruizong had to rely on Princess Taiping at that time, but did not adopt it.

Princess Taiping revenges on Yao Chong, and Yao Chong was demoted to another place to serve as governor.

According to the historical progress, Yao Chongfu probably happened after Emperor Xuanzong of Tang killed Princess Taiping. At that time, Emperor Xuanzong of Tang mobilized 200,000 troops to hold a grand military parade in Mount Li, showing that he wanted to rebuild his old career during Emperor Taizong of Tang and his determination to conquer the four barbarians.

Unfortunately, the army was in chaos and the army was not in order. Emperor Xuanzong of Tang was furious and just gave Guo Yuanzhen, the Minister of War who was in charge of the military parade. Emperor Xuanzong of Tang remembered Yao Chong and summoned him. When Yao Chong arrived, Emperor Xuanzong of Tang was hunting. Emperor Xuanzong of Tang asked him if he would hunt.

Yao Chong learned to hunt since he was a child, but there was no way he could do it. He commanded the soldiers to gallop and call the eagle and release the dog, which was very popular with Emperor Xuanzong of Tang. Emperor Xuanzong of Tang said that you can be my prime minister. Yao Chong said that he could be the prime minister, but he had to promise him ten things, which was the famous "Ten Commentaries on Yao Chong". From then on, the Kaiyuan prosperous era officially began.

Liu Bei visited Zhuge Liang three times and had a chat with Zhuge Liang. Zhuge Liang planned the major plan and then came the later "Three Three", which is the very famous "Longzhong Pair".

Yao Chong and Li Longji's answers are not as famous as "Longzhong Pair".

However, the impact on Chinese history is unparalleled, because it created the "Kaiyuan Prosperity" that can only be compared with the "Han and Wu prosperous era", and China's influence has developed to the extreme. Even in the Middle East, they also knew that there was a Tang Dynasty in China, but they did not know other dynasties.

This has a lot to do with the Kaiyuan prosperous era and is closely linked to Yao Chong!

This is a major event in Chinese history and has a profound impact. Because Ruizong's spirit has soared, he wants to be a great and capable king, but he does what Li Longji should have done.

When Chen Wanrong thought of this, he felt a little unbelievable, and thought to himself: "Will he abdicate by the Ruizong so aggressively? When will the more wise Li Longji ascend the throne?"

Yao Chong, the famous prime minister of the Kaiyuan Prosperity, officially took the stage of history, but Li Longji, the monarch of the Kaiyuan Prosperity, did not ascend the throne. Can this still be called the Kaiyuan Prosperity?

"By the way! Princess Taiping is the most opposed to Yao Chongfu Xiang. She dare not say it today. After today, she must have made some moves. How would she react?" Chen Wanrong was very curious.

"Mom, what's wrong with you? Your face looks so ugly! Are you sick?" Wu Chongxun said to Princess Taiping in panic.

"Xun'er, don't talk nonsense, mom is not sick!" Princess Taiping sat down angrily: "I'm so angry! I'm so angry!"

"Mom, what's going on?" Wu Chongxun carefully held the tea with his own hands.

Princess Taiping took it and drank it all over. This was a cow drink. She would never have done this before. Wu Chongxun knew that things were not small today, which made her angry.

Sure enough, Taiping used his master's right hand to pat the table: "Yao Chong is back!"

"Mom, let's get back to prime minister! Yao Chong is very talented. Didn't he hate him on the surface and admire him secretly?" Wu Chongxun joked: "Didn't he already plan to let him be the prime minister in the future?"

"Shut up!" Princess Taiping shouted: "Yao Chong is back to the court, but I will not object, but you have to let your mother do it, not your fifth uncle! If you want him to return to the court, then he is my mother's person and do things for the court! Now, if he returns to the court, he will attack my mother. In just one day, Yao Chong has great power, surpassing any prime minister in the Tang Dynasty!"

Wu Chongxun was a little confused, so he said: "Mom, where do you start?"

Princess Taiping glanced at him and tried to calm her tone: "Yao Chong made ten memorials to the emperor, and everything hit the nail on the head. It can be said that it is very insightful! It is indeed an urgent task in front of you, and it is worthy of being Yao Chong!"

Although she opposed Yao Chongfu's incident, she admired Yao Chong's talent very much. She was angry and never forgot to praise her. Next, she would talk about Yao Chong's ten memorials.

Wu Chongxun nodded and said, "For many years, I haven't heard such a deafening voice! Well said! Yao Chong is worthy of being Yao Chong!"

Princess Taiping frowned and said, "It's good, it's too bad for my mother! He wants to restrict the interference of royal relatives in politics, and my mother is the first to bear the brunt!"

Princess Taiping, the most powerful person in the royal family, is Princess Taiping. Yao Chong's article has hit her the biggest blow, how can she not be anxious? Princess Taiping admires this article very much, but she has to object to her great cause.

Interest determines position! Not rational!

"This..." Wu Chongxun also knew how powerful this one was, and couldn't help but feel a little stupid.

Princess Taiping continued, "Also, he wants to sanction the court and investigate the illegal affairs of the officials. This is true in itself, but Mom hopes that he will make some rectifications. But which one of Dou Huaizhen and Xiao Zhizhong has clean hands and feet? Which one has no shit in his butt? If something happens to them, who will I rely on in the future?"

To ride a horse, you also need a horse-mounted stone! To be an emperor, you need a stepping stone.

She was not so satisfied with Dou Huaizhen, Xiao Zhizhong and the others, and Princess Taiping. However, when Yao Chong and Zhang said that Song Jing and other capable ministers who were outstanding in their ability did not attach to her, she could only settle for the second best and rely on Xiao Zhizhong and the others.

These people who believe they are Princess Taiping do a lot of bad things. Princess Taiping doesn't like these things, but now they need them, so they can only let them go. If Yao Chong beat them up, Princess Taiping will be powerless.

As for how she treats Dou Huaizhen and the others after she ascended the throne, that is another matter.

You know, the phoenix without wings cannot fly above the sky!

Yao Chong held the Emperor's Sword in his hand, and he was in power and sharpened his knife. How could she not be anxious?

"Mom, you should argue with reason!" Wu Chongxun also understood how much pressure Yao Chongfu was against Princess Taiping. It was a mountain that Princess Taiping could hardly stop it.

"Strike? Do you think my mother doesn't want it?" Princess Taiping shook her head and said, "Your fifth uncle gave everyone a "Sinner Edict" to seal everyone's mouth! If my mother fights today, it will be the target of public criticism. Don't talk about others. At that time, it will be a problem whether Dou Huaizhen and others will support her."

Interests are the most fundamental. If Princess Taiping fights hard, it will inevitably lead to indignation among the ministers. At that time, the crowd will be in great danger. With the help of generals like Guo Qianguan and others, no one can tell whether Ruizong will clean up.

Princess Taiping, the minister in the court, believes that no one will turn to Ruizong. However, the soldiers who returned to the court today definitely support Ruizong. Because, once Ruizong's grace was reduced, their support for Ruizong had reached an unparalleled level.

If these soldiers get angry and start to make trouble, Princess Taiping's power will be destroyed in a very short time. This is the reason why Princess Taiping has to bear it.

Ruizong's actions were extremely meticulous and he had planned every step. First, he gave a grace order and won the hearts of the soldiers; then issued a "Sin of Sin", which not only blocked people's mouths and won the support of court officials; then announced that Yao Chong was reborn.

No matter how great the resistance he had, it would disappear! Princess Taiping would not dare to hit the knife even if she had ten more courage!

"Hey! How great it would be if there was a general with heavy troops to help him!" Princess Taiping sighed that life was not easy without military power: "If you want to compete with Guo Qianguan, the only military general in the court is Chen Wanrong. Although his army was short-lived, the Tubo battle made him famous all over the world and was a hero in the eyes of the soldiers! But he didn't follow me. It doesn't matter, at least he didn't oppose me, not as clear as Yao Chong and others. Well, I have to find a good opportunity to have a good talk with Chen Wanrong."

If there was a person like Chen Wanrong among the generals today, she could strive to do it without saying a word.

Princess Taiping couldn't stop thinking, and then thought: "Fifth brother had planned it a long time ago today, and he came to me! He calculated every step accurately, he was really good at thinking. When did he have such meticulous thoughts?"

In her eyes, Ruizong was a good person, a good brother, a good father, and a good emperor. Even his restoration was due to Princess Taiping and Li Longji. In the last year's killing of Princess Anle and Empress Wei, he did not do anything and did not know about it in advance.

It was not until after the killing was successful and he was asked to restore the throne that he knew. Ruizong at that time was so surprised that his eyes almost hit the ground. He was stunned for a while before he believed it was true.

But today's Ruizong is different from last year. He is smart, wise, scheming, and decisive and decisive. All actions are linked together and extremely meticulous, which makes people dazzling. When Princess Taiping understands, it is too late, and the matter of Yao Chongfu is unchanged.

This is so surprising!

Ruizong is actually a shrewd man. He has no achievements in history, but he is known as the word "rui". The reason is that he is very smart. When Wu Zetian was in power, he could actually live well. This way of self-protection alone makes people sigh.

The Ruizong in history had no ambitions, so he could live without it. Perhaps it was because he had thoroughly understood the worldly feelings. Now, Ruizong has been cheering up and wants to be a great and promising king, so his methods have come out.

Princess Taiping thought angrily: "Fifth Brother, this is your unkindness, it is not your little sister who is unrighteous, it is you who forced me! Don't blame me!"

If Ruizong wants to be a great and promising king, he must use talents. He does not use Yao Chong, who else can he use? However, Yao Chongfu's threat to Princess Taiping was too great, which made her restless and had to fight back.

Family affection will be diluted in the face of interests! Wu Zetian is a living example. In order to be the emperor, she did not hesitate to strangle her flesh and poison her son Li Xian.

Princess Taiping has the tendency to be a mother. Once she is determined to fight back, she must use thundering methods: "Xun'er, you can pick a batch of high-quality jewelry, and then choose a few women who are good at singing and dancing in the mansion to send them to Dou Huaizhen's mansion. By the way, let Ru Yun follow her, and she will be wronged!"

"Ru Yun is going too? Mom, are you willing to give up?" Wu Chongxun was very surprised.

Ru Yun is good at singing and dancing. Princess Taiping raised her since she was a child and valued her very much, just like her biological daughter. Ru Yun is the flesh of Princess Taiping, and she actually wants to send her to Dou Mansion. Wu Chongxun really couldn't believe it.

Princess Taiping was also reluctant to let it go, but for the sake of great cause, she had to bear the pain of giving up and was silent for a moment: "Send it to Dou Huaizhen, just don't blame her."

Wu Chongxun was a little convinced and answered with a word.

In a house, a wailing wailing man was urging a flowery woman, turning the clouds and raining, showing off her majesty, and the woman in her arms had become soft and mud.

"Master, your kung fu has improved again! The full meal in broad daylight!" Dou Huaizhen came in with a smile.

He and Yun Xiang are brothers on the bed. Yun Xiang said that he had the skills of controlling women, so he didn't need to avoid suspicion. He came in as soon as he wanted to come in. He looked at the woman in Yun Xiang's arms very angrily and commented: "Master, this is the thirteenth? Are you not having enough fun yet? It's amazing!" His thumb was raised to the sky.

"You go out first!" Yun Xiang let go of the naked woman in his arms, jumped out of bed, grabbed a piece of high-quality silk, put on his clothes, and asked, "Sir Dou, what's the matter with me?"

Dou Huaizhen pretended to be mysterious: "Master, guess."

"Sir, I know. I don't like to guess riddles, I just say something." Yun Xiang is not that easy to talk to.

Dou Huaizhen smiled and said, "Master, when Dou came in, he saw twelve flowers-like women very tired. They are masterpieces of the masters, right? Master, if these women are unable to bear the trouble and you have not had enough fun, what should you do?"

"I am lustful, not a stingy person. If I can't enjoy it and they can't stand it, I will endure it!" Yun Xiang is very sensible in bed affairs, and is proficient in kung fu, so he can't help it.

Dou Huaizhen kept shook his hand and said, "No need, no need! The princess has brought you a few good goods, all of which are good in color and art, so the master can enjoy it."

"Oh! Princess is here to urge me to do it?" Yun Xiang saw through Princess Taiping's intention at a glance. Princess Taiping only gave things and did not speak. After thinking about it, he understood: "I am so nice to you, should you do something?"

Dou Huaizhen nodded and said, "Master, please say, this is what the princess means! The princess even brought her favorite girl Ru Yun to you. Master, it depends on you!"

"The princess treats me like this, only success is allowed, not failure!" Yun Xiang asked very easily: "Will I, Yun Xiang, fail in doing things? I will not see the red ones, and I will not be able to assassinate you, even gods, don't even think about finding out. Lord Dou, what's the matter I want you to prepare?"

Dou Huaizhen frowned and said, "Fresh dates are still looking for them. I have found out the one who delivered seafood. There is no problem, and I have been innocent for generations."

"Innocence?" Yun Xiang said disdainfully: "Innocence is useless to me." His mouth attached to Dou Huaizhen's ear and muttered for a while.
