The side hall where the false emperor Li Mi was imprisoned is quite remote.
Once the door was closed, only a ray of light came in from the crack of the door, giving the dark hall more life.
If a person stays in a place like this for a long time, he will really go crazy.
Li Mi thought about his life countless times, and after thinking about it, he would think about it again. If he found something he had done wrong, he would regret it. If he found something he had done beautifully, he could not help but be happy.
"That bastard! If I had known about it back then, I would have definitely killed him!"
Li Mi gritted his teeth in the darkness.
"It's Han Shitou, yes, that dog thief. Now that I think about it, he was the one covering up for that evil bastard, otherwise I would have noticed it long ago."
"In the final analysis, it's still my uncle. You didn't stop even after you died, and you even deployed manpower around me. Unfortunately, you realized it too late."
"To be honest, I have never seen such stupid people. You knew that those people were so powerful that the emperor had no choice but to compromise, but you dared to stir up a hornet's nest. How could those people be so kind? As a result, you died, and those powerful people
It still exists.”
"You are stupid, and your son is also stupid. Don't look at him being proud at the moment. But in the thousands of years of history, those families have experienced countless hardships. As long as they are not killed, they can still rise again. The iron-clad aristocratic family,
What a flowing dynasty! Hahahaha!"
"Let's do it! The more enthusiastic you are, the better. I will watch you tossing with them. There are people from them everywhere in the officialdom. The more you toss, the more they will stick together."
"They have lost their land and population, which may seem like a bad thing, but it has the advantage of being able to focus all their energy on the imperial examination. Those who come from well-educated families, and once they work hard, will be able to pass the imperial examination in all likelihood.
He is their son. Ten or twenty years later...that scoundrel will become a loner. Hahahaha!"
Li Mi heard the footsteps and rushed behind the crack of the door on both hands and feet. He squinted and looked out from the crack of the door.
A chamberlain walked outside the door and said loudly: "Yesterday's imperial examination, your Majesty proposed a question based on the new learning, and the list of the big tribes of the rich and powerful children."
After saying that, the waiter left.
Li Mi pulled at the crack of the door with both hands and dug hard, shouting: "How dare he? How dare he?"
He shouted at the top of his lungs inside.
I dug my fingernails on both hands unconsciously.
The sound of footsteps came again, and Li Mi gasped, closing one eye and looking out from behind the crack of the door with the other eye.
"Look, look who I saw? The head of state? Hahahaha!"
The two chamberlains opened the door to the side hall, and Li Mi covered his eyes with his hands and stepped back.
"Get in!"
Yang Songcheng was driven in, and immediately the door was closed.
The hall fell into darkness again.
Yang Songcheng still maintained the dignity of the head of the Yang family. He sat on the edge of the bed and listened to someone faintly behind him saying: "Are you here?"
"right!"
"If you hadn't taken the lead to restrain me in those years, why would the overall situation be like this?"
"If you hadn't always wanted to suppress my family, why would I do this?"
"You are obviously very ambitious! Old dog!"
"The aristocratic family has existed for thousands of years, not because of ambition, but because of the sense of propriety. If you weren't so aggressive, why would I be able to compete with you?"
"When I was preparing to take action against Northern Xinjiang, it was you, an old dog, who tried so hard to persuade me... to put the overall situation first."
"Could you have defeated that evil bastard at that time?"
"At least we can suppress him!"
"That scoundrel was able to destroy Bei Liao, which shows that he has been planning for a long time. I am afraid that your methods are all part of his plan. Don't forget, his ability to use troops cannot even be matched by your flattery!"
"If you can play with other things, I can let him..."
"I just heard that you passed the imperial examination?"
"Yes." Li Mi suddenly gloated: "Nearly all the powerful children of the rich family were wiped out."
"Um?!"
Yang Songcheng suddenly turned around, and in the darkness, he saw Li Mi sitting cross-legged behind him, with gloomy eyes.
"Why?"
"That scoundrel changed the title and used the same set of theories he promoted in northern Xinjiang. What about astronomy and geography, what nonsense power..."
Yang Songcheng suddenly laughed miserably and said: "Cleaning up the population is just an introduction. The purpose is to make our family no longer have the ability to rebel. Then, he will cut the flesh of our family with one knife. That thief!"
"The thousand-year-old Yang family is about to be destroyed in your hands. Do you feel sorry for me, Zhang?"
"Old dog, look at you, you were once an emperor, but now you are not as good as a dog."
"You're no better!"
"I have tolerated you for many years! To be honest, I never thought about rebellion in the beginning, but every time I see you sitting on the throne, I am thinking that someone as inferior to a beast like you can still be an emperor.
Then why can't I? Why can't Yang?"
"You really want to rebel!"
"Yang has been a family member for thousands of years and is tired of it!"
There was silence in the palace.
After a long time, Li Mi said: "Is there still a chance to repeat it?"
“If you don’t have people in your hands, where will the opportunity come from?”
"What about the officials? There are countless officials that your family can directly and indirectly influence. If not, I would have taken action back then."
"Now, it depends on the courage of Dalang and the others."
"You don't seem optimistic in what you say?"
"The Chunyu family is finished."
"That must be because of the events of that year!"
"None of us can escape retribution." Yang Songcheng said desolately: "If Da Lang is smart, he will either contact those wealthy families and everyone will take action together to defeat the enemy. Or, he will escape without hesitation and go overseas, to Luoluo...
"
"Lolo, hahahaha!"
Li Mi laughed proudly.
Yang Songcheng sighed: "That evil scum clearly wants to be eradicated, Da Lang, don't hesitate!"
…
"...Yang Songcheng said not to hesitate."
After saying this, the chamberlain took his leave.
The emperor was thoughtful.
The prince said: "Ah Ye, Yang Song told Chengdu what happened back then. It can be seen that A Weng's death is related to his family."
"Of course it is related, but A Liang, you have to remember that while the emperor holds supreme power, he must also be careful about abusing his power. Once the emperor treats the law as nothing and enforces the law, the officials below will trample on the law.
.So even though my father can have the Yang family destroyed right now, I still endure it."
"yes!"
Later the prince took his leave, followed by his two beloved pets, who were playing and playing all the way.
The emperor watched him go out and said with a smile: "Actually, I can destroy the Yang family right now. But the doubts in my heart cannot be solved, so I keep them."
Han Shitou said: "It will be easy for Your Majesty to find out the Yang family."
"But I need to set some rules for Ah Liang, otherwise, I'm worried that he won't be able to control them."
…
"The emperor is killing people with a soft knife!"
Yang Xinxiang was not as indecisive as Yang Songcheng thought. After the results of the imperial examination came out, he sent people to various wealthy families to spread the word.
He is waiting for responses from all parties.
In the study, there is dim candlelight, and in the corner, there are birds smoking from the incense burner.
Yang Xinxiang stretched out his hand to rub his eyebrows and said to Sun Yan, who was sitting opposite him: "He will weaken us step by step, but I don't understand why he doesn't take action?"
The Yang family has been enviable for thousands of years, but there is filth inside. If the emperor wants to take action, Yang Xinxiang will not think that he will not find a reason.
"I thought he was waiting for an opportunity."
"What time?"
"The Chunyu family had ambushed that evil bastard, and that evil bastard destroyed the Chunyu family. Who in the world dared to say anything about it? But he stayed..."
"Evidence!" Yang Xinxiang's expression changed slightly.
"Yes. That scoundrel wants to uncover the secrets of the past and rehabilitate the filial emperor. In his eyes... our family is all withered bones in the grave, and he can do it at any time."
"He is pressing on step by step, and we can only wait in despair for that moment to come!"
"Yes, he is torturing me!"
Yang Xinxiang took a deep breath and said, "We can't sit still and wait for death."
"Let's see how those families respond. If they are all willing...then we will fight to the death!"
"Where is Yuandu?" Yang Xinxiang narrowed his eyes, "As early as two years ago, I had people do something."
"South?"
"No, west."
"Lolo."
"Luoluo is a big country, and it has always had ambitions for the Tang Dynasty. However, it is in chaos internally and cannot work together, so it just allows the barbarians to invade the western border. There is a thirst for the craftsmen of the Tang Dynasty there. In addition, there is also a map of the Tang Dynasty.
…”
Yang Xinxiang sneered and said: "The Yang family has been inherited for thousands of years. I dare say that the maps in the palace are not as accurate as those at home. Luo Luo will definitely be overjoyed to get this weapon..."
"Lang Jun is wise!"
"As long as the beacon fires start, I want to see how that evil bastard is doing!" Yang Xinxiang lowered his voice, "The west is a blinding trick, and I can't hide that evil bastard. What I really want to go to is the north."
"To the north is the place where the evil dragon thrives."
"There is a word called darkness under the lamp!"
…
"Someone once talked to his father about his family and his country, but in the eyes of aristocratic families, the so-called world is their own hunting ground. The people are like ants, and the army is like domestic slaves... In their eyes, the world is just a plaything!"
The night in the palace was quite quiet, and the emperor and the prince stood outside the palace.
"Aye, when I read history books, I often see those meat-eaters disregarding the overall situation for the sake of power. This is putting self-interest above the country..."
"People's hearts tend to be profitable, but human nature is inherently evil." The emperor said: "If we want to curb this trend, we must praise those selfless ministers and severely punish those corrupt and mediocre officials."
"yes!"
"What do you think of the current officialdom?"
The prince thought for a while and said, "It's their world."
"Yes! So my next step is to break this situation!"
Concubine Li is here.
"Your Majesty, Yi Niang found something there."
"oh!"
"Aye, let me go and have a look too!" the prince said.
The emperor hesitated for a moment and patted his shoulder, "I will let you know when the matter comes to an end."
After the prince resigned, Concubine Li said: "Actually, it doesn't matter if the prince knows!"
"I just don't want him to know those ugly things that make people do evil for the time being!"
"But sooner or later you have to know."
"That's his grandfather."
…
In an abandoned palace, an old chamberlain was being held up by two chamberlains. He was tortured so hard that he could not find a good spot.
"explain!"
Yi Niang said coldly.
The emperor came in.
"I have met Your Majesty!" Everyone saluted.
"No courtesy!" The emperor stared at the old chamberlain, "Is that him?"
"Your Majesty, this person was working for Empress Wu back then." Yi Niang said, "I followed the investigation and found him."
The old chamberlain coughed, spat out blood-stained saliva, and said: "That afternoon, after the emperor and empress had dealt with the affairs of the court, they were preparing to have dinner. Someone said that the mutton soup made in the kitchen today was extremely delicious. Your Majesty was so moved that he added mutton soup to his dinner...
