The fireworks of Tokyo City are constantly shining in the sky, and the stars in the sky and the brilliance on the ground merge together, making it seem like heaven and earth, making people feel like a dream.
But in this dreamlike scenery, the atmosphere between Ye An, Chen Lin and Li Zunxu became inexplicably weird.
Ye An's words made Chen Lin and Li Zunxu puzzled. They didn't know why Ye An had such a determined tone.
They had been planning this move for a long time. Both of them were die-hard loyalists of Zhao Zhen and could not give up just because of Ye An's words, but they were also eager to know the reason why Ye An rejected their plan.
Chen Lin looked at Ye An suspiciously: "How can you be so sure that what we are doing is useless?" Following his words, Li Zunxu also stared at Ye An closely, hoping to get the answer from his mouth.
"Because all the rights of the saint come from the official family, Lu Wu's incident has become a great evil that I despise in the Song Dynasty! No one dares to take a step beyond the limit! Even with the current power and reputation of the saint, he does not dare to take this step
, once she ascends to the throne, she will definitely be criticized by the world, and may even be in danger of a mutiny! Then the perfect image she has established over the years will collapse, and she will be destroyed forever!"
Ye An's words made Cheng Lin and Li Zunxu shaken, and Ye An immediately said: "Just imagine, what does the saint want? It's just for power. The feeling of holding the power of the world has made her a little lost, but she also knows that once
If she crosses that invisible bottom line, everything will be wiped out. Do you think a saint would do this?"
Chen Lin and Li Zunxu looked at each other, and they suddenly felt that what Ye An said was very reasonable, but Li Zunxu still frowned and said: "Having been in a high position for a long time, the power is always there, even if the official reaches the age of pro-government, the saint will not delegate power to the official.
Home, what will happen then? Do we have to wait for a saint for a hundred years?!"
Ye An's eyes widened, and he suddenly understood the reason why Li Zunxu and Chen Lin did this. They were not worried that Liu E would become emperor, but they were worried that she would hold on to power for too long, and even affect Zhao Zhen's pro-government and the future of the Song Dynasty.
.
"Do you want the power of the Song Dynasty to be transferred to the officials smoothly, or will it be handed over to the officials after the chaos and turmoil? What kind of dynasty do you want the officials to take over?! Where are the ages of the saints, and the officials
After the family is crowned, the imperial power will surely return, so why should we care about such things?!"
Chen Lin was shocked and furious, lowering her voice and yelling: "You have wanted a saint to take power from the beginning!"
Ye An shrugged his shoulders indifferently and said with a smile: "Who do you think I, Ye An, am loyal to?" Before Chen Lin and Li Zunxu could answer, he thought to himself: "Saint? Official? Neither! What I finally want is the imperial dynasty!"
This is the world of Han Dynasty! What I want is stability! It is the stable transition of power, without the chaos of party strife. This is the most different thing between me and the scholar-bureaucrats! Therefore, they are all civil servants and military generals, and can be close to eunuchs and relatives.
Deep friendship! I am the most different person in the court, but I am also the most trustworthy person by the officials and saints! Do you want to know what the officials gave me? It is a jade belt!"
Li Zunxu was so shocked by Ye An's words that his color changed, while Chen Lin's gloomy old face seemed to be able to squeeze out water. They had all forgotten Ye An's identity in the palace. Even if the saint no longer wanted to see him, he was still the saint's most trusted person.
People, not to mention officials, treated Ye An like a teacher, and they missed him after not seeing him for a day!
"Don't you think Lan Daguan has been alienated from you recently? He is naturally leaning towards the official family, but have you ever thought about why he no longer strives for the official family to pursue Japanese pro-government? Because he sees the problem. Today, Brother Li
When you enter the palace with the eldest princess, Official Lan has already beaten you. How can a saint not know what you are thinking?! Don’t think that a woman’s mind is inferior to that of an emperor. On the contrary, if a woman is in charge of power, she may even be sharper than a man!
"
At this time, Li Zunxun's expression really changed, but Ye An's next words made Chen Lin also start to waver: "Do you think the saint has handed over the power of personal governance to the officials, and the officials can take charge of the world? Civil servants
It is right to assist the official family, but have you ever thought about whether civil servants will control the government while assisting the official family?! The official family is young, and their power is naturally not as powerful as that of the prime minister and the civil servants. Once a powerful official takes over, the consequences will be unimaginable!
If the imperial power is humiliated, what will happen to those who spy on the throne?! Stupid!"
Ye An's words penetrated all the falsehoods and made Chen Lin and Li Zunxu stunned. They had not thought about that much. They just wanted to let Zhao Zhen take charge early and gain the authority he deserved.
But Ye An sees more and farther. In a sense, he is Zhao Zhen's husband and his teacher, and he is more aware of his student's abilities.
Not talking about IQ, just talking about politics, he is not the kind of young emperor who will be famous forever. His understanding of rights and political maneuvering are still far behind.
Such a young official is not enough to assume the responsibility of an emperor. It would be fine if he does not understand history. Ye An knows a lot about Song history. He knows what kind of person Liu E is. Although she is greedy for power, she
She would not cross that red line, and had no chance to cross it. On the contrary, her leadership of the Song Dynasty was conducive to the progress of the dynasty.
With such a person moving Zhao Zhen to lay the foundation, it was too late for him to be happy, so why should he be in a hurry?
From this point of view, Chen Lin, Li Zunxu and even those who want Zhao Zhen to take charge earlier are extremely stupid. The emperor is also a profession to a certain extent, and the guidance of the courtiers is only on paper. Who is the most suitable person to teach?
Emperor? Who else besides the former emperor?
Why did ancient emperors leave notes on daily life and memorials for review? These errands are the best teaching materials for new emperors. Of course, the parts of daily notes that harm personal ethics are another matter.
In Ye An's opinion, Liu E is Zhao Zhen's best teacher. He should continue to learn from Liu E the ability to govern the country, the tactics in the court, the means to check and balance the courtiers, and even the methods of diplomacy, etc.
In a sense, these things are not as good as even Ye An's own. Just relying on Zhang Huaizheng, Wang Yuan is absolutely inferior to himself.
Under the sweet-scented osmanthus tree, Chen Lin and Li Zunxu pondered for a long time. Finally, it was Chen Lin who spoke first: "What Changsheng said makes sense, but this move must still be kept... as a complete preparation!"
Chen Lin's words were echoed by Li Zunxu: "Yes, if an official has the ability to personally govern, the saint should let the official personally govern!"
Ye An shrugged helplessly: "Whatever you want, I don't care, but Chen Lin, you can't implicate me. Now that you are in my house, I have been implicated. I am not an informer, but if the saint discovers anything unusual,
, I will also be implicated, don’t blame me for betraying you when the time comes.”
Chen Lin laughed loudly: "I never thought that you, Ye Changsheng, would be afraid sometimes?! Someone thought you were fearless!"
Ye An sneered and said: "What I'm afraid of is not the saint, let alone you, but the person hiding behind the scenes. There is still a force in the court that has never shown up. Ever since the assassination in Xiuyi Lane, he has been hiding in secret frequently.
Planning a conspiracy against me, assassination is only the next step, now you come to slander my reputation... Don't tell me that it's Qi Guogong Zhao Zong, he doesn't have that ability! He is just a chess piece, and you think about how you can use him as a
How capable must a chess piece be!"
Chen Lin was slightly startled, then frowned and said: "Zhao Zong said it is the clan, and the Imperial City Department cannot check it at will. As for the person behind Zhao Zong's statement, it is even harder to detect."
Li Zunxu said angrily: "Who can take advantage of the clan? How can such methods come from? Zhao Zong said, the two brothers Zhao Zongli were severely punished by the saint, and they dare to attack you?!"
Ye An and Chen Lin stopped talking. They both knew that the invisible enemy was the most terrifying thing.
